Chapter 0516: Wheat Dominates the Middle

After a protracted and arduous bargaining, Huxi's negotiations with Rose Shark came to an end, and the main points of the agreement were:

1. All surrenders: The Islamic pirates led by the Rose Shark all surrendered to the island. They now have 30 pirate ships, and after blowing up 2, there are 28; There are also 30 pirate ships in their anchorage and pirate base, and a total of 58 pirate ships have all surrendered. After surrendering, they will hand over all the treasures accumulated by the old nest for generations of robbery, about 10 million taels of gold and other jewelry and valuables.

2. Legal status: All Cypriot Defectors can hold the Sai Island Blue Card and enjoy the same treatment as other Sai Islanders.

3. Special work: Because thousands of their crew members are hereditary pirates, they like the sea, are not used to land life, and are not used to farming life; And because they had been robbed many times by stronger people in the past in land and sea trade, they applied to the country of Saibu Ruth and obtained permission to engage in a controlled, just, moderate, and purposeful maritime anti-plunder and anti-piracy maritime law enforcement and security career in the name of "privateer coast guards" in the future.

4. Advance to the East: The Sai Islanders are responsible for lifting 48 pirate ships from the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea, and their future construction sites or battlefields are the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aden, the Persian Gulf, the Gulf of Oman, the Arabian Gulf, and the Indian Ocean. The remaining ships were mixed with Catholic pirate ships to form the Mediterranean "Privateer Coast Guard", which headed west through the Strait of Gibraltar and out of the Mediterranean.

5. Observation team: The island sends a ten-man observation team to each pirate ship to monitor the behavior of the pirate ship and provide medical, navigation, communications, and chart support.

6. Orderly expansion: The nest of Islamic pirates is in the village of Datca in Turkey, from a geographical point of view, it is called the Datca Peninsula, which is a narrow peninsula with a length of 35 kilometers from east to west and a width of less than 8 kilometers from north to south, more than 30 kilometers to the south, that is, Rhodes Island, and about 40 kilometers to Marmaris. The two sides will draw up a development plan in this regard.

7、……

If this treaty is implemented more leniently, then the pirate will still be a pirate, and he will be whitewashed, and he will become a licensed pirate, and he will never fail to suffer, because there is a team of ten people to support himself!

If this treaty is implemented strictly, then pirates going to sea is going to sea, anyway, the island has a comprehensive guarantee, and they are not hungry or frozen, and they are also very happy. This treaty is actually very beneficial to the majority of small pirates, because although they are very rich, the leaders usually spend a lot of money, and the small pirates spend a lot of money. Now, it is equivalent to buying all the money for the benefits of the island, and this benefit is basically the same for the big and small pirates, doesn't this mean that the little pirates take advantage of the big pirates? So, the vast number of little pirates rejoiced and smiled.

The vast number of little pirates are happy, but one of them is very depressed, who? Iron Fox! Iron Fox He didn't like to be recruited, he knew that today, the lame bear had changed from a single pendulum to a double pendulum, and he was no longer suitable to make a living at sea; Rose shark, a woman, as long as she has a good home, she will definitely be good. And he is in the prime of life, it is a good time to do a career and fight the world, how can he be willing to be recruited easily? However, he also knew that the few little witches in front of him were not easy to get along with, and if they were offended, they could blow people away with a wave of their hands. So, in the open, he nodded and bowed, groveling, and very obedient; Secretly, a big conspiracy is brewing.

