Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

Move the time forward a few minutes.

Wang Hongchang and Liu Yuxi in the Qinhuang found that there was a large island in front of their own fleet. Behind Chicheng and Chokai, Wang Hongchang was not polite and directly ordered the gunnery commander to load the Qinhuang's main gun.

The 340 kilograms of ammunition were loaded into the gun barrel by the sailors using a crane.

Then he closed the bolt door and stuffed the primer into the bolt door.

Due to the special turret layout of the Qinhuang, when the warship is facing the target, it can also have three turrets and six main guns attacking at the same time.

"The target is ten nautical miles! Dongfeng Level [-]! One shot is loaded!" The observer glanced at the weathervane next to him and shouted loudly.

The gunnery commander on the side heard the observer's report, and his raised arm suddenly waved down: "Let go!"

"boom!"

The main gun located at the bow of the ship immediately made a deafening roar.

Two huge cannonballs, accompanied by flames, hit the Oshima ten nautical miles away at extremely high speed.

Ten seconds later, two large water pillars rose around the Oshima.

"Left left, near miss!" The observer saw the rising water column and immediately reported the result of the first shot to the gunner.

After hearing the observer's report, the gunners of the main gun once again began to adjust the parameters.

After fine-tuning, two more 340-kilogram shells were stuffed into the barrel.

"Calibrate the parameters and fire the six main guns directly in front!"

"put!"

After the gunnery commander shouted the "fire" command for the second time, this time it was the main gun of the Qinhuang that was facing forward and opened fire one after another.

A total of six heavy shells crossed a distance of ten nautical miles and hit the Oshima again.

The Qinhuang's shells had just fired, and the Hanzu next to it also opened fire.

A total of more than a dozen shells flew out, and the rising water column almost submerged the Oshima.

At this time, inside the Oshima, Captain Koizumi was in panic.

More than 700 kilograms of shells exploded in the sea, causing huge waves that were enough to cause huge damage to this small ship of only [-] tons.

At this time, Koizumi felt like a small boat in the huge waves, with the risk of sinking at any time.

"Baga! Where did Daxia get the battleship? It's really terrifying!"

"Tell the chief engineer to increase the power and transfer! Otherwise today will be the end of us!" Koizumi yelled at the first officer.

He doesn't want to die here!

The first officer heard what Koizumi said. Before he could answer Koizumi, he heard the terrified voice of the chief engineer coming from the microphone in the cab.

"Report Captain! The Oshima's engine has been severely damaged and is now unable to provide power!"

"Baga!" Xiaoquan's whole body went numb when he heard the words of the engine chief.

What does it mean when the house leaks and it rains all night? This is it!

Facing the attacks from Qinhuang and Hanzu, Dadao had no ability to resist. All he could do was escape.

However, although the wave of near-misses just now did not directly hit the Oshima, it also caused serious damage to the Oshima.

In naval battles, damage is not only caused by hitting the target.

The same goes for near-misses.

Near-miss means exploding around the target. The larger the caliber of the shell, the wider the range defined by near-miss.

For example, the Qinhuang's 305-caliber main gun has a near-missile definition of at least a hundred meters.

As long as it is within this range, it can pose a threat to enemy ships.

Moreover, Sakura Kingdom's warships generally have extremely thin armor, not to mention that gunboats like the Oshima, which were converted from merchant ships, can almost be said to have no armor protection.

A near miss within a hundred meters range is enough to cause very serious damage to the Oshima.

"Captain, what should we do now!" The first mate also looked worried when he heard the chief engineer say that the Oshima had lost power.

"Bagaya! I, Koizumi Jiro, must not die here!"

"Quick, raise the white flag, we surrender!" Koizumi Jiro looked at the Qinhuang in the distance and said through gritted teeth.

"Wha, what? Surrender? Your Excellency!" The first mate wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Jiro Koizumi.

"Get out! Do you want to die here!" Xiaoquan shouted loudly.

Hearing Koizumi's roar, the adjutant reacted at this time.

Indeed, the Oshima is now at the end of its rope. Due to damage to the engine, Oshima can only continue to move forward with inertia. There is no way to turn or use the turret to fight back.

Because without the assistance of the engine, it is very difficult to rotate the turret.

Moreover, the Oshima only has a 152mm main gun, so even if it fires back, it will have no effect.

The first officer reacted and immediately began to carry out Ichiro Koizumi's orders.

Soon a white flag was raised before the third round of bombardment began.

"Report! The enemy ship Oshima raises the white flag!"

The moment the white flag of the Da Dao was raised, it was discovered by the observers in the Qinhuang and immediately reported it to Wang Hongchang.

"Send a signal to the Oshima and ask them to shut down and stop!"

"Order all ships to cross the Oshima and continue to attack the Chicheng and Chokai!" Wang Hongchang immediately issued the latest order after hearing the observer's report.

Liu Yuxi, the captain of the Qinhuang on the side, also smiled slightly when he heard Wang Hongchang's words.

"According to the intelligence, the captain of the Oshima is from Osaka?"

"Originally, I thought it was rumored that Osaka people are a bunch of guys who are greedy for life and afraid of death. I still didn't believe it. Now it seems that the fighting will of these Osaka people is indeed not high."

"But didn't you say before that you don't need prisoners? Why do you agree to the surrender of the Oshima now?"

After hearing Liu Yuxi's words, Wang Hongchang turned around and smiled at him.

"Isn't this our impromptu plan to attack Yizhou Island? We know too little information about Yizhou Island."

"So, it wouldn't be bad if we could capture a prisoner and ask about the situation."

"So you had the big idea." Liu Yuxi nodded when he heard Wang Hongchang's words.

Indeed, they now know too little about the internal situation of Yizhou Island. Previously, their attention was focused on the Goryeo region.

Now that we have an impromptu plan to attack Yizhou Island, we really need someone who understands the internal situation of Yizhou Island.

Thinking of this, Liu Yuxi didn't say anything more and turned his attention to the battle situation again.

I don’t know if Wang Hongchang and the others’ bad luck has passed. The previous two rounds of shelling on the Oshima were near-misses.

As for the Akagi, the first round of bombardment achieved results.

The Qinhuang was also the Hanzu. A total of twelve main guns fired a total of 12 shells in one round, two of which directly hit the target. Then, the Akagi turned into a pile of debris in front of everyone's eyes.

Two 305-caliber main guns, one hit the bridge of the Akagi and the other hit the ammunition room.

The Akagi's armor, which only had more than [-] millimeters of armor, could not stop the Qinhuang's main gun attack.

Seeing the sinking of the Akagi, the Qinhuang and the Hanzu immediately turned their guns and locked the Chokai.

There were two more rounds of bombardment, and the Chokai also followed the Akagi to meet their Amaterasu.
