Salmon, main island, northern waters.
"Catch up with the suspicious ship, and then fire cannons to make it stop for inspection. If it doesn't comply, let me sink it..."
On the vast sea in the north of Salmon Island, two large and small ships are constantly chasing each other! At this time, half an hour had passed since the two sides discovered each other's existence, but the distance between the two sides was still stubbornly maintained at more than a thousand steps!
And this, not surprisingly, angered the leading officer on the Ming Navy patrol ship! So after a burst of exciting conch sound, the Ming Navy patrol ship loaded with elite battalions began to speed up suddenly. The slightly pointed bow continued to chop the waves and plow the blue water under the strong power provided by the sail! So with the help of the sailors, the distance of a thousand steps was quickly shortened to a dangerous three to five hundred steps!
Frankly speaking, Chiyang's six-foot-long centipede boat is just an offshore galley after all, and its main power is manual rowing. Therefore, it is not easy to survive in this large bathtub in the Salmon Inland Sea until now! But Wu Fang, the commander of the Chiyang privateer fleet, obviously doesn't think so. Not only does he have to deal with the government's naval patrol ships for a longer time, but he also has to seize the opportunity to tear off a piece of fat from the opponent's body, including the bones. ! As the saying goes, "A wolf travels a thousand miles to eat meat, and a dog travels a thousand miles to eat shit." This guy was originally a pirate who was not afraid of anything, but now he has become even more lawless with the leader Kang Lin and Kang Da. Faced with the red-coated cannon, the elite The Ming Dynasty Navy's first thought was not how to escape and retreat, but to rush forward and take advantage. He didn't even think about it, so he relied on the large Fo Lang machine equipped on his ship, Ye Gongshen Gun and Dizi Gun. , can you break through the thick planks of the enemy ship? Maybe if you stay where you are and let them bombard you, it will be difficult to break through the defense for a while. You also want to tear off a piece of fat from the enemy's body, including the bones and bones. Don't get there. At that time, if the tiger was not the anti-dog, it would be sent directly to the bottom of the sea to meet the Sea Dragon King...
Without further ado, let’s turn our attention back to the two sailboats chasing each other! As Chiyang's six-foot centipede boat kept turning, and from time to time extra manpower was sent to rock the big oar to add extra power to the ship, the bow of the six-foot centipede boat unknowingly began to compete with the rapidly advancing Ming army. The naval warships are level! The next moment, as Wu Fang's roar sounded, the Centipede ship's bow artillery platform's two large Folang guns and two Ye Gongshen guns fired at the Ming Navy patrol ship 300 steps away. It sprayed out thick smoke and long gun flames!
"No, the planks of the enemy's patrol ship are too thick, and our cannons can't hit them. We still have to play chase with them, otherwise we will be targeted by their cannons, and we will be doomed! You know, their ships can be Equipped with red cannons, the kind with long barrels, a broken ship like ours will leak and sink to the bottom of the sea after a few rounds..."
Two one-pound lead bullets, two six-pound iron bullets, a total of four shells. Only one of them hit the enemy ship by chance, but it was easily bounced off by the thick plank of the enemy ship, just like a flying mosquito. Got a rhinoceros with rough skin and thick flesh! Feng Shuangxi, the bosun of the Centipede boat, looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but be horrified. This was just a Chinese sailing ship known as a Junk boat. It had such a strong and thick ship. If it were a European Karak boat, it would be even more powerful. It's Galen's ship that's coming. Aren't the artillery equipped on his ship not even qualified to scratch someone's itch? Fortunately, the opponent did not fight back because of the wrong angle at this time. Otherwise, the panicked Centipede Boat would definitely have suffered a round of solid shells due to poor command! Therefore, the sailors on the Centipede ship soon received new instructions to speed up the ship and break away from the enemy! Since it is impossible to break through the defense, the Wu side is going to take advantage of the flexibility and short-term explosive power of its own ships to play a cat-and-mouse game with the opponent!
"Sir, the enemy's warship is catching up, what should we do next?" Putting aside the evenly matched centipede ship, it was hard to tell the winner for a while. , Not to mention the Ming Navy’s naval patrols, Chiyang’s two ships also encountered difficult problems at this time! After a persistent pursuit, the slightly smaller naval patrol boat finally caught up with the two former ships, which relied solely on large oars for power, relying on its excellent sail rigging and the full cooperation of the sailors! Next, those who carried the gunpowder carried the gunpowder, those who loaded the cannonballs loaded the cannonballs, and those who were responsible for the sighting were responsible for the sighting. The entire naval patrol ship began orderly preparations for war under the command of the leading officer! When the indigenous sailors and Japanese pirate sailors on the Guan ship saw how powerful the enemy was, they immediately lost their minds. So they quickly turned their attention to Officer Chiyang who was guarding the ship, hoping to hear something from the latter. Suggestions that help solve real problems.
