"Just five cannons, this is also considered a warship, which makes our Spanish warship commander laugh out loud! Tell them that if they don't surrender, they won't leave any living!" Seeing that his opponent had only five cannons, he screamed proudly, but he felt a little panicked for no reason. The caliber of the five cannons seemed to be a bit too large. They are sloops!

The second deputy ran away with a frown, allowing the sailors to push the rusty cannons to the side of the ship. It seemed that the number of cannons on their own was higher than that of the opponent, but the opponent's gun barrel was obviously much thicker! Those large-caliber cannons were clearly equipped on large warships. How could they put such a large cannon on a small boat?! If you know that the other ship also needs to fire the cannons, wouldn't they have no place? Could they put the cannons on one side? The other side is empty? It's really strange? Maybe the other party is bluffing?

"Let the boat go over, this range is not enough!" Chavez shouted loudly, and the helmsman nervously controlled the ship and turned around.

Jack shouted: "Captains, those bunny guys are in range! Do you want to fire?"

Katerina held up her telescope and ordered loudly: "When they were waiting for them to get closer, the ship was full of short-barrel cannons and had no power."

"Ah! Yes! They are all short-tube little Canon who is not far from urinating, and they are closer to urinating than girls..." The red cloth strip forgot that he was talking to Katerina's girl, and he let it go, and his neck shrank so much that he swallowed the second half of the sentence.

Katerina glared at Jack the Red Cloth Strip and shouted: "Replace the second shot with a flowering bullet, don't leave the ship!"

Jack even claimed that he was, and turned his head and shouted fiercely to the gunner behind him: "Did you hear it? Everyone cheer me up and let the unsightly Spanish ship taste the taste of the flowering bullet!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" Five roars, and a 17-pound large-caliber shell roared towards the pirate ship opposite.

The young second mate heard the fire of the opposite cannon and shouted: "Damn it! What a long-barrel cannon! We are not opponents, run away!" He understood that the short-barrel cannon with a maximum caliber of only 13 pounds on his ship was not as powerful as the opponent in terms of its power and range! Although he didn't know how the sloop on the opposite side installed such a large long-barrel cannon!

"Oh my god! Their shells are as big as wine barrels! They can hit Florida from Havana!" A timid gunner, looking at the roaring shells, was so scared that he shrank his neck.

Although only two shells hit the bow of the ship, because of the strong force of the warhead, the opponent's bow splint was knocked off! Even the foremast was pulled crooked by the cable! Chavez then realized that he mentioned the iron plate today. The opponent was clearly pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and now he could only pray that the opponent's speed was not as fast as his own. After all, they were sloops...

But ten minutes later, Chavez was desperate! It was obvious that everyone was in a good wind, and his two masts were covered with main sails, but he could not escape the other's sloop schooner! If his flexibility and steering power were not as good as them, that would be fine. But the sail area of ​​his ship was more than three times larger than theirs! He was caught up by a triangular schooner while the wind! Is this still reasonable?

The two-masted sailboat that was caught up was naturally not as flexible as the triangular sailboat, but the opponent's speed was too fast! He rushed to the front and before his gunner could take his place, five shells were bombarded at close range! Fortunately, the opponent did not use chain bullets, otherwise he would not be able to escape! Just when Chavez was glad, three terrible explosions sounded from the hit hull! Chavez's scalp was numb. Could it be that the cabin where he stored gunpowder was hit?

"Go and see? Is the powder barrel blown up?!" Chavez screamed, but he was shocked by the explosion and fell on the deck. The deck under his feet was actually lifted by air waves, and the hull seemed to be about to break! All the sailors were crying and crying, and they could not obey their orders. Some had even jumped into the sea to escape!

The blazing flames ignited from the hit hull. It seemed that the opponent had been kissed by the goddess of luck. He was lucky and actually hit his own gunpowder compartment. But even so, his only two barrels of black gunpowder were still under the tide, and it would not be possible to blow it like this? Could it be that the opponent's shell was cursed by the fire dragon and was so powerful?

Chavez, with a series of questions, as his two mast pirate ships sank into the sea. Before his men could untie the lifeboat on the deck, they were all blown up by the other party's second shelling. The young second mate now understood that it was not that the gunpowder in his cabin was hit, because even if the captain's two barrels of damp gunpowder exploded, they would not have such great power. But the opponent's shells would really explode! God, are these guys' shells made of the bones of the flame demon...

