Shaolin Bajue

Chapter 669 Pirates
Seeing her, Bai Yiyi asked strangely, "Brother Lei Hai, what's going on?"

Lei Hai's face was gloomy, and he couldn't explain clearly to her for a while, but said in a deep voice: "I never thought that there are such artillery pieces among the pirates." , It is very difficult to hit so far, how can the opponent's artillery hit so far?Could it be that the opponent has a new type of artillery?Where did this cannon come from?

According to Lei Hai's experience for many years, at present, this dynasty has not produced a cannon that can shoot so far.However, he has a way to deal with it.

I saw that he quickly ordered the four officers and soldiers to adjust the general gun at the bow and do all the firing work. Since the artillery at that time was not as developed as it is now, this work took a lot of time. some time.

Just as the general's cannon was about to be fired, another cannon sound came from the sea, a cannonball flew towards it, and a Haicang boat was hit straight on. All the martial arts figures could only watch helplessly, they didn't know what the cannonball was How powerful is it, of course I dare not risk myself.

The general named Chang Wanke was shocked and angry, standing on the bow of the boat, he kept urging: "Hurry up, hurry up."

Fang Jianming glanced around and asked, "Don't we have artillery that can move this far?"

Lei Hai hadn't spoken yet, only to hear someone hum, and said: "It's not that I said that the imperial court is wrong. The artillery that can hit such a long distance has not been manufactured in this dynasty. If our warships don't catch up as soon as possible, We all have to go to sea and feed the fish."

Everyone turned their faces away, only to see that the speaker was Ma He.

Lei Hai said solemnly: "Brother Ma, don't let other people's ambition destroy your prestige. The general cannon I made is no worse than the other party's cannon."

Ma He sighed: "It's not like I haven't seen this kind of artillery you made before. It's a pity, it's a pity..." As he spoke, he shook his head, looking a little disappointed.

Fang Jianming was about to ask him something, Ma He's expression changed, and he said, "Oh...not good, this thing must not be lost." He turned around and left the cabin.

Lei Hai smiled wryly, and ordered the officers and soldiers to move the general cannon placed at the stern to the bow as well.

At this time, the third cannon shot came, and the shell landed not far from the right bow of the warship they were on. There was a loud "boom", and a jet of water rushed up, splashing everywhere.The shot missed, but everyone was shocked.

Lei Hai's face paled slightly, and he couldn't help cursing: "Damn, if I don't let you damned pirates see how powerful my general cannon is, you'll still treat them as decorations."

He fired the cannon himself and fired the first shell of the general's cannon. With a loud "boom", a small ship on the other side was hit immediately and exploded in the middle. The power of this general's cannon is really extraordinary. The ship exploded a big hole and burned. What's more, when the shell exploded, dozens of small pieces of iron were scattered. The pirates on board were either killed or seriously injured, and nearby ships were also affected.

After that general gun fired shells, Lei Hai ignored it and started to operate another general gun.

At this time, the two warships hit by shells were seriously leaking, and their speed was getting slower and slower. The officers, soldiers, and sailors all jumped into the sea and swam desperately to other ships.

Seeing this place, Baozhu said "Amitabha", suddenly flew up and landed on the surface of the sea, performed super lightness kung fu, stepped on the surface of the sea like a bird, grabbed two officers and soldiers, and returned them to the warship.

Shangguan Wucuo smiled "haha" and said, "I never thought we came here just to save people."

In the voice, his figure flickered and fell to the surface of the sea.

Fang Jianming saw it, and jumped down, Heipao was the third to jump down, and Duan Yanzong jumped down afterward.The sea is no different than any other surface of water. If you don't have extremely strong concentration, you won't be able to save yourself, let alone save people.

Therefore, except for the five of them, no one went down again, some did not dare, some were inconvenient.

On their way to save people, Lei Hai fired a second shell, hitting a small enemy ship.Although the two general cannons were powerful, their disadvantage was that the barrels couldn't hold back the heat, and they were extremely hot now. If they insisted on firing the cannonballs, it might cause serious consequences.

But compared to the pirate's artillery, both accuracy and lethality are a level higher. The only thing that can't compare with the opponent is that it can't fire continuously in a short period of time.No wonder what Ma He said just now, "It's a pity, it's a pity", turned out to be referring to this.

Five super masters went to the sea to rescue people at the same time. That kind of scene is rare in the world. Officers, soldiers and sailors were constantly thrown onto the warship. After a while, all the officers, soldiers and sailors who fell into the water were rescued, except for a few injured. Besides, no one was injured.

The five people boarded the warship, even though they had excellent lightness skills and deep inner strength, their legs were still wet by the sea water.

At this moment, they couldn't hear the other side's gunfire, and the two warships were about to be swallowed by the sea.

