Chapter 423: Lord Ye broke the sky with one word, multi-stage rockets prepared for war, and Wang Baobao was the master of Daming!
"I've aimed at the enemy ships that are rising."
"Fire!"
In fact, on the deck of the handsome ship called the 'three-masted gunboat',
As soon as the artillery observer on the left gave the order, the artillerymen began to take aim separately.
The window used to extend the barrel out of the female wall is much wider than the barrel, which gives the artilleryman some free aiming authority.
After all, it is on a moving ship, bombarding a moving target, and it is not possible to not give them such permission.
Whether the cannon can hit or not depends on the experience of the aiming gunner, in addition to the merit of the distance observer.
Obviously, these newly formed navies did not have much experience, especially when they moved sideways and attacked targets moving in a straight line.
But even with little experience, twenty shells hit ten.
Just these ten shells, the three warships of the Southern Dynasty of the Japanese Kingdom that had just left the port were directly lying on the seabed!
"Well done!"
"Tell the artillerymen that they don't have to blame themselves for wasting ten shells, that they can hit ten rounds in the first real battle, which is already good."
"When they can hit all 20 shots, and when the battle is over, the commander will reward each of them with ten shots."
"Not only the left artillery, but also the right artillery!"
Wang Baobao stood on top of the high pavilion of the commander, watching their results, watching the Japanese ship being smashed out of the big hole, watching the sea water rushing into the cabin, and watching the Japanese soldiers quickly launch into the water, he couldn't help but want to be bold!
When the soldiers heard this, they were also very positive.
It's not just for the sake of the ten yuan bonus, they don't know how, anyway, as soon as they saw the Japanese soldiers being bombarded, as soon as they heard the screams of the Japanese soldiers, they felt extremely comfortable.
Even they can't explain why it's so comfortable!
It's much more refreshing than holding a girl and drinking flower wine!
"Quick, reload gunpowder."
"Be quick, hurry up and fill me with gunpowder."
“.”
The soldiers were so active that the gunners in charge of loading the gunpowder were already very fast, but the gunners still felt that they were slow.
In this way, they bombarded several rounds before they finally managed to hit all 20 shells on the four warships of the Southern Dynasty of the Japanese Kingdom.
After the technique of the artillery on the left side was trained, Wang Baobao ordered again: "The battleship on the right side of the dock of the Southern Dynasty of the Wa Kingdom has been successfully dispatched. ”
"Give the order to the power compartment, retreat sharply, open the distance, and then fill the rudder on the right, and prepare for artillery on the right."
Almost at the same time, the bell in the power compartment rang rhythmically.
In the artificial power cabin,
The captain in charge of beating the drum said loudly: "Don't move on the left side, paddle on the right side, and make an emergency turn." ”
"Once the bow is straightened, sail at full speed!"
As soon as the words fell, his thick arms began to beat their war drums rhythmically.
At this moment, this huge battleship is a huge dragon boat!
They must win this dragon boat race!
The oarsmen, inspired by the drums of war, made the boat turn quickly.
Immediately after that, they should paddle in both directions, and with the addition of pedal keels, the two power systems are quickly output.
But this can't be blindly fast, it must be fast with a unified rhythm and frequency, only the rhythm and frequency are as unified as possible, so that the speed of the ship can be mentioned as fast as possible, and at the same time, the hull is relatively stable.
Moving at high speed and the wind is in a chaotic direction, whoever has the most stable boat has a better chance of hitting the opponent.
In order for them to have a unified rhythm, Ye Qing also invited a coach for them!
Not bad
The drummer of each ship's cabin master is a veteran dragon boat drummer.
Every Dragon Boat Festival when the dragon boat race is held, the oarsmen will be led by the drummer, shouting the trumpet, joining the drum, and paddling rhythmically at the same time to achieve the best rowing effect.
It's the same now, whether it's paddling or pedaling the 'self-propelled keel rollover', they all shout trumpets, beat the drums, and output rhythmically at the same time.
On the fighting ships of the Southern Dynasty of the Wa Kingdom,
Their captain, looking at the scene in front of him, was directly stunned.
"How is that possible?"
"One ship tops four of us, and bread and iron, how can such a bulky guy be so fast?"
"Outflank, outflank!"
"Stupid, you can't catch up with it, and you are still outflanking?"
"Look, he's turning sharply again, and he's facing us sideways."
On the deck of the front fighting ship, the captain, under the reminder of the vice admiral, looked at the scene in front of him, looked at the so many gun barrels sticking out, and his eyes widened directly.
He shouted, "Disperse, disperse on both sides." ”
The adjutant also shouted: "Our ship is not as nimble as it is, and if it wants to turn sharply, it must slow down." ”
"Slowdowns have to be dispersed!"
On the handsome ship where Wang Baobao was,
He looked at the fleet of the Southern Dynasty of the Wa Kingdom within range, and began to slow down and turn to both sides, but his eyes narrowed slightly.
