Shui Sheng stood nervously on the tuyere, he skillfully measured the wind direction and speed, and then used clairvoyance to detect the distance between the two fleets, once the opponent entered the firing range, he calculated the most accurate angle of artillery strike, and completely killed the opponent within the effective range. Although he had practiced countless times before this, and knew the new artillery very well, he was still very nervous when the first battle was about to begin.

"The boss is a hard bone~!" A small leader of the pirates observed the fleet that was about to come up in front with clairvoyance, with the current distance between the two sides, he could already vaguely see the pattern on the flag fluttering on the other party's ship, he was not unfamiliar with the pattern, it was the symbol of the Huo family's fleet, and judging from the number of the opponent's fleet, this fleet did not exceed 100, it should be just a medium-sized fleet of the Huo family, but even if it was like this, the Huo family's fleet was not so easy to start, and people who begged for a living at sea knew that the Huo family's fleet had always been well-equipped。

"It was a hard bone!" Captain Hertz laughed, scratching his messy beard, "It's because of the hard bones! I've been eyeing this fleet for a long time, this is a fat sheep, we can rest for at least two years after we take them down!"

Hertz's words fell into the ears of the pirates on the ship, and everyone's emotions instantly rose, although they are pirates, but they are not the kind of people who are completely deadly, if they can slaughter this fat sheep, and then rest beautifully for two years, who would not want that!

So everyone began to shout excitedly, and this emotion quickly radiated to other ships with this ship, and more than 20 pirate ships were soon enveloped by this atmosphere, everyone seemed to be addicted to the good life in their hearts that was about to come, and the other party's fleet became a lamb to be slaughtered in their eyes!

"Captain, the pirate fleet is already in range!" the lookout in charge of the lookout lowered his clairvoyance and shouted below.

"Order to attack~~!" Huo Shibai stood at the bow of the ship, tightly holding the mast on the ship, and gave the order to attack.

"Attack~~!"

"Attack~~~!"

"Attack~~~!"

The herald shouted one after another, and when the order reached the ears of the waterman, he had already calculated the exact angle in his mind.

"Angle five, plus or minus three, try to design once!" shouted the aquatic life.

The gunners who received the order immediately adjusted the gun to the correct angle and began to fire the first round of shells. The shells landed on the sea when they were still some distance away from the pirate ship, causing huge splashes.

And those pirates were really startled when they saw the artillery firing over, there must have been some distance between the two sides, at least the artillery on their ship had not yet reached the range of attack, but when they saw that the shells were still a long distance away from them, they couldn't help but start laughing, because in their opinion, this was a sign of the other party's fear of seeing them, and this cannonball was also fired in a panic, there was no distance and accuracy at all, as for why they could hit so far, in their opinion, it was just because of good luckOccasionally, their artillery must have been in this situation.

But when the next round of shells flew in, the pirates couldn't laugh, because the other team's shells hit their ships and the surrounding sea accurately, followed by the second and third rounds······ Several rounds of shells hit them in a row.

"Boss~~!How can the range of their artillery be so far?I see~~~ I think we should retreat!" Hertz's small leader said fearfully, the current situation is that their artillery is still a long distance away from the opponent, and the opponent's artillery can accurately hit them, in this case, they are completely in a passive situation. If this continues, they will definitely be wiped out before they get there!

Hertz suddenly pulled out his knife and slashed it down, the other party was considered to be hacked to death, and he waved his bloody long knife and shouted: "All the clippers obey the order, pull up the sails and advance quickly, we will board the ship~~~!"

After giving the order, Hertz clenched his broadsword, staring at the fleet in front of him, and his eyes were full of greed, it turned out that the other party not only had a ship full of goods, but also such a powerful artillery, if he could win such a cannon to equip his own pirate ship, then this sea area itself could become the first king!

For Hertz's order, the pirates under his command did not hesitate to begin to execute, for them, although such a situation does not occur often, but it is not impossible, they live this kind of life on the knife edge, and everything they have is obtained through murder and robbery, so even if they face death, they will rush over desperately, because they know very well in their hearts that only if they rush through in this way can they have a way to live, if they retreat now, they will be chased by the other party and beaten, it is estimated that there is little chance of survival。

Abandoning the slower ships, Hertz rushed towards Huo XVIII's fleet with nine clippers at a very fast speed, although two more ships were damaged during the charge, but the remaining seven ships also successfully touched Huo XVIII's fleet, and the pirates on the ship screamed strangely, speaking with various accents, and threw the flying claws in their hands to the opposite ships.

In their opinion, even if the other party has such powerful artillery, but as long as they engage in hand-to-hand combat, the opponent's strength will be gone, and as for the ships they have been beaten now, they don't care about it, anyway, as long as they board the ship, this big ship is theirs, and this is better than the ships before them.

"Touch~~!touch~~!touch~~~!"

With a series of noises, the pirates who were about to board the ship fell with blood holes in their bodies. There were even a lot of pirates who didn't know what was going on, but when they did, they found that there were no more living people around, and they soon became the next target of death!