Lei Haixi said: "It seems that the enemy's shells are not many."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud "boom", and a shell flew towards their warship. It was too late and then quickly, when Baozhu said "Amitabha", a flash of light flashed in his eyes , using great supernatural powers, one palm and one split, a strange force immediately enveloped the cannonball, moved it several feet away, and fell into the sea, causing huge waves.

This was nothing more than a blink of an eye. When everyone realized it, they were all in a cold sweat. If he hadn't made a timely move, although the warship could not be said to be finished, its speed would definitely be greatly affected.

Ma He just ran out of the cabin, saw this scene, was stunned for a moment, and murmured: "There are such gods and men in the world, so they are all true, all true."

Chang Wanke was furious because of the loss of two warships and the addition of people on the warships, and he couldn't help but want the warships to speed up.

All the martial arts people don't understand naval warfare, and they want to use lightness kung fu to get on the enemy's warship, but there is still a distance between them, and no one dares to take such a big trap.

Long Biyun frowned slightly, and said, "Brother Lei Hai, what should we do?"

Lei Haidao: "Right now, I just hope that the opponent's shells are not too many. As long as our warship rushes up and reaches the range that bows, arrows and firecrackers can attack, we won't be afraid of them."

During the conversation, the distance between the two sides narrowed a lot, Lei Hai's face suddenly darkened, and he said coldly: "No, these guys want to escape."

Chang Wanke stood at the bow of the boat and shouted sharply: "Hurry up and catch up. If these pirates are released, let alone my heads will be lost, even you will lose your heads one by one."

Sure enough, the enemy ships in front were turning their sails to leave. Presumably, they knew very well how much they would be hit once they entered the range that bows and arrows and firecrackers could attack.

Suddenly, there was a "boom" from the cannon, and a shell flew over from mid-air, and fell far on the sea behind him, causing huge waves to blow up, and everyone was startled.

At this moment, Fang Jianming and the others could already hear voices coming from the other side's ship, only to hear a man with an extremely loud voice shout angrily: "What's wrong with you? There are only these few shells in total. You missed three shells!" One, do you know how much money I lost? If I didn’t see that you can fire a cannon, I would kill you with one shot. If you miss this shell, be careful that my gun goes off .”

Fang Jianming and the others were shocked when they heard this. Seeing that the distance between the two sides was close to the range that bows and arrows could attack, they heard a loud "boom", and a shell hit the ship like flying.

Fang Jianming raised his head to the sky and let out a long cry, his mind sank, his whole body was filled with protective qi, his body suddenly flew up, the Tian Chan Knife was unsheathed suddenly, a blade of light flashed in mid-air, the cicadas were flying, and a powerful and unparalleled force enveloped him. To the cannonball, as soon as the cannonball flew eight feet away from the ship, it exploded in mid-air with a "boom", and the huge counter-shock force knocked Fang Jianming down.

All the officers and soldiers were stunned when they saw it.At this time, the two sides had already entered the attack range of bows and arrows. Seeing that Chang Wanke was speechless in shock, Lei Hai hurriedly ordered an attack. All the officers and soldiers came back to their senses. Although it didn't completely hit the enemy, it also knocked down more than a dozen enemies.

The pirates saw that the situation was not good, and quickly fought back. Then, there was the sound of the fire system, and the two sides launched a big battle on the sea.

In close combat, the officers and soldiers have a great advantage. First, the officers and soldiers are usually well-trained. Second, whether it is bows and arrows or firecrackers, they are far more numerous than the opponent.

Not long after, more than half of the pirates were killed or injured, and two more ships were lost. Except for a few people who were injured on the court side, none of them died. , They will all send out the force of splitting palms, and the sharp arrows will be sent flying.

Just when the pirates couldn't resist, on the big ship in the pirate ship, six big men braved the offensive and pushed a big and heavy thing on the ship to the bow. The man with the loud voice shouted loudly. Said: "Stop, I have something to say." From his voice, it can be seen that this person has learned martial arts and has some internal skills, otherwise, no matter how loud his voice is, it will be difficult for the officers and soldiers to hear clearly.

Although Chang Wanke had seen that big and heavy thing for the first time, he could guess that it was a kind of artillery. Seeing that the muzzle was facing his own ship, he hurriedly ordered to stop the attack.

Although Lei Hai was a little unwilling, but he couldn't disobey Chang Wanke's order, so he could only stare fiercely at the opponent's ship.

I saw a burly middle-aged man stepping out of that big ship. Judging by his attire, he didn't look like a pirate, but a businessman, holding something like a tobacco rod in his hand.

Ma He stared, his expression changed, and he said, "Is that a matchlock gun in your hand?"

The middle-aged man was startled for a moment, then he laughed "haha" and said, "I didn't expect you to know that this thing is called an arquebus. Tell your chief to come out and speak."

Chang Wanke came out and said in a deep voice: "Bold pirates, dare to attack my warship. If you don't surrender quickly, you will all be buried in the sea."
