Arcane Universe

For this scene, Feng Chou is not too strange. Their two merchant ships are obviously larger than the two merchant ships that fled, and the number of gun windows on the ship is also obvious. On the small side, the huge merchant ship has only one layer of cannon windows, and there are only twenty cannon windows on this layer, which is really pitiful.

In this era, because of the technical problems of cannon casting, the caliber of the cannon is too small, the accuracy is also very low, the accuracy is low, and the range is short. Then it can only rely on more cannons to solve the problem of effective firepower, so for battleship In other words, the number of cannons is almost equal to the firepower of the battleship.

Feng Chou, who was regarded as a soft persimmon, could only sigh.

At this time, if the development of the Knight and the Warrior did not take measures, they would be attacked by four pirate ships one after the other in a few minutes.

Feng Chou immediately ordered a full rudder to the right, a 90-degree turn, and finally formed a shape of Sichuan with the enemy ship, so that the Kaikai Knight and the Warrior were in the middle of the enemy ship, and then used the development of the Knight and the The Warrior’s gunfire superiority, armor superiority, and the enemy ship meet force with force.

Feng Chou’s order was because he had absolute confidence in developing the armor and artillery of the Knight and Warrior, especially the artillery. On the other hand, he was also helpless.

After opening up the weapon system of the pioneer Knight, in terms of speed, compared with the four pirate ships not at all advantage, there is no speed advantage, and there are few enemies, it is difficult for the Feng Chou fleet. Grab a favorable situation.

Four oncoming pirate ships were divided into two, divided into two teams with left and full rudder to outflank the Feng Chou fleet, and the Feng Chou fleet also had a corresponding right full rudder, forming three teams. The situation where the fleets are parallel to each other.

It stands to reason that such a situation is unfavorable for the Feng Chou fleet. After all, he is caught between two breads, but the disadvantages are also limited. With this formation, the Feng Chou fleet is faced with enemies on both sides, but it also makes him The cannons on both sides of the ship can attack the enemy. Although the enemy ship doubles the Feng Chou fleet, one side of their ship can attack the Feng Chou fleet.

So, in addition to psychological advantages, this situation is more about firepower competition. Whoever has the stronger firepower will win.

This is also the reason why the old captain did not oppose Feng Chou’s order before.

The confident pirates lost their confidence within a few minutes after the Feng Chou fleet fired.

These four pirate ships are large-scale magic steam hybrid ships. Each ship is equipped with hundreds of artillery, and its firepower is not even weaker than that of the former Patrick, otherwise they would not Dare to open up the attention of the two huge monsters, Knight and Warrior.

The total number of artillery on each side of the four ships is more than two hundred. The two hundred cannons are at a distance of three to four hundred meters, pouring shells madly at the Warrior who fell behind. .

Although most of the shells hit the sea, in the first round shelling, there were still 20 or 30 shells that hit the Warrior.

But what stunned the group of pirates was that their shells hit the side deck of the Warrior, and they were bounced away, leaving only pits on the iron deck of the Warrior. ! The acid spell attached to some magic shells is useless!

But next moment, these pirates were not surprised, because the Warrior and the pioneer Knight opened fire at the same time.

Feng Chou’s two ships have a total of 80 cannons. These 80 cannons are scattered on the four pirate ships on both sides, one of which has only 20 rounds. If the shooting rate of the artillery in this era is , Every ship can hit one or two shots, thank goodness, not to mention the development of the Knight in the front is still outside the effective range of 500 meters.

But it turned out to be startled. In the deafening and terrible sound of artillery, almost all the more than 80 shells fired by the two ships were hit. What is more shocking is that most of the shells hit the pirate ship. The hull below the towering chimney in the middle is where the steam boiler is located.

What’s more frightening is that almost every shell completely penetrated the hull of the pirate ship. One of the pirates seemed to have been hit by the gunpowder depot, and the explosion tore the hull in half, and the other The pirate ship seemed to have destroyed the magic circuit. The steam engine and the magic propulsion ring were both shut down, and the entire ship was completely paralyzed. The remaining two pirate ships were fortunate to retain part of the magic power.

The two pirate ships are like frightened rabbits, struggling desperately to turn their bows and flee away from the Feng Chou fleet.

Unfortunately, after losing steam power, the speed of these two ships dropped sharply. How could they have surpassed the development of the Knight and the Warrior?

Open up the Knight and the Warrior to catch up with the two pirate ships respectively, relying on help to go up, under the leadership of the captain, the sailors of the two ships rushed onto the two pirate ships like tigers out of the lock.

After Feng Chou teleported over two pirate ships and dropped ten bone golems into the pirate group that put up a desperate struggle, the pirates completely collapsed.

After solving the two pirate ships that were still powered, the development of the Knight and the Warrior, in the desperate eyes of the pirates, approached the pirate ship that had completely lost power from both sides.

As a result, before the sailors who developed the Knight and Warrior jumped to help, the pirates on this ship raised the white flag.

Next, Feng Chou ran into difficulties again.

The ship is easy to handle, the key is what should these pirates do?

All killed? Together with the pirates who were rescued by diving after the shipwreck, there are more than two thousand people!

Is it all released? these all are pirates with bloody hands!

