While Li Chongrun was packing up the ship with the crossbows, several small boats had already taken the opportunity to sway to the side of the building.
A few dense arrows hit the deck came over, and as the smell of tung oil drifted away, some heat seemed to rise at the same time.
"Do you set fire? Do you think I am Cao Cao?"
The catapult on the big ship that finally turned around successfully finally played a role again. A dark thing flew towards the tower ship in the hazy morning skylight.
However, God was standing on Li Chongrun's side today. The east wind suddenly rose, and the ball of objects similar to shells did not fly too far by the wind, but fell miserably on a fishing boat that was struggling to rush to the building.
A sticky thing immediately covered the deck of the boat. A water bandit holding a bow and arrow was about to light the torch tied to the arrow, caught off guard by tung oil, and the lit rocket in his hand fell on it.
Got on the boat.
Tung oil is flammable, and the sky-sky fire instantly swallowed the narrow hull, and the oil floating on the river was ignited.
Several figures on the boat, covered in flames, jumped down from the small fishing boat screaming, and disappeared in an instant in the whirlpool of the river.
Just as the sound of the clay pot was shattered, Li Chongrun was already pulled back to the cabin by Gongsun Lan.
Hearing a few shrill screams, Li Chongrun looked out from the window of the cabin on the second floor, and a huge ball of flames was rising from the river outside, which was very spectacular.
"That little boat has ordered itself? Are you planning to learn from Zhou Yu to burn the Red Cliff?"
Just when Li Chongrun was still lamenting that these water bandits were probably watching the Romance of the Three Kingdoms a lot, the bow cannon controlled by Rosa had already fired.
The fired boat was instantly swallowed by the river water, leaving only the stars of Mars flashing on the river surface twice, and it was destroyed in the surging river water.
"The big one who gathers fire, get rid of his catapult first!" There was no sound tube in the cabin, but the stairs leading to the first floor were here. Li Chongrun lay on the entrance of the stairs and shouted to the bottom: "Let the boat come first."
.”
A few answers came from the downstairs, followed by a nervous sound of a boar wiping the bore, and a sound of a wooden ratchet rotating at an angle adjusting the sound.
The two Kanglong cannons, which were the first to prepare, opened fire. After all, the big ship was about one and a half miles away, and the hit accuracy was much lower than before.
A shell fell apart and hit the river in front of the big ship. The water column soared into the sky immediately splashed and covered the figure on the deck of the big ship.
The second shell passed through the water column that the first shell splashed, and hit hard at the foundation of the catapult.
The catapult cart, which had been put on the string, lost its center of gravity and barely threw out the tung oil bomb that had been loaded, but it had no strength and was in the wrong direction. It actually threw it straight towards the sky.
The crock pot filled with tung oil fell over the air weakly, and broke it helplessly on the deck of the second floor of the ship, covering everything with a layer of tung oil.
An oil lamp that was hit by the shell just now was lying on the ground, shaking the faint flame. When the tung oil was poured, a huge fire instantly covered the upper layer of the ship.
Immediately afterwards, the pile of tung oil on the big ship was also ignited, and a burst of explosion occurred. The flames soared into the sky like a volcano erupted. The pale flames illuminated the surroundings as bright as daytime. Many bandits who had already landed on the shore saw the situation.
It was not good, so I started to climb onto the boat docked by the water, preparing to get on the boat and run away.
Several small boats that had already rushed to the gunship also gave up the plan of fire attack and rushed into the river in a hurry. The oars flew up and down like bees pinched by their bodies.
I just regret that my parents ran away to Jiangnan like they gave birth to a few legs.
However, the distance from the building boat was really close at this time. Several white cloth bags dragging with sparks were thrown off the building boat and landed on the small boats that were intending to escape.
A few flame flowers woven by flames and thick fog instantly bloomed on the small boats. Some human-shaped things were thrown out of the boat and smashed onto the river surface. They didn't even have time to scream.
, it sank.
"Drive the boat! Crash it over!"
I don't know if the crossbowman who had attacked him had been blown away by this local grenade, but Li Chongrun ignored the opportunity to take revenge. Some small boats began to shake their oars and left the shore, so he would not take this opportunity to harvest them quickly.
Bo, I am afraid that the escaped water bandits will cause trouble in the future.
"Kill!" A roar of shouts came from the shore. It turned out that the battalion, which was originally guarding the observation deck, also discovered signs of the enemy's retreat and had rushed to a distance from the river.
A sound of grenade explosion like a bean-exploding sound came from the riverside. Some ignition objects were piled on several small boats, which were ignited by the explosion, and fires soaring into the sky were gradually ignited.
Two medium-sized pirate ships saw that Li Chongrun was already rushing over with murderous intent. Fires and smoke were emitting along the road, and unreasonably sank several small boats that had already left the shore.
