I squinted to see that the warships on both sides were about to pick up, but Marin ordered to let the ship head to the east. In this direction, the Marin fleet has the fastest speed ...
Then, the first attempt by the pirates to get on the port failed ...
同时 At the same time, none of Marin's 16 guns hit the hull of the enemy ship, only one shell, which tore up a spinnaker of the enemy ship. Soon, the enemy had a pirate ship damaged by sails and reduced maneuverability. He was left behind and was busy changing the spare sail ...
After a while, like two overcharged knights, the fleets of both sides adjusted their directions again. The goal of the Pirate Fleet is to get close to Marin's fleet, and then fight sideboard. And Marin's goal is to keep the distance between the two sides, not too close, so as not to be successful. But it can't be too far, otherwise the artillery is completely misaligned ...
Fortunately, Marin's ships are about the same speed as pirate ships. If you switch to the old-fashioned Karak sailing, it is very likely that the pirates will catch up with it ...
The following time, the fleets of the two sides circled around the sea. The pirates just couldn't catch up with Marin's fleet, and Marlin's gunners couldn't fight ...
Gradually, Marin's patience was running out. At the same time, the anger in his heart was stirred ...
Marlin is a somewhat insignificant person, but at the same time, he is also a person with a little blood. Under normal circumstances, he will not recklessly charge. However, when he hits the real fire, he will abandon those thoughts of self-protection and work hard.
转 After a long circle with the pirate ship, the **** factor in Marin's heart was finally ignited:
命令 "Order, get closer to the pirates 300 meters, we fire at 200 meters!"
"Master, think twice! This is too dangerous!" Captain Kidd advised.
"What can be dangerous? Isn't it 200 meters away?"
"Master, this distance is not so precise to control. One can be inattentive, and the distance between the two parties may be within 100 meters. There seems to be a bow and arrow on the other side of the ship. If you hurt the Lord, that would be bad!" It does carry some bows and arrows, and it is a heavy infantry bow. If thrown, it may really shoot more than 200 meters.
"That's easy, Garland, take out my plate armor, I'm going to put on the plate armor, and stand on the deck to direct the battle. Other guards, put on the chest plate armor!"
Squinting, Marin himself was not afraid. As his guardian, how could he be afraid? As a result, Marin and the 50 guards all boarded the deck to prevent the enemy from taking the opportunity to jump off the boat when an accident ...
After reaching a distance of 200 meters, the hit rate of the naval gun really increased greatly. Some artillery shells also started to land on enemy ships. Marin discovered through a telescope that several pirates were injured by an iron ball. Even, Marin saw that a pirate with bad luck had his **** head taken away by an iron ball ...
At this time, the pirates also fired. They couldn't catch up with each other for a long time, which made them all suffocate. So, the pirate leader "One-eyed Ali" who soaked in the front shouted:
"Everyone goes to paddle, take out all the spare paddles, we must catch up with the European guy's boat!" After finishing, "One-eyed Ali" personally took a paddle and ran to help ...
Upon seeing the pirates on the deck, the boss personally went to paddle, so he went to the cabin to take out the spare paddle, and went to the sideboard ...
Then, in Marin's surprised eyes, the speed of the Arabian sailing boat at the forefront suddenly increased and ran towards the foremost 2501 ...
While the 2501 ship still maintains the original speed, the distance between the two sides is only 200 meters, and the two ships are likely to encounter ...
"Go to the cabin and take out the gun and ammunition, everyone is ready to fire!" Marin ordered the 50 guards around him. These guards are carefully selected by Schwartz and Kohler.They not only have strong fighting ability, but also use muskets. If the output of clockwork rifles was too low, they would have brought clockwork rifles. However, because of the shortage, the Muschktor musket was used ...
After half an hour, the distance between the two ships was reduced to 50 meters. At this time, the Moorish pirates still shot with bows and arrows on the deck. But at the same time, Marin, with his guards, also began to use the Muskhet musket to fight back ...
"嗖 嗖 嗖 ..." The Moors bow and arrow began to fall from the air. However, because the Moorish pirates were too laborious to paddle before, archery became a little soft. Only two unlucky sailors were shot and injured on Marin's deck. As for him and his guards, because they wore plate armor, they almost ignored each other's bows and arrows. And Marin's guards began to cause casualties to each other one after another using muskets ...
Of course, at this distance, the most advantageous is the artillery. The distance of 50 meters is already very close. At this time, the old gunners on the ship can finally aim easily ...
The eight 12-pound cannons on the 2501 aimed at the side of the nearby Moorish pirate ship ...
