After Yang Qiu received the order, he immediately took action and went to gather people to prepare the materials that needed to be used. He was accompanied by representatives of other ships who had come to the meeting. These representatives must learn Yang Qiu's methods in the shortest possible time, and then return to their own warships to draw gourds and teach the soldiers of their own ships.

In order to avoid startling the grass and snakes, and to ensure that all the Soochow "water ghosts" are left, the final action must be carried out by six warships together, so the time is urgent. The main waste of time lies in the spread of knowledge and the process of rowing back to their ships by representatives of the remaining five warships.

The time to actually use the modification of underwater bombs is actually very short, because this modification is so easy. To make an underwater bomb, you first need a sealed container. There are a lot of bottles and cans on the ship, but there are not many that can be effectively sealed, after all, this is not the era of screw caps flying all over the sky in later generations.

Yang Qiu skipped the stage of rummaging around the ship for sealed containers, and immediately decided to directly use mines to transform them. There are a lot of mines in reserve on the ship, some are big and some are small, the small ones are as big as winter melons, which can hold more than ten catties of fire ~ medicine, the big ones are the size of wine barrels, they can hold dozens of catties of fire ~ medicine, and even a small number of oversized models can hold hundreds of catties of fire ~ medicine.

The reason why Yang Qiu chose mines for transformation was mainly to consider the problem of sealing. If the seal is not good, as soon as the bomb is thrown into the water, the lead is wet with water, then what is the use? The covers of the mines are threaded, and then padded with several layers of waterproof oilcloth, as long as the cover is tightened, it can ensure that the river water can not wet the fire ~ medicine and the lead inside.

The method of transformation is very simple, first pour out all the gun~ powder inside, then weigh out two catties and put it back, and then fill in some iron sand to increase the weight of the underwater bomb to ensure that the bomb can sink when thrown into the water, and finally cut the lead wire to the required length to complete.

For example, the length of the lead is carefully calculated by Yang Qiu, which can ensure that the underwater bomb sinks to the appropriate depth and detonates. Yang Qiu asked every two soldiers to be in a group, responsible for fiddling ~ getting an underwater bomb, and the two worked together, and the whole transformation process only took one or two minutes.

However, Yang Qiu's calculation and demonstration process took a few minutes longer. The complicated thing is the calculation process, and after the calculation is completed, the subsequent work can be understood at a glance, so Yang Qiu only

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) was a demonstration, and the soldiers around him and the representatives of the other ships learned it.

After the representatives of the other ships learned, they immediately brought the parameters calculated by Yang Qiu (fire ~ drug amount, lead length, iron sand weight, etc.), returned to their own ships as quickly as possible, and then organized personnel to implement the plan.

Although everyone has tried to lighten their steps and speak softly, there are still some people in the "water ghosts" of Soochow at the bottom of the boat who notice the abnormality. These are experienced old "water ghosts".

Although they sensed that something was wrong on the ship, they could not retreat without permission, and could only report the situation to the captain while they were floating to breathe. At first, the captain refused to retreat, after all, this was almost the last chance for the Soochow naval army. If they can't scuttle these super battleships tonight, who knows if they will break through Soochow's defense line tomorrow.

Although this line of defense is strong, it seems almost insoluble to the people of Eastern Wu, but since Guan Gong dares to attack, it means that he must have a way to break through it. How could a person like Guan Gong, who had fought all his life, fight an uncertain battle, he must have planned and then acted, and he must have thought of a way to clear the reef.

If the reef at the bottom of this section of the river is cleared, the entire Yangtze River waterway will no longer be in danger to defend, and the Jingzhou Navy can go straight down the river to build a business, and the destruction of the Wu State is imminent. It was with this in mind that the generals of the Soochow Navy had this in mind, so they had tonight's action.

They realized that danger was coming, so they were so eager to carry out this plan tonight, even planning to prevent twelve enemy warships from seeing the sun tomorrow at any cost. That's why the captain is reluctant to give up.

He was given the order to scuttle the enemy's super-battleship even at the expense of all the "water ghosts". Without these super warships, the strength of the Jingzhou Navy has dropped by half. At that time, even if the reef is cleared, in the face of the Jingzhou naval army, which has suffered a great loss in strength, the Dongwu naval army will be able to resist one or two.

However, as more and more old "water ghosts" reported to him that there was an abnormality on the ship, the captain gradually became calm. He is not afraid of sacrifice, but he can't let these "water ghosts" sacrifice in vain. These are the essence of the Soochow Naval Army, and it is very difficult to cultivate.

If you can scuttle these enemy ships and find them, they will be discovered, but the current situation is that the enemy ships are still impregnable

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page), although there are reports of chiseling off some debris, but such a small debris is still far from being chiseled.

In other words, if you don't retreat now, it is likely that these water ghosts will be sacrificed in vain. After much deliberation, the captain made a difficult decision and ordered everyone to be gathered and prepare to retreat. Unfortunately, his order was given too late.

A lot of Jingzhou Navy soldiers suddenly appeared on the sides of the six cement warships, which made the captain's pupils dilated not far away in the dark, and he was finally sure that his people had really been discovered.

He didn't notice that among these Jingzhou sailors standing densely on the side of the city, there were two different people every about five meters. These two unusual people are the soldiers who were in charge of modifying underwater bombs just now.

One of them is holding a watermelon-sized underwater bomb, and the other is holding a torch. The two soldiers formed a bombing squad to drop underwater bombs, while the other soldiers standing around them were armed with bows and arrows, ready to beat the water dogs.

Coordinated by the light signal, the bombing teams of the six battleships acted together, and the soldiers armed with torches quickly lit the fuse and then tightened the lid of the underwater bomb. When he had completed this qiē, the soldier holding the underwater bomb hurriedly threw it out of the side of the ship, and the bomb fell into the water in a free-fall motion about a meter or two away from the hull.

This qiē was all planned in advance, and when Yang Qiu calculated the length of the lead, he had already calculated the time required for them to point the lead, twist the lid, throw the bomb, and other actions. The soldiers were also told that these maneuvers must be performed strictly at this speed, otherwise their lives would be in danger.

Fortunately, these soldiers are highly trained people, they are accustomed to obeying orders, and they are clean and clean at completing these movements, and there is absolutely no mud and water. So, these underwater bombs were sealed smoothly and dropped into the water on time.

At this time, the captain of the "water ghost" team of Soochow had already blown the bamboo whistle in his mouth. Special forces like them, who carry out secret missions at night, have a requirement to be silent throughout the operation, not to mention blowing a bamboo whistle, and even if they speak, they must keep their voices as low as possible. Now blowing the piercing bamboo whistle so uncharacteristically, there is only one possibility: our whereabouts have been exposed~ exposed, and all of us urgently retreat.
