And now Zhu Youxiao has used it on the ship, and adding a power accumulator, of course, the effect is remarkable. But at this time, Zhu Youxiao will not wait for them to come to any conclusion. After using the 'acceleration thruster', the Ming army's ship speed has reached a relatively terrifying figure. "We must retreat now. Although I don't know why the Ming army can accelerate, I believe that this power cannot last long, otherwise it would have been used just now!" Tang Ruowang said decisively when he saw that Ming Chuan was so energetic and rushed towards him at an accelerated speed. "Yes, we can only reduce the losses caused by ship collisions by retreating. Fortunately, the Ming army has fewer ships than us! Order all sailors to pick up weapons and prepare for a broadside battle!" Zorn's question reflects the magnanimity of the battlefield commander! Yuan Keli is now constantly watching the distance between the two fleets. Because of the enemy's second bombardment, the Ming army has been close to the distance of three miles. After a while, it will be the time for the Ming army to show off its sniper crossbows. "Three miles," "Two miles and a half!" "Two miles!" "A sniper crossbow, artillery enemy above the target deck! Shoot!" In order to maintain the continuity of sniper crossbow attacks, Yuan Keli divided the sniper crossbows into A, B, C and D. There are four groups, the first three are sniper crossbows, and the last one is a gasoline bomb sniper crossbow. Because as the distance gets closer, the artillery poses an increasing threat to the Ming army. Especially now that the Ming army is on the deck, just because the hull can withstand the artillery fire does not mean that the human body can withstand it. So it must be solved first. At this time, the training results of the sailors were immediately revealed. Shooting on the ship was the same as shooting on horseback. The key point is to grasp the ups and downs and seize the fleeting opportunities. Kill the enemy in one fell swoop. The members of Group A held their breath and concentrated, their eyes almost sunk into the scope. Each one had already locked onto their target. As soon as the firing range was reached, the sniper crossbow rushed directly towards the target like a black lightning bolt as soon as the trigger was pulled. Target! For a moment, the Western sailor at the rear was in dire straits. A sniper crossbow with a thick arm, as long as it finds a person, it will immediately kill or maim it, and lose the ability to fight. The hit rate reached more than one tenth! This number is quite terrible. You must know that the hit rate in naval battles is as low as about 1, 2, or 3 percent. This is when the waves are small. And the Ming army's current hit rate has reached its peak! But this low hit rate refers to artillery, which has strong recoil. The sniper crossbow has no recoil. In addition, there is a "cheating device" like a sight, so the hit rate is within a thousand meters. As the distance increases, "Look for cover!" "Ah! My legs!" " How is it so accurate? " "What the hell is this! ?" "My God, the Ming army is so scary!" The jihadists behind the stern of the coalition army all saw it. Shots of black light were shot out, and those black lights were like eyes, heading directly towards the sailors on the stern and the deck! The power of the sniper crossbow was immediately displayed, and the first order of attack was the gunner, because as the distance shortened. The damage caused by artillery to the Ming Dynasty also increased geometrically. Only disabling the gunner behind the stern is the safest guarantee. "What kind of weapon is this? How can it shoot so far?" Zorn looked at the fierce soldier as thick as an arm. It made him tremble involuntarily! Those who were shot almost always rushed back with the person behind them before stopping. "Bed crossbow, this kind of thing existed in ancient China, but I didn't expect it to be able to shoot so far and so accurately!" Tang Ruowang said and looked at Yang Tingyun beside him. "That was developed by the emperor. Lin Dan Khan was defeated by him on the grassland. The most important thing is that there is a telescope on it." At this time, Yang Tingyun didn't know whether he should be grateful that the emperor was invincible, or hope that the Catholic Church would be better. These days He was almost conflicted to death. "Oh God, it's here again!" Zorn was stunned and suddenly discovered that those black lights were shooting from the Ming Kingdom's ship again! "Group B shoots!" As Yuan Keli's orders continued to be issued, as soon as the flag message was conveyed, the pro-soldiers who had been prepared immediately began to judge on behalf of God. "Group C shooting!" "Group T shooting" "Group A shooting!" "Group B shooting!" "Group C shooting!" "Group T shooting" "Group A shooting!" Nine rounds of shooting, will The momentum of the coalition forces was completely destroyed. Zorn never imagined that the Ming army would be so ferocious! Like a tiger descending from the mountain, it pounces and bites like crazy! But he was bitten so hard that he had no power to fight back. On the rough sea, the hit rate would be so high.The active forces on the stern and deck of the ship were quickly cleared by the Ming army, and the force on the sides of the ship was unable to cause any counterattack against the Ming army because the angle of the gun could not hit the rear. "Order the sailors to find cover!" Zorn finally couldn't hold on any longer. In this short time of turning the helm and speeding up, the Ming army caught up to him for two miles and killed so many people. The weapons they used were still cold. Weapons were something only