Chapter 1585: Fatal Strike
One by one, the flying balls began to set off and headed towards the target.
Hu Kaishan couldn't help but sweat.
Because for him, if the flying ball is broken, he will not be afraid.
But what is loaded on this flying ball is worth a thousand gold.
Such a large iron ball costs amazingly, it is said to involve craftsmanship, and it is extremely troublesome to manufacture.
Hu Kaishan looked at such a valuable big lump and was about to throw it away soon and then turn it into pieces. He felt so distressed. This was... copper... pure copper, something that the emperor rewarded people with.
But no matter how distressed Hu Kaishan felt, he could only watch the flying ball gradually fade away.
After that, the fleet advanced at full speed.
…………
On the other side, Alfonso had already taken a team of guards to escort Xu Pengju to an ambush site.
Looking at the wolf smoke in the distance, Alfonso had an expectant smile on his face.
He had decided that if the Ming army did not come, it would mean that the plan failed. The Ming army must have known that Xu Pengju was used for him. Then Xu Pengju would be useless and could kill Xu Pengju on the spot today.
Of course, Alfonso was very interested in the Duke of Qi in the Ming Dynasty.
These days, he learned a lot of the deeds of the Duke of Qi from Xu Pengju, and in addition, some Spaniards had landed in the Ming Dynasty before, and also brought some sporadic messages.
This made Alfonso realize that the Duke of Qi was an extraordinary figure in the Ming Dynasty.
He raised his telescope and looked at the still calm sea.
Then he said to Xu Pengju indifferently: "With your observation, who is more wiser to me or Duke of Qi?"
Xu Pengju's body was so scarred that he changed into Franji's tight clothes. With a slight movement, the clothes were tied tightly, which made him extremely uncomfortable.
At this moment, he shook his big head and thought for a while: "You are more wise."
Afangsuo said: "Is that true?"
He glanced at Xu Pengqiu, as if he could see Xu Pengqiu's despair of his will.
This young man is obviously not good at deception.
But... what does this matter? As long as this Ming navy or landing army is eliminated, it will be meaningless.
He could almost imagine the way the Duke of Qi jumped for it.
"What is that?"
At this moment, someone exclaimed.
Alfonso immediately came to his senses and raised his telescope.
He saw black dots appear above the sea level, slowly coming towards the direction of the wolf smoke.
Alfonso was stunned.
This is……
"It's a flying ball!" After a pause, Alfonso said firmly: "I know this. Someone once discovered from the Ming Dynasty that they have something that can fly into the sky, and can drop tincture oil and arrows from the flying ball for war. This is really an interesting thing."
Alfonso seemed calm.
Because he found that there were not many flying balls, but only a dozen.
This thing, bow, arrow or musket, cannot enter the effective range, so it is extremely difficult to deal with and cannot be dealt with.
But... if there are only a dozen flying balls, with their limited loading capacity, the tincture oil and arrows they carry are just scratching the surface for the entire Spaniard.
So he immediately calmly issued an order: "Don't pay attention to them, pass on my orders, let the soldiers hide in the castles and walls, prepare the sand and stones, and once they throw down the tincture oil, put out the fire immediately, and don't be afraid!"
He looked back at Xu Peng and raised his eyes: "They are here!"
Sure enough... the other party got into his trap.
The flying ball flew very slowly.
There is no way, the load is too heavy.
What's more... the characteristic of flying balls is that they have no natural enemies, and they are not worried about anything on the ground that can pose a threat to them.
Therefore, speed is not a problem.
The players on the flying ball held the telescope and began to constantly determine their positions. With the guidance of the wolf smoke, this step was very fast. After all, the fuel of the flying ball was limited. Once the headless flies were searching everywhere, the next thing they had to face was the return journey.
They held the compass, controlled the tail of the flying ball, carefully corrected their position and goals, and then... they found the valuable targets that Langyan pointed to.
Almost all the players recruited by the Fei team are a group of scholars.
Because only scholars can calculate numbers and quickly teach them how to draw, annotate and many principles.
They are not so much a group of soldiers as a group of technicians.
And now... the target has been locked.
There are two people on each flying ball, one constantly calculating the wind power and constantly adjusting the position of the flying ball in the atmosphere according to the wind power.
