By the way, why did Yi Yun suddenly appear on the sea?

It turned out that once Yiyun's arsenal system started to operate, he took time out all the iron and copper in the three provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan. His skills consumed iron too quickly. For the old weapons in the past, take the most iron-consuming armor as an example. It only takes more than 30 kilograms of iron to build a full-body fish scale armor, but Yiyun used more than ten tons of iron to build a large personnel carrier.

In general, this era is very iron-deficient, because the mining industry has not yet developed on a large scale. Yiyun has used up all the iron in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan provinces, and has not built a mechanized unit that suits his wishes. It can only be regarded as arming a small unit.

In the end, he had to find a way to solve the resource problem first, and first used the "home arsenal" to create a mining and iron-smelting production line in Wushan Oasis, Chongqing. According to later scientists, Wushan had a reserve of 100 million tons of hematite ore. Yi Yun probably dug these iron ore, which would be enough to beat the Cute Niang Knights. However, before all these irons were dug out and turned into weapons, he had to drag the offensive of the Westerners and the Qing Tartars, and he had to return to Shanghai Oasis to take charge.

He first built a mechanized transport fleet to ensure smooth transportation between Chongqing and Shanghai, and then transported a large amount of resources to Shanghai Oasis and built this multi-turret party heavy cruiser at Wusong Wharf. Although there is only one, the displacement of this heavy cruiser reached more than 10,000 tons. For this era, it cannot be considered a cruiser, but it must be considered a super giant warship.

Yi Yun rode this heavy cruiser to sea today, with the intention of trial sailing, and wanted to see if the missing Zhu Qingqing could be found on the sea surface. Unexpectedly, after a few rounds, the radar actually found the Red Beard, so the battle in the previous chapter took place.

After a few shots, the Red Bearded Fleet was already stunned. Yi Yun pointed to the Red Bearded Fleet and laughed wildly: "Wow, these stupid birds are amazing with cannons? My brother has evolved a giant cannon with a caliber of 340mm. If it weren't for the lack of iron, he could only build a 20,000 ton-class boat. I would have built a 40,000-ton Yamato and used a 400-mm-caliber monster cannon to knock you into a slag."

Li Huamei, who was standing beside Yi Yun, smiled. She had been taught by Yi Yun how to manipulate this new type of warship with the "infectiousness of the home". The female soldiers on the ship were also picked out by Yi Yun from the servants. The person in charge of the 340mm main gun was naturally the leftover female artillery girl, and the whole ship was full of old horses.

The remaining female artillery bombed several cannons with an electronic aiming instrument. The hit rate was much higher than before, and she couldn't help but shouted excitedly: "Prince, this kind of cannon is really useful, hahaha! My ability to shoot cannons has reached a higher level."

She has indeed gone to the next level. The characteristic of the science and technology profession is that it will change with the changes of all weapons. The remaining female artillery used to be a third-level "cannon artillery", but now it has become a fourth-level "howiter". She used an electronic aiming instrument to casually aim her gun barrel at the Redbeard's flagship.

Yi Yun quickly said: "Save the flagship and don't blow it away. Let's see if we can catch any beautiful things on the flagship opposite."

The remaining female artillery pouted: "Don't catch the beauty, there is a big beauty here, you don't want it." After that, her hand pressed the launch button. With a loud bang, the two escort ships of the Red Beard Pirates turned into fireballs again.

"Prince! The other party is trying to drive towards our ship, trying to get closer and use their 50mm caliber to hit us." Li Huamei smiled and said, "Do you want to throw them away at a speed of 20 knots and shoot them while keeping the distance?"

Yi Yun waved his hand and said, "Don't be so ruthless. If the enemy's confidence is gone, it will be unfavorable to international unity and let them get closer. Let's just try other secondary guns. We have been using the 340mm caliber main gun just now, but the secondary guns have no chance to use them."

"Okay." Li Huamei smiled: "I also want to try the power of the 120mm caliber secondary gun that can be fired continuously."

The Red Beard's fleet had been overturned by Yi Yun's main gun, but the pirates' fighting spirit remained unabated. After all, the enemy had only one ship. They thought that if they could get close, with the cannons of their dozens of warships, the big black iron ship would undoubtedly die. Red Beard had reason to think that an iron ship could not be faster than their wooden ships.

Sure enough, the speed of the large iron ship was very fast just now, but now it has slowed down, as if it was turning around on the sea with difficulty.

Red Beard laughed and said, "This giant iron ship has no sails, it must be rowing by manpower. Now the people who row the boat have no strength."

The adjutant Andrew and the ** division Blackhart were both sweating: "Captain, your idea is a bit unreliable."

The red beard hummed, "It's about to enter the five-mile range. Please pay attention to each ship, arrange the battle lines and seize the T-shaped position."

