The Ming Dynasty has just been exiled and the Luzon system has awakened.
Chapter 169 The First Battle of the Mountain Class Cruiser
When the Qing navy arrived and the battleship was 500 meters away from the second Taishan and Huashan ships, the gunners on the two ships who had been waiting for a long time finally pulled the match rope.
In an instant, there was thunderous thunder, fire and black clouds spurted out, and the muzzle storm set off ripples on the vast expanse of blue waves.
"Boom boom boom..."
The next second, the three fastest Qing warships exploded into several dazzling fires.
Whether it was a wooden hull or a fragile human body, they were directly dismantled into parts under the violent air waves generated by the explosion. Almost instantly, the entire bows of these three warships were torn off.
The Qing army was stunned. Their original smiles froze under the light of the explosion. They really couldn't understand why the Ming army's cannon muzzles didn't look big, but the power of the shells was so terrifying.
Of course, it was not just the Qing army who was shocked. The Portuguese who were watching the excitement were also stunned by the huge fireball set off by the explosion.
"Oh God! Did these Ming people move hundreds of pounds of artillery onto the battleship!"
Captain James opened his mouth and exclaimed. He knew that the only artillery pieces that could cause such horrific destructive power were those hundreds of pounds of cannon used to defend the city.
In fact, the 130mm naval gun equipped on the Mountain class is slightly larger than the traditional 24-pound smoothbore gun in terms of caliber. (different in each period)
But the calibers are almost the same, but the shells are completely different.
When a traditional 24-pounder gun fires high-explosive shells, the actual weight of each shell is 6 kilograms. (24 pounds is the weight of a solid iron ball, and high-explosive bombs are much lighter)
The warhead weight of the mountain-class 130mm naval gun is 29 kilograms!More than four times that of traditional spherical cannonballs.
In such a stark contrast, it is not difficult to understand the destructive power caused.
"Quick! Fire back!"
Seeing that three of his own warships were half-dead by a round of artillery fire from the Ming army, the navy commander who led the team shouted loudly.
The distance of 500 meters was also within the limit range of a small number of artillery guns on Qing military ships.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the roar of artillery fire rang out again from the Ming army battleship opposite.
And this time, there was not only the thunderous explosion, but also a crisp and continuous banging sound.
Before the Qing army could react, the high-speed rotating artillery shells had already hit them with a little scarlet color.
"Boom boom boom..."
In this round of attacks, the three Qing bird ships that had been beheaded by artillery fire were directly submerged in the flames. If nothing else, these three ships were already difficult to save.
But other Qing ships had no time to pay attention to them.
Because just when these three bird ships were blown into fireballs, dense 37mm shells had already hit other Qing warships.
"Boom, bang, pop..."
Under various strange explosions, these Qing warships shrouded in 37mm shells instantly turned into a hell on earth.
Cracked sawdust, flying brains, and scattered bones.
Wherever these 37mm shells passed, fragile human bodies exploded instantly like big watermelons, and the sprayed plasma dyed the deck red.
The soldiers of the Qing army had never seen such a battle before. Many of them were frightened out of their wits and their legs became weak.
They were rolling in blood with snot and tears and wanted to escape from here, but the ship was so big, where could they escape?
The attack continued, with a round of 130mm artillery shells falling every ten seconds, plus a 37mm machine gun that continued to straf the deck.
Not to mention the Qing Navy's counterattack, there was even no one at the helm. For a while, the Qing Navy's Navy was completely in chaos.
"Quick! Surrender! Surrender quickly!"
The navy commander, who was lucky enough to survive, let out a shrill cry.
At this moment, he was lying on the deck with an unknown person's intestine hanging from his head, and a lot of light yellow liquid was leaking out of his lower body. He was so scared that he peed his pants.
The confidence and certainty of victory before have now become a joke, but he doesn't care what the joke is, he just wants to survive.
Even if you can't live, at least you have to die a complete corpse!
He glanced at the mess on the deck...
There is no way to say that the whole body is intact. The pieces in the east and the west may not be able to be put together.
……
"Sir, the Qing army has surrendered." An officer on the Taishan shouted.
Jia Wenxuan nodded and ordered: "Stop the shelling!"
This time he didn't pretend not to see it. Most of these Qing navy sailors were Han Chinese, so they didn't need to kill them all like the Tatars and Japanese navy.
It would also be good to leave a small life behind and send him to dig and build roads to atone for his sins.
As for the Tatars, who hired Tatar officers specifically to control the army?
Well, they will fight to the death!
In fact, the most important reason is that Zhu Heyi has ordered that the use of main guns should be reduced as much as possible when effective results have been achieved.
Emperor Zhu Da expressed that he was also helpless.
Although the military factory copied the crude 130mm naval gun he bought from the Miracle Market, the structure of the gun could be copied, but the barrel material could not be copied!
The original 130mm naval gun has a full charge effective life of 1000 rounds.
The lifespan of this naval gun manufactured by the military factory is only 200 rounds.
If you don't use it sparingly, the barrel will be useless every time a battle is fought or even before the battle is completed.
(In the previous article, the diameter of the gun barrel was changed to 30 times. 45 times is too long, and the total length of the gun mount is more than six meters. The smaller the diameter, the longer the life of the artillery. With the existing technology, if the barrel is lengthened, dozens of guns may need to be replaced. barrel)
……
This naval battle, in which the Qing Navy took the initiative to attack, ended with the remaining warships of the Qing Navy hoisting the white flag. Counting the time of the Qing Navy's charge, it was only half an hour.
In this battle, the Qing army was sunk 8 warships, and the remaining 18 warships were also damaged to varying degrees.
The Qing army's 26 warships originally had more than 1400 sailors. By the end of the battle, more than 800 people were still breathing, and one-third of them were wounded.
Of the remaining 600 people, 200 were confirmed dead, and the remaining 400 were all "missing"
On the other hand, the Ming Army's Taishan and Huashan.
In addition to depleting the life of some shells and barrels, the two ships only had one shell carrier slip and hurt his own foot... (Isn't this a bit exaggerated?)
After the battle, when Jia Wenxuan was worrying about how to deal with this group of prisoners, a large sail shadow finally appeared on the sea in the distance.
The Ming army's landing fleet finally arrived.
At the same time, on the Portuguese cruiser that was watching the battle, a group of Portuguese officers and soldiers who were almost frightened by the terrifying firepower of the second Taishan Huashan ship also saw the main force of the Ming army coming.
As a result, they no longer dared to stay any longer and immediately turned towards Macau.
