Chapter 7

The night was full of surprises, but the weather was very bad.

Batlila Island in the night was like a sleeping girl, defenseless, and had no idea that someone would come to visit under the cover of night.

Two pirate ships docked at the pier of the town. The pier, which was usually used to dock fishing boats, had two large sailboats parked on it, just like a pair of size 40 feet was stuffed into a pair of twelve-year-old children's shoes.

A skull flag was hung on the highest mast of the first ship, indicating that the visitors were not good neighbors who came late at night, but a group of vicious pirates.

The Big Gun Pirates.

Then, I saw black gun barrels extending from the side decks on both sides of the pirate ship. Under the adjustment of the gunners on the ship, the gun barrels were facing the town of Batlila. As the gun barrels slowly turned red, a flash of fire passed by.

"Boom"

The huge special shells cut through the air with a whistling sound, and one by one, the shells flew towards Batlila Island and landed in the sleeping town.

Immediately afterwards, the sky-high flames lit up, and the huge explosion woke up some residents.

Here, Sam and Wapo standing on the pirate ship gave an order, "Little guys, charge."

"Oh."

The pirates on the deck jumped off the ship and rushed into the sleeping town.

The roar of the artillery woke up the sleeping Batlila Island, and the places where the shells fell were all ablaze with fire. The residents of the town who finally realized what happened were completely panicked in an instant.

There is a pirate invasion! ! ! !

The fishermen at the port were the first to react, picking up their weapons and rushing out of the house.

"The pirates are coming." As the people who woke up ran to tell each other, more and more people woke up from their sleep.

In an instant, the tranquility of the island was broken, and everyone knew what consequences the pirates' attack would bring to the island.

The fishermen closest to the dock tried to block the pirates at the port and prevent them from rushing into the town as soon as possible, trying to buy some time for the people in the town to escape.

Lao Qiaoxi's shouting rang out in the town, "Men, all grab weapons and come to the dock, old people, women and children, hurry to the back mountain."

The fierce gunfire and shouting also woke up Da Luo, who quickly turned over and got up and hurried to Lu Jiu's room to wake up her sister.

"What's wrong, what happened?" Lu Jiu had just been woken up, and her mind was still a little confused, and she asked Da Luo.

"Sister, there are pirates coming." Da Luo said to Lu Jiu, and then he pulled Lu Jiu out of the house.

This is not an earthquake. It is useless to hide in the house. If a bomb falls, the house will only become a burial place for the two of us. We have to go to a safe place quickly.

"Ah! What should I do?" Lu Jiu panicked when she heard that pirates were coming. The pirates of this era are all extremely vicious and evil. In the eyes of the people, they are more terrible than natural disasters.

"Sister, you should go to the back mountain to hide first. I will go there later." Da Luo thought for a while and said to Lu Jiu.

Hearing that Da Luo would not evacuate with her, Lu Jiu was a little anxious and pulled Da Luo with both hands, "Daro, don't go, go to the back mountain with me."

"Sister, I have to help Uncle Qiao Xi. They are blocking the pirates at the dock. I have to go and see. Uncle Qiao Xi usually helps us a lot." Da Luo looked at Lu Jiu and said.

Lu Jiu wanted to say something, but seeing that Da Luo was so determined, he had to give up and said worriedly, "Then you should be careful. If the situation is not right, run quickly. Don't be stubborn."

"Don't worry, I will be fine."

After much persuasion, Lu Jiu was finally persuaded to leave. Da Luo returned to the room and took out the revolver and bullets from the box.

Tightening his coat, Da Luo quickly rushed to the port.

If everyone fled to the back mountain, they would have to surrender to the pirates' encirclement and suppression at that time, so only by repelling the pirates with Lao Qiaoxi could they survive.

"We must stop the pirates at the dock to buy time for everyone to retreat." Da Luo thought.

Even if the pirates hit Batlila Island, Da Luo remained calm, as if he was born for such a big scene.

