Chapter 337: Fleeing for the Boat
Zhang Zhongjian is a very idealistic and ambitious person, which is embodied in not only sitting but also being able to get up and walk.
I discussed the countermeasures with Miyamoto Musashi, and said that we would do it. The next day, Zhang Zhongjian formed a large fleet. There were more than 400 ships to lure the enemy fleet, and Zhang Zhongjian and Yun Hao had full agreement on their attitude towards the Jiaozhi people. These bastards are just a bunch of monkeys, not people, if they don't really lack people. Kill them, and don't choose these stupider than pigs.
For them, Zhang Zhongjian feels that it is very suitable to be cannon fodder, and it has always been a pragmatic attitude to make the best use of people's talents and materials.
The mighty decoy enemy fleet set off, and Zhang Zhongjian didn't expect them to bring any substantial damage to Yun Hao. As long as Yun Hao's two giant ships can be lured to Penghu, it will be considered a win, and there are a large number of reefs outside Luermen. The bigger the ship, the faster it will die here.
The weather was very good today, and Yun Hao decided to raise the hot air balloon. With the advantage of height, the hot air balloon can play a good role as a lookout, and with the newly developed high-powered telescope of the college, it can simply play the effect of clairvoyance.
"Handsome! Ahead of the discovery of the pirate fleet, there are a lot of them! Liu Renliang took the note passed from the hot air balloon and reported to Yun Haoyu.
"The boiler is pressurized, Zhenhai is on the left, and Dinghai is on the right. Rushed up, and the eight-ox crossbow was loaded with gunpowder crossbow. Yun Hao's telescope looked at the sea level for a while, and then gave an order.
There are really a lot of boats coming, densely packed with black dots and white sail shadows. I want to see what Zhang Zhongjian is capable of. The difference in height between the decks was ten feet, and Yun Hao didn't believe that any pirate would be able to jump onto his ship.
The brass bell above the cockpit rang rapidly, and the whole ship became nervous. Li Wenzhong on the Dingyuan had a cruel smile on his face, he really wanted to taste the slaughter of these pirates. Everyone who has seen the tragic situation in Quanzhou City wants to try it.
The stoker desperately threw the fine coke into the hearth, and the speed of the huge warship was rapidly lifted by the action of steam. The huge bow of the ship slammed down, and then it went straight up. The waves on both sides form a waterline, and although there are only two boats, there is a feeling of thousands of horses.
Despite many preparations, Zhang Zhongjian and Yun Hao's unexpected encounter was still unexpected. The first thing that caught Zhang Zhongjian's eyes were two huge puffs of black smoke. The black smoke stands out on the midday sea! Soon, Zhang Zhongjian saw two huge warships. And, of course, a hot air balloon over the battleship.
"Let those cochin monkeys rush over, and those who retreat without permission will be killed!" Zhang Zhongjian spat on his teeth, Yun Hao's ship was too big. It's so big that the well-informed Zhang Zhongjian has never seen it!
The order was frightened a little late, and there were already signs of a U-turn on the boat of the Cochins. Zhang Zhongjian waved his hand fiercely, and his boat rushed over. Before the ship could turn around the hull, the thick ramming angle of Zhang Zhongjian's boat pierced into the hull of the warship.
"Kill!" Zhang Zhongjian brandished the heavy Mo knife and jumped down first. A force split Huashan, and the oncoming captain split it in half. Behind him, he is full of good hands that he has gotten over the years. In just a few moments, the entire boat of more than 20 people was killed.
The two bodies of the captain were raised to the mast, and the sides of the boat were covered with human heads, which was the best horn for attack. No one dares to retreat anymore, Zhang Zhongjian's temper knows best, killing a person is no different from killing a fish.
Hundreds of warships rushed towards Yun Hao's Zhenhai and Dinghai in dense formation. One by one, the pirates on the ship stripped down to only their crotch cloths, and there were even big men with ropes piled under their feet. In a moment, they will have to rely on these ropes. Climb aboard the two tall warships, and then use the blade in your hand to kill all the people on them.
When they remembered the first explosion, they knew it was naïve. Gang hopping? Scrimmage? They are still living in the world of cold weapons, and Yun Hao's two giant ships, Zhenhai and Dinghai, have successfully entered the age of firearms.