The Iron Fox has seen the power of these Cypriots, and it is definitely a dead end to fight them; Besides, even if all our pirate ships don't surrender, 60 ships will pounce on us at once, and it is estimated that the little girl will be able to calm us down in half an hour. So, after thinking about it, Iron Fox came up with a poisonous plan. He was going to go back to his lair quietly with everyone, and then when Rose Shark was talking to the others and then asking for gold and silver treasures to be loaded on the ship, on the one hand, he asked himself and his ships to decorate more valuable treasures; On the other hand, the news that their own pirates were going to surrender and that they had a large amount of property to be transferred to the islands and the time and route of the transfer were disseminated to some pirates of great power, and the main objects of the dispersion were some pirates on the Dodecanese Islands in the south of the Datca Peninsula, occupy the island as king. The pirates here are the Pirates of Karpathos, the Pirates of Castellolizo, the Pirates of Cassos, the Pirates of Patmos, the Pirates of Astipalea, the Pirates of Lips, the Pirates of Nissyros, the Pirates of Tiros, the Pirates of Rhodes and the Pirates of Kos. The pirates of Rhodes are the most powerful Catholic pirates here, followed by another group of Catholic pirates on Pigaja, 26 kilometers away from 7 o'clock in Rhodes.

The Iron Fox has calculated, we are such a big piece of fat, and it is a heavy load, the other pirates will definitely be red-eyed, as soon as they come to rob, the two sides will definitely have a big fight, and they can sneak out of the battlefield in the chaos and go to the world on their own. Iron Fox thought, you Cypriots are powerful, but it happened suddenly, and when the time comes, it will be difficult to defeat four fists with both hands, and the Seijians will deal with the robbers, and you will contain each other, so that I can slip away.

Islamic pirates sailed from the port of Bozburun (Bozburun) in the mountains of the Datca Peninsula in Turkey at the junction of the Mediterranean Sea and the Aegean Sea, Bozburun is a small harbor with beautiful scenery, surrounded by dense pine forests, the air exudes a charming ** smell, this is a good environment, and extremely hidden, not very noticeable, but the foot is very convenient, land and sea are available, and the nearby natural harbor is everywhere, the sea conditions are very complicated, so, here is a good stage for robbery and anti-robbery. The port of Bozburun, although it does not have a very wide sandy beach, does have shallows. The most enchanting aspect of the port of Bozbrunn is the view of the Central Mediterranean Sea under the shade of many towering cliffs. To the north is the Aegean Sea, to the south is the Mediterranean Sea, to the west is the water where the Mediterranean Sea meets the Aegean Sea, and to the east is the West Asian continent.

The center of power in the pirate lair was Datca, a large village after the harbor of Bozbrunn. The village is picturesque, and the pirates have carved out the land as a place to enjoy themselves, as if it were a small kingdom. Here, they replenish, recuperate, self-govern, and pass on their ancestry. There are quite a few olives, almonds, orchards and vegetables.

Twelve days later, one day, the weather was fine, calm and sunny, and in the area where the Mediterranean Sea meets the Aegean Sea on the northern side of the central Mediterranean, 58 pirate ships of Islamic pirates, laden with gold and silver treasures, ate heavily in deep water, and sailed slowly on the voyage to the island. From the port of Bozbrunn to the island, it is only five or six hundred kilometers by sea. Although there are many thieves along the way, and skeleton flags can be seen flying everywhere, today's rose shark is bigger, and it is not a soft persimmon itself, and here, he is also one of the most ruthless characters; What's more, from now on, I will be flying the flag of the island. Now the island of Cyprus, the rumor of its witchcraft has spread all over the Mediterranean, the prestige of Queen Ruth has been widely known, ordinary people no longer dare to look up to the island, the name of Hudong is even more terrifying. Therefore, the rose shark has no fear, relying on its own Seiji, hanging the flag of Saiji, looking at the new life in front of it, and chatting easily, ready to start a new life.

In order to avoid confrontation with many pirates on the small islands of the Dodecanese Islands, the fleet avoided the pirates on the small island 60 kilometers away from 6 o'clock in the south direction, the pirates on the small island 40 kilometers away from the 7 o'clock direction, and the pirates on the small island 50 kilometers away from the 8 o'clock direction, but passed through the northern strait of Rhodes Island to the island, the strait is 18 kilometers wide, the iron fox said I will go to investigate, come back and say, there is no problem, it is safe, rest assured and boldly take this sea route!

The always witty and clever Rose Shark was sold by the Iron Fox, and the problem that should be okay has become a problem, and it is a big problem. The observation post sitting on the mast reported that in front of our Rose Shark fleet, a long line of snakes had been spotted, and a row of 400 pirate ships of the same tonnage as themselves had blocked the sea, each ship only about 50 meters apart. There is also a cluster of 100 ships behind, ready to pounce on the fiercest part of the battle at any moment.

