Chapter 272: Shotgun!

Slightly disappointed, after putting the two items away, Nightblade strolled to the bow of the ship and looked around.

At this time, it can be clearly seen that the Spanish Navy has gradually fallen into defeat, and so far, counting the Spanish warship he captured, the Spanish Navy has lost a total of 4 warships.

You must know that the total number of warships in the Spanish Navy is only nearly ten, and it can be said that they have lost nearly half.

On the pirate side, although they lost twice as many warships as the Spanish Navy, they were superior in the number of warships that were originally as many as 30, so even if they lost 10 warships, the overall impact on the battle was definitely not as great as that of the Spanish Navy.

However, looking at it, Ye Feng's brows couldn't help but furrow slightly, because he found that with the reduction of the number of warships in the Spanish Navy, most of the pirates now focused on the few remaining warships.

It can be said that for every warship of the Spanish Navy, there are three or four pirate warships attacking.

Therefore, if Ye Feng wants to snatch food under such a tiger's mouth, the chances are really slim!

After all, although he is still confident in his own strength, he will not think that he is strong enough to deal with three or four pirate warships!

Thinking of this, he had already decided that he should return the target to the pirate warship again, and thanks to the pirate camp he chose, even if he attacked the pirates of the same camp, he would be able to increase his reputation.

Thinking of this, he began to look around to see if there was any suitable prey.

In a few moments, he found suitable prey, a pirate warship located nearly 200 meters to the west of him, and it was obvious that this pirate warship was also converted from ordinary armed merchant ships.

As a result, the number of gun ports below the deck is significantly less than that of warships of the same class dedicated to combat.

This also means that the chance of attacking this battleship is undoubtedly much less, but this is not the main reason why Yefeng chose this pirate warship, the reason why he likes this battleship. 35xs

Mainly because the exterior of the battleship was obviously heavily shelled, it is not difficult to infer that the resistance that existed on the battleship was certainly not strong.

However, although Ye Feng had already determined the goal in his mind at this time, because the remnants of the battleship had not yet been completely cleared, although he wanted to fight as soon as possible, he had to wait for the Viking warrior - Huskar to finish clearing all the remnants of the battleship.

In the boring waiting, he did not do nothing, because at this time, there were also a large number of enemies in the nearby sea area aimed at the Spanish warship.

And most of these enemies are some monorail sailing ships or lifeboats, and there is no doubt that the only contractors who dare to attack the Spanish V-class warships with such monorails are those who do not know naval warfare and are not afraid of heaven and earth.

For these enemies, Night Edge was not prepared to let the T-105 use machine guns to strafe, after all, for these monorails, wasting the Terminator's precious machine gun bullets, it was quite worth the loss.

After all, although the era of gunpowder was gradually rising, the ammunition it was equipped with was not a standard pointed bullet like later generations, but a ball-shaped lead bullet.

And Nightblanc doesn't have the ability to transform these projectiles into standard machine gun bullets like Magneto, so in other words, its Terminator has a little less machine gun bullet reserves in this world.

Although the T-105 machine gun has a load of up to 2,000 rounds, which seems to be a lot, in fact, there is not much left after one battle.

And the most important thing is that at this time, the contractors on the monorail sailing ships in the distance, even if Yefeng can kill these contractors, he will not be able to pick up the keys that have fallen into the sea.

So how could he waste precious machine-gun bullets on these contractors?

However, while Nightfront wasn't prepared to use the T-105's machine gun to kill the lives of the enemies on the distant monorail, that didn't mean he would let them approach the edge of the battleship.

After all, no one knows what kind of abilities those contractors will have, just like a powerful contractor he met in the world of the Terminator - Ash.

With Ash's powerful fire-based ability, as long as he is allowed to get close to the battleship to a certain distance, then relying on his fire-based ability, it is really not difficult to burn a battleship.

Because of this, in the face of the contractors who gradually surrounded him, Nightfront began to gather the pirates who remained on the deck.

Although the strength of these pirates is not strong, after all, the elite pirates have been brought into the cabin by Huska to eliminate the remnants of the enemy.

