"Fire ......"

......At a distance of two chains, the fierce artillery fire on the port side of the sail battleship "Wangquan" fired more than 20 rounds of red-hot cannonballs, smashing them fiercely on the "Black Pharaoh" pirate ship, setting off a bloody storm.

The red shells hit the hard side of the ship, and instantly exploded in all parts, and the flying iron pieces and bullets rained down the pirates on the enemy ship one by one, and in the blink of an eye, the deck was stained red with blood.

Broke the foremast, set the sails on fire, and caused great damage to the pirate ship.

The cannonball destroyed the bollard, and the tied sail cable immediately disintegrated, causing the sails of the pirate ship to deflat, losing most of its momentum.

The "Black Pharaoh" pirate ship visibly slowed down, and the distance between the two ships shortened sharply, entering the distance of the broadside battle.

The pirate captain "Vulture" Rodman, who had been cornered, had a fierce glint in his eyes, and shouted with a sharp long knife in one hand and a double musket in the other;

"Brave and fearless fellows, there is only one way to die in their hands, pray that the great god of the sea will testify, let us kill these Orientals, and seize the gunboats of the navy, and henceforth be the king of Central America."

His frenzied cries ignited the ferocity in the hearts of the pirates, and they all climbed up the zipline with sharp blades in their hands, like grasshoppers dense on the rice stalks, ready to swing over while the two ships were on board, killing and robbing the ship.

"Raise your gun, fire."

"Bang bang bang...... Bang bang bang ......"

On the sail battleship "Kingpower", the neatly lined sail soldiers raised Colt 1848 lever-fired repeating rifles in their hands and fired fiercely at the pirates dozens of meters away.

The scorching bullets flew like a swarm of bees, knocking down the masts, ziplines, and pirates on the sails one by one, and "crackling" to the ground.

Rounds of bullets rained down seemingly endlessly, and after the thick smoke of gunpowder, the crazy pirates on the "Black Pharaoh" pirate ship had been swept away, beaten down like more than 100 turkeys, and a large number of dead and wounded.

Iron claws with sharp barbs clasped tightly to the side of the pirate ship, quickly closing the distance as the waves ebb and wave, binding the two ships tightly together.

The sail battleship "Kingpower" had a large tonnage and a high waterline, and the naval soldiers jumped into the pirate ship with swords and guns in hand, and continued to pour bullets at the pirates who were lying down, and finally mended their knives.

Soon swept from the deck to the captain's cabin in the stern, wounded Rodman the vulture, and threw it like a rag pocket onto the sail battleship "Kingpower".

The battle came to an end

The soldiers swept from the deck to the bottom of the cabin, the crisp gunfire gradually stopped, the corpses of the killed pirates were piled up on the deck, and more than two dozen wounded and captured pirates were tied up by the soldiers and forced to kneel on the deck.

At this point, the big picture has been decided.

The number of pirate ships active on the Central American route is not large, far less than that of the Caribbean, because the trade routes between the cities on the eastern coast of the United States and important countries such as Brazil and Argentina in Central and South America must pass through the Caribbean.

Besides

Most of the important ports in the southern states of the United States, where cotton is abundant, are located in the Gulf of Mexico, close to the Caribbean Sea.

The prosperity of the North American commercial routes has made the pirates of the Caribbean, an ancient industry that has been rampant for hundreds of years, more prosperous and far more powerful than the pirates on the east coast of the Pacific.

After capturing the pirate king led by the "Black Pharaoh", all that remains is some small fish and shrimp, and it only needs to continue to clear and consolidate the results.

Brigadier General Pan Hengchen's eyes coldly swept over the captured pirates, who were already dead in his eyes, including the "vulture captain" Rodman with a shiny and shiny bald head.

Speaking of the famous murderous on the Central American route, all kinds of terrible legends depict the gods, but after being caught, he is paralyzed to the ground like a cramp, and he is just a burly white bald man, what is it?

Pirates are rampant only in lawless seas, and once they are attacked by the regular navy, they will be crushed to the slag in minutes.

The Black Pharaoh Corsair was a three-masted medium-sized schooner converted from a robbed vessel that was fast and nimble in its steering, making it ideal for navigating the complex waters of Central America.

"Vulture Captain" Rodman has made a name for himself for more than ten years, and he has only accumulated 12 guns, which is already the most powerful firepower among Central American pirate ships.

It is a steady handle against ordinary merchant ships and migrant ships, but in the face of the sail battleship "Kingpower" with a displacement of more than 1,000 tons, and in the face of the 62 guns equipped with the sail battleship "Kingpower", it is really not enough to see at all.

What is especially bullying is that the navy of the Tang Kingdom is equipped with the sharpest Colt 1848 lever repeating rifle in the world today, and the dense rain of bullets seems to be endless, directly slaughtering the pirates who are ready to engage in broadside battles with weapons in hand, without half a point of suspense.

The expected hand-to-hand hand-to-hand combat did not happen at all, and the fierce pirates were already dead and wounded.

"Command; Throw the deadly pirates into the sea, scour the decks, collect weapons and swords, and detach a group of men to pilot the Black Pharaoh and prepare for the return voyage. ”

Brigadier General Pan Hengchen issued a series of orders, and his officers and soldiers immediately took action, throwing the dead pirate corpses into the sea one by one, and then using buckets to beat sea water to wash the bloody flesh on the deck.

This quickly caused a school of sharks to stir up in the nearby sea, and in a short time hundreds of sharks gathered and frantically gnawed at the pirate corpses near the surface of the sea, and the surrounding sea area was already rendered a bloody color, boiling like a soup pot.

Brigadier General Pan Hengchen did not pay attention to these trivial matters, and the two dozen or so pirates led by the "vulture captain" Rodman who were captured were tied up and thrown aside, and they will return to the Panamanian naval base and call the local people to be tried on the spot and hanged, so as to deter the remnants of pirates and lawbreakers in the area.

As for this "Black Pharaoh" three-masted schooner, Commodore Pan Hengchen has already taken a fancy to it, and after it is towed back, it can be included in the sequence of naval ships after it has been repaired.

There is no way, the naval strength of the Tang Kingdom is too weak, and there are not many ships that can be used, and the main force is two British sail battleships of more than 1,000 tons.

Some other brig frigates with small tonnage can only patrol not far from the sea, and they are not able to enter the deep ocean.

The "Black Pharaoh" entered service in the navy of the Tang Kingdom, and it is a proper capital ship with the third displacement, and it doesn't matter if the wooden bulwarks are broken, and there are shipwrights in the ports near Central America, which can be repaired soon.

After solving the hidden danger of piracy on the sea, the navy of the Tang Kingdom should focus on land expansion......

Come to think of it

Brigadier General Pan Hengcheng looked in the direction of the mainland with a hint of complicated eyes, which is the vast and sparsely populated Panama region of Central America, which is also a sensitive area of great concern to His Majesty the King, with the vast Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean only separated by 65 kilometers, and the geographical location is extremely important.
