Chapter 74 Merchant Ship

With the Ming army's seven or eight volleys, more than half of the pirates rushed to the front were killed.

With the burning fire of ships nearby, Zhao Tian brought a group of pirates to touch them again.

As a relatively strong pirate force in Nanyang, the pirate equipment of the Yulong Gang is stronger than that of ordinary pirate forces.

In addition to the big sword and long bow, many muskets were also prepared. However, the performance of these muskets prepared by pirates is far inferior to the various muskets equipped by the Ming army.

Although it also caused some damage to the Ming army, it was soon suppressed by the Ming munitions.

On the pier, smoke filled the sky and fires were rising.

Taking advantage of the Ming army's volleys, the cumbersome gap was filled.

A group of pirates rushed up,

"Let me go," a co-superior roared,

Clusters of flames exploded on the pier in an instant.

The hot metal jet knocked the people in front of them away, and their bodies broke all over the ground. The pirates on the side were so shocked that they hurriedly retreated back.

The Ming army's heavy gun squad arrived in a hurry.

These heavy contrailers who prepared the turtle dove-legged gun came late.

It took a lot of time to reload gunpowder and gun mount support.

Fortunately, it was at the last moment.

"Don't retreat," Zhao Tian was also frightened as he looked at the pirate who had just rushed in front and was beaten into pieces in an instant.

His left cheek was aching slightly, as if he remembered the scene when he boarded the Red Russian warship.

It was also normal, and countless pirates were catching the back of the knife and climbing towards the warship along the cable.

As a result, as soon as he boarded the ship, he was beaten to a disgrace by the musketeers of the Red Army.

With just a few rounds of platoons, most of the brothers who rushed onto the red-haired warship died.

His body was beaten to pieces and was covered in blood.

"Why is the Ming people's firearm as terrifying as the red-haired ghost?" Zhao Tian looked at the Ming army in front of him with some confusion.

When the boss of the army was fighting against Weigan, these brothers cheered and cheered.

After all, it is naturally easier to deal with than the extremely fierce and fierce red-haired ghosts, who are weak and bullied.

The scene in front of him was unbelievable.

Looking at the more than 20 brothers lying on the dock, Zhao Tian felt a little distressed.

These are all good players who have experienced many battles. Every time they charge, they are in the forefront with themselves. Many people even survived the battle with the Red Russians. Who would have thought they would fall here?

Huben Town is a fully firearmed force. As the main force, Zhengyi and Zhengyi and Zhengyi are equipped with various flintlock guns and collide guns.

Liu Yu came late with the heavy musket squad.

Looking at the dock with a fire, frowned,

At this time, the port pier was set on fire by pirates, and several ships docked at the pier were also burning with raging fires.

"Sir, the bandits have been suppressed by our army." A squad leader clasped his fists at Liu Quandao.

Liu Quan nodded,

There were not many pirates rushing into the port, and there were only a few dozen people.

Although it caused great riots to the port in a short period of time, the damage was not very large.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, a shocking water column instantly rose next to the burning dock.

Before everyone could react, waves of muffled thunder sounded in everyone's ears.

The shells fell like raindrops, and the entire dock was in chaos.

"The Third Head, the Great Head is here." A pirate covered in blood shouted.

The brothers beside them had already fallen.

"No, this cannon was not fired from behind us." The third leader touched the knife edge that was hit by the lead bullet of the musket, and said with a stern expression.

The shelling just now made him clearly feel something was wrong.

If the boss led the large and small warships of the Yulong Gang arrived, then when the artillery shells attacked the dock, the shells should have passed by their heads.

But the shell just now clearly flew over.

"Sir, it's a merchant ship of the Weigan Chamber of Commerce. They are firing fire at us." A co-master shouted in horror.

"Wei Gan Chamber of Commerce," Liu Yu gritted his teeth and looked at the sea not far away.

With the burning flames on the pier, I faintly saw several three-masted sailboats on the sea level not far away burning uninterruptedly.

Many shells flew into the sea roaring, raising up one after another of shocking water columns.

Similarly, several shells hit the dock, and instantly they beat the pirates and Ming soldiers to overturn their horses and fly with flesh and blood.

"Nimunanma," Liu Quan's eyes turned red as he looked at the Ming soldiers who fell down in pieces and were covered in blood lying on the dock.

"Tell the people of the Weigan Chamber of Commerce and let them stop the shelling immediately." He immediately grabbed the local Weigan officials who had been absent-minded on the side and shouted.

The Irok official had been scared by the pirates, and was yelled by Liu Quan again, and collapsed to the ground and his legs kept trembling.

"It's too late." Liu Yu looked helplessly at the armed merchant ships looming on the sea.

Merchant ships from the Vigan Chamber of Commerce docked in the deep water area on the east side of the port.

The pier there is larger and the water level is deeper.

The Ming army took over Weigan and did not take over the port, but only took over some military facilities left by the Spanish, such as shore defense forts.

Mainly out of future strategic considerations, the Ming army treated the Weigan Chamber of Commerce very friendly.

The Weigan Chamber of Commerce not only protected its own armed merchant ships, but also owned a dock and a port.

The Ming army also stretched its power to local ports after forming the Sihai Business Company through Liu Yu.

As a result, these pirates from the Yulong Gang were so desperate that they broke into the dock controlled by the Ming army.

Fortunately, there were not many pirates landing. Although the Ming army was in chaos at the beginning, they were soon suppressed by the Ming army's firearms.

As a result, the Weigan Chamber of Commerce forced the attack, and the situation was once again in chaos.

"The Sanding Family seems to be a local Weigan fight with the Ming army." The pirate looked at the merchant ship not far away with excitement, and reported to the Sanding Family with great interest.

Zhao Tian looked at the merchant ship that was fired not far away with contempt.

This kind of dog biting is rare, and even the pirates forgot to attack for a while.

Of course, the shells that whizzed by from time to time also made the pirates understand that it was meaningless to continue shooting.

"Why haven't the master arrived yet?" Zhao Tian looked angry.

He didn't want to know why Mingren bites dogs with Weigan's local powerful dogs.

He only knew that he had brought dozens of brothers to fight the Ming army for so long, and more than 20 warships from the Yulong Gang did not appear from beginning to end.

"Why haven't the boss come yet? Even if he climbs, he should have climbed to it." Zhao Tian looked at the burning dock with anger and confusion.

In fact, the moment the fire broke out on the Weigan Wharf, the Yulong Gang had already noticed the reality of the Ming army.

However, when the Yulong Gang fleet was wandering nearby, they immediately discovered that the armed merchant ships from the Weigan Mall were firing at the dock.
