"Damn, the old house I worked hard to manage, every brick is set up in accordance with the ancestral "Feng Shui Baojian", but it has not been effective, it turned out to be on the body of the Western Red Fan, this time it is finally the ancestral tomb smoke.

When Lao Tzu came back from Luzon, he got dozens of Western cannons, and at that time, what cats, dogs, I'm holding the sea dog in my left hand, carrying the snow cat in my right hand, Wang Meiren and Bai Xiaocao's two turtle grandsons are tied to the door of my Cao family's treasure house to show Lao Tzu, hehehe. ”

Cao Tianpet thought of the smugness and couldn't help laughing. He had seen the firearms of Westerners with his own eyes. He is a big thief at sea, a real robber who relies on sea robbery, and when he looks at the rate of fire of the Westerners' artillery, he understands that his three ships are by no means opponents of others, and with such sharp firearms, if he is equipped with a few more boats, even the four big robbers in the East China Sea are not opponents of others.

Cao Tianzhong saw the Western captain Fernando throw a few small wine jars into the sea, and when the sea was sinking or floating and difficult to aim, he ordered the pirates to shoot one by one, and the altar was shattered.

Such force, hehe, climbed this high branch and developed! It's just a pity that Cao Tianpet habitually pinched his surname, and thought regretfully: If it is three days later, this will be a good luck, and it is suitable to start a mountain and go out for a long journey, alas, but Westerners don't believe this, his grandmother's.

Cao Tianpet's father was originally a feng shui and face gentlemen, although Cao Tianpet was born thick and burly, without a bit of scrimson, but with his father, he also knew how to break words, and learned the ability of feng shui.

It's just that he didn't expect to look at feng shui is also pay attention to appearance, his appearance, willing to trust his ability, ask him to see feng shui very few, and wait for the older and more valuable dad to die, he will be smoking.

One day more than 20 years ago, a pirate leader died, his subordinates transported him back to land, and secretly kidnapped Cao Tianpet to help him choose a cemetery.

This man did not change the habit of Mr. Feng Shui as a pirate, and made the helm of the mountain gate magnificent, paying a lot of attention, just like the pomp of a traditional family in the south of the Yangtze River, and most of the private wealth he looted was used to buy this mountain house.

The house has a shadow wall, a gatehouse, a front building, a middle building, a back building and a mountain viewing pavilion. The wings are arranged on both sides, and each entry is equipped with a patio, and there are reliefs. The relief is full of auspicious graphics, and the peony symbolizes wealth; The pine tree symbolizes longevity; Narcissus symbolizes immortals; Buddha's hand is harmonious and happy.

As for the "Three More Pictures", "Four Gentlemen", "Eight Immortals Celebrating Birthday", "Heavenly Official Blessing", "Spending Money to Protect Neighbors", and "Harmony and Two Immortals" can be seen everywhere.

People on the island know that the patterns on each door of Cao Laoda's house have their own meanings, the first door is "reaching out for money", the second door is "stepping on the blessed", the third door is "raising your head and having longevity", the fourth door is "turning back to have officials", the fifth door is "going out to have joy", and the last door is "entering the door with treasure".

It's a pity that there are no treasures in the Cao family's inner house, no dead treasures, and no living treasures. There are more than 30 flower-like women in the house, and I don't know if Boss Cao lacks virtue and does too much, and he didn't have any children, but now Boss Cao is almost fifty people, and he only recognizes two godsons.

Two three-masted galleons rounded the territory of the fur seals and adjusted their course towards Dulong Island. These pirates are not afraid of fur seals. The fur seals are superior to the number of people on board, they are superior to the sharpness of their artillery, and both sides have their own fears, and they will not clash with each other unless necessary.

There are more and more seagulls in the sky, which is a sign that there is land or islands nearby, and it is close to Poison Dragon Island. The two three-masted galleons had square sails on the foremast, trapezoidal sails on the mainmast and spinnakers on the backmast, and each ship was armed with 25 cannons. These are the two warships that this group of pirate leaders, Captain Pedro, used to start their business.

The sailors are busy everywhere, the sea is calm and the sun is shining, and the sailors are in a good mood, it is a relaxing long trip.

