chapter six hundred and sixty two.

This is how these pirates were, scattered and scattered, vulnerable, but one of them took the lead, but when they got crazy, they were like a tiger, and they would not retreat. The Black Island took the lead and crushed into the Spanish fleet like a tiger shark. After a sea of ​​cannons was set off, layers of pirate ships were pulled up in the long roar of sailors like a wolf howl, and their sharp teeth chewed on the Spanish.

The most unlucky thing was the first Victoria who rushed up bravely. Every time a Ming pirate ship cut in horizontal rows would fire at it, the Victoria with a broken mast could not hide at all. The Spanish sailor squatting on it was waiting to die. There was no way to hide behind the wooden wall. He was killed one by one in the raindrops. In the end, the keel was hit by a few shots and broke into the sea.

With a giggling sound, the bow of the ship with the statue attached to it was raised high, and it hit the tilted tail building with a bang, and finally sank down with bubbles.

On the other side, the Black Island had completely plunged into the Spanish fleet and fought fiercely with three Spanish warships.

After the Battle of the Invincible Fleet in 1596, Spain's ancient tactics did change, but what happened today was too sudden and could not open up the combat space. He was directly rushed to the middle of the two ships by the Black Island. Ninety-six heavy artillery on both sides instantly burst out with devastating destructive power. Henan choked the cannon like a long bang, and the irritable firecrackers spurted out anger. The twelve shotguns at close range were cut into tofu and cut into the opposite ship's side. The wood scattered in the sound of the sound. The gunners on the opposite board didn't even have time to hum, and then threw them backwards with the air waves.

At high speed, even the wood chips were as murderous as flying knives. As the gunner screamed, a medicine boy was running over quickly with a gunpowder barrel. Unexpectedly, the boat board beside him exploded and a black dot hit his leg. Before he could even snort, the medicine boy collapsed to the ground. The bloody fountain on his left leg appeared, and the leg bones were folded into two halves from the middle.

He was quite lucky. Not far from him, a bearded gunner fell directly on the back deck. Several long wooden blocks were inserted into his face, his eyes were squeezed out, and blood flowed down muddy.

The war is fair. When the Spanish ship was shot, the Black Island also suffered damage. But on the one hand, the ship was large and used enough materials. On the other hand, the black technology of Dongjiang was also revealed, fiber web!

As we all know, later bulletproof vest materials were not solid steel, but relatively soft Kevlar pottery pieces, which were very easy to fold. When facing arrows, the defense of the cotton armor made of paper and the cloth armor stamped by cloth was not even as good as iron armor. Dongjiang was also the source of cheap cloth production. In the Dongjiang ships before the 15th year of Chongzhen, every time there was a layer of wood soaked with rubber, a layer of rotten fiber was pasted between the wood of the ship board. After the 15th year of Chongzhen, both layers of the ship boards were simply pasted with a thick layer of rubber cotton cloth.

The Spanish shipboard was splattered and smashed, even if it was the lightest grape bomb, the Dongjiang shipboard faced the small-caliber cannon, and the shells were simply embedded into the shipboard. Even if the heavy artillery opened the shipboard, it would only make a big hole, causing splash damage. The Spanish warships on both sides were almost knocked into sieves, and Zheng Sen's Black Island only had a few more pocks. The gunner's casualties were not at the same level.

However, compared with the traditional Ming pirate ship, the only disadvantage of the Dongjiang warship is probably that the bow of the ship has no first gun. Both sides are fighting happily. Unexpectedly, it hit the fore deck with a few loud bangs, smashing several big holes on the thick deck. The bow of the ship is a bit imitated by Japanese style. The compassionate face of Hachiman, who stretches out his eight arms, flattened a piece of Zheng Sen's favorite fishing gear away.

Seeing the Spanish warship firing in front of him, Zheng Sen's pirate blood suddenly emerged completely, and the rudder was directly stuck. He pulled out the battle knife and roared like a lion.

"The sail is moving forward at full speed, and it's my mother-in-law!"

The oldest angle-collision tactics can be played in advanced artillery battles! The sailors on the bow also let out a madman roar, and the heavy rigging pulled down. The sails that fell for the battle once again bulged round. Suddenly, the accelerated Black Island abandoned the two frigates that were beaten to the point of being beaten, and rushed towards the Spanish warship that was struck by the crossroads in front of them like a manniu.

