Deng Hailong's ship began to slow down when it was approaching and about five miles away from the Holy See fleet.

"Send the order..." Deng Hailong was just about to give the order, and the adjutant said: "Sir, there is a telegram. Lord Bai means to move forward and not fire the cannon. Or change his ship to come, he has a plan and hopes to try it."

"Ask him what plans are there." Deng Hailong picked up the telescope and looked at the ship in the distance.

From an angle, those wooden boats could shoot parabolic shells and have the chance to land on the deck of the ship. The closer the distance was, the more they could not hit the deck of the ship at a straight line.

Deng Hailong gestured at the angle of his ship again, thinking that he could probably hit the chimney.

Soon, several telegrams were sent, and Deng Hailong smiled as he looked at it: "This white-famous crane is really not a good person. However, this time, I will follow his plan. I also want to see how strong this ship is."

"Tell me that the gunners on the deck are ready to face shelling, and the warehouses are ready to face shelling."

A ship challenged a fleet all day?

Facing the arrival of Deng Hailong, the Holy See's fleet began to slowly disperse to both sides.

Baiminghe's ship and the Chinese Emperor's ship were slower in the distance, and they were almost ready to stop twenty miles away. Unlike Deng Hailong's order, Baiminghe ordered: "Every gunners are ready, and they will be fired when they meet close."

If Bai Minghe was considering protecting the safety of the Chinese Emperor Zhu Qiyu, then the emperor had fun on his own. He left the captain's room and walked to the main cannon and asked the cannon leader: "I heard that this cannon can be hit fifty miles?"

"Long live, I have tried the cannon. If the lethality is not good for more than thirty miles, the shells can fly to fifty miles. Flying over will not hurt the other party. So our calligraphy says, twenty-seven miles." The cannon leader bowed and answered.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the cannon. The thickness of the cannon was five inches and the length was about ten to three meters.

Let’s look at the shells, which are more than two feet long, and are of high quality copper shells.

Just now, when he heard the sound of cannons in the distance, Zhu Qiyu held the telescope and looked into the distance.

At this time, the gunner on Deng Hailong's ship was shouting: "Remember, when I went out to sea, I set up such a formation. Let the Japanese enter the two sides, and the guns were fired from both sides, and the Japanese ships were dispersed in a few strokes."

"This time, we were beaten." A sailor was a little nervous and grabbed his hands tightly on the handrail.

"You have a little bit of courage."

After saying that, the gunner went out of the cover position and walked towards the side of the ship, then stood on the side of the ship, lit a cigar for himself, and looked at the wooden boats at close range.

One and a half miles away, two of the Holy See's warships rushed towards the vicinity, using the tactic of sailing, heading towards the front and approaching quickly. Pull the distance to about 200 steps, and then fire with all your might on one side.

The dense sound of cannons hit the hull of Deng Hailong's ship.

"Come again, walk slowly and don't send me off!" The gunner stood on the side of the ship and shouted, biting a cigar on his mouth and laughing loudly. After the two gunboats were far away, he climbed down to look at the hull.

The hull of this ship is half an inch thick, but the important part of the outside contains high carbon steel armor, and pig iron armor is used in the rest. It can be clearly seen that several small pits appeared on several armor plates.

The stone bullet hits pig iron armor with a thickness of three and a half inches, and with the original gunpowder, there is no need to consider its damage value. Not to mention armor, there is no armor. Just the thickness of the hull, it can be broken by this stone bullet, leaving at most small pits on the hull.

Standing on the side of the ship, the gunner shouted: "Report, the shallow pit as big as a palm of the armor plate is not broken!"

Someone reported it layer by layer.

Deng Hailong listened expressionlessly. When the two ships approached, he knew the level of the other party's artillery and had never worried about his ship. After listening to the report, he ordered: "Speed ​​up by 10% and prepare to approach the port."

"Sir, do you want the Marines to prepare?"

"No, don't get too close to the ship, observe whether there are shore-defense heavy artillery. If so, order the gunners to prepare."

Deng Hailong was not worried about the small cannon on the ship, but he had to be careful of the heavy cannons on the shore, especially at high places, which would cause damage to the ship directly onto the deck.

On the other side, Zhu Qiyu put down his telescope: "I let the other party shoot a few shots for free. I ordered him to return the gift."

"Long live, I didn't say that our ship was going to fire!"

"My words are useless? Take a shot from the densely packed place of the boat and show my might. I will watch it here." Zhu Qiyu's face sank, and the cannon leader quickly went to prepare.

He ran back to the gun position and said to the deputy gunner: "Hurry up, bring the tin copper shell. If this cannon is empty, who can afford to be punished?" Several deputy gunners immediately went to prepare. The expensive shells were brought in, and this shot was 200 taels of silver. It hurts the person!

It is about fifteen miles away now, and it lowers the artillery and aims at the most densely packed position of the Holy See fleet.

