Lu Yuan swung the rudder, and the "Siren" greeted it aloud!

The ship that came was slightly larger than the Kraken, a four-star Brigg brigantine. This sailboat has a speed of 15 knots, a turn of 45, and can be equipped with 16 24-pound guns and a sailor carrying about 150 people. It is the most ideal combat ship in the hands of pirates.

The sails of this kind of ship are equipped with four-layer sails for the main and auxiliary masts. There are three layers of mule sails at the bow and slanting sails at the back. Sometimes, Bermuda spinnakers are installed between the masts. This sail guarantees a good sailing speed whether it is downwind or upwind. The shortcomings are of course the disadvantages of horizontal sails compared to longitudinal sails, the wind is not agile enough.

This kind of sailing equipment was first created by the French super one-star legendary battleship "Sun King" and quickly spread throughout the Atlantic. The most suitable one is the four-star Brig sailing ship. Well recognizable. Lu Yuan had obtained enough information from the leaves before, and saw that the ships and sail suits are consistent. Although the flag is not the flag of Morgan, sometimes his men will also hang their own flags ingeniously, so Lu Yuan Still welcome without hesitation!

The two sides separated by a distance of 100 meters, both of them slowed down.

Lu Yuanyao took an appraisal, and the feedback information turned out to be "special vessel, unable to appraise", which made him a little uncomfortable.

The afternoon sun shines from the west, mapping the slightly undulating waves on the sea like a golden ocean.

Perhaps it was because of the performance of the battle of Lu Yuan Coral Island that the storm became his "gold finger". So after that, the goddess of the ocean changed his strategy to pit him-every time he wanted to fight, the wind speed never exceeded two, let the martial arts like a elegant duel, directly downgraded into a boxing fist to the melee .

Without wind and without big waves, Lu Yuan couldn't play more tricks, which made the battle of the Kraken more difficult.

When the weather was calm, it was limited to the level of the gunners. After lacking various environmental factors, the hit rate actually decreased, but it was not obvious. In contrast, under the breeze, the ship moves slowly, and the decline is more of the success rate of dodge shelling. This forced Lu Yuan to perform more calculations to predict the shooting angle and direction. But most of the time, when the opponent has superior firepower, Lu Yuan will adopt a strategy of splitting the strike, or simply giving up the goal.

Like having a tacit understanding, after entering the longest range of 100 meters, both slow-moving ships began to raise their sails and suddenly began to accelerate!

"Upper sail! Pulling up all the sails, I need power!" Lu Yuan shouted. The boat began to turn flexibly under his control. The speed is unimaginable. This is actually a breeze afternoon!

"Port side!" Lu Yuan's arms extended to the left, and the gunners rushed over with the fastest speed! They panted, raised their muscles, shouted horns, inspired each other, and pushed out a door filled cannon!

The shiny cast iron muzzle shone in the afternoon sunlight, shining in a quiet light!

"!" When the cannon was pushed out, the sails, hull posture and shooting angle just formed a perfect timing. Lu Yuan, who created this opportunity, ordered shelling without hesitation! "Let's say hello first!"

The gunners ignited the leads in unison, and they were able to distinguish when Lu Yuan asked for a volley and when to shoot gradually.

"The other party shelled!" Jacques shouted on the observation platform. Lu Yuan pointed at the position of the other party's ship. The sides of the two sides were facing each other. They were also in a favorable position! Lu Yuan turned the ship a little, and evaded to a certain extent. By this time, the deafening sound of artillery sounded, and both sides of the ship lifted the wall-like smoke from the side of the ship, and the side artillery salvo was officially excited!

"Avoid!" Hearing the strange roar of the opponent's shell, it was as accurate as the homing bee colony, and rushed straight towards the Kraken! Lu Yuan frowned tightly, driving the boat to avoid the bombardment of the other party, and commanded the sailors on the deck to hide! Without saying anything, the sailors used the most direct action to go down to the side of the ship, where the cargo piles and other places were drilled into! On the deck, only Lu Yuan remained standing there in an instant.

"Woo ~ oo ~" The projectiles of the shells ripped through the weird wind, and the hair flew past the hull! Everyone hiding was praying nervously, holding his breath. When the shelling was about to end, a loud noise of "Boom!" Finally, a shell hit the stern, and the captain's room was cut in half!