When the rose shark heard the news, he was shocked, thinking about it, it shouldn't be, we have surveyed it beforehand; Besides, we're flying the flag of the island!

Blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not singular. The countermeasures of the rose shark to advance or retreat have not yet been decided, and the observation post sitting on the mast has reported again, and in the rear of our fleet, there is also a long snake formation outflanking its own tail, and it is also 400 pirate ships of the same tonnage as themselves, with an interval of 50 meters, and behind the long snake is a cluster of 100 ships, which is obviously the strength of this fleet. In this way, the rose shark was wrapped in dumplings and was wrapped in the sea at a distance of 18 kilometers from north to south and 8 kilometers from east to west. So, now the east and west directions, that is, the front and rear directions of the fleet, are blocked by the two long snake formations, so, north and south? To the south is the line between Diagoras and Port Rhodes at the northern tip of Rhodes, and is the main area of activity for pirates in Rhodes. The north side is full of cliffs, and you can't go ashore, and you can't afford to go ashore, and you have the wealth that your own group of pirates have accumulated over hundreds of years, and you can give it away? No way!

The rose shark turned its head to stare at the ten-person observation team sent by the island on the ship, the meaning of the rose shark is very clear, don't you behave very strong and powerful on the beach of the island? With a stroke of the hand and a wave of the hand, the distant ships can burn and explode by themselves, and kill themselves. Now that the enemy is surrounding us, you can go up and wave!

This time, the 58 ten-person teams sent by the 58 pirate ships on the island were led by Mai Ba and Geng Haoshan, and the two small heads of the team were on the flagship of the Rose Shark, and each of their ten-person teams was composed of a group leader, a signal soldier, a newspaper soldier, a health soldier, a women's army, and four grenadiers. Mai Ba and Geng Haoshan checked and felt that today's situation was not good. Now, there are 1,000 pirate ships in front of and behind them. You know, this is a civilian pirate ship, not a military ship of the state. Therefore, the number of 1,000 pirate ships is very exaggerated, which is almost more than six or seven percent of the pirates on the small islands of the Dodecanese archipelago combined. Obviously, this is a carefully chosen ambush site for the enemy, and he has remorsefully slipped into the big pocket set up by the pirates. Obviously, at a glance of this situation, we must have leaked the news here, and those who heard the news had already premeditated. Obviously, today's enemies are determined to win, and looking at their fierce and murderous appearance, it is really good people who do not come, and those who come are not good! Today, Harvard's aircraft carriers, big ships, and ironclad ships have not come, and the big and small monsters have not come, imagining that these pirates have always robbed others, but I didn't expect to be hacked and eat black dumplings today, and today's battle is hard! It's hard to fight!

As soon as Mai Ba's signal for help flew to the command center on the island, Hu Xi was taken aback, he was negligent, the pirates had belonged for hundreds of years, and a huge fortune, how could no one calculate? Immediately, a plan, leaving three cement steamers and big monsters to guard the island, aircraft carriers and ironclad ships attacked, the aircraft carrier was a little slower, and it carried 18 airships from the island to the west and went straight to Rhode Bay! The ironclad ship was fast, so it carried a small monster and 2 airships from the southern tip of Rhodes Island to outflank it, preparing to detour to the west entrance of Rhodes Bay, and attack these robbers from the east and west with the aircraft carriers.

It is more than 400 kilometers from Sai Island to Rhodes Bay, and it takes more than 500 kilometers to detour from the south of Rhodes Island', and the speed of the ironclad ship is 30 knots, so it takes nine hours for the rescue team to arrive.

