"Udahan, immediately send more manpower to block the enemies who have jumped to join the gang, and don't let them join the short swordsman! In addition, let me tell you that I don't want the turbaned man alive and let them take over. Don't have any scruples when you come down. No matter it's a trick or a fatal blow, no matter who it is, as long as you can kill that dwarf monkey, you will be considered a great achievement!" From the attic of Haicang Ship, I saw that the scene was about to happen. The out-of-control pirate second master finally issued a kill order at the right time. Before that, he still admired Gu Wenlai's skills, and what he wanted in his mind was to capture Gu Wenlai alive as much as possible instead of killing him on the spot! But due to the current situation, he had to choose to personally order Gu Wenlai to be killed so that he could not join forces with the enemies who broke the formation to attack his own ship!
Yes, the second master, who usually prides himself on being a bit clever, understands that it is not difficult to deal with a short man with a scimitar and a turban as his enemy, but if there are a few more elite players like him on this basis, then Things are really big! Therefore, the second master, who had figured out the stakes at this level, finally lost his last patience and "cruelly" issued the order to kill!
"Hey, master, don't be anxious, I will take down that short winter melon for you right now!" The master's order rang in his ears, and Wu Dahan, who had been directing the archers under his hands to fight, immediately rolled up his arms in a cool manner. Iron bow! Then, with a "creak" sound, his big iron bow, which had the power of two stones, was easily pulled full by this guy! However, in order to capture Gu Wenlai alive, the arrows he used on his iron bow were not the heavy willow-leaf arrows commonly used by his clan, but only the light arrows commonly used by pirates!
However, his sympathy had to come to an abrupt end with the order of the second master!
"Whoosh!" Then, as the sound of the bowstring straightening sounded, the bowstring between the fingers of the pirate archer Wu Dahan suddenly loosened. The next moment, a heavy arrow commonly used by the nomads was thrown by the iron bow with a kind of force. It shot out at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye, and the target was Gu Wenlai, who was holding his shield and raising his sword, struggling to resist the attacks of the pirates and sailors!
"General Manager, be careful!" In front of the slave soldier's long pole hand, Fan Huzi, who was leading his men to advance wildly, suddenly raised his head, and what he saw made his eyes split open! A heavy arrow of a nomad spinning rapidly in the air broke through the barriers in an instant like a meteor chasing the moon, passed through the left shoulder of Gu Wenlai, who was fighting bloody battles on the deck, and then plunged in with unfinished momentum. Into the deck of the sea cabin ship! The next moment, Gu Wenlai, who was suddenly hit by an arrow, staggered back a few steps before he could offset the terrifying force!
"There is a sharp archer among the enemies!" This was the first thought that came to Gu Wenlai's mind after he was hit by an arrow in his left shoulder! Immediately, his rich combat experience allowed him to subconsciously make the most correct response: using a standard "lazy donkey rolling" posture, he quickly moved to the feet of the enemy's sword and shield wielder, and then violently attacked the enemy's lower three lanes with his sword. At the same time, they did not forget to use their bodies to avoid the serial attacks of the pirate archers!
"Tuk-tuk-tuk!" Sure enough, just as Gu Wenlai was moving with a shield and a knife in an extremely inelegant posture, three heavy willow leaf arrows commonly used by the fishing and hunting people were also thrown by the pirate archer, which was difficult to see with the naked eye. The speed he saw broke through the layers of resistance and nailed him to the place where he was before!
"Uh!! What a ruthless archery!" Gu Wenlai looked at the arrow tails that were shaking rapidly on the deck. Cold sweat ran down his back. He couldn't help but feel horrified in his heart. If he had been slower this time, those few willow-leaf heavy arrows would have hit him. The place where I am nailed now is probably not the deck of the Haicang ship, but my own body!
"Don't panic, manager, I'm here, Old Fan!" Just when Gu Wenlai secretly praised the enemy's marksman for his archery skills, and the pirate marksman once again reached out to pick up the arrows in the quiver behind his back, his reinforcements finally reached! The tall and bearded Fan Huzi used his gong-like voice to kill the slave polehands and pirate axemen in front of him, and arrived in front of the pirates' main formation!
