Swan fired a total of three shots, and then he heard the sound of the hull being hit, which was a ship coming up. The deck guns couldn't shoot straight up and down, so he picked up his spear and began to circle around the deck, braving the constant stream of arrows, and when he felt someone climbing up, he went over and stabbed the man down. He didn't feel how many arrows he had received on his body, and at this time he had already entered the state of following his father to fight everywhere, which was more dangerous than now. I haven't tasted this kind of taste for several years, and since I hit the boat of Hongtao, I can only fight others by myself, and others don't even have many opportunities to fight back.

"This Nima is an animal! Shoot them all down for me! "The battleship was fighting lively, but there was no trace of the enemy on the dock, Hong Tao boarded the boat very smoothly, and when he approached the battleship, he could see Swan's true combat strength. He stood alone on deck wielding a short spear, and he stabbed down any enemy who dared to climb the deck, and he still had the strength to go to the side of the ship to stab those who had not yet climbed up.

Although Swan couldn't beat himself with his bare hands, but with a weapon in his hand, two of them couldn't beat one Swan, and he would always stab people, and those Indians didn't seem to be able to hide. But Hong Tao knew in his heart that this kind of kung fu was enough to practice for ten years, and it was the combined result of prediction, muscle explosion speed and courage.

There are a lot of enemies who come to attack, and there are weapons similar to bows and arrows, but compared to the large crossbows equipped by slave soldiers and slave sailors, the range and lethality are several notches behind. A row of crossbow arrows was fired, and the people who climbed attached to the hull fell like dumplings, after a few shots. The enemy will not be visible to the north of the hull. At this point the slave soldiers began to board the ship, and once the deck was occupied by the slave soldiers in leather armor, with short spears and crossbows, the ship was saved.

Don't look at Karl's business is not very good, the soldiers he trained are really not good. When the slaves went to the deck, they did not rush to look for the enemy, but waited for their companions to come up. Several people acted in a group. The person in front of him uses a short spear to cover the shooter behind him, and does not take the initiative to engage in contact combat with the enemy, and the enemy who can be solved with a crossbow will definitely not go up to fight. The enemy's arrows don't pierce leather armor, but the slave soldier's hand crossbow is aimed at whoever lies down.

"Swan! Look, it's me! Put the spear down, and I'll show you the wounds! Hong Tao followed behind the slave soldiers, holding two pistols in his hands. It's hard for a big man like him, in order to lower his goals. It's almost squatting and leaving. At first, he didn't dare to approach Swann directly, for fear that this guy would kill his red eyes and give himself another spear in the middle of the night.

"Your Majesty, who are they?" Swan was not crazy, and when he heard Hong Tao's shout, he immediately leaned over, and threw the short spear out like a javelin, piercing the enemy who had just exposed his head at the stern.

"That's a really hard question for me. It doesn't matter who it is, kill them all! Don't just use a crossbow. Go use the deck gun and light up the gas lamp! As the number of slave soldiers and slave sailors on the boat increased, Hong Tao's waist gradually straightened up, and he became more courageous, and dared to light the lamp.

"Boom...... Boom ......" Under the operation of the slave sailors, several deck guns on the south side of the ship began to roar. Pieces of iron sand sprayed into the river, and no matter how many enemies there were, they couldn't help but toss this thing. The number of people climbing the deck immediately decreased, and soon disappeared without a trace.

"It's the Eagle Clan!" When the ship's gas lights came on, Tu recognized the identities of the corpses on the deck at a glance.

"Boom, boom, boom, ......" Before Hong Tao could inquire about who the Eagle Clan was. Suddenly, there was a warning in the village, and a fire was lit. The villagers, who had been concentrated near the pier, turned around and ran into the village, and it seemed that the enemy was advancing by land and water, not only attacking the warships, but also attacking the village.

"Mouse, give me your dagger, the enemy is in the village!" Seeing that his village was under attack, Tuzhen was anxious and reached out to grab the dagger on Hong Tao's leg.

"Oops...... You are the leader, just stand here and command, by the way, see if there are any living people, don't kill them, I'm useful. Now let's see what your husband and I are capable of! The sailors remained on the ship to be on guard, and the soldiers went to the cabin to pierce the armor and prepare to go ashore to fight! A wicked smile suddenly appeared on Hong Tao's face, and he suddenly liked these enemies a little.

After killing the three elders, I don't know how to make up nonsense, and now the best excuse is actually sent to my eyes. The death and wounding of several elders in the enemy attack is too good for anyone to think about it. This kind of opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as long as you stabilize the plan and don't let her go ashore, those three elders will die as they deserve!

More than ten minutes ago, he ran from the shore to the battleship, but now he has changed to run from the battleship to the shore. It's all running, but the content is different. The former was done in a hurry, running away from his armor; The latter came prepared and ran calmly.