the natives used, but this kind of weapon, which was only used by the natives, actually caused him heavy losses. If we can't distance ourselves from the Ming army, this battle will really be unwinnable. Just now, Zorn thought about pulling away the distance and dragging the Ming army to fight like a turtle. As long as the turtle shell is removed, the Ming army is just a piece of meat on the chopping board. He can eat it how he wants. How to eat, once they capture their emperor, this achievement is not ordinary! But now, the situation on the battlefield is changing, as unpredictable as the weather on the sea. He only fired four rounds of cannons, and everything began to reverse. This is incredible. "T-group target sail! A-group prepare for gasoline bombs!" The two hundred feet of chasing and escaping. Although it was a little slow, the two hundred feet of distance was finally caught up. At this time, the coalition forces The speed of the warship has begun to increase, and the sail has begun to bulge. This is a sign that the sails are affected by the wind, and the speed of the ship can be increased. Zorn and the others touched their crosses one by one, and they finally saw hope. Although they didn't know why the Ming army could suddenly accelerate, one thing was confirmed. That kind of acceleration could not last long, otherwise it would be really unbelievable. As long as the distance is opened, everything will start again, and the Ming army will never be given any chance to get closer. But this relief had just begun, and the disaster began. This time the cold weapons of the Ming army suddenly became hotter, and their target changed to sails! "Hoo!" The sniper crossbow immediately lit up the sail with a gasoline bomb. At this time, almost all the Western-style ships were on fire. "Fight the fire! Hurry! Put out the fire!" This problem is serious. There is no question of hit rate here. As long as it can hit the target, the chance of missing the target is very small, because the sail is really too big. As long as it is not caused by the ups and downs of the waves, there is no chance of failure. How could Zorn and others sit still when they saw such a scene? The only power of the ship is the wind, and the only thing that can get the power of the wind is the sail. Once the sail is burned, the ship can only spin in the sea. The crossbows of the Ming army were so powerful that the fleet could only be massacred! This battle can be ended immediately. "Fight the fire with all your strength!" The sailors are all experienced, and they don't know the key, so they start fighting the fire one by one without any orders. "Oh God, this fire is not afraid of water!" "How could this be possible!?" The sailors who put out the fire were not afraid of the risk of being shot by bed crossbows. They climbed up and down to carry water and water, trying to extinguish the flames, but There was oil in that damn fire! It was difficult to climb to a certain height to put out the fire, but how could the fire be put out so easily? The fire burned very quickly in the sea breeze, especially because of the presence of oil. Adding to the fire, the captains of each ship shouted like crazy! He desperately fetched water from the sea and put out the fire regardless. Who doesn¡¯t understand the importance of sails? If this is normal, then that's it. If it burns out, just replace it. But now it is wartime, and the Ming army has followed again. "God, won't you protect us?!" Zorn was shouting "arrogantly"! "The Ming Dynasty was so despicable that they even burned sails! And they used oil!" It would be troublesome to put out something like oil. Anyone who knows something knows that oil fires need to be covered with water, but the effect of water is terrible. It's much worse, and it might even contribute to the fire. But it's not the deck that's within reach, it's the sail that hangs high on the mast. If you want to completely destroy it, the best way is to furl your sails first. But how is it different from seeking death to furl the sails at this time? Yes, if the sails are burned or lowered, then the ship is stopped, so how can we fight? This problem is so embarrassing. The Ming army is now so close. If the sail is destroyed, it means that the fleet is completely anchored and drifting on the ocean. Now that the cannon at the stern of the ship has been suppressed by the Ming army, it cannot raise its head. The Ming army can completely kill the coalition fleet from behind. Furthermore, even if you don¡¯t play, where can you go in the vast sea? Zhu Youxiao looked at it with a smile on his face! This is considered victory in sight. Zheng Zhilong was also unhappy on the sidelines. He felt too immersed in the situation and always placed his role on the enemy's ship. It feels like he is standing on the opposite side of the Ming army. Now he is much less powerful than the Netherlands in the Ming Dynasty. Even the Dutch coalition was burned so simply. How about thinking about it in another person's shoes? This feeling of failure is really disappointing. As the raging fire continued to burn, black smoke billowed into the sky. Fortunately, they all go upwards and do not affect the shooting of the sniper crossbow too much. "It's over, the ship won't be able to move soon! What can we do?" Jinni Ge was infinitely frustrated. On the other hand, the Ming army's sniper crossbows were already showing their power. Both the rate of fire and the hit rate were so powerful, and this power would continue to increase. As the distance shortened and the ship's speed slowed down, it greatly increased; on the other hand, its own maneuverability was completely lost, and soon it could only drift in the sea.
