Chapter 246: Rama Water Ghost
The White Tulip is fine! This is the first point that Wang Mancang confirmed.
However, something happened to the tulip sister ship! This is the second point that Wang Mancang determined.
The two Tulip sister ships, which were engaged in a fierce battle with the cruisers at the rear of the original fleet, suddenly seemed to be vigorously pushed to the bottom of the ship, and the hull of the ship jumped sharply in both directions, until it left the water three or four feet high, and then fell back into the sea again, and the sea water splashed around it, and the sound of the ship's wood breaking was tooth-wrenching, and it was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears.
After that, the two ships seemed to be dragged by something under the water, and in a very short time they whirled and sank rapidly, and the old king and falcony, who were still fighting, did not even react, they interrupted the rhythm of the battle because of the loud noise, and were hesitating whether to continue the move, and with just a few efforts, the two four-masted galen ships completely disappeared from the sea, and only some broken slag canvas proved that they had been on this sea.
There was a brief and eerie calm on the originally noisy sea, and it seemed that the sound of the sea breeze and waves had been deliberately reduced in volume to match the atmosphere at this time.
Whether it was the loss of the ship, Lao Wang's side, or the equivalent of picking up a big bargain, everyone was a little stunned, they had just watched the two ships from the sea, and they were speechless for a long time.
You know, it was two four-masted Galen ships, with a load capacity of more than a thousand tons, and the number of four-pounder guns alone added up to 72 guns, and such a ship should not be something that could not even roll out the waves in the water.
Without waiting for anyone to think about it, God immediately showed his absolute impartiality, and the Tulip sister ship under Wang Mancang's command had not been sinking for long, and the cruiser Goblet, which had fought against them, had suffered the same fate as her opponent.
A loud bang was heard again, and the cruiser leaped from the sea.
Despite her size, she's bigger than a four-masted Galen, but she's not inferior to her leap from the sea, even taller than her sister tulip.
The huge hull resembles a tuna pulled out of the water, leaving the surface of the water for a full six or seven feet, so much so that the sailors on board even experienced a brief period of weightlessness in the process of smashing back into the water.
The so-called standing high and falling hard, when she returned to the sea again, the situation encountered by the Goblet could only be more miserable.
The huge impact force made her hull directly break into two sections visible to the naked eye, and the sea water poured in a large amount along the cracks, and there were even some schadenfreude in the first few seconds The sailors who sank the opponent never expected that the current world would come so quickly, but they could not do anything, they could only struggle in the crying father and shouting mother, and finally fell into the water helplessly, and they were pulled down by the huge suction force of the ship's rapid sinking, which could only become bait for sharks.
"Uncle, I don't think it's that simple, this attack is indiscriminate, you see, the enemy cruisers have also suffered. It was Takenaka who spoke, and this was also the first voice from the channel of the Invincible Uncle Team team, which had been silent since the beginning of the attack.
Lao Wang's eyes didn't leave the sea at all, and his tone was grim like a general leading his troops into a place of death: "I suspect now that the guy who shot is rushing to a pot, and they don't want us to escape at all." ”
"Is this strength to hit the boat into the sky still a contestant?" Boss Tan took the time to ask, the other party's means of destroying the ship were too terrifying, and it was easy to wonder if this was some kind of super power arranged in random space.
"It's hard to say, but I do know that the attack was definitely launched from underwater. Lao Wang said decisively: "Without further ado, we can't wait for the enemy to come to the door!" Bamboo, you give me to immediately adjust the direction of the ship, sail at full speed, the rudder can be as chaotic as possible, don't have rules, as much as possible so that the enemy can't predict the direction of our advance, Boss Tan and I personally lead people into the water to see what is going on below, oh yes, Boss Tan, I remember you said that there is a line suitable for underwater combat!
"Yes!" Tan Liang affirmed forcefully: "There is a play "Jiujiangkou" in my current excerpt, and I play Hua Yunlong in it, which is a good hand underwater. ”
"Jiujiangkou", also known as "The Burning of Chen Youliang", is about the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the heroes rose together, each divided one side, in addition to fighting with the Great Yuan Dynasty, the princes themselves also fought with each other.
