After dozens of steps, there was no room for maneuver. The oarsmen on the Xingchen pushed hard at the last moment, and the tall bow of the Xingchen suddenly jumped up several feet, like a beast rising from the sea.
He jumped on the bow of the pirate ship ahead.
The solid iron armor crushed the Curry's bow with a huge impact, like a hammer hitting a piece of tofu. The seemingly solid wooden sailboat's bow fell apart under the huge pressure, and the wooden frame collapsed.
The pieces shattered with a crackling sound. The entire bow of the Curry was directly pressed into the water, the stern was raised, and the pirates and debris on the ship fell like raindrops. Some fell into the sea, and some were smashed.
on board.
Screams, horrified cries, the sound of falling into the water, the cracking of the hull, and the harsh friction sound of iron armor rubbing against the deck of a wooden sailboat sounded at the same time. It made people's scalp numb and goosebumps all over their body.
A large number of pirates on the ship were hanging on the tilted mast and ropes, using their last stubbornness to refuse to let go. But as the Star pressed more of the ship into the water like crushing tofu, the Curry's stern had been crushed into pieces.
It was tilted seventy or eighty degrees, the bottom of the boat was facing upward, and it was almost about to fall upside down.
Everything on the ship was dumped down like garbage. The pirates fell from high places one after another, smashed heavily on the messy beams and wooden poles, or fell into the sea. Some actually fell on the bow deck of the Star.
Suddenly he was shot into a hedgehog by a row of bows and arrows.
In the ship's hall of the Star, Catherine held Zhang Yanling's waist tightly and turned to look at the strange scene ahead. The collision just now really frightened her. She did not expect that Zhang Yanling would force the ship to directly hit his opponent.
Not only was this person not afraid at all, but he burst into unbridled laughter during the impact, which really made Catherine roll her eyes to the sky. Although Zhang Yanling protected her, her buttocks were still heavily pressed against the wall.
I hit it and it hurt like hell.
But the strange sight in front of the cabin was rare in her life, so she endured the pain and turned around to look. From the angle of the cabin, the raised stern of the other ship was flush with the cabin, and she could clearly see the masts and ropes hanging on it.
, the pirates were holding on to the stern side of the ship and refusing to let go, struggling and shouting. This scene was both shocking and funny. Catherine had never seen such a strange scene in her life.
"Kalala!" A huge breaking sound sounded, and the tilted stern of the ship suddenly fell. The huge inertia made the pirates hanging on the stern and mast fly into the air like projectiles, and they fell into the sky out of sight.
The position under the bow of the Zvezda.
"What's going on?" Catherine exclaimed in surprise.
Zhang Yanling said with a smile: "It's nothing, their ship was just broken. It entered the water and was hit again, and the hull could not hold up. In front of my Ming Dynasty iron-clad ship, these pirate ships are like clay sculptures and paper."
This is exactly what happened. The pirate's wooden sailboat was crushed, the front part of the hull entered the water, and the structure was damaged. Under the huge weight of the stern and the pressure of the incoming seawater, the entire hull was broken into two parts like a dead tree. High
The cocked stern of the ship crashed into the sea, and the aftermath rippled out in all directions. The waves on the sea surged and the waves splashed.
The stern of the ship dropped like this, revealing the Yoga on the side and rear, which was hurriedly turning to escape from the collision route. The Yoga had already been affected, and it was originally next to the Curry, but the Curry jumped more than 20 years ahead.
steps, so we bear the brunt of it.
When the Star hit the Curry, the curry's stern had been lifted up and the sides of the bow and sides of the Yoga had been swept into pieces. However, the position was higher, above the waterline, so no water entered. Moreover, the force of this sweep would instead destroy the Yoga.
The Yoga was pushed to the outside, speeding up the distance to escape.
However, there was only a few dozen breaths of time between them, and the distance between the Yoga and the Curry was not far enough. The stern of the Curry hit the water. The green waves splashed loudly, and the waves were so high that the damaged bow of the Yoga was instantly destroyed.
A large amount of sea water poured in. At the same time, the Yoga was also exposed to the Star's sight.
With its inertia, the Star slipped over the wreckage of the Curry. The bow of the ship rushed into the damaged stern of the Curry, smashing it into powder. It rushed out amidst a splash of blood, flesh and wood, and rushed straight towards the Yoga.
Black Dog Modi stood at the sound of the mast, his body shaking as the ship's hull continued, and he screamed hysterically.
"Turn, turn, break away. Break away."
The pirates on the Yoga know that life and death are at stake, and their years of wandering on the sea come into play at this moment. For these pirates, the level of control over the ship is naturally very high. The sails rotate, the rudder swings, and the human power
With a sudden force, the Yoga rushed towards the side of the Star, gliding forward at a strange angle. They rushed towards the parallel north side of the Star. In this way, before the Star hit them, they could
Dodge like a swimming fish.
This is the advantage of the small ship making it easy to turn around. Although the Star is flexible in operation, it is absolutely impossible to react and change direction in such a short distance. Therefore, they can only watch Yoga.
The number slid past the bow of the ship.
Black Dog Modi stood on the mast crossbar and looked down at the opponent's deck, stroking his snow-white beard and laughing loudly. Although it was dangerous, he couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the astonished looks on the faces of the sailors on the opponent's deck.
Get up and feel the pleasure of teasing the other person.
