Then a violent flowering bomb exploded, and a thick water column as high as 50 feet sounded on the sea surface, rising from the sea surface with the explosion …
Seeing thousands of navy soldiers here, especially those who have played against the Tiger and Leopard Army, they are boiling directly.
The new red artillery has a range of more than two miles, which directly means that they are no longer passively beaten when fighting against the Tiger and Leopard Army Navy, and they have the ability to fight back when facing the Tiger and Leopard Army Navy.
But then, in a possible naval battle, let the Tiger and Leopard Army have a good taste of the imperial navy’s fierce revenge …
Just when the men were boiling, Liu Yun, the commander of the navy division, was just ordered by the court to be full of expectation. At this moment, the facial expression has been completely replaced by the heat.
On the side of the same smiling Ministry of War is still a face of heroism to ensure that "at the end of the adult will ensure that the navy will be able to get revenge in the naval battle after changing into a new red cannon, and the Ministry of Warship of the Tiger and Leopard Army in the coastal waters of the south of the Yangtze River will be eliminated to live up to the high hopes of the imperial court for our navy …"
Before the new red cannon has a range of more than two miles, the Ministry of War is also full of confidence in the upcoming naval battle
Liu Yun, the company commander of the navy, looked forward to answering, "Very good. That’s what the old navy wants … Tell the men that the old navy soldiers applied to the court for 102,000 silver for a warship that sank the tiger and leopard army in the sea battle, and 2,200 silver for a warship that wounded the tiger and leopard army …"
There must be a brave man. When thousands of officers and men of the Navy were stimulated by silver and clamored to go out to sea to seek revenge from the Tiger and Leopard Army,
They don’t know that the powerful recoil of the new red cannon just shot by artillery test has made the structure of this wooden warship with a displacement of more than 1000 tons slightly loose.
There is nothing that a red cannon can do to the warship, but when more than ten new red cannons fire at the same time on one side of the warship, the huge recoil it produces is beyond the capacity of a pure wooden warship.
Of course, these are all unknown to thousands of officers and men of the navy. At this moment, they are full of enthusiasm and hope for the future. They have focused their limited attention on the new red cannon that may bring them victory. No one pays attention to the recoil.
The navy stationed in the Yangtze River estuary directly threatened Nanjing Chengan by avoiding the tiger and leopard army navy. Although this imperial navy was just established by the imperial court,
However, thousands of officers and men of the navy are not elite from other navy divisions.
In just three days, thousands of soldiers were trained to master foot warships and artillery.
Then, more than 20 warships left the Yangtze River Estuary for Jiangnan coastal hunting in a group of six or three warships. There is no doubt that the hunting object is the tiger and leopard army full of smuggled salt water division warships …
A calm sea, a navy warship of Tiger and Leopard Army, which has just delivered the goods, is sailing north along the sea breeze with the newly received two thousand silver.
When hundreds of soldiers of the warship were immersed in an exciting and relaxed atmosphere, a crisp alarm suddenly sounded on the lookout, and then a little nervous sound came to the ears of every soldier of the warship …
"The imperial navy appeared in front of three imperial navy warships are surrounded by us …"
Fighting for several months in a row has made the officers and men of the Tiger and Leopard Navy clearly see that the imperial navy warships are backward.
It can be said that the imperial navy warships in front of the Tiger and Leopard Army Navy warships didn’t even have a chance to strike back.
Although the watchmen sounded the warning, the first battle ship sailed
However, the faces of the officers and men on the deck of the warship did not show the tension and worry before the war.
It’s like a drill. Their officers ordered an orderly rush to their own combat positions …
Captain Yu quickly raised his binoculars and looked at three imperial navy warships still three miles away.
What makes the captain feel puzzled is that these three imperial navy warships did not approach themselves as quickly as they had encountered before, so that they could have the ability to fight back early in the naval battle.
Three warships are still more than two miles away from themselves. At the beginning, a picture that surprised the captain came into view.
