Chapter 973: Encounter with the Spanish Fleet

The book demon informed Zhang Fan about the situation in China, Zhang Fan was very happy, and he didn't expect that things were going smoothly over there. So he asked the book demon to hurry back to preside over the affairs over there and exchange Akon back. Because it seems that on the Chinese side, the Ming government wants to build an ocean-going fleet, which is not a short matter, and it is estimated that it will take at least one or two years.

Then the Caribbean side also needs to develop, and it also has to deal with all parties, and a flexible wise man like Akon must be in command. And the book demon, with its profound knowledge base, is more suitable for construction and development.

Not to mention that the book demon found the giant turtle and turned back to China. Zhang Fan Green Wing took two legendary ships to the sea, and strangely steered the canoe to Captain Baka's hiding harbor base.

After more than a week of sailing, as soon as I reached the sea near the bay of San Nicolas, I noticed the rumbling sound of cannons on the sea in the distance! Looks like a naval battle is taking place! Listening to the rhythm and frequency of the cannon, there are quite a few ships involved! Could it be that a large pirate group is plundering a large merchant fleet?

Green Wing immediately summoned his mount, 'Bai Ze', and flew into the air to go to the scout. I was amazed to find out what was ahead! It turns out that where the pirate group is looting, it is clear that the Spanish Caribbean fleet is suppressing bandits! And the pirate suppressed is none other than the 'Caribbean Alliance' initiated by Zhang Fan's team!

Could it be Caterina and Captain Hook's fleet? But they hadn't already gone to Panama to ask for help, and they should still be on their way at this time, so why were they stopped by the Spanish fleet here, and they were still carrying the fleet?

But the battle situation below does not allow Green Wing Zhang Fan to think too much, because the fleet of Caterina and Captain Hook is falling into full disadvantage! Because now their pirate fleet is still those old three-masted armed sailing ships. Both in terms of the number of warships and the number of guns, it is obvious that they will fall into disadvantage.

Fortunately, most of this fleet has been transformed into fast Galen-type warships, and the range of the guns is relatively long, so these six three-masted armed galleons are still maneuvering with more than a dozen large Spanish galleons in the Spanish fleet!

"These two fools must have returned to base and brought a bunch of pirates out to rescue us. They didn't go to Panama! I thought that with more manpower, I would be able to deal with the 'Tree of the Dead'. "Greenwing knows these two pirate leaders well. During this time, she fought with Caterina and Captain Hook, and made their tempers clear.

"Well, the Spanish fleet has been looking for them for a long time. They did too much work a while ago, and before they could avoid the limelight, they appeared in this place of right and wrong. Hehe, how can I stand by the river without getting my shoes wet......" Zhang Fan said helplessly.

"What to do? That fleet seems to be the main force of the Spanish Caribbean Fleet, and if they are defeated and captured, our base will be exposed! Greenwing was a little anxious.

Zhang Fan took a deep breath, "Then let's try the power of our two ships, even if we can't win, we have to buy them some time to escape." These two daredevils ......"

…………

Enrikis waited for more than a month in this pirate-infested area, and finally found out that it might be the fleet of the mysterious pirate group that had plundered more than a dozen Spanish merchant ships a while ago. This fleet is very rampant, and it seems that there is some task in a hurry, and it wants to break through the blockade of its own fleet and break through with its own speed! If it weren't for the large number of ships in the fleet, they would have really run away......

Caterina and Hook were in a hurry, and they didn't expect to go back to mobilize men, and as soon as they showed up, they were unlucky enough to meet the Spanish Caribbean fleet. And it's his own enemy Enrikis who personally leads the team! Originally, he wanted to force his way through and escape with the speed of the ship. But there are too many opposing ships, and they are entangled in this sea area, and it is difficult to get out!

When he was anxious, two strange ships sailed over the sea in the distance. A very majestic, clearly Baron Shi Fan's flagship 'Holy Fox'! The other turned out to be a giant tree that had fallen on the sea? And this giant tree looks so familiar? No matter how you look at it, it looks like the eerie 'tree of the dead' seen in Florida......

The 'St. Furnished' took the lead, rushed into the middle of the Spanish fleet, and crashed straight into the opposing flagship! It was a majestic Spanish galleon! More than eighty cannons, which can terrify the entire Caribbean warship! With the firepower of one ship, he can handle an entire pirate fleet!

There is actually a warship that dares to attack itself! Enrikis didn't think it was funny, the guy who drove the boat probably drank too much rum and thought he was driving God's ark!

"Starboard fire ready to sink that brave ship!" Enrikis decided to wait for his opponent with the strongest firepower.

"Boom, boom, boom!" A barrage of cannon fire swept across the sea! The gunpowder smoke completely obscured the gunner's view. But they don't have to see what's ahead. More than 40 naval guns fired in unison, and the opponent rushed straight again, and even if it was not sunk, it was bombarded to pieces......

