Chapter 683: Who is the prey (1)

The pirate sloop is almost similar to the Southeast Province cruise ship. The gun deck has nine gun ports on the port and port sides. Each side has eight 12-pounder guns and one 18-pounder gun (compared to the Southeast Province cruise ship, which has six 12-pounders and six guns. Doors, three 18-pounder guns), and ten 6-pounder guns on the open deck.

The firepower is slightly weaker than that of cruise ships, after all, they can't be too heavy, assuming that they run fast.

However, the pirate ship did not have a fixed bow gun. In fact, it opened a hole in the bow of the ship, pushing two 18-pounder guns over and firing it.

The same is true for the Southeast Mansion cruise ship, with guns open at the front and rear, and there is no fixed artillery, so just push it when needed.

Because it is a warship of our own design, the front and rear of the gun deck can be easily dismantled from the planks, and the cannon can be pushed to the gun door for battle.

The brig pirate ship has 30 artillery, 22 12-pounder and 8 6-pounder.

As for the Yasha 12 supply ship in the Southeast Mansion, the firepower is not strong, there are only 12 6-pounder guns, and its gun deck is filled with materials.

Therefore, this battle is very risky, but fleeing is not the true nature of the Southeast Army. Official Hong Xi is waiting for the wind to change.

Life is not what you want to have. It always has the wind. If it is used for travel, it is a cool thing, but it is really uncomfortable for the Southeast Army to use it to fight.

Therefore, Hao Sizhong was chased hard enough, and the supply ship he commanded was unable to fight back, so he constantly ordered the ship to move left and right to evade.

The jets of water continued to explode to the left and right and behind him, and the water splashed everywhere, so that he had to wear a waterproof jacket.

When an officer is indeed risky, he stands behind the stern tower, watching the enemy's bow and constantly issuing orders, while his navigator is responsible for looking ahead.

As for the pirate ships with the Bull Head Flag and the Sea Eagle Flag on the left and the right, they chased Kaohsiung 72 (flagship) and Kaohsiung No. 78 (commander Yan Zhang) respectively. At first, they brazenly bombarded with bow artillery. Both sides, but what they didn't expect was a "boom". A shot from the stern of the 72nd ship, hit it straight, and smashed the statue of the Virgin of the bull's head flagship fore mast!

The slanted bow sails fell, not to mention that the pirates of the Bull Head flagship were stunned. Even Chief Dick was taken aback and stared closely at the Chinese ship No. 72.

The psychological shadow of the pirates has greatly increased!

Despite the fact that the pirates are murderous and cruel, they believe in the gods and pray for the blessings of the gods, and they lick the blood, the most telling sign, now the Chinese are given a shot to kill their Virgin, making them feel uncomfortable for a while.

They woke up, the opponent was an army after all!

When dealing with the army, pirates are inherently fearful. People are soldiers and they are thieves.

Some pirates trembled in their hearts, but they were already overwhelmed.

The speed of the Niutou flagship slowed down slightly, and then accelerated again, and then the bow guns continued to fire.

The pirate ship under the Sea Eagle flag was chasing and attacking the Kaohsiung No. 78, and the two sides had artillery exchanges, and the losses were not large.

Bombardment with solid bullets is really not such a refreshing thing. First of all, it is not easy to hit the opponent, even if it hits the opponent, it will not be very hurt.

But when the Southeast Ship uses chain bullets, the pirates are not so calm.

The chain bomb flew, interrupted the main midmast stay (not the main sail) of the Bull Head Banner, and knocked off a large mast cap. The large piece of wood collided from above and fell to the ground. Just at this moment, A pirate stuck his head out of the main hatch, and the wooden block hit him accurately, knocking him unconscious.

Fire several chain bullets in a row,

Amid the sharp horns, the three sloops of pirates were working together, and the wind was blowing on the sails. The spinnakers were spread on both sides of it, like two rabbit ears.

