Chapter 890 Pelican

Akan took a negative look at Captain Hooker's men, which made the pirates except Captain Hooker's confidants scared. They are worried that once they are selected by Acan, it will become the living dead dinner of the shadow baron.

"I want to know which guy turned my fast boat upside down with a shot the last time we encountered it at sea?" Aken slanted his eyes and said coldly.

As soon as Aken said this, most of the pirates behind Captain Hook were relieved. Only one of them had red strips on his head, and the thin guy retreated step by step like five thunderbolts. Then he suddenly turned around and ran away! Captain Hook frowned and pouted at the scarface, who immediately chased him with several tall pirates.

Aken bowed slightly to Captain Hook, "In five days, we will meet at the sea." After saying that, he waved to Stoke and Xuanyuanxing, and the three took a few black crew members and went away.

At night, the door of Stoke's hotel was knocked. He opened the door and found no one, but there was a large black cloth bag on the ground. Stoke immediately greeted Aken, who lived with him, and the two dragged the black cloth bag into the house and lit the horse lamp. Opening the cloth bag, there was a solid person in it. Stoke fixed his eyes and found that it was the pirate who fled with red cloth on his head under Captain Hook.

Aken immediately called everyone. Xuanyuanxing came forward to untie the blindfold on the guy's head and dug out the rag stuffed in his mouth. Stoke came to the guy with a lamp, shaking his eyes wide.

"Are you the guy who blew over my speedboat?" Aken questioned with a fierce face.

"Sir, please forgive me!" The thin pirate immediately begged for mercy, "I can't help it!" This guy trembled all over, and when he saw the book demon, he trembled like a sieve. That wizard, don't come here, ladies and gentlemen, please forgive me. I can work for you, and I can do anything..."

"Do work?" Aken smiled strangely and said, "Our baron has some work for you to do... But how can you prove that you are the one who bombed my speedboat?"

The pirate looked around and said to Akan, "Let me go, I'll prove it to you..."

Stock cut the rope that bound him with a sailor's knife. The boy moved his shoulder, walked to the table, took a small spoon, and then took out a piece of sugar from the sugar jar. Walking ten steps away from the table, he closed one eye and glanced at a teapot on the table. Then put the sugar cubes in the spoon, placing the spoon on the edge of a chair, revealing the handle of the spoon. After adjusting the angle, I suddenly pressed the handle of the spoon with my finger and pried the spoon to pop the sugar cube...

The candy cube drew a beautiful parabola above everyone's head, "Bang!" With a sound, it is very accurate to put into the tin cup! Everyone was so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths. Even Xuanyuan, a super archer with the soul of ancient scouts, does not have the ability to shoot such a piece of candy! After a quick mental calculation, Aken was surprised to find that if this was a shell, it could hit a main mast half a nautical mile away!

Seeing that everyone hasn't spoken for a long time, the pirate said fearfully, "I also throw darts accurately. No one in the whole Caribbean can beat me. If you spare me, I can make you a little money in every port..."

Aken laughed and patted him on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to do this little thing. The Baron has something he wants you to do. If you can prove your loyalty, we won't treat you badly.

"Do you want me to be a gunner?" This boy is actually very clever.

"I don't know what else you can do besides this." Aken laughed.

The red cloth pirates patted their hearts and breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you would turn me into a zombie..."

Aken suddenly sank his face and scared him, "If you are not obedient, we have this plan. You know, even if you are turned into a living dead person, it will not affect your ability, and we have saved money.

"Don't worry, adults, ask about it. Jack Red Cloth is the most loyal and brave sailor in the whole Caribbean!" Jack patted his chest and promised.

"It takes time to prove..." Arken ignored him and turned to Stoke and said, "Stoke, this guy will be handed over to you to greet him for me. I don't know if this boy hasn't taken a shower for months. It stinks..."

............

The day after receiving the red cloth Jack, a small auction of stolen goods was held in the hidden port of Barbados. Naturally, Zhang Fan's team was also invited. Most of the stolen goods plundered by pirates are some ships and goods, including some good things. For example, there are some boat heads, rare items, muskets, swords, artillery, theodolites and so on. The organizer of the auction is the fat man of the pirate guild. This guy is very excited about this kind of thing, because he can salvage another ticket.