"みんな里れて行って, enemy's 戦阘屋 は 1 しかなくて, private たち 2 のships を at the same time に Chase す る こ と は で き ま せ ん. ま た, urgent いで Ship に Makes わないものを海に出げて、My ship’s heavy りを軽くします.この时になったら、All さんはお金を cherish しんではいけません. liver心な时は命を生ることが大刀です. I want to use it to chase the enemy ship. , たとえhis no life, がくても, もう一のshipは rescue, に来てはいけない! さて, private meaning, みんな分かりましたかわかったらすぐにOperationしましょう......(Everyone separates, the enemy battles the ship There is one ship that cannot pursue both of our ships at the same time. In addition, quickly throw the unused things on the ship into the sea to reduce the weight of the ship. It is now time, so don’t give up your good fortune. The key is It is still important to save your life at all times! In short, if someone's ship is overtaken by an enemy ship because of its heavy cargo, his life will only be considered bad, and the other ship must not remember to come to the rescue! Okay, everyone understands what I mean Do you understand? If you understand, take action quickly)..."
Facing the aggressive Ming Navy patrols, as well as the panicked indigenous sailors and Japanese pirate sailors, although Officer Chiyang was also panicking, the experience gained from years of fighting allowed them to quickly calm down! In order to disrupt the pursuit of the enemy ship, they immediately commanded the two Guan ships to break out separately, and threw many things that were temporarily unused on the ship, as well as various seizures on Salmon Island, into the sea! After all, the two Guan ships were already moving slowly. If they were unable to increase their speed due to their heavy loads, they would most likely be overtaken, sunk, or captured by enemy ships! At that time, the things on the ship or the seizures will still not be saved. Instead of doing this, it is better to be a bachelor and throw them into the sea. At least, in this way, the chances of our two ships escaping from pursuit will be greater!
"はい, そうします. それらの安全有物はprivateたちが使えなくても、determine してあのばか野郎を安くしません. おばあちゃんの、Chasing 撃はprivate たちがこんなにきつく chase いかけています．private たちがPIのwifeをSeize the ったのか, それとも比の家のancestor’s tomb のdig ったのか, 全く言叶はありません (Okay, let’s do it like this, even if we can’t use those seizures, it won’t be cheap for those bastards, grandma, chase We chased him so closely, did we snatch his wife or dig up his family's ancestral graves, it is simply unreasonable)?"
After receiving the order from the temporary commander, the two ships immediately separated and broke out in different directions! And this trick was indeed effective. When the smaller naval patrol boat saw that the two Japanese ships in front suddenly split into two groups, it instantly became paralyzed. It couldn't go left or right! In the end, the officer leading the team threw in the copper plate in his hand, and then decided to pursue the target, which was the slightly larger Guanzhou ship! As the saying goes, "catch the big and release the small", as long as the big ship is successfully sunk or captured, even if the small ship escapes, it will be harmless!
"Early morning, early morning, early morning things, sea of things, sea of things, things to eat, things to eat, things to be taken, iron tools to be collected, iron tools to be collected, copperware, things to be done, enemies to chase, enemies to chase, enemies to chase, and private things to be collected.たちは Boat だけでなく、人も ます．そうです． できるだけEarlyく抜け出すために、みんなはprivateのorderを文いて、hurry upげなさい (hurry up, hurry up , quickly throw things into the sea, not only food, cloth, but also captured iron tools , and throw away the bronze weapons. If the enemy catches up, not only our boats, but also our people will have to be captured by them. Therefore, in order to get rid of their pursuit as soon as possible, everyone listen to my order and throw them away)!"
Seeing that the Ming Navy patrol ship abandoned the small boat and pursued his own ship, Officer Chiyang on the large ship took the lead to pick up a gilt bronze Buddha statue and then threw it into the sea. ! This is not the time to give up good money. As long as you can successfully escape the pursuit of the enemy ship, let alone some worthless bottles and cans, even if you are a grandma, I will still have to throw away what should be thrown away!
"Fire, fire, stop the crazy moves of those bastards. That's all money. Don't let them throw it into the sea again. The capital has not paid wages for half a year. They still want to throw it into the sea. It's simply ridiculous. What a waste of natural resources! Damn it, I told you not to throw it away again. I will remind you later that the leader on the other side’s boat planted lotus flowers..."
Grain, cloth, spirits, wooden barrels, hemp ropes, ironware, copperware, and even silverware were all thrown into the sea by the plagued animals. The leading officers on the Ming Dynasty naval patrol boat couldn't help but be shocked and shocked. Angry, I haven't received salary for more than half a year. I was just thinking about going outside to get some wild food, but unexpectedly the first target I met was a bastard with a head as tough as iron. He refused to let himself earn benefits. , and actually threw it directly into the sea to feed the Dragon King! It seems that after defeating them later, we have to "entertain" them well, so that neither of them can see the reality clearly and do stupid things!
