Chapter 817: The Power of Order
Half an hour later, Xu Jun formed seven columns of nearly seventy large and small warships. Han Tong looked around and saw sails on the sea like clouds, waiting for the battle!
The sun and the southerly wind dispelled the fog. Perhaps the distance between the two sides was getting closer. In front of Han Tong's eyes, the sails of the enemy ship were also huge! It seemed that the entire sea was filled with sails.
What he has the most at this moment is no longer worry, but excitement!
The vast waves are endless, and on the spectacular fleet, the black guns of artillery are showing off a certain force! Order, rules, destructive power, and those irrational feelings strongly stimulate the emotions of Han Tong and the soldiers. The men seem to have instinctive mania towards all this!
Han Tong stood on the wooden building at the stern of the boat, his muscles were tight and his head was tight. He stared at the top of his eyes and felt the excitement at this moment. He couldn't suppress his mood and shouted: "It's time to repay the emperor's kindness!"
For a moment, the "Long Live" shouts on the Mulan ship rose with the wind, and the shouts spread throughout the sea.
Loyalty is also the most important order of this era. At this time, the boys are not willing to resist easily. Instead, they will consciously maintain such a hierarchical order, just like filial piety.
Han Tong solemnly pulled the sword out of his waist, and the metal rubbed the scabbard into a special sound of "silks" and was full of murderous aura. Although the sword was almost useless to Han Tong's navy, he held the weapon in his mind.
"Send order!" Han Tong shouted loudly, enjoying the pleasure of giving orders, and thousands of soldiers were given orders. "Each ship is at full speed and attacks in line!"
Deep in the sea, the rising sun on the land shrouded the halo in the mist. A row of soldiers blew the ox horns, and the graceful and atmospheric sound of swaying slowly and forcefully. The yellow dragon flag on the Mulan ship "cracked" in the sea breeze in the red sun, and the triangle flag also changed its arrangement shape.
The heavy Mulan giant ship broke through the waves, and the "swish" sound of the white waves echoed the shouts of people, like a huge symphony.
Following the direction of the black tide, it is also a good wind!
Although the enemy had entered his sight half an hour ago, it took a long time to get closer. This long process gradually wiped out Han Tong's moment of high mood and gradually calmed down.
The large Japanese ships showed no signs of shifting direction or turning around. Their tactics were also very refreshing, and they all came slowly in the face of the wind.
Han Tong said quietly: "What kind of military general will show courage in such an unfavorable situation?"
After a long time, the fleets of both sides gradually approached! The warships spread across the Japanese army were countless times that of Xu's army, because the Xu army was a column of seven columns and only seven ships on the cross-section! The Japanese army completely formed an overwhelming military advantage on the left and right wings, and in fact, their number of ships was ten times that of Xu's army.
In the middle, two Mulan ships side by side rushed into the group of Japanese warships! In a short while, countless enemy warships rushed towards the Xu Army Column from the left and right.
"Swoosh swish swish swish..." Many Japanese warships nearby fired arrows. Recently, some enemy soldiers on the ships with headscarves or cold hats were eager to try, but the hull of the Mulan ship was tall and it was probably difficult to attack on the side.
The arrow feathers were nailed to the side of a Mulan ship, on the deck. On the side of the lower cabin, a row of copper cannons with bright and clanging bodies were adjusting their direction, and the black holes showed murderous aura.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang! The flames blew out from white smoke, and the ten-pound iron ball suddenly flew over the bow of an enemy ship and penetrated the sails. The enemy troops above were in an uproar, and someone fell on the deck when frightened, looking like they were blown over by the strong wind of shells.
With a "bang", a large hole appeared on the deck of a Japanese warship, and wooden pieces flew around. Everyone exclaimed, screams and screams came from the deck. Some people were stunned and had not yet come back to their senses and found that the hull was tilting. Some people shouted in a Japanese voice: "The bottom of the ship is broken! Hurry up... block it!"
"Boom boom boom..." More than ten copper cannons on the starboard side of the Mulan ship opened fire one after another, and the entire sea outside seemed to be covered by gunpowder.
As the thunderous cannon sounded in the cabin, the sound of the iron chain pulling and rubbing. The heavy copper cannon slid backwards, and the rear seat rushed onto the iron wooden rail, the muzzle tilted down, and the recoil stopped after a while. The cabin was already filled with a pungent smell of gunpowder.
The general shouted: "Clean Mars and load it up immediately!" The cabin was filled with people and noisy.
The mother-child cannons on the top were also thumping, and the wooden boards on the heads of the navy soldiers were shaking! The cannons were very loud, and the cannons on the port side also opened deafeningly. In addition to the loud shouts of the generals in the cabin, the noise of people was also covered up.
The Mulan ship took the lead and rushed straight to the depths of the enemy group. A Japanese warship ahead was dodging without any haste. The Mulan ship was approaching quickly with wind and flowing! "Ah..." The helmsman and several soldiers widened their eyes and looked at the commander on the ship's tower shouted: "Crash!"
