Everyone knows that this is not the time to be pretentious. If there is any hesitation like this, the whole army will be annihilated here! So they nodded slowly and agreed. Seeing their appearance, the sailors also knew that it was time to fight for their lives. For a while, the entire fleet was filled with a tragic atmosphere!
Just when Liu Guangting was about to say a few more words, he suddenly noticed a flash of fire on the sea in the distance, and then the flashes of light connected into a film! Then there was the dull sound of cannons! Everyone was shocked, and someone shouted loudly: "These gangsters have taken action in advance and are ready to fight back!"
But in the midst of the chaos, Liu Guangting discovered one thing: the place where the fire flashed was outside the pirate circle, and it was not far away!
Just before he could figure it out, a rain of cannonballs had already hit the densely packed pirate ship! Especially these cannonballs were mixed with a large amount of shotshells, knocking down a large number of pirates on the deck! The most terrifying thing is that these cannonballs were fired from behind the pirates. There is neither a raised side nor a bulletproof insert at the stern, so whether it is a solid cannonball or a shotshell, there is no obstacle when it sweeps across the deck. , the power is brought into full play! The pirates on the north side were immediately beaten into chaos!
But as the saying goes, blessings never come in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone! Just after the pirates on the north side were bombarded, artillery fire came from the east and west sides! And the artillery fired at a very close range almost killed all the pirates on the back deck!
Then a large number of lamps and torches were lit in the darkness not far away, reflecting the flags of the incoming attackers. They were actually the army! The frontmost battleship in the north hangs a particularly eye-catching general's flag, which reads Ming Dynasty Navy, Li!
When Liu Guangting and others saw this scene, they were stunned at first, and then burst into ecstasy! Liu Yi jumped up and shouted loudly: "The reinforcements are coming! The reinforcements are coming!"
Liu Guangting was also overjoyed, but he reacted quickly and immediately shouted: "Go to each ship to report the news, that is to say, the officers and soldiers are on our side, don't let the brothers and the officers and soldiers start a fight! "
Everyone immediately realized that they knew who was behind them, but most of the sailors didn't know Liu Haojia's identity. They thought that they were just looking for a backer like other pirates, but the financial backer behind them was a little bigger and had a little more money!
Now that the officers and soldiers are charging towards them, these people might get hot-headed and rush out together with Li Dazui and the others, or they might simply join up with them to resist the officers and soldiers. That would be a big trouble!
Everyone stood up and was about to run away, but Liu Guangting grabbed him and ordered: "Liu Ming, go and inform everyone! Liu Ju, go to the perimeter immediately and ignite all the ships that are about to self-destruct, but don't ignite the gunpowder." Light up the ship building, and use the dark lamp to illuminate the officers and soldiers! Liu Yi and you guys order other ships to fight out in all directions, stick to Li Dazui and the others firmly, don't let them escape!"
Everyone became even more excited when they heard Liu Guangting's series of orders being delivered clearly and forcefully, and each went to convey the orders. At this time, the pirates on the three sides of the northeast and west were in chaos, and were defeated by the intensive artillery attack! Only the pirates on the south side did not receive any orders, neither running nor fighting, they just hovered in place!
Originally, these pirates were a coalition of five pirates. They usually commanded battles separately and did not get together, so they could not form a clear and effective command. Now they were raided by the official army, making the scene even more chaotic! Even now, they still don’t know how the Ming Navy could reach less than a mile behind their house?
After being hit, the five of them had different reactions! The first thought of the puffer fish and the eunuch was to turn around and run away, but now that their hands have been scattered, it is difficult to gather them together!
As for Lang Lifei and Tracker, they also wanted to run away, but they still wanted to join up with Li Dazui. But their fleet is due north, right at the bottom of the encirclement! Seeing that he couldn't escape for a while, he began to gather his fleet to prepare for a breakout!
As for Li Dazui, he was thinking more at this time! He actually wanted to ask Liu Guangting to run with him! This is not because he is stupid, but because the fleets of him and Liu Guangting have become intertwined! If Liu Guangting didn't give way, they wouldn't be able to run away at all!
And if under normal circumstances, Li Dazui thought
Maybe the method will come true! Because in the eyes of the pirates, it is their own business to fight against them. If they encounter an army, if they can eat it, they will eat it together, and if they cannot eat it, they will run away together! There is no way that when the army is encircling and suppressing them, they can still kill each other!
But what he never expected was that the Yankee they were talking about was half an official! This made him suffer a big loss!
Just when the pirates were in chaos, Liu Guangting's men were rejoicing but also fearful! They all encouraged the people above to seize the opportunity and escape in the chaos! In their opinion, they should take the opportunity to gather together to break through the pirate siege and return to Ryukyu to get down to business!
Just when they had already turned the ship's bow to the south, an order came down from above, asking them to cooperate with the official army to kill the pirates!
This order made them feel that the war in front of them seemed not so real! Because the order made it very clear that the officers and soldiers were sent by the boss to rescue them, so they must cooperate with the officers and soldiers to entangle Li Dazui and the others and kill them in one fell swoop!
The sailors were surprised when they heard the news! Then there is elation and joy! In their view, it is perfectly normal for pirates to collude with people on the shore! But under normal circumstances, the only ones they can contact are large and small families!
It's not that naval officers cannot be bribed, but they can only bribe certain individuals! At most, before the army encircles and suppresses them, they can get some wind in advance and send a message! But I have never heard of the navy sending people to rescue them!
On weekdays, they often heard Liu Guangting and others talk about how their boss was doing. They were used to seeing how lavish their boss was in spending money, and they were already shocked! Now that he could call in the army and the army for rescue, this suddenly made them feel that his boss was a little more mysterious! Now they have begun to guess which person in the imperial court the owner is?
However, speculation did not prevent them from taking action. The sailors, who were so excited that they were crazy, mustered up their fighting spirit again, shouted and attacked in all directions! The first to move were the damaged ships on the periphery that were preparing to self-destruct. After receiving the order, the dead soldiers on these ships were all ecstatic! Although it is said that he was injured and acted as a dead soldier, it is better not to die!
