- Boom!
A sailor was shot and knocked back a few steps before falling to the deck.
Lead bullets are more powerful than arrows and can directly create a wound as big as a bowl on a person's body. This made Wang Renzeng's men feel very scared. They did not expect that the weapons in the hands of the enemy could cause such great damage.
The muskets of the Folangji people they have seen are not so powerful at all.
Although it hurts when hit on the body, the small lead shot is difficult to remove and the wound is easily infected. But this is the first time I have seen a wound as big as a bowl.
¡°This has to be said that Zhao Hongyu is really too shady.
He used another method of space-time dummy bullets, which made cross holes for these lead bullets. Although not every time this is done, the power of a dummy bullet will appear, but some will appear more or less among a hundred rounds.
It was for this reason that the unlucky guy just now ended up in this situation after being shot.
¡°It can only be said that this guy is not very lucky.
There were many companions who were shot along with him, but not many were seriously injured like him.
This guy was shot in the chest, so he was dying and there was no way he could survive.
Some people turned over and fell into the sea because of the shooting.
Just like the situation against the left wing, these people only had time to shoot an arrow before they were completely suppressed.
"Rush over! Then turn the boat around! Turn around and continue to get at them!"
The leader on the boat kept shouting loudly.
"Quick, throw the rope to hook them, get close to the ship and fight hand to hand!"
Orders were issued one after another, and now everyone is red-eyed.
"It's a pity, how could Zhang Bangchang and others give these people a chance.
When the two ships passed by each other and met, the bombardment began again.
Launch!
Boom!
Boom boom!
Crackling!
Oh my mom!
Just like the situation encountered by the left-wing warships, facing the rounds of fire from twelve artillery pieces, these oncoming fighting ships were turned over by sawdust from the shelling. Some sailors were even lifted into the air by the huge waves, and then fell into the sea.
The entire side of the bucket ship was basically riddled with holes by explosive bombs, like a colander.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
The pole slowly came down, killing many people below.
In the shelling, the rods were broken.
A ship like this is no longer viable.
There was no pole, and at the same time a large hole appeared on one side of the hull, and sea water kept pouring in. At the same time, the shelling also caused a lot of losses to the sailors on the ship, so the ship was basically completely destroyed.
Wang Renzeng rushed over with several warships under his command. Basically they were all bombarded at the same time.
In other words, these ships were completely destroyed in the same short period of time.
People on the warships that were still rushing over from behind were dumbfounded in surprise when they saw such a scene.
I¡¯m going to do it!
When did the Folangji become so brutal and ferocious?
Could it be that they are possessed by Poseidon?
But soon, they discovered that the people who were operating the Franji warships to fight them were not the Franji people they thought. They are oriental people with black hair and black eyes, not those yellow-haired monsters.
Damn it. Why did Fo Langjiren's warship end up in Li Xiang's hands?
By this time, they had finally come back to their senses.
Dare to love, these people who are driving Fran in a warship. Not those yellow-haired monsters. It's Li Xiang's subordinates. This is a very shocking thing.
God knows how Li Xiang obtained the Franconian warship.
You know, the Fo Langji people will have their own warships. But it is very important to see.
It¡¯s okay if you ask them to sell artillery, but the price is too expensive.
¡°But selling the boat¡don¡¯t even think about it.
Even Zheng Zhilong¡¯s repeated threats and inducements did not work.
After a brief period of confusion. Wang Renzeng's men took action again.
Even if Li Xiang owns Fo Langjiren¡¯s warship, so what. Now that we have a lot of people, do they want to turn the tables with just a few Folan warships???
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?Joke!
"Damn, what the hell. How did Li Xiang get these Franji warships, and they are so smooth and proficient in playing Franji."
The two sides are already so close. Even if Wang Renzeng was reluctant, he now knew who was operating the Franchise warship.
He put down the telescope in his hand and cursed angrily.
"Boss, what should we do now?"
"The power of Zhang Bangchang's artillery attack just now was really seen by these people.
