Blue sparks burst out from the muzzle, Russell pulled the trigger, and magic bullets were fired one after another.
As the muzzle of the gun moved, the soldiers in front were shot and fell one by one. There was a hole (small) in front of them and a hole (large) behind them.
Well, the holes here refer to bullet holes!
The heroic commander's entire face was smashed, and besides him, eighteen other East India Company soldiers died on the spot.
Simple! high speed!
Russell took only three seconds from firing to stopping.
In the age of flintlock guns, taking out a semi-automatic pistol was basically equivalent to the black technology of cheating. Especially this one that has been modified by magic, the Sand Eagle God, with its amazing penetrating power and Russell's super fast hand speed, it can be used as an anti-personnel weapon.
Regardless of the pause time when the barrel overheats, it can barely be regarded as an anti-military weapon.
This scene shocked Barbossa and others. The impact was no less than that of primitive people who saw a UFO. They all froze in place with their mouths wide open.
"Xiao Feng, let's go."
Russell turned around and walked towards the back of the bathhouse. Sao Feng and Tai Huang reacted quickly. It wasn't until the three figures disappeared that Barbossa and the others came back to their senses and ran all the way to chase the figures in front of them.
The continuous sound of gunfire frightened the soldiers outside the door, who mistakenly thought that the pirates inside still had enough ammunition. In addition, the commander was dead, and it took a while without any orders before they dared to rush in.
It was too late, and the house was already empty. The soldiers did not bother to clean up the battlefield and chased after the group of people who had escaped. However, just as they rushed out of the back door of the bathhouse, a pinch of gunpowder ignited, and at the end was a bomb planted by the pirates.
"Boom! Boom boom!!!"
The flames of the explosion soared into the sky, the sound was deafening, the roof was lifted into the air, and the entire bathhouse was torn apart and burned into a sea of fire. The soldiers caught in it were either killed on the spot, or they were covered in flames and rolling on the ground wailing. Looking at this scene of hell on earth, no one had the courage to chase the pirates who left.
Russell and others were walking halfway when they heard the explosion behind them and accelerated their pace again. Under the leadership of Tai Huang, they arrived at the port as quickly as possible.
To be precise, it was a port in flames.
The East India Company's sailing warships were bombarding the port. Most of the pirate ships parked in the port were destroyed. The spread of the fire could no longer be stopped. Sao Feng was heartbroken, but he could only let these military ships die.
Fortunately, because of Jason's early warning, the pirates were not wiped out in one fell swoop. Forty percent of the ships escaped their bad luck and set sail into the sea.
When disaster strikes, they all fly away. Pirates are synonymous with betrayal, and their loyalty is extremely low. A few of the ships that escape into the sea choose to confront the warships, and most of them escape.
"Sir, please board the Empress and I will cover your departure from the port."
Sao Feng narrowed his eyes, and under the firelight, his whole body exuded a strong evil aura. There were a pair of pirates who escaped, and most of them were against the East India Company. In just one battle, his plundering ships were reduced by half, and his strength was also greatly reduced. His business power was set back ten years, how could he not be angry.
Russell didn't say much. Under Tai Huang's guidance, he boarded the flagship Queen, followed closely by Barbossa and others, who boarded the ship together. In a corner where no one was paying attention, a dark-skinned witch boarded the Queen, with an immortal monkey standing on her shoulders.
Surrounded by a group of men, Sao Feng boarded another Junk ship, which was slightly larger than the Queen and had more artillery. The pirates who could stay in the port waiting for Sao Feng were the most loyal to him. Seven or eight Junk ships formed a sizable fleet and sailed towards the warships.
Five warships lay across the outer sea, blocking the only way out of the island. Several pirate ships confronted them and exchanged fire, forcing them to stop shelling the port and being unable to pursue the fleeing pirate ships.
The arrival of seven or eight Junk ships led by Sao Feng was like a shot in the arm for the pirates. They reorganized their formation with flags and turned the helm to seize the upper hand.
Sao Feng waved his long knife and commanded his men: "Scumbags, the tailwind has an advantage on us. Load the cannonballs and approach them with full sail."
Five warships were reorganized and formed. The two sides were rapidly approaching. The pirates had an advantage in numbers. The number of ships was more than double that of warships. In terms of firepower, the five warships have an absolute advantage.
There are five sailing ships, the flagship is a fourth-level sailing battleship, and the rest are all fifth-level sailing cruisers.
In the Age of Discovery, before steamships were invented, all ships were wooden sailboats. Britain, the maritime overlord, set six levels of warships to facilitate planning.
The first four levels are battleships, and those below this can only serve as frigates and cruisers.
But don’t think that level five and level six are weak. Take the level five sailing cruiser as an example. The warship is about 40 meters long, has more than 32 guns, a displacement of between 600 and 800 tons, and a total crew of 250 people. Its combat effectiveness is not high. vulgar.
In a large sea battle where the third-level sailing battleship is the middle force, the fifth-level sailing cruiser is too weak in firepower and is not qualified to participate in the battle. They are mainly used to attack merchant ships at sea, cruise on oceans, and act as forwards for capital ships.
But even so, it's more than enough to deal with pirates.
For example, Sao Feng's flagship, the Queen, is not a warship and is not even qualified to be classified. In essence, the Empress was actually an armed merchant ship, just like Blackbeard's Queen Anne. It was modified and cannoned, and then embarked on the path of piracy.
