The Barton side currently had no idea that cannons needed a certain amount of time to cool down after firing. Otherwise, this would have been an excellent opportunity for a counterattack.
Of course, in White Butcher's eyes, this actually amounted to nothing at all.
Their defensive armor was not merely for show. Although the earlier attack by Barton's large warships had been somewhat beyond effective range, greatly reducing its power, it had at least proven the strength of their hull armor.
From the spoils seized in the previous battle, White Butcher could easily tell that even Barton's naval ballistae still lagged behind the Great Zhou's Three-bow Ballistae.

With that in mind, he still had the advantage in speed, and there was no way he would simply remain in place and let the enemy attack him.
Therefore, White Butcher truly did not take the issue of the gun barrels needing to cool down very seriously.

Ironclad Ship 001 was fast, but it could not possibly pursue ten enemy ships at once.
During this process, the Great Zhou fleet, which had already moved