…………

Although you have seen the power of this flowering bullet during test firing before, it has never been used during naval battles. I didn’t expect that for the first time today, I only bombarded two rounds at close range, and there were less than six flowering bullets. When I hit the opponent’s hull, I actually sank the opponent’s ship! And everyone found that even if the opponent’s ship was not sunk, it would be burned by the fire caused by the explosion of the flowering bullet!

Zhang Fan's Green Wing was not surprised because they had seen the 380mm main artillery shells of the Japanese King Kong-class battleship in the rain of bullets during World War II! That shot was like a sea of ​​fire! This two-masted sailboat was not enough for a secondary artillery shell of the King Kong-class battleship. There were six more shells, so where did it go?

After removing this indescribable pirate ship, the crew members were full of confidence. Even the sailors who pushed the machinery at the bottom cabin and turned the propeller thruster became even more vigorous. At this time, the wind was facing the road and the sea current was smooth. The speed of the fast ship actually reached 27 knots! That speed surprised Zhang Fan's Green Wings. It seemed that the high morale would also affect the speed of the ship!

Under the leadership of the old alcoholic, the ships were moored at a Spanish colonial port on the west coast of Florida. This was the first colonial port of Charlotte that the Spanish established in North America. The colony was established for more than fifty years since the current era. Zhang Fan Green Wings, Caterina and Captain Hook left most of the crew at the port to guard the ships. He only took a few black entourages and carried enough supplies for half a month, and then headed east from the colonial port town to Lake Okeechobee in Florida.

"Fifty years ago, the Spanish Juan Ponce de Leon came here to find the "Fourth of Youth", but I think he was looking for the wrong direction and went north of Tampa Bay. Of course, he returned empty-handed. But ten years later, he came again. This time he found the right direction, near Port Charlotte, but he still turned empty-handed..." The one-eyed old alcoholic's wide-edged sailor hat lowered the brim and covered the blind eye. He carried a bottle of rum, holding a smooth and shiny cane, and limped as he walked.

"This is because the Spaniards are too timid. After encountering the obstruction of the Indians, they dare not go deeper. But they cannot blame them, because the Indians are very cunning. The poisonous arrows they shot through your eyes two miles away! Juan Ponce de Leon was shot to death by them! Poor guy, he is only more than a hundred miles away from the 'Fourth of Youth'..."

Katerina asked, "So have the 'Fourth of Youth' been found? I heard that you were close to the 'Fourth of Youth', why didn't you cure your legs and eyes? And you are not young..."

The old alcoholic drank a sip of wine, narrowed his eyes, as if he was trapped in a meeting of some kind, "Maybe all those who have seen the 'Unold Spring' are dead, isn't that ridiculous? Yes... Why is this happening? Anyone who has seen the 'Unold Spring' has not come back alive except me... But I want to tell you that the 'Unold Spring' really exists. I once saw its magic with my own eyes! But the 'Unold Spring' has also been cursed, and maybe it was killed by its curse before you get its magical power!"

"Curded?" Zhang Fan's heart moved. Maybe the book demon would have any opportunities here.

"Yes, a terrible curse!" said the old drunkard exclaimed, but the creepy atmosphere he created himself frightened himself, "Ah! a terrible curse!... But I have never seen it before, I heard from the Indians..."

"The magic of the 'Understanding Spring' you mentioned was also what the Indians said?!" Captain Hook sneered. He didn't believe that there was 'Understanding Spring'.

"How do you know?" The old alcoholic was told by Captain Hook, and his face turned slightly red, but this guy couldn't tell if he drank too much rum. "Although I heard that, I am still the closest living person in the Caribbean who has ever been 'Under Old Spring'! Victor once wanted me to take him there, but I don't think he was honest about this kid. Even if he gave me a box of golden rum, I wouldn't go!"

"He is not so stupid!" Captain Hook said disdainfully. In his eyes, this old guy is just an absolute liar, and he knows nothing except cheating some wine. He has seen many such people. The so-called "Youthless Fountain" secret was probably fabricated by this old guy to cheat wine. Instead of believing in this old liar, it is better to believe in the crow. However, since Katerina wants to go, she can't feel cold to her heart. After all, she still vows to be loyal to this red-haired woman.

"You can speak Indian?" Green Wing asked suddenly.

The old drunkard raised his head proudly, "Of course, how could he take you here? Going forward, you will enter the territory of the Kalusa tribe. You must be careful..."

Zhang Fan suddenly smiled slightly and said to the old drunkard: "Can you let me see your cane? This cane reminds me of some interesting stories." He seemed to find that the slender old cane seemed to be engraved with some ancient and simple symbols, which made him feel familiar. And for a collector, these symbols inevitably touched his sensitivity to antiquities.
