Chapter 573: Another Warning
Perhaps it was because they had not operated the machine gun for a long time, and the Nanyang sailors were a little unfamiliar with this powerful weapon, and the cannon body shook at the moment of firing, and the line of fire suddenly rose a little. These slight elevations caused all the machine shells that had been poured on the bow cannon emplacements to hit the mainmast in the middle of the ship, and the mainmast was blown off when it landed, and the sails fell to the hull, and after a round of heavy fire, the gunpowder magazine of the ship was also hit and exploded, and the severed arms and limbs of the bandits fell into the sea along with the debris of the debris, and the entire cabin of the ship was destroyed, floating lifelessly on the surface of the river like a dead fish.
After solving the big threat of the gunboat and the water bandits, the "Lin's machine gun" at the No. 2 machine gun position fired fire at the small sampan that was about to turn the rudder and flee when it saw that the situation was not good, and the rain of bullets that poured out quickly covered the target in white smoke and blood mist. When the gunfire stopped, all that remained of the sampan was the wreckage of the ship's planks and a dozen mutilated limbs floating on the surface of the river with a large pile of blood.
The ranks of the bandit ships were completely disrupted and fell into chaos, the morale of the bandits completely collapsed, and they began to race for their lives, and some of the panicked bandit boats even collided together, which further aggravated the chaos. The machine gun shooters of the "Weijing" calmly carried out their shooting, destroying one ship after another, while the sailors on the deck, under the command of the Marine Corps officers, fired continuously with platoon guns. Although Lin Yiqing's men all used revolvers, they were not shot and their guns were killed, and in a short time, the surrounding rivers of the "Weijing" were full of broken wreckage and the corpses of the water bandits who had been killed.
The boat of a water bandit leader was also destroyed, and Lin Yiqing saw that the bandit leader was no longer as vicious and rampant as he was just now, and he was half of his body in the water. Hands held high. There was a terrified look on his face. Obviously, under the blow of the machine gun just now, the spirit has completely collapsed.
"Stop shooting!" Lin Yiqing ordered loudly.
Although he was not the captain of the ship, at this time, Lin Yiqing's order was obeyed by everyone, and soon, the gunfire stopped.
The sailors of the "Weijing" and Lin Yiqing's subordinates all stopped firing, and the remaining wounded and undead sailors looked at the gunboat opposite in horror, not knowing what had happened.
"Collect heads." Lin Yiqing looked at the river that was stained red with blood. Said coldly.
The sailors on the "Weijing" did not understand the meaning of Lin Yiqing's words for a while, but Lin Yiqing's subordinates knew very clearly, they roared, drew their long knives one after another, and jumped out of the side of the ship.
The officers and men of the "Weijing" were all stunned when they saw this scene.
The ninjas dodged and jumped onto the broken planks of the ship, slashing off the heads of the undead bandits one by one and throwing them onto an unsunken wooden boat, where the wounded bandits let out a terrible wail and some tried to pick up their knives and guns to resist. But where they were the ninjas' opponents, all the people on the ship saw was the glittering light of the sword, the vigorous figures, and the flying blood.
"The dog officer surnamed Peng! You fucking tricked Lao Tzu into doing this fucking deal! Lao Tzu is a terrible ghost and will not let you go! - "One of the bandits screamed before his head was cut off.
Lin Yiqing heard this. In his heart, he knew that this time it was Peng Yulin who instructed the bandits to intercept and attack the "Weijing", but Peng Yulin did not expect that when these bandits happened to intercept a merchant ship, they would encounter them and command the "Weijing" to destroy them.
Lin Yiqing didn't look at the battle situation anymore (because there was no suspense anymore), but turned around and walked quickly off the flybridge and came to the cabin.
What worries him most now is the power of the "Weijing."
At this time, the stokers in the cabin were adding coal to the hearth, Lin Yiqing could feel that the main engine of the "Weijing" was running like crazy, he heard that the main engine was running normally, and he was relieved.
Out of the engine room, Lin Yiqing came to the deck of the "Weijing", and at this time the tide had already risen, and he saw that the sailors were lowering the steam sampan, and knew that the officers planned to take advantage of the high tide to use this small steamer to drag the "Weijing" out of the shallows.
Under the towing of the small steamer and the full speed reversal of the main engine, the "Weijing" finally broke out of the shallows and turned around and headed for the green-headed merchant ship. Lin Yiqing immediately ordered the statistics of losses and casualties. The sailors were busy helping the wounded.
