There are nearly 200 large and small minesweepers in the combined fleet, generally speaking, pirates are outlaws, they are not afraid of death, they only recognize money, and they don't recognize anything else, under the lure of heavy money from the Thirteen Lines, as well as the joint recruitment promise of Ye Mingchen, the governor of Liangguang, and Bai Gui, the governor of Guangdong, everyone is quite indifferent.

On a large pickpocket boat behind the minesweeping fleet, the Black Flag Gang advocated Feihu licked his lips, this is a strong man with black hair on his chest, and said with a cruel smile: "We have studied the rotten wooden box mines of the Democratic Alliance Army thoroughly, and we have also done sufficient demining drills, and the facts have proved that our method is feasible, this battle is won, everyone can go to Guangzhou to pack a powder and live happily for more than half a year, and will also turn into a court official army, brothers do not be afraid, boldly rush forward, foreigners will fire for us, where there is a cowering than the front, three knives and six holes, gang rules to deal with, Beat the drums! ”

"Knock knock~~" A cowhide drum was heavily sounded, and morale was suddenly boosted!

The dull drum beat was extremely penetrating, Xie Anbang stared straight ahead, and gradually, he also saw clearly the big guy following the minesweeper, especially in the telescope, the gun barrel located in the bow of the ship was making fine adjustments up and down, and he couldn't help but gasp, and called: "Damn, it seems that the British are going to open fire, and the brothers try to disperse as much as possible, prepare, and release mines in three miles!" ”

The standard-bearer waved the flag, and the soldiers all looked ahead, which was actually resigned to fate, the ship was full of mines, and once hit by the British artillery, it could only be the result of broken bones, but no one showed even the slightest fear.

The minesweeper was getting closer and closer, and he couldn't even see the hideous expression and blood-red eyes of the pirate on the other side without a telescope, Xie Anbang waved his hand violently: "Release!" ”

The soldiers of each ship successively lowered the drifting mines into the river, and the black thunder bodies drifted slowly downstream along the river, and this time the mines were large enough that each ship carried twenty drifting mines and one anchor mine. There is no need to align it at all, it is completely dependent on the amount of crushing people.

At this moment, "bang~~" on the Duke Wellington. The slender barrel of the bow of the ship suddenly flashed a clear flash of fire, and then followed. A few miles ahead, a large splash of water rose on the surface of the river, which was more than three feet high.

"Alas!" Wu Jianzhang sighed violently: "I didn't hit, and Shorthair's luck is too good!" ”

If you want to say that the people who hate the Democratic Alliance the most in the world, that is Wu Jianzhang, who was driven to the concession before he got back the capital that donated to Su Song Taidao, and he was worried all day long in the concession, because the concession was open, if the Democratic Alliance had the heart to kill him. It's enough to send a few killers, especially if a good eye is blinded, the sharp pain of the heart does not need to be mentioned, and more importantly, if one eye is missing, not only does it turn in circles while walking, but it is also pointed out and ridiculed everywhere!

Although no one said it to him, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident, even the fans' enthusiasm for him was not as good as before, and he didn't give a penny less than he did. The fans are also a mouthful of Lord Wu, which sounds very sweet, but disgust and fear are still inadvertently revealed. The fake call and urging sound to hurry up and hurry up are already extremely frustrating, and there are even fans who don't come out of the water no matter how they toss!

The woman does not come out of the water, which can only mean that there is no investment at all, which makes Wu Jianzhang not only disappointed, but also frustrated, so he can only rub some lubricating oil and do things hastily, and over time. He also lost the interest in having fun, and he hated this hatred. How can it be flat?

"Huh?" Gilhanga looked at Wu Jianzhang sympathetically, and said, "Lord Wu, don't be anxious. This is the first shot, generally speaking, the first cannon can rarely hit, you look down, this time it will be completely wiped out by the short hair, and you will avenge the blood sea of deep revenge! ”

"There's Lord Lauge!" Wu Jianzhang thanked him, and then seemed to think of something, turned his head and asked in English, which was still proficient: "General Huishi, there are still one or two secondary channels on the right side, why don't you divide some troops and leave from the second flight?" ”

To be honest, Hui Shi didn't want to answer such a stupid question, but he still forcibly suppressed his disgust, and smiled politely: "Lord Wu, the water situation of the secondary channel is unknown, and our army's giant ships may not be able to pass through safely, and besides, the Democratic Alliance Army will inevitably place mines in the secondary channel, so why divide the troops?" And the Democratic Alliance forces want to prevent our army from breaking through from the secondary channel, he will have to divide his troops, so before we fight, we have already taken advantage of the concentration of troops, Lord Wu, please be patient, our British Empire's naval artillery is leading in the world, I dare to guarantee, the next shot, will definitely hit the target! ”

Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the bow cannon sounded again, and this time, a large fireball burst out on the river in front of it, the sound was dull and powerful, and it was obviously a hit!

"Good!" Wu Jianzhang shouted hello, Huishi and Lambert also looked at each other and smiled, and a strong sense of national pride that could not be dissolved spontaneously appeared!

