Chapter 264: Impact

A few guards rushing in the direction of Myeong'an Cave had not yet arrived at the place, and only the few Huya ships equipped with three-man guns were ready with fire and oil bombs in this weather. And in this weather, in the harbor that has been densely crowded with many ships, it is not easy for the Huya ships to set sail to patrol the harbor again, and the range of those few light ballistae is limited, and it cannot cover the entire main channel in and out of the port. At this time, several ships rushed directly into the port area, and the sails that were blown up by the fierce wind had no intention of being taken down, and those ships just crashed into the port, colliding with the ships that had been tied to the port. The melee began immediately.

Not only that, the combat power of the Black Hawk Gang this time should not be underestimated, there are more than 100 large and small ships, including both large ships that can carry two or three hundred people, and small ships that can only carry twenty or thirty people, and only a small part of them rushed into the port. One warship after another just rushed to the beach and landed. The Black Hawk Gang did understand the topography and hydrology near Jiaoyayu, and they divided into three ways to attack the main island from three directions. The locations they chose were all rocky, with large bare beaches where boats could be washed ashore, allowing the sailors and Black Hawk Gang worshippers loaded on board to jump onto the shore directly. Although the impact on the shore and beach, the huge impact force when deliberately causing the grounding inevitably caused a burst of chickens and dogs to jump on the ship, and there were always some unprepared people who were injured before the battle began, and even smashed from the boat to the shore, breaking tendons or even dying directly.

However, a large number of Black Eagle gangs still landed successfully and began to fight deep on the island.

The courtyard in the middle of the mountainside where Ye Tao was located was in a good location, but it would not be attacked soon. Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the guards around Ye Tao and the guards of those merchants are not the same. More importantly, to be able to lead to the top of the mountain, where Qi Zhentao is now, Ye Tao must pass through here. If you don't go from here, you have to climb up a trail at the back of the island, and in this kind of weather, in this tense atmosphere, even if the Black Hawk gang dares to come up from this trail. Nor can there be a few people.

"Guan Huan, you go to the top of the mountain to have a look. What is Old Man Qi going to do, get a message back. Seeing that things were getting out of hand, Liu Yong stood up and commanded in a deep voice.

Guan Huan hurriedly went, and at this time, the well-trained guards had all put on their armor and were ready to fight.

"Wu Ping'an, Zhou Rui. Take twenty men with you, and rush down to meet them, and gather together those who are scattered to ward off the enemy. You can decide everything for yourself, if you disturb the morale of the army. Those who endanger the safety of others, no matter who they are, you will deal with them first. Liu Yong said categorically.

"Bi Xiaoqing, you take three people in the courtyard. All in one place. Important things are also concentrated. If there is a fish that has slipped through the net, it will be handed over to you. ”

"The rest of the people, lined up at the crossing in front of the courtyard. There's such a place here, I'm going to see who can catch it. Liu Yong snorted coldly. In fact, he wanted to go down the mountain to pick up those people by himself, and it would be much easier for him to subdue those who were disobedient and dared to talk and move around, causing the already chaotic scene to be shaken more and more. However, in this chaotic situation. He didn't dare to leave Ye Tao's side. In fact, the Nanami Trading Company on the island only had a lot more people than the Black Hawk Gang who attacked the island, but among all of them, there were more non-combatants. And the first thing that those merchants' guards should consider is to protect their own land bosses, and they don't necessarily dare to risk risking the wind and rain to come out and join their own manpower to meet the enemy, and in this way, it is easier to be broken by each one.

Liu Yong planned to take this small courtyard as the center, while gathering those deacons to move closer here. and they came up in response. If it's another occasion. Liu Yong may not have taken the lives and deaths of those merchants to heart, but all the merchants and deacons attending the meeting this time will have a considerable contribution to the future deployment of Seven Seas Trading Company. If the damage is too great, Nanami Trading Company will have problems operating for a while. And the significance of Nanami Trading Company to Dongping has long been more than just a trading company. But the manpower in his hands is really limited. Although Ye Tao's identity is respected, this time he came to Jiaoyayu for a meeting, and more than 60 people came at once, of which 48 were guards and soldiers of the special battalion, but these 48 people were far from enough to reverse this chaotic situation.

Seeing that Ye Tao also began to put on his armor and took out a two-handed long knife, Liu Yong was about to go up to dissuade him, but after a change of heart, he said, "My lord, no matter what, try to get as close to me as possible." Be careful, don't be strong. ”

Ye Tao responded calmly: "Uncle Liu, don't worry, I know." ”

Ye Tao, who was wearing full body armor, was not much more dangerous fighting outside than hiding in the room. The scarcity of manpower makes the defense of the people in the courtyard far less safe than the security of the guards outside. When it comes to danger, it is much more dangerous to catch a cold than to be killed.

