- Although everyone calls them boats, the difference between boats is as big as the difference between people.
?? Can a medium-sized coast guard ship costing two thousand taels each be the same as a large Western sailing ship costing more than ten or two hundred thousand taels? By the same token, a pirate ship costing one hundred and eighty taels of silver was completely unable to compete with a coast guard ship that represented the Ming Dynasty's highest shipbuilding technology.
And the artillery of the coast guard ship is stronger than that of the Portuguese. One cannon can even blast through several sailboats made of inferior boards! Nature is like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, crushing them in all directions.
The pirate ship and the hedgehogs gathered together, and they couldn't hide. They could only stay still and let them slaughter them.
The Coast Guard fleet with full firepower released a large number of Oda City rockets. Pirate ships did not have professional damage control, and the fire gradually spread, burning the entire sail and mast into a torch. Eventually, the fire became bigger and bigger and spread completely.
Because the hull was too wet, the entire bay was filled with smoke. This also led Silva to believe that all other ships were doomed.
But in fact, that was just what he thought. There were actually pirate ships blocking the perimeter, and all the old lock ships and Lacaville sailing ships were intact. It's just that the pirate ships were blocked by the intensive artillery fire of the coast guard fleet, so they were naturally unable to move.
Domingo naturally had no way of knowing. Looking at the scene of black smoke rising into the sky in the bay, he accepted Silva's statement. Heartbroken, he could only order the Relais to be chased quickly, lest the Karak galleon, which was also crippled, make the same mistake as the Duke of Goa.
¡°In that case, he will become an unprecedented commander who lost three large sailing ships in one battle, and the entire family will be nailed to the pillar of shame forever.
??~~
Wang Rulong and Xiang Xuehai couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief as they watched the Pena slowly sail away from Shen'ao Bay.
The bow of the Zhenwo is still stuck in the Duke of Goa and cannot be pulled out. If the other party takes it out on themselves, they will have no choice but to abandon the ship.
"Huh? Why did they let us go?" Xiang Xuehai asked in confusion.
"Isn't that good?" Wang Rulong took out a cigar from his pocket and wanted to have one, but fireworks were strictly prohibited on the ship, so he could only turn the thick thing around at the end of his nose and sniff it. Dry addiction. "I estimate that Lao Ma and the others did a good job, and they probably took care of that Oriental beauty."
"It's possible, otherwise the boat would have come out long ago." Xiang Xuehai nodded and said, "It seems that the beauty was dismantled and reinstalled, and her muscles and bones were still injured."
"Isn't that nonsense? Remember Brother Hel said that if the ship is dismantled, it can't be reassembled. In order to deal with the Portuguese, Yang Fan and his gang added a full five thousand kilograms of nails and iron hoops. To put it bluntly, They were tied up by force." Wang Rulong said with a smile: "Their requirement at that time was that if they could barely drive to Macau, the task would be considered completed. This gave the red-haired ghost another year, and they were secretly happy!"
"Others don't know these things clearly. Alfonso has stayed at Jiangnan Shipyard for so long, but he knows everything." Xiang Xuehai couldn't help but sigh: "He still dares to launch such a battlefield on the ship? I really don't know what is going on in his head. of."
"You can't bear the responsibility and dare not tell the truth." Wang Rulong curled his lips and said: "Besides, it will be fine for a year. Who would have thought that a few volleys would kill the beauty?"
"That's really unlucky." Xiang Xuehai smiled.
It was almost ten o'clock in the morning, the fog on the sea surface had basically disappeared, and the conditions for the release of reconnaissance balloons had been met.
"Can it still be used?" Wang Rulong loudly asked the Beidou team who was preparing to fly on the forecastle.
"Intact!" the squad leader reported loudly. When the hot air balloon is not in use, the frame must be dismantled, the skin folded, and stored in a box. Before the war, the Beidou team placed the balloon box in the watertight cabin on the bottom floor. The watertight cabin did not eat a single shell, so the balloon was naturally unscathed.
"Then let's fly quickly!" Wang Rulong was overjoyed when he heard this and couldn't wait to go to the sky to see what the entire battlefield looked like now.
A quarter of an hour later, a light blue reconnaissance balloon took him to high altitude. As the altitude continues to rise, Wang Rulong's horizons also expand.
Soon, he saw the coast guard fleet led by Ma Yinglong, lined up in two horizontal lines, using the most difficult to break through staggered formation, blocking all the pirate ships in the bay.
In this staggered formation, the front ship will not block the shooting trajectory of the rear ship, and the warship's firepower can be fully utilized. There were two more lines of defense, one was broken through and the other was blocked. Except for the Pena, which was a giant that could not break through the defenses, the other large and small ships were unable to break through.
When all the pirate ships trying to escape were sunk, the pirates no longer expected to break out from the sea. They jumped into the water one after another and swam towards the shore. Prepare to follow the attack on Qing'ao Bay firstLet¡¯s talk about the team rendezvous.
