At the end of the 16th century, Taikaku Hideyoshi decided to send troops to attack the Ming Dynasty in order to quell the problem of insufficient land in the country.
Therefore, Hideyoshi made a request to Korea to "falsely enter the Ming Dynasty", but in the end he decided to annex Korea first, and then the Ming Dynasty, and then complete his dream of dominating Asia.
In April of the same year, Hideyoshi sent 160,000 Japanese pirates to invade North Korea, and the "Battle of Bunroku" began.
In order to repel the menacing enemy, King Li Huo of North Korea had to send an envoy to ask for help from the sovereign Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty was still relatively strong at the time, so he quickly sent a large army to rescue, and the two sides began to fight fiercely.
Since then, the two sides have been fighting on and off the Korean Peninsula for several years...
Later, Taiko Hideyoshi died of illness in Fushimi Castle, Kyoto. The invaders were unable to survive after Hideyoshi's death and had to retreat in panic. Then, with the victory in the Noryang Sea Battle, the Japanese wanted to invade North Korea and then capture the Ming Dynasty. The "snake swallows the elephant" delusion was finally completely shattered, and at the same time, the Toyotomi regime also began to fall apart.
At this time, the Tokugawa family has basically eliminated the power of the Toyotomi family and is replacing them, ending the chaotic Warring States Period of Japan.
However, precisely because the Edo period of the shogun had begun, the settled shoguns and lords, in order to ensure their own luxurious lives, continued to increase their exploitation of the local people of Japan, and at the same time, they also turned their attention to the wealthy people next door. of the Ming Dynasty.
However, due to the "tributary" system in the late Ming Dynasty adopting the "contract system" and the implementation of very strict maritime bans, even local snakes like the Li family fleet had to be driven away by various policies issued by the government. Therefore, those shogunate Seeing that it was impossible to do business with the Ming Dynasty, the generals and lords decided to take risks and united with merchants and ronin within the territory to rob the coastal areas of the Ming Dynasty on a large scale.
As a result, the Japanese pirate rebellion in the late Ming Dynasty and the leader of the Japanese pirates, whom Li Huamei dreamed of eradicating, were rampant in the coastal waters of Korea and the Ming Dynasty. They were also good at guerrilla warfare and the use of armored ships and hand-to-hand combat. The "Lai Island" family came into being.
Of course, none of the above is important!
Because a certain bad little girl, the Admiral, doesn't care what era the Japanese country is currently in, nor does it care about those Japanese pirates and the real reasons for coming to the island. Anyway, she only knows that Li Huamei is a bit shameful. Their bad guys have been fighting and fighting against that 'Lai Island', and they even want to wait until they grow stronger and come back before they can clean up Lai Island?
So, now she simply lined up her ten super battleships outside the Nagasaki port, preparing to completely wipe out the fleet that came to the island family first, and then let the bad guys who didn't take them to play We all know how powerful Admiral Anne and Second Admiral Song Yifeng are!
As a result, a total of ten giant ships (for this era) with four main masts, forty-eight sails, a total length of more than 100 meters, and a displacement of more than 6,000 tons were in the port of Nagasaki. After the outside of the port was blocked and the cannon muzzles were pushed out one after another, like a high wall blocking the outside of the port, the fishing boats, merchant ships and possible warships of the "visitors" just huddled in the port. , and did not dare to come out for three full days.
That's right!
Anne and her fleet had been blocking the port for three full days, and sent letters to the city officials by name, asking them to immediately and unconditionally surrender and hand over the Japanese pirate leader Laishima and his subordinates. All Japanese pirates and ships, otherwise, they will bombard the port on the evening of the third day, destroy all sailboats and destroy all port facilities!
There is even a possibility of extending the bombardment to bombard the entire city?
Today is already the third day, but fortunately it is still morning, not evening, so the giant ships lined up in a row still did not fire their cannons very faithfully, and they are still like towering mountains. Just across the sea.
