Chapter Seventy-One: The ...... of the Incendiary Bomb (4,000 words) "Damn, quick, evasive, evasive."
The people on the enemy ship finally reacted, but in the face of torpedoes that reached a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, what was the point of their evasion - a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, that is, they could walk 27.77 meters in one second, which almost took less than 36 seconds on average for one kilometer, and less than 18 seconds for one mile......
It's only 18 seconds, how much can their ship react?
Although the torpedo will inevitably be affected by the storm due to the weather at this time, how much can the waves affect the torpedo as it travels underwater?
Even at speeds of 100 kilometers per hour, the waves may be pushed backwards.
"Boom~" "Boom~" "Boom~" “……” There was another series of explosions, except for a few torpedoes that missed, most of them hit the target, and after this round of explosions, there were less than fifty enemy ships left - such a small boat, let alone using torpedoes, even if it was handed over to Cheng Chuliang's fleet, it was not a matter at all.
But at this point, the task of the torpedo boats has also been completed, not because they don't want to continue to expand the results, but because they don't have many torpedoes - the other parts of the torpedo are very easy to do, and the technology is a little simpler than the shells, but in terms of fuel, because there is a main ingredient in the mixed oil that needs to be imported from Persia, so the production of oil is greatly limited, resulting in the delay in the production of torpedoes.
It can't be used for the time being.
"Quick, pursue, pursue, give the order, don't let go of any of the enemy, shoot out all our shells."
Although he was deeply shocked by the torpedo, Cheng Chuliang did not lose his mind, and at the first time when the torpedo boat retreated, he didn't even need Li Zhen's order, he was good at capturing fighters, and he had already woken up, and decisively let the fleet under his command start to pursue the enemy.
"Governor, Your Highness has sent some cannonballs, saying that we can use them in the next battle with the enemy."
Just when Cheng Chuliang commanded the fleet to pursue and intercept the enemy, the cannonballs sent by Li Zhen once again attracted Cheng Chuliang's attention.
"It's ......
It looks a little different from our shell, but I guess it must be some kind of special shell.
Cheng Chuliang immediately noticed the difference between this batch of shells and the shells he used.
"Do you still need to say that?
It's so obvious, the colors are all different, right?
Li Daoyun gave Cheng Chu a white eye, do you still need to guess?
The navy's standard shells are generally painted green or gray, but the batch of shells in front of me is painted an evil bright red, with a feeling of blood, which makes people look creepy at a glance, and they know at a glance that they are not easy to mess with.
"Hehe......"
Cheng Chuliang was not embarrassed, he also adjusted the atmosphere just to adjust the atmosphere, after all, everyone was shocked by the terrible power of the torpedo just now: "Send these shells over quickly, and see what kind of power it has, so that His Highness cherishes it so much." ” "Yes."
Since the shells were all 120 mm long, several soldiers simply sent all the shells to the batteries of several 120 mm naval guns, and there was no need to distribute them to other batteries.
Cheng Chuliang and Li Daoyun also followed, they were also very curious about the power of this strange color, and they didn't know what kind of function the shells sent by Li Zhen had in mind.
Soon, the red shells were loaded into the chamber, and the artillerymen quickly pulled the rope......
"Boom!"
The shells were fired.
"Woo~" The sound of shells breaking through the air sounded.
"It doesn't make a difference."
Cheng Chuliang muttered, just from the sound, this red cannonball is no different from an ordinary cannonball, which makes him feel very strange.
"Tong!"
As he spoke, the cannonball had already leaped more than a mile away, and it accurately hit the flagship of the Royal Merchant Group - I don't know if it was their luck, or Li Zhen deliberately left it, after two rounds of torpedoes, most of the enemy ships have been sunk, especially those flagships are the focus of attention, but the flagship of the Royal Merchant Group is still floating on the water, and it is struggling to fly away at this time.
But no matter how fast the ship is, how can it compare to the cannonballs?
In the blink of an eye, the shell had already landed on the flagship, and then smashed through the side of the ship and broke into the cabin, and only then did it explode, but it was just ......
"Poof!"
