Daming pirates

While Yu Xiaotian was waiting to watch the good show in Dazhai, Meng Fei in the shopping mall area was not idle either. While eating, he lay on the wall of the village and looked towards the place where Chu Cai was old.

He asked a subordinate next to him slurring his words: "Look, how far is Mr. Chu Cai's place from our place?"

The subordinate squinted his eyes and replied, "Two and a half miles at most! It shouldn't be much different!"

Meng Fei nodded and said: "It's about the same as I estimated, a little more than two miles! Mr. Chu Cai has learned a lesson without gaining any wisdom! How dare he put his village under my nose! Two and a half miles! It should be about the same.

Enough!"

When one of his subordinates following Meng Fei heard what Meng Fei said, they felt that they had bad ideas coming up again this time, so they quickly asked: "Commander Meng, have you come up with something else to torment those bastards?"

Is there a good idea? Tell me what to do! Let’s prepare quickly!”

Meng Fei finished picking up the rice, threw the bowl to his men to wash, turned around and squatted down and said with a bad smile: "Of course, who am I? Can you let the man named Chu sleep peacefully before he comes to beat us again?"

***, I’m going to keep him awake tonight!

Don’t we also have a few cannons here? Can anyone tell me how far that long cannon can hit?”

Now after some adjustments, the defense matters of Dazhai and the merchant area have also been placed under the jurisdiction of Zhan Barracks. In the past, Zhan Barracks always wanted cannons, but Yu Xiaotian didn't give them to them, and only gave them some newly cast light cannons.

Li Dazui and Meng Fei were very dissatisfied.

But now after the fort was established, the defense of these places was handed over to the war barracks, and these coastal defense guns were also handed over to the war barracks. At this time, both Li Dazui and Meng Fei trembled, finally having their own cannons.

So they were very satisfied with this, and would lead others to toss these cannons when they had nothing to do. They secretly competed with the brothers in the fleet, always wanting to compare with them whose cannons could fire accurately.

But this thing is incomparable. The guns on the ship cannot compare with these shore guns. The shore guns are fired from a stable platform on the shore. The shooting accuracy is definitely better than the guns on the ship. At the same time, it also

It can shoot far, so Meng Fei and the others have never been able to get a chance to show off the power of their gunners.

Now his chance finally came. Yu Xiaotian asked him to come to the merchant area to take charge. Although he was clearly told that he was not allowed to lead troops to attack without authorization and that he had to defend the merchant area, he was not prohibited from firing cannons and did not stipulate anything.

You can fire at any time, and you can fire at any place.

This once again allowed Meng Fei to take advantage of the situation. When it got dark, he began to sit on the wall of the village and stared at Chu Cailao's camp, thinking about it. At this time, he finally thought of a good idea.

"Commander Meng, if the long cannon here (twelve-pound long cannon) is used at a high angle of fire, we have tried it before and can hit it as far as four miles away. But according to the results of the leader's test, this

The effective range of the door cannon is approximately

It's about five hundred steps, and it won't be accurate if it's further away! Generally speaking, the boss stipulates that unless there are special circumstances, you must ensure that you fire within a mile to avoid firing randomly and wasting ammunition!" As soon as Meng Fei finished his question,

A gunner next to him answered.

Meng Fei chuckled and stood up, punched the gunner commander heavily on the shoulder and said with a smile: "This is enough! I don't care whether the shot is accurate or not! Four miles? That's enough! Haha! Special circumstances,

Now I think it's a special situation! Chu Cai has set up his camp right under our noses, why don't we let us fight?

Today, the big boss here has said, let me have the final say, go! Give me the long cannon and find a way to get it here! Set it up here for me, aim it at Chu Cai Lao's camp, listen to me later

As ordered, give me a fucking blow!

By the way, do you have enough ammunition? If it’s gone after just a few hits, this cannon will be useless!”

"Don't worry, Commander Meng, we have plenty of ammunition here! The boss gave us orders in advance and a large amount of ammunition has been sent to us, which is enough for us to fight for a while! At least we won't be able to finish it in a few days!" The gunner heard this.

He became happy and quickly answered with his chest raised.

"That's it! Go, find more people to help, find a way to get the cannon, move the cannon first, and put it in another place. It will definitely be used tomorrow!" Meng Fei clapped his hands and ordered.

The people below became excited as soon as they heard it. Meng Fei's performance today was really eye-opening to their subordinates. They usually knew that Grimace Meng Fei was very courageous, but they didn't expect that he was so courageous, and he only brought twenty people with him.

Brother, you dare to stand outside the stockade and watch the one or two hundred men of Mr. Chu Cai rush towards them without changing their expressions. With this, brother, they beat the shit out of Mr. Chu Cai's men.

, chased him all the way out!

