in the cabin.

Bai Xiaowen's body suddenly shook: "The real widow is really brutal and abnormal, and it can't be handled by common sense." ”

"What's wrong?"

"The housekeeper under Ye Mazi's control, Arima Jiro...... He was beheaded by Shinkuro Matsuura. Bai Xiaowen said.

Li Shuyi was taken aback: "Did he see through it?"

Bai Xiaowen shook his head: "Matsuura Shinkuro's last order was to pursue, he should have believed Arima Jiro's words." It's just that what Arima Jiro said made him hate us very much, and Arima Jiro himself was incompetent, so Xin Jiulang killed him in a rage to vent his anger. ”

"This is too unreasonable, if you don't see through it, in the eyes of Matsuura Shinkuro, Arima Jiro should be regarded as a friendly soldier who has just escaped from the enemy camp, how can he say that he will kill it. ”

Bai Xiaowen sighed: "This may have something to do with the difference in culture." Matsuura Shinkuro, a reckless man, who killed people so recklessly, made my plan a little frustrated...... Originally, I wanted Arima Jiro to blend in with Shin Kuro's flagship, first, to determine the direction of the pursuers, but to find opportunities to destroy the enemy. Now that Arima Jiro is dead, we have lost an internal response. ”

"What should I do?" asked Li Shuyi with some concern.

"It's just a small setback, and it doesn't affect the big picture. When Shinkuro Matsuura went to sea to hunt me down, he was already doomed. Bai Xiaowen walked out of the cabin, looked at the rolling seawater, slightly measured the wind speed, water flow and ship speed, set the parameters, and calculated the time for the other party to catch up.

"Sail to Ningbo Mansion!" Bai Xiaowen suddenly ordered.

"Yes!" Zhang Ting, who was in charge of the command, shouted, "Thirty on the right side!"

The command of the right rudder thirty was repeated at the helmsman, and a creaking sound sounded, and the two warships adjusted their course slightly, cleaving the waves and sneaking on the blue sea.

This is also the reason why Bai Xiaowen wants to secondment the Ming army's own soldiers, he himself will not operate this kind of Ming Dynasty warship, if he does not borrow troops, even if he has a ship, he can only stare dryly, how can he sail on this sea, lure the enemy deep and plan to kill the enemy chieftain?

With Zhang Ting, a well-known pro-soldier lieutenant, as the captain, Bai Xiaowen only needs to say where he wants to go, and Zhang Ting will naturally command the fleet to arrive.

"Bai Xiaozhenren, they have appeared!" Zhang Ting used a monocular, which is what the commander of the Ming army called "Qianliwang", to look in the direction of Penghu Island, and at the same time warned.

"How many ships are coming?"

"There are no less than ten, I'm afraid there are close to a thousand people!"

Bai Xiaowen smiled: "Okay, I know...... The two boats were side by side, and only the sailors who could steer the ship were left on the flagship, and the others all went to the second boat!"

"Yes!"

Bai Xiaowen's order was efficiently carried out by the pro-soldiers, and the Ming army sailors on his flagship all showed superb water combat skills, scratched the hook together, and jumped to the second warship.

On the flagship, only a dozen sailors were left to operate the ship, including Zhang Ting, Yuan Yuan and Zhou Zhan.

"My lord, dare to ask, why did you send the sailors to the second ship? Even if you need to adjust the personnel, you should gather the majority of troops on your flagship, and protecting the safety of the commander is the first priority. Zhang Ting said.

Bai Xiaowen shook his head: "No, this flagship will soon become the main battlefield of the decisive battle between me and the bandits, and I am afraid that it will inevitably be destroyed in the end." This is a pirate ship that I captured from the Japanese Kou Chen One-eye, and it's not a pity that it was damaged. The other boat was borrowed from Governor Hu, and if it sank, Governor Hu was afraid that his face would not look good. Anyway, my final plan is that only one boat is enough. ”

Zhang Ting seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but he still nodded and didn't ask again.

Bai Xiaowen looked around at the remaining dozen or so Ming army soldiers on the flagship and said, "There is no need to panic if you are left, you can all survive." And I won't take a penny from the credit for the destruction of the true widow in this war, and I will share the profits with you, so that you can also have a wife and a son. ”

Bai Xiaowen's prestige in the anti-Japanese Ming army has reached the level of reverence, and what he said is still very powerful in the ears of these Ming soldiers. If another person said the same thing, they might not believe it, but what Bai Xiaowen said successfully stimulated their morale.

"My lord, Matsuura Shinkuro has caught up!" Zhang Ting said loudly.

