Chapter 278
Zheng Zhilong's fleet was not crowded together, it was divided into three parts, the front, the middle and the back, slowly approaching Tianjin.

There are not many ships at the front, and the further back, the more ships there are.

The front suffered a severe blow, and suddenly, Zheng Zhilong's fleet stopped suddenly, like a speeding car crashing into a wall.

Under the fierce artillery fire, the ships of the former army were gradually destroyed and wiped out.

Although many shells fell into the water, many shells still fell on the ship.

There is no way for these wooden ships to be low-grade at all. They were either paralyzed on the surface of the sea or sank to the bottom of the water.

For a moment, Zheng Zhilong's vanguard fleet was crowded there like headless chickens.

Zheng Zhilong is located in front of the Chinese army. In his Chinese army, there are almost 200 warships, including more than 50 large ships with thousands of materials.

He divided the thousands of material ships in his hands into three square formations, and placed them in the front, middle and rear square formations respectively.

There were twenty thousand-material ships in the former army, but now these twenty thousand-material ships are like elephants stuck in a swamp, unable to move forward or retreat.

Floating boards and corpses were everywhere on the sea, and the smell of gunpowder smoke in the air became heavier and heavier.

Zheng Zhilong's heart was bleeding when he looked at the big ship ahead that couldn't retreat.

The thousand material ship is his elite, his root.

As long as the Qianliao ship is still there, Zheng Zhilong can pull out a powerful army at any time.

If the big ship with thousands of materials is gone, then he, Zheng Zhilong, will be a lost dog.

"Sun thief, you bastard, you bastard!" Zheng Zhilong cursed, furious.

But he didn't have any countermeasures other than yelling.

Sun Jie saw the situation on the sea clearly through the drone.

He turned around, looked at Lu Xiangsheng behind him, and said: "Let the coastal defense guns focus on bombing the enemy ships in front, the shells are not very lethal on the sea surface, and the effect will continue to decline if they hit far away!
At the same time, let the two warships Chang'an and Fuping get ready to attack at any time! "

"Your Majesty, do you really want to let these two warships attack? Although Zheng Zhilong was hit by our army's artillery and was powerless to parry, he only knocked out his vanguard, and the ships behind him were basically not affected too much. Is it dangerous to attack rashly with a big loss?!"

Lu Xiangsheng said with a worried face.

"If you want to become an army quickly, you must accept the baptism of blood. If you can't really go to the battlefield, it's just talking on paper and you will never succeed!
Besides, Zheng Zhilong is afraid of being beaten by us now, he has almost lost his courage, so there is nothing to worry about! "Sun Jie said.

Lu Xiangsheng didn't say anything more, and quickly passed on Sun Jie's order.

The artillery on the turret aimed at the ship closest to the port.

The density of the shells increased all of a sudden, and the continuous bombing continued to blow up those ships that could not retreat.

Looking at the sinking ships one after another, Zheng Zhilong's heart was bleeding.

The strength accumulated after so many years in the sea is now easily destroyed by Sun Jie.

If it is a direct confrontation, Zheng Zhilong can still accept it.

But now he was completely passively beaten, without even the ability to resist, like a big fat pig tied up with five flowers, letting the butcher's knife go into his neck.

This feeling is more uncomfortable than cutting the liver and gouging out the heart.

"Where did you get so many such terrifying weapons? Where did you get these weapons?" Zheng Zhilong pointed at the port, his face full of disbelief and horror.

The shells were like an iron curtain, covering the sea area in front of the port.

Although there are some cannons on their big ships, the range of these cannons is too short, even if they are pulled out at this distance, it will not help.

In addition, the size of the port is so large, it doesn't matter if it takes a few shots.

Ships were wiped out under the attack of the port artillery. Even if some ships broke through the firepower and rushed to the front of the port, those waiting for them were shot by machine guns.
Corpses, sawdust, flames, and black smoke enveloped the front.

Zheng Zhilong's heart was twisted like a knife, like a wooden chicken, he leaned against the ship's side blankly, his chest was heaving and breathing, he was panting heavily, on the verge of collapse.

Never thought that naval battles could be fought like this, Sun Jie's style of play really refreshed his understanding of naval battles.

