Iron Dynasty

Chapter 728: Fire Attacks the Ship

The sea breeze whistled, and Yue Yun's hair was blown up.

He tidied up his blue navy robes, and his fingers lightly rubbed the navy badge on his shoulders. On this badge, a sailing warship was heading forward against the huge waves.

Three months ago, their navy still didn't have military uniforms, and all the money in the treasury was used by Niu Ben for the army. He was jealous of the military uniforms for a long time, and he made a mess in the newly established Military Aircraft Department, which then reported to the emperor.

So the issue of the navy uniform was approved, but for the time being, only some generals wear regular uniforms, while others dress as ordinary people.

Fortunately, at least the Marines have their own uniforms.

Xie Yuan is right, the British are indeed difficult to deal with. That time I was able to come back alive was just a fluke. Yue Yun said sternly: But don't be afraid, as long as you encounter British warships, you only need to fight hard. British warships have always It is the tradition of their navy to fight every enemy, and if you want to win against them, you have to be more ruthless than them.”

Liu Chen and other generals nodded when they heard the words.

At this time, Xie Yuan suddenly said: By the way, yesterday I met the people from the shipyard, and I overheard them say that the shipyard is now trying to make a brand new warship. I don't know if it is true or not.

A brand new warship. The admirals were most interested in this, asking: What kind of warship?

I didn't hear this clearly, but it's true. Xie Yuan patted his chest to assure.

Yue Yun frowned, and he brought the topic back to normal, Now we are discussing the war in Goryeo, what are you doing!

Liu Chen and Xie Yuan laughed twice and immediately shut up.

Yue Yun didn't say anything, but he was also looking forward to this new type of warship. He forcibly suppressed the excitement. He continued: It is easy to annihilate the Goryeo navy this time, but it is difficult for the King of Goryeo to open the port. As long as he thinks the power of the barbarians is greater than our country of Dayu, Goryeo will act as the barbarian's vicious dog to bite us.

If that's the case, why be polite with them and break their dog teeth directly. Liu Chen shouted loudly.

Breaking the dog's teeth is not enough. Goryeo has been able to be so arrogant all these years because of the master behind them. This time, I will let them know that the barbarians can't keep him. If this happens, Goryeo will surrender. Yue Yun said.

The generals nodded.

After talking for a while, Yue Yun saw the setting sun, and at this time he asked the generals to go back to rest, and he was about to face a naval battle.

The south wind howled, and the two-hundred-mile journey was only one night for the fleet. When everyone woke up the next day, the coastline gradually came into view.

Yue Yun had already woken up, and at this time he was observing the situation in front of him with a telescope.

According to the information provided by Wang Xuan, the only remaining warships in Korea are gathered in the ancient city of Haicheng. These warships are small in size, and they are all small warships compared with their warships.

Moreover, the information said that some Goryeo battleships have been equipped with artillery provided by the barbarians, but the number is not large.

Yue Yun was a little worried about this. The artillery had only appeared in the Great Yu Kingdom for five years, but in the past five years, the artillery had spread very fast.

First, the barbarians mastered artillery, and then Goryeo also mastered artillery.

He believed that this Japanese invasion of Goryeo would soon make Goryeo's soldiers also armed with muskets.

Thinking of this, Yue Yun's expression was solemn, and the enemy was not a fool. If the Great Yu country changed, they would also respond according to the changing situation.

Hold the semaphore and let Liu Chen and Xie Yuan lead the warship to detour from both sides. Yue Yun put down his telescope and looked serious.

Yes. The lieutenant had to turn around and leave.

Under Yue Yun's order, the battleship headed towards the ancient city of Hai in three separate routes.

At the same time, the Goryeo navy in Haicheng also discovered the battleship group at sea. At this time, the Goryeo soldiers who were in charge of vigilance immediately went to the navy's tent.

General Park, there are a lot of battleships at sea, and they seem to be battleships of the Great Yu Kingdom. A navy general said anxiously.

Park Zhengtai was the commander of the Goryeo Navy. Hearing the words, he immediately walked out of the camp to the Haigu Wharf. As the soldier said, now the 48 battleships are being double-teamed from three directions.

The king should never give up this king's life. There was a trace of anxiety in Pu Zhengtai's eyes. As the commander of the navy, he naturally knew the power of the battleships of the Great Yu Kingdom.

Now they finally fought back from the sea.

General, what should I do now? asked the generals.

Park Jung-tae sighed, the war between Goryeo and the Japanese country had just ended, and now the King of Goryeo has attracted an even more terrifying opponent.

It's just that Goryeo has no way out now, they can only face it.

Order all the soldiers to board the boat. Park Zhengtai shouted loudly, he had already made a decision.

The generals had mixed expressions when they heard the words, some left in response, while others were hesitant and timid.

It's just that Park Zhengtai is a veteran, and no one dares to disobey, so he has to take orders and leave.

At sea, Yue Yun's battleship was getting closer and closer to the ancient city of Haicheng. At this time, Yue Yun said to the lieutenant; Put the fire attack ship down, and the Korean battleships on the dock are dense, it is the time to use it.

Yes, General. After receiving the order, the crew immediately put down the small boats from the boat.

These boats have kerosene and powder kegs, and a layer of thatch is thrown over them.

When the boat was put down, the soldiers threw the torches on the boat and let the fire attack boat float to the pier of the ancient city with the wind.

After Yue Yun put down the fire attack ships, other warships also put down the fire attack ships. In a short time, there were dozens of fire attack ships in the sea.

These fire-attacking ships rushed towards the ancient city of Haicheng like a small fleet.

Yue Yun stared at these fire-attacking ships with binoculars. With the study of naval tactics, he learned a lot of warfare methods.

This fire attack is the method he learned based on the case in the book.

Under the blowing of the sea breeze, the fire attack ships entered the port of the ancient city of Haicheng at a very fast speed. More than 30 fire attack ships were loaded with gunpowder and entered the gap between the battleships of the Korean Navy. Some of them stopped when they hit the warships. Down, the flames on board kept burning the hull of the Goryeo battleship.

Quickly put out the fires on these ships.

In a hurry, the current Goryeo navy was in a mess, seeing these burning boats drifting over, they instinctively went to put out the fire.

It was only when the soldiers poured water on the fire to attack the ship, they suddenly found that the ship was suddenly filled with huge flames.

What they didn't know was that every fire attack ship was loaded with tung oil, and if the water got on the oil, it would only make more sparks like when cooking.

While they were confused, the huge flame made the boat burn further away, and it lifted into the sky with a loud noise and a huge flame.

The fireboat exploded.
