Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Commander Zorn, my meaning is very clear. War requires warriors, not cowards! We are children of God, launching a holy war for the honor of God! God will bless us to be invincible! What's more, with our  With the advantages of three to four thousand cannons and musketeers, even if the opponent's ship is made of cement, they can't be afraid, but the crossbows and soldiers can't resist the whole army's artillery fire, and when they get close, the accuracy of the artillery fire is very high.  It will be greatly increased, and the combat power output is countless times greater than that of the opponent! You can definitely fight with it! Why be so embarrassed? Commander Zorn can ask you if this proposal is feasible.  Luo Bao said energetically, as if he had the pearls of wisdom in his hand.  And everyone who heard this also nodded continuously.  "Yeah, why are you running? We are much stronger than the opponent. The opponent only has a few cannons and they can't hit them accurately. So what can the bed crossbow do no matter how powerful it is? Can it be more powerful than the cannons?" This is what everyone wants,  It is a natural advantage of hot weapons over cold weapons.  "Commander Zorn, I think that Luo Baobing's suggestion is quite good. Before the war, I also analyzed the Ming army's collision and boarding tactics, and you have also fought with them. They are indeed behind the times. Our musketeers only need  If we can suppress them, everything will be worry-free," Jinnige said after thinking about it again.  As if to cooperate with his words, the Ming army's cannon exploded on a ship on the left side of the flagship.  The stern of the boat was blown apart!  "There is a saying in the Ming Dynasty that if there is constant interruption, there will be disaster. If it continues like this, I don't know how it will be swallowed up by the cannibal whale." After seeing the ship, Jin Nige said decisively.  "Okay! After a quarter of an hour, the whole ship stopped, fired two salvos across the board, and then two or three cooperated to prepare for the battle!" Zorn finally compromised.  The reputation of a coward is not a good thing. Although Zorn has long passed the age of drawing a sword and dueling for a word, the anger in his heart can be imagined when he heard what Robo meant.  The reason why I agreed was not so much that I was persuaded by Jin Nige and others.  It would be better to say that he was forced by the cannons of the Ming Dynasty.  Three shells have now hit his own fleet. God knows what the situation will be like if this continues.  So we can only go back and fight, although there will be some losses.  With the lowest casualties than he thought before.  In exchange for this great victory.  The discrepancy is much greater.  But the greater the sacrifice, the greater the gain. This has always been directly proportional.  Not to mention the rewards of jihad, once you get the opponent's cement ships and artillery manufacturing technology, you can imagine how quickly the Netherlands' military power will develop. The maritime supremacy will not be just one, but the absolute supremacy.  And the commander presiding over this battle is none other than Zorn!  "May the Lord protect us!" "God is with us." "The Holy War will be won!" "Capture Emperor Ming!" What Zorn didn't know was that the Ming army had been chasing for twenty or thirty miles, and the cabin was already busy.  That's ridiculous.  Although the distance from Leiden to Tianjin is not far, this emergency transfer is an emergency event, and it can be regarded as the first battle of the Leiden Navy.  Because we were in a hurry, there were no animals in the cabin.  Now in the cabin on the bottom floor, surrounded by six large mills, the one driving the propeller is the sergeant.  This kind of work is not a good one. Every six teams of sergeants work around a big mill and push it in circles. It is quite miserable.  It is possible to use the stored power, but it can only be pursued for two miles. The sniper crossbow can reach it, but the gasoline bomb sniper crossbow cannot reach it, and the victory is in vain.  "Not bad. In such a short period of time, three artillery shells have hit. I am looking forward to what will happen once my artillery grows up." Zhu Youxiao has a long history of worshiping cannons. Although this conventional cannon  It will eventually be completely replaced by missiles.  But its existence in the history of war on earth will be about three to four hundred years, and its role in war is irreplaceable.  Especially the proud achievements achieved at the Zhengtun Battlefield and Daqinghe Battlefield in Liaodong can really make it famous in history.  "Your Majesty, this cannon is indeed extraordinary. If the quality of equipment and gunners are improved in the future, then our Ming Dynasty will be unrivaled across the ocean!" In this pursuit battle, the power of the cannon is obvious to all. Compared with the coalition forces,  That iron ball, whether it is red-hot or not, is incomparable.  If the gun hits it, a big hole will be blown into the wooden ship. It will be too late to repair it. It will be a matter of time before the ship sinks.  Yuan Keli couldn't help but sigh. What a beautiful thing it would be if those gunners returned from Liaodong. This battle didn't need to be so strenuous at all. At such a distance, a hundred giant cannons would have wiped out one-third of the fleet in front.  One.  "It must be very hard for the sergeants below," Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but say:He said, the ship is too big, and it is really too hard to just rely on manpower to grind the mill. You must know that the original design of a large mill was to be pulled by eighteen cows, but now ten people have to pull three cows.  