Chapter 182: The power of artillery

The Huoyun also quickly began shelling the pirate ship ahead. In order to show his power, Essett ordered the three main guns and three auxiliary guns of the bow to fire at the same time.
When the fifteen gun barrels of this steel monster burst into flames, the scene was very spectacular.
However, Huang Zheng found that their ships were not equipped with radar and the fire control system was very rudimentary, so although the scene was magnificent, the effect was not as good as the first shot of Hou Yi.
The two ships chased by the Huoyun did not have any meaning to fight back, but drove away with full horsepower.
On the other side, the Houyi has been distributed in an isosceles triangle with the two enemy ships, and the two sides have been able to see the figures on their ships.
The Houyi did not change its target. It kept staring at the first ship. Finally, in this round of shooting, a shell hit the stern of the pirate ship.
The pirate ships were all modified by civilian ships. This ship was just some thin armor attached to the side of the ship, and then some unknown guns and even field guns were installed on the deck. The actual defensive power of such a ship is not as good as portraying a wooden sailing ship with defensive reinforcement.
The Houyi was equipped with armor-piercing shells at this time. The shells penetrated the weak armor of the pirate ship, passed through the cabin under the deck, and then penetrated from the other side. Instead, it caused no explosion in the boat.
Except for one or two pirates who were knocked down by shocks, the pirates did not suffer great losses. The pirates who found out that they were a false alarm immediately started to fight back.
Essett was full of confidence in the Huoyun, and he handed over the pursuit of the pursuit to the first officer. I have been using the telescope to observe the situation on the other side. Seeing the effect of the opponent's shells penetrating the armor, he knew that the shells of these Easterners were no less powerful than himself. In the case of Hongyun, this level of shells is enough to penetrate its armor, and it will not over-penetrate, and it will definitely explode in the cabin.
The gunners on that sailboat seemed to have learned their lesson, and they changed the type of shell. When another artillery shell hit the pirate ship, the sky was filled with flames, and the spar explosive inside the shell exploded violently, lifting the rear deck and the two guns above.
The third artillery shell hit the middle of the pirate ship, and actually exploded the sky's electric light. These currents were conducted along the metal hull to various locations.
Nearly half of the pirates on the deck twitched and fell to the ground. The people closest to the point where the shells landed were black and almost roasted.
"What's going on!" The scene in front of him was beyond Essett's understanding, and his common sense could not explain how this current shell came into effect.
"This is an elemental projectile, that is, a projectile that uses elemental magic to kill the enemy, and current is just one of them." Huang Zheng said.
If the previous armor-piercing projectile is only similar to the Western Continental Navy equipment, the threat of this elemental bomb is much greater, and Essert involuntarily glanced at the ground of the bridge, also made of metal. If that kind of shell hits his ship, it can be transmitted to almost any part of the ship. If he hits the metal wall near the bridge, he can directly decapitate his command center. The only solution is to sink the opponent first.
On the sea, the pirate ship with three bombs has completely lost control. Those above have not been electrocuted. Either running wild like crazy, or daring to hide in the corner, some even chose to jump into the sea directly. But the Houyi is like a ruthless killer, and is not going to let them go.

Another armor-piercing projectile hit the location near the waterline, and the pirate ship began to leak and capsize, completely losing its combat effectiveness.
At this time, another pirate ship approached very decisively, taking advantage of Houyi's timeless attack on it, quickly approaching Houyi, and then began shelling at close range.
Essert felt that the Houyi was dangerous, because even the broken guns on the pirate ship, hitting a wooden boat at such a distance would certainly cause fatal damage.
But the subsequent scene made him stunned. A transparent barrier appeared on the Hou Yi, and all the shells hit by the pirate ship on the barrier exploded into the sky. But no flare and shrapnel flew into the transparent area. The shelling that was supposed to cause damage to this ship was all intercepted by a magical force.
"Is this also the power of magic?" Essett asked.
Huang Zheng said: "Yes, that is what you call the power of the devil. In fact, this power is also very powerful when it is used to protect, isn't it?"
Hou Yi's shield not only looked at Eselit, but also overwhelmed the pirates on the opposite pirate ship. They suddenly found that the other party brought them close is not a decision-making mistake, but completely fearless.
After showing the strength of his shield, Hou Yi pointed his muzzle at the pirate ship opposite. This time because the distance was too close, the first salvo exploded two sparks on the pirate ship.
Then in just a few minutes, this pirate ship became the target ship of the Hou Yi. The colorful element cannonballs exploded on the ship one after another, and the ice, acid and electricity, after various magical washing, the ship quickly turned into debris and sank to the bottom of the sea.
The Huoyun then had a shell hit the pirate ship's side that it was chasing.
At the same time, the Hou Yi had reversed direction and outwrote another pirate ship that was running away.
This time it no longer uses approach tactics and starts firing artillery shells very far apart.
When the Huoyun finally hit a middle section of the pirate ship with a shell, interrupting the waist of the ship, Hou Yi ’s dense artillery fire also hit the stern of the fourth ship, where a large hole was opened. The bow of the pirate ship was raised high, and everyone fell down from above, and then quickly sinked into it like a dagger inserted into the sea.
Houyi turned an arc and drove in front of Huoyun, and drove in the direction of Xingtian and Aier's Shield. When they passed the rescued merchant ship, the people on the merchant ship cheered and roared happily. For the rest of their lives, they dedicated their warmest compliments to the Houyi.
Essert looked at the back of the Hou Yi staring blankly, and his heart was full of shock. He calculated the possible result of fighting against this ship in his mind, and he could not find a way to win. He never thought that magic could be used this way. Compared with the power mastered by these people, the witches and witches previously captured were babies who knew nothing.
Huang Zheng said: "Three to one, it seems that we won."
