The lucky boat of the Inspection Division is probably used to being powerful and lucky, and there is not much reaction to the approach of Zhang Zhun and others. On their deck, there were only a few scattered figures, as if they were just looking at the scenery. The sailman on duty on the mast sat on the beam, dangling his legs gracefully.

In fact, Zhang Zhun's two ships are basically merchant ships in appearance, and there are no cannons, no wonder the people in the inspection department will not pay attention. Since Zheng Zhilong and others were appeased, the Yangtze River estuary, and even the entire South China Sea region, has been relatively calm. The sporadic pirates were basically wiped out by Zheng Zhilong. Zheng Zhilong himself is a big pirate, and it is naturally effortless to eliminate these little pirates.

Of course, the people of the Jiangyin Inspection Department would not have thought that the wolves from the north had quietly gone south. The storm that is blowing in their faces must first hit them.

"Prepare for battle!"

Zhang Zhun said coldly.

Ever since the lookout post sounded the alarm, the fighters had long been ready for battle.

Zhang Zhun arranged the two ships like this. He himself took ten snipers, as well as two squads of Zhang Youcai and Peng Bo, as well as Liu Dong's sailor combat detachment, on Yang Guohua's flagship. The ten sniper teams led by Yang Weiguo, Zhong Wuying, Liu Jixiang and others, plus Zhou Yanyu's squad and Fang He's sailor combat detachment, were on Miss Sisi's merchant ship. The ship, at the same time, was commanded by Zhou Zhengyu.

Such a deployment can deal with naval warfare, landing warfare, as well as land warfare. As long as the opponent's artillery fire is not very fierce, it can be defeated. The people who went south this time were all the winners of the military contest that had just been held. For them, the trip is more like a battle to reward them. Therefore, their morale, and the confidence of victory, do not need to be doubted in the slightest.

At this time, the ship of the Inspection Division also discovered the existence of Zhang Zhun and others. When they started, they didn't find anything out of the ordinary. Near the mouth of the Yangtze River, there are many merchant ships coming and going. It is not surprising that after dawn, some merchant ships appear here. However, when Zhang Zhun and the others unabashedly marched straight towards them, they finally felt that something was wrong.

Soon, someone on the ship of the Inspection Division waved a flag, a red flag. At the same time, Zhang Zhun could see from the clairvoyant mirror that some of the armed personnel of the Inspection Division, perhaps as they should be called Inspectors or Inspectors, came out of the cabin one after another and raised their firearms on the deck. The costumes of these people are similar to those of the Jiaozhou Salt Inspection Division, all of them are black. Sure enough, the world is generally dark!

After Yang Guohua read the flag, he said to Zhang Zhun: "My lord, the inspection department is warning us not to approach, otherwise, we will be attacked." ”

Zhang Zhun said coldly: "Ignore him, continue to get closer." ”

The ship then proceeded closer.

The Fu Ship of the Inspection Division hurriedly signaled, and soon, more inspectors appeared on the deck and set up a dense group of muskets. Judging from their arrangement, it seems that these patrolmen also know how to shoot in three stages. The patrolmen lined up at the edge of the deck were quite dense, with hundreds of people. At the same time, some sailmen began to climb onto the mast, trying to run the sails to avoid the impact of Zhang Zhun and others. It turned out that the sailman on the mast was also busy.

On Zhang Zhun's side, all the snipers are assembled and on standby to attack the opponent's sailors at any time. However, because the distance was still relatively far, Zhang Zhun did not give the order to shoot. In Zhang Zhun's heart, this lucky ship would definitely not be able to escape, and it was completely unnecessary to shoot at such a long distance.

As Zhang Zhun continued to get closer and menacing, the ship of the Inspection Division obviously sensed that something was wrong, hurriedly untied the sails, and began to maneuver to the west. However, after all, it is a 200-ton ship, and it is not easy to move it all at once. In the morning, near Chongming Island, there was no wind. At the same time, Yang Guohua also consciously adjusted the angle of the flagship and continued to rush towards the lucky ship.

100 zhang ...... Eighty zhang ...... Sixty zhang ...... "Bang bang bang!" ”

It was the inspector of the inspection department who fired.

The gunfire was very dense, instantly breaking the movement around Chongming Island.

White smoke was constantly bursting out, and the entire surrounding area of the Fu Ship was white in patches. Those dense patrolmen were slowly shrouded in white smoke, and the shadowy figures could be seen the most, but the details were completely invisible.

