Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ships of the Li family fleet under the command of a bad little girl were lined up in a ''' shape, and they were still bombarding fiercely with the enemies who were trying to rush towards them from three directions.
At this time, even some bad little girl, Admiral, had already discovered it:
Although the three waterways were covered with reefs, for the Espirosha Chamber of Commerce ships, which had relatively small ships and were lighter drafts, their medium-sized ships could disperse and rush towards the Li family fleet without any worries, and there was no need to worry about hitting the reef or stranding.
If the Li family fleet wants to go out, it can only calmly slow down the speed and avoid the reefs from the winding waterway. That kind of thing is obviously an impossible task to complete when the two sides are fighting.
Therefore, placing the fleet's ships into a "冂" shape and using them as a fixed artillery to bombard the enemy, and preventing the enemy from getting closer has become one of the few feasible options for the Li family fleet.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The artillery battle continued, and many Espirona Chamber of Commerce ships were shot. They had to stay behind because of fire, mast breaks or other reasons. At the same time, the rolling smoke and the rumbling artillery bombardment complemented each other, declaring the intensity of the battle situation in this sea area.
However, under unified command, more Espirona Chamber of Commerce ships accelerated and gritted their teeth to fight the whistling shells in the sky, and continued to charge towards the Li family fleet in a serpentine manner on the wide sea area.
Of course, it is only a unilateral shelling of the Li family fleet for the time being, because the shortest distance of the large fleets on both sides is about 800 yards, which is obviously beyond the effective shooting distance of the Espinosha Chamber of Commerce naval guns, even those heavy cannons are no exception, let alone the small cannons on their bows that have greater scaring effects than actual effects.
Therefore, they had to shorten the distance between the two sides by half or even more before turning and using the main gun position on the side of the ship to launch artillery bombardment against the Li family fleet that was motionless and had even been anchored.
At this time, in front of the Li family fleet, because there were only 120 artillery on the side of the flagship "Xiang Feihu" against the enemy, and the number of enemy ships exceeded twenty, so the firepower was slightly weak, which made a medium-sized armed clutch of the Espinosha Chamber of Commerce exploit the loophole and took the opportunity to rush to the front. At this time, they had already entered a dangerous distance of 500 yards.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Therefore, it was naturally under the extra special care of a row of artillery soldiers on the flagship of the Li family fleet, "Xiang Feihu".
In an instant, dozens of shells landed on the surroundings of its ship, and smashed a series of high splashing water columns.
But unfortunately, it may be God's protection, or it may be due to luck, or the admiral statue standing on the bow of the other party's ship, whose surname is unknown, played a role?
Anyway, it is now very lucky and is rushing towards the "Xiang Feihu" with extraordinary momentum.
"I'm so stupid!"
?(?`^'?)?
"Get out of the way, let others do this shelling!!"
ヽ(ヽ`д′)┌┛★)`з゜)
Annie kicked away a clumsy artilleryman who was staring at the fastest enemy ship in a hurry, then went forward and acted on it himself, pulled the bulky cannon and aimed twice, then resolutely grabbed the iron sign and lit the gunpowder at the medicine door.
boom!!
Amid the numerous chaotic shellings, the cannon in front of Anne roared.
Immediately afterwards, a round and whistled shell in the flames and black smoke, roared towards the coquettish medium-sized clutch, and died. Just as the opponent turned, it hit the bottom of the largest mast of the opponent.
No matter how tough the mast is, it is made of wood, but most of the solid shells of this era are cast by iron or lead. In addition, the acceleration of the shells gives the shells huge kinetic energy, so the main mast of the warship that rushed to the front was splashing in the wood as if it were hot. The screams of the personnel and the chaos of the mast falling fell across the sea, and the speed gradually slowed down.
"Hey!!"
?(ψ｀▽′)o
"You see, just fight like this, how simple is it?!"
?(?￣? ￣)??
After easily making a meritorious service and easily killed the fastest and most powerful mast of the enemy's fastest and most powerful clutch, Anne clapped her hands proudly, throwing the red iron mark in her hand to the still a little dumb and stupid, looking at her gunner with incredible eyes.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Soon, when the clutch lost its speed and was standing in place and the deck was in chaos, the artillery soldiers on the next deck of the "Xiang Feihu" opened fire.
In the instant Xia Yi, nearly thirty shells bombed the enemy ship that had become a fixed target. Soon, at least a dozen shells hit it. Then, the unlucky ship was shrouded in the explosion of flames and thick smoke, and the sailors on the ship began to scream and jump into the sea to escape.
