Chapter 319: Fighting Pirates

Mei Qianzhi has been mixed at sea in the end, and he fully understands the extraordinaryness of this ship that is like a miracle, if he can bring it back to Rome, it may even be possible to rewrite the situation in the Mediterranean Sea at once, but he is still a little sensible, knowing that forcing it is death, just to exert some influence, although it has only been a few days, but he already has enough understanding of the people on the ship, they are mainly divided into three parts, from the sailors under the disciple Nicholas, it seems that they can be trusted, some literati from the north, well, Mei Qian was brought in Guangdong, as long as it was north of Guangdong, it was regarded as a northern Chinese, and there was an army under this person.

Due to the short time and heavy tasks, Mei Qianzhi can only think about it briefly with the help of the president, the government from the north is willing to visit Europe, it is simply a beautiful thing that can never be dreamed of, if these priests can lead the diplomacy with China, it is simply the biggest dream, countless wealth and glory will belong to him, if these self-proclaimed elders can be allowed to prostrate at the feet of the Jesuits, what a great glory it is.

According to John Tang's letter, Mei Qianzhi was originally full of confidence in his purpose, and with his eloquence, he could naturally take it, but he had already looked at the magical machines in the engine room and was planning to open some rooms by accommodating these Iberian parishioners.

However, they were all arrested roughly, and in front of those bright bayonets, it was useless to show any authority, Mei Qianzhi lost face, but he could only itch to look at these Portuguese compatriots covered in seawater, showing a comforting smile, and saying comforting words.

Although it looked modest, it was also well equipped, with water and biscuits to eat, and a few moments later, a few soldiers brought in a box of changed camouflage uniforms for the people who were soaked in moisture.

At sea, it's normal to get wet and greasy every day, but the guards are very dry in their camouflage uniforms, and they carry many bottles, constantly spraying some kind of smelly medicine indoors.

Mei Qianzhi only felt choked, and immediately said: "What is this, do you want to kill us." ”

"Foreign devils, what do you know, this is a good thing that the elder personally ordered to procure, and treat your illness!"

Those soldiers put away their things, they had long been accustomed to the smell of all kinds of anti-poisons, and they were proud of it, this was a sacred object that only the closest people to the elders could get! It can cure all diseases!

After doing a good job of these, a few people did not leave, but put on a good posture and monitored these people, they didn't need to mobilize, they could be full of energy, not to mention that Xu Hao also spoke, promising to wait until he took the pirate ship, he would give a share to these soldiers, even those who maintained order on the ship, and said seriously, the foreign devils on this ship don't know who they are, who knows if they will secretly stab the masters, and ask him to take a good look!

Originally, although there were many promises to "lift dry" after returning, these responsible northern soldiers also muttered about leaving their hometowns to go to the places of foreigners, but since the elders are willing to make a fortune together, it is naturally a thousand good, although the big head still has to be handed over to the treasury, but this big ship also costs money to raise every day, at least, according to what the elders said, the soldiers take more than those sailors.

Xu Hao saw an old man with injuries on his body and was not young, so he suddenly remembered that it was time to be careful about epidemic prevention, and the people on the boat had gone through a round of purification, in fact, they just took some medicine, and by the way, they just bubbled in the pool with the potion, but these two missionaries, and others have not.

It was an oversight, but it could be replenished soon, and the medicine he had brought with him was definitely sufficient, but his concerns were not limited to this.

This is the first time he has fought this kind of naval battle, although he has seen any Caribbean pirates, sneak attacks on Pearl Harbor or something, and he is no stranger to it, but it is difficult to coordinate this dismal team of small soldiers and how to attack the pirate ships here.

Fortunately, they have the advantage of firepower and firing range, after adjusting to the upwind position, Xu Hao opened the anti-materiel rifle in the captain's room, the range of this gun is enough to hit the pirate ship, although the people on the ship are still carrying and looting, but they have noticed this strange ship with bad intentions in the distance, someone is pointing at it, originally, Xu Hao also thought about shouting with these pirates, the more rivers and lakes the better, the more on the road, the better, but then I thought about it, this is too boring.

