Chapter 133: Bloody Battle
At this time, the fleets of the two gangs also completed the encirclement, because the sailors and the Japanese were intertwined, for fear of accidental damage, they put away the artillery and began to shrink rapidly, and everyone held their weapons and prepared for close combat.
Boom, there was a loud bang, everyone staggered under their feet, and the battleship where the cloud was located was the first to collide with the Japanese ship. The bow of the ship, wrapped in iron plates, was embedded in the hull of the other party's ship, and it almost hit it in two.
The sea wolf howled and jumped into the enemy ship, where he had stood with his sword in his hand since the beginning of the battle, and had not seen him dodge at all, when he had struck the enemy like a tiger out of a cage.
Yun knew that he was seriously injured and was afraid that he would lose and jumped over the side of the ship, opposite to the swarming Japanese Kou, the sea wolf had rushed into the crowd and could not see his figure, only to see the continuous stump and broken arm thrown away, and the screams of the Japanese Kou came, proving that he was still fighting hard.
Yun didn't have time to meet the enemy, and the opposite wolf slashed at the top of his head, but Yun only leaned back slightly to avoid the opponent's edge, and then raised his leg and kicked him in the wrist. There was a sound of bones shattering, and he kicked the waka's wrist bone, and he rushed forward without pause, pressing his right knee against the waka's lower abdomen. The widow snorted, clutched his stomach, hunched over, and was grabbed by the clouds by the hair and slashed his neck. Blood gushed out, and the body fell to the side. And he immediately confronted the other would-be robbers......
The battle continued, and both sides were red-eyed, and the sound of weapons crashing and popping into flesh was heard incessantly. More of the Sea Sand Gang rushed up and joined the battle, and people kept screaming and falling into the sea, the deck under their feet was covered with blood, and it was wet and slippery to step on......
Pulling the steel knife out of the enemy's lower abdomen, Yun Yun couldn't remember how many would-be would-be robbers he had killed, but he felt that there were fewer and fewer enemies around him.
At this time, the sea wolf rushed out of nowhere with a scorched black face, and shouted loudly: "Go back to the ship, all go back to the boat!"
The members of the Haisha Gang apparently cooperated very well, and quickly broke away from the enemy and jumped towards their own ships. Yun didn't dare to delay, cut down a widow and jumped back on the boat, and everyone used bamboo poles to push the enemy ship away.
The Japanese on the opposite ship were a little puzzled, wondering why these people had the advantage and suddenly retreated. But they soon understood, and after hearing a muffled sound, the bilge of the ship swelled strangely, as if suddenly it had become a fat man. Then a violent explosion occurred, and the ship was instantly reduced to splinters, burning and sinking. Burning planks continued to fall from the sky and smash beside everyone, but the sea wolf did not dodge, standing on the bow of the ship and laughing wildly: "Lao Tzu set fire to the powder magazine of the dog day and blew up you bastards." Fight with Lao Tzu and see how you die!hahaha......" was so frightened that his subordinates hurriedly held up a huge shield for him.
And the same scene is constantly staged in this sea area, the difference is that some of the heavy damage is the Japanese ship, and some are the Ming fleet. People seem to be red-eyed, completely disregarding life and death, and the scenes of dying together can be seen everywhere.
The ironclad ship in the cloud knocked one of the Japanese ships and capsized, and the cannon fired in a volley that instantly knocked the other Japanese ship into a sieve. The sea wolf, a war maniac, didn't care to open fire in the face of a mixture of enemies and enemies, and within an hour, this was already the sixth ship they had sunk. There were also leaks and smoke billowing from everywhere, and flames rose in many places.
The gang was tired of fighting the fire everywhere, and the sea wolf was still standing on the bow of the boat, shouting and gesturing: "Sink these turtle sons, hit! haha" Unaware that their ship was about to fall apart......
At this moment, Kojiro is sitting in the flagship expressionlessly, as the leader of the largest group of Japanese robbers, he has still maintained his true colors as a ronin all these years. At the age of about fifty, he has a burly figure, dark skin, a stompy head, and a fierce face.
From the age of fourteen to the smuggling ship as a crew member to the current group leader, he has overcome many storms over the years, but this time he has a faint foreboding. He was not afraid of the Ming navy, and the accumulation of wealth over the years had made his warships stronger and more ferocious, and through several recent integrations, he had become equal in numbers to the sailors. But now he realizes that he is not just fighting against an army, but against a country, a people.
The all-out participation of the two gangs in the battle has made him lose his advantage, and the detailed information has deprived him of the opportunity to hide. The early morning wave of attacks caught him off guard, and within a quarter of an hour he had lost thirty percent of his vital strength. The sailor was obviously well prepared, and even the tactics seemed to have been determined in advance, but now that he was encircled, and the team was now entangled with gouging, he couldn't evacuate calmly.
