Chapter 34 Trap
By that time, the deputy leader of the shark-tooth pirate group and the invincible knight-level "White Shark" Skook will be nothing more than smoke to him.
You are fully capable of going wherever you want, building your own pirate group, and you no longer have to look at anyone's eyes.
The most important thing is to stay as far away from that crazy group leader as possible!
Touching the black sculpture, he clearly knew that hidden in this shipwreck-like sculpture was an evil undead that was full of hatred for order and the civilized world, and always wanted to launch the most brutal revenge on the human world.
But whether he was blind, confident, or desperate, he had the confidence to completely suppress it after changing jobs.
"With it, I, One-Eyed Becky, will definitely become a powerful transcendent and one day sit on the throne of the Pirate King of the Black Sea!"
Greed made him desperate, just because the effect of this ocean secret treasure was too powerful.
Every time a warship from a civilized country in the world of Order is sunk, the pirate ship holding it will receive a certain level of bonus. As long as you keep hunting warships, it will not be a dream to become a truly legendary warship in the end.
Cooperating with the "Shipwreck Mourner", an extraordinary profession that coexists with ships, Beqi is confident that he will become the king of the Black Sea sooner or later.
All of this led him to make the decision to openly attack the warship. After he succeeded once, he would open a large net in this water area and complete another hunt!
"Your Excellency, Captain, there is news from the observation deck that some garbage discarded on the ship was found on the sea. We are chasing in the right direction!" The first mate on the Warrior also reported to his captain with an excited face.
.
"Hahaha, tell the sailmaster to move forward at full speed, don't let this little mouse escape from under our noses."
"As you command, Your Excellency!"
Hey hey hey hey
Immediately, energetic shouts came from outside, and everyone was excited, as if the bounty was already at their fingertips.
Because their captain has been preaching to them that One-Eyed Bech once fought against a warship and injured the enemy one thousand and himself and lost eight hundred. He is definitely not our opponent. If you find him, you can defeat him. Merits and bounties belong to everyone who has contributed.
's crew.
In fact, the captain of the Warrior was able to climb to his current position with real credentials. He was not fooling the crew, but made a reasonable judgment based on common sense. He also firmly believed that his judgment would not be wrong.
The wind direction and speed were very good, and the Warrior opened its full sail and was able to run at a speed of up to six knots. After being separated from the Silver Wing for two hours, it finally "got what it wanted" and caught up with the expected black-sailed pirate ship.
The pirate ship parked on the side near the rocky island, as if it didn't expect anyone to discover them. When it saw the Warrior approaching with great momentum, it had just started to lift anchor and raise its sails.
Hurry to the challenge!
The naval officers and soldiers on the Warrior saw the pirates running in panic on the pirate ship, and their morale increased. They turned directly to the downwind and prepared to intercept the pirate ship that was slowly moving away and trying to escape.
Open the muzzle and sharpen the knife!
"Tsk! Do you really think you can kill us? Idiots fell into the trap and didn't realize it." The pirate officers hiding in the darkness of the pirate ship simultaneously showed bloodthirsty sneers, looking at the Warrior as if they were waiting to be slaughtered.
Pigs and sheep.
Because all the power of a sailing battleship relies on wind power, there is no doubt that the wind direction is important to the battleship in naval battles. There is no absolute advantage or disadvantage between upwind and leeward, but each has its own advantages in various tactics.
Although the Warrior's attack from downwind could open all two layers of gun ports, fully exert its firepower, and block the opponent's escape route, it unexpectedly played into the pirates' hands and fell into their trap.
Put down the telescope in your hand.
"Gagong, this prophecy was good. All the captured navy are yours!" One-eyed Beqi was very satisfied with the prediction made by Wizard Gargong. It was rare that he promised him the most desired spoils before the war started.
"Quack, thank you, Captain." The brown-skinned old man with a shriveled face and various bone ornaments opened his wrinkled mouth and grinned weirdly, with a black tongue, black teeth, and a black mouth, like a black mamba snake.
Equally terrifying and disgusting.
"Open the muzzle, slow down a little, don't scare our guests away."
"As you command, Captain!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A fierce artillery battle started first, with jumping cannonballs flying horizontally, ship planks bursting and masts broken, and from time to time, unlucky ones on the warships of both sides were crushed into pulp.
"ah"
"my leg"
No matter who is the hunter or who is the prey, the artillery battle at sea is brutal, which is fair to both the pirates and the navy.
The pirate ship in the upper wind took advantage of its wind power to slowly approach the Warrior, as if it was about to force a gang-up fight.
The Warrior wanted to give full play to the performance of the artillery on its battleship, fight while moving, and used the sea version of the kite tactic.
"Hold still, the gunnery commander, let me fire all the shells we have in reserve. It's still decades early for us to compete with warships in terms of firepower!"
"As you command, Your Excellency!"
Amidst the gunfire, the two ships gradually sailed out of the original waters. As long as they passed the rock ring arm extending from a rocky island, they would return to the deep water area.
At this time, a strange scene happened to the officers and soldiers of the Warrior.
The sails on the pirate ship gradually folded up, and the ship began to slow down slowly.
"Strange, what are they doing?"
The bearded captain of the Warrior put down the monocular in his hand, unable to understand the pirates' intentions, but he had to slow down in order to ensure the range of the artillery.
"The sail is long, lower it"
"Bang!" With a loud noise, the hull of the Warrior suddenly shook, and the huge force even threw many sailors on the deck into the sea.
"Oops, we've hit a rock!!"
The shouts from the crew made the bearded captain suddenly turn pale. He was so preoccupied with preventing the pirate ship from escaping that he forgot to observe the sea conditions and made the most unforgivable mistake.
The sailors on the ship were instantly panicked.
No one knows better than him the consequences of losing mobility in such a pursuit battle. The bearded captain closed his eyes in pain: "Continue to fire to prevent the pirate ship from approaching, send a distress signal, and notify the whole ship to wait for Colonel Geer's rescue!"
"
This is a difficult choice for him who has always been arrogant and arrogant, but compared with life, face is no longer important at this time.
As the shining red flares shot up into the sky, there was new action on the pirate ship.
Seven or eight small specially-made wooden boats were launched into the water. There were three pirates on each boat, one holding a torch and two people responsible for rowing. There was something covered with canvas in the boat.
This time, without the need for orders from the bearded captain, the experienced officers knew exactly what these damn pirates wanted to do. This damn pirate was simply an arson ship!
What kind of hatred is this? Your own warship has been stranded on the rocks, and you still want to send death squads to burn the ship?!!!
"Quick, fire fast, sink these arson ships!" The hysterical command of the gunnery commander almost changed the tone, but the gunners' own mood was not much better. They quickly loaded ammunition and fired wildly into the distance.
However, due to the grounding, the Courage rolled over, and all the cannons facing the pirate ships were turned upward. Shortly after the arson ship was launched, it hit the Universiade and sank two ships. However, when they came closer, the artillery could no longer attack.
It's their turn.
What's more, during this process, the artillery on the pirate ship did not stop at all. The continuous artillery fire made the officers and soldiers on the Warrior unable to raise their heads at all. The lowered lifeboats were also the first to set fire, completely cutting off the sailors' hope of escaping.
.
"Crazy, crazy, how dare they store so much flammable kerosene on the ship, aren't they afraid of turning themselves into fireballs?!"