In the atmosphere, the wind direction and wind force are different. Only through precise calculations can the orientation be ensured.
Finally, they began to appear over the fortresses and countless gatherings.
And below, the Spanish people looked up at the giants falling from the sky, but fortunately their excellent military literacy did not panic.
They are not Tatars who have never seen the world. When they see Feiqiu, they will never think they are ghosts.
Since you are not a ghost, just try to minimize the casualties caused by these weird things according to their characteristics.
Alfonso even found it ridiculous.
"I'm very knowledgeable about science..." He looked at the fortress in the distance and the flying balls that appeared above the fortress. The flying balls began to appear over the military camp, over the fortress, and above the warehouse...
He continued, "Your Excellency the Prince."
Alfonso said in a quip tone: "According to my understanding of science, it is indeed a great thing to waste such great energy and make an object fly into the sky, but the waste caused is also huge, because the fuel it uses must be amazing. In addition, in order to reduce weight, it can carry only utensils, and it takes so much effort, but it only carries some tiny oil or archery. This has a huge shocking effect on the barbarians of Luzon, or the natives of the New World, but... it has no meaning to people from the civilized world."
"Your country seems to have obtained great victories in your words because of borrowing these... in your words, it should be fancy things. It seems to be complacent for the barbarians. But... it would be ridiculous if you think that you can deal with the noble Spanish knights and the infantry regiment of His Highness the Spanish King."
"Haha...haha..." Alfonso burst into laughter.
Xu Pengju could have heard the sarcasm, shook his head and said nothing.
Seeing his silent appearance, Alfonso hated him very much, so he said in an orderly tone: "Why don't you laugh with me?"
"Ha ha……"
Xu Pengju thought about it and had to grin and followed: "Haha...haha..."
Seeing Xu Pengju's stiff smile, Alfonso was even more happy. It seemed that because the plan was close to success, the real Ming Navy was about to arrive soon, and next, a battle with his own advantage was about to begin. He felt a little relieved and smiled even more presumptuously.
Xu Pengju was also funny...
The scene at this moment became relaxed, vivid and interesting.
And at this moment...
The players on the flying ball had already detonated the big iron ball through the striker.
They have undergone training and while firing the striker, the big iron ball has been removed.
Once this giant escapes from the flying ball, it begins to fall at an extremely fast speed under the action of gravity.
With a whistling...
The Spaniards on the ground saw... this behemoth seemed to cover the sky.
They called each other, trying to hide or look for obstacles.
Huhuhuhuhu...
The big iron balls... suddenly turned into a sunlight.
Yes... above the Spanish, at this moment, it seemed that they saw another sun.
After this moment of sunlight...
Then came a harsh roar.
The huge roar made everyone feel that they were isolated from the world.
A powerful impact seemed to trigger a storm, so that the human body could not bear it at all. Those close to each other were instantly torn to pieces.
The copper ball had exploded, and countless fine copper pieces were harvesting flesh and blood with the impact.
In this era, there was no so-called fortress reinforced by concrete. Under this huge impact, the fortresses made of huge stones exploded, so... the sand and stones...
The Spaniards, who thought they could hide behind and get security, could not imagine that the obstacles made by this stone collapsed at this moment.
Immediately afterwards, a ball of fireworks rose into the air, like a towering tree, and the high temperature turned all the burnable substances nearby into ashes.
The vast majority of people have no time to shout, ask for help, or express any emotion about this matter that they cannot understand.
Because...at this moment, life became so fragile that in this short moment, they completely lost contact with the world.
The flying balls that were throwing bombs in the sky... After dropping the bombs, they wanted to leave quickly, but the impact on the ground and the waves of heat still made many flying balls constantly bump.
After a flying ball was even directly hit by the heat wave, it was shaking and malfunctioning, and it was forced to head towards the ground in the distance.
But at this moment, no one has paid attention to the flying ball.
Alfonso was still grinning, his mouth was open, and he was supposed to continue laughing. At this time, his facial expression had frozen.
He looked at the most important city and fortress in Luzon from afar. He had seen its rise with his own eyes, but now... he actually saw its destruction!
"Hahahaha..." Xu Pengju's laughter continued...
…………
I would like to ask a weak question, would you give Zhang Yuezhao some face? After all... Tiger is also a well-known person.
