Chapter 142: I'd rather die than surrender

Yang Ming ordered to turn around and block the pursuing enemy ships, and he already had the intention of dying. At the same time, Xu Zifeng's other battered warship also turned around, and it had the same plan as Yang Ming.

Two ships, between the British and French warships and Lu Shaochuan.

Lu Shaochuan looked at the battleship where Yang Ming and Xu Zifeng were, stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of Yang Ming and Xu Zifeng, and shouted: "Quick, turn Lao Tzu, kill back, and fight with the foreigners." Even if he dies, Lao Tzu can't leave his brother behind! ”

"U-turn! Make a U-turn! ”

Lu Shaochuan roared loudly, and his voice was a little hoarse.

Zhao Fa stopped the soldiers from transmitting the message, ordered to continue the retreat, and pulled Lu Shaochuan again, and said solemnly: "Battalion commander, the foreigners deliberately set a trap, and we have fallen for the trick." Now that Yang Ming and Xu Zifeng are staying to stall for time, we still have a chance to evacuate. If you kill it now, it will definitely be a situation where the whole army will be annihilated, so you have to think twice before acting. ”

Lu Shaochuan raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Zhao Fa, have you forgotten what happened back then?" When we fought with Wang Lung, you were almost killed by Wang Lung, but it was Yang Ming who blocked a knife for you with his back and saved your life. Now that Yang Ming is staying to save us, how can you still be indifferent? Is your heart made of stone? ”

"I'm for the big picture, for more brothers."

Zhao Fa was also angry and fought back loudly.

Lu Shaochuan yelled: "The big picture of bullshit, Lao Tzu's brother is going to die, can you watch him die?" If you are a man with a handle, you will kill me with you. Even if they died together, they are still a good man eighteen years later. ”

When Zhao Fa heard this, he immediately showed hesitation.

Reason told Zhao Fa that he should immediately avoid the British and French fleets; Emotionally, Zhao Fa also wanted to kill back.

The two choices were constantly circling in Zhao Fa's mind.

"Both, have you considered the ideas of Company Commander Yang and Company Commander Xu?"

Suddenly, Zhu Wu's voice sounded, and Zhu Wu shouted: "Yang Ming and Xu Zifeng took the initiative to stay in order to buy more time for the other brothers to retreat. You are chirping crookedly here, wasting the time that Yang Ming and Xu Zifeng exchanged for their lives, do you still have a conscience? If it is a man, he will withdraw immediately, leaving him useful, and then avenge his dead brother later. ”

When Zhao Fa and Lu Shaochuan heard this, their bodies suddenly froze.

To go or not to go, it makes sense.

Seeing that the two of them were difficult to decide, Zhu Wu shouted decisively: "Withdraw, withdraw towards Shanghai, and don't return to Butterfly Island." "There are pursuers behind, and the appearance of the foreigner fleet has to be reported to Li Zhenyu, so Zhu Wu ordered to run towards Shanghai.

The four battleships were at full speed and moving forward quickly.

Yang Ming looked at the four ships in the distance, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at the British and French warships approaching in the dark.

"Open fire and stop the enemy ships!"

Yang Ming carried a gun and shouted suddenly.

In an instant, the ship's four cannons opened fire at full strength.

Xu Zifeng also ordered to open artillery to meet the attack, but unfortunately Xu Zifeng's warship was attacked most fiercely, the mast, deck, and bow of the battleship were blown up, and the hull was seriously destroyed. Yang Ming looked at the big ship that was gradually silent, his mood was low, and he shouted: "Open the cannon, open the cannon!" ”

"Boom!"

A cannonball whizzed and landed on the edge of the ship's side and exploded.

The battleship shook, and Yang Ming's feet slipped and fell to the ground. Yang Ming didn't care about the pain in his body, stood up, and shouted: "Cheer up, follow me to kill the enemy." We are martyred today, and he will have his own brothers to avenge us. ”

"Kill! Fight the enemy! ”

On the battleship, soldiers shouted loudly. These people are all Yang Ming's old brothers, and they are extremely loyal.

