Chapter 50: The Attack
Hawaii's seashores are full of blue waters, white sandy beaches, lush forests, bright flowers, brightly colored fish and turtles lazing in the sun.
It's just that the black warship moored not far away looks out of place with this beautiful picture of nature.
The word "student" obviously did not satisfy Princess Sneca, but that did not prevent her from continuing to seek the answers she wanted.
"And what did he teach you?" Sneka asked with interest.
"A reason to live." Kagura said it lightly, but it made the former's pupils tremble, and he looked at this "anomaly" with the eyes of a monster.
In fact, Princess Sneka is also an "outlier" in the Omani Empire, she is different from the ladies in the waiting girl, she likes to travel on camels, likes knives, muskets, dances and reads, and is even more knowledgeable than many ulemas.
Ulema, a scholar in the Celestial Tradition.
But the Japanese woman in front of her is really weird, but her owner may be even more eccentric.
Being alive was a matter of course in Sneka's eyes, so she couldn't understand what the other party was saying. This is because of the historical and religious differences between the East and the West.
In the East, there is often talk of killing and martyrdom, while the West is generally opposed to this practice, and the same is true of the Heavenly Sect.
So Princess Sineka changed the subject.
"And what skills did he teach you?"
Kagura pulled a pistol out of her bosom, and Silka instinctively dodged it, knowing that she couldn't dodge the bullet.
At this time, the gunshots rang out, and not far away, a native who had just climbed onto the bow of the boat fell forward clutching his chest. Two more native warriors were then knocked out, but more more climbed up.
Kagura grabbed Princess Sneka and fought as she fought, she didn't know how many of the attackers were, and although Friedrich had taken most of them, the people on board should theoretically be enough to deal with the attack.
According to her calculations, as long as she held out for about five minutes, the soldiers on the lower deck would be able to arrive.
And he only heard the sound of the alarm bell after the gunshot, and he should have been the first to spot the attacker. The scale of the attack should also be small, at least not to take out the sentinels.
But there was another point that worried her, as Franz said, winning too many battles is sometimes not a good thing.
At this time, the Austrian army was undoubtedly underestimated, and the other thing was more carefully considered and terrifying.
The attackers were the first to attack Friedrich's flagship, and this floor was inhabited by important people.
How could a group of natives investigate things so clearly, was it luck? That's impossible! The only plausible explanation is that there are moles in this fleet.
Historically, metal fixed ammunition was only accepted by various countries after 1870 and thus installed in a large area, but this technology has actually been available since 1812, and after several improvements by the Royal Society of Science in Vienna, it can be fully applied to actual combat.
At this time, the revolver in Kagura's hand was a new type of weapon that could be used in conjunction with metal fixed ammunition. Theoretically, although more than a dozen natives did not get on the boat together, they should still be holding a handle to catch two women less than 20 meters away.
However, this new revolver is beyond the imagination of ordinary people in this era in terms of the rate of fire and the speed of reloading.
After Kagura emptied the bullets of the two revolvers, one of the natives couldn't stand the fear of death and threw the spear directly.
The former sideways dodged the calmly pouring out the cartridge casings, then replaced with a new drum, and after the bolt was reset, a bullet hit the latter's chest accurately.
In fact, unless it is a show of skill, or the opponent is wearing very thick armor, few people choose to "shoot the head", after all, the target of the head is much smaller than the torso.
In this way, Kagura hid in the cabin, and at this time only four of the fifteen attackers remained.
They never thought that this would be the result, they thought it would be as easy as an eagle catching a rabbit, but before they could catch it, they were almost wiped out.
Although the door in front of him was made of wood, the fine oak and steel plates were fastened, so that the axes in the hands of these natives could not be broken.
Not far away, there was the sound of soldiers stomping on the deck and shouting, although they couldn't understand it, but it was nothing more than telling them to stop, to kill themselves or something.
At this time, the strong man led by him couldn't control much, and directly chose to hit the door with his body. However, this trick is actually much better than an axe, after all, no matter how strong the door is, the folding is just like that.
After the door was slammed open, no bullets came at her, and in fact, Kagura was hiding on the side at this time, because she didn't know how many others there were, and there was also Princess Sneca.
The latter considered herself a very brave person and also had good shooting skills, but it was only when she was suddenly assassinated that she realized how weak she was.
An indigenous probe tried to observe the inside of the house, but was directly hit in the face by a bullet and fell to the ground in convulsions.
The other native was frightened and hurriedly retreated, but the strong native leader before would not allow him to do so.
The second native was also shot as soon as he showed up, but he did not fall because the strong native behind him was holding on to the strap.
In this way, the native, who had been shot, was carried forward, his eyes full of despair, and his mouth was speaking in the native language.
That didn't matter to Kagura, though, as she had already heard the sounds outside and the shaking of the deck, and within two minutes a large group of soldiers would be here.
Kagura took a deep breath, and at this point she finally saw the native, who was using his companion as a shield, and the two revolvers in his hand were firing together.
It's just that the caliber of the pistol she used is too small, and after shooting through the meat shield in front, it won't have much effect on the second person.
At this moment, a small man suddenly flashed out from behind the strong man, and his movements were as agile as a spirit ape, but no matter how fast he was, he couldn't be faster than a bullet.
But before he died, the little man threw a stone rope in Kagura's direction, and the strong man who had just taken the opportunity to rush up against the corpse while the latter was dodging.
At this time, Kagura ran out of bullets, and she decisively dropped the gun in her hand and rushed towards the other party.
The sturdy native dropped the corpse in his hand and reached out to grab Kagura who rushed towards him, only to be caught directly by the latter and thrown a ba.
Ba Tou refers to the judo smash in the opponent's direction to break the momentum in the opposite direction, bend his body and slide forward and downward, and at the same time land on the ground with his lower back, and at the same time kick the opponent's abdomen with a bent knee, causing the opponent to roll and fall down through his neck in a roller shape.
To put it simply, it is to directly use the self-sacrifice technique to use yourself as the fulcrum to throw the opponent who rushes forward.
The power of this move has little to do with the caster's own strength, and mainly depends on the opponent's forward speed and weight.
And the strong native just happened to have the characteristics of fast forward rush and heavy weight, and with the furniture displayed on the side, he was naturally greatly injured.
