Daming pirates

After thinking about it for a while, Yu Xiaotian found that creating a set of such semaphores and lanterns was not as simple as he thought. After all, this thing is based on Morse code or letters. It is definitely not easy to compile it easily.

It was an easy task, so he had to settle for the next best thing and first formulate a simple set of flags. Following the example of the officers, soldiers, navy and colleagues at that time, he had to formulate some simple flags to convey information.

At the same time, lanterns are also temporarily used at night, with colors and numbers representing different meanings, to temporarily meet the communication command at night. Although the information carrying capacity is small, it is at least better than nothing.

Because of this matter, Yu Xiaotian's hair was almost falling out these days, and even Lan'er was left aside. Suddenly he remembered the few time-travel novels he had read. Pig's feet were often either historians or

With a super computer, there seems to be no problem that cannot be solved, but for him, why is it so difficult to do something?

After the Yellow Fish arrived, it disguised itself as a fishing boat. Yu Xiaotian still sent Luo Xianbin out to act as their sentry ship, monitoring the movements of passing ships near the channel.

They waited here for two full days, but the two boats of the Lei family still did not show up, which made the guys on the boat a little impatient.

Madman Meng saw that Yu Xiaotian was still writing and drawing on the boat, and couldn't understand what he was doing. After leading the soldiers to practice on the boat, he walked to Yu Xiaotian's side, sweating profusely.

He said to Xiaotian: "Helmsman, you see, we have been hiding here for two days, but there is still no sign of the Lei family's ship. Could it be that the news from the Li family is wrong? We won't let it go to waste.

Wait!"

Yu Xiaotian closed the notepad in his hand, raised his head and looked at the sky. It was almost noon again, so he shook his head and said: "It stands to reason that the Li family should not have wrong news. They want to take revenge on the Lei family."

It’s not just a day or two. As the saying goes, you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves. There will definitely be nothing wrong with the Lei family’s trip south, but the Li family has no way of knowing exactly when they will set off!

So we can't rush this kind of thing, let's wait and see! If you want to accomplish something big, you can't do it without a little patience. This time we are bound to win. Even if we wait a few more days, we must get this Lei family's

Take both boats!

Why have the Li family been so good to us during this period? I believe you all understand the reason. To put it bluntly, in their eyes, we are just dogs raised by him. Although this is ugly, we have to admit that since they

The purpose of raising us like this is to let us do their dirty work and bite people when they need us!

Whether we admit it or not, this is an obvious thing. If we don't do it, with the ability of the Li family, they can find another supporter and throw us aside like worn out shoes. But we are still

We really can’t leave them! So we have to do some dirty work for them!

This is the first time that the Li family has asked us to do something. If we can't do it, who will be willing to deal with us in the future? Tell the brothers below to calm down and do whatever you need to do!

Let them sharpen the swords and guns for me, clean the firecrackers, and prepare the gunpowder and shells for me, so that they don’t let me lose the chain when I use them!”

Madman Meng nodded and agreed, and was about to turn away when he turned around and asked Xiaotian: "***, after hearing what the tiller said, I feel really uncomfortable and tight, but I have to admit that you are

That’s right! Alas!

By the way, the helm just said that the chain is off, what does it mean? Why haven't I heard of it before?"

When Yu Xiaotian heard this, he rolled his eyes, and then he remembered that there was no chain at that time. Besides, the words about chain dropping came from the Northeastern people's saying. Crazy Meng and the others had never heard anyone say it.

So he had to say: "This is out of line! Well... where I live, it means that things can't be done at critical times! As long as you know it!"

As for whether you feel comfortable or not, it doesn’t matter if you think about it! They are using us, so why aren’t we using them? Now we can’t do without them, but in the future when we grow up, I’m afraid it’s them who can’t do without

Let's go! By then, the Li family will become our dogs. This is also called the store bullying the customers, and the customers bullying the store! Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, not to mention that if we do well, it won't take three years at all.

ten years!

Okay, you go down and follow my instructions!"

Madman Meng scratched his butt and turned his head while walking and muttered: "Drop the chain, this is really interesting. You all listened to me, the tiller said it, you all, don't be so f*cking anxious, just do what you should do honestly."

I have all the things I have in hand ready, so I don’t want them to fall apart when I use them..."

Another hour passed, and there was still no sound on the sea outside the cape, and there was still no movement from Luo Xianbin's side.

So Yu Xiaotian sent a subordinate to go ashore to take a look around, replace the hidden sentry nearby, and continue to monitor the movements around the shore. Although there were not many people in this area, he did not want the local officials to know that he was carrying two

The boat was parked here, and the Lei family's boat was not intercepted. Instead, the officers and soldiers were recruited. That would be a big joke!

Just when the people on the boat were bored and looking for a place to sit down and rest according to the schedule set by Yu Xiaotian, two cannon shots suddenly rang out on the sea.

After hearing this, Yu Xiaotian immediately perked up and shouted sternly: "Everyone is here! Weigh the anchor and raise the sail! It's time to get to work!"

After hearing the sound, the people on the two boats suddenly became excited. They jumped up like there were springs under their butts and rushed to their respective positions like flying.

The anchor was pulled out of the water with a clatter, and the sail was slowly raised by the winch under the operation of the sailors.

The two boats soon began to move and began to sail slowly towards the cape.

The helmsman kept pulling the rudder, and Hu Cheng, the leader of the ship, also shouted at his subordinates to adjust the angle of the sail so that the sail began to catch the wind and push the ship to accelerate.

