76. Collapse at the touch of a button
Brown turned his head to look at a pirate beside him, this is the convener of this time, the Haigufen merchant group colludes with pirates, this is a normal thing, in this era, if there is no background, it is impossible to survive on the pirate-infested sea, or just like Hippan, escorted by the national fleet, a single merchant ship may die without knowing how to die, unless it is cornered, usually will not take risks, that's it, or may be robbed, after all, pirates will not escort a merchant ship for a long time.
The pirates gave the order, and the three gangs of pirates and six pirate ships began to adjust their course and headed northwest.
Wang Qinian's four ships went out to sea, and saw that there were many ships going in all directions, and one of them was a small boat that was speeding towards the open sea, frowning, and glanced at it, and now it had not left Kefen Island, Wang Qinian ordered all ships to be vigilant.
With the help of a strong southeast wind, the speed of the ship was very fast, and after four hours, it had been more than a hundred miles away from Kefen Island, Wang Qinian looked at the compass, measured it on the chart with a sextant for a while, and issued an order: "Alof and Gulliver are lifted into the air, the ship is fifteen degrees in front and the front is searched, the search distance is fifty miles, and if something is found wrong, return quickly." ”
Two wyverns rose into the air and searched ahead. Wang Qinian's ship continued to move forward, and after a while, the two flying dragons returned, and they both saw a battleship waiting in front of them in the sky, and they didn't know who they were waiting for.
Wang Qinian had a general idea in his heart, thinking of the previous boat, and his heart was basically definitely coming for them, and in the past few days, there were several groups of people listening to their news.
He knew that they had revealed their wealth, and they did not dare to do anything on the island. As soon as he left the sphere of influence on the island, he immediately showed a hideous look, Wang Qinian was not angry, just smiled faintly, gave the order to go down, and prepared to fight.
Brown looked at the six warships, although they were not his, nor did they belong to the Haigufen Merchant Group, but he saw the gunwales open one by one, and the black hole pointed forward. There is still a sense of pride in my heart. There are six ships on his side, while the other side only has four, and his side is in good formation. Even if the other party comes. There will also be a hasty response. He had seen the victory, and he had seen the glittering gold coins beckoning to him.
He picked up a telescope and looked at the ocean. From afar, I saw the sails of the ship rising from below the water level, first at one o'clock, then at two or three o'clock, and the other ship's began to appear in view.
And his own ships lined up, the ships came sideways, and the posture had been set, although Brown was not very proficient in naval warfare, but he had dealt with pirates for many years, and he knew some of it, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Open the cannon!" The pirate gave an order, and the cannonball hit the skyrocketing water column, this is not to kill the enemy, but to calibrate the landing point of the cannonball, there is still a big section away from Wang Qinian's ship, Wang Qinian held a telescope in his hand, and when he saw the other party firing the cannon, a sneer appeared on his face, it can be seen from here that this group of pirates still understands some naval warfare, but it is a pity that they fired too early, and it will be better in a few minutes.
Raising the telescope in his hand, he observed the other party, and happened to see Brown also observing with the telescope, and he suddenly understood that it was the ghost of the Haigufen merchant group, and ordered: "The flying dragon takes off, and the target is the third ship of the other party." ”
Wang Qinian didn't see that the other party had a flying dragon, since this was the case, to capture the thief and capture the king, Wang Qinian directly used the decapitation tactics to first eliminate the enemy's command center, and the flying dragon took off into the air and swooped down on the ship where Brown was, and it was two flying dragons that pounced on the enemy.
Wang Qinian's four boats rowed out a beautiful S-shape, and the boat also turned sideways, and at the same time, the guns on the ship also sounded, and the smoke was filled, and the water column immediately rushed up on the water, because it was far away, not a single shot hit, but the most recent shot, more than a dozen cubits away from the boat, splashed all the water splashed on the boat.
The two sides began an artillery battle, although the other side had six ships, but it was obviously lower than Wang Qinian's side, and the artillery fire did not hit, while Wang Qinian's side hit two cannons, although they did not hit the vital point, but caused a burst of confusion.
The two flying dragons had already flown over the ship, and the pirates were obviously on guard, several muskets were raised, and the gunshots rang out, Alof and Gulliver were startled, but then they found that the bullets could not hurt the flying dragon, and they could not penetrate the dragon scales at all, not to mention that as soon as the gunshots rang out, the dragon's body lit up, and there were no two bullets close to them, and the two of them were relieved.
The two of them threw down the alchemy bomb they were carrying, and with a bang, the people on the ship were hiding everywhere, and a fiery red light flashed on the ship, and the magician took action, protecting everyone, and the bomb exploded in the air.
It turned out that there were only two magicians in the three of them, one was a water system and the other was a fire system, and on this ship, there was a fire magician, and the magician had not moved, which was also the reason why the pirates were frightened when they saw the flying dragon, but they did not panic.