"Wow!" The people on the boat screamed in horror. A group of people didn't even care about bows and arrows. Some people were shaking with longbows! Everyone was shouting, staring at the giant ship in front of them and quickly approaching... The bow was wrapped in iron sheets, and the sharp edges were like plowshares!
The two Japanese soldiers under the mast turned their heads and pulled the hemp rope on the sail in a hurry. But it was too late. After a while, there was a loud "bang", and a violent vibration and the sound of "clicking" the wood breaking came. Some people on the deck fell straight into the sea without standing firmly.
The Ship of Japan was completely out of control, and its weight was not on the same order of magnitude as the Mulan ship. It was immediately driven by the inertia of the huge hull and floated northward. The hull was gradually pressed into the sea by the Mulan ship. The broken board and the collapsed canvas were shouting in panic. A warrior sat up from the tilted deck, threw away the bow and arrow in his hand, and hurriedly pulled out the short knife in his arms to cut the rope on the armor...
"Bang bang bang..." The mother-in-law gun quickly opened fire again, and the huge lead ball hit the flank Yujun warship. The wood chips splashed, and the deck and hull were cracked and damaged by dense lead bullets. The person hit by the lead bullet screamed and struggled on the deck.
As soon as the Mulan ship was sailing, the Qingzhou ship that followed closely followed approached the injured enemy ship again. "Bang bang bang..." The smoke from the Qingzhou ship rushed over, and the lead balls roared, making the Yujun wooden ship messy, and the boards cracked and leaked in many places. The Yujun on the ship had lost the power to counterattack, and the people who were still alive were busy scooping water with wooden barrels and repairing the hull.
However, the light boat that arrived later approached ten steps and fired the third round of cannons at them. The ship screamed everywhere, blood flowing, bows and arrows and tools were thrown everywhere, and the hull was soaked in water was no longer saved! The lucky person quickly removed all the metal accessories on his body and prepared to fall into the water to escape.
On the sea surface, there is unprecedented heroic scene at this moment!
The smoke and fog in the air are mixed together, and when Feng Shui is surging, the large sails are like clouds. "Boom boom boom!" "Boom boom boom!" In the smoke, bursts of lightning are everywhere, like lightning flashing in the clouds.
It seems that it is not the ordinary people who are moving, but create a scene of natural divine power. Countless people struggle helplessly and shout in the roar and flashing.
There were broken wooden boards, canvas and debris floating on the sea, and many of their heads were undulating in the water, as if they were refugees after the earthquake and flood.
Han Tong looked at the scene around him and could not judge whether the Japanese army was vulnerable or brave and good at fighting... because their bows and arrows were almost no threat to Xu army, almost as if they were being shot against the door. However, the Japanese army was still rushing, and the bows and arrows were rushing up!
An enemy ship successfully hooked a shibo ship, but the situation of a group of Japanese soldiers on the deck was simply terrible. First, they were bombarded by the cannons below the deck of the shibo ship, and then the ships approaching the column used their mother-and-child guns and guns to shoot reinforcements. "Ahhhh..." A Japanese soldier was about to jump onto the deck of Xu Jun's Qingzhou ship, and blood beads splashed on his back. The warrior in his hand also blurted out into the air, and his whole body hit the side of the ship and rolled into the sea.
On the vast sea, the seven columns of Xu Army were flashing with fire, and they were like unstoppable, directly breaking through the central part of the Yujun fleet along the tide. Then, the southeast wind continued, and the entire army turned around and broke through to the west.
It was not until noon that the Japanese army's fleet had completely lost its formation and control. It was probably difficult for its general to order so many ships, and the sea was in chaos. A large number of Japanese army warships on the west side fled and sailed far away from the land of Jiuzhou.
Xu Jun pursued for half an hour, and saw that the Yu army was only concerned about running away and no ship came up to fight, so he turned around and returned to the initial warship. Han Tong wanted to fight back and attacked the eastern fleet again.
But at this time most of the remaining ships of the Japanese army ran away!
The battlefield was full of people, and many people were holding wooden boards and floating in the water and shouting.
Xu Jun's ship passed by, and many people first swam towards the ship, shouting towards the deck. The soldiers of Xu Jun couldn't understand what they were saying at all, so they had to have a row of bullets appear on the deck, "crackling..." Water splashed on the sea, and the people who fell into the water screamed everywhere. Xu Jun fired in turn, and the guns were heard continuously, and the defeated soldiers in the sea shouted everywhere.
Among the waves, countless people were fluttering in the messy debris and rain-like lead bullets. The sea surface seemed to be filled with lightning and the illusion of heavy rain. In fact, the hazy sunlight in the clouds was shining on the sea; it was also as if the sea was boiling and the water surface was boiling.
On Xu Jun's flagship, Wenwu looked at the scene in front of him silently. Han Tong said annoyedly: "The commander of the military will do this myself, don't blame me, do you think I will be lenient?"
Lu Duosun said: "I think the army does not hope that we can be lenient, but that we can win the decisive battle!"