"Very good!"
"It hit, it's on fire!"
"Ha ha!"
"They are starting to abandon the ship!!"
The second admiral Song Yifeng, who was following Annie, cheered on the spot, cheering for the wonderful performance of Annie and the row of artillery soldiers on the deck just below.
"Everyone cheer up!"
o(*'　〼')o
"There are many ships of those bad guys. If anyone dares to cheat, they will kick his ass!"
?(ψ｀╭╮′)o
Annie didn't care about the reaction of the young follower Song Yifeng behind her, but just looked at the more than twenty enemy ships in front of her, while encouraging and threatening the artillerymen.
And when Anne directed the artillery on the side deck of the ship, and when Song Yifeng would only follow behind and shout, the first mate came to the side of the ship that had no chance to launch the artillery on the other side with a worried look, and looked at the pirates who were getting closer and closer behind the fleet with a telescope.
At this time, the fleet of pirate Azhisha had rushed to a very close distance.
Because, the eight cannons at the tail of the two warships of the Li family fleet were not able to form a terrifying firepower net to block the enemy like the one with side and front.
However, the first mate also saw that after the shelling along the way, Azhisha's small and medium-sized pirate ships also suffered losses. One of the ships was even plowed out by shells on the deck. The limbs and arms on the top were broken, and the intestines and brains were spread all over the floor. It looked so miserable and dazzling!
But that was useless. Although Azhisha's fleet was small and small, it had already rushed to three hundred yards behind the Li family fleet.
Three hundred yards, that is already a very close distance and suitable for the enemy to shell the enemy.
If it were ships of the Espirosha Chamber of Commerce, they must have begun to turn and use the gun positions on the side to launch violent shelling on their huge target Li family fleet. However, at this moment, the Pirates Azhisha did not have the ship, but continued to move forward.
Because the pirates' ships are fast, small and medium-sized sails and ships, and they are rushing towards the Li family fleet. Most of the bows are only one or two small shotguns on the bow, and that is just prepared for the final suppression of the impact before the jump gang. At this distance, the shelling will definitely not work. In addition, the Li family fleet's ships are large ships, and the boat gang is very high. Even if they are bombarded now, those shotguns such as stone iron pieces will be blocked by the thick wooden boards of the hull. So when the first mate saw that the pirates were not in a hurry to shell.
Boom! Boom!
When the pirates were not planning to engage in artillery battles and continued to rush forward at full speed, once again, the stern guns on the two ships behind the Li family fleet were in a row with eight shells, and they directly hit the enemy at close range.
However, the pirates still withstood the volley.
Except for the waterline at the bow of an unlucky fast ship, a large gap was smashed by shells on the spot, and the sea water poured in frantically, and the speed slowed down suddenly, the other ships were at most just the sails were penetrated or the deck was penetrated, causing a few unlucky guys to lose.
Even the enemy ship with a large gap on the bow of the ship was torn open immediately. Although it may be really helpless, because it was made of wood, the pirates did not load too much cargo in order to increase the speed of the ship, and there were not even many artillery and shells, so it was still floating there now.
"Good opportunity!"
"quick!"
"Everyone, hurry up now!"
"Run quickly!!"
"They are loading shells and rushing over in one go. They have no chance to fire again."
"Run!!"
"Kill them all!!!"
"Snatch their ships! Snatch their cannons!!"
"besides!"
"Snatched the little beauty admiral from their fleet!!"
"Hahaha!!"
The pirates clamored and burst into laughter.
They are not fools, they have long figured out the specific number of cannons on the stern of the Li family fleet.
So, after a volley of the two ships at the stern of the Li family fleet just now, they were lying on the deck to avoid shelling, and stood up one by one, then began to waving the short muskets and scimitars in their hands frantically, and took out the lock hooks and rope nets, ready to climb up at any time and kill people and seize the ship.
Some pirates even crawled onto the mast and grabbed the cables, as if they were preparing to jump to the decks of the two ships of the Li family fleet by swinging?
At this distance, when the artillery soldiers of the Li family fleet reload the shells, they would probably have rushed to within fifty yards. In that case, the shooting angle of the opponent's stern guns would definitely not be enough, and they would no longer have to worry about those terrible artillery.
“…”
At this time, at the stern of the Li family fleet, a commander was looking at the three pirate clutches that had rushed into three hundred yards, and saw the despicable pirates screaming on the deck.
"Damn it!"
"Mustrator is ready!"