The two dragons roared, swooped down from the air, and at the same time, one spewed acid, the other spewed flames, and attacked the ship, and when the magician on the ship saw it, two rays appeared, which were scorching rays, and they swooped down on the two wyverns.
The two flying dragons didn't pay attention to it at all, in their eyes, the two rays were inconspicuous, they still rushed down from the air, the acid and the pillars of fire went straight down, and the two flying strips that the rays hit accurately, the two flying dragons seemed to have nothing to do, their own magic resistance worked, and the rays were really weak, proving that the mage was no more than level five.
The people on the ship were unlucky, and the mages on the ship had no time to protect themselves from the scorching rays, and one of the pirates with a gun screamed in the fire, and the two pirates were stained with acid, and they let out a terrible scream as they watched their bodies dissolve. Brown was standing on the ship, and he had already hid in the cabin at this time, but a person beside him did not enter the cabin, and at this time, a flash of inspiration appeared in his body, a big sword appeared in his hand, roared wildly, and his body rose vertically, and he slashed at the Amoran two-horned lizard dragon.
The Amoro two-horned lizard dragon turned around, Alof lay on the dragon's back, the dragon spear moved, it was also a flash, it was a shot, Alof rushed down from the sky, with the impact of the flying dragon, under a shot, although he was shining with spiritual light, but he couldn't resist this force, poof, the dragon spear pierced into his abdomen.
The Amoran two-horned dragon flew above the ship, and with a flick of the Alov spear, the body was thrown away, and the body drew a diagonal line and fell into the sea.
The sails on the ship were on fire, the two flying dragons had been pulled up, in an instant, the speed of the ship dropped, Wang Qinian's four boats saw it, and immediately fired flowering shells at it, three flowering bombs hit the upper deck of the ship, the explosion sounded, shrapnel flew sideways, the ship's mast and some buildings immediately splashed debris, many pirates burst into the sea, the captain died in the explosion, and the magician was stunned, it could be seen that he had also thought of this situation, the enemy artillery fire was so fierce.
This ship is considered to be scrapped, although it still has combat effectiveness, but where do the pirates on the ship think about fighting, they rush to the deck one by one to grab the lifeboat, Wang Qinian saw this scene in the telescope, shook his head, pirates can not be compared with the regular army, there is no sense of battle at all.
Wang Qinian's four ships no longer cared about it, concentrating on dealing with the other five ships, the five ships had already begun to retreat, especially when they saw that their shells had hit the enemy ship, but the enemy ship lit up with a spiritual light and intercepted the shells, their fighting spirit was dispersed, and the pirates led by them actually lost their lives and began to scatter and flee, Wang Qinian did not expect that the enemy would be defeated so lightly, and the four warships just wanted to pursue, but Wang Qinian stopped them.
The four boats saw that the ship was still parked there, so they surrounded it, and the ship blew up more miserably, which of course refers to the superstructure, the substructure basically remained intact, the fire on the ship had been extinguished, there were still a few people on the boat, and the others either jumped into the water or escaped in a small boat, Wang Qinian stepped on the boat, and the people on the boat looked at Wang Qinian with a worried heart.
Wang Qinian didn't care about them, he tried it under his feet, the boat was still relatively strong, and then looked around, Brown's body was lying there, and he was stabbed in the abdomen, and he asked, "How did this man die?"
"He, he was trying to save the lifeboat, and he was killed. A captive replied tremblingly.
Wang Qinian understood, shook his head, and sighed: "Business is not benevolent, I didn't expect to be a robber for the sake of money, but I gave my life." ”
Then he turned back and saw the captives and asked, "Why don't you run away?"
The captive shuddered, "We didn't get the ship. ”
Wang Qinian laughed and said to Dai Weiner beside him: "They still want to escape, but unfortunately there is no boat." ”
Davena said viciously, "Since you can't run, then use them to catch sharks." ”
As soon as these words came out, the captives all changed color, and many of the captives knelt down and shouted: "Master, spare your life!" Wang Qinian rolled his eyes and said to Dai Weina: "You only know how to fish for sharks, and I am still useful for people, forget it, order them to pack up this ship, and send some people to help, tidy it up, and repair the mast and the like, so that we can keep up with our ship." ”
Davena laughed, "I scared them, by the way, there's a captive over there, he didn't run enough, and he looked like a magician." ”
Wang Qinian had seen him a long time ago, but he saw that he was only a fourth-level mage, relatively young, and he still wanted to recover the magician, but Wang Qinian didn't know his details, and deliberately ignored him, so as to observe his reaction, and saw Dai Weiner say, so he turned around and walked towards him.
Wang Qinian didn't panic when he saw him, knowing that he relied on himself as a magician, pirates don't all have magicians, relatively speaking, magicians are a rare talent, many pirates don't have magicians, just like the pirates just now, Wang Qinian saw that there were at most two magicians, and there were six ships, and their magicians were obviously not enough and inexperienced, but among pirates, they were already okay, and pirates in the world, like Wang Qinian, were unique.
