C528 Blast the Wind Changer (1/2)
Niu Duofu and the others thought that they would be facing two ordinary pirate ship, but when they were close enough, they realized that the two boats were very unique in style and that they were both Chinese.
The Zodiac and the Roman had originally thought that it was a nosy merchant ship, but when they got closer, they realized that it was filled with armed sailors.
Between the two ships, the identity of the enemy and friend was completely made known to the world. Niu Duofu naturally knew about the war in Ryukyu.
However, the Wind Changer's route did not pass through the Ryukyu, but directly headed north to resupply from the Nine Prefectures. The most important thing was that the Wind Changer had an even more important mission.
However, they never thought that they would be unable to avoid the incoming war even if they wanted to. Sometimes, even if they wanted to, the scissor boat would just get to BoHai and meet a French battleship disguised as a pirate.
”If this group of pirates wasn't part of the regular army, I'd give you guys my eyeball …” Since when could pirates be so extravagant as to use two identical warships? ”Damn, even European pirates in the Atlantic are not so extravagant, right?”
”I am also from a foreign country. I can recognize a Frenchman's face … The brothers continued to fire, the pirates were the French pretending to be... ”
Niu Duofu's mind raced, two frigate s disguised as pirate ship s and a whole ship full of foreign faces, one after another valiant and precise battle moves, added to the fact that they had already passed Liaodong Peninsula and the waters of Jinzhou.
With all the clues gathered together, Niu Duofu immediately got his answer. ”Fuck, these two French battleship wanted to ambush our Industrial Zones, they are heading towards there …. ”The sails are full of speed, let's go inform the villagers …”
At this time, Captain Kraft, who was on the Heavenly Zither seat, woke up from the shock of the attack. He shouted loudly, ”Only the Letian Firm could afford such a good scissor boat in the Bohai Bay. This is Xiao Letian's boat, and also his soldiers … Chase after them and kill them all! ”
Captain Kraft pulled out his revolver, rushed up to the bow of the ship and gave a kick, then beat up the soldiers beside the Sea Maiden up. ”Damn things, if you didn't get these women distracted, how could we be at a disadvantage?”
”Get up, we need to work immediately, prepare the chain bomb, and attack the scissor boat's sail …” The naked soldiers let the captain kick them around and ran off to work.
As for the three sea women tied to the rope, their bodies were covered in blood as they stared at Captain Kraft hatefully, ”Lord Buddha will send you to hell …” ”The Dragon King will devour all of you …”
Kraft didn't understand what Sea Maiden was saying, but he could feel the hatred within her. ”Damn woman, you caused us to be ambushed, and you still dare to scold me?” ”Let's go to hell …”
Three gunshots rang out, and three snowflakes appeared on Hai Nü's forehead. The hostility in Captain Kraft's heart finally dissipated a little. ”Someone, throw these three piles of rotten meat into the sea …” Charge at full speed and catch up with that damned scissor boat!
The Zodiac was the unluckiest in this attack. He was the first one to be hit by the bullet, and he was the same as when the scissor boat passed by him and got hit by the torrential rain.
Roman was the first to adjust his posture, the cannon on the side had opened ten cannons, and ten cannons had already been loaded with the most primitive ammunition.
”Fire …” The order came from the cabin, and amidst the rumbling sounds of explosions, ten spinning black figures flew towards the Wind Changer while howling strangely.
Chain bombs, this was a very ancient sea battle weapon. The principle behind it was very simple. Two small shot balls were connected together by a chain and then stuffed into the barrel together.
When the impact of the gunpowder explosion sent the two shot balls flying, the two shot balls quickly formed a rotating force that was like a meat grinder, flying toward the enemy ship.
In the sails and ships era, the masts were filled with mooring cables that could easily be mixed together and destroyed by a chain bomb.
The 10 black shadows swiveled and shot towards the Wind Changer, at this time, Captain Niu Duofu who had a lot of experience had already ordered the boat to move in a zigzag pattern, in order to avoid the enemy's cannonballs.
Seven out of ten cannonballs landed in the sea, only three of them hit the sails. The huge spinning force entangled dozens of ropes together, and the sound of the ropes breaking immediately filled the air.
Once the taut rope snapped, the sudden burst of power made the rope whip in the air like an iron whip. A soldier who couldn't dodge in time was hit in the chest with the rope.
Swoosh … The soldier staggered back three steps before spitting out large mouthfuls of blood. There were also black pieces in the blood, indicating that his internal organs had been crushed.
”Be careful...” Beware of dodging... Damn it! ”Brothers, which one of you is going to tie up the rope, then tie it down with military merits …” Niu Duofu roared.