They yelled loudly, using their paddles together, leveling with the three Southeast ships.

It's now!

"Get ready for the starboard gun!" Hong Xiguan shouted: "Lower the sail! Turn the rudder and turn around."

Following the actions of the soldiers, the Kaohsiung 72nd ship turned back to port to grab the wind. As a result, the pirate ship ran ahead of the 72nd ship.

"Half a point on the port side!" Hong Xiguan stood on the bulwark, staring at the pirate ahead. Under the action of the oar, it turned quickly like a top.

The fire was finally handed over, and with an order, the starboard gun of the 72nd ship fired, and the pirate ship also fired back with the starboard gun.

Immediately after the exchange of fire, the pirate ships were shot in succession, and the shells hit the bulwark of the Bullhead flag pirate ship. The wood chips flew across, and the injured pirate groaned.

Nine shells, eight hits!

Of the nine pirate shells, three shot high and hit the air, and two shots were nearly missed, only four shots were hit.

The artillery went back and forth, and within five minutes, the Southeast Ship launched four rounds of attack!

The hit rate was terribly high, and the pirate ship shook violently. They only fought back three times, and the hit rate was not high.

Since the Chinese attack was not expected to be so sharp, the people on the pirate ship panicked. One of the gunners who had a gun in the hectic did not clean the barrel and simply stuffed new gunpowder in. The gunpowder exploded and sprayed on his face. He screamed heartbreakingly, making the rest of the pirates even more chaotic. In a ball, they dragged him aside, wiped the cannon again, filled it with gunpowder, and shot the cannonball out.

However, all the mistakes were made and the whole movement was a step slower, and all the starboard guns moved slowly.

The pirate ship of Bull Head Banner had to turn its bow and fire on the port side in order to catch a breath of starboard side.

"Reel the sail, reel!" Hong Xiguan shouted wildly. The opponent fired chain bullets one after another, interrupting several mast ropes, and also let the right branch sail of the mainmast fall, and the main sail was also punched through several holes. .

"Hit me hard!" Chen Qiu, the deputy captain on the gun deck, walked around to encourage morale. The shells blasted out, and the 18-pound gun roared vigorously, hitting the pirate ship with powerful shells one after another. , The bulwark behind it's port side collapsed and a large piece collapsed, and the gunner inside was killed and wounded.

When I saw several pirates trying to clean up from the gap, they encountered a round of fierce bombardment from the Musketeer of the Southeast Ship. The target was big enough and all the bullets were sent inside. The pirates immediately fell down several people, so the two guns failed and the firepower was even greater weak.

Everything happened during the battle, Hong Xiguan's head suddenly tilted to the side, and he was shot!

A musket bullet that flew from the pirate ship was so coincidental that it avoided the helmet on his head and hit his ear. He quickly reached out and touched it. The ear was numb~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and the blood flow continued. When he left the bulwark, the medical soldiers stepped forward to tear open the tin foil first aid kit, and took out a piece of cotton that had been sterilized by sun exposure to stop him from bleeding.

Southeast Asia has acquired Southeast Asia, where there are particularly many tin mines. People make tin foil, which is very useful to prevent moisture.

Officer Hong Xi was treated by medical soldiers. He didn't look away from the pirate ship. He couldn't help but laugh when he saw that the pirate ship wanted to approach him.

"Open the upper mast auxiliary sail (to receive the wind), continue to be level with it, and let it eat cannon!"

Originally, the pirate ship was more flexible than the Southeast ship, but the damage was not small. When it was approaching, it took two rounds of artillery in three minutes. Finally, the pirate ship posted a help, ready to jump over and kill it, and use those Chinese stumps to break their arms. When the blood came to calm their anger, he looked up, and dozens of black spheres flew up.

Falling on the pirate ship, the bombs rang in unison, turning the open deck of the pirate ship into a place where steel nails and iron bullets wreak havoc, and the unprotected pirates were blown up to one Buddha and two Buddha Nirvana!