Three imperial navy warships coming to themselves in half encirclement actually began to turn, aiming more than a dozen dark muzzle parts on one side of the warships at themselves and posing as a horse about to fire …
When the captain was puzzled, there were still more than two miles away. The imperial navy warship was located on the side, and a dozen dark muzzles suddenly spewed out a lot of white fireworks balls.
Then the screaming caused by the boring shelling of flowering shells across the sky reached the captain’s ear.
And in the blink of an eye, his two warship guns also fired …
The captain and hundreds of soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Army watched dozens of flowering bombs fall into the sea without flying halfway, but with a scream directly to their position …
The flowering bomb fell into the water and exploded. A thick water column quickly rose in front of the warship.
What made the captain feel nervous was that the distance between these rising water columns and the foot warships was less than 20 steps recently.
But this is also the captain’s pleasure …
Although the new red cannon of the imperial warship has a long range, there is no measuring tool to manipulate it by experience. The longer the range, the worse the aiming of the flowering bullet …
But the tiger and leopard warship guns are different …
Because there is no way, the specifications of the guns are the same, a lot of test firing and research have been carried out before they are delivered to the navy, and according to these test firing results, the measuring disks and goniometers that belong to these naval guns have been built …
These tools help gunners to accurately measure the shelling distance, and even if they miss the target, the gap will not exceed 20 steps.
Chapter seven hundred and sixteen What
Even if the imperial navy warships fired flowering bullets with no precision, the captain’s face showed a complicated expression of shock and dignity. After all, the number of guns of the other side was there.
Even if there is no advantage in shooting accuracy and quantity, there will still be a few flowering bombs hitting their own warships.
When the sea exploded before the flowering bomb warship, the captain put away his contempt for the imperial navy in his heart … and then ordered …
"What are you still doing … making all the soldiers and horses of the ship fight back … the warship turns right and the port gun and the bow main gun fight back … The helmsman is ready to avoid the imperial artillery attack from now on …"
As soon as the captain gave the order, he was just awakened in the middle of becoming speechless.
Then quickly pounce on his gun position to adjust the artillery.
At the same time, it was just downwind and the warship was quickly steered by the helmsman, and the port side of the warship was facing the imperial navy warship still more than two miles away …
At this moment, although more than 30 flowering bombs exploded in the first round of the imperial navy warship, they failed to hit the Tiger and Leopard warship, but the new red cannon had a range of more than two miles, which directly made them full of confidence in the naval battle that had already erupted.
Add 2,200 silver to lure hundreds of loyalist gunners in the cabins of three warships, just like taking stimulants, and load the red cannon in front of them as quickly as possible, hoping to hit the Tiger and Leopard warships in the second round of shooting.
However, compared with the new naval gun with the breech loading of the Tiger and Leopard Army, the officer gunner still uses the breech loading, even if it is fast, it can’t compare with the Tiger and Leopard Army.
When dozens of loyalist gunners had just cleaned the gun bore and prepared to load the red cannon with gunpowder and fireworks.
More than a dozen gun windows on the port side of the Tiger and Leopard Army warship have stretched out more than a dozen dark naval gun barrels.
Of course, the two naval guns located at the bow of the ship also hold their dark muzzle high to prepare for shooting …
Then the captain’s murderous voice sounded again …
"In all naval gun shelling, the imperial warships will sink the horse and fire at the shortest time …"
"Boom …" Just as the command reached deafening gunfire, the warships began to ring.
The captain in the command module of the warship clearly felt that the gun sounded and the huge warship with a displacement of more than 1,000 tons directly trembled like an earthquake.
If the captain didn’t hold the cabin guardrail firmly just now, it would probably directly make the captain fall to the ground.
Of course, I already like this feeling. The captain didn’t pay attention to the fact that these guns just sounded and raised a monocle to look at the battlefield …
Although the Tiger and Leopard Army is equipped with naval guns, it also has no rifling, but some aiming instruments with fixed gun barrels have no influence of big winds and waves, which has enabled these naval guns to achieve an effective range hit rate of about 20% …
