With the loss of two sails, the speed of the pirate ship suddenly slowed down, and it was impossible to catch up with the Fuchun in front of it.

The gods have appeared! Hu Quan jumped up happily, knelt on the stern tower with his hands folded, and thanked Guanyin Bodhisattva, the Buddha, the Taishang Laojun, and Mazu Niangniang, he thanked all the immortals.

"That pirate ship has its sails knocked off, and it can't catch up!" When Ren Siqi saw this scene, he immediately shouted loudly, he wanted to hit the morale of the pirates on the deck.

Sure enough, seeing the ship getting farther and farther away, the expectation in my heart suddenly came to naught, and the breath that I had struggled to support was suddenly discharged, and the remaining dozen pirates stopped fighting, turned around and ran to the side of the ship, they were about to jump back to their own ship.

"Don't let them run!" The crew shouted and chased them out, and the death of their companions made them angry, how could they let the pirates escape in vain.

Ren Siqi took the opportunity to fire a shot, and the projectile hit the back of an escaped pirate, who fell into the sea with a "poof".

The crew of the ship, led by Mao 18, pursued the pirate ship. A dozen pirates couldn't stand their ground, let alone escape in their ships, for the claws they had thrown earlier were still firmly holding the two ships together.

More than a dozen pirates had already been killed, and one by one they jumped into the sea.

With one enemy and three enemies, after a hard fight, the crew of the Fuchun finally won the final victory. One of the three pirate ships was sunk, one was hit by a Franco's cannon and its mast was broken and it was unable to move on the sea, and the third was captured.

But the crew was not happy at all, because the price they paid was too great. The total number of crew members who can still stand up at this moment is only thirty-one, and a full fourteen crew members died at the hands of pirates! Watching their companions die in front of them, every crew member was filled with sadness.

In the pirate cabin, only some fresh water and food were found, and nothing of value was at all, but it is understandable who would go out to rob and take a large sum of money with them?

Several crew members poured several barrels of tung oil on the cabin, deck, and sails of the ship, and they refused to leave it to the pirates because the Fuchun was now unable to take the ship with their men, and since they could not take it away, they burned it.

"There's another guy in the bilge!" When the crew member Xue Yu came to search the bilge, he accidentally found a person in the corner, with blonde hair, snow-white skin, a towering nose, and deep sunken eye sockets. The Franco-man was tightly tied up by the pirates and thrown in the bilge, and Xue Yulai untied the rope from his leg and pushed him to the deck.

It must have been a prisoner of the pirates, and the crew didn't think much of it, but since they saved him, they couldn't throw him into the sea again.

The torches ignited the sails and threw them onto the tung oil-soaked deck, and the crew climbed back to the deck of the Fuchun along the ropes, removing the claws hanging from the ship's side, and the two ships separated.

The flames spread across the sails, and soon turned into huge balls of fire, and soon the entire pirate ship was in flames.

In the distance, there was also a pirate ship with a broken mast parked on the sea, and the owner Fu Chun was reluctant to turn back and fight it. Just defeat the pirates, there's no need to kill them all!

On the deck, the corpses of pirates were carried and thrown into the sea, and since they chose the path of robbery on the crest of the waves, it was their fate to die in the sea.

The two crew members were about to walk towards the side of the ship carrying a corpse when they noticed that the corpse they were carrying in their hands was wriggling.

"There's still a living one!" One of the crew members shouted.

"Don't throw it yet!" Fu Chun, the owner of the ship, stopped them, "I'll ask them for their confessions later, and see which island they are from." ”

The two crew members put the living pirate on deck, and found strips of cloth to bandage his wounds, and they could not let him bleed to death if they had to ask for a confession. However, when the wounds were examined, the pirate was covered in bruises and blood, but he could not find the edge of the knife, as if he had been beaten alive with a wooden plank.

Of course, they didn't know that it was Xiong Er who beat the pirate like this, and this burly but cowardly guy still didn't have the ability to be ruthless in the end.

After throwing the pirates' corpses into the sea, the crew placed the bodies of their companions neatly on the deck and carefully wiped the blood from everyone's faces with a white cloth.

The remaining thirty-one crew members stood neatly on the deck, bowing deeply to their dead companions under the leadership of the shipowner Fu Chun.

The bodies of the crew members were lifted up and thrown into the sea. They are all men who work hard in the sea, they are all heroes who work the crest of the waves, and the sea is their final destination!

Their carcasses will soon be eaten by the fish, but their souls will drift home with the sea breeze!

In the end, Fu Bin and Mao Shibai personally carried the body of Qian Lun, the deputy of the treasury, to the side of the ship, and all the crew members looked at Qian Lun's body with complicated expressions. They may not like Qian Lun's gloom and don't like Qian Lun's miserliness and greed, but when Qian Lun is really dead, all the unhappiness of the past will go with the wind.

Ren Siqi carefully observed Fu Bin, wanting to see if he had a trace of guilt, but found that nothing could be seen on his face.

The Fuchun hoisted its sails and continued southward.

Ren Siqi stood at the stern of the ship, looking at the battlefield that was gradually moving away, looking at the pirate ship that had turned into a ball of fire, and his heart was full of emotion.

The waves on the sea are still there, and the brutal battle just experienced seems to be still in front of us. Vivid faces flashed in front of my eyes, and lives disappeared in front of my eyes. He had just killed two pirates, and he was almost killed by them! The cruelty of ancient warfare was displayed in front of him, but after carefully recalling it, Ren Siqi found that he was not much afraid of the battle, on the contrary, he was faintly excited in his heart.

After the agitated mood calmed down, Ren Siqi carefully recalled the whole battle process, which was his previous experience as a corporate executive, and constantly summing up lessons and lessons can make a person grow faster.

After thinking about it carefully, Ren Siqi found that the victory was too lucky. If it hadn't sunk the first pirate ship first, and if it hadn't happened to break the mast of the third pirate ship, the Fuchun would not have been able to win at all. As long as two pirate ships flanked each other, the number of pirates would outnumber the crew of the Fuchun, and no one would survive.

In terms of combat command, the owner Fu Chun has indeed rich experience in commanding battles, and he is worthy of being a hero who has worked hard at sea for more than 20 years. However, Ren Siqi couldn't figure out why he had to engage in broadside combat with pirates, and why he didn't equip some long-range weapons. Cannons may be hard to come by, but muskets and bows and arrows are not hard to get. If there were more than twenty muskets or bows and arrows on board, there was no way for a pirate to climb onto the deck easily. But there was only one bow in the whole Fuchun, and only one musket that was rusty and no one wanted to use. If there were more muskets, bows and arrows, how could the battle be so difficult?

In the end, Ren Siqi found that the cooperation between the crew of the Fuchun was very poor, everyone was fighting their own and could not form a joint force, and only Mao Shibai and a few of his former pirates had some sense of cooperation, of course, the enemies did not know how to cooperate, and everyone was half a catty.

In short, Ren Siqi summed up a lot of problems, maybe the owner Fu Chun also knows these problems, but there is nothing he can do, after all, everyone has a scripture that is difficult to read.
