Chapter 121 Breaking One Arm
I'm afraid this is the best way Anthony can think of at the moment, but he forgot one thing, that is, most of the speedboats in charge of his fleet are responsible for covering the big ship, but are not in their fleet at this time, but are sent to guard against the strange sapultry of the Chinese pirates.
While the fighting here is booming, not too far away, the sea wolf's flying fastboats have also begun to exchange fire with the speedboat fleets sent by the Spaniards.
As soon as the two sides fought, the Spaniards found that they had become a group of sheep that could be slaughtered arbitrarily, because they found that the samaran fastships of these Chinese pirates were some terrible opponents.
These ships are easy to sail, very flexible, and the speed is much faster than theirs. The other party has the upper hand, and the speed of the ship is more than twice that of them. After they fought, the big ship led by them did not become their main target, but the fast ship of these pirates, but Their speedboats were targeted for hunting.
The other side contained the Spanish ship with two ships, but the other four ships rushed straight to these Spanish speedboats, and the number of artillery on their ship was also quite large, the firepower was quite fierce, and the pirates were quite fierce, and they fought fiercely and accurately.
It is completely opposite to the fierce battle on the other side. Several flying fast ships of sea wolves here are completely pressing these Spanish speedboats.
Relying on their own advantages, they bombarded and directly collided. As soon as they fought, the Spaniards were looking for their teeth on the ground, and the small fleet was torn apart at once. Several speedboats were almost not held up for much time, so they were injured and sunk and sunk.
Several speedboats, with little power to fight back, were slaughtered by these sea wolf speedboats, leaving only dozens of sailors on Spanish speedboats, struggling desperately in the sea to call for help.
And these flying-shaped fastships immediately turned the bow, concentrated the firepower of the ship, and began to beat the Spanish ship.
A flying fastship is probably not the opponent of the Spanish ship, but if six flying fast ships attack the Spanish ship at the same time, the Spanish ship will completely become a tragedy.
What's more, the day before yesterday, when the ship was sent to Peace Island to rescue the Spanish infantry, it was attacked by the cannon of the Peace Island fort, and it itself had been injured. Although the carpenter on the ship repaired the hull, under such circumstances, it was only a simple repair and was not thoroughly Bottom repair.
Today, when it came with several speedboats to resist the fast ships of these Chinese pirates, it was first restrained by two enemy fast ships and engaged in artillery battles with them, and then besieged by all enemy ships. The artillery fire of these enemy ships was also very fierce. After approaching, they shelled them repeatedly.
The Spanish ship itself is not a professional gunboat, but an armed merchant ship. There are only more than ten guns on the ship, and the firepower is not very strong. When it was besieged by six sea wolves' flying fastboats, it was hit without any power to fight back in a blink of an eye.
Although the artillery on their ship also fought back, after a rapid artillery battle, the ship's artillery was hoarse, the Spanish sailors on the ship also suffered heavy casualties, the sails were cut off a lot, and a mast was even hit a big gap, which was almost broken directly.
left a boat to look at the captured Spanish armed cargo ship, and the remaining flying fast ships put down two sampan, began to salvage the Spanish sailors who fell into the water at sea, escorted them to the Spanish ship for the time being, and then dragged them back. In Chicken Cage Bay.
The rest of the flying fastships immediately began to turn to the direction and rushed to the main battlefield.
It was not until this time that Anthony noticed the condition of the speedboats he sent in the distance. When he found that the speedboat and the armed cargo ship were completely destroyed, his heart suddenly sank.
It was not until this time that he realized that he was afraid that he could not win the battle today. After losing these speedboats, his fleet lost a minimum of cover. Although their ships had strong firepower, the hungry tigers could not withstand the wolves. What's more, these pirates were so high fighting spirit and could not easily repel them.
If he continues to fight, the situation will be very dangerous. Once they fall into the siege, they will lose their advantage and become slaughtered sheep.
Just under his order, the fleet has begun to turn to attack the fleet of pirates. Now the two sides have begun to be entangled. He also saw many small boats in the enemy ships and began to sail out. Many pirates in these boats are rowing or rowing, quickly larger ships. Under cover, he rushed at them.
Although he didn't see a lot of firewood and grass on these boats, which didn't look like fireboats, he didn't dare to take it too lightly and quickly ordered the boats to find a way to kill these boats and not let them stick to them.
But it was too late to make this decision. At this time, the two sides had begun to be entangled, and the artillery battle was still continuing. The distance had been close to dozens of yards, and even some boats were about to stick to their ship.
Once the boat enters within dozens of yards, it enters the dead corner of the cannon of the big ship. If you want to blow it off with a cannon, it is impossible. You can only use the small cannon at the side of the ship to block it. In addition, you can only rely on their fire rope guns and some burning objects to attack these boats.
Of course, there were also slower boats, which had not yet been attached. The Spanish sailors immediately realized the threat of these boats to them, and quickly adjusted their guns to block them and bombarded them with scattered bombs.
And the sea wolves on these boats erected a wooden shield on the ship and pulled up wooden baffles on the side of the ship to cover the sailors on the ship.
* It was difficult to hit the sailors on these ships. The scattered shells of the cannon caused them great casualties. Immediately, four or five small boats were shot and sank in the sea. The sea wolves on the ship also suffered heavy casualties. The sea water was quickly dyed red, and a large number of shipwreck wood chips floated on the water and Some bodies and some of the injured struggled in the sea and swam to their own ships nearby.
But at this time, the sea wolf people were red-eyed and rushed forward regardless of the casualties. Dozens of ships desperately began to besiege these Spanish ships.
Several speedboats remained in the Spanish fleet, and they also quickly blocked them desperately, but in front of the superior enemy, the resistance of these boats seemed so weak that they were destroyed one by sea wolf's artillery fire one after another, which was completely tantamount to stripping the Spaniards.
"Withdraw from the battle! I ordered all ships to turn away from the battle immediately! Don't pester them!" Anthony was completely anxious and realized that if he didn't leave, it would be a big trouble.
So the Spanish ships began to turn again. The sailors on the ship climbed up the mast and began to adjust the sails and cables, and the helmsmen began to struggle to pull the pole to adjust their course.