At that time, the emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty, Chen Youliang, and the king of Wu, Zhang Shicheng, became in-laws with each other, so Chen Youliang sent the general Hu Lan to Zhang Shicheng to welcome Zhang Shicheng's son Zhang Ren to his territory and marry his daughter.
Zhu Yuanzhang, as the later Ming Taizu, of course, did not give his ability in vain.
Just when Hu Lan received Zhang Ren and was about to go to see Chen Youliang, Zhu Yuanzhang's scouts captured the two, so Liu Bowen used a trick to persuade Hu Lan to surrender, and then sent the general Hua Yunlong to pretend to be Zhang Ren, and he returned to Chen Ying all the way, preparing to plan the plan, change the agreed date to August 15, and then set up an ambush halfway to destroy Chen Youliang.
However, when the two arrived in the Northern Han Dynasty, the old marshal Zhang Dingbian over there was scheming, and when he saw that there was a slight impropriety in the behavior of this "Zhang Ren", he gradually became suspicious.
So he made many comments to Chen Youliang, saying that this Zhang Ren was likely to be a fake and ruined the military affairs of the Northern Han Dynasty, but Chen Youliang was stubborn and self-serving, and he didn't stop Zhang Dingbian's opinion at all, and the old man had no choice but to torture Hu Lan secretly.
Hu Lan is a soft bone, he couldn't bear the torture under torture, confessed the truth, Zhang Dingbian determined that Zhang Ren was a guy, and then broke into the palace, destroyed the princess's wedding banquet, and wanted to arrest the spy Hua Yunlong for interrogation.
Chen Youliang was also shocked when he heard this, but out of love for his daughter, he decided to send Hu Lan to confront him, but Hu Lan had committed suicide in fear of crime, and Zhang Dingbian, who lacked witnesses, was loyal, but he couldn't get Chen Youliang's trust, so he could only forcibly make trouble in Huatang and arrest Hua Yunlong at the wedding.
Chen Youliang's authority was challenged, and in a fit of rage, he sent someone to rescue "Zhang Ren", and recovered Zhang Dingbian's handsome seal, relieved the old marshal of his military power, and at the same time, according to the agreement, sent troops on time during the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, Zhang Dingbian tried hard to dissuade and block, but could not recover.
Later, on August 15, Chen Youliang really hit the plan, encountered an ambush in Longshan, and was defeated and lost, but fortunately, Zhang Dingbian secretly led 800 private guards, all dressed as fishermen, ambushed at the mouth of the Jiujiang River, fought bravely, stopped the pursuers, and Chen Youliang was able to escape.
This Jiujiangkou general is this story, and because it involves the generals of the naval army of Chen and Zhu's two camps, Boss Tan chose this play because he wanted the role of Hua Yunlong, who was dressed as a small student, to work underwater, so that such a targeted launch could help Lao Wang to the greatest extent.
"I'll go down too. Mary was not worried about Lao Wang, and interjected.
"At home, you are on the boat with Bamboo, although we have now encountered a common enemy, but the guy on the other side may not become a comrade-in-arms with us, you must hold the gun position on the ship, and if you encounter any situation, you will immediately command the counterattack. Lao Wang waved his hand at Mary, signaling her not to worry, and then pretended to yell a few words to the sailors on the deck, and then took Boss Tan and a group of armed sailors with good water skills to the side of the ship, ready to go into the water to fight.
With a series of commands from Fang Cai, it can be said that Lao Wang's on-the-spot reaction was very fast, and his guesses were also very accurate, and he found a solution at the first time.
However, the sneak attacker didn't seem to want to give him even this little time to react, and before the goblet's wails had subsided, doom descended on the Barrel and the two four-masted ships confronting her at an alarming speed.
After another three terrifying bounces, only Lao Wang and Falconi were left in the originally lively naval battlefield with a total of three boats, as for Ferdinand's round-bellied merchant ship, because Wang Mancang looked down on her combat strength, she was always asked to stay away from the battlefield in advance, and now it is the safest one.
"Wang Ba calf, hide your head and show your belly!" Lao Wang bit the capsule oxygen cylinder in his mouth, and his voice was slightly muffled, but he could still hear a ruthlessness in it: "If you don't give me a way to live, then don't blame me for trying hard." ”
He gave a look to Boss Tan, who had already changed to Huayun Longshui, and the two jumped into the sea with a dozen sailors.
