No matter what, we finally entered the Spaniard¡¯s favorite melee rhythm.
However, the high side of the ship of the Eternal Sinner Liu Daxia once again became an obstacle in front of them. Even if he stood on the bow turret of Galaisai, he was still more than a foot high from the lowest point of Liu Daxia's deck.
"Ladder, find the ladder quickly!" the Spanish infantrymen who were preparing to pick up the ship shouted.
Well, the side war has become a siege again
Soon, facts proved that even if the naval battle was turned into a land battle, the advantage would still be with Liu Daxia.
Lin Feng and her men not only have the advantage of defending the city from a high position, but also have a wealth of defensive means at their disposal, such as the Dafo Lang machine swivel cannon, the Hongxi short heavy cannon, the Gatmu thunder gun, the Oda city rocket, the tea grenade, and the boiling water and boiling oil. .
The firepower output is much stronger than when we fired at each other from a few hundred meters apart
The Spanish infantry still attacked from their backs and had to climb ladders to get to the deck. What was the difference between delivering food?
Although they also used matchlocks to fight back, the firepower was far from enough, and they were pinned down by Lin Feng's men and unable to lift their heads.
Thousands of Spaniards were shot and fell into the water, and the lifeboats couldn't even catch them
The sea surface was soon dyed red, and from a distance it looked like the sea was bleeding.
Unable to withstand this terrible blow, the Spanish soldiers swarmed from the upper deck to the lower deck to take refuge like water in a bathtub.
Although they are both serving as soldiers in the colonies, serving as soldiers in a place like the Americas, where conquests last a long time, is obviously not at the same level as officers and soldiers who go to Luzon to open up wasteland tens of thousands of miles away.
Those shooters in the tall sail baskets were even more severely hit. The Ming army used gyroguns to beat them into sieves. Several other hanging baskets were directly destroyed by chain bombs. The five shooters inside and their heavy matchlocks were cut into several pieces, turning into a rain of blood and falling on the faces and heads of the soldiers below.
The remaining four Spanish warships, which had not caught up with the first wave of collisions, originally wanted to insert Liu Daxia from another angle, but were daunted by the sight of such a one-sided massacre. They did not dare to get close and turned around to chase the other four Ming ships. The battleship went.
¡°It doesn¡¯t matter that it¡¯s been almost two hours since they drove away, where are you going to chase them?
? Okay, I just want to run away. Anyway, it's important to go home safely The money belongs to Your Majesty, but your life is yours.
The four escaping warships in turn broke the will of the eight warships that surrounded Liu Daxia
The word ¡®encirclement¡¯ here means that eight people stand in a circle and are beaten by each other.
So the captains ordered the white flag to be raised and requested a ceasefire. At the same time, the oarsmen rowed hard backwards, and the Spanish soldiers also pressed their spears against Liu Daxia's hull, trying to pull out the horn as soon as possible to retreat.
Lin Feng had no intention of killing them all and ordered to stop firing.
First, although she also treats people to wonton noodles, she is not murderous.
Second, firing again is a complete waste of precious ammunition.
This is a battle 60,000 miles away from the mainland. It is extremely difficult to replenish ammunition, and the quality is far inferior to the ammunition you bring, so what can you do if you don't budget carefully?
So a funny scene occurred. The two parties, who had been fighting to death just now, actually stopped at the same time and worked together to help pull out the collision horn of the galley.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT OFFICE: The last galley's horn was pulled out with a 'pop' sound
The Spanish military claims to be the world¡¯s hegemon, but it still needs to be credible. Now that they surrendered, they no longer pursued southward, so they turned the ship around and sailed toward the Cuban coast on the west side, withdrawing from the battle
In fact, the main reason is because they suffered too heavy losses. Not only were more than half of the soldiers killed or injured, but the ship was also leaking seriously. If they didn't quickly find a harbor to repair the ship, it would sink very quickly.
Here, the Liu Daxia is riddled with holes. Although the hull is not seriously damaged, the only remaining rudder has been damaged just now and is in urgent need of anchoring for repairs.
"However, the water in the strait was too deep and fast, and the wind was strong. Even if we lowered the anchor cable to the head, we could not stop the ship. How to get carpenters to complete such difficult work?
This was not a problem for Lin Feng, so she simply stopped practicing. Have someone tie the broken rudder tightly with a rope to prevent it from being lost. Then four more boats were lowered without untying the mooring lines.
In this way, when the boat needs to turn left, all the boats will row to the left. All the crew members on the ship also stood on the port side to act as counterweights, which could tilt the ship slightly inward so that it could slowly turn around.
A good captain can overcome any difficulties and take the crew home. For Lin Feng, it is even more basic.
??~~
Here, Liu Daxia, who is lame, is walking slowlyAre you going further and further down the road? "
"You deserve to worry about this kind of problem?" Colonel Thiago sneered. Thinking that he still had to count on the other party now, he laughed at himself: "Of course I don't deserve it either. So let's think about how to get through tomorrow's test."
"Yes." Lieutenant Colonel Aguero put away his thoughts with some frustration and said with force: "I think maybe we should avoid it and hide."
"You mean?" the colonel said suddenly, "Guantanamo Bay?"
"Yes." Aguero nodded and said, "We'll be there in less than two leagues. If we hide in overnight, we can definitely get rid of those pirates!"
"At the same time, send a clipper to Santo Domingo for help." The colonel's eyes lit up and he said: "Wait for the main fleet to come to respond!"
This is indeed the safest way now. Again, for a noble officer like him, as long as there is no problem with the treasure ship, everything is a minor problem.
He turned to look out the window. The night sky was clear and the visibility was very good.
"Okay, send the order quickly!" The colonel made up his mind and ordered in a deep voice.
