Chapter 59 Come with me
"Wooh!" The giant arrow shot through a wooden shield and killed the pirate behind the shield. The remaining momentum did not diminish, and then pierced the other side of the wooden shield. The bloody tip of the arrow stopped in front of the pirate whose arm had lost consciousness, only three inches away from his big eyes.
"Guard!" Cui Qian screamed harshly, and more guards rushed in front of him and raised a wooden shield on one side to form a layer of shield wall. However, the stone walls and huge crossbows from the building ship continued one after another. Every time he hit, several guards were killed. In a short time, more than a dozen guards fell in front of Cui Qian, and the cannon stone was beside him. He flew by and fell into the water, stirring up the splash, and drenched his face with water.
Cui Qian was really crazy. The powerful lethality of the ship instead provoked his killing. He ordered the frightened sailors to shake the ship under the ship, avoid the attack of the Thunderbolt and the giant crossbow, enter the corner of sight, and then climbed a soft ladder and climbed the boat.
On the building ship, hundreds of pirates and officers and soldiers are fighting. The officers and soldiers are well-equipped and advance and retreat in an orderly manner, while the pirates are in a large number of people and are not afraid of death. The two sides are in a group. You come and go, and the deck will soon bleed into a river.
"Kill them!" Cui Qian looked at the roaring crossbow cars and Thunderbolt cannons, as well as the undulating rackets, and his forehead was numb. Oh, my God, today is really a big life. It's a strong crossbow, a stone ball, and a big wooden pillar. No matter which one, it can kill himself, but he actually escaped several times, except for the wood chips on his face. The thorn was dripping with blood, and there was no major injury.
If you don't die in a great disaster, you will be blessed. Cui Qian suddenly got excited. God doesn't want me to die. What can you do to me? God is destined to come today to send me a better building boat. You broke a building boat, but you sent me a better building boat.
"Kill them--" Cui Qian drew his knife and shouted, raised his shield to open a halberd. The long knife roared down, and killed an officer and soldier in front of him. The long knife cut it horizontally and cut it on the neck of another officer and soldier. He dragged it hard, and the blood gushed.
Smelling the hot blood, Cui Qian shuddered all over. Suddenly, he found the feeling of killing into the pirate village alone. His whole body was full of indescribable rage. He rushed into the battle group, roared like thunder, and beheaded three people in a row. He was unstoppable.
"Vertical." Yuehai saw the rampaging Cui Qian and smiled bitterly. Today is really evil. For another ordinary person, I'm afraid he has died several times, but this Cui Qian's life is really hard. Not only is it okay, but he has also been killed. Seeing that there are more and more pirates, the officers and soldiers are about to collapse, and the crossbowmen, gunners and clapping hands can no longer do it normally. The combat strength of the tower ship is close to total loss. If it goes on, the tower will inevitably change hands. He no longer hesitates and waved his hand: "Pul the oil."
Cui Qian, who started to kill, was rushing left and right in the group of officers and soldiers. He was inexplicably excited. As long as he killed the officers and soldiers in front of him, the powerful building ship would fall into his hand. Just as he was getting closer and closer to success, the flying cabin door on the second floor suddenly opened, and more than a dozen clay pots flew out one after another, several times in succession. It rang, hit the deck, cracked into pieces, and immediately overflowed with oil. Cui Qian looked at the oil on the ground and smelled the fragrance of oil. He was a little confused for a moment. How could there be oil at this time? However, when he saw the fire fold in Yuehai's hand, his brain buzzed. Without saying a word, he turned his head and ran, jumped over the half-highboard and jumped into the sea.
A fire fold was thrown across the sea. With a "coax", a string of flames rushed up and quickly spread on the deck, including all the officers and soldiers and pirates who were fighting. Both officers and soldiers and pirates were stunned. They forgot to fight and threw the weapons in their hands. Some slapped the flames on their bodies, and some rushed away the people in front of them, rushed to the side, turned over and jumped into the sea.
