Chapter 158: Fire
A look of belligerence flashed in the eyes of the pirates on board. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Captain Info turned around and immediately issued one specific order after another: "William, you go and sail quickly, you are the best sail man, you must ensure that we have the upper hand!" to be able to catch up with their ship. Nanshan, take your gunners to the bow of the ship, and you must scrap their ship, so that they cannot have the slightest possibility of escaping. ”
This ship seems to be very simple, but it has to be said that this ship was built by pirates with a lot of money, and they invested heavily in this ship.
The most suitable streamlined type for acceleration, as well as a few barrels with strong firepower, and these gunners, one by one, they were sent to special institutions for study, and after they came out, they could enter the ships of the high-level naval army as gunners, but they still came back and continued to be pirates.
The captain commanded the helmsman to steer the pirate ship, gradually adjusting the hull to a "T" shape with the merchant ship in the distance.
The bow of the ship pointed directly to the side of the merchant ship, and the ship asked people to hide the flag on the ship temporarily, and stopped in place and waited for the merchant ship to keep approaching, the merchant ship seemed to have not expected that there would be a pirate ship here, so it did not check it as soon as it saw the pirate ship, and did not see the pirate flag that had just been put away.
Still stunned, he continued to drive this way, slowly approaching Luo Ye and them.
"Captain, it's time, do you want to open fire?" The gunner clenched his fists and looked up at the captain who had just walked over, his palms were full of fine sweat, he was excited and nervous.
Although he is already a veteran, they all know the captain's character, as long as there is a little mistake, their fate will be miserable, even if he is the captain and these people spent a lot of money to cultivate, but don't mention anything to the captain to pay attention to the cost and so on, as long as the pirates still have a ship, they will not make trouble for money.
The captain shook his head, "Wait a while, don't rush, wait until they get close before driving, we can also save some effort and ammunition." ”
The merchant ship is getting closer and closer, and Luo Ye can already see the golden paint on it, and there are many people wandering on the deck of the merchant ship, as if they are chatting and sightseeing, or maybe they are doing business on it.
Luo Ye and their pirate ship stayed in place, motionless and easy to attract the attention of others, the merchant ship slowly approached the pirate ship, thinking that Luo Ye had encountered some accident and wanted to come to the rescue.
It's just that the sailors on the other side are not all ignorant, after seeing Luo Ye and their ship, they noticed that something was wrong according to the draft and configuration of the ship, judged that it was a pirate ship, and immediately issued an order for the merchant ship to change course and flee elsewhere.
The gunner beside Luo Ye snorted coldly, "Don't look at who we are, so you want to escape?" That's underestimating us. ”
The captain ordered the acceleration of the voyage to catch up.
The gunner also began to instruct Luo Ye, "Boy, prepare the Violent Stone for me, and leave your dog's head out of the muzzle when you release it, otherwise don't blame me when you blast your head into a pulp." ”
Luo Ye immediately opened the box next to him, and he only knew how to open the box after seeing the movements of other people around him, and only then did he see the contents inside.
It is a semi-finished ore product, which is made by a little slight processing of ore.
Lifting the violent stone, Luo Ye waited for the gunner's order, there were a total of five cannon barrels in the bow, and Luo Ye in other places did not know.
The light pirate ship chased the merchant ship loaded with a lot of goods, and it was needless to say who was faster, and soon the merchant ship was chased within the range of the pirate ship.
"Fire!"
The captain spoke decisively.
The gunner who found Luo Ye also ordered: "Put it in." ”
Luo Ye quickly put the violent stone in his hand into the cannon barrel, and then immediately retreated, worried that he would really be killed by the cannonball, which would be too unlucky.
Red-hot stones shot out of the barrel of the gun, and with the gunner's prior directional adjustment, it accurately hit the rear tail of the merchant ship, and several others also hit.
"Go on!"
Luo Ye continued to put in the Storm Stone as instructed.
The roar of the bow of the ship is endless, and they sound densely, connected together like a long sound that has never been broken, and it is so dense that it makes people creepy!
The merchant ship did not expect that the firepower of this pirate ship was so fierce and accurate, and almost a few violent stones were missed, and when they doubted whether the gunners on the opposite side had the help of the gods, they also began to organize the mercenaries on the ship to prepare for a more fierce battle.
After all, there is still no gunpowder in this world, and the power of the Storm Stone is good, but it can't completely destroy a ship.
However, under the continuous attack of these heavily trained gunners, the stern of the merchant ship was still broken, and it began to enter the water, losing the ability to move forward, and those sailors could only go down to repair the bottom of the ship, and the remaining mercenaries gathered on the deck to keep an eye on Luo Ye and their pirate ship.
The pirate ship approached quickly, bringing with it an endless aura of predation.
The pirate ship drove to a position next to the mall and stopped, and on both sides something resembling a cannon barrel shot out arm-thick nails, with a thick rope on it, and drove deep into the hull of the merchant ship, and then saw that the people who came with Luo Ye were driven up the rope and attacked the merchant ship.
The people on the merchant ship knew that these ropes were difficult to deal with, and they could not easily break them, and the best way to meet them was to kill all the pirates who rushed over, so that the remaining pirates could retreat.
So they also rushed to the ropes, trying to kill all the pirates before they rushed over, and it would be better if they could just take the pirate ship.
Unfortunately, they don't know where this group of pirates came from.
Mizusawa Island is the hometown of pirates, and the people here are all pirates who have been pirates for more than ten years, and it is not that there are no sailors who have attacked Mizusawa Island, but they have all been repelled by these ferocious pirates.
So, the fight on the rope was staged, and Luo Ye was lucky not to be the pawn of the horse, and he did not come forward to fight with those guys.
Luo Ye looked at the gunner beside him and asked, "Big brother, what are our principles?" Are all the men on this merchant ship going to be killed? ”
"No, our principle is that all the men are killed, all the women are left, the good-looking ones are played, and the unsightly ones are brought back to be used as handymen."
Luo Ye smiled, this principle seemed to be in line with the character of the pirates, and he asked strangely, "Don't we keep some noble people waiting for their families to pay the ransom?" ”
"No, we don't lack that little money, we just want to enjoy it." (To be continued.) )
