Chapter 1010

The sea is naturally choppy. The boat will shake violently with each wave on the water. If the person above is unstable, he is likely to fall into the sea.

It is inevitable that the sea will sink and float. Even large ships will shake in the sea, but they will be much more stable than small ships.

The boat slowly approached the "Xingyang" gunboat. Huang was stunned when he found that the expression on the rescued face was becoming more and more stiff. He couldn't help saying, "the sea water is a little cold. It's warm when you get on board and have a hot meal."

The water temperature of the sea will be lower than that of inland rivers. The difference between the water of some sea areas and that of inland rivers is even more than 10 degrees. If people fall into the sea, they will soon lose temperature.

"Thank you so much." Qin GUI had nothing to say and asked, "who's your brother?"

"As Han people, what thanks can we talk about when we meet certain rescue." Huang looked at Qin GUI and relaxed. Instead of answering his own questions, he asked, "the owners of the two ships are Chinese. Where are they?"

Qin GUI said, "my little brother is officially the owner of one of the ships."

"Is it the one that sank or the one that didn't sink?" Tian Fang guessed, "is it the one that didn't sink? It doesn't look like you are distressed."

Qin GUI was said to have a stiff expression.

The boat stopped on the side of the gunboat "Xingyang". The gunboat dropped a grid in order to let the people of the boat climb on board.

In fact, no matter military ships or civilian ships, they basically don't build stairs connecting the horizontal plane. If they want to get on the ship in the sea, they rely on the grid made of climbing rope sleeves.

In the distance, Hassan saw Qin GUI and others get on the boat and shouted to his companions to get ready.

"They..." hadisan shouted, "why didn't they fight as soon as they got on board?"

Hassan looked at it in amazement. He really saw that the deck of the gunboat "Xingyang" had broken out. He couldn't help scolding: "I know the Han people can't be trusted!"

It was a real fight because there was a man who couldn't stand the torture of conscience... Or didn't think he could do anything. He deliberately stayed on the boat and waited for others to get on board. He yelled at Qin GUI and others for evil intentions.

Qin GUI and others were also guilty. When they were yelled, it was someone who robbed the soldiers' weapons. The soldiers who responded naturally attacked, and dozens of people fought on the deck.

The "Xingyang" gunship is full of 320 people, including 70 members of the Marine Corps. Usually, 13 people are on duty on the deck.

The soldiers on board heard the roar and saw the rescued people snatching weapons. In fact, they were somewhat stunned. They felt incredible. At the same time, the soldier nearest to the attacker immediately attacked.

"Come on, come on!" Hassan roared, "the ship moves and the people in the water swim to the enemy ship!"

The ships on both sides were less than 80 meters away. At the same time, the gunboat "Xingyang" dropped its sails to save people, but the ship pretending to be hit dropped its anchor instead of lowering its sails.

Liang min was actually stunned when the attack occurred. He reacted and shouted, "sink it!"

This thing happened so fucking!

The Han Empire was at the height of the sun. As usual, no foreign country dared to move even civilian ships, let alone warships.

Today, not only the warships were attacked, but also the nationals of their own country participated. What are those Han people thinking that they will attack their warships with other nationalities?

"Forget the people on the deck!" Qin GUI kept yelling: "attack the flagship room. We must control the officers before we have a chance to live!"

The turret on the warship was already turning, and the dark muzzle pointed at the approaching ship. The next moment was a roar.

When Hassan and hadisan saw the turret of the "Xingyang" gunship turn around, they jumped out of the ship into the sea without thinking, shouting to let the nearby boats wait for themselves.

Four guns rang in a row, and the shelled ships were opened four big holes. At that moment, wood chips flew everywhere. Even if people in the explosion position were not killed by shells, the flying wood chips would kill and injure them seriously.

After four loud noises, at least twenty smaller guns broke out in a row.

The twenty shots were fired by the auxiliary guns on the side of the ship. Their caliber was much smaller than that of the main gun. The caliber of the main gun is 180 mm, and the auxiliary gun is 75 mm to 45 mm.