Like a muffled thunder, or a cannon under the water, the red cannonball actually made a muffled sound......
"I'll go ......"
Cheng Chuliang was disappointed: "I've been looking forward to it for a long time, just waiting for such a fart?"
That's what a ......."
"Don't talk about it yet, let's take a look."
The corners of Li Daoyun's mouth also twitched a little, but there was still a glimmer of hope: "The sound of this cannonball is so ......
Forehead......
So......
Peculiar, not at all like an ordinary shell......
All said......
Look, what am I talking about, isn't this already out?

” "......" no longer needs Li Daoyun to say, Cheng Chuliang has also seen it, because in such a short time, there was actually thick smoke coming out of the enemy ship, and then there was a flash of fire, and soon the fire spread, burning the entire flagship through, and the ship was on fire everywhere, looking from a distance, it seemed like a big fireball floating on the water - this kind of situation, just like the enemy ship that was shrouded by the Spitfire before, the difference is that the Spitfire is burning from the outside in, while the red cannonball is burning from the inside out, But both inside and outside, the flagship at this time has been surrounded by flames and turned into a torch at sea, and there is no need to put out the fire.
"Oh my God......
It turned out to be an incendiary bomb.
Cheng Chuliang finally understood what Li Zhen gave him, and also understood why this shell was painted red, because this was actually an incendiary bomb - Cheng Chuliang had heard of incendiary bombs, and even he used this thing, just because the previous incendiary bombs were difficult to make, and there was no possibility of mass production, plus the ordinary shells at that time were enough to run rampant in the world, so Cheng Chuliang only tried it a few times, and then he forgot about it and never remembered it again.
"When will this thing be mass-produced?
Doesn't it mean that fuel is very bad?
Cheng Chuliang said with a little confusion, the reason why incendiary bombs cannot be mass-produced is that the fuel is not easy to make, although ordinary gasoline can, but it cannot maximize the combustion, and it cannot be extinguished (there is ballast sand on the ship, gasoline combustion can be completely extinguished), and Li Zhen wants the kind of incendiary bombs similar to white phosphorus incendiary bombs or napalm bombs, and the oil is obviously unqualified - but now looking at so many shells, it is obvious that the fuel has been completely solved and can be mass-produced.
And it seems that the burning is very violent, and in just a few tens of breaths, it has already swept the entire big ship, and it seems that it is no longer saved.
"Do you need to ask?"
Li Daoyun said angrily: "Think about it yourself, what is the fuel of the Spitfire just now?"
” At this time, Li Daoyun was not compassionate anymore, in his words, he had already prayed for the dead before his head, and he had done his best, and then he only needed a pair of iron and stone hearts - this shameless and invincible theory made Cheng Chuliang speechless, and could only give a thumbs up to express his admiration.
"Yes, yes, I forgot this, mainly because I was so shocked just now that I actually forgot this."
Cheng Chuliang was a little embarrassed, the fuel of the Spitter belongs to spontaneous combustion in the wind, this technology content is much more advanced than the fuel of the incendiary bomb, since Li Zhen's craftsmen can study the fuel of the Spitter cannon, then it is natural to study the fuel of the incendiary bomb, and it may even be that the fuel of the incendiary bomb is the failure of the fuel of the incendiary cannon.
"It's not good, the enemy is about to run away, all ships listen to my orders, drive to the maximum speed, and be sure to shoot out all the incendiary bombs......
No, incendiary bombs save me some punches, don't use them if you don't have to be sure, we don't have many incendiary bombs.
Cheng Chuliang, who came to his senses, finally showed his wise side of belonging to the governor of the first army, knowing that the fighter plane was fleeting, he immediately ordered his subordinates to speed to the limit, ready to give the enemy the final blow.
"Yes."
The subordinates responded violently, the speed of the Yuezhou suddenly accelerated, and chased straight towards another big ship, while pursuing, ordinary shells of various calibers did not need money to hit the past, if you can use ordinary shells to force the other party to stop or sink, it is naturally the best - but the process is wrong, the number of incendiary bombs is not a lot, the reason why Li Zhen did not give so much, mainly because these are enough, and the rest needs to be prepared for the future.
