Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 460
"fire!"

The voice of the gunner was trembling a little, and the gunner was terrified as he yelled and stabbed the red-hot iron rod into the gunhole, but with a loud bang, the six nearby red cannons almost At the same time, the flames were sprayed out, and the bottom layer was probably also firing. Amid the buzzing sound in the ears, the gunners of the Qihuo Army obviously felt the second tremor.

All six rounds of grape bullets hit the Zheng Jun Dafu boat that rushed over like a lunatic. Even the blessing boat with traditional mortise and tenon structure bombs could not withstand such a heavy blow. The wide bow of the ship was blown into pieces, but even so, the ship was still sinking and crashed into it like a lunatic relying on inertia.

bang~
A sharp piece of wood stuck into the buttocks of the ship that the Sea Power had turned to head out to sea. The rear gun deck was pierced through. The gunner who had no time to run was pierced on it, and the three Hongyi cannons were directly hit. Flying out, the direction of the ship pushed by the heavy impact force turned back with a creaking sound.

"Shoulder to shoulder with the job!"

I don’t know who yelled a slang word. After the two cannonballs hit the deck of Haiquan, the Zheng’s pirates jumped down from the upper deck of Fuchuan, which was a section taller than Haiquan, like dumpling. These bastards were obviously extremely With robbery experience, before the sailors of the Qihuo Army woke up from the shock, a bald and bright gangster picked up an ax and headed straight for the main mast of the Sea Power.

"Protect the mast!"

If there is no power on the sea, no matter how strong the ship is, it will be meat on the felt board, and it will be slaughtered. Amidst the screams of panic, a dozen sailors dropped their work and ran back in a panic with gunfire. Unexpectedly, there was another burst of crackling gunshots behind this kung fu. Even with the protection of the soaked paper armor, the huge force still knocked several people down.

The Zheng Jun pirates also held short firecrackers in their hands, and at the same time, a row of long-handled firecrackers on the bow of the Fuchuan was also smoking outwards. The powerful firepower hit the beggars who had always used firecrackers to educate others. After learning how to behave, the sailors on the deck had to retreat behind the large barrel bunkers.

On the top, the bald and bright pirates hacked and hacked the mast, but the gun bay below was also in a mess. Seeing the fragments of the Fuchuan inserted into his own ship, the panicked gunners shouted around, but they were helpless.

Bang bang two shots rang out above the head suddenly, and the ant-like gunner, who was overwhelmed with fright, was also clever, and then someone yelled out delicately and timidly.

"Big guy!"

Holding the smoking revolver in one hand, Song Qingshu yelled angrily, "Don't worry, you hammer, I'm still fucking alive! Don't give your sister a salute, load the cannon, and coax this bastard out of the boat for me!" "

A big foot rolled on the buttocks of the nearest gunner, and Song Qingshu's saliva was sprayed on the face of the sergeant opposite. After being kicked and scolded by Song Qingshu, the gunners who came back to their senses shot again in a panic. It was filled with gunpowder, and above the head was the intense sound of gunfire, gunfire, and cursing. Everyone who heard this scene felt numb!The loading was a little slower again.

Finally, seven or eight minutes later, this round was considered to be loaded. Covering his ears, Song Qingshu shouted at the top of his lungs: "Salvo!" Almost at the same time, the red-hot iron rod was stabbed into the blast hole.

rumbling~
It is not an exaggeration to describe it as deafening. The grape bullets tied together to hit the hull once again slashed the side of the Zheng Jun pirate ship that was on the Haiquan, and the heavy bullet chain almost completely shattered the opposite hull. A terrifying large crack appeared on the pirate ship amidst the tooth-piercing sound of wood breaking, and more importantly, relying on the huge recoil, the Sea Power jerked to the right and pulled itself out.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Amidst the screams, the bird's nest observer caught off guard fell from the mast more than ten meters high and fell heavily into the sea, splashing a jet of water. However, his sacrifice was not in vain. A round of close-range blows showed it vividly. The bow of the ship was almost broken, and the side suffered a devastating blow. Amid the huge roar, the heavy warship of more than 50 meters suddenly dumped on the sea, and the sailors and pirates on it were thrown into the sea like dumplings. up the sea.

Seeing the sinking of the enemy ship, Song Qingshu on the edge of the hole was relieved, but before he gave the order to turn around, the second and third battleships of the Zheng army also came into view. This effort was enough for them to start coming.

"The Haiquan has no special decorations, so why did Bandit Zheng spot us?"

In the binoculars, more Zheng Jun was also looking at him from behind. Li Xiangjun, who had been following Song Qingshu's buttocks, couldn't help shouting with a pale face and gloomy eyes. Nepalese cutlass.

"Fortunately, it's us! If you want to come, come here!"

"Xiangxiang! Go back immediately and lead Yu'er and the others to hide in the safe cabin below. Don't come out without my order!"