"I don't want to, I don't want to." With his head in his hands, Shi Xian said painfully to Huang Yihe Tian Fang, who was in custody, "they coerced me. I denounced them. Did I commit a crime?"

Everything was abnormal before. After the attack, everything became normal.

It was found that two ships collided twice in a row. When I went to save people, I saw the tension or panic of those people. It was not the emotional change after the accident, but the performance of ghosts in my heart!

Huang Yi and Tian Fang looked at each other. They couldn't give Shi Xian any answer, but they really wanted to be glad that Shi Xian didn't pass the test. They had to wait for more than 20 people to get out of the cabin. When they were attacked suddenly, the environment in the cabin was much more complex than that on the deck. It would be very annoying.

If you are attacked to a position with gunpowder, the consequences... Are unimaginable!

Inside the turret, gunner chief LV zhe observed the shelling effect through a telescope and asked the loader to replace the blasting bomb.

"Loading completed!"

"Aim ready!"

"Fire!"

After all the four shots were fired, the sails and masts of the ship had been cut bare, and the hull above the horizontal line was in a mess.

Before the main gun opened fire, the auxiliary gun had fired another round. LV zhe saw that the other party could not move, and saw that the sea was full of throbbing figures, and grinned out of the fort.

Gunboats are the highest embodiment of the force of the Han Empire. Even if the auxiliary guns do not join the shelling, the four main guns and two rounds of simultaneous firing can completely paralyze the enemy ship.

The ship, which was riddled with holes, not only stopped moving, but also began to sink.

LV zhe came to the side of the ship, pushed away a fellow who was operating a machine gun, and pulled the trigger against the boat that was rowing the oars.

The caliber of the machine gun is 23 mm. It has a drum. Each drum is filled with copper shells. The capacity of a drum is 30 rounds.

It was not only the machine guns operated by LV Zhe that were shooting at the boat, but a total of six machine guns were shooting. At the same time, Marines with flint guns also joined in shooting on the deck.

Qin GUI and others who had boarded the ship before were all solved in less than five minutes, and there was no threat at all.

As a matter of fact, there have always been 13 fully armed Marines on the deck, as well as no less than 15 sailors, and some off duty personnel on the deck ready to help, which together will not be less than 50.

Although not all of the 50 people wear weapons, more than 20 people such as Qin GUI also don't have weapons.

The pattern on the deck is not complex, even empty. Even in the event of a sudden attack, it will be a little stunned at the beginning, resulting in some casualties. However, when the Marine Corps and relevant crew react, more than 20 people such as Qin GUI don't even have the ability to splash. Soon, more than 20 people such as Qin GUI are either dead or captured.

The watchman in the top bucket of the ship's mast was the first to find the ship, and then the ship appeared on the side. Then all the watchmen sent a notice to the bottom.

"Seven from the side and two from behind." Xiao Xin is an intelligence officer. Naturally, he needs to coordinate the known Intelligence: "the ship can get on the sails in ten minutes at the fastest. They can't get close in an hour."

At sea, as long as you have enough eyesight, you can find distant ships far away.

While they can see each other, they can't contact in a short time. Xiao Xin said that the premise for the other party to be close within an hour is that their warship stops in place. If they move to form a chase, close contact will be a distant thing.

Liang min's face was covered with ferocity at the moment.

It was attacked. Although it didn't cause any trouble, it was really attacked!

No matter which route the navy of the Han Empire sailed on, they had always been the only ones who were domineering, and foreign ships could only swallow up even if they encountered unreasonable things.

"The other party is at full speed." Xiao Xin was also angry: "please order the captain."

"Warning shot." Liang Min said coldly, "no matter who they are, let them lower the sails. The warning is invalid and tilt the fire freely!"

Chen Tan tried to stop talking, but he still didn't say a word.

They were attacked, and the next moment a fleet came at full speed. It was already possible to guess who was coming.

If the sails are lowered during the warning shot, it is naturally an expression of no hostility.

If you still approach at full speed in the warning shooting, let alone an alien ship, even a domestic ship, if you dare to ignore the warning shooting, you deserve to be sunk.

