Chapter 364 Night Raid Naval Battle Dimensionality Reduction Strike If it is daytime, spraying gasoline on these merchant ships with drones that can spray gasoline will have almost no effect.It is impossible for Jeon Wook to get close to these merchant ships and set them on fire.But the problem now is that these thirteen merchant ships are all hanging lanterns, and when they were in Zilang Villa, Quan Xu had already done experiments, and he only needed to spray gasoline on the lanterns, and the lanterns would burn and form a sea of fire.When the four drones took off one after the other and flew towards the Dutch armed merchant ship in the distance, the Dutch did not realize that danger was about to befall them."
The drone began to reduce altitude!""
Spray!"
However, to Quan Xu's surprise, although these merchant ships were sprayed with gasoline, they were not directly ignited."
What's going on?"
Four drones sprayed more than 800 liters of gasoline without any effect."
Lower the flight altitude again and get closer!"
At this time, due to the closer distance, Quan Xu finally saw it clearly through the timely picture of the drone, because the Dutch merchant ship was actually not hanging a lantern, but a lamp similar to a horse lantern, with a glass cover on the outside, and the lamp holder was made of iron, and it was far larger than a horse lantern, and it was not easy to ignite even if it was sprayed with gasoline."
Xianggong, what now?"
Originally, Quan Xu wanted to take advantage of the night and use the pesticide spraying drone to give the Dutch armed merchant ship a trick to rain fire, but unfortunately failed at this time.Quan Xu thought for a while and said, "Catch up and greet them with rockets!"
”When Quan Xu went to sea, on the top deck, he was equipped with two Shenhuo Flying Raven II rocket launchers, Shenhuo II, and Shenhuo I had greatly improved the warhead, and the range could also reach 800 to 1,000 meters, but the fatal flaw was not changed, and the same accuracy was not high.Now Quan Xu has no better way, so he has to fight bayonets at sea.As the seals accelerated, the distance between the seals and the armed Dutch merchant ships was slowly closing.The Philips armed merchant ship, an armed merchant ship that could almost catch up with the Dutch third-class warship, was equipped with sixty-four guns, had three decks, and had a full load displacement of more than 1,200 tons.As the flagship of this fleet, Elwin and Duncan and other generals were observing a 105mm field gun."
How can such a thin barrel not explode?"
Erwin was puzzled, and he looked at the others.Duncan shook his head: "This cannon is very light, I tried it, I can't pick it up alone, its advantages are obvious, very lightweight, use it on land......"
Before Duncan finished speaking, a rush of footsteps came.Erwin frowned, he hated being disturbed the most, especially when discussing things: "Your Excellency, Commander, come out ......
Something happened!
”Erwin said angrily: "Say ......"
"There is a strange ship on our side, there is no mast, but the speed is extremely fast!"
”"No masts?"
Duncan was a little curious: "A sea ship without a mast?"
”Erwin hurriedly got up and ran towards the deck, the seals flashing bright lights and rushing towards the Dutch fleet with impunity.This ship without a mast, the hull is not large, it is at least a lap smaller than Erwin's flagship Philips, this Philips is the ship of the Philips family, and this ship can bring the Philips family at least fifty or sixty thousand silver coins a year.This seal was about eight or nine hundred steps away from the Bloody Mary, and it launched the Divine Fire Crow No. 2 at the Bloody Mary, Quan Xu only did not install naval guns, the main consideration was that there will be opportunities in the future to install rapid-fire guns, rather than the primitive artillery at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but the Divine Arrow Crow is very simple, just push the launcher up.In Erwin's incredible gaze, the fifteen divine fire crows on the seal dragged a long tail flame, carrying a terrifying whistling sound to break through the air, the crimson trajectory was crisscrossed, almost covering the sea, covering the sky, no fireworks can be so spectacular, so bright, this beautiful and romantic, sound and light effect is enough to make every witness unforgettable for a lifetime.Most of the rockets fell into the water, the huge explosion lifted the waves more than ten feet high, the mast was violently broken by the blast wave, the sails were torn to pieces, and the battleship was on fire!
The Bloody Mary merchant ship, which bore the brunt of the Bloody Mary, was Irwin's property, and was sprayed with more than 200 liters of gasoline by drones, and the upper deck of the armed merchant ship of the Bloody Mary was already on fire, and countless sailors were screaming and running frantically, trying to put out the fire.Erwin looked at the Bloody Mary dumbfounded and said, "My Bloody Mary ......"
Duncan let out a long sigh, the Bloody Mary had lost the possibility of rescue."
Your Excellency, Your Bloody Mary is finished!"