"No, our troops are exhausted, and the enemy has the help of a new force. Nothing can be done!" On the attic of the Haicang ship, the second master saw that the enemy's two generals had already killed their own soldiers and gathered together. At the same time, I also know that it is impossible to do anything! Therefore, with the crisp sound of copper chimes, he began to issue retreat orders to his subordinates who were still entangled with the enemy! Of course, before that, he did not forget to strictly order his subordinates to work together to block the enemy's jumping helpers!
"Naotada Kuroki, why don't you come out and help!"
In fact, the reason why the Fierce Shark Pirates dared to fight one against two and challenge the two bird ships of Kanglin Chiyang's fleet was because of four reasons. One of them was that the pirate Haicang's ship was taller and stronger than Chiyang's bird ship; , because the pirate warships are more armed than ordinary bird ships; thirdly, the pirate warships have more combat personnel than merchant ships, and their training level and fighting spirit are stronger than those on merchant ships; fourthly, and the last point is, A pirate warship is more flexible than a merchant ship (a merchant ship is fully loaded with cargo and has a deeper draft. It cannot outrun a lightly loaded pirate warship in the same wind direction. Especially when a merchant ship is not as familiar with the sea area as a pirate. ), you can advance by jumping gangs to fight and seize ships, and retreat by relying on your familiarity with the sea to safely evacuate the battlefield!
However, they didn't choose the right target to rob this time! Those sailors recruited by Kang Lin from other worlds were not the easy ones they expected. Their power made the pirates who wanted to take advantage suffered a lot! Therefore, in order for his pirates to retreat safely and to repel the enemies who successfully jumped to their own warships, the second pirate master did not hesitate to use his secret ace - a top-notch swordsman from Japan's run-down Daimyo family, Kuroki. Naotada!
"Hai, my lord!" Obviously, Kuroki Naotada, a master of Japanese swordsmanship, is not a person who likes to be verbose, so, knowing a little Chinese, he immediately responded to the second master in a deep voice! Then, with an increasingly rapid sound of clogs hitting the ground, the Japanese swordsman wearing a wide-sleeved warrior robe drew out the sword from his waist at an extremely fast speed and slashed at those who were still on his deck. The enemy rushes!
"Japanese swordsman!" Looking at the clog swordsman who was holding the sword in his right hand and slit his companion's throat with a sword, Gu Wenlai and Fan Huzi on the deck couldn't help but quietly exchanged glances. They both saw shock and disbelief in each other's eyes ( Okay, maybe some fear)! However, out of loyalty to their leader and the desire to show their strength, none of them had any intention of retreating. On the contrary, they all chose to face him with their swords without hesitation! So, in an instant, two people and two swords met the Japanese swordsman's fast sword!
"Dang!" Between the lightning and flint, a huge sound of gold and iron was like thunder, ringing in the ears of the warring parties on the deck! The next moment, what appeared in front of everyone was three figures, one white, two black, entangled together! In the meantime, the sharp and deadly sword light continued to bloom, dazzling both sides who were still fighting around the Zhijiao. But it is a pity that in a battle of this level, it seems that little minions like them have no way to get there. I was there to help, so I could only choose to stay aside and watch!
Note: The problem with Haicang being stronger than Bird Ship is that although Haicang Ship and Bird Ship both belong to the Fu Ship type, Haicang is a 400 material ship, while Bird Ship is a 200 material ship, so it has an advantage in size, plus There are more than fifty people on Haicang and eleven large and small artillery pieces available for combat, while there are only thirty or so people on the Bird Boat and eight large and small artillery pieces available for combat. So overall, Haicang has stronger weapons than the Bird Boat. combat effectiveness.
Note 2: Generally, sailors on merchant ships do not participate in battles with pirates, and the only thing cargo owners can rely on are hired guards.
Note 3: The reason why pirates are better armed than ordinary merchant ships is because pirates make a living by plundering and must be well-equipped to eat and kill. Therefore, the weapons equipped on the ships are based on the equipment of the Ming Navy warships. There are only a lot more firearms, and some even have more powerful equipment than the Ming army. For example, the Fu ship that fought against Liao Guangfu's ship even had a short-barreled cannon equipped on Western warships that can fire chain bombs! However, this is not the case for civilian ships and merchant ships for the purpose of transportation and business. What they pursue is to load as much cargo as possible, so they are not equipped with many cannons that squeeze out the loading weight! Therefore, under normal circumstances, a sail warship full of pirates can challenge and crush two merchant ships.
