Donkey Dan secretly thought it was a pity, such a beautiful building would soon turn into a pile of rubble and a pool of blood.
The musketeers hiding on the back of the roof of the two-story zigzag building soon discovered the explosive package thrown by the heartless cannon.
Because of this kind of gunpowder projectile, don’t think about the muzzle velocity. The muzzle velocity is about the same as that of a trebuchet. And the trajectory is unpredictable. The dynamite packet looked like a cut-out sausage segment. Flat cylinder.
How could something like this be aerodynamic? Therefore, it flies in a rolling form. So this kind of thing, the first half is a parabola, and the second half is a free fall. The trajectory is also unpredictable.
Fortunately, the range is also close, more than 100 meters. This thing has a lot of explosives and a large killing radius. If the accurate head fails, the power will make up for it. The explosion radius was almost thirty meters. It's completely acceptable to miss the mark.
As for who falls on it, that is entirely a matter of character. We cannot blame society for our misery.
This thing is just like the missiles made in the Northern Peninsula, giving the beautiful country a headache.
Because of poor technique, the warhead rolled and flew. Not even the launcher could predict its trajectory, let alone where it would land. Not to mention that the beautiful country wants to intercept.
So there is a joke in beautiful China.
Two missile defense systems for the Bald Eagle. TMD and NMD can neither intercept advanced missiles nor backward missiles. It's pure nonsense. As for the later Zangde and the like, that's all. Air defense and air defense.
At that time, the bald eagle took a tube of washing powder and said, Silly Damu, you have a big weapon, I will beat you. Silly Damu said I didn’t. Bald Eagle says you have. I said if you have it, you have it.
Now, the Northern Peninsula said to the Bald Eagle: "I have a big killer weapon." The Bald Eagle said: "No." The Northern Peninsula said: "Not only do I have it, I will throw it into your house and kill you all." Eagle said: "You don't have it. If I say you don't have it, you don't have it."
The five explosive packets flew very slowly, and the fuses were emitting green smoke, which the musketeers could see clearly. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
This was the first time in their lives that they could actually throw explosives like this.
Such a huge explosive charge, even if it is black powder, is frightening to death.
Three explosive charges fell on the roof and dome of the church, and two fell in the courtyard.
Boom boom boom! Five huge explosions directly covered the entire church. Smoke and broken masonry flew everywhere. Even the servants saw that on the second floor of the zigzag building, the hollow stone window lattice violently spewed out thick smoke and countless gravel.
The Spanish Governor and others were still praying in the church, when suddenly a huge explosion directly penetrated the dome. Glass and stones rained down.
The Governor is only in his thirties this year and is still very agile. He suddenly dodged under the stone table. Immediately afterwards, a crackling rain of glass and stones fell down. The man who prayed was beaten to the head and bleeding.
Many people were directly hit to death by large rocks. Many people had their bones broken and their muscles broken by the smash, and they were rolling on the ground and wailing. The Governor was horrified to find that the priest had passed out. He stared at a pair of dead fish eyes and lay there motionless.
"All personnel squat against the wall and leave the center," Captain Simon Carlos shouted. He was in a corridor just now.
Because he was guarding the door and carrying a gun as a guard, he was not hit.
He quickly ordered the soldiers to drag away the dead and injured.
The magnificent cathedral's lobby was hollowed out, and three large holes appeared in the dome. All can see the sky. The ground was a mess. All kinds of stone sculptures were blown to pieces and fell down.
At this time, a large tin-rolled loudspeaker shouted from a tower outside.
"Listen, Spaniards, you are given one hour to surrender unconditionally. Otherwise, we will fire one round every quarter of an hour. After one hour, we will completely destroy this place. You don't need to surrender."
The person shouting outside was a local Han man who was hired temporarily. Speaking in broken Spanish, he kept shouting this sentence over and over again.
The Governor was depressed. He did not expect that the Ming army had such powerful weapons. Until now, he had no idea what these weapons looked like.
He stood up, shook the dust off his clothes, and walked into the passage, where it was safer. He said to Carlos: "Take these people to the basement. It will be safer there. At least these bombs will not hit them."
"Yes, Your Excellency."
"Call Simon and tell them to cease fire immediately."
After this round of explosions, the Spaniards have understood that their resistance is meaningless. As long as the Ming army continued to throw such explosive packets unhurriedly, they would all be killed sooner or later. It is only a matter of time before these buildings are destroyed.
Simon came to the passage, saluted the Governor, and asked: "Your Excellency, why did we stop firing? If so, they will surround us soon."
"There is no point in continuing the fight. I am sending you to negotiate with the commander of the Ming Army on my behalf. We are willing to hand over the English fleet and hope they can withdraw from here. If it is not possible, we agree to compensate some military expenses." The Governor said. .
Soon, white flags began waving on the towers.
"It seems that the Spaniards can't even withstand a round of heartless artillery. You see, they have asked to send people to negotiate with us." Donkey Dan said with a sneer.
"Team leader, do we agree?" asked squadron leader Li Siyuan.
"This is not something we can decide. Let's ask the master."
An hour later, Simon met Yang Fan on the Royal Clipper. When he boarded this huge sailing ship, his mouth opened in shock. He swore that he had never seen such a huge sailing ship in his life.
He had heard before that two hundred years ago, the Chinese organized a huge fleet. Many cruises around the world. Their boats were as huge as the hills. He always thought these were fairy tales.
But the giant ship in front of him completely convinced him that these legends were probably true. Because he saw a huge sailing ship with his own eyes. Until he stood in front of Yang Fan, his head was still covered.
The luxurious decoration of this ship and the beautiful uniforms of the sailors on board dazzled him.
The capacity of merchant ships in this era ranged from 400 to 800 tons. The displacement of a Galen ship is only 500 to 1,000 tons. However, some first-class battleships have a displacement of between 1,000 and 2,000 tons. In any country, these battleships are national treasures.
At this time, it was in the formative period of the sailing battleship. At this time, galleys were still very popular in the Mediterranean and Baltic Seas. Emerging maritime hegemons, such as Spain, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, have begun to establish standards for sailing battleships.
Finally, after 1650, the new battleship classification was finally established. Sail battleships entered the battleship era.
However, this five-thousand-ton sailing ship completely overturned his cognition.
Yang Fan sat on the chair and was speechless when he saw the Spanish major who was shocked and lost his mind. Lin Yuan had no choice but to ask him to sit down at the other end of the long table.
"Actually, you have no room for negotiation. The reason why I met you is to tell you clearly that you have no way out except unconditional surrender. All guilty people will be punished by Ming law. However, those who are not guilty will not Be held accountable. But you must work under our arrangements. Until your king, or your family, provides enough ransom in exchange for your freedom."
