However, the sailmen on the mast of the Fu ship have all been lost, and without the help of the sails, it is impossible for Lao Qi to retreat quickly. Although he personally steered the rudder and showed his highest level of rudder skills, compared to the nimble Cangshan boat, the movement of the Fu boat was still too slow, really too slow.

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

The three Cangshan ships continued to open fire.

This time, they were using chain bullets.

Cheng Lei and the others were ready to break the mast of the Fu Ship and completely terminate its ability to maneuver.

The chain bomb hit the top of the fortune ship fiercely, making a strange sound. There are constantly equipment and facilities that are being beaten to pieces, and wood chips or something are flying sideways. The pirates in the cabin were terrified. Lao Qi can only close his eyes tightly, looking forward to God's blessing. The battle in front of him was completely beyond his ability.

"Squeak quack!"

"Squeak quack!"

"Squeak quack!"

Suddenly, the mast made a strange sound.

"Oops!"

"The mast is going to break!"

Lao Qi suddenly yelled that it was not good.

The mast is breaking.

This strange sound is the sound of the mast cracking.

Suffering from the continuous heavy damage of chain bullets, the mast of this lucky ship finally could not support it.

"Smack!"

With a crisp loud bang, the mast split in two from the middle.

With heavy sails and a mast on the upper half, it fell hard.

"Abandon ship!"

Lao Qi had no choice but to shout helplessly.

The mast was broken, the sails were torn, but he could not fight back, and he really couldn't think of a better way than to abandon ship. The sound of the mast falling down was enough to shatter the hole in the bottom of the ship again. In other words, the ship is settled.

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

The surviving pirates jumped into the water to escape.

"Boom!"

The mast slammed into the deck.

The surroundings of the deck were all shattered in an instant, and the flying wood chips even flew more than a dozen feet away. The upper deck of the entire Fu ship seems to have been bombarded by the Hongyi cannon, and it is a mess. Countless debris poured directly into the seawater. Above the murky waters, there were floating pirate corpses everywhere. There are also pirates who have escaped by jumping into the water, struggling desperately in the icy waters. The hull of the Fubune was also shaken to the ground, and then slowly floated again.

Due to the violent vibration, the hole in the bottom of the ship immediately cracked, and a large amount of seawater continued to pour in. The sea poured in from below, and all the debris in the wreck was pushed out, as if there was a huge garbage heap below, and it was all pushed up at once. In a matter of moments, the ship began to sink. Then, the surging sea water rushed out of the cabin, rolling up the white waves.

"Huh?"

"What's going on?"

"Sinking so soon?"

Cheng Lei and the others were so strange, although they broke each other's masts and tore each other's sails, they didn't penetrate each other's ship's side! How did this lucky ship sink so quickly? Could it be that the pirates themselves scuttled it? It seems so! Originally, they were going to capture this enemy ship, and it seemed that there was no chance. Damn pirates! Scuttled the ship! Ruthless enough!

"Another one was sunk!"

Shen Lingfei exclaimed excitedly.

"Luck!"

Zhang Zhun said calmly.

The sinking of this lucky ship is indeed luck.

If it hadn't hit the reef beforehand, the three Cangshan ships would have had no chance to get close to each other. The fierce artillery fire of the Fu ship was enough to make the three Cangshan ships unable to get close. Even if the Cangshan ship could rely on the long range of the Wyvern Cannon and inflict heavy damage on the opponent, it would not be able to sink the opponent. Perhaps, this is God's favor for himself.

"There are two smaller ones over there!"

With the regret of not being able to capture the pirate ship, the three Cangshan ships continued to attack.

Their next target was the two ships that were still entangled. It is also laughable to say that the two Haicang ships that collided with each other took a lot of effort to finally get free. The respective masts are all saved. However, for the time being, they can only stop standing still. Why? Because the ropes that pulled the sails had been cut by the axe, they had to be reconnected. If you don't, the sails won't work.

It's easy to cut the ropes with an axe, but it's a lot more troublesome to tie them all up and re-tie them up. Even if there was no interference, it would take an hour or two for a number of Popeye to stand together on top of the mast to pull up the heavy sails. At the same time, on deck, there are a number of Popeye to assist.

Originally, they thought that the battle had moved forward, that they were in the rear, and that they were basically safe. Now the enemy has reached the stage of firing grapeshothureal and chain shells, and neither grapeshot nor chain bullets can hit such a long distance. Who would have thought that there would be three vicious Cangshan boats, and they would appear quietly! By the time they spotted the enemy ship approaching, it was too late.