Life on the ocean is difficult and dangerous, often subjected to life-threatening storms or battles. Although the pirate ship sailors benefited greatly, these bachelors who were far away from home were not in the habit of saving money, and all their income was spent on drinking and drinking as soon as they came ashore.

So the pirates on the ship were penniless, they were scruffy, unshaven, their teeth were mutilated, their skin was rough, their clothes were ragged and ill-fitting, and they didn't wear earrings as depicted in the novels, because the earrings got in the way and snagged their clothes, especially in battle.

However, the pirate captain Fernando, a down-and-out nobleman, still partially retains aristocratic habits. He wore huge gold earrings on his ears that glistened in the sun. The tight-fitting linen robe was covered with a round cloak, fastened to his left shoulder, and when the sea breeze lifted the cloak, it exposed the wide belt around his waist, on which was a handcuff and a Western sword diagonally attached.

"Hey! It's almost here, there are all kinds of oriental women on Dulong Island, beautiful and docile, and we are going to have paradise, and we won't have to spend money on those skinny girls in Luzon anymore."

Espardo, with his hooked nose, shouted happily to his companions as he turned the rudder.

Servette laughed, and he stood on a high place, adjusting the sails, and sang loudly: "We are pirates, fierce pirates, with bottles in our left hands and treasures in our right hands." We're pirates, pirates with skills, hey! Beautiful girls, please come to my arms,"

Infected by his happy emotions, the pirates all over the ship sang loudly: "We are pirates, free pirates, under the guidance of the skull flag, toiling to survive, we are pirates, pirates without tomorrow......"

The pirates on the other ship should also be reconciled, and the sea breeze faintly carries their songs. Fernando stroked his curled and upturned beard, gently tapped the beat, and smiled and joined in the chorus.

The bow of the boat broke the waves, undulating briskly, and galloped towards Dulong Island in their happy songs.

"Lord Qianhu, there is a Broken Leaf Reef ahead, it won't take an hour to get around, we will be on Dulong Island," shouted the sailor in charge of the lookout.

The huge hull rode the wind and waves, the hull shook gently, up and down, Peng Xiaochao stood firmly on the bow of the boat with his bare feet, his bronze arms firmly clasped the side of the ship, and said with a cruel smile: "Haha, okay, speed up, we must take the Poison Dragon Island first." Lord Han is now the Admiral of the Fujian Navy, don't let him underestimate us! ”

He is naturally full of ambition, he has already figured out the details of Dulong Island, some small boats and broken ships on the island, Cao Tianpet has let them sail away when he dismissed the old and weak on the island, and there are only three warships on the island now, with a total of less than forty guns.

And his main battleship was equipped with fifteen new Franc cannons made by the Nanjing Ordnance Bureau, each cannon had ten gametes, plus the original twenty heavy guns, with this one battleship alone, he was sure to completely annihilate Cao Tianzhong's warship, not to mention seven other warships.

Peng Xiaochao smiled, touched a few beards under his chin that were not thick enough, and said with an evil smile: "There are many women on Dulong Island, after the fight, the official is in charge, you can buy it first, and the price is forty percent lower than that of takeaway."

If you want to please a beautiful and obedient daughter-in-law, just sell me some strength! Master Cheng has instructed that this battle must be won beautifully and simply, and no one should show me timidity! I'm a little sick worthy of my brothers, the meritorious hugging girls, and the hugging masts that don't play alive! ”

This is not the law in the army, but Peng Xiaochao's rules, there are soldiers who are not serious in training and violate military discipline, tie them to the mast, the wind blows and the sun blows, and they shed their skin if they don't die, which is much more powerful than killing the mighty stick.

One-third of his soldiers are his father's original subordinates, one-third are the original sailor officers and soldiers, and the other are new recruits who have just enlisted in the army, but no matter what their background is, they have been mixed with this bandit for a long time, and the officers and soldiers of the ship are all contaminated with a banditry spirit.

Cao Tianpet is directing the pirates to board the ship, and he has all sent away the old and weak women and children, and now the rest are his elite soldiers and those women who are so beautiful that they are reluctant to give them away.

The waves gently crashed against the shore reef, the hull of the ship swayed gently, and a group of young women dressed in different costumes from the places of Zomoto, Joseon, Yizhou, and Ryukyu were carefully pedaling to board the ship.