Erwin closed his eyes in pain, and let out a lament in his heart: "It's over, it's really unlucky. ”The soldiers and sailors of the other Dutch armed merchant ships were even more dumbfounded, screaming and screaming, scurrying around like flies being picked up, and even stumbling into each other.Some of the fellows trembled, kneeling on the ground and making wild crosses, their faces as earthy as they muttered to themselves begging God to bless.The damage caused to them by rocket artillery was not great, but it almost broke them psychologically, how could they have seen such a terrible weapon?
In their eyes, the rocket launchers are demons sent by Satan to throw terrible thunder at them, which will tear them to pieces!
When they launched an attack on the Native Americans, the Native Americans were also frightened by the flames and loud noises of their guns, thinking that the ghosts were angry, lost the courage to resist, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to pray, and let them slaughter, and they also laughed at the ignorance of these uncivilized natives who were incurable, but they did not expect this scene to be repeated in them.By this time, the sailors on the merchant ship Bloody Mary had already begun to jump ship, and they were scrambling to be the first.At the same time, Erwin also ordered the other big ships to hurry away from the Bloody Mary, because he knew very well that the Bloody Mary was loaded with more than three tons of gunpowder, which was to prepare for the war with the Daming Marine.However, the Great Ming Sailor did not come, but the Bloody Mary burned, and the fire would immediately detonate the gunpowder in the hold, and in the event of an explosion, the merchant ships close to the Bloody Mary would definitely be affected.It was as if a huge fireball had risen from the sea, and the shock wave of the gunpowder explosion was wrapped in sawdust and all kinds of debris, and it rushed into the sky, and the thunderous explosion shook the surrounding ships and rolled down to the deck.Erwin was completely dumbfounded, the corners of his mouth twitched violently, and he let out a wail: "My gunpowder!
These bastards have ruined my months of hard work in transporting, and I'm going to kill them!!
”The sailors who had just jumped into the sea were smashed to the bottom of the sea by the wave set off by the explosion, and after a long time, the terrible fire and the sound of the explosion slowly disappeared, and at this time, there were stumps and broken arms floating on the sea, as well as human organs.Even if it was just a yacht converted from a frigate without weapons in later generations, even if it was only an attack on the Dutch fleet with backward and primitive rocket artillery, it caused huge losses to the Dutch combined fleet."
Fire!"
Erwin howled frantically, and ordered the ships to fire on the strange masted ship, if he did not give the order to fire back, but the guns needed open flames, and the armed merchant ships that had been sprinkled with gasoline were instantly ignited and turned into huge torches.This wave of fire was very unexpected, and very fast, like the Bloody Mary, in just half a column of incense, the fire got out of control, and what is even more hateful is that those lifeboats were also sprinkled with gasoline and turned into fire boats.The armed merchant ships were even more confused, and at this time, the name of the Sea Groom finally appeared, and after the initial panic, other armed merchant ships fired shells at the SEAL.The "boom ......"
Dutch firing artillery technology is really not covered, in the first round of test firing, there were three shells formed a close miss.Quan Xu ordered: "Shen Liangcai, speed up!"
”"Sanniang, continue to take off the drone!"
Today's Dutch merchant ships are exposed to open flames, and they carry torches and occasionally fire cannonballs at the seal, although this weapon does not necessarily penetrate the seal's solid hull.However, the yacht is not a warship, and the electrical appliances and furniture on the yacht are fragile, even if a piece of paint is smashed, Quan Xu is still a little distressed.Relying on the advantage of the seals' high speed, Quanxu's seals played a game of cat and mouse with the Dutch Combined Fleet, and from time to time when they reached the effective range, they would shoot at the Dutch fleet.The Philips, which had been in a state of good fortune, finally ushered in the first wave of hits, and a Divine Fire Raven II rocket launcher did not wait to hit the second deck of the Philips, and exploded about two meters from the deck.A terrible fireball, scorching shrapnel that was almost burning screamed and poured down, nailed into the flesh and deck, and the screams shook the earth, several soldiers were blown up to a height of seven or eight meters, and more than 30 people covered in blood splattered everywhere, turning into hedgehogs lying on the ground, splitting limbs and flying wildly, miserable.Sanniang replaced the drone operation with a shadow guard, and she mounted the rocket launcher on the launcher: "This is so fun, let me do it this time!"
”Play, that's right.In Sanniang's eyes, this is not a fight, just a play.However, four ships of the Dutch Combined Fleet had already caught fire and burned their torches, and two of them had been hit by a rain of fire from the sky, following in the footsteps of Bloody Mary, and the flames that rose twenty or thirty meters high shone on the Dutch Combined Fleet like a lighthouse in the dark sea, and the soldiers showed pale faces.Fifteen to six, and nine armed merchant ships, most of them wounded.However, so far, the opponent has not lost even a single hair.