"Tom Tom"

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

Three Cangshan ships preemptively opened fire.

As soon as they came up, they used grapeshot.

In order to re-pull the sails, a large number of sailors gathered on the decks of the two ships, as well as on the masts. There are at least a few dozen. For grapeshot, this is really the best target to shoot. A volley of artillery passed, and as soon as it hit, the pirates were about to fall. Hey, want to pull the sails back up, dream!

Sure enough, a burst of artillery passed, and the deck of the Haicang ship to the west was suddenly in disarray. Dense marbles fell, and the pirates on the deck really fell. For a time, there was a lot of blood on the deck, and the sea of blood was drifting. The surviving pirates hurriedly threw away everything they had and hurried into the cabin to take refuge. In the chaos, some wounded people were trampled to death, and some people slipped on the soles of their feet, only to be stepped on by their companions behind, and they were seriously injured if they did not die.

Most of the pirates on the mast were also knocked down, and they fell to the deck with a crackle. Fortunately, he crushed his companions below, and he was basically fine. If you are unlucky, you will land directly on the deck, and naturally you will fall into a meatloaf. There are also people who are the most unlucky, when they fall, they are hooked by the cable and hang directly in the air, and they don't know whether they are dead or alive.

"Whoa!"

The sails of the ship, which had not yet been fully pulled, naturally slipped down.

The mast continues to be bare.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

The captain of the pirate ship hurriedly shouted.

If the enemy ships were allowed to get closer, their fate could be predicted.

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

The panicked pirates hurriedly opened fire.

They use the same grapeshot. The enemy used grapeshotfire, and of course they responded with grapeballs. In close artillery battles, grapeshotfire is much more effective than solid shells, and the chance of hitting is much greater.

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

"Tom tom!"

There were more guns on the Haicang ship than the Cangshan ship, and after a shot, it was really vigorous, resounding throughout the sea. It's a pity that the grape bomb they shot fell on the sea more than 100 meters in front of the Cangshan boat. However, the pirates continued to fire their cannons, frantically preventing the three Cangshan ships from approaching.

The Cangshan boat also kept firing back. Due to the deterrence of grapeballs from corsairs, they could only shoot at a distance of about four hundred meters. Despite the poor hit rate, more grape bullets landed on the top of the ship. Since the sails were not completely perfect, both ships could only float on the surface of the sea, and became the best targets.

"Change the ammunition!"

"Chainbomb!"

Soon, the Cangshan ship changed its ammunition type.

Round by round of chain bullets, they continued to hit the past.

Cheng Lei and the others prepared to completely paralyze the pirate ship's maneuverability, and then break them individually. It is a pity that at such a distance, the hit rate of chain shells is not very high. The main reason is that the sky is completely dark at this time. If there were no cannon fire, it would be impossible to describe it as reaching out and not seeing five fingers. Cheng Lei couldn't see the landing point of the chain bullet at all, so naturally he couldn't make corrections. The situation on Liu Sheng and Wang He's side is similar.

"Doot toot!"

Suddenly, a lookout post at the top of the mast sounded a hurried alarm.

Enemy ships have outflanked them!

Cheng Lei held a clairvoyant mirror and observed the surroundings through the fire fired from the cannon, and found that there were a total of three pirate ships approaching them. It turned out that at this time, the pirates had found themselves behind them, and three ghostly boats had appeared, attacking their companions. Sun Ronglu immediately ordered a Fu ship and two Haicang ships to come back and deal with them.

In order to preserve their strength, the three Haicang ships immediately retreated. The path they took to retreat was the water closest to Little Yellow Island. Due to their light displacement and shallow draft, they can easily retreat across this side of the sea. At the same time, they are often active here, and they naturally know the reef here. The pursuing pirate ship did not dare to enter this sea area in a daze, for fear of hitting the reef. There was no way, the pirate ships watched the three Cangshan ships swagger away.

At this time, Lao Qi's lucky ship happened to sink completely. Compared with the previous Haicang ship, the scene of the sinking of this lucky ship is even more spectacular. After it sank, the whirlpool formed on the surface of the sea was five or six zhang wide. Looking at the huge whirlpool that appeared on the surface of the water, the pirates who came to reinforce felt that their scalps were a little numb.

They lost another ship! And it's a large fortune ship! Oh my God, how the hell is this battle fought? Why is it so bad? They haven't seen Zhang Zhun yet, but they have already lost two ships! More wounded boats!
