Chapter 30: The Treasure Knife and Human Affection

[Today's third update]

"What? Out of shells? Deng Haonan was dumbfounded!

dropped the chain at the critical moment, Deng Haonan was really speechless.

I thought I would brake sharply, avoid the enemy ship in the opposite direction, and then flee. However, his own plan was very smooth, but he underestimated the other party's ability to reflect. The other enemy ship is also shrewd, perhaps experienced! Seeing that Deng Haonan's warship was using a sharp anchor to turn, he immediately adjusted the warship and turned around. Because Deng Haonan lowered the sail to half the position, the speed slowed down, so that the enemy ship took the opportunity to catch up.

Deng Haonan is also ready to kill the remaining enemy ship in one go, at this time, it seems that he is undoubtedly dreaming, there is no shell, do you want to fight with others? Apparently enemy ships are not fools!

Huang Zupei saw that Deng Haonan was out of options, and sighed at the moment: "We have earned enough!" It doesn't matter if they sink you! Now it can only depend on God's will, if we can survive half an hour, maybe we can still be saved when it gets dark! ”

At this time, Lin Feng returned to the battlement tower and said, "Master! I've ordered everything I can throw into the ocean! I think we'll try to keep the weight as low as possible, and we'll be faster! ”

It seems that Lin Feng also knows that there are no shells! Deng Haonan felt a sense of loss in his heart, and the excitement brought by the victory just now had completely dissipated.

Whoosh!

The enemy ships on the flanks and left opened fire again, and the shells flew in overwhelmingly, causing considerable damage to the ships when they landed. Since the speed of the warships on both sides was not very fast, Deng Haonan's side was about six knots, and the enemy ships were slightly faster, about seven knots. The enemy ships had not caught up for the time being, so they could not open fire with all the side guns, which gave Deng Haonan and others a chance to breathe.

However, it was a matter of time before he was caught up, and Deng Haonan had no shells at this time, so he could only be slaughtered.

At this time, Huang Zupei suddenly said: "It's not completely impossible! ”

Deng Haonan hurriedly asked: "Brother Huang, what can I do, hurry up and tell us!" ”

Huang Zupei glanced at everyone and said: "Our lucky ship has a feature, that is, the rudder lock that controls the rudder slurry at the stern is not placed in the cabin, but on the bottom of the ship, which is always connected to the steering wheel device at the bow!" Once it is cut off, it is very difficult for the whole ship to turn! ”

Lin Feng asked, "You mean to cut the enemy's rudder lock?" ”

Huang Zupei nodded, noncommittal.

Deng Haonan frowned, thought for a while, and asked, "But how can we break each other's rudder locks?" ”

Huang Zupei said with a smile: "The rudder is locked at the bottom of the ship, and it takes a person with extremely strong water resistance to cut it with the sharpest blade!" ”

Lin Feng asked: "Nale rudder lock is as thick as a wrist, I'm afraid that if the rope is cut, the person will suffocate to death!" ”

Deng Haonan said: "Yes! Besides, the enemy ships are advancing at high speed, not to mention whether we can cut the ropes, I am afraid that we will not be able to approach the enemy ships at all! ”

Huang Zupei said: "This is the only chance! Otherwise, we'll just have to wait for the other side to catch up and sink us! I don't think Deng Jiaoxi is a person who sits idly by! ”

Deng Haonan sighed: "This time it really made Brother Huang see a joke!" There's really nothing to be done about it! ”

Huang Zupei suddenly laughed a few times, then sighed, and said to Deng Haonan: "I didn't expect you to be so honest!" If it were me, I would definitely die to save face to the end! But for the sake of you calling me Brother Huang, just now you saved my life, I will help you cut the rudder lock of the enemy ship, and then you immediately turn and flee, so that before dark, the enemy will not be able to catch up with you! ”

"No!" Deng Haonan refused and said: "You can't contact the opponent's warship at all, once the launching fails, our ship can't stop to save you, you only have a dead end!" ”

"That's my business!" Huang Zupei said: "I don't want to owe you a favor! ”

Deng Haonan hurriedly said: "If you were anyone, they would save you in that situation!" Therefore, you don't have to be grateful to me, and I don't have to give me a favor in return! ”

Huang Zupei smiled: "You said that anyone else would save me, but you saved me?" Now, as in today, anyone would not hesitate to save the brethren on this ship! I'm the best person in the water, and I should do it! ”

Then, Huang Zupei said to Deng Haonan as an elder: "You have done a very good job, even beyond my imagination!" However, everything is too much, and you should understand the truth of hitting the first bird with a stick! Your biggest asset is to be young, don't rush it! ”

Saying that, when Deng Haonan was stunned, Huang Zupei quickly got off the battlement, called a few anchors, removed the only port iron anchor, and tied the cable to his body.

At this time, Lin Feng suddenly sighed: "Huang Zupei is really a man!" He is repaying the teacher with his life! Let's not talk about whether he can dive to the bottom of the other party's boat, even if he has the ability to dive over and want to cut the rudder lock at the bottom of the boat a few feet deep, I can't think of any other way for him to ventilate than suffocating himself! ”

Deng Haonan's heart was shocked, he knew that the ancients were finally righteous, but he didn't expect that this Huang Zupei would be willing to sacrifice himself like this for Deng Haonan's life-saving grace, he was really a man!

Wait a minute! Lin Feng said that it was difficult to cut the rudder lock, because Huang Zupei only had one chance to dive into the bottom of the opponent's boat, and if he came up to ventilate, he would be thrown off by the ship, thus losing his previous efforts. As a result, he dived to the bottom of the ship all at once, but cutting the cable for too long would suffocate him to death.

"Ropes are hard to cut!" Deng Haonan repeated this sentence, and suddenly shouted at Huang Zupei: "Brother Huang, wait a minute! Then, Deng Haonan took out a dagger from his waist, quickly shelled Huang Zupei in front of him, and said: "Brother Huang, with this dagger of mine, if you have the strength, the wrist-thick cable can be cut in a few clicks!" ”

Huang Zupei took the dagger in Deng Haonan's hand suspiciously, and took a closer look, this dagger was very special, and Huang Zupei felt very comfortable in his hand. Looking at the blade again, half of it is a sharp single-sided edge, and half of it is a serration of different shades, and the whole knife is a wavy curve.

Huang Zupei curiously used this knife to lightly cut the wrist-thick rope, and cut a neat opening of the cable when he landed, and the end was sharp. Then Huang Zupei pulled hard a few times, and the wrist-thick rope was suddenly cut.

Huang Zupei was overjoyed and said excitedly: "What a treasure knife!" ”

Khan, Deng Haonan smiled slightly, this knife was modified by him to imitate the paratrooper knife and life knife of later generations, the material is made of the remaining materials of fine iron used for casting cannons, and some other metals are added, making the blade very strong, and it can easily cut through five millimeters thick iron pieces.

"This is my weapon for self-defense!" Deng Haonan then said very sincerely: "Now I will lend him to you, I wish you success!" But don't forget to give it back to me! You're a man, don't talk and don't count! ”
