The bow of the ship, which is embedded with a metal impact device, is raised high. The already huge hull is raised, and the bow of the ship can be twenty or thirty meters above the water.
While riding the wind and waves, the downward-pressing bow and the force of the sea water pressed heavily on the hull of the enemy warship.
ah……
With screams of terror, the enemy ship was plowed under the warship and broken into two parts. The pirates left on board fell into the water one after another...
At the same time, the cannons on both sides of the ship were fired almost simultaneously. The powerful shells hit the enemy ships on both sides, blowing them to pieces in an instant!
At this moment, the Daxuan warship led by Xu Zun was attacking many enemy ships. Relying on its strong hull and powerful firepower, it defeated many of these pirate ships, leaving them unable to resist.
force.
Xu Zun discovered that most of the ships the pirates rode on could not be called warships. Although the hulls were not small, they had almost no combat capability.
Only a few ships were equipped with devices for ejecting fireballs, and as for those carrying cannons, almost none were seen.
Moreover, Xu Zun also discovered that the pirates sailed on a large number of large ships, but they were very dilapidated. Both the hulls and the sails were patched and patched, and many of the hulls still had unsightly attachments.
The shapes of the enemy ships are also all kinds of strange. There are primitive sea-going ships with oars, simple awning boats, and a large ship that looks like a giant sampan. Although it carries many people, it is extremely dangerous...
Xu Zun made a rough calculation and found that, including all these ships, they could hold about 10,000 people.
According to my own knowledge, although Izumo is an island country, it has the largest island in the East China Sea, with a population of at least one million.
In other words, these 10,000 people don’t look like a whole nation’s soldiers.
But then I thought about it, Izumo Country's military strength is limited, so it seems normal to have 10,000 troops across the country, right?
Xu Zun's guess was very correct. Since a large number of pirates had gone ashore on sampans, there were not many people left on board the ships, and their combat effectiveness was extremely limited.
When the Daxuan warship commanded by Xu Zun rushed over, it easily entered the enemy ship group, charging all the way, and was unstoppable.
With the roar of cannons, enemy ships were blown up on the sea one after another. There were fires and screams everywhere...
This Daxuan warship is much higher than the pirate ships. The soldiers on the deck are condescending, and the bows and arrows and artillery are fired downwards, which is enough to defeat the enemy.
Everyone finally understood why they had to go to the navy dock to snatch these warships at all costs!
If these three warships can be recaptured, their combat level will be greatly improved and their chances of sailing across the East China Sea will be increased.
boom……
The gunfire roared outside the deck, and the enemy's only effective attack was fireballs, but the fireballs could only be fired from a distance and could not hit nearby areas.
What's even more tragic is that those fireballs were placed on the enemy's deck, and after the artillery hit them, they ignited the fireballs, causing them to set themselves on fire...
Finally, when the enemy ships realized that they could not compete with the Daxuan warships, they quickly turned around and fled.
However, the sea was very windy and rough, and many ships collided with each other as they fled, causing many capsizing incidents...
Xu Zun knew that it was impossible to destroy all the enemy ships, so he did not pursue them hard.
Xu Zun's goal has obviously been achieved, and this is the effect he wanted.
Now that most of the enemy ships have been destroyed, more than half of the invading pirates will be unable to return by ship, which completely cuts off their retreat and disrupts their military morale.
When the invading pirates know that their home has been destroyed, there will inevitably be chaos within. And their original plan will inevitably be disrupted.
Xu Zun was good at putting himself in someone else's shoes. If he was an invading pirate, he would have known that Daxuan was not easy to deal with, so after occupying Yongming City, he grabbed some property and women and fled quickly. This is called quitting at the first sight.
However, it was fine when I came here, but now that I can't go back, it's all over!
In this way, what's the use of grabbing more things?
If we don’t retreat quickly, we’ll finish the retreat and we won’t even have the ticket to go back…
"Sir..." At this time, Xiao Zhennan, who was at the helm, asked Xu Zun, "What should we do next? Are we still going to pursue those scattered enemy ships?"
"How about..." Zhao Yu rolled his eyes and said, "Let's bring the boat closer to the seaside and blow up all the enemy's small sampans?"
Gu Ming
"No," Xu Zun said, "We are now trying to resolve the danger of Yongming. We must leave hope for the enemy to escape. We cannot push too hard."
"Oh... I understand!" Zhao Yu flattered him, "Master Xu is still foresighted!"
"By the way," Xu Zun asked Li Xing, "How are the injuries of the brothers?"
"Axiuzai is more serious," Li Xing said, "and is under treatment. Dai Long and Hou Zhen should be fine, but... we have lost a lot of brothers."
Li Xing looked sad.
"I just asked you to arrest a few alive," Xu Zun asked, "did you arrest them?"
"Caught," Li Xing nodded, "Caught four of them and knocked them unconscious!"
"Okay," Xu Zun said one word, "Trial!"
"Okay, um..." Li Xing agreed and then shrugged helplessly, "Sir, how are you going to interrogate? I don't think you understand the language, right?"
this……
Xu Zun raised his eyes and looked at Han Fei'er, who was bandaging a wound on the deck, but saw Han Fei'er taking off his coat and treating the gunshot wound on his shoulder.
Seeing the snow-white skin, Xu Zun couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and the guards quickly bowed their heads politely.
This woman...is too bold?
Although Xu Zun also lowered his head, his eyes kept rolling up. He didn't expect that the heroine also wore a Doudou...
"Ani..." Xu Zun had no choice but to call out to Ani and ordered, "Go and help Han Nuxia take care of her wounds. If that doesn't work, go down to the cabin!"
"Okay, you'll be fine soon!" At this moment, Ani was treating Ash's wound. After applying ointment, she came to Han Feier.
Han Feier was hit in the back by a musket before, and he couldn't handle it at all.
However, Han Feier still waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about the wound. Maybe I can communicate with them and bring them over for examination!"
"Someone can drive the boat!" Xiao Zhennan, who was steering the ship at the steering wheel, said, "Is there anyone who can drive the boat?"
Xu Zun thought that Xiao Zhennan was looking for someone to sail the boat for him because he wanted to go down and block Han Fei'er.
Who knows, he later added: "I can also speak some Donghai dialect, so I should be able to communicate with him!"
Xu Zun wiped his sweat, but he didn't expect that Daxia Xiao was very generous. His wife showing off her clothes in public was not as important as interrogating the prisoner.
These two couples...
The soldiers on the ship were all sailors, and one of them immediately stepped forward to replace Xiao Zhennan in sailing the ship.
Xiao Zhennan jumped from the bow of the boat, squatted next to Han Fei'er, and acted as translator with Han Fei'er.
A Ni felt at a loss what to do, so she had to turn to the other side and continue to treat Ash's wounds.
Soon, a pirate prisoner of war was awakened by Li Xing and others pouring cold water on him, and was escorted to Xiao Zhennan and his wife.
At this time, everyone discovered that the prisoner of war was not only short in stature, but also disgustingly dirty, with a smell of salty hairtail fish all over his body.
But I saw that his face was covered with thick stinking mud, and his hair was burned by the fire so that only half of it was left...
After being brought up, the pirate seemed to understand something and immediately began to speak a lot of foreign languages.
When Li Xing saw this man standing, he kicked him over and knocked him down, making him kneel on the deck.
At this moment, without Xu Zun’s reminder, Xiao Zhennan knew what to ask and immediately asked in a foreign language:
"Tell me! Where are you from? Why did you invade my Daxuan!!?"
