In this era, the most common means of ship robbery and naval warfare used by Chinese pirates was mainly cold-weapon jumping white-knuckle warfare, and the skills of artillery limited their ability to carry forward the advantages of firearms, so their most effective combat method was to rely on manpower to carry out white-knuckle warfare to capture and control enemy ships.

And in this era, the ships and artillery skills of the Western countries have greatly surpassed China, and the large Galen ships they use and the more advanced artillery skills have made them have begun to give up the dangerous and casualty white-knuckle warfare, and more often the naval battle is based on the cannons of both sides to duel, until one side wins, only some smuggling ships, prefer to use the white-knuckle battle of the jumping gang, mainly because they can't sink the robbed ships, otherwise, they will be busy in vain, even so, They also tend to use artillery bombardment to damage enemy ships and kill and wound a large number of enemy ships to make them lose the ability to resist before resorting to gang jumping.

However, the artillery equipped by the Chinese pirates, because of its quality, is more often used to deter and embolden themselves, and only at a very close distance can the scattered bullets fired by their cannons cause relatively large damage to the opponent.

Chen Xinji, as an old fur seal, of course knew the power of their cannons, so from the beginning he strictly ordered the minions on the ship not to fire cannons without authorization, one is to save ammunition, but to give the other party a relatively large damage when necessary, otherwise, once they release the cannon, but they can't hit the enemy, and it will be very delayed to reload for a while.

It wasn't until this moment when Zheng Python had already begun to send someone to post it that Chen Xinji gritted his teeth and gave the order and began to light the cannon.

Hearing only a few deafening cannon sounds, the three Yan Siqi's boats finally became angry, and clouds of gunpowder smoke rose up, because the distance was very close, and Zheng Yiguan's subordinates finally tasted the bitterness.

A sampan was hit on the spot, although the cannons were all messy fragments, but the bombardment at such a distance could effectively exert their maximum power, only to see that this sampan was suddenly beaten to the debris flying, and the seven or eight pirates on the ship were swept away in the blink of an eye, leaving a large area of blood red on the sea.

In addition, the two ships of Zheng Yiguan that came up close were also shelled, and the cannons swept across their decks, and at this time, a large number of pirates under Zheng Yiguan had already assembled on the deck, waving the swords and axes in their hands, ready to fight in the gang.

As a result, Chen Xinji ordered a cannon to sweep over, and suddenly a large piece was knocked down as if it had been cut rice, and the scene could be said to be miserable.

This time, Zheng Yiguan's subordinates quit, hurriedly fired back again, and stepped up closer, and the three boats led by Chen Xinji, after the cannons, although the minions hurriedly tried to reload, but their speed was very slow, and they couldn't complete the loading quickly for a while, and watched these Zheng Yiguan's subordinates surround them, and began to throw various rope hooks towards their boats, and poked out long hooks, hooks hung on their boats, and climbed towards their boats.

"Give it to Lao Tzu! Fight with them, kill one is enough, kill two to earn one! Kill, kill, kill, kill Lao Tzu! Chen Xinji knew at this time that he had reached the last moment, and whether they could survive or not depended on whether they could repel these Zheng Yiguan's subordinates at this time.

In an instant, the most tragic white-knuckle battle of the naval battle began, the personnel of both sides rushed to the side of the ship, one side was desperately trying to prevent the other side from jumping onto their ship, and the other side was desperately trying to rush to the other side's ship, both sides used knives, guns and axes and even harpoons, the close ones were slashed with knives and axes, and the farther ones were stabbed with spears or harpoons.

And the personnel on both sides are basically ruthless characters, all veterans picked out for this operation, it is not too much to say that they are outlaws, it can almost be said that the knife is red, the gun is in the flesh, every moment someone will scream and fall on the deck, or fall into the sea, the sea water on the side of the ship is almost instantly stained red with human blood, and the nearby sharks are gradually attracted to join the fight.

The screams and curses, and the sound of swords and guns were mixed together, and they soared into the sky.

Chen Xinji stared at the red eyes, supervised the battle on the ship, and kept driving the people on the boat to the side of the ship as long as they could still move, and joined in the fierce fight, he knew that his side was short of manpower after all, although they could still withstand it now, but they couldn't hold on for long, if no one came to save them, they would really be planted here today.

But at this time, the two sides are fighting in full swing, Chen Xinji has no time to care, he can only stare at the fierce battle on the side of the ship, for fear that if he is not careful, he will be rushed over by Zheng Python's men, once the defense line is torn apart, then they can't stop Zheng Python's men from seizing the boat today.

