Seeing this scene, the pirates were amazed and asked how the mast was broken? They would never believe that a cannonball would accurately hit the mast of the manufacture! It was absolutely impossible then! Let them believe this, it is better to believe that they accidentally dug up a box of gold when they were in Hugh Cottage!

Then one of the pirates shouted, "I see it! It was the spinning shell that caught its way around the mast, and then the mast broke!"

At this time, a naval officer who had been standing beside them silently said, "The cannonball that you are talking about spinning in the sky is called a chain bullet! It's specially designed to sweep the deck and break the sails! In fact, the chain bullet is an iron chain connected to the middle of the two iron balls, and the iron chain envelops the mast, and the iron ball will spin back and smash on the mast, and the mast will break like this!"

When the pirates heard this, their hearts were even colder! This kind of shell they are simply unheard of, unseen! They are even already imagining that when their homes are besieged by the official army, if a chain bounces over and wraps around the mast, and then the mast falls down with a "squeak", and then there is no power, they can only be beaten passively!

But then another pirate shouted, "The ship is leaking! It's on the head!"

Everyone hurriedly looked at it again, and sure enough, they saw that the stern of the target ship was much lower than before, and the bow of the ship had begun to slowly! If in actual combat, although the current state does not affect the sailing, the speed of the ship will definitely be greatly reduced!

And at this time, it is necessary to allocate enough manpower to dig for water, so that there are fewer people who can be used for combat, and they can only be beaten more passively! Then the ship will be damaged faster! It's a vicious circle! With this point, you will either surrender or die, and there will be no third way!

At this time, the soldiers on the warship also seemed to notice that the target ship was gradually sinking, so they did not rush to open fire, and the battleship began to circle around the target ship to confirm the situation. To the pirate's eyes, it looks like a shark is circling around its prey to see if it has lost its resistance!

When the warship approached the target ship twenty or thirty paces, the battleship suddenly started shooting again! But this time it's not a salvo, it's a slow single gun shot! And it's all shotguns!

The pirates knew that this was the last time they would clean the deck before boarding, so they all stared wide to see how the officers and soldiers would get aboard!

After the warship circled around the target ship and swept the deck with shotguns from all directions, a soldier finally stood up and threw his flying claws, and he successfully caught the target ship! At the same time, the warship also closed its sails and slowed down, and it seemed that it was ready to fight a broadside battle!

Seeing this, the pirates' spirits are lifted a little more! For them, receivings are their forte! None of them are afraid of this!

But at this moment, a pair of soldiers armed with muskets rushed out of the cabin of the warship, and they did not form a formation at all, but formed two rows of horizontal formations when they finished running! Then they quickly fired two rounds at the target ship on the opposite side!

As soon as the firing was over, the sailors hiding under the side of the ship suddenly stood up and shot at the target ship with short guns in hand! This short gun is very light to pick up, and each sailor holds one in each hand, and two rounds of shooting are completed in an instant!

Seeing this scene, the pirates' newly mustered hearts sank again, and they sank deeper than just now! Because they had calculated the time, it was the time for the pirates to jump the gang when they shot the firecrackers! Being shot by four rounds of fire without cover, anyone who jumps basically can't survive!

Then, under the frustrated gaze of the pirates, the soldiers and sailors on board launched a gang jump! The sailors threw away their stubs, picked up their knives and axes from the ground and jumped onto the target ship! And the two rows of soldiers behind have already stuck their guns with bayonets and jumped after the sailors!

After that, they quickly rushed from the port side to the starboard side of the ship, which was equivalent to occupying the entire target ship! Then they happily carried the half-broken mast on their shoulders and returned to their ship as trophies, and the whole exercise was completely over! The Royal Navy took out the opponent with a landslide!

At this time, Liu Guangting said in a very low voice, but enough for the surrounding pirates to hear, "Now you know why Lao Tzu took you to Wu Ningbo, right? There will be more and more such ships in the future, and they will be replaced gradually

There are old warships, do you have the confidence to fight such ships?"

Li Feiyu, who was standing next to him, also said in the same voice, "Spank it! I don't think this one ship will have much trouble beating the six of us!"

The old pirate also said with a bitter face, "Yes, there are so many cannons on this ship that you can't get close to it!"

The other pirates even bowed their hands and said, "The big dragon head is wise!"

"Thank you for saving your life!"

"If it weren't for the big dragon head who brought us here, maybe we would have been copied one day, and we wouldn't know how to die until we died!"

At this time, the pirates spoke in a much more sincere tone, and there was no suspicion in their eyes. It seems that they were impressed by Liu Guangting! This made Liu Guangting even more proud!

The reason why he is so proud is because the pirates are basically up and down, and they can be in power in the future! Another point is that these pirates don't know that he took the initiative to send a ship as a target to shoot, seemingly to prevent the official army from doing anything on the original target ship, but in fact, he has already deducted a hole in his own ship!

The hole is not big, and after digging it, it is plugged with cork, and once it is violently shaken, the plug will break out, which will quickly cause the illusion that the boat is broken and leaking! Now it seems that this arrangement could not succeed again! Three salvos knocked a ship to the point of leakage, which was enough for these pirates to be terrified!

After a drill, Liu Guangting and the ship they are on can be said to be two heavens of ice and fire! Ice is naturally the heart of these pirates! Because they were already frightened by the drill just now, and their hearts were full of coldness! As for the fire, it was the enthusiasm of the sailors and sailors on board!

When we saw the result, we were naturally elated and excited! Many soldiers and sailors deliberately discussed aloud next to the pirates what tactics should be used for the two ships, and what should be done for the three ships? What about a fleet? It made the pirates tremble!

They learned a lot from the comments of the naval officers! First of all, they knew that if this new type of warship was finalized, it would be named the Cruiser class! In other words, in the future, all warships with less than 50 guns will belong to the patrol class! To put it bluntly, it is the cruiser of later generations!
