Even though Qi Ziyin on the opposite boat had a mask on his face, Duke Ye Guo still recognized him at a glance. In anger, he raised his hand and snatched the weapon from a soldier beside him. He looked straight at him with straight eyes.
Only a hundred steps away from him, he saw the eye-catching white man standing behind the steering wheel!
The young man also saw Qi Shouyu on the enemy ship who was about to shoot him and then quickly ducked down to hide, but it was already too late. In desperation, he had no choice but to turn the steering wheel in his hand to the right and turn the wheel to the right.
The fragile side of the ship crashed into the opponent's ship!
The two ships were squeezed together heavily and walked side by side. Under the heavy blow, the thick planks on the sides cracked and scattered countless debris. Several thick crossbars on the mainmast were also entangled with each other, making a rumbling sound.
, and even deflected the sail hanging on it.
Qi Shouyu and his nephew had not seen each other for several years, and they did not expect that the person they originally thought was timid and weak would become so bold. With a collision, the firebolt blunderbuss in Jinghaigong's hand immediately missed its aim, and he also died.
He was unable to stand firmly on the sloping deck. He took several steps back and fell hard to the ground.
At the same time, not far away, among the Ye Kingdom fleet that had been divided and surrounded, and killed to pieces, several ships finally reloaded their artillery ammunition. After a deafening loud noise, they were surrounding them.
In the Qi Ziyin team, several ships were severely damaged in an instant. Even warships with smaller hulls were unable to withstand the continuous bombardment of iron bullets, and their waists were cut into two parts in the middle, and they sank on the spot!
Everyone was shocked by the terrifying power of the artillery, and for a moment they forgot about the fight. Qi Ziyin did not dare to rashly order a pursuit, but watched as the ships under his command turned around and panicked to avoid the oncoming deadly firearms.
.
"Dang, Dang, Dang, Dang", several crisp sounds penetrated the violent storm and floated into Qi Shouyu's ears. It was the copper bell that sounded after the artillery on his ship was loaded! Suddenly, a ferocious look appeared on Duke Ye's face.
Laughing, struggling to get up from the deck, he shouted loudly at Qi Ziyin, who was only one side away:
"The haunting brat! I will send you group of traitors to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish!"
The young man in white understood that Uncle Wang was determined to put himself to death and would never show mercy, so he immediately ordered to speed up. Unexpectedly, the desperate collision just now caused the main ropes of the sails on both sides of the ship to be tightly entangled.
, no matter how you turn the steering wheel, the two warships are still side by side in the turbulent waves, shoulder to shoulder, and difficult to separate.
The cables that tied the sails were also twitched, and the force was so strong that the sergeants on both sides who were responsible for pulling the sails were also pulled off the deck. The men, who were furious, bumped into each other in mid-air, and then pulled out their waists one after another.
The weapons were thrown in the air and they started fighting in the air.
Qi Ziyin knew that he couldn't escape this time. From a distance, he saw Qi Shouyu's lips move, and immediately there was a violent tremor under the deck under his feet. All the iron bullets fired from the opponent's flagship could not hit the ground.
It hit the starboard side of the ship, and the rising smoke obscured the young man's sight, and also obscured Qi Shou's foolishly smiling face opposite.
Just one shot had already caused huge damage to the huge warship. Although there were no clues on the deck, if you lowered your head from the side and looked into several holes pierced by iron bullets, you would be able to see
Seeing a horrific purgatory-like scene everywhere. Even if the soldiers were wearing heavy armor, they could not withstand the powerful impact of the artillery. They were either cut in half at the waist, or knocked to the ground and turned into a blur of flesh and blood.
The screams one after another gradually merged with the roaring sea. Qi Ziyin also clearly felt that the battleship under his feet was beginning to take in water and he was rapidly losing his balance. He looked around, but there was a continuous buzzing in his ears, and there was nothing. Can't hear, can't do anything -
Although he had understood the gap in the armaments between the enemy and us before, he had therefore formulated a strategy of using clippers to attack the east and attack the west. However, now that he was in a fight, the power of the artillery to destroy the mountains and the ground still frightened the young people. And all this, It’s just the tip of the iceberg of the ancestors’ divine power!
"Ziyin, be careful!"
Suddenly hearing a cry of surprise, Leng Jiayun suddenly threw herself back and pushed the young man to the ground. Almost at the same time, the firebolt muskets on the Yeguo ship also sounded one after another, and dozens of people on the deck The soldier fell down instantly after drinking bullets.
A soldier was lying next to the two of them, his wide eyes still filled with the light of survival. However, the black armor on his body had been pierced by lead bullets, leaving only a hole as big as a bowl on his back. .The blood flowed to the deck along the gaps in the armor, dyeing Qi Ziyin's clothes red, and the warm feeling soon became extremely cold.
The soldiers who were constantly sacrificing in front of him suddenly became a heavy stone on the heart of the young man in white, making him feel unable to breathe for a while and his hands and feet were stiff.
"As the coach, now is not the time to be in a daze. What should we do next?!"