In the battleship of the Big Cute, Yi Yun looked at the Red Bearded Fleet and set up the formation, and his stomach was sore: "Oh, they are actually grabbing the T-shaped position, and they are setting up the battle line, hahaha. Pass my order, 120mm caliber rapid-fire cannon is ready!"

Ten pits immediately appeared on the deck of the Dameng, and ten 120mm caliber secondary guns rose from the pit and appeared on the deck. Red Beard opposite immediately saw this change and snorted coldly: "A mere ten cannons are not as many as mine. I have 50 cannons on this ship, and the firepower on one side reaches 26. With more than ten marching ships, I can make two hundred cannons and fire together. The black iron ship is just like this..."

The European pirates began to load nervously. They put large black iron balls into the cannon chamber, then stuffed gunpowder, and aimed nervously. Since the Industrial Revolution, their ships have been replaced with the latest cannons, but these cannons have not been put into actual combat, so the pirates were also very nervous. They were fully immersed in waiting for the moment when the enemy entered the range.

But before the five nautical miles were entered, the enemy's deputy cannon fired again!

Ten 120mm caliber and howitzers roared at the same time, and the three pirate ships instantly turned into fireballs.

Red beard had red eyes and shouted: "Run forward, and rush a little more, it's our turn to fight back... The opposite cannon needs time to load after it is fired, and this is our chance..."

Before he could finish his speech, the enemy's deputy cannon fired again...

It turned out that Yi Yunjun's 120mm howitzer uses a bullet supply chain system. Simply put, it is not much different from the bullet chain of a machine gun. He fires one after another, and it continues to be full of life. This is a continuous-fired cannon.

"Boom boom boom boom boom!"

Two more pirate ships turned into fireballs.

The red beard's eyes widened, like two big bells: "This is impossible, I **, this is absolutely impossible, fuck it, keep rushing forward and rushing for me..."

At this time, Yi Yun on the big cute zombie got into a monster again. He smiled and said, "Architecturers, deliberately slow down the pace and let the Red Beard approach."

Li Huamei said: "Ah? Prince, if you do this, they will be able to fight back against us soon."

"Let them fight back." Yi Yun smiled and said, "We have to try our own armor, right? Armor with an average thickness of 100 mm will not come in handy, they will cry."

Li Huamei Khan: "I have never heard of any intentional attack in the naval battle."

"It doesn't matter anyway, I have to try anything." Yi Yun spread his hands.

The deputy cannon of the Big Cute slowed down the attack frequency. Red Beard thought there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and was immediately overjoyed: "Although their cannons were fired continuously, they couldn't last long. Now the offensive has finally slowed down. Young people, rush for me!"

The pirates finally rushed into the five-nautical miles range. They were so excited that they quickly fired the artillery. At this time, there were still six remaining pirate warships. They turned the side to fire the artillery at the same time. More than one hundred cannons were lit up together, with a very loud noise. More than one hundred black iron balls flew towards the Da Meng.

The hit rate of these cannons is not high. After all, they are aimed by old artillery soldiers with their naked eyes, and there will always be a few meters of deviation. Therefore, only a dozen cannons hit the big cute number in just over one hundred cannons.

The Redbeard and the pirates were looking forward to the scene where the Da Meng was knocked out with joy, but they only saw the shells hitting the Da Meng's armor, only knocking out a row of sparks, and then bounced back and landed into the sea.

"Ah!" Redbeard was shocked.

All the pirates were shocked.

"The cannon is invalid for this iron ship?"

"We should have thought of it long ago. This is an iron ship. How could the cannon be driven?"

"It's over, what should I do now?"

Redbeard said furiously: "Barbarossa, the greatest pirate in the Mediterranean, must not admit defeat easily! The whole ship attacked, jumped to fight for me, snatched this big iron ship, and we won."

"Oh!" The pirates roared loudly and began to advance suddenly.

The Da Meng made a lazily shot and sank another battleship.

Li Huamei reported loudly: "Prince, there are five pirate ships that collided at our ship. Should we let the deputy cannons shoot in a rapid manner and send them all to the bottom of the sea?"

"No need!" Yi Yun waved his hand and said, "Let them jump up and try the last weapon. And I have said that I want to capture them. Although the cannons on their ship are old-style, each cannon is made of thousands of kilograms of iron. If you grab them, I can transform them into new weapons."

"Oh, this is true, our army lacks iron!" Li Huamei smiled and said, "It is a good way to grab some old cannons to transform them."

After a while, the last five warships of the Red Beard Pirates finally stood beside the Big Cute. The pirates nervously held knives, shields, short-handled rifles and other objects, intending to jump into the gang to fight.

At this time... a row of shooting holes were slid on both sides of the Da Meng, and a group of Yiwu gunmen stretched out their new weapons from the shooting hole with a smile...
