Chapter 35: Fierce Battle of Chen Shengning

Another gong!

The lookout shouted, "Pirates! There is an ambush! It's Chen Shengning! ”

Li Tu's heart tightened and he looked forward. www.biquge.info Sure enough, behind the cliff of the island, two lucky ships full of pirates appeared in Li Tu's eyes. The two ships were quite large, with three floors on the water, about the same height as the Zaixing. One in the front and one in the back. On each ship, there were more than forty pirates armed with swords!

On the mast of the pirate ship, a large Chen flag fluttered high.

On the stern of the previous pirate ship, there were several pirate leaders, surrounded by a big leader in his thirties in the middle. This big leader is burly, with a shaved head, wearing a Ming-style mountain armor and holding a katana, which is obviously Chen Shengning, who is rampaging the sea off Zhangzhou.

Because it was ambushed behind the island, the pirates' ship was no more than a hundred feet away from the Zaixing. Seeing the Zaheung, seeing the Zaheung, who had fought with their own people, the pirates let out a burst of smug howls.

Although there is an ambush here, and the pirates will ambush other lone ships, what they hate most is the Zaiheung, which once killed their men.

Seeing the Zaixing, Chen Shengning pulled out his katana and raised the knife and howled loudly. Hearing the leader's howl, the pirates on both ships became excited. They shouted in unison, lowered their oars from the terrace, rowed desperately, and rushed towards the Zaixing at high speed.

Seeing the menacing pirate, the crew members were stunned and speechless.

Xiao Xiangui's face turned white, and he subconsciously took a step back, and said miserably: "It's over, I can't escape!" ”

Seeing the pirates ambushed behind the island, Li Tu only felt his blood rush to his brain, and shouted: "Start fighting!" ”

"All assemble on the terrace with cannons, bombs, and swords!"

Afraid that someone didn't hear his order, Li Tu shouted twice:

"All assemble on the terrace with cannons, bombs, and swords!"

"All assemble on the terrace with cannons, bombs, and swords!"

The way you fight with firearms is very different from how you fight with swords and slashes. This time, the matter of equipping firearms to resist Chen Shengning was carried out by Li Tuyi. For the knowledge of firearms, Li Tu is also far more than others. Therefore, before setting sail, Xiao Xiangui had already ordered the whole ship to hand over the command of the battle against the enemy to Li Tu.

Hearing Li Tu's shout, the crew seemed to have found the backbone and came back to their senses.

During the training, the assembly had been rehearsed many times, and although the crew was afraid, they still took up their weapons one after another and assembled neatly on the terrace. Even Xiao Xiangui, whose face was pale, ran into the tail building, took out his arquebus and bomb, and walked out with a long knife.

The chips have been all bet on Li Tu, and all he can do now is to watch the performance of this ship of firearms.

Including the owner, the chief manager, and the owner of the shop, thirty-four crew members lined up in a long line and stood on the terrace.

Li Tu stood in front of everyone and shouted: "Light the torch!" ”

According to the way they were training, Xu San and Wang Mazi walked out of the queue and lit the eight combat torches standing on the side guard of the ship with the torches brought out of the cabin.

Li Tu pulled out his long knife and shouted, "Ignite the torch!" ”

The crew went up in order and lit the arquebuses of the arquebuses on eight combat torches.

As soon as the arquebus was lit here, the pirate ship over there had already been forced to fifty feet away.

On the pirate ship, some of the pirates were the same pirates who suffered a loss at the hands of the Zaheung last time and were repelled by the Zaheung. Seeing the Zaixing this time, the pirates all howled excitedly. The howl reached the Zaixing, and it sounded extremely harsh.

Against those piercing howls, Li Tu calmly shouted, "Reload!" ”

The crew skillfully took out the tong, cleaned the chamber with the tong, took out the gunpowder and projectiles from the morning closing bamboo barrel and poured them into the barrel, tamped the projectiles and gunpowder with the tong, cleaned the primer tray, poured a small amount of gunpowder from the other side of the early closing bamboo barrel and loaded it into the primer tray, closed the primer disc valve, shook the primer pan to shake the ignition powder, blew off the gunpowder outside the primer tray, loaded the arquebus on the arquebus groove, pulled the trigger to check the position of the firing wire, and opened the primer disc valve.

The trained crew completed the reloading action in just eighteen seconds.

The pirates paddled their oars and drove over at high speed. A ship rushed ahead, no more than thirty zhang from the Zaixing. Another pirate ship was behind, about fifty feet away from the Zaixing.

A fierce battle was about to begin, and under the pressure, someone went wrong.

Seeing the roaring pirates, he was nervous and pressed the trigger on his own. The projectile shot out with a snap, and a white mist came out of the arquebus.

There was no aiming, nothing was hit.

Li Tu was annoyed in his heart, rushed up and kicked Hong Ba to the ground, and scolded loudly: "Who let you shoot without permission? ”

Hong Ba, who was lying on the ground, was anxious and afraid, dumbfounded and speechless.

Li Tu regained his command position, waved his knife and shouted, "Everyone! Aim! ”

The sailors held their breath and aimed at the pirates on the ship in front.

On the side of the Zaiheung, the pirates who were gradually pressing over were extremely arrogant, standing on the two-story terrace of the Fubune one by one, rowing loudly and loudly. The front of the ship is low and the back is high, and there is no shelter in front of the ship. Unbeknownst to these pirates, they were the best targets standing on the terrace.

Just waiting for the first ship of pirates to rush to the eighty paces away from the Zaixing, Li Tu waved his knife and shouted, "Shoot!" ”

"Pap" "Pap" "Papa"

A continuous stream of firing rang out, and thirty-three arquebuses fired a volley on the side of the ship, sending out a huge white mist.

Thirty-three projectiles burst through the air and rushed towards the howling pirates.

More than a dozen projectiles flew away and missed, while more than two dozen other projectiles hit the target.

The projectile that hit easily tore through the pirates' clothing, broke through their skin, and mercilessly burrowed into their bodies. Because of the uneven force, the projectiles pierced the pirates' bodies and swirled irregularly, tearing through the muscles and tearing apart the fragile human organs.

With a salvo, the opposite side was already full of flesh and blood, and eleven or two pirates fell. On the pirate ship that was still aggressive just now, the painting style changed abruptly.

In the midst of the screams one after another, the lucky ship was already bleeding all over the ground. There are pirates lying on the ground without saying a word, and there are also those who have broken arms and legs.

A pirate was broken by a projectile, blood sprayed two meters high, and the body lay straight in the arms of a pirate in the back, frightening the pirate behind him with a pale face and screaming.

One of the pirates had his arm broken, and he screamed loudly, scratching his arm among the corpses on the ground.

Blood kept flowing from the corpses of the dead pirates, and with the moans of the badly injured pirates, it was a human Shura field.