But ten seconds later, in the misty smoke, a faint lion's roar sounded, and then a blue-black collision horn, flashing with thunder, broke through the waves, and rushed over!

What's even more terrifying is that above the deck of his own ship, an ethereal and mournful chant suddenly sounded, and a pillar of light with a diameter of more than ten meters fell from the sky and shot straight onto the deck of Enrikis's flagship! At the end of the sky of the pillar of light, it was as if a heavenly gate had opened, and a six-winged seraphim slowly descended from the heavenly gate......

The Seraph seemed to be very angry, seemingly slowly, but it only came to the deck in the blink of an eye, and a giant sword with holy fire in his hand slashed the deck fiercely! The sword seemed to be about to split Enrikis's flagship in half! Wherever the Holy Sword passed, the hull of the ship quickly decayed under the burning of the Holy Flame, and one of the back masts even fell due to the decay of the part that was struck by the Holy Sword!

Miracles! Most of the sailors on deck were Catholics, they threw away their weapons and fell to their knees! Enrikis, a true knight himself, was amazed at such a miracle! What is the reason for the Lord's wrath! He even sent a Seraphic Angel to punish his own warship?! Is it because I am not religious enough? Or is it a desecration of holy relics?

Before Enrichis could react, the seemingly reckless battleship had already rushed closer! Although it looked like it had been blown up to pieces, the mast had been broken, and there were several large holes in the hull, the flickering thunder, the terrifying blue-black waterline crashing into the waves, stabbed obliquely into the hull of Enrikis's flagship!

What's going on? Just now it was two hundred meters away? Could it be a shock ship combat skill! Enrikis's flagship shook heavily, and the sailors on the lower deck let out a terrified scream! Viewed from the outer sea, you can see a terrible scar, and at the location of Enrikis's flagship waterline, there is still an electric light!

Enrikis' flagship was much taller than the St. Francis, with three decks densely packed with cannon holes. But at this moment, the hull of the ship shook by the 'Holy Monkey', and the gunners in the running position could not reload and fire. As a result, only a few shots were sporadic on the stern of the 'St. Monkey'.

And the 'Holy Fox' also began to fire back at close range, and in the barrel of the bronze Holy Light Cannon, a dazzling ball of holy light swirled and condensed, spitting out at the flagship hull of Enrikis! The Holy Light Cannonball is a spiritual attack, so the Holy Light Regiments pierced through the bulkhead of the opponent's starboard ship, reducing the durability of the entire ship a lot!

Although the Holy Light cannonball didn't punch a big hole in the hull like a physical cannonball. Moreover, the hull of the other party, under the protection of the Spanish royal coat of arms on the flagship sail, laid down layers of defensive barriers, canceling out the effect of the Holy Light Regiment. But the part that was hit still seemed to be in disrepair and began to decay.

If such an attack reaches saturation, then the opponent's hull will collapse due to decay, and there will be no chance to repair it. However, the various statues on the hull of the ship began to flicker, quickly recovering the damage to the hull caused by the Holy Light cannonballs! It seems that this kind of spiritual power attack can cause limited damage to this powerful flagship.

After a round of attacks, in order to avoid the physical shelling of the opponent, the "Holy Fox" took advantage of the influence of the miracle of the opponent, and before it could react, a right full rudder, the propeller rotated at high speed, pulled a beautiful arc on the sea surface, and quickly broke away from Enrikis's flagship shelling area.

Just as Enrikis breathed a sigh of relief, he saw that the strange battleship got out of the way, and a huge driftwood floated from behind it! It's as if a giant tree has been washed up on the surface of the sea, and it doesn't look like a threat. So Enrikis asked the sailors to quickly repair the hole in the waterline and steer the ship to avoid the huge driftwood.

On the lookout at the top of the mainmast of Enrikis's flagship, the lookout saw that something strange had happened to the giant tree floating on the sea. I saw that many fruits and tree tumors suddenly cracked on the crown and main trunk of the tree, and in each fruit and tree nodule, a strange humanoid monster came out. And in the huge hole in the tree, there are many of the same dry monsters crawling out! That's a staggering amount!

These withered monsters, still wearing cracked bark armor and a deadwood bow in their hands, moved swiftly to climb the giant trees and shoot arrows at the crew of Enrikis's flagship in various poses!

"Whoosh!" A withered arrow flashed blue light magnified in the lookout's eye, and the lookout, who had no way to dodge, let out a terrible howl and was shot in the right eye. Then his entire head began to be lignified, and his skull burst open like a parched nodule, sprinkling a cloud of sawdust. Good archery skills! What a scary archery!

More dead arrows rained down, and the dense rain of arrows was not even won by the number of coverage, but by the accuracy of each arrow! Because a lot of pruning turned out to be drilled into the narrow hole of the cannon and shot the gunner in the corner! Frightened, those gunners immediately pulled back the cannon, closed the cannon hole, and hid in the gun compartment to pray!
