As soon as Lu Yuan swung the rudder, the "Kraken" greeted it proudly!

The ship that came was slightly larger than the Kraken, a four-star Brig brig. With a speed of 15 knots, a turn of 45, 16 24-pounder guns and a crew of about 150 men, this sailing ship was the ideal fighting ship in the hands of pirates.

The sails of this type of ship are equipped with four layers of crosssails because of the main and auxiliary masts, three mule sails in the bow, diagonal sails in the back, and sometimes Bermuda spinnakers between the masts. This kind of sail guarantees a good sailing speed, whether downwind or against the wind. The disadvantage is, of course, the disadvantage of the crosssail compared with the longitudinal sail, and the wind is not agile enough.

This type of sail was pioneered by the legendary French battleship "Sun King", and quickly spread throughout the Atlantic, and the most suitable for use was the four-star Brig brig, so it is very recognizable. Lu Yuan had already obtained enough information from Ye Zi before, and saw that the ships and sails were consistent, although the flag was not Morgan's, but his subordinates sometimes hung their own designed flags in an ingenious way, so Lu Yuan still did not hesitate to greet him!

The two sides were separated by a hundred meters on the sea, and both slowed down.

Lu Yuan took an appraisal from afar, and the feedback was actually "special ships, unable to be identified", which made him a little uncomfortable.

The afternoon sun shines from the west, reflecting the gently undulating waves on the sea like a sea of gold.

Perhaps it was because of the performance of the battle of Luyuan Coral Island that Storm became his "golden finger". So since then. The goddess of the sea changed her strategy - every time he had to fight, the wind never exceeded level 2. Let the elegant duel like a martial arts master be directly reduced to hand-to-hand combat in the boxing ring.

There was no wind. Without big waves, Lu Yuan couldn't play more tricks, which made the battle of the "Kraken" more and more difficult.

When the wind is calm, limited to the level of the gunners, and after the lack of various environmental factors, the hit rate actually decreases, but it is not obvious. In contrast, in light winds, the boat moves slowly. The drop is more about the success rate of dodging shelling. This forced Lu Yuan to perform more calculations to predict the angle and direction of the shot. But most of the time, when the opponent has superior firepower, Lu Yuan will adopt the strategy of splitting and attacking, or simply abandon the target.

As if they had a tacit understanding, after entering the maximum range of 100 meters, the two slow-moving ships began to raise their sails and suddenly began to accelerate!

"Set sail! Pull up all the sails, I need power! Lu Yuan shouted, and the ship was under his control. The nimble start of the steering, the speed is unimaginable, it is actually a breezy afternoon!

"Port side!" Lu Yuan's arm stretched out to the left, and the gunners pounced as fast as they could! They gasped, flexed their muscles, shouted trumpets, and encouraged each other. Pushed a cannon loaded with a cannon out of the cannon!

The shiny cast-iron muzzle shines quietly in the afternoon sun!

“Fire!” When the cannon is pushed out, the sail, the hull posture and the angle of fire. Just the perfect timing. Lu Yuan, who created this opportunity, did not hesitate to order the shelling! "Let's say hello first!"

The gunners lit the fuse in unison, and they could already tell when Lu Yuan was asking for a salvo. When is it a gradual shot.

"Artillery shelling!" Jacques on the lookout shouted loudly, and Lu Yuan glanced at the position of the other party's ship. The sides are facing each other, and they are also in a good position! Lu Yuan turned the boat slightly to the side and avoided it to a certain extent. By this time, the deafening sound of artillery bombardment sounded, and the smoke of gunpowder like a wall rose on the side of the ship on both sides, and the salvo of the side guns was officially activated!

"Circumvent!" Hearing the strange whistling sound of the opponent's shells, it was exactly like a swarm of bees returning to the nest, and rushed straight towards the "Kraken"! Lu Yuan frowned, and tried his best to steer the ship to dodge the other party's shelling, while loudly ordering the sailors on the deck to hide! Without saying a word, the sailors used the most direct movements to go down to the side of the ship, and the cargo pile and other places got in! On the deck, in an instant, only Lu Yuan was still standing there straight.

"Woo~woo~" The projectiles of the cannonballs tore at the strange sound of the wind, and one by one they flew close to the hull of the ship! Everyone hidden was praying nervously and holding their breath. Towards the end of the shelling, "Bang! There was a loud bang, and finally a cannonball grazed the stern of the ship, cutting half of the captain's cabin!