A mouth was opened on the **** of Kraken, as if bitten by a vicious dog. The sailors who climbed up looked at Captain Lu Yuan in awe, knowing that the shell just hit him at the foot! But Lu Yuan stood there steadily, even the expression of fear owed.

Lu Yuan turned the rudder blankly, and no one was in the captain's room. Apart from Elizabeth's plaything, there was probably no other loss. Lu Yuan swears that he never deliberately did not hide in order to renovate the captain's room!

The other party's shelling was unexpectedly accurate by Lu Yuan! If he just did not hide, it was 12 out of 7. This level can no longer be measured by the level of the Caribbean! Lu Yuan always thought that only he could do it. In this era of accurate long-range shooting, "it is like having a computer!"

"August, let's take a look at our loss. Jacques! Jacques!" He beckoned, greeted Jacques on the observation deck, and urged him, "Report the results!" Jacques seems to be out of the situation today. , He has actively reported the effect of the shelling.

"Captain! Unable to report! It ... is just like us!" Jacques didn't find the proper wording, so he could only describe it. Lu Yuan's mouth widened in surprise, like us? Are they hiding in the smoke? ! Jerk!

When the ship salvos, due to the insufficient combustion of gunpowder in this era, it will produce heavy smoke like walls on the sea! In the current sea conditions with only secondary winds, it takes at least two hours for the smoke produced by each salvo to completely dissipate. Therefore, Lu Yuan likes to do some small actions behind the smoke after shooting ... Luan Yuan looks at the hull he is turning to. Isn't the other party doing the same thing? ! Suddenly Khan Falls!

Lu Yuan was originally planning to blindly shoot on the side of the ship under the cover of smoke! According to Lu Yuan's prediction, at least 80% of them are sure to hit! But if the other party thinks the same way ... then does tm become a mutual explosion? ! Because the smoke is obscured by the smoke, you ca n’t see the other party ’s shooting angle and direction, so it ’s impossible to dodge!

In this case, Lu Yuan had no time to think about it. While the hull was now traversing, he directly steered the sails and traversed out of the dense smoke. Since you want to take one step, then I have to think about two steps! Lu Yuan pointed the port side of the ship to the opposite side of the smoke, and then reduced the speed of the ship to stay there, yelling, urging the gunners to load the gun on the starboard side!

Lu Yuan is waiting for the opponent to waste the starboard gun to attack the position before the Kraken! At the same time when the opponent leaked the position, our side and side artillery were full ... Oh roar roar! Lu Yuan's excited "Gam Gam Gam Bang" lifted his finger.

Ten seconds later, I did n’t wait for the bombardment, but the opponent also came out of the smoke from a symmetrical position ...

Lu Yuan was dumbfounded, and tmd wanted to go together again? ! What kind of birdman is it opposite? ! It's too insignificant! Actually wanted to yell at me.

Opposite ... This moment, obviously think so! The most obvious manifestation is that the bow of the ship shakes from side to side, obviously the captain is so surprised that the wheel rudder has been released!

"Your sister!" Lu Yuan scolded, "A group of two goes to the bow! Brig's Brig has no mortar! We come to play with him to hedge!" Towards the fort directly ahead. Lu Yuan sent the most accurate two groups of gunners to maneuver the chasing gun. That ’s because Lu Yuan can control the quay head of the side guns by maneuvering the left and right sides of the ship. Rely on the gunner.

Now the position of the two ships is exactly opposite the bow, Lu Yuan rushed straight over, because the distance is too short, the other party can only hedge, at this time the steering will be kicked and jumped! Your sister, you do n’t have a mortar, how can you fight me!

The Kraken arrogantly rushed over, and the first double gun shot of the pursuit gun directly hit the plane. The gunner did not rely on his aim for a long time to shoot ※ gun, obviously hand born. At this time, a large white smoke rose sharply on the deck of the bow of the ship opposite!

"What's that?" Lu Yuan murmured with some doubt.

"Mortar! They have a mortar!" Lu Yuan suddenly heard Jacques's tone-changing voice, screaming in a hurry, and seemed to be greatly frightened.

"Mortar?" Lu Yuan was a little puzzled and suddenly understood, your sister! It is a large caliber mortar! It's no wonder that Lu Yuan didn't expect that in this era, when ordinary direct-fire guns generally have a low hit rate, can large-caliber short-barreled curved guns also have the ability to win? ! At this time, the mortar gun should have been installed on the gunboat, and it was used to bomb such a huge target on the coast!

