Originally, the pirates rushed very slowly from the bottom up, but now they were hit by the thunder cannons. Suddenly, the pirates in front screamed and fell down, rolling down the hillside backwards.
"There are firearms! They have firearms!" The pirates were afraid of death. Seeing that the situation was not good, they immediately found an excuse to retreat.
The captain was so angry that he cursed loudly and kept shouting, "Come up, rush up! As long as you rush up, they will be dead!" .??.
But no matter how loudly the captain shouted, the pirates tried their best to retreat and did not move forward at all.
The pirates can fight with the wind, but it would be really difficult for them to charge with ferocious firearms. After all, they are not a well-trained army at all.
It was known for a long time that the other party had firearms. When they were at sea, the other party wanted to use firearms to scare them away.
It was precisely because he saw that the other party had firearms that the captain was keenly aware of the unusualness of this ship. He insisted on catching these people regardless of the objections of the first mate.
"Come on! Anyone who rushes up to those two hills will be rewarded with ten gold coins each!" With no other option, the captain had no choice but to encourage the pirates with a heavy reward, and the price of ten gold coins for the first one to rush up was suddenly increased.
Just improve it so that everyone has it.
"The first one to rush forward will be awarded a title!"
Upon hearing the captain's promise, all the pirates immediately stopped retreating, and their eyes instantly turned red. All the pirates turned around and rushed towards the hillside with roars again.
Get a title!
This is what countless people dream of! As long as they have an official title, even the lowest title, they can be allocated a piece of land, become a lord, and become a high-ranking noble from now on!
Not only did the pirates become the masters, but also his descendants became the masters.
Such a temptation naturally made the pirates rush up the hillside as if they were crazy.
The most brutal fighting occurred immediately.
"kill!!!"
Yu Qian kept yelling, "Calm down!"
"Don't be afraid!"
"Load and fire step by step!"
"Hold on! We can win!"
If the naval officers and soldiers were to defend such terrain, it would be a piece of cake. They have never even fought such a rich battle.
It's a pity that Yu Qian's subordinates are Mr. Academy who have never been on the battlefield and have never seen bloody fighting with their own eyes.
It was okay when the first wave of pirates were repelled. The pirates who were killed were a little far away. They couldn't see the bloody, dead, or other tragic scenes here.
But as the pirates approached
The pirates were not fools either. They used bushes and rocks to block each other's sight. When they got close, they started shooting arrows towards the hillside.
"ah"
Someone next to Yu Qian was hit by an arrow in the calf and screamed immediately.
Seeing that he was still trying to struggle and escape, Yu Qian immediately pulled him down and pushed him to the ground, shouting loudly in his ears, "Get down, stand up and you will be the opponent's target, and you will die faster!"
Hearing what Yu Qian said, the other party really didn't dare to struggle to stand up. However, the other party looked at Yu Qian with a face full of pain, and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Yu, Senior Brother Yu, I, I hurt, I hurt!"
Yu Qian glanced at his calf and saw that the arrow did not pierce deeply, and there was not much blood flowing out.
He immediately said to him, "It's just a little skin injury, just grit your teeth and bear it."
Yu Qian took out the short knife directly
, holding the arrow shaft with one hand, and cut off the arrow shaft with a sharp swing, leaving only a two-inch long section still inserted in the calf.
"Are you feeling better?"
The man looked at Yu Qian and nodded slightly. Although there were large beads of sweat on his forehead, he still nodded and said, "Much better."
In fact, the reason why he felt so much pain just now was because the arrow shaft was too long, and the swinging from side to side was like vigorously stirring his flesh, which made him completely unbearable.
Now after being broken by Yu Qian, the short arrow shaft no longer shook, and he was not as uncomfortable as before.
Yu Qian nodded sharply and said loudly, "Pick up the thunderbolt and continue killing pirates!"
"Yes." The man only felt waves of pain coming from his calf, and his eyes turned red when he looked at the pirate, and he said viciously.
Yu Qian quickly dealt with the matter and immediately shouted, "Don't be afraid, they are using soft bows that cannot be shot! Shoot them all down!"
Everyone cheered up and kept firing at the pirates, and they really drove the pirates away again!
This time, when the captain saw the retreating pirates, he did not immediately order them to charge again. He also saw that the opponent's defense was very tight, and the power of the firearms was extremely high, far beyond what he knew about the power of the firearms.
This made him frown immediately, and a memory came to his mind.
"Dad, this gun is so powerful. With such a powerful firearm, we must be invincible, right?"
But he saw his father's brows furrowed into the character "Chuan", as if he was very distressed.
His father casually dropped the gun in his hand, shook his head and sighed, "What kind of power is this? It's only 30% of the power of the Daming Firearms."
"Daming? Is this the Daming you mentioned before?" he asked curiously.
Since he was a child, he has heard two words from his father from time to time
The name is "Da Ming", but every time he wanted to ask about this Da Ming, his father would gently apply it to him. Sometimes when he got angry, he would even beat him.
It seems that this Ming Dynasty is a taboo for his father. He doesn't want to mention it, but he has to mention it.
From that time on, he was very curious about the Ming Dynasty. When he grew up, he learned that the Ming Dynasty was a powerful empire in the west.
But no one can tell how powerful the Ming Dynasty is. Because when everyone mentions the Ming Dynasty, they always keep it secret and avoid it.
"With such powerful firearms, are these people from the Ming Dynasty?"
On Yu Qian's side, although he repelled the pirates twice in succession and only one person was injured, the situation did not make him optimistic.
Because these people were teachers in the academy before and had no training at all. Now seeing the dead people in front of them, smelling the strong smell of blood in the air, and the huge pressure of fighting the pirates just now, these people suddenly endured
They couldn't hold it anymore and started vomiting one after another.
"vomit"
And when they start to vomit, it seems like they can't stop it. Some people can only vomit water, but they still keep vomiting.
Yu Qian said secretly that it was not good and quickly stepped forward and shouted loudly
"Hold it!"
But the other party only looked at Yu Qian helplessly, then turned around and vomited.
"Hold it! You must hold it back! If you can't hold it back, then we will die!"
"Whether the pirates rush up and kill us bit by bit with cramps and peeling off our skin, or kill the pirates and have a chance of survival, you choose for yourself!"
die!
The terror of death suddenly enveloped everyone's hearts, but at the same time it also stopped their desire to vomit!
The instinct to survive defeated the inner fear in the shortest possible time!