He didn't even touch the corner of the enemy's clothes, and he was beaten without any rules.

If it goes on like this, it will undoubtedly fail.

I also encountered their shelling when I was fighting with Hongyi before, but compared with the current bombardment of Hongyi, it was just tickling.

Zheng Zhilong looked at the port with fierce firepower, and said with a livid face: "I finally figured it out, this is a series of tricks, they want to swallow us directly.

I just said, how come it's so easy and I didn't encounter anything all the way, so that's the idea.

What a cruel heart, this grandson thief is really hateful! "

"Brother, what should we do?" Zheng Zhihu looked at Zheng Zhilong with anxiety on his face.

Zheng Zhilong gritted his teeth, "I haven't seen anything since I've been traveling across the ocean for so many years? I haven't experienced any strong winds and waves. I don't believe it, and I still can't take it off."

A look of madness gradually appeared on Zheng Zhilong's face, he turned his head, looked at Zheng Zhihu, and shouted loudly: "Let all the ships in the rear detour, and let all the rear and rear troops of the Chinese army detour up and attack the port in front with all their strength.

As long as we can get close to the port, once our people go up, then we can succeed.If we get these powerful weapons into our hands, who else in the world will be our opponent?
Rush up, kill, kill! ! ! "

Zheng Zhilong went crazy, dancing on the deck like a psychopath.

He has now put all his eggs in one basket, and wants to rely on this method to launch the final blow.

He knew very well in his heart that even if he fled back at this time, he might not be able to escape safely.

The artillery on the port is so powerful, turning around and running away at this time is to expose the back, and the death will only be worse.

Even if he could escape back, his strength would have been greatly damaged. Hong Yi on the Java side would not let go of this good opportunity.

Now I can only rush over and fight to the death.

"Now these ships are holding their breath and rushing forward. What should we do if we really can't make it? We should keep some ships!" Zheng Zhihu hurriedly shouted at Zheng Zhilong.

But now Zheng Zhilong has fallen into madness, how can he listen to Zheng Zhihu's words?

"Shut up and do everything as I say, are you going to disobey my order?" Zheng Zhilong's eyes flashed fiercely, and he stared at Zheng Zhihu threateningly.

Zheng Zhihu looked at Zheng Zhilong who couldn't listen, and heaved a long sigh helplessly, so he had to pass on Zheng Zhilong's order.

The sky seemed to be helping Zheng Zhilong, when the wind suddenly blew up, Zheng Zhilong's fleet was speeding up with the wind, and the distance between the ship and the port was getting closer and closer.

However, is this a good thing?
Zheng Zhilong held up his binoculars and kept an eye on the battle situation around him.

After feeling the wind blowing, he hurriedly shouted to Zheng Zhihu who was standing behind him: "Let the Chinese army lower their sails, slow down, and wait for the rear army to come up, and then attack together. The wind is very strong now, it's too late How long will the rear army be able to come up!"

Zheng Zhihu looked at the desperate Zheng Zhilong, and really didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only pass on his order.

The fleet of the rear army was under the wind, and the speed was very fast. They bypassed the central army and came to the side of the central army, almost going hand in hand with the central army.

The most worrying thing still happened, because the rear army was too hasty and the ships were too dense, the ships of the rear army and the middle army collided together.

For a while, tooth-piercing voices came and went.

"My lord, I think this Zheng Zhilong wants to gather superior forces and launch an attack on us."

Lu Xiangsheng looked at the scene on the big screen, frowned and said.

"It is true, but after all, Zheng Zhilong is not an idler, you can see that the speed of his formation change is simply beyond imagination.

Sure enough, a person who can make a name for himself on the sea does have some skills! "

Sun Jie keenly noticed these things from inside.

Seeing the crowded boats, Zheng Zhilong slammed his fist on the side of the boat.

"What are they doing? They can't do such a trivial thing well, and they can still collide together. It's abominable!"

Zheng Zhilong cursed loudly.

Although it lost a lot, the rear army finally replenished and went hand in hand with the central army.

At this time, hundreds of warships had already set up their offensive formation.

Presenting a fan shape, approaching Tianjin Port.

Jiang is still old and spicy. After being attacked suddenly, it is not easy to make corresponding countermeasures in time.

