Section 684 Who is the prey (2)

"They're reducing the sail pressure, hit that bastard next to the mainsail cordyard, hit me!" Kaohsiung No. 78 ship flew the Sea Eagle flag pirate ship, Captain Yan Chang instructed the marines.

A few shots were fired, and the bastard scrambled to dodge and didn't hit him.

Similarly, Yan Zhang also became the target of the other party's attack, the two sides of the artillery back and forth, a 12-pound cannonball penetrated the auxiliary sail sail blade on the starboard side of the No. 78 ship, pierced through two holes in a row, and flew over from about a meter above his head, Yan Zhang's eyes were sharp, he could feel the shadow of the cannonball flying past, and even felt the evil wind above his head, he couldn't help but shrink his neck!

"Don't let the sails go against the wind, lower the auxiliary sails!" He looked at the positions of the ships on both sides and shouted, "Deflect downwind, deflect the bow of the ship downwind!" ”

His action was to make the ship parallel to the pirate ship, and when the bow turned, he ordered the open-deck guns to prepare: "The port gun captain supervises the ......", and then someone reported: "The captain has been killed, change the captain!" ”

"Holy!" The news annoyed him, and he saw the port gun captain lying in a pool of blood, blood all over his neck.

The armor and armor of the Southeast Army is a four-piece set, including helmets, neck guards, armored vests and armor pants, of which helmets and vests are mandatory, and it is a violation of military discipline not to equip them, and neck guards and iron pants are selected, which can be installed or not, because the neck guards are installed to make the head turn ineffectively, everyone calls it an iron neck, and the same is true for armor pants and pants, so the soldiers do not like to use them very much, including Yan Zhang, who is not equipped.

The gun captain's neck was fatally wounded, and he was unlucky.

Yan Zhang immediately changed the captain of the artillery team, and when the new captain on the open deck was organizing the men and horses to open fire, the cannons on the gun deck were firing happily, and the pirate ships were shot one after another.

Yan Zhang stood behind a 6-pounder gun, looking forward along the front sight of the gun, his eyes touched the open deck of the pirate ship, and he sneered: "Take a look! When he felt the ship being lifted upward by the force of the waves, he quickly moved to the side and lit the fire, and with a sizzling sound, the shells erupted with shotguns, and the hull and gun carriage made a screeching sound due to the recoil.

"Good, good fight!" The people cheered, and the shotgun was hard enough to knock down a crowd, and almost no one on the other deck came up, and they all shrank up.

"Keep fighting!" Yan Zhang stopped after a shot, he used a telescope to look at the enemy ship, because the boat was shaking, it was difficult for him to keep his balance, the sun was fierce, he put his hand on the other end of the mirror to block the sunlight to observe, he saw that the three guys with red turbans on the stern gun on the other side of the ship were busy firing the cannon, a little active, so he landed the soldiers to focus on taking care of them.

After a burst of gunshots, one of the three guys fell, and the other two shrank their heads.

However, the other party also used the color, a burst of guns came indiscriminately, and the wood crackled as if it was on fire, Yan Zhang heard a sailor's unbearable curses one after another, "Wang Shrimp was unlucky, and someone whispered very close behind him: "The gun hit him between his legs, and he didn't know what it was like!" ”

This is a serious problem, which is the disadvantage of not wearing armor pants, but wearing them affects walking around, and it is also very panicked.

All in all, the helmets and armored vests in the southeastern province were still very effective, and although there were injuries, fatal injuries were rare.

The ship's cannon was constantly ringing, Yan Zhang estimated that many cannons were almost close to one shell a minute, and the other party was overwhelmed!

The gunpowder purchased before was not in vain, and the southeastern army that had been trained hard was something that the pirates could fight, after all, using gunpowder to fight artillery was turning silver into smoke, except for the regular army, ordinary people would not be willing to give it,

The smoke of gunpowder was filled, and Yan Zhang made a judgment that the pirate ship with the Sea Eagle flag had increased the wind pressure on the sails, so that the sail leaves were full of wind and enough wind power, so that the pirate ship ran in front of the Kaohsiung No. 78 ship and became downwind, and the idea of hitting was nothing more than a chain bomb, so that it could break the mast of the Chinese warship, so that it would lose the help of the wind, and let the waves make it bump and shake and unable to move forward.