Seeing the brothers on the boat fall one after another, Chen Xinji's heart sank more and more, and gradually sank to the bottom, and his heart was finished! Today is the end of the day.

As the casualties on the ship increased, seeing that the defense line on the side of the ship was already in danger, Zheng Python's subordinates continued to ride the sampan towards their ship, throwing flying tiger claws one by one onto the deck of the ship, hooking the side of the ship, and pulling the rope towards the ship.

Chen Xinji finally couldn't help it, and was ready to greet his subordinates in the bottom bilge, ignite the powder keg in the bottom bilge, and die with the ship, even if he died, he was not willing to leave this batch of silver to Zheng Python.

Just when Chen Xinji was about to completely despair, the people on Zheng Python's side suddenly seemed panicked, and the offensive was suddenly stopped, and then someone shouted: "Look, a ship is coming!" ”

Chen Xinji quickly closed his mouth and looked around at the sea, and finally saw a thick smoke rising from the sea in their northwest direction.

Chen Xinji's heart almost burst with joy, because this smoke was the signal they had agreed with Yu Xiaotian, so there was no need to think about it, the ship that came must be the fleet of sea wolves, and now they were saved.

"Brethren, the fleet of the sea wolves is here! We're saved! Kill, kill these bastards! Kill Lao Tzu hard! ……”

Chen Xinji rushed to the side of the ship like crazy, and no longer commanded, picked up the single knife in his hand, and slashed wildly at the subordinates of Zheng Yiguan who were trying to rush over at the side of the ship.

These Yan Siqi's subordinates, who were already at the end of the crossbow, suddenly learned that the reinforcements had arrived at this time, and they all became ecstatic, and one by one they didn't know where to give birth to a burst of strength, roared wildly and suddenly erupted, picked up their swords and guns and frantically greeted these enemies in front of them.

Zheng Python brought these subordinates, already felt that it was almost the same, the price they paid today was really not small, the number of people on the three Yan Siqi ships exceeded their expectations, and the resistance also exceeded their expectations, most of these Yan Siqi's subordinates were his cronies, no one was willing to lay down their arms and surrender, and they were crazy to fight with them on the side of the ship, so that they attacked for a while, killed and injured many brothers, but still failed to attack these three boats.

But they also saw that the number of the other party was getting smaller and smaller, and the defense line on the side of the ship began to loosen, and the collapse was just a matter of sight, as long as they worked harder, it wouldn't take long to attack the opponent's ship, and once they only attacked the opponent's ship, the next thing would be easy, and the enemy on the enemy ship was absolutely incapable of blocking their continuous attack.

But at this time, someone exclaimed, shouting that a ship was coming, so many of Zheng Yiguan's subordinates were taken aback, and hurriedly looked towards the sea, when they saw that there was indeed a fleet rushing towards them, these Zheng Yiguan's subordinates were all taken aback, that is, in such a blink of an eye, these subordinates on Yan Siqi's boat, one by one, as if they had taken aphrodisiacs, became high-spirited again, and frantically counterattacked them.

Some of Zheng Yiguan's subordinates, who were a little panicked, were not careful, and they were chopped over on the side of the boat by Yan Siqi's men who pounced, and they fell into the sea one by one screaming, and in an instant, they became a delicious meal in the mouth of a shark.

Zheng Python, who was originally commanding the battle on the periphery, was already a little proud at this time, thinking that he was clean and beautiful today, and then he could be said to be victorious, and it wouldn't be long before the tens of thousands of taels of silver on these three boats should belong to him.

Thinking of tens of thousands of taels of white silver, which was about to arrive, Zheng Python's heart was as happy as a beautiful girl who had just slept with him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching with pleasure.

But at this time, Shangdou exclaimed from above, pointed to the sea in the northwest direction and shouted: "Look over there!" A fleet is coming! ”

When Zheng Python heard this exclamation, he twitched violently in his heart, and quickly turned his head to look in the direction of Shang Douzhi, but the first thing he saw was indeed a thick smoke, and then he saw the sail shadow of a fleet, rushing towards them, and it was not very far away from them.

Just now, the people of them focused on the battlefield, even if they were fighting, they also paid more attention to the direction of Bengang, but they didn't know what to do, the agreement between Yan Siqi and the sea wolf, the sea wolf's fleet would come over to pick up these ships transporting silver.

So when they spotted the sea wolf's fleet, the sea wolf's fleet was already in their field of vision, and it was rushing towards them at high speed.
