Captain Armand was originally a little suspicious of Fang Sheyan's claim to be a sailor from the East - even in the real world, it is common for employees to exaggerate when applying for jobs - but after seeing his performance, his suspicions were immediately dispelled.
No matter how good a person is at pretending, he will never be able to fake the stability and calmness that only old sailors can have in the face of the power of the sea!
However, the injury on Kerry's leg was not completely healed. After being bumped in the boat, he vomited into a dizzy mess. He almost didn't vomit out all the gallbladder. However, Kerry had tried his best to emphasize his close relationship with Sheyan.
At this time, it also played a big role. Ben. Mogan, who had suffered the most at the hands of Sheyan, ran up and down to serve him. It seemed that he was taking a curve to save the country and wanted this person to
A cousin/savior said a few kind words in front of Sheyan to avoid the tragic fate of being kicked out of the cabin and spending the night in the open again.
The wind on the sea is getting stronger, and the waves are rising and falling layer by layer. Just looking at the ups and downs of the momentum, there is a majestic and irresistible force between heaven and earth. If you look down from above, the displacement
The 600-ton Bell and Wineglass, carrying a capacity of 200 people, was like a thin fallen leaf, floating up and down in the vast ocean, as if it would be overturned at any time.
But at this moment, a huge light suddenly flashed in the distant sky! It was as if dazzling lightning pierced the sky in an instant. At this moment, the skin of everyone who looked at the lightning was stained.
It was covered with a layer of luster, as if the electric light came to life and floated on their skin, and even the pupils became lonely. And the lookout hand on the sail, Boat, had already shouted loudly:
"The Flying Dutchman signals!"
"The enemy is in the west, eleven nautical miles away!"
Fang Sheyan knew the origin of the light just now, because he had heard someone say in the bar that Blackbeard, the captain of the legendary pirate battleship Queen Anne's Revenge, was proficient in black magic. This was the prominent warning mark he released, but this magic
But it has no attack power at all. It can be regarded as the Pirates of the Caribbean version of large fireworks. By the time of Pirates of the Caribbean 4, Blackbeard was even able to put legendary pirate ships such as the Black Pearl into a rum bottle.
As a collection, it can be seen that his black magic ability is superb.
After seeing the fireworks, Armand's body was as straight as a spear. He didn't know when he had put a dark black commander's hat on his head. He pulled out the rapier from his waist with a clang and shouted:
"Full left rudder! Raise the jib and head west at full speed!"
At this time, Armand's whole body flashed with dazzling white light. Under the point of his sword, the entire ship was shrouded in a faint white light. It is obvious that this ship has a special ability: Sliding Wind
It has begun to take effect, and the speed is greatly increased when sailing against the wind! The pirate ship's traveling speed increased again, accelerating to the west. According to Fang Sheyan's visual estimation, at least its moving speed has increased by more than 30!
Although the ship accelerated, by the time it entered the battlefield, the fighting was already in full swing! There is no doubt that the Black Pearl, the speed king of the Caribbean, will always be the first to arrive on the battlefield to launch an attack, followed closely by others.
What arrived was the Endeavor, which also had the ability to accelerate. Two battleships from the Armada were forced to appear to fight. Immediately afterwards, the Flying Dutchman arrived and sent a signal. When the Bell and the Wineglass crashed into a huge wave and rushed into the battlefield,
At that moment, the three merchant ships appeared in front of them as naked as undefended lambs!
"Ready~ Release!" Armand raised his silver stabbing sword again! With that powerful downward swing, the bell and the wine glass all tilted to the right, and at the same time ten tongues of fire spit out from the left
! White mist filled the air, and it was the ten cannons placed on the port side that began to fire. However, the Spanish businessman Fernandez was notorious for selling black slaves in the early days, so how could he be a fuel-efficient lamp? His three ships
Both the draft and the tonnage of the ship are not inferior to those of warships. It is a veritable armed merchant ship. The Bell and Shell fired ten cannons, and successfully hit at most two or three cannons. It was completely different from that thick-skinned armed merchant ship.
It doesn't pose any big threat!
