"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "One after another, the shells exploded in the aborigines, and the explosion was violent, and the flesh and blood of the aborigines were flying, and from time to time there were stumps and broken arms rising into the air. It was the first time that the natives had been hit like this, and they immediately panicked, scurrying around the beach like headless flies. The pirates on the battleship 'Exocet' fired cannonballs as fast as they could, and the slaughter of their compatriots by these natives aroused their anger, and they wanted to pour all the cannonballs on the heads of those natives!

The patriarch of the Buena tribe, Enardo, was even more frightened when he saw such a scene. Originally, he thought that this attack on Wujia Village would be very smooth, but the fleet that suddenly appeared on the sea gave him a blow to the head! The Buena tribe under his command is already a large tribe in northeastern Mindanao, with more than 8,000 people in total. This time, he brought 2,000 people to attack Wujia Village, and almost all the hardcover in the tribe was exhausted. But now, with heavy losses, he has not yet taken Wujia Village, which makes him very sad and angry!

And the Chinese people in Wujia Village are in a mood that has returned from hell to heaven in an instant. Originally, they were ready, but all the men were killed, and the other women and children committed suicide by jumping into the sea to avoid falling into the hands of the natives. But the sudden appearance of the fleet launched a fierce attack on the natives, which immediately saved them from their dangerous situation.

"Daddy! We are saved! Wujia Village is saved! Wu Daniu shouted excitedly. Although he tried very hard to kill those natives, his two fists were hard to beat with four hands, and Wujia Village, which was at a disadvantage, had almost no chance of winning. If they fail, they will be killed in the whole village.

The old village chief was also full of smiles, but the sorrow in his eyes was not much less. After this battle, Wujia Village's strength has been greatly damaged, and if it is attacked by the natives again, it will be impossible to resist it at all! In addition, he was also a little puzzled by the sudden appearance of the fleet on the sea, the nearby waters were not a trade route, and such a large fleet would not appear at all in normal times. Although these fleets are working against the natives, it is difficult to tell whether they are friends or foes!

The Flying Fish battleship was constantly firing at the natives, and the other pirate ships were rapidly approaching the docks.

Soon, the pirates with muskets disembarked from the ship. Their appearance of black hair and yellow skin makes the Chinese people in Wujia Village feel even more cordial! In the most difficult moments, compatriots appeared, and nothing could be more exciting!

"Father! They are also Chinese, our compatriots! Wu Daniu said in surprise. He was very surprised, as far as he knew, although there were many Chinese in the entire northern part of Mindanao, none of the Chinese had such a strong combat power.

The old village chief's heart that had been hanging finally let go. Since they are compatriots, no matter how bad it is, it won't be so bad.

The patriarch of the Buena tribe, Enardo, was very entangled, and under the enemy's shelling, his men suffered a lot of losses, but if he gave up like this, he was unwilling! It looks like victory is about to be won, but the cooked duck seems to be flying away again! You must know that Lu Dao has been planning for a long time for this plan.

When the pirates got off the ship, Enardo was even more full of resentment, when did those damn Chinese become so powerful! However, only about 200 Chinese disembarked from the ship, which made him breathe a sigh of relief. At least, there weren't many Chinese who appeared, which made him feel like they still had a chance!

"Patriarch, what should we do? The artillery fire of those Chinese is so fierce that we can't stand it! A black, native, strong man said to Enardo. He was the bravest warrior in the tribe, but his eyes were still full of terror. Watching one natives after another be blown up and killed, his courage has been exhausted!

"Najay, how can you be afraid? You are the most powerful warrior of the tribe, how can you be cowardly? Those Chinese, there are only more than 200 people, and their artillery is only a dozen, so they don't pose much of a threat to us! Take your people, rush forward, and kill all those Chinese! Kill all those Chinese, and then those white-skinned Chinese women will be ours! Enardo yelled. Although the Chinese are of the yellow race, they are indeed much whiter than these black natives. And Chinese women have naturally become the objects of coveted by these natives!

The native man named Najie was a little hesitant. The fierce shelling of the Chinese who suddenly appeared on the sea made him very frightened, but on the other hand, he was unwilling to give up just like this because of the wealth of Wujia Village and the desire of beautiful Chinese women!

