Our side: I have n’t thought about the name yet, but it ’s probably a pirate gang, a warship.

"Siren", a five-star schooner brigantine.

Hull durability 1200 / Ship speed 14 knots / Armed 10 16 pound guns / 56 sailors on board

——————————————

Sea conditions, 74 # Island, South East Coral Reef Islands, Port of Trinidad, on the eve of the storm.

The three ships are less than two hundred meters apart. The old sailors roughly calculated the strength of the two sides. The difference between the artillery and the number of sailors is five times. The sailors on the Kraken are mostly scared. .

Even more because the "Siren" made a provocative gesture at the beginning, now the two ships of the other party are as if insulted! They do not care about the deterioration of the weather now. Not only will all the gun doors be opened, the cannon is launched! And every ship has hundreds of sailors standing on the side of the ship waving their scimitars and making noise! The bloodthirsty yelled and scolded, eager to rush over immediately, hacking up and down the "Siren"!

Just when the sailors were uneasy.

But their captain, the surly young nobleman, was still sitting on a wooden barrel near the wheel rudder, writing on the knee with a new cluster of "Captain's Diary," writing, quickly recording the scene before the war.

He picked up the telescope from time to time, carefully observed the situation opposite, to confirm the data he recorded one by one.

Auguste standing behind him. It is easy to see that he not only recorded the data comparison between the two sides of the naval battle. He even quickly drew a stick figure to clearly express the form of naval battles-the side of the battlefield is a ring-shaped coral reef, and the two ships opposite each other are in the shape of an eight. Clamp like iron tongs!

Read this picture. Auguste has completely convinced the young master.

Don't say anything else. At least from this picture, and then referring to the above data, you should be able to clearly judge. There will be no chance to fight head-on! Because of the headwinds, turning to escape is certainly not the opponent of many sailors' enemies. Only when you turn right immediately and enter the coral group with complicated sea conditions, there is a ray of life!

He shook his head. He didn't know where Lu Yuan's confidence came. He heard two ships and rushed straight over.

Auguste saw Lu Yuan standing up, and he immediately handed back the rudder with respect, waiting for him to show off his amazing driving skills-take everyone to escape quickly!

At least Lu Yuan's driving skills completely convinced him. If he is driving, there is no problem in running away!

Lu Yuan took the rudder and swung the ship to the right, as Auguste thought, approaching the coral island, which gave him a sigh of relief. August secretly made up his mind, intending to help suppress the disobedient sailors for a while. You know that every time the captain chooses to turn in, there are always one or two people who have brains out! When Auguste was the captain, he hated such a person to death! Now ... hehe.

"God! They have as many cannons as trees!" A pirate shouted exaggeratedly. With the appearance of the two large ships, the morale that had just been inspired by training fell rapidly, and it seemed that there was no limit to the limit.

Not to mention that the Galleon sailboat with tall stern tower looks like a castle blocking the route! Even the five-star "St Andrews" Caravel Clipper, which is the same as the "Siren", looks twice as large as the "Siren"! At this time, all of the artillery above it has launched the gun door, and there are twelve 16-pound cannons on each side, which looks abnormally terrible!

Caravel Express is a traditional old-fashioned cargo ship in Northern Europe. It usually has a tall bow and stern, famous for its huge transportation volume. The Galen ship is an improved version of the Caravel sailboat in response to the more complicated sea conditions when crossing the ocean. It reduces the caravel of the caravel, leaving only the tall ship stern. A kind of cargo ship with huge load.

In this era, high cargo capacity also means more artillery can be loaded! Have more powerful firepower! The Galen Sailboat and the Caravel Clipper in front of them were transformed by the pirates to the extreme-not only carrying a lot of sailors, but also having two artillery decks, the artillery is fully equipped!

"I know the" Obstacle ", they are just going the way this time. I heard that they are going to do a big deal! The number of people on their ship is at least five times that of us!" It was the pirate who was "breaking the news", Lu Yuan pointed. He glanced down secretly.

Can you fight! ?

This is never a problem.

"The left and right strings of artillery are loaded! The assault team is going to participate in the movement of artillery shells and gunpowder!" Lu Yuan ordered loudly, still steadily driving the boat close to the opposite side.

But the actions of the pirates began to become hesitant and procrastinated again.

Lu Yuan was speechless. Your sister's pirate! Simply silkier than silk! Looking forward and backward, bullying and fearing hard, simple mind and easy to bewitched, it seems that this is the real pirate! It has nothing to do with the heroic or sinister pirates in the movie! Lu Yuan felt that he was fed up again.

Is it really good that the scars forgot to hurt? Or is my smile too fascinating to make you think I am a good person?

Why don't you remember a little bit? ! Lu Yuan looked at the prepared chicken ...

That one has been spreading all kinds of trail "news". The pirate shaking the morale on the ship suddenly noticed that Lu Yuan was watching him! He took a few steps back in horror. While showing a reassuring smile, he crossed the boat without hesitation and jumped towards the sea!

He is a member of the "Aide Regiment", that is, the two pirate ships on the way, spying on other ships. Now he is clear on the situation of the Kraken, whether it is the strange witchcraft ring of the noble captain, or the more strange shelling hit rate, which has enough value.

Looking at the approaching Caribbean sea. He folded his hands together. Put a posture of entering the water, which will let him hide deeply under the water! As long as the first few minutes passed, Lu Yuan would have no time to catch him. Freedom is so close! He could already see himself swimming on the opposite ship. Then made a fortune with news. Go home and marry his wife.

unfortunately. Freedom is sometimes so far away!

