Daming Haiku

Chapter 8 Trial Fire Attack Tactics

The mast of the officer's warship only heard a click, and was suddenly broken by the huge kinetic energy carried by the chain bomb. Even before the sail could fall, the mast collapsed on the hull with a bang, killing the officers and soldiers on the two ships on the spot.

As soon as the mast was broken, the ship was immediately scrapped. The broken mast fell diagonally and pressed just behind the side of their ship. The sail on the mast was not broken. It was wrapped around the ship, causing the ship to tilt sideways and affecting the sail on the mast behind it, making it impossible to adjust and being stuck in A position.

This time, the ship immediately lost its power and direction and turned around on the sea. The officers and soldiers on the ship shouted one by one, but they could not restore the ship's navigation ability for a while. They could only watch the bow of a thief ship and cut towards them like a big axe.

I heard another loud click. Relying on its strong structure, the flying fastship adopted a collision tactic and hit the left front position of the official ship, which instantly smashed the bow part of the ship, which was equivalent to completely abolishing the ship.

And the other officer warship was not much better. Although the chain bomb could not accurately hit their mast, it easily hit their sails. The two shells dragged an iron chain and tore off most of the two sails of the ship, tearing them to pieces, and the ship also lost its power in an instant.

In addition, the sea wolf's ship has approached a distance of about 100 meters. At this time, with the accuracy of their artillery, there is no problem to hit the ship. Hearing the sea wolf's fast ship, they immediately flew the fragments of the officer's sentry ship, and the officers and soldiers on the ship were beaten with flesh and blood, although The ship will not sink in a short time, but it basically loses all resistance and can only float on the water like a dead fish.

After solving the two officers' warships, Feng De no longer beat the falling dogs, left them directly and rushed to the dock with the other two Clippers.

Liu Yinglong's hair was about to stand up at this time. The thief's fleet came too fast. He didn't have time to release the fleet, and what scared him more was that most of the cannons on the sea wolf's ship were Hongyi cannons, which were far and fierce, and the firepower was not weaker than the original red-haired man.

Liu Yinglong knew that he was in big trouble today. If it goes on, these warships here are all over. The goal of the sea wolf this time is very clear. He came directly to Nanrishuizhai. Obviously, he wanted to kill all the warships gathered here, so that the Fujian government would have no power to attack Nanri Island in a short period of time.

Seeing the two ships, like being patted by flies, they were slapped to death outside the dock by the three strange ships of the sea wolf. The sea wolf's fleet continued to come towards them. Liu Yinglong couldn't help but be anxious and angry. He immediately ordered these boats that had moved to follow him to accelerate their sail and withstand it first. These thief ships let the warships behind leave the dock for a certain amount of time, so that they will not be blocked by the thief and served on the dock.

Liu Yinglong is also a tiger general of the military navy at this time, and does not lack the courage to work hard. Although the army in this era will enjoy it very much, we have to admit that there are a few military generals who still have considerable courage to fight to the death when the event comes to the moment.

Liu Yinglong should be one. Today, he gritted his teeth and decided to fight. With several newly moved warships, he left the dock and rushed to the Shanghai wolf fleet on the sea, posing a posture of vowing to stop these thief ships.

Seeing these officer warships that rushed out of Shuizhai wharf like hounds, Ma Xiao saw a pair of Liu flags on one of the ships, and there was also a flag of officers and soldiers, and knew that this was the ship of Liu Yinglong, the main general of the army in this place.

"It seems that we should not underestimate this Liu guerrilla! At least he has the courage to intercept us! I admire such a person the most, but I'm afraid I can only face him today! The order came down, concentrate your firepower to hit this guerrilla ship of Liu first, break them up, and seal the officer warship in the dock and take them away!" Ma Xiao put down the telescope and showed admiration on his face, but he was not soft-hearted because of this, and immediately issued a battle order.

As the flag on the hanging bucket flew up and down, the sea wolf's fleet immediately took action and fiercely rushed to several officer warships led by Liu Yinglong who rushed out.

At this time, in the direction of Puxi City, the small fleet led by the one-eyed dragon had begun to take action, and bursts of gunfire came from the direction of Puxi City.

The whole area at the mouth of Meizhou Bay in the south of Pinghai Bay became completely noisy in the afternoon. All kinds of gunfire came one after another, and the rolling waves spread far and far away.

About an hour later, thick smoke rose from the sky in the direction of Nanrishuizhai, and it was even more flaming on the dock of Nanrishuizhai. More than 20 sailor warships were crowded on the dock and ignited by the fire. The wooden hull cracked, and the hot tongue of fire rolled straight into the sky in the thick smoke. As the sea breeze blew in the southeast, it shrouded a large area of the sea and air.

