Levi's order was clearly given, and more than thirty sailors had quickly adjusted their sails, and then quickly assembled on the deck, each holding a flintlock pistol in their hands, and their faces were solemn and ready for battle.

Although the dhow is the most rudimentary warship, it is generally equal to the Galen galleon, which is a few sizes smaller, and compared to the galleon for both military and commercial purposes, this dhow itself is a warship built for war, and it is also very well done in some details!

This includes heightened and thickened musket muzzles, like the breastwork of the city walls, so that the sailors can hide behind with flintlock pistols and shoot at the enemy on the outside, preemptively inflicting a wave of casualties on the enemy's living forces before they engage in hand-to-hand combat on the deck, and reducing the enemy's morale with casualties.

Therefore, these sailors also quickly lined up on both sides of the ship, and many of them had already gone up to the stern building, still holding flintlock pistols and watching the surrounding sea vigilantly, and at the same time shouting from time to time to let their companions on the lower deck adjust their positions.

These were standard Spanish Imperial warships, and they were all highly trained Imperial sailors, with a hierarchical military system that ensured that they could handle emergencies in an orderly manner.

After all, after coming to this world, they are not idle, and these new sailors also spontaneously discussed how to deal with different enemies under the old man's narration.

Whether it is the murderous and poorly organized thieves of the Ketuf River, or the standard medieval naval combat style of Grey Mist City, or the elusive and elusive Wandering Fishmen who come and go with the tide, they are the main directions they discuss in detail, so in this actual combat environment, they immediately made the right choice.

"There are about four or five hundred, which is a small share."

The captain's face was also a little dignified, looking at the one that was disappearing into the sea in the distance, he had slowly raised his vigilance in his heart, and subconsciously waved his hand to let the four or five sailors who followed behind him scatter, and also turned his head and suggested to Levi: "But we had better be careful, this is not the sea near Cape Town after all." ”

This is the deep-sea area away from the day-and-night voyage from Dayinpan Island, and almost the dhow under Levi and his feet has also announced the possibility of losing any support, which makes Levi also nod and say, "You come to command, be safe." ”

"Understood."

The captain also nodded, and with a few quick commands, the sailors on the inside of the ship had already pulled out all the bayonets in their sheaths and installed them on the muzzles, and continued to kneel on guard.

When necessary, the flintlock pistol is not suitable for the Miao Tao Fishman, especially when the Miao Tao Fishman's unique, bottom-up attack method, generally speaking, the effect of cold weapons such as scimitars and long swords is better, after all, if you are close to the hand-to-hand combat, it is still these cold weapons that swing and slash to have a greater effect.

Bayonets and flintlock pistols, as well as guns of various calibers, are generally most effective against regular land battles, or against enemies on deck, and as for those hidden under the water, the power has been much diminished.

Even if it is a heavy solid shell fired by a large-caliber artillery, after being fired into the sea, it will quickly consume its own strength due to the resistance of the sea, and can only sink into the sea, which will not cause many casualties to those nimble Taotao fishmen under the sea surface, not to mention that there is no way to aim at the bottom of the sea.

"At this time, if there are mines, maybe this group of fish people will know what an explosion is."

Touching the tip of his nose, Levi also clenched the scimitar in his hand, turned his head to look at the water splash that was getting closer and closer, and some kind of chaotic fluttering sound had already reached his ears, making him remind the captain next to him in a deep voice: "They are coming." ”

"Here they are." The captain's reminder also appeared at the same time, but he took a half step forward in front of Levi, also holding a naval scimitar used by the commander of the Spanish Empire, and turned to Levi and suggested: "Your Majesty, it is too dangerous to fight on the front line, for your safety, it is better to retreat to the cabin." 【】”

There were also more than 20 people in the cabin who operated the guns, but there was no need to use the guns at this time, even the gun windows were not opened, but they were all holding flintlock pistols with bayonets inserted into them, which were used as reserves.

The battle on the front line must have been fierce, and the captain's suggestion was also put forward with the mentality of being responsible for Levi, the king of Spain, to the point that there was no so-called contempt, but solemnly said to Levi: "Those lowly Mitao fishmen, even if the blood is splashed on your body, it makes us feel humiliated. ”

"Don't worry, I'm not that delicate."