The Kraken had a cut in its buttocks, as if it had been bitten by a vicious dog. The sailors who got up looked at Captain Lu Yuan in awe, knowing that the cannonball was hitting his feet just now! But Lu Yuan stood there steadily, not even with a frightened expression.

Lu Yuan turned the rudder expressionlessly, no one was in the captain's room now, except for Elizabeth's playthings, there was probably no other loss. Lu Yuan swore that he would never deliberately not hide in order to renovate the captain's room!

The other party's shelling was unexpectedly accurate! If he hadn't dodged just now, it would have been 7 out of 12, a level that could no longer be measured by the level of the Caribbean! Lu Yuan always thought that only he could do it, and in this era, accurate long-range shooting, "It's like having a computer!" ”

"August, go and see what we're going to lose. Jacques! Jacques! He beckoned to Jacques on the lookout and urged him, "Report the results!" "Jacques also seems to have something wrong today, and at this time in the past, he has already taken the initiative to report the effects of the shelling.

"Captain! Can't report! It...... Being the same as us! Jacques couldn't find the right words to describe it. Lu Yuan opened his mouth wide in surprise, just like us? They are also hiding in the smoke of gunpowder ?! Bastard!

When the ships fired a salvo, due to the insufficient combustion of gunpowder in this era, a wall of heavy smoke would be generated on the sea! In the sea conditions, where there are now only two-level winds, the smoke produced by each salvo. It takes at least two hours to completely dissipate. So Lu Yuan likes to hide behind the smoke of gunpowder and make some small moves after shooting...... Lu Yuan looked at the hull of the ship he was turning. It can't be that the other person is doing the same thing, right?! Suddenly the waterfall sweats!

Lu Yuan originally planned to make a blind shot on the side of the ship under the cover of gunsmoke! According to Lu Yuan's prediction. At least eighty percent sure of the hit! But if the other party thinks the same way...... Isn't TM going to explode each other?! Because the line of sight is obscured by the smoke of gunpowder, you can't see the angle and direction of the opponent's shot, and it is impossible to dodge when the time comes!

Since this is the case, Lu Yuan didn't have time to think about it, and took advantage of the fact that the hull was now horizontal, and directly manipulated the sail to turn, and crossed out of the dense gunsmoke. Since you want one step, then I'm going to think about two! Lu Yuan pointed the port side of the ship behind the gunsmoke on the opposite side, and then lowered the speed of the ship to guard there. Roaring, urging the gunners to reload the guns on the starboard side!

Lu Yuan was waiting for the other party to waste the starboard gun and attack the position before the Kraken! At that time, when the opponent leaked his position, our starboard and starboard guns were full...... Oh roar roar! Lu Yuan excitedly "rattle" and clutched his fingers.

Ten seconds later, without waiting for the shelling, what was waited for was that the other side also came out of the smoke from a symmetrical position......

Lu Yuan was dumbfounded, and TMD thought of going together?! What kind of birdman is on the other side?! It's so obscene! Actually want to yin me.

Opposite side...... At this moment, I obviously thought the same way! The most obvious manifestation is that the bow of the ship shakes from side to side. Apparently the captain was so surprised that the rudder was out of his hands!

"Your sister!" Lu Yuan scolded, "One group and two groups go to the bow of the boat!" The Brig brig did not have a pursuit gun! Let's play hedge with him! "The pursuit gun is mounted on the bow of the ship, and the muzzle of the gun is pointed towards the battery directly ahead. Lu Yuan sent the two most accurate groups of gunners to operate the pursuit guns, because Lu Yuan could control the ship's left and right swing to control the target of the side guns. But it was difficult for the ship to do the swing of the front and back, so the aim of the pursuit gun could only rely on the gunner.

Now the position of the two ships is just opposite the bow of the ship, and Lu Yuan rushed straight over. Due to the short distance, the other party can only hedge. At this point, you will be kicked in the ass and jump! Your sister, you don't have a chaser. How to fight me!

The Kraken rushed over arrogantly, and the first double cannon fire from the pursuit cannon hit the plane directly. The gunner has not relied on his own aiming to shoot & gun for a long time, and it is obvious that he is handy. At this time, on the deck of the bow of the opposite ship, a large puff of white smoke rose violently!

"What's that?" Lu Yuan muttered a little puzzled.

"Mortar! They have mortars! Lu Yuan suddenly heard Jacques roar in a transfigured voice, as if he was frightened.

