Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 34: trap
By that time, the deputy commander of the Sharktooth pirate group and the invincible "white shark" Skook of the knight rank are nothing but smoke to him.
I have the ability to go wherever I want to, and build a pirate group that belongs only to me, and I don’t need to look at anyone again.
The most important thing is...the farther away from the already crazy leader...the better!
stroked the black sculpture. He clearly knew that in this shipwreck-like sculpture, there was an evil undead who hated the order and the civilized world, and wanted to launch the most tragic revenge against the human world.
But blindness, self-confidence, or desperation gave him the confidence to completely suppress it after the transfer.
"With it, my one-eyed Becky will definitely become a powerful transcendent, and one day sit on the throne of the Pirate King of the Black Sea!"
Greed makes him desperate, just because the effect of this ocean treasure is too powerful.
Every time you sink a warship in a world-order civilized country, the pirate ship that holds it will get a certain degree of bonus. As long as you keep hunting warships, it is not a dream to become a true legendary warship in the end.
Cooperating with the extraordinary profession of "The Shipwreck Mourners", which lives in symbiosis with ships, Becky is confident that sooner or later he will become the king of the Black Sea.
All of this made him make the decision to openly attack the warship. After a successful one, he must open a large net in this waters to complete another hunt!
......
"Your Excellency, there is news from the observation deck that some junk discarded from the ship was found on the sea. We are chasing in the right direction!" The chief mate on the Warrior also looked excited with his own captain. Debriefing.
"Hahaha, let the sails go forward at full speed, don’t let this little mouse slip under our noses."
"Yes, sir!"
Hey——hey——
Immediately, an energetic shout came from outside, and everyone was cheered up, as if the bounty was already at their fingertips.
Because their captain has been preaching to them that one-eyed Betsy once battled with a warship and wounded the enemy a thousand and lost 800. It is absolutely impossible for us to be our opponent. You can defeat him if you find him, merit and reward every crew member who makes a contribution.
In fact, it is true that the captain of the Warrior can climb to the current position. He is not fooling the crew, but making reasonable judgments based on common sense. He also firmly believes that his judgment will not be wrong. .
The wind direction and wind speed were very good, and the Warrior was able to run up to six knots with full sails. After being separated from the Silver Wing for two hours, he finally "it got his wish" and caught up with the envisioned black sail pirate ship.
The pirate ship was parked on the side close to the Rocky Island. It seemed that no one would be able to spot them at all. When they saw the warrior coming over aggressively, it just started to lift the anchor and sail.
Challenge in a hurry!
The naval officers and soldiers aboard the Warrior saw the pirates running in a panic on the pirate ship, and their morale increased, and they turned directly to the downwind to intercept the pirate ship that was slowly starting to escape.
The muzzle opens, sharpening the knife!
"Hey--! Do you really think you can take us? The idiot fell into the trap without knowing it." The pirate officials hiding in the dark of the pirate ship, at the same time, showed bloodthirsty sneers and looked at the Warrior. It's like looking at pigs and sheep to be slaughtered.
Because all the power of a sailing warship depends on the wind, there is no doubt that the wind direction is important to the warship in naval battles. There is no absolute difference between the advantages and disadvantages, but each has its own advantages in various tactics.
The Warrior attack from the downwind can open all two muzzles, fully exert firepower, and block the opponent's escape route, but it is unexpected that the pirate in the middle will fall into their trap.
put down the monoculars in his hands.
"Gagon, this time the prophecy is good. All the captured navies are yours!" One-eyed Beck is very satisfied with the prophecy made by the wizard of Gagon, and it is rare that he promised him the most before the war started. Trophy.
"Quack, thank you, Master Captain." The brown-skinned old man with a dry face and various bone decorations, opened his wrinkled mouth and quacked, black tongue, black teeth, black mouth, like black Mamba is as terrifying and disgusting.
"Open the muzzle, slow down a bit, and don't scare our guests away."
"Yes, Captain!"
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"...
The fierce artillery battle took the lead. The jumping shells flew horizontally, the ship's plates burst and the masts broke, and from time to time, the unlucky ones on the warships of both sides were directly crushed into meat sauce.
"Ah--"
"My legs..."
No matter who is the hunter or the prey, artillery battles at sea are fierce, which is very fair to the pirates and the navy.
The pirate ship at the upper wind took advantage of its own wind and slowly approached the Warrior, in a desperate posture to force a leap to help.
Warrior wanted to give full play to the performance of the artillery on its battleship, and went on fighting, using the sea version of kite tactics.
"Stay steady for me, the gunner has shot out all the shells we have in stock, and I want to fight warships with firepower, it’s still decades early!"
"Yes, sir!"
Amidst the artillery fire, the two ships gradually sailed out of the original waters, and as long as they passed the rocky arm extending from a rocky island, they would return to the deep water area.
At this time, a strange scene happened to the officers and soldiers of the Warrior.
The sails on the pirate ship gradually retracted, and the ship began to slow down slowly.
"Strange, what are they doing?"
The bearded captain of Warrior put down the monoculars in his hand and couldn't understand the pirate's intentions, but in order to ensure the range of the artillery, he had to slow down.
"The sail is long, lower..."
"Boom!" With a loud noise, the warrior's hull shook suddenly, and the huge force even threw many sailors on the deck into the sea.
"It's not good, it's on the rocks!!"
The cries of the crew made the bearded Captain's face suddenly pale. He patronized the pirate ship to prevent the pirate ship from escaping, but he forgot to observe the sea conditions and made the most unforgivable mistake.
The navy on the ship panicked instantly.
No one knows better than him what the consequences of losing mobility in this chase battle are. The bearded captain closed his eyes in pain: "Continue to fire the cannon to prevent the pirate ship from approaching ~ IndoMTL.com~ Send a distress signal to notify the entire ship. Stand still and wait for Colonel Geer's rescue!"
This is a difficult choice for him, who has always been arrogant and pretentious, but compared with his life, face is not important at this time.
With the shining red flare up into the sky, there are new actions on the pirate ship.
Seven or eight small special canoes were put into the water. There were three pirates on each canoe. One person held a torch and the two were in charge of rowing. There was something covered with canvas in the canoe.
This time, without an order from the Bearded Captain, the experienced officers knew what these **** pirates wanted to do. This tmd is simply an arson ship!
What kind of hatred is this? My warship has been stranded on the reef, so I have to send a death squad to burn the ship? ! ! !
"Hurry up, fire the cannons and sink these arson ships!" The gunner's hysterical order was almost changed, but the gunners' emotions were not much better, and they quickly filled the ammunition and fired wildly into the distance.
But because of the grounding, the Valor as a whole rolled over. The gun muzzles on the sides of the pirate ship were all facing the sky. Shortly after the arson ship was launched, it hit the Grand Canal and sank two ships. I can't attack them anymore.
What's more, during this process, the artillery on the pirate ship did not rest at all. The continuous artillery fire suppressed the officers and soldiers on the Warrior. The lifeboat that was put down was also the first to gather fire, completely cutting off the sailors. Hope of escape.
"Mad, crazy, they dare to stock so much flammable kerosene on board, are they not afraid to turn themselves into fireballs?!"
But at this moment, no amount of vicious curses can save the destiny of the Warrior.
