Chapter 108 Sudden

The Ming army's rocket offensive caused serious setbacks in the morale of the pirates.

The Ming people began to fight back, artillery bombarded at close range, and wood chips flew in an instant, and limbs flew everywhere.

A three-masted sailboat was overturned by the Ming army before it even reached the strings.

Another sailboat collided with the Ming army's ship.

Countless pirates rushed to the merchant ship along the hemp rope and iron chains, but before they boarded the ship, they were shot into the sea by the Ming army archers and musketeers with bows and arrows.

The pirates had relatively few firearms, which were not comparable to the Ming army in the Navy Town, let alone the Ming army in the Fubo Town, which was supplemented by the East India Company's firearms.

Pirates used bows, arrows, darts and guns to fight the enemy, which caused some casualties to the Ming army, but the pirates suffered even greater losses.

In particular, the grenadiers threw fire thunders into the pirate ship, which caused riots in pirates.

Many pirates fell directly on the deck, wailing with blood all over them.

The fire and thunder are loud, but the real power is hard to kill people.

After all, black gunpowder has limited power and it is difficult to produce effective fragments to kill the enemy. It basically relies on the explosion sound and shock waves generated by gunpowder to injure the enemy.

The deck of the pirate ship was in chaos, but the pirates in the cabin pointed a cannon at the Ming army's merchant ship and bombarded the Ming army at close range.

At this moment, several other armed Garen ships of the Ming army were also besieged by pirate warships.

Although most of the sailors did not participate in actual combat, under the supervision of the soldiers of each ship, the Ming army sailors calmed down after a period of chaos.

A Ming army armed Garen ship can carry forty-eight artillery types. Although it lacks heavy artillery more than ten pounds, close-range bombardment makes up for the shortcomings of heavy artillery.

Except for a few Black Flag Gangmasters, most of the pirate ships only carry more than ten cannons, and the firepower of a single ship is far less than that of the Ming army.

This made the pirates use a string-catching battle again, intending to climb onto the Ming army's warship and charge directly.

When the pirates were aligned with the Ming army, many pirate leaders also came to the Ming army's warships and saw the Ming army's equipment.

The Ming army did not fully configure firearms, and most of the Ming soldiers and even Xiao Wu's personal soldiers were only equipped with long swords, sword cards and spears.

Therefore, the pirates are quite confident in fighting, but they never expected that the firearm configuration of the Ming Navy in Fubo Town is far beyond that of Xiaowu Navy Town.

The pirates who had not boarded the ship were intensive firefighting from the Ming army's musketeers, and the archers' continuous targeting, so the pirates could not even board the ship for a while.

Seeing that he had more than 20 large ships could not do anything to the more than ten Ming army warships, on the contrary, there were several three-masted large sailboats that were overturned and sunk by the Ming army.

Many pirates were in a dark mood, and some pirate forces who were already tired of the domineering Black Flag Gang quietly left this sea area.

But more pirate ships quietly sailed to the periphery of the naval battle, watching the battle between two sea monsters like a group of sharks.

At this moment, the Ming army warships from Nashi Town quietly arrived. They directly inserted into the center of the Black Flag Gang and separated the Black Flag Gang's leader's ship from other pirate ships.

Some pirates who vassalized the Ming army also entered the naval battle.

The naval battle begins to heat up.

Li Tianyou's main ship rushed straight towards the Ming army's lucky ship Xiao Wu.

In the last naval battle, the Ming Navy Town blocked the three second-level battleships of Folang Jiren, causing a large lucky ship to sink in the Navy Town.

Now the only one under the Navy Town is able to be used as the main force is Xiao Wu's lucky ship.

Seeing the main ship of the Black Flag Gang rushing towards him, Xiao Wu looked cold and he calmly commanded.

Two giant sea beasts bombarded each other dozens of steps apart.

If the Ming army's red-clothed cannon was actually a 12-pound and a half-long cannon according to Western standards.

It can drive a mile or two, and the six-pound cannons are much more powerful than the nine-pound and six-pound cannons in Qifubo Town.

