Chapter 12: Give it a go
Bows and arrows can't be considered unfamiliar to Xiaotian, and I've seen this thing, but the old time and space have only seen bows and arrows for competitions, where have I ever come into contact with such a guy! So he hurriedly waved his hand and said no.
But Liu Chuandong was sick and went to the doctor, and he couldn't care so much, so he stretched out his hand and stuffed Yu Xiaotian with a bow, grabbed a few arrows and threw them to Yu Xiaotian, these arrows were also rockets tied with oilcloth, and shouted loudly: "Don't worry, you have a lot of strength, just pull the sail and shoot at the pirate!" I don't expect you to shoot a few pirates, as long as you can light their sails, they won't be able to catch up! Fast! Someone will help him light the fire! ”
Yu Xiaotian hurriedly took the bow and arrow, where would he do this! His strength is free fighting, and he used to play with slingshots when he was a child, but this is the first time he has touched a bow and arrow.
But now he had no way out, and since he had this thing in his hand, he always had to try it, so he hurriedly grabbed an arrow, and someone hurriedly ran to light the arrow in his hand with a fire breaker, and shouted at him: "Dumb! Shoot hard, shoot those bastards! ”
Yu Xiaotian's two arms competed, this bow is not heavy, but the bowstring is a little finger-strangled, the bow was easily pulled into a full moon by him, he roughly aimed at it, and shot the arrow out of the water as soon as he let go, but the result disappointed him greatly, he didn't know how to shoot an arrow at all, this rocket pulled out a cloud of smoke in the air, and flew over the pirate ship with a whoosh, fell into the sea water, and extinguished it in the sea with a hiss.
"Stupid! Idiot! You're aiming for it! The boatman who lit the fire for him was angry and scolded Xiaotian.
Yu Xiaotian was not polite at this time, his eyes widened, and he glared at this guy angrily, this guy then remembered that Yu Xiaotian was a brute force, not the master he could provoke, so he shrank his neck in fright and said: "Don't be annoyed, don't be annoyed!" A few more times! ”
Yu Xiaotian recalled the feeling when he fired the arrow just now, summarized the mistakes, and once again took a rocket that had been ignited and put it on the bowstring, and pulled the bowstring with a squeak.
With a whoosh, this time the arrow was much better, and finally headed straight for the pirate ship, but the accuracy was still not good, and the rocket that crossed the air did not hit the sail, but was nailed to the side of the pirate ship.
Yu Xiaotian was a little deflated, he was not a genius, he couldn't play with anything, archery requires a long time of training, it was obvious that he was cramming for a moment, and it was impossible for him to have any good results.
As a result, only two of the next few arrows hit the sails of the pirate ship, but the effect was not ideal, and the rocket failed to ignite the sails of the pirate ship, and was soon extinguished by the pirates in the same way.
Seeing that the pirate ship was getting closer and closer, the bow of the pirate ship had already chased to the stern of the Liu family, and pasted it up, the owner surnamed Liu didn't expect to light the pirate's sails anymore at this time, and shouted loudly Yu Xiaotian and the other boatmen picked up the long pole, ran to the left side of the ship, and stared at the pirate ship that gradually crossed the stern, just when half of the pirate ship's hull was about to lean on their side, Yu Xiaotian gritted his teeth, turned his heart sideways, leaned out and stood up from the side of the ship, and several other boatmen struggled to poke out the long pole from the side of the ship, The pestle was on the gang of pirate ships approaching them.
A strong force came from the long pole in an instant, and some of the danger will be Xiaotian bounced a four-legged sky, fortunately, Xiaotian has been fully prepared, both legs and arms at the same time, only then staggered two steps and then regained his footing, using the strength of the milk, struggling to support the long pole, although the strength of the person is limited, but at this time it is on the sea, Yu Xiaotian has a bit of brute force, plus someone next to him cooperated, they actually succeeded in using three poles to prop up the pirate ship a little, so that the pirate ship was not successful in the first attempt to stick up.
The pirates also realized that there might be something wrong with the guns on the ship here, so they became arrogant, and the helmsman saw that the first time he pasted it was unsuccessful, he immediately steered it again.
However, Yu Xiaotian and his boatmen once again poked out the pole, resisted the pirate's boat gang, and held the pirate ship to the death, once again allowing the pirate's attempt to fail.