Furthermore, how to put it? Would it be impossible to return a boat to them? This is a magic steam hybrid ship worth tens of millions of kronor!

In the end, the old captain gave the usual method of dealing with pirates, exile.

This group of pirates was exiled to a nearby desert island.

They have not left the archipelago belt, and there are many deserted islands not far away.

Finally, Feng Chou asked his sailors to take over the two powered pirate ships, carrying two thousand deprived and tied-up pirates, and let the pioneer Knight drag the unpowered ship The pirate ship turned its course and headed for the nearest desert island.

Before leaving, Feng Chou secretly kept the Universe Pagoda. The mission of the Universe Pagoda was to secretly collect the sinking pirate ship into the Universe Pagoda.

In the eyes of Feng Chou, this silent pirate ship is dismantled, dismantled, and cleaned up. It is also a lot of gold coins.

As for the two armed merchant ships that were unintentionally rescued by the Feng Chou fleet, they have long since disappeared.

On the sea, armed merchant ship good pirates can actually be equated.

On the chaotic Southern Continent route, 80% of the armed merchant ships have looted other merchant ships, and the remaining 20% ​​are either without chance or strength.

Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it is also a true portrayal of the Southern Continent route and even the entire sea.

Although the pirates are extremely vicious, they don’t have to kill to the last one for the merchant ship crew. If necessary, they will recruit some sailors to join them. If there are desert islands nearby, they sometimes don’t. Mind throwing the remaining people alive on the desert island. Robbed by pirates, if good luck, there is still a chance to survive.

But if the looting is another armed merchant ship, in order to prevent the looted person from returning alive and revealing the crimes of the looter, often the entire merchant ship will be wiped out.

So, in the sea, for the weak merchant ship, when encountering other armed merchant ships, you need to be careful as you encounter pirates.

After the Feng Chou fleet drove south for more than an hour, a huge desert island appeared in the sight of everyone.

Hearing the report, Feng Chou walked out of his luxurious cabin. Not long ago, the Universe Pagoda was teleported back from the shipwreck.

The reason for the delay was that the pirate ship, which was mainly made of magic wood, was sinking very slowly. The Universe Pagoda opened a space door under the sunken ship and waited for a long time before it fell in.

Feng Chou stood on the bridge and looked at the deserted island in the distance. This is not a small desert island. Universe Pagoda estimates that it is more than 100 square kilometers. The island has fresh water and a small river. Flowing into the ocean in his field of vision, this Sea Territory is in the ocean current, and the offshore aquatic products are quite rich. Even if two thousand people are exiled to the island, they will not starve to death.

He was satisfied and nodded, indicating that the pirates could be put down.

Of course, sailors will not give precious lifeboats to pirates. Besides, even if all the lifeboats on the five ships are put down, it is not enough to hold all the pirates. Therefore, the pirates have only one choice if they want to go to the island, and that is to swim there.

The pirates were untied one after another. Driven by the sword, they jumped off the boat and swam toward the beach for more than one kilometer.

Leaving all the pirates behind, the Feng Chou fleet turned the bow and sailed away from the desert island.

As for how to deal with these captured pirate ships, the old captain suggested that he return to Rozburg port and deal with these pirate ships cheaply in Rozburg. After all, they can’t drag these three cumbersomes to go next. Of more than 10,000 kilometers of sea route.

Feng Chou certainly didn’t want to sell these good pirate ships at a low price, but he agreed to the old captain’s suggestion.

Fleet adjusted its course and headed towards the port of Rozburg.

When fleet drove to the empty and lonely sea, it suddenly disappeared without a trace, leaving only Feng Chou floating on the sea.

Feng Chou identified the position and used advanced teleportation to teleport to another piece of sea. After the teleportation was completed, he also disappeared without a trace, leaving the Universe Pagoda floating on the empty sea. After a while, Two merchant ships suddenly appeared on the sea again.

These two ships are naturally the development of the Knight and the Warrior. Feng Chou stood on the bridge that opened the Knight and glanced up at the floating sky of the Universe Pagoda. There was nothing there. The Universe Pagoda had long been there. I used the Invisibility Technique for myself, next moment, and the Universe Pagoda appeared on Feng Chou’s chest, turning it back into a birthmark.

In such a short time, the three pirate ships have disappeared. They have naturally been left in the Pagoda Universe. The crew did not think it was a surprise, because the Universe Pagoda gave them a unified organization. In memory, they have been to the port of Rozburg and sold three pirate ships to port merchants.

Next, Feng Chou gave out bonuses as usual.

According to maritime practice, after a legally captured enemy ship is sold, half of the funds obtained belong to the owner of the ship. Of the other half, one third belongs to the captain, one third belongs to the senior officials on board, and one third belongs to Middle and low-level officials and ordinary sailors.

Among the one third who belong to the crew, half belong to middle and low-level officials and half belong to ordinary crew members.

Feng Chou, in accordance with the usual practice, directly used Sol gold coins to distribute bounty to everyone.

The yellow, orange and orange gold coins stimulated the sailors to party all night.

The carnival of improper sailors, not at all affects Fleet’s voyage, and they have a smooth wind on the next voyage.

After more than ten days, they finally approached the new supply point “Angola”.
