Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 741
Since approaching the Sulu Islands, Liu Hongjian's brows have not been relaxed. According to Zhang Jin, although Zheng's army was besieged, they were firmly on the four islands of Holo, Tawi, and Sibu.

After the main force of the Dutch army retreated, there were very few attackers in the Flemish countries, and most of the time was spent consolidating the captured islands.

But in less than ten days, Tawei was lost, Sibu was lost, and Sang'ah also hung the flag of Little Francine.

Zhang Jin didn't know what happened inside the Zheng family, but her expression was extremely painful, and she was tactfully urging Liu Hongjian to speed up the march along the way.

Naturally, Liu Hongjian didn't waste time, the Beiyang navy almost ran at full power, spared Tawei and Sang'a to rush over day and night.

There must be an internal problem, otherwise how could the wild fox-like Franjiguo work so hard, but he couldn't figure out what the specific situation was.

I hope Damu is okay, Liu Hongjian thought.

"My lord, Huo Luo is ahead. Look, they seem to be still fighting." Qi Yuangong on the Dingyuan said with a binoculars in one hand and a walkie-talkie in the other.

Both Zhang Jin and Liu Hongjian heard Qi Yuangong's voice, and they looked at each other with joy.

As long as there is still fighting, it proves that the Zheng family is still there, the soldiers of the Zheng family are still standing firm, and everything is not over yet.

"Listen, old Qi, the time has come to show my great military might. Spread this king's order to the whole army, aim the artillery of all warships at the fleet ahead, and give me a hard bombardment!"

Liu Hongjian picked up the binoculars and looked in the direction of Holo Island. He saw the sound of gunfire on the other side and black smoke rising from the direction of the fort. Then he grabbed the walkie-talkie and gave an order.

"Humble position is ordered!" Qi Yuangong accepted the order in a deep voice.

The Beiyang Navy has not been idle for several days. While speeding up its horsepower and rushing to Sulu, it urgently repaired the peeled steel armor on the surface of the battleship. Even so, the most severely damaged Jingyuan still has a bare side exposed Wooden boat noodles.

Half a quarter of an hour later, after an order from the standard bearer, all the warships of the Beiyang Navy began to operate.

The Weiyuan, where Qi Yuanbi, the youngest of the Qi family, is the center of the first front. Just like the last time they faced the Dutch fleet, the Weiyuan and Jingyuan are still at the forefront of the Beiyang Navy.

"Lord Cui, shall we give way to Deputy Admiral Qi this time?" First officer Wu Liuyi said to Cui Geng with a strange smile on the Jingyuan.

Qi Laosan, the captain of the Weiyuan ship who was on the same front, was very upset because of his outstanding record in the naval battle with the Dutch. Qi Laosan was different from his eldest brother Qi Yuangong and second brother Qi Yuanfu.

It's not easy for Qi Laosan to say anything on the battlefield, but Qi Laosan carried a pot of old shochu that he didn't know where to get, so he insisted on finding Cui Geng for a drink, because everyone knew why.

"Tell you to turn a corner, how can Deputy Admiral Qi be the narrow-minded person, cheer me up, give me an order later, and give me a hard bang!" Cui Genghun didn't care the way.

The Ming army talked about seniority, but more about background, Cui Geng couldn't do anything about it, but the two of them had a big crime of drinking that night, and when Qi Laosan talked about the deeds of their ancestor Qi Jin, the two became more sympathetic to each other.

Qi Jin used to be an indomitable figure, and he was even more invincible in the army. Qi's third son wanted to become Qi Jin, and Cui Geng was fascinated by it.

"That must be of course, our Jingyuan is the number one in the navy!" Wu Litou, the second officer, said.

"Master Cui, tell me, does our lord really have any relationship with the Zheng family, otherwise why don't we travel thousands of miles to support them." First officer Wu Liuyi said casually.

Liu Hongjian and Zheng Sen were sworn brothers, except for the two, no one else knew. There have been different opinions about the relationship between Liu Hongjian and Zheng Sen in the Beiyang Navy.

"Wu Liuyi! If you dare to talk too much, don't blame the captain's military law. As a general, you follow orders. As the first officer, how dare you talk nonsense!" Cui Geng said angrily.

On weekdays, everyone was laughing and joking, and they were relatively free in their speech, but the words were important, the admiral was the pillar of Daming, and he didn't want his subordinates to speak nonsense.

"Captain, the local fleet has come into view, and the Dingyuan has issued an order. The order is... to charge directly?" Sun Chuan, the gunner of the third-tier ship, asked with doubts.

"Wu Liuyi listened to the order, fired a volley from the port side after entering the firing range, then turned around and rushed towards the Franji fleet.

