"Quickly, if you win, you will have meat to eat when you go back!"

On the battleship that was soaring on the sea, Ruan Xiaoqi roared excitedly.

On the deck below him, the drummers were beating the big drum hard. With the sound of the drums, forty long oars on both sides of the slender hull kept rising and falling, like a huge winding storm on the sea. More than a hundred soldiers wearing paper armor were waiting behind the bulwark.

There are paper armor on the water.

This thing has a good protection ability, at least it can block arrows.

I chose this not because of the price. Iron armor is not worth a long time ago in Wang Yue. However, once I wear iron armor on the water, few of them can quickly take it off. I can still swim with two millimeter-thick steel plates on the body. That must be a legendary general. There are either leather armor or paper armor on the water.

The protection ability of paper armor must be greater than that of leather armor.

Of course, the image is just like hanging the Xinhua dictionary, but if you really want to hang the Xinhua dictionary, you may not even be able to penetrate the bird gun.

Under this deck, two paddlers who were rowing hard were sitting opposite each other on both sides of each paddle. They were all slaves, chained on their own paddles, driving the warships like flesh and blood engines until they were exhausted. Of course, if they were not exhausted, they would still be free at the end of the contract period. This is the only thing these slaves of complex sources could imagine, from the time they were sold here, it was to have such a day.

As for whether you can live to that day, it's another matter.

"Quickly, the general said, you will have meat to eat when you win!"

The supervisor shouted in Goryeo with his whip.

Well, this ship is full of Korean slaves, but it is actually slaves themselves, but it originally belonged to the serf owners of Korean...

At this time, except for the Song Dynasty, who were tenants, most of the bottom members of other forces were slaves and serfs.

The Song Dynasty was really the most civilized country of this era. This is a fact. Although the tenants of the Song Dynasty were as miserable, they were really the most civilized in this world that was worse than bad, even if Europe was essentially serfdom at this time.

Those slave traders don’t need to fool the slaves at the bottom of Goryeo. In fact, that is impossible. If the upper class of Goryeo doesn’t nod, they will be hacked to death if they dare to sell slaves, but they can buy them from the serf owners of Goryeo who fool their serfs or simply sell their own slaves.

As long as you have money,

Although Wang Yue had just obtained a large number of Dangxiang prisoners, Ruan Xiaoqi and other naval generals still prefer these contract slaves from Goryeo, as well as Japanese slaves sold by Goryeo from Japan, because these people eat less, are obedient, and even like their work. They really like it. They are happy to be boating slaves here. After all, they lose only freedom, but the possibility of starving to death in their hometown is definitely greater than the possibility of exhaustion here.

They didn’t have time to have enough food in their hometown!

But on board, you can.

As for the whip from the supervisor, that one is not worth mentioning at all.

We do have to be whipped here, but the thugs of the serf-owners and the servants of the government in our hometown are also indispensable. These people have to take away their rations, but after the smoking here, they can drink and eat meat!

Being a slave to the Ming Dynasty is also a kind of happiness!

Well, because of the institutional restrictions of the Song Dynasty, these boat slaves were from the Ming Dynasty, and then they were hired from the Ming Dynasty contractor as the ever-winning army of the Song army.

They belong to labor dispatch.

Ruan Xiaoqi, who was standing high above the forecastle, certainly would not care about the slaves below.

On this forecastle protected by circular wooden walls, he stared at the chaotic bay in front of him, looking at the warships that were sailing up, the soldiers running towards the warships on the dock, and the terrified men scattered on the shore. It was obvious that his raid was very successful and there was no defense here. He had moved from the Daoyu Village in Dengzhou a month ago. As the commander of the naval army of the ever-winning army, he certainly could not sit idly by the Jiangnan Navy to transport it here, but he just didn't care about it before.

In winter, he has to do his best to ensure transportation in Liaodong.

But as Liaodong Bay thawed, those large seacraft with pure sail power could already sail in Niuzhuang, so his fleet was no longer needed.

"The transport ships burning the docks on the left wing, the central army faced the enemy warships, and the right wing landed on the island to capture Zhao Gou alive!"

He said as he looked at the dozens of warships that had completed anchoring in front of him and were coming with the wind.

The messenger behind immediately waved the flag.

His flagship, the same large warship, waved the same flag on each side, and then one turned northeast and headed straight to the dock on the shore, rushing towards those large transport ships that could not have time to raise their sails. The other turned east, avoiding the fleet facing the front, preparing to land on Tang Island behind them, while Ruan Xiaoqi's central army continued to move forward.

A huge fleet of nearly two hundred centipede ships quickly divided into three small fleets, continuing to cut through the waves on the sea.

Ruan Xiaoqi was still staring at him directly in front of him.

