【013】 Pirates? Next

(It’s a new week! I want to be on the new book list. Friends who like this book, please raise your hand and give me a vote! This is related to the fate of this book, thank you!)

This is almost an unwritten practice on the ocean since the beginning of the Age of Discovery!

However, with the continuous innovation of shipbuilding technology in recent years, the world powers represented by Britain have gained more and more control over the oceans. These "part-time" pirates have been attacked and almost extinct. However, in the cold and remote Bering Sea, this kind of pirates appeared

This kind of thing is not particularly strange.

Hong Zaimou looked at the telescope for a while, then raised his head and said: "This cruise ship has been hit by a bullet, which penetrated one side. Water began to enter the hull. The only way for the people on board to abandon the ship is to abandon the ship!" This small-scale battle

It seems to have come to an end, ending with the victory of the two 'pirate ships'.

Thunder Dragon stood aside and frowned: "Master, do we want to rescue them?"

Long Hao said: "Save? How to save? With our two Maxim Thunder Dragons, give me the order to turn the bow of the ship and avoid that side!"

Long Hao is not a compassionate saint. How can he save people with the dragon ship? Besides, who knows that the people on that cruise ship must be good people?

Long Hao thought: Anyway, it is unlikely that there are Chinese people up there. Foreigners are fighting each other and dog bites dog. Why should I get close to them?

Although Thunder Dragon was a little regretful, his reason still prevailed over his emotions. The other party had cannons, and it was indeed beyond the capabilities of his small freighter! So he obeyed the order and immediately ordered the dragon ship to turn and avoid.

However, Long Hao wanted to leave, but the other party seemed not to let them go. A small boat rushed out from the belly of the cruise ship, cut through the water waves, and rushed towards the dragon ship quickly, and the two pirate ships soon followed.

After discovering this 'fish that slipped through the net', they all changed their course and followed closely.

"Oh no, the other party's speed is very fast. If this continues, we will be overtaken in an hour at most!" the speed tester began to yell.

You must be sick, don’t drag me with you even if you want to die! Of course Long Hao saw the boat rushing out of the belly of the cruise ship, and his face turned dark: Just be obedient and be caught by the pirates, we are just passing by, don’t think about anything

Mix it up!

The speed of the small boat is about 10 knots, and the speed of the pirate freighter chasing after it is about the same. In comparison, the speed of the dragon ship is about 6 knots, which is a slow speed!

Long Hao shouted flatly: "Thunder Dragon, give them a signal and say that we are just trying to make soy sauce... just say that we are a neutral party and don't want to get involved in their grudges!"

"yes!"

Thunder Dragon handed down the order, but the report came back immediately from the white iron pipe: "Sir, the boat said it was asking for our help in the name of the Spanish Royal Family, but the two freighters did not reply, but the speed did not slow down.

The muzzle of the gun has also turned towards us!"

"Do it!" Zhou Bodang hammered the table, his face was red, and he didn't know whether he was angry or excited: "They want to kill people and silence them!"

If the news of robbing the Spanish royal family's cruise ship leaks out, the two cargo ships will be endlessly hunted by the Spanish navy! Therefore, they will not let go of the fleeing boat, let alone the 'passing' dragon ship!

Long Hao doesn't want to cause trouble, but that doesn't mean he's afraid of trouble: Is your sister capable of having a cannon?

Long Hao slapped the control console and said fiercely: "Give me the order, all dragon scales are present, enter the first level of combat readiness, and prepare to fight!"

As soon as the order to fight was given, the entire dragon ship quickly took action. The special training in the past few days had an effect. The old, weak, women and children entered the cargo hold to escape in an orderly manner, while the other young and strong people were all assigned a Mauser 1888——

This is currently the most mainstream rifle in the world, staring at the enemy ships speeding on the sea!

The small boat claiming to be the Spanish royal family was extremely fast, but it seemed to have no weapons on board. It was being chased by two menacing pirate cargo ships. It ran with its head down, and water jets several people high were splashed behind its butt from time to time!

The 40mm cannon can penetrate even a thousand-ton cruise ship. If this escaping boat is hit by one shot, it will be declared to have sunk to the bottom!

Time passed quickly in the tense atmosphere. Less than half an hour later, the distance between the three ships and the dragon ship was less than 1 nautical mile. The red Spanish flag on the small ship faced the sea breeze and was still vivid in my mind.

!

Long Hao emerged from the bilge of the deck sweating profusely, and was immediately helped up by Yuan'er and Hong Xiangling who had been waiting for a long time. Zhou Bodang asked in surprise: "Master, are you sure these small wooden barrels can be used?"

Get the big one?"