However, this does not mean that these pirates cannot be used to play a powerful role, because they do not need to be very strong in melee combat to control artillery.

As for the pirates, their artillery skills may not be comparable to that of professional gunners, but if they just shoot artillery, then it is not a problem.

Under the command of Nightfeng, the pirates standing on the deck immediately went into action, and in a few moments, six or seven three-pounder guns were pushed up by the pirates and mounted on the edge of the ship.

Although the Spanish battleship already had little gunpowder reserves left, there was still a certain amount of surplus after all, which was also used by the captain of this battleship when he was going to break through.

Although the amount is not much, it is enough to support six or seven artillery shells three or four times, and in addition to the Albatross pirate ship captured by Yefeng before, there is also some gunpowder stock on it, so the gunpowder of the two battleships combined is barely enough for them to fight a small battle.

With the pirates' rapid reloading, the six three-pounder guns were quickly loaded.

The pirates then immediately aimed the muzzles of the three-pounder guns at the monorails sailing towards the Spanish warships.

With an order from the night forward.

The pirates immediately lit the fuses of the three three-pounder guns, a few seconds later.

A loud bang sounded over the battleship in an instant, and then a large barrage erupted from the muzzle of the gun, and the dense barrage seemed to press towards the monorail sailing ship in the distance like a dark cloud, and in an instant, the pirates on the monorail sailing ship suffered heavy casualties under this dense barrage.

The three-pounder gun fired a shotgun, and although the shotgun is the most powerful of all types of ammunition for casualties, it also has its drawbacks.

That is, the range of the shotgun is too short, the minimum range of ordinary solid bullets is about 1,000 meters, and the maximum range of the shotgun will not exceed 100 meters, and its general range is almost 50 meters.

Moreover, the lethality of the shotgun against the battleship itself is too low.

At this time, however, the shotgun had an unexpected effect, because the enemy was riding on a monorail, which could be said to be defenseless.

In addition, the Spanish ships captured by Nightfront were armed with three-pounder guns that were much better than those of the pirates, so the range of their shotguns was just right to envelop those monoplanes.

And although for the contractors, the lethality of the shotgun can still be sustained, but the pirate subordinates they managed to gather are not able to withstand the shelling of the shotgun at all.

In an instant, after a large area of shotgun barrage erupted, the pirates on these monorail sailboats were also cleared, and a large number of pirates were killed and injured under this inevitable shotgun barrage.

Then, the pirates, who were frightened by the shotgun, turned away from the battleship where Yefeng was, regardless of the orders of the contractors.

After all, the shelling alone was enough to kill nearly 1/3 of the pirates on the monorail, and who knows how many more rounds of shelling await them?

Maybe there was only one last round left, or maybe there were several rounds of shelling.

Either way, even with only one round of shelling left, the pirates weren't prepared to take a desperate risk.

After all, for ordinary pirates, the lethality of shotguns is too great.

Seeing the monorails scatter and flee like frightened fish, Nightfront immediately stopped firing, after all, although he fired shotguns with a three-pounder cannon, it was difficult for him to shoot more than 100 meters.

And for nimble monorails, it was enough for the pirates to get out of range of their guns while they were reloading their shells.

And if you use solid bullets, it's really wasteful, and the effect is not necessarily very good.

Therefore, he simply gave up shooting and continued to shoot, and he had no interest in these monorails anyway.

Anyway, if it weren't for the fact that the people on these monorails were most likely contractors, then he wouldn't even bother to fire shotguns, after all, he still felt that the number of pirate sailors on his warships was still a little small!

After instructing the pirates to greet the enemy with a shotgun as soon as they approached within 100 meters of the battleship, Yefeng returned to the center of the deck to rest.

Under his orders, several pirates quickly brought some food over, after all, after a big battle, although Ye Feng's body was able to maintain its peak state for a long time because of the relationship between data, but the energy consumed by this must also rely on a large amount of food to replenish.

Because it was on the sea, and there were no refrigerators that could keep food cold for a long time like later generations, most of the food carried on the ships was mainly baked bread and some time-resistant bacon.

And you can't expect the pirates to bring in any delicious food, but it's easy to fill up, even if it's not delicious.
