Text Chapter 988 The Battle of Amami Island (Epilogue)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    To say that the Nanman warships are already sophisticated, no matter the range and power of the artillery, they are not comparable to the Ming-style warships.

    At the same time, the Nanman warships were also very fast, much stronger than the Eastern warships with only two or even one pole.

    So, Zhang Bangchang even believed that the warships of the Southern Barbarians were the most powerful in this era.

    Especially in the naval battle just now, he personally experienced the power of the Nanman warships, so he was almost certain of his idea.

    However, when a sudden fleet appeared, his idea was completely turned upside down.

    These warships are larger than our own Spanish galleons, almost twice as big.  At the same time, the number of artillery on these warships was more than four times that of my own Spanish galleon.

    If nothing else, just looking at the densely packed cannon muzzles on both sides of the warship will tell you how terrifying such a warship would be if it launched a bombardment.

    If you use the tactics you used before, even if your own warships are bombarded by the opponent, they will not be the opponent of these warships.

    God, where did these warships come from?

    Zhang Bangchang¡¯s eyes almost popped out.

    Even the sailors who formed a small turtle formation looked dumbfounded and looked silly.

    Liu Dashen had just dealt with the enemies who had been shot down at this time. When he looked up, he saw an imperial warship approaching quickly. In the process of his advancement, he knocked over many enemy small ships.  At the same time, the artillery on both sides of the ship was continuously firing, destroying the enemy ships on both sides of its path.

    The Wang Renso fleet, which originally had the upper hand and overpowered the people on Amami Island, immediately turned into a trembling little beast when they encountered these fierce Imperial warships, and could only be ravaged by a strong attack.

    Relying on the tall 'body' and the powerful 'strength', the imperial fleet's strong attack ravaged the 'little sufferer' with wailing wails again and again, and even lost the strength to beg for mercy.

    After Zhang Bangchang¡¯s attack, a lot of the large warships under Wang Renzeng¡¯s command had been damaged.

    ¡°Then Li Xiang joined in with the imperial warships, which suddenly put Wang Renzeng¡¯s fleet in danger.

    Today is definitely Wang Renzeng¡¯s unlucky day, because all the unlucky things happened to him today.

    I don¡¯t know if it was because he went too far when he was in Naha, so he was really unlucky today.

    Zhang Bangchang did not know the warships of the Song Empire, so when he saw such a fierce warship appearing, his first reaction was shock and then panic.

    Because he didn¡¯t know whether these ships that suddenly appeared were his enemies.

    It would be a bad thing if it was Zheng Zhilong¡¯s new warship.

    Fortunately, after these warships joined the battlefield, they launched a bombardment on Wang Renzeng's warship.  That made Zhang Bangchang feel relieved, but a big question mark flashed in his mind.

    That means I don¡¯t know why these warships want to help me.

    They have never seen such warships, so they are even less likely to know the owners of these warships.

    ¡°And they have been here in the Eastern Sea for twenty or thirty years.  He had never seen such a fierce warship, so Zhang Bangchang was full of doubts.

    Fortunately, he was not left wondering for too long. After dealing with the enemies who rushed onto the boat, Liu Dashen, who came back, gave an answer.

    "This is the warship of the Song Empire. It seems that Wang Renzeng is doomed this time. There is no way he can escape in any case. The warship of the Song Empire is very fast and the range of the artillery is also very long. Wang Renzeng this time  It¡¯s completely finished.¡±

    Liu Dashen recognized the red five-star flag fluttering in the wind, so when he came back, he laughed and said to Zhang Bangchang.

    "What, you said this is a warship of the Song Empire!?"

    After Zhang Bangchang heard what Liu Dashen said, his face looked shocked.

    Liu Dashen nodded and answered: "Yes, I can't be wrong. That flag with a red background is from the Song Empire. It seems to be called the five-star red flag. Anyway, after seeing this flag, then I am sure that it is  It¡¯s one o¡¯clock.¡±

    After all, they spent a lot of time at sea with Zhao Hongyu and others, so how could Liu Dashen admit his mistake.

    But Liu Dashen has no intention of discussing this issue with Zhang Bangchang now. After all, they still have a very important matter to solve in front of them.

    Those are their feetThis Spanish galleon has been scrapped.

    Yes, this Spanish galleon, Zhang Bangchang's flagship, was rammed by the fighting ship just now.  Even the keel has been broken, so the ship is considered completely useless.

    Sea water is constantly pouring into the cabin. Although the ship has not sunk yet, everyone knows that it will happen sooner or later.

    At the same time, the enemy's warships are not much better, so they have to solve this problem now.

    If this problem cannot be solved, everyone will have to feed the fish later.