Then the pirates tried to help twice, but they were propped up by Yu Xiaotian and the other two boatmen with long poles, so the pirates realized that if they didn't kill Yu Xiaotian, the people who held the poles, they were not easy to stick to the ship, and this time Yu Xiaotian and several other boatmen became the target of the pirates, and several pirates immediately raised their bows and shot at them, fortunately, at this time Yu Xiaotian's angle was at the corner between the stern tower and the hull, and there was a cover from the side of the ship, so they were not shot, but the arrows flying overhead, still scared Yu Xiaotian.
But the other boatman was not lucky enough, an arrow hit him in the lower abdomen, and the hurting boatman screamed, lost the pole in his hand, staggered and fell on the board of the boat, God knows what the condition of the wound was, whether he could live.
Although in the old time and space, Yu Xiaotian has been fighting with people since he was a child, and even had a few collective fights with ruffians outside the school or students from other schools, and the experience of group fights can be said to be rich, but where has he experienced such a battle of life and death! Today is a real game to play, although he has the heart to stop these pirates, but he also doesn't want to be shot as a hedgehog on the spot! When he saw that the pirates began to shoot arrows at him, Yu Xiaotian had no choice but to throw away the long pole in his hand, squatted down and hid under the side of the ship.
"Bastard dumb! You ungrateful thing, why don't you quickly take a long pole and hold up the thief ship? Want to die? Do you believe it or not, if you don't get up again, Lao Tzu chopped you? The man surnamed Liu saw Yu Xiaotian squatting down to avoid the arrow, and immediately rushed over from the side with a pale face, brandishing a single knife, pointing at Yu Xiaotian, who was squatting down, and scolded.
It's better that he doesn't scold, but when he scolded, Yu Xiaotian became annoyed, and said in his heart, what the fuck are you pretending to be a good person? Don't think that Lao Tzu doesn't know what you are doing, what Lao Tzu should have done has already been done, aren't you fucking trying to force Lao Tzu to die? Lao Tzu is not really a fool, he will be shot as a hedgehog if he stands up! Don't do it, resolutely don't do it! Yu Xiaotian stared at the shipowner surnamed Liu, and simply turned a deaf ear, just refusing to stand up.
At this time, the pirates also poked out a few hooks, and at the same time, the pirates began to dance the rope hooks with iron claws, and threw them towards the ship, but in the blink of an eye, the pirates' hooks and rope hooks were hooked on the side of their ship, and then in the cheers of the thieves, they pulled the ropes and hooks hard, and the two boats immediately leaned together.
At this time, seeing that the matter had come to this point, Captain Liu couldn't care less about continuing to scold Yu Xiaotian, and hurriedly beckoned Ma Biao's guards to stop the pirates from jumping on board.
Not to mention, Ma Biao really still has a little ability, just when the pirates hooked the ship and came over, he took a few of his subordinates to release arrows one after another, and actually overturned two or three pirates one after another, causing the pirates to let out a roar of anger and screaming.
Seeing that the two boats were already in help, the pirates did not jump to help them immediately, because the side of the ship was hung with a layer of fishing nets, and if the pirates jumped in a hurry, they would be hung in the fishing nets, so that they would not have to make any effort, and the people on this side would be able to kill them.
The pirates are not stupid, standing on the side of their ship, they have begun to slash with knives and axes or use hook guns to destroy the fishing nets hanging on the side of the Liu family's ship, this is already the last line of defense on the Liu family's ship, as long as these fishing nets are broken, the pirates can jump into the gang and get on their ship.
Seeing that the situation was critical, the two ships had already joined the side and turned into a melee battle, and the pirates also suspended their arrows and guns in this direction, destroying the fishing nets on the side of the ship, Yu Xiaotian stood up again, grabbed the long pole, revealed the fishing net, and poked over a pirate who was raising a knife to chop the fishing net, and flew out of the pirate with his back facing the sky, and fell heavily on their boat.
When Liu Chuandong saw Yu Xiaotian's move, his face was much better, and he shouted: "What a dumb man!" Good job! Stab them to death! Get a harpoon for the dumb man! ”
As saying that, he also roared and rushed to the side of the ship, found a spear, and poked it at the pirates on the other side.
And at this time, Ma Biao and a few guards snorted a spear in the stern of the ship, constantly leading people to stab the pirates on the opposite pirate ship, trying to prevent the other party from jumping into the gang, and at this time the people on the ship also took action, since the matter has come to this, there is no good possibility, once the pirates jump over, in the end, all the people on the ship will be killed by the pirates who are angry and angry, so at this time, in order to survive, the people on the ship have to act, as long as they can move, they all copy the guys, Standing at the place where the stern of the two ships met, they slashed and stabbed each other.
