Chapter 142 Wolf Tactics

Although the dhow has the advantage of fast sailing, the weather they encounter today is very unfavorable to them. The lack of wind power on the sea makes their sails unable to eat enough wind. Therefore, although their speed can still exceed that of ordinary sea boats, they rely on manpower to row without sails. The fast paddle boat can't have an advantage.

The biggest advantage of the fast paddle boat is that it can draw a very fast speed in a short period of time with human resources. This is also the reason why the pirates chose them as a pirate ship to use near the shore, because they are flexible and fast, and can come and go like the wind. If they can grab it, they will grab one and meet If you are a hard stubble or a government official, they can rely on the advantage of speed and immediately pull the wind.

Now they have found so many fast paddle boats to ambush around Kinmen Island. In fact, they have seen the advantages of this kind of fast paddle boats. They want to use them to restrain the speed of these ghost boats. They plan to bite more elephants, trap Luo Xianbin's three boats, and then encircle them.

Nowadays, the trap they set was quite successful. Luo Xianbin and his party unconsciously broke into their ambush circle and were immediately surrounded by these fast paddle boats.

In fact, Mr. Chu Cai has also hit a lot of luck today. Mr. Mr. Chu can't guess where these ghost boats will appear in the near future, so he ordered his shopkeeper to arrange several ambush points on the ocean around Quanzhou, Zhangzhou and Chaozhou, and set up a lot of traps similar to Jinmen Island, just waiting for Luo Xian. Bin and the others bit the hook.

And Luo Xianbin and his party did not know that there was fraud. When they passed through here, they were finally trapped and taken into the ambush circle. In a blink of an eye, they turned into prey and were surrounded.

Seeing this situation, although the morale of the three sea wolves' ships is high at this time, it is pure farting to say that they are not nervous. Everyone on the ship saw that the situation was unfavorable to them at this time and was very nervous.

Several small Franco machine guns installed on the deck were also unveiled at this time. Some gunners nervously began to be next to the gun position and squatted down to fill the mother's guns. If these small Franco machine guns are divided, they should only be regarded as a pound cannon. The gun body is only dozens of pounds in total, and each female gun is equipped Nine pieces can be filled with six taels of gunpowder, a door seal of about less than one catty, and dozens of broken pieces the size of broad beans.

The range of such a small Franco machine gun is less than 100 meters, and the effective range is about 50 meters at most. No matter how far away it is, in addition to the accuracy, its power is also greatly reduced.

Originally, these little Franco machine guns were mainly designed to kill and damage the enemy on the surface of the deck of the other ship, but today these little Franco machine guns have become their most important barrier.

"Go on the order, prepare the artillery of each ship, and fill the scattered bombs and grape bombs! Don't fire without authorization, put those fast paddle boats closer and then hit me hard!" After observing the situation of the battlefield, Luo Xianbin began to issue orders to judge the situation.

Although Luo Xianbin is not very old, he was the first to start his family with Yu Xiaotian among the sea wolves. In addition, he has always served around Xiaotian. His status is quite high among the sea wolves. In the small fleet under his current jurisdiction, it basically plays a mainstay role.

When he saw Luo Xianbin, a general, although he was not good at this time, he did not show panic. In this way, his men on the ship also felt a little relieved, so his order was immediately conveyed, and the gunners on the ship immediately began to follow His order was ready to fill the artillery on their ship.

Everyone can understand that the shotgun is filled with small bags of scattered iron, but the grape bomb is still a new thing for many people in this era. This kind of grape shot is actually a kind of shot, but it is much larger than the iron of the shotgun. It is the size of more than a dozen pigeon eggs or It is composed of egg-sized iron balls, which are tied with cloth bags or cloth bags, and can even be loaded into iron balls with thin iron barrels. The thickness is about the caliber of the cannon. When used, first put gunpowder or medicine bags into the gunbore, and then fill the grape bullet into the gunbore.

Although the range of such a grape bomb is not as far as the solid bomb, its range is much more than that of ordinary scattered bombs, and its power should not be underestimated. Within the right distance, it can even shoot down an enemy with one shot. If you deal with a boat, as long as you aim almost accurately, you can often destroy a small boat with one shot, not only land In battle, it is a sharp weapon, and it is also a sharp weapon in naval battles. It can often sweep a large number of enemies on the other side's boat with one shot.

This kind of grape bomb can be said to be specially prepared for killing people, but in the past, the concept that sea wolves adhered to was to seek money without asking for life. When robbing ships, they mainly dealt with enemy ships and generally did not aim at slaughtering a large number of people. Therefore, this kind of grape bomb is not commonly used on sea wolf's ships.