No matter how I say it, I also beat a person from Liaodong, who is much more ruthless than those European lords, so playing pirate games again is not interesting, but naΓ―ve.

He muttered to himself, "It seems like I'm going to leave a ship behind." ”

The next moment, on a pirate ship, there were countless "crackling" sounds, and at the same time, someone raised their heads, but the mast was collapsing, and they eagerly gave up the box they were carrying, but they avoided this blow and did not hit it.

"Come on, save people."

Some people were hit, some were covered by the sails, and since there was no sound of the cannon, it must have been some unlucky guy who had rammed some god, and the people who ran the boats were always superstitious everywhere.

After a few more skinning sounds, a small cannon on the ship suddenly jumped and was hit by this huge force, and seemed to be flattened.

"Enemy attack!" Although I don't know what happened yet, the people on the ship are in chaos, and the guy who suddenly rushed to the deck and played with a powder keg to blow himself up has greatly shocked everyone, and this is even more true at this time.

Xu Hao relied on the telescope and named the two ordinary pirate ships one by one, first abolishing the mast, and then the small cannons.

Pirates, basically, lack of subsidies, lack of logistics, a few cannons are already the limit, even in this era, the navy of the British Empire is actually the product of a group of former pirates who were whitewashed and knighted by the queen.

After firing continuously from the flanks, firing one by one, and abolishing the pirate ship's sailing ability, Xu Hao shouted: "Forward, shoot, shout." ”

Only then did he remember that the guy on the other side didn't seem to understand his shout, so he remembered the appearance of the Mei Qiangen, and quickly ran to the activity room and brought it to the deck, at this time the steamer started slowly, and it was already a few hundred meters away, enough for the Mauser rifle of the guard company to wield.

There are also lifeboats on the pirate ship, but unfortunately whoever wants to put down the ship will be hit directly, although there is only one ship, but it is firmly on the side of the coast, there is no way to escape, and soon, the deck of the pirate ship is empty, and there are many casualties.

Xu Hao became proud, such an advanced crushing can no longer be said to be a battle, this is a beating son.

He handed Mei Qian a loudspeaker and said, "Shout, let them surrender, otherwise, hum." ”

However, Xu Hao suddenly thought that he seemed to have forgotten something, and he didn't seem to bring tear gas and other detonating weapons on this trip, that is to say, unless the pirate ship was directly dismantled, then for these pirates hiding in the cabin, I am afraid that there will be no help.

There's still a way, unless you put on a spacesuit and rely on that protection to clear the field one by one, but it doesn't seem to be very powerful.

However, it is still necessary to do this first, he looked at Mei Qianzi, trembling and began to shout, as if he was persuading to surrender, he didn't care, surrounded by a bullet-loaded guard company, hurriedly returned to his room, put on a spacesuit, the protection of this thing is basically enough, after preparing the weapon, the only target that needs to be faced is the enemy.

When he went back to the deck, basically the two pirate ships had stopped resisting, in fact, there was no one running around on the deck, it was estimated that they all ran into the cabin, Xu Hao gritted his teeth, even if he was wearing a spacesuit, it seemed to be very dangerous.

Suddenly thought of something, pointed at Mei Qian, and said: "Shout, if you don't surrender, you will directly set fire to their ship and burn their ship!"

Mei Qianzhi was very anxious at this time, raised her head and said, "But, my lord, there are still innocent people who have been robbed on the ship." ”

Mei Qianzhi just chatted with the rescued people, and found that their identities were not simple, they were still religious members, so they naturally maintained them in every possible way.

Xu Hao laughed and said: "Be calm, have love, this is all your one, the test for them, yes, that's right, they killed people and set fires, it was their will, and they were killed today, isn't it also their will." ”

Mei Qianzhi was speechless for a while, she didn't expect Xu Hao to point out these things so accurately, and looked at them blankly.

Xu Hao was actually discouraged at this time, the reason is very simple, because it is too advanced, or there is no preparation, there seems to be no convenient means of setting fire on the ship, but there is some spare alcohol, but how to throw this thing on the enemy's ship is also difficult.