The sailors of the Ming Dynasty were really shocked. They even forgot that they had bows, arrows, muskets and golden melons in their hands, and no one opened fire on the enemy ship which was only less than twenty steps away. This was really unprecedented.
.
However, Black Dog Modi suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he didn't know what was wrong. In short, he just felt that something was wrong. The expressions of the sailors on the other side's deck seemed not to be surprised, but to be mocked.
In particular, there was a tall man who looked like an armored officer, grinning, his face full of pity and ridicule.
Black Dog Modi's mind was confused for a while, and his heart was empty. But the empty heart was filled with fear in the next moment. His eyes moved, and he saw a row of black holes in the muzzle very close to him. In an instant, Black Dog Modi
Everything is understood.
The soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty on the deck looked at them mockingly. That was because the Yoga's rush sent them to the gun port on the right side of the Star's ship. Since the Star's expedition, there had never been any
Facing the enemy who came to be fired at at such a close distance. Seeing the pirate ship just sliding past the starboard side, the gunners in the cabin thought this must be a dream.
"What are you doing standing still? Fire." A loud command woke everyone up.
"Oh oh oh." All the gunners woke up from a dream and hurriedly started firing. Some even burned their hands in the panic.
"Boom boom boom boom!"
More than a dozen cannonballs were fired, none of them missed, and they all penetrated directly through the Yoga pirate ship. The Yoga exploded several times on the sea surface twenty steps away from the Star. Flames and fragments flew everywhere, covering all the sea surface within a radius of dozens of steps.
It was smoke and fire. A huge sailing ship turned into pieces in an instant and disappeared on the sea.
Black Dog Modi made the most correct choice. He immediately jumped from the mast beam into the water on the other side, which was the most likely place to escape. However, while in mid-air, he was hit by a flying stick.
The lifted wooden board hit the back of the head firmly, and he fainted instantly. After falling into the sea, he fell into the depths of the sea like a weight.
Outside of Lishi, Timothy had a panoramic view of all this. In an instant, his most valued black dog Modi and his Yoga were turned into powder. The opponent's armored warship actually hit his own ship with the strength of the ship.
As if he was in a deserted place, he didn't pay attention to Timothy's troops at all.
There is only one enemy ship, but it is so arrogant and domineering. What a humiliation. If he can't regain his position, how can he, Black Shark Timothy, gain a foothold in the future? Wouldn't he be ridiculed to the extreme? If he doesn't kill the enemies on the other side's ship,
Kill them all, why would Timothy call him a black shark? He would be more like a soft-footed shrimp.
"Bring them all to me, charge the whole army. Board the ship and kill people." Timothy shouted the order.
The horn sounded, and there were more than a dozen pirate ships on the sea. They were like a group of bloodthirsty sharks, desperately surrounding the Star. Timothy was already red-eyed, regardless of whether he was accidentally injured.
On his own ship, he ordered the gunners on board to continuously bombard the Star while approaching quickly.
The Star had now rushed into the middle of the remaining three pirate ships on the south side. These three ships were all men of Black Dog Modi. Originally, they were going to get closer and board the ship, but after seeing the fate of the Curry and Yoga
, they decisively chose to turn around.
The Star quickly cut into the middle of them, and the bird cannons and bows on the deck began to fire. The pirates hanging on the sails of the ship were like birds perched on the branches, and they were all live targets. The bird cannons were fired in rows,
The pirates were hit and fell down one by one. The rest hurriedly fled down the mast rope ladder. In the panic, more than a dozen people were injured in the fall.
There was chaos on the sea. The Star was chasing three pirate ships, and Timothy led other ships to chase the Star. Several injured sailboats were burning on the sea, and a large number of pirates were calling for help on the sea. There was the sound of cannon again,
There was the sound of birds and gunshots, smoke and fire, and it was almost like a pot of porridge.
It's not that Zhang Yanling didn't care about the enemy's siege. He didn't want to be surrounded by the opponent, so he adopted the guerrilla warfare method of shuttling in and using artillery, firearms, bows and arrows to deal with the enemy. Blindly ramming the enemy ship not only slowed down the ship, but actually the iron armor also
It can't withstand too many hits. Therefore, using this roaming shooting strategy is actually the best strategy to hit more with less. For a while, the opponent has nothing to do with itself.
Timothy also saw the opponent's intention to wander away. He ordered the two large ships to rush directly towards the channel in front of the Star to act as roadblocks. As long as the Star was blocked, the other ships were already very close, and soon
You can surround your opponent. The shark tactic will be effective.
Although doing so might cost him two warships, he no longer cared about it.
But at this moment, another scream came from Singer in front of the cabin.
"It's not good, it's not good."
"Son of a bitch, what's wrong?" Timothy yelled angrily.
"Their reinforcement ships have arrived. One from the south and one from the north. They are all big ships... They are all big ships..." Singer's voice changed and he shouted tremblingly.
Timothy's whole body was cold. The other party had sent a signal before to summon his companions. He had been delayed for too long, and the fight had lasted for almost half an hour. The other party's help came.
After only glancing at the opponent's reinforcements through the telescope, Timothy gave up the idea of ​​continuing to fight. All he saw were large beast-headed ships like the armored warship in front of him. A ship that was so brave, why bother with another one?
Two ships came. They must have crashed today.
Those who don't know how to accept things when they are good will not be able to eat the next year's curry. A proverb came to mind. Timothy made a prompt decision and issued an order for all troops to retreat. The Ganges was the first to turn around, quickly distanced itself, and evacuated the battlefield.