Leng Jiayun's voice dimly reached the young man's ears, bringing his thoughts back to reality. He climbed up with some difficulty, but heard a creaking sound above his head——
Originally, the cables on the two ships were intertwined, pulling each other, and no one could escape. However, under the fierce attack of the enemy ship, our main sail had already been beaten into a sieve full of holes. At this time, after being pulled by Qi Shouyu's flagship at an accelerated speed, the entire canvas actually fell completely from the mast into the sea!
Qi Ziyin realized that the warship under his feet was too seriously injured, and it would be difficult to prevent it from sinking rapidly, let alone continue fighting. At present, all the firebolt muskets on the Yeguo ship had been fired, and there were only sporadic muskets in the space between two reloads. Feather arrows and iron arrows are flying from the opposite side, it's a good time to launch a massive attack!
"Hook the opponent's ship with a hook! The firebolt gun cannot be used at close range. Everyone, follow me and kill them!"
The soldiers who heard the young master's order were stunned for a moment, and then they all reacted. They pushed away the bodies of their comrades and threw the hook locks stained with blood towards the opponent's ship. The hook locks were firmly hooked. It caught the inner side of the enemy ship. Under the huge pulling force generated by the two swaying ships, its sharp corners penetrated deeply into the wooden planks, making it difficult to remove easily. The thick cable tied to the hook lock , it is difficult to cut with a sword even in a short period of time.
In this way, the two ships were completely bound together. Qi Ziyin pulled out the pair of Yin teeth, one black and one red, from his waist, jumped onto the enemy's deck first, raised his knife in his hand, and slashed the people next to the deck. Two enemy soldiers were chopped to the ground!
At this time, Ye Guojun had not yet finished loading the firebolt guns in his hands. Facing the soldiers who were also wearing black armor and attacking them like a tide, they couldn't help but panic. They hurriedly dropped the firearms in their hands and turned around. And went to pull out the long knife from his waist.
The deck immediately fell into chaos. The two sides, wearing the same armor and holding the same weapons, started a close-quarters hand-to-hand fight like a mirror image. Occasionally, a few of the defenders successfully loaded the firebolt muskets, but they still failed. Before he could fire the weapon, his head was cut off by a sharp weapon. The only thing that could distinguish them was the white silk on one of their left arms that had already been stained red with blood.
Qi Shouyu stood on the command platform and swung the steering wheel in his hand vigorously, hoping to break free from the shackles of the hook lock. This made the giant ship, which was originally easy to bump and rise in the waves, more and more unstable. The cable on the hook lock collapsed.
It became tighter and tighter, and with a few "clicks", the side of the ship hooked by it began to crack under the strong pull, and then collapsed. Qi Ziyin's battleship, which had already been severely damaged, suddenly lost its
After being fixed, a large amount of sea water poured in from the damaged side, and it accelerated towards the sea and sank.
Qi Ziyin immediately looked back, only to see that most of the soldiers behind him were still unable to attack the enemy ship with him. He understood that if the stalemate continued like this, not only would the soldiers who jumped on the deck be outnumbered, but even everyone else on his ship would be outnumbered.
Will be buried in the belly of a fish.
To make matters worse, the soldiers guarding Yufang Qi had reorganized their defense. Although the young man in white and his soldiers successfully destroyed the foremast and jib sail on the bow of the enemy ship, when they reached the halfway point of the ship, they could no longer attack.
It can't be attacked.
The hooks hanging on the side of the ship were still falling off one after another, and the situation became more and more critical. Qi Ziyin, who was suffering from anxiety, suddenly stared at the tall mainmast of Ye Guo's flagship that was surrounded by heavy human walls:
"We must not let them escape so easily!"
He was thinking this, but his brows were getting tighter and tighter - at the moment, the main sail of the enemy ship was still forty or fifty steps away from him, and the soldiers who followed him to the enemy ship were all only capable of close combat.
It seems that apart from climbing up the mast and cutting off the sail ropes with a sharp weapon, it seems that it is almost impossible to stop the enemy ship.
The young man thought for a moment, then suddenly took two steps back, crouched down on the deck and started searching. Soon, he found a firebolt blunderbuss that had been loaded but had not yet been used. Following the example of Ye Guojun before, he
He immediately raised the gun in his hand and aimed at the rope that looked as thick as hair at the top of the main sail. However, the ship's hull was swaying, making it impossible to aim accurately!
"Let me help you!"
When Leng Jiayun saw this, she immediately understood the young man's intention, ran to him and knelt down on one knee, using her hands, feet, and limbs to immobilize her body and build a relatively stable human body support for the other person.
"Sister Jia, you must not..."
Qi Ziyin looked at the firebolt gun in his hand, and then at the woman in front of him. He didn't know what to do for a moment... The firebolt gun was more than three feet long, but if the part held in his hand was removed, there was only less than a foot left.
If she was placed on Leng Jiayun's shoulders like this, the fire-breathing gun would definitely burn her severely.
"It's already this time, why are you saying something is wrong? Do you want everyone to die here together? You only have one chance, so don't let me miss the shot!"