    After all, the battle is still ongoing, so no one will come to rescue them at all.

    Now in this situation, they can only rely on themselves.

    "This ship has been scrapped, and sea water is constantly pouring in. It is estimated that the ship will sink in half an hour. So we have to quickly think of ways to see what we can do."

    Liu Dashen said to Zhang Bangchang with a serious face.

    Hearing this, Zhang Bangchang immediately put his intention to ask about the Song Empire's warships to the back of his mind. The question in front of him was indeed very important.

    This is a matter related to his own life, so Zhang Bangchang can't help but not care.

    He looked around and found that his flagship was almost broken at the waist by the impact of the enemy.

    It was only thanks to the fact that the enemy's ship was not very fast that we failed.

    But even so, his flagship is considered useless.

    And the opponent's warship is not much better. The front end of the entire fighting ship has been damaged, and it is completely embedded in the middle of its flagship.

    It can be said that both ships are now unusable.

    Now, seawater is pouring into the cabin of his flagship. When his flagship sinks, the enemy's fighting ship embedded in it will also sink to the bottom of the sea.

    At this moment, a familiar voice came from not far away.

    ¡°Da Liu, Bangchang, your ship is going to sink!!¡±

    The two of them looked towards the source of the sound and saw the white-haired Li Xiang standing at the bow of the imperial battleship, waving his right arm towards them while shouting loudly.

    Boss Li!

    After seeing Li Xiang, Zhang Bangchang¡¯s eyes widened again, like a big-eyed goldfish.

    But unlike Zhang Bangchang¡¯s excited reaction, Liu Dashen was not too excited.

    Because since he discovered the imperial warship, he deduced that Li Xiang might be back.

    The fact that the warships of the Song Empire can appear here is a signal in itself.

    Liu Dashen was quite aware of the style of the Song Empire. After all, he had been following Zhao Hongyu for several months.

    In Liu Dashen¡¯s impression, the people of the Song Empire were vigorous and resolute in doing things, and they were not sloppy at all.  No matter what the matter is, we strive to handle it as quickly as possible while ensuring that there are no problems.

    When he first came into contact with these people from the Song Empire, Liu Dashen was still a little uncomfortable with it.

    After all, he was used to being lazy during his days as a pirate.

    ¡°And when dealing with those businessmen and gentlemen of the Ming Dynasty, these guys were also slow and slow.

    Therefore, Liu Dashen himself has developed such a lazy habit.

    But this habit of his has become an outlier among Zhao Hongyu¡¯s team.

    Being an alternative is always uncomfortable.

    Especially after Liu Dashen had decided to become a citizen of the Song Empire and registered as a household register.  It was necessary for him to make some changes, otherwise, how could he pursue the girl he valued.

    Therefore, he felt that after Boss Li Xiang went to Nagasaki, he would be able to finish what he wanted to do very quickly.  It wouldn't take long at all, so when he saw the warships of the Song Empire appearing, he immediately reacted and thought of this matter.

    So, when he saw Li Xiang appearing at the front of the warship not far away, it was impossible for him to be as excited as Zhang Bangchang.

    The reason why Zhang Bangchang is so excited is because Li Xiang, the backbone, is back.  Moreover, this backbone also brought a powerful fleet with him.

    He had seen the performance of these imperial warships after they rushed into the battlefield just now.

    The fragments of enemy warships that have been continuously destroyed by imperial warships are still floating on the sea at this moment.

    Even among the enemy ships burning with flames and emitting thick black smoke, there were many not far away.

      The cannons were rumbling and the shouts of killing continued. At this time, the naval battle was not over yet.

    However, due to the arrival of Li Xiang and the Imperial Fleet, the balance of victory has now completely shifted to the Amami Island side.

    Relying on its powerful attack and defense power, as well as its huge hull, the imperial fleet rushed and destroyed enemy warships as if entering an uninhabited land, sinking or destroying them.

    In the end, Zhang Bangchang, Liu Dashang and others were taken to his ship by Li Xiang and settled there.

    With Li Xiang as the center, the imperial fleet has cleared a safe area.

    The first thing Liu Dashen did after he boarded the ship and saw Li Xiang was to say to Li Xiang: "Uncle Li, we immediately ordered the pursuit. This guy Wang Renzeng ran away just now. If we don't chase him now, we will chase him."  Not on."

    Yes, Liu Dashen, who had been paying attention to Wang Renzeng's side, clearly saw that when Li Xiang and the imperial fleet appeared, he immediately turned the bow of the ship and fled south.

    After hearing this, Li Xiang nodded and solemnly assured Liu Dashen: "Don't worry, this guy can't run away." (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
