Reborn As a Pirate

Remember in a second【】

Bad things come late, but never under.

In particular, Lorraine also dressed up as the neighbor Lao Wang and smashed open the door of the earl's house, breaking the surveillance camera on the courtyard wall. As long as the face is covered, the thieves can act in the name of Lao Wang, and there is no need to worry about the aftermath The question of revenge.

The Earl of Galvez, before the end of the New Orleans Defense War, he was the most cost-effective persecution target in contemporary America, and he was not one of them.

The assassination that the British had been preparing for more than ten days finally started.

The first shot took place in the middle of the jungle. In the south of the jungle, a resting team fell into a trap. After paying a heavy price of three deaths and three injuries, they managed to rely on the overgrown oak trees to regain their disadvantage. The Indians formed a stalemate.

Before the information of the encounter had time to be transmitted back to Lieutenant Colonel Erwin in the distance, the battle broke out across the board, spreading from the south to the north.

The gunshots quickly alarmed the earl's guard walking by the lake. Karen and Arrow, who was sitting in the stand-in carriage, looked at each other, and ordered the guards to change formation and pass through the war zone as quickly as possible.

They did not summon Lorraine, and the current situation did not require a special summons at all.

The sailors arranged by Lorraine on the foremast watchtower never let the earl's convoy out of sight, and the news of their change of formation reached Lorraine's ears immediately.

"Is there a war?"

Lorraine jumped up, squinting and looking at the calm lake in front of him.

"Comprehensively inspect the water area five kilometers ahead! Every ship must be thoroughly inspected! Gun ports, decks, don't miss a single artillery piece!"

"Raise the Jolly Roger! Helmsman in position! Sail in position! Gunner in position! Katerina, command the guns! Noah, let the sailors run!"

There was a rush on the deck, and the sailors on the Jackdaw, whose cooperation was not tacit understanding, arrived at their posts as quickly as possible under the command of 20 veteran sailors.

The gun doors on both sides opened one after another, and the black muzzle poked out from the gun cabin, facing the lake.

Pierce quickly spotted the target.

"At 12 o'clock, a distance of 3 kilometers, a Schooner type; at 2 o'clock, a distance of 5.5 kilometers, a Brigantine, with the guns wide open; at 10 o'clock, a distance of 2 kilometers, a Sloop type , Artillery was found on the deck!"

"Three ships!" Lorraine gritted her teeth,

"Tell Keren to slow down and avoid the bombardment line. The Jackdaw assaults, the square sails and wing sails are fully opened, and the target is the Sloop, go forward!"

...

go ahead!

The Jackdaw has the top-level high-speed ship design, and it sails with the wind. With the sails and wing sails fully opened, even in the breeze, it still barely reaches a speed of more than 6 knots.

The Sloop, which was close at hand, focused all its attention on the earl's guard who was about to reach the best shooting position, and almost stopped on the lake. The Jackdaw quickly climbed to 11 kilometers per hour, broke through the water, and sailed forward. .

In just a moment, Lorraine, who was standing at the bow, saw the shadow of Sloop's sail.

Pierce yelled overhead: "Brigantine is abnormal! She has spotted us and is charging us!"

"Guards slow down! Earl's guards have slowed down, trying to approach the jungle! Land encounter!"

Lorraine turned her head violently!

The guards encountered the enemy at the edge of the forest. There were about a dozen of them, but their formation was not strict, nor did they form a steady stream.

This kind of enemy is not so much an intentional ambush as it is a straggler who was driven out of the forest, and was quickly pressed back into the forest in front of the guards waiting in full force.

Lorraine breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered loudly: "Kron can take care of these fragmentary Indians! Regardless of them, the course remains the same! Bow guns, shotguns!"

Scattered iron beads weighing 18 pounds were poured into the bow heavy gun at the fastest speed, and under the command of Katerina, they aimed at the low and simple Sloop-type sloop directly ahead.

The clumsy fake fishing boat didn't start to react in a decent way until then. The panicked sailors hoisted the schooner, forgetting that they lowered the anchor to the bottom of the lake in order to stabilize the ship as much as possible...

The Sloop is 500 meters away, the Schooner is 1.5 kilometers away, and the Brigantine is 2 kilometers away.

Katerina yelled, "Fire!"

With two bangs and a bang, the heavy guns on the bow of the ship, which had high hopes, hit the empty space without any suspense, causing a large splash of water.

Lorraine had no expression on his face, folded his arms, and just ordered the Jackdaw to go straight!

400 meters, 300 meters...

The Sloops finally pulled up their anchors, flung their gaffs, and tried to flee.

Lorraine raised his head and glanced at Brigantine, who was showing the shadow of the sail in the northwest: "Both sides are ready for shelling, solid ammunition is loaded, the helmsman is on standby, and the schooner is on standby. Rangefinder, report every 50 meters."

"yes!"

"The distance is 250, the distance is 200, ... the distance is 100, the distance is 50!"

"Right rudder fifteen! Turn sail!" Lorraine ordered loudly.

Hannah turned the steering wheel as soon as Lorraine gave the order, without even waiting for the sound to reach her ears. The huge hull of the Jackdaw draws a huge roll arc, and almost completes the turn close to the little Sloop.

Huge waves arose on the surface of the lake, and the huge waves clung to the small boat shadow, lifting her up, and up again!

"Full launch on the port side, open fire!"

boom! Boom boom boom! Boom!

A total of 10 twelve-pound artillery pieces fired in turn, and at a distance of more than 20 meters, almost at the same height, they took turns to bombard the helpless Sloop.

Lorraine saw with his own eyes the desperate faces of the sailors on board

^0^ Remember in a second【】

.

This expression didn't last long. With the right time, place and people, even if Katerina was not good at artillery combat, two out of ten shells hit Sloop's hull.

And for this kind of boat, a twelve-pound run is enough to tear her apart...

"Confirmed! Sloop is sunk!" The orders on the watchtower sounded one after another, "Brigentine's distance is 700! The relative speed is 7.5 knots, and the side is ready!"

"Starboard shelling, target directly ahead of the water, open fire!"

Lorraine issued an incredible order, and Katerina had no time to think about it, so she immediately complied.

The Jackdaw, which was turning its rudder, launched a bombardment towards the empty lake. Ten shells roared and blasted the water surface, and the splashed water formed water mist, which blocked the way in front of Brigantine and also blocked the Jackdaw. .

But the responses of the two are vastly different.

The Jackdaw returned to the rudder and plunged headlong into the water mist. In order to avoid the possibility of collision in the fog area, Brigantine chose to continue to widen the angle and move forward in a roundabout way.

"Plan to evade the battle by cutting the ship, go around and bombard the Earl's convoy? How can there be such a cheap thing in the world..." Lorraine shook his head with a sneer, "Go up and cut the enemy's bow! Prepare for shelling on the port side! Prepare for boarding! Prepare for collision !"

He strode down the forecastle deck, and the orders in his mouth didn't stop.

"The boarding time is limited to five minutes, Noah, call 30 sailors to board the ship with me."

"Yes, Captain!"

"Pierce continued to monitor the distant Skuner, Katrina took over the command of the Jackdaw, and Henna continued to take the helm. After receiving the ship, the warships continued. Your mission is to sink or capture the Skuner. Don't let that little Guy ran away!"

"Yes! Captain!"

Lorraine took a deep breath: "The taste of victory, and the taste of harvest... Jackdaw, go forward."

Crash!

Breaking through the waves, the high bow of the Jackdaw tore through the mist and rushed straight forward!

Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