These women are so troublesome that they walk on the pedals as if they are afraid of stepping on ants. Damn, when I was violently bombarded by my 'long spear and short cannon', I had never seen them so weak.

Cao Tianpet sighed helplessly: There are less than ten women on the boat, and nearly a hundred people, when will this be?

This big ship is his ship. Cao Tianpet is not stupid, he gathered all the women on his ship and took care of them nearby, just to avoid being seen by Western fans, and to make some excuses to go.

The pirates robbed their homes and houses, and every time they went to sea, they didn't know if they could come back alive, and if they wanted to play with their lives, they had to give them enough enjoyment, and women were undoubtedly the most important of them, a tool to win the hearts of the army and improve morale. And if necessary, they can also be sold for money, and the women who walked on the boat with attractive round buttocks are piles of silver, and Cao Tianpet is naturally reluctant to give it away.

The pirates on the three ships were also busy in their own ways, not busy schooning the sailing ship and watching the sea, but busy looking for a place to manipulate their own private possessions. Chinese are far more interested in accumulating wealth than squandering, and even pirates are no exception.

Some pirates worked hard to accumulate wealth, even if they had no family or relatives. Now it is said that the whole island is about to move to the other side, and all the pirates are busy with their private property, for fear that someone will take advantage of the chaos, and no one will look at them from a high place, so that the distant warships are already approaching at a rapid pace, and some people will accidentally find out.

Cao Tianpet was staring at his moving "money boxes" on the boat, when he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Boss, boss, there are ships coming, they are two big ships."

Cao Tianpet stood on the shore, cheered up when he heard this, and hurriedly urged: "Xiyang Fanzi is here?" Hurry up, hurry up and get on board. Damn, go slow down and let the cannibal fan see it, chop off your ** and ass and stew it!

Shh With such a wide springboard, what are you afraid of, why don't you hurry up and pick up gold ingots there? ”

Cao Tianpet said impatiently, and slapped on the fat buttocks of a woman wearing a kimono, leaning on willow shoes, kicking, and grinding on the boat.

At that moment, the pirate shouted, "Not only two, but three more ships behind, five ships!" ”

Cao Tianpet was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement: "Five? Didn't they say that they would send two gunboats to pick us up? How did it become five? ”

Cao Tianpet ran onto the boat "pedaling", standing on a high place with a canopy and squinting into the distance: one, two, five, well, it's really five, strange, it's really strange."

"Boom!" There was a loud bang, and a wave rose in the sea.

"Holy! It's the officers and soldiers, the officers and soldiers are coming! ”

Cao Tianpet suddenly realized, he didn't need to rely on his old business to pinch his fingers, so he immediately yelled like a god: "Get on the boat, pull the sails and anchor, damn, cannon, gunner?" ”

There was a great chaos under the boat, and the woman in the kimono in wooden shoes had just reached the center of the pedal, and as soon as the cannon rang out, she immediately let out a scream of an octave, and then twisted her ass and fled eight times faster than when she got on the boat.

The beautiful woman has shaken her buttocks, and the pirates are in a big mess when there is no room for them, and the people who give up their lives and money hurriedly hold their belongings and want to find a safe place to save their own Dongzang, and some of them hurriedly run to their own positions, and the anchors are lifted, and the sails are pulled.

Since there was no one to collect the pedals hanging on the side of the boat, most of the dozen or so women who had just boarded the boat took the opportunity to escape. The remaining few jumped on the pedal in horror when they saw the thunder of the cannons, and fell straight into the sea like a rolling gourd. Fortunately, the place was not deep, and after a burst of screaming, they found that the water was just knee-deep, and they immediately got up and fled to the island.

Now that all the belongings and weapons are on the ship, it is impossible to retreat to the island for a decisive battle, Cao Tianzhong had to complain bitterly and order the warship to leave the shore quickly, otherwise the three ships are so crowded here, they are simply sitting and waiting to die.

Han Wu stood on the command ship, and also found that this was absolutely beneficial to the army, but he didn't expect the strong attack to turn into a surprise attack, and they rushed to the front of the pirate ship, which was the dead end of the pirate artillery. Moreover, the three pirate ships were close together, and they didn't have time to sail away to make combat adjustments.

