The soldiers guarding the warship widened their eyes in shock, their eyes full of disbelief.
The emperor said that this ship is not called a warship, but a battleship, which sounds more exciting.
At first, when they looked at such a smooth and beautiful warship, their first feeling was a little worried. They wondered if such a good warship was just an embroidered pillow.
Unexpectedly, loud noises were heard one after another from the warship.
On the first day, they only heard the sound of "bang bang bang" coming from the warship, which lasted for a whole day before stopping.
On the second day, there were occasional "bang bang" sounds, and on the third day, something was seen rushing out of the battleship, and then exploded on the sea with a loud bang.
Just now they saw something rushing out from the warship, and the fishing boat swaying on the sea was blown to pieces.
If there was anyone on that fishing boat, he would have been blown to pieces.
The soldiers looked at the warship with shining eyes, and were extremely curious.
After firing the cannon, Xiao Guoliang walked out with a grin on his face. He looked at the broken wood floating on the sea and couldn't stop laughing.
"Okay, okay! Very good!"
He finally figured out how to fire artillery.
He and Bai Hong have not left the warship these days.
Wow, things on a battleship are really complicated.
The two of them studied for several days, and all they knew was how to use a pistol and fire a cannon.
Other things make their heads hurt, and driving a warship is even more difficult for them.
There were so many buttons in the cab that they had no idea where to start.
These can only wait for the second child to come and study them carefully. The second child has been interested in various drawings since he was a child, and he is best at looking at these things.
However, after seeing the power of the pistol, the two of them did not dare to leave the battleship.
The number of guards around the warship was also tripled, with three shifts taking turns guarding and preventing anyone from approaching.
They are so ferocious just by developing pistols and cannons. Who knows how powerful torpedoes and naval guns are.
If it falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, the harm will be enormous.
"Old White, I'm going to row another fishing boat out to the sea, a little further away."
Xiao Guoliang held onto the railing with both hands, looking at the sea with excitement.
"This time it's your turn to aim and shoot."
"Okay!" Bai Hong agreed immediately. "Once we are all proficient, we can defeat every Japanese ship that comes our way, even if there are ten Japanese ships, we can defeat ten of them."
"Beat them until they cry for their parents, haha!!"
Xiao Guoliang also laughed, "Hey, why are there no signs of movement from the Japanese ship these past two days?"
"Maybe the noise from our artillery test was too loud and scared them away."
Bai Hong sneered,
"We can't hear them from such a distance, who knows what they are up to."
"Anyway, there are soldiers guarding this coastline. No matter when they come, we can beat them to a pulp."
Ten thousand catapults were lined up on the beach, and a sufficient supply of evenly sized stones was available.
These days the soldiers have been carrying stones non-stop, waiting for the Japanese ships to arrive.
Not to mention that they were waiting anxiously, the soldiers were also waiting anxiously.
Xiao Guoliang snorted indifferently, "Let's practice our own thing. You wait, I'll go rowing."
Bai Hong watched as Xiao Guoliang and his soldiers rowed two fishing boats out to sea.
Seeing the fishing boat going farther and farther away, he suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Bai Hong frowned, picked up the telescope and looked out at the sea.
Seeing this, his pupils instantly dilated and he shouted at Xiao Guoliang at the top of his voice,
"Come back quickly, the Japanese ship is coming, come back!!!"
"Xiao Guoliang!! Come back!!"
Bai Hong shouted anxiously several times at the top of his voice.
Xiao Guoliang stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the soldiers rowing the boat, frowning and looking back.
"Tsk, did you hear any sound?"
The sea breeze whistled in his ears, and he seemed to vaguely hear someone shouting.
Looking back at Bai Hong, who was as small as a bird and standing on the warship, Xiao Guoliang smiled.
The battleship is really tall and big.
The soldiers rowing hard shook their heads and said, "We didn't hear anything."
All they could hear was the sound of the waves, and they couldn't hear anyone talking at all.
They could only vaguely hear the voice of the retired emperor.
It's strange. They were rowing out to sea an hour ago and the wind and waves were not so strong. Why are the wind and waves so strong now?
Experienced fishermen looked at today's weather and found that there would be no severe weather with strong winds and waves.
Xiao Guoliang held onto the railing, frowning as he watched the waves that almost hit the boat several times.
The wind and waves are so strong, and the fishing boat is parked far away, so throwing down the anchor is probably of no use.
At this moment, Xiao Guoliang felt that people were really insignificant in front of the sea.
The sound of wind and waves in his ears made him unconsciously feel a little fear in his heart.
He raised his hand to wipe the sea water off his forehead, reached out and touched the pistol in his arms, and felt a little more at ease.
Bai Hong felt his heart aching as he watched Xiao Guoliang running farther and farther away, and the Japanese warships getting closer and closer to Xiao Guoliang in the distance.
"Come on, hurry up and row the boat to bring back the emperor."
"Soldiers, get ready! The Japanese warships are coming!"
"Crossbows, catapults, everything is ready."
Bai Hong instructed the soldiers guarding the warship,
"All soldiers, do not act without my order!"
After giving the order, Bai Hong ran directly to the machine that fired the artillery.
He picked up the instruction manual next to the machine and quickly scanned it.
Bai Hong licked his lips, calmed himself down, adjusted the launcher, and aimed at the Japanese warships in the distance.
The Japanese warships were seven or eight times larger than Xiao Guoliang's fishing boats. From a distance, the fishing boats could no longer be seen clearly.
Bai Hong took a deep breath and adjusted the launch direction.
He adjusted the muzzle of the gun to the left side of Xiao Guoliang's fishing boat.
After adjusting the shooting distance, Bai Hong made up his mind and fired directly.
With a loud "boom".
A shell flew towards Xiao Guoliang about two hundred meters to his left.
Xiao Guoliang, who knew nothing about this, was still wondering why the waves were getting bigger and bigger when the wind was not very strong.
The waves hit the fishing boat again and again. If it happens a few more times, the boat will be filled with water and sink.
Xiao Guoliang rolled up his sleeves and scooped water out of the boat with a wooden basin. "Hurry up and scoop out the water first. Stop rowing."
Why bother rowing now? The boat is about to sink. The most important thing is to save the boat and scoop out water.
Xiao Guoliang frowned tightly, looked at the two small fishing boats swaying in the waves, and decided to return.
The waves are so dense that it is difficult for fishing boats to stay on the sea.
At this moment, the soldier standing at the bow shouted in fear.
“It’s the enemy!!!”
"Oh no! The enemy ship is coming! Row back quickly!"
