Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 At this time, although Lawrence did not know what the situation was, he began to order the sailors to manipulate the ship's guns to bombard the battleship, but the caliber of the guns of the Hope and the Wanderer was too small to cause serious damage to the battleship, and the sailors of the Wanderer were not trained in systematic naval gun shooting, and the Wanderer did not have a special naval gun control radar, resulting in a very low hit rate!

On the other hand, the Hope's shells kept hitting the battleship, although it could not cause serious damage, but after several hits, a high-explosive bomb finally ignited the rear deck of the battleship, and the Hope had a good control of the distance, basically keeping a distance of about 12 kilometers from the battleship, plus the Hope was very fast, causing the battleship to miss one of the six salvos, and the angry pirate leader scolded "Send a telegram to that destroyer, let him either flee quickly or surrender quickly, Or we'll sink you! ”

Zhang Lin smiled after receiving the telegram, his tone was very arrogant, very good, you won't be arrogant after a while! If the battleship had been systematically trained by the Navy, the Hope might have been sunk at this time, but the rabble could not judge the location of the shells very well, and although it had the help of fire control radar, it still could not achieve an effective hit!

Then Zhang Lin asked the telegraph operator to send a telegram to the Wanderer, and asked the Wanderer to leave as soon as possible to avoid danger!

"Captain, we received a telegram from that destroyer!" The first mate of the Wanderer found Lawrence with a telegram from the Hope!

Lawrence was thinking about how to get out safely at this time, and his mind was not on it at all: "You read it to me!" ”

"Captain Lawrence, I'm Zhang Lin, now you leave quickly, while the pirates are angry and sink you, I'll be there later!" When Lawrence knew that the destroyer was piloted by Zhang Lin, he was very surprised, but when he thought of the trouble of searching the destroyer to find the battleship, he still sweated for Zhang Lin, but for Zhang Lin's trust, he still let him do what Zhang Lin said!

The pirate leader was very disdainful when he saw the Wandering secretly running away, and wanted to let you run, and I will chase you when I sink this destroyer, you can't escape from the palm of my hand! But he never thought about why he still didn't get an effective hit after so long, he just wanted to sink Zhang Lin quickly so that he could chase the Wanderer!

Watching the battleship keep walking towards the place where he fired the torpedo, Zhang Lin was happy in his heart, aren't you very arrogant? Now let you taste the torpedo first, and then make you look good later!

"A torpedo was found in the bow!"

"Torpedo approaching the bow of the ship!"

"What, that torpedo!" The pirate leader was completely panicked, the torpedo was a mortal threat to a large surface ship such as a battleship, and once the combat head of the torpedo could penetrate the mine-resistant armor of the battleship, then it would be fatal to be hit by a torpedo! However, the torpedoes of the USS Hope are deadly for any surface ship!

The battleship began to twist its clumsy body, ready to avoid the torpedoes coming from the front, but its maneuverability was really poor, although it avoided the two torpedoes in front, but the next torpedo hit the port side near the bow, and the huge explosion caused the steel beast to have a huge vibration!

"Report that the leader's port side armor has been torn, a large amount of water has entered, the damage pipe is uncontrollable, and the hatch has been closed!"

Before the pirate leader could breathe, another damage report had already been reported: "Chief, the port side of the bow has a thousand tons of water, and the hull is tilted six degrees to the left, let's evacuate quickly, this has seriously affected the combat effectiveness of the battleship!" ”

When the pirate leader heard this, he was very helpless, and then ordered to turn the bow of the ship and evacuate quickly, but Zhang Lin didn't plan to let go of the battleship so easily, and kept chasing after the batch for shelling!

As the saying goes, blessing is not a single line in the face of disaster, under the constant harassment of the Hope, the bridge of the battleship caught fire again, and then a large number of personnel began to put out the fire, and the pirate leader ordered the rear main turret to fire back, but Zhang Lin had already expected it and easily avoided the past!

That group of pirates was completely chaotic, and they couldn't calm down at all, and it was difficult for them to form an effective combat force when they were in this kind of battle!

Zhang Lin ordered the Hope to chase the battleship all the time, and after two hours, the battleship was attacked by the Hope and there were five fires, but Zhang Lin understood that the battleship could not be sunk with the main guns of Hope, and at this time the other party was guarding against his torpedoes, so he had to give up and chase the Wanderer!

At this time, the pirate leader of this battleship was repentant, not only did he not rob a single gold coin, but the hull was seriously damaged, and he really lost his wife and soldiers, and the gains outweighed the losses, and this time he had to repair the battleship, and he was really going bankrupt!

Zhang Lin finally caught up with the Wanderer after three hours of sailing, Captain Lawrence was very grateful to Zhang Lin this time, before he thought that maybe Zhang Lin would be able to help him in a few years, but he didn't expect Zhang Lin to save him once so soon, it's really unpredictable!

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang Lin!" Lawrence politely thanked Zhang Lin!

"It's okay, if it weren't for Captain Lawrence, I, Zhang Lin, would have been buried in the belly of the fish by now, so I don't have to do this!" Zhang Lin still has a very good feeling about Lawrence, there is no other businessman who only makes profits, and he is still a friend to make!

Then Zhang Lin and Lawrence began to chat, Zhang Lin asked Lawrence to do him a favor, and Lawrence hurriedly agreed! Zhang Lin took Lawrence into the bottom warehouse of the Hope, Lawrence looked at the mountains of gold coins and a large number of gems, and was stunned, "Zhang Lin, how many merchant ships did you rob to get these?" ”

Zhang Lin shook his head: "Does Captain Lawrence look at me like a robber of merchant ships?" ”

Lawrence also wondered in his heart, Zhang Lin said this, it was definitely not a robbery of merchant ships, "Where did you get all this money?" ”

"I robbed it from pirates, and now I want Captain Lawrence to deposit these money and gems into the World Bank for me, and I know my account, I can't bring these belongings back, so I'll ask Captain Lawrence!"

Lawrence looked at Zhang Lin's trust in freedom, and nodded solemnly, these belongings are very exciting, but compared to Zhang Lin's friend, it is nothing, Lawrence knows very well in his heart that he will deposit all this money into Zhang Lin's account!

After more than four hours to transfer the gold coins and gems on the Hope to the Wanderer, Zhang Lin said goodbye to Lawrence, of course, the gold coins that were to be distributed to the sailors of the Hope Zhang Lin stayed, and these money were what these sailors deserved!
