Chapter 148: Small Achievements
Yu Xiaotian looked up and found that a few musketeers had just fired, and they had actually made some achievements, and the opponent's mast was on a fight, at this time, he didn't know who hit the road, lying on the top of the mast and screaming, and after a while, he fell headlong, and when he fell into the air, one leg was entangled in the sail rope, and it was hung in the position of the half-middle of the mast.
At this time, Yu Xiaotian heard Liu Wang's cheers, only to hear the kid shouting: "I beat it!" I hit it! Hit! Ha Lu Ha! I'm in for a big hit! ”
Yu Xiaotian turned his head to take a look, Liu Wang, this kid was not on duty at this time, but he was not idle below, grabbing a newly issued bird gun from his short time, and dancing at the bow of the boat to celebrate his harvest.
Yu Xiaotian secretly smiled, and said in his heart that this guy has a bit of potential to be a sharpshooter, his marksmanship is good, and this guy was originally a fight, so he actually picked on the opponent's top fight, and put the opponent's top fight over, and the kid is bad enough.
"What's it called? There are no rules, why don't you hurry up and reload? Yu Xiaotian didn't do anything special about this little brother-in-law, and immediately scolded.
The musketeers and the bow gunners on the ship did not dare to slack off any longer, and hurriedly took out the gunpowder and projectiles, and reloaded the guns.
But the suffering of the boat under the Chaojiang dragon on the opposite side has not ended yet, the two boats are walking opposite each other, both have a certain speed, and soon they staggered with the Seawolf, the stern of the Seawolf is just facing the middle of their hull, and the three gunners who have been waiting at the stern for a long time have seen this opportunity, and immediately dropped the torches in their hands.
I only heard another cannon sound, and there was a cloud of gunpowder smoke on the Seawolf, and then look at the rush of the mixed river dragon, this time it was a big luck, just now a cannon injured a few of them, at this time the minions on their ship have not recovered their strength, and in the roar of their leader, desperately fetching water to put out the fire, or pulling the wounded, I didn't expect the second cannon to hit so quickly.
The two ships were about the same size, the height was slightly higher than that of the Seawolf, and the tail guns were facing the middle of their ship, and the firing range was very, very ideal, just like shooting a target, and dozens of nearly a hundred cannons swept across most of the deck like brooms.
It was time for the men of the chaotic river dragon on the boat to cry, and the seven or eight minions in the middle of the boat almost screamed together and rolled over on the deck.
When Yu Xiaotian saw such a scene, he really couldn't help it, put his right hand into a fist on his waist, bent his knees and shouted: "Yay! Pretty! Played beautifully! Ha Lu Ha! ”
The rushing boat under the mixed river dragon lost more than a dozen minions at once after this blow, and this time they were considered to have no drama, and they were almost beaten and lost their effective combat effectiveness, and then they were no longer able to engage in any broadside battles.
Yu Xiaotian just seized an opportunity, which is equivalent to disintegrating the combat effectiveness of the opponent's boat, which is a difficult thing to imagine, one is that Yu Xiaotian grasped the opportunity well, and the other is that they can only be regarded as shit luck.
But in any case, this time they all took advantage of it and fought the first beautiful battle of the Seawolf since they went to sea to become pirates, and everyone on board, including Yu Xiaotian, couldn't help cheering.
However, their actions were immediately targeted by the other party, and just as they began to celebrate their small victory, one of the lucky boats under the mixed river dragon began to turn and slammed into them.
The hull of the Fu ship is originally larger than that of the bird ship, and the hull is much stronger, the bow is tall and sharp, like a huge iron plow, and when fighting at sea, it has a great advantage over ordinary ships, in addition to the many cannons, the carrying capacity and cargo are also large.
When used in naval battles, it was the absolute main force of the Ming Dynasty in this era, including the official army and naval divisions, and could also rely on ramming tactics to destroy enemy ships.
And the pirates on this lucky ship saw that the Seawolf had disabled one of their ships, and the leader of the ship immediately set his eyes on the Seawolf, and immediately ordered to adjust the direction, and used their bow to target the port side of the Seawolf and collided with it.
The action of this lucky boat immediately attracted the attention of the upper bucket on the mast, so he hurriedly shouted to Yu Xiaotian below: "Rudder handle!" Watch out for the lucky boat on the left, they're going to hit us! ”
Yu Xiaotian hadn't been happy for long, and he couldn't be happy, at this moment the two fleets were already entangled together, staggered past, very close to each other, in a state of melee, and the ships of both sides were looking for their own targets at this time.
As soon as he saw the lucky boat under the Mixed River Dragon crashing towards him, Yu Xiaotian glanced at the surrounding situation slightly, and immediately yelled at the helmsman: "Right rudder!" Turn right! Get out of it! Hurry up, speed up the sails! ”
The men who were cheering quickly shut their mouths at this moment, and the men rushed to the side of the ship, pulled the sail line, and pulled the sail to adjust the wind, and the helmsman was also a veteran, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately pulled the rudder with force to turn the ship to the right.