The newly developed gunpowder bolt is not only lighter, but also more powerful. The sharp spear pointed into the hull, followed by a loud explosion. The ten-zhang long warship was blown open in an instant. The sea poured into it frantically, and the warship sank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Pity the pirates who had gathered on the deck, ready to jump into the gang. It was shaken into the sea by a huge explosion, and it was filled with a lot of seawater. Some of them were even pierced by the blown hardwood, and the sea water around them was dyed red the moment they fell into the water.
This person is almost like a dead man, and what the Datang Sailor has not finished doing, there will naturally be sharks to do it for a while.
The Zhenhai and Dinghai kept puffing out tongues of fire emitting green smoke, and the shooters of the Liaodong Navy Division shot very accurately. Almost every powder bullet misses, and explosions come and go. In a short time, a large patch of broken wood floated on the surface of the sea, and pirates were constantly fluttering.
Although the number of pirate ships is very large, they are not close to the Tang Dynasty Navy Division within a hundred steps. Even if a few ships were lucky enough to rush by, when they reached the bottom of the huge warship, they fell into even deeper despair.
The ship was so fucking tall that the thick ropes couldn't be thrown on. Even a strong man could not have thrown the rope that high. Moreover, there were soldiers standing on the ship with horizontal swords, and they only had to throw the rope up. will be cut off as soon as possible, where will you be given a chance to climb up.
Some people who don't believe in evil want to climb up by the hook of a nail. But after just two steps, I was discouraged, and the hull of the ship was actually made of iron and wood. At first, I was able to climb twice with my strength, but after two or three steps, I was shocked. It is simply impossible to climb to the deck in one go. Even if you climb up, you will be overturned by a horizontal knife and kicked into the sea.
The warships under their feet only need to hesitate for a moment beside the Zhenhai and Dinghai. The mountain-like ships would run over them, and then they would be crushed to the bottom of the sea along with the warships, and not even a single bubble would come out. The unluckiest guy was actually stirred into the propeller, and the huge propeller cut people into several pieces at once.
Because of being in the water, people are not cut off all at once. It will only be cut into sections, and it looks like a continuous sausage, and the scene is quite eerie.
Zhang Zhongjian's jaw is about to fall to the deck, where the hell is fighting, it's simply slaughtering. These hundreds of warships are not even as good as small sampans in front of giant ships. Even the two huge ships did not need to attack, and the huge waves that were blowing in the middle of the march almost overturned those warships.
If this continues, let alone a plan to lure the enemy, even he will be sent to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish. In the face of absolute strength, all strategies are nonsense.
"Withdraw! Evacuate! "It's only been half an hour since the order to attack was given, and even half of the blood on the mast has not dried up on the corpse. Zhang Zhongjian hurriedly gave the order to retreat, and his huge boat did what he did, quickly turned the rudder and then sailed away without looking back.
The order was still late, and the Zhenhai and Dinghai behind them had already rushed up at high speed. Anyone who dares to bubble will be crushed to death like a bedbug.
Seeing the enemy's fierce commander fleeing, the pirates had no intention of fighting. They all turned their bows and retreated desperately. At first, they were still heading towards the Penghu Islands, but the speed of the sailing ship was the opponent of the motor boat. In a short time, two huge ships came after him. More than a dozen warships were reduced to a large debris in the explosion.
Don't look at the pirates' IQ is not enough, but some people are still smart quickly in the moment of life and death. They judged the situation at the speed of human limits, and the remaining hundreds of warships immediately scattered in all directions, fleeing in different directions like fireworks that bloomed. The vast sea was quickly covered with pirate ships.
"Nothing else, chase the biggest. Let Dingyuan chase those who escaped, and kill as many as he can. I'm going to see how many of them can get out. "Now it seems that total annihilation is impossible. Yun Hao decisively issued a military order, and the most important thing was to destroy the enemy's living forces.
Yun Hao has been in the telescope, observing the big ship for a long time. The ship was larger than any other pirate ship, more than twenty feet in size. In the past, his boat in Liaodong Sailor was nothing more than that! In the pirate's den, the one who can have such a warship is definitely a bigwig-level character. Nine times out of ten, this is Zhang Zhongjian's boat. As long as you catch up with this ship, kill Zhang Zhongjian. This time, the sea disaster will be more than half subsided!