Seeing the despicable pirates who seemed to have already eaten them, the commander first spitted thick phlegm in the direction of the sea, and then suddenly waved his hand.
Immediately afterwards, rows of musketeers holding flintlock Miner rifles appeared at the stern, and aimed the muzzle at the enemies who had already rushed within two hundred and fifty yards, and were still climbing on the deck and mast of the pirate ship that was rushing in at this time.
"aim!"
"Open fire!!"
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
Clear gunshots kept ringing at the sterns of the two ships.
As the cannons on the side of the ship continued to roar, constantly bombarding the fleets that the Espinosha Chamber of Commerce were trying to approach, causing losses to the enemy ships and gradually less daring to get closer, the musketeers squeezed into the stern of the ship in rows and opened fire violently at the pirates that were approaching, and then they kept rotating their teams, keeping the gunshots going on and can't stop.
“!!”
"careful!"
"Wow!"
"Hide quickly!!"
"Ahhhh!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
The crisp sounds of firecrackers came one after another, and at the same time, the pirates were crying bitterly.
Under the continuous and dense volley of Miner rifles, the pirates who were still screaming had to rest on the deck and find a place to hide.
But soon they discovered desperately:
Even if you hide behind the edge of the boat, the bullets can penetrate the thick wooden boards along the boat. While making ferocious holes in the wood boards that may be several inches thick, they can also penetrate into their flesh and blood with unabashed power?
It is useless to hide behind a wooden barrel filled with water, because the barrel is quickly broken, and when the water in the barrel flows, they will easily be knocked down by the bullets that come in.
The pirates who climbed onto the mast first and were ready to use a cable to swing and jump to the deck of the Li family fleet were even worse. They had no place to hide, and were directly shot into corpses like broken pockets by the ferry guns, and then they cried and fell directly into the sea or hung on the cable, or fell directly onto the deck and broke their necks and hands.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The volleyball continued, and small holes were made on the deck and mast of the enemy ship. Under the continuous and dense shooting, the pirate ships, which were originally brand new, were soon broken. There were at least hundreds of gun holes on the sails, which could obviously not be able to catch the wind. There were dense fresh rips on the hull, deck and mast, and wood slags splashed all over the floor.
Finally, after the three pirate ships that rushed forward were baptized by the fierce shooting of the Li family fleet, the one that was behind turned first, and used the power of the oars to escape.
The last two pirate ships hit the butts of the two warships at the last side of the Li family fleet in the direction of the "冂" shaped battle formation. The corner of the bow of the ship was directly inserted into the wooden boards of the two large ships of the Li family fleet and was stuck by the metal keel, causing the four ships to be stuck together directly from head to tail.
but……
Although, the ships of the Li family fleet were injured for the first time and were also exploded by the enemy ships, the enemy did not take the opportunity to jump to help.
Because, at this moment, the sailors of the two pirates' ships had been cleared by guns at a distance of dozens of yards. At this time, when they looked down from the edge of the Li family fleet, the sailors only looked at the blood-red and dead pirates. The enemy's layers of corpses were piled up one by one, and the corpses were so numerous that the blood began to gather and drip into the sea along the drainage outlet of the squad's ship.
In short, there was no one standing on the deck of the enemy ship, and even the helmsman at the helm was killed by a volleyball, not to mention that he wanted to fight against the Li family fleet.
It is obvious that the pirates seriously underestimated the melee ability of the Li family fleet. Although the stern of the ship is indeed a weakness and does not have enough artillery, it is wide and high enough to allow thirty or forty musketeers to shoot and form a volleyball formation at the same time. That is simply a nightmare for pirates who are good at jumping gang combat and fighting.
"stop!"
"The musketeers continue to be alert!"
"The remaining pirates must have hid under Class A and stared at the deck for me. They came out and beat each other, and then we would clean up them after we finished cleaning up the Pinault Chamber of Commerce."
"Pooh!"
He salied hard at the deck of the enemy ship, and the commander of the Li Chamber of Commerce looked at the artillery soldiers who were still bombarding the enemy ships in the thick flames and the roar of fire,
Now the pirates at the stern hide in the cabin and dare not come out. The cannons at the stern do not have such a low firing angle, and if they set fire, they are worried that they will cause fire. Therefore, it seems that they can only maintain the status quo for the time being.
"quick!"
"Send someone to the cabin below and saw off the enemy's corners!"
"besides!"
"Organize the spare sailors, go down to control their deck, and push their ship a little further after the impact angle is cut off!"
"Sentencer!"
"Send a flag slogan to the flagship and say we have controlled the pirates!"
