Zheng Jie's soldiers rushed forward and prepared to cut the rope with axes to separate the two ships.
Suddenly there was a loud noise. Boom boom boom!
On the stern bridge, higher towards the side of the old lock ship and slightly higher than the deck of the old lock ship, three Franco machine guns opened fire.
The shot came like a storm. Sweeping across the deck with a slap in the face.
Yang Fan's artillery now uses custom shells wrapped in silk, and the shotshells are steel balls recovered from scraps collected by idiots. These steel balls are rusty, but absolutely hard. The silk can be burned completely, leaving almost no residue, and you don’t need to shoot for a while to clear the barrel. This increases the rate of fire.
The Franco machine gun is a breech-loaded gun, and the ammunition is loaded with a blunderbuss. The rate of fire is extremely fast. If you fire continuously, you can fire once in five seconds. The muskets are all loaded in advance. After shooting, use the handle above to lift it down, put another one up and continue firing.
The three Franco machine guns fired rapidly, pouring out thirty rounds of shotgun shells in a short period of time.
Kill the pirates who were climbing up, the sailors operating the ship on the deck, and the pirates who rushed out to look at the ropes.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Lao Heiyu grabbed Zheng Jie and pulled him behind a pile of barrels. Then steel balls rained down on his face. Despite this, a steel ball still got into Zheng Jie's calf.
"Ah! It hurts me so much." Zheng Jie shivered in pain.
The people on the deck were not so lucky. There were dead bodies lying on the ground, and many people were rolling and wailing. Even the sails were riddled with holes. Like a rag.
Chen Zuwang yelled: "Concentrate firepower on me and hit their helmsman. Others throw grenades upwards."
The gunners of the three Franco machine guns immediately changed their guns, used solid spherical bullets, and opened fire immediately. The pirates were completely stunned by the fierce firepower. Don't dare to show your head at all.
With the roar of the Folan cannon, the steering gear and helmsman of the old lock ship were hit by spherical bullets one after another. After all, the two ships were tied together. How could they miss at such a close distance of more than ten meters.
The wooden structure of the steering wheel was reduced to pieces of sawdust. The flying wooden thorns penetrated many people's bodies, and most of the sailors at the helm were injured immediately.
The debt was repaid quickly in June, and now it's the pirates' turn and they can't leave.
The infantry team protecting Lin Yueru immediately took advantage of the height, lined up in three rows, fired in three sections, and began to suppress the opponent's deck with firepower.
The sailors of the Star held bayonets and stabbed the pirates who were crawling back to death on the side of the ship one by one. Then he threw a bunch of grenades up and climbed up in the smoke of the explosion.
The sailors of the Star were calm and steady, and they didn't take these pirates seriously at all. They dispersed into groups of five and began to search for remaining enemies.
Zheng Jie was completely dumbfounded. He was sure of victory just now, but in the blink of an eye, his own people were hiding around like mice.
This doesn't work, you must rush out and get involved with them, so that their advantage in firearms cannot be used. Your own people are good at hand-to-hand combat and have a chance to make a comeback. Otherwise, your group will be destroyed at sea.
net
"Brothers, rush out and fight them." Zheng Jie shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Come out and fight them," Lao Heiyu also shouted loudly.
All pirates understand that this is their last chance, and people need to be bold in desperate situations. If you hide like this, you can only be beaten into pieces one by one by the opponent with a musket.
Immediately, the remaining hundred or so sailors gave up steering the ship and all other work, grabbed various weapons, and rushed out.
Suddenly, there was a scuffle on the deck.
More than seventy people climbed up from the Star, all carrying rifles. This flintlock gun with a bayonet is 1.8 meters long, almost as long as a flower gun.
When fighting with cold weapons, an inch longer is an inch stronger, and long weapons have the advantage.
During the Anti-Japanese War, the length of the Japanese 38-gun and bayonet was more than 1.7 meters, while the Hanyang Peace Center was only over 1.6 meters long, so it suffered a big loss in the battle with the bayonet.