"Something big must have happened." Chen Tan said grimly, "otherwise they would not dare to attack warships."

Liang min just "Oh" and didn't answer.

Major events are inevitable. The difference is whether accidents occur only in overseas territories or at home and abroad.

"Solve the things here..." Liang min took a deep breath: "return to the military port."

The ships coming at full speed don't know if they have a telescope. If so, the trouble of being able to observe the "Xingyang" from a long distance has been solved. Knowing that the "Xingyang" has no trouble, it dares to approach at full speed. It is either inevitable or fearless.

LV zhe emptied the drum and saw his colleague's sad face who had been robbed of the shooting position. He smiled and stepped aside: "when this thing shoots, the whole base is shaking. It's really strong!"

The machine gun has a base and can rotate 360 degrees. To control the steering, you need to rotate a turntable. The machine gunner who was robbed of the shooting position just now is acting as the steering operator.

"A row sweeps past, and being hit directly becomes a blood mist." LV zhe really thought it was enough to shoot people with machine guns: "the failure rate of this thing is not as exaggerated as the rumor?"

Song Hui, who was already full of depression, was even more depressed when he heard it. He said quietly, "this is the third generation machine gun. It uses a drum, not a chain. Each bullet is carefully selected again and again. With an ultra-high failure rate, the high research cost is wasted, or the loader is lazy."

"It's just too big and bulky." LV zhe blinked and said, "that is, it is installed on the ship as a fixed fort. Even if it can be pulled by animals on land, it is not so easy to stop and install."

The third generation of machine guns is much larger than the previous two generations. If you want to use it on land, install it on the frame made of wood. Once you shoot, the greatest possibility is to scatter the frame. If you build an iron frame, even if the animal power can pull it, it will not be much faster. Next, the cost will be too exaggerated.

The third generation machine guns are either installed on warships or arranged in some fixed urban fortifications.

Because the output is still too small, there are not many troops equipped with the third generation machine guns at present. Apart from the installation of gunships, only Miyagi has installed them.

The "Xingyang" with its sails raised twisted, with its bow towards the seven approaching fleets.

The seven ships did not lower their sails after being warned to shoot, but the other two ships lowered their sails after being warned to shoot.

Liang min did not intend to deal with the two ships that lowered their sails. In the face of the seven ships that were warned to shoot at full speed, he naturally chose the latter.

Next, a battle that could not even be called a naval battle began. During the high-speed movement of the Xingyang, the main gun and auxiliary gun fired one after another, which may be due to good luck. The first round of Volley hit the horizontal ship side of one of them, and the second round of Volley broke one of them.

The fleet of seven ships was at least 500 meters away from the Xingyang, but there were no two, and the remaining five immediately dispersed.

"Confirm that it is an enemy ship." Liang min showed a ferocious expression: "escape? Just their ship speed, still want to escape?"

If the gunships were not here and fled in the face of enemy ships, it would be difficult to destroy them all, even if they could catch up with them.

But here is a gunboat. Her main gun can shoot more than one kilometer, that is, the farther it is, the lower the hit rate. However, if it can reach within 500 meters, how can the hit rate be maintained at about 30%. As long as it can hit a sail, the enemy ship will slow down, and then it will fight better.

"Now even if we return to the military port, what should have happened has already happened." Liang min sought the advice of chief officer Chen Tan: "destroy the remaining five ships, check the two ships that lowered their sails, and then go back?"

Chen Tan has his own judgment. He believes that according to the current trend, as long as the main gun does not play abnormally, it is probably that every three rounds of Volley can paralyze an enemy ship. Each round of Volley takes about three minutes. At the same time, it is enough to get close to the next sub gun to join in the shooting, and even closer to the machine gun to join in the shooting, then of course it is to continue to fight.

"Night is the end of the war?" Chen Tan got Liang min's reply after asking and nodded: "then continue to fight."

In the sea area where they are currently located, it takes about seven hours to go to the military port of tianzhudu protectorate, and more than 24 hours to return to Annan protectorate.
