"Good guy, how do you say that word, you can't be idle all day long!" Lao Wang suddenly felt that Mr. Li's lyrics were simply too suitable for the scene he encountered now, and there were many disasters and difficulties, and he simply didn't stop, and he thought about it, so that he read it out casually while being bombarded.

After a simple complaint, Lao Wang immediately raised his head and shouted loudly to the lookout post: "Alice, how is the situation?!"

"It's a ship that has come out of the strait bend like us, the distance is about less than 300 yards, it runs decently, the speed is quite slow, it has been around us for a while, but it has not taken the initiative to attack, so it has only made a routine report, and has not been dealt with as an enemy, hum, it is estimated that we can't see that our speed is higher than theirs, and finally I can't help it!" Mary replied.

It's not cool to be unhappy, but when it comes to naval battles, it's time for this to happen, Lao Wang thought:

In the first long straight channel that is easy to accelerate, because the echelons of the contestants are uneven, and the air race has just begun, most of the contestants will not choose to pinch each other immediately, unless it is a grudge on weekdays, the rest of the people want to run as fast as possible, open up the distance advantage, not only to get the ranking, but also to avoid the naval battle as much as possible.

Then there is the Mona Strait, which is not easy to provoke, and the peculiarities of the sea conditions are there, and the old ones are unable to stand still, so what kind of fight are they talking about? Could it be said that someone would choose to fight someone during an earthquake? It must have escaped first, so here, no one will fight.

However, these two voyages are the race route after all, and although there will not be too many battles, it does not mean that there will be no friction between the participants.

Not to mention anything else, just relying on Lao Wang's continuous "corner overtaking" is enough to constitute a reason for some vicious guys to kill him, so after leaving the strait, there is a great possibility of fighting, and Lao Wang and the team members have done a good job of psychological construction for this.

The construction is not wasted, the enemy is coming!

"I see, I can't blame you before, from now on, the lookout must treat all ships at sea as hostile!

The good days when we could sail comfortably and undisturbed are over, and now we should prepare some snacks for the sharks of the Caribbean, boys!" said the old king, and the joking cheered up a burst of laughter on the deck, the white tulip had been holding back in the swell for too long, and the sailors wanted to see some blood and loosen their muscles!

"Alice, you come down from the lookout post and go to the gun emplacement to direct the shooting!" After the old king finished speaking to Mary, he turned to the gun position and continued to order, "Before your 'duchess' comes down, I will direct the first round of shooting, and now, show me the big babies on the right side of the White Tulip!"

The sailors shouted to each other a rude and energetic trumpet, and according to the order of the old king, the white tulip was armed.

This delicate flower turned into a thorny thorn vine in an instant, and the sailors who had just been tormented by the surge were stimulated by the upcoming battle, and their adrenaline was rushed, and their hands and feet were quick, and they quickly completed the loading of the four-pounder cannon, aiming in the direction where the cannonball had just hit.

It was a ship that looked a lot like the White Tulip, and they were also four-masted galens, both ships were similar in terms of the number of guns loaded and the configuration of deck equipment, but in terms of paint colors and details, the two ships could still be distinguished.

"Fire!" Lao Wang saw that the sailors of the gun position had completed the loading, and he didn't wait for any time at all, he fired directly at the enemy, his gunnery was worse than Mary, but the first round of shelling in the naval battle was originally a test-fired type of play, and it was enough to test Mary with a ruler.

His order was faithfully carried out, and the pellets of 18 four-pounder guns whizzed by, but all in vain, nothing was made except for the column of water, in fact, the enemy's shells just now had the same effect.

In this kind of distance and steering movement, Lao Wang had no intention of inflicting any substantial damage on the enemy at all, and if the water column stirred up by the close miss could wash down a few of the opponent's deck sailors and fall into the sea, it would be considered a victory.

"Hurry up and reload. Mary slid down the rope to the deck, took the command of the gun emplacement from the old king, and said, "Next time I have a bye, I will apply for some rum for each of you!"