Han Wu immediately made a decision, and immediately shouted: "Command the Weifeng and Weiyuan ships to immediately attack with all their might, and the two ships of Weisheng and Weichang intercept their way!" When the standard-bearer heard this, he immediately gave the command to the front.

Two of Han Wu's warships were equipped with new guns, one was his ship, the Weiwu, and the other was the Weifeng, which was sailing ahead. With the firepower of the Weifeng and Weiyuan, there is no suspense at all in fighting three pirate ships that are still and unable to resist.

When the two ships heard the command, they lowered their sails and slowed down, and at the same time drove sideways, aiming all their guns at the pirate ships, and the muzzles of black holes sprayed one after another, enjoying the pleasure of being annihilated.

This time Cao Tianpet was miserable, his three ships were crowded on the seaside, the water next to the island was shallow and the waves were gentle, the three ships were extremely slow to sail away from each other, and the cannon could not be installed in the direction of the bow, if the hull was not adjusted, the artillery equipped on the side could not shoot at the Ming army at all.

On the other hand, on the side of the Ming army, the Ming warships that flew over took advantage of the momentum of the rapid journey, adjusted the sails slightly, and immediately adjusted the course at a very fast speed, aiming the sides of the ships full of cannons at the three pirate ships in dense formation, and the rumbling artillery fire continued.

A round of artillery fire hit, and one of the outermost pirate ships broke off a mast and landed on another ship, and the fire burning on the sails spread to that side. On the other mainmast, the sail had been beaten into a sieve and hung crookedly on the mast, having lost its role as a sail.

A ship without mechanical power, even if it is equipped with a hundred heavy guns, can only be tied up, and worse, this ship is in the outermost part. It stopped moving, and the two ships inside were blocked from moving, so they had to move forward or backward. In the era when ships were driven by the power of the wind, it was not easy to reverse, would the Ming army give the scrambled pirates a chance to calmly adjust their sails and sail away from the same place?

Seeing this situation, Han Wu was relieved, the main ship stopped in the sea and watched from afar, and the two warships took the opportunity to go diagonally towards the stern of the pirate ship, wanting to sail to their other dead end, it seemed that the battle would end at the cost of zero casualties. The corners of Han Wu's mouth couldn't help but show a hint of a smile.

The guns of the majestic and far-reaching ships rumbled, alternately covering and firing, using the three pirate ships as live targets.

Cao Tianpet stood at the bow of the boat and wanted to cry without tears: This is really unfavorable for the passing years, the foreign devil is like a rakshasa, the yin qi is heavy, it is really unlucky, his mother's choice today is not good, isn't this a concentration of all the people to come to the boat immediately and wait to be bombed? ”

When Fernando saw Dulong Island, he also saw the Ming warship and the pirate ship on fire. He was a little surprised by the appearance of the Ming army, but he was not flustered.

After briefly measuring the combat strength of the two sides and judging the battlefield situation, Fernando immediately calmly ordered: "Raise the skull flag and approach the two battleships that are forcing towards Cao Tianpet's rear wing!" Destroy them! ”

The conch sounded, and the two Spanish pirate ships raised the skull battle flags with red letters on a black ground, lowered the mainsail, adjusted the angle of the spinnaker, and greeted the two Ming warships with murderous spirit.

Fernando had to take advantage of the fact that the Ming warships were attacking the pirate ships and their formations were scattered, so that it would be easier to deal with the rest of the Ming ships with superior firepower.

Han Wu had already noticed the arrival of the two Western warships, and the information he got was that the Western pirates would come to greet Cao Tianpet three days later, so Yang Ling decided to do it immediately and destroy Dulong Island first.

Han Wu, who also felt surprised, was both a little nervous and a little happy in his heart. It's either that the intelligence is obviously wrong, or the pirates have temporarily changed their plans, but fortunately, we are scheduled to eliminate the pirates of Cao Tian's pet army today, and if we arrive a little late, I am afraid that we will only be able to capture an empty island.