It was obvious that the Spanish sailors across the street could be heard terrified. The captain wearing a triangle cap suddenly beat the rudder to death. The first mate in front of the ship was also screaming with sails. The heavy warship creaked and turned around. But before the stern of the ship turned thirty degrees, Zheng Sen's Black Island had already hit him hard.

The extremely shrill collision, and the crackling sound of the wood cracking, the eight arms of the Great Bodhisattva of Hachiman were completely embedded in the hull of the unlucky Spanish warship and stuck on it. The vibration of distance caught more than a dozen Spanish sailors next to the ship and fell into the sea unexpectedly. The rest fell to the ground like a rolling gourd. Before they could get up, the screaming Ming pirates had already jumped off the bow of the ship more than one meter high, wielding an axe and scimitar, and slashed the Spanish sailors' foreheads.

Bang~bang~

Muskets like Burning Beans are rising one after another, and white smoke is steaming on the ship. The gunshots are accompanied by the pirates' rage of rage. The jumping gang battle is no better than a big formation match on the road. Fighting against the narrow deck is a test of personal skills and courage. The Spanish big formation tactics are too difficult to play here. The Spanish conquerors with big guns have just rushed out of the lower deck. Suddenly, a pirate with an axe slashed towards him. Unreasonable, he directly chopped his dog's head with an axe. With a click, even the Spanish iron helmet was split in half.

After pulling out the axe, the pirate grinned and cut down along the narrow corridor. The spear was not good, let alone the clamps below. With the crackling sound of bone breaking, blood water flowed down like a corpse, like a horror scene.

Looking at the entire battlefield, the Zheng family pirate warships with strong financial resources and strong firepower collided with the Spaniards one by one. There were artillery fires below, and ropes roaring above the head. The Ming pirates who jumped to the gang fell on the deck like raindrops, followed by bloody fighting. They looked at their main formation with a telescope and climbed up the bird's nest. Governor Mariana, who had climbed up the bird's nest, came down helplessly and immediately ordered quickly.

"Abandon the treasure ship! Order retreat!"

"retreat?"

The stubborn old man, Colonel Alex, who was already full of fire, collapsed like a firecracker, full of anger. He pointed at the battlefield with a ferocious face and shouted: "Marquis, do you let the royal navy escape in front of pirates? Do you want the empire's face?"

"Gold is important or the jewel in the crown of His Majesty the Emperor, and the East Indies is important? My lord's fiancée Miss Serita is still in Manila. No matter how much, my lord cannot let her hang on the gallows of the pagans! Colonel Alex, are you going to go against my lord?"

Seeing Governor Hernan, who had always been smiling, thrust his face with a ferocious face, once again, Alex, a civilian-born, had to compromise and angrily threw the commanding sword to the ground. He turned around and left.

The command ship, which was not yet entangled with attack, suddenly shook out a complex and rapid flag verb, and then the next swarm of Spanish warships spread the signal out like a swarm. The initial surprise that also experienced was that the sailors who were guarding more than a dozen treasure ships in the middle rowed the boat and evacuated them helplessly. A group of people brought out the spices in the cargo hold and lit them directly on the deck. The white smoke rising up immediately attracted the attention of the pirates who were attacking frantically.

"Sir, look!"

Listening to the loud shouting of Shi Daxuan behind him, he threw the captain who was shot several times and knelt on the ground and vomited blood aside. Zheng Sen climbed onto the pile of cargo covered with canvas on the deck in a few seconds. The telescope looked at him, and he immediately shouted in pain.

"The treasure ship is inside!"

"Don't cut it all! Go back! Go back! Go for me to rob the treasure ship! You're still cutting it! Do you want money?"

He kicked over his subordinate who was still slashing happily, and Zheng Sen shouted and ran back again. Following the Black Island pirate who was killing and slashing, he also ran backwards, leaving only the Spanish captain with a few blood holes on his body, and the crew member who was grinning and grinning.

However, it would be great to stab it in, but it would be difficult to pull it out. Seeing other pirate ships abandoned their opponents and rushed towards the central circle. The pirates who returned to the Black Island were sailing and ruddering, and they were all in a hurry, but the eight arms of the Hachiman-Godian Bodhisattva on the head were stuck in the Spanish ship and they couldn't pull it out.

