Following Lu Shiyan's order, the second cannon sounded.

The opponent's fleet still continued to move towards this side.

Then, the third sound.

The fleet on the opposite side still has no intention of stopping or turning.

"aim!"

Lu Shiyan saw that the opponent's fleet was only three miles away from him, so he put the walkie-talkie to his mouth.

After the commanders of the ships heard the order, they all took action and ordered the gunners to turn their guns and aim at the opposite fleet.

But just when Lu Shizhen decided to give the order to fire, the opponent's fleet took the lead in firing the cannon.

Lu Shiyan looked at the splash of the shells on the sea not far away, and looked at the opponent's fleet in surprise, and then a burst of anger surged up!

"Fucking bastards, these red-haired dogs are crazy! Fire me! Fuck them to death!"

Although being proud of victory or not discouraged in defeat is often talked about by those who march and fight, the First Fleet has never encountered an opponent after all, so it is normal for Lu Shiyan to be a little arrogant.

To sum it up in one sentence, before I hit you, you fired first, who gave you the courage?

Let alone him, even the people below couldn't bear it.

At Lu Shiyan's order, the soldiers decisively fired at the approaching fleet.

The shipboard guns on the [-] battleships roared and smashed the shells at the opposing fleet, followed by a huge roar, and the smoke rose.

In just one round of attack, six warships were shot, some on the side of the ship, some on the mast, and some directly on the hull.

And those whose hulls were shot had already begun to enter the water, and the crew on the ship yelled and tried to save the warship they were on, but it was of no avail.Had to jump ship and flee for his life.

But this was only the first wave of attacks. With the continuous bombardment of the First Fleet, more and more warships were hit.

At this time, on the largest warship, a middle-aged red-haired ghost in bright clothes began to panic.

"Quick! Give the order! Turn the bow! Retreat! Retreat!"

This brightly dressed middle-aged man, named Armando, is a Spanish count.

As for why they showed up here with the fleet and fired at the First Fleet, we have to start from the first three days.

Spain's maritime trade is well developed, and merchant ships come and go in the Gulf of Mexico.Among them are nobles of all levels, and naturally some belong to King Felipe IV.

Three days ago, a merchant ship passed by the sea area where the First Fleet was stationed.

This caravan belonged to a very famous family, and the last owner was named Ambrosio Spinola.He is the Spanish Ming Army, the first Marquis of Babs, and is considered to be one of the greatest generals in Spanish military history.

Seeing this strange but inexplicably shocking fleet at that time, the people in the caravan were all inexplicably horrified.Although I was very curious about where this fleet came from, I didn't even have the courage to approach, so I speeded up and approached the shore.

Soon, the person in charge of the merchant ship reported the news of the fleet to his Patriarch.

The head of the family felt that this was a big deal, so he quickly found Philip IV and told him what the servants had seen and heard.

Upon hearing this, Felipe IV took out the previous painting and asked the person in charge of the merchant ship:

"Is it this kind of warship?"

"Returning to Your Highness, it is this kind of warship!" The person in charge of the merchant ship recognized the hideous warship drawn on the paper at a glance.

"how many?"

"I didn't dare to get close, but there are at least fifteen ships! There are dozens of ships that are not the same as these."

More than fifteen ships?

Didn't Franco say that there are only seven such warships in Ming Dynasty?Why are there so many more ships?

Made it so fast?Or did it exist before?

"Is there a flag on the ship?"

"Yes, but I didn't see it very clearly, it was too far away."

"Is that so?"

With that said, Felipe IV asked someone to take out another piece of paper and handed it to the person in charge of the merchant ship.

The person in charge took it over and saw that it was a flag painted on it.

"That's right, that's it! The oriental dragon pattern above is very conspicuous."

Felipe IV was silent, and waved the man away.Then he looked at the second Marquis of Babs, the son of Spinola, who came to report the news.

"This is Daming's fleet!"

"What? Daming? That Daming in the East? Why did you come here!?"

"I just don't know their intentions. According to Franco, the fighting power of this fleet is hopelessly strong."

"Desperate? How desperate can it be?"

"The minimum range of the artillery on the warship is five or six miles away. One shot can blow a big hole in the ship. And such large and small artillery, each of their warships has more than 20 guns!"

As he spoke, Felipe IV was speechless.

How did Daming create this abnormal thing?Is it human?

"Flower bomb?" The Marquis of Babs froze for a moment, then smiled. "Don't we also have it? What kind of artillery can reach six or seven miles away? Can such artillery and warships be pulled? Besides, what are more than 20 artillery pieces? The one on our Spanish warship is not casually forty or fifty Door?"

"Their warships are extremely fast, three times faster than our ordinary warships!"

"Isn't it just that there are more coolies in the boat? It's normal to be faster. But three times faster? How is it possible? Actually, I've heard of this before, but the more I think about it, the more ridiculous it becomes. After all, anyone who has heard that steel can float on water You have to laugh your ass off, right?

These bragging about the Ming Fleet, in my opinion, are just excuses for Franco and others to avoid their crimes!They lied to His Highness, damn it! "

The Marquis of Babs suggested sullenly.

"You also find it unbelievable? But it's all true. Franco lied to me. Could it be that your people also lied to you?"

Felipe IV frowned.

You don't believe what the king said?

Do you want to be beaten with the suspicion on your face?

"This..."

The Marquis of Babs froze for a moment.

It seems that this is the case. .

But the warships he saw matched the shape in the legend, so it didn't mean that the fighting power was the same! ?

"In this matter, hearing is believing, seeing is believing. Why don't you just send someone to test it out?"

"Send someone to test? How to test? Are you going to test?"

Felipe IV's question hits the nail on the head.

"Well, I'm not feeling well recently, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle this matter well. Your Highness, please find someone else."

The Marquis of Babs declined.

Difficult to be a big task?

So what are you talking about here?

"I still feel that I need to know their intentions first. Is it hostile when they come to us this time? If not, wouldn't they offend people?"

"Wouldn't you know by taking a look when you're testing?"

Felipe IV was silent.

He always felt that it was not that simple.

"Then who do you think is best to send?"

"Armando!"