So now this group of soldiers can simply describe their admiration for Meng Fei. After he came here, the Sea Wolf tribe here felt more confident. Now Meng Fei has made it clear that he will have a big trouble tonight.

After a while, these guys followed Meng Fei in order to avoid chaos in the world. After repeatedly agreeing, they immediately went down and started to prepare.

The 12-pounder long gun was originally placed on the fort near the north gate of the Trade Warehouse District. It was mainly used to deal with incoming enemy ships on the sea. The production of the 12-pounder long gun Seawolf is not large, but this guy

The range is more than one-third that of the twelve-pounder cannon, and the same caliber is more powerful.

The force is also greater than that of the short cannon, the trajectory is straighter, and the firing accuracy exceeds that of other six-pound cannons and twelve-pound cannons. The longest range is four or five miles away. If the gunpowder is overloaded,

, the maximum range can be further, and now it is mainly used by Yu Xiaotian as a shore gun.

It's a pity that the weight of this kind of gun is a bit too much. Nowadays, there are very few ships on Sea Wolf's warships that can withstand its recoil. Otherwise, Yu Xiaotian would have arranged a large number of castings and equipped them in the fleet.

.

As a result, the war barracks are now at a disadvantage, making them quite proud of having such a powerful weapon. Today they can finally show their faces again!

Meng Fei said it was easy, but he wanted to move the 12-pound long cannon weighing 1,600 to 700 kilograms to the east of the village. Even though the distance was not that far, when he really wanted to move it, it was not

An easy thing.

Meng Fei called dozens of soldiers to go to the north gate fort first, and took the cannon from the fort with great difficulty, and then pulled it from the village to the east gate. Fortunately, there were many cattle in the village.

They brought two tendon oxen over to help with the harness, and then dragged the cannon to the East Gate Fort.

It would take a lot of effort to get this cannon to the East Gate Fort. Dozens of people did not dare to shout loudly, so they could only hold their breath and use all their strength to use the windlass to lift the cannon.

After pulling it to the turret, reposition the gun mount, and then perform calibration adjustments.

This process sounds simple, but by the time they finished it, it was already midnight. After all, this was just a stockade, not a solid city wall. There were wide enough passages on it for them to drag the heavy artillery around and adjust it.

, and the upper part of the village wall is just a platform for people to pass. People can stand on it to defend, but it cannot withstand the nearly two thousand kilograms of cannons passing on it.

So they can only use this stupid method to do it, so it is inevitable that it will take time.

Although it was dark at night, the lights in Chu Cai's camp were still bright. Although Chu Cai didn't plan to attack the sea wolf's stronghold at night, he also guarded against the sea wolf sneak attack on his camp at night, so he arranged for people to be there specially.

Many bonfires were lit around the camp, and the bonfires in the village were not extinguished. The surroundings of the camp were illuminated brightly. If anyone tried to get close to their camp at night, they would be discovered immediately.

But when they did this, they never expected that they would provide Meng Fei with excellent target instructions. Meng Fei and the gunners on the fort could conveniently observe and carry out operations through the bonfires in Chu Cai's old camp.

aim.

Meng Fei asked the time: "When is it now?"

"Commander Meng, it's almost the third watch!" There are people in the shopping mall area and Dazhai who keep track of time, and then use the clock to inform the people in the village of the time, so they can be more accurate.

Know the approximate time now.

Meng Fei thought about it and said with a smile: "That's almost it! These bastards have traveled a long distance. It takes at least three or four days to get here from Dongshan Island. Today, they have been working hard for another day, and they are almost exhausted!

It’s time for everyone to go to sleep now! Let’s help refresh them!

By the way, let's go down and inform our brothers in various places first. Don't be nervous for a while. When you should sleep, stuff your ears and eyes with cotton wool. You can sleep as well as you want! It's none of their business! Send another brother who is agile and legible to go out.

Go back to Dazhai and tell them not to be nervous if there are firecrackers here. Just say that we are here to cheer up those bastards like Mr. Chu Cai!

You guys are going to work hard tonight and follow me to refresh these bastards! Just don’t let them sleep peacefully!"

Even though Meng Fei was brave, he was not rough-minded. He had thought of all the things he needed to think about in advance. He saved a while and ordered the firing. Although he made Mr. Chu Cai unable to sleep, he also messed up the people on his own side.

If he can't sleep, then Yu Xiaotian will really not be able to spare him!

Around midnight, Old Chu Cai's camp, which had gradually become quiet, suddenly started to get lively again. Some of Old Chu Cai's men who had already laid down to sleep suddenly felt a turbulence in their stomachs, and there was a rush of excitement.

The cramping feeling in their buttocks woke them up from their dreams, and then a strong urge to defecate struck them.

So many people quickly got up and found a place to run and have diarrhea. Soon more and more people started to get up, holding their stomachs and running around looking for a place to squat.
