Chapter 15: Fierce Battle at Sea (2)

Sure enough, as Nangong Yu expected, the so-called pirate ship just now was a tentative attack, and according to the current situation, it is a question whether those people before were pirates or not.

"Enemy attack, it's a pirate ship, ready to fight. The slightly hurried voice of the captain of the soldiers resounded across the sea, and the black flag was painted with the skull flag, which represented the pirate fleet, and only the pirate fleet would fly such a flag.

The huge pirate ship slowly sailed with an oppressive momentum, gradually showing a situation of encirclement.

Five pirate ships crushed the water, like monsters in the depths, baring their fierce fangs, and under the cover of night, they pressed towards Anna's flagship.

And the soldiers on Anna's fleet seemed to have been frightened, and no matter how the captain shouted, their hands and feet were still trembling slightly.

Nangong Yu seemed very calm at this time, he used the internal force of the Yin and Yang Jue, and shouted at the helmsman: "Quick, turn the rudder." ”

The helmsman was obviously awakened by Nangong Yu's sudden shouting, so he reacted and hurriedly ordered the sailors to lift anchor, turn the direction of the ship, and sail towards Venice.

Anna was hiding tightly behind Nangong Yu at this time, when had she encountered such a huge pirate fleet, Nangong Yu could clearly feel that the girl's body was trembling slightly, "It's so unquiet tonight." ”

Nangong Yu protected Anna, his eyes staring at the pirate ship, the five huge ships were already very close to their fleet, and he could even vaguely see the pirates on the deck ready to go.

Anna's fleet also reacted at this time, the two frigates had already anchored and changed the rudder, but they were not trying to escape, but trying to intercept five huge pirate ships, although it looked like a mantis arm as a car, but after all, Anna was still on the flagship, and it was necessary to buy Anna's flagship a little time to evacuate.

Nangong Yu ran his internal force to the limit, and looked in the direction of the pirate ship, the five pirate ships didn't seem to see the frigate, and sailed straight towards Anna's flagship.

Nangong Yu said: "Anna, their goal doesn't seem to be a simple plunder, they are coming directly towards us. ”

Anna forcibly calmed down at this time, and tried to take two deep breaths, but her beautiful big eyes were still full of fear, after all, she was only a little girl in her teens, and she was attacked by such a big pirate, and it seemed that the target was still herself, how could she not be afraid?

Anna's voice began to tremble, and she said, "How can this be?"

Nangong Yu looked at Anna's nervous and scared appearance, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, with me, I will protect you." ”

Anna listened to Nangong Yu's words, and suddenly felt a lot more at ease, looking at Nangong Yu's still immature back, her heart didn't seem to be so nervous.

The soldiers on the flagship lit some torches, which slightly illuminated the sea. Anna poked her head out from behind Nangong Yu and saw the appearance of the pirate ship clearly, but she suddenly gasped and said: "This is Villanueva's assault fleet, not only has sails, but also oars on both sides of the ship, once they confirm the direction, they will lower the oars, and the manpower rowing will become very fast." How could such a ship have a relatively small cabin and are not generally used for plundering? ”

Nangong Yu did not feel frightened by Anna's words, in his previous life, during his tenure in Jinyiwei, he was surrounded by enemies and almost survived, although that time it was in the mountains and forests instead of on the sea, but Nangong Yu did not lack experience in dealing with the enemy at all. Judging by the way these pirates sailed, it was clear that they were in no hurry to board the ship, but wanted to slowly surround Anna's flagship.

Nangong Yu thought about it, pulled Anna to the side of the cabin, and said to her with a firm gaze: "Anna, it's dangerous on the deck now, you hide in the cabin for the time being, don't come out when you hear any sound." ”

Anna shook her head unexpectedly and said, "No, although I am afraid, this ship needs me to command, only I know the safe route, otherwise once we hit the rock, we really have nowhere to escape." ”

It seemed that Nangong Yu's words gave Anna confidence, and Anna trotted all the way to the stern, where the sailors at the helm were already weak, but still barely controlled the flagship in the direction of Venice.

Anna came to the sailor's side, took out a chart from her pocket, and pointed to the chart to keep the sailor correcting the course.

Nangong Yu stood beside Anna, vigilantly looking at the pirate ship behind her, as Anna said, the pirate ship at this time had locked the flagship, stretched out long oars from both sides of the ship, and rowed the sea water hard, originally the distance was still far away, but at this moment, it seemed that it had narrowed a lot of distance.

After Anna finished explaining the matter to the helmsman, she came to Nangong Yu's side, gently pulled his sleeve, and hid behind him again.

Nangong Yu was stunned, but he didn't say anything, at this time, the pirate ship quickly caught up, the three ships were slightly slower, following behind Anna's flagship, and the other two accelerated their oars and headed towards both sides of the flagship.

At this moment, many torches suddenly lit up on the deck of the enemy ship, and with a whistle, dozens of pirates armed with bows and arrows quickly came to the side of the ship, and aimed at Anna's flagship in unison.

When the ship was parallel to the flagship, the pirate at the head suddenly shouted: "Shoot the arrows." ”

"Sss

"Protect Miss Anna. Several soldiers shouted, jumped to their feet, raised their shields, and protected Anna, and with a few sounds, fended off the flying arrows.

Although the soldiers on the flagship are not as good as Nangong Yu, they have also experienced a lot of battles, but they have no bows and arrows, so they can only try their best to erect shields to resist the rain of arrows.

Several soldiers were around Anna, shields in their hands to protect Anna, and they blocked the arrows they shot, and some of the arrows could not resist, but at the moment when they were about to shoot at the soldiers, they suddenly lost their heads, or flew diagonally, or landed, and there was not a single arrow that hit the person. Nangong Yu stood proudly beside him, his face cold.

The two ships numbered about forty pirates, twice as many as the flagship's soldiers. And they are all fierce and skilled in archery. In a short time, unable to fight back, they could only defend passively, and three or four soldiers had already been hit by arrows and fell on the deck.

Nangong Yu flew up and picked up a shield that fell to the ground, swung it a few times, blocked the arrow that flew again, and roared in his mouth: "Quick, you take Anna to the cabin." ”

Those soldiers looked at Nangong Yu and hesitated, they should have followed the order of the captain of the soldiers, but at this time, the captain was already injured and fell on the deck, and the shield in Nangong Yu's hand belonged to the captain.

Seeing that these soldiers did not move, Nangong Yu was immediately anxious and said, "Quick, let you take Anna to the cabin, damn it, don't rub it in." ”

The soldiers then moved, bent over their waists, shielded Anna as much as they could, and walked towards the cabin.
