109 Warning
"Turn the rudder right!!"
As a roar full of anger and humiliation erupted from Wu Shu's mouth, the five warships of Hongtang, who had been waiting for a long time, made a flexible turn, and before the pirates could react, they had already completed the entire action.
Even when he turned, Hong Tang had the opportunity to send a round of artillery fire to the pirates on the opposite side, although it didn't cause any trouble to the pirates because of the accuracy problem, but it also scared them.
When the warships of the two sides faced each other and stood opposite each other, Hong Tang's sudden strong momentum made a bad feeling emerge in the hearts of the pirates opposite.
"Rocket ready, put!!"
Without giving the other side a chance to react, a group of archers prepared to attack, and in the command, aimed the cross rocket at the opponent's hard sail, and the roaring rocket roared towards the pirates.
"Turn the rudder right, lower the sails, and get ready to put out the fire!!" The pirate boss turned pale and roared hoarsely.
Although he didn't know what Hong Tang was planning to do, a bad premonition filled the heart of the pirate boss, and he even began to regret that he shouldn't have troubled Hong Tang in the first place.
However, it was too late to regret at this time, and with a round of rocket attacks, this time the feather arrows were no longer as weak as they were just now, and they were stuck on the huge hard sails like eyes. Cheered on by the wind at full speed, a few hard sails were like a fire tree growing on a warship, and red sparks lit up the entire deck.
Fortunately, after all, the opposing pirates have experienced a hundred battles, and various rescue measures have been in place, and most of the sails were still saved in this round of rockets, avoiding the dilemma of the entire fleet losing power. Inevitably, however, their indomitable speed finally began to lag, approaching at a breakneck speed with the Hongtang fleet that was gradually approaching them.
Looking down from the sky, the warships of the two sides were facing each other, and they were about to collide with each other's fleet. However, at the critical moment, the warships of both sides passed by the dangerous shoulders under the control of skilled sailors, fully demonstrating the skills of these sailors.
It's just that Hong Tang finally let the other party take the bait, and where would it be easy for the other party to distance themselves from each other again. Therefore, regardless of the speed of the two sides at this time, under the command of the captains and platoon commanders of each team, hooks and cables fell from the sky and firmly clung to the deck of the target ship opposite.
"Boom!!"
The hook was pulled down the maximum distance, because of the inertia of the relationship tightly straightened, and at both ends of the hook, there were a few loud "zla" sounds, and several warships connected together stopped, causing many sailors on board to be affected by the huge force and staggered.
At the same time, from Wu Shu's warship, several sky-high fire thunderbolts soared upward, making a series of loud noises in mid-air, which was Wu Shu's signal to the follow-up fleet following behind him, instructing them to come as soon as possible.
"It's time for this group of guys to see the strength of our Hongtang!!" In the team, each warship had already chosen a target, and although they tended to be inferior on the ship, the Hongtang team members did not hesitate and rushed towards their opponent with confidence.
"Brothers, a lot of silver, a lot of valuable objects are right in front of you, just with this group of shrinking turtles, are we still afraid of them?" Although the pirates on the opposite side were caught off guard, they were also veterans of the battlefield with a hundred battles, and it was difficult to ride a tiger like this, where would they retreat without a fight.
The members of the Hongtang team, dressed in blue-gray armor, entered the fierce hand-to-hand combat directly with all kinds of pirates dressed in various costumes on the side of the deck.
Wu Shu's purpose is very simple, although he is full of confidence in the warriors of Hongtang, but there are many pirates who have just been recruited for a short time, and their strength has decreased, but it is still no problem to rely on them to contain this group of pirates.
His flagship was now in a state of being caught between two loaves, and the members of the ship, on both sides of the deck, desperately resisted the attack from the other side. Even Wu Shu himself, with his direct squad, as a mobile team, always pays attention to the movements around him, and whenever there is instability in any place, they will rush up to help consolidate the situation.
Perhaps the other party's pirates also sensed that something was wrong, as time went by, the opponent's offensive not only did not weaken, but as several leaders and leaders used money tactics to promise generous rewards to the pirates below, the offensive became more and more fierce, and they almost broke Wu Shu's defense several times.
It wasn't until nearly an hour after the battle that the other three fleets of Hong Tang, who had arrived late, appeared on the horizon, and the pirates on the opposite side finally began to commotion.
"The wind is tight, it's!"
Various retreat orders were issued, which greatly reduced the attack of the pirates, and finally relieved the team members who were struggling to support them.
Immediately, a fiercer battle broke out over the hook that bound each other's ships. Often, when a pirate rushes up to a hook and tries to cut the rope that connects them with a knife, there are always a few feathered arrows or steel knives on the other side to knock him out of the boat. Then, several more pirates who were not afraid of life and death continued to rush forward, continuing to move towards this goal until the hook was cut off.
The pirates also knew very well that if they could not cut the hooks and retreat before the fleets that appeared on the distant horizon approached, the consequences that awaited them would be cruel and dark.
It's a pity that the Hongtang archers who were once ridiculed by them finally showed their hideous faces at this time, although they didn't dare to say that they hit every shot, but every time a feather arrow tore through the air and flew towards the pirates on the opposite side, there was always a pirate who was more or less hurt because of this. Under the cover of these archers, the pirates always paid for the lives of more than a dozen pirates for every hook and rope they cut.
In the end, this group of pirates could not get rid of the entanglement of Wu Shu's fleet before the arrival of several Hongtang fleets, and finally fell into the overwhelming attack of Hongtang's twenty warships.
The result is self-evident, the group of pirates, who had a difference of three times the advantage of troops, were completely annihilated by Hong Tang in less than half an hour after supporting in the encirclement and annihilation of several fleets.
In the huge fleet, Wu Shu showed a rare good mood for many days, looking at the corpses of pirates on several Fu war ships, but suddenly gave a very cold-blooded order: "Hang all the corpses of pirates on this warship for me, I want these bastards to know that the consequences of provoking our Hongtang are serious on the river." ”
In the end, on a scarred warship, from the mast to the side of the ship, there were like grapes hanging densely hung with corpses belonging to the gang, floating on the sea that originally belonged to the Hongtang forces, scaring the passing ships indistinctly.
