readx; As Fufune preemptively opened fire to attack the Thousand Stone Ship, a tense and fierce naval battle began!

Zheng's sailors relied on the fact that there were Franco's cannons on their fortune boats, and when they were still a hundred feet away from the thousand-stone ship, they began to fire cannons. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info However, this distance was beyond the range of the Furlong cannon, and it did not do much except to make a splash in front of the enemy ship.

However, the Thousand Stone Ships of the Wako were obviously accustomed to this kind of battle, and were not afraid at all, and still took advantage of the wind to quickly approach the Fukubune.

Xu Laosi was a little anxious, and while ordering the gunners to continue firing, he asked the sailors to adjust the sails and turn the rudder to the right, trying to widen the distance from the Qianshi ship, maintaining this pattern of "I can hit you, but you can't hit me".

But the Wako obviously wouldn't let him get his wish. Originally, the Thousand Stone Ship was smaller than the Fu Boat, as the saying goes, "the boat is small and easy to turn around", and the flexibility is incomparable to the big ship of the Zheng sailor. Gradually within range of the Franco's cannons, the Japanese sailors expertly adjusted the sails and rudder to allow the Thousand Stone Ship to swim across the sea like a limp of steps. Zheng's gunners fired more than 20 cannons in a row, but none of them could hit, so angry that Xu Laosi shouted.

At the same time, the distance between the two ships was rapidly closing closer. The thousand-stone ship is going downwind, and the fortune boat is crosswind to the south, and the Japanese are originally stained with a lot of light; In order to be able to use the side to aim at the Senshi ship, Fufune had to turn slowly at sea, which was even more clumsy. In a short time, the distance between the two ships had been shortened to less than 30 zhang.

At this distance, Zhu Youzhen could already clearly see the Japanese on the opposite side. They numbered no more than twenty, all of them of short stature, their foreheads were shaved well, and the rest of their hair was tied back in a high bun. Looking at the body again, all of them were dressed in rags, but the swords on their waists were well-crafted sharp weapons at a glance.

At this moment, the eyes of these Japanese robbers radiated with greed and cruelty, and they let out a wild beast-like cry at the lucky boat. Although he spoke Japanese, Zhu Youzhen couldn't understand it, but when he thought about it, he knew that it was like "stop the ship and surrender".

Of course, Xu Laosi would not pay attention to these nonsense, but the fact that Qianshichuan caught up so quickly was still very unexpected to him. Seeing that none of the more than 20 cannons hit, Xu Laosi kicked the gunner away in a hurry and personally corrected the cannons.

Almost at the same time, there was a sudden sound as a burst of beans on the thousand-foot ship! The sailors on the ship were caught off guard, and in an instant, a large area was knocked down, and the entire deck was stained red with blood.

"Damn, they've got birds!" Xu Laosi leaned on the side of the boat to avoid the gunshots, and scolded angrily, "The rabbit cub is really far enough, you wait, Lao Tzu will let you taste the cannonball!" ”

By this time he had already aimed his guns at the Thousand Stone Ships, and because the two ships were so close to each other, the Furlong guns could almost fire flat. The ammunition had already been loaded, and Xu Laosi lit the fuse with his own hands, then covered his ears and hid aside.

"Boom!" I only heard a loud bang on the opposite side, and then the scream like a ghost crying wolf suddenly sounded, and this cannon hit the thousand-stone ship!

Zhu Youzhen was overjoyed, feeling that at such a close distance, he must have sunk the Japanese ship with one shot. However, when he looked closely, he found that the iron bullet from the Franc cannon only hit the right side of the ship, breaking the plank where it hit. When the sawdust flew, it stabbed and injured several of the nearest widows, but the damage suffered by the Thousand Stone Ship was extremely limited, and the ship still crashed into the Fortune Ship at an unabated speed!

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but sigh, thinking that it would be nice if this was a cannonball that could explode! It's a pity that this kind of solid iron lump, unless it can smash through the enemy ship, will not play much role in naval battles!

After the Sengoku ship was shot, the Japanese on it became even more like crazy demons, desperately shooting at the Fukubune with their bird guns. Although the soldiers on the Fu boat also had bird guns, they were usually negligent in training, and some of them couldn't even reload, and they were so pressed by the Japanese that they couldn't even lift their heads for a while, let alone fight back.

Seeing that the two ships were getting closer and closer, and the distance between them was less than three feet, suddenly the sky suddenly darkened, and the originally calm sea was like a boiling pot, and a fierce wave swelled much higher than the boat!

"Oh no, storm clouds are coming!" Li Zhenyan exclaimed.

Zhu Youzhen hurriedly looked up, only to see the vague black shadow in the distance just now, but at this time, it rose rapidly and expanded sharply, enveloping the entire sky. Looking up, the sky was still clear just now, but now it was full of black clouds as thick as ink, and formed the shape of a big hand, as if it was about to grab the two ships in the sea!

"Boom!"

The first lightning bolt was accompanied by a huge thunderclap, tearing apart the palpitating black curtain in an instant. Then there was thunder and lightning, and thousands of lightning bolts were like angry silver dragons, frantically waving their teeth and claws in the sky; And the huge thunder that can almost break the liver and gallbladder also makes people thoroughly appreciate the terrifying power of nature!

In a matter of moments, a fierce wind swept in with a torrential rain, enveloping the two ships in battle. The fortune boat is a big ship of 600 materials, and although the thousand-stone boat is slightly smaller, there are also 200 or 300 materials, but at this time they are like two light and fluttering leaves, easily thrown high by the huge waves to the top of the waves, and instantly fall to the bottom.

When he fell into the gap between the two huge waves, Zhu Youzhen was horrified to see that there were walls of water on both sides that were several feet high, and as long as they hit it, even the biggest boat would have to be crushed!

At this time, both ships stopped attacking each other, and the reason was simple, the storm had already left them with no time to take care of themselves! Xu Laosi pulled his neck and shouted hoarsely: "The Dragon Lord is angry, quickly lower the sail!" Hurry up and offer sacrifices to the dragon lord and ask Mazu to manifest! ”

The sailors approached the mast in order to put the sails away as quickly as possible, lest the wind blow over the ship. But one end of the sail is tightly tied to the top of the mast, and at this time the wind and rain are like knives, who can climb up?

In a hurry, Xu Laosi picked up a big axe and slashed at the mast. The mast shook twice, and was finally cut down by Xu Laosi. Then a gust of wind struck, and even the sails and masts were immediately swept into the vast sea, and disappeared in an instant.

Without the mast and sails, the ship was a little more stable. But as a result, the ship loses power, and even if it survives the storm, it will definitely not be able to move an inch on the sea when the storm is over. But the burning eyebrows looked at the front first, and Xu Laosi couldn't care so much.

Looking at the thousand-stone ship of the Japanese Kou, the situation is even more precarious. Their masts didn't need to be cut, they were blown off by the strong winds, and now, like the lucky ships, only the bare deck remained. Due to the smaller hull, the Thousand Stone Boat was jolting more violently in the waves, and it seemed that there was a danger of capsizing at any moment!

"Hahahaha!" Seeing this, Xu Laosi laughed wildly, "Dare to rob our Zheng family's ship, you will be punished!" ”

But his laughter did not stop, and suddenly more than ten iron cables made of stainless steel were thrown from the thousand-stone ship, and there was a steel hook at one end of the iron cable, which firmly hooked the side of the lucky ship!
