Chapter 548: The Battle of Dongsha Island (End)
Seeing someone taking the lead in escaping, the group of thieves will scatter in a hurry, rushing to the dock to grab the ship, after all, no one wants to use their lives to buy time for others to escape.
The brothers of the 500th battalion felt that the pressure had dropped sharply, but they were not in a hurry to chase after them, but freed up their hands to reload the flintlock pistols. Why rush up and risk hand-to-hand combat when you can comfortably shoot enemies from a distance? If it weren't for the extreme disadvantage of staying on a big ship before, Qi Jingtong would not have ordered to seize the first line of fortifications.
Although the pirates are fierce, they are just a rabble after all, and they have no organizational discipline to speak of, and it is impossible to follow the rules in order to save their lives at this time. More than 200 people crowded on the dock in a noisy, and in order to get on the boat, they even scuffled with each other, like dumplings, and fell into the water, and several bows were turned upside down because of over-cutting and fighting, and some pirates even fell into the water and were still scuffling.
The soldiers of the 500th battalion were happy when they saw this, and they unhurriedly loaded the ammunition, and then took aim and shoot unhurriedly, bang, after a round of gunning, the sea surface of the dock was covered with corpses, and the sea water was stained with blood.
The pirate leader Chen Sipan, under the protection of a group of cronies, fled to the water village in a panic, and was about to board the three-masted galleon, but the sailboat started to shore at this time, and more than a dozen oars on both sides of the hull rowed at the same time, like a huge centipede.
"Damn, what kind of bastard on the boat, stop, the big boss hasn't gotten on the boat yet!" Chen Sipan's henchmen shouted.
However, the pirates on the sailboat did not seem to hear, or perhaps pretended not to hear, and with dozens of paddles on the ground, the sailboat quickly sailed out of the water village and rushed towards the sea outside the harbor.
Bang bang bang......
As soon as the three-masted galleon sailed out of the water wall, it immediately attracted the attention of the officers and men of the 500 battalion on the shore, and the fire of the flintlock pistol immediately rained down on the three-masted galleon, and several pirates who tried to raise the sails were immediately beaten into a sieve.
The second master, Chen Dong, was almost lying on the deck next to the side of the ship, his heart was cold, damn, when did the firearms of the officers and soldiers become so sharp, and they could still hit the ship so far!
"The second master, the big boss is shouting at us!" A pirate bent over and ran to Chen Dong's side and said loudly.
Chen Dong's eyes sharpened, and he raised his hand and slapped the pirate with a big ear, and scolded: "Call your mother, which ear heard the big boss shouting us." ”
The pirate was slapped with gold stars, but this thing was also clever, and immediately nodded: "Second master, I heard it wrong." ”
Chen Dong said fiercely: "That's right, if the big boss shouted, why didn't Lao Tzu hear it, go and tell everyone, if you want to live, you can paddle hard for Lao Tzu, and use all the strength of the usual godmother-in-law." ”
The pirate nodded violently like a chicken pecking rice, and then bent down and ran to the hatch, the brothers who rowed the boat were all under the hatch, however, the pirate just ran to the side of the hatch and was about to drill in, and was shot several times in the buttocks, and the chrysanthemum blood rushed on the spot, and he fell to the bilge, and the miserable howl made Chen Dong shudder, and he didn't dare to move on his stomach.
Chen Sipan watched the three-masted galleon sail away from the harbor, although he hated it in his heart, but he had no choice but to grab a clipper under the escort of all his relatives, planning to flee quickly while the attention of the officers and soldiers was on the three-masted sailing ship.
However, Chen Sipan's luck was obviously not very good, as soon as the clipper rushed out of the water village, it collided with another bow clipper coming from the side, and with a muffled bang, all the pirates on the two fast boats overturned and fell into the water, naturally including Chen Da's master......
Besides, Shen Laoqi, he didn't rush to the water village to grab the ship as soon as possible like other pirates, but strode into a cave on the island. This cave is a warehouse on Dongsha Island, used to store the wealth and materials of the group of thieves, usually the big boss Chen Sipan lives here, and no one is allowed to step into half a step without permission, otherwise the end will be miserable, there have been pirates who have violated the rules and have been fed to sharks.
If it was in the past, Shen Laoqi naturally didn't dare to rush into the forbidden land, but at this time, the trees fell and scattered, so he naturally had no scruples and strode directly into the cave.
