The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 341 Decisive Battle in the Country of Sakura (14)

After the collision between the boats on both sides stopped, the Ming army's blunderbuss did not stop, standing up, hitting, squatting down, standing up behind, hitting, squatting down.

Waves of Japanese soldiers tried to overturn their ships, and then fell down in waves.

The bow of the ship was filled with corpses and wounded in a short time, which even affected the successor soldiers and horses to rush over.

Matsumoto was holding a long knife behind him, with a look of disbelief.

There were a total of more than 100 people on his boat. As soon as the two sides met, gunmen from the opposite side continued to attack, knocking down his soldiers and horses in rows.

After several rounds of gunshots, more than half of them were killed or injured.

"Ah..." Suddenly there was a Japanese saberman who rushed halfway to see the brothers in front were knocked down, threw away the long sword in fright, and ran back with his head in his arms.

"Eight grids." Matsumoto was furious, rushed over, pounced, and chopped off the man's head with a knife.

"Retreaters, kill, charge." He yelled frantically.

"Bang, bang, bang" Another round of artillerymen came, and the Japanese army collapsed instantly. Countless people ran back, not daring to go forward.

At the same time, Matsumoto saw the Ming army moving the guns on the ship.

At this time, the guns on the Japanese ships were basically fixed, but the Ming army's guns were obviously bigger than them, and they could still move.

Hiss, Matsumoto's soul flew into the sky immediately. It would be a disaster for the Ming army to move the cannon over and shoot them at them.

He watched the Ming army move the cannon in horror, his mind was in chaos, and his former composure was gone.

Fortunately, the Ming army stopped moving its guns soon.

It turned out that Xilaojing originally planned to move the artillery to fight after the impact of the ship stopped, but found that the Japanese army collapsed after a few rounds of gunfire.

"Stop shelling, go up and up, and rush over." Xi Lao was overjoyed. The opponent's hull was not damaged, but the bow was damaged. After repairing it, it can be used immediately.

There were more than 100 musketeers in the Ming army, and thirty or forty spearmen, and they began to turn forward one after another.

They turned over first with the pikemen, and the gunmen guarded the two wings, fighting against the Japanese army in front.

At this time, there were no complete people on the bow of the Japanese army, either corpses or wounded soldiers.

There were more than 100 people on the boat, fifty or sixty were killed and injured, and the rest ran to the back of the boat, and those who didn't run were beaten.

Ming Jun quickly turned over.

The pikemen didn't even wear their shields, and when they passed by, they just pounced and stabbed all the wounded soldiers of the Japanese army, leaving no one behind.

Immediately there were screams and screams everywhere.

Knife in hand, Matsumoto could no longer control himself as he watched the Ming army turn over and slaughter his men.

"Ming thief." Matsumoto roared, holding a long knife, and rushed forward frantically.

The gunmen raised their guns one after another when they saw it, but they didn't hit it.

Because some spearmen rushed up, blocking their sight.

Four or five pikemen rushed forward at the same time, swishing, some stabbing the top and some stabbing the bottom.

Matsumoto didn't even cut off the knife, and he was stabbed four or five times in the body.

He looked at Ming Ren with despair, opened his mouth, and wanted to curse, but blood spurted wildly.

"Surrender without killing." At this moment, someone in the Ming army shouted in Japanese.

Everyone learned this sentence half a month ago, some people forgot, some people still remember it.

Immediately, the words "surrender and not kill" were everywhere on the ship.

The people of Xilaojing quickly captured the Japanese warship.

Xi Laojing breathed a long sigh of relief, collected himself, picked up the binoculars and looked around.

At this time, the naval battle had been fought from morning to afternoon, and the sea was very chaotic. Most of the ships of the Ming army and the Japanese army were entangled, and it had turned into a melee.

Only on the outermost periphery, there are still seventy or eighty Japanese ships that did not participate in the battle. This is their double-faced approach. However, seeing that the Japanese ships were being sunk and exploded everywhere, many people felt that they were retreating. More and more warships left the battlefield and retreated towards the Falklands.

Many people don't understand why their own ships are blown up. Can Ming people's artillery often hit our gunpowder warehouse?
Originally, in the artillery battle in the morning, the two sides were still a bit evenly matched. Ming people had more guns, and they had more ships, and each had casualties.

But in the afternoon, the distance between the two sides was shortened, and the fuzed shells of the Ming army began to show their power. As long as they hit, there was a chance to explode. There were exploded warships everywhere.

Many warships were bombed and almost lost their ability to move.

Some were even directly bombed and sunk.

On the entire battlefield right now, the victory of the Ming army is almost a foregone conclusion.

The cross-age guiding shells play an irreplaceable role in close combat at sea.

The only downside now is that the explosion rate is too low, less than 20.00%.

If it can be improved and [-]% explode, then Ding Yi's navy will be almost invincible.

"How about it, can you win?" Song Fei was also asking Ding Yi at this moment.

Their boat was still chasing Miura Masaji's boat.

Masaji Miura's flagship has a high defense and a lot of artillery. Two ships of the Ming army are following him to attack.

Ding Yi's boat was also chasing after him, but he never caught up.

"It's almost there, knocking down that big ship should win." Ding Yi also let out a long sigh of relief.

Before coming here, Ding Yi was also a little panicked when he used 300 ships to fight more than [-] ships and added hundreds of small ships.

Fortunately, the Japanese army was not in one mind. As soon as the attack started, after being cut into three pieces by them, more than a dozen ships escaped immediately.

Then dozens of ships withdrew. After fighting for a long time, the Japanese army escaped fifty or sixty ships one after another, and there are still sixty or seventy ships on the periphery, ready to run away.

In other words, there are only about two hundred ships that have really fought with Ding Yi and the others so far.

At this time, almost half of the sea surface had been severely damaged by them, and one third had been hit by fuzed shells.

Hundreds of small ships were overturned, and a big victory was just around the corner.

At this time, it was basically the closing stage, and the Ming army was chasing Miura Masaji, but because there were boats everywhere on the sea, and there were damaged and immovable boats blocking the way, it was very difficult to chase.

Similarly, it is difficult for Miura Shoji to leave, as there are boats everywhere.

And at this time, Miura Shoji didn't even think of leaving. He was confronting a ship of the Ming army. His ship was the one with the most artillery in the Japanese navy, so it was a bit swollen.

But suddenly someone ran over.

"My lord, our cannon can no longer fire."

".."what?Miura Zhengji was furious. The Ming army's cannons have been firing since the morning, and they are still ringing. Why can't ours be fired?
Moreover, in naval battles, most of the time is spent adjusting positions, and the interval between firing and firing is not as dense as in land battles.

"From the morning to the present, our cannons have fired more than [-] rounds, and we can't fire any more. If we fire any more, the chambers will explode." The subordinate said with his head down.

"Damn it." Miura Shoji scolded angrily.

"My lord, retreat." Someone couldn't help but panic.

"Eight grids." Miura Zhengji was furious, looked around, and said sharply: "We still have nearly a hundred ships, and the Ming army can move at most thirty or forty ships. Pass the semaphore and attack in an all-round way. Who dares to retreat? Wait. After the battle, all beheaded."

The subordinates looked helpless and could only bow their heads: "Hi."

He took a few steps back and looked around, feeling like crying in his heart.

Looking at the sea, of course there are ships everywhere, and they still have more than 100 ships, but many of them were either pierced or blown up, and all lost their ability to move, and the Japanese soldiers on them jumped into the sea one after another.

And most of the ships that move around on the sea are Ming army ships.
