As soon as he entered, Wu Ruotang immediately walked out of the deck and found that there were some islands in the distance, and there were many cruising warships.

"Commander Chen, is there a pirate on the other side?" Wu Ruotang looked at Chen Ling and said with a solemn expression.

After Chen Ling saluted Wu Ruotang, he pointed to the islands in the distance and said, "Wu Baihu, this place is called Huanglong Island, and it is the lair of the pirate leader Huang Dalong!" This old boy is the strongest pirate within a hundred miles! Defeat him, and the rest of the pirates will be cleaned up! ”

"I see that there are a lot of warships on this Huanglong Island!" Wu Ruotang narrowed his eyes and said.

Chen Ling smiled calmly and said confidently: "Pirates are always pirates, no matter how many ships there are, they won't be used well, with our strength, it's enough to destroy them!" ”

Chen Ling's self-confidence gave Wu Ruotang a lot of encouragement, and at this time, the Huanglong Island warships cruising in the distance also approached the formation.

Under Chen Ling's order, the ships of the five sailors raised their sails at the same time and accelerated to the front, and soon the fleet of Huanglong Island also raised their sails, with several three-story warships as the center, and the other ships as two wings, forming a moon-shaped formation towards the sailor fleet

Although the fleet of Huanglong Island was large, the fleet of the sailors was much more flexible than them, and after a while, the fleet of the sailors seized the upper hand, and rushed towards the right flank of the fleet of Huanglongdao from one side like a tiger

"Load the shells, take aim" The ships of the sailors locked on to an opponent, and the captains gave orders, and the boatmen in charge of operating the ballistas placed the jar full of fire oil in the trough of the ballista and lit the arquebus on it

"Cannon" With this order, more than a dozen fire and black smoke of the fire oil jar flew out of the side of each ship, towards their intended target, these black shadows from the appearance to hit the target is a matter of an instant, suddenly the winning few clippers suddenly rose a flame, the splashing of jar fragments and splashed out of the fire oil made those who were caught off guard The pirates of Huanglong Island immediately let out a wail, only to see a few unlucky guys howling like fireballs and flying towards the sea, The unlucky ones were burned and blinded like headless flies and scurried around the surface of the ship, causing the nearby pirates to flee in all directions, and the chaos became an instant.

Luckily, some of the ship's leaders were able to get their heads in their minds and ordered the archers to shoot down their accomplices, who were scurrying around with fire, to stop the spread and chaos of the ship's fire, and to gather their men to start extinguishing the fire.

Wu Ruotang, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, suddenly saw from the telescope that a weapon he didn't expect appeared on the big ships on Huanglong Island, "Stone thrower!" ”

Wu Ruotang was taken aback, and immediately notified Chen Ling beside him, Chen Ling also grabbed Wu Ruotang's telescope and looked at it, and urgently ordered the flag bearer to order all ships to be on guard, avoid these big ships on Huanglong Island, hit the small boats first, let them be careful of these big ships, and the flag bearer immediately waved the small flag and conveyed Chen Ling's order to several other ships

Wu Ruotang grabbed the binoculars and carefully watched the big ships on Huanglong Island, and after looking at it for a while, he couldn't help laughing, these people on Huanglong Island are really geniuses, and they don't know where to get these siege things, although he does not deny that the power of the stone thrower is huge, and it can be said that the power of their ballista is greater under the same conditions, but he clearly knows the shortcomings of these simple stone throwers!

First of all, these catapults are huge in size, very heavy, and complex and troublesome to operate, the important thing is that these catapults cannot shoot moving targets at all because of structural reasons, and the catapults do not have the function of moving left and right, if you want to shoot at the enemy ships, unless you aim their bow at the enemy ships, and the adjustment of the range is troublesome to death, they can actually come up with this stupid way to deal with the ballista of the sailors, Wu Ruotang really admires the person who came up with this idea, it is really genius, It's just asking them to die!

What's more, even though they are only equipped with small stone throwers, the weight of these small stone throwers is already scary enough, because the things they provide fire power mainly rely on the counterweights below, and these huge stone weights make the weight of the whole stone throwers reach a terrifying level, because the weight of the stone throwers is huge, and after these big ships are loaded with this, the ship tilts down, and they have to load the same weight of stones at the stern to balance, so that these big ships are all in a full load, Not to mention that the ship was much slower, and they had to constantly adjust the direction of the bow, completely losing their flexibility, completely losing the advantage that their ship was strong and could be used for ramming!

Wu Ruotang observed the battle situation around him, and briefly said his thoughts to Chen Ling, Chen Ling didn't understand for a while, but he immediately agreed with his opinion, and let the ships shoot a burst of fire and oil bombs, hitting several nearby Huanglong Island clippers in flames, and then ordered the ships commanding the sailors to turn the rudder and start to break away from the fleet of Huanglong Island and sail towards the upper wind

Although this contact battle made the four speedboats of Huanglong Island lose their combat effectiveness, and the other few clippers were damaged, after all, there were many ships on Huanglong Island, not to the extent of breaking their muscles and bones, but it still caught the people of Huanglong Island off guard, and they were a little flustered

Seeing that the fleet of Huanglong Island began to shrink, Chen Ling and Wu Ruotang discussed it, and then commanded the fleet to turn around again and pounce on the fleet of Huanglong Island, this time they attacked the left flank of Huanglong Island, once the two sides approached, the ship of the sailor was attacked by a fierce fire and oil bomb, this time there were three more speedboats of Huanglong Island turned into huge torches, stopped at the sea and circled, and the remnants of the ship were busy putting out the fire, but how could the oil fire be easily extinguished? There was a boat that saw that the fire was difficult to extinguish, so they began to jump into the sea to escape, and a group of desperately struggling toads immediately appeared on the sea, and the ships of Huanglong Island tried to surround the ships of the sailors, but the ships of the sailors did not love to fight, but began to turn and flee again in harmony and fled into the distance

Two contacts, there are seven ships on Huanglong Island because the sails were burned and lost their ability to move, one of the ships is completely finished, and finally the people of Huanglong Island began to wake up, this is definitely not the way, so their fleet began to sound a burst of war drums, those remaining ships then full sails, adjust the course, and chase towards the sailors' fleet, as Wu Ruotang expected, they want to rely on more people and more boats, and carry the price of losing a few more boats, dragging the sailors' ships, Then get close to a ramming or jumping ship!
