Chapter 460: Dark Clouds

The Fire Centipede Ship is a small warship, with a slender hull, about eight feet, but only one cabin, like a large flat centipede lying on the surface of the sea.

There are more than 20 square holes on the sides of the fire centipede ship, which can be used for paddles in peacetime, and in wartime, you can use fire guns, bows and arrows to shoot outward from the holes, and you can also spray fire dragons to attack nearby enemy ships.

The so-called fire dragon is actually to spray the flammable tung oil with a bamboo tube, and then put a rocket to ignite it. So in the cabin of the centipede ship, there are many bamboo tubes filled with tung oil, as well as bundles of rockets.

The Centipede Ship can not only be used for melee attacks, but also can be used for patrolling outside the water due to its slender hull and shallow draft.

Ma Chun's fire centipede ship is here to work.

Ma Chun sat on the floor of the cabin, his left elbow resting on the tung oil cylinder, leaning on his right shoulder with a bundle of rockets, and holding a large porcelain vase in his hand.

The porcelain bottle also contained half a flammable liquid, but instead of tung oil, it was spirits. And the other half of this bottle of wine has been poured into Ma Chun's stomach, and now his mind is a little dizzy, and his vision is a little blurred.

Ma Chun is the head of this fire centipede ship, and the thirteen minions on the ship are all his subordinates, and among the pirates of the "Black Dragon Palace", he can be regarded as the leader of the lowest order.

For more than 40 days of besieging the island, he could only eat salted fish and dry food every day, there was neither good wine nor women, and Ma Chun's mouth had already faded out of the birds, and he had to be frightened every day, for fear that he would be sent to attack the island, and there would be no return.

The Okura Castle in front of you is certainly attractive, but even if the city is full of gold and silver, and the streets are full of beautiful women, it is in vain to look empty and not be able to attack it. These days, I went to storm the port and gorge every day, and many people have been killed and injured, and more than 20 ships have been sunk, and five days ago, the sixth, eighth, and ninth masters brought more than 1,000 brothers ashore to attack the city, and only half of them came back.

Fortunately, there were several brothers on the ship who were familiar with Ma Chun, and they brought him a bottle of liquor during the day, so he had a chance to take a few sips tonight.

Wine into the sorrow, the intestines are even more sorrowful. Ma Chun drank wine, not to use wine to kill his sorrows, on the contrary, he drank a few more sips because he was happy. The reason for his joy is that this ghost life is coming to an end.

In the past two days, the Hongyi cannons on both sides of the gorge have stopped firing, and the warships of Okura Castle have come out of the hole to meet the pirate ships that are attacking the gorge, which shows that there must be little gunpowder left in the city, and it is likely that it has been used up. Without artillery, Okura Castle would have become a toothless tiger, no different from a lamb.

Qiao Erye, who commanded the water village, had already ordered to launch a general attack on Okura Port early tomorrow morning, and by that time there would be more than 200 warships in the whole water village, and tens of thousands of brothers would attack Okura Port together, and the "Wanjintang" would definitely have no power to resist.

At this time tomorrow, Okura Castle will belong to the "Black Dragon Palace", and Ma Chun no longer needs to drink such bad wine in the cabin, but can go to the city to do whatever he wants!

Of course, Qiao Erye also said when he passed the order that at this moment, the "Wanjintang" is likely to fight back desperately, so it is necessary to strengthen the detection and guarding to prevent the other party from sneaking attack.

However, this matter has nothing to do with Ma Chun, just because the sea surface that Ma Chun's centipede boat is responsible for patrolling is the back side of the "Black Dragon Palace" water village, which is exactly the opposite direction of the Okura Island Port Gorge. Even if the "Wanjintang" wants to counterattack to the death, it will have others to deal with, and it is impossible to hit the place he patrols.

Therefore, Ma Chun was very relieved, tonight would be absolutely safe, and before he knew it, he drank a few more sips and fell asleep.

But at this moment, there was a sudden "dong dong" footsteps, and a pirate minion ran out of the cabin and shouted: "Report the horse! There seems to be some dark shadow on the sea in the northwest, come up and take a look!"

Ma Chun was awakened, his eyes widened, and he cursed: "What are you shouting nonsense! The northwest is the direction outside the island, and what you see must be dark clouds! Disturb Lao Tzu's sleep, get out of here!"

The minion was scolded and abruptly exited the cabin.

"Damn, it's a big thing to be shocked!" Ma Chun muttered, bringing the bottle to his lips and taking another big sip.

But before he could swallow his sip of wine, the pirate ran down again, and shouted, "The horse's head is finished!

Bastard! What is the end of the horse head! Ma Chun's heart was on fire, and he reached out and slapped the unscrupulous minion hard.

But now that he had woken up, Ma Chun decided to go out and take a look, which would save the fuss of these uninformed subordinates. He stood up, slouched out of the hatch and went up to the deck, and looked up, only to be amazed at the sight of the countless dark clouds coming over the sea!

