Kingdom of Goryeo, Ganghwa Remaining Division, Ganghwa Strait.

"???????????????????????????????????????????????????, ??????????????????,???????????????????????????? ? (Order to go down and ask the auxiliary ships to speed up, dock quickly, and start transferring soldiers to the shore)!" Cui Mingji's face finally became tense when he saw his fellow ship bravely blocking in front of the admiral's ship and taking a beating from the shells. He couldn't help it anymore, and his usual energy-raising skills were all forgotten by him at this moment. The dignified master of the second-ranked Jinshi didn't care about his own majesty. He just urged his auxiliary ships to speed up their sailing and seize the time to load the ships. The infantry soldiers are sent to Ganghwadashima!

"The helmsman held on to the rudder, the rigging crew adjusted the sails, turned the ship sideways, and used the starboard Shenfei cannon to deal with the enemy's cabin ship. The other gun groups aimed at the enemy's auxiliary ships, fired freely, and hit him hard. !" However, how could Lin Ashui, deputy commander-in-chief of the Chiyang Expedition Fleet, let him get his wish! This guy is a shaven-headed Han Chinese. He belongs to the group of original sinners in the emerging group Chiyang. He is now eager to find opportunities for performance. How can he let the duck he has obtained grow wings and fly! So under his flag command, the sloop swung over with difficulty, aiming its starboard side covered with black holes at Cui Mingji's ship! The next moment, as the gunner commander gave the order to fire, the two heavy Shenfei cannons suddenly retreated. In an instant, two large stone balls broke away from the shackles of the mother guns with thick smoke, and smashed hard. It hit the board of the house boat with such force that it almost caused the huge coffin boat to capsize to the right!

"Okay, let's hit it like this, little Suozi, hurry up and bring me the gun! Grandma, this gun is really powerful. Compared with this thing, Hu Laoba The large Folangji is just a grandson..." Seeing that the hit was successful, the bearded gunner of the Shenfei Artillery Group laughed excitedly, and then under his urging, several strong boys The son immediately brought the heavy musket and mounted it on the Shenfei Cannon. Finally, with the roar of the old man, the thousand-jin cannon suddenly retreated backwards again, spraying out orange flames and two huge stone balls!

“????,?????????????????????,?????????????????????? ???,??????????????????????????????(Sir, get down from there quickly, the enemy's artillery fire is too It's so violent, it's dangerous to stay there any longer!" Dong Dong, two huge stone bullets hit the wooden house boat again. The deputy general, Yin Gongshan, had quick eyesight and quick hands and grabbed a rope to barely prevent himself from falling over. But when When he turned to look at the command building, he couldn't help but feel a cold sweat for his immediate superior, Cui Mingji and Cui Banshu, even though he had been on the battlefield for half his life! The net scarf on the head of this second-rank official of the imperial court was gone, and his long hair was scattered on his shoulders. He fell to the ground like a madman, but the soldier next to him gave him a key hold. Otherwise, with those two heavy and powerful blows just now, even if this guy was not thrown into the sea, he would be thrown off the seven or eight foot high command building!

“??????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????,? ??????????????????,??????????????????????????????? ??????????.??????????????????????????????(The enemy has such heavy weapons, no wonder there are five or six ships If you dare to invade my Dagoryeo waters, retreat, quickly pay the money to retreat, and let the wooden house boats cover and assist the ships in retreating. Today's battle cannot go on!" After being helped up from the ground, Cui Mingji sorted out his thoughts briefly, and then agreed with himself Lieutenant General's opinion! This battle really can't go on like this. Knowing that the enemy has the advantage in artillery, you still play long-range shooting with others. This is not seeking death. Why not take advantage of the main force of the fleet to still cover the auxiliary ships and withdraw them? The best strategy is to set up a temporary camp at the foot of Mount Su, and then reorganize the troops and horses, and figure it out slowly!

"Everyone, pay attention. The Koreans are about to run away. Let's rush up and beat up the drowned dog!" Cui Mingji and Yin Gongshan want to run away, but how can the two-ship formation led by Gu Wenlai let them do so! After the efforts of a group of sailors, the sloop turned around with difficulty in the strait and aimed the loaded port gun group at the former's ship! Next, accompanied by a huge roar, two seven-pound cannonballs, two six-pound cannonballs, plus two more than twenty-kilogram stone bullets, a total of six cannonballs carrying the power of Dongjin cracked stone, It hit the Korean wooden house boat that was at a loss of ground!

