Chapter 245 Sea Cannibals
Chapter 246 Cannibals at Sea
Anyway, the team in Hongguiyuan in Quanzhou is very large, so they just asked them to contract this project and build the school project. Song Chen's requirements are still high. According to the closed position, there are teaching buildings, accommodation buildings, experimental buildings, and libraries. They originally wanted to build a gymnasium. After reading the newspaper, they found that their pockets were really tight. They left a piece of land there and then built them when they had money.
Besides, there is a playground. If you do this, students can be guaranteed for physical exercise.
While Song Chen was planning his school, a military ship in his Coastal Management Department was in trouble.
Because this new sailing boat is comfortable and fast, it can save half a month from Lin'an to Quanzhou. The boat ticket is only 500 yuan per ticket, which saves money and time compared to traveling to the land, and has obvious advantages.
The reputation of the military company in the Song Dynasty gradually fermented and circulated between the two places. It could earn 200 jin of money at one time and six times a month. In this case, the ship could also make a net profit of 1,000 jin after taking advantage of the staff salary and other expenses.
This ship is sailing on this route, and three fast ships suddenly appeared in the distance. This ship has no other performance, and its only feature is its fast.
Sailors immediately discovered that these crew members on the ship had one of the most fundamental professions, namely Marines.
This route has been taken dozens of times, and I have never encountered pirates at all. I didn't expect it to appear now.
A flag was floating above the three clutches, an old octopus, which was the ship of the pirates and old octopus. These pirates left many horror legends on the sea.
The most terrifying thing is that they would select a thin man from the captured people, and together with a few strong victims, send them to a small boat and hand them over to the sea.
Then they were given a lot of fresh water but didn't give them any food, and the boat would float with the waves. I really couldn't imagine that the hungry humans would do anything terrible, and these people would eat the weak.
Regardless of the consequences, the old octopus will go to them. Seeing their cannibalism, these surviving people are the "lucky ones" and they will recruit these people as pirates.
If they all starve to death, they will spit on these people and then curse "cowards". If they are lucky that these people are still alive and have no cannibalism, they will peel the skin of these people.
Zhao Meng was the one who fought side by side with Song Chen on Highland No. 4. He was the captain of the ship and saw this situation.
He immediately asked his soldiers to send the passengers into the cabin, stood on the bow and shouted, "This is the Dasong Navy, the Brave, the Marine Corps, and the first battalion and one team of the Marine Corps. If you get close, you will be bombarded!"
Just kidding, of course, I brought the cannon with me. More than twenty Marines took out the number one and aimed it at that side.
But the people on the ship shouted, "They are commercial ships, don't attack."
Zhao Meng hesitated that there are regulations in the army to attack non-armed ships. If he attacks civilians, he will be severely punished even for misunderstandings.
During this period, there were not many ships coming to "take the route". Some people lure business opportunities from here and send ships to follow them, otherwise their tickets could be sold more expensively, so that they could make more money.
Anyway, Zhao Meng was very dissatisfied, but Song Chen said that as long as these "passing routes" ships are not malicious, they will just let them go. In Song Chen's eyes, passenger transport will not be the main business of the Song Dynasty's military wife company, and they will take the logistics path in the future.
Zhao Meng was a little hesitant. When he saw three big ships coming from behind, he ordered the firing without hesitation.
The first shot was empty, and the second shot was hit.
The soldiers present were a little nervous. Although they had all experienced battle formations, the fear brought by the cannibals at sea cannot be ignored.
The three clutchs seemed to be fearless of life and death. Two ships were hit, and the last one drove over fearlessly.
After entering the shooting range of No. 1, Zhao Meng ordered No. 1 to shoot, and the bullets shot out in anger and hit it. Unfortunately, there seemed to be no one on the ship.
Fortunately, he just ordered ten people to shoot, and ten guns were in the state of firing at any time.
Finally, the people in the cabin discovered what was going on. It turned out that they had encountered pirates, and everyone was dissatisfied at first.
Anyway, the general idea is that this is not the ship of the Navy of the Song Dynasty. I said before buying the ticket that it was absolutely safe. What's wrong now? You, a pirate, are too cowardly, and even pirates dare to rob you.
When they heard the arrow hitting the ship's side, the passengers really began to be scared and said good things, calling on the soldiers to protect their vigor.
These soldiers were trained by Song Chen and showed super high qualities. They silently accepted the accusations of these passengers and expressed that they would protect them.
When they entered the range of the bow and arrow, dozens of heads suddenly appeared on it, one person and one arrow, and the speed was very fast, but they were trained by Song Chen himself. They had practiced this kind of combat situation countless times.
At this time, they hid under the side of the ship. After this wave of attacks, they immediately called over with No. 1. Due to the close distance, six people on the other side were shot and fell down.
Now the problem is that the three big ships over there drove at full speed while the cannons could not exert their power. If they waited for them to come, the end of the battle would be without any suspense. In front of the pirates with absolute advantage in numbers, they could only wait for death.
Could it be that he was also captured by this group of conscientious cannibals, and then endured that kind of torture and cannibalism with his kind, he would rather die than become a member of them.
Under the suppression of the opponent's bow and arrow, the gunner cannot be fired at all. This cannot be blamed on the gunner, because once it reaches the gun, the opponent's archer will definitely give priority to greetings.
Thinking of the terrifying prospect of being a cannibal, Zhao Meng rushed towards the cannon regardless of everything, which was the only thing that could turn the situation around.
Many arrows passed by, and there were clusters of arrows everywhere on the deck. Fortunately, he loaded the bullets without any danger.
The soldiers under Zhao Meng were also good. Seeing their leader so bravely and desperate, they also stood up and took out No. 1 to cover him.
"Cover the company commander!" the soldiers shouted tacitly.
At this time, when the cannon was facing the opponent's ship, Zhao Meng lit the cannon, and the shells were fired, hitting the enemy ship's hull. The small boat was instantly cut into a big gap.