"Madman!" Cui Qian, who showed his head from the water, looked at the raging deck and shuddered.
"Would you like my boat? In the next life." Yue Hai gritted his teeth and sneered, and waved his hand: "Open the cabin, everyone jump into the sea, and ask for a way to live."
"General, you can also jump." Li Nong's face was pale, and his legs trembled.
"I don't jump." Yuehai was very depressed, and there was a strong unwillingness in his eyes: "Such a careful plan did not succeed in one blow. It's not my fault. God doesn't want me to succeed in crossing the sea. First of all, I was defeated by the king of pirates in the East China Sea. Do I have to be a prisoner of the king of pirates in the South China Sea? A man can't live a lifetime. He can't be so cowardly.
"General..." Li Nong cried bitterly.
"Howling, a man bleeds without tears." Yuehai shouted angrily, "It's a man. Follow me to kill the thief. There can't be a pirate's body on my ship."
"Oh." Li Nong answered loudly with a crying voice. He raised his head and looked at Yuehai with tears in his eyes. Just as he was about to express a few words of determination, he suddenly opened his eyes wide, and a look of surprise flashed in his tears. Yue Hai was furious and was about to beat him when someone next to him shouted: "General, it's the reinforcements, it's General Fubo..."
When I turned my head across the sea, I saw two red smokes on the east side of the sea, between the blue sea and sky.
Yue Hai only felt a burst of numbness rushing straight to his forehead. He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly woke up. He rushed to the drummer, grabbed the drum and beat the drum hard.
"Don-Dun-Dun-Dun..."
"The reinforcements are coming..." Li Nong was so excited that his voice changed. He ran wildly on the deck and roared fiercely. A personal guard touched out the signal tube with trembling hands and pulled it twice before pulling off the seal on it, but he couldn't find the fire fold. He rushed to the fire on the deck, lit the signal tube, and raised it high.
"Wh--" A spark rushed into the sky, and a "pop" burst into a red fog in the air.
"Here comes the reinforcements, accelerate, accelerate." The sailor under the deck did not know that there was a fire on it. He only heard the excited roar of his companions. Suddenly, he gained strength and worked together to help the wheel. Sixteen paddles stirred the sea water, squeezed the dense pirate ship next to it away again and started slowly. Although they were slow, the power brought by the huge volume could not be underestimated. One pirate ship after another was squeezed out by them and pressed into the water. The pirates rowed the boat hard and cut the board with the weapons in their hands, but they could not stop the boat from starting slowly and resolutely. They were like a group of grasshoppers surrounding a beet. Although the ant tried his best, he still couldn't stop the Beetle from escaping.
"Water absorption and fire extinguishing." The officers and soldiers who escaped from death were full of energy. They used the rain of arrows shot by the pirates, shook the water dragons on the ship, sucked up the sea water, and washed the oil on the deck. The burning oil was washed to the side of theboard and flowed down the drain hole. The pirates who still tried to climb up before they knew the situation on the ship were drenched. The pirates looked at the flowing fire in horror and no longer had time to climb and jumped into the sea one by one. After a while of washing, the officers and soldiers dug out the sand from the prepared sandbox to put out the remnants of the fire.
Cui Qian looked at everything in front of him, and his face was like dead ashes. Although he didn't see the signal in the distance, he knew that the officers and soldiers whose morale had collapsed suddenly died, and the reinforcements must have come.
Is it a failure, or just falling into a bigger trap? Cui Qian's heart is cold.
Wei Jing escaped less than 20 miles with the fleet and met Sun Shao, who was ambushed here. Sun Shao smiled as soon as he saw him: "Isn't it tense all the way?"
Wei Jing did not smile. He was furious and glared at Sun Shao: "The general is so leisurely. He has arrived, but he hides here and let us be chased by pirates. In order to delay the time of the pirates, General Yue threw out his life and went to attack Cui Qian in a single boat. Now he still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.