A fast-moving cable rushed down like a venomous snake. The cable ignored his ankle. Directly attacked his neck! Because Lu Yuan just wanted to use his life to deter others, his life and death did not matter at all. The rope tied his neck without hesitation, tied a noose knot, and then yanked it up!

"Click", the sound of breaking the sugar cane sounded again.

By the time he was carried to the deck, he had become a dead man!

The pirate's tongue was sticking out, his head pulled aside, his face still had a weird smile-simple, brutal, Lu Yuan once again showed his blood to the crew without hesitation!

Forgetful pirates, it seems that at this time they really remembered that their captain was an out-and-out demon! Just half a day today, there have been as many as half a dozen people hanged by him! What am I hesitating before? ? In an instant, all the crew members ran rushing to start their life, fearing that Lu Yuan would be seen lazy!

Lu Yuan shook his head depressedly, and waited on the shore, the crew were afraid that no one could stay. Forget it ... Apart from a few, Lu Yuan really didn't want to leave anyone! He hit the wheel rudder, walked around the coral island, and headed for the upper hand!

The oncoming two ships seemed to have plans, they were separated to the left and right, in a posture of left and right.

"Captain?" Auguste stood next to him in silence, and finally whispered, "That ... our speed should be faster. If we hide in Coral Island now, it must be fine ..."

"August, you listen!" Lu Yuan interrupted his next words directly, and solemnly said, "I am not here to fight a defeat!"

"Siren" started the sprint performance. After she grabbed the first upwind direction, she turned just a small arc and circumvented the Galan sailboat "Obstacle" and came to "St Andrew" The position of the head The whole boat is incredibly flexible and agile!

"The first reason, our ships, the steering flexibility is 150% of the other party! Our ship speed is 200% of the other party! Look at their clunky look ?! Now only five or six winds, but they have already I could n’t stand in the sea. Want to catch up with us? It ’s like a dream! "

"Ready!" Lu Yuan raised his hat and shouted loudly. "The gunners are steady! You just need to listen to my order, and it's enough to light that line!" Lu Yuan comforted the gunners of the new melon eggplants, his hands counted down on the circle, "Three! Two! One!" "

His hand holding the hat waved down violently, "~!"

With Lu Yuan's order, the starboard side gradually ejected seven tongues of fire!

Auguste, the gunner, the stormtroopers carrying the sails, the sailors sailing, and even Jacques sitting on the top of the mast are staring at the flying iron ball, praying nervously.

At this time, the Kraken is 120 meters from the "St Andrews" and 90 meters from the "Barrier". The "St. Andrews" who had been robbed of his head, although he could not believe that they could hit the target from such a long distance, but in the face of the side volley, he also made an emergency avoidance gesture.

What can be imagined on the three ships, except for Lu Yuan, is that the Kraken is standing on the head of the St. Andrews, but twists his waist at the last moment to make the seven shells strong. Shot on the face of the "Barrier" nearby!

There are more than 90 meters between the two sides, and the Kraken has only the bow facing him! The "Obstacle" Galen ship did not anticipate that the "Siren" would suddenly turn around and shoot. As the Kraken turned around, the seven gradually fired shells were almost thrown into a straight line, directly bombarding the stern of the Galen ship on! And it's unbelievable seven times and six!

So the catastrophic consequences happened-although the 16-pound projectile could not penetrate the thick hull of the Galen ship at this distance, the stern tower was not included! The protection of sea ships has always been thick and thin.

The crew of the Kraken clearly saw six shots out of seven iron balls, and they were violently thrown on the stern of the Obstacle! Sawdust wood flakes fragile, broken tendons! And in a blink of an eye, a massive collapse occurred! Even the cannons arranged on the stern were exploded and fell into the sea!

As for the captain of the commander standing there ... I really can't read it!

"Oh!" The sailors of Kraken couldn't help but cheer! Although not very neat, but morale is clearly rising! The stiff movement just now can no longer be seen.

"The second reason, we will hit everything!" Lu Yuan said to August. Immediately he raised his voice and shouted, "Cool the barrel immediately and reload! Don't care about the life of the cannon! After this battle ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ We have new artillery!" The gunners cheered. The large bucket of seawater splashed down the barrel, causing the ship to lift up a large amount of steam. As the ship drove away at high speed, it was pulled into a strand of ribbon by the strong wind.

"But their boat, in this weather, the hit rate will be as low as a degree of luck. Caravel's hull design, due to the existence of tall bow and stern, the center of gravity of the hull is too high, originally It is only suitable for the calm North Sea ... "Lu Yuan concentrated on the ship that was steering the Kraken close to the other side, and explained to Auguste. "This kind of cargo ship is already bulky compared to the" Siren "which is good at grabbing the wind. Now it is the eve of the storm. When the sea is strong and the waves are high, the volley will only make their ship shake more. Is it shooting, It depends on their guts! "

As soon as the words fell, I saw the Caravel Clipper who grabbed the t head, and issued dozens of shellings intermittently. Although it did make their hull shake more in the storm, their courage was admirable!

Lu Yuan shook his head and flicked the rudder gently, avoiding the attack unharmed. "If we simply compare the quality of the crew, they are really much more powerful than us!"

August's face was flushed, but he couldn't utter a refute. (To be continued ...) ()