Da Luo shuttled through the narrow streets, shells fell from time to time and brought sparks, and the fire occasionally spread to the houses on both sides.

The firelight was accompanied by the noisy voices of people, as lively as an oil pan. The town seemed like a goat about to fall into the oil pan, and could only be slaughtered.

"It's on fire, run!"

"It's over, it's over, my money, my money!!"

"

Don’t worry about the money, what’s more important, life or money!”

“Money is my life!”

“Everyone run to the back mountain. "

……

Noisy voices came from all directions. In the midst of the crisis, the town was performing a show of human nature, with greed, cowardice, selfishness, but more warmth and courage, and so on.

Daro had no time to think about human nature here. He finally rushed to the dock after running all the way.

To the east of the dock, fishermen and pirates were fighting. Lao Qiaoxi and the fishermen led the pirates to the shantytown where the fishermen lived, and finally held the pirates.

There were wooden simple houses that the fishermen built for their convenience on weekdays, and they were connected together to form a shantytown.

Because the terrain there was complicated, the pirates were dispersed after entering the shantytown. For fear of accidentally injuring their own people, the artillery of the Giant Cannon Pirates did not dare to land directly in this area.

At this time, a raging fire was burning in the middle of the shantytown, and the shouts of fishermen and pirates fighting and killing came one after another.

"Lao Qiaoxi, what's the situation now? "Daro found Lao Qiaoxi in the crowd. At this time, Lao Qiaoxi was PKing with a pirate in the Imperial City with a harpoon.

Seeing Daro coming, Lao Qiaoxi grabbed the pirate opposite him and said in surprise: "Daro, why are you here? It's good that you are here. The situation is very bad now. Everyone is almost unable to hold on."

While speaking, Lao Qiaoxi kicked over another pirate who rushed over.

Suddenly, a scream came from the crowd, "A shell is flying over. "

Daro subconsciously turned his head towards the direction of the pirate ship at the dock, and saw a cannonball drawing a beautiful parabola in the sky and flying towards him.

This cannonball seemed to have eyes and flew towards this side. This is where the fishermen are most concentrated. If this cannonball falls, the casualties will definitely be very heavy.

[Dead Eye]

Daro reacted immediately, took out a gun from his arms, aimed at the flying cannonball and pulled the trigger continuously.

"Bang, bang, bang. ”

After firing several shots in a row, the shell finally exploded in the air.

“…”

The commotion around them disappeared at this moment, and the people around them were so shocked by the scene that they were speechless.

At this time, a bad news came. The fishermen in the shantytowns suffered heavy losses and everyone was about to collapse.

Pirates are pirates after all. They make a living on the edge of a knife. Killing, arson, and looting are commonplace. Their combat effectiveness far exceeds that of ordinary fishermen.

Lao Qiaoxi was so anxious that he stamped his feet, but he had no idea for a while.

“Daro, everyone is about to collapse. Do you have any solution? "I don't know if it's because he saw Da Luo stop the cannonball just now, Lao Qiaoxi asked Da Luo inexplicably.

The port is too spacious, and the pirate ship is parked at the dock. It is difficult for fishermen to fight against the endless pirates. They have no advantage in fighting here.

Only by leading the pirates to the town and using the cover of the streets and the advantage of fishermen's familiarity with the terrain can we stop this group of pirates.

Thinking of this, Da Luo said to Lao Qiaoxi: "The people in the town should have run to the back mountain. We have to retreat to the town. Their firepower here is too strong. We can only lead them to the town to have a chance. "

There is no other way. Lao Qiaoxi doesn't want to lose people here, so he raised his voice and shouted to the surroundings: "Prepare to retreat, everyone retreat to the town. "

After hearing the order, the fishermen gradually got out of the fight with the pirates and retreated to the town behind.

Daro and Lao Qiaoxi rushed to the front to cover some fishermen who could not get away, and the group finally hid in the town.
