Qin Yun's heart sank, ten battleships?
Where did it come from?
"Explore again!"
"promise!"
Yang Yong supported Qin Yun, while Han Jiangxue on the side stepped forward and took out the medicine to protect his internal organs. Qin Yun waved his hand.
"No, just help me take a rest!"
In fact, although Qin Yun suffered serious internal injuries, the medicinal effect of the Nine Jue Divine Flower in his body was slowly spreading.
To put it bluntly, this kind of injury looks like it is oozing, but in fact it is like drizzle. It can recover in a few days.
But the problem is, now that the artillery shells of the Qiongzhou Navy Fleet are almost exhausted, how should they face the enemy?
Qin Yun had a bad feeling, and it turned out to be true.
Just hearing a "boom", the local fleet opened fire.
Zheng Jing immediately ordered a counterattack, but the effect was not good. The opponent seemed to have calculated the ultimate range of Qin Yun's artillery.
After the fight, he ran away and swam far away on the sea.
Soon, the Qiongzhou Navy's artillery shells were about to bottom out, and the pirates on the shore also became commotion.
Qin Yun knew that he couldn't go on like this.
He immediately ordered: "Avoid the battle! Fishing boats and speedboats scatter in all directions."
"The Qiongzhou No. 1 boiler is activated, using the speed advantage to contain the enemy."
"Your Majesty, please quickly board the ship!"
Qin Yun shook his head: "No, even if we can get on the ship and leave, how can the thousands of sergeants who are following us leave? The fishing boat cannot outrun the opponent's big ship."
"If we leave, won't we kill them?"
"Listen to my order. Except for the Qiongzhou No. 1, the other ships will abandon their ships and go ashore. Beware of pirate counterattacks."
"If anyone resists, he will be killed without mercy!"
"After landing, we quickly built defenses. If we don't have artillery, we still have guns. The enemy won't be able to attack us for a while."
"promise!"
Everyone took action quickly, but many people were very distressed.
After all, there are artillery pieces on the fishing boats, and they are all brand new. If they are just left in the harbor, wouldn't they be destroyed by the enemy?
A sergeant asked for orders: "Your Majesty, the ship is here and the people are here, but I will not leave my humble duty!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, we can dismantle the cannon and transport it to the shore."
Qin Yun's eyes narrowed: "The enemy will not give you this time. If you lose the ship if you protect the artillery, you will also lose the people. If you give up the artillery to protect the people, you can build the artillery again. Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and execute the order!"
The sergeants left the fishing boat very reluctantly. Of course, they took all the materials they could before leaving.
The Qiongzhou No. 1 gathered all the artillery shells and rushed towards the enemy fleet with one against ten. Its goal was not to destroy the opponent, but to contain it.
"Master Zheng, we will fight them!"
Zheng Jing glanced back at Kuaye Island.
"No, our mission is to contain the enemy!"
"How many shells and coal are left on the ship?"
"Sir, there are less than ten shells and there is plenty of coal."
"Ten rounds?"
Zheng Jing's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and then he waved his hand and ordered.
"Instruct the boiler room to increase the firepower and turn on the power."
"The left rudder is full, and we rush towards the enemy fleet. While moving, the main and secondary guns fire at the same time. The salvo of shells must hit the ship as one."
The first mate on the ship was stunned: "Sir, if we rush over like this, aren't we putting a sheep in a tiger's mouth?"
Zheng Jing shook his head: "Have you not noticed that the enemy ship must stop sideways before it can fire? And we have a natural advantage. We can adjust the direction of the main gun and fire while moving."
The first mate was delighted: "I understand, little man!"
At the same time, everyone watching the battle on the shore watched the Qiongzhou No. 1 rush towards the enemy fleet group as if it was death, and burst out with exclamations.
Yue Qing: "Are they seeking death? There are obviously no more shells."
Qin Yun sat on the boulder and looked into the distance with a telescope.
"not necessarily!"
Yang Yong asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, what does Zheng Jing want to do?"
Qin Yun: "He wants to break up the local fleet formation. Although the opponent's ship is large, it is difficult to turn around. Moreover, they have no steam power, so their maneuverability is much worse."
"Another thing is that they can't fire guns while moving, and they can't make large-scale maneuvers, otherwise the hull will disintegrate."
"What a great Zheng Jing, I saw him right!"