Second officer, the Musketeers are under your command. When you get close, only the standard bearer and gunner will be used! " Cui Geng said again.

This is a typical Liu Hongjian style of play. Cui Geng naturally understood the meaning of his superiors. Like Holland, the admiral wanted to get close to the enemy and fight at close range.

This can greatly increase the hit rate, but at the same time, the losses of both sides will also increase. This style of play depends on the will and morale of the soldiers on both sides, as well as... the country's financial bearing capacity.

"Decree!" The second officer, Wu Litou put away his cynicism, and trotted to the ammunition compartment after saluting.

Boom-boom-boom-

Without any hesitation, the Beiyang navy opened fire first after the artillery entered the effective range.

Earl Alden, the commander of the Little Franchi Fleet, was horrified. The Beiyang Navy was so sudden that it was detected only when it was within sight. What surprised him even more was that the artillery of the Beiyang Navy was even stronger than their The artillery is farther away.

This is almost comparable to the artillery of Jon's fleet, and of course Alden doesn't know that the Governor of Batavia has gone to God before him.

After a salvo of artillery was fired, most of the shells landed on the surface of the sea. Alden's fleet did not suffer any losses, but his brows frowned even tighter.

Because after a round of volley fire, Daming's navy turned around and charged straight over.

If it was him, after having the advantage of shooting range, he would never continue to approach. This is the behavior of the second fool.

But Ming's navy did just that.

A moment later, the Beiyang navy entered the range of the small Franji fleet, and Earl Alden ordered to fight back without hesitation.

He ordered someone to give orders to Carol and Rosen who were landing on the tidal flat to immediately retreat back to the warship, while keeping a close eye on the approaching Beiyang Navy warship.

Since it has just entered the range of the Franji artillery, similarly, the Franji artillery did not cause any damage to the Beiyang Navy. What effect can a hit rate of less than 5.00% have?

Let's be more violent!

Three minutes later, Fran's warships fired another salvo. This time, Weiyuan and Jingyuan, which bore the brunt of the attack, were hit twice successively, but the steel armor on the battleships was not injured.

Earl Alden frowned even deeper. Like the Dutch, he was also extremely shocked when he encountered the ironclad ship of the Beiyang Navy for the first time.

After half a quarter of an hour, the two fleets were less than a hundred yards apart, and the Beiyang Navy and the small Frangji fleet felt tremendous pressure at the same time.

Liu Hongjian also held up his binoculars to observe the battle situation. Close-range bombardment was his tactic. Da Ming could afford the loss, but his heart was still bleeding.

He may not care about the loss of warships, but the soldiers of the Beiyang Navy are hard-earned, and this is the foundation of the Beiyang Navy.

But there is no way, the Portuguese are just east of Jolo Island, he must make a quick decision, otherwise if the Portuguese come around from the rear at this time, the Beiyang Navy will fall into a passive position.

Boom—boom——

The bombardment continued, and in less than a quarter of an hour, four warships in Alden's fleet were damaged and had to withdraw from the battle. At the same time, two warships of the Beiyang Navy also retreated to the rear.

The Weiyuan was at the forefront, and Qi Laosan jumped up and down on the deck like a grasshopper, directing the gunners to attack.

The steel armor on the front of the Jingyuan was almost completely peeled off, and there were two big holes in the deck, but Qi Yuangong did not ask Qi Yuangong to retreat, and continued to go hand in hand with the Weiyuan and crazily fired at the enemy warship.

Liu Hongjian gritted his teeth and continued to order the fleet to charge.

Come on, let's see whose head is stronger!

All the warships had already delivered grenades. At that distance, the battle would be even more fierce. The Dutch, the big and small Frang robots all had grenades, and Liu Hongjian knew this very well.

"My lord, the enemy fleet is retreating to the northeast!"

Qi Yuangong's urgent voice suddenly came from the intercom.

Big Francophone, are you scared?

……

PS: In the middle of the 17th century, although the Spanish Armada was defeated by the Dutch, it was still very strong in naval strength, which the Portuguese could not compete for.

In fact, the Spaniards have been trying to annex Portugal. On today's map, Portugal's territory is far from Spain.

The reason why the smaller Portugal was called the Big Frangji by Ming, and the larger Spain was called the Little Frangji by Ming, was because the first contact with the Portuguese was the Portuguese.

At that time, Portugal was not yet independent. Daming learned the Portuguese artillery technology and researched and imitated the Frang machine, so the Portuguese were called the big Frang machine, while the Spaniards who came from behind were called the small Frang machine.

PS: Today, I am going to make amends after a dead sheep, and give everyone a new wave of violence