The same goes for the Black Pearl, the fastest pirate ship in the Caribbean. It was originally a slave ship, a type of fast merchant ship, and is incomparable with a warship. It does not even have bow and stern guns, so it cannot fire in a straight line when pursuing or being pursued. It can only rely on speed to seize the dominant wind direction.
The two most famous sailing ships in the Pirates of the Caribbean series are Davy Jones's Flying Dutchman and the flagship of Lord Becket, the chairman of the East India Company, Endeavor.
The Flying Dutchman can freely travel between the two worlds. At the end of the day, it is also a submarine, beyond the definition of a ship. In terms of speed alone, only the Black Pearl can match it, so there's not much to say.
The sailing battleship Endeavour, a first-class ship, is qualified to serve as flagship in any scale of naval battle. With three layers of artillery decks, more than 100 super artillery pieces, a capacity of 1,000 people, and a displacement of more than 2,500 tons, it can be called a mobile fortress on the sea in this era.
As for it being sunk by the Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman, it is not a mystery, it can be explained. Behind the truth is a mouse controlling everything.
The rat is rumored to be the overlord of the multiverse, but people are ignorant of its powers and think of it as a funny character in children's animated stories.
Ignorance is the most terrifying thing. It is powerful enough to play Thanos in the palm of his hand, and even killed Iron Man and Black Widow. It is said that it recently had a sudden idea and planned to take Deadpool, Wolverine, and Venom as its younger brothers, and let Magneto clean its toilet. It was really scary!
Closer to home, as the distance gradually approached, Russell could already see the flag flying on the opposite warship.
British East India Company, with white letters on a blue background and three characters written in the 'Y'-shaped space, E (East), I (India), Co (Company).
"Sir, please give me the order!" Taihuang knelt down on one knee. The battle was about to begin. Only Russell was qualified to command the battle on this ship.
Russell frowned. If he was allowed to take the helm and sail the ship, there would be no problem. With the right wings, he could turn the Queen into a Flying Queen. But commanding a naval battle, or a night naval battle, he had never been exposed to this knowledge, and he could not do it on paper.
"Sir, time is running out..."
Russell raised his hand to stop Tai Huang's urging, turned around and scanned the crowd, his eyes lit up: "Captain Barbossa, before the end of the naval battle, the Empress is under your control."
Humility is based on strength, arrogance is based on incompetence!
If you don't understand, you just don't understand. Russell doesn't feel there is anything to be ashamed of. He believes that Barbossa's experience is enough for him. The latter is one of the best captains on the sea.
"Mr. Military Advisor, I'm very honored." Barbossa raised the corner of his mouth, took off his hat and bowed slightly, then walked to the rudder. The elder's temperament changed completely, and he cursed loudly: "You stupid upright apes, you still What are you doing standing around, are the cannons loaded?"
"Oh oh oh----"
Barbossa has an innate captain's temperament, and his intimidation comes into play instantly, raising the morale of the pirates to the top and making them all high-spirited.
The pirates immediately became busy, filling the flames and stuffing solid cannonballs. The whole ship was noisy but orderly.
"Have courage and be ready to fire at any time. Wait until the ship's sides are aligned before firing!"
Pirate ships and warships crisscrossed each other, everyone held their breath, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder. The ships on both sides were very close, and several of the closest ships even fired gunfire. Similarly, the overly nervous gunners ignored the orders and subconsciously ignited the artillery fuses.
The sides of the ship were aligned, and Barbossa roared loudly: "Fire!!"
"Fire all!"
The battle started in an instant, and Barbossa's order spread throughout the deck. At the same time, shouts of gunfire were heard from the opposite warship, and the gunners on both sides lit the fuses almost at the same time.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom————"
White smoke came out of the muzzle of the gun, and the powerful recoil pushed the gun back. Broken wooden boards flew everywhere in the deafening blast. The side of the ship in front of Russell was shattered, and an unlucky pirate was blown away by the cannonball. His blood and flesh were scattered, and his death was extremely tragic.
Russell remained motionless. According to probability, it was impossible for the same position to be hit by artillery shells twice in a row, so he sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, drew out his two-gun Sand Eagle, and fired rapidly at the warship.
Two guns, one shoots bullets with extremely penetrating power at high speed, and the other shoots bullets with destructive power comparable to cannonballs. As the ships on both sides staggered, one man killed four cannons and fifteen soldiers who were firing guns on the deck.
As he continued to fight, Russell suddenly realized that something was wrong. His strong shield was not blocking the gun in front of him.
A drop of cold sweat slipped from his forehead. If you go to the same position, you won't be hit by artillery shells twice in a row. Where did Jason go?
He turned around and looked around, and found Jason standing in the shadows of the deck and cabin.
Russell was furious and walked over in a few steps: "How can you cover me when you are standing so far away? I don't need you to stand behind me today, get out of here!"
Jason: (._.)
"What the hell! You said you're afraid of water and don't dare to get too close!?"
Russell's eyes widened and he tugged on Jason's collar: "Damn, what kind of cuteness are you selling at this time... Bah, what kind of settings are you selling at this time! I'll say it again, settings are for eating!"
Jason: (._.)
"Young BB, you are afraid of the lake water, not the sea water. If you keep talking nonsense, I will kick you into the sea!"