When Sun Shao heard this, his face suddenly changed. He didn't care about fighting with Wei Jing. When he asked about the situation, he immediately set out with five building ships and more than 80 battleships. As early as a day ago, he got the news of them crossing the sea and chose the place of ambush according to their speed. He is not worried about the safety of Yuehai. He had already told Yuehai that if the pirates catch up, you can throw down the merchant ship and run away, and then take it back from Cui Qian. Unexpectedly, Yuehai didn't listen to him. For the sake of the merchant ship, he went to fight with Cui Qian alone.
He was annoyed and regretful that if Yuehai died because of this, the loss would be great. Not only will the secret weapons on the building ship be exposed, but the general who knows the naval battle of Yuehai died, which was the biggest loss. His men now have the strongest ability to cross the sea, but his strength is the weakest, and he has not yet shown his power.
Sun Shao was afraid that he would not be able to support crossing the sea for too long. While rushing on the way, he kept making signals and searching with his own eyes. When he saw the chaotic sea, he was very nervous, because the building ship crossing the sea was surrounded by pirates, and it was obviously encircled and bad luck.
Fortunately, at this time, he saw the red smoke."Rand up!" Sun Shao roared excitedly.
Su's thick legs patted the railing and said calmly, "I owed him a favor last time. This time I made up for him, so that every time I saw him, I would blow my beard and stare. Brothers, add fuel and let Cui Qian see who is the real king of pirates.
The pirates from the East China Sea laughed, shouted in unison, shook the ship fast, and rushed to the pirates first.
"Dog, do you want to take my credit?" Chen Hai turned his eyes, drew his knife and shouted, "Hurry up, don't let the pirates compare. We are the general's subordinates."
"Whose subordinate are you?" Sun Shaofei kicked Chen Hai's buttocks, kicked him forward two steps and almost fell down.
Chen Hai was negligent and ran away from Cui Wu, causing Sun Shaoruyi's calculation to fail. In anger, Sun Shao asked Shen Xuan to take over his position, took over his rank of lieutenant, and was demoted to a personal guard. Chen Hai hated Cui Wu to the bone. This time, he gritted his teeth and wanted to make contributions so that Sun Shao could return his captain to him again. He was anxious and unscrupulous, and was caught by Sun Shao. He didn't dare to refute, and quickly smiled and said, "Of course, it's General Fubo's subordinates, General Fubo's subordinates."
"Ji Zi, listen to me carefully. Next time I say something wrong, I will cut your donkey's ear." Sun Shao laughed and scolded.
In the laughter and scolding, five building ships and more than 80 battleships fiercely cut into the pirates in a charging formation, starting with the attack of the strong crossbow and Thunderbolt cannon on the building ship, opening the prelude to the bloody massacre. Cui Qian's only tower ship was destroyed by a suicide attack across the sea, leaving only 100 medium-sized warships and nearly 1,000 small boats. Although there were many of these ships, everything seemed so weak in front of the officers and soldiers with five tower ships as the main force.
The building ships rampaged and oversized the panicked pirates one by one. The flying cannon stones and crossbows attacked the pirates in the distance. The rising and falling rods overturned and sank the pirate ships nearby. Then the fighting ship that followed the pirates once again bullied the pirates who had just been ** by the building ship. They relied on themselves. The speed was fast, quite unreasonable and directly hit it. It beat the pirates unspeakably, hit them, couldn't catch up, and couldn't escape. Cui Qian's direct strength, who had always been used to playing with it, suffered two tramples on the sailor ship within an hour, and suffered a heavy loss. In less than half an hour, he was hit by 70. Falling, the formation is in chaos.
The sailor with a good blow was powerful, and his morale was high. He drove at full power and rushed into the pirate fleet behind him.