When Shen Laoqi, who was covered in blood, appeared in the cave, a frightened scream immediately sounded. I saw a dozen or so young women squatting in a corner of the cave, trembling and huddled together, like a flock of lambs to the slaughter, and their white bodies were dazzling.
It is said that this cave is not only a warehouse, but also the harem of the big boss Chen Sipan, and the women he got were all kept naked in this cave.
Most of these women were taken back from exile from all over the world, most of them were people from the coastal areas of the Ming Dynasty, and some of them were women from the Japanese kingdom or the Nanyang island countries.
A trace of heat flashed in Shen Laoqi's eyes, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, every time he grabbed a woman, it was the big boss Chen Sipan who picked it first, so this group of women in the cave was the best and the most beautiful, and Shen Laoqi had been coveting it for a long time.
However, although Shen Laoqi is lewd, he is not confused to the point that the worm is on the brain, and it is obviously impossible to lose the big head for the sake of the momentary pleasure of the small head, so Shen Laoqi retracted his gaze with great perseverance, quickly ran to the back of the cave and hugged a box of gold, turned around and hurriedly left the cave.
After Shen Laoqi ran out of the cave with a box of gold, he immediately ran to the east of the island, and just ran out of a few dozen meters when he heard a bang, the whole island seemed to be shaken, Shen Laoqi stumbled and fell, the box also fell, and the yellow gold was scattered all over the ground.
Shen Laoqi got up in embarrassment and turned his head to look, only to see a cloud of black smoke rising from the pier on the south side of the island, high waves splashing on the sea in the distance, and a three-masted sailing ship nearby was raising its sails. It is clear that the officers and soldiers are shelling the fleeing sailing ships with the island's artillery!
Shen Laoqi thought that Chen Sipan was also on the sailboat that escaped from the bow, so he couldn't help but shake his head regretfully and scolded: "Damn, these officers and soldiers are also a group of rice buckets, so they can let Chen Sipan escape." ”
This guy knew that Chen Sipan would not let him go, so he naturally hoped that Chen Sipan would die in the hands of the official army.
Rumble......
Another shell landed in the water next to the sailboat, but it still missed the target. Shen Laoqi didn't dare to look any further, so he quickly picked up the gold on the ground and put it in the box, and then ran to the east of the island with the box.
The east side of Dongsha Island is a steep stone wall, it is difficult to climb up from below, but it is relatively easy to go down from above, Shen Laoqi is very cunning, he has long hidden a small boat between the narrow stone crevices in case of emergency, and today it finally came in handy.
Shen Laoqi came to the position of the Tibetan boat, first tied the box of gold with a rope, prepared to hoist it to the boat, and then climbed down, but as soon as he was halfway hoisted, he was caught by a flintlock pistol in the back of his head, and a cold voice immediately came into his ears: "Don't move!" ”
Shen Laoqi instantly seemed to have been hit by a fixing spell, and hurriedly said: "Don't move, don't move, I won't move, the official will spare his life!" ”
"I've seen you sneaky from afar, what's in the box?" At this time, it was Guo Jindiao's kid who used a flintlock pistol to hold Shen Laoqi's head.
Shen Laoqi's eyes rolled and said, "It's gold, official, it's a box of gold!" ”
Guo Jindiao's eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Bring it up!" ”
Shen Laoqi hurriedly brought up the box of gold, and opened the box without waiting for Guo Jindiao's instructions, turned around with a smile and said: "Master Jun, please see, it is really a box of gold, as long as the master puts it down, this box of gold is yours." ”
Guo Jindiao glanced at the gold ingots in the box, estimated to be nearly two hundred, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva and scolded: "Grass, so much gold, Lao Tzu's military salary is only two taels of silver a month, but you bastards who are pirates are so rich." ”
Shen Laoqi said with a smile: "It's just a trivial meaning, if the little brother follows the mix, I am sure to teach you to eat and drink spicy food, there is endless money, and there are endless women, what's the matter, think about it?" ”
After Shen Laoqi finished speaking, he greedily glanced at the flintlock pistol held by Guo Jindiao, and his heart was hot, if he could get his hands on this new type of firearm, and then find a way to imitate a batch, hey, he would definitely dominate the sea, and even those red-haired Yangfu would have to retreat.
Shen Laoqi had dealt with a group of Francophone people in the coastal area of Guangdong, although the number of those guys was small, but the guns on the ship were quite sharp, and there was a thing called arquebus, which was much more powerful than the guns of the Ming army. However, the thing in the hands of the Ming army in front of him looks very similar to the arquebus, but it seems to be a little more powerful, and it can be activated without an open flame at all, and it is estimated that it is a newly made firearm by the Ming army.
