My Magic Age
Chapter 948 49. Seizing the ship and setting out to sea
Our people quickly occupied the Galleon and detained some of the rebel sailors who had no time to escape. The sailors on the Slave Trader were all desperate people who had drifted on the sea together. Although their skills were not much different from those of the rebel sailors, they were more experienced and ruthless, so they had a slight advantage in a head-on confrontation.
In this way, our team of more than 100 people won the victory on this Galleon. When we counted the number of people at the end, we found that, including the wounded, there were less than 60 people who survived. The rebels on this Galleon had more than 180 bodies cleared directly from the ship, and more than 100 sailors jumped into the sea to escape. Even so, we still captured more than 200 sailors.
It can be seen that such a Galleon requires as many as 500 regular sailors.
The sailors on the Slave Trader saw the sailboats on the dock leaving their posts one after another, and hurriedly drove the rebel sailors on the ship into the oar room, rowing hard, and driving the sea ship to chase the ships that left their posts.
It must be said that sometimes the stick is more efficient than the carrot.
The servility of these rebel sailors is far more active than their desire for something. So although our ship was the last to move, it was the fastest ship in the sea area near the dock.
After leaving the port dock a little bit, the seven masts on the ship all hoisted the sails, the sea breeze blew, and a huge force pulled the sailboat forward to ride the wind and waves. This Gallen-class sailboat, which is more than 100 meters long, is one level larger than the Slave Trader. Such a sea ship can crush countless waves in the sea, and the sailing process is very stable.
Our ship was chasing after a five-masted sailing ship. The five-masted sailing ship was obviously in a panic and drove into a fork in the channel. There was a reef in front of it that was not discovered in advance. When it drove within a hundred meters and saw the reef clearly, it quickly turned the rudder to change its course. In this way, the sailing ship not only slowed down, but also traveled a longer distance.
Our galleon-class sailing ship inserted diagonally from behind and hit the left side of the five-masted sailing ship. The huge copper unicorn thunder rhino head statue's horn rammed into the hull of the sailing ship with a dull loud noise, like an angry rhino, and inserted its long horn fiercely into the hull of the sailing ship.
With its hard hull and sharp ramming angle, the galleon tore a huge hole in the side of the five-masted sailing ship. The sailors on the five-masted sailing ship were thrown off the deck of the ship by such a huge impact force. Some sailors flew from the deck into the air and hung on the sails, some sailors flew from the deck into the air, some fell back to the deck, and some sailors flew from the mast's lookout into the air, and finally fell into the vast sea.
Kalancuo and Luka led dozens of sailors to jump from the ramming angle to the other side's ship, killing the five-masted sailing ship on the opposite side. Many sailors saw that the situation was not good and immediately jumped into the sea to escape. In the end, only a broken ship that was about to sink to the bottom of the sea was left. The sea water poured into it from the hole on one side of the hull. Our people carried some spoils and returned from the five-masted sailing ship along the gangplank.
Victory not only brought some glory to these sailors, but also created wealth for them.
Unexpectedly, there were some valuable things on the rebel ship.
However, the five-masted sailing ship was too badly damaged to be taken away.
Our galleon also had several cracks at the front corner, and it needed to be reinforced again when the ship was repaired.
When all the personnel withdrew from the five-masted sailing ship, the other ships had already run away.
At this time, a five-masted sailing ship passed by our ship. The pirates on the ship stood on the top of the ship, holding up high-footed glasses and saluting us from a distance. It seemed that there was a sense of mutual respect.
This group of daring pirates!
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
I didn't expect that this group of pirates would successfully capture a five-masted sailing ship, and also captured enough sailors to drive them on the ship.
Seeing the frivolous smiles on the faces of these pirates, I couldn't help but ask Catalina beside me: "When did we become able to associate with these pirates?"
Catalina stood behind me with a smile on her lips.
...
When Kalancuo returned to the Galleon with less than sixty wounded sailors, I knew we were no longer able to chase the rebel ships.
So I ordered the first mate in charge of driving the Galleon to turn around and go around to the other side of the island to join our other three ships.
I regretted a little. If I had been bolder at the beginning, Noah and I had chosen to land at the port dock and concentrate all our forces to seize the rebel ships. Maybe we would have formed a fleet at this moment.
Unfortunately, this opportunity was fleeting and there was no way to plan it.
The first mate on the ‘Slave Trader’ stood excitedly in the captain's room, touching the rudder made of exquisite walnut carvings, and said to me with excitement: "Master Jijia, let's move to this Galleon in the future! The facilities on this ship are really great. I can smell the brand new paint on these furniture. It is different from the rotten and moldy ‘Slave Trader’. This ship is brand new inside and out!"
He didn't want to call me Captain, but rather called me Magician Jijia. In the hearts of these sailors, the status of a magician is more noble.
"If you like, of course you can, but if you want to drive this ship, I have a condition." I said to the first mate.
"What condition?" The first mate asked me impatiently.
"Of course, recommend a driver for the Slave Trader. I need someone to drive that ship!" I said to the first mate.
"This is very simple. On our ship, everyone knows a little bit of sailing skills. They only need a little training to be competent." The first mate said casually. It seems that as long as he is allowed to drive the galleon, he dares to do anything.
Kalancuo stood on the deck and taught the sailors to learn first aid. Kalancuo thought that the bows they tied on the wounds with bandages were not very good-looking, and there was no first aid knowledge at all during the bandaging process. In Kalancuo's words, these sailors are not as good as the orcs in the village.
I thought to myself: These sailors certainly can't compare with those orc warriors. The orc warriors in Xinliu Valley have experienced dozens of battles and have gradually grown up from the battles.
