"Report!"

Outside the captain's room of the Struggle, a guard rushed over and saluted and reported, "Your Excellency, the first ship of the Tang Pirates has entered our fire coverage!" ”

"Well, the gunners are in position, and as soon as the opponent fires, immediately counterattack." Beckett said lightly.

"Yes!"

The guard received the order and turned and ran away.

Soon, the Tang Pirate ships began firing at the Endeavour, and the steel cannonballs in the sky smashed at the Endeavour.

The Struggle also immediately fought back.

It's a pity that although both ships are within the firing range, the distance is so far that the accuracy of the shelling is very difficult to control, so basically the first round of firing, both sides are exchanged blanks.

After another five minutes, the two ships were already in the middle of the distance, and the artillery fire on both sides really began to work.

The Struggle is the flagship of the Sunset Fleet, not only the largest hull, but also wrapped in iron sheets, which can be regarded as a semi-ironclad battleship, and can basically be completely carried for medium and long-range cannons.

The armed pirate ship of Howling Wind is different, although the impact speed is the fastest, but the accuracy of the fire is a lot worse, and the large wooden ship is very easy to be pierced by cannon shells.

By the time of the third round of firing, the Endeavor had not suffered much damage, but the armed pirate ship that rushed to the front had already been sunk by the Endeavour.

Another guard came running and reported: "Report! Your Excellency, we have managed to sink one of the enemy ships! ”

"Well, what about the other pirate ships?" Beckett asked.

The guard immediately replied, "Other pirate ships have already come within our range. ”

As soon as the words fell, the cannonballs in the sky smashed into the Struggle.

Howling Wind uses a wolf pack strategy.

You Becket are a tiger and a lion, and I am a hyena and a jackal.

No matter how fierce the tiger and lion are, when they are alone, they will be bullied by hyenas and jackals.

No matter how fierce your firepower and defense are, it is impossible for you to withstand the attack of more than 100 of my wolves.

A ship fires a round of cannon shells, and your Endeavor can't hold it.

Beckett asked faintly, "Did you find the Empress?" ”

The guard replied, "Yes, it's within our range!" ”

"Good." Beckett smiled triumphantly, "Send a red signal." ”

"Yes!" The guards saluted and retreated.

Jack asked, "What is a red signal?" ”

Beckett smiled: "Don't worry, a good show shouldn't be spoiled, you can read it and you'll understand." ”

Sou!

A red flame flew up from the Struggle, blasting a large red circle in the sky before gradually dissipating.

On the Empress, Xiaofeng stood up suddenly, frowned and said, "It's not good...... Order all the pirate ships, take a defensive formation, and prepare to retreat! ”

"Boss?" Taihong next to him looked at Xiaofeng with a puzzled face.

Howling Wind frowned and said, "We may be in trouble. ”

As soon as the words fell, a Tang pirate stumbled in, "Boss! Top dog! Behind us, a large number of Western warships were found! ”

"What?!" Taihong suddenly exclaimed, "This, how is this possible! ”

Xiao Feng subconsciously touched his bald head, and said with a hideous face: "We have a traitor!" He leaked my plans and location to Beckett! I used Maple and Jack as bait, but Beckett was even more ruthless, he actually used himself as bait! ”

Taihong said angrily: "Boss! Who is that traitor? ”

Taihong's eyes rolled, "...... I do not know. Anyone can betray me. ”

Taihong hurriedly said: "No, boss, I, Taihong, will not betray you!" My brother Taihuang died for you, I am proud of my brother, if I do something to betray you, how can I face my brother under the Nine Springs? ”

Howling Wind nodded, "I know you won't betray me, you don't know my plans, and you're still at the end of the world with Xu Feng when I gather all the pirate ships." ”

Taihong gritted his teeth and said, "Boss, you tell me who you suspect, I'll kill him now!" This kind of thing, it is better to kill a hundred by mistake than to miss one! ”

Xiao Feng thought for a moment, "Now, the situation is urgent, clear the matter of the mole, and take your time in the future." Beckett's fleet came prepared, and the number was huge, and we were counter-surrounded, and at this time, the captains of the other ships must have panicked. If we can still twist into a rope and attack Beckett's flagship with all our might, regardless of the battleships behind, we may still be able to win in a narrow way, but ...... I know my team, which is not much higher than the rabble, and when we have the upper hand, of course everyone can unite, and when the disaster comes, everyone wants to fly away. ”

Taehong asked, "So what should we do now?" ”

Howling Wind took a deep breath, "Alas, I could have helped the world get rid of a great calamity, and now, everyone is going to end up miserable because of that traitor's betrayal." Taihong, wave the flag, and order all the pirate ships to fight their own battles and break out with all their might. ”

Taihong said in horror: "Boss! Just give up? ”

Howling Wind smiled bitterly and said, "We also need to save our lives, as long as I am alive, I will still have a chance to fight Beckett again." ”

Taihong sighed helplessly, clenched his fists at the whistling wind, and then ran out in a hurry.

Soon, the other pirate ships received the flag from the Empress.

They had no intention of fighting, but when they saw the words that they could escape, they immediately turned the bow of the ship and scattered and fled.

And the Empress also began to turn the bow of the ship, preparing to break out.

The Empress's hull is large, and it is not easy to turn around, while other pirate ships are smaller and relatively flexible.

As a result, the Empress was left behind, and the other pirate ships all ran in front of the Empress, with only a few pirate ships guarding the Empress.

Taihong roared angrily, "These bastards! ”

Xiao Feng said lightly: "Taihong, don't blame them, this is a pirate, I regret it a little now, I didn't listen to Xu Feng's words...... Hopefully, I'll have a chance to see Xu Feng again. ”

At this time, the Black Pearl also sank a second frigate, but also suffered some damage itself.

Barbossa saw through the binoculars that the pirate ships of Howling Wind had all collapsed, and immediately realized that something was wrong.

Barbossa commanded Gibbs: "Right full rudder!" Raise the sails and evacuate quickly! ”

They don't have much to do with Howling Wind, and now that Howling Wind's own pirate ships have been removed, there's no need for them to fight the mighty Struggle.

Gibbs had been waiting for this order for a long time, and he immediately turned his head and shouted, "Right full rudder, raise -"

Before he could finish speaking, a musket was pressed against Barbossa's head.

A Chinese pirate with two mustaches roared viciously, "Who dares? ”
