    Chapter 458 Naval Battle 1

    Of course, verbally agreeing to this condition does not count. Of course, the contract must be written and signed, and it must be stamped with the king's jade seal. Fortunately, His Highness the King did not forget it, and took the jade seal with him when he left.  This leaves a lot to do.

    When we signed the peace treaty, we also proposed that the command of the army is in our hands. Otherwise, we will not be used as cannon fodder.

    The moment the peace treaty was signed, it was announced that the first overseas base of the Great Zhou Dynasty had been established. However, in order to help the Shadow Sea Kingdom fight, we must ensure our absolute firepower advantage. In this case, we have no way to split ships and return to our country.  Report the news.  If we go back after the battle, we will waste time again. In this case, I only choose a safer method. Moreover, the goods on our ship can also be sold to the Shadow Sea Kingdom, and they will count it as ours.  First trading partner.

    Xia Yutian and others may not know the importance of this overseas base, but I know that just like the current international situation, country m has the largest overseas base in the world, which can keep global trends under their control.  , once there is a threat to their interests, they can respond quickly, and the minimum is a military response.

    The Great Zhou Dynasty does not have such big ambitions, but it also needs to have military bases to protect the safety of its fleet and its own merchant ships, as well as to protect its interests abroad. The military base is equivalent to the tentacles of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is also the tentacles of the Great Zhou Dynasty.  The extension of Zhou's power is also a manifestation of a powerful country.

    After the peace treaty was signed, we sailed towards their base under the leadership of the king. We also encountered many rebel fleets along the way. Some came up in a show of force when they saw us, asking us to surrender, but in return they were all fleets.  The roar of artillery.  This also gives us an opportunity to train our own soldiers. Although it is cruel, war is inherently a cruel thing. The only thing that can be said is that even if they choose the wrong camp, at the same time, we are also forced to know that any big country's external expansion will be difficult.  It is based on bloodshed, just how much.

    At the same time, we also took this opportunity to once again prove our strength to the king and others, making them feel that doing business with us is worth the money. At the same time, occasionally we also revealed intentionally or unintentionally that there were bigger problems in Da Zhou's country.  A fleet is preparing to set sail, which can be regarded as a warning to them not to do that kind of thing of crossing rivers and burning bridges, otherwise, they will face even more violent attacks.

    In order to prove that our words are true and to show that we have more powerful weapons, we also took out the largest weapons on our artillery, which are the artillery used mainly to attack ground targets, which are much larger than naval guns.  When half of the cannon was revealed, the eyes of the king and others turned green. Then while they were stunned, we fired a cannonball, and it was not far away. We could see it clearly with the lens tube.  When they saw the huge power of the explosion, each of them fell silent. At the same time, I also revealed that this kind of artillery will be prepared on all ships in the Great Zhou Dynasty in the future.  In fact, I also give them a choice. Make Dazhou an enemy, and the consequences will be serious.

    After sailing for a few days, we arrived at a port. It seemed that it had not been attacked by the rebels. Many warships docked at the port. Seeing such a large ship like ours appearing on the sea in front of us, the whole port rang.  The bell rang.

    Of course, in response to them, we were not idle. All the fleets were lined up on the sea. The doors of the launch bays of all the artillery were opened. At the same time, the two large artillery on each ship were also placed on the deck.  Formation.

    ¡°Moreover, our distance from them is definitely within our range.

    Seeing us setting up our battle formation, the faces of the king and the others suddenly turned pale. They had seen the power of our weapons, and they believed that if they wanted to destroy the ships they docked at the seaport, it would be impossible for the ten ships now.  It is definitely an easy thing to do, and it does not take much time. Moreover, staying on the ship these days also gives him a chance to have close contact with the gunners on the ship, and also lets them know what these gunners like to do most now.  The only thing is to shoot to improve yourself.

    When he saw us preparing to attack, the king immediately found me and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I think there is a misunderstanding!"

    I withdrew my gaze from the lens barrel and said, "Your Majesty the King, we are your friendly forces now, but your army treats us like this. Isn't it very unfriendly?"

    "This is your forgiveness!"

    The king apologized: "Our country is in an extraordinary period now, and it is normal to have this kind of reaction, but I hope you can restrain yourself and I will send someone over right away!"

