Part 5 Pirate Legend 62, Show Ambition

In order to force the Kingdom of Osea to surrender, Sapelo decided to threaten the Shen merchant group, because he did not have the magic speedboat, and there were many inconveniences in communication, so he could only ask the governor's envoy to go back first, and the colonial authorities would come forward to seize the Chinese merchant group in Acapulco as soon as possible.

After collecting Oseia's prisoners of war, Zhu Hui decided to go to war on the Solomon Islands, with the full support of King Aureto and the queen's son; However, Han Xiaoyu believed that once he completely fell out with the colonial authorities in the New World, it would inevitably involve Shen Qi and others, so it was better to insist on the strategy of static braking, send a speedboat to Acapulco, and discuss countermeasures with Elder Moon Sky and Mendoza and others, Zhang Gou'er agreed with this suggestion.

With Oseia's current strength, defeating the Spanish Navy on the Solomon Islands should not be a big problem, Zhu Hui decided to make a desperate bet and defeat the Spanish Navy first, at this time, he didn't know that the commander of the "Paladin" Legion had been replaced by Sapello, who was even more cunning than Carlos.

In order to be able to win by surprise, the collected iron tools were re-smelted into pig iron sheets, made into a small round ball, filled with gunpowder, and fused, and after many tests, finally produced more than 30 "earth-shaking thunder", and at the same time, stepped up the manufacture of trebuchets and fire bows and crossbows; While sending a magical speedboat to maintain communication with Shen Qi, another speedboat is responsible for reconnoitring the enemy.

The reason why Jack formed an alliance with Zhu Hui was nothing more than to make a comeback with the help of Oseya's power, and now the opportunity has finally come, he is very active, striving to be the vanguard and taking the lead, Zhang Gou'er, Han Xiaoyu and others are not at ease with him after all, and even King Aureto does not recommend using him.

However, Zhu Hui overrode public opinion, appointed Jack as the vanguard officer, Fernando as the commando leader, dispatched two capital ships, to attack the Spanish naval ace - King Philip, leaving Zhang Gou'er to guard Oseia, Han Xiaoyu was in charge of logistics, accompanied by the shaman Emma, with the "Yellow River" as the Chinese army, led five warships to encircle and suppress the Spanish Navy.

As soon as the sky was bright, colorful flags flew in the square of the court of Oseia, horns sounded, all the soldiers were wrapped in red turbans, red ribbons were tied around their waists, and the war drums roared, accompanied by the general Zhu Hui, the king and the princess inspected the Osea army together, and sent the soldiers a magnificent wine, and when the time came, more than 3,000 soldiers under the leadership of Zhu Hui went to the wharf on the east coast.

Just as he was about to set out for the expedition, a magical speedboat returned from Acapulco, bringing shocking news, Sapelo had replaced Carlos, who was guilty of treason, and was still stationed in the Solomon Islands, the friendly Father Mendoza was sent to other dioceses by the Augustinian Church, the new bishop issued an expulsion order to Shen Qi and others, Jianye Village had been surrounded by colonial troops, and more than 5,000 people in the Shen merchant group were facing a great threat.

Zhang Gou'er, Han Xiaoyu and others who came to see them off were all shocked when they heard the news, although Sapelo did not have any military talent, he was much more cunning than Carlos, and strongly persuaded Zhu Hui to stop the military operation and return to Acapulco immediately, and discuss countermeasures with Elder Yuekong and Shen Qi and others.

Zhu Hui believed that only by eliminating the "Paladin" legion and capturing the noble-born Sapelo alive could he force the colonial authorities to stop the persecution, so he began to adjust his strategy and fight as quickly as possible.

In view of the urgency of the current situation, at the same time as the expedition, send two magical speedboats to dispatch at the same time, more than 20 Osea soldiers formed a death squad, and sank the two capital ships of the Spanish Navy with earth-shattering thunder, which can annihilate the remaining warships in one fell swoop, and the enemies who escaped must all be concentrated on the "Paladin" island, just surround this desert island and trap them all on the island.

The two magical speedboats each carried more than a dozen earth-shattering mines, which were responsible for attacking the "King Philip" and "Queen Mariana" respectively, and at dusk, they arrived near the Solomon Islands, preparing to wait for dark to launch an attack on the target.

After Carlos's death, Sapello, fearing that the army would be unstable and sent off the governor's envoy, was busy reassuring the people and giving the mobilization order, at this time, they were just preparing for an expedition to Oseia.

More than a dozen imperial warships are ready to go, and Sapelo knows that those two magical speedboats are in Zhu Hui's hands, and he will definitely keep in touch with the Acapulco side, and at the same time as conquering Oseia, let the colonial navy attack the Chinese merchant group, and will definitely be able to force Osea to surrender.

Late that night, Sappello was fooling around with several women, and suddenly heard several loud noises, which frightened him so much that he didn't even wear clothes, and hurriedly ran out of the cabin to ask, at this time, the "King Philip" was already in chaos, everyone began to get busy, and the "Queen Mariana" was in flames, and it seemed to be sinking......

Since the reconnaissance speedboat did not find the enemy, Sapelo mistakenly thought that it was the naval negligence on the "Queen Mariana", which caused the explosion of the powder magazine......

The Osea death squad successfully sank the "Queen Mariana", and the daredevils on the "King Philip" had just detonated a sky-shattering thunder, but failed to blow up the bottom plate, and were discovered by the navy on duty.