The boat borrowed the wind to draw a white wake on the light blue sea, and then made a left turn, staggering the rushing fortune boat, and almost clinging to the fortune boat, and staggered past it, only less than ten meters away from each other.
Looking at the hull of this lucky ship, which is as tall as a building, tried it from their port side, all the sea wolves couldn't help but swallow and spit at the mouth, no better than not knowing the road, this comparison, their sea wolf is really a little too small, although this lucky ship is not too big, but at least compared to their ship, it is still more than twice as large, making them feel oppressed.
The ship did not hit the Seawolf, and it was not polite, and the pirates on board immediately rushed to their port side, and condescendingly fired arrows and guns at the Seawolf, and for a time the Seawolf could only be shrouded in their attacks, crackling on the deck of the ship, and constantly being hit by guns or rockets.
There were even a few of Chaojiang Long's subordinates, relying on the advantage of their ship's high side, and threw several javelins towards the sea wolf with their arms, and one javelin almost grazed Yu Xiaotian's side and nailed it to the deck, and several sea wolves who were shocked to see it exclaimed in surprise.
Yu Xiaotian was not shocked, he had seen this javelin just now, and he had already judged the way of the javelin in his mind in advance, and he had already judged that this javelin could not hit him, so his body was only slightly sideways, and after ensuring his safety, he was not moved at all, and let this javelin be nailed to his feet.
Without waiting for the javelin to stop trembling, Yu Xiaotian stretched out his hand and pulled out the javelin that was still trembling at his feet, and threw the javelin back the way it came.
It's a pity that the hull of the ship shook more violently at this time, the sea water was stirred up by more than 30 ships, and the hull of the Seawolf was not big, and the shaking intensified, so that the javelin thrown by Yu Xiaotian also lost its accuracy, and as a result, it flew over the side of the Fu ship with a whoosh, and it was firmly nailed into the main mast of the Fu ship with a trembling sound.
But at the same time, there were casualties on the Seawolf, a soldier was hit by an arrow in the chest, the arrow was also a rocket tied with an oilcloth strip, still burning, the arrow cluster pierced the soldier's leather armor, embedded in his chest muscles, he screamed in pain, and quickly reached out to pull out the arrow, but there was still fire on this arrow, and his hand was burned again, and he screamed in pain.
Fortunately, someone next to him was quick and quickly copied a wooden barrel filled with half a barrel of seawater, and splashed a bucket of water, which immediately extinguished the rocket on his chest and dragged him under the side of the ship, so that he was not burned by the fire.
There was also a handman who was unlucky, and one was accidentally stabbed by a javelin thrown on the fortune ship, and the javelin pierced his thigh directly and nailed him to the deck of the ship, and whoever saw his thigh nailed to the deck would not be indifferent, and this handman let out a terrible scream on the spot, screaming for help, and grabbed the javelin with both hands, trying to pull the javelin out of the deck.
But before he could pull out the javelin, a bullet hit him in the neck again, he immediately let go of the hands holding the javelin, and covered his neck hard, no longer screaming, only snoring in his throat, a large amount of blood immediately gushed out of the wound in his neck, and before anyone else could save him, he quickly fell sideways on the deck, and it seemed that he would not survive, but even if he died, one of his legs was still nailed to the deck by the javelin.
Such a tragic scene fell in the eyes of everyone on the ship, shocking them at the same time, but also angering the sea wolves.
Few of the people who followed Yu Xiaotian today were cowards, and they were all bold guys selected by Yu Xiaotian from his subordinates, in order to make a group of elite subordinates grow up under his subordinates through this conflict.
They took advantage just now, they were happy, and now they have suffered a loss, but they haven't scared these guys, Yu Xiaotian saw this scene, and at the same time, he was distressed and angry, isn't it just that the ship is a little bigger? I just want to bully Lao Tzu like this, no way!
Yu Xiaotian took a wooden shield covered with cowhide from Liu Wang's hand, covered his body, pushed Liu Wang, and asked Liu Wang to find a cover, and the province also incurred such an end, this guy is getting bolder and bolder now, although it is a good thing, but the danger is also great.
And this guy knows very well that he takes care of him, the boss, and when he saw the chaos, he quickly sent Yu Xiaotian a shield, which made Yu Xiaotian very grateful.
"Greeting them, brethren! Avenge our brethren! Yu Xiaotian strode down the stern, came to the middle of the deck, drew his waist knife with his right hand, pointed to the lucky boat of the mixed river dragon passing by, and shouted loudly.
After receiving the order, the subordinates also stood up at this time, and began to turn around and fight at the lucky boat, and the archers and musketeers took turns to aim, and they beat each other.
Liu Tong also led someone to turn the muzzle of the Baizi gun at the bow of the ship, aimed at the lucky boat that was about to sail by, and fired the cannon again with a loud curse.
A blazing flame erupted from the muzzle of the cannon, and another piece of iron particles struck towards the ship like a torrential rain.
