Although Zheng Zhilong gave all the greatest strength to Zheng Zhifeng, the gap is still very big compared to the East China Sea Fleet.

Zheng Zhifeng was able to fight back, but the damage to the East China Sea Fleet was not good.

Although the bronze cannon can hit a distance of one thousand meters, it is difficult to penetrate the third-level battleship.

This is caused by two reasons.

First, the Xia army's battleship was very strong. A distance of one thousand meters consumed a lot of kinetic energy of the shells, and the damage effect could not be achieved;

Secondly, Xia Guo deliberately controlled the caliber of the bronze cannon.

Whether it is for use for secondary troops or sold to external forces, the caliber of the bronze cannon is only 75 mm.

The power of the bronze cannon is not enough and cannot be seen on land, but it is inevitably diminished when used to deal with the sturdy battleships.

Zheng Zhifeng's troops charged towards the East China Sea Fleet almost all of them were piled up by human lives.

Even if he spread all the warships and attacked from different routes, it was still the case.

Fortunately, the distance is getting closer and the shooting rate of the shells has begun to rise, allowing Zheng Zhifeng to grit his teeth and persevere.

Otherwise, he might have collapsed.

From time to time, he stretched his neck and looked south, hoping that Zheng Zhilong would appear.

But unfortunately, Zheng Zhilong was blocked tightly.

Even if Zheng Zhilong had more warships in his hands, he was facing the old-fashioned squadron with the worst combat power in the East China Sea Fleet.

Wang Chang knew that the difference between the warships in his hands was too big and Zheng Zhilong was too big, so he had to adopt appropriate tactics.

He placed all the warships across the Jintang waterway, and then desperately poured out rockets in the direction where Zheng Zhilong came.

As a result, the fires on the entire sea surface were endless.

Zheng's ship was wasted outside the sea of ​​fire and could not move forward in an instant.

"Mr. Marquis, what should we do?"

Zheng Zhilong had heard the endless sound of cannons in the north and knew that Zheng Zhifeng had already fought with the main force of the East China Sea Fleet.

If the reinforcements cannot be overcome here, the power in Zheng Zhifeng's hands alone will have less than 50% of the hope of winning.

However, the partial division of the East China Sea Fleet was firmly in front of him and could even set fire on the sea. He had no good idea.

Fortunately, it was a south wind at this time, and he was at the upper vent. Otherwise, the sea of ​​fire would float along the current and he would have to retreat continuously.

But no matter what, the squadron's goal of delaying Zheng Zhilong has achieved. @美\/Shuge* First update~~

For a moment, Zheng Zhilong was wondering whether to bypass Jintang Island and join forces with Zheng Zhifeng from the other side.

But he also understood that if he did this, the Jintang Waterway would be completely empty. By then, the East China Sea Fleet would go south and be unobstructed, and his plan would be completely bankrupt.

In desperation, he could only wait.

It depends on how many rockets the East China Sea Squadron can have and whether they can always isolate the sea surface.

His waiting is worth it.

The number of rockets in Wang Chang's hand is indeed limited, and only one rocket launcher can be equipped on the old warship. Not to mention the small number, it is still very slow to load.

After about two incense sticks, the flames on the sea gradually dissipated with the flow of the sea water.

"Roar up and kill them all without leaving any living."

Zheng Zhilong was ruthless and showed the ferocity of a pirate.

Although there were no rockets, Wang Chang was not very anxious.

"Spend to the mine."

Due to the structural reasons, there is no way to arrange too many artillery and rocket launchers on the old warship, but some simple equipment can be installed.

With his orders, things similar to the style of a catapult were operated one after another, throwing round and large iron balls into the sea directly in front of him.

It is the mine developed by the Xia Navy.

This time, because the side was in a headwind, in order to avoid the mines being thrown out and floated back, a fixed-point arrangement was adopted.

After the mines crashed into the sea, the iron chains on them sank to the bottom of the sea with the anchor head. In this way, they can only float within a very small range and will not go with the flow.

Although Zheng Zhilong saw some throwing things on the Xia Kingdom warship, he didn't know why. Add. (This chapter is not finished!)

Chapter 1125      The Battle of the East China Sea (5)

The situation was urgent, and he didn't have time to go into it.

Zheng's main fleet began to pounce on him in a dark and rush.

The fierce battle broke out fiercely in the Jintang waterway.

Wang Chang directed all the warships and desperately fired at the Zheng pirates rushing towards him.

Because the waterway is narrow, there is no need to worry that Zheng can go around in other directions. The squadron does not have to be distracted and only focuses on dealing with the enemy in front of him.

Speaking of which, their shooting environment is actually better than the main force.

After all, the main combat area is on the wide sea surface, and Zheng Zhifeng is scattered very wide, which greatly affects the accuracy of the artillery.

Unlike them, just shoot forward.

Zheng Zhilong lined all the warships equipped with bronze cannons in front, charging and firing.

The damage to the war between the two sides is increasing rapidly.

The protective power of the Xia army's old warships was completely incomparable to that of the battleships. Soon two ships were smashed into a big hole and sea water poured in.

Seeing that the ship began to sink, the officers and soldiers on the ship had no other choice but to put down the boats and move.

However, Zheng's warship was sunk more.

And Zheng Zhilong finally crashed into the mine formation.

I heard the water surface suddenly tremble, and a powerful column of water soared into the sky. It actually pushed a huge lucky ship into the air and disintegrated on the spot.

The falling debris also smashed the nearby ships very hard, and two Cangshan boats were even sunk directly. Updated by Wuwu @

"Be careful, there is something weird in the water."

Zheng Zhilong was startled and quickly started to give orders.

Only then did the pirates of Zheng realize that the things that the Xia Navy threw into the sea before were so terrifying.

In order to avoid the same misfortune, many ships even sent special personnel to lie on the bow of the ship to search for traces of the mines.

However, when the Xia Navy made this weapon, it had long thought about hidden issues.

Especially for fixed-point mines, due to the involvement of anchor chains, they will not float up.

This kind of mine is hidden one to two meters below the water surface. It seems very shallow, but because the water on the East China Sea is very turbid and the waves caused by artillery shells are surging, it is very difficult to detect.

Soon, another earth-shaking noise was heard, and another Zheng warship was blown to pieces.

Seeing the entire sea surface full of his subordinates struggling to ask for help, Zheng Zhilong couldn't help but feel frightened.

The tragic level of today's battle is far beyond the Luowan Battle. Even if Zheng won, he would probably be hurt.

But he has reached this point and he has no way out. Except for victory, everything else is just a tragedy.

Fortunately, the Xia army's squadron was limited in strength and could not prevent the Zheng family from approaching.

Once the two sides fight, Zheng Zhilong is very convinced that he can complete the battle quickly and has time to support Zheng Zhifeng...
