Chapter 29 Naval Battle!

"It's a pirate!"

The screams of the crew echoed on the deck.

Su Ye narrowed his eyes and looked intently.

Benefit from his further heightened senses.

Su Ye clearly saw the scene on the pirate ship!
A group of tattooed, light brown-skinned arrogant pirates are shouting savagely in some kind of tongue-twisting language!

"Are the archipelago natives?" Su Ye thought in his heart.

The current Yaoguang people, who occupy the mainstream, are descendants of colonists from the coast of the Central Plains.

But there are indigenous races in the vast Yaoguang Islands.

As descendants of conquered people, they also have obvious differences in language and appearance.

The natives of these islands are subject to discrimination and suppression within the jurisdiction of the Yaoguang Sect.

Therefore, they often choose to become pirates.

Or maybe the entire tribe is dedicated to being pirates!

Harsh living environment, scarce resources, and ubiquitous discrimination.

Let the native pirates be more cruel and brave!

……

At this time, due to the unfavorable wind direction, it was difficult for the Flying Snake to turn in time.

The pirate ship in the distance is coming through the waves, and the distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer!

"No need to turn, get ready to fight!"

Seeing this, Luo Qingjun made a decisive decision and said solemnly.

Su Ye had no objection to this decision.

In the case of bad wind, facing the galloping pirate ship.

If the Flying Snake continues to turn persistently, it will be in a very unfavorable situation.

Peng.

Two whale hunting ballistas were launched from the cabin and installed on the side of the hull facing the enemy ship to serve as shipborne ballistas.

"Load the crossbow!" Luo Qingjun shouted.

hum!
The two crew members in the early stage of Qi refining worked together to pull the ballista, and the crossbow strings were full.

The crew members on the side are responsible for loading the crossbows!

"First officer, please control another ballista." Luo Qingjun asked while adjusting the ballista.

"Yes!"

Luo Guanghe looked stunned, but he did not dare to neglect and also stepped forward to adjust the crossbow.

laugh!
The sharp crossbow arrows made of spiritual iron and spiritual wood drew two white lines in the air at an astonishing speed!
In the blink of an eye, the whale hunting arrows covered a distance of hundreds of meters!

Su Ye squinted his eyes and looked from a distance.

Zheng!
The crossbow bolts were nailed deep into the deck of the pirate ship.

The huge kinetic energy, which has not been dissipated, drives the arrow shaft to vibrate continuously.

Simultaneously.

It also caused the still-warm indigenous corpse on the arrow shaft to tremble constantly.

It was as if, like dancing a dance of death!
"Okay!" Luo Qingjun said happily.

only.

The other crossbow arrow unfortunately failed and slid into the water in a graceful manner.

"Sorry...I..." Luo Guanghe said bitterly.

"It's okay..."

Luo Qingjun raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice.

"Keep filling! Kill them all!"

The significance of the ship-borne ballista is not to sink the hull.

In fact, the hull of a large sea-going ship is so strong that it is almost impossible to sink it with solid crossbow bolts.

but.

To win, you don't need to sink the hull.

A very simple truth.

Low-level spirit ships that are unmanned are not threatening at all...

But for fragile Qi-refining monks, the power of crossbow arrows will be fatal!

The idea of ​​​​naval warfare in this era is to kill a large number of enemy ship crews and paralyze their combat effectiveness!

Compared with the maximum casualties, the land battle occurred in the rout stage.

Naval battles are often more cruel and bloody!
Usually at the end of a naval battle, the decks of both sides will be covered with broken flesh and blood...

……

laugh!laugh!
Two rounds of fire!
The Flying Snake fired ballistas wantonly to reap the lives of the pirates.

On the opponent's deck, several mutilated corpses, as well as severed limbs and pieces of flesh were left.

For monks in the early and mid-stage of Qi refining, being hit by a crossbow can almost equate to immediate death!

Even if it is an abrasion, under the blessing of huge kinetic energy, it will also lead to the mutilation of limbs!
"Let these natives see the power of civilization!"

Luo Qingjun laughed.

Due to the technical blockade of the Yaoguang people on the indigenous people of the archipelago, it is difficult for the indigenous pirates to obtain ship-borne firepower such as ballistas.

Even if it is intercepted by luck, it will be maintained due to lack of technical personnel.

As well as being unable to obtain crossbow bolt reserves, it was quickly abandoned.

It can only be sold to black market merchants at scrap metal prices in exchange for a few meager spiritual stones.

The lack of ballistae means that these pirates can only be beaten passively at this time!
However, just when the Flying Snake was bombing indiscriminately, it was quite proud.

But the pirate ship endured casualties and got closer and closer!
The distance between the two sides was only more than a hundred meters!

"strangeness……"

"Don't you give up? Still want to rush over to meet the ship?"

Su Ye's heart froze, a little strange.

The natives are so brave?
"Bosun, be careful. This group of pirates is difficult to deal with. Lead the crew to be on guard and prepare for a boarding battle!"

At this time, Luo Qingjun was also aware of the risk, and commanded solemnly.

"Understood." Su Ye nodded solemnly, held the blood-drinking spear, and greeted the crew.

Just, next.

The development of things was somewhat unexpected.

The pirate ship did not rush over to meet the board as Luo Qingjun and the others had imagined.

Instead, they slowed down and turned the ship around!
"Huh? Why..."

Luo Qingjun was taken aback.

Then, as if thinking of something, he exclaimed.

"impossible!"

There was also a look of astonishment on Su Ye's face.

"They are..."

"Want to confront us?!"

……

Soon, the pirate ship's turn was completed.

On the Flying Serpent, the crew member responsible for loading the ballista was completing a round of loading.

He raised his head, intending to admire the appearance of the natives struggling to escape under the ballista.

And suddenly, his expression froze, and cold sweat instantly flowed from his forehead.

"Four...four doors?!"

On the pirate ship, there are four ballistas impressively installed!

Not only do they have ballistae, but lots of them!
And at such a close distance, the crew could even see...

Bloodthirsty smiles appeared on the faces of the native pirates!
'Booming us just now, it's very cool, isn't it? '

Peng!
The pirates fired the trigger.

Four spiritual iron crossbow arrows suddenly broke through the air and struck!
Deng!
The crew member only felt that a huge force hit his chest, causing him to lose consciousness in an instant!
The roaring crossbow arrows continued unabated, and with the broken body, it was nailed to the ship's board with a loud bang!
Blood splattered!

"what!!!"

There was an uproar on the Flying Serpent.

"How is this possible... Damn indigenous pirates, where did they get the ballistae and spirit iron crossbows? These are all controlled items!"

"Who is so bold as to risk the Shangzong's ban and sell to them?!"

Luo Qingjun said in horror.

"Captain, get down!"

The first officer, Luo Guanghe, looked anxious, and rushed forward, holding Luo Qingjun down.

"This group of pirates actually have ballistas?" Su Ye frowned, smelling the breath of conspiracy.

Just as he was thinking about it, his heart suddenly tightened.

A strong sense of crisis is crazily warning Su Ye!

'This is……'

'Is there a ballista aimed at me? ! '