Seeing that as long as the artillery fire continued, the three pirate ships would be wiped out without a single shot, Han Wu immediately calmly ordered the standard-bearer to give the order: order the Weifeng and Weiyuan ships to continue to attack with firepower, and at the same time ordered the other two ships to turn left to right, slide to the left flank of the Western warship, form an attack formation, and at the same time his ship also met it.

His main battleship was the No. 2 Fu ship, which was much larger than the Western warships that rushed in, and its mobility was poorer, but with the other two ships pinning down the enemy ships on the other side, it was difficult for the enemy ships to give full play to their maneuver advantages. Han Wu stood eagerly on the command platform, and the gunner stood nervously on the gun position, constantly changing the position of the black hole gun port with the angle of the ship's movement.

The design of the gun carriage of this Western cannon is very reasonable, which greatly improves the combat capability of the artillery, except for the dozen or so original Thunderbolt guns that are still in service due to the tight time and the inability to produce enough artillery, the rest of the Franc cannons use this kind of free advance and retreat of the gun carriage, and the relatively short barrel of the Franc cannon is also suitable for making full use of the gun port on the side of the ship.

The gunners carried the guns and shells, the sailors tightened the sail ropes, constantly adjusting the angle and height of the sails, and the commanders of the warships on both sides kept an eye on the enemy ships, judging the speed and angle of each other's movements, and giving instructions one after another.

For Han Wu, this was his first real battle, so although he was very calm on the surface, he was actually very nervous in his heart. Fernando is an old pirate who has been fighting for many years, and his combat experience is unmatched by Han Wu in any case, and the weakness of the huge hull of the No. 2 Fu ship is not strong enough was immediately discovered by Fernando.

Fernando was overjoyed, and it was one of his ships that fought with Bai Xiaocao and the ships of the Penghu Inspection Division in the Penghu area, and from that battle, he had figured out the power, range, and rate of fire of the Ming artillery.

It's just that he can't be sure whether the main warships of the Ming army are using this kind of clumsy artillery, after all, with such a wide country and such a long coastline in the Ming Dynasty, the number of sailors that need to be used to support coastal defense is extremely large, and it is extremely expensive to unify the armament.

So even if the Ming army had more advanced artillery, it was possible that it would not be used to equip all the sailors. He needs to find out the details of the Ming army first, if the Ming army uses that kind of clumsy artillery, he may use the dense artillery fire to completely destroy this Ming army command warship.

At his behest, another battleship rushed towards the approaching two Ming warships, and Fernando took advantage of the small size of the ship and the quick change of hull to enter the attack position first, and the distance between the two sides was close to the best range of artillery.

Fernando smiled slyly and calmly ordered: "Turning the rudder ......" The ship began to turn 90 degrees and aimed the muzzles densely packed on the side at the other side.

"Fire!" Fernando ordered again. "Boom, boom, boom!" The artillery roared, the ship's side shook, and the sea was filled with gunsmoke. It seems that Fernando knows this distance, and it is difficult for solid shells to cause fatal damage to Ming warships, and their purpose is to kill and injure a large number of sailors and destroy the canvas of the Ming army.

But at this distance, the first round of firing usually carries the surname of calibrated gun position and demonstration and intimidation, and the accuracy is limited.

A large number of shells fell into the sea, stirring up columns of water. The soldiers of the Ming army, who had not fought much naval battles, were obviously a little nervous and flustered, and this was the result of Yang Ling's intention to let them participate in the sea war, otherwise they would encounter such an opponent with such rich combat experience in the first battle, and even if the Ming army was superior to the other party in terms of firepower and warships, I am afraid that they would lose the battle in a daze.

Fortunately, the Fujian Navy Division had seen Yang Ling's "Thousand People Beheaded" awesomely, that massacre, most of the officers and soldiers of the Navy Division were killed, and Han Wu was strict in governing the army after serving as the Admiral of the Navy Division, and the soldiers were afraid of military discipline, so they panicked and still prepared nervously according to the order.

After the first round of firing, the gunners on Fernando's ship quickly adjusted the range and accuracy, cleaned the chamber, reloaded the cartridges with great speed, and the second round of gunfire was fired again.

At the same time, the warships of the Ming army have been turned to the appropriate position, with Han Wu's order, like a rhythmic drum beat, the guns on the side of the Ming army ship roared angrily, and the sea was covered with thick smoke, and the two sides only felt the feeling of the waves hitting the side of the ship and spilling on their bodies, but they could no longer see each other's ships clearly.