However, Armand did not seem to have much hope for the bombardment of his ship. After a few symbolic bombardments, he directly ordered to speed up and prepare for a boarding battle! For the captain of the pirate ship, this is also
Their favorite method is that once the boarding battle is successful, they will not only plunder as much wealth as possible, but also seize the entire merchant ship. Of course, the risk of the boarding battle and the battle loss ratio of the sailors are also quite alarming.
Despite the huge waves and rolling whitecaps, the Bell and Wineglass relied on its incredible speed to sail parallel to the heavy merchant ship on the left. The distance between the two quickly shortened! It was about to successfully connect with the ship.
But at this moment, Sheyan felt that there was suddenly a huge pressure coming from the left. This pressure was invisible, but it was raging. It was not only difficult to resist, but even if it was contaminated, it would immediately
The feeling of being shattered to pieces!
Sheyan immediately rushed out and lay down on the deck. He took advantage of the situation and pulled down Kerry, who was at a loss next to him. The guy had just recovered and wanted to come out of the bottom cabin for some air, but was killed by Sheyan.
He grabbed his ankle and dragged him down. He fell flat on his face, blood spurted out from his nose, and almost two of his front teeth were knocked out. The guy was whimpering and reluctantly raised his head to curse, but at that moment he saw in horror: the one on the left
The deck of the merchant ship facing this side suddenly crackled open, revealing a neat row of black gun ports, densely packed and pointed directly at it. When everyone was still a little at a loss, a total of thirty-seven
The brand-new heavy cannon produced at the Seska-Zhipoljovka arsenal simultaneously spit out terrifying flames!
At this moment, the high-speed Bell and Wine Glass suddenly trembled and moved seven or eight meters horizontally, as if it was pushed hard from the left by an invisible giant hand, at least twenty
A heavy solid shell successfully bombarded its hull. It can be clearly seen that a large cloud of dust and smoke exploded from the right side of the Bell and Wineglass, which was made up of a large number of broken wood fragments and even flesh and blood.
What a tragic scene! Fernandez, the owner of this merchant ship, was so good at forbearing that he didn’t reveal his trump card until this moment!
After this salvo, the Bell and Wineglass suffered heavy losses. Because they were about to dock, at least 70% of the pirates gathered on the deck with great excitement. After this painstakingly planned salvo,
Xia Shao said that one-third of his men were casualties, and some of the pirates were even pushed alive into the sea by the air waves set off by the shells. Among those who fell at the reduced number was Scar Henry, the burly and bold first mate.
Because the giant man wanted to rescue his companions, his head was hit at high speed by a piece of shipboard debris the size of a washbasin. Not only did his head instantly bleed into a river, but he also fell into a coma, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
Fortunately, the cannons of this era are still in a relatively backward state. After firing once, they have to go through complicated and cumbersome procedures such as cleaning the barrel and reloading the burial powder. Moreover, for Fernandez, his job is still a businessman, not a soldier. He is a hired sailor.
He was not a skilled professional gunner, so the firing interval during this period was delayed relatively long. This undoubtedly gave Armand, who had experienced many battles, enough time to counterattack!
"Turn the steering wheel seventy degrees!"
Armand's body was still standing upright at this time, only his falcon-like eyes were particularly sharp and vicious, and his voice was like a whip hitting the pirates next to him! They immediately jumped up instinctively to carry out the order.
"Three square sails! Wind to starboard!"
"Lower four sails!"
As this series of orders were issued, Armand strode to the mainmast, raised the rapier in his hand and flicked it, and the huge mainsail slid down in an instant, roaring, and
The silver bayonet in Armand's hand emitted a dazzling white light, shrouding the entire ship, echoing the ramming angle at the tip of the bow. The entire Bell and Wineglass actually began to fight sideways in an instant, and was hit by gunfire.
When it was parallel to the merchant ship, the current rapid change of direction formed a T-shape with the merchant ship!
At this moment, the waves rushed towards you like a wall, but the bell and the wine glass broke through the huge waves at this moment, splashing water all over the sky, and relied on the high-speed inertia that had not yet been eliminated to crash into it crazily.
Enemy ship!
If previously the Bell and Wineglass was like a drifting and tough slender willow leaf in the vast ocean, then at this moment, when its captain completely dominates it! The pirate ship has turned into a silver in his hands.
The sharp blade of the stabbing sword! Slender, elegant, cruel, and indestructible! Aim at the enemy's abdomen with a kind of madness without hesitation!