"Oh my God, this crisis is finally resolved."
On the Holy Emperor's Son, Li Ergou finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene, the scene just now almost didn't scare his urine out, it was so thrilling that he was even ready to start the steam engine and forcibly rush out of a living way, and fled with Li Zhen.
"Why are you so nervous?
Or do you mean that you don't have so much faith in Hongu?
Li Zhen glanced at him and asked with a smile.
Li Ergou waved his hand again and again: "No, no, Your Highness, don't misunderstand, your subordinates definitely don't mean this......
Anyway, my subordinates were really nervous just now, but fortunately, the matter has finally passed, Your Highness, you are unparalleled, and we are finally safe. ” Li Zhen glanced at him again: "Safe?
Who told you that?
” "What do you mean?"
Li Ergou froze for a moment, and his face changed color: "Your Highness, do you mean to say that the enemy is not dead yet?"
Do they have a backhand?
” "Of course not."
Li Zhen shook her head slightly, but she didn't explain too much.
You must know that this may be the last time you appear at sea, and then you will return to Lingnan immediately, and then go directly back to Chang'an to inherit the throne, and once you let yourself inherit the throne, then your status will be completely different - now that you are the crown prince, if you die, the court will be furious at most, Li Shimin has many sons, and if he dies, he will be one of them, and there are others who can inherit the throne.
But if his identity is changed to the emperor, then death is not just as simple as anger.
All suspected murderers will die, even if you don't make a move, but as long as there is a suspicion, in order to show his legitimacy, but also to give an explanation to the people of the world, and even more for revenge, he will not spare you......
At that time, it will not be as simple as 10,000 or 20,000 people, it is likely that the people of those colonies will die, that is tens of millions of lives, not only will they die in this catastrophe, but even more innocent people will also die in this catastrophe - they certainly want to overthrow the rule of the Tang Dynasty and drive the Tang people out of their country, but if their compatriots are all dead, what is the use of them taking the country back from the Tang Dynasty?
Be a bare-bones commander?
Therefore, today is already the best opportunity to kill yourself, and there may be a chance on the way back, but at that time, there must be tens of thousands of troops around you, and ordinary people are not close to their side at all, but now it is different, although there are tens of thousands of marines and young soldiers around them, but now they are at sea, unless they engage in broadside battles, they are of no use, and it is also said that now is the time when their escort forces are the weakest - there is no such a good opportunity anymore, how can they easily let it go?
The siege of more than 200 ships just now is just a temptation, and at the same time, it is also to force out his own killer move, and the real killing move is definitely still to come.
"Then where does Your Highness think the enemy will start next?"
Li Ergou asked, although he couldn't figure it out, but since Li Zhen said so, he could only choose to believe it no matter how much he didn't believe it.
"How does this Hongu know?"
Li Zhen glanced at him strangely: "This is the enemy's killing move, how can this palace know?"
Do you think that this palace is really a fairy?
” "This is a problem."
Li Ergou sighed: "Can we just sit and wait to die?"

” "No way, let's see the move."
Li Zhen also said helplessly: "The killing move of this palace has already been used, and then it depends on how our opponent should make a move." ” "Hey......"
Li Ergou sighed heavily: "In that case, then Your Highness, let's go quickly, the enemy will catch up soon." ” "If you run, you'll fall into their trap."
Li Zhen shook his head and said, now that the battle in this sea area has just passed, the enemy will not dare to come over for a while, which means that this sea area is currently the safest.
"Hey......"
Li Ergou sighed again, he knew that his resourcefulness was not as good as others, and he couldn't think of any good ideas, so he could only do what Li Zhen said.
Seeing this, Li Zhen comforted: "You don't have to worry so much, now we are on the sea, and the sea does limit our play, but how can this not limit the enemy?"
There are only so many means at sea at their disposal, but either way, they must rely on their ships - unless they can fly, and as long as we use them, we need not be afraid, what other ship in the world will be our torpedoes and incendiary bombs?