Now, Mai Ba in Rhodes Bay ordered: first, the telegraph soldiers of his own flagship should contact the command center on the island, and the 57 telegraph soldiers of the other ships should listen to our unified deployment; second, that all the 58 ships were connected end to end, and that they formed an oblate formation in the Gulf of Rhodes, and that the oblate circle had been rotating counterclockwise, so that the pressure could be evenly balanced; Third, all the women's troops and grenadiers stand on the outside of the flat circle, and put the enemy to 50 meters away and serve with javelins; Fourth, if the situation is pressing and the battle situation is unfavorable, you must destroy the transmitter, sniper bow, javelin, and chain ball before you can become a benevolent; Five......

Hu Xi thought, it will take him twelve hours to arrive at the scene, what if Mai Ba can't stand it? Hurry up and order the airships and mobs on the aircraft carriers and ironclad ships to pounce on the war zone first. For a while, 20 airships and a small monster in the sky swarmed towards 10 o'clock in the west, looking up, it was spectacular. Hu Xi thought, Maiba, you must resist it, our aircraft will arrive in an hour or two. You have to resist it!

Now in Rhodes Bay, 58 40-meter-long pirate ships of Rose Sharks are 10 meters away from each other, and the fleet has formed a perfect circle with a length of 3,500 meters and a diameter of 1,100 meters, and has begun to rotate. Maiba's tactics are that because this Rhodes Bay is 18,000 meters wide, the enemy can completely surround us in groups, and we can't squeeze together, only by holding it out, can we give full play to our strength in long-range strikes. Then why is there a gap of 10 meters between the bow and tail of this pirate ship, this gap is reserved for a particularly fierce enemy, if the enemy can rush in front of us, we must also use the chain ball to drive him away, and resolutely do not engage in broadside combat, so that the enemy ship slides into our circle, and the other string of our ship is concentrated to clean it up.

At present, 1 and a half kilometers in the east and west directions of the perfect circle of 58 pirate ships of the Rose Shark, 500 enemy ships are under consideration. Because previously after the "Roman default". Hu Dong's "Drizzle", "Undefeated in the East", "Monster Appearance", "Classic Naval Battle", "Four Heavenly Kings", "Witchcraft Emerges", "Thriller Again" and Hu Xi's "Divine Marksmanship" and Eighteen Kinds of Martial Arts are too powerful and shocking. For such gods, witches, demons and monsters, no one dares to offend any more. However, the 58 Islamic pirate ships in front of him were originally pirates like themselves, but now they have been arrested and surrendered, sold themselves to take refuge, and have become Seijians. But it's not that you become a Saijian, and you will immediately have the skills of Saiji, bullying you to be alone today, and the big ships and monsters on Saidao are not there, black eats black, and swallows you first. Now, the other party has put it in his pocket and is waiting for the end, but be careful, you see, why did the other party set up a circle array? This shows that the other party knows that he is surrounded by the front and back; This also shows that the other party does not want to advance or retreat for a while, so he wants to resist stubbornly in the same place; This also shows that today the other party has made mistakes again and again, first coaxing the news that leaked *, and now deciding on a wrong countermeasure. If you form a solid phalanx, then we will jump out of the tent and fight each other, and there will be a war of attrition! Now that you are strung together in a circle, how loose you are, and I have many ships, and I surround them and besiege them one by one, won't you all die?

In fact, Mai Ba and the enemy commander's ideas have their own reasons. Mai Ba insisted on using his own strengths to overcome the enemy's shortcomings, and insisted on using medium and long-range weapons to keep the enemy out of a safe distance. The commander of the enemy army is the traditional combat concept, I am close to you, take the broadside, jump the shed, fight, win the few, and bully the weak with the strong. Therefore, in this battle, who wins and who loses in the end is to see who can implement their own tactical ideas and drag the other side into their own quagmire.

Now, the enemy ships are only about 1 kilometer away from the circle of the pirate ships of the Rose Shark. These corsair ships can reach speeds of more than 6 knots at full speed and can reach about 8 knots on an instantaneous impact. At a distance of 1,000 meters, it was impossible to break through at a speed of 8 knots, and they started at 6 knots.

A total of 1,000 ships on the east and west sides of the enemy ships are now regrouped, and the original long snake formation has been changed into a large pocket formation, and they have compiled a large circle with a diameter of 3,100 meters, and at an average speed of 6 knots, they have collided with the 1,100-meter circle in the sac from the four directions of southeast, south, and northwest.