"Boss~~!" a crew member carrying a spear stood in front of Huo Shibai with an excited face, "We have annihilated all the pirates who came to attack, including the leader of the pirates, and we have also determined the identity of the other party, he is the famous fangs in this sea area recently-Hertz! Boss, we have killed a powerful character!"

You must know that they have not encountered pirates before, and with their strong equipment, they can also compete with the Qihu of the pirates who came to fight, but it is the first time that they can wipe out the other party so easily in a situation like today, not to mention that they have not lost anyone on their side at all.

"Haha~~~!" Huo Shibai heard this, touched his very neatly trimmed beard and laughed, "Okay~~!Okay~~~!Go and let someone cut off that Hertz's head for me and hang it on the bow of the ship, so that those pirates who don't have eyes know that we are not easy to mess with!"

"Yes~~!"

With Huo XVIII's order, Hertz's head was quickly hung on the bow of the ship, and the corpses of those pirates were not wasted, and the bodies that could be found were piled up on a relatively intact pirate ship, and then the flag belonging to their fleet was planted on the pirate ship, and then the ship was allowed to drift freely in the direction of the current, which was the easiest way to deal with the defeated at sea, and it was also the most deterrent method, but such a cruel method was used by pirates in the past, and it was the first time that the fleet completely annihilated the pirates！

With Hertz's head and the pirate ship drifting on the sea with the current, a news about the Huo family's fleet spread quickly in this sea area, although everyone still didn't know how this Huo family's fleet defeated the famous fangs- Hertz's, but the death of the other party and the record of the total annihilation of the pirates under his command all announced the strength of this Huo family fleet to everyone, and those who wanted to fight the idea of this fleet behind also secretly weighed their own strength to see if they could take down the other party.

And in this case, the entire Huo family's fleet has also benefited, it must be in the eyes of many outsiders, the Huo family's fleet is one, since the combat effectiveness of this fleet is so amazing, then the other fleets may be the same, before they have completely figured out the strength of the other party, many people have withdrawn the hand that has been stretched out, and for a while, the entire Huo family's fleet on the sea has become the safest fleet!

It is also because of the reputation of this battle, and at the same time, after he has enough confidence in those weapons, Huo Eighteen began to eat a large amount of goods, you must know that in the past, in order to ensure that you can escape as quickly as possible when encountering pirates and wind and waves at sea, it is impossible to fill the goods on the cargo ship, but now the situation of encountering storms in this season is relatively low, and because of absolute force, they don't have to be afraid of pirates, so this time Huo Eighteen plans to get a big vote.

"Boss, this place really produces diamonds!" Hoda grabbed the brush in his hand and registered the purchased diamonds in the ledger, the production of diamonds in this place is really amazing, but the locals only regard this thing as an ordinary stone, and they only need to pay a small amount of items in exchange for a large number of diamonds.

"That's ~~!Since Miss said that there are a lot of diamonds here, then there must be a lot of diamonds here!Miss will never be wrong in her words!" Huo Shibai raised his head and said proudly, in his eyes, his own young lady is omnipotent, and even now in his heart, Miss is even more powerful than Qiu Lao at the beginning!

"Boss, what are we going to do next?are we going to go down, or are we going to go back?" asked Hoda, this was the farthest distance they could reach at the moment, but because their fleet was now equipped with strong force, it was not impossible to move on, but they just needed to consider some dangers in the new sea.

"Return~!" Huo 18 said without thinking about it, although the fleet is still capable of continuing to advance to the unknown seas, but there will be many variables in the face, and this time the sea area they advanced into is much farther away than in the past, so the most suitable time is a conservative return trip, of course, the most important thing is that Huo 18 feels that after he has been away here for so long, maybe Miss She has something to say, and now he has always been thinking about what Miss said back then, everyone is actually living on a ball, he wants to verify Miss's statement, not that he doubts what Miss said in his heart, but he wants to prove to the world how great his young lady is.

The fleet had already harvested enough cargo, and even if there were some places left on the ship, they would be quickly filled on the route back. So after Huo Eighteen's order, the fleet began to return!

But even if it is a return voyage, it is not so fast to go back, because to avoid the storm season, so the fleet has to change the course, and even need to make a detour, sometimes in case of any unpredictable situation, it is normal to go on this road for a year or two, but even if it is like this, going home is what everyone yearns for, so after determining the return trip, the atmosphere of the entire fleet has become unprecedentedly high, especially this time the fleet's cargo is also unprecedentedly large, and they, the ordinary crew, can not only share fifty percent of the benefits of these goods, Huo Eighteen did not object to them bringing some private goods in private, so for them ordinary sailors, this is also a lot of income, and when they return home safely, this money can definitely improve their family's life!

Although it is said to be a return voyage, Huo Shibai still has a lot of things to do, the most important thing is to draw more detailed nautical charts and maps of the New World, because these things have always been of interest to his own young lady!
