Daming pirates

The thick smoke from the fire billowed into the sky and soon formed a cloud of smoke over Treasure Island. The thick smoke over Treasure Island could be seen from a long distance away.

Yu Xiaotian slammed his hand on the side of the ship and shouted sternly: "Raise the sails! Go back to our island! Beat He as hard as I can!"

The five ships waved the command flag on the Sea Wolf, and the sails were immediately raised by the sailors. Others on the ship also rushed to help the sailors turn the windlass and lift the ship.

The sail was raised as fast as possible.

The ship that had gained the wind immediately began to cut through the calm sea. Under the control of the helmsmen, the ship quickly pointed the bow in the direction of Treasure Island and sailed towards their home base.

The fastest ones, Sea Lion and Seal, acted as the guides and walked at the front of the fleet. Soon they surpassed the sea level and saw Treasure Island in the distance.

The distance of more than ten miles does not seem to be long, but it is not short for the speed of the ship in this era. Even if they are completely with the wind at this time, it will take them half an hour to reach Treasure Island.

.

There are many things that can be done during this period, at least enough for He Guang and his men to discover the Sea Wolf fleet. There is no doubt about this. Yu Xiaotian does not expect to appear directly in front of them without the other party discovering them.

in front of.

The reason why he did this instead of waiting for He Guang's arrival at Treasure Island was for one purpose, which was to make He Guang lose his psychological preparation first and not give them any excuse, so that He Guang would be in a dilemma after taking action.

Among the situations, the most important thing is that if he waits for He Guang's arrival on Treasure Island, He Guang will have the advantage of the wind direction from south to north.

When fighting at sea, the role of wind direction cannot be ignored. This is why when fighting at sea, both the enemy and ourselves want to seize the upper hand.

Yu Xiaotian pulled the fleet to the southeast in advance and waited for He Guang to attack Treasure Island. He wanted to use this method to put He Guang's fleet at a disadvantage and completely seize the initiative on the battlefield.

And by doing this today, he achieved what he wanted to achieve. When their fleet appeared on the southeast sea, it didn't take long for the people from He Guang's fleet to discover their traces.

, and immediately warned He Guang.

At this time, He Guang was angrily landing on the island himself, hiding behind to supervise the battle, and led his men to launch an attack on Sea Wolf's stronghold.

And now it seemed that they had taken control of the situation and divided into three waves to attack the stronghold from three places, forcing Han Xian who was guarding the stronghold to distribute his men to resist. In this way, they completely lost their firepower.

The advantage is that only two cannons can be placed in each direction. As a result, it is basically impossible to effectively prevent the Shark Gang from approaching the wall.

In one place, members of the Shark Gang were already close to the bottom of the wall and were trying to climb up the wall using ladders or throwing ropes.

Han Xian had already started preparing Molotov cocktails and smashed them under the village wall.

At this time, He Guang heard a warning from someone on the ship, telling him that a fleet of ships was coming from the southeast. He Guang was really frightened, and he quickly ordered the gong to be sounded and the troops withdrawn.

He himself returned to the boat and looked towards the southeast sea. After seeing clearly the sails of six ships on the sea, He Guang was so shocked that his hands and feet were cold, and he no longer dared to order the attack on Sea Wolf's village.

, urgently ordered all his men to return to their respective ships immediately, set sail and anchor and leave the shore of Treasure Island.

When Yu Xiaotian led the fleet back to Treasure Island, He Guang had already led all his men to board the ship, sailed away from Treasure Island, opened up a posture on the sea, and met the Sea Wolf fleet.

.

When he saw the flags raised on each ship of the fleet, He Guang took a breath of cold air. He never thought that all these ships were flying the flag of Sea Wolf. This shows that

, the visitors were not just a few fellow travelers, but all came from Sea Wolf’s ships.

This situation made He Guang puzzled. He couldn't figure out how Yu Xiaotian could obtain so many ships and manpower in such a short period of time, and his strength actually exceeded those he brought.

Men and ships.

In this way, He Guang knew something was wrong. Before he came, he did not expect such a situation at all, and he was basically careless.

So he knew that he was in big trouble today, because he had been delayed on the island for a while, and by the time he got his people ready, he had already lost the advantage in the wind, and the Sea Wolf fleet had completely gained the upper hand.

Putting them at a disadvantage, the wind direction was extremely unfavorable to them. Coupled with the sudden change in the strength of both sides, it also put a lot of pressure on his subordinates, so their morale was also affected.

A small blow.

He Guang saw that he was not taking advantage. It was already unrealistic for him to destroy Hailang today. If he was not careful, he might be beaten to death by Yu Hailang. So he saw that the momentum was not good and quickly gave the order.

The fleet turned around and retreated towards the west of Treasure Island, trying to get rid of the Sea Wolf Gang's fleet and leave here as soon as possible.

Yu Xiaotian had been watching He Guang's fleet since he saw them. After approaching Treasure Island, he saw that He Guang's fleet had begun to leave Treasure Island and pull up on the sea.

He opened his formation and assumed a posture to fight them.

Yu Xiaotian pursed his lips and stood on the stern of the Sea Wolf. He ordered the Sea Lion to take the lead, the Sea Wolf to the center, the Sea Eagle to the rear, the Seal to the left, and the Sea Shark to the right.

distance between them, they pressed towards He Guang's fleet in a dense formation.

