At this time, Li Dazui fell into deep thought. To be honest, Li Dazui was really not sure whether the two of them would turn around and leave? What he was more worried about was, would these two people turn around and cooperate with Liu Guangting to eat them? This kind of heartless betrayal is not uncommon among pirates!
And if it weren't for the two puffer fish, he wouldn't have eaten me Liu Guangting. Even after defeating Liu Guangting, he would not have the strength to seize the settlement of Da Liuqiu. But then the greed in his heart overwhelmed everything and made him make a decision! Anyway, a lot of people will die if we take down the settlement, so let's use up the manpower of Pufferfish and the others first, and then fight together after they succeed!
Thinking of this, Li Dazui nodded and said: "Okay, it's settled! After eating the Yankee fleet and breaking through the gathering place of Big Yoyo, all the population and industry will be divided into six parts. I will take two parts, and each of you will take one." One portion!"
Pufferfish was still bargaining, but Li Dazui raised his hand to stop him. At the same time, he quietly made an obscure gesture with his left hand and said: "Pufferfish, you are already here today, even if you show your face in the eyes of the Yankees! Do you think this rumor can be hidden? Will he let you go when the time comes? I'm afraid he will target you when he goes back!"
The puffer fish thought for a while, then looked at each other and decided: "Deal!"
Li Dazui put down his hand and said: "Well, in that case, let's make an agreement! When he gets closer and can't escape, we will suddenly rush out and give him a hard blow! Let's go back to the ship now. Get ready!"
Lang Lifei said loudly: "Since you have agreed, don't do anything that is not enough! We may have to live together in the future, so as not to look ugly when we meet in the future!"
Both puffer fish smiled and said nothing, turned around and left! After all, trust is so rare among pirates! After the pufferfish and the others left, the tracker whispered: "Brother Li, just now you gave us a sign to keep us silent. What did you mean?"
Li Dazui patted his thigh and said, "What else could it mean?" Brothers, remember, let’s not rush in front when fighting the Yankees this time, let the pufferfish and the others die more! After we capture the gathering place, we will annex them and then take out their lair! "
Lang Lifei said with a ferocious smile: "I guessed it must be this way! Then I will chop the puffer fish to death with my own hands and hang his head on the mast!"
Li Dazui laughed and said, "Don't worry, my brother will help you when the time comes!"
Then the three people briefly discussed and dispersed back to their respective fleets. But out of earshot of them, the puffer fish and the eunuch also reached an agreement that was almost the same as theirs! It seems that there is no telling who will win this battle! 「
Several people waited for a long time, and finally waited until the lookout reported that the opponent's fleet was approaching, and then they fought out from behind the reef! Unsurprisingly, they saw Liu Guangting's fleet slowly turning around!
The five people and their men immediately chased away with shouts, especially Li Dazui who shouted loudly and enthusiastically: "Young men, catch up!" "
In fact, chasing at sea is a very boring thing! Since both sides have similar ship models and similar boat handling skills, it will take a long time to catch up with the opponent on the endless sea! So the chase continued until the afternoon!
After approaching a certain distance, Li Dazui ordered the cannon on his bow to fire a shot at our fleet in front! Watching the splash of the cannonballs falling into the sea, Li Dazui made an estimate in his mind: It would take less than half an hour to catch up with the fleet in front!
Li Dazui is very confident about this! This confidence not only comes from his sailing experience, but also because he has made a lot of preparations for this battle!
They carried nothing extra on board except water, water and cannonballs. And Liu Guangting also wanted to attack the island where pirates were entrenched, so he had to bring some heavier siege equipment, which would naturally not make him faster!
Sure enough, after chasing for a quarter of an hour and after Li Dazui ordered another test firing, Liu Guangting knew that he might not be able to escape. Moreover, they saw two bare islands not far away and knew that they had reached the preset battlefield, so He simply commanded the fleet to turn around, dividing all the ships into two teams, forming two concentric circles, one large and one small, forming a circular formation hovering on the sea.
.
Li Dazui was overjoyed when he saw this! It turned out that he was worried about the other party escaping under the cover of night, but he threw it out of the window! He immediately said to the people around him: "Inform a few other people and surround them all to attack from all sides! We must eat them before nightfall!"
The five teams immediately dispersed, and the original group formation was no longer there. Li Dazui, who was in the middle, ordered the fleet to reduce its speed and wait for the other four fleet teams to surround each other.
Less than a moment later, five fleets surrounded Liu Guangting and the others! But the strange thing is that no one is willing to step forward and fire the first shot! These pirates with their own evil intentions all want to let others take the chestnuts out of the fire for them, for fear of wasting their own strength! This actually made the entire sea calm down!
Li Dazui's face was green and white. After thinking for a moment, he called a pirate and said: "Go and inform a few of them. Don't count on anyone else. I will take action soon, and all of them will have to do it together! Otherwise, we will fight." After the battle is over, there will be an explanation when the spoils of war are distributed!"
Soon Li Dazui received news from the other four fleets, indicating that they were ready. So Li Dazui stood on the bow of the boat and shouted loudly: "Brothers, come on! Seize the next boat and get ten taels of silver per person!"
Following his order, the surrounding ships slowly accelerated towards each other. At the same time, the other four fleets saw this and moved forward. The pirates stood on the boat, shouting and cheering themselves up!
Not long after they moved forward, they suddenly saw a flash of fire in the opposite fleet that had been swimming slowly, and then a puff of white smoke rose! All the pirates immediately knew that the other party had fired first!
Sure enough, as the opponent fired a cannon, the artillery on other ships also roared one after another! The pirates didn't care at first, but they soon realized something was wrong! Because the smoke and fire rising from the opposite fleet were too dense!
Normally, Chinese sailing ships do not have a gun deck, so they generally install the guns on the top deck. In addition, pirates are generally very poor and cannot equip a few artillery pieces! Even on some well-established pirate ships, at most they only have one cannon at the bow and stern.