In order to make it easier for them to fight in gangs, pirates had to hold the back of the knife with their mouths and use both hands to climb, so their knives were not very long, generally no more than 80 centimeters. The short one is only fifty or sixty centimeters.
When the sailors of the Star saw the opponent rushing forward to fight hand to hand, they immediately retracted their formation and formed a small pentagonal square formation in groups of five. He raised his bayonet and fought with the pirates without fear.
Yang Fan's system of bayonet fighting is a compulsory course for infantry. After all, although firearms have begun to be used in large quantities in the late Ming Dynasty, fighting with cold weapons is still the main method of combat.
Sailors are no exception.
Use two double-barreled handguns at close range, a flintlock gun at long range, and a bayonet for melee combat.
He usually wears leather armor, a mask and a helmet, and practices with wooden guns for an hour every day, which makes the soldiers vomit. Over and over again, Yang Fan selected a dozen movements based on my rabbit and foot pot chicken sex manual. It's almost all muscle memory.
It can be said that you can respond correctly to both formations and routines with your eyes closed.
Both sides gathered together, Zheng Jie shouted excitedly from behind, "Playing with knives, we are their ancestors, brothers, come on"
But he was soon dumbfounded.
These sailors wearing strange clothes walked in a flexible and orderly manner, five of them in a group, forming a formation like a plum blossom, constantly stretching, contracting, advancing and retreating. No matter which direction they attacked, they had to face three men and three bayonets.
One is resisting head-on, while the other two are waiting for an opportunity to make a sneak attack. And the fit is perfect. The steps jumped as fast as lightning. He was in front of his eyes in a blink of an eye, and he was retreating two meters away in the blink of an eye.
The one-eyed dragon Li Dafu raised his nine-ring ghost-headed sword and slashed at a sailor. The soldier thrust his bayonet straight into his chest without dodging.
Li Dafu was startled. There are two movements for cutting a person with a knife, first lifting it up and then cutting it down. But there is only one movement for stabbing a person with a spear, which is just to stab forward.
Therefore, before Li Dafu's knife hit anyone, he was already pierced by the bayonet.
Under normal circumstances, most people would not use this seemingly lose-lose style of play, which would simply lead to mutual destruction.
But after Yang Fan and the others broke down the movements of these moves in detail, they found that as long as they don't hesitate and are brave enough to stab the opponent directly without defending, they can directly stab the opponent to death. After the opponent is hit by the bayonet, they will immediately lose their physical strength. In fact, It cannot be cut down.
However, most people don't have the courage. When they see a knife, their first reaction is to dodge. Yang Fan and others have analyzed in detail that as long as you hide, the initiative will be in the hands of the opponent, and you will be unable to advance or retreat. The opponent will bite you to death, one knife after another, and the recruits like yourself will most likely be in trouble.
The method of cracking is also simple, which is mechanical training. After repeated training, they have become numb and know how to deal with it. Their muscles react first without waiting for their brains. Just like driving a car, if there is a situation, you don't think about it, and you hit the brake first.
Li Dafu is an old pirate. He is in charge of thirty brothers. Today, twenty-five of them were killed when he jumped into a gang.
He was so frightened that he quickly put away the knife midway. The Ghost Head Sword was very wide, twenty centimeters wide. As soon as he withdrew it, he just used the blade to block the bayonet.
The tip of the bayonet pierced the body of the knife, sending out a spark.
Li Dafu was so shocked that his hands went numb. The tiger's mouth is very painful. I cursed in my heart, this little brat with no hair at all has so much strength.
The sailor opposite was only sixteen years old, and he still had tiny fuzz on his lips. A young baby face. At first glance, he looks like a silly boy.
Wang Goudan became a soldier last year, and the treatment in the navy was much better than that in the army. He ate meat, drank milk and had enough vegetables every day. Coupled with the brutal training, the body became as strong as a balloon.
He bayoneted a thousand times every day. All stung to the point of numbness. Both arms no longer looked like their own. Coupled with training in leather armor, he has already become very familiar with stabbing.