They were completely in the upper hand at the moment. It could be said that they were going smoothly. They had an absolute advantage in terms of ship speed alone, not to mention flexibility. He Guang basically had no chance to regain this advantage.

Therefore, whether it is a battle of ships or manpower, he is taking advantage now. If he cannot win this battle, then he might as well stop thinking about it, just pack up his stuff and find another place to hang out!

When they approached He Guang's fleet, Yu Xiaotian saw that He Guang's fleet suddenly began to turn around and began to sail towards the west of Treasure Island. He could immediately guess that He Guang had lost his ship.

He had the fighting spirit to give up fighting them head-on and go back home.

Since all his strongholds were burned down by He Guang, and now that He Guang saw that he was not taking advantage, he patted his ass and wanted to leave. How could anything be so cheap in the world? Yu Xiaotian immediately ordered the fleet to turn around and bypass the left side of Treasure Island.

On the side, cut off He Guang's fleet.

After seeing the command flag of the Sea Wolf, the captains of the remaining four ships immediately turned the rudders together and adjusted the course. The fleet sailed to the left, directly bypassing the southwest corner of Treasure Island, and passing through the isolation camp and Treasure Island.

directly pass between them.

The distance between Isolation Island and Treasure Island is only about one mile. The water depth in this area is relatively shallow, and there are some underwater reefs. Most people would not dare to just pass through here if they don't understand the situation, but for the sea wolves

For example, this is the doorstep of their home. How could they not know the depth? In order to gain time to intercept He Guang, they took the risk to pass directly between the two islands one by one, and soon went around to the west of Treasure Island.

noodle.

He Guang was leading his fleet around the north side of Treasure Island at this time, but within a short time he was caught head-on by Sea Wolf's fleet.

Seeing that it was impossible to hide, they originally wanted to avoid the fight, but the Sea Wolf side refused to let them go. They bypassed Treasure Island and continued to intercept them. If they turned around again, they would be completely passive.

Although He Guang is not very capable, he has been at sea with Zhang Hu and the others for such a long time. Even a pig should have learned a lot.

So seeing that there was no way to escape, He Guang had no choice but to bite the bullet and give the order to fight, letting his three boats guard his ship, and pointed the bow at the oncoming sea wolf fleet.

Yu Xiaotian stared at He Guang's ship and waved his hand to order the Sea Shark and Sea Lion to disperse to both sides. The remaining Seal and Sea Eagle followed the Sea Wolf and locked the target on He Guang.

on that boat.

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer. Before they could get within a hundred meters, He Guang's ship began to fire cannons. After the sound of the cannons, several cannonballs immediately roared and hit the Sea Wolf fleet.

Several waves arose among Sea Wolf's fleet, and the Sea Lion at the front was actually shot first, and a piece of the ship's plank was broken into pieces on the bow.

However, the ships of Sea Wolf had already made plans and were unmoved at all. They continued to maintain their course and rushed straight towards He Guang's fleet. Hu Cheng's Sea Lion and the Sea Shark temporarily led by Meng Fei immediately rushed towards He Guang's men.

After the two boats got close, they immediately fired their guns and fired at them.

The two sides immediately began to engage in close combat, and the sound of cannons suddenly became intensive. The gunners on the ships on both sides fired their cannons one after another, and the sound of cannons came one after another, resounding throughout the surrounding area of ​​Treasure Island.

It didn't take long for the nine ships to get entangled together. The Sea Wolf's ships were faster, so they were more flexible than the Shark Gang's ships. As soon as the two sides fought, the Sea Lion and the Sea Shark went their separate ways.

Tangled up a ship under He Guang's men, and then Yu Xiaotian took his ship, the Seal, and the Sea Eagle, and quickly inserted into the enemy's formation, connecting the two ships under He Guang's men with He Guang's

Separated by boat.

The three boats didn't care about the first boat under He Guang's command, and headed straight for the lucky boat where He Guang was sitting. However, the boat under He Guang's men had originally intended to block Yu Xiaotian's boat.

, but Yu Xiaotian's ship was a lucky ship. The ship was much larger than his, and it was stronger. It actually used the big one to bully the small one. The ship's speed did not decrease, its course did not change, and it headed directly towards the rushing ship.

Hit it.

He Guang's men who were leading the shuttle boat were so frightened that they screamed and quickly turned the rudder to avoid it. In a hurry, they finally managed to avoid the collision of the Sea Wolf.

The moment the two ships passed by each other, several smoking objects flew out from the Sea Wolf and crashed onto their ship. In the blink of an eye, they saw a flame rising from the shuttle boat.

, causing the members of the Shark Gang on the shuttle boat to scream in surprise.

The sea wolves paid no attention to the sailing boat. After driving it away, they continued to pounce on He Guang's boat.

He Guang was not stupid. He was also keeping an eye on the movements of the Sea Wolf boats just now. When he saw the two Sea Wolf boats, like two vicious dogs, they pounced on the two boats on either side of him and bit them.

, refused to let go, and followed the two boats to bite together. The other three sea wolf boats separated the two boats on both sides of their own and rushed towards themselves.