Although there are many pirate ships, they can't get any advantage in front of well-equipped officers and soldiers. Their small boats of 20 or 30 people are not rivals at all, let alone building ships. After witnessing the scene of Cui Qian's fleet, mainly medium-sized battleships, being defeated by the sailors, they have lost. After the fighting spirit, they saw the sailors rushing up. After a short chance, someone began to escape. At first, it was a boat, then two or three, then ten, twenty... As soon as morale fell, the pirates who had gathered together for wealth collapsed. They no longer considered Cui Qian's life or death and turned around. Escape in all directions, whether it is the rolling coast or the endless sea in front of them, all they think about now is to escape from the wolf-like sailor.
At this time, Cui Qian couldn't take care of them. He was entangled by Sun Shao and Su's thick legs. The two buildings turned around and used their huge volume to block the pirates who tried to rescue Cui Qian. Only Cui Qian and two battleships and more than a dozen small boats were surrounded in the circle, with Thunderbolt cannons and clapping poles on the sideboard. It didn't take long for Cui Qian to be alone.
Cui Qian stood in the bow of the only remaining battleship. On the sea next to him were layers of broken boards. Countless pirates floated in the water, some alive and more dead. Under the strong attack of the building ship, these people had little chance of survival. Cui Qian couldn't see what was going on with the others, but he could imagine that a building boat across the sea had caused so much damage. Now there are five ships, and the pirates are definitely not opponents. Moreover, he also saw that Sun Shao was mainly aimed at him this time. Among the five buildings, there were two of his men. The battleships that he was once proud of were very weak under Sun Shao's attack. The feeling of having a big advantage in front of other pirates disappeared, just like a man who was used to bullying a good wife. The female hooligan now met a more powerful hooligan, and she was beaten to death in a blink of an eye.
Cui Qian's heart is like ashes. Since the day he was a pirate, he has thought about countless ways to die, but he has never thought about how to die like today. It's too cowardly. What kind of pirate king is he? If you are bullied like this, you don't have the face to call the king of pirates. The South China Sea is no longer his South China Sea. What if he can escape? The Zongzhai was lost, the old Zhai was lost, and the wealth accumulated for decades has now become Sun Shao's trophy, allowing him to cross the South China Sea, and countless pirates have also lost their possessions in this naval battle.
He is a poor man now.
Two months ago, he was still majestic, and even the scholar's family had to give three points of face to the king of pirates.
It's too fast, as fast as he suddenly rose as the king of pirates a few years ago, no, faster than that.
Cui Qian sighed, threw away the scabbard, put the knife across his neck, looked up at Sun Shao, looked at the cross of the sea that almost burned himself to death, and smiled miserably: "You won."
"Hop down." Sun Shao stretched out his hand and stopped Cui Qian, who was about to kill himself. He fell on the railing and looked at Cui Qian with a smile, like a cat teasing a mouse: "Are you really going to die?"
"What if you don't die?" Cui Qian looked at Sun Shao contemptuously: "Can you still let me go?"
"Of course not." Sun Shao shook his head without giving face: "But you can't die."
"Do you want me to be your dog?" Cui Qian spit: "Do you think I'm a shameless rat with Su's thick legs?"
Su's thick legs were on fire. He pulled the bow and arrow, aiming at Cui Qian and was about to shoot. Cui Qian was not afraid and glared at Su's thick legs. Sun Shao waved his hand, indicating that Su's thick legs should be a little dry. You don't want to surrender, and I don't want to force you. Let's make a deal. Give me that chart, and I can give you a way to live.
"The chart?" Cui Qian was shocked.
"Yes, it's the chart with Daqin and Tianzhu." Sun Shao lay under the railing and swayed his legs. It was not like two times, but as if he had met a good friend in the street and alley, chatting leisurely. I'm not as hopeless as you. I'm coveting in the South China Sea to dominate and bully these merchant ships. I'm going to the sea to bully Daqin, Tianzhu and so on, but I don't have a chart now. I can draw it myself. I think it's troublesome. I heard that you have a chart there, so I want to make a deal with you.
"And." Cui Qian sneered: "Are you dreaming of bullying Daqin and Tianzhu? Do you know how far Daqin is?"