Li Xiangjun immediately became unhappy with these words, and with a stern face, she also snorted coldly: "Marshal, could this subordinate be dismissed?"

"what?"

"Since there is no one, why did the commander-in-chief drive me away as a personal secretary!"

But looking back from the hole, the strange woman in Qinhuai really can't be judged by ordinary eyes. Song Qingshu reluctantly pulled out the secondary gun from his waist and threw it over. At the same time, he took out the bayonet and handed it to Li Xiangjun.

"Then follow me closely, don't cry when it's time to kill!"

"Look down on who!"

Facing the heavy revolver, Li Xiangjun haughtily twitched his nose.

Although Zheng Jun's firepower is not as good as his own, they still have cannons. When they are close to tens of meters, the Fran cannons of the three ships roared at the same time, hitting the deck of the Haiquan and the surface of the moon group. There are almost no people on the deck. The bunkers piled up with large wooden barrels were blasted away, and the sailors of the Qihuo Army behind died tragically.

However, the gun bays on the two decks also roared angrily. The effects of the two guns are really different. Several ships within the range of the close-range grape bullets were immediately riddled with holes. You can see the mess of corpses in the cabin from outside.

Carrying big shields and facing the Francois machine gun projectiles that hit their faces everywhere, the sailors manipulated the sails with difficulty, driving the heavy sailboat to move forward quickly. The ship narrowly avoided the Daqing ship and the rice boat that hit it, but the Kunpeng ship behind it was not so lucky. In the command position, Song Qingshu saw with his own eyes a large number of pirates jumping down from the top, crying and howling, and fighting with the bayonet formation of the Qihuo army who came out to fight.

At this time, his good luck seemed to have run out. Just when Song Qingshu watched his fleet gradually being surrounded and became anxious, Li Xiangjun behind him suddenly screamed and pulled his sleeve aside, and the two rolled away. The ground gourd rolled aside, before Song Qingshu jumped up and got angry, amidst the creaking sound, the huge mainmast smashed back with hundreds of catties of canvas.

The unbalanced hull quickly tilted to the right, and the huge mainmast slid down with the sound of Kaba Kaba's rope breaking. Several sailors on the side of the boat were dragged into the sea by the sail, holding on to the wooden railing next to them, screaming. Holding Li Xiangjun's collar with one hand, the two of them didn't fall off, and Song Qingshu, who was covered in cold sweat, roared urgently again.

"Cut the cable! Don't let the sail slow you down!"

The sailor who was close to the distance crawled desperately, cut off the remaining cables with a sharp sailor's knife, and the heavy mainmast was completely detached, and fell into the sea with a bang, which made Song Qingshu heave a sigh of relief, but lost the mainmast. The speed of the Haiquan number dropped all of a sudden, and a Zheng army ship next to it seized the opportunity to ram into it obliquely against the roaring artillery fire.

Amidst the cracking sound of cracking, the sharp bow of Zheng Jun's ship scraped off a large layer of wood on the hull of Haiquan, and the muzzle of a tiger crouching gun that had not been optimistic about the timing was stuck by the bow and crushed to the ground. Several pieces of the ship's planks were squeezed out on the cabin frame next to it, and finally got stuck on the keel. The violent impact almost caused the two large ships to shake violently at the same time. He rushed down with a short fire blunderbuss, but before boarding the ship, a burst of violent gunshots killed more than half of these guys in midair.

Just now Song Qingshu's sentence is fortunate to be us, but it is not aimless. Other ships have about 300 sailors and soldiers, but his has 600 people, [-] soldiers, and [-] forwards. Hiding under the cabin, they rushed out of the upper deck one after another with an order.

Before the pirates could recover, dozens of wolves and tigers rushed out with their bayonets in their hands. When the bayonets turned red, a dozen more pirates were pierced in an instant. Then, one by one The round crisp-skinned porcelain bottle was thrown to the Zheng warship tower, which was more than one meter high, and several Zheng army gunners were directly blasted out amidst the violent roar.

Board battle, board battle!Who is afraid of whom?

It's a pity that before Song Qingshu could finish pretending this, there was another loud scream from behind. Taking advantage of the gap between the Haiquan and the Kunpeng, another Zheng Jun pirate ship came over and slammed into it. On the buttocks of the Haiquan, Zheng Jun, who was densely packed, jumped down fiercely.

The left side is too far away to see clearly, but the right side is in a melee. More than a dozen Yingtian ships and dozens of small ships are completely caught in the formation of Zheng Jun's ships, and some are still circling and interacting in a limited space. Shooting, some of them have already collided with the enemy ship just like themselves, and started the staring ship battle. The deck in front of him is a fierce fighting battlefield. Looking around with the telescope, Song Qingshu couldn't help raising his eyebrows of.

But at this moment, Xiaobao, the captain of the former observation post, ran back in a panic, and whispered into Song Qingshu's ear.

"Marshal, it's not good, that bastard Zhang Huangyan ran away with the boat!"
