Chapter Twenty-Nine, The Great Battle on the Ship
Enemy attacks did not come from one direction, but from all directions. Like a plague of locusts, those corners that can be seen and cannot be seen are full of unfamiliar faces, the weapons of black pressure reflect the bright light, and the wet body exudes a strong killing intent.
The guards of the big ship came in from behind, and without orders from men, they were scattered as much as they could, to where they were most needed.
Among them, the battle on the left side of the ship was tight, and the enemy had already climbed up, and on the right side of the ship, three or four guards had been killed, and the enemy was quite numerous, and it was about to be lost. Only the stern and bow of the ship remained under control, but the old knife believed that the situation in front of him would only get worse, and sooner or later the enemy would all climb up.
It was the largest attack on the ship since it sailed, and the rest of the attacks were always small-scale assassinations. At first, he was also worried that the ship's guards would panic and cause chaos.
But the real situation is very satisfying.
The situation eased somewhat as a large number of escorts joined the battle.
The enemy continued to emerge from the water and under the water, and in the blink of an eye, the attack on the shore also began.
The drunk-looking people that Lao Dao saw before were really not good things.
They came out of nowhere, and suddenly their numbers increased considerably, shouting haphazard slogans, and strode towards the big ship. It had approached the bow of the ship in an instant, and a group of people from the big ship immediately drew up to block it, and the two sides quickly fought together.
The old knife's heart was shocked, and when he looked at the current situation, it was clear that he was surrounded! With a continuous swing of the knife in his hand, he cut a few ropes, and the enemy fell into the water with a crackle, and the sound was very similar to dumplings.
The number of enemies was incalculable, far beyond his expectations.
Fortunately, before that, the second brother took precautions. After dinner, an order was issued, all going out was forbidden for the time being, everyone cheered up, and was not allowed to sleep, so when the attack was launched, the guards squinted at most, so they could organize their equipment and join the battle in a short time.
His clever calculation made the old knife admire.
Otherwise, in the face of a sneak attack of this magnitude, it will definitely not be enough to rely on those defensive forces in peacetime.
"Are reinforcements coming so soon?" the man frowned as he looked at the situation on the big ship, he tore off his hat and muttered, "What a wretched bunch of fellows!"
"It came at the right time. The old knife smiled slightly, and said, "I thought you were going to be down there all the time!" After speaking, he faced the short spear stabbed by the man, and swung out an unhurried, unhurried and impatient knife.
The other man blocked it with a short gun, twisted in a particularly strange position in the air, stood on the railing, and then raised his proud head.
"That's it?" said the man, pointing his short gun at the old knife, "this is the most common knife I have ever seen." ”
"The trick is not in the flashiness. The old knife said, "It's good to be practical." ”
"Insolence, shoot me!" the man said, and in an instant, his foot smashed the railing, like an arrow from the string, and came straight to the old knife.
The old knife was calm and unhurried, and he was not in a hurry to shoot, waiting for the man's short gun to reach his chest, he picked up the knife, and the short gun changed the path and stabbed diagonally upward, the man was taken aback, and said in his heart, "It's not good." ”
Then, the knife in the old knife's hand was only left with the remnants of the Dao, and the flying dazzle.
The man fell from the air to the ground after only a short moment, but he was hit by countless knives, and he lay on the ground, dying, "That's it?"
"That's it!" replied the old knife, and slashed it down.
While the old knife was dealing with the man, several men on the same ship also jumped onto the deck. Then, ignoring his dead companions, he immediately went to the cabin to kill.
"Protect the lord!" the old knife shouted, caught up with one of them, and with a swing of the knife, the man fell instantly. Then, the two of them turned around at the same time and engaged the old knife. However, under the quick knife, they were turned into corpses in an instant.
As the old knife had expected, the enemy poured onto the deck of the ship and fought to the death with the guards, and the scene was chaotic, with both sides killed and wounded. The old knife moved towards the cabin with a few people, and cut down several enemies from the side in succession.
Standing at the door, the old knife looked inside and asked, "How is the lord?"
In the cabin, there were more than a dozen guards standing here, and one of the men replied, "I was frightened, I hid in the room and didn't dare to come out." ”
"The enemy is menacing, and it is estimated that it will not be over for a while. The old knife commanded in a commanding tone, "You guard this door, and from now on, whoever comes in from here will be solved." ”
"What about our own people?"
"Same!" said the old knife categorically.
"Yes!"
After saying that, the old knife scattered the people around the door, and guarded the gate alone.
The deck was a bloody slaughter, with guards and enemies completely intertwined.
The sound of swords, shouts of killing, moaning, falling water, all the sounds are combined, and the sound is endless, like the battlefield of two armies.
The enemy had the same goal, and they rushed towards the cabin like crazy, and were intercepted by guards on the way. Break through the interception of the person and continue to kill to the door. In the end, I have to pass the old knife level.
But they are the opponents of the old knife?
Although every enemy knows some means, in front of the old knife and fast knife, they all become flower fists and embroidered legs, and often they can't bear the old knife's moves, and they die on the spot.
In less than a stick of incense, the old knife slashed seven or eight enemies, blood splattered everywhere, and he himself was like a bloody man.
The other guards, each with their own gains. Of course, there were also guards who fell down and did not get back up.
The number of enemies did not form an overwhelming advantage over the guards on the big ships, and the individual strength of the guards on the big ships was slightly superior, and under these two premises, the white-hot battle was destined to last short.
The enemy's invincible edge immediately dimmed after being blocked by the guards, and the command errors at the leadership level made the battle enter garbage time.
In a one-on-one situation, the enemy's flaws in strength are now exposed, which is tantamount to a slaughter between applause and being played by the guards. There are a few ordinary powerhouses among them, and as for the first-class masters, the old knife is not one. However, the strength of the guards on the big ship has been carefully selected, and although they are not as good as the old sword, they are not vain. The enemy's masters, besieged by several guards, also died a lot, and most of the rest were wounded.
To the end, the enemy had no intention of fighting, and someone suddenly blew a whistle, probably an order to retreat. As a result, the old knife saw that the enemy was like a rat crossing the street and retreating in a panic, and many of them even jumped directly into the water, struggled a few times, and sank.
The guards on the ship all knew it, and no one went down to chase them. Instead, he turned around and began to silently check his injuries, clean up the battlefield, carry corpses, and take care of the wounded, all of them were extremely calm, as if they were commonplace.
The whole battle lasted less than two sticks of incense, and it was hastily over.
There were casualties on both sides, and the enemy paid an even greater price.
The person in charge of cleaning up the battlefield counted the losses of both sides.
A total of 30 enemy corpses were found on the deck, and this does not include those who disappeared after falling into the water, those who could not survive after being seriously wounded, and the price paid by the enemy when they forcibly boarded the ship, it was preliminarily determined that the death toll of the enemy should be about fifty.
On the side of the big ship, the loss figure was accurate to eleven guards, and another twelve people were injured, three of them were seriously injured, and if they survived, it would depend on the follow-up treatment.
After listening to the report, the old knife asked people to carry the seriously wounded to the cabin below for treatment, and arranged secret posts underwater, on the water, and on the shore to prevent the enemy from coming back, and then sneak attack from these directions.
Especially underwater, which was a blank field in the old knife's previous preparations, the enemy reminded him tonight at the cost of blood.
Then, the old knife took off his bloody clothes, opened his chest, and sat in front of the door for a while, before he got up and knocked on the door.
