Chapter 370: Ironclad Ship Attack

"Idiot, rubbish!"

Charlemagne scolded Wells, he was supposed to go to harvest the battlefield, but he was beaten and lost his armor and was embarrassed.

"Your Excellency, those Orientals have a very magical weapon in their hands."

"Wells, don't make excuses for your failures, can their weapons, no matter how artifacts they are, compare to our firecrackers?"

"...... than our firebolts"

Wilston paused, and said weakly, "It's still ...... It's even better......"

"How is that possible?"

Charlemagne was furious and spat in Wales' face.

"It's true, Lord Charlemagne, their firearms...... It doesn't seem to need to be reloaded, it can be fired all the time, and the range is very long, it's incredible! ”

"Wells, are you kidding? The Torch does not need to be reloaded? ”

"Your Excellency Charlemagne, I really didn't lie to you, their firecrackers are terrifying, like ...... Like the devil, I now understand why the Prussian generals died in battle for no apparent reason, the Easterners are devils, they ...... It's all a bunch of devils......"

"Say no more, Wells, your cowardice will be contagious to the soldiers, and I now order you, no matter what means you use, to completely destroy those Orientals, or else you will see God yourself!"

Wells had a painful expression on his face, he didn't want to face the Ming army, but he had to go.

Because...... Charlemagne would really send him to God.

However, having seen the combat effectiveness of the Ming army with his own eyes, he no longer dared to attack head-on, so he had an idea and started a guerrilla war with the Ming army.

The two sides used the reefs on the island, you went back and forth, and fought for a day and a night, and still did not distinguish the winner.

Because this time, Wells learned to be obedient, first of all, he had to choose a complex terrain area, which could find cover at any time, and could not be used as a target.

Secondly, if you can't beat and run decisively, you will never love to fight.

If a position is lost, just change the place and fight again.

On the Golden Griffin, Charlemagne was sleeping.

The Ming army was already besieged on the island and was in no hurry to attack at this time.

Just let the Welsh hold the man down, and then look for an opportunity to annihilate it in one fell swoop.

Even if this Ming army is a hard nut to crack, it doesn't matter, there is no water source on this island, there is no food, and they are trapped to death!

So, Charlemagne slept comfortably.

In his sleep, he seemed to see Queen Dosia come to him with a romantic bouquet of red roses, meekly like a kitten......

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!"

Charlemagne opened his eyes and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you arguing about? ”

"Your Excellency, the Flying Shark reported that enemy ships have been found in the north, about sixty nautical miles, and there are more than fifty of them!"

"Whose ship, do you see clearly?"

Charlemagne suddenly became nervous, and he stopped thinking about the interruption of his dream.

"The Flying Shark is far away, I didn't see it clearly, according to the crew's description, it should be the Ming fleet."

"Order, the Flying Shark continues to investigate, pay close attention to the nearby waters!"

"Yes!"

Charlemagne put on his armor and went to the deck.

On the sea, the morning sun gradually rises, and the sea breeze blows on the face, like a kiss from Dosia, which is intoxicating.

"Inform all the ships, inform all the soldiers, the time has come for a decisive battle between the Eastern Roman Empire and the Ming fleet. Get ready for battle, polish your artillery and muskets, hoist your sails, and get ready for battle! ”

The order was swiftly conveyed, the ships shouted at each other, and all the soldiers were busy.

The Flying Shark had returned home, bringing back accurate news that a fleet of about fifty to sixty ships had indeed arrived on the sea, but they had dispersed fifty nautical miles from here.

Charlemagne smiled again on the corner of his mouth, if he faced fifty ships, he might have to think about whether to fight or not, but the other party was actually separated!

It seems that God is watching over Himself.

"Let's find out!"

"Yes!"

In less than two hours, the Flying Shark returned to the sea again.

This time, they brought back the exciting news that a large ship, with seven or eight small boats, was heading in its direction.

The other ships are far away, and if they want to support, it will take at least an hour.

Charlemagne couldn't help but laugh, seven or eight ships, an hour's time, enough!

However, the Flying Shark also brought back another piece of news, which was that the big ship seemed to be different from ordinary ships.

Charlemagne didn't pay attention to it, a ship is a ship, even if it is different, it is still a ship after all.

It's like two people, even if there is a huge disparity in strength, it is not easy for the stronger one to kill the weaker one.

Therefore, as long as it is a ship, no matter how advanced it is, it is impossible to treat one as ten or one as a hundred.

What's more, having killed three enemy ships with his own hands is no different at all.

When it comes to the advantages of the Ming army, that is, the firearms are somewhat powerful.

The fortifications that he had worked so hard to build were blown up by three medium-sized warships.

Not to mention the muskets, Wales fought a fierce battle with the Ming army with three times the number of troops, and the winner has not yet been decided.

The place where he is now is equivalent to a natural harbor, and the ships of the Ming army need to turn a corner to see themselves.

However, when they see themselves, it will be their time of death.

The process of waiting for the rabbit was both tense and exciting, and I don't know how long I waited, and finally, a huge mast appeared in view.

Due to the obscuration of the island, he could not see the ships of the Ming army now, only the masts slowly advancing.

"Fire!"

Charlemagne decisively stepped down and aimed his artillery at the front of the island.

The gunner lit the fuse, snorting white smoke.

This time was calculated accurately, and by the time the artillery was fired, it was the Ming army ship leaning out from behind the island.

That is, at the same time that the Ming army found itself, the artillery had already arrived.

Rumble!

Rumble!

The Golden Gryphon was the first to fire, and dozens of shells flew out like meteors.

At the same time, the ships of the Ming army finally sailed out from behind the island, revealing their true colors.

Big, too big!

This was Charlemagne's first impression of the ship in front of him.

He seemed to sense that something was wrong.

The other party seems to ...... Don't have a sail?

How does that move forward?

Just when he was wondering, the shell had already hit the target, and the next ......

What?

Charlemagne's hole suddenly enlarged, because he clearly saw that the shell hit the Ming ship, but there was no reaction in the slightest.

No way!

When pigs fly!

What's even more incredible is that the big black ship, under the sunlight, suddenly began to reflect dazzling light.

Charlemagne suddenly realized that this was ...... Armour......

The huge ship emitted billowing black smoke, like a steel monster, slowly opening its fangs.
