Chapter 2459: Everyone is tenacious

The Mediterranean Sea, which is surrounded by land on all sides, is indeed a "bath". The wind is weak. Although the South China Fleet has the upper hand, it is not obvious, so that the artillery shells of both sides can fully exert their power, do what they should do, destroy the bulwark, and fight. Broken mast!

The "Sultan" battleship of the South China "Black Warrior" Siresma captured the dazzling 62-gun battleship "San Marco". As the Black Warrior raised his hand, the South China Army opened fire with full force, and the shells were like thunder. It hit the ship of the "San Marco" hard, and after five consecutive rounds of firepower, it was beaten into a dumb fire!

Although the "San Marco" is also a battleship, its small hull is not in the same heavyweight class as the tall "Sultan", and the "San Marco" has a maximum artillery caliber of only 24 pounds, the "Sultan" caliber. It is 32 pounds.

After the "Sultan" shells passed, the open deck of the "San Marco" looked like a wheat field that had been blown by strong winds. On the gun deck, the artillery fell out of place. The sailors fell in a pool of blood, and the cabin was filled with orders. The smell of nausea, blood flowed to the lower cabin, and the state was very miserable.

But when the "Sultan" passed and the "San Marco" greeted the third-tier battleship "Southeast Asia 178" of the South China Fleet (with 76 guns), the artillery on the "San Marco" sounded again!

The white skins removed the collapsed artillery, removed the fallen sailors, moved the artillery from the other side, and fired after loading.

Indomitable, fight to the end!

This is the oath they swear before God. Of course, once they are in trouble, it is normal to swear like a P. After all, they are white skins.

The Spanish battleship "Lucky James" (with 74 guns) engaged in a close artillery battle with the third-tier battleship "Southeast Asia 178" of the South China Fleet, even though the gunners on the "Southeast Asia 178" thought they had shot high. Level---The average rate of fire of artillery is as low as 55 seconds per round, while the average rate of fire of the Spaniards is higher than 105 seconds per round. Almost the Chinese fired two rounds and the white skin could only return one round, but it just couldn’t. Overwhelmed the "Lucky James".

Because Baipi chanted the slogan "Fight for Christ!" on the "Lucky James", one Baipi fell down, and someone immediately took his battle position. Even the carpenters and cooks on the ship participated in the battle. Yes, one of the artillery fired misfire, and immediately transferred the artillery on the other side.

Just where the starboard side of the "Lucky James" was close to the rear, the bulwark there was collapsed, exposing the cabin inside, which was very unfavorable for defense.

However, in this area, Baipi moved the cannon over and over again and again, and then was destroyed by the "Southeast Asia 178" artillery shell, but there was always artillery on that position, and sometimes Baipi moved the cannon. Come here, fire and launch instantly, it was only when they were loaded, and it showed their firm will to fight!

The South China Fleet is a well-trained and powerful fleet, while the level of the White Fleet is uneven. There are first-class navies such as Britain and the Netherlands, and navies such as Spain and Portugal that can be deployed on the scene, as well as those with poor training levels. , The navies of France, the Holy Roman Empire, Sweden, Denmark and Italy, which never ruled the navy.

But no matter which country’s navy, they have shown tenacious beliefs and fear of sacrifice in this war. The battle is in full swing and never retreats. Everyone is a hero!

The British fleet that entered the war for the first time gave people a bright feeling!

The British navy has always come out in large numbers. The former admiral Robert Blake was brave and good at war. Even during the turmoil in the UK, he did not allow any white-skinned country to invade the British sea interests, and he advocated making changes. The big battleships forced the battle line to fight, allowing the British fleet to keep up with the times.

In 1652, the British navy led by Commander Blake Carrot was defeated by the Dutch. Turnip is his own constipation and blames the toilet. The business is not good and the counter is blamed. He said that the reason for the failure was that the captains rushed and killed his own position! I heard that our English apprentices in the East use the battle line to fight, with strict discipline, so that the white-skinned brothers are fighting with their heads. Why don't we try battle line combat?

Indeed, naval battles at that time were like cavalry battles. Warships of about the same size were caught and killed, and there was no discipline at all!

Turnip's complaint was heard by the superior leaders, and he immediately sought experts to formulate battleship combat specifications. From then on, the British fleet entered the battle line combat period.

After Charles II came to the throne, he appointed George Munch as admiral to command the British fleet. Although George Munch was not of naval origin, he had participated in the British Civil War and had extensive combat experience. With high prestige, his rigorous management of the army brought the British fleet to a new level.

By his side are Richard Dean, John Lawson, William Penn, Edward Sprague and other celebrities in concert.

The summit showdown between the flagship "Prince Royal" commanded by George Munch and the flagship Imperial class "02" of the South China Fleet was exceptional. The artillery from both sides fired fiercely against each other, and the artillery came in and fought evenly.

Above the fighting sea area, the flying wood shavings went up hundreds of meters, that’s

The remaining British battleships also put a lot of pressure on the South China fleet, because they also have a rate of fire of one round, DPS is quite terrible, and full of lethality!

In some scenes of battleships bombing, the British even prevailed!

The British second-class battleship "Yorktown" used their fierce shelling to completely utterly temper the South China Fleet "Southeast Asia 234" battleship. Two-thirds of the ship’s crew fell to the ground. The captain was killed, the gunner was killed, and he had to put on the "free-of-war card" to leave the battle line and hobbled towards the island of Malta.

The British bombardment level was first-rate, but the Chinese were unwilling to show weakness and fought back fiercely. The severity of the scene was hard to see in previous naval battles.

The ships of both sides were beaten severely by the other side, and they were beaten to pieces, with pores growing, bulwarks disappeared, and masts broken.

In addition to the smell of gunpowder smoke, there were bursts of blood in the air, which was caused by the excessive bleeding of everyone.

Playing at such a high level, the Chinese people respectfully sigh, "The teacher is the teacher!"

Even if the Spaniards with high eyes were jealous, they had to be convinced. Lilva Don Chatenefer Jr. shook his head and said: "If the British were involved in the first and second Mediterranean sea battles, it would not be Let the pagans ransack the Mediterranean so rampantly."

Then he said viciously: "These God's traitors, Charles II should send them all to hell, or send them to Spain for trial!"

This great battle is the third great battle in the Mediterranean. The two great battles before UU reading www.uukanshu.com, the British did not participate in the excuse of civil strife.

The reason is very complicated. To a certain extent, the British dignitaries who believed in Protestantism were not the Spaniards who believed in Catholicism.

Many Protestants in the United Kingdom once sent the old (Catholic) King Charles I to the guillotine. After his son Charles II was restored, he did not kill many people and did not make a big liquidation. Those former Protestant dignitaries They are at best left unused.

He was not in a hurry, but the Spaniards couldn't see it, and wanted to help Charles II slaughter the rebellious Protestants and reimburse them all!

The guns roared and the fighting was raging. At noon, the navies on both sides ate biscuits and bacon as a drink. After filling their stomachs, they went into the battle again.

The main reason you didn't defeat the enemy was that your liver was not enough. As long as the liver didn't die, then continue to live.

However, after two o'clock in the afternoon, the fighting situation became divided, and some people could not support it...
