I am the king in troubled times Chapter 21 The majesty of the starry lake
Song Feng was amused by Zhao Gongzi's performance, the rules in front of people are incomparable, and the people behind are cheating and cheating, which is the performance that a child of this age should have.
The bad weather lasted for half a day, and it stopped at noon.
The two sailors of the Jizi ship were missing, and the Jijia ship was intact, and then Da Gaoqiang ordered to turn the course and make every effort to search and rescue.
At noon on the 12th, the search and rescue were fruitless, and the fleet had no choice but to return.
At this time, the fleet was on the west side of Xingyao Lake, nearly 100 kilometers away from the Jixiang and Great Xia waterways.
Yesterday's storm tortured everyone enough, followed by a tense search and rescue, so there was no exercise mission today, and the ship began to adjust its course with the power of the sail and sailed towards the southeast auspicious.
The deck was full of sailors bathed in the sun, and Zhao Xiaogongzi was mixed in with it, and he was scurrying around with stitches and needles, as if he wanted to get back the amount of activity he had for half a day, and the sturdy woman was guarding the side of the ship.
In the past few days, Zhao Gongzi has become familiar with the sailors on the deck, interspersed with sailors with broken mouths, and among them, a young man with a bare chest and back said to Zhao Yuxin: "Little boy, are you looking for a bird, I have one here, but it's a big deal." ”
"Hahahaha......"
His words caused the men to laugh, and even more, the woman who was guarding the side of the boat began to untie her belt, and took off her essence by dividing it by two.
"It's still so comfortable, how good it is to be uninhibited. ”
"That's it, I'll come too. ”
More and more sailors joined them and began to untie their clothes, and the woman didn't seem to have any sense of shame, but turned sideways and continued to guard Zhao Yuxin with her spare eyes.
"Little boy, do you think my bird is big, or is his bird big?"
Zhao Yuxin looked at the unobstructed sailor in front of him and did not answer, but quickly squatted down, and quickly grabbed his crotch with his right hand.
"Ah~"
The sailor suddenly bowed his body like a shrimp, and his cry was terrible, and the listeners were sad and wept.
At this time, the little boy smiled proudly, and with a wave of his right hand, the handful of black hair was scattered by the wind and fell on the sailors, which immediately caused a commotion, and the lucky ones were ridiculed again, gloating on the side.
"I didn't catch a bird, but I only picked up a few feathers, and I should be able to train my hands quickly. ”
As soon as the bear child's voice fell, he was still laughing at the plucked man, and suddenly pulled up his water uniform and wrapped his lower body tightly, no one wanted to become the object of training in this way.
At this moment, the woman on the side of the boat was full of black lines, and this time she turned around completely, no longer paying attention to Zhao Gongzi, and concentrating on enjoying the lake view.
"Bell Bell Bell ~"
A hurried bell rang from the mast, flags indicating the approach of an unknown ship and the sailors entering combat positions.
This time it was a complete mess, some grabbed their clothes and ran, and the white flowers were not eye-catching in this blue sky and clear water; some got up and put on their pants first, but were knocked down one after another by their running colleagues. The worst is the kind of speculators who wear while running, and they can still make a protective action in advance if they fall, but they are knocked down by their colleagues who are running at high speed behind, at least they have to fall on their heels, and they have to pray not to be trampled by latecomers.
Zhao Xiaogongzi is safe, except for a few scattered pieces around him, he can roll around cleanly. The woman galloped to her arm, and led the young man, who was struggling with his legs, into the conning tower, which was the safest and most impact-resistant on the deck.
After Zhao Yuxin was down-to-earth, he snatched a monocular from the command table, climbed on his 'exclusive' stool and followed everyone's line of sight.
"Aunt Luo, there are a lot of boats there, but they don't seem to be big. ”
The bear child called and began to count to himself.
When the bell rang, the Jizi began to adjust its course, and at this time, it was sailing on the left side of the Jijia ship, and the distance was gradually widening. Although it was about to get out of the possible battlefield, the throwing vehicles in the bow and stern of the ship were already in operation and were ready to be launched.
The unidentified ships in front of the right are getting closer and closer, all of them are wooden boats, some with old sails, some obviously patched, and some with large holes.
"Six, seven, eight, nine, ten, ten. ”
Zhao Gongzi's voice came at the right time, and there were ten enemy ships, whose tonnage was about half of that of Jijia ships, and they were outflanked in a fan-shape, and it was obviously not good.
"Throwing carts ready, with training bombs. Captain Song Feng entered the combat readiness post and ordered.
The decks at both ends were opened, revealing three-foot-square openings, and boxes of stone shells were hoisted out one after another, and the gunners began to reload.
"Put. ”
Under the command of the gunner, four stone projectiles were fired at the wooden boat in front of the side, and after a while, four splashes were stirred up, but they failed to succeed.
"Adjust the elevation angle of the projectile. ”
"Adjusted. ”
"Reload, shoot. ”
This time with better luck, a stone projectile of more than 20 catties hit the mast of one of them, and the mast was suddenly broken in two, and the worn sail fell into the water with half of the wood. Everyone on the boat was panicked for a while, and then became orderly.
"Hit, hit, the log broke and fell into the water. ”
The bear child shouted excitedly, and every time a stone bullet hit an enemy ship, he danced and shouted excitedly; once he missed, he sighed and complained, full of live anchor fan.
