Chapter 933: Capture the Thief and Capture the King First (1)

It's just that the current Imperial Sailors are in full speed ahead, so why aren't the Fujian Sailors in full speed?

The distance between the two sides is only twenty miles, once it enters within eight miles, then it can be opened fire, maybe the distance is too far, the threat to the naval division is not great, but once the battle is engaged, it means that it is not so easy to get rid of the opponent, and can only start a decisive battle with the opponent in the open sea, and the current imperial naval division has no chance of winning!

The Fujian Navy Division is getting closer and closer, and the deputy chief soldier Ke Zhenlong said urgently: "My lord, it can't go on like this, once the Fujian Navy Division catches up, let's rush into battle, regardless of victory or defeat, once the warship loaded with munitions is hit, then it will only sink into the sea, no one can catch it, it doesn't matter if the Fujian Navy Division can't grab it, after all, this is not their thing, but the court can't lose these arms, the emperor is still waiting for this batch of munitions to save it!" ”

Zheng Haotian was shocked, Ke Zhenlong was right, once the two sides killed at sea, it would be difficult for this batch of arms to reach Nanjing safely, and now he can't afford to take such a big risk!

"The order is to order Zhang Jun to lead the warships carrying the munitions to break away from the sailors first, and advance at full speed in the direction of Songjiang Mansion, and make sure that the munitions arrive in Songjiang Mansion safely! All the rest of the warships stopped moving forward and prepared to fight head-on, grandma's, this time, Lao Tzu and Fujian sailors are going to break the net! ”

Zhang Jun received an order to command more than a dozen warships to run all the way to the northwest, Zheng Haotian and Ke Zhenlong turned around, and the entire fleet lined up, waiting for them on the sea!

However, at this time, Zheng Haotian and Ke Zhenlong saw it very clearly, there were a lot of warships, I am afraid that Zheng Zhilong sent all his warships, right? A few miles away, there are at least two hundred warships, large and small! I have to say that this Zheng Zhilong's power on the sea is really outstanding, so many warships have been sent out in a single pursuit, and the number alone is twice that of the Imperial Sailors! This battle is really unpredictable.

If it had been left in the past, Zheng Haotian would have been too frightened to fight, and fled directly, the number of warships of the Imperial Navy Division was far inferior to that of the Fujian Navy Division, how to fight? It's not good that is the end of the annihilation of the whole army, but now, Zheng Haotian has no way to retreat, one is that Zhang Jun has just led more than a dozen warships carrying arms to retreat, and he must be like a nail, nailed here, and second, although the number of warships of the current imperial sailors is far inferior to that of the Fujian sailors, even the quality of the warships is slightly inferior, but the firepower of the imperial sailors is fierce, red-clothed artillery, flowering cannons, plus rockets, it can be said that in more than a year, Zhu Jie directly loaded the weak imperial sailors with minions, Even if the tiger of the Imperial Sailor is old, this sharp claw can still kill people!

"Zhenlong, how do you say we will fight this battle?"

Zheng Haotian asked in a deep voice.

Ke Zhenlong gritted his teeth and replied: "My lord, now, we can only let it go, either the fish dies or the net is broken, fire with all our might, fight with them, our warship is old, their firepower is not good, even if we are defeated, we must break his mouth full of teeth!" ”

Zheng Haotian said angrily: "Nonsense, this imperial sailor is the last bit of money in the imperial court, so it is so bad, can we afford the emperor's trust?" ”

Ke Zhenlong's face turned bitter and asked, "Then what should I do?" Now Zhang Jun is leading more than ten ships, but they haven't even run out for six miles, so we have no way to retreat, we can only go around with all our might......"

"It's not easy to say, and it's not necessarily that hard to say!"

Zheng Haotian said ruthlessly: "Now it's time for us to gamble, if we succeed, let's become famous in a fight, and if we lose, then we can't afford to say anything, we can only break the net!" The so-called shoots the man first and shoots the horse first, and the thief captures the king first, see if the handsome ship of the Fujian Navy Division is there? It is the most highest, it seems that there are no less than 2,000 materials, nearly twice the size of our main battleship, it must be the command hub of the Fujian Naval Division, we want to turn defeat into victory and turn the tide of the war, so it all falls on it! The order is that the two main warships of the Chinese army and the two main warships of the forward battalion should let go of all other opponents, concentrate all the firepower, especially the artillery and rockets, aim at their handsome ships, throw the shells and rockets, and throw them all over, in the shortest possible time, the handsome ships of the Fujian Navy Division must be sunk, at least let him no longer command the battle, and the two main warships around him are also within our strike range, once the enemy head is successfully annihilated, then the Fujian Navy Division is a fly on the brow, At least we will be invincible and can get out of it all! ”

"My lord, Gao Ming, that's it, the last general will give the order!"

Ke Zhenlong was extremely excited, at this time, he could only let go, and really sank their handsome ship, and the imperial sailors would make money!

Soon, the two naval divisions were already less than eight miles apart, Zheng Haotian gave an order, the entire fleet began to turn the bow of the ship, and launched a counterattack towards the Fujian Naval Division, especially the four main battleships mobilized, all of which were the latest main battleships purchased from the Fujian Naval Division and the Nanyang people, and they were the most powerful battleships of the Imperial Naval Division.

"I'll rub!"

Tagawa Nanazaemon was stunned for a while, he didn't expect that this imperial sailor really had the courage, at this time, he even dared to launch a counterattack against his Fujian sailor, this is your own death! In that case, don't any of you flee this sea!

"Uncle!"

Tagawa Nanazaemon shouted urgently.

Zheng Zhibao's face was full of coldness, and he shouted: "Order, the whole army will attack, we must solve this fleet in the shortest possible time and chase it with all our might!" ”

However, before the warships of the Fujian Navy Division could open fire, the Imperial Navy Division struck first, and the four warships advanced at full speed, not caring about their own safety at all, at this time, the two fleets were moving in the opposite direction, and the distance was less than five miles, and all the artillery on the four battleships was enough to cover the Fujian Navy Division!

Boom Boom!

At the sound of an order, the four battleships opened fire with all their might, eight 5,000-pound heavy guns, 16 2,000-pound small-caliber guns, and 30 Franc machine guns all fired, and dozens of shells went straight to the handsome ship of the Fujian Navy Division!

"Not good!"

Zheng Zhibao's face changed greatly, in fact, the four warships rushed up like this, Zheng Zhibao already felt that something was faintly wrong, when all the artillery fire was fully fired, and launched an attack on the handsome ship, Zheng Zhibao was anxious when he landed, this was completely in line with his own handsome ship! Dozens of shells whistled in, and if all of them fell on the handsome ship, the handsome ship would be ruined!

"Quick, quick, dodge shelling with all your might, fire, return fire!"