But the other party has a computer with tmd!

At this time, the terrible roaring sound had fallen from the sky ※ and fell! Lu Yuan's scalp started to tingle!

"Turn! You tmd turn it to me!" Lu Yuan turned the rudder quickly, but the ship could only move awkwardly a little bit to the right. As a result, when the ship only moved less than 30 cm, the head of the mortar's artillery shell fell down! This shelling was accurate and fierce. First of all, the sound of a slap, just rubbed to one side, cut off the observation deck of the ship in half!

Afterwards, the dropped shells hit the secondary mast and split the mast in two! The sub-mast, with rolled canvas and cables, tumbling down inward!

"Jacques! How are you, Jacques ?! Jacques!" Seeing Jacques flying by the trembling lookout, and then falling into the canvas pile when the mast fell, Lu Yuan could only yell and command the crew to rescue him immediately.

"I'm okay ... who will save me!" The sub-mast fell toward the main mast, tearing the large side sail on the main mast into a big mouth! Fortunately, all the sailors on the deck avoided in time. Jacques' cry for help came from the pile of canvases pulled together by Vice Fan. He escaped the cannonball, but was photographed by the vice sail like a fly, it was really unlucky! Lu Yuan felt a little relieved that in the Caribbean, as long as it is not fatal enough to cause trauma and disability, you are a good man to come to a bottle of rum!

Only the sails were destroyed, and the speed of the "Siren" ship plummeted!

Lu Yuan's eyebrows were locked, and he was overcast? The mortar can be so accurate, your sister must have a computer! Let you hang up! Lu Yuan thought or didn't want to, and shouted at the Brig Brigan who was about to turn around fifty meters away, "Fireball !!!"

Doug the Parrot flying past him screamed, dropped the deck from the air with shock, shaking like a drunk. "Blinking, twinkling, twinkling stars ... Mom, I'm so scared ~!"

In the sound of the children's song of the parrot's arrogant walk, a big dark fireball burst out of Lu Yuan's palm and whistled towards the other party's ship! Although the other party's ship was evading urgently, it's a pity ... "Lao Tzu's fireball can turn!" As the landing shouted wildly, the fireball struck a slight arc and hit the main sail of the Brig On the moment, it burst into a huge fireball with a diameter of 30 feet. Countless fires inside, ignite several sails together!

The speed of the other party had to be lowered.

At this time, the ship has no need for operation! The boat rushed straight towards the other party's hull, Lu Yuan put away the Yunlong spear, pulled out the "Tanatos" bayonet sword and "narwhal" scimitar to stand on the bow, and rushed over when he was about to approach! Massacre!

This battle really hit him in a big belly! His gaze looked like an eagle on the opponent's deck. If the opponent had the action of carrying gunpowder, he would definitely hit a fireball! It was only at this time that the sail of the other party was violently burning, and the flame fell like rain to the deck. Everyone was carrying the gunpowder bag to the bottom warehouse, afraid of causing an explosion, and it seemed that they could not care about the cannon.

When approaching to within a dozen meters.

Lu Yuan struck violently with his machete and bayonet, and the sound of Qing Rin spread far away on the sea! Lu Yuan pointed the front of the scimitar and shouted, "Edward! Come to fight!" After he rushed a few steps, he kicked the deck hard with his feet and just grabbed the rope and jumped over!

When he landed heavily on the deck of the opponent's ship, he did not find the captain of the opponent, even the crew of the opponent was far away from him! He glanced, the rudder was empty, and there was only a black man on the deck, directing the fire.

Lu Yuan looked around, an anxious feeling spread, and the whole thing kept coming out of control. Just when he couldn't help but take the opponent's crew to kill, he suddenly felt his scalp numb!

Lu Yuan didn't want to think about it. The sword crossed up to block, and only heard the loud sound of "Keng !!", which held up the double-sleeved sword crossed by the opponent when he jumped from the mast! The man flew from the mast with great force. Lu Yuan's arms shook and took a step back.

But the man also did not expect Lu Yuan to be able to parry! A man in a gray waistcoat and a hood wobbled backwards with a rebound of strength, and after falling over a heel in the air, he fell beyond five steps.