"Boom Boom-" One round shot in the past, there were 3 guns "on target", on the Moorish pirate ship, sawdust flying horizontally, and injured the pirate.
"What's the matter?" "One-eyed Ali" hurriedly came over from the other side to ask.
"Boss, we have a gun in the side of the ship! It seems that the artillery on the opponent's ship is very powerful, the iron ball is quite large!" Said a pirate.
重 "Heavy artillery? Is the other ship a warship? However, this shape is very similar to a merchant ship ..." "One-eyed Ali" was a little confused ...
He knows Portuguese and Spanish ships very well. As a leading brother who has professionally robbed western and Portuguese merchant ships for 20 years, he can tell at a glance whether the other ship is a merchant ship or a warship.
Generally speaking, warships have high buildings, more artillery, and soldiers on the deck. However, the number of these two ships is small, and the number of artillery is not large. The ship building only has the rear part, which is obviously a merchant ship ...
While he was still wondering, more shells poured out ...
"Boom boom boom-" Several 12 pound iron **** hit the ship. This time, two pirates were directly killed on the spot. One of them died very badly and was directly smashed into a meatloaf ...
The pirates finally began to be afraid, and "One-eyed Ali" ordered an immediate U-turn. He also noticed that the gunner on the opponent's ship could not reach the target, and he couldn't hit from a distance.
But it's late. The gunner on the 2501 seemed to find the feeling. The more he hit the more smoothly, the more frequently the shells "shot on the target." Then, the pirate ship "One-eyed Ali" led by "One-eyed Ali" turned around and counted several guns ...
When the "One-eyed Ali" turned and started to escape, a shell hit the previously smashed deck, and then penetrated the side of the ship that had just been shelled on the other side, breaking a large hole ...
Suddenly, the sea water began to flood in ...
糟糕 "Oops, our boat is flooding! Go and plug the loopholes!"
However, the things that make them despair are still to come. Previously, the 2501 and the "One-Eyed Ali" faced each other head-on. The 2502 was blocked in the back and did not dare to fire, for fear of accidentally hurting Marin on the 2501. However, when the "One-eyed Ali" turned, the 2502 rushed out from the side and began to bombard the "One-eyed Ali" crazy.
At a distance of tens of meters, the old gunners are still very reliable. As a result, with the volley of 16 side guns of the two ships, the "One-Eyed Ali", which was originally not thick enough, was even more unbearable.
独 "One-eyed Ali" is a classic medieval battleship, which only considers the possibility of collision. Therefore, its bow is very strong and crashworthy. But the thickness of the sideboard is normal. Because when these ships were designed, they did not consider the issue of shelling ...
Then, in the shocked eyes of the pirates on the three pirate ships behind, the "One-eyed Ali" was smashed by the sideboard, began to flood a lot, and began to sink ...
In desperation, the pirate leader Ali, with one eye, had to abandon the boat and flee to another pirate ship. At the same time, the three pirate ships also started to release small boats to rescue those pirates who fell into the water ...
Marlin suddenly found an opportunity ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Let two ships bombarded three pirate ships ...
However, the other three ships were a little far from Marin's ship. And Marlin's gunners were not adapted to long-range shelling. So, the hit rate is very low. In the end, the three pirate ships were severely damaged. Although damaged, they were not serious.
Like this, the three pirate ships fleeing in the direction of Morocco ...
Marin wanted to chase, but his speed was not faster than the pirate ship in the case of spinnaker. Hanging the sail, but not the wind (pirate escape direction is southeast, not northeast), in short, it is difficult to catch up. Even if you catch up, you will be close to the coast of Morocco. If a bunch of Moorish pirate ships popped up, they wouldn't run away. In the end, Marin gave up the pursuit, and according to the original plan, continued south and headed for the Canary Islands ...
This naval battle is the first time that Europe has relied mainly on the force of artillery to strike enemy ships. Through naval battles, Marin also found many problems. For example, naval warfare also requires courage. If Marin had brought the ship up earlier and approached the enemy with a concentrated salvo, perhaps victory would have been established. Of course, that is also dangerous. Because, if the sailors on the ship are docked, it is also very dangerous. Even Marin himself may be hacked by the enemy.
Therefore, Marin believed that if enough musketeers and grenadiers were on board to prevent the enemy's jetty from helping to chop people, they could safely approach the bomber with heavy artillery. And, the closer you get, the more powerful the shelling ...
In short, in the case of using the Musketeer to block the enemy's jetty gang, the heavy use of heavy artillery and approaching the bomber will easily bring a devastating blow to the enemy ship. The artillery era has arrived, and the battle will be gradually withdrawn from the stage of history until it is completely replaced ...
