Daming pirates

Although Yu Xiaotian has not issued any orders since the beginning of the war, he has always stood upright on the arrow tower, as still as a statue.

And his presence has indeed brought a sense of security to his subordinates. His subordinates have been accustomed to his existence. As long as they see his figure, these subordinates will feel a sense of comfort.

, although Yu Xiaotian did nothing, he told these Sea Wolf tribesmen that he was with them and by their side.

With such a person standing with them, what else is there to be afraid of?

Also outside the stockade, Mr. Chu Cai was also standing far away from the stockade, looking towards the direction of the stockade, and slowly pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, with veins on his forehead pulsing like a trapped animal.

Face full of anxiety.

More than half an hour has passed since he ordered the attack on the stronghold. The sound of Sea Wolf's cannons has not stopped since the beginning. Dust and smoke can be seen flying from time to time on the battlefield outside the stronghold. His men

They rushed forward, but like the tide crashing on the rocks, they dispersed into red waves.

Things were obviously much more difficult than he thought. He could tell that his men tried their best today, but they encountered a very difficult nut to crack.

The preparations for the Sea Wolf Dazhai were much better than he expected, and there was no doubt that the Sea Wolf's firepower was very sharp. From a distance, one could clearly see the big guns flashing out from time to time on the walls of the Sea Wolf Dazhai.

Large and small fires, these fires are the flames ejected from the muzzles of cannons and muskets. The smoke of gunpowder continues to rise from the walls of Dazhai and fills the sky above Dazhai.

Moreover, he could also hear the dense sound of gunfire coming from the distance. Although there were many firing sounds from his men, the sound of gunfire, which was as dense as exploding beans, could not have come from his men.

This shows that Sea Wolf has a considerable number of "bird guns" in his hands. He was not very interested in things like bird guns before, and he has also played with these things. He feels that this thing is just a fake, although it can be shot.

It's not close, but the accuracy is very lacking and the power is not great. The most important thing is that this thing consumes gunpowder and is very troublesome to load. It takes a long time to fire one shot before firing again. It is not even as good as a three-eyed gun.

.

Moreover, this thing often fails to fire, it cannot be used when it rains, it cannot be used when it is too humid, and it cannot be used easily at night. Once the enemy gets close, this thing is just a fire stick. Whoever holds this thing will

All we can do is wait to be slaughtered.

So he would rather have a three-eyed blunderbuss than ask for more of this thing. In his early years, he had dealt with the Folangji people and wanted to buy some cannons from the Folangji people, but the Folangji people were unwilling to sell him cannons.

They were willing to sell him some of their blunderbuss, but Mr. Chu Cai refused such a deal at first, thinking that the blunderbuss were of little use and that they were not as convenient as crossbows.

But today when he listened and looked at the rows of muskets placed on the wall of Hailang Village, he seemed to feel that he might be wrong. This man named Yu should be familiar with firearms and equipped his men with so many muskets.

The thing shouldn't be as bad as he thought, and he kept hearing the screams of his men coming back from the front, which also showed that his men were suffering a lot of casualties under the village at the moment.

Unfortunately, he did not have a telescope at hand that could effectively observe the situation on the battlefield. He could only vaguely see that the battlefield seemed to be very lively.

He saw that his men seemed to be blocked outside the stronghold wall, and could not reach the bottom of the stronghold wall for a long time. Even a long ladder was not erected for such a long time, which meant that the men in front encountered

Trouble.

Chu Cailao walked back and forth for a long time, suddenly stopped, gritted his teeth and ordered to his subordinates: "Bring up those two Hongyi cannons and set them up for me to shoot at their stronghold! Make sure to kill them."

The stronghold was blown away! I don’t believe it anymore, I can’t take down this stronghold!”

The subordinates quickly agreed and called a large group of people to get busy. When they landed yesterday afternoon, they tried every means to unload the two Hongyi cannons on their ship to the shore through large rafts, but this thing was really heavy.

It was too heavy. Each gun together with the gun mount weighed more than 2,000 kilograms, and the gun mount only had four small wooden wheels, making it very difficult to move.

These two cannons are also the five Hongyi cannons that Mr. Chu Cai bought from Fo Langji at a great expense. They have always been regarded by Mr. Chu Cai as the treasure of the village. This time, in order to deal with Yu Xiaotian, he went with the ship.

Two doors were brought with them, two of the remaining three doors were left on the ship, and one door was left in Dazhai, Dongshan Island.

These two cannons are indeed quite good. They are 18-pound cannons. Their effective range can reach one kilometer, and their longest range can even reach four kilometers. They have always been regarded as darlings by Chu Cai, and he sent people to guard them carefully.

.

But today, in order to capture the Sea Wolf Stronghold, Mr. Chu Cai had to invite them out. When he started to attack the stronghold, he still had certain illusions and did not want to use these two Hongyi cannons easily, but now

When he saw his men being beaten outside Hailang Dazhai, they were on their backs. Seeing that there were signs of defeat, he no longer had any illusions. He ordered the two cannons to be pushed up and joined the attack on the stronghold.

among the ranks.

In addition to these two cannons, Mr. Chu Cai also had some large boxes unloaded from the ship and carried aboard. Anyone with a discerning eye can see at a glance that these large boxes are actually a kind of Ming Dynasty in this era.