"Mortar?" Lu Yuan was slightly puzzled, and suddenly understood, your sister! It's a large-caliber mortar! It's no wonder that Lu Yuan didn't expect that in this era, when ordinary direct-fire guns generally have a low hit rate, large-caliber short-barreled curved guns can have a magic horse and be accurate? ! At this time, the mortar should have been mounted on the gunboat, used to bombard such a huge target as the fortress on the coast!

But the other party has a computer at TMD!

At this time, the mournful whistling sound had fallen from the sky! It was so stimulated that Lu Yuan's scalp began to tingle!

"Turn! You TMD transfer it to me! Lu Yuan turned the rudder rapidly, but the ship could only move clumsily to the right. As a result, when the ship was only moving less than 30 centimeters, the mortar cannonball's cannonball smashed down! This cannon hit accurately and ruthlessly, first with a "click", just rubbing against one side, and cutting the ship's lookout in half!

After that, the falling shells smashed into the auxiliary mast, splitting the mast in two! The auxiliary mast, with its rolled canvas and cables, rumbled inward!

"Jacques! Jacques, how are you?! Jacques! Seeing Jacques being knocked away by the trembling lookout, and then falling into the pile of canvas when the mast fell, Lu Yuan could only shout and command the crew to go to the rescue immediately.

"I'm fine...... Who's going to save me! "The auxiliary mast fell towards the mainmast, tearing a big hole in the main mate sidesail on the mainmast! Fortunately, the sailors on deck dodged in time. In the pile of canvas where the sails were involved, Jacques's cries for help rang out. He dodged the shell, but was slapped like a fly by the side sail, which was really unlucky! Lu Yuan was a little relieved, in the Caribbean, as long as it is not enough to be fatal in trauma and disability, you will be a good man again with a bottle of rum!

It's just that the sails were destroyed, and the speed of the "Kraken" plummeted!

Lu Yuan frowned. It was actually yin? Mortars can be fired so accurately, your sister must have a computer! Let you hang up! Lu Yuan didn't want to think about it. He yelled at the Brig Brig Galleon, which was about to turn around fifty meters away, "Fireball Technique!! ”

Doug the parrot flying past him. With a scream, he fell from the air and shook like he was drunk. "Twinkle and twinkle, the sky is full of little stars...... Mom, I'm so scared~! ”

In the parrot's ridiculous nursery rhyme, a large dark fireball burst out from Lu Yuan's palm, whistling towards the opponent's ship! Although the other party's ship is urgently evading, it is a pity that ...... "Lao Tzu's fireball can turn around!" With Lu Yuan's rampant shouting, the fireball drew a slight arc. It crashed into the mainsail of the Brigg brig and exploded into a huge fireball with a diameter of 30 feet. Countless fires inside will light several sails together!

The speed of the opponent's ship also had to be reduced.

At this time, there is no need for the ship to operate! The boat rushed straight towards the other party's hull, Lu Yuan put away the cloud dragon spear, pulled out the "Tanatos" bayonet and the "narwhal" scimitar and stood at the bow of the boat, and rushed over directly when he was about to approach! Kill!

This battle really made him angry! His gaze patrolled the opponent's deck like an eagle, and if the opponent had any action to carry gunpowder, he would definitely blast it over with a fireball! It's just that at this time, the sails of the other party are burning violently. The flames rained down on the deck, and everyone was carrying the gunpowder bags to the bottom compartment, for fear of causing an explosion, and it seemed that they didn't care about the cannons.

When you get close to the range of more than ten meters.

Lu Yuan slammed it with a scimitar and a bayonet. The sound of the cold spread far away on the surface of the sea! Lu Yuan pointed forward with his scimitar and roared, "Edward! Come to war! With that, he lunged a few steps. Kicked the deck hard with his feet, and jumped over with the cable!

When he landed heavily on the deck of the opposing ship. He didn't find the captain of the other party, and even the crew of the other party was far away from him! He glanced around. The rudder was empty, and there was only one black man on deck, directing the firefighting.

Lu Yuan looked around, a feeling of anxiety spread, and the whole thing was constantly out of control. Just when he couldn't help but want to kill the other party's crew, he suddenly felt his scalp tingle!

Lu Yuan didn't think about it, and crossed his swords to block on the ground, only to hear "Keng!! With a loud bang, he blocked the double hidden swords that crossed and stabbed down when the opponent jumped off the mast! The man pounced with the help of the mast, and the force was so great that Lu Yuan's arms shook and he took a step back.

But that person also didn't expect Lu Yuan to be able to parry! A man in a gray waistcoat and a hood was shocked by the rebounding force and flew backwards, flipped his head in the air, and landed five steps away.

"I'm Edward!" He said.