¡°Just imagine that in that situation, even if they themselves faced this level of shelling, they would be absolutely powerless.
damn it!
How come Fo Langjiren¡¯s warship ended up in Li Xiang¡¯s hands.
"What else can we do? Move the ship to help me. Didn't you see that Li Xiang's fleet is surrounded here now? As long as we have some time, we can deal with them."
Wang Renzeng shouted angrily to the subordinate who asked the question.
Yes, now his battle with most of the Amami Island fleet has entered the most critical stage.
The two sides are entangled in chaos, and everyone is gritting their teeth and holding on.
Especially for the people on Amami Island, their pressure is extremely huge.
Fortunately, they still have hope, otherwise they would have collapsed long ago.
Wang Renzeng¡¯s fleet has an absolute numerical advantage, which is no joke.
In such a disparate duel, Amamijima managed to hold on until now thanks to the tension in his heart.
If it were any other force, the naval battle would have collapsed long ago if it reached such a point.
Wang Renzeng also felt that people like Li Xiang should have collapsed long ago.
However, the development of things once again exceeded his expectations.
No matter how dangerous the situation is, these people are still struggling to support it.
This made Wang Renzeng confused.
Why do people like Li Xiang support us to this point?
Is it possible that they think that with these nineteen Folang warships, they can turn the tide?
In Wang Renzeng¡¯s opinion, this should be the case.
In fact, Wang Renzeng didn¡¯t know at all. Why are everyone on Amami Island still struggling to support themselves despite being like this?
Now many of their ships have been destroyed, and some ships even engaged in brutal hand-to-hand combat because of the enemy boarding.
People kept falling into the sea, wailing fiercely from their mouths.
Dozens of large ships ignited blazing flames, and black smoke filled the air and rose into the sky with the wind.
The reason why the people of Amami Island are still supporting now is because there are still their closest relatives on the island behind them.
¡°If they give up their resistance now and let Zheng Zhilong¡¯s people succeed, their relatives on the island will be massacred by Zheng Zhilong just like the brothers and their families on the Naha side.
No!
They won't allow this to happen.
so. Even if they still have one person and one sampan, they will never give up.
What¡¯s more, they still have another hope, which is the 19 European-style fleet commanded by Zhang Bangchang.
¡°Maybe¡there is no guarantee that this battle will turn around.
Relatives and hope, this is why they are still fighting.
How could Wang Renzeng know this?
Liu Dashen stood at the bow of the ship with a monocular telescope, constantly observing the situation of each ship.
He is searching for the enemy's flagship.
"Did you find anything?"
Zhang Bangchang¡¯s voice came from behind and was accompanied by the sound of a sharp weapon entering his body.
There are a few guys who are actually able to board the ship.
but. Before they had time to cause trouble, these 'lucky' guys were killed.
"Everyone, please be careful and don't let the enemy board the ship again."
Zhang Bangchang shouted loudly.
Those "lucky ones" used ropes to get over from their own boats. After all, they were in such a close-range melee. There are always opportunities, right?
"It seems that Zheng Bailian didn't come in person this time. I didn't find a big flag with the word Zheng. Instead, I found a flag with the word "Íõ". If I guessed correctly, thenSo the one who attacks us this time may be Wang Renzeng of the Twelve Sea Kings under Zheng Zhilong. "
After hearing Zhang Bangchang¡¯s inquiry behind him. Liu Dashen put down the telescope in his hand and replied.
¡°What, it¡¯s Wang Renzeng, the butcher!!!¡±
Hearing what Liu Dashen said, Zhang Bangchang's expression changed drastically.
Butcher?
Although Wang Renzeng¡¯s nickname is Haiyaksha. But he is not a butcher by any means.
"Although this guy was working under Zheng Zhilong, some of the things he did were very unethical. For example, he would kill people and silence them after receiving money, but after all, such things rarely happen, right?"
When he saw Zhang Bangchang¡¯s face changed drastically and he spat out that Wang Ren had been a butcher, Liu Dashen was very surprised by this.
He remembered that when he fought against Zheng Zhilong in Naha last year, Wang Renzeng didn¡¯t have such a nickname.