Without looking for thousands of miles, Bai Xiaowen could already see Matsuura Shinkuro standing at the bow of the boat in the distance, and could even feel the strong murderous aura in the other party's eyes.

"Zhang Ting, order the two boats to scatter left and right and move in a straight line. Bai Xiaowen said.

Although Zhang Ting did not understand what he meant, he still complied and shouted out the order to turn the rudder.

The two boats, which were originally side by side, spread out left and right like dismantled mandarin ducks, speeding up.

......

When Bai Xiaowen saw Matsuura Shinkuro, Matsuura Shinjiuro naturally saw him as well.

"Keep chasing, speed me up!Catch up with these pigs, I'm going to take off that damn Akito's head with my own hands!" Matsuura Shinkuro roared, adding in his heart, he wanted to take back his love sword!

"My lord, the two ships of the other side are scattered!, which one shall we chase?" asked the helmsman of the Woko flagship.

Shinkuro Matsuura narrowed his eyes: "This is ...... The tactics of the gecko's tail cut-off? These Ming people really think that they can escape, which is ridiculous. ”

But he was thinking in his heart, which boat would his love knife be in?

It stands to reason that the love knife should be on Bai Xiaowen's flagship.

However, will the other party deceive and hide his love knife in another boat, scatter and escape, so that it can be used as a bargaining chip to blackmail himself in the future?

"We are ten times more numerous than the enemy. They scattered and sailed, and we divided our forces to pursue!" Matsuura Shinkuro sneered, "I took half of the ship to chase the other party's leader. Sisuke, Chasuke, you take the rest of the fleet and go after the opponent's second ship!

Matsuura Shisuke said worriedly: "The number of enemies is so small, and they still divide their troops, which is suspicious everywhere." Lord Xin Jiulang, I think we should ignore the others and concentrate on chasing each other's leaders. ”

"Don't be so cowardly, Shisuke!" Shinkuro Matsuura was a little annoyed, "We have so many samurai, and there are only one or two hundred people on the other side!"

There are thousands of real Japanese soldiers brought out by Matsuura Shinkuro this time, and most of them are Japanese elites who have seen bloody killings, and their strength is quite strong. Even if the troops are divided, there are as many as 500 people on one side, and it is definitely a crushing advantage to deal with the Ming people who only have one or two hundred people.

"Okay. I can use the divine power of Takamagahara to speed up our fleet. Leader Xin Jiulang, intercept them as soon as possible, and meet immediately after a quick battle!"

Matsuura Shisuke straightened his hat and shook the white paper fan. In the sky, the clouds began to gather slowly, and wisps of cold wind blew.

The sails of the dozen or so ships seemed to be pushed by an invisible force, and they became swollen, and the speed of the ships was noticeably faster.

"Good!"

Matsuura Shinkuro was overjoyed, and immediately waved his hand and ordered the two clippers to take a detour diagonal line to intercept Bai Xiaowen's flagship in a roundabout way. He took three other ships with him and pursued them at the end of the line.

Bai Xiaowen and the Matsuura family's fleet was originally a straight line formed by one after the other. However, Bai Xiaowen ordered to disperse, and the two boats drove one on the left and one on the right, and the Matsuura family fleet behind them formed a "T" shaped right angle.

At that moment, Matsuura Shinkuro bit the tail of Bai Xiaowen's flagship and continued to pursue in a straight line in a T-shape, while the two clippers took the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle and went around in a roundabout way to intercept Bai Xiaowen's flagship.

As long as Bai Xiaowen's flagship can be delayed for a while, the follow-up Matsuura Shinkuro will be able to successfully catch up, and he will be ashamed.

Matsuura Shinkuro's plan was very successful, he could see through Qianli that Bai Xiaowen's flagship had been intercepted by two clippers, and the brave and fearless Japanese samurai had already begun to crash into the ship and jump into the gang, and Bai Xiaowen's flagship had come to a standstill!

Hmph, Matsuura Shinkuro dropped his Qianli Wang, and shouted in an excited tone: "Full speed ahead!"

After a short journey, Matsuura Shinkuro's three ships finally caught up with Bai Xiaowen's flagship, and the collision between the ships almost made people stand unsteadily. Immediately afterwards, the heavy wooden planks were laid out, and a team of Japanese warriors stepped on the wooden planks and killed Bai Xiaowen's flagship!

And Matsuura Shinkuro, with an almost boiling killing intent, turned on the forbearance skill for the first time, touched the handle of the "borrowed" replacement katana, and quietly boarded Bai Xiaowen's flagship, ready to give Bai Xiaowen an unforgettable lesson!