There were about 30 Jiangnan warships that first set sail and anchored. These were essentially sailboats, but they used oars, and most of them were eight oars, but because they were breezes, the speed was not slower than those of their centipede ships. These warships were multi-story wooden buildings in the middle, and the wooden buildings were mainly crossbowmen. In fact, they were dominant simply in terms of combat effectiveness because they were much larger and much higher than the centipede ships.

At this time, the water battle is about gang wars.

Large ships against small ships, tall ships against low ships, all of which are hierarchical suppression.

However, it is obvious that Ruan Xiaoqi and his soldiers did not realize this.

"Quick, faster!"

He yelled excitedly.

The rhythm of the war drums was significantly accelerated, and the slaves below were paddling wildly.

The centipede ship continued to increase in speed, with its towering bow plowing waves on the sea, and the eighty centipede ships following the flagship of the Central Army on both sides continued to accelerate.

Thirty Jiangnan warships on the opposite side, which were obviously taller than them, were also speeding up in the wind. The sailors wearing paper armor on the ship were waiting in full swing. Crossbows poked out from behind the guard wall, and soldiers holding lime bottles, torches and even oil tanks were waiting. Once they were helped, they would immediately fall from the sky and use their height advantages to smash the centipede ships and burn them into torches.

This is an inevitable result.

but……

"Turn right!"

Just as he was about to collide with a warship opposite, Ruan Xiaoqi yelled at the copper tube in front of him.

All the oars on his left were lifted up. Under the combined action of the tail rudder and the oar on his right, the centipede ship, which had exceeded eight knots, quickly turned, and then penetrated obliquely towards the enemy ship on the other side.

Then the oar on the left fell.

The battleship moves forward at full speed.

At this moment, all the centipede ships that were originally charging against the enemy ships on the sea, just like their flagships, suddenly turned to the enemy ships on the other side before they were about to hit.

The metallic luster shines under the clear blue waves.

"They have corners!"

Ruan Xiaoqi could even hear the screams from the warship behind him.

Then the old thief smiled proudly, and raised his shield to block the sharp arrows falling above his head while smiling. Amid his laughter, the centipede ship, which was ten feet long, hit the enemy ship that was passing by the wind in front of him. With a huge impact, the underwater iron-clad angle instantly crashed into the latter's hull.

Of course, this is not fatal.

Because the warships of the Song Dynasty all had watertight cabins, and usually had more than eight watertight cabins, they would not be sunk by the angles.

but……

"put!"

Ruan Xiaoqi roared.

More than a dozen bowl-mouth guns on both sides of him spewed out flames at the same time.

Accompanied by the loud noise, countless shotguns swept across the ship tower above their heads. The sailors who had just woken up from the chaos of the impact and were poking their heads out to attack down screamed in close range of shotguns like storms. You should know that both sides are currently next to each other, and the forecastle of the centipede ship is only slightly shorter than the opposite side. Within less than ten meters, more than a dozen bowl-mouthed guns stuffed with shotguns were almost covered in faces, although those shotguns were just iron sand.

But even if a bird plays ten meters of a face, it is terrifying!

What's more, the bowl gun can be stuffed into the dozens of shotguns. In fact, this thing is filled with hundreds of shotguns, and thousands of shotguns instantly hit the opponent intact.

The unlucky Jiangnan Navy soldiers were almost terrified by the flames on their faces, feeling the severe pain from outside the protection range of paper armor. They, who had no fighting will, were completely shocked at this moment. They all screamed and fell to the ground, crawling in the smoke of smoke in chaos, and even jumped down because they were frightened. At this moment, the loud bang of fire from the entire sea surface continued to be heard. On all the centipede ships that used the impact to complete the impact, the bowl-mouthed guns sprayed flames at their opponents. The iron sand that was not fatal but painful swept across the Jiangnan Navy's warships.

Then there is the third round of attacks.

The real and most deadly attack, a decisive blow.

"Back!"

Ruan Xiaoqi yelled at his copper tube.

The centipede ship's oars began to row backwards, and the battleship's angular horn quickly broke away from the impact.

Ruan Xiaoqi stood in the forecastle and looked proudly at the battleship that had been severely damaged in front of him, and then took a porcelain bottle from his subordinates. The latter had a strip of cloth stuffed with a piece of cloth on the bottle, which was obviously soaked in something. Then the subordinate carefully lit the strip of cloth for him, and the flames immediately rose.

He looked at the enemy ship that was away and without hesitation, he smashed the porcelain bottle towards the opposite ship's side.

The porcelain bottle smashed the side of the ship opposite, but at the same time it turned into a ball of explosive flames, and then the side of the ship began to burn.

OK, it's whale oil in it.

"Those who surrender are exempt from death!"

Ruan Xiaoqi yelled at the opposite side.
Chapter completed!
