234. Repel pirates

The plague of the Japanese invaders appeared as early as the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, but it was far from reaching the scale of the Ming Dynasty. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt this moment, the Japanese who appeared in front of the Black Electricity were made up of some greedy Japanese fishermen and down-and-out samurai. Their weapons are not very sophisticated, but they are vicious by nature, and they often slaughter entire ships after sacking!

The pirates on the other side howled like a beast, and the voice seemed to be shouting something to this side, although no one could understand it, but everyone could guess that the other party's meaning was nothing more than "stop the ship quickly, surrender and don't kill" or something like that. These greedy guys probably thought they were lucky enough to run into a large cargo ship.

When Hu Bo heard about the pirates, he hurried to the deck, he glanced at the flag of the pirates, his face suddenly turned pale, and the memories of decades ago came to his mind. He said anxiously to Wu Zheng: "General Wu! They are the most ferocious Japanese pirates in the area, and our fleet was destroyed at their hands, so we must speed up our voyage and get as far away from them as possible! ”

Wu Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Uncle Hu, have you suffered their losses?" Hu Bo sighed and said: "Back then, we were also a light enemy, thinking that just a few small boats were not our opponents of Shenzhou at all, but I didn't expect ...... These damn pirates are so good at the water that they scuttled through our big ship while we were unprepared, and almost all of us drowned! ”

Wu Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly: "This blood debt can't be just settled!" If they are unlucky today, I will send these damned fellows to hell on behalf of the sea and the innocents who died! Hu Bo was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly dissuaded: "No! Although we have a lot of big ships, those pirates are used to insidious methods, what if they come to scuttle the bottom of our ship again? And they are small and fast, and they are good at harassing tactics, which is very unfavorable to us, and while they are not close now, it is best for us to go away quickly! ”

Afraid of the iron cannons beside him, Wu Zheng smiled and said: "Don't worry about Huber, with these cannons, the fate of the pirates is already doomed!" Huber looked at the lump of iron and was skeptical, he had heard his grandson mention the artillery, but he had no idea how powerful the cannon was, and thought it was just a scare thing.

"Pass my order, turn the rudder right and sail in a straight line, the gunner is ready!" Wu Zheng boarded the command platform to give orders, the gunners on the deck filled the shells, the sailors turned the sails, and under the cabin, hundreds of men struggled to shake the oars under the unified command, and the huge body of the huge ship turned awkwardly and turned its side to the pirates who were rushing over.

A pirate leader stepped on the bow of the ship, squinting at the behemoth in front of him, his heart excited. How much cargo does such a big guy have to load on it? What a fortune this time! If you get it, you can tow the ship back to Japan, and you can sell it for a good price! And those big Chinese on the ship can also be sold as slaves, hehe!

Suddenly, a few wisps of white smoke came out of the huge ship, and then something was heard piercing the air and whistling! Just when the pirate leader was in shock, a smaller sailing ship on his right hand side "boomed" and almost broke into two pieces in the flying wooden shards! The people on board were swept from the ship into the sea by the air waves, and let out a terrible cry.

What's going on? Before he could come to his senses, there were a few more screams, and something fell on all sides of the sailboat he was on, and the impact stirred up the water several feet high, and drenched him all over his face! One of his men crawled up to him, screaming that another ship had been sunk!

"Yaga!" The pirate leader blushed angrily and had a thick neck, he still hadn't figured out what the other party had used to sink his ship, thinking that he had lost two ships before he had fought the other party this time, which had never happened before! But if he wants to retreat, he is very unwilling. Gritting his teeth, the pirate leader waved his katana and ordered full speed ahead, he had to get as close to the giant ship as possible so that his men could dive into the water and sink it!

"General, the pirates are rushing towards us!"

Wu Zheng had already understood the pirates' intentions, he snorted coldly and said, "It's okay, let them come over, since they have to enter the range of our rockets, why should we refuse?" Pass my orders, and the crossbowmen prepare the rockets! ”

Seeing that the giant ship was still moving slowly in place, the pirate leader was overjoyed, and he yelled and ordered his ships to speed up, as long as they got closer, his "water ghost" could dive into the water unconsciously.

Sou!

Whoosh!

One rocket after another broke through the sea fog and shot at the pirate ship, and the pirate leader couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the few arrows in the sky, and wanted to burn my ship with these dozens of rockets? It seems that the owner of this ship is also an ignorant dirt bun! Just then, a rocket "banged" onto the deck beneath his feet, and he looked at it with a grin......

Hey? How is it that this arrow has a cylindrical thing tied to it, and the exposed "little tail" is still sparking?

A huge bang suddenly exploded behind the ears of the pirate leader, and he turned his head in shock to see another sailboat behind him shattered into countless pieces in a burst of fire! He suddenly realized something, and stared at the strangely shaped arrow at his feet.

"Yaga!"

Bang!

Watching the pirate's ship catch fire and sink amid a roar, the people on board the Black Electricity cheered and jumped. Hu Bo was stunned at the beginning, and now he is full of tears, and he silently mutters in his heart: "Brothers, General Wu has avenged you!" You can finally look at the Nine Springs! ”

The remaining three pirate ships turned around and fled, while their accomplices who fell overboard were ruthlessly left to fend for themselves.

Wu Zheng ordered people to put down the boat to rescue all these pirates who had fallen into the water, and when these pirates were dragged up, they were like dead dogs in the water, lying on their backs on the deck and spitting out the sea water in their stomachs.

Although Wu Zheng's actions caused confusion among his subordinates, and even thought that it was not worth saving these beasts at all, no one dared to make irresponsible remarks about Wu Zheng, except for Hu Bo. Hu Bo asked angrily, "What did General Wu do to save these beasts?" Wu Zheng smiled and explained: "Hu Bo doesn't need to be angry, these people are ready-made labor, with them, our sailors don't have to stay at the bottom of the ship all day long, just let these guys do it!" ”

Hu Bo was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, "You can figure it out, let the pirates be our sailors!" Wu Zheng said coldly: "It's too cheap to let these guys drown them, I want to make them pay more pain and price!" ”