Han Wuza's ship was hit by two bullets, one hit the rear deck, because it was a flowering bomb, it did little damage to the hull, the tail sail was damaged, wounding more than a dozen soldiers, and the other smashed into the cabin, exploding in the cabin, under Han Wu's drinking order, immediately soldiers used special water equipment to absorb seawater, spray to extinguish the fire.

The gunners of the Ming army were also nervously wiping the barrels, removing the guns, and replacing them with new guns. As soon as Yang Ling got the drawings designed by Adney, he immediately ordered the artificial wooden fake cannon to be sent to the sailor, and let the officers and soldiers of the sailor practice skills such as clearing the chamber and loading the ammunition all night, but despite this, their movements were much less skilled than the sailors on the pirate ship.

"No. 1 to No. 8 guns, change to solid shells, calibrate the gun position, and prepare to fire!" Han Wu stood in command, unafraid.

"Boom, boom, boom!" The Spanish battleship once again took the lead and fired with the Ming army, the hull caused damage, and the pirate ship was also replaced with solid bullets, but fortunately, the Fu ship was extremely large, and it was not harmful to fall on the ship, only one bullet fell on the side of the ship, smashing the sawdust flying, a cannon was bounced off, and several soldiers were injured.

The soldiers panicked, Han Wuhuo drew his sword in his hand, and shouted: "What are you panicking about? Fight back, the Western pirate warship is also made of wood, destroy it! ”

The rudder of the warship was completed, and at this time the Western ship was reloading, and the Ming army's artillery fire was ready to start because it was a round late, so Han Wu boldly ordered the battleship to approach diagonally and closer.

"Fire!"

"Boom! Rumble! Boom~"

"Boom! Rumble! Boom~"

As soon as the shells of the Ming army were poured out, the guns of the Spanish battleships also rang out. Both ships suffered heavy blows, with solid, hollow, and shotgun rounds fired simultaneously, and the hull, sails, and men were heavily damaged.

As the ship gained momentum, the two sides missed each other across a stretch of sea, and had to turn the rudder back to find the best distance and angle for engagement. Taking advantage of this short opportunity, both Fernando and Han Wu hurriedly issued orders, put out fires, save people, adjust gun positions to transport ammunition, and urgently make preparations.

The number and rate of fire of the guns on the Ming army completely exceeded Fernando's imagination, which shocked him, although he did not suffer from the results of the battle, but the huge gap in psychological expectations still made this pirate leader have a great sense of crisis.

And another Spanish pirate ship, the Adventure, was not as lucky as Fernando.

On the battlefield, sometimes a small thing, a wrong perception or judgment can change the entire battle situation. It is not uncommon for a momentary carelessness to lead to the defeat of one side, and there was a funny story of potatoes 'sinking' submarines during World War II.

And this unlucky Spanish battleship lost precisely in carelessness. As soon as the exchange of fire began, the "Adventure" found that the number of guns of the two Ming warships was slightly better than it, but because the rate of fire and angle of the guns of the "Adventure" could be flexibly adjusted, the two Ming warships were completely suppressed by it soon after the two sides fought, and had to resist passively in the move.

Captain Alvarton of the Adventure became careless. At this time, the "no resistance" artillery attack of the Weifeng and Weiyuan had already knocked Cao Tianzhong's three pirate ships to the ground, and they completely lost their ability to move and fight.

The two Ming warships then slid past the pirate ship to the left and right, and carried out a final round of close-range fire with rockets and flying spray canisters, and when their hulls were completely hidden from the pirate stern, there was a sea of fire and flames behind them.

Immediately, the two ships "Weifeng" and "Weiyuan" approached the Spanish battleship "Adventure" and relieved the friendly ship. The 'Weichang' has been seriously damaged, the mainsail and stern sail have been broken, and the middle cabin has caught fire, basically losing its combat effectiveness. The 'Wasion' cruised around the 'Adventure', constantly firing artillery fire to attract its attention, so as not to destroy the 'Weichang', which had lost its mobility and combat capability.