The disadvantage of being too advanced is this, Xu Hao scratched his head, it seemed difficult, and suddenly thought of what he had just observed, so he shouted: "They only have 15 minutes to think about it, and once the time passes, we will hit the gunpowder on their ship with bullets, and they will all die by then!" Don't think you're safe by hiding in a corner. ”

Due to the height, the beam of the condescending Liaoning is very good, even if you want to hide on the other side of the ship, you can actually hit them, Mei Qianzhi obediently continued to shout, and the guards were shooting coolly, and they were being ordered to scatter the shots.

Xu Hao is indeed a little embarrassed, on the one hand, he is reluctant to give up the spoils on the ship, this time the investment in the activities to Europe is huge, and he is still counting on making a profit, and secondly, he doesn't want to enter the enemy's cabin in that unknown environment, in case the person who was robbed of the ship just now played the trick of self-explosion and was imitated, then he would be miserable.

The injury is not terrible, the spacesuit will protect his life, but if it is blown back, if it is to be healed, it will fall ...... In Zhong Jiajia's hand.

It's much more terrible than the injury itself.

Xu Hao was extremely frightened of this, but there was nothing he could do to solve it, it seemed that he had to be forced.

He looked at a cabin, where his eyes peeked out from time to time, apparently unwilling and frightened, and walked back, and fired his rifle again, and this time, the bullets hit the wooden door, the cabin, and the rolling bullet was not a piercing damage as we imagined, but a myriad of leaping bullets.

It was as if blood flowers could be seen, and there were wailing sounds, this time after waiting for a while, a few people appeared, of course, they still didn't dare to come forward, but raised a white flag, which naturally meant surrender.

Coincidentally, this white flag is a sign of surrender by the losing side in both the East and the West, and even the years of its appearance are almost the same, which can be regarded as a world of different paths, but it seems that these people are still cautious.

Xu Hao thought about it, we have done this.

approached, ordered everyone to come out, discarded their weapons into the sea, and all the personnel squatted on the deck, not allowed to move, and then the guard company was divided into three teams, 10 people used to occupy a pirate ship, and 10 people were left to guard the Liaoning.

The sailors who work are also Zheng Zhilong's old men, and they must have done this kind of thing of stealing chickens and dogs, although some people are not satisfied that they can't take the big head, but when they work for Zheng Yiguan, it seems that the big head also belongs to Zheng Yiguan, but these soldiers of the imperial court, they eat well and dress well, and even the guys in their hands are very bright, especially the ones who walk with a board and a look are particularly stylish.

Everyone was quick with their hands and feet, first tied up the pirates one by one, and then happily began to carry their belongings, but before leaving, the Elders could not imagine that there were also pirates in such a place who were eaten black by Xu Hao, oh no, it was white and black, so there was no equipment that was convenient to carry.

Of course, this was made easy by Zheng Zhilong's men, who had special ropes on the pirate ship that could connect the two ships and transport the goods.

This is also very normal, without this, how can you let the pirates rob it.

However, the height of the Liaoning is also a problem, and after thinking for a long time, I can only abandon the robbed ship that has lost its use value, as well as one of the most seriously destroyed pirate ships, and move all the goods and pirates to a pirate ship that is well preserved, and then tie the ship's cable to the Liaoning and drag the ship forward.

Of course, for the sake of Liwei, Xu Hao proudly called everyone out, used a rifle, and directly tortured the pirate ship that was broken mast to death.

At this time, it happened to be a busy day, and the sunset was set off by two sunken wooden ships.

At night, except for the soldiers of the guard company, everyone was driven into the cabin, the windows were closed, and no peeps were allowed, and Xu Hao raised his head, looked at Zhang Liang who came in a hurry, and said proudly: "You still know how to come, and what do you say that you need to come and save me immediately, rely on you, I would have died a long time ago, how about it, there are hundreds of pirates, and so many things to make a fortune, I feel that being a pirate is also very promising." ”