After hesitating for a few seconds, Najay made up his mind, and greed eventually triumphed over fear. For these natives, for the sake of wealth and beautiful women, even losing their lives is nothing!

"Kill! Rush with me and kill all those Chinese! Najay yelled and rushed to the docks with a steel knife in his hand. The rest of the natives, under his leadership, also regained their confidence and launched an attack. There was a greedy look in their eyes, like wild wolves.

On the docks, the pirates who disembarked from the pirate ship were already in formation. A month of training has already familiarized them with the handling of muskets. Although the Burka rifles were cumbersome to operate, they were able to fire three rounds per minute. It's just that the marksmanship is not very good.

The wharf in Wujia Village is not big, and it can only be used to moor a few fishing boats in the village! On the docks, more than two hundred pirates lined up in three rows, already loaded with gunpowder, and lead bullets were stuffed into the barrels. The pirates were slightly nervous in the face of the natives' attack. However, these pirates were ruthless characters who came and went in the wind and rain, and they didn't tremble or pee their pants like ordinary first-time soldiers!

The Chinese people in Wujia Village watched all this nervously. There were only about 200 Chinese who disembarked from the ship, and although they were armed with muskets and the warships on the sea were still firing, there were too many natives, and they were a little worried that these compatriots were no match for the natives. In that case, they will still have to die at that time!

As the commander in charge of military affairs on Flying Fish Island, Niu Meng also came to the dock. This was the first battle after the pirates of Flying Fish Island were fully equipped with muskets, and he also took it very seriously. Besides, this is also their first battle in Mindanao, and whether they can gain a foothold in Mindanao depends on the performance of this battle!

"Rabbit cubs, cheer me up! Those black natives, so thin, like monkeys, although there are many people, there is nothing to fear! You've got muskets in your hands, but a lot of burning sticks! The bull roared loudly. Although, many pirates in Flying Fish Island want to use knives, they enjoy the feeling of knives in flesh and flesh flying. However, under Long Yufei's strong order, all the pirates still held muskets, but they still carried a steel knife at their waists.

Like wild beasts, the natives attacked the docks. And the pirates are ready for battle!

"Fire!" When the natives rushed to the pier only a hundred meters, Niu Meng gave the order to open fire!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "More than eighty pirates in the first platoon opened fire! In the dense gunfire, dozens of natives who rushed to the front fell to the ground, and many of them were not killed on the spot, but were injured, and they let out a wail like wild beasts.

Dozens of people were suddenly killed and wounded, which startled the natives who were charging. But then, on the orders of the leader in the back, they attacked again!

The pirates who had opened fire in the first row had now retreated to the back and began to reload quickly. The pirates in the second row stepped up. The same steps, raise the gun, aim, shoot, and then retreat to the back to reload.

After the pirates in the second row opened fire, the third row went up again. By the time the pirates in the third row had opened fire, the pirates in the first row had reloaded their ammunition again.

In this way, the pirates were divided into three rows and took turns firing and firing, forming a non-stop fire strike!

Although the natives were only a little more than a hundred meters away from the pirates, this distance seemed to be a moat. The natives simply could not cross this distance, and under the onslaught of the pirates, their corpses fell on the beach, piling up in a thick layer.

The wharf in Wujia Village is relatively small, and it can hold up to 100 people. The numerical superiority of the natives is completely unplayable at this moment. The pirates were able to use their firepower to slaughter them at will!

"Bang bang bang!" In the sound of muskets firing like fried beans, the natives paid a heavy price!

The Chinese people in Wujia Village have long been stunned, although the number of compatriots who got off the boat is not large, but it is very easy to deal with those fierce natives, as if killing chickens.

"Is the musket so powerful? If we could have muskets, we wouldn't have died so many people! Wu Daniu's eyes widened and muttered!

The patriarch of the Buena tribe, Enado, was also completely stunned at this moment. Originally, he saw that there were only more than 200 pirates who disembarked from the ship, and he wondered if there was still a chance. But now it seems that there is no possibility of winning at all! Watching his clansmen being killed one by one, Enardo also regretted it a little. In Mindanao, the number of people is very important, and it is the basic guarantee of the power and territory of a large tribe.

"Retreat! Fall back! "Seeing that the losses are getting bigger and bigger, Enardo has to accept the result of defeat!
