"Raise your hands to adjust the sails, and the helmsman holds the rudder, and we will move forward according to the current route; Fourth Brother, send some more men to the cabin and ask them to lower the big oars to add extra power to the ship!" Kang Lin Inside the observation post of the sand ship, Wu Fang, the ship's master dressed in smart attire, was holding the rope on the mast with one hand like an ape, and holding a copper monocular telescope with the other to observe the sea not far away. They had left Donghai Weiqian Shanshui Village. After sailing on the sea for several hours, even the color of the sea water on the bottom of the ship changed from the original light blue to the current dark blue, but still no discovery was made of the large amount of grain, grass, supplies, and artillery loaded from the Chiyang private ship. Another fleet set out early from the port, and according to the prior agreement, it consisted of a thousand-stone sand ship, a four-hundred-meter sentry ship, a three-hundred-meter sea ship, an eight-foot centipede ship, and a six-foot centipede ship. The group of boats should have arrived at this sea area earlier, and then anchored here to wait for their arrival. But now that Wu Fang looked left and right, they couldn't find any trace of those ships from the field of view of the monocular telescope. Therefore, there was nothing they could do. This guy could only order his men to adjust the sails, lower the oars, and drive forward some distance! In this guy's simple thinking, the transport fleet with five large and small ships should have waited for a long time for him to arrive before choosing to pull anchor and set sail in advance to the dry goods island where the Chiyang fleet was temporarily stationed. At this moment, he just wanted to With a little more effort, it is very possible to catch up with those friends who left first within an hour or two!
"Okay, steward, I'll go down and arrange it right now!" Without too many words or too much delay, the fourth child, wearing a cloth coat and wearing bare feet, got out of the cabin in a hurry and began to convey his orders. So six large oars were quickly stretched out from both sides of the sand boat to add extra power to the ship. The five-hundred-stone sand boat slowly began to accelerate, and the heavy hull suddenly broke through the heavy water and rushed forward. It was a long way out, and when the bird boats next to it saw the flagship speeding up, they also put down their oars and oars and began to speed up their own boats. As an armed group that is still on the rise, the Chiyang Fleet has a lot of internal rules. Although it does not reach the level of prohibition, its execution ability is still very good, and they are also very united. They also come from the Ming Dynasty in another world. Any force in this world seems to be out of place. They don't think that they are the aborigines of this world. They always think that they are the real descendants of Yan and Huang, the supreme citizens of the heaven! Therefore, as soon as the leader of the team speaks, they will immediately put down the work at hand and start to implement it seriously.
"We have two general cannons on board, two small Folang machines, and two squatting tiger cannons. Each of the two bird ships has one Ye Gong Shen gun and Xuanzi gun, two large Folang machines, and tiger squatting cannons. Two, totaling sixteen large and small artillery pieces. As long as we don’t encounter a large group of pirates and Ming army navy, no one should be able to pose any threat to us..." As the temporary fleet continued to advance northward, the original empty space At some point, a large number of broken wooden boards and corpses turned white floated on the sea surface of Yiwu. This attracted the attention of Wu Fang, the ship's manager! After several hours of non-stop travel, their temporary fleet was already not far from Shaihuo Island. The presence of these things floating upstream at this moment meant that a battle was taking place on the sea not far away, or that there had been a battle, and these two No matter which one they are, they are not what the current temporary fleet hopes to encounter! Therefore, he immediately put down the monocular telescope in his hand, ran down the mast like an ape, came to the supreme commander of the fleet, the new East China Sea Guard guerrilla Baihu Kanglin, and began to whisper to him what he had discovered. , and the latter, after listening to his report, was also greatly surprised. Shaihuo Island deviated from the normal channel. Even if a ship occasionally drifted here in a storm, there shouldn't be so many debris and debris. Floating corpse, is there something wrong with my old camp? The next moment, Kanglin Kangdabaihu, who realized the seriousness of the problem, immediately ordered all ships to speed up and rush towards their home base! After all, there is the basic base that he relies on to strengthen his strength, and the pretty girl Xiao'e who regards him as his beloved. Once someone takes advantage of him, the consequences will be disastrous!
Moreover, he also wanted to test the specific power of the artillery in his hand! Because as the saying goes, "a sight is worth a hundred hearings." The artillery purchased from Donghaiweiku has been restored to its peak condition after being modified and repaired by Conlin's artillery brand. But how far can it be used? Its power needs to be tested in actual combat. Therefore, now in front of hundreds of households in Kangda, there are both unpredictable dangers and golden opportunities. If used properly, not only can the power and range of these artillery be successfully checked, but also the army can train one of them. Elite and usable artillery...