The Dongli woman slapped her shoulders hard with her hands, signaling the young man not to worry.
Qi Ziyin nodded this time, no longer hesitating, and placed the firebolt gun in his hand on his companion's shoulder. Although it was still shaking a little, he slowed down his breathing, minimizing the trembling of his body, and clicked the button
Mechanism used for firing.
With a loud noise, scorching tongues of flame surged from the fire bolt muzzle. The tip of the flame sprayed on the left side of Leng Jiayun's cheek, immediately burning the hair at her temples and curling up, and the skin on her face was immediately burned.
However, this woman who wanted to avenge her lover did not even tremble.
The lead bullet flew out from the gun's mouth, but it missed by a hair. It did not directly break the sail rope, but only opened a shallow small opening in it. But it was enough. The strong wind that never stopped, now became
The young man received the most powerful helping hand. The seemingly inconspicuous scar, pulled by the strong wind, instantly doubled in size, and then was further torn apart until only the last one remained.
The slender fibers barely held up in the wind.
Finally, a soft sound reached everyone's ears, reminding them that the rope had finally broken completely. The sail on the mainmast of Ye Guo's flagship lost the pull of the rope and slid down from the crossbar like a huge curtain.
.
What followed was panic and fear on Ye Guojun's face, and a burst of fierce cheers from Qi Ziyin's soldiers. Taking this opportunity, Qi Ziyin jumped onto the center of the deck, where a place was used to stack ammunition.
Standing on the small platform, he used all his strength to shout loudly towards the military formation on the opposite side:
"I - Qi Ziyin, the only heir of the late king in the world. When I come back this time, I just want to make the country of Ye return to its former beauty, wealth and war-free appearance! You are all good men of the country of Ye, and many of you have been
They are the old subordinates of General Baili! I don’t want to meet you all today, and I advise you not to be the sanctimonious accomplices who killed my father’s criminal ministers! If you can lay down your weapons today, I promise to let bygones be bygones in the future!”
As he spoke, he raised the long sword as red as blood in his hand and pointed it at Qi Shouyu who was standing on the command platform. The soldiers with white silk ribbons on their arms also cheered in unison to cheer him on——
Ever since the new king came to the throne, his officers and men have never heard anyone criticize him. The naval commander who he unconditionally obeyed, the newly succeeded king, was actually a regicide and usurper of the throne. Seeing this situation now.
, all turned their heads to look towards the general platform.
"Don't listen to the traitor's instigation! He killed the old king with his own hands, and he is the villain who killed his father and king! Hurry up and take down this traitor for me! If you take him today, he will be beheaded.
Those who do, will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold and given the title of a thousand households!"
Although Qi Shouyu roared like this, he still involuntarily took two steps back, fearing that some of the soldiers around him would directly capture him. This made his soldiers become more suspicious:
"My lord, the silver reward from the previous war with Chengguo has not yet been distributed to the brothers. Is it possible that any promises made at this time are just pie in the sky?"
"Yes, dozens of my fellow villagers died in the battle, but the pension has disappeared, and I don't know whose pocket it went into!"
The once famous Ye Guo Zhou Division was no longer the formidable and forbidding force that Xiang Baili had led. At this time, everyone from the generals to the infantry had no intention of fighting anymore, let alone their former comrades.
They killed each other and lost a life in vain. What's more, some of them actually put down their weapons on the spot.
Originally, the two sides were in a stalemate, and the situation, which was easy to defend but difficult to attack, took an unexpected turn in the blink of an eye!
"You, how dare you disobey your own king's orders and instead listen to what a traitor says!"
Qi Shouyu roared angrily. However, no matter what he said, the soldiers on the ship refused to listen anymore. Only a few Mo Ling guards he brought from the palace were still standing in front of him with long blades in their hands.
"Uncle Wang, any resistance you have will be in vain. Now if you are willing to bow your head and plead guilty, for the sake of my uncle and nephew, I can still spare your life!"
Qi Ziyin passed through the dark crowd of soldiers in front of him and stepped onto the towering general platform step by step.
"Spare my life? Why do you do that! Anyone who spares his life today and refuses to help me is an accomplice of this thief, and his crime is unforgivable! Just follow him and die together!"
Duke Ye's face, which was full of flesh, suddenly showed a hint of ferocity, and he roared loudly with foam at the mouth, then threw his head up to the sky and laughed several times, as if he was possessed by a mad demon.
Before Qi Ziyin could continue to persuade him to surrender, Leng Jiayun rushed forward from behind again. This time, the woman struggled to hold on to the boy's belt and skirt, and pushed him into the sea under the side of the ship without any explanation!
He only had time to take a half-breath, and the young man wearing the mask was enveloped by the cold and biting sea water. At the same time, a huge explosion like muffled thunder was heard in the cabin of the Ye Kingdom battleship where he had previously stood. Until Only then did he realize that Qi Shouyu, who was desperate, secretly ignited the saltpeter used to load the cannons on the ship among the rebels, hoping to kill himself and everyone on the ship together!