The two gunshots just now were actually two large firecrackers set off by Luo Xianbin of the Yellow Fish outside. The two firecrackers were tied to arrows, lit and then launched into the air with a bow, and then exploded in the air.

This allows the sound to travel farther.

The Yellow Fish has been staying near the channel for the past two or three days, pretending to be fishing, monitoring passing ships, looking for traces of the Lei family's two boats.

This way they can avoid disturbing the passing ships, so as not to attract the attention of others, and at the same time, they can avoid their peers. Once they discover the appearance of the Lei family ship, they will immediately use this method to report the news to Yu Xiaotian who is hiding on the inside of the cape.

.

Now that Luo Xianbin sent out a signal, it meant that they had discovered the target and immediately released a sounding arrow to notify Yu Xiaotian.

Yu Xiaotian did not dare to neglect, and immediately led the boat out of the cape, heading towards the sea where the sounding arrow rose.

The Seal was temporarily led by Madman Meng. He and his men drove the Seal and followed closely behind the Sea Wolf. He was even more energetic during the battle and looked towards the sea, searching for anything suspicious on the sea.

goal.

Soon they saw the Yellow Fish on the sea. At the bow of the Yellow Fish, a man waved an orange flag and kept pointing the small flag in one direction.

So the Sea Wolf and the Seal immediately adjusted their course and sailed in the direction pointed by the Yellow Fish. Not long after, they saw two ships appearing far away on the sea.

People with good eyesight on the boat could gradually see that the two boats were in the same condition as what the Li family had provided them. They were a blessing boat and a sailing boat, with the word "Thunder" written on both the mainmast and sails.

In this way, there would be no mistake. These two ships were the two Lei family merchant ships that the Li family asked them to rob. So Yu Xiaotian immediately ordered the helmsman to turn the helm and go straight to the two Lei family ships.

go.

The two Lei family boats had already raised their vigilance after hearing the sound of two arrows on the sea. After seeing the two boats Sea Wolf and Seal appear on the sea, they even realized that

Something big is happening!

So the two Lei family boats maintained a high degree of tension at this time, raised the full sail, began to adjust the sails to take in enough wind, and turned the rudder to try to get rid of Yu Xiaotian's two boats.

Although the Yellow Fish could not be of much help, it still raised its sails as much as possible and stayed far behind the Sea Wolf, hoping to catch up with this action.

Yu Xiaotian grinned and looked at the two Lei family boats in front of him, almost salivating. He wanted two such good boats now, and nothing he said today would make them run away.

"Brothers, cheer up. Hands, it all depends on your ability. Don't cheer like usual. I think you are great. If you have the ability, show it now, Hu Cheng! Step up for me, and speed up with enough wind.

Chase them!" Yu Xiaotian shouted loudly.

"Follow the helm! Don't worry! You can't run away from them!" Hu Cheng immediately agreed loudly. Now Hu Cheng has completely followed Yu Xiaotian. A few years ago, the Li family found it in Fu'an County.

His family was brought to Dalian Island with help. During the Chinese New Year, they were taken to Treasure Island and reunited with his family.

So Hu Cheng has nothing to worry about now, so he has no choice but to continue working in this business. He is already a good sailor. In the past six months, he has practiced his boatmanship skills a lot, and his ability to serve the sails has improved by leaps and bounds. Look,

It can be said that the level of sail adjustment is already perfect.

Moreover, he also brought out more than a dozen sailing experts. Now the sailors on both boats are not bad. In addition, the two boats are now in a lightly loaded state, and the bottoms of the boats have just been cleaned. The speed of the boats is faster than

It was much faster before.

Therefore, it was no problem for them to chase two fully loaded merchant ships at sea. In less than half an hour, their two ships basically caught up with the two Lei family ships.

The people on the two boats of the Lei family also knew that they could not escape today, so they shouted tentatively and tried to negotiate with Yu Xiaotian and others to spend a small amount of money to buy a way. Yu Xiaotian ordered both boats to raise the sea wolf flag, and

He picked up a loudspeaker and loudly ordered the Lei family's two boats to lower their sails and stop, refusing to accept their negotiations.

The people on the two Lei family boats saw that negotiation was impossible. The two sea wolf boats had made it clear that they were going to eat them, so the two boats gave up the negotiation and continued to adjust sails and rudders to escape.

Yu Xiaotian stopped talking to them and ordered the Sea Wolf and the Seal to focus on the fast medium-sized fortune ship in front of them, and control it first before moving on to the other one.

After Madman Meng got the order, he immediately sailed his boat to outflank the ship to the left, and he and the Sea Wolf attacked the lucky ship from left to right.

At this time, as the distance got closer, the people on the Lei family's boat were also ready to resist. When the distance got closer to about 100 meters, gunpowder smoke rose up and the sound of cannons rang out on both the Fu and Zhuang boats.

The Lei family is also a wealthy family, and they also have an artillery piece on board. However, as a merchant ship, their armament is weaker after all, and the artillery on the ship is not much better. Needless to say, the level of the gunners is not that great. They seldom practice.

, just know how to use it.

At a distance of 100 meters, using their cannons to hit Yu Xiaotian's ship was basically like a lucky break. At most, the scattershot would be able to hit it, but it would basically not cause much damage.

Yu Xiaotian ignored their bombardment and ordered the gunners to prepare and fire according to his orders. The musketeers also lit the match ropes and got ready, and the archers took their positions on the side of the ship.

The distance between the several ships continued to close. When the distance was about fifty meters, Yu Xiaotian began to order the firing. The Baizi guns and large-mouth guns on the Sea Wolf and Seal suddenly fired together.
