"No, it's an arson ship." The captain's soul was scared away.

He pulled the sailor beside him and said, "Come on, raise the signal flag and inform General Terry of the enemy to attack fire."

But before the panicked sailors were waiting, the signal flag was raised to the mast.

Several ships loaded with tinky oil and black gunpowder rushed over.

On the deck, the Spanish sailors were in a panic and fired desperately.

These ships themselves are armed merchant ships, mainly used to carry large quantities of cargo.

However, after being temporarily shirked the goods under General Scoll's recruitment, he temporarily loaded more than ten artillery pieces and rushed to join the war.

Therefore, in terms of weapon system, the main fleet led by General Scoll is not as well-equipped as the ones.

For example, the rotary cannon was not stable due to the temporary assembly of the cannon stand, and the cannon stands apart in several artillery battles with the Ming army.

The ten-pound cannons piled on the deck were also in silence due to the cumbersome loading and the gunner's improper operation.

On the deck, the Spanish sailors were in a mess.

The sailor tried his best to clean the medicine residue in the cannon chamber.

The Spanish gunner, who was in a hurry, filled a pot of black gunpowder into the gun room, but his hands could not stop shaking, causing most of the gunpowder to sprinkle on the deck.

At this moment, the Clippers were already very close to the armed merchant ship, so close that both sides could use muskets to shoot at each other.

"Red-haired ghost, I'll kill you." A pirate was red in his eyes, and most of his left shoulder was knocked out by the Spanish sailor's melee gun.

At this moment, the bright red blood is still flowing.

He gritted his teeth, and his blood-red and hideous eyes could already see the terrified face of the Spaniard.

"I don't believe that I can't burn your turtle shell."

He smiled cruelly and threw the fire into the pile of gunpowder with his right hand.

The shocking fire rushes up, illuminating the sea level.

Several firemen were blown away by the explosion of air waves and plunged into the cold sea water.

The fire ship instantly hit one side of the merchant ship.

The fierce waves of fire instantly rushed into the cabin.

The cabins of various cargoes that should have been piled up have been filled with black powder barrels at this moment.

"It's over," when Voris saw the blazing fire through the black smoke, he subconsciously closed his eyes.

With a shocking sound, the huge hull swayed violently.

The sailors on the deck were shocked to the sky with powerful shock and fell down heavily like fallen leaves.

The captain spat out a mouthful of blood and struggled to get up. At this moment, he felt that his internal organs seemed to be dislocated.

The Spanish officer next to him was not as lucky as him.

After he flew into the air, he landed on the ground and was hit by a spinning cannon weighing hundreds of pounds.

The entire deck was covered with blood.

The ignited black gunpowder instantly swallowed the entire cabin and headed towards the upper deck.

The sailor jumped desperately toward the cold sea, trying to climb up the nearby merchant ship.

But the next moment, they fell on the water and saw a scene of despair that made them feel from the bottom of their bones.

Not far away, one armed merchant ship after another was engulfed by the fire, and the sailors on the merchant ship jumped off the merchant ship in despair like them.

"General Terry, the other party used fire attack, and the merchant fleet that escorted us was burning." A maritime officer shouted in horror on a third-class warship.

"These pirates actually used arson ships." General Terry looked at the merchant ship burning not far away with a serious expression. The most serious fire had already capsized.

As a senior naval general, he naturally knew that these Orientals were very good at using fire attack in the waters of East Asia.

Due to the backwardness in ship technology and artillery.

These Oriental warships were very weak, compared to the tall Spanish warships.

It's like an adult dealing with a minor child.

But these Orientals were surprisingly cunning. Decades ago, the Dutch suffered a great loss.

In the naval battle of the Ming Dynasty, the Dutch, who had an absolute advantage in warships, was attacked by Zheng Zhilong with flammable fire ships with full of loaded tincture oil and other flammable materials, and eventually returned home in disgrace.

"What else do these Orientals have besides dwarf-like cunning?"

Admiral Terry was very despised about the pirate's arson ship.

He believed that naval battles should be the bombardment of warships against warships' cannons.

What they competed for was the number of artillery piled up on the warships and the bravery of the sailors.

However, these Orientals used such despicable means to make a comeback.

At this moment, five merchant ships were ignited by fireboats on the periphery of the fleet, and the fire was about to capsize.

The number of arson ships far exceeded the Spanish's imagination.

Long before the beginning of this battle, Xiao Wu had already anticipated the possible adverse situation in the naval battle.

As a general of the Ming Dynasty Navy entrenched on Taiwan Island, he naturally knew the Red Russian ships and the sharp guns.

Therefore, long before he arrived at Lavague, he had ordered the pirates who had been subjugated to collect the ignition of tinder oil and prepare to use arson ships to attack the Spanish fleet when the war was unfavorable.

And his tactics worked,

The Spanish fleet was surrounded by armed merchant ships that escorted the third-class warships and acted as firepower platforms, and were suddenly attacked by the arson ships and suffered heavy losses.

"Brothers, work harder." The king's head gritted his teeth, staring at the Spanish warship ahead.

The unique tall hull of the Spanish warship has been clearly visible.

Those brothers who had been through life and death with him, as vanguards, used arson ships to burn down the armed merchant ships outside the third-level battleship.

The Clippers rushed past the burning merchant ship, and under the cover of the sea breeze and the rolling black smoke generated by the burning merchant ship, they rushed towards the Spanish third-level warship.

"Get closer," Wang Shou muttered, his teeth almost shattered.

The flint had already hit the torch. At this moment, more than a dozen pirates on the Clippers were all glaring, and they had already put life and death aside.

The shells flew over and instantly pierced Wang Shou's body.

Half of his body flew with a torch, and then fell into the cold sea level.

The Spanish gunner on a nearby warship apparently discovered him.

The Spanish gunners on these warships are much more well-trained than the sailors on armed merchant ships.

With the spinning cannon on the cannon stand, he suddenly opened fire at the Clippers on the nearby sea.

Clippers were ignited by shells fired from spinning cannons.

Some grape bullets hit the hull and instantly exploded into dozens of pieces and plunged into the chests of nearby pirates.

The rumbling cannons and screams came one after another.

The Spanish gunners on the warship tried their best to fire quickly, and the pirates of the Clippers rushed forward desperately.

They are all desperate people at the sea, and they are already red in their eyes at this moment.

In the end, only three of them successfully broke through the firing realm of the spinning cannon.

The Spanish musketeers on the deck tried their best to fire and block the turbulent oil on the Clippers in advance.

Unfortunately, it's too late to do it.

With a scream.

Pirates with fire jumped off the Clippers,
Chapter completed!