Because Hawkins' Galen merchant ship captured by Zhang Fan's team is too heavy as a prop to be loaded into the load space of the ring, it can only be used in this scene. Therefore, Acon doesn't care much about the ship. I just want to sell the ship and get more scene wealth before this trial scene. If it hadn't been for the naval battle with Captain Hook, and it hadn't been for galloping in the Caribbean in the next 20 years and needed this fast Galen warship, Aken would not have bothered to transform it.

At the auction, a cannon attracted the attention of Aken and the book demon. This is a bronze cannon mounted on a round cast iron frame on the deck. The gun body is very long, nearly four meters, and there are six iron hoop on the gun body. The gun has a caliber of 14cm, and it is a long barrel gun that fires 17 pounds of shells! Although the site is fixed on the deck, the direction can be adjusted 360 degrees through the moving turntable connected to the chassis and the gun body, and the elevation angle can also be adjusted from nearly flat to 30 degrees.

According to the analysis of the length of the gun body, the book demon and Aken have a long range, and there is a natural worm line in the cast iron barrel of the gun. This rifled is very shallow and obviously not man-made, because in this era, although the barrel rifled river has appeared, the cannon has no ability to make the river.

The river of this gun is naturally formed by the barrel during the casting process. And because of this natural worm line, the fired shells continue to rotate and rub in the barrel, and the worm line becomes clearer. That is to say, with the increase in the use of this gun and the more obvious bore, the range of the shell is longer.

With this unique gun barrel cast natural worm line, this gun can be said to have become a strange thing with a long range! According to the ratio of the caliber of the gun body and the emergence of natural worm lines, Akan and Shuma analyzed that the range of this large long-barreled gun can reach more than three nautical miles, and the effective range is also more than 800 meters!

In this era, there should be nothing to do! Therefore, this gun also has a prefix name:

'The nasty tongue' (dark green): a large Kou Feilin long-barre gun with a natural worm with a long range! It is a very annoying guy who always spits out sinister attacks beyond other people's range.

The champion of the spit competition: I am always the first in such a competition! No matter what kind of shell is fired, increase the range by 50%.

Nasty prank: the ability to destroy the mast sail by firing chain bombs has been increased by 50%, the damage coverage of firing grape bombs has been increased by 50%, and the penetration ability of ordinary shells has been increased by 50%.

............

Such a weapon is naturally what Aken is determined to get. Because in the naval battle in the era of sail gunships, the long-range Kou Feilin long-tube guns must be the mainstream. However, in the first 20 years of the Anglo-Western Sea War, all navigators and ship commanders did not realize this. They are still trying to destroy the great power of enemy ships and short-range cannons at close range before the battle.

This is also why pirates auction this weapon. This super-long guy takes up too much space. And it's not as powerful as cannons at close range, which is really useless. However, Akan, a book demon familiar with history, got the most precious treasure and did not hesitate to buy this unattended Kofilin large long-blin cannon.

But this nuis does take up space. The 150-ton Galen deck is only 6 meters wide, and it can barely install this long-bombed gun. However, its horizontal adjustment launch angle can only be within a 60-degree angle in front of the bow. If you want to shoot horizontally from the side of the ship, the huge recoil will make the warship roll over, which is not only dangerous, but also seriously affects the shooting accuracy!

The old sea wolf did not lie. Ten days later, Zhang Fan's team's Galen sailboat was remodeled. Even the newly purchased cannon was also installed. The rear deck building has been greatly reduced, eliminating all decorations that are not conducive to the sailing of ships and the balcony tail deck for the enjoyment of the captain. It greatly reduces the wind resistance during navigation. This ship may be the lowest Galen warship of this era.

Then the keel was strengthened and the original bow was replaced. The old sea wolf found a bow statue representing Barbados style, a Pelican, in a pile of ragged bow statues. This made Aken a little embarrassed. What does he think? Even if he can't make a lion-headed bow like Captain Hooker, he has to make a sea monster or something. Isn't a Pelican a little funny?

However, it is no wonder that the bow statue is already the most complete one in his repair shop, and this Pelican bow statue can also improve the speed and load of the ship by 10%, which is very practical for the modified light Galen warship. Therefore, the head statue of the Pelican was recognized by the book demon, and he even named the ship 'The Pelican'! According to the information of the book demon, the Pelicans will be the national bird of Barbados in the future, and the 'Peanus' is...