The inspection departments in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, because they have special powers, can fish a lot of oil and water, so their inspectors are very likely to obtain better equipment. In fact, even the Salt Inspection Division in Jiaozhou is basically equipped with firecrackers. The income of the Jiangshang Inspection Division is much more generous than that of the Jiaozhou Salt Inspection Division, so they are equipped with more firearms. Zhang Zhun made a rough judgment just now, I'm afraid it's not less than 200.

Moreover, most of the firearms used by those patrolmen were fine flying birds. Although this kind of arquebus is the original arquebus, but because the manufacturing process is quite good, the accuracy and range are OK, it is claimed to be able to shoot down birds accurately, so it is called the bird gun. It's just that it's more troublesome to shoot and you need to light a long arque. Reloading after shooting also takes a long time.

However, no matter how good the surname of the bird gun is, the effective range is between 20 and 30 zhang. At a distance of sixty zhang, he shot and shot, which was a joke. It's a waste of ammunition! The Ming army in Liaodong often shot indiscriminately before the Tartars were in range, and the same was true for the patrolmen here. Sure enough, the flying birds of the patrol and the sound of ping-pong were very lively, but Zhang Zhun had no impact on his side. The projectiles all fell on the surface of the sea. Because the projectile is so small, there is no reaction at all from the sea.

"Go within thirty feet and shoot again!"

Zhang Zhun said calmly.

Zhu Chengtai and other snipers all released the trigger.

In fact, at a distance of fifty zhang, their hit rate is still okay. However, the flying bird gun of the inspection department can't hit thirty feet away at all, so there is no need to worry. Due to the obscuration of the white smoke, it is indeed more certain to shoot again after entering the 30 zhang.

Fifty zhang ...... Forty zhang ...... "Bang bang bang!" ”

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The distance is getting closer and closer, and the gunfire on the side of the Fu boat is getting more and more violent. There were about two hundred people on the ship of the Salt Inspection Division, and each of them was equipped with a firecracker, so naturally all of them were fired at this time. Those patrolmen didn't care whether the flying bird guns caused damage to Zhang Zhun and others, they just kept shooting. It seems that the gunshots of the flying birds can effectively block Zhang Zhun and others from approaching.

In fact, if the other party were an ordinary merchant ship, they would definitely be frightened when they heard such a dense gunfire. After all, the shooting of the flying bird still sounds quite scary. The fires and loud noises all give people a strong sense of shock. It's a pity that what they encountered was the Tiger Army, or the elite of the Tiger Army. Who cares about the sound of a bird's gun?

Thirty feet...... "Shoot!" ”

Zhang Zhun shouted in a deep voice.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The fighters who were waiting for the battle pulled the trigger one after another.

In an instant, a storm-like Mini bomb poured towards the Patrol Division's lucky boat.

Although the Fubune was shrouded in layers of white smoke, and it was impossible to see the specific location of the personnel, it didn't matter, as long as he shot at the white smoke position. The soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army just now have clearly seen that the ranks of those patrolmen are so dense. For the Tiger Ben, such a dense team is simply a goal that is even bigger than a clay pot! Even with your eyes closed, you won't fly.

As for snipers such as Dugu Hunt, they fired in the direction of the mast. Despite the white smoke, they were able to determine the location of the mast based on the overall structure of the ship. As for whether you can hit the sailor accurately, it depends on luck. However, in front of so many Mini bullets, the sailor of the lucky boat, if he wants to completely dodge it, it also depends on luck.

"Ahh

"Ahh

"Ahh

Sure enough, after a dense burst of gunfire, there were bursts of screams from the side of the Fu boat.

Because the screams were so many and dense, Zhang Zhun and the others couldn't tell how many people were screaming. However, judging from the instant interruption of the sound of the bird's shot, there must have been a lot of patrolmen who were hit by Minnie's bullets. Who told them to put on a formation like that? It's like waiting in line to be shot! Looking for death by yourself, who do you blame?

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

Amid the screams, the sound of people falling into the water was constantly heard.

Faintly, you can see the port side of the fortune boat, and there is a constant splash of water.

Presumably, the Rangers at the edge of the deck were hit by Minnie's bullets and fell directly into the water. Judging from the situation of those patrolmen just now, if they fall forward, there will indeed be many people who will fall directly into the sea.