Mai Ba gave an order when the enemy ship was activated, asking the Lady Army to shoot down the observers on the mast of the enemy ship with a sniper bow! For a while, the crossbow arrows flew, and these women's soldiers, who were used to fighting seabirds, had no problem shooting people, so after the first rain of arrows, 116 observers fell from the mast. The old man falls, and the new man makes up for it. But before the new observers of these ships could be arranged, the second rain of arrows of the women's army came again, and another 116 observers were "laid off". Then, in the third shower of arrows, 116 observers were eliminated again. The sniper bow could be wound twice a minute and fired twice, so that in four and a half minutes there were nine shots, and 522 observers fell from the mast. As a result, more than half of the 1,000 enemy ships encircling the Rose Shark fleet were waiting to be filled by replacements. In this way, the speed of 1,000 enemy ships will be gone, and they will have to wait for a while, and they will wait until the observers are in place on the mast before they move, because if there are no far-sighted observers, in the melee, there will be no concept of the overall situation, and they will lose their command, and they will be easily left alone, and they will be eaten by others. The enemy ships were so delayed and prepared that they stopped at a distance of 60 meters from the Rose Shark.

If you stop and I don't stop, it is easier for the Lady Army to strike at the observers on the stopped enemy ships, so after a few minutes, there are no more observers on the enemy ships. At the same time, because the enemy ship was only 60 meters away from his own distance, Mai Ba waved his hand, and 232 javelins of 232 grenadiers shot, these javelins were all high-explosive meat javelins, 60 meters small, all hit the enemy ship, and there was a loud noise on the enemy ship! There is an explosion! There is a fire! There is smoke! There are fragments! There is killing! There is bloodshed! There is death!

The European pirates of this era were not even very useful with bows and arrows, they just rammed into each other's ships, and slashed with knives, similar to the infantry on land. They didn't know that a bow and arrow could shoot that far, so they were speechless when the first rain of arrows could make their observers fall off their masts. Originally, on the pirate ship, the post on this mast is the safest, and when fighting, he does not contribute, unless the whole ship is destroyed, he can survive to the end, but this mast work is not for dogs and cats. Many of the masts are still the captain himself, no matter how bad they are, they are also the third or fourth leaders on the ship. Today, the division is unfavorable, and there has not been any gains, and a group of key and important figures on their own side have hanged up, which is very ominous.

Now, after being attacked by a round of high-explosive javelins, the arrogance of these ships has subsided considerably. They have never seen firearms, at most they are mixed with sulfur and throw them around, this kind of thing is useful in the army, pirates don't use it, they can't afford it, at this time the price of sulfur in Europe is quite high, and this thing is not very powerful, throw it into the cabin, you go up and put out the fire, won't it be fine? But this high-burning javelin is too super, trembling and flying over, and it is miserable enough to pierce it. It will also blow up! Will burn! The sudden loud noise at the beginning had already startled these pirates who had not opened their eyes, and the subsequent explosion injured many people. It's important to fight fires and save people!

The grenadiers were able to throw almost once a minute, and when the enemy ships were dazed in the first blow, a second round of javelins was thrown, and 232 javelins took care of the other 232 enemy ships. It's 232 loud bangs again! 232 Flames! 232 heaps of chaos! 232 pieces crying! 232 tragic scenes!

The commander of the enemy ship looks bad, the other party has the help of the Seissan, the witch, and the magic weapon, and it is not good to get close, so quickly retreat and retreat to a safe distance.

The enemy's target is a ship, and the target is large, so the hit rate is not a problem, so the javelin can drive them up to 120 meters away; And the crossbow arrows of the Women's Army can have a range of 2,000 meters, so after a few observers who climbed the mast with shields were also shot down by the Women's Army, who were accustomed to shooting seabirds, with three arrows and three salvos, now these enemy ships simply did not send people to the mast, but climbed the dragon's head on the bow of the ship, and the bare pole dried up the board.
