Chapter Twenty-Eight: Battle!

"Look!" Hans sighed into his palms and rubbed his hands, loaded them, and focused on aiming at the pirate flagship, securing the barrel and picking up the torch.

"Wait a minute!" Zheng Fei motioned for him to stop, and at some point there was an extra rope in his hand, and he quickly tied the telescope tightly to the barrel of the gun.

"Aim for this. ”

Hans tilted his neck in confusion, then his eyes snapped together.

"Damn, why is it so big!" he reacted as if he had seen a sea monster, dumbfounded.

"Heh, don't worry about it for now, give the pirate flagship two shots!"

If Hans was eager to try it before, now he is rolling up his sleeves and full of confidence, fine-tuning the barrel to aim at the flagship cockpit and ignition!

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the cannonball burst out of the smoke and drew a black shadow in the air, screaming straight towards the target, and in the expectant eyes of the sailors, it plopped!

The powerful cannonballs entered the sea and set off huge waves, turning the pirate ship that was only a few meters long, and the pirates were immediately confused.

"Don't panic!" the pirate leader raised his command knife, calmed down, gritted his teeth and ordered: "Prepare the artillery! Aim at the target and launch it yourself!"

On the New World, cold sweat oozed from Hans's forehead, and he hurriedly filled in another cannonball to adjust the angle, and was about to atone for his crimes, only to hear the other party's bang,

"Get down!" Zheng Fei shouted, and immediately lay down to protect his head, and the sailors followed in panic.

A moment later, there was a crackling sound on the deck, but it didn't wait for the shells to hit the hull of the ship.

Zheng Fei quickly got up and patted Hans on the shoulder to make him fight back, then turned his head and glanced at the deck.

There were countless black particles the size of fingernails lying on the deck, and the ship was unharmed but looked dirty, with many small holes in the sails.

The artillery used by the other side was so shoddy? Zheng Fei was surprised.

The pirates use shotguns, which deal long-range, wide-area minor damage, and while the granular cannonballs cannonball cannons cannong, they can still hurt sailors.

The reason why shotguns were used, in addition to the fact that shipborne guns were expensive, was more important because pirates wanted intact ships and cargo, not a sunken ship.

"Bang!"

Hans's second shell hit the cockpit of the flagship, and the pirate leader was suddenly reduced to a sea of fire, which swept across the deck.

"Little cubs, this is called artillery!" Zheng Fei shouted at the top of his voice, cheering and clapping his hands with Hans, and the sailors who had felt on the verge of death a few seconds ago pinched their faces and found that they were still alive.

After a brief panic, the pirates climbed up the flagship with buckets of water, trying to extinguish the fire and then fight back with their shotguns.

Looking at the hundreds of "firefighters", Zheng Fei raised his arm and ordered: "All artillery is ready to fire, give them a few fire coverage!"

Bang bang!

Dozens of shells set off a terrible howl in the opponent's waters, and the small boat several meters long was broken by the waist, and the pirates who did not have time to escape were bloody in an instant.

Wounded by this violent beating, the pirates were killed and wounded, and those who survived were all lying motionless and did not dare to move, trembling and waving the white flag.

In order not to waste the shells, Zheng Fei motioned to the sailors to stop firing the cannons, and then turned around and went to clean up the mess.

There were many shattered planks floating on the sea, and the pirates who had not climbed the flagship were fluttering in the sea with the planks in their arms, watching in horror as the New World approached, their faces full of black gray wolves.

All the small ships except the flagship were broken or capsized, Zheng Fei led the sailors to the flagship deck, holding sharp daggers in their hands, scanning the pirates lying on the deck and pretending to be dead, and said, "Are there any alive?!"

No one dares to say anything, and Westerners understand the truth of shooting a bird in the head.

Zheng Fei understood, bit his lip and said, "Guys, since the pirates are all dead, let's make up for each corpse!"

"Don't!" Someone finally got up, and then one after another, dozens of people got up, more or less with wounds on their bodies, and the black wounds were oozing blood.

The pirates saw nothing but fear in their eyes, and the best naval guns in Europe had deprived them of their ferocity, and they could no longer muster the courage to resist.

"Who are you?" Zheng Fei asked as he stood on the deck and stared at them proudly.

The pirate timidly pointed to the banner and replied in a muffled voice, "Sir Henry's men."

"How many years have you been doing this?"

"Five years less, ten years more"

"Have you ever killed someone?"

After the silence, the pirate replied with no conscience, and his evasive gaze made Zheng Fei see the flaw.

How could it be that he had not killed anyone after ten years of being a pirate, he must have been in a lot of blood debt!!) He thought so, and clenched the handle of the dagger indignantly.

That's when Santiago asked, "Captain, what to do with this group of people?"

Cut them off, no, their sinful blood will stain their own hands!

The pirates saw the anger in his eyes and hurriedly said, "Please don't kill us, we can serve you as your sailors!"

"Yes, we can still give you all the money we have looted over the years!"

"We can introduce you to Sir Henry, and ask him to find someone to knight you!"

Zheng Fei was still standing like that, unmoved at all, because these conditions were not tempting to him at all.

Putting a bunch of pirates as henchmen is tantamount to luring a wolf into the house.

Is Lao Tzu short of that money?

I'm sorry, I don't like it!

He had to kill the pirates, even if they didn't have a blood debt on their hands!

"Santiago, take someone to the cabin to get their supplies, then tie them all up, and stab them to death if they dare to resist!" he said in a deep voice, his eyes cold.

"Tie them up, we'll starve to death!" a pirate who didn't know the height of the sky teased in a shrieked voice, guessing that Zheng Fei was going to tie them up on the ship to fend for themselves, which meant that he had escaped - he could not starve to death at sea, and he could catch dozens of catties of fish with a single net.

Seeing that Zheng Fei didn't kill himself, the pirates were much more relaxed, and some even whistled, restoring their true colors and being scoundrels.

"Fish out the pirates who have fallen into the water and tie them together!

The pirates scoffed, as if to say, "Do you think you can't break free with chains?"

After tying all the pirates together, the sailors took a few breaths and asked Zheng Fei, "Captain, just leave them here?"

Zheng Fei looked at the group of scoundrels and said flatly: "Take two barrels of spirits, the worst one." ”

The pirates were so happy when they heard that this guy left us two barrels of wine?haha, there's something wrong with your brain, right?

However, Zheng Fei's next sentence made them shudder and fall into endless panic!
