Chapter 148 Fight to the Death 1
The handmen continued to try to replace the front sail, but the others all entered the battle position. Several artillery on the ship were loaded again and pushed to the front of the gun door. The muzzle pointed out of the port and began to aim at the approaching Chu Cai's old ships.
A tachite gun has also been loaded and placed next to the side of the ship, which can be used at any time. * is also taken out one by one, and the lead is pulled out from the lid of the wax seal, ready to ignite at any time.
The only remaining * on the ship has also been taken from the cabin and placed on the deck, but these * will no longer be thrown on the enemy's ship, and they will be used as the last weapon on their own ship.
Lin Shouche ordered that once the food was exhausted, the last living people would ignite these *, fall on their ship, and finally burn the ship completely. Even if they die, they must not leave the ship to the enemy.
So far, this sloop is the top secret of the sea wolf. The structure and construction method of the hull are secret. Even ordinary sea wolves are not allowed to board this kind of ship without permission, otherwise they will face severe punishment.
So before these people travel, they have been told by Yu Xiaotian that once they encounter a situation where they can't escape, they must completely destroy their ship with gunpowder or oil, and must not leave it to the enemy.
Now the people on the ship are ready to completely carry out Yu Xiaotian's order. They only ignite the ship until the last moment of the battle, and at the bottom of the ship, they also left a bucket of gunpowder, waiting for the last moment to ignite and blow up the bottom of the ship and sink the ship into the sea.
Everyone squeezed their lips tightly and silently looked at the approaching enemy ships, but their artillery never sounded, watching the enemy ships approaching them.
When Lin Shouche finally checked the ammunition stock on the ship, he knew that their ship was basically running out of ammunition. There were less than two rounds of ammunition left in each gun, and only a few small Ferro cannons on the deck.
At this time, the empty Zitong has been thrown into the sea by the sailors. They would rather destroy things than leave them to Chu Cai.
A soldier bent down and picked up the short-style tusstunnel from the side of the ship, opened the machine bracket, but knelt on the deck, mounted the barrel at the shot hole on the side of the ship, and began to carefully find a suitable target on the enemy ship through the hole.
The two enemy ships that ran fast are now only 50 meters away from them. If they had been normal, they would have begun to bombard these enemy ships, but now they are still silent under Lin Shouche's orders, quietly waiting for the enemy ships to come closer.
Each soldier held a flectar and trapped an enemy on the other ship with a gate and a front sight, but they did not fire, because they knew that the distance of 50 meters was within effective range for the flectar gun in their hands, but it could not ensure accurate hit the enemy. People.
So when their ammunition was limited, they would rather put the enemy closer and fight later, and suddenly fell into a strange silence on the sea.
The performance of this "ghost ship" made Chu Cai's subordinates a little surprised. They thought that the ghost ship should have been angry with them long ago, but they didn't expect that when they were forced so close, the ghost ship with damaged sails was still unfired.
So some of Chu Cai's men became rampant, and someone suddenly shouted, "Haha! The ghosts on the 'ghost boat' were scared to pee! I guess they also understand that they can't run away today and plan to surrender!"
Some people also guessed the situation on Lin Shouche's ship and laughed and shouted, "There must be no ammunition on their ship!" Haha! How rampant they are this time! Brothers, there is nothing they can do! Haha!"
A boatman also roughly guessed the dilemma faced by the "ghost ship" at this time. He walked to the side of the ship and looked at Lin Shouche's boat with his waist crossed his waist. The rivals shouted, "Brothers, don't be afraid of them anymore!" At this time, I guess they are out of ammunition! Look at what they are rampant! Let's catch it today! After going back, the shopkeeper Xiao has something to say first, and there will definitely be a lot of rewards!
Give them a few shots first and let them taste our strength, so that we don't have to spend a lot of money for a while! Come on, shoot! Give them a few blows!"
As soon as his roar fell, the three cannons on his boat were fired and roared three times, and then the messy cannons flew to Lin Shouchu's boat.
All kinds of cannons swept the hull of the sea wolf ship like rain, and the hull crackled everywhere, but their shelling was like itching for the strong ship, at most to scare people.
However, the sea wolves on the ship are basically hidden in the starboard or cabin at this time. Only Lin Shouche stood upright in the stern and looked coldly at the enemy ships rushing over.
When several hand-handers who were repairing the sail saw the shelling, they immediately fell on the deck and were not injured. As soon as the shelling passed, they immediately began to get up and repair the sails.
