Daming pirates

The Shark Gang, headed by Qian Song's boat and carrying other boats in the middle, immediately stared at the big boat with the Chinese flag flying in the middle that rushed towards the opposite side, and they got within a mile of each other from both sides.

When we were about 100 meters away, a cry came from Wang Hong's boat.

Wang Hong told Yu Xiaotian to watch the left wing of his boat. He would follow Qian Song's boat to hit Hun Jianglong's boat first, and try to capsize Hun Jianglong first.

The battle will be easy to fight next.

Yu Xiaotian immediately answered that he understood, but he also knew that when Qian Song thought this way, Hun Jianglong might also have the same idea as him, and the handsome ships of both sides were in the middle of their respective fleets, and they did not use a linear formation.

Once they fight, they will immediately rush into each other's formation, and it will definitely be a melee.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian didn't hold out much hope and just decided to do his part and try his best to protect himself while protecting one side of Wang Hong's ship.

The speed of mutual motion on the sea is equivalent to doubling the speed. A distance of one mile is basically reached in a few minutes.

As the two fleets approached to a distance of more than 100 meters, some people in both fleets began to lose their composure and took the lead in igniting their guns and firing at the enemy ships on the opposite side.

Suddenly, several clouds of gunpowder smoke rose from the sea, and several rumbling cannon shots were heard in an instant. Unfortunately, this distance was still a bit too far for the small cannons on the boat, and several cannonballs were fired.

, basically all of them failed to hit the opponent's ship, and fell into the water in the opposite fleet one after another, causing a few waves.

Liu Tong and two of his men stood next to the Baizi Cannon at the bow of the ship. He turned his head anxiously and looked at Yu Xiaotian from time to time, waiting for Yu Xiaotian to also give the order to fire the gun. At this time, he had already caught the torch for ignition.

, you can hit the fire door at the rear of the gun at any time.

However, Yu Xiaotian was not in a hurry to let them fire the cannon. Instead, he first ordered the musketeers on the ship who were holding fire and bird blunderbuss to light the fire doors on the muskets.

On his ship, according to the rules that Yu Xiaotian had set before, no one was allowed to fire without permission without his order, so even if he saw someone firing, his ship remained quiet, even

The musketeer holding the blunderbuss did not even light the match rope, waiting for Xiaotian's order.

Yu Xiaotian was very satisfied with the performance of his men. At this moment, he didn't look at Hun Jianglong's ship at all. Instead, he searched the opposite fleet with his eyes, and finally locked his eyes on a ship heading towards him.

The incoming brigantine rushed to the boat.

"Brothers, especially the brothers from Xiaohuang Island, you still remember why we came to Fuzhou in the first place! If Hun Jianglong's men hadn't forced us, how could we have abandoned Dahuang Island and settled here?

Woolen cloth?

Now it's our time for revenge. Let's all cheer up and do a good job! Give them a hard blow and let them see how powerful our sea wolves are!

Keep an eye on the fleet on the other side. Don't worry about the other ships. Concentrate all your firepower and beat it hard first. Prepare the archers and rockets! Prepare the tail cannons for me. When you cross paths with them, keep an eye on them.

Hit accurately

! Let’s start! Take aim! Listen to my greeting and then fire!” Yu Xiaotian returned to the poop at the stern of the ship, stood next to the helmsman, pointed his finger at the sailing boat on the opposite side, and shouted loudly to the people on the ship.

The subordinates shouted.

Less than half of the people on the boat came out of Xiaohuang Island and were the first batch of people to follow Yu Xiaotian to the sea. Each of them had seen Xiao Dazui under Hun Jianglong on Dahuang Island and went to Dahuang Island to try to find them.

Due to bad luck, they were forced to leave Dahuang Island and go to Fuzhou as a last resort.

Now they are following the Shark Gang to deal with Hun Jianglong. Even if they are not extremely jealous when they meet enemies, at least they are holding their breath.