"Report!"

A soldier hurriedly ran over, looked panicked, and shouted: "Company commander, there are no shells on the ship, and it is impossible to fire shells to stop the enemy ship." ”

The corners of Yang Ming's mouth twitched, but he didn't expect that there would be no shells at the critical time. He grabbed the side of the ship and looked at the British and French warships. Although the artillery shells fired just now did not sink the opponent's warships, they also caused the six battleships in front of the opponent to be shot, and it was difficult to continue the pursuit, but there were still more than a dozen battleships galloping across the sea.

"What should I do?"

Yang Ming was in a heavy mood and considered how to resist!

At this moment, Yang Ming is not allowed to think.

Yang Ming took a deep breath and roared, "Drive over, ram the enemy ship, and die with the enemy." ”

At the critical moment, Yang Ming ordered to rush over.

The battleship drove at full speed and rushed towards the coalition warship that was running at the front.

This move frightened the officers of the coalition warships at the front. For foreigners, life is the most important thing, and if the battleship loses its strength, it should raise the white flag and surrender. Now when I encounter a battleship rushing towards me, I immediately panic. In particular, the officer on the first battleship shouted: "Open the cannon, quickly, sink the opponent!" ”

"Hurry up and shoot!"

The officer was so anxious that he yelled again, extremely anxious.

"Boom!!"

One after another, shells flew out and rushed towards Yang Ming's battleship.

As one shell after another was fired, Yang Ming's battleship was shot continuously, and it was already devastated. When the distance between the two warships was only less than twenty meters, Yang Ming's battleship power system was damaged. Yang Ming saw that the two sides were close at hand but could not advance, so he was so angry that he stomped his feet again and again, and shouted: "Brothers, the battleship can't rush over, pick up the gun in your hand and shoot the enemy." ”

Yang Ming raised his gun and aimed at the soldiers on the battleship in front of him, pulled the trigger and fired.

The rest of the soldiers followed suit and opened fire,

"Bang! Bang!!! ”

Gunshots rang out one after another, and everyone was doing the final blow.

Although Yang Ming and the rest of the soldiers resisted stubbornly, they won the appreciation of the British Minister in China. Bao Ling stood on the flagship deck, looked at the people who still did not surrender, and said, "Your Excellency Bourlon, the spirit of these pirates is so strong that it is admirable. From this point of view, Li Zhen is also a powerful figure. If most of China were like this, no one would have been able to conquer this ancient country. ”

Bouron nodded, his expression solemn.

Bao Ling said: "Although the spirit of the Chinese cannot be destroyed, such people are a minority after all. ”

Adams was not in the mood to discuss this, and said directly: "Mr. Bao Ling, Lu Shaochuan fled with the rest of the pirates, and we have to speed up our pursuit, otherwise they will escape." ”

Bao Ling sneered: "Escape? Where are they fleeing? ”

Adams didn't think about it, and replied, "Naturally, I fled back to the lair." ”

Bao Ling said: "After the warships of the British and French forces arrived in Shanghai, it was impossible for Lu Shaochuan to gain a foothold on the sea, and staying at sea would only end up being annihilated. Now, Lu Shaochuan has only one way, and that is to return to Shanghai. Wouldn't it be great that we took the opportunity to kill the past, not only to prove that Ali Guo and Aitang were killed by Li Zhen, but also to kill Li Zhen, and to threaten the Qing Emperor? ”

Rawell said: "What about the Chinese on the other side? ”

Bao Ling said: "They swear to resist, but I believe that there are always some people who are afraid of death." These people are the evidence of our threat to the emperor, defeat the other party, and get some people to come up and imprison. ”

"Understood!"

Rawell found an officer who could speak Chinese and asked the officer to recruit the people who had landed in the sea.