The other sailors on deck were all surprised, and some muttered in a whisper, and asked the sailors at the gun emplacements next to them, "What? Do you want to reward rum for a bad fight?"

The sailor smiled wryly, "The reward is true, but the reward will be poured into our noses by Madame herself, I swear, this is the moment I hate rum the most in my life." ”

"Rudder, you know the route, try to make the boat go as smoothly as possible, and she will be handed over to you. Lao Wang said to Zhuzhong, then left the helm in three steps and two steps, rushed to the side of the boat, set up a telescope and began his observation.

Wrong!

This was Lao Wang's first reaction after seeing the situation on the other party's ship.

On the four-masted sailing ship that resembles the White Tulip on the opposite side, there is no inscription of the ship's name, and if you look closely, there is no special flag of their own hanging on the mast, just a black flag of all colors, and there is no pattern at all, and it is impossible to identify what the identity is.

The most strange thing is that Lao Wang saw that on the opposite deck, the commander was a middle-aged man with an axe on his back, the commander of the cannon was a fair woman, and the helm was a child, and the one who commanded the sailors on the deck was a young man!

Isn't this the configuration of white tulips?

Although these people are completely different from Lao Wang and the others, this kind of staffing is too coincidental!

If the captain and deck dignitaries can barely explain, out of all the contestants, who would use a woman as the captain of the gun, and who would use a half-grown child to take the helm, well, even if there were both, what were the chances of it happening at the same time?

There is only one conclusion, this is not a coincidence, it is artificially arranged!

"There's something strange about the boat on the other side!" Lao Wang didn't have time to say this discovery in the team channel first, so he could only inform the whole ship loudly: "They shouldn't be normal ships, be careful and be prepared to deal with them." ”

"Uncle, what did you find?" Takenaka knew that Lao Wang would definitely not be able to throw all his words on the deck, and after listening to Lao Wang's warning, he immediately asked in the team channel.

Lao Wang explained what he saw in detail in the team channel, and then said: "The general situation is like this, let me explain first, the opposite side must be very different from us in terms of appearance details, but there is an inexplicable similarity, this is my feeling." ”

Takenaka continued with Lao Wang's words: "Uncle is right, there are ships and personnel with exactly the same configuration as us among the contestants, I don't believe it, besides, when Uncle was talking just now, I specifically looked at the selector beacon, and the guy opposite us is not a selector!"

"If it's not a selector, then this kind of configuration is more strange, this era is still very particular about women and children on board, and it is absolutely impossible to be the same as us, so how to explain this situation?" asked Lao Wang.

"Simple, I think, it should be an obstacle set up by the contestants, it can be regarded as a kind of test for us, after completing a dangerous voyage, immediately after the naval battle, but the scale of the fight is not large enough for the contestants, then, the contestants think that creating some enemies to come out and engage us, according to my guess, it should be that all ships will encounter such a situation when they pass through the exit of the Mona Strait. Takenaka said firmly.

"If the boss of Takenaka said so, I would know what was going on. Tan Liang said suddenly.

"Boss Tan, hurry up and talk about it, you know that you don't say it easily, and what you say is constructive. Lao Wang hurriedly said.

"I control the deck, I hear a lot of small talk from the sailors, and one guy once told me that the Mona Strait has a name called the Sea of Mirrors. Boss Tan said.

"What does this mean?" asked Mary, "The waves are so big, doesn't it seem like the water is like a mirror?"

"Not the water, but the strait itself. Tan Liang explained: "It is at the exit of the Mona Strait, the ups and downs of Hispaniola and Puerto Rico are very similar, like mirror images, the islands on both sides seem to look at each other, hence the name." Tan Liang paused and said: "Could it be that our ship has also been copied, of course, not completely copied, just a god-like copy, but in the end, the purpose of the big game is not to let us fight against god-like replicas?"

If we don't know about the rumors of Mirror Island, it's really not easy to think of this aspect, and I think it's very reasonable for Big Horn to say that. "Old Wang.

Even if Mr. Tan Liang didn't fully tell what happened, this guess would not be too far from the truth.

