Chapter 147: Revenge

There is a way that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, but a person who can really endure ten years before taking revenge is basically comparable to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Zhao Weiji is a person who will take revenge, of course he can endure it in order to take revenge, but let him endure it for ten years, he really can't do it, his favorite thing is undoubtedly an instant slap in the face.

So at this time, when he returned to the Black Pearl, his whole person entered a state of revenge.

And not only him, but all the crew members on the ship before were also in such a state of mind, and it was time for everyone to prepare for revenge, which was extremely high.

However, the interceptor did not know that they had provoked an unprovoked target, and that they did not kill the subject with a single blow when they were weak.

At this time, the other party had already changed their guns and drove an invincible battleship, and they were still looking for impossible people, books, and gold in the decoy merchant ship.

When the captain received a report from the crew that something strange was coming at them, he didn't pay much attention to it, and although he returned to the deck, his heart wandered on the ethereal collection of books and gold.

But his heart soon returned to his eyes, for when he returned to the deck, he was greeted not by the sea breeze and the sun, but by the whistling cannonballs.

Poof, poof. With a few loud bangs, the flagship of the fleet's commander-in-chief began to sink at such a speed that the captain, as commander-in-chief, could not understand what was happening.

At this time, the other sailors who had been on the merchant ship heard a loud explosion and immediately left the cabin of the merchant ship and went to the deck.

When they reached the deck, they saw that their flagship was slowly starting to sink with billowing smoke, and on the opposite side of the flagship was a monster-like ship.

The ship had a metal shell that shone in the sunlight. There were many windows on both sides of the hull, and the windows were full of black holes, and there was a lot of gunsmoke floating on the mouth of the cylinder.

"The Devil's Ship, it's really the Devil's Ship!!!" Suddenly, one of the crew members roared like crazy.

With this roar, more and more people began to associate the image of the ship in front of them with the image of the legendary devil's ship.

Although it is said that when the merchant ships bombarded the enemy ships with mortars, some of them mistook the merchant ships for the devil's ships, but later they were easily recognized, because the legendary devil's ship was invincible, and the ships it attacked undoubtedly survived.

Even if two ships flanked it together, if it was really a devil's ship, it shouldn't have been as simple as firing two shots and then slipping away.

But the monster-like ship in front of them at this moment fits exactly the legend's description of the devil's ship.

The hull of the ship is clad in metal, the ship has a smoking chimney, and the ability to sink enemy ships in an instant with magic, all of which fit the legend's description of the devil's ship.

"Don't panic, don't panic, what about the devil's ship, we have a lot of ships, the legendary devil's ship has never been against more than two ships at once, so we have a chance to defeat it."

Before the flagship was about to sink, the fleet commander broke away from the flagship and ran to another ship. When he got on board, he found that all the sailors on board were frightened by the appearance of what might have been the legendary devil's ship.

The commander understood that there was no way for such a soldier to continue fighting, so he immediately made a statement to stabilize the morale of the army.

I have to say that his speech had a very good effect, and after listening to his speech, the crew began to stabilize. Because the Commander captured one of the characteristics of the Devil's Ship lore, which was that it never defeated more than two pirate ships at the same time.

However, the reason why the legendary devil ship has never defeated more than two pirate ships at the same time is because the pirates did not give Zhao Weiji this chance.

Basically, pirates act alone on a single ship, and there are very few robbery in groups. The only time two or more pirate ships were defeated at the same time was when they faced Vikings, but the pirates who were basically defeated that time should have all died, so the legend of the Black Pearl has not been added to the legend again.

Everyone on Zhao Weiji's side knew that they could easily abuse the entire fleet on the other side, but the entire fleet on the other side didn't know about it.

At this moment, all of them rekindled their fighting spirit because of the commander's words, and vowed to put an end to the myth of the devil's ship.

Therefore, at this moment, the enemy fleet began to arrange the battle formation again, hoping to quickly approach the Black Pearl, in a vain attempt to board the ship and attack.

Seeing that the opposite side did not fall into panic because he instantly sank a ship on his side, but tried to counterattack in vain, Zhao Weiji smiled, and he smiled very happily.

Because he didn't want to just sink a ship when he came back to take revenge, he wanted to sink all the ships that intercepted him.

