Chapter 237: A Chance to Reverse Push

Several Western masters represented by Rogers were still struggling to support, but they were not trying to win the battle, but hoping to delay more time so that their own fleet could come over and surround Li Xian's team.

With their third-order force and magical equipment, even if they can't be defeated, they can still find a chance to jump into the water and escape, but they are not very worried that they will be besieged to death.

Li Xian originally wanted to attack the green giant who was fighting against Qiao Daqing, but in the end, his heart moved, so he ran to Wang Jiuxuan's side and besieged Rogers with a round shield.

Wu Sanniang and Ren Yingying naturally took Li Xianma as the first step and went together to attack Captain America Rogers.

At this moment, Rogers couldn't help but change color, the round shield in his hand was infinitely useful, and he also had the power to protect himself against any opponent.

It's just that the round shield can only cover one side at most, and there is no way for someone to go around to the other side of the shield to attack, so they are most afraid of siege.

At this time, Li Xian and the other four people stood in four directions, attacking Rogers respectively, better poking his weakness, Rogers' strength is not as good as Li Xian, his martial arts skills are not as good as Wang Jiuxuan, and there are two women who attack together, but they can't get out, and if they are not careful, they may not be able to jump into the water and escape, and they will be captured or killed.

Several Western masters who were still stubbornly resisting couldn't help but change color when they saw this, first the red-armored monster, then Bruce and the green giant, and finally the blonde master with a giant hammer, who set aside their opponents and came to support Rogers.

Rogers has a special status, not only as their comrade-in-arms, but also as the captain of their team, and it would be a great shame for all of them if he was allowed to be killed or captured by Li Xian's side.

At this moment, the Western warriors were in chaos, Li Xian held the jungle knife and saw the move, and confronted others, slashing the enemy several times, and he also suffered a few minor injuries.

In the end, those Western warriors broke through the siege and fled, ran to the side of the ship and jumped overboard.

"Damn, it's boring to let them run away in this situation. Li Xian couldn't help but look uncertain when he saw that all the enemies had fled.

"It's not like it's all without a harvest, so I finally got a shield out. Wang Jiuxuan didn't think so, picked up a round shield from the ground, and handed it to Li Xian.

Li Xian took it and looked at it, the shield was heavy, with a huge red five-pointed star painted in the middle, which happened to be the shield used by Rogers, and it looked very strong.

By this time, the battle had come to an end, and the British soldiers disguised as sailors were defeated by the combined attack of the warriors and the escorts, and many of them jumped into the water.

It's just that the battle was won, but Li Xian couldn't be happy, this time the warriors and guards on Li Xian's side suffered heavy losses, not to mention that there were dozens of big ships around the periphery.

"Pingzhi, how long will it take for the British ship to come?" Li Xian shouted, asking Lin Pingzhi, who was still on the watchtower of his own ship.

"The nearest ship is about four nautical miles, and it should arrive within half an hour!" Lin Pingzhi hurriedly replied from the watchtower.

"Damn!" Li Xian cursed.

In this case, it was almost impossible to break through in the encirclement of dozens of British ships.

Even if there is a breakthrough, on the vast sea, it is just a fantasy to rely on the convoy that has been in the army for less than a year to get rid of the experienced British ships.

Although this encounter was over, the situation on Li Xian's side did not become much better, and there was a possibility of annihilation if he was not careful.

"When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, fight with them, I don't believe we can't rush out. Qiao Daqing was brave and said coldly.

"Okay, Qiao Daqing is a pioneer, after I come to the palace, at least I can ensure that most people can return to Leizhou. Wang Jiuxuan also gritted his teeth and said.

The other warriors were also full of determination and asked Li Xian to fight.

At this moment of crisis, Li Xian smiled, as if the urgency just now had left him.

Qiao Daqing just said that "the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road", which reminded him that this battle was fought in Chinese waters after all, and they still had many options to do.

"It's not time to fight hard, and we don't have a chance to turn defeat into victory right now.

Passing my order, immediately take control of the newly captured British ships, and then all the ships turned around and entered the Yonggu waterway. Li Xian said with a slight smile.

Under the command of Li Xian, the fleet from Leizhou resumed its movement again.

By this time, the enemy on the British merchant ships had been completely wiped out, and the warriors and escorts who had jumped to the ships began to withdraw one after another, leaving only fifty or sixty members to control the ships.

Fortunately, most of the battle was fought on deck, and although the battle was fierce, the damage to the ship was not great, and the rudders, steering wheels, masts, and soft sails were all available, and the maneuvers began to resume under the operation of these escorts who were familiar with the handling of Western ships.

As for the other ships, they left the British side one by one and reformed their sailing formation.

In the end, three thousand-ton ships were in front and three small boats were in the middle, and the captured British merchant ships gradually sailed into the Longgu waterway.

As mentioned earlier, the Lung Kwu Waterway is a waterway between Lantau Island and the Kowloon Peninsula, which looks very spacious, but only a small part of the north side can be navigated, and the south side is so muddy that it is impossible to move boats at all.

The encirclement of the British fleet was carried out from the east and west, that is to say, more than a dozen large ships came from the west to block the escape route of Li Xian's fleet like the ocean; from the east side of the Longgu Waterway, there was also a warship with more than a dozen ships to prevent Li Xian's fleet from escaping from entering the Longgu Waterway.

Originally, this was a foolproof strategy, no matter what Li Xian's fleet did, it was impossible to escape from the encirclement, but the person in charge made a big mistake that was not a mistake from the perspective of inertial thinking, which would cause the British to suffer unimaginable losses.

In addition, there were about a dozen British ships coming from Macao, the Pearl River Estuary, and other directions, commanded by the British warship "Warren," and the displacement tonnage of the fleet reached about 20,000 tons, and the number of naval guns also reached several hundred.

Smith, the captain of the "Warren", looked at the actions of Li Xian's fleet, but he was a little puzzled.

"These pirates are not in a hurry to escape, and they have to enter the Longgu Waterway, isn't this looking for death?

Our fleet was encircled on both sides, and they couldn't run away if they wanted to. ”

Captain Smith could clearly see that the pirates' strength was actually not strong, and three of the 1,000-ton ships were previously missing, as well as a Portuguese-style boat and two traditional Chinese boats, indicating that the pirates first owned these three small boats, and there was no hidden secret strength.

If the pirate fleet turns around and escapes at this time, maybe one or two ships can escape after a fierce battle and take the initiative to enter the Longgu Waterway, then even the last chance of life will be gone.

"Yes, they are completely surrounded by us, and they can't run from heaven to earth. His first mate happily chimed in.

"But—" Captain Smith was about to say something, when his face suddenly changed, and he thought of a possibility, and couldn't help but shout: "Order all ships to move quickly, sail at full speed, and be sure to stop the other party before they enter the waterway." ”

Seeing the first mate looking at him strangely, Captain Smith couldn't help but explain with a wry smile: "We are so bent on surrounding these pirates that we have forgotten one thing, that is, this sea area does not belong to the British, and we are at war with the British.

These pirates are in a hurry, they can really go to the sky and the earth, even if the ship can't escape, people can still run. ”