The first to respond to the sound of the horn here were the people of the Liu family not far away. The old man was dressed in a robe, with twenty or thirty guards, carrying a few big boxes and ran over. Liu Qing is now the person in charge of the Jingluo Mansion, and has been responsible for the various matters related to Ye Tao and the Seven Seas Trading Company, although Liu Qing was originally the illegitimate son of the old man Liu, although he was favored by the old man but his status was embarrassing, but Liu Qing now does not need to be entangled in the division of the Liu family's family property. Whether it is because of Liu Qing, or because Old Man Liu is a little grateful to Ye Tao because of Liu Qing, the Liu family has a great sense of trust in Ye Tao. As soon as the old man came, he didn't say much, and after a few words with Ye Tao, he began to coordinate the placement in the original courtyard.

In the midst of the chaos on the island, when some people began to try to organize a little order, the most anxious people were perhaps not the people of the Seven Seas Trading Company, but the Black Hawk Gang. It is true that they have the advantage in a short period of time, but if they can't occupy the absolute advantage in the shortest possible time, occupy key positions such as the port and the Juyi Hall, which was used as a conference hall by the Nanami Trading Company after a simple modification, once the Nanami Trading Company organizes an effective defense, then the situation will be in trouble.

"Sharkeye Six, have they been in touch?" Among the last group of people to land on the main island of Jiaoyayu, there was Xu Hanchao, the leader of the Black Eagle Gang. As soon as he landed on the beach, he immediately asked about the progress of the Shark-Eyed Sixth and his group, and then he asked the hall masters, "How is the progress in the port?" Can you take it down? ”

A hall master shook his head silently, his face was very gloomy: "Old man Chao has been in the port and has never gotten off the boat. There's really nothing we can do about him. ”

"Good...... It's the old man again. Xu Hanchao spat and said: "Why didn't this old man return to heaven earlier?" ”

The old man Chao's name is Chao Ge, and when it comes to being a pirate, his qualifications are deeper than Qi Zhentao's, but Chao Ge is still a naval battle genius, and he doesn't understand anything else. Whether it is the small sampan or the current Huya fleet, the basic tactics were formulated by Chao Ge, and now Chao Ge is also the commander-in-chief when the members of the Seven Seas Trading Company unite to launch an attack. But Chao Ge has a very typical professional habit: he can't sleep in a bed that doesn't shake. Chao Ge's home was on a specially built warship, and when Qi Zhentao was there, he was usually the flagship of Qi Zhentao and served as the commander of the entire fleet. Normally, this is just a strange problem that everyone will laugh at, but now, it has become one of the keys to stabilizing the port.

Relying on Ye's workshop, the Seven Seas Trading Company had a huge profit from maritime trade, but it did not have the large number of people in the Dongping military, so it had to consider the size of the cost, especially now that each family had formed its own escort forces, and some of them were competing with each other, and the sailors who stayed on the ships stationed in the harbor were extremely well-equipped. Although the Nanami Trading Company now rarely uses gang-jumping battles and is accustomed to bullying their enemies with ballistas and fire oil shells, the sailors still have a pair of leather armor and a simple sword with a good length.

With the veteran Chao Ge in charge, and the well-equipped and well-trained sailors fighting hard, the Black Hawks' desperate attacks did not play much of a role in the harbor where the Black Hawk had high hopes. And the gangs who landed on the island in other places were not able to rush over to attack the port side for a while.

"Burn! Burn me! Xu Hanchao gritted his teeth and said, "Light those imitation fire oil bombs and burn them for me." ”

As soon as Xu Hanchao's order arrived, after being a little stunned, the Black Eagle Gang's gang became more and more crazy. Although the power is much different, and there is no chance of causing a deflagration effect, at least one thing is the same, that is, the strong erosion and burning ability of wooden ship plate materials and the basic characteristics of floating on the surface of the water to burn. One by one, the small canisters that had been lit were thrown onto the decks that had to be captured with heavy casualties, and all the original fire oil bombs stored in the ships of the Nanami Trading Company, which had been captured at a great cost, were turned over and thrown at the ships on the side. Some hit the targets they wanted to destroy, while others smashed into the water, spreading a burning membrane all over the water......

After destroying their own ship to win the suddenness, the Black Hawks actually began to destroy the ships of the Nanami Trading Company at any cost? This crazy move made Chao Ge and the others dumbfounded, and on the port side, the momentum of the Black Eagle Gang suddenly rose up, suppressing the sailors of the Seven Seas Trading Company.