At this time, in an exquisite wooden house in the port of Nagasaki Castle, the Japanese pirates Suo Jing Laidao, the leader of the Japanese pirates who had been harassing the Ming Dynasty for many years, was sitting on his knees in this room with a group of his dignitaries. Countermeasures were discussed in a quiet room with papered windows tightly closed.
"Tell me everything!"
"Today is the last day, what should I do?"
"Gentlemen, you must have seen the Li family's ship. Although I don't know where they got the giant ship from, but now that it's useless, I'd better think of other ways quickly. !”
"please!"
After the leader Lai Dao finished speaking, he looked at his ministers with bright eyes.
Although he is just a pirate, as the Lai Dao family grows and grows, and as the number of various large-scale ships and armored ships under his command exceeds fifty, he is now able to support his own officials. And the samurai.
However, that's not enough!
Because when he came to the island, he also wanted to enter the shogunate. He also wanted to be a lord, a daimyo, and even a general!
Since the Tokugawa family can kill the Toyotomi family and then dominate the country, then if he comes to the island and grows stronger in the future, maybe he can also subdue Kamichi to kill the Tokugawa family, and then let his Kurushima family become the new shogun?
Yes, that's what he thought and was prepared to do.
But it's too early to think about that kind of thing now, because he has a top priority now, and that is: he must defeat the ten giant ships flying the flag of the Ming Dynasty and the Li family outside the port, and he must defeat those powerful enemies that are coming!
Otherwise, waiting for him to come to the island family, I am afraid that the only way to choose is destruction.
"Report to the master of the family!"
"My subordinates have looked at it carefully in the past three days. Their Li family's ship is indeed very big, at least several times larger than our armored ships!"
"but……"
"Their ship is big, so the speed must be very slow, and the steering must also be very inflexible!"
"So, Patriarch, we can make full use of their weakness and use the armored ship as the leader to rush out to attract their main artillery fire, while following the troop transport and arson ship."
"Once we get closer, if the battle goes well, we can even seize the ship directly!"
"If the war doesn't go well, then set fire to it?"
At this time, a warrior with a clean shaven scalp and only a tuft of hair on his head spoke, and directly stated a strategy that he thought was feasible after careful consideration.
"feasible!"
"However, their ship is big and tall, and there must be a lot of people... Our armored ship gang is only half as tall as theirs. Is it possible that jumping into a gang war will be detrimental to us?"
"It's true!"
"besides……"
"You have also seen that the number of their cannons is simply horrifying! Therefore, hand-to-hand combat is our last chance."
"That's it!"
"If it's not high enough, use rope ladders, cable hooks, or even build human walls to rush up! When hand-to-hand combat begins, those cowards of the Ming Dynasty will never be the match for us warriors!"
"feasible!"
"The ironclad ships have iron armor. Their cannonballs can only hit us once, but they may not be able to sink us. By then, we had already rushed forward, and they definitely had no chance to raise sails, anchor, and escape!"
"At that time, seizing the ships is the top priority! If it doesn't work, burn them all, and don't leave any of them!"
"Great kindness!"
"What a plan!!"
"This is the only way. If we don't make a statement, the Hizen family will really hand us over, and then everything will be really over!"
"Then let's do it!"
In this way, before the final time limit came, a group of warriors and counselors who came to the island family discussed for a while and quickly came up with a plan that they believed to be effective, which was:
Make full use of the fact that the armored ship has iron armor and can withstand artillery bombardment, rush forward out of the port and cover the troop transports and arson ships behind it. After enduring a round of enemy artillery fire, move forward and attack without giving the enemy a chance to turn. Fight hand-to-hand or simply set the ship on fire!
"good!"
"Now that the decision has been made, gentlemen, please drink this glass of sake, and then go and make preparations to launch the attack before noon!"
"I will definitely win this battle when I come to the Dao Family!"
There was no good way, otherwise I wouldn't have had to wait for three days to get to the island.
Therefore, after seeing someone proposing a solution that was not a solution, and which seemed to have a slight chance of winning, he jumped in and raised the exquisite porcelain wine glass in front of him, and motioned for others to fill it with him. drink.
"Must win!"
"Onboard!"
