Great Song Pirate

Chapter 408 Fierce Battle

"My lord general! Look there! A fleet of ships suddenly appeared behind the island!" A lieutenant suddenly shouted to Chen Changhai who was thinking about the problem with his head bowed.

Chen Changhai was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly raised his head and looked in the direction of his finger. When he saw the fleet sailing out from behind Mei Island in the southeast, especially when he saw this sudden boat After the black flag hung high on the mast of the team, the complexion suddenly changed: "Beat the drums! The fleet immediately turns to the southeast and faces the battle! They are the skeleton fleet!"

When he gave the order loudly, all the Annan soldiers under his command had already seen the fleet that suddenly appeared, and they had also seen the black skull flags fluttering in the wind, so the calm fleet suddenly became chaotic. When they got up, the sound of horns, drums, and shouts immediately rang out. They were not prepared for it. Although they had been searching for many days at sea, they did not expect that the enemy they had been looking for for several days would be so sudden. Appearing in front of them, he suddenly panicked.

The appearance of the Fubo army fleet is very shocking to these Annan people. These warships headed by Kai Kai are as tall as buildings. Compared with these Annan people's ships, they are undoubtedly like giants. Like no bully, the uniformly painted black hull is even more domineering and majestic in the sun. The fleet that comes downwind rides the wind and waves on the sea, and the towering masts and sails are integrated into one piece, giving people a sense of majesty. The general feeling of covering the sky and blocking out the sun.

Although these Annan soldiers who were on the expedition had already heard all kinds of rumors about this fleet, when they really appeared in front of them, they couldn't help but let them all take a breath, and the commanders of the ships immediately shouted: "Enemy attack! Get ready!"

Those Annan soldiers who understood it finally started to move and started to run on the ship one after another. The sailors also started to adjust the sail and rudder, but they immediately discovered the problem.

"My lord general! We seem to be in ambush. The situation is not good for us now. The skeleton fleet has already ambushed here. Now they have the upper hand. We are at a disadvantage in this situation!" A person who is familiar with water warfare The subordinate whispered to Chen Changhai.

Why is Chen Changhai not aware of the situation in front of him?He only felt bitterness in his mouth. Originally, he planned to find his opponent to have a fair confrontation at sea, but he didn't expect that the skeleton fleet that suddenly appeared in front of him broke all his plans. He didn't Thinking that the skeleton fleet would lie in ambush here in advance and wait for their appearance, is there something wrong with them?Could it be that someone leaked their whereabouts in advance and made these damn pirates prepare in advance?

After this thought flashed in his mind, he immediately threw it into the sea. Now is not the time to think about it. He has to make a choice to face the sudden change. After the speed of the skeleton fleet rushing towards them, he already understood that it was too late to retreat now, and all he could do was fight to the death.

"What are you panicking about? We came out to find these damned skeleton army for a decisive battle. No matter what, we can't retreat anymore. Send an order to beat the drums, and we will meet this damned skeleton army here. Send me an order. Anyone Anyone who dares to run away will be punished without mercy! Go up to me, the time has come to serve the king! Kill!" Chen Changhai suddenly pulled out the sword from his waist, held it high in the air, and roared loudly,

"Kill..." Immediately there was a shout of killing on his boat, and gradually the shout of killing spread throughout the fleet of the Annan people, and the sound of war drums spread out of their fleet.

Everyone knows that the time has come for the confrontation between the two armies.

"Brothers of the order! This battle will be a decisive battle between us and the Annan people. As long as we defeat their fleet, we will be free to come and go in the Annan sea from now on! When the two armies meet, the brave one wins! Kill me!" Xu Yi was also standing on the ship tower at this time, and shouted vigorously, with a feeling of looking down on the world.

Everyone yelled together with him. Under the urging of the sea wind, the sails of the fleet were full of sea wind, and they moved towards the Annan fleet on the opposite side. The distance between the two fleets was getting closer and closer. Gradually, they began to get close to the range of the artillery and ballista, and even without binoculars, they could already see the faces of the sailors on the opposing ship clearly.

Looking at these tall ships pressing heavily towards their own fleet, and because of the headwind, their actions are much slower than the skeleton fleet rushing over, so the soldiers in Annan's fleet have just been mobilized The morale that got up suddenly began to plummet. They had never fought against such a tall ship, let alone being attacked by surprise under such a headwind. So involuntarily began to tremble slightly.

Looking at the densely packed Annan warships in front of him, even a veteran of water warfare like Zheng Guang has never encountered such a battle formation, let alone other Fubo army members, but at this time they have already forgotten Frightened, all of them stood proudly on the boat like a rainbow, with a murderous look, ready for all battles.

When the large-scale fleet met, many tactics had lost their effect. After Xu Yi discussed with Sun Hai, who is familiar with water warfare, he ordered: "Order the ships not to entangle with the Annan warship. Our ships have the upper hand." , Rely on the strength of the ships to defeat them! Don't love to fight each ship, just disperse them and wipe them out separately! Thunder cannons and ballistas are fired at will! Hit me hard!"

The captains of each ship immediately conveyed the received instructions to the men on board. Looking at the densely packed Annan ships in front of them, all the men in the Fubo army could not help showing a hint of ferocious smiles. Ready for anything.

"Hit me hard!" After receiving Xu Yi's order to shoot freely, the captains of each ship yelled loudly at the gunners on board, so the ballistas pulled down the guns with all their strength. The artillerymen immediately pressed the torches on the bronze cannon's fire door.