Han Jiangxue frowned: "But in this way, he will also put himself in danger. Once the other party stops being confused and reacts and fires at him, he will definitely die!"
Qin Yun exhaled softly: "This is what I admire about him. The brave will win when we meet on a narrow road. It depends on luck."
The generals were shocked, it still depends on luck?
At the same time, the Ryukyu Fleet.
Qin Shan stood on the deck and looked at Broadleaf Island.
"My dear concubine, let's drive over to Kuaye Island to level it and capture Qin Yun alive!"
Tanaka Haruko said with a smile: "My lord, don't worry, this time we have brought enough artillery shells, Broadleaf Island is just a trap in a jar!"
But then a sailor came to report.
"Your Majesty, Princess, that black ship is rushing towards us!"
The two paused for a while, and Qin Shan spoke first.
"Well done, let me shoot at the black ship!"
"promise!"
"Boom~~"
Ten large ships came sideways and opened fire on the approaching Qiongzhou No. 1.
At the same time, Zheng Jing, who had calculated the distance, stood in the cab and hurriedly gave orders.
"Full right rudder, move around to the enemy ship's fire blind spot!"
"promise!"
On the Qiongzhou No. 1, all the officers and soldiers on the ship worked together, and the dark iron ship actually drew a beautiful arc on the sea and turned away.
The artillery fire of the Ryukyu fleet failed.
Qin Shan was so angry that he was itching his teeth: "You trash, you can't even hit me. Let me, Yang Fan, chase you!"
Tanaka Haruko stopped him in time: "My lord, you can't chase me!"
Qin Shan: "Why can't you chase me? I will tear that ship alive."
Tanaka Haruko rolled her eyes at this idiot speechlessly, and with a wave of her sleeves, Qin Shan's eyes suddenly darkened, and he fell to the ground.
"The prince has a brain disease, bring him in!"
Without even raising their heads, they called on several sailors to carry Qin Shan into the cabin.
Tanaka Haruko stood on the high platform and looked far away.
"Send the order, adjust the hull, fire again, aim and hit!"
"yes."
"Boom~"
At this time, Qiongzhou No. 1, with its right chord fully drawn, was faced with overwhelming artillery fire.
However, Zheng Jing had already predicted the opponent's prediction, and he gave the order.
"Full left rudder, turn straight rudder, full power, main and secondary guns ready."
"The main and secondary guns are ready!"
Zheng Jing: "Target, enemy flagship, fire!"
"Boom~~"
After Zheng Jing made another zigzag move, several cannonballs flew towards the ship where Tanaka Haruko was, and one of them even landed on the deck.
"Boom~~"
Sawdust was flying, and everyone on the ship was so anxious that their heads were spinning. Fortunately, he was not bad luck and did not fall into the shell cabin and cause an explosion, but this shell still caused water leakage in the cabin.
The boatmen responsible for rowing the oars below climbed onto the deck.
"The seawater is pouring in and the ship is going to sink!"
Not long after, the ship tilted. If another shot was fired at this time, the ship would be destroyed and everyone would be killed. But Zheng Jing had no shells in his hand.
At this time, other large ships were also targeting Qiongzhou No. 1.
"fire!"
Qiongzhou No. 1 unfortunately lost its hand because it was too close.
But after all, it was made of steel, and the opponent's artillery was just the most primitive iron ball bomb, causing minimal damage, with only one cabin leaking.
"Report, play the left string again, sea water enters the prisoner cabin."
"Close the shot cabin on the left side, open the capture power cabin on the right side and introduce seawater into the cabin to keep the ship balanced!"
"Notify the power room and rush over at full speed!"
"promise!"
Phew~
On Kuaye Island, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Qiongzhou No. 1 breaking out of the encirclement. Zheng Jing won the bet!
Qin Yun smiled: "This Zheng Jing is bold and careful!"
Yang Yong smiled and said: "Now, the other party will definitely not dare to attack rashly again. Zheng Jing is leading the ship outside and will definitely contact Qiongzhou No. 2. When the time comes, we will cooperate internally and externally."
Qin Yun shook his head: "Qiongzhou No. 2 is on Haitang Island. It has no steam power after all, but it can still be entangled if it can replenish some shells. We only need to withstand it for half a day!"
"Go ahead and set up defenses!"
"yes."
