C915 Burning Dakar (1/2)

”The ten o'clock direction of the Zhiyuan Warship... Target No. 3 Battery... ”High-explosive ammunition three rounds in a row...”

”One o'clock direction... Target's ship to raise sails... (TL: Sailor/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/Sail/ ”Two shots in a row …”

”Target Dakar Army Camp... The target was the servants camp … Target armoury... ”

”Target Dakar... Fire! Fire! ”Fire!”

The two commanders, Xiang Ying and Lin Zhen, had abandoned all distracting thoughts and threw themselves into the explosion, the two of them could not help but be ecstatic, they never thought that the defenses of the Dakar would be so sluggish.

The bombing went on for 15 minutes, the two turrets were ignited in flames, three battleships and four merchant ships were engulfed by the flames, and the harbor was filled with the sound of sailors diving and tragic wails.

The entire city was in chaos. Figures could be seen everywhere, and the noise was loud enough to reach the sky.

Immediately after, the Zhiyuan Warship's cannons extended towards the city and shot. At this time, it was not a time for women, and there was no need for human rights and international law to interfere, as long as it was a military target on the map, I don't care if you have any civilians staying there or not, the cannons would explode first.

There was a date, but not a date.

The God of Luck was forever a warrior's benefactor, and when the Zhiyuan Warship threw away all restraints and went all out to fight, the Zhiyuan Warship's luck returned.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Three consecutive shots were like thunder, followed by three balls of fire igniting in armoury, three minutes later, the ammunition depot began to explode.

BOOM! A world-shaking explosion sounded as the citizens of the Dakar fell to the ground in fright. From the direction of the distant armoury, a mushroom cloud rose up.

The shock wave from the explosion sent the debris flying into the sky. When the kinetic energy ran out, stones rained down from the sky. All the black men lay prone on the ground and prayed to all sorts of unknown gods. When had they ever seen such a large scale explosion?

An explosion that far surpassed the might of heaven and earth was not something that the primitive man could understand.

There were cries and shouts everywhere, and people were running around helplessly. Now that they could think about it, those who wanted to escape out of the city could be considered people with great mental fortitude, and even more people were completely dumbfounded.

”Wuwuwu …” It must be an Englishman, absolutely an Englishman! My God! Why do you punish me so? I will be qualified enough to return to Paris next year …. Why is war happening during my term of office! ”

The Governor was crying like a child in his pajamas while hugging his most precious treasure chest. Under the protection of his loyal bodyguards, he ran out of the city.

”Damn Englishman, I curse you to go to hell!” The Governor scolded as she ran. Soon, the group disappeared into the darkness.

The Governor's escape was another key factor in Dakar's defeat. Five minutes after he left the manor, a captain on a horse rushed in. Your Excellency the Governor Brigadier General Cecil disappeared in armoury... ”The brigadier general can no longer contact us, please step in to reorganize the troops …”

The shouting came to an abrupt halt, for the captain saw all the slaves fleeing the estate, the barbarians carrying their belongings running in all directions, and the captain realized that the governor had already taken the lead.

”Oh God, what kind of war is this? All of the commanders cannot be found, so how are we supposed to fight this battle! ”