Zhang Zhongjian was about to go crazy, and that huge warship didn't care about the small boats that were scattered and fled. Instead, he ran straight to himself, and he was already commanding from afar. When he ran away, he ran the earliest, and he was the farthest away from Zhenhai. But it was only half an hour, and the Dinghai had already appeared ten miles away. If it goes on like this, it will take another hour or two to catch up.
"Go over there, next to the ship." Zhang Zhongjian glanced at the sea helplessly, saw several pirate ships that were fleeing quickly, and immediately commanded his helmsman to lean up.
His ship couldn't outrun Yun Hao's Zhenhai, but it was much faster than the others' ships. In a few moments, the boat came to the pirate ships. Zhang Zhongjian didn't say a word, and immediately jumped onto the boat. Figures kept flashing behind him, and his henchmen jumped up with him.
As soon as the captain saw the chief scoop jumping up, he immediately walked over with a respectful face. Before he could say goodbye, he was kicked into the sea by Zhang Zhongjian. Zhang Zhongjian didn't use the Mo knife, because his heavy Mo knife was left on the boat. In the bumpy sea, only a madman would carry a Mo knife of more than 80 catties to jump into the gang.
The boss does this, and the younger brother around him naturally follows suit. Knives and fists and kicks, but in a quarter of an hour, more than twenty people on board were kicked into the sea. Those who dare to resist will chop a knife and kick it into the sea.
"Lose weight, throw everything unnecessary into the sea." The boat of twenty people jumped up to more than forty people at once. are all his own henchmen, Zhang Zhongjian is reluctant to leave behind, and he has to rely on them to live at sea. I had no choice but to throw everything that could move on the boat into the water. In this way, the waddling boat can be faster.
After listening to the order, the men quickly began to dismantle the ship. Soon the shipbuilding was gone, and everything that could be pried into the ship was thrown into the sea. Zhang Zhongjian personally steered the helm, and in the end he was a veteran at sea. The boat sails forward at a speed of speed, taking advantage of the best angle of the wind. His own boat is getting farther and farther behind him.
Although the Zhenhai was moving at full speed, it took almost an hour to catch up with the big ship. After observing for a long time, Cheng Chumo led people down the rope ladder to the boat.
Inside the cockpit, the rudder is tied to the slipway by a cable. There wasn't a single ghost on the entire ship, let alone a person, and everything on board remained intact. It is certain that the pirates did not have such a thing as gunpowder, so there could be no time bombs or anything like that.
Cheng Chumo came back, holding Yun Hao a heavy Mo knife with both hands. Yun Hao glanced at this Mo Dao and sighed, and let this bastard escape under his nose.
"Don't be upset, there are almost more than two hundred pirate ships annihilated in this battle. In any case, it can be regarded as a big victory, even if it runs away from the culprit. But if you can run for a while, you can't run for a lifetime. Didn't he build a city in Yizhou? Let's take two captives and go to his lair. We have a strong ship and a sharp cannon, even if he runs to the edge of the sky, sooner or later he will be caught by the marshal. Wang Zhe saw the annoyance on Yun Hao's face, and hurriedly persuaded him.
"Hey......! That's all there is to it, get a few captives up. Pick a fish that looks like a Han person, and we don't have a tongue person. Yun Hao waved his hand in annoyance, and immediately someone went down to the dinghy. Start looking for pirates who look like Han Chinese on the sea!
The pirates in the water swam to the dinghy as if they had been pardoned. However, because the long characteristics are too prominent, they can only soak in the water under the boat.
It's okay to say that the body is intact, but those who have injuries and keep bleeding can't wait. Sharks have already swarmed in, countless triangular fins are exposed on the surface of the sea, and from time to time a pirate screams and a large amount of blood will emerge from his side. Then, the whole person was dragged into the sea. Several sharks kept tearing, and a large living person was torn into several pieces in an instant.
Pirates were terrified of sharks, and many clinged to the side of the dinghy. As soon as the guards on the ship slackened slightly, they would try to jump on it. It often caused the dinghy to swing from side to side, and the soldiers on it almost fell into the water.
The soldiers were furious and began to wield their swords brightly. In the midst of a scream, the palms of each hand were tightly pressed on the side of the ship. The pirates who had lost their palms screamed and slipped into the sea and flapped continuously. Soon there were pirates behind them, filling their place. The soldiers had no choice but to look again.
At sunset, the dinghy returned with a few captives. The ship's side is full of dense human hands!