It seems that this defeat is a foregone conclusion, and there can be no further hesitation. Kojiro stood up, and the leaders kneeling beside him straightened up with a shock.
"Order Yamamoto, let him drag the main force of the naval division, try to ram and destroy the enemy ship, and if necessary, he can blow himself up, and be sure to hold out for half an hour. The others followed me from the right side and hurried back to Japanese waters. If a ship is too badly damaged or incapacitated, stop the enemy on the spot, be sure to hold the enemy for a moment or three to buy time for the main force. ”
"My lord. A leader had a gloomy face: "Once this happens, Yamamoto-kun is afraid that there will be more than one luck!"
"Hmph, if you have an opinion, you can carry out the order on behalf of Yamamoto, and if you don't want to, keep your mouth shut. Tell Yamamoto that the time has come to be loyal to the organization and that we will take care of his family. Go ahead. ”
With a wave of his hand, Kojiro had his own herald in a small boat to relay the order to his subordinates, while the other ships, led by the flagship, quickly turned around and tried to break out of the entanglement of the sailors to the right.
In a few moments, nearly 30 large and small ships reflexively rushed into the cluster of sailors, and collided with them fatally. Many of the ships even set fire to the powder magazines, and the violent explosion spread throughout the sea, and the burning and sinking ships successfully blocked the sailors' route. However, the main force of the Japanese invaders quickly advanced towards the area defended by the Haisha Gang.
The Haisha Gang soon discovered the enemy's intentions and tried to break away from the battle and re-establish the defensive line. The fishing gang also divided most of their men to make a detour to prepare for the response, and the naval fleet also successfully solved the enemy's obstruction and smashed through the burning wreckage of the Japanese boat, biting the tail of the Japanese robber.
But watching the fleet of the Japanese invaders frantically under the leadership of the flagship, the Haisha Gang knew that the time had come to test themselves, and whether they could successfully hold the line of defense was the key to the total annihilation of the Japanese invaders.
The flagship of the sea dragon immediately raised the flag, and the fleet of the sea sand gang began to shrink intensively, and dozens of warships abandoned the ring encirclement and lined up parallel on the sea surface, a total of three layers. Each ship gave up a position to the ships behind it to attack. The last layer began to drop anchor, ready to use itself as a shield as the last line of defense to block the Japanese from breaking through......
The flagships of the Wokos began to slow down, and the medium-sized ships on either side flanked out like wild dogs, attacking from all angles, trying to open the gap.
The ironclad ships of the Sea Sand Gang took the lead in firing, followed by a volley of cannonballs, which whizzed across the entire water. At the same time, more than 30 Japanese ships were hit, but instead of saving themselves, they rushed over at an accelerated pace, did not aim at all, and fired their cannons indiscriminately. The intention is very obvious, that is, to disrupt the formation of the Haisha Gang at any cost.
The first layer of defensive ships immediately rushed out to fight with the Japanese invaders, not giving them a chance to storm the group. The second layer of battleships, which were all the main class, began to press up slowly, constantly firing and preparing for impact.
The battleship where the clouds were located rushed to the front as the vanguard of the first echelon, and the sea wolf didn't care about the ships that were still smoking and kept an eye on Kojiro's flagship Okada as soon as they came up. The fleet of the Japanese invaders immediately divided into more than a dozen ships to block it, and Hai Long, fearing that his brother would lose, ordered the entire line to be pressed.
After a round of shelling, both sides collided before they had time to reload the gunpowder. The sea wolf's ship rushed to the front and was taken care of, and although it was not sunk, it was also crumbling. The masts were broken, the whole ship was on fire everywhere, and the sails were shot into hornet's nests.
The sea wolves shouted and accelerated, and the gunners saw that they were useless and rushed into the cabin to help the sailors in the bottom compartment paddle desperately. And the archers began to assemble on the deck, ready to attack. In a few breaths, their warships collided head-on with the Japanese ships, and squeezed a gap between the enemy ships.
There was a shrill grinding sound, and the ship slammed into a flattering fire, and then ten thousand arrows were fired in unison, and a dense stream of rockets swept over from both sides. Suddenly their ship almost turned into a fireship, and there was fire everywhere, and the gang that was shot screamed and rolled in an attempt to extinguish the fire. And the sea wolf stood in the bow of the ship, and did not dodge the rockets flying around, but kept dialing with his war knife, shouting again and again: "Speed! Hurry up, brothers!"
Before he could finish speaking, poof, an arrow was nailed to his shoulder, and he stumbled as it burned. Yun quickly snatched a shield to protect him at his side, helping him fend off the arrows.
The sea wolf just snorted, pulled out his arrow, threw his hand and threw it into the throat of a widow who was close at hand, still shouting: "Rush!
