The moon obscured by the dark clouds, the dark night and the mist, everything seemed too perfect, and the deck of the brightly lit Madame Rice was long gone, and no one wanted to stay on the deck on this damp and cold night to blow the cold wind.

The Tarzan swept across the sea like a black ghost, and on the first deck, four hundred commandos armed with rifles and short guns were ready to go, and everyone looked very nervous, and many of them would unconsciously touch their waists or arms.

Before the surprise attack, Lin Haijiang gave a heavy reward of 100 pounds to each sailor who captured the ship, as the so-called heavy reward must have a brave man, if it were not for Lawrence to limit the number of 400 people, I am afraid that the whole ship would have to rush to participate, and the positive surname of the people allowed Lin Haijiang to verify the true meaning that money can make the devil grind.

However, these 400 people are also the limit that Lin Haijiang can take out! It's an existential gamble!

When the Tarzan and the Lady Rice came to the side, both warships shook greatly! The unprepared sailors in the cabin or on the lower deck of the Madame Rice suddenly fell in large swaths, and for a moment the shouting and scolding rang out.

The assault team on the Tarzan began to quickly cross the gang according to the pre-divided team, and since the general layout of the Tarzan and the Lady Rice was basically the same, they were also particularly handy in attacking, and directly captured the bridge when the upper deck did not react at all.

The influx of sailors along the four passages to the left and right sides of the ship took little effort to contain the sailors on the second deck, most of whom were still turning with their heads covered, but at the entrance to the third deck, especially near the powder tanks, the assault team met with more stubborn resistance.

Due to some scruples, the commandos outside did not dare to shoot inside the gunpowder warehouse, but inside they shot unscrupulously, and kept shouting while shooting.

For a while, the commandos could not find a heavy shield to use against the bullets, and the time passed by minute by minute.

The direction of the port has already begun to react, and a cruiser has hung up its lights to ask what is happening?

The anxious Lin Haijiang also boarded the Lady Rice, and soon came to the gunpowder warehouse where the two sides were opposed, because the aisle was very narrow, the assault team rushed several times in a row to no avail, but the narrow passage was piled up by the corpses became even narrower.

Lin Haijiang, who wanted to observe the situation, was targeted by at least three rifles of the other party as soon as he showed his head, Lin Haijiang was so frightened that his face turned pale and broke out in a cold sweat, and his face was also cut by the oak fragments broken by lead bullets.

Lin Haijiang was furious and ordered a four-pounder cannon to be moved, and stuffed more than ten pounder grape shells into it, originally just trying to threaten the other party, but the intention was seen through by the other party, and the two loaded gunners were shot and fell to the ground one after another.

The furious Lin Haijiang resolutely ignited and launched in full view of everyone, a cannon sounded, scattered bullets were scattered and the smoke was filled, and the small cannon that was not fixed turned over after firing, almost smashing the nearest Lin Haijiang.

Lawrence, who had just arrived, was frightened into a cold sweat by Lin Haijiang's feat, and the more than 20 people in the gunpowder warehouse inside immediately shouted in panic and raised their hands in surrender, originally thinking that the other party was just bringing artillery to scare, but they didn't expect that someone would dare to fire at the door of the gunpowder warehouse.

Naturally, Carbonie, who was in the crowded bar, couldn't hear the low, dull sound of cannon on the sea in the distance! After two consecutive unsuccessful inquiries by the cruiser in the harbor, they thought that the other party was unwilling to deal with them, so they simply treated it as if it had not happened.

After the battle, Lin Haijiang put the opponent's captured personnel and the dead personnel on the sampan, but did not give the other party oars, according to Lin Haijiang's estimation, with the current current to the dawn of the high tide, these sampans will be washed up on the beach, so that he also has plenty of time to retreat, and with two third-class battleships, those little guys in Dolin Harbor still dare to chase after him?

January 3, 1853 was a memorable date for the Mediterranean Fleet of the Royal Navy of the British Empire, because in the early morning of that day, the sleepy-eyed Lieutenant Colonel Carbonie was forcibly pulled out of the warm bed by his subordinates, and learned that his Lady Rice had been robbed by armed force?