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Li Wei looked at the Miaotao fishman in front of him who had rushed towards this side quickly, and the sharp and luxurious scimitar was already in his hand, and said peacefully: "As you said, it's just a group of humble Mitao fishmen." ”

He was alone on land, and he could easily kill three of them in close combat without taking any damage, even on this ship, when he was on the triangular dwarker Devo merchant ship, only more than 20 people could resist hundreds of fishmen, and he could defend a side of the ship to prevent the group of fishmen from coming up.

This is Levi's self-confidence, but also his strength, and the current situation is completely different from the beginning!

The Devo merchant ship is a traditional Arabian triangular merchant ship, which is completely the category of rivers and lakes, and even if you are offshore you have to be careful of the wind and waves, it is not as good as today's dhows.

After all, the dhow is a warship built by professional supervision, although it cannot adapt to the harsh deep-sea environment, but whether it is length, width and height, or the sailors full of sailors on it, it is not comparable to a Devo merchant ship, so if the group of Yutao fishmen want to be like the beginning, they will undoubtedly have to touch their heads and bleed!

The water splashed wantonly, and the silver-gray scales of the fish man appeared and disappeared on the surface of the sea, and the sunlight shone down, with some kind of halo-like intoxication traces, which made people squint.

If it is an old captain in the native world, at this time, it will not let the sailors with bows and crossbows shoot, but will let the sailors with round shields and short swords come forward and come to the outside of the ship to lurk carefully, quietly waiting for those sailors with bows and crossbows to shoot themselves from the bottom up, stepping on the waves and throwing themselves into the net.

Because the attack method of the Miao Tao Fish Man is like this.

The dull sound of ping-pong had already appeared, and there was a sound from under the bottom of the entire dhow that seemed to be a heavy object knocking, it was the Turquoise Fishmen using their coral and stone weapons to knock on the bottom of the ship, as if they wanted to directly chisel through the bottom of the ship and let the sea water pour in, but in fact, experienced captains and sailors knew that this was just a cover.

A kind of cover before launching a general attack, once someone is afraid that the bottom of the ship will be chiseled, or when they are frightened by this sound and fear, the group of fish people who have already prepared seven or eight meters below the water will rush up with their flippers and step on the waves!

"Hula-la-"

The originally calm sea suddenly exploded, and the silver-gray figures were like sharp arrows off the string, stepping on the reaction force brought by the waves and tides, and using their racial talents, they jumped up on the sea surface.

Like flying fish, they still hold short spears made of coral in their hands, and their scaly and almost shark-like faces are a little colorful from the sun, but in the sharp teeth of their big mouths, they also roar in the fish-man language with very little vocabulary, and they leap towards the deck, trying to occupy the side of the ship in the shortest possible time!

This primitive bandit race thought very well, and even their plan was never tired of trying, and there were one or two successes out of dozens of times, which also brought this group of mitao fish unimaginable wealth and harvest.

However, this success was not built on Levi's body, and even their raid seemed to Levi to be just as helpless as a piece of garbage to be cleaned up during the voyage.

That's right, he looked at the Mitao Fishman is looking at the garbage eyes, when the Devo merchant ship was in the beginning, this group of Mitao Fishmen was no longer able to pose any threat to them, and now they have changed to dhows, sailing ships for purely military purposes, and the sailors who are experienced in combat, this group of Mitao Fishmen are garbage!

"Bang bang-"

A row of neat salvos instantly appeared in the shooting holes on the outside of the ship's side, and the fishmen who were still fiercely trying to rush up, and their bodies were still in mid-air, lost the strength to continue to leap upwards with this series of crisp sounds.

Then they fell back into the sea, the rich blood red of the falling figures, along with the crimson minced flesh and tattered scales, and spread with the waves, apparently the fishmen who had leapt up and wanted to jump onto the deck had been shot into a sieve by the Spanish sailors who had already prepared for it!

But the group of Mitao fishmen will not choose to give up directly because of the death of their companions, but more Mitao fishmen, howling in an incomprehensible fish-man language, holding coral spears and frantically pounced on the bottom of the sea!