On the deck of the lucky ship, there was no protection, and a string of Mini bullets swept over, and the consequences could be imagined. This is still the white smoke they shot before, which helped them, so that the Tiger Ben soldiers could not see exactly where each of them was, and could only shoot roughly, otherwise, their casualties would be greater.

Rao is like this, it is enough for those patrolmen to be heartbroken, and their souls are scattered. After all, they are just inspectors of the inspection department, not a formal army, and they usually scare and scare the common people, where have they experienced such a battle? For a time, the patrolman who was beaten to death was killed, and the beaten man was beaten, and he completely lost his square inch. The originally dense formation had long been completely shattered, and there were only a large number of corpses on the deck. As for raising a gun to shoot back, that would not be a thought at all.

"Pirates!"

"The pirates are coming!"

"Run, everyone, the pirates are coming!"

After a long time, the surviving patrolmen woke up from a dream and shouted one after another.

They couldn't accurately judge Zhang Zhun's identity, so they could only regard them as pirates. In fact, in this place, who else would dare to attack them directly, except for pirates? Even if it's a pirate, it's a pirate who doesn't want to die, so he would do such a desperate action. Attacking the Inspection Division, isn't this a rebellion?

Their voices were so loud that even Zhang Zhun could hear them. Zhang Zhun couldn't help but smile slightly, what a pirate! Lao Tzu is the rightful commander of the Ao Shan Guard. But it's okay for you to think of me as a pirate. Because, this time I went south, it is indeed the work of pirates!

In the morning, there was no wind on Chongming Island, and the surroundings of the lucky boat were all white smoke, which could not be blown away for a while. After a series of shots, there was no movement at all on the Fu boat, except for faint moans of pain. In order to avoid wasting ammunition, Zhang Zhun ordered all squads to temporarily stop shooting, leaving only the snipers to supervise the field. However, Lee was specifically allowed to join the ranks of snipers. Dugu Hunt's covetousness for Li Menghao has always been unrelenting.

The gunfire gradually subsided, and it was as if nothing had happened except for the white smoke that kept drifting away. After a long time, the surviving patrolmen on the ship, not knowing what had happened, thought that the pirates had withdrawn, so they got up and tried to find a better place to hide.

"Bang!"

Zhu Chengtai, who can't wait, raises his hand to shoot a shot.

In the white smoke, a figure fell on the spot.

"Bang!"

He Jianing also fired.

In the white smoke, a black shadow also fell.

"Bang!"

Li Menghao shot at the same time.

"Ahh

A scream came, and the voice was a little erratic.

"Smack!"

Immediately after, something seemed to fall heavily on the other party's deck.

It turned out that Li Menghao's eyes were indeed powerful, and through the white smoke, he found that on the mast of the lucky ship, there was a sailor hidden in the enemy. In the intensive shooting just now, this sail sailer was actually lucky, but it was also a blessing. It's a pity that he couldn't escape Li Menghao's eyes in the end. As soon as the shot passed, the sailman fell obediently.

"Prepare to jump into the gang!"

"The two ships should be close together, pay attention to the collision!"

"The two ships should be close together, pay attention to the collision!"

Yang Guohua's cold voice came.

Their purpose was to capture the lucky ship of the Inspection Division. Since you want to capture the other party, you can only engage in gang jumping battles and jump into the lucky boat to fight the opponent in close quarters. In this era, this was the only way to achieve the goal of capturing enemy ships. In the era of smoothbore cannons, even if there were cannons, if you wanted to capture the opposing ship, you had to rely on jumping gangs to fight. To put it in layman's terms, it is the bayonet that is red. Of course, this is also where the most intense, bloody and complicated naval battles lie, and ordinary people's nerves are unbearable.

"Sailor! All sailors! Get ready to jump! ”

"Swing your hands! All the jumping hands! Get ready to jump! ”

"Flying cymbals! All the cymbals! Get ready to jump! ”

Liu Dong's loud voice followed.

Gang-jumping operations require professional troops and personnel. At the same time, there is a clear division of labor for different personnel. It is simply impossible for those who are temporarily on board to be competent. The usual training of the sailor detachment is for the purpose of jumping gang combat. Dugu Hunt and other snipers, although their marksmanship is very good, after all, they are not very familiar with the procedures of gang jumping, so they can only fight.