Each slave soldier wore a second layer of whale skin armor and a bucket hat similar to that of a Mamluk axeman. Hong Tao was not stupid, he wore three layers of leather armor, even leather gloves and boots, and his whole body was tightly wrapped, and he was not afraid of covering the prickly heat.

The slave soldiers who went ashore did not immediately rush to the village, Hong Tao took the trouble to give them a nonsense lesson, talking about the simplest tactics, the purpose was not to be afraid that the slave soldiers would not obey the command, but to create time for those enemies to kill. It is too strange and illogical to not kill and injure a few villagers, but to die three elders alone. It wasn't until the fire in the village was a little more full and the screams were loud and loud that Hong Tao led the slave soldiers who were divided into three teams to step on small steps and push them in side by side.

In the presence of a group of ten, fully armoured, armed with short spears and crossbows, the Indian warriors, dressed in animal skins, leaves, and feathers, and armed with stone axes, clubs, and wooden bows and arrows, were not as threatening as the large animals of the South African highlands.

Those arrows, whether poisonous or not, could not penetrate two layers of leather armor. Battleaxes and sticks tied to sharp stones could hurt these slave soldiers, but they couldn't get close enough to use the power of their weapons. As long as they appear within the range of the hand crossbow, they will soon be shot through the body by several pure steel crossbow arrows, and they don't know how they died. There is only one kind of pike dart that uses sharp stones as the tip of a spear to cause some damage to the slave soldiers, but it is also difficult to be fatal, at most it hurts to pierce the body, and it still does not wear through the leather armor.

There were quite a few enemies on land, at least one hundred and ten, and their attire was not quite the same, some of them wore clothes like tiger skin skirts, red bird feathers on their shields, and battle axes and war clubs in their hands; Some of them were covered with black and white bird feathers, and the stone-pointed pike darts were thrown by them; There was also a group of people who wore only a coarse cloth around their waist and no other ornamentation, and their weapon was a wooden bow.

These people are obviously full-time warriors, and their combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the warriors in the Tu tribe. They were divided into arms, taking into account the long, medium and short distances, and when they fought, they did not run around, but several people formed a small group, and they were very skilled in cooperating with each other. The warriors of the Tu tribe can fight them to a draw or even have the upper hand one-on-one, but it is difficult to fight them in an organized way, and they are either wounded by bows and arrows, or by pike darts and stone axes.

But this situation only lasted for a short time, and when the slave soldiers led by Hong Tao entered the village, the tide of battle immediately turned 180 degrees. Regardless of whether the opponent was a few people or a dozen people, there were very few who could insist on rushing to the killing distance of the short spear, and most of them were killed and injured by crossbows. The three groups of slave soldiers were dozens of meters away, like a large net, and swept north from the direction of the dock. Neither chasing the enemy, nor slowing down, always maintaining a formation.

When the main force of the enemy who invaded the village was crushed by the slave soldiers, the warriors of the Tu tribe finally relented. They don't suffer in one-on-one combat, and even take advantage of it, because they use steel weapons and must have the upper hand against enemies who are still in the Stone Age. It's just that I have been trained too much in team combat, and I don't know how to cooperate at all, so I know that I am very stupid to face death bravely.

"Boom...... Boom ......" At this time, the sound of artillery suddenly came from the direction of the wall.

"Go and tell them that Benima in the dark night is firing cannons indiscriminately, is this hitting the enemy or hitting his own people!" As soon as the cannon sounded, Hong Tao threw himself on the ground. It doesn't matter who is firing the artillery, the important thing is not to carry out this kind of indiscriminate shooting during the melee, and if you want to shoot, you have to stand behind the cannon yourself, where can you even fight with yourself!

The battle in the village did not last long, most of the enemy lay on the ground, and a few fled into the jungle to the north. Hong Tao did not dare to go deep into the jungle at night to pursue, and also stopped the warriors of the Tu tribe to prevent them from continuing to pursue. There is no point in doing that, the jungle is already terrible during the day, and it is a question of whether you can run in and come back at night.

The fighting on the river continues, not so much fighting, it should be called slaughter. Once the ship was in motion, there were gas lamps to illuminate it, and the Indians in the canoes could not fight back. By this time, Swann had already commanded the battleship to chase up the river to a mile away, and there were still sporadic cannon sounds.

The losses of the Tu tribe were relatively large, several houses were set on fire, more than 20 people died in the old and small groups, and more than 10 were injured, which was already a pain in the bones for a tribe of less than 200 people. What saddened Tu the most was that four elders were killed in this enemy attack, and there were only six elders in the village, which was good, except for a deaf and dazzling old lady, even Tu's father was killed in battle.
