"Rush, rush, rush, rush in with me, grab money, grab food, rob girls~"

He wears a tricorne hat, his hair is braided into small braids, he wields a katana in his hand, and his thin waist is tightly tied.

Continuing down, she wears a bright red skirt and a pair of boots.

IN SHORT, COSPIAY BECAME A PIRATE CAPTAIN'S CONCUBINE.

With great excitement, he stood on the deck of the 'Guifei', the flagship of the Xuange Battalion fleet, and shouted excitedly in the direction of the port city.

In the position beside her, Hu Biao, God of Wealth, Wolf Qing and several others did not speak.

However, the excited expressions and eyes on their faces showed that their current mood was also quite hot at the moment.

Because from their current perspective, after looking through it with a telescope in their hands, they can see the port city and everything in it for 61 years.

Compared with the modern plane, Hu Biao's memory of the 'Pearl of the Orient'.

The port city of this year is very small in scale, and there are some indescribable messy tastes.

Only on both sides of Victoria Harbour did the Yin people build some European-style buildings, which are few in number and look a little more Xiangyang.

In the surrounding area, there are many low-rise wooden houses that should be inhabited by the common people of Daqing.

In terms of overall scale, it is not as large as the modern plane, and some slightly larger towns in the interior.

However, considering the history of the port city, it seems that such a situation has occurred, and it is not so difficult to understand.

Because this place is occupied and ceded by the Yin people, it only adds up to a total of about 20 years of history.

In the limited time, it seems that the Yin people have not had time to build such a prosperous city.

Another point is that the place where Daqing was initially targeted by the Yin people and wanted to occupy was actually a place in Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province; So in the first few years of occupying the port city, they didn't pay much attention to running it.

However, it was later discovered that Daqing refused to cede Zhoushan, which was not far from their money bag and Jiangnan, a wealthy place.

It was only then that we began to build the port city with peace of mind.

In the end, after a hundred years of development, it became that famous international metropolis.

Of course, the current prosperity of the port city is not prosperous or not, and it is not important to the current Hu Biao, who are not here to do business and tourism, but to do a vote.

Therefore, for them at present, the most important thing is how well the defense of the port city is, and whether their next battle is easy and smooth.

On this point, under the lens of the telescope in their hands, it can only be said that everything is very optimistic.

In their observations, on the hills near Victoria Harbour, the more famous Oriental Fort in the modern plane has not been built in this year.

For the defense of the port, the most important coastal defense batteries are now only the existence of three batteries: the Murray Battery, the Wellington Battery, and the Royal Battery.

In terms of the construction and configuration of these forts, the Yin army did not pay much attention to it.

According to intelligence, even the most powerful of the Murray batteries had only four 24-pounder front-loading smoothbore guns and one 10-inch mortar gun.

They are all old-fashioned guns that were dismantled from some Indian warships more than ten years ago, and they are really not very powerful in terms of power.

In addition, on the dock of Victoria Harbor, in addition to the many merchant ships stopped, part of the Far East Fleet of the Great Yin Empire also stopped there.

They are not quite a few in total, with more than 20 large and small ships.

It's just that the Far East Fleet of Dayin, among the many opponents that need to be dealt with in peacetime, there is not a single decent strength at sea, and the most advanced warships are not used at all.

That's why the most advanced of the Great Yin are the propeller-powered ironclad warships.

In Victoria's Secret, there is no one to be seen; The few steam warships are also the kind of small iron-hulled warships that use paddlewheel drive.

Therefore, most of the warships that Hu Biao and the others need to deal with at present are wooden warships that are driven by sails and are gradually being eliminated.

And when the loud alarm bell in Victoria Harbour rang one after another.

A large number of Yin troops rushed out of the barracks and rushed towards the battleships on the batteries and berths.

In a short time, the muzzles of the cannons in the battery were being adjusted, and the warships on the dock were also in a hurry to put away their anchors and raise their sails.

Should I say it or not, the quality of the Yin army, especially the quality of the navy, is really quite good.

Under such circumstances, the Battle of the Port City officially began.

As for what the outcome will be, some judgments made in the mind of the white-skinned man who participated in the battle before the battle began, are very telling,

"I am willing to swear in the name of my grandfather, these Yin Guoyan and their Far East Fleet will be completely finished today~"

Looking at the ones in front of him who were in action, in fact, showing a considerable level of the Great Yin Fleet, one of Lady Anne's loyal licking dogs, Daniel, the Dutchman,

In his mouth, he muttered something like this in a voice that only he could hear.

In the tone, it was unspeakable schadenfreude.

Mainly after more than two months, as a special instructor of the Xuange Battalion fleet, he has been leading a group of sailors to continue training at sea.

As a former major of the Dutch Navy, he is not qualified to enter even key areas such as the power cabin.

But it didn't hinder him at all, and after seeing some other things, he was sure from the perspective of a professional: these three warships of the Xuange battalion were almost an era ahead of the Far Eastern Fleet.