¡°Why, did Wang Renzeng do something shocking after he was captured by the Dutch?
"Where is his flagship?"
Teng Teng Teng!
Zhang Bangchang came to Liu Da Scar in a few steps, raised his hands and grabbed Liu Da Scar's thick shoulders, shook him hard, and shouted at the same time with a hoarse voice and a distorted face.
"Uncle! Uncle! Don't get excited. Wang Renzeng is right in front, only five buildings away from us."
Liu Dashen didn¡¯t know why Zhang Bangchang was so excited, and he looked a little weird when he was so excited.
However, he still answered Zhang Bangchang.
"Hahaha! Wang Renzeng, a big enemy! I didn't expect to meet him here today!"
Zhang Bangchang raised his head and laughed wildly, but there were tears in his eyes.
"Full speed, full advance! Ignore the other ships, we have only one goal, and that is Wang Renzeng's flagship!"
Zhang Bangchang shouted and ordered at the top of his lungs.
"Ouch!"
What made Liu Dashen even more curious was that after the brothers around him heard that they were going to deal with Wang Renzeng's flagship, they all became abnormal.
Of course, this abnormality is what Liu Dashen thinks personally.
What the hell is going on?
The flag bearer on the main pole conveyed everything here.
The surrounding ships quickly reported back the news.
When everyone learned that Wang Ren was here, everyone went crazy.
Nineteen warships all began to converge towards Wang Renzeng's direction.
Along the way, they destroyed many warships and were almost unstoppable.
But basically no warship that passed them could withstand the bombardment.
It can be seen from this that this kind of tactics that Europeans could only use in the 18th century is still very effective.
"Da Liu, you don't know. After we were defeated in the Naha naval battle, Naha was occupied by Zheng Zhilong. And our brothers and their families in Naha were ordered to be killed by Zheng Zhilong. In fact, this is nothing, we People are originally just trying to make ends meet, so now that we have embarked on this road, we also know clearly what the outcome will be in the end. There is nothing to be successful or defeated, but what Wang Renzeng did is really Man and God are outraged."
While there was still some time, Zhang Bangchang mentioned Wang Renzeng.
Because of the current shelling, basically the warships under Wang Renzeng's command have been frightened.
But any ship that passes by will be destroyed by the other side, which really makes them feel scared.
Therefore, when Zhang Bangchang and others charged towards the direction of Wang Renzeng's flagship, no surrounding ships dared to block their progress.
It is precisely for this reason that Zhang Bangchang had the opportunity to explain to Liu Dashen why he was so angry and excited when he mentioned Wang Renzeng.
On the other side, Wang Renzeng discovered that the enemy was coming towards him. At that moment, his face turned aside and he shouted angrily at the men around him.
"Adjust the boat to me and resist those guys. Turn the sail and get out of here quickly. Those guys are already coming towards us. Can't you see that they are blind!"
Under Wang Renzeng¡¯s scolding, his subordinates quickly took action.
The sailors began to pull hard on the rope, turn the sail and turn the bow.
At the same time, the flag bearers also began to continuously raise flags to the surroundings, asking them to withstand Zhang Bangchang's fleet.
Damn it, why are you coming at me?
Wang Renzeng cursed in a low voice.
In fact, Wang Renzeng was also scared at this time.
After all, the shelling by Zhang Bangchang and the others just now shocked him greatly.
In just a quarter of an hour, more than thirty large warships were destroyed. How long ago had there been such an effective battle in a naval battle?
Today he had his eyes opened.
At this time, at the northern end of Amami Island, Li Xiang brought his three Ming-style warships. And the thirty imperial warships that Zhao Hongyu gave him appeared in the waters of Amami Island, and were only three nautical miles away from Amami Island
"Uncle, look. There is still black smoke on the south side of the island. Is there something wrong?"
At the southern end of Amami Island, black smoke produced by burning warships has filled the air.
So, Yang Biao immediately discovered something was wrong in the south of the island (To be continued) - Didn't finish reading?