I also think that the method of the contest is to ask us to fight against replicas, but another point is that now, we have nearly 300 participating ships, can we say that we should make replicas of each boat?

Not to mention that, the tournament also had to recruit sailors and a sufficient number of seamen suitable for commanding battles, which would be too big for even the Spanish Chamber of Commerce to afford. Takenaka analyzed: "The biggest possibility is that the props of the mysterious power are still used, and what we are entering now is also an independent space, which looks like the sea, but if we don't win, we can't go out!"

"You don't guess things for no reason, bamboo, what evidence is there to prove your inference?" asked Wang.

"Very solid evidence, and it's very simple, uncle, you see, the beacon map represents our four red dots, and they have not continued to move. The little guy pointed to his light curtain and motioned for the rest of the people to take a look for themselves.

That's true.

The red dot beacon of the four old kings has stopped operating, even if the white tulip is still sailing on the sea, they have not moved at all, Takenaka's prediction does not seem to be bad, and they can't handle the ship on the other side, and their invincible uncle team is afraid that they will not be able to get out of this sea.

"Then you don't have to be polite, according to our usual combat mode, how to fight, how to fight, imposters, will we still lose?" Lao Wang Chang was under the red flag, and mixed in places like vegetable farms, and hated the behavior of counterfeiting and selling counterfeits, and when he heard the analysis of Takenaka, he immediately said that he would go to war.

"Okay, now that it's decided, let's concentrate, the cannonballs on the opposite side are coming again!" Mary reminded the crowd.

"Grandma's, is it really a mirror ship copied from our data? How do I feel that the firing gap is faster than ours?" muttered the old king, obediently hiding behind the ship's board.

The ship on the opposite side, which everyone calls the Pseudo-White, began to cut its course inward, and at the same time as it was close to the White Tulip, it fired a second salvo, which was very similar to Lao Wang's favorite use of distance shooting.

"Are we so annoying when we usually fight?" Lao Wang was a little depressed, he usually dealt with the enemy, how to fight without calling it excessive, but when these tactics returned to him as they were, how could he feel that things were so uncomfortable.

"That's it, Uncle always says that we want to be objective and fair. Takenaka said to Lao Wang: "It's not bad to think about it this way, in short, we are the enemies in the type that will be divided into 'difficult' by everyone, this is a compliment in disguise." ”

"You won't be able to relax in a while, bear child!" Lao Wang said a sentence in Zhuzhong, and then turned to a normal voice state, and shouted loudly at the whole ship: "Everyone pay attention, resist the shelling, the deck dignitaries prepare the wounded transfer team, increase the gun position, give me a fierce counterattack!"

"Boom, boom, boom~~hiss!" came the sound of artillery bombardment and the whistling of cannon pellets, and for a gun commander like Mary, who was already very experienced in handling artillery at sea, this special cry alone was enough to judge what the flying shells were.

The beautiful reporter's willow eyebrows are upside down, her heart and between her eyebrows are the boss's pimples, and her sexy thick lips are shaking with anger.

The howling sound was not sharp, and there was some obscure meaning in the end, which showed that the other party's cannon pellets were not petty, and they weighed at least four pounds.

"Gun position sailors, hide behind sandbags, anti-artillery!" Mary had only time to shout at such a voice, when the rain of four-pound shells on the opposite side arrived, and the hull of the White Tulip was tough, but it was ravaged by the big hands of the four-pounder guns, and the sawdust danced like startled butterflies, scattered all over the ship.

4 out of 18, the results of this cut into the artillery bombardment of the pseudo-white number are not small!

"Phew!" said Mary, spitting out the sawdust in her mouth, and stood up from behind the sandbag, one less of her gun position sailors, and the unfortunate man was swept directly in the shoulder by the four-pounder gun, and even half of his body was gone, looking miserable, but these things have long been accustomed to fighting at sea!

"They're still reloading, and what about us?" asked Mary exclaiming.

"It's already filled, ma'am!" the sailors roared in response.

"What should I do?!" asked Mary again.

"Shoot them!" the sailors were excited, and were inflamed by Mary's blood.

"Then what are you waiting for!