From a distance, I saw Kalancuo washing a sailor's wound with salt water, and then took up the needle and thread to sew his arm repeatedly, and finally wrapped the wound with a hemostatic bandage.
Such a simple treatment method alone made the other sailors on the ship stunned.
A kind of understanding appeared on their faces, it turned out that the wound could be treated in this way.
The Gallen-class sailing ship is a huge sailing ship like a dreadnought. The huge keel of the entire sailing ship is not made of iron and wood, but the skeleton of an unknown giant beast. This skeleton is fixed into the shape of a large sea ship by countless wooden frames, and then the builders used wooden boards to piece together such a huge sea ship.
...
When the Gallen-class sailing ship appeared in the sight of the three sailing ships, the Belan, the Shirley, and the Slave Trader, the sky was already slightly bright.
I saw six small boats constantly shuttling back and forth between the sailboats and the coast. Women and children sat on the small boats, and men jumped into the sea, swimming and pushing the small boats towards the sailboats.
When the people on the shore began to discover the galleon, they seemed very nervous. The sailors guarding the shore jumped into the sea and swam towards the three sailboats. The sailors could only fight on the ship.
The sailors climbed onto the ship and found that the sailors standing on the deck of the galleon were not enemies, but companions on the "Slave Trader". They excitedly took off their shirts and waved them madly in their hands. The people on the shore also cheered us.
Noah and Shirley Newman couldn't wait to ride on the magic broom and fly directly to the ship. Noah jumped off the magic broom, ran to me, punched me hard on the shoulder, and said to me excitedly: "Ji Jia, you are amazing. You actually brought back a ship!"
I touched my head, smiled, and said with a little regret: "If we had known that the rebels on the dock had no fighting power, we would have taken the port in one fell swoop last night!"
Noah looked at the Galleon-class ship. After seeing its full appearance, he exhaled and said with ease: "We are not prophets and cannot foresee the future. It's good now. At least I don't have to worry about who to throw down. You know this is a very difficult multiple-choice question, but now we have the ability to turn it into a multiple-choice question, so I will choose-all."
Noah and I stood on the top of the Galleon-class sailing ship's ship building and saw Ying Li waving to me on the "Slave Trader".
A fish belly white light appeared on the horizon, clearly depicting the slightly downward curved sea level.
The color of the azure sky gradually faded, and the stars retreated. Those clouds like gauze turned into white silk scarves floating in the sky.
Conason City was still in chaos, and the whole city was billowing with thick smoke. After dawn, the smoke column became more and more obvious. There was no pursuer at all. It seemed that Earl Evan had calculated very accurately. After receiving the news that Earl Evan's entire fleet appeared on the west side of the Coral Reef Sea, the rebels really moved out in full force.
After dawn, the smoke column on Conason City could no longer be concealed. Perhaps the rebel fleet would soon know the news, and perhaps they would soon return to Conason Island. If we had not left Conason Island by then, we might not have to leave in a hurry.
"I will tell Captain Just that those who stay on the beach must speed up!" Noah said.
"I will bless everyone with the magic of 'walking on water', but this is not a lake after all, but on the sea. Maybe the magic will fail when you are not paying attention, so let the sailors pay attention to the safety of others!" I said to Noah.
Noah nodded quickly and said to me excitedly: "With the magic of 'walking on water', I don't know where we can't go!"
I smiled and shook my head, but didn't refute.
Noah was a little too exaggerated. At least the underwater world where the Naga Sea Clan lives and the cloud city where the Winged People live are not places where 'walking on water' can go.
I stood on the shore and bless everyone with the magic state of 'walking on water'. Captain Just led the people on the beach, arm in arm, and everyone stood hand in hand on the surging sea, walking towards the ship little by little. Although the steps were very slow, they were much more powerful than the carrying capacity of six small boats.
Of course, some people would fall down, but they would be immediately pulled up by their companions and continue to move forward. The elderly, children, and women were surrounded in the center of the crowd.
These residents living on Conason Island grew up in the sea. They may not be able to cross the five-mile sea from the shore to the location of the sailboat due to their physical strength.
But if they fall into the sea, they can float on the sea for a short time, and then be pulled up by their companions and quickly rescued to the accompanying lifeboat.
These residents on Conason Island, who are also the families of the warriors under Earl Evan, boarded the ship in batches.
…
"Ji Jia, I have a feeling." Noah stood at the bow, looking at Conason Island gradually disappearing on the sea level, and said to me.
"Well?" Ying Li and I sat at a round table with a bottle of Rococo Flower perfume on the table. Our eyes fell on the bottle of perfume at the same time.
Noah held the railing of the ship with both hands and said, "We should actually give it a try."
I didn't understand what he was saying, so I asked him, "What?"
Noah said unwillingly, "Occupy the island city of Conason. Actually, since last night, I have always had a feeling that with our current strength, we should be able to capture this island with such a weak defense force!"
I smiled faintly, "Then what?"
Noah was stunned for a moment and said, "What then? Recapture the island city that originally belonged to us. It won't be long before it's done?"
I stood up from the round table and said to him, "I mean, after taking the city, where should we go?"
I continued, "Stay and guard the island with the residents here, waiting for Boris's rebels to gather together, and then re-attack the island."
Noah fell into deep thought.
I added, "Or we can leave by boat, just like now, taking everyone who is willing to follow us. Then, what's the point of us capturing this island city? There will be nothing else except adding some new scars to this beautiful island city."
He and I stood side by side at the railing, looking at Conason Island disappearing on the sea, and said, "We must believe that this place will belong to us one day. We can't destroy it casually now, otherwise it will become more troublesome when we rebuild it in the future. We will take it back."
"I will!"