However, these dispatched private boats had to go deep into enemy waters to engage in high-risk activities, so when Yu Xiaotian chose weapons for these ships, it can be said that he did not hesitate to spend money. In addition to loading them with sufficient gunpowder and solid projectiles, he also equipped their ships with a certain proportion of grape bombs and shot bombs, that is In order to make them have stronger combat effectiveness.

Now these big killers prepared for them by Yu Xiaotian have finally played a role.

A dozen fast-running fast paddle boats are like a group of evil wolves. They rushed to the vicinity of the ships of three sea wolves first. The distance between the two sides has narrowed to less than 200 steps. Standing on the sea wolf's boat, you can even clearly see the faces of Chu Cai's old men on these boats opposite.

The pirates on the fast paddle ship should obviously be the fierce people selected from his men. Although it was winter, and even the temperature on the sea in Guangdong, Fujian was quite low, many of these pirates actually threw off their clothes and rowed their fast oars naked. There are also several other people on the ship. At the bow position of each speedboat, there is also a small cannon with the mouth pointing directly at the ships of three sea wolves. In addition, some of them also hold some weapons such as three-eyed guns or single-pipe fire guns, and even crossbows.

"You can't run away! Hurry down and stop the boat. Our shopkeeper Xiao said that we can leave a dog's life and report your identity as soon as possible! Don't wait for me to kill you, it will be difficult to survive!"

Some of Chu Cai's men in the distance shouted at the three sea wolves' boats and threatened them to stop the ship and surrender.

Luo Xianbin silently calculated their distance. When he saw that they had basically entered the range of six-pounds and twelve-pounds on the ship, a cruel smile appeared at the corners of his habitual mouth.

"Bah! You deserve it too! Order all ships, led by my ship, taste the word array! Pay attention to cover each other! Let's go out! Each cannon aimed at me! Don't let these fast paddle boats stick to it!" Luo Xianbin suddenly roared.

After his order was conveyed by the order flag, the other two ships immediately returned to the clear flag and quickly approached Luo Xianbin's boat, forming a character array, and the three ships could cooperate with each other to cover each other.

With Luo Xianbin's order, his boat took the lead and began to fire. This time, the guns on the left and right sides of the side caught fire almost at the same time, including the guns in the bow and stern of the ship, all fired one after another.

The cannon filled with scattered bombs and grape bombs immediately spew out a blazing flame. In the blink of an eye, looking around their boat, it was like boiling.

The scattered cannons were spilled out like a rainstorm, flying through the air and spilling into the surrounding speedboats.

Looking at a few faster paddle boats, a piece of blood fog suddenly rose. The dense scattered bombs and grapes were like a broom, sweeping across their hull. In addition to opening holes in their hull, even the bodies of the people on the ship were also pierced one after another.

A sad scream suddenly sounded on the sea, and Chu Cai's men who had been shot immediately fell into the sea, and the blood immediately dyed red.

Even a fast paddle boat was directly hit by a cluster of grape bombs, and the brisk hull was immediately torn into pieces and disintegrated into pieces in the sea on the spot.

Under such a fierce blow, these surrounding Chu Cai's old men were suddenly excited and scared. Those pulpers and rowers involuntarily stopped the oars in their hands, and the speed of the ship suddenly slowed down.

"Grandma, don't stop! Hurry up and row! There is no way to paste it! Stop and look for death!" Each of these fast paddle ships had a small leader to lead the team. When they woke up from the shock, they immediately realized the danger and quickly pulled their throats and shouted at the men on the ship.

At this time, the other two sea wolf boats also began to fire, and the gunners on the ship found a fast paddle boat that threatened them and struggled to ignite the potion of fire.

There were more than a dozen cannons, and the sea became even more lively. In the blink of an eye, three fast paddle boats under Chu Cai's old man were torn apart. They were either torn on the spot or swept over by scattered bombs, cutting the guys on the ship like rice or falling into the sea.

Mr. Chu Cai's subordinates, who were still very excited, were suppressed now. Although their leaders shouted and ordered them to row their oars, some people were still so scared that they were a little weak and couldn't work hard.

Taking this opportunity, the three fast boats immediately rushed forward for a distance.

At this time, on a blessing ship in their northeast direction, suddenly there was a sound of horns. The sound of the low horns came from the distance and reached the ears of everyone on the battlefield.

After hearing the sound of the horn, the guys on the surrounding fast paddle ship immediately became nervous, and a little leader shouted, "Shopkeeper Xiao has an order for us to speed up and stop them from escaping! If anyone doesn't obey the order, there will be no mercy!"

These Chu Cai's old men, who had just been slapped in the face, changed their faces after hearing the horn and the roar of the leaders.

(Today, I would like to thank the Nanbo Wang brothers for their reward! Thank you very much!)
