Chapter 4: Water Antenna, Burning (11)

This is just the beginning.The bubble shattered rapidly, the vortex revolved frantically, and gravity quickly pulled the battleship back to the surface, which was extremely turbulent.However, this process was only halfway through and was forcibly interrupted by the evil bred by the black plague.

A black shadow, a huge shadow comparable to a mountain, rushed out of the water at a rocket-like high speed, and hit the bottom of the battleship heavily.Copper skin, cypress wood shell, thick keel reinforced with iron rings...Where the man-made solid hull is fragile under the impact of the shadows, it looks like a piece of paper, the sailing warship makes a terrible sound of wood cracking, and the waterline is A large hole half the width of the ship was punched out, and the keel broke on the spot like noodles.

When the battleship smashed back to the surface, the hull had been folded into two sections in the middle, the first half was still floating stubbornly, and the second half had fallen into the water.A certain artillery exploded and a bright yellow fireball soared, illuminating the square bow of the warship.

At this time, Suo Zhongwu finally saw the name of the ship clearly."Dangbian Kaiyu", the latest of the three third-class battleships, with a full load displacement of 2,400 tons, is also considered a sea fortress in this era.However, the monster that smashed it was not only bigger, heavier, and stronger, but its appearance also looked...more earth in the 19th century.

The dark shadow floats on the port side, less than a nautical mile from "Mingwei Xianxin".It leaned on the side of the "Dangbian Kaiyu", thorns on the wreckage of the sailing warship, as if to suck everything clean.This thing is undoubtedly a ghost ship, but the age of the ship is obviously very new, the outline has not changed much compared to the prototype, the three mainmasts did not even completely collapse, and the bow masts were all preserved.

Looking down along the sloping mast, the sharp bow even has a bow image, and the curve is full of attachments, which looks like a sea snake just after a meal.Among the Zhenyang navy divisions, only the most old-fashioned ships have this design, but those old ships have long been relegated to the second line, and the tonnage is generally small, and they all add up to not have this scale.

The giant ghost ship is almost the same size as the Mingwei Xianxin, and the freeboard is even higher. The two sides are equipped with four artillery decks. The open gun windows are deep and deep, which looks like a sea monster. eye.

Suo Zhongwu felt a horror, and his head hurt suddenly, but his performance was already good."Lord Fubo" saw the black shadow floating up, his chin almost fell to the deck, and then he kept the probe position, and his trembling right arm pointed to the bow of the ghost ship."Long Zun!" With a hoarse throat, he squeezed out the name with great difficulty, his pale face, as if he would faint at any time:

"Lonely Dragon Lord!"

The captain hurriedly stretched out his arm and drew Lao Kui back, who was extremely gagged.But the heroic performance of the Prime Minister has been seen by everyone present.The sailors and army soldiers stared at me and I looked at you, as if collectively turned into wooden people, even the officers dumbed their throats for a while; Suo Zhongwu was so shocked that only the name of the ship kept echoing.

/Long Zun?First-class battleship Longzun?It's a hell, Hariatta only talked about it yesterday.She was the pride of the shaking foreign army in the past, with a total of four artillery decks and 130 large and small cannons. She was personally named by Suo Kui nine years ago and personally presided over the launch, and she wiped out the enemy in one fell swoop.

In the entire Henghai Eight Kingdoms, even the milking doll knew Longzun, and Suokui even regarded her as a baby bump, not only has always used it as an imperial ship, the head of the ship even used a pure gold five-claw Panlong... ...Wait, when did she sink?It seems that it hasn't been a year, and it's the Weiguo side?It was too fast, and the black plague was repaired too fast!/

"Okay, you all saw it too!"

Hariata's voice sounded in time like a long drought.Suo Zhongwu had been looking for her just now, and only now did he see her at the root of the foremast.Hariata's military posture is still upright, but her expression is too deliberate, her speech rate is faster than before, and the vibrato can't be eliminated like a tail, but these shortcomings are not important. After all, she still stood up, panicking. At a critical juncture, I stepped forward to fulfill my duties:

"It is our incompetence and the loss of the flagship supervised by the Lord of Fubo. Then, it is our mission to make up for the mistakes! Move, my brothers and sisters! Move, protect our'Mingwei's belief' and protect our greatness Make an appearance!"

The sailors and army soldiers roared back, like a group of wounded beasts.Suo Zhongwu picked up the wool brush and turned the muzzle around to clean up the carbon residue. The poles were all extended into the muzzle. Only then did he remember that the fast gun is a breech structure.To conceal his emotions, he lowered his head deliberately, not wanting the crew to notice him, but he happened to see scattered pieces of corpse puppets, shriveled muscles like ropes, swollen pale skin, wet mucus flowing out.

The ghost ship that the former flagship turned into is right in front of you, and you can't even fight it.But the question is, what can I do if I fight?How many rounds can a tired artillery fire at a long distance?The side battle is unavoidable, and the angle impact is also unavoidable. This is not pessimistic, but a rational judgment based on the common sense of the dog hanging./Dog hanging, dog hanging!/

While cursing in his heart, he cleaned up the place that should be cleaned up and poured new drugs into the cauldron.Because of the many reasons that he can and should not admit, Suo Zhongwu's hands kept trembling when he was working, and it took twice as long as he stumbled, but he became the first person to fire back, even he didn't expect it.

The artillery that can be used on the port side and the upper deck began to fire one after another.For a time, dazzling fires came one after another, gun smoke enveloped the field of vision, and there was a reassuringly spicy taste./ Peace of mind.That's right, except for peace of mind, there is no other use./

After the "Long Zun" became a ghost ship, not only the tonnage was greatly increased, but also without the weakness of the ammunition warehouse, even if it was hit by hundreds of artillery, it would not be seriously damaged for a while.Although there were many water jets around it, it did not rush to counterattack. Instead, it stayed in place for several minutes, absorbing a lot of wreckage from the "Dangbian Kaiyu" and numerous sailor corpses floating on the surface.After all of this was done, the ghost giant turned to accelerate against the rain of bullets.

"Mingwei Xianxin" retracted its mainsail again, and the paddle wheels on both sides of the ship croaked to increase the speed, trying to get away from the enemy ship."Long Zun" did not appear to be rushed. It spotted the navy flagship and patiently pursued it, regardless of the number of shells fired by other warships.

Eight chains, seven chains, six chains, five chains...The "Dragon Zun" is getting closer, and the outline becomes clearer.