Coupled with the tactics formulated by the Xuange battalion, those Laipi-like tactics, there was no suspense in this battle.

As for why Daniel, why was he so happy to see the Yin man defeated?

Joke! Their identity as the overlord of the sea of the Dutch people was snatched away by these Yin people; So he doesn't have the slightest affection for these people......

******

After the battle began, the tactics used by the Xuange battalion were not as shouted from the concubine's mouth, and the three ironclad battleships rushed directly forward, relying on the thick skin and thick flesh of the Yin Army's Far East Fleet.

Those shouts are just the concubine's blind shouting.

At present, the main problem is that there are too many ships and more cannons on the side of the Yin fleet.

Although theoretically, the 32-pound pound rifled gun on the Yin fleet could only penetrate 285 mm of wrought iron armor.

For the Xuange Battalion fleet, the key parts have reached 380 mm thick armor, and it is impossible to break the defense at all.

But the theory is that this thing is only a theory, and if it doesn't really fight, it will take so many shots, and no one is sure how effective the ironclad battleship really will be.

Coupled with the large number of Yin fleets and artillery, the density of firepower once approached will be quite terrifying.

Because after the battle officially began, the three ironclad battleships did not advance, but turned around and opened a little distance between each other, and then the battleships crossed.

Prepare to use three 150 mm caliber Krupp naval guns to fire at the Yin fleet.

In such a toss, those Yin Army warships that were already driven by the wind and slowly sailed out of the dock opened fire on this side first.

Then the cannons on the turret, a few seconds slower, also opened fire.

Suddenly, at least thirty or forty rounds of solid iron lumps shrouded this side.

It's a pity that the movement is quite scary, but in fact, it didn't hit the target; The most recent cannonball also landed five or six meters away from the Guifei, causing an old high splash.

Directly put the wolf green who was standing behind the rangefinder and measuring the distance between the two sides.

It is also normal for such a result to occur.

At present, the distance between the two fleets has been stretched at least three miles; The distance is even farther away from those cannons on the casemates.

As a result, on a turret with a stable ground, the range of the Yin Army cannon was simply not enough.

The shells that flew out fell into the sea far away, and they did nothing except kill some innocent fish and shrimp.

The cannons on the Yin fleet could barely hit the three ironclad battleships of the Xuange battalion; But on the undulating sea, the quasi-head is a little difficult to explain.

It is precisely because he knows this very well that the wolf who is drenched in soup chicken can't take care of these little things at all.

He was doing something more important at the moment: first, at Hu Biao's request, he and the other two ships locked on to their first hunting target.

A large guy 'Compass' was built in '57 and had a displacement of 2,330 tons', according to the information.

It was a wooden-hulled sail warship with a thin layer of brass inlaid near and under the waterline, presumably to prevent barnacles from attaching.

Anyway, as long as you kill this thing, the requirement of 'sinking and capturing 3,000 tons' in the side quest of the Demon Capital Team can be completed by two-thirds in a moment.

After using the rangefinder, he calculated the distance between the 'Guifei' and the 'Compass' where he was.

Wolf Qing directly stuffed a piece of beef jerky the size of half a palm into his mouth, frowned and chewed a few times, and then swallowed it into his stomach.

With such a skill, he had successfully calculated the three 150-mm naval guns on the Guifei against the shooting of the 'Compass'.

Looking back, I glanced at the muzzle angles of several naval guns on the Guifei.

In this little brother's braincase, there are already several clear ballistic tracks; Immediately, under the trachea dantian, he shouted loudly at the top of his voice:

"No. 1 naval gun, adjust it 0.5 degrees upwards and 1 degree to the left.

No. 2 naval gun, adjust 1.5 degrees to the right, No. 3 naval gun 1 degree down, 2 degrees to the right~"

After the loud order reached their ears, the gunners did not dare to delay in the slightest, and hurriedly fine-tuned the direction of some guns under the auxiliary steam power.

Each of these 150 mm guns weighed 4 tons when they were bought.

In order to increase the defense and protect the operators of the cannon, they added a semi-open turret in the later stage, which was naturally even more impressive in weight.

So in these turrets, a small 15-horsepower steam engine was installed as auxiliary power.

It was thanks to this that the muzzle was quickly adjusted; In the midst of a loud roar, the three guns opened fire in unison, and each of them beckoned out a pointed shell.

It's not the kind of solid iron in the Yin Army's naval battle.

It should be noted that on the warships of the Western Navy, the largest caliber naval guns have reached 64 pounds.

After comparison, the 150 mm naval guns on the three ironclad battleships of the Xuange Battalion are undoubtedly much smaller in caliber, and they suffer a lot after the artillery battle.

What to do? Of course, in terms of shells, find a way to make up for it.

The pointed shell that has just been called out is a brand new ammunition made by Wolf Qing and Cross based on some related armor-piercing shell technologies in later generations, combined with the 150mm rear-loading rifled gun at hand.