"Endless money, endless women, really fake? I haven't read a book, don't lie to me! Guo Jindiao said with a look of disbelief.
Shen Laoqi was secretly happy, it seemed that this was an easy to fool goods, and immediately continued to tempt: "Little brother, Lao Tzu's name is Shen Laoqi, and he is still quite famous in the Tao, can he lie to you?" Oh, look at this box of gold, you kid can't earn it as a big soldier for a lifetime, when it comes to women, hey, Lao Tzu can have as much as he wants, Ming, Korean, Japanese, and even blonde and blue-eyed Western women can get it. ”
Guo Jindiao licked his lips and said, "If you can get another box of gold, I will believe you." ”
Shen Laoqi's face froze, and he was secretly anxious in his heart, at this time, the gunfire in the distance was getting more and more sparse, and it was estimated that the battle on the dock was almost over, so he couldn't help but grit his teeth, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll take you to the warehouse on the island to get it, hehe, there are not only a lot of gold and silver, but also more than a dozen beauties without clothes." ”
Guo Jindiao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said hurriedly: "Take me quickly!" ”
"Okay, Master Jun is coming with me!" Shen Laoqi walked with a move, and when he passed by Guo Jindiao's side, he suddenly threw the box he was holding towards Guo Jindiao, who knew that the latter shot faster than him, and with a whoosh, he not only avoided the box, but also smashed the butt of a gun on the root behind Shen Laoqi's ear.
This slam smashed Shen Laoqi to death on the spot, and half of his ears were smashed.
Guo Jindiao kicked Shen Laoqi, who had fainted, and then looked down at the small boat between the stones, and said with a smile: "This old dog is quite a chicken thief." ”
At this time, Xie Erjian ran over with steam, and there were also brothers from the 500 battalion patrolling and searching in the distance, it turned out that the battle on the dock was over, and the brothers of the 500 battalion were scattering to clear the remnants of the island.
Xie Erjian glanced at the gold ingots scattered on the ground and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Guo Jindiao said with a smile: "Boss Xie, the little one just caught a big fish, this guy's name is Shen Laoqi, the third master of Dongsha Island." This cargo held a box of gold and was about to run away, but it happened to be met by the little one, listen to this guy, there is also a warehouse on the island, hiding a lot of belongings, oh, and there are many naked beauties. ”
Xie Erjian picked up an ingot of gold with his toes and flew towards Guo Jindiao, who hurriedly reached out to catch it, and said happily: "Thank you, boss!" ”
"The credit is given to your boy." Xie Erjian dropped a sentence, and when he mentioned the unconscious Shen Laoqi, he strode away.
Guo Jindiao happily put the gold ingots into his arms, and then picked up all the remaining gold ingots back to the box and put them up. In the battle, the soldiers can take 10%, but the women are not allowed to touch it, which is the rule of the 500 battalions.
……
The battle on the island lasted for nearly an hour before it ended, except for the second boss Chen Dong who led dozens of pirates to escape, Chen Sipan, the big boss of Dongsha Island, and Shen Laoqi, the third boss, were captured alive, and the fourth boss Lu Laojiu was shot in the head at the beginning.
In this battle, more than 200 pirates were killed and more than 100 were captured, while the 500 battalion suffered 32 wounded, 7 seriously wounded, and 5 killed.
At this time, more than 100 pirates, including Chen Sipan, were all tied up in the open space of the dock, and the corpses everywhere had not had time to be cleaned up, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood.
Zhu Kun had already changed into his Qipin County official robe, the blood stains on his face had dried, and the black-brown spots made the fair-skinned magistrate look a little more hideous.
The pirate leader Chen Sipan was lying on the ground, wet, with a bloody and terrible wound on his forehead, his face was white and purple, but his chest was still slightly undulating, obviously still alive.
It turned out that Chen Sipan was hit on the head by the capsized boat when he fell into the water, and if he hadn't been picked up by the officers and soldiers who happened to be chasing and killed, it is estimated that he would have drowned, but now he is also dying, and it is uncertain whether he can survive or not.
Zhu Kun was checking Chen Sipan's injury, and a soldier from the 500th battalion ran over and said respectfully: "Lord Zhu, let's let you go." ”
Zhu Su nodded, ordered someone to bandage Chen Sipan's wounds, and then followed the 500 battalion soldiers to the cave.
