0686 Expression
The messenger ship is a fast shutdown ship. When the ship approached Liu Pei's fleet, Liu Pei on the deck also saw him. At the same time, Liu Pei also saw the warrior who kept waving his arms on the bow.
Liu Pei smiled and said maliciously: "When the ship enters the range, then raise our flag."
The guard laughed and went to pass the order. The warrior was worried that he would be attacked, but when he approached carefully, the other party did not take action, which made him feel a little safe.
But after the ship entered the precise range, the black-bottomed skeleton flags raised on all the ships almost at the same time! This scared the warrior! As a garrison guard at the port, no matter how stupid he was, he knew what the black-bottomed skeleton flag represented?
At the same time, he was in Nagasaki, and of course he also knew how Tanikawa Kwonji treated the envoys of the Red Eyed Dragon King roughly. Tanikawa Kwonji not only did not hand over Zheng Zhilong's property, but also whipped and expelled these envoys. As a result, the Red Eyed Dragon King is here to take revenge in person!
The warrior knew what would happen after seeing the flag. He immediately ordered the ship to turn around and return to the port. Japan's sailing and paddles were both used, and the speed was still very fast. But no matter how fast he was, he could not be faster than the shells!
Under Liu Pei's order, the three warships closest to the ship's closing were fired almost at the same time. Sixty shells hit more than 40, instantly tore the ship's closing to pieces!
Now all the Japanese in the port know the purpose of this fleet! This way of expression is so clear! Tanikawa Kiyoro stood on the wall of Tianshou Pavilion and witnessed the tragedy through a telescope. Cold sweat instantly covered his face!
To be honest, he regrets swallowing those industries now! The reason why Tanikawa Kyoro swallowed those industries was on the one hand because of greed. On the other hand, he didn't want those industries to fall into the hands of others in vain. After all, those industries were left by his friend Li Dan.
But at this time he had no way out! If he bowed his head to Liu Pei and handed over those industries, he might be able to avoid a war. But his reputation would be hit hard. At that time, I am afraid that the position he pursued by Nagasaki will not be guaranteed.
Maybe he would be ordered to seduce the war by the Edo shogunate! So he could only bite the bullet and fight this war.
However, Tanikawa Kiyoro was once a fierce general on the battlefield. After calming down, he immediately ordered the navy to go out to sea to set up a formation. At the same time, he also ordered all the war-capable ships in the port to go out to sea together.
He saw that Liu Pei was not in a hurry to attack Nagasaki, but wanted to give him a deterrent. He wanted to defeat his fleet in front of everyone. But this also gave him a chance to live in death. As long as he could defeat Liu Pei's fleet, his reputation would not only not be hit, but would have a huge increase.
In fact, his idea was right. Liu Pei asked the fleet to wander only in the sea, just waiting for Tanikawa Kinjiro to send all the navy troops to defeat them with dignity, giving him and the Nagasaki defenders a profound lesson and a huge threat!
Under the order of Tanikawa Kiyoro, the navy from Nagasaki and the collected ships gathered outside the port, and then slowly met Liu Pei's fleet. They had to do this. They could not defend the wronged and aggrieved defense when fighting at their own doorstep. That would be too shameful to the Japanese samurai!
The fleet that Nagasaki fought was about a hundred. But there were only seven or ten real warships in the actual fleet. The remaining ships were all temporarily collected and their combat effectiveness was not high.
The commanding fleet warriors also knew this, but driven by honor, they still took the initiative to launch an attack. The naval battle began under the gaze of Nagasaki.
Liu Pei knew the psychology of these Japanese people well. The more dignified they defeated them, the more fierce they beat them. The more people killed them, the more honest they became and the more they admired you. So Liu Pei not only did not attack while they were gathering, but instead retreated a distance when their fleet sailed and gave up enough sea surface. Liu Pei's move made the Nagasaki fleet and the soldiers on the land breath a sigh of relief, but also admired Liu Pei's courage to do so.
Instead of starting a war immediately, Liu Pei took advantage of the speed advantage and made two circles on the sea. As a result, the Japanese habit of rushing in wars and the problem of the fleet not coordinating training was immediately exposed.
Now running in the front
Almost all of them are fast but thin, and the other tower ships and red seal ships landed behind. Seeing the fighter plane, Liu Pei immediately ordered the fleet to turn and start the attack.
Liu Pei divided the fleet into two left and right teams, approaching the city wall fleet in two directions, and actually put on an encirclement! This made the warriors on the ship very angry! They had never seen a small number of fleets surrounding a large number of fleets! They firmly believed that this was a humiliation! So the warriors on the ship were so angry that they were crazy and desperately commanding the soldiers to speed up the ship to get closer to their opponents. As a result, the fleet was further dispersed.
Liu Pei's actions may be a humiliation for them, but for Liu Pei, it is a correct assessment of his own strength.
Just when the fleets of both sides were close to 400 meters, the Nagasaki Fleet took the lead in firing. However, there was no war for a long time. The sailors of the Nagasaki Fleet lacked training and the shells fired were extremely scattered. In addition, the gun caliber of the Nagasaki Fleet was relatively small, so even if the ships that Liu Pei felt would be bounced away by the hard wooden boards!
The Nagasaki fleet fired, but the Liu Pei fleet never fired. They just kept adjusting their course and speed, slowly approaching the Nagasaki fleet. When the fleets of both sides approached more than 300 meters, the Liu Pei fleet finally started shooting!
After the flagship raised the flag, all the warships fired dense shells at the Nagasaki fleet! Liu Pei had just defeated the Spaniards, the Netherlands and Liu Xiang, and his morale was at its peak. Moreover, the sailors experienced actual combat, and their experience and artillery skills improved a lot. So their shells were much more accurate than the Nagasaki fleet!
With the rumbling sound of cannons, the sound of cannons at sea increased countless times for a time! The smoke of gunpowders also covered the sea surface. The dense shells broke through the smoke, roared from the sky and flew through the sea between the two fleets, and smashed heavily onto the enemy's ship!