At this tense moment, the two unscathed and high-morale warships of 'Weifeng' and 'Weiyuan' joined the battle regiment, which gave the officers and men of the 'Weichang' a morale battle in a desperate situation.

In such a formation, once the side guns are fired, then no matter which direction the Adventure attacks in, no matter how each other's warships adjust the direction, there is always an angle of the Ming army that can carry out artillery fire on it. The Adventure, on the other hand, must have had a brief moment in a dead end.

The battlefield was full of cannons, and there were opponents, Alva didn't notice the two warships that 'bullied' Cao Tianpet, one of which was equipped with artillery that was not weaker than him in speed and surname.

Having seen the power of the 'Weichang' and 'Weisheng' guns, Alva judged that with his own speed, he would not suffer in this siege battle. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that the Ming army was encircled and the artillery was slow to fire, and forcibly broke into the center of the two battleships, so that the opponent's artillery could be bogged down.

If he is lucky, he will fire his left and right artillery, and it is possible to destroy two Ming warships in one fell swoop. The wrong judgment led Alva to lead the Adventure on an adventure.

In the first round of firing during the approach between the two sides, the 'Mighty Wind' was only equipped with half of the new artillery, so it was reluctant to make a tentative launch, and only fired shells from the Thunderbolt heavy artillery. At the moment when the Spanish warship turned its rudder, adjusted its sails, and changed its gunpowder, the 'Mighty Wind', which was supposed to turn its rudder and leave, took advantage of the gap to readjust the firing angle to reload its ammunition, and actually rushed forward on a rampage, without the slightest intention of leaving.

Alva wondered, "God, we are on a risk, they are going crazy, are they going to sink us with a boat?" Quick, left full rudder, avoid them! It's so good to come, hurry up and reload the bombs, and hell these crazy people."

"Boom~~~", when the "Mighty" pulled the distance to sixty zhang, the sidesail turned abruptly, the ship turned at sea, the muzzle of the first cannon was moving in the hull, and when it was aimed at the "Adventure", the muzzle of the gun trembled, and a solid bullet flew out, accurately hitting the stern of the "Adventure".

Immediately afterwards, the muzzle of the second gun flashed to the right angle, and it was still shot from the sternboard. Fifteen solid shells hit thirteen, smashing the stern of the Spanish 'Adventure' to the side of the ship, shattering the deck, and piercing the bottom of the ship with one projectile, and the sea began to gush up.

Fernando's battleship withdrew from the battle circle and was waiting for the drum army to fight again, when he was shocked to find the Adventure, and he immediately ordered the battleship to approach the friendly ship, hoping to cover it and withdraw from the battle together.

Han Wu sensed Fernando's intentions and immediately ordered the four warships of Shang Ke to encircle them. Fernando calmly approached the other pirate ship. By this time he had noticed that the bow of the Adventure was slightly warped, and the tail was gradually sinking, and it seemed that the bottom of the ship had been damaged.

Now it is impossible to protect the Adventure and leave together, maybe you can pick them up, and then break out of the siege and escape back to Luzon. Fernando nervously approached as he watched the approaching Ming ship that had formed an encirclement, looking for a weak point so that he could rush out immediately after receiving his partner.

But at this moment, a cannon rang out in the distance, and the pirates were horrified to find that there were seven or eight more Ming giant ships with their sails ready for them.

"My God!" Fernando looked at the approaching battleship and lamented in despair.

"What are we going to do? Captain! First mate Anthony ran over in panic and asked loudly.

Fernando slowly glanced around the sea that had calmed down for a while, and on the way back, the main battleship of the Ming army had turned its head and stared at it with a tigerish gaze. The other three warships also formed a shock formation, which could enter the angle of attack in the shortest possible time. And those eight battleships.

What to do? What else can I do?

Han Wu noticed Peng Xiaochao's warship, and the two sides quickly agreed on an attack plan with flags, forming a double encirclement. At this moment, they found that a blood-red pennant was slowly raised on the pirate ship. Straight to the top of the pole.

A mournful song rang out from both ships: "We are pirates, ferocious pirates. In his left hand he holds a wine bottle, and in his right hand he holds a treasure. We are pirates, pirates with skills."

Blood-red St. George's flag, hunting in the wind

(To be continued)
