Chapter 1416: Is There Still a So-called Liao State Water Master? (2nd Update)
Chapter 1416
The naval warships of the Great Song Dynasty were still cruising around the periphery of those burning Liao naval divisions, and there would always be a roar from time to time, which was at the request of Ma Kui, the commander of the Jiaodong Navy of the Great Song Dynasty, who was so idle.
Those naval guns were continuing to demonstrate to the generals of the Great Song Dynasty's First Dry Water Division the astonishing range of the Yuan Yu Shenwei cannon, as well as the excellent and accurate hit rate.
Especially after the sky cleared up, a few rounds of chain bullets were fired, which directly broke more than a dozen burning masts, which made a group of naval officers roar excitedly.
The power of the chain bullet weighing dozens of pounds like a double-headed meteor hammer refreshed the three views of these sailors and soldiers, and also made them understand that this kind of strange-shaped cannonball turned out to be so awesome.
And it is also necessary to explain to Na Makui from time to time the characteristics of the various ammunition fired by these naval guns, and if the navy of the Great Song Dynasty really wants to be equipped with this thing in the future, then the navy's warships must be refitted.
For example, naval guns should not be placed above deck, which can easily rust, but need to be placed below deck, and then open the gun ports on the side side, so that the naval guns can be in a safe firing environment, and the gunners can calmly fire without interference.
The sky is getting brighter and brighter, and the raging fire seems to be endless, with the morning light, still burning on the sea, those Liao sailors and fishermen who escaped at sea are standing on the shore, drenched, looking at the flames and tears that are still raging, numb and sluggish.
On the sea, countless fishing boats were already being burned through, burned through, and sunk into the sea, so that the sailors of the Song Kingdom could easily enter the land only a few miles away from the port.
At this time, the two temporary gunboats finally aimed their crosshairs at the soldiers of the Liao State Naval Division who were gathered on the docks.
For the first time, the cannons, equipped with flowering shells, showed their destructive power in front of the eyes of the world, which made the world fearful and awe-inspiring.
The twenty-pound Yuanyu Shenwei cannon and the thirty-pound Yuanyu Shenwei cannon were still firing in turn. However, the soldiers of the Liao Navy on the shore have not yet realized the coming danger.
The first flowering bomb plunged directly into the mud and sand on the coast, a dud, and the second and third bombs crossed the Liao Navy soldiers on the coast.
The fifth, at last, played its role, and it cracked at a distance of about five feet above the heads of these Liao soldiers, and in an instant, the roar echoed in the air.
Ma Kui, who was standing on the battleship, clearly saw from the telescope that the moment the flowering bomb burst open, the soldiers of the Liao State Naval Division, who were several feet in a square circle, were as if they were hit hard by the stealth hammer and were directly knocked to the ground.
Although it was difficult for the artillery to accurately aim at a fixed target because it was fired at sea, six of the twenty guns still exploded near the crowd.

When the casualties caused by the first cannon only made people confused, the raging of one after another flowering shells finally made those Liao Navy soldiers and fishermen scatter like chickens that have blown up their nests.
Some of them jumped back into the water where the fire was still burning, while others ran for their lives.
In the same place, there were at least one or two hundred human bodies, some of them mutilated and lying still, some of them were climbing and struggling, and many places in the beach had been soaked in dark red blood and seeped into the sand......
Seeing this scene, Ma Kui took a deep breath, turned his head, and looked at the ten guns on the battleship he was on, his expression was as gentle and full of exclusivity as if he had seen his beloved wife.
On the day of the Dalian artillery test, when the generals of the naval division went to receive the 20 naval guns, they witnessed the amazing power of the artillery test guns.
It wasn't until today that Ma Kui understood that the general's introduction was not an exaggeration at all, and this naval cannon really made all the long-range weapons on the ship in the past of the Great Song Dynasty only bow down.
The only downside is that it fires at a much slower rate than the ship's crossbow. However, for the sake of its huge power and ultra-long range, Ma Kui felt that such shortcomings were completely negligible.
After the end of the war, when you go back, you must find the Wanda shopkeeper of the Wanhong Trading Company and ask him to transform the battleship of the Jiaodong Naval Division, hmm...... Simply rebuild your own flagship and stuff all these twenty naval guns onto your own flagship.
At that time, the destructive power of his 5,000-material flagship alone will be able to catch up with dozens of warships......
Not...... It's best to hurry up and send a letter to the Dashuai Planter and the Imperial Court, informing him that this kind of naval cannon will be invincible in the United States after being matched with a battleship.
Even in the midst of a stormy weather, when encountering a strong enemy, think that your battleship only needs a beautiful turn, exposing the side side, opening the gun windows one by one, and firing the powerful naval guns one after another, those chain bullets flying sideways, enough to stir up the masts and sails of the enemy ship, and become a pile of broken things that have lost their speed.

The Jiaodong Navy of the Great Song Dynasty has been hovering at the port of Chenzhou, and whenever those Liao Navy officers and soldiers want to get close to the water and rescue those warships that are still alive, the deafening sound of artillery will sound again.
In particular, when several brave Liao sailors were about to approach a burning warship, they were directly cut off by the chain bullet that broke the mast, and the Liao sailors who were broken into two struggled and wailed for more than ten breaths before dying miserably.
No Liao soldier dared to approach the coast again. They all shrank far back into the harbor, standing high above the burning waters, looking at it all in despair and numbness.
In the end, it lasted until it was almost dusk, and the Liao State Naval Division, which was originally all over the entire Chenzhou Port, was left with only a few dozen small warships, and shrank in a bay deep inland, leaving only those broken ship planks on the sea, and the mast that was sunk but still exposed on the sea.
At this time, Ma Kui seemed to be a little unsatisfied and gave the order to withdraw the army.
And at this moment, Xiao Ying, the deputy governor of the Liao State Naval Division, was also sitting in the big tent of the Chinese army in a daze, not only him, but the dozens of sailor generals sitting in the tent, none of them still had a trace of sound on their faces at this time.
At this time, the general who was assigned to count the casualties walked into the Chinese army's tent with a dejected face, and bowed deeply to the deputy governor Xiao.
"Dudu, the wharf has been completely destroyed, my Great Liao Naval Division, more than 500 warships, only 27 warships in the inland river bend remain, of which, there is only one 1,000-material warship, and five 800-material warships, and the rest are small boats of less than 500 materials......"
"Just now, after counting, the missing soldiers of our sailor division are about more than 3,200 people. In addition, it is not known what weapons the Song army used, but the officers and men of the naval division on the shore were killed 56 and wounded 130. ”
"Sailor ......" Xiao should also grin, with an expression like crying and laughing, there are more than five hundred warships, and now there are only twenty-seven ships left, and when they are fully loaded, I am afraid that they will not be able to take a thousand people, can this special one still be called the Great Liao Liao Naval Master?
