Chapter 1805 One shot dead
Although the Great Cannibal had some concerns about the Nanhai Navy of the Tang Dynasty, as soon as the war started, the Great Cannibals did look extremely fierce. Faced with the fierce Tang warships, in order to buy time for their companions, more than twenty wooden warships immediately came up.
The long bow and short crossbow shot towards the deck of the Tang Dynasty warship. Some of the big cannibal warships were even equipped with small catapults and small crossbows. The arrows were shot at the same time, which was quite powerful.
After ordering the fleet to destroy several big cannibal warships, Yuchi Baoqi stopped killing one thousand enemies and hurting himself. After all, although the warships are iron and much stronger than the big cannibal wood ship, this is relatively speaking.
This is like the cars in later generations. The cars are iron. If you throw stones into the car, you may make a pit, but if you use a car to hit something, even if you can drive after the collision, the body will be deformed to a certain extent.
There may be no problem once or twice, but after a few more collisions, you will find that the body strength is not good.
The same is true for warships. It may be fine if you bump occasionally, but if you hit one after another, as for the steel splicing technology of the Tang Dynasty, warships cannot withstand such strong impacts. After a few times, it is estimated that the keel will deform, and the warships will probably be scrapped.
Another point is that the Tang Dynasty warships are driven by propellers. The thing is very fragile. If you keep hitting like this, God knows if something will get stuck on it. If something gets stuck on the propeller, it will be a lot of trouble at that time.
So when we found that the enemy had begun to counterattack, Yuchi Baoqi decisively ordered that all warships should open fire and launch a real attack on the cannibals.
A group of big-headed soldiers had been waiting for a long time. After hearing the order, they immediately rushed out and rushed towards their own positions. Dozens of new cannons lifted their coats, revealing their hideous fangs.
In just a moment, the big cannibal warships had basically rushed to the edge of the steel warship and were thrown onto the warship, making dull sounds.
But the steel warship is an iron warship after all, and the attack of stones and crossbows is no different from tickling it. After being hit, it did not even leave a mark except for a little paint.
The big cannibals who launched the counterattack were stunned in an instant. They never thought that the Tang Dynasty warship was so iron-like! How could steel float on the water? Shouldn’t this thing sink when it sees water?
In fact, in their impression, the Tang Dynasty's ship is big, and the so-called "big" is not a loss. Only with the word "big" can the Tang Dynasty's warships have such strong combat power.
But when the war really happened and when the steel warships really appeared in front of the great cannibals, these great cannibals didn't even have time to react.
"Swish swish swish swish..." Just as the big cannibal was stunned, several figures suddenly appeared on the side of the ship of the Tang Dynasty warship. The figure seemed to be carrying something on its shoulders, but before they could realize anything, the things carried by the figures had already spit out a piece of white smoke.
Then, the hull of the cannibal warship shook slightly, and the shocking explosion accompanied by the rising flames, and a warship stopped.
One ship, two ships... The Tang Dynasty's attack came too suddenly and too unreasonable. There was no strong crossbow shooting or the shouts of killing from the sky. It just shot something silently, and then there was an explosion, and then the ship began to leak water, and the ship began to sink as it leaked.
Why? Why? Why did the iron ships of the Tang people not sink, but their wooden ships became deep? Why?
Countless big cannibals were swallowed by the sea with endless resentment, and more big cannibals floated on the sea because they escaped in time.
"The naval gun is ready and can be fired at any time, General!" As soon as the war started, everyone on the steel warship was so excited that they were extremely excited, and the deputy general's face turned red.
"What are you waiting for? Attack with all your might and send all these big cannibals to the bottom of the sea." Yuchi Baoqi said with eyes as big as a cow.
This guy thought he had come out with the "Sea Wolf" back then, and he had no wealth in naval combat experience. In recent years, the "Sea Wolf" has gone to the Japanese island. He had no interest in land warfare and returned to Chang'an to take care of his old man.
But everyone is young. Seeing others fighting outside, good news spread every day, but I can only hide at home and breastfeed the children and serve my father. If this feeling is not frustrating, it would be strange.
So after knowing that the fight in the South China Sea was started, Yuchi Baoqi was the first to respond to the call. Anyway, his old man had already followed the Emperor to play in the sea, and he had no interest at home. His elder brother was still stationed in Tianzhu and could not come back for a while. So he simply took the task with his old "Nanhai".
You know, now it can be called peace in all the worlds. Whether it is a vassal state or a neighbor, no one dares to stand up and provoke on the land, because they are all afraid of being beaten and destroying people all over the country at any time, so that everyone is cautious in maintaining relationships with the Tang Dynasty, for fear of arousing dissatisfaction from the Tang Dynasty.
So although the generals stationed abroad in the Tang Dynasty were so sluggish, they actually counted their legs and hair every day after they went back.
This time, I finally met a second-hand man who dared to challenge the Tang Dynasty. Chang'an City was almost quarreling, just to compete for this leading position. It can be said that Yuchi Baoqi can come here because she got the opportunity to break through the siege.
The deputy general ordered to leave, but it was not long. Several new turrets on the bow and stern of the ship began to move, and the muzzle turned to load. The gunner stood on the cannon with a sledgehammer and rushed to the cannon position, with a 'clang'.
"Boom..." The giant cannon made a series of roars, trembling so hard that people's livers were trembling, but it was so good!
Looking at the big cannibal warships that were still taking the opportunity to scatter around, they paused with the series of roars, and then they saw countless splashes of water blowing between the other warships, three of which were more unlucky, were directly blown into broken wood all over the sky.
The great cannibal is fierce, but no matter how strong it is, there is a limit. As long as a person is not stupid, he will not use his head to hit the iron.
It may be said that these big cannibals dare to rush up when facing galloping horses and elephants, but when you face a shot, you can send hundreds of people to heaven, and you will be impressed and can't bite them, and you can't even see them, what can you do if they are tough?