Of course, this is not a real dark cloud, but the dark shadow of a cluster of ships, at least a hundred of them!

There were no lights on these ships, and they sailed on the sea in the dark of night, like the clouds floating. And each ship is much taller and longer than Ma Chun's centipede ship, and the most recent one has sailed to within thirty feet of the centipede ship, and by the dim skylight, Ma Chun can still see the muzzle of the black hole cannon exposed on the side of the other ship!

These ships are all warships! With a fleet of this size, the strength is by no means inferior to that of the Dragon Palace, and they have quietly sneaked here, and they must have raided the water village of the "Black Dragon Palace"!

Ma Chun immediately realized this. He saw one of his minions running into the cabin, kicked him to the ground, and yelled, "What are you going to do?"

The minion said: "The little one goes to the cabin to find fireworks, so that he can send a signal to the water village......"

Ma Chun shouted: "Idiot, what signal is there still to send! Hurry up and pull up the sails, tell the helmsman to turn the rudder, let's escape first!"

With so many warships coming head-on, his small centipede ship is not enough for the other party to fill in the gaps, of course, it is important to escape, and sending a fireworks signal to expose himself is tantamount to looking for death. Although Ma Chun had drunk a lot of wine before, he had woken up in fright now, and his mind was very clear.

It's just that it's too late to escape now, and when Ma Chun took the battleship of the opposite team as a dark cloud, the other party had already discovered his centipede ship. The helmsman had just turned the bow of the ship, and before the sails could be pulled up, only a roar was heard, and countless tongues of fire spit out from the muzzles, and more than a dozen warships fired cannons at the centipede ship at the same time!

"Damn, this hellish day is really over!" This is a thought in Ma Chun's heart.

A salvo of 100 pieces of artillery was fired, hundreds of iron bullets flew in, and the target was nothing more than a small wooden ship, and the centipede ship was smashed in the blink of an eye and scattered into a cloud of sawdust. Under such intensive artillery fire, even a single rat on the ship could hardly survive, and more than a dozen pirates were not missing, and all of them reported to the Hades Palace.

The bamboo tubes filled with tung oil in the cabin were ignited and exploded, and sparks flew and a raging fire ignited on the sea. Although the pirate minions did not send a fireworks signal to the water village of the "Black Dragon Palace", they did not expect the explosion of the centipede ship itself, but it completed the mission that Ma Chun should have completed.

And this explosion also kicked off the battle at Okura Island tonight.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ when Ma Chun's centipede ship was blown to pieces, dozens of ships had already sailed through the gorge and came to the open sea in the bay of Okura Port.

The water village of the "Black Dragon Palace" is just a few miles away on the sea.

Hearing the sound of an explosion coming from the rear of the water village, you can know that the attack of the imperial navy fleet has begun. The ships of Okura Castle all increased their speed and rushed in the direction of the water village, while the "Golden Jade" fell behind.

On the lookout at the bow of the ship, Sima Rulan pressed one hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist, but the jade face was full of anxiety, and said to the disciples of the "Wanjintang" on the side: "Other boats have rushed up, but we are sailing so slowly?

Hua Bushi smiled slightly and said, "You don't have to go." The 'Golden Jade' is a flag ship sitting in the rear, so it should go slower, and Peng Sanye must have been instructed by the owner of the Chai family to deliberately slow down the speed of the ship. ”

Sima Rulan sighed and said, "For more than a month, everyone has been defending the city in blood, but I can only sit in the city lord's mansion all day and can't help, and now it's still the case when it comes to the decisive battle! Hey, Uncle Chai and Elder Yao always don't let Lan'er get in danger, but I don't know how uncomfortable I feel when I see the disciples in the sect killing and getting injured, but I can't do anything!"

Hua Bushi said: "As the commander-in-chief, calmness and composure are the most important, and you must take into account the overall situation, Miss Lan'er is the lord of Okura City, and it is the primary responsibility to sit in command in the rear, you should understand the intentions of the Chai family master and Elder Yao." ”

Sima Rulan only hated that she couldn't let the "Golden Jade" sail to the front, so she rushed to the pirate water village to kill the enemy with a sword, but she also knew that what Hua Bushi said was not wrong, so she had to hold on to the hilt of the sword at this time and stop talking.

At this time, Zhao Xuhai, the head of Qian, who was standing on the side, opened his mouth and said: "You see, the ships in the 'Black Dragon Palace' water village are already moving, it seems that those pirates have discovered the imperial court sailors attacking from behind, and they are turning around to meet the enemy!"

Hua Bushi raised his eyes to watch, and sure enough, he saw the lights in the water village in front of him, all the pirate ships raised their sails, and some small clippers had sailed out of the gate.

Zhao Xuhai said: "While they turned behind the defense, the ships of the 'Wanjintang' rushed up, and they would definitely be able to kill them by surprise!"