If the other party escaped, his wish might not be realized, but now the other party actually regrouped in a single attempt to attack, so that he could sink all the ships on the other side.

And at this time, not only he smiled happily, but all the Black Pearl crew members smiled happily, they were in the same mood as Zhao Weiji, that is, if you want revenge, you have to be thorough.

It's just that although they laughed happily and laughed loudly, the scholars on the ship were completely unaware of the current situation.

In their opinion, they had already escaped the pursuit at that time, so they should retreat, why did they turn around and come back after changing a ship and continue to trouble these enemies.

After fighting in the desert, these scholars also realized why they were attacked, and they also understood why they were intercepted when they went out to sea.

Although the scholars have been in the temple for many years, they are not fools who have turned a blind eye to what is going on outside the window, they know the current situation of the entire empire, and they also know that the sea power of the hostile forces should not be underestimated.

But they don't know why Zhao Weiji still has the courage to turn around and come back again.

While all the scholars were still wondering, one of them suddenly spoke, for this man had the good fortune to see how the Black Pearl had sunk the other party's flagship.

"Which of you can see clearly how our side sank the other party's ship just now? What exactly is that weapon? ”

"Weapons? Isn't it magic? This ship seems to be very similar to the legendary devil ship, and the legendary devil ship is not all using magic to attack pirates. When the man asked the question, it was not long before objections followed.

"Magic? You're stupid at reading. I agree with Abdullah that it's a weapon, a very powerful weapon. ”

Hearing that someone agreed with his point of view, the man named Abdullah just now said happily: "Ibn still understands that those who are engaged in translation and literary studies do not understand anything. ”

It turned out that the two scholars, Abdullah and Iben, were engaged in natural science research similar to those of later generations, and the one who objected to the idea that it was magic was an official translator, mainly in the humanities.

At this time, faced with such a situation, these people who study natural sciences are naturally all excited, because since they entered this ship, too many new things have been displayed in front of them, and many of them are incomprehensible.

This made these scholars who volunteered to study natural sciences in Xinhuacheng more and more firmly believe that their choice was not wrong.

At this time, they all got together and began to study the Black Pearl, completely ignoring the fact that the outside world was still fighting.

The humanities scholars, who were completely speechless, ignored the science maniacs and turned their gaze back to the ocean outside the cabin.

Just as they looked back, they suddenly felt a tremor of distance, the same as before the sinking of the local ship just now, and the tremor was even stronger.

It turned out that the Black Pearl had fired again, and this time the guns on both sides of the ship were firing at the same time.

The reason why the artillery on both sides was used at the same time was because after the other side reorganized the formation, it sent two ships out at the same time in a vain attempt to attack the Black Pearl.

These two ships were the same ones that had flanked merchant ships before, but let them run away.

When the two ships came out of each other's fleet, they were surprised to find that the Black Pearl did not move at all, did not move forward, did not retreat, but just drifted with the flow, and the most odious thing was that even the smoke from the chimney was gone, and the sails on the mast were also folded.

At this time, of course, the enemy will not simply think that the Black Pearl has disarmed and surrendered, they think that the Black Pearl's inaction is completely an insult and ridicule to them.

So the two ships drove over without thinking about it, and formed a two-sided attack again, but the Black Pearl at this time was not a small ship with only one mortar like a merchant ship.

The Black Pearl was covered with gun ports on both sides, and two enemy ships actually surrounded the Black Pearl from both sides, which was basically hitting the gun ports.

Therefore, when the encirclement of the two ships was formed, Zhao Weiji decisively ordered the cannon.

After a violent artillery bombardment, the two warships, which had been damaged by the previous mortar attack, were completely beaten into honeycomb coal at this time.

The crew, who had been lucky enough to escape the shelling in the bilge, was soon swallowed up by the rushing water, and the crew who tried to escape through the boat on deck found that even the boat that had escaped had been wrecked at the same time.

The two ships sank in amazement to the stunned crews of the other enemy ships, and all the crew on board were scattered across the sea, at the lap of the waves.

"Captain, what should I do? Can we still fight? A reacting crew member asked his ship.

But he did not wait for the captain's positive answer, because by this time the captain's mouth could not be closed.