"Onboard!!"
A group of warriors with strange hairstyles screamed strangely, and after drinking all the sake in their glasses, they all stood up noisily, and then bowed deeply to their master, Lai Dao, before turning around. They filed away, preparing to make the final preparations for battle.
…
"..."
٩(๑´0`๑)۶
"Very sleepy……"
(っ̯-｡)
At this time, a certain troubled little girl who was lazily fishing on the "Xiang Feihu" and yawning looked at the little girl who had just risen at a small angle. When it fell, I am worried about how long it will take to reach the western sea without the sun.
"..."
(ಠ~ಠ)
"Hey! Yi Feng, they suddenly feel regretful. We shouldn't have given them three days..."
(lll￢▽￢)
Yes, Anne did regret it a little, because she found that she was stupidly waiting outside the port, and she waited for three full days. This was indeed a bit boring?
At that time, she should have just ignored everything and then issued a request to surrender, instead of waiting here stupidly like now, but others seemed not to give her the warning at all. He didn't take it seriously, he was just busy reinforcing the fort and carrying artillery shells.
At this time, Anne didn't need to guess to know what kind of attitude that port had towards her fleet.
"But……"
"Why did you give them three days?"
"Wouldn't it be better to just give it a day?"
Song Yifeng was also a little resentful, because her sense of the Japanese pirates was not very good. She knew that those people had come to her country decades ago to kill people and set fires for many years. If the Ming Dynasty had not sent troops to assist, I am afraid that The kingdom has long been extinct.
But now, not long after the opponent was defeated, they sent out pirates to frequently harass ports and villages and towns near the sea. Every time she thought of the things that made her gnash her teeth with hatred, she couldn't help but want to order the cannon. , smashing and burning all the pirate ships that were parked in the port and did not dare to come out.
Anyway, in Song Yifeng's opinion, those ships were all suspected of being pirates, and they looked like the kind used by Japanese pirates!
"They don't want to either..."
₍₍٩(＿＿*)₎₎
"But on TV they are all acting like crazy, and then people make decisions like that without paying attention."
ε=(´ο｀*)))Alas
"It would be a little bad if I change my words now..."
｡°(°¯᷄◠¯᷅°)°｡
The letter Anne sent was written at dusk three days later, which is when the sun is about to set today, and the sun has just risen not long ago. She definitely cannot go back on her words at this time, because then It would greatly damage her image as a wise and majestic Admiral Anne, which she would never allow.
But she has also thought about it. Next time, when she waits for the next port, she will only give her one hour to think about it at most. Once the time is up, she will fire on time without replying, and will not wait for a second!
"What is television?"
Song Yifeng was a little strange. She didn't know what the strange words that suddenly appeared in little Annie's mouth meant.
“It was a fun, something to pass the time.”
(′～`●)
“But it was eliminated after the mobile phone came out!”
╮(╯▽╰)╭
"??"
"What's a cell phone?"
Song Yifeng felt that more question marks appeared on her forehead, and the conversation between the two became more and more difficult.
"Mobile phone..."
(^～^;)ゞ
"It's a good thing that many people want to hold on to every day and never let go. They have to carry it with them when going to the toilet and look at it when sleeping. Once they open it, they forget everything about it!"
(ˆ⌣ˆc)
Annie thought of some of the people who waste their lives on their cell phones.
But, to be honest, those games on mobile phones are really fun, but the experience is a little bit not very good, and it is difficult for Admiral Anne to immerse herself in them for a long time.
"???"
Song Yifeng still didn't understand, but she probably understood a little bit, that is: whether it is a mobile phone or a TV, they seem to be dispensable, but at the same time, they can make people lose their focus?
Song Yifeng has always stayed away from things like that, because what she wants is to travel around the world and see more scenery, more people and more things.
"Huh?!"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"There seems to be some movement in the dock..."
(°ー°〃)
Suddenly, Annie stopped talking to Song Yifeng and stopped looking at her fishing rod. Instead, she turned her head and looked strangely towards the bustling port of Nagasaki Port.
