Shi Chong was not swayed by the temporary victory.
He was the captain, and there were a huge number of enemy warships in front of the Shiwansui.
He knew that the subsequent fight would be even more brutal.
The Swansui then charged eastward.
The artillery on both wings kept roaring and damaged another gunboat.
It had no choice but to get too close to the Swansui.
It was simply the most welcome short-range bombardment of Tiago's can opener. , it is much harder to miss at such a close distance than to hit.
Bang bang, the Swansea bravely crashed the bow of a fire ship and almost completely destroyed it, while it continued to rush towards the east.
Looking at the rampaging Polu warship in front of him, Chen Hui was filled with hatred.
In a short period of time, this Xiyi warship had destroyed several Zheng family warships.
It was like entering an uninhabited land, and he must not let it.
Continue to be rampant.
Chen Hui ordered several nearby gunboats to surround and annihilate this warship.
Even if they let go of several nearby warships, they must also annihilate this Mingren warship.
The three ships rushed towards the Swansea from the front, left, front and right.
Of course they were not stupid.
The side firepower of the Polu warships was too powerful.
To approach from the side was to seek abuse.
Shi Chong had already seen the three warships dozens of steps ahead, but he could not avoid them.
If he turned around and turned sideways, the broadside artillery might only have one chance to fire, and the three warships would collide with each other.
Then Long live Shi.
There is a danger of capsizing.
Shi Chong's decision was to go up to them, and at worst it would just be a boarding battle.
Both sides rushed toward each other full of hatred and fighting intent.
The blue water next to the Swansui was pressed up with large sprays of water and white droplets, and the Swansui slid towards the three Zheng family warships with the force of the wind.
Shi Chong saw the sea in front of the battleship getting narrower and narrower, "Avoid the guns, avoid the guns."
Boom, the Swansui's bow gun fired the final blow, and then all the gunners withdrew.
This shot hit the bow of the battleship directly in front, and a large hole appeared in the bow, causing the battleship to stagger and slow down somewhat.
Boom boom boom, the bow cannons of the two Zheng family gunboats also fired.
Their bow cannons were more powerful, but their warships were positioned lower and could not directly bombard the deck.
Their projectiles all hit Shi Wansui's The cabin in the lower part of the bow.
This was where the water troughs and provisions were placed.
Because they were too close, three nine-pounder projectiles shattered the ship's planks and penetrated into the hull, destroying almost all of several cabins.
"It's hit the ship, caught."
The first mate and the boatswain shouted loudly.
There were two loud bangs, and the Swansea bumped violently.
Almost everyone fell to the ground.
The impact was too violent, and then there was another loud bang.
Another Zheng family gunboat collided with it, and the Shiwansui shook violently again.
At this time, the sailors of the two Zheng family gunboats that were the first to hit began to shout and rush to the side of the ship.
They used iron hooks to hook the fender of the Swansui's bow.
On the other hand, the sailors of the Swansea experienced two major impacts and fell down twice before they could get up completely.
All the more than fifty armored men lined up, with iron shields in front of them.
The gunmen had already been loaded and immediately started bombarding the sailors of a Zheng family gunboat.
Bang bang bang, large plumes of smoke rose from the small military formation.

The Zheng family gunboat on the far right was busy hooking the side of the ship.
Nearly half of the Zheng family sailors connected with ropes immediately fell to death.
They howled as they fell into the sea or rolled about on the deck.
Bang bang bang, the soldiers of the Zheng family on the three warships also fought back with firecrackers.
Although they were protected by iron shields, such a close blow caused the iron shields to tilt.
The projectiles behind them still penetrated into the battle formation, and the five armored men fell down. on deck.
The firecrackers of the Polu army retreated to reload, while the firecrackers on the three warships of the Zheng family immediately threw away their firecrackers and began to climb the Shiwansui together with other soldiers.
The Shi Wansui warship is larger, but its center of gravity is low and flat, while the two ends of the Fu ship are pointed.
The Zheng family warship is more than a foot lower than the Shi Wansui warship.
These Zheng family soldiers jumped onto the Shi Wansui warship with just a hand on the side of the ship.
Long live the bow.
The armor of the Polu army did not go to the bow of the ship to intercept.
The place that was too narrow was not conducive to the performance of their military formation.
At the same time, being too forward would attract the enemy's muskets and crossbows.
Because the Zheng family's sailors have to rely on gangs to fight, they cannot wear heavy armor.
Some of them are even shirtless.
The weapons in their hands include long knives, iron shields, spears, and harpoons.
It's not that the Zheng family is not worthy of unified soldiers.
A, but these sailors from Yeluzi are used to their own affairs.
If they don't get along well with others, the Zheng family has nothing to do.
These sailors roared and rushed forward.
In the past ten years, they had fought countless bloody battles with the Dutch, Liu Xiang, Li, Xing Bin and other large groups of enemies.
Although they had gone through many times, the final winner was the Zheng family, and so were the sailors of the Zheng family.
What they are most proud of is that they don’t talk about artillery battles, but just rely on gangs to fight bloody battles.
They claim to be second, and no one dares to claim to be first.
In addition, they now rule the entire coast of Fujian.
They are indeed arrogant and scornful of the Polu army arrayed neatly in front of them.
This appearance is really in line with the Ming Dynasty official army.
Once engaged in battle and bloodshed, they will quickly collapse.
But this time their experience was of no use.
As soon as Fang fought, the Zheng family sailors in front were frequently assassinated by spears behind the iron shields.
Of course, the navy's spear is not the spear of the army.
It is only as long as the spear of the army, but it is also a proper long weapon, and the armor is neatly pierced.
The sailors of the Zheng family paid a bloody price in a fight.
More than a dozen sailors fell to the ground screaming, but they only injured the armor of two Polu soldiers.
The Zheng family sailors in the back performed "I don't believe in evil", and they continued to charge madly, hoping that the ferocious momentum could shake the fighting spirit of the Polu army.
Indeed, nearly a hundred opponents with weapons in their hands roaring and charging can indeed generate great pressure, which makes People have no idea whether they can win in the end.
However, the battle-hardened Polu troops were unmoved by their armor.
Under the orders of their armor commanders, they mechanically swung their spears and stabbed all approaching opponents to the ground.
More than twenty sailors fell to the ground and struggled for their lives, and there were screams and screams everywhere on the deck.
At this time, the gunmen fired at the enemy from the gap again, killing nearly ten Zheng family sailors, while the Polu army only paid the price of five or six casualties, and the soldiers behind them took up the place of the casualties.
All this finally allowed the fanatical sailors of the Zheng family to finally cool down.
Damn, these Ming troops are too tough.
They finally stopped being arrogant and arrogant, and began to try to find the weaknesses of the Polu Army's small army.
After the Zheng family navy calmed down, it was the Polu army's turn to feel uncomfortable.

