The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

Chapter 885: The Legend of Yankee Ghani (2)

"Look, it's raining!" Yankee Garney said.

The rain and sand were underground, but not too big, making the sky dark quickly.

Mozart lamented and said, "Unfortunately, there is not much rain, there is rain but no wind, and if there is wind, we may be able to use the wind to get rid of the cruiser."

"Mr. Mozart, will you do something for me?" Yankee Garni said.

"Okay Captain, I am waiting for your orders!" Mozart replied.

"You make a raft, erect some pillars, go to the cargo hold, take one of our backup stern lights, install it on it, and put three or four small lights on it. Be careful not to let the Chinese see your actions! "

Mozart's eyes lit up suddenly, he understood the captain's intentions, and hurriedly prepared.

A large stern light in the middle of the stern tower of the Golden Deer was lit, reflecting the windows of the stern tower of the Golden Deer.

The cruise ship chasing behind was also lit up. The sailors on the Golden Deer watched jealously on the cruise ship. There were huge bow lights, stern lights, and even searchlights!

A searchlight is actually a mirror-reflected firelight, and a lamppost is directed straight ahead.

Fortunately, the rain curtain cuts down a lot of light, but it can also shine so brightly that the Golden Deer may disappear from time to time.

There is plenty of light, which is helpful for boat trips at night.

But even for Hong Maofan, lighting up like this is very extravagant. It's not bad to have a stern light on the boat at night. Often only a few candles are needed to stay in the cabin, and the rest are sleeping.

Yankee Ghani is familiar with the Chinese and knows that the Chinese grow countless palm oil, and they still have oil, so it’s no problem that their ports, cities, and ships use oil.

He noticed that the cruise ship dropped its top sail, and the cruise ship without top sail looked like a black shadow against the dark purple sky.

Every three minutes or so, Hong Maofan saw the orange-red fire from their bow, and then heard the sound of its guns.

The Golden Deer was not hit by a shell.

The red sailors sneered, "They are so much gunpowder!"

"Yes, they really have too much gunpowder!" Yankee Ghani said. "They have a lot of gunpowder. It is obvious that they are training at night, using us as targets."

Everyone thought greedily, "Chinese are so rich!"

Following another hour, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there was still no wind. The two ships were moving in the dark night sea, the cruiser was shining, and the lights of the Golden Deer appeared and disappeared in the rainy night.

Judging from the lights, the cruise ship seemed to slow down, still biting behind them, but the searchlights had gone out.

Mozart came and told him, "The raft is ready!"

"Put the raft down from the stern." Yankee Garney instructed.

The sailor and a few people knocked the raft down from the side of the boat.

On the raft stood a village as high as the stern railing, on which was hung a spare stern lamp, and four small lamps lined up under the pillar.

"Who is more flexible and agile?" Yankee Garney asked.

"DuPont." Mozart replied.

"Then DuPont." Yankee Garney said.

"Captain?" the young boy DuPont asked.

"Take this thing, the Chinese flare, I will send you to the raft. When the light on our boat goes out, I will light the light on the raft."

"Okay, Captain, just kill it!"

This is a contest of tactics. The bow of the Golden Deer chopped through the waves, and the sea rushed back. If anyone on the cruise ship is eye-catching, you might find the weird behavior of the Golden Deer stern through the binoculars, but now The task has been completed, DuPont is like a smart monkey ship over the bulwark back to the dark open deck.

"Good job!" Yankee Garney whispered, "Let it go."

The captain loosened the rope in his hand, and when they completely loosened the rope of the connected raft, Yankee Garney felt the Golden Deer tremble slightly.

The sailor did a good job. The simulated lights on the raft were too similar to those of the big ship, and the sailor used an old rope to install a cross frame for the headlights to pretend to be window ridges, which may be able to fool the eyes of the Chinese.

Yankee Ghani stared at the raft for a long time, and then said, "Mast sail!" The sailor on the mast climbed up and disappeared into the sail suit. Everyone on the deck stood there motionless seriously, looking at each other. It seems to be waiting for the ruling of God in general.

The sails unfolded, the wind pressure increased sharply, the Golden Deer accelerated, and the lights behind the ship gradually weakened.

The rain was getting heavier and some people got out of the cabin, but Yankee Ghani and others remained on the open deck.

It seemed that everything was normal, and the tension eased a bit. In an instant, everyone’s attention was diverted, because the cannons on the cruise ship began to fire, and the guns rang out again and again. It was attacking that. Raft!

God bless!

Some people crossed and watched the Chinese fire as if it was irrelevant. The cruise ship obviously used the side cannon to bombard the raft, and it had been hit by the port side cannon, and changed to the starboard cannon. It was full of joy, and finally, the light on the raft went out, and then the sea returned to silence.

"Do they think we are sinking?" the sailor asked uncertainly.

"Perhaps!" Yankee Ghani said vaguely, and the cruiser did not follow him far from his finger!

The Golden Deer did not light up the lights anymore, and was sailing at night. When the first light appeared, neither the sailor on the masthead nor the sailor who used the barrel telescope to observe the cruise ship reported that no trace of the cruise ship was found.

"This is good news, we are finally getting rid of them!" Yankee Ghani pondered, either leaving the cruiser far behind, or the cruiser has been chasing in another direction, or to the west, Or heading north, while the Golden Deer heads northwest. (Later, the report on the cruise ship 116 admitted that they had spent too much time chasing the cunning Hong Maofan’s false target. The Chinese finally woke up, but the Hong Maofan ship had been lost.)

No longer chased by cruisers, Yankee Ghani put the telescope on his stomach and put away the barrel (monocular lens~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The strong sunlight pierced him and he had to squint. eye.

He was tired. After all, he didn't sleep all night, but he was very excited. People persuaded him to sleep for a while. He obeyed and entered the cabin heavily. After a while, he fell into a dream, extremely relaxed!

"Lucky" Yankee Ghani escaped, and the trip was smoother. They headed northwest, then northeast, towards the Maluku Islands.

Luck is more than that.

At this time, the defenders of the southeastern palace of the Maluku Islands had just ceased. Earlier some red-headed boats came and harassed them. If they were sunk or driven away by them, they were nowhere to be seen. The defenders were in a state of slack. Time period.

Of course, Yankee Ghani rushed to attack the Maluku Islands, which was also a dead end. Although there is no cruise ship squadron here, there are more than 30 frigates. The Golden Deer is the first frigate. It's choking!

The wise Yankee Ghani will not do thankless things by himself. His eyes are on Obi Island, a small island rich in nutmeg!
