0325 Crocodile

Boom!

Guns rang out with flames through the rainforest, and birds that slept in the jungle were startled and hovered in the air listening to the annoying warning signs.

"Crocodile! Alligator! All personnel on board! The commander has an order, and everyone is engaged! ”

Scream, scream!

The frightened screams of the crew were constantly heard in the darkness, mixed with the churning of the river and a strange snoring sound, which made people wonder what was going on.

The soldiers on duty at night were the first to come to the broadside, and there were more than 40 people on nine ships, but none of them dared to shoot at the inner ring.

They couldn't guess the situation there at all, they only knew that the soldiers in red uniforms were densely packed in the small boats where the hedgehogs gathered, and there was no room for prostrate and dodge at all.

More and more people were coming out of the cabin, and a growing sense of powerlessness was coming out of Lorraine's heart.

"Damn...... Damn it! Freemani, give me the torches! ”

Freemani, who was loading ammunition in a panic, was stunned for a while: "Torches? My lord, on board? ”

"Rubbish!"

Lorraine pushed him away, jumped to the lower deck with his knife in his hand, and pulled a torch soaked in oil from the barrel on the side of the gunwale.

Wooden ships are afraid of fire, and if it were a normal voyage, this uncontrolled source of fire would certainly not appear on board.

But this was a special event, and since the atmosphere of the team was depressed again, Spencer, who was not bound by the Navy's habitual thinking, proposed to prepare torches and spare lighting on each ship.

This suggestion had also been refuted by Nelson and Lorraine, had Spencer not insisted......

Now it seems that fortunately he insisted!

Lorraine lit the torch with the wind lamp, and the sword in one hand and the torch in the other illuminated the limited water in front of him.

He saw a crocodile on its wandering.

Lorraine gritted her teeth, stepped back, ran away, leaped high in Freemanny's horrified eyes, stepped heavily on the head of the wandering crocodile, and then jumped again, straddled more than five meters apart, and fell to one knee on the bow of the hedgehog boat.

The whole ship shook violently in a scream.

Lorraine's actions provoked the crocodile, and a crocodile was attracted to it, and it raised its head and opened its mouth to bite Lorraine's back.

Thunderbolt!

The American crocodile, more than 3 meters long, with its strong triangular narrow snout with fangs wide open, pounced on Lorraine, and the heavy fishy wind stirred into the night, and under the reflection of the only light source in the inner circle, this scene clearly fell into everyone's eyes.

Lorraine moved.

The crooked body became stable the moment he stepped on the boat, and he twisted his waist with one foot as the axis, and the raised knife slammed into the crocodile's kiss, slashing the huge head out like a hammer.

"the boat! Where's the! ”

An immediate response came from the boat: "Captain, we're here!" ”

"Light the lights, whether it's torches or wind lanterns, light up everything that can be illuminated, and guide the ship to the target!"

He stood up, stomped on the slender side of the ship, chopped open a crocodile that was climbing the boat, and kicked down the frightened soldier with his foot.

"Let those landlubbers be honest again! Push the food and water off the boat and raise the freeboard! ”

He jumped from boat to boat with shouts, pounced like a god, burst the crocodile's eyeballs, and snatched a lobster that had been bitten on the leg from a giant kiss.

"Fight like a man!" He roared angrily, "Stab with a bayonet, smash with the butt of a gun!" You are warriors! Don't just scream like a piece of shit! ”

"Men should fight like men!"

On the other side of the ship's enclosure, a battle horn-like roar exploded. Leif jumped up from the Dahlia, with his shield on his back and his sword on his back, leaping like Lorraine with a torch held high, kicking on the crocodile's back and smashing into the dinghy, setting the food packets on fire and knocking several soldiers into the water with a thud.

The crocodile pounced on him, threw away the torch, took off the shield and slammed it into the crocodile's jaw, and from top to bottom, pierced the crocodile eye socket with a sword, and roiled its poor brain.

"As far as I know, Captain!" Leif laughed heroically, "England has only, no men!" ”

A crocodile boarded the boat in front of Lorraine, and he shook the crocodile's tail with a black face, and the boat shook violently, and the soldier fell into the water.

The boatman behind Lorraine bravely propped up the long pole and stabbed the crocodile back into the water with all his strength behind Lorraine.

Lorraine gasped and viciously shouted in Lef's direction, "Did you do it on purpose?" Leff, I'm English! ”

"Uh......" Leif raised his leg and kicked the crocodile in the side of the face, his eyes rolling three times, "Captain, only brave Viking warriors can step on this world...... Well?! ”

"What did you say?"

Lorraine scanned the battlefield suspiciously, and found that the chaotic battlefield had gradually stabilized.

The soldiers organized their limited defenses, and the boatmen risked their lives to light the lights.

There was a boat that was burning, and that was set on fire by Lef. Two boats were overturned by crocodiles, and the surrounding boats were doing their best to rescue the people who had fallen overboard.

There were about forty or fifty crocodiles around the dinghy, an incalculable number for a moment, their grey rough skins reflected in the firelight, uneven and sharply angled, as if the dinghy were on a rocky beach that had suddenly heaved.

Henna dances on the water.

She also jumped out of the big boat and ran on the cruising crocodile with a much lighter than Lorraine.

Before the crocodile, which had been used as a stepping stone, could react, she leaped high, rolled in the air a few times, threw a slender harpoon, and landed on the back of another crocodile.

The men on the skiff watched in amazement as the elf danced on the water, until Henna shook off the four harpoons she had collected for the moment, and then she landed on the bow of a dinghy, flicked the sling, and snapped into the eye socket of a crocodile.

Nelson gritted his teeth, "Oh my God, where did Drake find these monsters......"

He raised his hand, and his clear voice resounded across the water.

"All of them, target crocodile, raise your gun, fire!"

With the Dahlia as the center, half of the ship opened fire at Nelson's orders.

Gunshots rang out one after another, and lead bullets fell on the water reflected in the firelight, causing a splash and a red ripple.

The gunfire here was not over, and the orderly drum beat sounded on the cactus horn directly opposite Dahlia.

Spencer stood in the middle of the crowd and ordered: "Drum up, flag raised, gun raised!" Target crocodile, put! ”

Bang bang bang!

……

The crocodile retreated.

After a fierce battle for more than an hour, Nelson and Spencer commanded the line in the outer circle, and Lorraine, Leif and Henna led the soldiers in the inner circle to counterattack, paying the price of five skiffs, and finally drove the crazy crocodiles out of the ship.

The carcasses of more than a dozen American crocodiles float on the blood-stained water, accompanied by stumps and severed arms, inviting swarms of piranhas to party.

Billowing smoke filled the sky over the battlefield, obscuring the morning sun and blackening the sky.

That's because a total of three boats were set on fire, accounting for the majority of the damaged assault boats, and without exception, all of them were destroyed on torch-splashed sparks.

Lorraine was half-kneeling in the dinghy panting, beside the pale-faced Henna, and not far away was Leif with his hands and feet crossed.

The ship's encirclement was untied, and Bartow commanded the Azure Drops to approach and pick up the three Lorraine and the Drake handlers who had lost their boat.

Lorraine leaned on the side of the ship wearily: "What about the casualties?" ”

Bartow replied in a low voice: "The army is still counting, a total of 48 of us are trapped in the inner circle, 7 are missing, 4 are wounded, and 1 is dead. ”

Dead means to find the body, to be missing...... In this rainforest, it means that there are no corpses to be found.

Lorraine closed his eyes expressionlessly: "Let Freemani go and tell Spencer that I will focus on what is driving those crocodiles crazy, and hope that he has found the direction of his investigation." ”