He was so angry that he almost cried. Zheng Sen roared in anger: "Where is the powder barrel? Move it up and explode!"

"Young Master, will we have to blow up the bow of the boat?"

The first mate Shi Daxuan was sweating coldly and screamed sadly behind him, but Zheng Sen was so anxious that he smashed his punch on the rudder.

"I don't care!"

"It's fine to sail. Just grab a treasure ship and buy a few Black Islands. Go quickly!"

His son's eyes were red and he could not do anything. Shi Daxuan could only run to the lower deck with a big heart. But just when Zheng Sen was so anxious that he was as ants on the hot pan, a sailor with a knife on the thigh limped over with a white flag and hit the pirates holding a gun on the bow of the ship, pointing at the mast behind him in fear and shouting Spanish.

Although the language was not clear, the gestures were universal. After watching for a long time, Zheng Sen understood and shouted in a hurry.

"Don't shoot, go down and paddle! Ximan wants to pull it out with us!"

Dozens of oars stretched out from the muzzle, and the Spaniard also changed into sails. The enemy sides who had just fought to the point of blood flowing in the river worked together. With the crackling sound, the Great Bodhisattva Hachiman, whose arms were broken, was pulled out. The bow of the Kuroshima hit the water heavily, and the Spanish ship suddenly retreated like a gray whale that was gnawed by a shark.

However, just when Zheng Sen breathed a sigh of relief, the pirate ship was already leaning against the treasure ship that was given out. The heavy box was carried out by the excited pirates from under the cabin and opened suddenly. The golden gold and shiny silver, and various spices with various rich fragrances suddenly came into their eyes. In an instant, the pirates went crazy, grabbed the treasures and put them in their arms like a joyful thrill. The precious metal hit together made a crisp thrill sound. A gold coin carved with the avatar of unknown Westerners was like having life. It bypassed several greedy dirty hands, and thumped along the tilted deck and fell into the warm Pacific Ocean. The water splashed made a crisp and pleasant sound.

Despite the disastrous defeat, the Ming pirates still achieved the final victory, snatching the huge treasure that the Spaniards had worked hard in South America for a whole year, and countless gold and silver raindrops were raised like raindrops.

Become rich!

On the other side, the scarred Spanish warship finally dragged away from the battlefield and staggered to the northeast. Standing on the deck, the telescope looked at the constantly glowing golden light, and the old officer Alex's originally reddish-brown eyes seemed to be bleeding.

Since the Battle of Britain and the West, the glorious first empire of the Sun never set, the face of the sacred Spanish Empire was slapped again in the East and robbed by a group of pirates. It is estimated that Spain will become a laughing stock in the Western world for a long time.

However, compared with the East Indies, this loss is no longer a concern! What we have lost now is Manila, the capital. If we drag it down, perhaps Central and South Asia will have no place to gain a foothold in Spain. They will be beaten to death, and they will have to go back and drive the invading Ming army back to the sea.

Amid Alex's unwilling roar, more than 30 Spanish warships, the main force of Spain's East India, with nearly 8,000 people, finally escaped from the battlefield in a mess and returned straight to Luzon.

But what these Spaniards didn't know was that they just jumped into one fire pit to another!

…………

Hundreds of kilometers away, Manila City.

In one month, the entire city and all population resources within 50 kilometers nearby had completely fallen into the hands of the Ming Dynasty, and the offensive against Fort St. Philip was also launched.

On the fortress wall, the Spanish defenders who were already hungry and dizzy looked at the fear of Venus. In the dull night in the evening, the already black natives carried piles of palm leaves, wet wood, and firewood overdrawn to the front of Fort St. Philip. Behind, the Ming soldiers were smiling and pointing at the back.

The wind blew slowly from the sea, and the long beard and temples of yellow Degong were flying. Looking at the fortress in the night, his eyes narrowed with pride but murderous intent.

All along, Mao Jue's Dongjiang tactics have been rampant, making the faces of the old Ming generals slam. This time, it was finally his turn to show what he learned and come up with some old ways to show off!

Seeing that the palm leaves were almost piled up with the fire-induced objects, Huang Degong roared loudly.