What she saw was that there seemed to be large and small boats that began to move under the shouts of small people one by one, and began to turn in an orderly manner?
"Is there any movement?"
"Are you going to come out and surrender?"
Song Yifeng, the second admiral, also quickly grabbed the telescope from an officer on the side and looked towards the port.
"!!"
When Song Yifeng thought about it, she would definitely not need so many ships to surrender. But now, in the monocular, she saw:
The other party actually mobilized so many large ships and small boats at once, at least fifty or sixty ships in total, and there were so many people walking on the ship with weapons. She even saw the gun ports being moved from the gun ports one by one by the opponent in advance. It was pushed out, so it was obvious what those guys wanted to do.
"not good!"
"Annie, they are not here to surrender, they are here to fight!"
After reading it, Song Yifeng turned to Anne beside him and exclaimed a reminder.
"Are they really not going to surrender?"
(°□°〃)
To be honest, Anne really couldn't see what chance those guys had of winning, even if she didn't interfere or cheat, but now, the other party just did what she thought was the stupidest behavior.
"That would be great!"
✧*. ٩(ˊωˋ*)و✧*.
"Quick! Give the order, load the shells and prepare for target practice!!"
₍₍٩(ᐛ)۶₎₎♪
After being surprised, Anne of course cheered, then immediately turned around and gave orders to the first mate and the artillery commander.
soon!
When the fleet of visitors to the island in the Nagasaki port was led by those dark iron-clad ships, they raised their large and small sails and stretched out their oars, and began to accelerate slowly, from the port When it came out and rushed straight towards the Li family's fleet that anchored here to block the port in the outer sea, the gunports on the three decks on the side of the 'Xiang Feihu' facing the port were also opened one by one. , and then the heavy cannon rapid-fire cannons inside were pushed one by one to the standby emplacements by the sailors and fixed.
These scissor-type steel-wood structure super battleships built by Little Annie have three artillery decks. Each ship is equipped with 248 heavy cannon rapid-fire cannons, 120 on each side, so , at this time, when the gun doors on the side of the ten warships facing the port were opened, there were a total of 1,200 heavy cannon rapid-fire cannons aimed at the incoming islands that were preparing to speed towards them. Home fleet.
"Hmm..."
(′～`●)
"Yifeng, why do those little broken boats look so dark?"
(￢д￢.)
There was no rush to fire. After watching for a while, little Annie couldn't help but feel a little doubtful when she saw the leading ships coming to the island.
"It seems like he's wearing iron armor?"
"It should be the kind of armored ship that Sister Li mentioned, right?"
After watching with the telescope for a while, when the enemy ships were getting closer and closer, and when the telescope could faintly see the iron plates and the nails on them, Song Yifeng said hesitantly.
But in fact, those armored ships are not too small, and are even a little bigger than the medium-sized fortune ships that Li Huamei used before. It's just that their ships are really too big now, so when they look at them, they feel that the other party's ship is too big. Extremely small?
"ah!"
"They are still accelerating. What are they doing?"
"Are you trying to hit the boat?"
"wrong!"
"Annie, they seem to want to fight hand-to-hand. There are many small boats behind their armored ships, and they are full of people!!"
At this time, Song Yifeng saw a new situation and hurriedly reported to the Grand Admiral Xiao Annihui who was still watching.
"Hand-to-hand combat?"
(๑•̌.•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
"There are at least a thousand people on each of our ships. We only have a few people with a flintlock gun. Are they still approaching to fight?"
(ﾟДﾟ≡ﾟдﾟ)!?
Anne was a little shocked and said that she had no idea what those Japanese pirates were thinking. They actually wanted to fight in a way that was the most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most unlikely way to win?
"never mind!"
(ಠ~ಠ)
"They should have entered our shelling range, right?"
(°ー°〃)
"It seems that we have already entered. Our cannons have a relatively long range?"
"Is it right?"
Song Yifeng was also a little unsure, and then she had to look at the artillery officer on the side who was still waiting for orders.
"Report to the two admirals!"
"Not only those enemy ships, but currently the port and part of the city of Nagasaki Castle are also within the coverage of our cannons!"
