Chapter 67 Fighting Pirates Again

Harfleur's coastal defense is not as strong as Honfleur's. There is only a shallow beach that is naturally formed along the sea. The port is also built on this site, and there is no piled-up guardrail wall as an additional protection.

"Use the lord's skill - battlefield insight." Li Peijun took this opportunity to test his skills by the way.

"The skill is successfully used. During the duration of the battlefield insight, the owner can ignore the terrain and weather, observe the enemy's situation from a long distance, and get corresponding data."

"It seems to be a good skill." Li Peijun took advantage of the short time limit to see the pirate ship hidden on the sea from a distance through the mist.

"The number of enemy troops is 15 light sails and 80 personnel."

It's just some basic data, but it's also crucial. The current effect can only reach this level. Once the effect expires, the field of vision will instantly narrow to a natural perspective.

The scale was much smaller than the last time we met in Honfleur, but the number of people was 80, which was not a small number.

The shadow of the pirate ship has not yet appeared, but Li Peijun has already started to act in advance. Some sentries are stationed along the coast. At this time, they are still on duty at the front line as usual. danger.

"Paissant, you are here again."

Li Peijun ran over thinking he was calling for his men to prepare to meet the enemy, but unexpectedly found a familiar face.

"Good morning, Lord Lord. Oh, I can't help it. It's my turn to be on duty today. The sea breeze smells pretty good and refreshing." Posang's face was filled with sunshine, and he greeted warmly.

"The pirates are coming soon. Go quickly and gather the city defense army organized by your citizens, and send other people to rule the two families of Auster and Kaqi." Li Peijun hurriedly urged Passan to leave as soon as possible.

"Huh? The pirates are coming? But I can't see anything here."

Possant glanced at the vast white sea, except for the water vapor like snowflakes, he didn't even see the shadow of a ship.

"Hurry up, there is no time to explain, you go and call someone, I order you as the lord, hurry up." Li Peijun was so anxious that he directly took out the lord's identity to order.

Passant immediately saluted, "Of course, Lord Lord." Then he ran away in a decent manner.

The Self-Defense Forces were soon mobilized by armed forces, and they laid out uniformly on the coastline, pretending to be ready for battle. Except for the occasional silhouettes of seagulls passing by at low altitude, there was no sign of ships on the sea surface.

"My lord, are you sure there are pirates coming? If this stance fails, the people will have a lot of opinions." Possant looked at the empty sea, very puzzled.

"Where do pirates usually log in from before? Show me." Li Peijun didn't care so much, and then continued his deployment.

Possant pointed to a direction on the left, "Here, it's probably the beach. Because the waves are steady, the resistance is not so great when evacuating, and the isobaths are densely packed there, so the draft is good and it is convenient to park."

Li Peijun grinned, "Okay, you prepare a boat for me, it's inconspicuous, close to that piece of coast, but it should be a little far away."

"My lord, what are you doing?"

"You don't have to ask so many questions, just do what you want." Li Peijun smiled confidently.

The shadows of the ships gradually emerged from the other side of the sea horizon. The first thing that appeared was the slender mast, then the sails swaying in the wind, and finally the entire fleet seemed to be covered by a curtain, a frightening black shadow of death Sail on the sea.

"It has appeared." Possant shouted, and exclaimed again, "This lord is really amazing, he can be found from such a distance."

The self-defense force, which is ready for everything, is already fully armed and standing on the coastline, waiting for the pirates to enter their attack range.

"The lord has an order, don't act rashly for the time being, let's fight again after you put it in, everyone hides, and only a few sentries are left to observe the situation."

Possang implemented the strategic policy formulated by Li Peijun before he left, with the purpose of cracking down on pirates with the greatest force.

At sea, the Dexter
"There are still about 10 minutes to go ashore, right?" Dex looked at the map along the coast and made a rough gesture.

The sailor beside him nodded, and added: "The wind is tailwind now, and it is expected to be 2-3 minutes faster."

Dexter was very happy, but also a little worried, "If the wind is down, it will be against the wind when you run."

To be on the safe side, Dexter went out of the cabin and stood on the deck looking at the other side of the coast as usual. Unlike ordinary people, Dexter's eyesight was surprisingly good, and he was even called a sea hawk.

"It seems to be the same as before, this lord really doesn't care, he just knows how to confide his feelings to God, and his people don't know it in dire straits, hahaha."

Dix didn't know that the lord of Harfleur had been replaced by Li Peijun before that, and Dix, who was stunned at the moment, was still thinking about how to get the spoils back.

"Mist, the lord, is really incompetent. If you don't want your people, I'll help you collect taxes, hahaha." Dix couldn't help laughing jokingly.

"The whole army set sail, landed at the old place, and rushed all the way along the street. I still remember the location of that guy's manor. Copy it." Dex ordered his men, and made another offensive gesture.

After a slight sway, the boat quickly stopped at the shoal. This is a road that Dexter is very familiar with. Every time he loots, he will choose this road to land. Compared with Honfleur, which is protected by a city wall, Hafleur Here is an open treasure house, and you can come whenever you want.

"I don't know what's going on with Edward. Hey, anyway, the money is in hand, and the things are done. Let's live a chic life." Dex shrugged, stepped on the board and stepped off the boat.

Most of the fellow pirates were not knights, they were basically farmers and fishermen who could not make ends meet, and they embarked on the road of piracy under the instigation and temptation of this noble pirate.

Effective and regular training is out of the question. These pirates used to do some serious business, occasionally robbing houses, and their weapons and equipment are also very backward. Most of them are short daggers and fine guns. Few of them wear light armor and knight long swords like Dirks. .

A gang of mobs relied on raids to succeed every time. Whenever the vision was not good, it was a time when Dexter's activities were high, but the inaction of the previous lord also played a large part of the reason.

After landing on the shore, Dekes ordered his subordinates to swarm up, but he calmly cleaned up the mud on his shoes, and walked ashore carefully. what heart.

The suspicious sentinels along the coast responded quickly when they saw the situation, and Dexter was not worried about it at all. After all, he watched the sentries rushing to the monastery on the mountain to report the situation every time, and waited until his fleet left. , I didn't see the lord leading the troops over.

"Haha, hurry up." Dexter snarled like a monkey in a circus. After all, he suffered a big loss when he invaded Honfleur last time, and almost capsized with the boat. This time, he will show his presence here. .

Possant leaned against the mound, peeked out half of his head to check the situation, smiled secretly, lit the firewood and tossed it high, which was the pre-agreed signal to attack.

The ambushed archers were neatly scattered all over the coastline, and this scene really frightened Dexter.

"Quick...quick...run." Dex shouted, turned his head away, turned around and ran away.
