It happened to hit the mizzenmast of this dilapidated ship, and accompanied by a loud noise, the mast, which was at least a few inches thick, was directly twisted by the chain bullet, and sawdust flew across.

Then, amidst a creaking sound, it began to tilt slowly, and finally the mast, which was a few meters higher than the ship, fell slowly and fell into the sea under everyone's gaze.

Although the shelling had passed, the target ship was still shaking from side to side, and the hull made an unpleasant creaking sound as it was a little overwhelmed.

Everyone was silent, but that general Wu Zhonglang's eyes were frozen at this moment, not just him.

Almost all the visitors standing on the deck are like a stone statue of a respected husband, standing on the deck blankly.

This is just the effect of a salvo on the first deck of the No. 1 gunboat, which caused those old and broken ships to suffer huge damage.

But what Wu Zhonglang cared about the most was the terrible destructive power brought by this kind of chain bomb, after the shell flew out.

It split into two hemispheres, and there was an iron chain in the middle, which made the chain bullets spin crazily as they flew towards the target ship.

Look at the railings of the target ship's side that were swept into debris, and the mast that was strangled.

In ordinary naval battles, there will inevitably be a large number of sailors and sailors on the deck. If there are people standing on the deck of the target ship, it is likely that a large area will be wiped out by the extremely destructive chain bullets at this moment.

Fang Jun, a good brother who gave up writing for martial arts, couldn't help exclaiming in such a way.

"Goose, be good, Brother Chu Bi, why is this cannon so terrible, if there is a big living person standing there, it must be broken in two at this moment."

Wu Zhonglang over there, his face flushed with excitement, hurried to Cheng Sanlang and saluted loudly.

"Xiao Cheng Taibao, the power of this artillery is far better than all the weapons of our Datang Navy. How about the destructive power of the other types of ammunition?"

I saw the distorted and distorted faces of General Wu Zhonglang and other navy generals.

The effect of this round of shelling finally did not exceed his expectations, and the effect was even surprisingly good.

Cheng Chubi, who was in an extraordinarily happy mood at the moment, chuckled, nodded and replied.

"Don't worry, General Wu, let's take our time... After all, we are testing now. I also ask General Wu to let them move this gunship forward by about 20 feet. Cheng wants to try grape bullets again."

"No!" Wu Zhonglang did not hesitate to carry out the order this time.

As expected of the elite navy of the Tang Dynasty, the huge building ship, under the operation of these skilled elite navy, slowly approached the No. 1 target ship by a distance of about 20 feet.

"Second-floor emplacement, angle 15, loaded with grape shells..."

At this moment, everyone's attention was already attracted by the gunboat and the target ship, and no one noticed that a group of people rushed to the pier at this moment, and the leader was Shi Liji, the head of Qingzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

And Li Ji finally waited for a walking boat, which is a kind of fast boat that is paddled.

After Li Ji and several generals jumped onto the walking boat, they urged the walking boat to head towards the shooting range.

At this moment, there was another series of loud noises like thunder, which made Li Ji even more anxious, these bastards.

They actually dragged the cannon to the warship to play, why didn't they notify the old man in advance, so that the old man can rub it, cough, let the old man give them a little bit.

At this moment, accompanied by a huge roar, the moment the mother bullet was released from the chamber, it had already spread out, splitting into dozens of bullets the size of chicken eggs, and spraying towards the front.

Under the salvo of the five artillery pieces, hundreds of chicken-sized bullets formed a terrifying barrage and hit the target ship.

Small holes appeared one after another on the hull of the target ship, and even the sails were punched out one by one.

The hull of this old target ship was shaking endlessly, just like the rustling leaves under the blow of the storm.

The No. 1 target ship, which was repeatedly ravaged like this, began to sink slowly as the damaged ship's side poured into the sea.

Looking at this scene, the observers were in an uproar. Li Jingren pointed forward and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"If a person is hit by a bullet, wouldn't it be death or disability?"

"Hey, a volley of five cannons will make it look like this. If three gunboats fire a volley, will there be any living people on that ship?"

"Brother Chu Bi, the power of this cannon is too cruel to be used in water battles like this..."

Li Ke kept shaking his head for a long time before he found a less derogatory adjective.

"What is this? If it is on land, a flying thunder cannon can directly shatter the target ship into pieces."

Cheng Chubi curled his lips and shook his head with some regret.

This artillery battle at sea is incomparable to a land battle after all. The power of the artillery is actually very difficult to play a role unless the enemy ships gather together.

Just like the powerful artillery of the Flying Thunder Cannon, unless it can be accurately shot down on the opponent's warship on a bumpy sea, or it is next to the battleship, it is difficult to cause damage to the enemy's warship or the people on board. Huge damage.

#####

The bragging and farting is not over here, and the No. 1 target ship may feel that it has suffered too much humiliation, and the speed of sinking is getting faster and faster.

It didn't take long for the entire ship to sink into the sea. At this time, Li Ji, the governor of Qingzhou, finally boarded the No. 1 gunboat.

Just saw the stubborn mast, like a straight middle finger.

A group of Wu Xun's disciples and the generals of the Dengzhou Navy were all surprised and hurried forward to greet Li Ji who suddenly appeared here.

Li Ji's eyes fell on Cheng Sanlang.

"You boy, how dare you do such a foolish thing here, remodel my Tang's battleship into such a random appearance~lightnovelpub.net~ and don't even say hello to the old man."

"Even if you don't drive, but don't forget, this old man is still your elder."

Seeing this elder who seemed very resentful when he came, Cheng Chubi had no choice but to give in quickly.

"What uncle said, my nephew is not disrespectful to you at all. It's just that my nephew doesn't know if he can succeed in this matter, so I want to try my hand first."

"If it doesn't work, it's just like a joke. Maybe you still think that my nephew is messing around."

"You have a lot of reasons, kid, hmph... go on, the old man also wants to see how powerful this cannon can be on board."

"Hey hey, since uncle wants to see it, then my nephew will show you a ruthless uncle. General Wu, please let the three gunboats move towards the second target ship, and then form a horizontal formation."

"Satisfied, tell the three warships to use all the artillery positions, replace them with explosive ammunition, and fire at the No. 2 target ship."

"promise!"
