With the paralysis of Brig's galleon, Lorraine grasped the rhythm of the battle for the first time.

He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, so when he saw the mainmast in the distance lodging, he immediately ordered the Golden Deer to turn the rudder and turn his side towards the target.

The twelve-pounder guns on the main deck, and the eighteen-pounder guns in the gun compartments, roared one after another, raining down cannonballs on enemy ships as if they were hitting fixed targets.

The gunners showed astonishing accuracy and proficiency.

In just three or four minutes, the gunwales fired three salvos, almost all of the shells fell within 100 meters of the enemy ship, and three shells hit directly.

A cannonball landed in the bow of the ship, penetrated through a gap in the hull, and tore off half of the bow, causing the flames to spread.

A cannonball landed on the main deck, tearing a large pit on the main deck, burning a large area of charred black, which looked hideous and terrifying.

Another one was falling at the thick angle where the main deck combined with the ship's ribs, and it was directly blown out, bringing down half of the side guardrails, making the whole ship look more and more desolate.

Lorraine pursed her lips and said nothing.

It was only a matter of time before the Brig-type was sunk.

And as the Brigg type fell into danger, not only did the Viper's attack become fierce, but even the Brigentine in the distance raised the sail at the first time and swooped in the direction of the battlefield.

The battle has reached an inflection point.

The Black Mamba Pirates have exhausted their cards, but the situation is in Lorraine's favor.

Amy. Philard had earlier thrown the wind-looking Brigentine downwind to the left of the main route. Against the wind, the ship's windiness is good, and it will take at least two hours to cross the distance of more than 20 kilometers to join the battle.

For two hours, Lorraine had to face only a fixed target that had lost its ability to evade, and the Viper, a slippery Bagg-type conversion ship.

Don't miss the opportunity!

He stretched out his hand and dragged a sailor, and ordered in a deep voice: "Tell Acharin to use only the minimum manpower to maintain the drive against the Viper, and his first priority is to sink the opposite Brig-type, the sooner the better!" ”

"Yes!"

"Mr. Drake!" Before the sailors could set out to give the order, Caterina, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke again.

Lorraine looked over curiously, "Does Ms. Dipo have any suggestions?" ”

"Yes!"

Katerina's suggestion was refreshing, and she actually offered to bombard the Brig without sinking, and at the same time relax the drive against the Viper, and give Amy. Philard's chance to take the broadside......

Lorraine's eyes brightened more and more as she listened: "What do you mean ......"

"From the Black Mamba's point of view, the Golden Deer is priceless, and he is reluctant to sink the Golden Deer. What's more, the overboard can stop your shelling and save Brig on the other side. So even if it was to take some risks, Philard had a high-sounding reason to convince the sailors. ”

"And from your point of view," Caterina ...... glaring at Lorraine with her pretty eyes, "you must admit that your ship will not be able to catch up with the Viper, and that there is no suitable means for Brigentine, who is about to enter the war. ”

"In the same way, you can't run away. Whether it's the agility of the boat or the familiarity with the sea, you're at a disadvantage. Once a chase is formed, the Viper's heavy bow guns will cost you and your crew dearly. ”

"Your only chance of winning is the broadside. Since you can't catch him, why not try to get him to take the initiative to catch you? ”

Caterina raised her hand and pointed to the Brig boat in the mist.

"You've got two hours, you've got ready-made bait, and you've got a lot of chips. The question is, would you be willing to put these murderous pirates on the deck of the Golden Deer? ”

"I hate trouble, but you've given me a troublesome idea I can't refuse......" Lorraine suddenly drew her knife and cut the rope off Caterina with a single hook, "Noah, give her back Lady Dibo's dagger and borrow her a bayone." When the deck is chaotic, no one can guarantee absolute safety. ”

……

The Golden Deer began a covert adjustment.

The first step in the adjustment was self-destruction, and at Lorraine's request, Acharin chose a hull with a gun door on the port side, and blasted it from the inside when the Viper opened fire, blowing up a rather bleak opening.

Thick smoke billowed from the opening, and the guns on both sides overturned crookedly, as if they had taken a solid shot, the sailors were killed and wounded, and the gun doors were dumb.

The snake hunt was launched.

Through the hatch connecting the gun bay to the stern compartment, half of the gunners were drawn out, a total of 60 people, including the entire musket team, and 20 brave sailors with good fighting skills, led by Wang Ye, Noya, and Katarina, the female knight of the two swords who temporarily joined the Golden Deer.

However, the Golden Deer's firepower did not weaken significantly.

The gunners on the main deck were drawn to the gun bay, on which only about 20 men were left in charge of handling the ship, and it looked as if the gun bay had suffered heavy losses after a direct attack and was in dire need of reinforcements.

Each squad was responsible for three guns, and in the face of the Brig's ten guns, half of the port and stern guns continued to fire, so that the density of the Golden Deer's fire plummeted, and the hit rate fell to an outrageous level.

Ten minutes later, four rounds of shelling, only one of the shots hit the Brig type, igniting the stern sail, and the shells towards the Viper flew aimlessly, and could no longer serve to drive away.

The Viper made a close approach by seizing the gap in the shelling, and a shotshot was sent onto the main deck of the Golden Deer, wounding two sailors and wailing to the earth.

Lorraine felt that this attempt should allow Amy. Philard made up his mind......

Twenty minutes later, two turns, Pierce shouted from the tip of the mast: "Bag-type assault!" There is no change of direction! Prepare for the broadboard! ”

"Fixed!" Lorraine jumped to the vicinity of the mainmast in a few steps, clutching the cable on the ground, "Lock the steering wheel, lower the sails, and prepare for battle!" ”

Rumble!

The hull shook violently, and the Viper went up from behind the Golden Deer, and slammed its side into the port side of the Golden Deer, sending debris and debris flying sideways in all directions, and the two large ships pressed against each other.

The sordid pirates gathered on the deck of the Viper, led by the same third mate Lorraine had seen in the town of Bahiba.

Under his command, hooks were thrown out and hooked the deck and sides of the Golden Deer.

The sailors of the Golden Deer gave up the ship and gathered behind Lorraine one by one, sparsely swords, nervously waiting for the battle.

The two big boats began to drift apart, propelled by the waves, and only drifted a little more than a meter away, they were caught by the dozens of hooks.

The heavy planks were erected, and a dozen pirates dragged the cables from the high booms, screaming and swinging through the gaps.

ten, twenty, until seventy or eighty......

The third mate of the Viper boarded the Golden Deer, looked at Lorraine and the sailors behind him, who numbered less than twenty, and sneered: "See you again, Mr. Captain of Baghiba, I wonder if your Miss Isabella is okay?" ”

"You'll see her soon." Lorraine licked her lips and raised her long knife high, "Musket, kill!" ”