Looking at his tight-fitting outfit and strength that was at least the pinnacle of silver, Lu Yuan frowned, "People from the Assassin Brotherhood? ”

"It's not!" The man on the opposite side replied stiffly, "click" twice, the hidden blade retracted into the sleeve, and then pulled out two British swords from his waist and put on a naval swordsmanship shelf. Lu Yuan saw that he still had four short muskets stuck in his body, and he was simply armed to the teeth!

"It's good if it's not!" Lu Yuan rushed forward violently. He trembled unintentionally, and when he raised his true qi, the heavy "narwhal" scimitar slammed into the sky with a strange wind direction!

Edward stretched out his left sword to block at an angle.

Unfortunately, he didn't expect how much force there was on that knife! Edward only felt that his left hand was hit by an elephant, and he made a gurgling sound of bone cracking, and the tiger's mouth exploded, and his entire left arm lost sensation! The stabbing sword was even more "sonorous", and it was spun and flew away, and the sword body was bent like a ruler!

"Send you to God!" The stabbing sword in Lu Yuan's left hand rose like a snake, and stabbed directly at Edward's chest, looking like he was about to pierce him!

But at that moment, another figure jumped down from the mast and thrust between the two men, blocking Edward's side. He also used two Hidden Blades, crossed into a cross shape, in an attempt to hold off Lu Yuan's stabbing sword. But Lu Yuan's sword infused with true qi, how could it be easy to block? As soon as the three blades touched slightly, the opponent rolled backwards as if they had been electrocuted! Lu Yuan's "Tanatos" was also deflected, crossed by Edward's side, and directly penetrated the main mast with a thick bowl mouth on the side!

With a "stab", Lu Yuan indifferently pulled out his sword, and crossed the sword and knife in front of him.

"It's you?! What the hell do you Assassin Brotherhood mean you're always getting me in trouble?! Lu Yuan stared at the man who was pushing Edward back. Although that guy was also dressed as an assassin brotherhood and wore a hood to cover his face, Lu Yuan happened to know him! That person was the same person Lu Yuan had met when he first entered the Caribbean, Rayser, the Master Assassin of the Assassin Brotherhood!

"You know me? Who are you?! Rayser said warily.

Only then did Lu Yuan realize that his appearance had changed, he shook his head and stopped explaining, and returned his gaze to the captain Edward. "I've got to kill this guy! Is he representing himself or the Assassin Brotherhood?! ”

"He's the object of our expedition......" Rayser crossed his Hidden Blade again, blocking Edward's side, "Besides, aren't you worried about the ship over there?" It seems to be coming at you. ”

When Lu Yuan looked up in the direction he signaled, he couldn't help but be taken aback again! (Although it is said that the mood is invisible, it seems to be very high.) However, mood and anger are more conducive to relieving stress and living a healthy life. ）

Another Brig brig appeared at the end of Lu Yuan's line of sight, the same sail, the same hull, the only difference is that Nima's pirate flag this time is Morgan's!

"You're not Morgan's men?" Lu Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"It's not! I have nothing to do with that notorious guy! The young man who was the captain replied, he was wrapping the wound on his left hand, his eyes were staring at Lu Yuan viciously.

"Isn't this ship the Seawolf?"

"This is the Jackdaw!"

"Then I'll call Edward, you promise a P!" Lu Yuan is crazy!

The young man was silent for a moment before he replied indignantly, "My name, Edward. Duncan! ”

Lu Yuan opened his mouth wide in an "ah" shape, and the captain sent by Morgan was called Edward. Luo, Nima always felt that she was cheated again......

"Then what are you looking for me?" Lu Yuan asked depressedly, as soon as we met, I raised the black flag, you said that you were passing by and was beaten by me, will I believe it?

"Get out of Nassau!" The young man straightened up and looked Lu Yuan in the eye, "There are only a bunch of people here who are looking for freedom!" We are not any country, much less Morgan's lackeys! ”

"Shet!" Lu Yuan scolded, didn't even explain anything, directly cut a cable, grabbed it and jumped back to his boat. "Get out of now! Otherwise, I will fight with you! ”

He threatened and walked away. At this time, Lu Yuan had already remembered that the mission item "Napoli's Wanted" in his hand was not just to find the "Jackdaw" to exchange for a ship upgrade?! Your sister actually had a fight with the quest NPC!

In the distance, Edward and the others could still hear Lu Yuan shouting, "Fix the sails, clean the deck!" Let go of this weak chicken! We still have an uphill battle to fight! (To be continued......)
