Liu Pei has been staring at the location of the two strategic lines on the sea in the ship building. When the battle lines between the two sides are parallel again, Liu Pei knows that the time is up and he can finally start the right attack!

He yelled and passed the order: "Rise the full fire flag! Order the bombardment gun to shoot!"

A staff officer screamed excitedly, shook the messenger away and went to pass the order himself. Soon, a yellow background with a flag with a red explosion pattern rose from the mast of Liu Pei's flagship. When all the ships saw this flag, the captains issued the same order: "Dismantle the bow of the ship, the fence of the stern gun position, and the bombardment gun fired with all their strength!"

Liu Pei's flagship Shandong was the first to receive the order. The sailors and gunners cheered and rushed from the cabin to the gun positions at the bow and stern. The soldiers who arrived at the gun positions were the soldiers at the stern. They used axes to smash the reinforced steel bars on the outer periphery of the gun positions. When the steel bars landed on the ground, the upper fence of the gun positions fell down in three pieces. The sailors lifted them up and threw them into the sea.

It turned out that the high fence was composed of two parts. The fence below was the real gun position fence, which was to protect the gunners and artillery. The fence above was simply to cover the gun position and not be discovered by people.

As soon as the cannon was lifted, the ugly short-barrel bombardment cannon in the turret was revealed! When the short-barrel bombardment was displayed, Song Ke and the others were stunned in surprise! The telescope in Song Ke's hand was almost thrown away! He stared at the thick caliber of the bombardment with the telescope and couldn't help but murmur: "God! How heavy cannonballs do they want to fire? Are they 200 pounds or 300 pounds?"

He had instantly automatically figured out his warship, and was smashed into two pieces by a large iron ball falling from the sky! However, Song Ke immediately overturned his random thoughts! In Song Ke's perception, such a huge iron ball cannot be driven by a small amount of gunpowder! If the gunpowder is loaded too much, the only result of that cannon is to explode!

But he was still very surprised what the other party wanted to do with this cannon? Is it a shot of super dense shotgun? Song Ke felt it was unlikely! But Song Ke firmly believed that this was a useful weapon! Because Song Ke knew that no one would

So stupid that he placed a useless weapon on a warship.

After the enclosure was opened, a group of sailors surrounded and began to operate the cannon. The two sailors raised a huge wool brush together, reached into the cannon chamber and pounded it vigorously, then pulled it out. As soon as they left the muzzle, the two gunners took out two silk-wrapped bags from the fat iron box of the cannon position and stuffed them into the muzzle in turn.

After they pushed it away, two more soldiers rushed up and used a huge push rod to push the gunpowder into the bottom of the barrel. As soon as they pulled out the push rod, the two soldiers raised a shell larger than the head and placed it in the barrel mouth.

Then another soldier rushed forward, poked a protruding wooden fuse on the shell with a thick awl in his hand, and expanded the hole with force. When he pulled out the awl strap and drew gunpowder on the shoulder strap, he quickly dodged. The two soldiers holding the push rod moved forward again, pushed the shell into the cannon chamber and stretched out, then pulled out the support rod and escaped.

At this time, the gunner behind the gun position had already stabbed into the fire door of the cannon with a sharp cone, stirring it hard to ensure that the gunpowder pack was pierced. Then he inserted a fuse into it. As soon as he had done this whole set of actions, the gunman next to the cannon had already determined that the cannon had been loaded and immediately shouted loudly: "Fire!"

The gunner immediately pressed the fire medium in his hand on the fuse. The fuse was filled with quick gunpowder and burned very quickly! The fuse burned to the depths of the cannon chamber in the blink of an eye! There was only a loud "boom" sound! A huge ball shell flew out of the cannon chamber with smoke and flew straight to the enemy ship!

Just as the stern gun position was fired first, the bombardment gun at the first gun position was fired immediately! Two consecutive "booms, booms" sounds, and two huge flowering bullets flew away in the naval battle for the first time!

At this moment, Song Ke was almost completely shocked! He really didn't expect that the other party would really fire such a large shell! This completely violated the knowledge he had come into contact with!

Song Ke stared at the two huge shells. They seemed to fly very slowly, and they could take a picture of them with just reaching out. But in fact, the flowering bullet flew very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they passed through the two ships.

A distance of more than a hundred meters.

As a result, a flowering bomb hit the backside of Song Ke's flagship Violent Ship, making a loud "bang" sound! Then it fell into the sea without an explosion. Another flowering bomb passed through the gap between the front mast and the main mast, and flew into the distance through the warship! After leaping out a long distance, it exploded at a position close to the sea!

The huge explosion sound scared Song Ke and his whole body trembled! This was the first time he had seen an explosive artillery shell! Even Captain Gaston beside him turned blue with fear!

This is a normal reaction when a normal person sees something he does not understand. Not only Song Ke and Captain Gaston. The sailors who saw this scene on the entire flagship Violent Ship took a deep breath, and then gave it out with luck! The scene had a great impact on their senses!

On the flagship, Liu Pei and the sailors sighed regretfully. The Ming Dynasty saw that it was clear whether the shooting was accurate or not, but the wooden tubes on the shells were obviously longer. However, everyone was not frustrated, because this was normal for the first time the artillery was fired.

Just when everyone was feeling sorry, the gunman on the stern of the ship was cursing the gunner who installed wooden letter tubes for the flowering bullets with filthy words. Although the gunman was young, he was slutty all day long and could not speak swearing!

The scolded soldier was so angry that his face turned red, but he didn't say anything! But he could still see the anger in his eyes. He was angry, and his hands were still very light. He gently stuffed the newly set up tube into the shell, immediately retreated quickly, giving up space for other sailors to carry the shells. Then he shouted at the cannon leader: "If there is another problem this time, someone will cut off my bird!"

The soldiers on the fort burst into laughter, but their movements never stopped. In just over ten seconds, the second round of shooting of the artillery was ready. The cannon leader shouted, and the bombardment was fired again!
Chapter completed!