"I am Edward!" He said.

Looking at his tight-fitting attire, and at least the strength of Silver Peak, Lu Yuan frowned, "The Assassin Brotherhood?"

"No!" The man on the opposite side responded stiffly, "Kaka", the sleeve sword retracted into his sleeve, and then pulled out two British bayonet swords from his waist, and placed a shelf of naval swordsmanship. Seeing that he still had four short muskets in his body, Lu Yuan was almost armed to his teeth!

"Not just!" Lu Yuanmeng rushed up. He shivered involuntarily and lifted his true energy, and the heavy "narwhal" scimitar lifted up with the weird wind!

Edward stretched out his left-handed sword to tilt to block.

It's a pity that he didn't expect much power on that knife! Edward only felt that his left hand was hit by an elephant, making a creaking bone crack, the tiger's mouth burst, and the entire left arm lost consciousness! The bayonet sword was even "keng" and was spun and flew out. The sword was bent like a square ruler!

"Send you to see God!" Lu Yuan's left-handed sword was raised like a snake, and he punctured Edward's chest directly, and he was about to puncture him!

But at this time, another figure jumped from the mast, inserted between the two people, and stood in front of Edward. He also used two sleeved swords, two swords crossed into a cross shape, trying to hold Lu Yuan's bayonet sword. But is Lu Yuan's sword infused with true energy really easy to block? When the three blades touched slightly, the opponent rolled backwards like an electric shock! Lu Yuan's "Tanatos" was also biased and swept from Edward's side, directly penetrating the thick main mast on the side of the bowl!

With a stab, Lu Yuan pulled out his sword indifferently, and hung the sword and the sword across from each other.

"It's you ?! The Brotherhood of Assassins always troubles me, what exactly does that mean ?!" Lu Yuan stared at the man who pushed Edward back. Although the guy is also dressed as an Assassin Brotherhood, wearing a hood to cover his face, but Lu Yuan happened to know him! That man was exactly the same person Lu Yuan met when he first entered the Caribbean, assassin master rayser of the Assassin Brotherhood!

"Do you know me? Who are you ?!" Rayser said vigilantly.

Lu Yuan realized that his appearance had changed. He shook his head no longer to explain, and put his eyes back on the captain Edward. "I have to kill this guy! Does he represent himself or the Brotherhood of Assassins ?!"

"He was the subject of our investigation ..." Rayser crossed his sleeves again, blocking Edward's body. "And, don't you worry about the boat over there? It seems to be coming to you."

When Lu Yuan looked up in the direction he indicated, he couldn't help being surprised again! (Although it is said that anger is not as good as color, it seems to be very high. But it is more helpful to relieve stress and lead a healthy life.)

Another Brig brigantine appeared at the end of Lu Yuan's line of sight. The same sail outfit, the same hull, the only difference was that the pirate flag hung by Nima this time was Morgan!

"You are not Morgan's men?" Lu Yuan couldn't help asking.

"No! I have nothing to do with that infamous guy!" The young captain replied that he was covering the wound on his left hand, his eyes kept staring at the far end.

"Isn't this ship" Sea Wolf "?"

"This is the Jackdaw!"

"Then I call Edward, you promise a p!" Lu Yuan is crazy!

The young man stayed silent for a while ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ only responded angrily, "My name, Edward Duncan!"

Lu Yuan's mouth opened like "ah", the captain sent by Morgan was Edward Lowe, and Nima always felt that she was pitted again ...

"Then why are you looking for me?" Lu Yuan asked depressively, and raised the black flag as soon as he met. You said you were beaten by me, would I believe it?

"Leave Nassau!" The young man stood up straight and stared far away at the eyes of the landing. "There are only a bunch of people who pursue freedom! We are not any country, let alone Morgan's stooges!"

"Xie Te!" Lu Yuan scolded, without even explaining anything, cut off a rope directly, grabbed and jumped back to his boat. "Leave now! Or even fight with you!"

He threatened, and left. At this time, Lu Yuan had already remembered that the task item "Nabori's Wanted Order" in his hand, was he just looking for the "Jackdaw" to exchange for the ship upgrade? ! Your sister actually did a job with the mission!

Far away, Edwards can still hear Lu Yuan shouting, "Repair the sails, clean the deck! Let go of this weak chicken! We still have a tough battle to fight!" Rs