The helmsman shouted, "Captain Lin, you'd better hide first!"
Lin Shouche shook his head and said, "Take your helm. Don't worry about me. I don't know they can do anything about it!" All of them! Let them get closer!"
The soldiers lying on the side of the ship operated the flint and turned their heads to look at Lin Shouche. They also admired the captain who had not been with them for a long time, so they all stabilized their mind and began to aim again.
The speed of the enemy ship rushing is not slow, and it quickly approaches a distance of 30 meters. Such a distance is basically close to the sea.
It was not until this time that Lin Shouche shouted, "Fire!"
From front to back, after hearing Lin Shouche's roar, the whole ship suddenly turned into a fire-breathing dragon. From the bow, to the two sides and even the stern artillery and * all suddenly sounded.
Under the recoil of the artillery, the hull suddenly shook violently. The flame from the muzzle licked the sea and rushed out a long distance, and the smoke suddenly permeated around the whole ship.
The smoke of large and small gunpowder rose from all over the ship. Looking at the two enemy ships rushing over, it was like being suddenly hit by a stick. The bow of one of the ships was being hit by the 12-pound short gun of the bow.
At such a close distance, the huge energy carried by the cannonball of the 12-pound gun tore open the bow of the ship like tearing the window paper. The whole bow of the ship was immediately hit with a big hole the size of a bathtub. After tearing off the bow, the shell did not consume the energy carried by the light and continued to fly forward, tight Then he successively broke through the partitions in the two layers of hull and destroyed almost all the third partitions.
The ship suddenly hit a reef while galloping. The hull shook violently, and a large amount of sea water poured directly into the hull from the cracked bow. The old men on the boat were shocked and exclaimed on the ship.
"Grandma, this ghost ship still has cannons! Who the bitch just said they were out of ammunition? Hurry back!" Some people lay on the boat and shouted in horror.
Lin Shouche clenched his fist and suddenly shook his arm, laughing and shouted, "It's a beautiful fight! Haha! Now this ship has almost half of its life left! Keep hitting me!"
Although the power of these ten flectar guns is very inconspicuous compared with the cannon, they can give full play to their accuracy advantages at a distance of 30 meters, and these soldiers have been aiming at the target for a long time, and once they are fired, they must not be underestimated.
And what else can the best target be? It was the captain of the enemy ship who was standing on the ship just now, and it was the two soldiers who aimed at the guy almost at the same time.
After opening the fire, the guy screamed and disappeared from the side of the ship in the blink of an eye. In a short time, he heard someone on the enemy ship shouting: "Liu Zhang's boat was killed! Liu Zhang's boat was killed! ......”
And * when shooting together, it was not only the man in charge of Liu who was unlucky with it. At the same time, three or four people were shot down. At this time, the two boats that were forced up were blindfolded. For a moment, they were forced to turn around quickly and try to avoid, and they were a little afraid to force them up again.
However, such a blow is only a light return for the sea wolf, because after completing this round of strikes, there is little ammunition left in the ship's artillery, and the remaining ammunition is not even enough for all the guns to complete another volley.
There are only three rounds of ammunition left for the six-pound gun and only one round of ammunition for the twelve-pound gun. In the absence of timely supply, this is also the reason for their predicament today.
After seeing that his cannon was out of ammunition, the gunner turned around and stepped on the deck and grabbed the knife and gun, and the gunner with ammunition immediately began to load for the last time.
The sudden counterattack of the sea wolf ship confused several old Chu Cailao boats surrounding them, and unconsciously slowed down the approaching speed one by one for fear that the ghost ship would be powerful again and make them the next victims, and the bow of the ship was opened with a big hole. At this time, because there was a large amount of water in the front of the ship, the bow It has begun to sink and basically lost the ability to continue to participate in the operation.
In a while, Mr. Chu Cai lost two more boats, and the boat that initially tried to stop the three sea wolf boats was too seriously because the injury was too serious. At this time, after completing the task of blocking the last sea wolf boat, it also happened because there was too much water in the hull. At this time, its belly has been upside down on the sea, revealing the mottled bottom of the ship full of sea creatures.
And those guys on the ship have already jumped off the sea and tried their best to swim to the nearby friend ship.
(Acute enteritis is coming fiercely, but it also goes quickly. I feel good today. Thank you for the reward of the two brothers Wang Nanbo and Hu Lu purring!)