This is the first time since the formation of the Royal Navy that a third class battleship has been captured in an unofficial engagement!

It took an hour for Carboney to go to the docks to confirm with his own eyes before he finally believed the fact that Mrs. Rice had been hijacked, and the high-spirited Carbonie was now wilting like a frosted eggplant.

Dollip, who should have gloated, couldn't laugh anymore, because he was the commander of this fleet, and now he didn't even touch the opponent's side, he was severely damaged and plundered, and Dollip was surprised that these pirates were crazy while worrying more about himself.

Carbonie is from an aristocratic background, and his father and uncle both hold important positions in the navy, and in the end, it can only be Carbony who goes to change the fleet and continues to be his captain, and may be promoted to the next level due to a blessing in disguise. Dolip's mood was very low.

Fearing being robbed, Dollip and Carbony stayed in Dorin Harbor for ten days, and only after a cruiser was sent back safely to Alexandria did the rest of the ships set sail.

In the ten days of waiting, Carbonie and Dollip and the others have gone from sneering at each other to brothers who are almost as good as wearing a pair of pants, and Dollip and Carbony have made offensive and defensive alliances with many captains.

They were sure that they were ambushed by pirates with absolute superiority, and the Lady Rice 3rd class battleship was unfortunately severely damaged and abandoned! The cruiser USS Sharp Swordsman was heavily damaged.

In the case of Mrs. Rice, Doleep and Carboney decided to say that the ship had been damaged and forced to abandon the ship, and that if Mrs. Rice was later used by pirates, they could also explain that the pirates had towed it away and repaired it.

And Dollip and Carbony believed that the pirates wouldn't be foolish enough to go around boasting that they had robbed a ship of the Royal Navy of the British Empire, which would only bring disaster on themselves, and that if the pirates used it, they would definitely remove the bow statue.

Who can be sure that the pirate ship will be the Lady Rice by that time? Now that the pirates already have a Tier 3 battleship, why can't they get one?

In the battle reports of Carbony and Dolip, it was described that the other side had two large ships equivalent to third-class battleships, which was also the consistent style of the Royal Navy of the British Empire.

When the news of the sinking of the Lady Rice came back to Alexander, the first people who couldn't sit still were the Governor of Cambenin and the Duke of Maclane, and the Governor of Cambenin was not concerned about the sinking of the Lady Rice, nor how powerful the pirate was, because no matter how powerful the pirate was, it was only a strong ant at most, and the Royal Navy of the British Empire could kill it without even a finger!

The Governor of Cambenin was in fact concerned about the safety of the promising young captain of the ship, and the safe return of Campernin made the Governor of Cambenin ecstatic, and first offered to apply to London for a medal for the heroic Lord Carbony.

The Duke of Marklane, reassured when he learned that his armed fleet had suffered little damage, and they jointly submitted a request to the Commander of the Mediterranean Fleet to clear the pirates.

Cambenin was the governor of Egypt, and Duke Maclain was the representative of one of the forces, and Pahel could not be perfunctory as commander of the Mediterranean fleet, regardless of which one of them came forward.

But at this moment, Pahel is really powerless, because seven of his nine third-class battleships and the flagship second-class battleship Mokdo returned to the home Eston shipyard two months ago for necessary maintenance and repairs, and the only two third-class battleships he has at hand as effective combat power are the Lady Rice and the Natador, and now the Lady Rice has been sunk by two ships of the same tonnage firepower on the other side?

Although this information was ridiculous to Pachel, he did only have one third-class battleship on hand, and if this goddamn group of pirates really had two third-class battleships of unknown origin, he would probably become the laughing stock of the Royal Navy.

Pahel naturally refuses to be responsible, and likewise even more so to bear it! After inspecting the tragic situation of the cruiser Sharp Swordsman, he sent the battle reports of Dollip and Carbony to London on a fast ship and submitted them to the Admiralty for processing.

Pahel's attitude is very clear, either give me the warship, or you send a fleet to clear it!
