Chapter 59: One-Eyed
Sitting beside the sunset paved road, Qiu He sipped coffee and thought about what to do next.
Qi Nuolu was happily playing with Xiao Jin, as long as Xiao Jin showed the slightest gesture of wanting to leave, she would take out a big apple from the four-dimensional skirt and pat and feed it.
It didn't take long for Jin to learn to pretend to leave and trick him into eating apples.
If Qiu He hadn't strictly controlled Xiao Jin's apple intake and only allowed Qi Nuolu to feed apple pieces, it is estimated that Xiao Jin would have fallen asleep by now.
"Boom, boom, boom."
The sound of cannonballs exploding was heard not far away, and then bursts of black smoke rose into the sky, and there was no doubt that this was another pirate group that did not know the height of the sky, and came to attack the island.
"Damn, I won't even have a good afternoon tea, so let's go."
Qiu He drank all the remaining coffee in the cup in one gulp, took out a Bailey, put it on the table casually, and beckoned Qi Nolu to move towards the estimated goal.
At the dock on the west coast, the warship returning from the mission had just arrived at the shore, and before it could tie the cable, it was hit suddenly.
For ordinary people who can be called 'strong', it is difficult for artillery to have any substantial effect on them. But for medium and long-range naval warfare, artillery is an indispensable tool.
A huge pirate ship suddenly appeared offshore, obviously much larger than a warship, but no one noticed the pirate ship before it opened fire.
On that ship, the gun windows on the hull had already been opened, and a dense gun barrel emerged from the gun window.
Seeing the Navy warship docked on the dock, the pirate ship politely gave a big gift, and more than a dozen round cannonballs flew over together, but none of them landed on the warship due to luck.
At this time, the warship also reacted, the gun window opened, the gun barrel stretched out, and launched a salvo towards the pirate ship.
Unfortunately, due to various technical and hardware reasons, not a single shell fell on the huge pirate ship in this round of shooting by the navy, and all of them were lost.
The entire shelling scene was simply rookies pecking each other.
Two or three more rounds of artillery bombardment were carried out, probably because of the proximity, and the navy finally managed to hit the pirate ship once, but for the huge pirate ship, this blow did not cause any real damage.
The distance between the two ships was already less than 100 meters away, but the pirate ship had no intention of slowing down, looking like it was going to burn with the warship.
Don't look at the size of the navy warships are much smaller than the pirate ships, but unlike the pirate ships, which are made of wood, the navy warships have a lot of steel plates pasted on them, and it is really hard to say who is the head of the iron.
Not wanting to go to Huangquan with this group of pirates, Sisi commanded the navy on the warship to abandon the ship and leave.
At this moment, the pirate ship suddenly made a 'drift', and what was supposed to go straight for the warship turned into a ninety-degree angle to the warship.
However, due to inertia, the pirate ship still approached the shore in a sideways manner, and even because of the excessive force, the entire ship was at risk of capsizing.
If nothing else, the pirate ship will fall on top of the Navy warship and then slide ashore with the warship in tow.
At this moment, all of the pirate ship's guns facing the coast suddenly rang out, almost all the sounds overlapped, and the huge vibration sound even made the entire sea surface covered with water streaks.
The flames and smoke rose into the sky, and the huge reaction force caused by the salvo caused the moving ship to stop abruptly, and even moved back a little, and the hull that was about to tip was pulled back again.
A few shells that had been released a little later flew towards the town in the distance due to the angle.
Under such a close-range covering blow, even if the hull of the Navy warship is made of steel, it is completely useless and is directly torn to pieces.
Originally, the warship could still leave a whole corpse, but now it is really broken.
Seeing that the ship had successfully landed, Brant, who was the ship's navigator and deputy captain, walked to the side of the ship.
A burly man lay on the side of the ship, looking at the fragments of the warship floating in the sea, opening his mouth wide and letting out a gong-like laugh.
"Hahaha, Brandt's skills are still as good as ever, just now I thought he would rush ashore, if the ship runs aground, it's not easy to get it."
The big man wore a wide black captain's hat, his left eye was blinded or for some other reason, and he was covered by a black cloth with the same pattern as the pirate flag, and his bare right hand held a golden hook, and in his left hand he held a bottle of spirits with a high degree of strength, and he poured it into his mouth when he was fine.
He is none other than the Cyclops Pirates Captain, Cook.
"Hehehehe, if the skills are poor, I don't dare to follow you to the Great Voyage, Captain."
Brandt smiled lewdly, and learned from Cook to lie on the side of the ship, so short and stocky that he could only stand on tiptoe so that he could look over the railing and look out at the town not far away.
He had spent a lot of energy just now, and now he had to rest a little.
Cook shoved the bottle into his mouth, tilted his head to finish the small amount of wine, threw the empty bottle into the sea, and turned his head to look behind him.
The deck was already full of excited pirates.
"Little ones, this is our last stop in the West Sea, and the island is full of golden Bailey and big girls with water. Remember, we're only on this island for one day, and after a day, we're on our way to the Great Voyage. Go, little ones, plunder your deserved spoils and have fun. ”
As if he had already regarded the island as a bag, facing the town of Gran, Cook swung the golden hook forward with force.
The pirates, who had been waiting impatiently, rushed towards the town like hyenas smelling carrion.
"Even, ......"
Without waiting for the gangplank on the boat to be put on the shore, many pirates fell directly into the sea along the rope, and then waded to the shore.
Hundreds of pirates were running together on the beach, stirring up a violent wave of sand, and the scene was truly spectacular.
"Hahaha, what an energetic bunch."
Staring at his scrambled men, Cook laughed happily again, jumped lightly, and jumped onto the railing.
"Why, Captain, you're going to do it too?"
Looking at Cook, who was standing on the side of the ship, there was a hint of surprise on Brant's face, he hadn't seen Cook make a move for a long time.
"Hahaha, it's been a long time since I've been active, I heard that there is a naval base on this island, I'll go there and have a look."
Cook spun his shoulders and kicked hard under his feet, jumping straight over the sea between the pirate ship and the shore, landing on the sand, smashing into a huge bunker.
Cook got up from the bunker intact, patted the sand off his body, and slowly walked towards Grand Town.
