The main guns of all Iowa-class battleships are lightweight MK7 406 mm 50 times caliber guns, each triple main turret is operated by 77 officers and men, and the whole structure of the turret can be divided into six layers, namely the turret battle room, the rotating disk, the power room, the upper bomb supply room, the lower bomb supply room, and the medicine pack room.

However, now the personnel operating in the A main turret on the battleship BB63 are in the single digits, so even with the assistance of electrically driven loaders and bomb carriers, these rough embryos of the A turret that Luo Can hurried to load the shells took a long time to load.

Luo Can's use of the word "Minao" in his report to Zhao Yi to describe these rough embryos who were working in the main turret A did not mean to belittle them, in fact, these rammers only interned in the turret during the rotation of posts, and the work in the turret only accounted for part of their 225-day naval career.

“What？ Warning shots? With a 406 mm gun? The Temporary Turret Commander reaffirmed the order given by the Temporary Captain.

"Otherwise, your A-main turret is the only thing on this battleship that can hit other than a 12.7mm machine gun!" The interim first mate replied.

"But that bastard in the bomb supply room just now sent a high-explosive grenade!" The turret commander has picked himself up completely, and you can pack whatever people give.

"Oh, whatever, just don't hit it, that's what it means, warn it!" The temporary first mate didn't know which post he was fighting in, and obviously didn't know how powerful the high-explosive grenade fired from the 406-mm gun was.

Whatever? Don't be so hasty, my first mate! The ship on the opposite side has a displacement of more than 1,000 tons, and it is especially a merchant ship with no protection.

"Where?" The Temporary Sight Commander asks the Temporary Turret Commander.

"Shoot it in the same direction, don't go too far, you need it to know we're warning it." The temporary turret commander said that this thing himself was very sloppy.

"Do you want to change it to an armor-piercing bullet, the charge of the armor-piercing bullet warhead is only 18 kilograms, and the probability of an accident will be a little smaller!" The Temporary Sight Captain suggested.

"Don't change blindly, this turret has a total of seven floors, and there are only eight of us, and everyone has to go up and down with a cannonball. When you put on armor-piercing bullets, you don't need to be warned, the distance will be killed directly. The temporary turret commander said.

"Okay! Anyway, the big guy above is on top of the accident. "The temporary sight chief was also sloppy.

A group of interns who were sweating profusely because of the lack of personnel turned the turret in the direction of the Dutch merchant ship according to the parameters given by the fire control computer before, and the temporary sight chief thought to himself that this was a warning shot, I have to change the parameters, don't really jump to the bottom of the sea.

Rumble! The three 406mm guns of the A main turret at the top of the bow of the BB63 spewed out a dazzling orange-red ball, and the eight rough embryos in the main turret who came to make cameos were still shaking their eardrums in pain, although they wore earplugs and had large mouths.

"We seem to have three volleys!?" The Temporary Sight Commander asks the Temporary Turret Commander.

"Rub! Forgot about it, it was a salvo. The temporary turret commander shouted.

The officers and men of the two British warships near them were startled by the sudden loud noise, and they could not understand why the warship of the Royal Navy of the Great Song Dynasty was shooting at the Dutch merchant ship.

But soon they stopped wondering why Da Song did that, because the shocking scene caused by this salvo had already made their brains unable to think about other things.

Speaking of the Battle of Dadonggou in the First Wu Year, many people thought that the old witch had lost the silver of the Beiyang Fleet in the courtyard, which led to the Beiyang Fleet having to use solid bullets with sand counterweight in the confrontation with the Foot Basin Chicken Combined Fleet.

In fact, it is true that the Beiyang Fleet was stuck in military spending, but solid bullets with sand counterweight are actually the mainstream of the navy in this era. Except for the footbasin chicken adding its own "Seto gunpowder" to the warhead to wash the deck, only John Niu in his peak was arrogant enough to put black sorkin in the conventional warhead.

However, after witnessing this salvo of BB63, the British naval officers and men began to wonder if they had been using fake high-explosive warheads. That's called a high-explosive bomb, and the ship is so special to be lifted! Our cannonballs that can't even lift the sampan are a two-kick in front of the shells of the Great Song Navy!

The arrogant officers and men of John Bull found that the landing point of this round of salvo shells of the Great Song Navy was obviously not going towards the hull of the Dutch merchant ship, and its intention to warn was already obvious, although they did not know why the Great Song Navy did not choose the flag to warn the Dutch merchant ship.

The temporary sight chief who cleverly modified the parameters reported by the fire control computer really added to the snake this time, and everyone set the parameters according to the warning shot, and he changed it again.

As a result, the volley of shells fell between the close miss and the warning shot, and the Dutch merchant ship escaped the tragedy of being torn off the armor under the waterline by the huge water pressure brought by the near miss, but the large wave of three high-explosive grenades suddenly set off the fast-moving merchant ship with a displacement of only about 1,000 tons, and a large number of unsuspecting sailors fell into the water.

"God! What kind of shells are they using! The power of this explosion can lift a ship! Colonel Percy Scott's lieutenant didn't care about any etiquette, and exclaimed in front of his superior.

"I'm not surprised that their shells have such firepower, after all, they have mastered the technology to create such a huge steel behemoth of the sea, and it is not surprising that they have such achievements in the field of explosives. What I admire is the superb archery skills of those gunners, who can control the landing point of the shells so accurately without calibration, which is a sign of a strong navy! Colonel Percy Scott said.

If the rough boy who was the temporary sight commander heard the British fleet commander praise him so much, he would have blushed to the base of his neck. Ya is an ignorant grass people who blindly change the data, fortunately, the Dutch have a big life, otherwise I am afraid that this will be bombarded to the point that there is no scum left! If this thin-skinned merchant ship was directly hit by a 406-mm high-explosive grenade, it would not be a direct disintegration!

"I'll rub your uncle! Say okay warning shelling, give me a salvo! Luo Can was also scared out of a cold sweat.

People are just high-risk targets, and they haven't been convicted of attacking the Royal Navy of the Great Song Dynasty, so you are going to kill them all!

The waves raised by the three high-explosive grenades directly changed the course of the Dutch merchant ship, and BB63's purpose of warning it not to approach again was achieved. The Dutch, who had just passed away from the ghost gate, remembered to contact the British warship with the flag language, in fact, this cannot be blamed on the Dutch, according to the rules of their time, they did not enter the warning range of the warship before.

"The Dutch sent a message to the British delegation participating in the negotiations in Shimonoseki that the Japanese ronin in Shimonoseki had caused a riot/riot, and the British delegation had the two British warships rush back to Shimonoseki to meet them." Huang Xiaolei notified Luo Can, the temporary captain of BB63, through the radio.