Today he has stabbed three pirates to death, and has received a reward of three taels of silver. Unexpectedly, this guy has two brushes. He stabbed so fast, but he was able to see the opportunity in advance, withdraw to defend, and actually used this brush. The broad broadsword blocked the bayonet.
Just when Li Dafu blocked the bayonet and breathed a sigh of relief, the two sailors on both sides of Wang Goudan suddenly rushed out, and the two bayonets plunged into Li Dafu's soft abdomen under both ribs like lightning.
Li Dafu's eyes widened in horror. He didn't know how these three people could cooperate so seamlessly.
But the two sailors didn't have time to argue with him. They kicked him directly and pulled out their bayonets. This kind of coordination was practiced to the point of vomiting during the leather armor and equipment sparring between the two teams. If there is anything to say, to them it is just like eating and drinking.
With a clang, the Ghost-headed Blade fell to the ground. Li Dafu tried in vain to cover the two blood holes with both hands to prevent the blood from flowing out.
But he soon discovered that this made no sense at all.
The backs of the bayonets of these bastards were all serrated. Although he didn't know that they were multifunctional bayonets that could be used to saw trees, at this moment, his intestines were pulled out and dropped to the ground.
Once this kind of bayonet hits, there is absolutely no chance of survival.
Li Dafu opened his eyes wide, made a gurgling sound in his throat, and threw himself on the deck.
All this happened in the light of the calcium carbide fire. Wang Goudan's team didn't even look at him. They directly launched an attack on the pirates approaching from the left and right respectively. Amid a burst of screams, both the left and right sides A pirate was bayoneted to death.
Zheng Jie's whole body felt numb as he watched, and waves of electric current flowed through his body. The hands and feet are limp. Like falling from a height in a dream.
Who are these people? The old thieves who he brought out with his own hands are like boiling soup and throwing snow in front of these 16 or 17-year-old brats.
At this moment, he felt so regretful that he wanted to hit the mast with his head. If he hadn't been greedy, why would he be like this? This ship obviously didn't want to fight with him.
He thought of the gold and letters in the cabin, and trembled with fear. If something serious happened, he and his family would be in doom.
At this time, he saw Old Heiyu rushing forward with the last guard, still shouting, "Master Jie, run the boat quickly."
This is the depth of the East China Sea, holding a wooden board and jumping into the sea, almost to the point of death. But it's better than being stabbed to death with a bayonet now. Maybe we can meet a merchant ship to save our lives.
He watched as Old Heiyu's men were stabbed to death one by one. Old Heiyu waved his swords with both hands wildly, dancing like a whirlwind. Keep people around you away.
However, five cubs surrounded him on all sides, and three of them attracted his attention, lunged forward, and made a fake move. Then, the remaining two men suddenly thrust like lightning, and two bayonets pierced directly into Old Heiyu's lower back.
All of a sudden, Lao Heiyu was forced to squat down.
Old Heiyu covered his waist and gritted his teeth in pain. He didn't want to lose his dignity in front of these brats. This is the persistence of a pirate group.
He could no longer stand up.
Wang Goudan showed no mercy and stabbed his bayonet directly into his neck, then kicked him in the neck and pulled out the bayonet. Old Heiyu twitched for a while on the deck, his eyes were blurred, and he gradually became motionless.
Zheng Jie is also used to fighting at sea, but these little brats have no emotions, no sloppiness, no unnecessary movements, and no emotional fluctuations in killing the enemy.
The most terrifying thing is that from the time they climbed onto the boat until now, no one has said a word, and everyone has been silent, as if they were doing a boring job.
This made him shudder, who exactly were these people.
Seeing the expressionless young faces surrounding him with bayonets in hand. Zheng Jie collapsed and knelt down trembling. He raised his hands above his head and threw the knife far away on the deck.
"Don't kill me. I have important information and there are 300,000 taels of gold on the ship. I am useful to your master."