“??????,?????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????????,??????????????????????????? ????????????. (General Ju, use your ships to block the enemy's attack and cut off the fleet's rear! Remember, at critical moments, let the soldiers use rockets and blunderbuss to stop the enemy)!" Seeing this The enemy ship fired six more powerful cannonballs. Yin Gongshan could no longer sit still. The veteran ruffian, with strong hands that did not match his age, picked up Cui Mingji and rolled him into the boat leading to the rowing cabin. In the corridor, only this guy's order was left in the air! What happened next also proved how wise and wise his response was. Except for two of the six heavy cannonballs that missed due to angle problems, all the others hit the wooden house boat! So in an instant, it was like a water and land dojo on the deck. Red, yellow, white, black, green, all kinds of colors were everywhere, which only made people feel hairy and scared! Just now, if Yin Gongshan had been slower, he and Mr. Cui Mingji would be the ones lying on the deck screaming hoarsely!

"??????????,??????????????,??????????????? (shoot the arrow, shoot the rocket quickly , stop those Japanese pirates!" Pushing away the corpse of the soldier lying on him, Goryeo general Yunsheng grabbed the plank of the wooden house boat and climbed up with difficulty, and then he saw the corpses and wounded all over the deck! But he had no time to care about this now. The orders of Cui Panshu and Vice General Yin were still ringing in his ears, so the man shook his head, pulled out the long knife from his waist, and shouted to his subordinates at the top of his lungs. Got the order to launch the rocket!

"The reserve troops are ready. The Koreans are going to launch rockets and fire spears. Everyone fills the pumps with water and pours sand and soil on the deck. When there are fires somewhere, rush to put them out..." Arrows rained down like this. locust! Gu Wenlai witnessed the flaming arrows being thrown high by the Korean archers. He was frightened and immediately ordered the reserve soldiers who were carrying ammunition to put down their work and take out the guy who was putting out the fire. What happened next? The incident also confirmed how correct his idea was! In addition to the 20 or 30 people who were shot and fell to the ground on the two wooden houses, there were also 30 or 40 navy soldiers with all beards and tails who were still capable of fighting. No, as soon as they heard the new order from their general, these Korean men who had practiced bows and arrows since childhood immediately took out the bows and arrows from the double plugs on their backs, then lit the arrows, and fired a volley of rockets at the enemy ship!

"Tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk..." Sure enough, under the throws of Goryeo archers, the flaming arrows continued to fall on the sloop and the eight-foot centipede boat. The distance was so far and the force was so strong that it was like Chi Yang's dryness. The flag army and reserve soldiers were stunned to see it! You know, the distance between the two sides is a full 120 or 30 steps. Even a matchlock gun that uses chemical energy to propel lead bullets may not be able to shoot such a distance. However, the Koreans did it with the horn bow that fired light arrows. They transformed into sniper rifles. Not only did the arrows easily fly over this distance, but when they were inserted into the deck of the Red Sun dhow, the tails of the arrows were still trembling! However, the flag army under Gu Wenlai had no time to appreciate their masterpiece. The fire started to lick the sails, decks of the sloop, and the bodies of the injured people under the blow of the sea breeze! Fortunately, the reservists had received instructions from the chief steward in advance and prepared pumps and sand for fire extinguishing, and were able to put out the rising fire in time!

Otherwise, the Koreans' long-range bow and arrow shooting would definitely cause more damage to Chiyang than their artillery! At least, the latter never posed any threat to the Chiyang sloop, but the rocket attack caused real trouble to the Chiyang Banner Army. If it weren't for Gu Wenlai's good command this time, the Koreans would have shot The rocket would ignite the sloop's sails, and once the sails were ignited, no matter how many heavy guns the sloop was equipped with, it would be useless against these cabin boats powered by human oars. After all, what the dhow is most proud of is not its heavy guns, but its own flexibility and high speed. If the power source, the sail, is ignited by a rocket, it is like a bird with its wings broken and a fish with its wings scraped. The scales are the same, he will definitely become a lamb to be slaughtered on the chopping block!

Therefore, in order to prevent the Koreans from continuing to fire rockets and threaten their own ships, Gu Wenlai decisively ordered his artillerymen to use full firepower! Two Ye Gong Shen guns, two Sky-shaped cannons, two Ye Gong Shen cannons, and two Divine flying cannons, a total of six artillery pieces, large and small, fired shells continuously, causing heavy casualties and making a mess on the Korean wooden house ship! However, even so, Scimitar Gu Dalang had no intention of letting go of these Koreans who wanted to burn their ships into big torches. A musketeer unit of twenty or thirty people was quickly organized by him and headed towards Fire a salvo from the other side's ship! For a moment, gunpowder smoke was everywhere, banging sounds were heard endlessly, and hot lead bullets kept flying towards the people who still insisted on resisting on the wooden house boat. Everyone and everything they met were killed and knocked down by its huge power, and the gurgling blood even Make the smooth deck extremely slippery!
