Chapter 538: Gang Jumping
Chapter 538: Gang Jumping (Page 1/1)
The galleys that passed by Zheng Zhihu were instantly shrouded in gunsmoke, and the screams came and went. The pirates who were originally standing full of people who were planning to jump into the gang were immediately blown up.
The pirates were not armoured, they were only wearing thin clothes. The grenade was on the deck of the pirate ship and exerted its maximum power.
The pirates who were about to jump into the gang fell, and some of the pirates armed with bows and arrows also died. They were already unsteady when the two ships brushed each other, and they didn't know where the arrows they were shooting were.
When the explosion sounded, they were standing on a high place, and they were not as good as pirates with sharp blades, and many of them were swept into the sea by the waves of the explosion.
Zheng Zhihu pulled the prelude to the bloody battle in Red Bay with a ferocious attitude, showing his violent side to the pirates in just one encounter.
The Flying Fish Clipper following him did not show weakness, although it was not as fierce as Zheng Zhihu, but the artillery on both sides of the ship fired at the same time.
"Boom!" In the sound of cannons, three pirate ships were shot. One of them was hit by the early sun cannon and had already begun to sink. The other two pirate ships that were shot also suffered heavy casualties and screamed miserably.
Under the command of Zheng Zhihu, the Flying Fish Clipper took advantage of the pirates for the first time. Although they broke through the encirclement of the galleys, it was difficult for the lucky boats blocking the mouth of the bay to escape without moving.
The fleet had to turn the bow of the ship to engage the enemy again, and this time the pirates learned wisely. They didn't rush up in a swarm like they had just done. Instead, they scattered in the Red Bay, slowly closing in on the Exocet clipper.
Zheng Zhihu led the Flying Fish Clipper to intersperse back and forth among the many galleys, constantly firing artillery to attack the enemy ships.
Although the three Flying Fish clippers achieved some success, they were inevitably gradually separated by pirates and fell into a situation of fighting alone.
Zheng Zhihu held a knife in his right hand and a short gun in his left hand, and kept running on the deck. From time to time, his trademark loud voice rang out on the boat: "Pay attention to the left, that boat has crashed over, sink it ...... Lao Tzu." Lofty! You kid pay attention to the bow and arrows, go to the gun emplacement, and command the battle! ……”
A dozen claws ran out of a pirate ship passing by them, and two or three more hooked the side of the Exocet clipper.
Thanks to the efforts of the pirates, the distance between the two ships was suddenly shortened. Then the small mast of the other ship's boat suddenly fell down and landed on the Exocet clipper.
A dozen pirates on the mast jumped onto the Exocet clipper and shouted at the Changxing soldiers.
Zheng Zhihu was first shocked when he saw that the enemy was using the mast as a springboard, and then he roared: "The soldiers are with Lao Tzu, and the gunners will smash these miscellaneous pieces for Lao Tzu!" ”
After shouting, he was the first to catch up with the pirate who jumped over, and raised his left hand to be a gun. The oncoming pirate fell, the steel knife in his right hand raised high, and slashed at the enemy's body.
Although the pirate in front of him raised his knife to block, he was still cut down by Zheng Zhihu. His bravery made the soldiers of the Changxing Army more and more courageous, and the sound of fire and weapons colliding was intertwined.
At this moment, "Boom! A loud bang came from the Exocet clipper, and the excited pirates who were ready to jump into the gang suddenly collapsed in a pool of blood.
The entire deck of the galleys was empty, and blood immediately stained the deck of the pirate ship. Those pirates who had already jumped the gang to fight with the Changxing Army could hardly believe their eyes, and dozens of brothers were gone like this? What kind of magic did the enemy use?
Zheng Zhihu let out a roar: "The Chuyang artillery team did a good job!" If you don't die this time, Lao Tzu invites you to have a good drink! ”
Hundreds of shotguns fired from the early sun cannon bombarded the pirates at close range. Immediately, the pirates were beaten to pieces, and the lead bullets pierced the bodies of several people in succession under the firing of the cannonballs.
Under the blows of this metal storm, few people survived. The cannon alone stunned the pirates, and the Changxing soldiers quickly slashed the jumping enemy, cutting off the flying claws and breaking away from the enemy ship.
Zheng Zhihu's movements were fast enough, and the power of the Chuyang Cannon almost killed all the pirate jumpers. Several other galleys that wanted to come up and pick up cheap ones pounced into the air, but did not block Zheng Zhihu.
Liu Xiang, who was watching the battle on the Fu boat, smashed the wine jug in his hand, and at the moment of successful gang jumping, he was celebrating the victory.
As long as that ship can hold the ghost ship in tow, there will be countless pirate ships coming up. At that time, it will be a heap of people, and this group of enemies will be piled up.
But who would have thought that the enemy would just bombard the people of the jumping gang with a single shot, and the entire jumping gang would end before half a cup of tea.
Seeing the ghost ship successfully escape and continue to wreak havoc on his subordinates, Liu Xiang roared angrily: "Use artillery, rockets, and fire bricks to burn them for me!" ”
From the moment Zheng Zhihu entered the Red Bay, Liu Xiang had already locked the victory. He wanted to capture the ghost ship intact, so that he could have such a fleet that came and went without a trace.
Therefore, at the beginning of the battle, it was mainly a white-knuckle battle with a jumping gang, and many of the means of naval warfare were useless, just for fear of damaging the Flying Fish Clipper.
This battle had been fought for almost an hour, and not only did he not take the enemy, but he also lost more than a dozen ships.
Liu Xiang couldn't sit still, and now the sun had appeared in the west. The bloody battle in the Red Bay against the dim light was even more tragic, and it would be dark if it dragged on any longer.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, he also did not care about capturing the enemy ship intact. As long as he can take out the enemy, even if he gets a few completely burned enemy ships, he can get the ghost ship out.
As he gave his order, the pirates began firing rockets at close range to burn the sails of the Exocet clipper. When the two ships staggered and passed, they were no longer passively beaten, but threw fire bricks at them.
The pressure on Zheng Zhihu's three Flying Fish clippers suddenly increased, and they had to keep dodging and trying not to let the enemy ships get close.
At the enemy's range is only to deal with the enemy with artillery, but the Red Bay is not a wide sea. There are many pirates, and there are always a few that can be relied upon.
Suddenly, a rocket hit the auxiliary sail, and in an instant, a large hole was burned in the auxiliary sail. The Flying Fish Clipper, which could have been able to get rid of it with its speed, suddenly slowed down a lot.
At the moment when the pirates approached, the Exocet Clipper fired continuously, sinking the pirate ships that wanted to come up.
Zheng Zhihu looked back and saw that they were less than a mile away. Two pirate ship masts have been set on the deck of the Exocet clipper, and a steady stream of pirates have rushed onto the Exocet clipper and fought fiercely with the sailors on it. More pirates approached like bloody sharks, and they rushed towards the already slow-moving Exocet clipper.
Zheng Zhihu's eyes suddenly turned red, and if this continues, the Flying Fish Clipper will have to be overwhelmed by the pirates.
"Turn around! Rush over! Zheng Zhihu gave the order and took the helm in person and rushed to the trapped Exocet clipper.
