I want to ruin the country
Chapter 540: Surrender or Annihilation
Some Spanish warships saw the flag signals and rushed forward at full speed.
Some saw that the ship could not move because the steam turbine was damaged.
Some simply didn't get the news because the flag signalers were killed in the explosion!
Deng Yongchang was happy when he saw more than a dozen large and small warships rushing forward. He thought, "Just don't run away!"
He gave the order calmly.
"Order all ships to concentrate their firepower and attack the foremost ship first!"
Boom boom boom boom!
Five shells were fired, and one hit the first ship and exploded in front of the cockpit.
boom!
The entire cockpit was blown away, and the helmsman and the control rudder flew into the sky.
Boom boom boom boom!
Five more shells came, three of which hit the target. One exploded on the deck, one damaged the steam turbine, and the other exploded in the pile of shells on the ship, causing a secondary explosion.
boom!
The huge blast tore the entire ship in two.
Some of the Spanish soldiers on the ship were blown away, and some fell into the sea. Soon the ship sank to the bottom of the water.
Everyone was dancing with joy, and Deng Yongchang also had a look of joy on his face, but he didn't show it too much.
"Give the order, attack the second ship!"
Boom boom boom boom!
Another five shells were fired, and this time three of them hit the target directly, setting the entire ship on fire.
"Concentrate your fire on the third ship!"
……
"Attack the fourth ship!"
Deng Yongchang gave orders one after another. He found that this method was effective and that he could send a ship to the bottom of the sea in just over ten minutes.
More than half an hour later, three Spanish warships finally rushed within ten miles and began to fire.
To be precise, they were firing all the time, but all the shells hit the sea without exception.
This time, a shell from the Andres finally hit the front of the Zhiyuan.
Deng Yongchang was embarrassed. The emperor was on his ship, and the enemy could be within range at a distance of twenty miles. If the emperor was hurt in any way, he would die without mercy!
Deng Yongchang hurriedly ordered,
"Hurry and send the emperor back to the warehouse!"
Yining Road,
"Don't worry about me, just keep bombarding!"
Deng Yongchang was relieved when he saw the emperor's calm demeanor and continued to give orders.
"All ships, concentrate your fire on his flagship and sink it!"
Is Yining afraid? He is afraid in his heart, but he bets that the enemy's artillery shells will fly around him!
Why? It's very simple. If God wanted to kill him, why would he go through the trouble of letting him travel back in time?
You know what, Yining was really confused. From that time on, no shells fell near the Zhiyuan ship.
The Andres ship that rushed over was in a miserable state. In just a short while, its ship was hit by seven or eight shells.
Everyone knows the explosive power of 150mm caliber artillery shells. At this time, a ship may be sunk by being hit by one shell, let alone seven or eight shells.
Fortunately, these shells exploded on the deck, only blowing away the cockpit, and no shells hit the gunpowder magazine, otherwise, the battleship would have been blown to pieces.
Although the ship has not sunk yet, it is unable to move and is drifting in the sea.
The entire ship was ablaze with flames and thick smoke, and Andres was on fire all over.
He screamed "Ahhhhh" and didn't know where to run because his eyes were blinded by the explosion. Soon his skin and flesh were burning and oozing oil. He screamed and rolled on the deck.
"Save me, save me!"
Unfortunately, no one came to save him, and no one cared about saving him because everyone was in trouble!
He wailed on the deck for a long time, and gradually became motionless.
As he lost consciousness, Andres quickly thought of several questions: Who am I? Where am I? Why am I here?
In the end, there was only one feeling left: no pain, it was so comfortable!
Then, his soul floated slowly towards the west!
When the other warships saw that their flagship was destroyed again, they were faced with a dilemma again.
Deng Yongchang didn't give them a chance to think.
"Keep firing!"
Boom boom boom boom boom!
The ships were unable to withstand the simultaneous fire of artillery pieces. Half an hour later, all the dozen or so warships that rushed over were sunk or caught fire.
The Spanish soldiers on the ship who were not killed in the explosion jumped into the water to escape.
There were more than twenty Spanish warships behind that were not damaged or were not seriously damaged.
When they saw that the situation was hopeless, they turned around and ran away. When did the weak Chinese become the devil?
Deng Yongchang reported to Yining,
"Your Majesty, the enemy has been badly defeated. Thirty percent of them have escaped!"
Yining Road,
"Chase, as long as they don't surrender, annihilate them all!"
Deng Yongchang ordered,
"Pursue at full speed, and annihilate them all if they don't surrender!"
Yining Road,
"Order the warships behind to rescue all the Spanish soldiers who fell into the water. Don't kill them!"
"Yes!"
Yining muttered to himself,
"We are short of labor, so short of it!"
Deng Yongchang laughed inwardly, thinking that the emperor was a kind-hearted person, but it turned out that he was thinking of making these prisoners work!
Not bad, just provide the food!
The Zhiyuan ship went at full speed to catch up. Among these ships, it was the fastest, reaching 22 knots.
One knot is one nautical mile, and one nautical mile is 1.852 kilometers.
This translates to approximately 41 kilometers per hour.
The fastest Spanish warships could only run at twelve knots, or about twenty-two kilometers.
At such a speed, not to mention the Zhiyuan, even if the Jingyuan and Zhenyuan, which could only run at 17 or 18 knots, chased them, they would not be able to escape.
Soon, the first Spanish warship was caught up and was only four or five miles away.
There was thick smoke coming out of the warship, and it seemed that it was damaged.
"fire!"
"boom!"
The first shot missed, but before the second shot was fired, the ship raised the white flag!
Deng Yongchang told the flag signal soldiers,
"Let them wait for the warships behind them to surrender, and we will continue chasing them!"
In this way, the Zhiyuan ship took the lead and chased back most of the escaped warships.
The Jingyuan and Zhenyuan ships recovered five or six ships, and it is estimated that three or four more warships escaped.
It was getting dark at this time, Yining said,
"Forget it, don't chase them anymore. Let's clean up the battlefield. The soldiers have been fighting all day and are hungry!"
Deng Yongchang Road,
"Your Majesty, this battle is a joy to fight. Even if we fight for another night, we won't be hungry!"
Yining Road,
"You can't escape them, it's only a matter of time!"
At this moment, many small boats suddenly appeared around.
When Manigul saw the clothes of these people, he was delighted. It turned out that they were soldiers from the Sulu Kingdom.
After the communication, Manigu happily told Yining,
"Your Majesty, our king has sent them to pick us up!"
The Sultan of Sulu finally met the Emperor of China who saved him from danger.