With more and more pirates escaping ashore, there are also more and more uncontrolled ships. This makes the Caravel sailboat and the old lock ship trapped in the deepest part completely lose hope of breaking out.
It seems that none of the enemies here can escape, but it will take a lot of time to eat them. After all, even if there are three hundred pigs there, you can't catch them all at once.
Wang Rulong then turned his attention to the north with confidence to see what was happening now with the two Portuguese galleons and the three coast guard battleships that had escaped.
I saw that the Galileis, which escaped first, had already sailed to the sea more than ten miles away to the north.
As for why you fled north? Because the wind is blowing from the south now. The red-haired ghost wanted to escape south, but the headwind performance of Karak's large sailboat was extremely poor, so he probably planned to escape north first and get away from the battlefield.
Ships 102 and 103, one on the left and one on the right, have been separated by some distance.
Wang Rulong could see clearly with his binoculars that the police officers on the two ships were busy cleaning up the debris on the decks and fixing the undamaged rigging to the remaining masts.
The ship¡¯s carpenters, under the leadership of the repair chief, tried to use the wood stored on the ship to repair the broken mast. In short, before they succeeded, these two battleships, with only three masts left in total, had no chance of catching up with the Gareles.
There is even the danger of being overtaken by the Pena from behind.
In addition, he also saw the group's three squadrons, all of which were also on the nearby sea.
This is normal. The main fleet fought so hard with the red-haired ghost that it could be heard clearly from more than ten or twenty miles away. It would be abnormal for them not to join in the fun.
I saw Lin Feng's fleet quickly chasing the Relais from the southeast. Chen Huaixiu's fleet followed the Pena, while the fastest Ryukyu galley fleet moved closer to the 102 and 103 ships. It was probably Heerdi and the others who sent a signal to Zheng He's ship to come closer quickly.
There are probably a lot of wounded people on the two boats
Wang Rulong sighed secretly, every coast guard is a valuable asset of the group, and losing one is heartbreaking.
Exhaling his breath, he turned his attention to the Qing'ao Bay base, where the war was coming to an end
??~~
When you look down from the air, you can clearly see that the wall on the west side of the Qing'ao Bay base is indeed double-layered.
The distance between the two parallel walls is about three hundred meters, and there is a vertical wall every one thousand meters, which is used to separate enemies invading from different directions so that they cannot form a combined force.
There are forts and archery towers on both the inner and vertical walls. The positions of the forts and archery towers have been scientifically calculated to ensure that there are no blind spots covering areas divided by walls. In this way, only a small number of troops can be used to defend the land defense line.
Zhao Hao also set up two trenches and a line of defense in each area, and buried a large amount of gunpowder underground. In order to destroy the enemy's vitality as much as possible and demoralize him.
But Mr. Zhao¡¯s pre-war preparations were obviously a bit excessive. Because after the two groups of pirates suffered losses in the first trench, they all retreated before they could see the power of the artillery. Only the Portuguese army remained stubborn. After losing the black slave camp and mercenaries, the company finally reached the inner wall after passing several levels.
Mr. Zhao¡¯s fort and shooting tower finally have a use.
The forts were equipped with Xuande guns that were disliked by the Coast Guard fleet because of their small caliber. However, this 93 mm caliber bronze gun is fully capable of being used as a field gun. For example, now, with solid bullets installed, the entire rectangular area can be easily coveredor an urn city. Using shotgun shells can also kill a large number of Portuguese soldiers within 300 meters.
And three hundred meters is exactly the distance between the two city walls.
Colonel Fernando and his men were in trouble for eight lifetimes when they encountered an enemy like Mr. Zhao who was obviously very powerful but still spared no expense in building fortifications and deliberately plotted against them.
Zhao Hao¡¯s gunners were even so perverted that they made fire charts for areas within the firing range so that they could adjust their hits as soon as the enemy moved to any position.
So these red-haired ghosts tried their best to dodge in the Wengcheng, but the cannonballs still followed them, one after another exploding among them, causing extremely heavy losses.
Facing the cruel reality, Fernando¡¯s arrogance disappeared. He wanted to order a retreat, but two trenches lay behind him. Moreover, the temporarily erected pedals on the latter section were demolished by the black slaves in the ditch
There is no way to escape, there is no way to avoid it, why can¡¯t we just watch and wait for death?
Fernando was not as pretentious as Domingo and decisively raised the white flag.
Then, under the other party¡¯s instructions, they obediently threw away their weapons, and everyone came to the inner wall and lay down on the ground with their heads in their hands.
At this time, the Marines came down from the wall, tied up Fernando and a group of noble officers alone, and held them in separate custody. As for the ordinary red-haired ghosts, they were all driven into the second ditch, which was the one where the black slaves jumped.
In fact, Zhao Hao¡¯s purpose of digging this trench was to detain prisoners, so there was no mechanism in it to injure anyone.
"But there were more than a thousand angry black slaves inside, and these human traffickers would have a drink."