Firearms are the famous swarm of rockets.

In order to deal with the officers and soldiers on the shore, or to deal with some forts that resisted fiercely, Chu Cailao has accumulated a large number of swarm rockets through self-made or purchased methods over the years. This kind of thing is simpler to make than artillery.

, consumables are also easier to obtain. The key is that as long as the problem of gunpowder is solved, it can be produced.

Usually, Chu Cai is always reluctant to bring out so many swarms to deal with a village. When necessary, he often gets two boxes. Once the launch starts, it can have a good effect of deterring the enemy, but today Chu Cai is also reluctant to use them.

He couldn't care about that anymore, so he ordered dozens of barrels of these things to be unloaded from the ship, and prepared to send them aboard as well, giving the Sea Wolf tribe a good look.

But just when Chu Cailao was planning to take out the powerful guy at the bottom of the box, the battle ahead had already undergone huge changes.

Although Chu Cai Lao's men had acted bravely just now, after a series of successive attacks to no avail, and on the contrary, they were beaten with corpses strewn outside the village wall, these Chu Cai Lao's men finally couldn't hold on any longer.

Seeing that the brothers in front were knocked to the ground one by one by the Sea Wolf tribe, but they were still unable to get close to the wall, many of the gangsters finally couldn't stand it anymore.

First, some minions were running around, holding back, wandering back and forth at a distance of about a hundred meters, not daring to move forward. However, some of them were still knocked to the ground by stray bullets from the Sea Wolf, so they didn’t know who was responsible.

Chu Cailao's men suddenly began to retreat with a roar, and the shopkeepers among them could not stop them, so they had to be dragged back by the crowd.

As the saying goes, a defeat is like a mountain. Once one party is frustrated and loses its fighting spirit, it is basically impossible to prevent them from retreating. The more people there are, the more chaotic the situation will be. Today, Chu Cai Lao came up with two people.

There are more than a thousand people. When they are defeated, it is no longer possible for one or two people to stop them.

I saw that the remaining men of Mr. Chu Cai collapsed almost suddenly. First, a dozen people turned around and fled, then led dozens of people to follow, and then developed into hundreds of people being led to run together.

, in the end the remaining minions suddenly lost confidence, and all of them retreated together.

Don't look at them dawdling when they come, but once they run, these people's legs and feet are not slow at all. With a huff and a sound, more than two thousand people retreated like the tide. In a short time,

They quickly ran away two miles away.

What's even more ridiculous is that when they were defeated, the Sea Wolf tribe did not launch any pursuit action against them, and just allowed them to retreat. However, these Chu Cai Lao's men still ran away in panic one by one, some of them.

The man was so focused on escaping that he even threw the thing in his hand onto the battlefield and fled back empty-handed.

Looking at the open space outside Hailang Dazhai, there is now a strong smell of blood and fishy stench. From far to near, dead and wounded members of Chu Cai's men are discarded everywhere, and complete pieces of them are discarded everywhere.

Or the broken oar shields, long ladders, and even a few artillery pieces were thrown outside the village wall by Chu Cailao's men.

Especially at a distance of tens of meters outside the village wall, there is a layer of corpses and wounded people of old Chu Cai's men. Many people were injured and could not die for a while. They just lay on the ground whining and wailing. The whole place

A scene from Abi Hell.

Some of the wounded were not willing to die here, so they tried their best to crawl back, leaving traces of blood behind them. Some of the slightly injured saw their accomplices running away, and struggled to get up without any hope of seeking help.

, stumbling and leaning on some gun poles or daggers, supporting their bodies and retreating.

But how could Sea Wolf's subordinates let them go like this? Li Dazui ordered some of his sharpshooters to roll call one by one at Chu Cai's old men who were struggling and trying to escape on the battlefield. Gunshots almost rang out, and immediately

One of two wounded men under Chu Cai fell to the ground with a cloud of blood rising from his back. After struggling for a few times, he became motionless.

Someone made a rough inventory of the casualties among Chu Cai's old men outside the village. Although it was only a rough estimate, they still found that after this battle, the Sea Wolf had killed and injured nearly two hundred Chu Cai.

Cai Lao's subordinates, and this number can only be higher, not lower.

Looking back at the losses in Sea Wolf Dazhai, after counting, the figures were tallied and reported to Yu Xiaotian. Yu Xiaotian learned that after this period, only four of his men were killed in battle, most of them were killed by Mr. Chu Cai.

He died only after the arrows or shotguns fired by his subordinates hit his vital organs.

There were only less than twenty wounded, seven of whom were seriously injured, and the rest were mostly minor injuries. Some even did not lose their combat effectiveness. After cleaning the wounds a little and bandaging them, they returned to the team on their own.

On the wall of the village.

The ratio of casualties exchanged between the two sides was ten to one. It would not be an exaggeration to call it a great victory. When Chu Cailao's men retreated, a burst of thunderous cheers suddenly sounded from up and down the wall of the village, accompanied by

The Sea Wolf tribe members in the shopping mall area to the northeast also cheered loudly together.

(Thanks to Brother Ying Zhiwu for the reward! Haha!)
