In the northern channel, the Fort Reshalan on the body of a kun could not be covered by artillery, and the battleships of Donghai Town, two rounds of shelling, destroyed the Dutch camp on the tail island of the northern line, and then took advantage of the high tide to pour into the port.Inside the harbor, there were twenty Dutch ships, three of which were warships, and the rest were armed merchant ships, which were weaker than the fleet in Tokai Town.Feelberg hurriedly led the Dutch navy to the northeast, and outside the exit of the North Passage, lined up in a horizontal formation, and aimed the side guns at the East Sea Town fleet that rushed into the inner harbor.
“hets！”
Feelberg roared loudly.On the sea, 20 Dutch warships and armed merchant ships, lined up in a single horizontal formation, with nearly 300 guns on the side, opened fire one after another.For a time, the roaring sound of artillery continued, clouds of white smoke rose up, iron bullets whistled out of the smoke, and hundreds of shells flew against the sea, and the scene was magnificent and magnificent.The first few lucky ships to rush out were subjected to the concentrated fire of the Dutch warships, and suddenly one of the lucky ships was directly smashed by cannonballs and torn to pieces.On Fort Reshalan, Taiwan's Governor Firth saw this and waved his fist excitedly, "Fight well, sink Zhao's flagship!"
”Zhao Ming stood on the Zhenhai, the water column splashed around the battleship, and the sail was hit by Dutch artillery, tearing a large hole."
Turn north and turn the ship around!"
Zhao Ming ordered in a deep voice.At this time, the Dutchman's guns sticking out of the cannon window, after being sprayed, one after another, retreated.The Dutch on the deck hurriedly reloaded, and then pushed the heavy guns back to the gun position, and the pitch-black gun muzzle once again stretched out of the gun window and aimed at the battleship of Donghai Town, which was rushing out.At this moment, the tide came, and the water level in the harbor rose sharply by more than a zhang, and the huge waves caused the Dutch warships to rise and fall with the waves, and the formation was suddenly confused by the tide.At this time, the battleships of Donghai Town were divided into two groups, and the Fu ships took advantage of the tide to rush forward, and at the same time the bow guns roared, while the ten Ming gunboats, after gushing out of the channel exit, sailed along the southern end of the northern line of Tail Island, turned their hulls, and also lined up in a horizontal formation, aiming the side guns at the Dutch warships."
Boom, boom!"
The sailors on the Dutch battleship controlled the sails to stabilize the hull, and the gunners immediately lit the fuse and fired another cannon bombardment.Zhao Ming suddenly roared loudly, "Use the flowering bomb and fire the cannon to counterattack!"
”"Boom, boom!"
The gunboat's broadside guns retreated sharply, spewing out cannon flames in turn, raising white smoke.At this time, the ten gunboats, almost in two parallel straight lines with the Dutch warships, both sides had their side gun windows open, and the guns roared and retreated.With the shelling of each ship, the hull of the ship shook slightly, and the gunpowder smoke on the side formed two almost parallel smoke bands, and then slowly rose, like clouds in the sky, falling on the sea.The sea surface is intertwined with bullets and rains, the Dutch have been crisscrossing the sea for many years, as the overlord of the sea, the gunners have operated sharply, experienced a hundred battles, and fired cannonballs, which hit extremely high, and the side of a gunboat was directly penetrated by the cannonballs, leaving a large hole in the side of the ship, and the mast of another gunboat was hit by iron bullets, and the towering mast broke with a "click", shook a few times with a "creak", and suddenly fell to the bow, and the soldiers on the deck could not dodge, and the entire bow and the soldiers on the deck were covered by white canvas.At this time, the cannonballs fired by Donghai Town also hit the Dutch.There was a loud "boom", and a flowering bomb suddenly exploded at the moment when it pierced the side of the ship, and the Dutch soldiers on the side of the ship suddenly flew upside down and crashed into the side of the ship on the other side, and the air waves and debris generated by the explosion swept across a deck with debris and ignited the sails.The solid bullet hit the Dutch battleship, the shell pierced the hull, causing a large hole, for the Dutch soldiers in the hull and the decks of each layer, the damage was actually very limited, only by the solid bullet hit, it would be killed, and the flowering shell was terrifying, the shell shot into the hull, exploded inside the battleship, and immediately tore the hull to pieces.For a time, the Dutch warship that was hit exploded again and again, and the flames of the explosion ignited the powder keg inside the battleship, and the entire battleship immediately exploded from the middle in an earth-shattering loud noise, the top deck was lifted off, the mainmast was also blown into the sea, and the hull was blazing, and the Dutch, who were not killed, jumped into the sea from the inclined battleship deck in panic.On the Dutch flagship, the fleet commander Felberg was stunned, his face full of disbelief, what kind of oriental witchcraft is this!"
Your Excellency, the Hector has been sunk, and the Klelandon has been heavily damaged and tilted!"
The Dutch officers were terrified, and one of the three Dutch capital gunboats was sunk and one was seriously injured in an instant.Ten gunboats in Donghai Town, the side guns fired a salvo, and the flowering shells exploded continuously, blowing up all the Dutch battleships."
Oh God!"
Felborg came back to his senses in a half-sound, and when he saw that another salvo from Donghai Town was coming, he couldn't help but shudder, and he felt an incomparably frightened roar in his heart, "Open fire, return fire!"
”On the decks of the Dutch warships, there were figures that were overturned by the explosion and fell to the ground wailing, and only a few soldiers who were not affected reacted under the shouts of the officers, immediately adjusted their gun muzzles, and fired back.The Dutch were stunned by Donghai Town, and the side guns fired sporadically, and the accuracy was not as good as before, and the shells splashed around the Zhenhai and splashed water columns.Zhao Ming roared again, "Open the cannon and sink the flagship of Hongmaoyi." ”The 10 gunboats of Donghaizhen were on the side again, and clouds of white smoke rose again, and the sound of "boom, boom, boom" came from the guns, and the shells whistled again.Seeing this, Felberg's face was full of horror, and he made a cross on his chest, and said urgently, "Quick, swing the rudder, get out of here!"
”The shelling of Donghai Town was too terrifying, the Dutch battleships were not opponents at all, and seeing Donghai Town firing another salvo, the Dutch on each battleship suddenly controlled the sails and swung the rudder in horror, turned around, and wanted to get out of the battlefield.The battleships rushed backwards in a swarm, but before they could complete their turn, the sound of thunder sounded again, and the fleeing Dutch battleship was immediately blown to the ground with its mast broken, igniting a raging fire.On the sea, the Dutch jumped into the sea, the fire reflected in the red sea, and the cries and cries for help came and went.At this time, the Dutch ships could only desperately flee, and they didn't care about the soldiers who fell into the water for help, but the warships of Donghai Town were in hot pursuit, and the lucky ships took the opportunity to rush up.Fleet Commander Fairberg, led the heavily tilted flagship, as well as several armed merchant ships that fled in a hurry, to rush out of the inner harbor from the South Passage and escape from Dayuan Bay, but the South Passage was blocked by the shipwreck in Donghai Town.For a time, the Dutch fleet was bombarded by the naval guns of Donghai Town, and one after another was torn apart by the artillery and sank into the sea in a raging fire.On the Fort of Reshalan, the governor of Taiwan, Firth, was already dumbfounded, and roared in pain, "Abandon the ship, quickly retreat to the castle." ”()