After Liu Tong received the order, he quickly moved the gun mount on the bow of the ship with his men and aimed the muzzle of the gun as much as possible at the sailing boat coming from the opposite side. The other musketeers and archers also lit the match ropes or

Rocket, ready for launch.

The two fleets almost collided with each other at this time, and the distance was shortened to tens of meters. The pockmarks on the faces of the pirates on the opposite ship could almost be clearly seen.

At this time, the ships on both sides almost began to fire their cannons at the same time, hitting the other side's ship.

In an instant, a series of cannon shots rang out on the sea, spreading like rolling thunder in all directions on the sea, and clouds of gunpowder smoke rose up from each ship.

The shells roared out of the cannon barrel one after another and flew towards the enemy ship. For a time, the sea became completely lively. These shells basically hit the enemy's ship on the opposite side. They were so accurate that I cannot praise them.

There were still shells falling into the sea at a distance of ten meters, but more than half of the shells still hit the target.

Some shells hit the hull of the enemy ship, and a hole was made in the hull with a bang. Some shells were not powerful enough. They hit the hull, but did not penetrate the hull. They just made a hole in the wood and then bounced.

fell into the sea water.

There are also some shells that are more accurate, hitting the side or sail of the enemy ship, either sending sawdust flying everywhere, or solidly opening a huge hole in the enemy's sail, which can be regarded as

Caused certain losses to the enemy.

Generally speaking, this kind of bombardment intensity, in such a naval battle, has more symbolic meaning than actual significance. It seems to be more for fun. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to sink or destroy enemy ships. On the contrary, some small cannons are

Scattered shells also posed some threats to enemy personnel. The small cannons flying in all directions had a higher hit rate and made crackling noises on the hulls of enemy ships. The sound was more frightening.

Yu Xiaotian didn't care about so much at the moment, all his attention was focused on the rushing boat from the opposite side. Just when the two boats were about to pass head-to-head, Yu Xiaotian yelled: "Give it to me."

Fire!"

As he shouted loudly, the musketeers, gunners, and archers on the ship immediately started to move. Liu Tong roared and put the torch on the door of the artillery in front of him, and only heard a bang.

, the gun immediately jumped up and landed on the deck with a bang, and the gun mount moved back two feet.

The musketeers all pulled their triggers one after another at this time, and the faucet holding the match rope fell with a clatter, landing right in the fire door of the fire gun. As soon as the fire door flashed, the muskets immediately sounded with a bang.

, a cloud of smoke rose from the gun's mouth, and clouds of green smoke rose up all over the ship.

The archer put the lit rocket on the bow string, pulled the string with all his strength, and fired the flaming arrow toward the shuttle boat.

This time, the oncoming shuttle boat was unlucky. The reason why the Baizi gun is called Baizi gun is because it is mainly used to fire shotguns. It can load more than a hundred cannons the size of a little finger at a time.

When fired from a long distance, the power is considered poor, but when fired at close range, it can be said to hit a large area, and the killing effect on personnel should not be underestimated.

At this moment, the distance between the two ships was only about 20 meters. This shot was almost only fired at the opponent's head. How could it be unreasonable?

More than a hundred cannonballs immediately swept across the opponent's ship like rain, hitting several pirates on the opponent's ship who screamed and fell onto the ship. One guy even fell off the other side of the ship.

He got off the boat and fell into the sea screaming.

As for the bullets fired by several musketeers and the rockets fired by archers, Yu Xiaotian did not expect them to make any achievements. Although the distance was not far, he wanted to aim accurately and hit an enemy on a rocking ship.

, it’s not easy either, it has more elements to scare people, and by the way, the rockets also cause some trouble to the opponent.

But even so, the opponent still suffered a big loss. The people on the deck suffered many casualties under the cannon, causing them to immediately lose their position.

Seeing two rockets stuck in their sails, the pirate leader on the opposite ship quickly shouted to put out the fire and asked his men to fetch water to put out the fire. For a while, he had no time to counterattack Xiaotian's Sea Wolf.