The problem is underwater.
Lao Wang and the others came to the bottom of the White Tulip and were colliding with the enemies who came to attack, these guys who did it were all black, all of them had thick and powerful thighs, and the width of their chests was amazing, and they looked like they could breathe for a long time underwater without the help of equipment.
"Bamboo, when Ferdinand told us that we need to pay attention to the opponent, did he say that there is an African sea tribe that is rich in the best water ghosts in the world?"
"Yes, uncle, Ferdinand's intelligence indicates that there is a maritime tribe from Africa, called the Rama, led by their chieftain Zubita. Takenaka introduced to Lao Wang with a little recollection.
"That's right, they should be what we saw under the sea, let's not talk about this for now, and we'll talk about it when we're done. After receiving the exact information of the enemy, the king said no more, and after saying a word to Takenaka, he paddled with his legs and swam directly to the Rama warriors who were preparing to destroy the White Tulip.
The water ghosts of the Rama tribe held a square package wrapped in black tarpaulin with both hands, and it seemed that they were going to stick it to the bottom of the keel of the White Tulip, needless to say, the contents of the package should be some kind of explosives, and the tragedy of the six ships on both sides jumping in a row just now should be caused by this black package explosives.
The warriors of the Rama tribe were already familiar with this kind of underwater work, and they seemed to be rarely disturbed when they were working in the past, so when they saw Lao Wang and Boss Tan leading people to kill them, all the water ghost warriors had surprised looks on their faces.
However, underwater is their world, their record of victory has always made them full of confidence, and the surprise when they found Lao Wang only lasted for a few seconds, they immediately reacted, some continued to install black package explosives on the bottom of the ship, and the remaining ten or so people pulled out the shark tooth knives under their ribs and rushed over, fighting with Lao Wang and the others.
The pride of the Rama tribe has encountered a great challenge today, although Lao Wang is average in water, but he has the preparation work of Takenaka to lay the foundation, with the capsule oxygen tank, he can fight freely underwater.
In addition, the hunter axe is a heavy weapon, and when fighting underwater, it will be affected by buoyancy, and the power is much inferior to that on land.
Lao Wang met a water ghost rushing straight at him, and he didn't bother to dodge at all, allowing the opponent's shark tooth knife to pierce his chest, and the resistance in the water, combined with his own strong muscles, made the shark tooth knife's only result was to release a touch of red into the nearby seawater.
The Rama warrior originally thought that the other party was a rookie who rushed into the water to meet him, but who knew that the other party was not unable to dodge because of the resistance of the seawater, and he didn't even hesitate after being stabbed in the chest, and directly sent the pitch-black dagger in his right hand into his throat.
In the next second, a large number of red bubbles spread out in the seawater, and the body of the water ghost struggled weakly for a few moments, and then sank to the dark seabed.
After that, there were water ghosts who dared to fight against Lao Wang, he still painted gourds, the tricks used were not very exquisite, but the practicality was strong and terrifying, as long as he was hit by his diving knife, they all changed from water ghosts to real ghosts.
Boss Tan, who is dressed as Hua Yunlong, is even more fierce, his attack and defense power are not as high as Lao Wang, but the panacea attribute of his Peking Opera appearance has really helped him a lot.
Hua Yunlong was originally a fierce general in Zhu Yuanzhang's army, and during the star-studded Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, he may not be a first-class military genius, but he has a very special identity in the mouth of the Jiujiang River in Peking Opera - a general of the naval army.
As the general of the Daming Water Army, Hua Yunlong's underwater kung fu is very good, although Boss Tan only has his shape, but this shape is enough for him to fight against the Rama water ghosts underwater.
Boss Tan held Hua Yunlong's habitual water dividing knife, like a swimming fish churning up and down in the sea, although the water ghost of the Rama clan was also born in dry underwater work, but how could he be an opponent when he met one of the top naval generals in the Ming Dynasty, after a few rounds, Boss Tan found a flaw and sent the water divider into the vital joints, one by one, killing the sea water red.
The so-called brine point tofu, one thing drops one thing, the water ghost that was originally hidden under the water surface, through combat means, even the giant ship can be easily blown to pieces, but never thought that it was put into the water by two killing gods, and there was no room to fight back.