Cow, how can it be done?  "The emperor is kind and considerate of the sergeants. They have indeed worked hard, but I think that if the artillery can attack a few more ships, the coalition forces will not keep running." Yuan Keli said helplessly, don't pursue the poor enemy.  It makes sense, but the opposing coalition forces' method of retreating before advancing forced the Ming army to pursue them. The secret of the cement ship had been revealed, and the coalition forces were already alert.  Now they are chasing after them and beating them, but they have no ability to fight back. If this opportunity is missed, it will be even more difficult to get close to the enemy ship.  "Your Majesty, Master Yuan, this coalition will not wait long for trouble." Zheng Zhilong said with certainty at this time.  Although Zheng Zhilong is said to be a senior consultant, this consultant has always been in name only. Regarding the inspection of the cement ship, he did not know that the resistance of the cement ship this time would be so strong, which he could not imagine.  Now the Ming army relies on this solidity to force the enemy back. What an advantage this is.  It's like a martial arts master who has practiced iron cloth shirt fights with an ordinary person. The ordinary person hits the master several times and dozens of times, and they don't feel the pain. But you punch me and I punch you, but I can't.  You can imagine what the result would be.  However, the Ming army also has the indestructible Happy Cannon. Not only are they not afraid of being hit, but what is even more terrifying is that if a cannon is hit accurately, then the opponent's ship will most likely be destroyed. Even if the cabin is not leaked, death will occur.  It is hundreds of times larger than an ordinary cannon.  Although the gunners have not arrived now, which is a shortcoming, this shortcoming will be made up after the war.  What's even more frightening is that, in addition to the above two advantages, the speed of this ship has not been reduced. It is the same as that of ordinary ships. After turning on the power storage device, it will be even faster. Although this speed is a bit shorter, it is a trump card.  When used, the effect is not ordinary and sudden.  In addition, Zheng Zhilong followed the emperor back from Liaodong, and of course he knew about Song Yingxing's wind power generation project, which was to be transformed into cement ships first, but he didn't know how the speed would be improved.  Now Zheng Zhilong has no intention of competing for hegemony at sea. What a joke, the emperor has sent 30,000 naval troops, all equipped with such ships, and will build several more fleets in the future. How can there be such a thing on the sea?  Pirates only have the opportunity to hide and seek in special sea areas. Once they encounter it, there will be no luck at all.  "Oh, why is the official so sure?" "Back to the emperor, first of all, this Westerner believes in God. At the beginning of the holy war, he would not run away after firing a few shots. The saying that it is difficult to sheath a shameful knife is not only  It only applies to the Ming Dynasty, and the same applies to them. Secondly, Westerners now see the power of cement ships, but they worship artillery and think that whether a ship can sink or not, does it depend on the people and weapons?  So they retreat just to win the greatest victory at the minimum cost. But in their hearts, they still feel that they can defeat our army with the advantage of firepower. Third, greedy psychology.  Among the army's fleet, there are three things they can get that will make them turn around. The first is the emperor's personal expedition. If they can capture it, they will have supreme military merit, honor and wealth. The second is the cement ship, and the third is the cannon.  , the sturdiness of this kind of ship and the power of artillery, once they are mastered, can immediately make them an absolute power. This is something they cannot help but be greedy, so they will soon see a situation where distance is fruitless.  Next, let¡¯s turn back and fight.¡± Zheng Zhilong talked eloquently and analyzed the reasons why the enemy would turn back.  "It's very good for an official to analyze the situation and see what happens." In fact, Zhu Youxiao can see that there is no need to talk about such things. What are they here for?  Who could do such an anticlimactic thing? It's boring. This person has brought great embarrassment to the Catholic Church.  This requires a lot of people to do this.  However, Zhu Youxiao's analysis turned out to be sound, but he really didn't have such a theoretical basis.  "Your Majesty, the enemy has turned back!" After waiting for a while, Yuan Keli said!  "Okay, keep the ship speed and wait for the enemy's second salvo before launching!" Zhu Youxiao immediately ordered.  "I obey!" Then the enemy ship really started to turn, and the formation was obviously not as neat as the first time because it had retreated for more than thirty miles.  Amidst the sound of the coalition's artillery, Yuan Keli began to give orders through flags: "Everyone is ready. After the enemy's shelling, throw away the sandbags on the ship immediately!" The role of sandbags in dealing with shelling is quite large and extremely important.  Reduces the damage to personnel, hulls, weapons, and equipment caused by the second, third or more times after the iron ball hits.  (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
