Chapter 361
If the huge Yuefei is a tiger, then the relatively petite Princess Kunxing is a leopard. The Koreans' fire attack ships and small boats attempt to beat the Yuefei, they also imagine that a group of wolves could beat the tiger to death, but when they met Princess Kunxing, they were a group of sheep unilaterally slaughtered.
With its advantages of fast speed and good flexibility, the Kunxing Princess rushed into the formation of the Korean navy's small sampan and fire attack ship, attacked the fire attack ship with four-pound cannons, and used impact methods to deal with the small sampan, just like a leopard rushing into a flock of sheep, slaughtering North Korean ships unscrupulously.
The loading speed of the four-pound cannon is extremely fast. Each cannon can fire three shells in one minute, and eighteen cannons can cool in turn. The artillery fire on Princess Kunxing did not stop for a minute, just like a fire hedgehog spitting out flames on both sides. The small North Korean sampans sank one after another, and the fire attack ships were hit and caught fire.
Yue Fei bombarded the North Koreans' Clippers and Panya ships with heavy artillery to support the Kunxing Princess; and the Kunxing Princess continued to ignite the North Koreans' fire attack ships and protected the Yue Fei.
"We have many boats, so we should press them all up. As long as we surround them, they will not be able to escape!" Shuosai said.
Park Xingtong knelt on the ground and beat him up: "Zhe! I will obey the order!"
The Koreans immediately dispersed the formation, and the black large and small warships surrounded from all directions, trying to surround the two ships Yue Fei and Princess Kunxing in the middle. Although the ship was fast, as long as the North Korean navy could gather its troops, block the retreat of the two ships, and let a large number of small ships entangle, the ship would be a good tiger to defeat a pack of wolves.
Zheng Sen discovered the intentions of the Goryeo clubs and immediately ordered the bow to be turned to take off. At the same time, he sent a flag-toning signal to Shi Fu: "The club is going to surround us, get out at full speed!"
Yue Fei and Princess Kunxing turned, raised their sails, sailed eastward at full speed, and quickly escaped from the encirclement of the Qing Korean Navy. The two ships were very fast and quickly left the Korean Navy far behind.
Princess Kunxing left at full speed, and the speed of four knots faster than Yuefei left Yuefei behind. Just as Princess Kunxing was evacuating eastward at full speed, a huge fleet appeared on the sea in front. From the Qianli Mile Mile, it can be seen that the fleet was flying the Sun and Moon flags, Zheng flags and yellow flags. It was obvious that the main force of the Ming Navy was coming.
"Our fleet is here, hurry up and meet!" Shi Fu shouted.
Princess Kunxing sailed in the direction of its own fleet at full speed. The Yue Fei, who was landing behind, slowed down a little. At the same time, he slowly turned the bow and crossed the side of the ship. A cannon was extended from the gun door, and the black hole was aimed at the North Korean ship that was catching up with him.
When the Korean Clippers saw the huge "Red and Barbarian Giant Ship" posing for artillery stance, they were so scared that they dared not step forward. After all, this super-large "Red and Barbarian Giant Ship" was too terrible. Clippers like them were all shot and killed in seconds. To deal with such giant ships, they could only attack the ship with fire.
The Clippers slowed down, and the fire attack ship and the small sampan behind accelerated and rushed forward, trying to encircle the Yuefei. But at this moment, the Goryeo sticks on the small sampan and the fire attack ship suddenly discovered that there was a black fleet on the sea in the east, which was not very far away from here, only about ten miles.
The Princess Kunxing turned the bow and turned around and rushed towards the North Korean fleet. At the same time, the fast crab ships of the Zheng Family Navy and the Laiden Navy also rushed out of the main fleet and rushed towards the North Korean Navy's fire attack ship and small sampan.
The Ming Navy's small sampan was also dispatched. The paddlers rowed desperately. The small sampan was galloping at a speed of ten knots, preparing to cooperate with their fast crab boats to launch an attack on the Korean navy fleet.
Princess Kunxing surpassed Yue Fei, took the lead, rushed to the front, and rushed towards the group of sampans of the Korean navy. The cannons on both sides spit out flames, constantly igniting the North Korean fire attack ships.
The Ming Navy's sampan also came up. The Ming army's bird gunners and archers on the small sampan continued to shoot fiercely at the Korean small sampan and fire attack ship, killing the Korean navy's sampan and the sailors on the fire attack ship. A small sampan approached a North Korean fire attack ship, and a rocket roared away and hit the fire attack ship. The fire attack ship immediately ignited a raging fire.
The military relationship between the Ming Navy and the Korean Navy is incompatible: the sampans overcomes fire attack ships, the fire attack ship overcomes large ships, the large ship overcomes the clutch, and the clutch overcomes small sampans. However, the Yuefei and Princess Kunxing are the same as big bosses.
The Yuefei is a big ship. In addition to the fire attack ships that are more afraid of the North Koreans, it can instantly kill all the ships of the North Korean navy. With the same big ship, the Yuefei can easily sink large ships such as the North Korean turtle ships and slab boats, and it is no longer a problem to ravage the North Koreans' fast ships and small sampans.
The Kunxing Princess is an enlarged clutch. Except for the hard pole of the turtle ship that cannot be matched with the North Koreans, it is not inferior to the Koreans' slab boats. It can be said that hunting the North Koreans' sampans and fire attack ships is easy.
Originally, the North Koreans still won with more and adopted the method of encirclement to deal with the two Ming army's two Clippers, but now the Zheng family's Navy and the Laiden Navy have caught up. In terms of quantity, the North Koreans have no advantage, and the numbers of both sides are comparable.
The flagship of the Zheng family army also rushed out, heading side by side with the Yue Fei, and rushed towards the Korean fleet. Although the tonnage of the Zheng family army was only one-third of the tonnage of the Yue Fei, it was equipped with twenty twelve-pound red cannons and eighteen-pound red cannons, second only to the Yue Fei battleship in terms of firepower. According to Western standards, it is a fourth-class frigate.
Although the 18-pound Red Cannon is not as powerful as the 24-pound Red Cannon of Yue Fei, the 18-pound Red Cannon can easily tear open the defense of the North Korean turtle ship.
A battleship and a frigate drove side by side and rushed towards the Korean fleet. With the cooperation of the Kunxing Princess Clippers, the surrounding clutches and sampans attacked the Koreans' fire attack ships and small sampans, and opened the way for two large ships on their side.
"Stretch out the formation, one in front and one behind." Zheng Sen on the Yue Fei gave an order to his flagship.
The Zheng family army's flagship immediately slowed down and followed the Yue Fei, two warships rushed towards the Koreans one by one. Only by one by one by two ships could they better exert their firepower.
"Boom boom boom" Yue Fei opened fire, and a North Korean navy's clutch in front was riddled with holes. Then the Zheng family's flagship also came up, re-gunning the clutch, and a round of shells passed, and the clutch sank in the flames.
A fire attack ship attempted to come up to stop the Yue Fei, but was stopped by four sampans in front of the Yue Fei. The four sampans shot a round of rockets and ignited the fire attack ship. However, the fire attack ship did not stop moving forward, but instead collided towards the Yue Fei in the raging fire.
The soldiers on the Ming army's small sampan fired arrows and fired guns, sweeping away all the Korean sailors on the fire attack ship. However, the fire attack ship that caught fire still rushed towards the Yue Fei under the action of inertia. At this moment, a small sampan rushed up and hit the waist of the fire attack ship. The sailors on the small sampan paddled hard and pushed the fire attack ship away from the original route.
"Boom boom boom" North Korean navy turtle ship and slab boat also opened fire, and whistling shells hit the Ming navy.