Yu Xiaotian is tall and has long arms, and has great strength, his hands and feet are sharp, after the melee on the side of the ship begins, he no longer hides his strength, at this point, Yu Xiaotian does not lack due blood, not to mention that this is also a matter of life and death for him, so he did not continue to retreat, from the loss of the pole in his hand, picked up a rattan card and handed it to his left hand, covered half of his body with a shield, and grabbed a harpoon on the side of the ship with his right hand, and poked it with the harpoon on the opposite side with one hand.
The pirates obviously underestimated the ship's ability to resist, although the ship was hung, but it was desperately resisted by the sailors on the Liu family's ship, both sides used long weapons to stab each other, and soon the pirates and the people on the Liu family ship were each damaged, but after some chopping, the fishing nets hanging on the side of the Liu's ship were also in tatters, and they were quickly ripped down by the pirates with hook guns, and the backmost line of defense on their ship was also broken, and the pirates began to step on the side of the ship with a scream under the command of a black-faced bearded leader, rushed towards the boat.
Yu Xiaotian was ruthless, gritted his teeth, this time is not the time to talk about any mercy, killing people is already inevitable, he looked at one of the most powerful pirates, his right hand suddenly raised his arm and forked the two harpoons in his hand like lightning, the pirate was noisy, failed to dodge Yu Xiaotian's fork, and immediately his chest was in Yu Xiaotian's fork, the pirate's roar suddenly stopped, looked down at the harpoon inserted in his chest, rolled his eyes and fell back to their ship, At the same time as the harpoon was pulled out, a bloody arrow spurted out of the chest, which actually sprayed on Yu Xiaotian's face, hot and slimy human blood, with a strong smell of blood, rushing into his nose, making Yu Xiaotian feel nauseous.
At this time, Yu Xiaotian was no longer as nervous as he was just now, but became calm and calm, protected most of his body with a rattan card, clenched the harpoon in his hand, stared at the pirate on the opposite ship, and began to look for the next target.
And at such a close distance, the bows and arrows and firearms on both sides basically can't play a role, and when they fought just now, the firearms on both sides were empty, and it was more troublesome to load, so at this time, the two sides could only engage in hand-to-hand combat at the side of the ship, and the place where the two ships met was relatively narrow, although the pirates had the advantage of numbers, but they couldn't break through to the Liu family's ship for a while, so that the two ships actually formed a temporary stalemate.
But after all, the strength of the two sides is uneven, the pirates occupy an absolute advantage in numbers, and they are also outlaws who do this business, after several shocks, although the two sides have their own injuries, but the casualties on the Liu family's ship are more serious, and in the blink of an eye, there are three boatmen, who were stabbed by the pirates, screaming and rolling over on the ship.
One side is a thief, the other side is an ordinary boatman, once they see more and more of their own people injured and falling, the remaining boatmen here began to be grasped by fear, one after another became weak, and gradually retreated, which suddenly made Yu Xiaotian and Ma Biao and others who were still struggling to resist the pirates feel a sharp increase in pressure.
At this time, Liu Chuandong couldn't take too much care of it, he knew very well that even if he surrendered now, the pirates would not spare his life, seeing that the boatmen were starting to be timid and some people had begun to retreat, and the pirates could break through at any time, Liu Chuandong jumped to his feet with red eyes and shouted: "Don't retreat!" Withstanded! Now the pirates won't let you wait! Kill! Kill them! Kill them, and serve you with good wine and meat tonight! Kill! ”
As soon as the cry fell, Liu Shipowner roared and rushed to the side of the ship, cut off a rope hook hanging on the side of the ship, and slashed at several other hooks and hooks one after another, trying to cut off these hooks that were hanging on the side of their ship, so that the two ships could escape.
But Liu Shipowner forgot one thing, his dress was obviously different from that of the boatmen on the ship, although he was also dressed in green clothes, but his clothes were much cleaner than the other boatmen, and he also had a pair of thin boots under his feet, which made him very conspicuous in the crowd on this boat.
But he didn't know that at this time, in the crowd of the pirate ship, a pirate had quietly stared at him, and a bird gun was slowly raised, and the mouth of the black hole pointed to this shopkeeper Liu.