In his opinion, the best chance is when the enemy ship begins to turn, but when the turn is not complete.
At this time, the enemy ships moved the slowest to move, and the exposed strike points were like hitting a snake seven inches and hitting a person to the waist.
The waist of the striking ship is much greater than hitting the bow of the ship, both the probability of hitting and sinking, and the probability of hitting the bow!
"Now, fire!"
In the next moment, twenty solid shells drew a parabola dragging a black wake cloud in the air.
In the first round of shelling, still not all of them hit, but only a few shells made a huge splash.
Of course, there are also a lot of marine fish!
After a few rounds, the artillery on the right also hit all twenty shells.
After several rounds of artillery bombardment, seven enemy ships were sunk one after another.
And the Japanese soldiers on these seven enemy ships were either killed directly by the shelling, or they were still fluttering in the sea.
Yes, they are all master swimmers!
But this is not a river, nor is it an offshore shallow, so whether you can swim or not and whether you drown or not has little to do with it.
They all have the same result, even if they don't drown now, they will be pursued, and their own country's warships will be swept to the bottom.
Wang Baobao looked at this scene, still staring like a torch and not saying a word.
He just secretly said in his heart: "The seeds of terror should be planted." ”
"The next thing I want to do is to let the seeds of fear take root in their hearts!"
Thinking of this, he decisively ordered: "The bow of the ship is outward, evacuate quickly." ”
Soon, the bow of the ship was aimed in the direction they had come, and it quickly moved away from the sea, like a sneak attacker who ran after a fight.
"Yaga!"
"Chase, chase me!"
“.”
At this moment, the navy of the Japanese and southern dynasties was stationed in the port, and there was no longer a single ship parked in the port.
Except for the dozen or so ships that were sunk, all of them had successfully gone to sea and tried their best to pursue Wang Baobao's handsome ships.
After all, the Southern Dynasty of the Wa Kingdom had hundreds of imitation Tang fighting ships, and no matter how powerful Wang Baobao's handsome ships were, they could not annihilate all of these Japanese fighting ships in the port.
The generals of the ships of the Southern Dynasty of the Japanese Kingdom gritted their teeth in anger when they saw that they could not catch up with the stern of the enemy ships, and at the trebuchets and crossbow beds on their ships that did not have enough range.
But in addition to being angry, they can also be regarded as seeing the power of the Ming warship.
"Is this the navy of the Ming Dynasty?"
"No matter how much we learn, we are so much worse than them."
"A handsome ship, just like this, destroy more than a dozen of our ships!"
“.”
As Wang Baobao expected, his exclusive wolf style of play did plant the seeds of fear in their hearts.
But at the same time, the seeds of greed are also planted!
Greedy for the Ming Dynasty's naval shipbuilding technology, greedy for everything in this country that has become the center of the world with its strength!
At this moment, the adjutant suddenly shouted to Wang Baobao: "Wang Shuai, the stern gunner said, can you slow down a little and put the enemy ship into their range." ”
"They said that the bow artillery and the artillery on both sides of the ship had fired, and they hadn't fired a single shot!"
When Wang Baobao heard this, he realized that he had made a mistake.
He really didn't do it well, and actually ignored the stern artillery directly, so that he gave the aft artillery the impression that he was a stepmother.
Wang Baobao looked at the references on both sides of the bay, and immediately ordered: "Reduce the speed of the boat, put them into the range of our stern artillery, let them hit two rounds and then open the distance." ”
"Remember, control the distance between the two sides, and don't let their long-range weapons take advantage of them!"
The adjutant general immediately clenched his fists: "The last general will take the order!" ”
A moment later, he heard the sound of cannon fire coming from the stern of the ship, the breaking of enemy ships, and the wailing of enemy soldiers falling into the water.
And, of course, the cheers of the stern artillerymen.
At the same time, the five-story cabin was gradually decreasing, and all kinds of soldiers on the five-story foredeck also raised opinions.
The first deck is the largest, and it is the largest number of melee soldiers, except for the artillery that surrounds it and is responsible for forty-eight cannons.
On the foredeck of the upper four floors, there are archers, god archers, and the top two layers of the 'Fire Dragon Out of the Water' multi-level rocketeers!
They saw that the artillerymen had already made meritorious contributions, and they also had the urge to take the plunge.
Wang Baobao's soldiers who were full of fighting spirit were also very satisfied, but he still looked serious on the surface.
He looked at the coastal references on both sides again, as well as his own warships on the opposite side, and immediately ordered: "Chuan Ben Shuai ordered,"
"Stop advancing, quickly turn sideways to the battleship, drop anchor and prepare for battle!"
As soon as Wang Baobao's voice fell, the deputy general was directly stunned.
If you know where they are now, it happens to be the central part of the bay.
If they break down at this time and fight alone, it really gives the enemy a chance to surround them.
But on second thought, this world-famous marshal would not be so reckless.