However, just after the three ships collided with Bai Xiaowen's flagship, Bai Xiaowen, Zhang Ting and others, who were fighting in a group to defend against the Japanese invaders, rushed along the side of the ship to the bilge as if they had made an appointment in advance.

"These cowardly Ming people, seeing that the situation is not good, only know how to escape. Hmph, where can they escape to above this sea?" thought to Matsuura Shinkuro.

"Chief, Chief's Sword!" exclaimed.

Matsuura Shinkuro, who was in a state of forbearance and stealth, heard everyone's exclamations, and when he looked up, he was almost mad, and the family heirloom knife he loved like a treasure was actually nailed to the height of the mast, and the scabbard was missing. If you don't look closely, it's really hard to spot.

Matsuura Shinkuro did not show his face for safety, but instead commanded a Japanese robber, climbed the mast, and took down his sword.

"Those Ming people occupy the bilge, and they are probably going to fight to the death. "Matsuura Shinkuro is not there, but the voice is echoing over the deck, there is a little ethereal feeling, others can't judge his position through the sound at all, this is also the strength of the ninja escape skill.

"Only by killing them can we keep the honor of the Matsuura family samurai! What are you doing in a daze, go to the bilge for me, smash their hatches, and pull out those lowly rats!" Matsuura Shinkuro ordered.

A group of elite pirates howled and rushed to the bilge.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

There was a boom, followed by a shock of the hull, followed by a thrilling explosion!

Bai Xiaowen's flagship, under the blasting of a huge amount of gunpowder, fell apart almost immediately. Then, the terrifying wave blew out, and one by one, the elite widows, including Xin Jiulang in the state of "forbearance", were blown away like pieces of paper.

Of course, this kind of explosion is fatal to ordinary people, but for these elite pirates, it is just that they will be injured to a certain extent. As for the high-ranking leader Matsuura Shinkuro, he didn't even receive much damage from explosions and impacts, but he just looked a little embarrassed.

"Gunpowder blows up the ship, are those Akito crazy?" scolded, Matsuura Shinkuro. However, a bad feeling flashed through his heart, where did those Ming people get the gunpowder? and it was a huge amount of gunpowder that destroyed a large ship in an instant!

The huge ripples of the water spread, and the surrounding Japanese warships were pushed by the huge waves and retreated more than a dozen feet.

After the hull exploded, Matsuura Shinkuro's forbearance dissipated and fell into the water.

Whoa!

An iron chain whizzed in. It was clear that the chain had been gathering momentum for a long time, and it hit Shinkuro Matsuura with incredible precision, causing him some penetrating damage.

It's a stitching monster fat boy.

The Meat Hook skill is activated, and after hitting the target, it will drag the target back, but only if it is determined by strength.

Although Shinkuro Matsuura is an agile boss, his strength is still higher than that of the stitching monster fat boy. He sneered, grabbed the chain with one hand, and pulled back, like a tug-of-war, and dragged the huge body of the fat boy at the other end!

Hula!

The fat boy's fat body drew a parabola in the air.

However, Matsuura Shinkuro missed one point, that is, he was in the water at this time, and his movements, especially his pace, were not as flexible as on land.

Originally, he planned to drag the stitching monster over, take a step back to make way for the landing point, and then complete the second kill with a domineering knife drawing technique.

But in the water, Matsuura Shinkuro's habitual retreat did not stagger his position, but only swam backwards less than half a foot away.

Stitching the fat boy's huge ass is like a grinding plate, and he sits down head-to-head.

Boom, Tarzan is overwhelming!

The fat boy made a huge splash and smashed Matsuura Shinkuro into the water, and in an instant, it was a foot deep! Then, the fat boy's thick arms firmly encircled Matsuura Shinkuro, and one person and one monster sank down at the same time.

Matsuura Shinkuro tried to break free, but the fat boy not only wrapped his hands around him, but the chains wrapped around him were firmly bound all the time. As soon as he struggled, he found that the fat man in front of him was not as empty as he appeared, and his strength was quite low, and he couldn't break it off for a while.

"Just now, this monster flew over as soon as I dragged it, is there a deception?" Matsuura Shinkuro had a bad premonition in his heart.

That's exactly the case, the tug-of-war just now, it seems that the fat boy seems to be trying his best to drag Matsuura Xin Jiulang over, in fact, Bai Xiaowen knows that this is impossible, so when Matsuura Xin Jiulang pulls back, the fat boy simply relaxes his strength and is dragged over smoothly.

High Boss, you can hold your breath underwater for a short time, and it is no problem for ten minutes. And a pirate boss like Shinkuro Matsuura can hold his breath for more than twenty minutes, so he is not flustered, and his legs continue to kick and kick the current, trying to surface.