The soldiers on the two warships Chang'an and Fuping also kept this scene firmly in their hearts.

Actual combat is always the best way to improve combat effectiveness.

"Order, Chang'an and Fuping are approaching, ready to chase down the rout!" Sun Jie looked away from the big screen and looked at Lu Xiangsheng behind him.

The reason why Sun Jie gave such an order was because he was fully sure that Zheng Zhilong's fleet could be completely defeated this time.

The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and Zheng Zhilong's fleet is getting faster and faster.

The closer to the battlefield, the more planks and corpses floating on the sea.

Zheng Zhilong doesn't care about these things at all, how can there be undead in a war?

As long as the strategic goal can be achieved, dead people are not unacceptable.

As the distance approached, Zheng Zhilong finally saw clearly the two warships Chang'an and Fuping.

Holding up the binoculars, panic appeared on his face, and he saw the Chang'an and Fuping.

"This, this, this, is this a ship made of steel? Is this a ship made of steel?"

Zheng Zhilong's body was a little stiff, and his tone was full of panic.

Growing up so big, he had never seen a ship made of steel.

If this kind of ship hits, the price will be immeasurable.

A gust of sea breeze blew by, mixed with the smell of blood and burnt, making Zheng Zhilong's people nauseated.

Zheng Zhilong was closer to the port, and closer to the two steel warships.

The timing was just right, and Sun Jie gave the order to fire with all his strength.

All of a sudden, the cannons rained down on Zheng Zhilong like a torrential downpour.

Just now, Zheng Zhilong was just watching the battle from behind. Although some shells would fall nearby, they were just fish that slipped through the net. There were only a few sporadic ones, and the damage caused was really limited.

Now, he is facing a full-scale bombardment of shells.

The rumbling explosion made Zheng Zhilong unable to lift his head up. Almost all the people under his command lay prone on the deck, how dare he fight back?

The artillery fire continued to wash the sea surface, and these wooden warships suffered heavy losses under the coverage of the artillery fire.

The forward momentum of Zheng Zhilong's fleet was abruptly stopped by the bomb, unable to move forward.

Some people who were greedy for life and afraid of death even turned around and fled backwards, crowded with the ships behind, creating chaos.

Amidst the intensive bombardment, the warship Chang'an fired at full power and rushed towards Zheng Zhilong's fleet.

Like an arrow leaving the string, the speed is extremely fast.

Zheng Zhilong crouched under the ship's side, raised his head and took a look, and saw a huge steel monster rushing towards this side with its bloody mouth open.

Surrounded by gunfire and black smoke, against the backdrop of broken wooden boards, it looks like an unattainable mountain.

His face was pale with fright.

"crunch, crunch!"

Under Zheng Zhilong's watchful eyes, the warship Chang'an collided with a lucky boat. The strong collision force coupled with the steel hull of the Chang'an directly disintegrated the lucky boat.

The sailors on the blessing boat jumped into the sea in panic.

But when the Chang'an sailed over, the vortex generated directly dragged them into the water.

"Brother, let's run, we are obviously no match for these people, we can't beat them."

At this moment, Zheng Zhihu was finally afraid, terrifying weapons, giant steel ships, one of the two can dominate the ocean, let alone these two are owned by the same force?

The innocence has changed, and the era belonging to the Zheng family has finally come to an end.

Zheng Zhilong, who recovered from his panic, screamed at Zheng Zhihu madly: "I have not failed, I will not fail. Back then I started from scratch and worked hard to build such a big foundation. Today, such a little difficulty wants to stop me? impossible.

Give me the order, and the fleet in front will rush up for me, rush for me.

And the fleet behind, let them speed up for me, and let me rush up, I will take care of the port of Tianjin. "

"Keep pressing on me until they surrender. If they don't surrender, keep pressing me. If anyone dares to resist, just serve them with weapons."

In the command room, Sun Jie watched the ships being crushed by the Chang'an, and shouted without changing his expression.

There were constant sounds of wood breaking on the sea, mixed with the panicked shouts of pirates.

Zheng Zhilong looked at the crushed ships in front of him and these sounds, his heart was ashamed, his heart was twisted like a knife, and all thoughts were lost!