"The Ming people are well-trained and their artillery heads are much higher than ours. I'm afraid they will not be able to take them down for a while." Muhanvilli said in a deep voice.

Li Tianyou was also very angry. Although these Ming people were far less powerful and in numbers than those of the Spanish, they cooperated tacitly and had extremely high accuracy. Many of the large ships under their command were sunk and injured.

I originally wanted to hit him and start a hand-to-hand combat, but unexpectedly, the number of Mingren's firearms was no less than that of the red-haired ghost. Every time I approached the Ming army warships, Ming army god rockets, various muskets, bows and arrows were fired at once. Often, before I could get on, the pirates on the deck were injured and killed, and they could not even climb over the iron chain.

Looking around, many pirate ships were far away from this sea area, and Li Tianyou was furious.

"The pirates who depended on us these days have fled, and even some of the ships that we forcibly annexed have fled."

Looking at the Ming Navy who had not been annihilated for a long time, Muhanweili felt gloomy.

"No, the big ship of the red-haired ghost is here." Suddenly, a shrill cry came from the lookout whistle.

It shocked everyone present like a bolt from the blue.

"The Red-haired Ghost's ship, what's coming at this time?" Muhanweili was stunned and screamed inwardly.

Terry eventually led the Spanish fleet to the battlefield.

As early as last night when the pirates raided the Ming army camp, the Spaniards in Lavague felt something was wrong.

Until the burning flames at the mouth of the Lavag River entered the Lavag Harbour, Terry immediately led the fleet out of the harbor.

At this moment, the fleet he led had two second-level battleships, four third-level battleships and five armed merchant ships temporarily recruited.

Although the number is far inferior to that of the participating parties, both sides are large ships and carry huge heavy artillery.

When the Ming navy and the pirates were in a stalemate, General Terry, who had long been unable to hold back, finally made his debut.

Of course, he didn't really come to help Mingren, but Mingren was swallowed by a huge number of pirates.

Therefore, the Spanish fleet that broke into the battlefield immediately pointed its anger at the pirates.

When the Spanish Garen ship flying the Spanish naval flag rushed into the battlefield, the pirates collapsed in an instant.

The huge team that had already been lured by the Black Chess Gang, which was already abducted, collapsed at this moment.

The pirate forces that were hovering and swaying around the periphery dispersed.

Some pirate ships involved in the siege were blown into two pieces by the furious Spaniards with twenty-four or even thirty-two-pound cannons before they escaped.

The battle situation turned around instantly, and the pirates who had the advantage were actually overturned by the sudden Spanish fleet.

Many pirate forces who secretly rebelled with the Ming army immediately rebelled.

Follow the Ming army to attack the Black Flag Gang Pirates.

But more pirates chose to escape to the outer sea and leave this sea area.

"Take all the guns at the ship of the red-haired ghost." Li Tianyou said in a deep voice.

The Terry fleet seemed to recognize the giant ship, and for a moment, three Spanish warships rushed towards the Black Flag Gang. After a while, several ten-pound shells hit the main ship.

"The Ming people and the Folang Ji people had already planned it, and we are not able to continue fighting." Muhanweili kept dissuading.

Just now, a ten-pound shell was hit directly at a cannon site, and the huge impact directly knocked a thousand-pound cannon into the sea.

The gunners next to them were gone, leaving only a little blood.

"What are you running?" Li Tianyou laughed in anger.

"Do you think the Red-haired Ghost's ship is invincible in the world? Last time I could sink the Red-haired Ghost's warship, but I can do it today."

Suddenly a twenty-four-pound shell struck the deck and smashed a mast.

The huge mast was shattered by a sudden shell, and a huge gap was opened.

There were wailing on the deck, and several people fell in a pool of blood on the spot.

"Ah." Li Tianyou roared, and wood chips splashed everywhere. A wooden block the size of a palm directly slashed across Li Tianyou's face, and a lot of wooden slags pierced directly into his eyes.

"Hurry up the boss into the cabin and withdraw quickly."
