0305 Thunder in the West
Poof!
Another corpse was pushed out of the narrow gap in the shield and fell into the sea. The blood that flowed from the corpse seeped out of the corpse, staining the red sea even redder, and the beauty that had been as clear as a jewel could not be seen for a long time.
The sea was full of corpses, rippling and sinking with the waves.
They will soon sink, and most of them will fall into the belly of the fish, and a small part will wait for the bubble to swell and resurface, and then fall into the belly of the fish.
The belly of the fish is the destined destination of pirates.
Of course, there must have been a lot of people who were alive in the chaos like the one just now, and all of them were pirates, and the injured were not injured.
Those brave tried to scuttle the boat with the weapons in their hands, and the cowardly ones had lost their minds, screaming and swimming desperately towards the bay or in the bay.
Asaros had to admit that perhaps escape was the better way to go, but the brave became hostages, an obstacle to their own shelling.
What's more, their work is doomed to be in vain.
Drake the Boy prepared a large number of crossbows and harpoons, and seeing that Asaros had no intention of shelling for a short time, he sent three or five sailors to squeeze out the side of the ship, hang ropes, and play a game of shooting people at sea.
Asaros stared coldly at the figure hanging from the side of the ship with the executioners.
They were alive, some wounded and dying, some crying loudly, and Drake's crew tied their hands and feet and hung them on the side of the ship, not knowing whether it was for demonstration, blackmail, or simply to increase the thickness of the hull.
Asaros clenched the hilt of his knife tightly: "Rampant and clever boy...... You're trying to provoke me. ”
"Shelling, replacing shotshots." His mouth was sloppy and puffed up with cold wind.
The commander of the division of artillery stared at him in disbelief: "Deputy commander, scattered bullets can't smash the hull of the ship on the opposite side, they will only ......"
"They're dead!" Asaros gritted his teeth and glared at the Commander of the Division with a cannibalistic gaze, "If Drake kid doesn't kill them, he's provoking us." I want to let him know that the flag of Cottonjack is not to be provoked! ”
“…… It's ......"
Shotguns spilled out without warning, crackling and smashing on the port side and the gun shield.
The Three-Eyed Raven was completely defenseless against the blow, and the waterline cleaners, who had no time to recover it, were all wiped out, and five died at once.
But the waterline doesn't need to be cleaned anymore......
Lorraine closed her eyes and was expressionless: "Cut all the ropes that are hanging." And ask the lookout, where is the Golden Deer? ”
……
In the waters off Bimini Island, the Golden Deer and the Eros, the core of Drake's fleet, are under interim command Acharin. Desai marched under the command of the wind.
They had broken through the northwest corner of the North Island, and the Golden Deer had smashed the thin lookout post with a round of secondary cannons, and the rumbling of the cannon had reached the panicked haven before the battleship.
After all, it is a small island, and it is not a safe haven much bigger than Minny, and 1.3 kilometers to the west of the berth is a natural seawall that cannot be navigated by boats. The width of the sea varies from tens of meters to 100 meters, and then it is the deep open sea.
Therefore, most of the sea surface of the safe harbor is actually covered by the range of the naval guns......
No one had paid attention to this issue before, because Cotton Jack's lair had never been the target of other forces, but today, with the sound of cannons coming from the northwest, a smart enough merchant suddenly came to his senses.
Badigya. Nicknamed by the pirates, he was the most powerful stolen merchant around Cotton Jack VII, and he had three boats, a Bag, a Brigentine, and a Skuna.
With a black face, he found the person in charge of the docks, who was also the star officer of Bimini today, the captain of the Irian, the lame Romy.
"Captain Romy, untie the barricade of the No. 1 plank road at once, and my ship will be on the berth waiting for navigation. And also! The rest of my ships will also go into the berths and drive those broken boats out to sea! ”
Lame Romi looked at his old friend in embarrassment.
"Old friend, you know that the No. 1 plank road is a special berth in the regiment, except for Bloody Mary and Holy Anne......"
"They're not here now, are they! Holy Anne is working with Asaros to clear the waterways, and Bloody Mary is following your captain in the Caribbean, dealing with an obscure merchant! ”
"But rules are rules......
"Don't tell me the rules! All I know is that I have written off fifty percent of the stolen goods of the Cotton Jack Pirates, and I deserve the privilege! ”
"Alright, okay, old friend." The lame Romy was defeated by Zouanka's aggressive gaze, raising his hands with an innocent face, "I'm going to make people ......"
"Oh God! Destroyer! Two ships! ”
A frightened scream erupted from the crowd, and at the end of the sea and the sky, two slender battleships cleaved in waves, and the bow heavy guns fired a salvo, and even without hitting the target, the waves set off by the cannonballs had already broken the watchtower on the sandbar, leaving only Cottonjack's pirate flag floating in the sea, stimulating people's eyes.
Juanka jerked off her large emerald ring and shoved it into the lame Romy's hand.
"Romy, open the berth now! I don't care who wins or loses today, you filthy pirates, as long as my property is undamaged, you have to help me! ”
On the Golden Deer, Yacharin adjusted the three-cornered hat on his head for the first time, and said to Orvis seven or eight meters away from the side.
"Captain Orvis, near and possibly close to the sandbar, artillery elevation eight degrees, a minute and a half a round of rounds, itinerant firing. Your task is not to sink many future chamber of commerce property, but to intimidate, so don't be too prevalent in precision, neither I nor the Admiral will like it. ”
Olvis snapped and stood upright: "Yes, Commander of Artillery!" ”
Acharin frowned dissatisfiedly: "If you want to call me Admiral, omit the word temporary, and call me Admiral, or Admiral Desai." ”
"Uh...... Be! Artillery ...... No, mention...... Raise...... Mention ......"
"Forget it!" Yacharin glanced at the old subordinate he brought out with his own hand, "I think you lacked eyesight and your skin was not thick enough when you were in the Butterfly Flower. Who knew that even if he was a high-level member of the Chamber of Commerce, he would still be so eyeless! ”
He turned around and shook Lorraine's captain's robe, and said, "Golden Deer, shell all the way, keep moving!" ”
The Golden Deer and the Eros, which were walking side by side, turned around at the same time, one to the left, straight north along the sandbar, and the other to the right, and rushed south against the seawall.
The side gun doors facing the shelter were opened at the same time, and they were in exactly the same configuration, with 10 18-pounder guns on the lower deck and 6 12-pounder guns on the upper deck, with the muzzles raised and pointed into the distance.
The order to launch was faintly heard in the wind, and the cannon sounded!
Boom Boom! Boom Boom!
The solid projectile flew high into the sky, drew a thrilling arc, spanned a distance of nearly a kilometer, and slammed into the center of the sheltered bay.
There was a small ship that was unlucky enough to stay in the shelling area, and watched the huge projectile fall and smash into the bow with a bang, smashing half of the ship to pieces!
Rumble!
The water splashed and the waves swelled for several meters.
Lame Romy and Zunka said in unison as they looked at the wreck that had taken to the sky with their mouths open.
Harry...... Lua. ”
