Chapter 705 A real man never looks back at the explosion (please subscribe!)

At that time, Captain Holland could see clearly the two "silly" "pirate infantry" despite the light of fire rising into the sky.

They were just wearing boxer briefs and covered in tendons, but they were two tough men.

The two macho men were carrying something strange on their shoulders.

His intuition told him that it was good!

"Kill them quickly!"

The Dutch captain ordered to the east that it was too late to quarrel.

Because the tail of the rocket launcher on the shoulder of the Ming Marine Corps sprayed out a cloud of fireworks, and the spindle-shaped head of the rocket launcher flew towards them at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Dutch Captain Dong unconsciously drew his gun and fired, but before he could pull out his leg gun, the spindle-shaped Shipbreaker rocket fired too fast. With a "swish" sound, the Shipbreaker rocket took off into the air.

It got up, and then hit the wooden shell of the Holland Fern with a bang!

The design of the shipbreaker rocket is specially designed for wooden ships. There is an extremely sharp steel needle at the front end, which can be easily nailed into the shell of a wooden warship.

"He is the emperor, what the hell is that?"

The rocket did not explode immediately, but it did scare the Dutch captain out of his wits.

Before his soul returned, there was a roar in his ears, and the rocket launched by the squad leader exploded!

The entire hull of the galley was shaking violently, and the Dutch captain instantly lost his balance and fell to the ground, even the leg gun flying out of his leg.

"Hit!"

The new captain of the Marine Corps cheered loudly!

For some reason, blowing up enemy vehicles gave him great pleasure.

But he soon felt uncomfortable again, because the location of his explosion was good. He only made a hole in the left side of the ship amidships and broke two or three oars by the way.

There was no serious damage to the hull, and the galley sailed smoothly on the sea.

"Drop it! I was anxious just now!"

The squad leader cursed secretly.

I just asked if it was hit on the side of the gun deck. It might cause the ammunition to explode or cause a fire.

But the team leader was unlucky and hit the oar leg deck, which only killed some oar legs.

And those paddle legs are very much not Dutch, they are Indian slaves.

As the name suggests, the main power of a galley comes from the oar legs. Different sizes of battleships require different numbers of oar legs.

A small galley requires dozens of people, while a large warship may require hundreds of people.

The origins of oar legs vary in different periods. In the 16th century, there were more paddlers. They were employed and would not be tied to chains - but those people often lived in very poverty and had no other way to make a living, so they worked

The environment and treatment will not be very good.

After the beginning of the 16th century, criminals, captives and slaves gradually became the main force of oar legs.

The slave paddle legs were often locked together by three or four people and fixed on a bench about 0.3 meters wide.

Once they are settled on a certain seat, they cannot move for a short period of time.

The slave paddle legs can eat a little black biscuit every day and suffer from hunger.

In addition to a pair of linen breeches, there are only iron chains on the legs and feet. If the warship needs to move, the oar legs must paddle according to the rhythm. If you are not careful, you will be beaten by the overseer with a whip on his legs.

Paddling hard is the only thing they want to do, and they can't rest even if they are exhausted.

Especially when the warship is chasing the enemy or trying to escape, the supervisor will wave his whip desperately, and the oar legs will have to paddle for a long time.

Isn't that an exaggeration? Is it normal to die from exhaustion?

To prevent escape, the oar legs will be fixed on the bench once out to sea, sometimes for several months.

That means that they eat, drink, and drink in one place, cannot sleep for a long time, and some of them go crazy straight away.

To prevent escape, the oar legs will be fixed on the bench once out to sea, sometimes for several months.

That means that they eat, drink, and drink in one place, cannot sleep for a long time, and some of them go crazy straight away.

Obviously, that kind of work has a very high mortality rate for oar legs.

In addition, because slaves had to eat, drink, and eat in a small space, the galleys often stunk, and people in the port could smell the stink from a long distance away.

In the 16th century, galleys would dock at ports periodically and be washed clean with sea water.

But no, such an environment makes it easy for diseases to spread and can kill a large number of paddle legs in a short period of time.

Some lucky slaves survived the whips of the overseers, survived the long war, and survived the raging diseases, and finally returned to the port for a short rest.

But what awaits them is that once Dong Dong sets sail, those oar legs that have been squeezed dry will not last long.

However, during the war, the galleys needed to constantly replenish their oar legs.

That's why the squad leader of the Marine Corps felt that he had suffered a huge loss, so he shot some oar legs to death.

boom!

Just when he was very dissatisfied with the result of the battle, the butt of the Dutch ship was hit by another rocket and a fireball shot up!

The galley was basically useless.

Does that mean the rocket fired from his secondary leg hit the target?

Rounding out the credit for his deputy legs, he also has credit for his leadership, so fly!

"Wan Sheng!"

There were cheers on the sea surface. It turned out that several other Malayan speedboats also felt the battlefield.

"Follow him quickly!"

the squad leader shouted.

As the saying goes, a real man never looks back to see the explosion. When things are done, he brushes off his clothes and hides his merits and fame.

Of course, the real reason is that those speedboats are here to set fire. If you don't run away, you will be burned to death!

The two of them didn't dare to stay on the raft for long, so they quickly jumped into the water and swam towards one of the Malayan speedboats.

Seeing that the two men had successfully escaped, the speedboats approaching the Eight-Power Allied Forces fishing boat - Mupai Defense Line began to throw violent incendiary bottles at them!

Those ignited Molotov cocktails drew a beautiful arc in the night sky, and then smashed into pieces at the enemy's defense line, making a bang-bang-bang sound and igniting a sky-high fire at the same time!

That fire turned the surrounding sea into red day!

The surviving Dutch ship "Pennelle" and several other galleys of the Dutch East India Company were caught in the sight of the Ming Dynasty marines in a violent storm.

Those speedboats were so fast that the Dutch couldn't hit them.

The Fenghuang, which was hit by two rockets, was exposed first, so it attracted the most firepower. Five speedboats rushing ahead had their rockets ready.

There is no horse in Bu Nao firing, because it is more accurate when it is closer.

When the captain of the Fenghuang saw the five Malayan speedboats approaching him quickly, he felt like he was surrounded by despair, so he shouted in horror: "Paddle, let those damn people paddle hard. We have to

Get out of there!"

Can you tell how hysterical he was that he couldn't get up at all?

It's not that the Tianzhu slave's oar legs were catching fish, but that the team leader's ship-breaker made a great contribution.

Even though the shipbreaker is not that big, the smokeless nitrocellulose gunpowder filled inside is several times more powerful than black gunpowder!