There are two kinds of armor-piercing bullets and armor-piercing blasting bullets, but the specific difference is that the former is solid and has a stronger penetration ability.

The latter warhead is loaded with explosives and belongs to the type that explodes when it hits the target.

The three shells that had just been fired were all armor-piercing blasting shells of the latter; The main thing is that Wolf Qing thinks that this kind of ammunition alone is enough to penetrate the other party's hull.

This brand new shell uses smokeless nitrocellulose and explosives.

In history, it would take twenty or thirty years for this thing to be invented by the legal person Vieux.

Therefore, based on all of the above, the cannon tubes of the Xuange Battalion fleet may not be very thick, but the power is not small at all.

This is not! Soon after, this epoch-making shell showed its terrifying power.

Three new armor-piercing bullets with a roar that broke through the air flew a distance of more than three miles in the air.

One of them unfortunately missed, and after hitting the surface of the sea, the impact fuse unfortunately failed to detonate the ammunition and could only sink into the water.

A single shot flew over the deck, just grazing the arm of a sailman, and the hapless man's left arm exploded into a cloud of blood.

Then it continued to hit the mast and then exploded, resulting in an explosion that directly broke the mast.

By the way, a large number of sailors who were busy on the deck were directly put to the ground, not to mention, and a fire was caused.

The last shot hit the hull of the ship and even hit the waterline.

The degree of precision of the artillery between the two sides is not a concept at all.

After being shot, the 'Compass' was immediately blown out of a terrifying hole in the splash of sawdust, and the seawater immediately poured into it.

For a time, the accuracy of the artillery fire on both sides was not a concept at all.

In the face of such a serious injury, even if the Yin Army Damage Management Team on the 'Compass' is strong, it is quite difficult to plug such a big hole.

If it weren't for the lack of a watertight cabin, this big guy would have sunk directly.

Seeing this, everyone on the concubine suddenly thundered with joy.

And Daniel, the Dutch man, after seeing such a scene, was terrifyingly calm on his expression, and he couldn't see the slightest excitement.

Indeed, what is there to be surprised about?

Long before the battle began, he had anticipated such an outcome......

Compared to the Guifei, which was about ten seconds late, and not far from the adjacent Kick and Fenghuahui, the two ironclad battleships finally fired.

The reason why this is so is mainly because the sights above them are the God of Wealth and the Cross.

Compared with the wolf Qing who has a 'mutilated intelligent assistance chip' installed in the braincase, the two are naturally a lot worse in computing power.

But then again, the mathematical ability of the two is quite powerful at the moment.

At least as the great yin of the empire on which the sun never sets, the sight of the battleship is definitely not at the level of two people.

You must know that the God of Wealth has a CPA, that is, a certified public accountant certificate in the modern plane; This certificate alone shows that her ability in mathematics is also one of the top in the team.

If it's a cross, it's also good as an engineering man.

When she hit the 'Compass', the girl was lying on the rangefinder, and she was quickly calculating with words in her mouth.

Even though she, like the concubine, cosplayed in the form of a pirate female captain, and even wore a leather eye patch and dressed up as a one-eyed dragon.

But at the moment, under the appearance of unusually focused.

For a while, where was there still the scumbag girl who was twisted into the air in this mission.

Wait until the three cannons that have been adjusted on the Kick Horn under her command to fire; I don't know if the ballistics calculated by Xiaomei, the god of wealth, are really accurate, or if her luck is really good.

Anyway, three shells were hailed out, two of which missed and one hit the waterline of the Compass.

In the huge explosion, another big hole appeared in the hull of the large battleship of more than 2,300 tons, next to the water.

Soon after, the ship was noticeably tilted a little because of the water entering one side.

Only the cross brother who commanded the cannon sight on the Fenghua Hui, all three shells missed one by one.

Originally, in such a long-distance artillery battle, when the hit rate was only one or two percent, it was normal for the shells to be missed.

The problem is that compared to the brilliant results caused by these two teammates, Wolf Qing and God of Wealth.

Although Cross is a half-rookie in the team, he doesn't want to lose face?

In the midst of swearing, he shouted for the gunners to hurry up and reload, ready for another round of shelling; He didn't believe it, and he couldn't hit the target.

It's just that before the gunners on the Fenghuahui began to load, the three battleships were under the fate of Hu Biao again.

Relying on the powerful drive of the propeller, it moved a little further to the rear.

As for the merchant ships they had captured, they had already sailed far away from such an area, and they had no intention of participating in this battle at all.

Because of Hu Biao's tactics, it is also simple to say:

The main thing is to rely on their own ship, stronger defense, more powerful attack, and better observation equipment; There are also spectators who crush the general mathematical and ballistic calculation skills, and open up the distance and bombard the opponent.

Like walking a dog, knock out the Far Eastern Fleet of the Great Yin little by little......
