Chapter 120: Scattershots
There was a battle here, and the surrounding ships distanced themselves, but they didn't leave, and they actually scattered around to watch the excitement with a tacit understanding.
The waves were tumbling around the Crescent, and in less than three minutes, blood was pouring out, staining the sea water into a red glow.
With a few screams, corpses began to float upward, the bodies of the people who scuttled the ship, and the sailors on the Crescent Moon also lost a few people.
The battle ended quickly, and in about two minutes, the shipwreckers were all killed by the sailors, and the ropes were lowered on the Crescent Moon and the ten sailors who were alive were pulled onto the ship.
Donner stood in the helm tower, silently with a cold face, and watched as the small fishing boats around him began to pick up speed.
The man on the small fishing boat picked up the oars and paddled quickly, pushing the boat towards the Crescent.
More than two dozen white lines of water crossed the calm bay, and dozens of breaths came to the side of the Crescent Moon and Haike No. 1, surrounding the two ships.
The Crescent Moon and Haike 1 had already been forced to slow down, and the two-masted ship behind arrived at this time, and without slowing down, it crashed into the Crescent in a daze.
The helmsman on the Crescent spun quickly to the left rudder, and the stern swung slightly to the side, and the bow of the two-masted ship slammed into the back of the Crescent's hull.
The two boats shook suddenly, shaking non-stop, and the people on board grabbed the fixed objects and stabilized their bodies.
The bow of the two-masted ship brushed against the hull of the Crescent and continued to slide forward, making a harsh grinding sound.
The Crescent Moon was slightly higher than the two-masted ship, about a meter or so, and standing on the deck, it was just enough to look down on the people on the ship, and this distance was enough to clearly see the expressions of the people on board.
"Stand up the shield, they're going to release the arrows. Hans yelled.
At this time, the people on the small fishing boats began to move, and one by one they picked up their hooks, flicked the ropes, and threw the hooks onto the Crescent.
The hook hooked the side of the Crescent, and the people on the fishing boat climbed up the rope.
The two-masted ship continued to suppress the Crescent Moon with bows and arrows, trying to make the people on the small fishing boat climb the Crescent Moon smoothly.
At the same time, it also covers the personnel on their side who are preparing to jump into the gang, so that they can safely board the Crescent Moon.
"Shoot!" said Hans coldly.
The guards, who had already been prepared, lit the fire rope and pulled the trigger for the person opposite.
The three-stage shooting alternated back and forth, and the thirty guns were a fierce blow, and the sound of fried beans crackled non-stop.
The two-masted ship of unknown origin itself was a back-attacker, and it used a bow and arrow, and its strength itself was not large, and it did almost no damage.
It can only be a simple harassment, but it is estimated that this is also the purpose and tactic of the opposite side.
The escorts were different, they were fighting with arquebuses, the geographical advantage was great, and the people on the opposite side looked at the iron rods held by the escorts, they were defenseless at all, and they caused a lot of casualties in one round.
The attack of the bow and arrow slowed down, and the sailors on the Crescent Moon freed up their hands and took their scimitars to slash the hooks thrown up from the small fishing boat.
The rope was cut off, and the people who climbed on it fell into the sea with a scream, and unluckily smashed into their own boat, overturning the small fishing boat, and sinking into the sea with the people and the boat.
"Bomb dropping. ”
The enemy seems to be fierce and full of formation, but in fact, in the eyes of everyone in the liberation group, there is nothing to worry about at all.
Hans commanded the convoy and did not even lift the gun jacket, so he did not intend to use the artillery.
The lit explosives were condescendingly thrown onto the deck of the enemy ship by the condescending men.
Seconds later, flames and smoke rose from the deck of the enemy ship.
Many of the people who were close to each other were killed directly, screaming and screaming at each other, and there was a wail on the deck.
Where have enemy ships encountered this way of fighting, unpredictable weapons, so that these people simply do not know how to deal with it.
Donner faintly watched the people on the enemy ship dodge indiscriminately, and a familiar figure broke into his line of sight.
It turned out to be him! Donner looked at the man, and the wound on his right palm, wrapped in a white cloth, was particularly obvious.
There were thirty or forty people on the enemy deck, and under the fierce attack of the Crescent, there were only half of them still standing.
"Hans!" Donner cried, "don't dwell on it, get away, shoot it, sink it!"
"Yes, Commander. Hans replied, turned to the sailor and said, "Take the long pole and push away the enemy ship, open the sail, and turn the rudder to the left." ”
When the sailors heard the order, they picked up the poles on the side of the ship and pressed against the two-masted ship with the Crescent Moon.
The man on the enemy ship also seemed to be deliberately distancing, and actually picked up the pole against the crescent moon and pushed it out.
"Huh!" Donner almost didn't laugh.
The distance between the two ships slowly widened, and the mercenaries who were alive on the enemy ship breathed a sigh of relief, and began to turn the rudder and adjust the sails, preparing to flee, and ignored their companions who fell into the sea.
Twenty meters away, the gunners lifted their jackets, and the ammunition inside was loaded, but it was a solid bullet
The gunner took out the solid iron bullet, opened a wooden box, and scooped out a large spoonful of iron sand and iron beads.
"Ignition!"
With the sound of five cannons, thousands of iron beads and iron slag were sprayed towards the enemy ship.
It was pitch black, there were almost no dead ends, and the mercenaries who were still lucky on the enemy ship were instantly beaten into a sieve by iron slag.
The whole body was pierced through countless blood holes, clothes and faces were full of holes, and one or two lucky mercenaries hid behind the obstacle and didn't get hit, but after seeing this situation, I couldn't help but vomit.
The leader of the mercenaries who had broken his fingers was blind, his two eyeballs were beaten into flesh and blood by iron slag, and the whole person was silent and fell on the deck full of blood.
No one solidified the dead, and the still alive were frightened and flew into the cabin.
The second round was a solid cannonball, and the waterline of the enemy ships was punched out of five large holes.
"Alright!" said Donner, "don't waste ammo. ”
"Yes!"
The Crescent Moon and Haike One ran over the small fishing boats around the bay and continued towards the bay.
The battle happened suddenly, and ended quickly, and with a few thunderbolts, the two-masted ship gradually sank under the noses of many merchant ships.
There were a lot of people gathered on the docks, and they were standing on tiptoe to look this way, including Fiennes.
There was a lot of discussion among the sailors and mercenaries around, and many well-informed people seemed to know whose sunken ship it was.
The name of the mercenary leader who was asked by Fiennes to cut off his finger in the adventure wine glass was constantly mentioned by these people.
The mercenary group led by the leader of this mercenary can also be regarded as a force in Harwan Town, and there are seventy or eighty people in the group, many merchant ships and mercenaries who have arrived for the first time, and they have been blackmailed, but they did not expect that they were suddenly planted in front of everyone's eyes today.
The mercenaries were gloating, some regretting, and more arguing, which side was the fire-breathing warship?
This ship, Fines is very familiar.
Behind Ferns stood a chamber of commerce that had businesses throughout the kingdom, and the leader of the mercenaries who had sunk to the bottom of the sea was just a small ant to Ferns.
But at this moment, the familiar warship shocked him very much at this time.