The volume and weight of the stone bomb are formulated by comparing the iron bomb, and the lethality of itself is not enough, except for leaving some holes in the deck of the enemy ship and smashing a few unlucky eggs, there is not much to fight against, the seven wooden ships still braved the rain of bullets and rushed into the throwing car within the range of the projectile dead end, and the double release can clearly see the facial expressions of the other party, and the fierce hand-to-hand combat is coming.
"Left rudder five, full speed. ”
"Yes, left-hand drive five, full speed. ”
The Jijia ship seized the prefix 'T' to give full play to the powerful firepower on the starboard side, and the speed was basically the same as that of the opponent at this time.
"Crossbow arrows, shoot. ”
The sound of "whoosh" was endless, and everyone in the command room saw a piece of black galloping towards each other, and those enemy sailors carrying ladders with hooks suddenly fell nearly half, and the rest were also shot on their backs, crying dad and shouting mother, and the scene was full of wailing.
This wave of blows did not discourage the other side, and after separating three chasing Yoshiko ships, the remaining seven began to encircle.
At this time, the Jijia ships were in full swing on both sides, and each salvo would take the lives of several enemies, which further aroused the anger of the other party, and they rushed over desperately.
"Go up the ladder, get up the ladder. ”
The eager command from the other side clearly reached everyone's ears, and the bear child gave up the binoculars, got off the stool, and ran straight out, but was stopped by the woman, no matter how he struggled and made noise, there was no sign of letting go.
"I'll just take a look outside the door, just a look, okay, Aunt Luo?"
After seeing that the series of methods worked as usual, he used the coquettish skills he recently learned from his sister, and in his opinion, it should be tried and tested.
But the woman was not used to Zhao Gongzi's fault, and just one sentence made him stop dying, drooping his head like a frosted eggplant, and reflexively climbed onto the stool, preparing for the second phase of the live broadcast.
At this time, Zhao Gongzi slandered his belly, and he knew that he was looking for my mother, you all know that Young Master Ben is a filial son when he is young, and he will only use this to press me at the critical moment, hum, the troubles of excellent people!
"Boss, there's something strange about this boat, the ladder is unstable, and I just saw sparks at the hooks. A leader-like guy said to the man with a beard on his face and his age.
"Hook the claw with a rope. The bearded man did not hesitate and said in a deep voice.
Immediately, countless flying claws swooped down on the Gilgar, most of them hanging from the iron railings on the side of the ship. Everyone on the wooden boat was overjoyed when they saw this, and after spitting on the palms of their hands, they quickly grabbed the rope and climbed up.
These men really have some ability, and with only their hands can lift the weight of their entire body with the help of slender ropes, and the deck is already within reach, and victory is expected.
However, just as they were about to see the dawn of victory, iron spears flew out of the shooting holes under the decks on both sides, instead of crossbow arrows that were easy to shield and obscure.
A black iron spear as thick as a thumb was constantly waving, and the enemies on the rope were either beaten into the water or stabbed to death and fell into the water.
Now that the arrow is ready to be sent, there is no reason to retreat at this time, so I have to force it.
As a result, the classic offensive and defensive battles at Dongshan Pass reappeared, and some people who were lucky enough to board the ship were also killed by the sailors on the deck with crossbow arrows.
As the stalemate continued, the beard became more and more painful, and the screams and wails from time to time kept beating his inner defense, and he was about to be crushed by the tragedy in front of him.
One by one, the brothers fell, and the people who fell into the water had long since stopped rescuing, and even if they were fished up, they were still corpses.
At this time, he had no idea of going out to get a vote, and only hoped that his brothers could attack the ship, seize the new warship, and then kill all the people on board to give the dead robe to his life.
The so-called greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment, the high hopes of the brothers did not fulfill his ambition, and now three or four out of ten men have been lost, and the situation is still as tragic as the beginning of the broadside battle.
Several of his leaders stared at him with staring at him, and every moment they were left with fewer brothers, and the pain of cutting flesh with blunt knives almost tortured them madly.
"Boss, whether to fight or retreat, you give a word. One of the leaders said loudly, his voice eager.
The bearded man looked at them, then looked at the brothers who were falling from the side of the Jijia ship, gritted his teeth, and said, "Withdraw." ”
"Withdraw!"
When the order came, the people who were still in a state of climbing directly let go of their hands and let themselves fall, slamming heavily on the deck, because this would save their lives.
Song Feng saw that the enemy was about to flee, so he ordered a pursuit, how could such a good opportunity for actual combat training be easily let go.
So the situation was reversed, and the seven wooden ships fled westward, and the three ships that surrounded the Yoshiko fled southward, and then turned westward to make peace with the seven.
The two fighters on this side followed closely, and the throwing vehicles began to attack freely to improve the gunner's actual combat experience, so the frequency was not high.
The speed of the two sides is almost the same, not that the other side is slow, but that the two battleships are 'hybrid' power driven, and the bright wheels on both sides are fast, if you pursue with all your strength, you can crash into the enemy ship in less than half an hour.
At this time, the bearded man wanted to die, he was blind, and he got into such a turtle shell-like thing, not only lost hundreds of brothers, according to the current situation, whether he could escape this catastrophe or not, how can he still have the pride when he came.
