v2 Chapter 209： paralysis (1/2)
The Swordfish was seriously damaged in this round of artillery, but taking advantage of this opportunity, the Jackdaw on the other side finally completed the turn and got rid of the dilemma that it could only be beaten unilaterally.
The muzzle on the side of the bow had been fully opened long ago, and the gunners had their own positions. With the order of Zhang Heng, the Jackdaw finally began to fight back.
After the first two successful lootings, and more than 200 people who killed Wilton overnight after returning to Hong Kong, Jackdaw was in the limelight of Nassau for a while, which also brought subsequent recruitment. Great convenience.
As long as Zhang Heng is willing to directly expand the crew of Jackdaw to the limit of 200 people in half a day, but it does not make sense to do so. As the number of people increases, each time they go to the sea to rob each person, It will decrease. Compared with the simple increase in the number of people, Zhang Heng is more concerned about the quality of the sailors recruited.
Therefore, the threshold for recruiting Jackdaw each time will be considerably improved compared to the previous one. Now the level of the gunners on board is completely different from the first voyage. In addition, the Jackdaw itself is a warship and its firepower configuration is also It was quite outstanding. Once fired, it immediately attracted the attention of the three Spanish sailing boats opposite.
However, at this time, the Spanish commander focused his attention on the Swordfish, whose hull was badly damaged, and it was the best time to win the opponent with a rush, if at this time he gave up and let the opponent run away. It's a pity, let alone change the target, but also readjust the launch angle and distance.
Thus, the three Spanish sailing ships ignored the Jackdaw on the other side for the time being, and were ready to concentrate on the fire to win the Swordfish.
At this time, Bruker apparently noticed the opponent's tactical intentions and decisively abandoned the original plan. Although the swordfish had aimed the sideboard at the Spanish treasure ship, but did not fire the gun, but continued to full left rudder, ready Turn around and run away.
The Swordfish was very embarrassed in the previous round of fire. The hull was severely damaged and lost some of its power. Fortunately, the main mast was still there, and Brooke's strain was timely enough to complete the U-turn against the fire and rush to the next round of fire. Retreat before you arrive.
His excellent helm skills were also revealed at this time, and the three Spanish sailing ships carried out two rounds of shelling, but this time the swordfish avoided the vast majority of shells with its courageous trajectory, but the Spanish command The official response was quick, aware of the opponent's slyness, and immediately changed his strategy to adopt a cover strike.
一次 Brook's helm technology was no better this time. Four stern shells ate at the stern, but the swordfish still did not sink, and at the cost of this, he quickly distanced himself from the three Spanish sailing ships.
On the other side, the artillery fire of the Jackdaw also became more and more fierce. Zhang Heng chose a frigate as an attack target. This time, he did not retain his strength. The gunner on the ship was bombarded by the bombardment for so long. Stomach anger, immediately after receiving the command to fire
The main gunner aimed, ignited the fire line, and the gunner came out with a smooth bore. The next gunner immediately filled the next ammunition. The smoke from the muzzle permeated the sea. After two rounds of artillery, the frigate ’s deck was also a mess, the hull It was also bombarded by 24 pounds of artillery. Fortunately, they were all above the water level, and there was no danger of sinking.
后者 But the latter will not last long if this continues, the captain of the ship has begun to send a signal for help to the commander of the main ship.
The Spanish commander looked at the swaying swordfish in the distance, and there was a resentment in his eyes. The opponent was clearly at the end of the crossbow. As long as there were two more rounds of attacks, he could take down this cunning opponent and then drop it. Fighting too far against another pirate ship will wipe out the gang of horrible bandits and wipe them out.