The Fubo Army ships headed by the Pioneer immediately sprayed out a burst of flames, and the sound of the rumbling guns resounded over the sea like rolling thunder. Pulling the smoke, it drew low and extended arcs in the air, and smashed heavily into the fleet of Annan people who were densely covered in the sea. Immediately, a burst of flames and thick smoke rose in these fleets. The team immediately became confused, and many Annan people were immediately sent to hell by the first round of blows, and the screams rang out.

Regarding this sudden blow like a storm, the Annan people finally realized that the rumors they had heard before were not false. The rumor that the skeleton army fleet could control the sky thunder was not groundless. The fantasy was also completely shattered, they finally experienced Thor's wrath, and completely panicked.

Just after a round of firing, the Fubo army immediately began to reload nervously. Before their ships came into contact with the opponent, they carried out another round of strikes. After only two rounds of shelling, Annan's fleet had already It fell into chaos at first, and then under the fast speed of the Fubo army fleet, the two fleets finally collided heavily.

Now all the advantages of the Fubo army fleet were immediately displayed. This is an unfair duel. The Fubo army has firmly grasped the advantage from the beginning. Whether it is speed or weight, they are better than these Annan's warship was much stronger. The huge Fubo Army's ships relied on the high-speed and thunder-like impact force, and slammed into these Annan ships lying in front of them. The panicked Annan ships were beaten by them. After hitting hard, the Annan soldiers above were immediately thrown out by the huge shock, and fell heavily on the boat or directly fell into the sea water, even the soldiers on the big boat of the Fubo Army were also shocked. Some of his feet were not stable, and he swayed here and there.

As the first ship to rush into the enemy's line, the Pioneer was of course the first to bear the brunt, and it slammed into an Annan warship head-on. As sharp as an axe, the poor Annan ship was immediately split into two by the violent collision, and it was divided into two parts and overturned in the sea water. The group was trapped in the water and struggled desperately.

After Xu Yi swayed for a while, he was supported by Li Bo, and he regained his footing. He lowered his head and saw the tragic image of the Annan ship that was hit, and laughed loudly: "Brothers, hold on! Don't stop the ballista! Keep firing! Adjust the course and keep hitting me! Haha!"

The Pioneer that rushed into Annan's fleet was like a fire-breathing beast, and immediately started another round of firing. The solid iron bullets flew out and hit the surrounding Annan ships heavily, beating them to pieces. It was fragments flying around, and they all ran away in panic. The kerosene bombs even ignited the ships of the Annan people, and raging flames burst out, burning the Annan soldiers on top to cry for their parents. After a violent shock, an unlucky Annan warship disintegrated into pieces under its impact again.

Looking at the flotilla that had been in contact with the periphery, Chen Changhai stared dumbfounded at the ships of the fire-breathing skeleton army. He finally understood why so many people rumored that the skeleton fleet could control the sky thunder. The thunderbolt wouldn't be so huge, the ships of the Skeleton Army rushed into his fleet like a tiger into a flock of sheep, and the fleet that was still in some shape immediately became chaotic, looking at himself in a panic Chen Changhai was a little dumbfounded, the arrogance he had in front of the king suddenly turned into chilling.

"My lord general! Let's avoid the skeleton army for a while! If this goes on, we will suffer a lot!" A lieutenant advised Chen Changhai looking at the chaotic scene ahead in panic.

After hearing the words of the lieutenant general, Chen Changhai finally recovered from the shock, and roared angrily: "Fart! Now that we retreat, wouldn't that mean putting us to death? Thanks to you being the lieutenant general of the navy, this matter Absolutely no retreat, otherwise we will have no chance of escape under the cover of the enemy army. Give me a drumming order, and the ships must not panic! Immediately use rockets to attack the opponent's ships. Now if anyone dares to mention retreat to me, immediately No mercy!"

Immediately there was a burst of drumming on his boat, and along with the drumming, Annan's soldiers gradually woke up from the initial shock and panic. Now that they have reached this point, I'm afraid it's useless, Annan's generals are not short of brave men, so some daring soldiers began to draw their bows and ignited rockets, violently launching towards the oncoming skeleton army ships.

And the archers on the ships of the Fubo Army immediately held their bows and crossbows to fight back. Immediately, the sky above the sea was filled with rockets passing by. , their ships are much lower than the ships of the Fubo Army, and they can only shoot from the back against the archers of the Fubo Army, while the ships of the Fubo Army are equipped with guard plates on both sides, which can effectively defend against them The ship is equipped with several pressurized water spray guns. Under the operation of the sailors, jets of water are continuously sprayed out to extinguish the rockets that landed on the ship one by one to prevent the fire from spreading. The overall loss suffered very small.

And there is no such high-end goods on the Annan people's ships. After the rockets fell, their sails were quickly ignited. They can only use wooden barrels to extract seawater and pour it on the sails, trying to extinguish these flames, but manpower is limited after all, and they can't splash water on the high sails anyway, so many ships hit by arrows The sails of the ship began to burn, and soon crackled and burned into a huge torch. The Annan soldiers on the ship suddenly screamed again, and ran around on the ship like a group of headless flies. When he got up, arrows like migrating locusts fell, nailing many Annan soldiers to death on the boat, and the whole sea seemed to boil at this moment.

The ships of the Fubo army pierced into the thick Annan fleet like sharp knives. Relying on their huge hull, they struggled to collide in the Annan fleet. Suddenly, they were pushed into the water by their huge hulls, and then they couldn't bear the heavy pressure, they broke and capsized and sank into the sea one after another, leaving only a piece of struggling Annan soldiers and some broken ship planks on the sea surface.