"This is the difference in vision." Sun Shao was not angry. He slowly pointed to Cui Qian and his nose: "So you will always be a useless little pirate, but I can become the biggest pirate in the world. This is called the king of pirates. You can't do it."
Cui Qian was arrogant, but this time he met a more awesome one. This boy was clearly an official, but he not only wanted to be the king of pirates, but also the king of pirates in the world, which was much more than his dream. He was so angry that he couldn't even commit suicide. The long knife pointed to Sun Shao and shouted, "You dream. If you want the chart, you can find it yourself. Don't take it from me. I'd rather take the picture to hell than give it to you.
"That's non-negotiable." Sun Shao clapped his hands regretfully and waved his hand. A burst of crying came, and more than a dozen women and children were pushed to the side of the boat. Cui Qian looked at it and was dumbfounded. These were all his family members. The white hair was his old mother. It was his wife and concubine who were so scared that they were pale. It was his son and daughter who cried so much that their little face was spent. Cui Qian, you die. I'll find it slowly. Anyway, I have your Zongzhai now. Don't worry, I occupied your general village and returned your favor so that you wouldn't be alone on Huangquan Road. After you die, I will ask them to bury you. Take a closer look. Is there anything missing? If there is one missing, I'll make it up for you when I go back.
"Beast, I'm going to kill you." Cui Qian was so angry that he bit the knife in his mouth and reached out to row, but the fighting ship could not be rowed by one person. He took the boss's strength, but the ship just shook.
"Oh, you can't wait? Are you still worried about me? Why don't I send them away first, and then you die?" Sun Shao waved his hand, and the two soldiers rushed up, dragged Cui Qian's mother to the side, raised the ring knife high, and wanted to cut it.
"Son--" Cui Qian's mother struggled in vain and collapsed to the ground.
"Husband--"
"Aweng--"
Crying and shouting one after another, like a heavy hammer hitting Cui Qian's heart fiercely. Cui Qian burst into tears, knelt down on the boat, lay on the ground, and cried bitterly: "I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you--"
"And." Sun Shao made a long voice and waved his hand: "Isn't it over earlier? Come on, invite the old lady back and wait for her.
... "You are so cruel that you burn a boat to play [***]?" Sun Shaohu looked at the cross of the sea with a cold face. Yuehai was full of shame, bowed his head and hesitated for a moment before saying awkwardly, "I'm afraid that the ship will fall into the hands of pirates. In the future..."
"I know what you mean, but why don't you follow my plan?" Sun Shao interrupted him and said unhappily, "I have planned to ambush him in front of him. You are really a hero. One ship fights 20,000 pirates alone. You are not afraid of death. Do you want to take all your brothers to the death?
"General." Yuehai stubbornly raised his head, met Sun Shao's surprised eyes, and said calmly, "Since you have become a sailor, you have to prepare for death, but we are escorting the merchant ship. If we send the merchant ship to the pirates like this, how can we feel at ease?"
"Hey, are you still stingy?" Sun Shao laughed angrily at him, rushed to Yuehai, pointed to his nose and scolded, "To be honest with me, have you ever cared about the life or death of a merchant ship before? Did you want to run away by leaving me last time? Have you ever wavered this time? Do you have it? Do you have it?
He blushed across the sea and smiled dryly: "Yes."
"That's it. What kind of saint are you pretending to be with me now?"
"Actually, if it hadn't been for Lord Wei, I would have run away." Yuehai took a look at Wei Jing, who was sitting beside him with a calm face, and was very grateful. He heard that Wei Jing had collided with Sun Shao for him. Although Sun Shao did not blame him now, who knew whether he would deal with him in the future. He heard that Sun Shao was not a troublemaker. Don't look at him smiling all day long.
"Lord Wei is so eloquent. In a word, I almost broke a general." Sun Shao turned his head and looked at Wei Jing's teeth and smiled, "You owe me a favor. How are you going to pay it back?"