"The quality and performance of our heavy cannon rapid-fire cannons are very good. If they are overloaded with ammunition, they can even cover the entire city!!"
the gunnery officer said proudly.
There is no doubt that the quality of the cannons made by their Grand Admiral Anne is beyond imagination, and the reason why he did not speak just now was because he wanted to bring the enemy closer so that the gunners could shoot more accurately.
"Is that so?"
|ू•ૅω•́)ᵎᵎ
"Then let's fire!"
↜(ψ｀▽′)o
Following Anne's order, the order was quickly passed on by the flag bearer, and then a total of ten super battleships and a total of one hundred and twenty artillery pieces, which added up to a total of one thousand or two hundred cannons, began to roar in sequence.
boom! boom!
boom! boom! boom!
Then, the cannons sprayed sparks from their muzzles, and the cannonballs roared and dragged black tracks towards the enemy's chaotic fleet.
The gunners of those fired artillery quickly and skillfully used a wet sponge wrapped in a long pole to clean the barrel, extinguishing the remaining sparks inside to prevent the ignition of the propellant package. Then someone loaded and compacted the powder package and shells, and then As the gunners once again reset the retractable artillery and pushed it out of the muzzle.
boom! boom!
boom! boom! boom!
In less than a minute, before the first salvo of the 1,200 artillery pieces had been fired one by one, they had already finished loading.
After a few minutes……
There would be no hostile targets worth shooting at.
The fleet that came to the island, even the iron-clad ships, were bombarded by so many high-performance heavy cannon rapid-fire cannons. After just a few rounds and nearly 5,000 shells, they were all reduced to pieces and destroyed. After the explosion of some explosive bombs, the entire fleet was left with only a pile of burning broken ship-shaped driftwood and a pile of large and small wood chips on the sea.
Of course, there must be floating corpses drifting with the current and some survivors who were lucky enough to survive. At this time, they could only hold the wooden planks and howl at the sea.
The fleet that came to the island, which may have more than fifty ships and at least thousands of warriors, pirates and sailors, did not even have a chance to surrender with a white flag, and were bombarded by those overwhelming and terrifying cannonballs. It became a pile of debris on the sea, even the armored ships that were said to be protected by iron armor were no exception.
"Okay, so awesome..."
Song Yifeng was immediately stunned.
At the same time, her ears were still buzzing, which was just shaken by the roar of the cannons on her ship, so that now she could hardly even hear her own voice.
"It seems that I accidentally made the cannon too well..."
(^～^;)ゞ
"People originally thought that this kind of cannon was not very powerful, and they still had a chance to surrender..."
(“▔□▔)
Anne also discovered at this time that it seemed that she had accidentally made the cannons of these ships a little too sophisticated?
When she used magic to smelt steel and cast it herself, the caliber, density, weight and other values of those cannons reached the extreme that this kind of muzzle-loading cannon could achieve, so that their power and range were And accuracy is really too good to be true?
"ah?"
"You want to fire at the port to let them know how powerful we are and make them surrender?"
"OK!"
"no problem!"
"Quick! Fire at the port and force them to surrender!!!"
Song Yifeng, whose ears were still ringing and who couldn't quite hear what Anne said, quickly made up her mind from the few words she heard, and then issued her order directly and brazenly to the artillery officer.
boom! boom!
boom! boom! boom!
After hearing the second admiral's order, the officers did not dare to neglect and hurriedly asked the gunners to raise the muzzle.
Then, with the waving of the flag and the shouts of the artillery officers, the cannons that had stopped for a while began to roar again, blasting towards the dock and the forts where the fleet had been assembled on the island.
Large tracts of shells rained down on important places such as slipways, warehouses, houses, various moored ships, etc., and those places were instantly enveloped in black smoke and a sea of fire from exploding shells.
"??"
(๑•̌.•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
Anne said that she didn’t mean that at all!
However, since the fight was over now, and considering that the port really had no intention of surrendering to her before, she decided not to interfere for now and let them bombard it for a while.