The cannon leader didn't believe that his luck would be so bad. The shells could fly over the middle of the dense fleet, and he accepted his fate after being blamed for the stick.

The muzzle was lowered, and the gunman used a cannon to trace it with a telescope, and then reported the data. A deputy gunner was calculating there with an abacus. Zhu Qiyu looked back and didn't understand. Wei Shaoqing said: "Long live, do you still remember that Lord Bai won with his bow technique in Zhuozhou."

"I remember that he was able to calculate the landing point of the shell."

"Those gunners are also calculating. Long live your request for a shot, and they will naturally be careful. I heard that they usually fire one shot and try the position first, and then correct the ballistics according to the position of the first shot. This is only one shot. With the knowledge of the slave, the difficulty should be very large, and the distance is so far."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, knowing that the fireworks are a little bit short of apart, and it can be a little bit short of apart if you fly over.

Finally, the cannon leader pulled the hammer hard, and a deafening sound alarmed everyone. Deng Hailong's ship could hear the cannon. He quickly left the captain's room, but saw that there was still smoke dissipated on the hull of the Yuewang Wumu more than ten miles away.

In the blink of an eye, two miles away from Deng Hailong's left, a boat was beaten to the opposite end, and then swept away the head of the second ship, exploded in the middle of the third ship, and the flames soared into the sky, and the ship was instantly blown to pieces, not in two halves, but directly shattered.

The first ship also damaged the main body due to its powerful impact, and the holes on the side of the ship were gushing into the ship.

It was slowly sinking.

"This shell is not designed well. If the impact force is small, it will not explode. This needs to be changed. If the other party only has a boat and is not hit in an important position and passes through it directly, isn't this shell a waste?"

Bai Minghe said to the first mate beside him.

"Sir, they used No. 1 shells, probably to get the liking of Long Live. We also have them on the ship, but when we were preparing for the war, each gun position on the deck had only two No. 3 shells, and even No. 2 was not used, so the shells could not be used once a year. It looked pretty good."

It's not just good. A wooden boat equivalent to 400 tons in later generations turned into pieces of broken wood.

Deng Hailong on the ship ahead also ordered: "Telection: No. 1, No. 2 main gun, tail main gun. Each of them is three shots. You must hit the city of Rome. If anyone fails to hit, go to wash the toilet. No. 1 shell is not allowed, use incendiary bombs, or bone-eroding ghost fire incendiary bombs!"

"Get the order!" The deputy general hurried down to pass the order.

When he was one mile away from the Roman port, Deng Hailong completely ignored the surrounding warships and his hull came across.

The Holy See's fleet was already silly. At that distance, the power of the shot was too terrifying. They didn't believe that there were no such powerful cannons on this ship right now.

While they were in a daze, Deng Hailong's ship was launching three guns and three rounds of gunfire.

The other ordinary artillery was not used at all, and the range was too close and could only hit the port. This was not what Deng Hailong needed.

Nine shells, eight points around the city of Rome, burned a raging fire, and the last one was directly blown up in the center of Rome, turning a church into a sea of ​​fire.

"The Demon in Hell." The Pope stood in the cathedral and cursed.

From the sea, the entire city of Rome was directly included in the range. The burning fire could not be extinguished with water. Any flame stuck to the body and even the flesh was burning. What is this the fire of hell?

"Listen to the people of Rome, with the church where the Pope is located, a hundred miles away. We give you two chances to live, because our great peace is kind and will give everyone a chance to survive, but you need to make a sacrifice, and, in the same way, will give you a chance to choose."

The huge trumpet was holding words in Greek.

It must not be spread to Rome, but if people from the port can hear it, I believe it will definitely be spread to it.

"The first chance to survive is Gallies III. Take all your archbishops in the clothes of the cardinal kneeling at the feet of my Chinese Emperor and the noble Byzantine Emperor and repent your sins. The people of the Roman city will definitely survive, and our great Chinese Emperor will give the Roman people a chance to survive."

"The second chance to survive, the people of Rome, if the Pope is unwilling to protect you and confess. The people will start to calculate the archbishops under the Pope, and the ninety-nine priests are placed on the stake, and then our emperor will believe it, your hearts are willing to confess and give you life."

"The deadline is tomorrow when sunrise. Either the Pope kneels on this pier, or there are ninety-nine burning flames on the stake. Or the entire Rome turns into a sea of ​​fire. The fire of the gods that cannot be extinguished with water."

After the caller finished reading, he shivered.

But another piece of paper was sent from it, asking him to continue.

"To emphasize, if you want to escape, once you discover it, you will directly turn the city of Rome into a sea of ​​fire, and any city will accept you, and the entire city will be burned out."

After speaking, the boat fired again.

Three shells turned a duke's castle into a sea of ​​fire to the west of Rome. (To be continued, please search for Piao Tianyi, the novel is better, updated and faster!