In their eyes, there is nothing to rejoice in sinking the ships of the Democratic Alliance, fighting with the Chinese is of the same nature as fighting with the Burmese, it is the suppression of the backward colonial population, just like adults beating children, they are only proud that the naval guns are produced by the British!

Immediately afterwards, another fireball burst out, it turned out that not only the Duke Wellington was bombarding with the bow main gun, but the four guards were not idle, although the guns on the ship were relatively old, and the guns of the Hermes belonged to the same period of products, but they were all rear-loading rifled guns, and the power was still considerable, but the range was a little shorter, and the accuracy was a little worse.

In a short period of time, the Democratic Alliance Army sank two minelaying boats, and the morale of the combined fleet was suddenly greatly boosted.

"Damn!" In Baoshan City, Lu Dayou slammed his fist against the parapet: "Didn't the British just bully us that we didn't have a warship, otherwise how dare we be so arrogant?" It's just a pity that the soldiers, what a miserable death! ”

Yang Shuijiao also clenched her fists tightly and screamed, "Wang Feng, let's find a chance to blow up his ship tonight!" ”

Wang Feng's face turned cold: "Yang Shuijiao, are you talking nonsense, you still think you are bombing the Hermes?" Tens of thousands of people are around, and you are going to show the bombing? Okay, everyone, don't complain, go into battle, who can guarantee not to die? And that's just the beginning! ”

"Oh!" Yang Shuijiao lowered her head and stopped squeaking.

On the river ahead, columns of water rose into the sky, interspersed with scattered explosions, but not all of them were hit, some of them were caused by the huge waves set off by shells entering the water and the mines, which happened to detonate, but even so, by the time all the drifting mines were cast, the Democratic Alliance forces had already lost 12 boats.

Xie Anbang's face was gloomy and terrifying, and the grief and indignation in his heart were gushing like a tide, but he still said in a calm voice: "Order the whole army, retreat and release the anchor mine, see the map and put it, and order the three regiments to be placed between one and two zhang!" ”

"Yes!"

All the ships began to trace upstream, and the soldiers calmly threw anchor mines into the water according to the water map, not moved by the explosions around them, and these invisible mines carried their hope of avenging the blood and hatred of their comrades who died in battle!

In the minesweeping fleet, Zhang Feihu laughed and said: "The Democratic Alliance has run away, brothers, it's time for the old men to go into battle, all put the tricks in the spotlight, who the fuck was bombed, it was deserved, no life to enjoy resentment, hahahaha~~"

The pirates laughed wildly, but they didn't dare to relax in the slightest, after all, minesweeping is a job to pin your head to your belt!

As the distance gets closer and closer, the gray objects floating on the river surface are becoming clearer and clearer, and the main battleships of the British five ships have stopped shelling, although pirates are cannon fodder, no one takes their lives seriously, but if they are injured by mistake, they will always hit morale, right? Moreover, the main purpose of the British artillery was only to scare away the small wooden boats of the Democratic Alliance forces, so as not to interfere with the pirates' mine-sweeping operations.

"There's a mine over there! Get down down and shoot with a gun! ”

"Bang~~" with a loud bang, a large ball of fire burst out, although the splash can splash on the boat, but everyone laughs excitedly, this is money, every time a mine is detonated, the thirteen lines are counted as money.

Because the water flow in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River is gentle, and May is still on the eve of the wet season, the speed of the mines is not fast, although the mines are painted with yellow-gray camouflage colors, but the details can still be found.

"Bang Bang~~" The river surface is like a fountain installed, one after another explosions stir up a column of water, when it is dense, even the water column is next to the water column, most of the mines are blown up by guns, and there are very few that are really detonated by the wooden fence, and the minesweeper has not lost a single one so far.

"Four thousand eight hundred and sixteen, four thousand eight hundred and seventeen" Zhang Feihu's boat, laughing constantly, someone specially reported the number, according to the price of thirteen lines, a mine ten taels of silver, at this time, the pirates, only hope that the river is full of mines, never finished!

On the Duke of Wellington in the back, there was also a relaxed and pleasant conversation from time to time, and Wadia IV, one of the kings of India, who was a Sikh with a tall and luxurious cloth hat on his head, said at this time: "The Chinese are too stupid, do they think that a few mines can stop the British Royal Navy?" Britain is strong and invincible, in fact, there is nothing wrong with taking refuge in Britain, our power and wealth can be preserved, and I am ashamed of the rebellion against Britain in the early years. ”

"Not bad, not bad!" King Gampatra Otto and King Jah V nodded repeatedly: "We and our subjects are always willing to prostrate at the feet of the Queen of England, and we are willing to be the most dazzling jewel in the crown of Her Majesty!" ”

"Huh~~" Queen Zhangxi smiled coldly: "The humble and dirty Hindu can only be enslaved forever!" ”

"What do you say? Say it again! Wadia IV said angrily: "Kashmi Bayi, you ugly woman, don't forget, your ancestors were also Hindus, and they converted to the White Religion only because they were conquered by the Mughals, and you are also a conquered, if it weren't for the arrival of the British, your Zhangsi would still have to bear the heavy taxes of the Mughals, not only are you not grateful, but you also come to blame us, what right do you have to accuse us?" Dirty white white forest! (To be continued)
