Chapter 152: The Power of the Iron Cannon
When Ma Laosan said these strategies, Cheng Kong felt that Ma Laosan looked like a wise man.
Well, to be honest, unless the guy who is in the position completely by his relationship background, which one of the people who has been mixed in the officialdom all these years is an idiot, and the person who can occupy the throne of the county party secretary, will his brain be stupid?
The rest is simple.
Cheng Kong sent the bearded man back to the farm, and all the spearmen and farmers were brought by him, and there were horses and three soldiers lined up.
Cheng Kong went upstream to lure the enemy.
When Cheng Kong saw the pirate fleet for the first time, he couldn't help but be shocked by the strength of the pirate fleet.
Although the three pirate ships were the same grounded, their hulls were larger than the pirate ships occupied by Mr. Ma.
In addition, there are more than a dozen small boats patrolling the river, and pirates returning from all over the world are sending some looted materials to the pirate ship.
The evaluation that Cheng Kong can give is that the soldiers are strong and strong.
This pirate force is extremely harmful to their farms, and with small boats, they naturally have a wide range of activities, and over time, they can easily find farms.
A patrol of about twenty people is patrolling along the riverbank.
Cheng Kong calculated the distance between this patrol and the other patrol, then took out a sharp arrow from the quiver, bit it on his mouth, put a sharp arrow on the bowstring, aimed at a point, and when the patrol team traveled to that point, he released the bowstring and the sharp arrow suddenly shot out.
Cheng Kong didn't care whether the sharp arrow hit the target or not, the arrow in his mouth quickly put on the big bow and loosened the bow.
After doing all this. Cheng Kong quickly turned around and fled.
At this time, one of the two pirate patrols was killed by an arrow piercing the heart.
There is no doubt that this sudden attack angered the pirates. In addition to the two patrols, a pirate ship also sent out pursuers.
After Cheng Kong escaped a hundred meters, he turned his head and looked at the number of pursuers, sixty people, it should be enough, Ma Laosan instructed that the number of pursuers attracted should not exceed eighty.
Next, what Cheng Kong needs to do is to seduce him in the escape, so that those pirates can't catch up with him and return.
The river flows slowly. There is no end to the past in one eye.
Ma Laosan was standing on the pirate ship at this time, looking upstream, a little nervous. This is my first time.
Before, because of inexperience, it was even surrounded and killed by web spiders, etc., but now that he occupies the right time and place, if he can't win, it's really better to hang himself.
The spearmen and the peasants mingled together. Two rows of people. The farmers only need to stab the dung forks out of the shackles, and the spearmen have the right time to strike.
In the distance, a figure ran over, followed by a cloud of dust and pirates.
"Ready!" It was about to start, Ma Laosan got excited and roared, and the pirate gunners began to load gunpowder and shells. And the muzzle movement was aimed in the direction where the figure was coming.
When the figure approached a hundred meters with the pirate, the iron cannon on the pirate ship opened fire.
With two loud bangs. Two cannonballs the size of a human head flew out of the iron cannon, and one fell into the group of pirates, and the skulls of the pirates who were hit were immediately smashed out of the body with great force, and became a blur of flesh and blood.
But that's not the end of it, the cannonballs carry a huge kinetic energy to dig two trenches of flesh and blood in the pirate horde.
Because the pirates were so close and the crowd was so dense, that two shells took more than a dozen lives in an instant.
"Reload quickly! Velocity! Ma Laosan had already focused his attention on the iron cannon at this time, and as for whether Cheng Kong was dead or alive, he didn't have to pay attention to it urgently.
Cheng Kong was startled when he saw the power of the cannonball, and suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the rope net.
The last time the pirates attacked the farm with iron cannons, most of the shells hit the buildings, so their power did not seem intuitive, but this time the cannonballs hit the crowd, with the help of the lethality caused by inertia, Cheng Kong felt that it was more exciting and bloody than seeing the battle scene on TV.
Two ditches made of flesh and blood, broken hands and legs.
If this cannonball hits itself, it is estimated that it will be killed in seconds.
Cheng Kong's feet exerted force, and the rope net was in front of him.
Boom, two more loud bangs of iron cannons.
Two shells crashed into the pirate crowd again, and a scream was heard.
In fact, this time the shells were not as lethal as the last one, killing five or six pirates, and a few were wounded and broke legs.
But the last time it was a surprise attack, the pirates didn't have time to react in fright, but this time they saw clearly how loud the shells from the ship were.
To say that these pirates are still very courageous, at least after two artillery strikes, they are still in hot pursuit.
Cheng Kong threw himself on the rope net, using his hands and feet together, and the leaf under his crotch had already been thrown to where he was thrown when he fled.
But at this time, Cheng Kong didn't have time to care about the relationship between the stick and the rope, so he climbed one word.
When Cheng Kong climbed the pirate ship, turned around and stretched his bow and arrows, the iron cannon was powerful again, but at this time, the iron cannon spewed grapes, and thousands of gravel sprayed out, splitting his head and covering his face towards the pirate who was close to the rope net.
The pirates at the center of the artillery fire were suddenly beaten into a sieve.
This kind of grape shell was originally used for close combat, and the shooting distance was only a few tens of meters, and if the gravel was used as a shell, the effective killing distance was no more than 30 meters, so for the sea engagement, once the grape bullet was used, then it meant that the next was a tragic gang fight.
The same is true for pirates who are already close to the rope nets.
The cannon was a good one, and the density increased as the pirates crowded around the rope net and began to climb.
With two shots, more than 20 pirates were killed.
But the remaining twenty or so pirates who had already climbed the rope nets could no longer be cleared by artillery fire.
After Cheng Kong killed a few pirates with a big bow, he evacuated the side of the ship, and the next thing was the battle between the spearmen and the farmers, and he only needed to stand behind to kill the particularly fierce pirates to avoid too many casualties.
Cheng Kong didn't expect dozens of pirates to be able to evolve himself.
Finally the first pirate emerged from the side of the ship, and suddenly an iron spear and four dung forks stabbed at him from different directions.
The pirate was fierce, and with his left hand on the side of the ship, his body flew in the direction of the four dung forks, while the scimitar in his right hand slashed at the iron spear, splashing a series of sparks.
In the blink of an eye, the pirate's body landed on the deck, and the price paid was to be stabbed into the body by four dung forks.
But that was his limit, and as another iron spear stabbed him, the pirate collapsed on deck, repeatedly impaled by the dung fork that followed him. (To be continued......)
