BXBX NOVEL Chapter 246: The artillery roared!
On the flagship, Sun Dongxu was using a telescope to look at the hundreds of ships gathered in the western waters. These ships were of different sizes, ranging from tens of meters in size to five or six meters in size. Pirates with spears and swords, when the fleet entered the dock, these ships had already assembled, as if they were waiting for something, and after black smoke rose from the dock, these ships began to move towards the fleet.
"Battle on board?" Sun Dongxu looked at the seven or eight-meter-long spears in the hands of those people. He had seen these weapons before, and they were used for fighting on the water. He and his father had also used them before. When merchant ships fight.
Xia Guangyi stood on the armed treasure ship adjacent to Sun Dongxu. The two were separated by more than 20 meters. He said: "What should I do? Do you want to fire now? With our range, these pirate ships are all within range."
Putting down the binoculars, Sun Dongxu shook his head, "There has already been a fight on the pier, which means that Zeng Zhida\'s negotiations have failed. We have no room for change with these pirates. We can eliminate as many pirates as we can now, otherwise Yizhou will go to sea in the future." The ships will still face the threat of pirates, if you shoot now, it will only scare them away, let’s fire them when they are 100 meters away, and try to wipe out this wave of pirates.”
"Okay, I understand!" Xia Guangyi gave a military salute. Although the two are good brothers, there are only superiors and subordinates on the battlefield.
On the pier, Zeng Zhida chopped down the last pirate who resisted. He glanced at the pirates who were fleeing in the same direction and said, "The first regiment, the second regiment will follow me, and the rest will hold the lead and clean up the battlefield."
"Yes!" The soldiers of the first regiment and the second regiment responded in unison. Although Li Min changed the mansion system to the recruitment system, he still used the mansion system. Wei commands a regiment of 200 people, each regiment is divided into two brigades, each brigade has 100 people, and there is a brigade commander. There were ten people in the fire, and a fire chief was assigned to manage them. Because of this operation, Zeng Zhida, who was still a school lieutenant before departure, was temporarily appointed as a captain, and he was in charge of twelve regiments of the Marine Corps.
With the first regiment in pursuit, the remaining third and fourth regiments began to clean up the battlefield. In just ten minutes, they wiped out more than a thousand people, and the entire pier was dyed red, except for these dead pirates. , They also found many slaves looted by pirates in the rooms on the pier, whether they were Tang people, Silla people, or dark Kunlun slaves.
Following the wind, the pirate ships approached very quickly. In just half an hour, more than 300 pirate ships reached the sea area 500 meters away from the fleet.
On the warships, the messengers kept waving semaphore, and the artillerymen of the ten warships were all in place. On the external side, the firing ports of the treasure ships were opened one by one, and all the artillery were pushed out to aim the muzzles at the invading pirates.
When black smoke rose from the pier, Koizumi Junichiro ordered the fleet to move forward. He was the Japanese who was with Wang Shijie. Among the pirates in this sea area, besides Wang Shijie, there were other Japanese pirates. The reason why Wang Shijie was able to grow was all dependent on the support of the Japanese pirates, and he was also bought by Wang Shijie when he was in the Japanese country. Because he was good at commanding the fleet, he was quickly reused by Wang Shijie.
As the fleet approached the fleet of the King of Shu, Koizumi Junichiro became more and more uneasy. His intuition on the battlefield made him feel a little unusual. When any fleet faced hundreds of pirate ships, it would either run away, or the ship would rush out to defend. Soldiers, but the dozen or so warships didn\'t move at all, only a lot of square openings suddenly opened on the side, and some black tubes protruded out, and the deck of the ship was always calm, as if they didn\'t care at all.
But despite this, the smoke rising from the pier has conveyed Wang Shijie\'s order to seize these warships, "Kill...", the huge warships are in front of them, and the pirates raised their weapons and shouted, and at this moment, The deafening sound resounded through the sky, Junichiro Koizumi saw countless flames lit up on the opposite side, and then black **** flew over like lightning.
"Boom..." The black iron ball hit the pirate ship and made a dull sound. A pirate ship was instantly reduced to powder after being hit by dozens of shells, and some pirates were directly hit by shells, and their whole bodies were beaten into mud.
Fear, deep fear, the shouts of the pirates turned into mourning in an instant, the ships were torn apart, and the entire fleet was in chaos.
Koizumi Junichiro was standing on the ship, there was no one on either side of him, countless shells whizzed past his ears and took away all his crew members, he was speechless, his legs trembled and he couldn\'t move, In his eyes were countless flying sawdust and blood, amidst the rumbling sound, the sea ships sank one by one.
Sun Dongxu looked at the group of fleeing pirates and the desperate expressions on their faces. For the first time, he fully realized the horror of this weapon. Just a hundred meters away, the warships of those pirates were directly pierced by shells, and more than a dozen shells It was enough to destroy a sea ship, and most of the pirates were directly hit by the dense shells, and flew out in a string, seeing that they could not survive.
I looked at my watch and saw that the shooting had been going on for ten minutes. Within the range of more than ten miles of the naval guns, these pirate ships had nowhere to escape. The ships trying to escape were also sunk one by one. Only floating debris and corpses remained on the ground.
"Stop shooting, catch all those who are not dead, we still need someone to guide us." Sun Dongxu gave the order, and the group of pirates were like bereaved dogs, without any threat.
After his order was issued, the fleet started to move, sailing towards the destroyed pirate ship, the ropes were thrown down one by one, and the pirates who were not dead seemed to grasp the life-saving straw and climbed up the rope.
"Lieutenant Sun, let\'s catch a Japanese." When Sun Dongxu was staring intently at the sea, a soldier threw a trembling man in front of Sun Dongxu. "According to those pirates, he is the great pirate Wang Shijie." Moreover, besides this pier, Wang Shijie’s real pirate fleet is moored in another pier, which is said to be not far from here.”
Glancing at the Japanese man, he said, "What\'s your name?"
"The young one is called Koizumi Junichiro." At this time, Koizumi Junichiro was scared out of his wits and dared not hide anything.
Sun Dongxu sneered, "You should know where the pier is, lead the way now, or I\'ll throw you down to feed the fish."
"Yes, yes..." Junichiro Koizumi nodded his head.
At this time, Zeng Zhida had been chasing for nearly forty minutes on the coast. After crossing a hillside, it suddenly became clear to him. It turned out that outside the forest was a semicircular sea area surrounded by mountains. When the fleet came just now, they were blocked by the mountains outside the bay and did not see the bay.
The escaped pirates were still running down the hillside one by one, while more than a hundred ships of various sizes were docked on the side of the beach, some of which had already begun to flee.
"Chasing!" With a loud cry, Zeng Zhida rushed down the hillside alone, followed by more than 600 marines, screaming and rushing down. He had heard the cannon just now, and the fleet must have started a battle, so he took it away. At this pier, they stood firm at the first step in Ryukyu. Although these pirates were not good guys, Zeng Zhida knew that these people still had some skills. At least the pier they chose was better than the other. rs