On the sea outside the whole Nanri Water Village, dozens of ships were intertwined, forming a melee situation, but it can be seen that the ships flying the flag of the Daming Marine Division were obviously at a disadvantage and were beaten by a group of ships flying the golden wolf flag.

Although their ships are similar, the sea wolves have the upper hand in terms of firepower and keep firing fiercely at the sailor warships around them.

Although some officers and soldiers of the naval warships also tried to resist. Knowing that the cannons were not as good as people, they tried to get close to the sea wolf, they were not superior in number. Even if they barely rushed to the sea wolf warship, they would be swept across the surface of the ship with scattered bullets and beat the officers and soldiers. On the deck, blood splashed on the sea.

Some sea wolf warships were not afraid of close combat. They simply took the initiative to get close to the officers' warships. When the officers began to shoot arrows, they first swept the enemy ships with light guns on the ship, then attached them and smashed the porcelain bottles full of fire oil into these officer warships, and then set off a group of fire.

Liu Yinglong led his ships to withstand the sea wolf's fleet and tried desperately to intercept the sea wolf's fleet, but his efforts did not play much.

Because he had a marshal flag and his general flag on the ship, he was immediately locked by the sea wolf's fleet and became the target of the main attack. Shortly after the war, his ship was hit by the sea wolf's cannons. More than half of the officers and soldiers on the ship were killed and injured, and the hull began to enter the water.

Liu Yinglong held a fine steel waist knife and ran back and forth on the ship, shouting for a fierce battle and commanding his soldiers on the ship to fire back, but his efforts were not effective at all. More and more shells hit his boat, making his boat in less than a quarter of an hour. After bearing at least dozens of shells, the sails were torn to pieces by enemy ship shells.

Until this time, Liu Yinglong sadly found that these sea wolves were really not easy to deal with. These pirates were experienced, well trained, the shelling was very accurate, and the firing speed was extremely fast, so that he did not even have the ability to fight back, let alone the power to fight back.

A bloody soldier rushed to Liu Yinglong and cried, "Your Excellency! Hurry up! We can't stop these pirates! If it goes on like this, we can't even go ashore!"

Liu Yinglong was about to scold the soldier, but the soldier suddenly softened and fell at his feet. At this time, Liu Yinglong saw a large amount of blood gushing out from the side of the soldier's ribs, as if he had been shot.

So he quickly handed the knife to his left hand and lowered his head to check the personal soldier. After turning him over, he found that his eyes began to turn white, only breath, but there was no breath, and his eyes were no longer finished.

And Liu Yinglong himself was also injured in many places at this time. Fortunately, he was armored to defend himself, so he was not seriously injured. Liu Yinglong backed up his cavity and looked around at the already dilapidated surface of the ship. He saw that his boat had been hit by sea wolves's shells, and the hull also began to tilt. Obviously, the boat below There must have been a lot of water in the cabin, so he looked up and roared.

After a while, the sea wolf saw that Liu Yinglong's boat began to leave the battlefield crookedly and sailed to the seaside, rushed to a shallow beach and ran aground on the shallow beach.

Several officers and soldiers jumped from the ship into the shallow water and fled to the shore. Originally, there were sea wolves who wanted to hunt down these people, but Ma Xiao ordered them to abandon the ship and land, and concentrate on killing the remaining officers and warships.

Many officers and soldiers of the warships looked at the sea wolf approaching, and both sides handed over the fire. They simply did not wait for the people on the ship to arrive, so they quickly rowed and rowed again. They tried their best to raise their sails and leave the berth and sailed to the sea, but as soon as they went to sea, they were besieged by the sea wolf fleet.

So that the officer warships can't organize effective defense at all. They can only be hunted by sea wolves one after another like a flock of sheep. As for the remaining warships that can't move on the dock, the sea wolf will naturally not let them move slowly. Several light sailboats directly hit the dock and shelled. On the one hand, he simply put it on and threw the cann on the officer's warship, causing it to cause a fire on the ship.

At this time, the officer ship was loaded with ammunition and almost ready to go on the expedition. The gunpowder on a warship was ignited by a sea wolf and suddenly exploded. The whole ship was torn apart almost instantly. Even a sea wolf's ship was affected. Before it could leave, it was ignited by a splashing flame.

The unlucky sea wolf's ship burned quickly before it could put out the fire. As a last resort, more than 30 sea wolves on the ship had to abandon the ship quickly. Soon, even the gunpowder on their own ship exploded, which was also exploded in an instant and slowly sank into the water of the dock.

However, the sea wolf succeeded in igniting a fire on the dock, causing the warships that had not yet time to sail out of the dock into a ball.