This kind of sneak attack was unguardable, and when Sapelo learned of this, he immediately issued a combat order, and all the officers and men of the navy took action, and hundreds of patrol boats sailed into the sea, hoping to capture the two magical speedboats.

At this moment, there was only one person on the two magical speedboats, stopping in the water not far away and waiting for answers, and suddenly found that the enemy troops were pouring into the nest, and they were ready to evacuate urgently......

Someone reported the situation to Sappello, and he did not hesitate to make a decision, ordering several nearby warships to open fire at once, preferring to destroy the two magical speedboats rather than let them come and attack again.

Shortly after the two magical speedboats were activated, a cannonball landed in the water directly in front of them, and suddenly set off a huge wave, which swept all the people inside into the sea, causing the speedboats to lose control and circle aimlessly over the sea......

Unbeknownst to him, Sapello ordered all the warships to open fire on them, and their own patrol boats were all destroyed by the fire of their own men, while the miraculous speedboat, made of unknown materials, rampage through the sea, until the artillery fire overturned it, and the bottom turned upwards and continued to suffer heavy artillery fire, and finally smashed it to pieces......

After more than an hour of encirclement, Sapelo sent people to the sea to retrieve the wreckage of the miraculous speedboat, which unfortunately all the parts of the miraculous speedboat had sunk into the sea.

Still, Sappello was glad that he had not been able to obtain them, but that the enemy had lost two of the most terrible artifacts, and that he still had the magical crystal ball in his hand, and that Father Mendner's ring, which was now on his hand, would give him an inexplicable urge from time to time: he must capture Oseia, capture the crystal bracelet and Solomon's ring, and then find the Golden Ark and Solomon's treasure, and then do something, which he didn't seem to have in mind at the moment......

The attack on the magical speedboat forced Sapelo to regroup, and at this time, Jack and Fernando, under the supervision of the Ming soldiers, each led a battleship to report the vanguard, and had come to the vicinity of the "Paladin Island......

The five warships with the "Yellow River" as the Chinese army followed, and Zhu Hui held the telescope in his hand to see through it, and after three days, the two magical speedboats were not heard from, which made him frown......

The battleship commanded by Jack was the first to confront the enemy and was besieged by several Spanish naval warships, and not far from him, the battleship commanded by Fernando was so angry that Jack scolded loudly on the deck......

In fact, Fernando is quite experienced, he can see that Jack should be able to deal with those few warships, only the heavy artillery on the "King Philip" is a mortal threat, the main fleet is about to arrive, at that time, only need to lead the "King Philip" by himself, not only to relieve Jack, but also to make the enemy's capital ship into an encirclement.

Jack's battleship lacked firepower and was chased by enemy ships, at this time, Oseia's main fleet appeared, seeing this, Fernando immediately gave an order, and the sailors accelerated to attack the "King Philip", attracting the inexperienced Sapello to be fooled.

Just when the "King Philip" and Fernando's battleships faced each other, the main fleet of Osea launched a fierce offensive, and the battleships besieging Jack had to return to defense.

Half an hour later, the main fleet of Oseia had sunk three Spanish warships, and the remaining warships were all on fire, and the Spanish navy jumped into the sea and swam towards the island of Holy Knights......

The battleships commanded by Jack also turned to the offensive, and the seven Oseia battleships surrounded the "King Philip", and Sapelo was frightened and ordered the cannons to cease fire, and everyone gathered on the deck, hoisted the white flag and surrendered en masse.

Due to the loss of a heavyweight main battleship by the enemy, coupled with Zhu Hui's proper use of personnel and good command, the battle was won without suspense, and Zhu Hui sent people to take all the prisoners of war to the "Paladin Island", only to learn that Carlos was dead, and the enemy's commander turned out to be Sapello, and it was inevitable that he felt some regret in his heart.

Through the interrogation of the prisoners of war, it was learned that the two magical speedboats were all destroyed, which made Zhu Hui so angry that he grabbed Sapello by the collar, spat him first, and slapped him with his hand......

"Honorable son, please forgive me, I, I didn't mean to sink them, it's too dark, I, we didn't see clearly, we didn't know that there was no one inside."

"You stupid pig, die!" Zhu Hui was too lazy to talk nonsense with him anymore, and raised the steel knife to take his life, when he was suddenly grabbed by the arm and couldn't move......

"Childe, the artifact left by our ancestors is gone, and I am also very sad, please wait for a while, let this waste return the crystal ball to me, and it will not be too late for you to kill him again."

After listening to the words of the shaman Emma, Zhu Hui suddenly realized, and immediately sent someone to escort Sapelo to find the crystal ball, and met Jack head-on, he first teased the general of the defeated army, and took off the ring on his hand when he came up.

Seeing this, Zhu Hui regretted that he hadn't thought of this just now, and hurriedly ran over and said, "Jack, you should hand over this ring." ”

"No, my esteemed gatekeeper, not only do you already own the Ring of Solomon, but also the crystal bracelet that once revealed to me, unless you exchange one of these for it, you will kill me."

"Don't I dare kill you?" As he spoke, Zhu Hui immediately showed his steel knife......

Fernando hurriedly rushed over, hugged Zhu Hui, and persuaded: "Childe, if you want to kill even your allies, God will abandon you, please don't forget, you still have many, many enemies ......"