Whatever it is, "Full fire!" Yan Zhang shouted, and the battleship pressed towards the pirate ship.

He went down to the gun deck compartment and, seeing that the cannon was ready, ordered: "Starboard gun salvo, ready, hit!" Sergeant Zhao, let the brothers with muskets get ready, and when our ship is parallel to them, aim at them, aim directly below, and shoot when you hear the order. ”

Yan Zhang returned to the open-air deck and said to the sailors: "Operate the sail line, the left full rudder!" ”

He stood behind a bronze 6-pounder cannon on the starboard side, half-bent over, holding his breath, all his energy focused on the brass cannon and the turning seascape, his ship kept turning, and all the oars of the pirate ship were desperately rowing, stirring up the sea with bursts of white foam, but it was too late, when the seventy-eighth ship was about to be parallel to the pirate ship by a tenth of the time, and the ship swung down to its lowest point, "This is now!" ”

With a command from the captain: "Fight!" "The cruiser's broadside guns fired a salvo cleanly, and the fourteen guns fired a colorful firework, and all the muskets opened fire at the same time, and when the smoke cleared, the Chinese cheered, for they saw that the pirate ship's hull had been punched out of a big hole, and then the guns went over, and the pirates above panicked and became a mess, and those who could not hide were lowered.

Sure enough, it is natural for a soldier to catch a thief, and it is indeed difficult for a thief to beat a soldier, and the pirates on the two ships regret it together.

Equally remorseful to them was Hao Sizhong, the captain of the Yaksha XII, who was scolding in his heart, "Supply ships are not fun at all!" ”

The firepower is too weak, the other party is chasing him to fight, and he can't run away, he can only circle around the Kaohsiung No. 78 ship, hoping to get the fire cover of the friendly ship, but the shark flag pirate ship oars and sails are used together, even if the circle is larger than the supply ship, it can be covered by the hull of the supply ship, so that the gunfire of the Kaohsiung No. 78 ship can't hit it!

And its guns unceremoniously poured on the hull of the supply ship, causing the supply ship to shake, being hit by the cannons, and sawdust sprayed out and exploded all over the sky!

Yan Zhang, who was next to him, saw that he was anxious, and abandoned the pirate ship that was beating him to fight the shark flag pirate ship, but what he didn't expect was that the pirate ship was slippery like a fish swimming in the water, and actually borrowed the Yaksha Twelve ship as a cover, and Yan Zhang's Yaksha Twelve ship was separated from the Yaksha Twelfth ship, Yan Zhang's ship was slow, and he couldn't chase the other party!

"It's better to cut off one of its fingers than to hurt its ten fingers!" Yan Zhang was ruthless, no longer paid attention to the supply ship, and concentrated on hitting the pirate ship of the Sea Eagle Flag, and pressed it to fight!

On the other side, Hong Xuguan was also in the same idea, beating the pirate ship with the bull head flag.

Well, the pirate ships of the Shark Flag also fight according to the supply ships...... The pirates fired chain bullets, although Hao Sizhong had lowered most of the sails, the chain bombs cut the cables, making the mast bare like something, and the pirate ship made the supply ship unable to eat the wind and be unable to move, so they switched to solid bullets, and the bullets hit the flesh!

Hao Sizhong cursed frantically in his heart, and made up his mind that he must be the captain of the battleship after returning from this trip!

The battleship has a lot of firepower, and it is a lever to hit others!

It's not a big deal, Hao Sizhong is not too old, but he is very old, he has been the captain of a cruiser and a supply ship, and he was a staff officer of the fleet in charge of fleet operations before, and if he is put on a battleship, as long as there is one, it will be his turn to be the captain, provided that he has to go back alive!

"What's worse than a supply ship being hit by a gunboat is that the supply ship is hit by two gunboats!" Hao Sizhong accepted his fate, and the damn pirate brig caught up!

Without saying a word, the brig joined the ranks of the pincer supply ships, and the shells flew one after another, but Hao Sizhong was miserable as a shrinking turtle!