The statistics soon came out, and in this fierce battle, the hull of the "Weijing" had several bullet damage, but none of them were heavy. Under the gunfire of the bandits, 11 sailors of the "Weijing" were wounded, two of them were relatively seriously injured, but after rescue, they were out of danger, and Lin Yiqing's men did not suffer any casualties.
And in this battle, the bandit side can be said to have suffered heavy losses, more than a dozen water bandit boats were all sunk, and almost more than 100 people were directly killed, not counting those who were struggling in the water and were beheaded by the ninjas.
The "Weijing" approached the merchant ship, whose mast was broken by a cannonball fired by the bandits, and the ship was in a state of utter and miserable. The people of the merchant ship all came to the deck at this time, cheering and saluting the brave Nanyang steam gunboat in front of them. Many people on the merchant ship bowed and thanked the "Weijing," and some of them wept bitterly when they looked at the red and gold dragon tooth flag on the mast.
On the deck of the bow of the merchant ship, an old man in a robe and a horse coat looked at the flybridge of the "Weijing," lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt down with a solemn face, and solemnly bowed three times. When the officers on the ship saw this, they all hugged their fists in salute.
Lin Yiqing looked at this strange scene and sighed in his heart.
The "Weijing" stopped next to the merchant ship, and the sailors lowered their sampans and went to the rescue of the merchant ship. Since the merchant ship's mast had been broken and it could not be moved, Lin Yiqing ordered the "Weijing" to tow the merchant ship to the temporary dock on the shore.
"Lord, the heads are all collected." A ninja came to Lin Yiqing's side and reported, pointing to the river.
Lin Yiqing looked in the direction he pointed, and saw two small boats parked on the river, the boats were full of human heads, there were more than a hundred of them, and the small boats were originally very light under the impetus of the river, but after loading these many heads. Then he became extremely calm. The river rushes in. Just swaying there slightly.
"Very good, you have worked hard, just as the ship has landed, send these heads to 'Peng Da Tie'." Lin Yiqing said.
"Yes!"
In a short time, the ninjas carried more than 100 heads of the bandits to the shore in small boats, loaded them with four bags of hemp, threw them into a carriage, and galloped off into the distance.
in the cabin. Under the rescue of the ship's medical officer, Xu Chuanlong had already woken up, he heard that there was no longer the sound of guns and guns outside the window, and he straightened up and looked out of the porthole, and immediately saw the dark red and the river full of broken wood and corpses, and he couldn't help but have a black eye.
"All the brothers on the 'Weijing' ship this time, you have worked hard! You not only saved the lives of the merchant marines, but also exterminated this bandit, and made a great contribution! Lin Yiqing's loud voice came from outside, "The emperor gave me a special performance." I should play the emperor and ask for credit for you! Not a single brother on this 'Weijing' ship will be left behind! ”
listened to Lin Yiqing's words. Xu Chuanlong's heart couldn't help but chuckle.
"Lord Schelling!"
"I saw Lord Lin's ability today! The little ones are fortunate to be able to kill the enemy with Lord Lin, and they have no regrets in this life! ”
"Lord Schelling!"
"Lord Lin, our brothers will listen to you in the future!"
Xu Chuanlong listened to the words of his subordinates, and his heart was mixed for a while.
"Either way, or not...... My net worth and life will also be in your hands......" Xu Chuanlong sighed and said silently in his heart.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
The scorching sun was scorching, and in front of Peng Yulin's mansion, the two housekeepers were standing guard under the eaves, and they couldn't stop wiping the sweat on their faces with their hands.
It is actually very hard to be an errand for Master Peng.
A horse-drawn carriage drove quickly through the street, kicking up a cloud of smoke and dust in the distance.
Because of the hot weather, there were few pedestrians on the street, but the speed of this carriage was too fast, and the pedestrians on the street retreated one after another.
The carriage came to the door of Peng's mansion at a gallop, and the two family members were drowsy from the sun, but they were startled by the sudden appearance of the carriage, and their mood immediately became very bad.
"Hey, hey, hey! Do you have long eyes? Don't you see where this is? I don't let you park casually! A housekeeper stepped forward and asked.
The men in the carriage turned a deaf ear to the shouts of the housekeepers, and when they had parked the carriage, they jumped out of the carriage, dragged sacks out of the carriage, and threw them on the ground.
"Hey! The eyes didn't grow, and the ears didn't grow, did they? This is in front of Lord Peng's house! How dare you dogs unload the goods here, believe it or not, I even split the goods for you? ”