The huge Spanish cruise ship in the distance has been slowly sinking, and half of the hull has been submerged in the sea water. The "big guy" Zhou Bodang is referring to now is naturally the pirate cargo ship of more than 800 tons!

Long Hao's face turned pale, and the golden light in his hand slowly faded away. He took a breath and nodded: "That's right, as long as the diving brothers can deliver these barrels to the bottom of the freighter, let's wait and see.

What a great show about the ship sinking!”

The dragon ship only has a displacement of 350 tons. Compared with the opponent's two modified freighters, it is pitifully small. There is basically no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation. Therefore, Long Hao had no choice but to use the gold source again. These small wooden barrels contained metal that could

A liquid that dissolves quickly! However, after doing this, Jinyuan's energy number is only a pitiful 5 kwa, and it can basically no longer be used!

Xie Zhi stood nearby, patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, young master, our brothers are all very good at water, and there will be no problem if we hold our breath for 3 minutes!" The Dragon Scale team members carrying small wooden barrels are all disciples of Hong Zaimo, who have been with us all year round.

After training in the Beiyang Navy, apart from anything else, his underwater skills are top notch!

Not to mention that the dragon ship was preparing for battle, on top of the "big guy" in Zhou Bodang's words, a burly foreigner with blond hair and fierce eyes was staring fiercely at the small boat that was escaping crazily more than a hundred meters ahead, saying

: "Have the people on the cruise checked it? Are you sure the target is on this small steamer?"

Next to him was a thin "strategist" with a tall nose and deep eyes. He reported: "Mozart, the target is definitely on that steamer. The employer told us to capture him alive. If the target dies,

We don’t have to go back to France alive!”

The two people talked in French. These two pirate freighters seemed to belong to the French!

Mozart sighed: "What a demanding mission! If it weren't for the ten thousand pounds, I wouldn't want to take the risk of being discovered by the British navy and rob a Spanish cruise ship here!"

The strategist's name was Llorente. He nodded and said: "Yes, ten thousand pounds is enough for us to run ocean freight for a year! Take a risk and make a lot of money. Wealth can be gained through risk!"

Mozart asked: "By the way, how many cannonballs are there? Save it for me, there is a small Swedish freighter over there!"

Llorente was silent for a while and said dryly: "This... there are five more shots!"

Mozart was shocked when he heard this, and blurted out: "There are 50 rounds of artillery shells, 1,000 pounds, and you only gave me 5 rounds? What a waste of you, oh, I want to throw those gunners to

Feed the fish in the sea!”

These two cargo ships, the larger one is called 'Chanel' and the smaller one is called 'Hermès'. Only the Chanel where Mozart was on was secretly equipped with three 40mm cannons. In the process of attacking the Spanish cruise ship with all its strength, I don't know if it was

The gunner was too nervous or too excited. Although he sank the cruise ship, he also used 90% of the cannonballs!

It’s 20 pounds per shot! I can’t help but feel Mozart’s heartache!

Llorente advised: "Forget it, we still have more than ten guns, and I don't think there will be any resistance from the Swedish boat! Didn't you see that when they saw us, they were as scared as mice seeing cats?

Do we have to turn around and run away?”

Mozart was full of murderous intent and said ferociously: "You can't escape even if you want. This deal cannot leave anyone alive! This Swedish ship will be sunk together with two cannonballs later!"

Long Hao still didn't know that his dragon ship had been sentenced to death in Mozart's words. Accompanied by Yuan'er and Xiang Ling, he returned to the captain's room and asked Lei Long with a smile: "How is it? The personnel have been arranged in place, right?

It's your first battle, are you nervous?"

"Everything is arranged according to the instructions of the young master. It depends on whether the other party will be fooled!" Thunder Dragon took a deep breath, then shook his head. It would be a lie to say that he is not nervous. No matter how calm he is, in the final analysis, he is just

It is impossible for a young Beiyang reserve soldier not to feel his heart speed up when he encounters actual combat. He is still facing a weak enemy against a strong one.

"Okay, let me tell you, the other side is a pirate who eats people without spitting out their bones. Even if we surrender, the other side will not leave anyone alive!" Long Hao waved his arm and said coldly: "So we must fight to the end. Only the enemy will die.

Only with light can we survive! Well, are the white flags ready?"

A Dragon Scale team member replied: "I'm reporting to you, Master, it's ready. It was made on the fly using bedsheets!"

Long Hao nodded, with a strange and cunning smile on his face: "Okay, hang up the mast and tell the foreigners that we surrender!"

The white flag was quickly hoisted on the tall mast of the dragon ship, the steam boiler in the power room also stopped, and the sea water around the bottom of the ship became calm. Obviously, knowing that it could not escape, this small freighter flying the Swedish flag
Chapter completed!