.
The traitors were shocked by the tragic situation of the shaved crossbowboat just now. Seeing that he really had no chance to escape, several ships that were still floating on the water stretched out a piece of rag from the cabin.
The white cloth came out and surrendered and surrendered.
The few figures seemed to be the leaders of the water bandits. They wanted to fight back stubbornly, but they were cut down to the ground by the water bandits beside them.
When the first battalion of factory guards in gray cloth uniforms arrived, they almost suffered any resistance and soon escorted a long list of water bandits back to the shore.
Except for a few small boats with great life who relied on their small flexibility and good luck to avoid the name of the cannons on the gunship, most of the enemies had either sunk into the river to feed the fish or surrendered.
Only the big ship that was still burning with a raging fire was still floating alone on the river surface, without knowing life and death.
"We have to find a way to put out the fire on the ship."
Wang Rong crawled out of the cabin with a pale face. He didn't know if he was seasick or sick, but his face looked ugly.
He was a little anxious when he saw the raging flames on the boat: "I don't know if the leader of the water bandit is still on the boat, and it would be a pity that such a big ship would burn it like this."
"Extinguish the fire first!"
There were a few grenades left in the box at Li Chongrun's feet, and they lit them and threw them to the waterline of the big ship.
A few explosions came, and the water column rose like a fountain, but few splashed on the deck of the big ship. The flames dimmed a little, and soon returned to the burning appearance.
"Hey, this method is not working." Li Chongrun touched his nose awkwardly, and found that he had thought things too simple.
"It's better to use a stupid method." Wang Rong did not have the power to command the gunship, but Li Chongrun had it. He shouted a few times, and a water truck stretched out from the side of the ship into the river. Several young men squeaked and stepped on the water.
Cars, several gunmen from the Second Battalion carried buckets and collected water on the side and spilled them onto the large ship that was already relying on.
Fortunately, the wood of the big ship was not particularly flammable, and dozens of buckets of water were poured on it. A piece of space that could be jumped out on the big ship had been cleared. A few people jumped up after seeing the empty space and took some brooms.
Things like buckets began to extinguish the fire.
Half an hour passed when the fire was completely extinguished, and the sky was already bright.
Wang Rong rested on the gunship for a while, his face had improved a lot. When he saw that everyone near him had gone to the big ship, he couldn't help but feel curious and wanted to go to the big ship to take a look.
The wind gradually became a little louder, and the gunship and the big ship were pushed by the wind and collided one after another, making a banging sound.
"What's wrong with Arong? I've been listless all day today?"
After realizing it, Li Chongrun realized that Wang Rong was in a bad mood. He walked to the edge of the boat and reached out to pull him over, touched his forehead, and did not have a fever, so he felt relieved.
"I have a stomachache, I don't know why." Wang Rong took Li Chongrun's arm and stepped over, looking left and right on the big ship, "This ship looks different from our usual building ship."
"I also think it's different. The decoration and style look a bit weird, not like ours." Li Chongrun let go of Wang Rong and walked to a base half burned by the fire.
There are still half of the drum remains.
"At least, no one in our ship would put a big drum on the boat."
"And the colors of these carvings and paints are somewhat like the things of the Japanese in the east."
Wang Rong has recently sold some things to Japanese merchants from the east, so he is quite familiar with their decorations and heralds.
"The uppermost layer above has been burnt out. There are several roasted corpses on this layer, none of which look like the leaders of the water bandits. They have been thrown into the river to feed fish. No important things have been found yet."
Li Chongrun held the iron mace and poked left and right on the cabin, trying to find the entrance to the lower cabin.
The upper debris that were burned by the fire were piled up everywhere, and I couldn't find any way to the bottom of the cabin for a while.
The ship is very big, more than ten feet long in front and back. The base with big drums is raised high at the stern, which is very eye-catching.
Wang Rong felt that the base seemed to be too high, and it was even taller than the two-story tower in front of him, so he crawled over and wanted to see if there was something hidden inside.
When Li Chongrun saw him approaching, he also followed him with the iron mace.
Pushing away a piece of broken wood and debris that blocked the base, a small door that was the same color as the surrounding wood leaked out.
"Be careful! Who knows if there is anyone inside!" Li Chongrun covered Wang Rong behind him and carefully poked open the small door that had been tightly closed with his iron mace.
"Swoosh!Swoosh!"
The sound of two crossbows fired sounded the moment the door was opened. Li Chongrun, who was prepared, blocked the arrow shot towards him, but the other arrow penetrated between his legs and armor.
"The shopkeeper is caught in an arrow, hurry up and send him to the hospital!" Gongsun Lan's voice sounded.
An arrow was inserted into the robe between Wang Rong's legs, and a dim blood stain was dyed from the robe.
