Assassin’s Adventure - Chapter 122
“How did you know the news about El Dorado?” Gordon’s eyes narrowed, staring at Serena seriously.
Serena didn’t care: “Because I’m a witch, I already said it.”
Of course, this answer made Gordon unsatisfied. This costume, this face, and this ability all fit the image of a witch a little bit.
He waved to the side: “Jon, come here and tell me what the witch you met looked like?”
Jon, who heard Gordon’s greeting, was very speechless anyway, thinking that his captain just wanted to tease the girl, but shouted helplessly: “Smoky makeup, sir, dark circles under the eyes, strange behavior, and braided hair. , and like to raise all kinds of inexplicable creatures!”
“You heard, this is the witch, don’t be delusional all day, unless you can breathe fire.”
Gordon was very speechless. Serena knew that the news of El Dorado was probably heard from the sailors chatting. Do they really want to stay in one more port for Serena?
No matter how you think about it, it makes people feel very headache, and sure enough, Gibbs is right, bringing a woman on board will cause trouble.
“I can’t breathe fire.”
Serena seriously considered this question before answering, as if she really thought about it for a long time.
“My God, where do you think you’re sleeping on a boat?” Gordon had given up on the witch issue.
Serena pointed her finger at the captain’s room: “I can sleep there.”
“That’s my place, no!”
……
The Jackdaw kept sailing southwest amid this quarrel.
In the end, the captain’s room belonged to Serena. Gordon himself moved the wardrobe into the mapping room and put it on the floor. Not to mention, there was no problem except that it was easy to bump into the desk in the morning.
This voyage lasted for twenty-five days, and the Caribbean waters were just around the corner.
This morning, Gordon came out of the mapping room, looked at the small island in the distance and shouted, “My Captain Gordon is back!”
During the voyage during this period, there were many rains, and even when I was free, I could take a luxurious bath. At this time, my spirit was very good.
Resurrected with full blood, this is his current state.
When I stayed in the Caribbean Sea, I felt all kinds of unpleasantness here, the city was tattered and full of stench, and the sailors were fighting in the tavern and shouting loudly.
A person always realizes the value of something when he loses it. There is no comfort in a big city, but it is very comfortable.
Listening to the sound of the roaring cannons in front, watching the smoke and flames burning in the sky, there is only one word, cool!
“Pirate Ship!”
shouted the sailor in charge of the lookout.
“Hahaha……”
Mickey let out a hearty laugh. Finally, a pirate ship finally appeared, and this pirate ship was attacking a galleon with a British flag.
This ship is 80 meters long and has a displacement of about 900 tons. It already belongs to the middle and high class of merchant ships.
This kind of merchant ship is almost filled with gold and silver treasures, and is responsible for the tribute of the British royal family. The tall mast is full of sails, and it has a stronger speed and loading capacity.
Such merchant ships are generally escorted by navies or privateers, but at this time they are nowhere to be seen.
“All sailors get their weapons ready, cannons loaded! Raise the sails and go full speed ahead.”
Gordon took the helm himself, shouting.
He took out his binoculars and looked at the pirate ship in the distance, with green sails and a hideous skull flag hanging on it. If he guessed correctly, it belonged to the pirate alliance.
This ship is larger than the Jackdaw, about 55 to 60 meters, but it has already been caught in the fierce bombardment with the galleon. This is a good time.
“Put it on, paste it directly!”
The level of the artillery on the opposite side is obviously higher than theirs, and there are more cannons, so there is no advantage in shooting at all. If they can rush up to form a situation of pincer attack, then the advantage can be formed.
“Prepare the bow gun!”
The sailor pulled up the baffle in front of the bow gun and pushed out the gun, which was filled with sixteen-pound rounds.
The distance between the two ships is getting closer.
Listening to the sailor at the watchtower reporting the distance.
“Eight hundred meters, get into range!”
“Fire!”
Alan shouted loudly.
Boom!
The two bow guns were fired almost at the same time, and the gunpowder propelled the cannonballs and flew out violently, and then smashed into the towering building of the pirate ship, forming two holes visible to the naked eye.
Hearing the sound of the cannon firing, Gordon was very satisfied. The 16-pound and 12-pound cannons were completely different. This kind of vibration really made one’s blood boil.
“The enemy released the powder keg, prepare to evade!”
Gordon began to turn the rudder quickly, and with agile steering, the Jackdaw shuttled among those powder kegs, and then continued to approach the pirate ship.
“Fifty meters!”
The sailor shouted that he could already see the pirates on the opposite ship.
Gordon’s heart skipped a beat, and the collision angle was aimed at the stern of the pirate ship.
“Be careful hitting!”
Click! boom!
The violent impact and shaking directly caused the jackdaw to sink deep into the stern of the pirate ship. The sailors pulled the side and ropes to resist a shock, but the pirate ship in front was not so lucky. The three visible sailors fell into the water, and the stern A large gap was torn open.
The stubble splashed, and the entire hull began to deflect.
But the Jackdaw didn’t get embedded in it, but bounced off the impact, and then disengaged.
“Hahaha… All sailors are ready to fight~www.mtlnovel.com~Left full rudder.”
Gordon laughed at the top of his throat, as if there was a shadow of Barbossa, maybe that’s where the hoarse voice came from.
The Jackdaw gradually caught up from the left side of the pirate ship.
“Stay steady and wait for the sides of the boat to align.”
The sailors of the Jackdaw had smelled the war, and although they were nervous, none of them flinched, they were now submissive to the British Royal Privateer, plundering the pirate ship, and then taking everything from them, the ship, or It’s a cannon.
“Fire!” Gordon ordered loudly.
“Fire!” Allen shouted to the sailors on deck.
“Fire!” Mitch conveyed the entire order to the cabin.
Boom! Boom boom boom!
The sixteen-pound round bullet directly penetrated the side of the pirate ship at close range, and flew out from the other side of the ship, causing penetrating damage and causing two large holes.
“what……”
The pirates screamed and fell into the water, or were directly cut in two by a round bullet.
There was even a direct hit on the load-bearing column, causing the upper deck to collapse and form a cavity.
This is a war.
“Fire!”
The pirate ship didn’t stand still, and the captain’s command to fire could be heard clearly on the deck of the Jackdaw.
“Watch out for artillery strikes!”
bang bang…
The continuous artillery strikes also hit the Jackdaw, opening a lot of gaps in the hull.
“A sailor fell into the water!”
There is no exception. Everyone in the Jackdaw is threatened with death. The only safe place is the ship’s building. This is the only place where the two ships will not be attacked when they collide.
“Get ready to take over!”