As soon as he thought of this, Kang Lin immediately waved his hand and called for his followers, and began to put on the clothes for himself. Now he could barely be regarded as having some status. Naturally, he would not go to the battlefield wearing a cheap black cloth robe like before. So, He needs an assistant to help him put on his armor. His helmet is a Ming army standard six-petal iron pointed helmet, and his armor is a bright silver chainmail from a primary weapon box. Although it is not heavy, what is wearing it? Because it was cumbersome, by the time this guy put on his armor and came to the deck again, it was already two moments later. While he was putting on his armor, the three sailboats were heading northeast for another six or seven miles! During this period, in order to save the physical strength of the sailors and prepare for the coming battle at sea, Wu Fang, the ship's chief steward, had ordered his subordinates to stop rowing and boosting. Therefore, the entire temporary fleet now only relied on sails to push forward. The wind was blowing smoothly today, so they were still able to maintain a good speed. With their continuous efforts, the end point of the trip, Shaohuo Island, was already looming in the field of view of the monocular telescope!
Black smoke, white smoke, fire, arrows, bullets, Ming-style sailboats that quickly moved their oars and sails together, and indigenous eight-legged boats, large and small, mottled and chaotic... all of these quickly filled Kang Lin With the eyes of the Wu side, my God, my (our) old camp was suddenly attacked! The two people, both with shocked expressions on their faces, quickly looked at each other and understood what the other person meant. The next moment, with the roars of the captain and captain, the entire fleet came to life like a wild beast. The sailors continued to stick to their posts and try their best to make the sailboat under their feet move as fast as possible. , and the artillerymen and infantrymen tried their best to load the large and small artillery carried on the ship! They have artillery, gunpowder, and piles of large and small lead bullets and artillery shells, so they are not afraid of the coming battle at all. On the contrary, they have received preliminary artillery shooting training and are still a little eager to try the coming battle. They want to You need to use the artillery on the ship to bombard those enemies that don't look strong, and then rescue your companions on the island, and win more meritorious deeds for yourself! As mentioned above, the Chiyang fleet is now in a period of rising strength. As long as it can achieve military exploits and show enough loyalty to the leader Kang Lin, it can easily rise to the top. And our dynasty is an official-based country. There is almost no one who doesn’t want to be a senior official, so this group of young and strong soldiers from the guard station from another world cannot help but fight bravely to be the first!
"Master Baihu, there, you see, our transport fleet is there. It turns out that they are not missing, but they got the news and joined the battle before us..." And, what is even more exciting is that the temporary fleet Another fleet that had been waiting for a long time also appeared in their eyes at this moment. It turned out that the ones that fired the cannons to bombard the indigenous eight-legged boats were the transport fleet equipped with Xiaolang aircraft and tiger crouching cannons. In order to load more cargo, they , artillery and livestock, they are simply equipped with small-caliber artillery with insufficient power. However, these one-pound cannons or even five-ounce cannons placed on European Galen ships can only serve as broadside cannons, but they account for 10% of the naval battle with the indigenous people. Take advantage! Think about it, dozens or even hundreds of hot lead bullets carrying the power of travertine and cracked rocks fiercely swept through the extremely crude eight-legged boats of the indigenous people. The Mamat people were really made of steel and iron, and could withstand a blast. The wheel was definitely unable to withstand the second round of attacks. Therefore, by the time the three sailing ships of the temporary fleet actually arrived at the battlefield, the Mamat people's original nearly one hundred eight-legged ships had sunk, and more than ten were injured. The remaining eight-legged ships also began to collapse and escape under the fierce and rapid bombardment of the transport fleet!
"Qi Duo, lead the people to kill those cowards who fled, and ask them to come back and attack the enemy ships. In addition, send a signal to the Fuso Ronin group and ask them to come over and deal with these fire-breathing aliens..." outside of Shaihuo Island , on an extremely luxurious indigenous warship made of six canoes put together, the leader of the Mamat tribe, Gaishe, braved the lead bullets continuously fired by the Fo Lang machine, raised the iron staff in his hand, and was commanding The loyal Krell under his command beheaded the indigenous warriors who escaped from the battle. Although he did not know the art of war of the Han people, he also knew that it would be difficult to lead the team when the people's hearts were dispersed. In his view, killing was just a means. What was important was that Get those indigenous warriors back and continue to help him attack enemy ships. He knew that the alien warships were powerful, otherwise they would not be enough to carry those ferocious and cunning alien bastards roaming the sea, killing people, looting wealth, and destroying tribes. However, they were not absolutely without flaws. As long as he could command them properly, they might not be able to carry them. It was impossible to tear off a piece of flesh from the opponent's body, including the bones, so he ordered his confidant Chido to use rockets to notify the Japanese ships hiding on the other side of the island to come to the rescue. He believed that as long as these battle-hardened dwarfs joined the battle, The chance of defeating the enemy will be more than 70%. After all, in order to invite these Japanese dwarfs who only have interests in their eyes to come to help, I have to spend a lot of blood, five hundred taels of white silver, plus fifty A strong warrior from the vassal tribe can't just be wasted like this!
