The pirate's ships approached as fast as they could, no longer evading the counterattack, as the caravan and the opposing side exchanged rounds of fire.

However, during the period when Chen Zhou was watching the battle, he found that the two sides had obviously fired dozens of rounds of artillery at each other, why didn't they hit a single shot?

The boats on both sides of you are good, and the sailors are not a little dish-picked?

Boom.

Hearing the layman's taunt, Darla, who had just set up the cannon and was ready to continue firing, let it go on the spot.

"Do you think artillery is so easy to hit? Speed measurement, aiming, predicting wind direction and trajectory are all science, even if these are all done well, whether you can hit or not in the end is still up to luck! ”

"It's so hard." Chen Zhou was surprised, "Then in the end, do you still have to get closer than anyone else with more guns and faster rate of fire?" ”

"Well, of course, there's also a broadside battle, why don't you shoot it yourself and see how hard it is?" Dara looked at each other with the mindset of having fun.

Don't look at them as soon as they deviate more than ten meters away, if you want a layman to open fire, maybe you will go to grandma's house!

Hearing this, Chen Zhou came to the artillery with great interest, he really had no similar experience on earth.

Artillery ......

Aim......

Chen Zhou found that he couldn't aim accurately, this thing didn't even have a crosshair, how to play it!

Do you rely on metaphysics?

It's no wonder that Darla said that missing shots is the norm, and at first glance it seems that firing a gun is really an extremely experience-consuming job.

So he had to reluctantly calculate.

Then ignition......

Launch!

With a bang, a pitch-black iron ball flew straight towards the Black Sail Pirates' largest ship, the "Lament of Tears".

"Yo, pretty accurate?"

Dara had to admit that as a layman who didn't know anything, it was good that Chen Zhou didn't miss more than 100 meters - they were currently more than 100 meters away from the pirate ship.

"Hit! I'm in! ”

Then, in the next moment, he saw the iron ball smashing into the bow of the Lamentation of Tears, causing a lot of commotion.

"The Soul Forger is on top!"

The lookout on the mast shouted excitedly, "That shot just hit their bow gun!" Scrap them a cannon! ”

Hearing this, the dwarf looked up at the other party who was celebrating.

It's so accurate, it's worthy of a warlock!

"One more shot! Shoot one more! Dara hurriedly helped Chen Zhou make all the preparations, urging the other party to try his luck again.

The latter, who knew that he was just a blind cat and ran into a dead mouse, waved his hand instead, not planning to waste any more arms.

"Forget it, just keep my hit rate at 100 percent."

"Look at what you can." The dwarf screwed up, he hadn't even hit the bow gun.

Chen Zhou just doesn't have the common sense of this world, and he's not stupid.

He could see that the drag in the air after the solid iron ball ammunition was fired was largely random.

What's more, even if it hits, in this era, the lethality of shells to ships is extremely limited, even if a ship is hit by dozens or hundreds of cannons, it may not sink.

In other words, no matter how accurate the aim is before the cannon is fired, the success or failure is largely a matter of distance and luck...... It's like he's aiming at the ammunition depot in the middle section.

Originally, he wanted to try to directly detonate the ammunition depot to blow up the magic machine and cause a fire, but after thinking about it, something like a solid iron ball would not detonate even if it really smashed into the gunpowder.

It was pure luck that one of the bow guns had just been put up with one shot.

Therefore, according to his analysis, in the end, it depends on the battle after the two sides indent the distance......

In the midst of this artillery fire, the remaining 100 meters were quickly overtaken by the ships of the Black Sail Pirates, and four ships, one large, three small, surrounded the Eight Kings caravan from three directions.

It wasn't until the ship was next to the ship that the artillery, which had been constantly complained about by Chen Zhou, had a low hit rate, finally took effect.

Shells came in from all sides, and soon the Obsidian and two other small ships were full of holes, and even the deck and cabins looked full of holes!

At the same time, the pirate's frigates were no less frustrated, and despite their numerical superiority, the dwarven fire was unusually unpretentious.

In just a few volleys, the boat, which was trying to encircle from the left and right, was incapacitated.

The magic machine replaced the steam engine, but the structural strength of the ship did not climb.

At the same time, Chen Zhou also noticed that neither the pirates nor the caravan had said anything, and they came up and attacked as if they had a heart.

It's as if the Black Sail Pirates had been on a mission to kill the Eight Kings caravan from the beginning.

If you think about it, it doesn't seem like it's impossible......

As several ships fought side by side and a large number of shells sank into the water, the surrounding waters became more and more choppy, making it more difficult to stand on the deck, and the sea began to pour into the ship through bullet holes.

Fortunately, the dwarven craftsmanship stands out for its durability, and even if it looks like it is full of holes, the Obsidian unexpectedly shows no signs of sinking.

Just as Todak methodically instructed the crew to divide and work together, the Lamentation of Tears, which was chasing behind him, finally came closer.

Broadside warfare, the simplest and most direct method of warfare in the era of sails.

"Rush forward! Kill them all! The first to board the ship will receive a runic weapon from the dwarves' munitions! ”

An undisguised proclamation of slaughter came from the enemy ship, and the bandits who had run amok at sea shouted and jumped in a gang of joy, pouring from the deck, mast and walls to the Obsidian.

Is it really a magic weapon for the dwarves, Chen Zhou thought for a moment and raised his shield to retreat behind the obstacles.

But he saw the bright muskets in the hands of both sides, and he might have been killed by a stray bullet.

Having said that, he still didn't have the heart to go back to the cargo hold to find Old Setan for refuge, and even faintly felt a trace of excitement and excitement - it was the first time he had seen a real battle since he crossed over!

What bad intentions can a kitten have.jpg

"Phew! Even if I sink all the goods into the sea, I won't give them to you! ”

Dara immediately rushed forward with his shield and tomahawk, leading a group of warriors to fight the pirates.

Even Todak, who was dressed up and looked at the upper echelons, raised his guns to kill and wound the enemy.

One side is outnumbered, the morale of the people is high, and the other side is well-trained and well-equipped.

At first, the caravan was clearly suppressed and firmly held the upper hand, but it was not long before pirates who jumped onto the ship from three directions surrounded them.

The situation of the war has fallen into a stalemate.

Seeing that the obsidian deck was gradually becoming flesh and blood, Chen Zhou, who was originally full of interest and onlookers, gradually frowned and regained his composure and sanity.

The so-called "real battle" is more boring and ugly than he imagined, and it is just a worthless death of one living person after another.

After all, what is happening in front of you at this moment is not any film, television or literary works, but the reality of putting yourself in your shoes!

Looking at the flying blood and stumps over the shield, Chen Zhou began to miss more and more the comfortable life of ordering takeout when he was hungry, drinking happy water when he was thirsty, playing games when he was tired, and brushing up on his questions.

But even the most ordinary happiness is long gone.

Disappointed, he silently returned to the cargo hold and waited for the battle to end.