    This is what I said when I saw himFor his own sake, it is not good to force others to do something difficult. After all, someone else has given us a piece of land now, so we still have to give him some face, so he nodded and said, "Well, I will wait for the news here, and I also promise you,  As long as your army doesn't take action, my army will definitely stand still. It will definitely not be the first to fire!"

    The king nodded and agreed immediately.

    After a while, a ship belonging to them sailed out of the fleet and headed towards the port. There was a royal mark on the ship, indicating that it was a warship of the Royal Fleet.

    And we waited patiently. At the same time, the alert on the ship has not been lifted. You must know that this is an emergency period. No one knows whether this port is still under the control of the king's army. The so-called don't be afraid of anything, just be afraid of ten thousand.

    While we were waiting, the lookout on the mast shouted loudly: "There is a large fleet coming towards us from the southeast!"

    "What?"

    Everyone was shocked.

    I immediately picked up the lens barrel, and sure enough, a large number of ships appeared in the southeast direction. They were about five kilometers away from me now, and there were a lot of ships.

    After looking at it, I handed the lens tube to the king. When he saw it, his face immediately changed and he exclaimed: "That's the navy's fleet! And judging from the number, they seem to have dispatched all the warships!"

    Xia Yutian and I immediately understood that someone must have leaked our movements and knew our purpose. Now they plan to use all their strength to eliminate us here in one fell swoop to prevent us from joining the various navies.

    I couldn¡¯t help but spread my hands and said, ¡°It seems like we are going to have a fierce battle today!¡±

    Xia Yutian nodded, with a hint of excitement on his face, and said: "The enemy is now ten times our strength. If we can defeat them, then our Zhou navy can be one to ten, truly invincible."  The world is over!"

    After finishing speaking, he immediately shouted: "Herald, tell all ships to prepare for battle!"

    The fleet immediately adjusted its battle formation. Now the enemy is downwind and is very fast. This is a very disadvantageous point for us. At the same time, if they cut into us, their weapons can attack us. This damage  It¡¯s inevitable!

    Our biggest problem now is speed. The speed of the battleship is still up to standard. The key is the few cargo ships inside. Moreover, the enemy is coming with the wind, which is very disadvantageous for us.  In this case, we can only take advantage of the long range of our artillery and try to deal a heavy blow to them after they get close to us.

    After Xia Yutian gave the order, I turned to the king and said, "Your Majesty, I hope your army will also participate. After all, this is your war!"

    The king nodded and said: "Of course!"

    Fortunately, the people he sent have arrived at the port, and some people at the port also discovered the enemy ships at sea, and they left the port one after another and headed towards us.  But we deliberately keep a certain distance from them, just to prevent these people from doing harm to us.

    When the enemy ship was two kilometers away from us, the artillery on our ten warships began to roar. Balls of fire accompanied by gunpowder smoke emerged from the side of the ship, and there was also a deafening loud noise.

    At this time, there was a huge explosion around the enemy ship in the distance, and at the same time, high water columns rose on the sea. After just one encounter, the enemy ship at the front burst into flames.

    Most of today's ships are sailing ships, and they are large sailing ships. They do not have the flexibility of modern ships at sea, and when faced with weapons that are many times faster than throwing trebuchets, they simply cannot  They didn't know how to dodge, and they didn't know where the next shell would come from, and some of them knew what it was. After the explosion, they saw raging fires everywhere on the ship, and then some  The people were blown to pieces and panicked immediately, so the originally neatly arranged fleet still panicked, and ships began to collide with each other.

    The enemy's mistakes are our opportunities. This is a theory that every soldier must learn. Although the enemy is in chaos, only a few are hit, and the hit rate of artillery at such a long distance is not very good. We  The pressure is still great.

    In order to save artillery shells, the rate of fire of the weapons is not very fast. After several shots, the enemy ships gradually got closer to us, but they also paid a heavy price. Close to more than 20 warships were in raging fire.  They were unwilling to sink to the bottom of the water, but they seemed to be determined and had no intention of retreating. After the initial panic, they began to disperse, which increased the difficulty of our shooting.

    And the atmosphere that made me very excited was coming out of the portThe ships are now standing still, as if they are watching a good show.