The Zheng family navy's warships did not have many artillery guns, but there were many sailors preparing for the broadside battle.
The three warships combined have more than 200 people, less than 300 people.
This is several times the armor of the Polu army.
The warships of the Polu Navy were mainly engaged in artillery warfare, with gunners accounting for the majority.
Therefore, the number of armored ships was limited, which put them at a disadvantage.
The Zheng family sailors who came up from behind were not in a hurry to attack, and took advantage of their numerical advantage to surround them from three sides.
Then they began to besiege from three sides, which gave the armor on the Swansui a huge headache.
After all, the number of people was limited.
Earlier, they could only defend one side, but now they were facing enemies on three sides.
Although there is only one side where there are less than ten enemies due to the limited space on the deck, you have to be on guard.
This is to restrain manpower.
This time, the sailors of the Zheng family began to attack both sides under the order from the bow of the ship.
This time the bloody battle between the two sides became fierce.
Soon, nearly half of the armored soldiers of the Polu army were killed and wounded, and they also cost the enemy sixty or seventy people.
There were only more than a hundred enemies left, but there were only about twenty armored men on the Shi Wansui.
At this time, the military formation almost ceased to exist, and even Shi Chong drew his long sword to fight.
Seeing that the entire army was about to be annihilated, the gunners in the lower cabin took out their swords, spears, and muskets from the armory and swarmed in to help.
Immediately, there was no military formation or organization on the deck.
They were just fighting against each other.
At most, a group of two or three people gathered together to fight the enemy.
The sounds of battles between soldiers and armor on the deck, the cries of the casualties, and the shouts of fierce fighting could be heard everywhere.
The number of people on both sides who could still stand was greatly reduced.
At this time, more than twenty sailors from the Polu Army also joined in.
At this time, any navigation was nonsense.
If the ship was not saved, what else would be of use?
In any case, under the wave after wave of reinforcements from the sailor gunners of the Swansui, the Polu soldiers on the Swansui finally killed all the enemies, but there were only less than twenty Polu soldiers left on the Swansui. people.
The entire deck was a sea of blood and corpses.
The deck was soaked with blood.
The entire Swansea was filled with the smell of blood, which made people sick to smell it.
The remaining Polu soldiers stood supporting each other, none of them was intact.
Shi Chong's right arm was cut with a large gash.
The armor was opened, and the skin and flesh inside were rolled up, and blood was still flowing.
With a bang, the remaining soldiers of the Polu Army fell to the ground.
A Zheng family gunboat hit the stern of the Swansui, and the Swansui was shaken.
Zheng Qiu led more than a hundred Zheng family soldiers to board the Shiwansui aggressively.
When they passed the back deck, they killed a dozen resisting Polu sailors.
Shi Chong and others helped each other to stand up, facing the menacing enemy.
As Zheng Qiu moved forward, he directed his men to go to the lower deck and control the artillery.
Akito's heavy artillery was what they wanted most, and they had been coveting it for a long time.
Zheng Qiu covered his mouth and nose and led the soldiers to Shi Chong and others.
He looked at the soldiers of the Polu army who were unsteady in front of him.
"Put down your weapons and surrender.
I will spare you the chance to die."
Zheng Qiu looked like he was giving alms, shouting in his Fujian Mandarin, with an extremely impatient expression.
To be honest, if the Zheng family was not extremely concerned about Zhao Lie's troops and did not understand the sudden and mysterious appearance of this army, Zheng Zhilong told them to get some alive.

These Polu army soldiers would have killed so many people.
Zheng family soldiers, Zheng Qiu chopped into pieces, these people have their thoughts.
"You're fucking dreaming."
Shi Chong laughed wildly, glanced at Zheng Qiu contemptuously, and then shouted to the soldiers, "Brothers, we have not embarrassed the Polu army.
We are worthy of being the iron army that defeated the Japanese pirates." , let’s go on the road together.”
"Let's go on the road together."
The other brothers also echoed.
They couldn't say they shouted in unison, but they were very determined.
Mr.
Zhao had taken care of everything behind him, and they could trust him.
Zheng Qiu was speechless.
He was so shameless.
This man really couldn't blame him.
"Come here, behead them all in public."
The soldiers under his command swarmed up, while Shi Chong and others looked at Zheng Qiu and others with gloating, which made Zheng Qiu and others both angry and inexplicable.
Boom boom, violent explosions broke out from the lower deck, and the entire upper deck suffered Unable to withstand such a huge impact, the whole thing collapsed.
Zheng Qiu didn't understand the expressions of these soldiers until he fell into the sea of fire.
It was a pity that they could die together