This marshal from the grasslands outside the Guan, although his style of play is fierce, he is definitely not a brainless reckless.
Thinking of this, he didn't think much about it anymore, and directly gave the order.
After breaking down, the deputy general ran back and said: "Wang Shuai, let's raise the flag!" (Naval Commander's Flag: Dedicated to bringing fleets together for a decisive battle)
Wang Baobao didn't pay attention to it, just looked at the ships of the Southern Dynasty in front of him, and then counted silently in his heart: "Ten, nine, eighty-one!" ”
Just when he counted to one, the hundreds of fighting ships of the Southern Dynasty of the Japanese Kingdom that had been chasing after him all stopped on the sea.
Yes, they all broke down.
On the blue army marshal ship, the soldiers all looked at each other, they really couldn't understand what these Japanese generals thought.
It stands to reason that they should take the opportunity to encircle, but not only did they not take the opportunity to encircle, but they also hurriedly dropped anchor and stopped the ship outside the range of the cannon?
The adjutant general hurriedly asked, "Wang Shuai, what's wrong with them?" ”
Wang Baobao still looked ahead, but said with a firm gaze: "Because, fear! ”
Above the harbor of the Vulture,
Chiba Chongwu, who was still dripping with water on his body, and his lieutenant general looked at this scene and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Chiba Chongwu nodded and said, "Admiral Yamamoto Kazuki, who is worthy of his title of a naval family, did not rush forward. ”
The adjutant general was puzzled: "Why can't you rush forward?" ”
Chiba Chongwu's eyes just jumped slightly, and he pointed into the distance and said, "Do you think that the enemy has so many warships, why are they all anchored at the mouth of the bay?" ”
"If we were to surround this handsome ship, they wouldn't rush over?"
"We've been tricked!"
"When our whole army leaves the port, we have already been tricked!"
"I can't be fooled anymore, I can only stop there and improvise!"
The lieutenants listened to Chiba Chongwu's explanation, and then nodded in understanding.
At this moment, Chiba Chongwu hurriedly said to the deputy generals: "Hurry back to the Ghost Emperor." ”
"These navies are not our reinforcements, but the reinforcements invited by the Northern Dynasties, and the news of the war here will soon be known by the Northern Dynasties."
"At that time, they will definitely attack my Nara on land."
"You must lead the troops to defend it!"
"After the victory here, I will immediately bring troops to help!"
Immediately afterwards, he looked at him like a torch and said: "As long as we don't continue to win, we will definitely win." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped onto the only boat that had not left the harbor to see him over.
The lieutenants just bowed to him and hurried back.
At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was on the deputy marshal's ship, couldn't calm down.
He took Ye Qing's monoculars, looked at the handsome ship anchored in the center of the bay, and looked at the enemy fleet in front of the handsome ship that had formed a battle formation, and suddenly had an illusion.
He only felt that these people were like soldiers standing on the wall of Yanmen Pass.
And the lonely giant battleship is a general outside Yanmen Pass, who is in charge of the pass.
As for the enemy fleet on the opposite side, it is the enemy army outside the Guanxi in the past!
It's just that the leader of the enemy army outside the gate back then has now become the commander of the navy for the Ming Dynasty.
But because of this, he is extremely worried.
He didn't want to die in front of him just like this in front of the 'strange man in the world' who had defected to him with great difficulty.
"What is he doing?"
"What the hell is he trying to do?"
"He rushed over alone, and it was nothing more than two purposes!"
"First, he is to show the strength of the Ming warship and make the other party afraid!"
"Second, he is also trying to lure the snake out of the hole!"
"Now that he has achieved both of his goals, he can either directly lure the enemy over, or he should raise the 'swaggering flag' and let us rush over!"
"But he just anchored between the two armies, what else does he want to do?"
"Isn't he afraid that the enemy will take advantage of the opportunity to surround him?"
Xu Da, Mao Xiang and Zhu Di, listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's analysis, also frowned secretly.
Zhu Yuanzhang's temper is a little anxious, but as the commander of the Poyang Lake naval battle, he is still very successful in this regard.
I have to say that his analysis is very correct!
And at this very moment,
Ye Qing snatched his monoculars and said, "You are still very conscious, hurry up and return it to me." ”
Ye Qing looked at the lonely Ming Marshal ship, as well as the hundreds of enemy ships of the Japanese Kingdom that did not dare to surround in front and said, "But they didn't surround it!" ”
"It's not,"
"They were also anchored out of the range of the cannon!"
As soon as Ye Qing's voice fell, Zhu Yuanzhang and the others realized that the other party could obviously take the opportunity to surround them, but they did not surround them.
Thinking of this, several people looked at Ye Qing again, looking forward to his answer.
But Ye Qing didn't answer, he just looked straight at the ship through the monoculars, looking like he was going to be a husband, the handsome ship where Wang Baobao was!
meanwhile
The scene in his mind also appeared again, Wang Baobao chatted with him privately about tactics!
