Swordfish was severely damaged in this round of shelling, but at this opportunity, the Jackdaw on the other side finally completed the steering and got rid of the dilemma of being beaten unilaterally.

The muzzle on the side of the ship’s side has been fully opened long ago, and the gunners have all been on their own. With the order of Zhang Heng, the Jackdaw finally began to fight back.

After the first two successful looting trips to the sea, and the more than 2 people who killed Wilton overnight after returning to Hong Kong, the Jackdaw was temporarily out of the limelight in Nassau 200, which also brought great importance to the subsequent recruitment. Great convenience.

As long as Zhang Heng is willing to be able to directly expand the crew of the Jackdaw to the limit of 200 people in half a day, but it does not make sense to do so, as the number of personnel increases, each time the sea robs everyone, the profit will be Decrease, compared with a simple increase in the number of people, Zhang Heng is more concerned about the quality of the sailors recruited.

Therefore, each time the recruitment threshold for the Jackdaw returned to the island, it will be considerably improved compared to the previous one. Now the level of the gunner on the ship is completely different from the first voyage. In addition, the Jackdaw itself is a battleship, and the firepower configuration is also Very good, once the gun was fired, it immediately attracted the attention of the three Spanish sailboats opposite.

However, at this time, the Spanish commander still focused mainly on the swordfish, the hull of the latter was seriously damaged, it is in a spurt of energy to win the other party ’s best time, if at this time give up let the other party run It would be a pity to drop it, let alone change the target, and readjust the launch angle and distance.

Therefore, the three Spanish sailboats temporarily ignored the Jackdaw on the other side, preparing to concentrate their firepower to take off the Swordfish.

At this time, Brooke obviously also noticed the opponent’s tactical intentions, and decisively abandoned the original plan. Although the swordfish had aimed the side port at the Spanish treasure ship, but not at all fired, but continued to fill the rudder left, Prepare to turn around and flee.

Swordfish was very embarrassed in the previous round of fire, the hull was seriously damaged, and some of the power was lost. Fortunately, the main mast was still there, and Brook ’s strain was timely enough to complete the U-turn under the artillery and rush to the next round Retreat before the arrival.

His excellent helm technology was also revealed at this time, and the three Spanish sailing ships carried out two rounds of shelling, but this time, the swordfish was used to avoid the vast majority of shells with its flaming trajectory, but the Spanish command The official responded quickly, realizing the opponent’s cunning, and immediately changed his strategy to adopt a coverage strike.

This time Brooke’s helm technology was useless no matter how. The stern ate 4 shells, but the Swordfish still did not sink, and at the cost of it, it quickly pulled away from three Spanish sailboats.

On the other hand, the artillery fire of the Jackdaw became more and more fierce. Zhang Heng chose a frigate as the target of attack. This time he did not retain his strength. The gunner on the ship was bombed for a long time and accumulated a lot. The anger in the stomach was immediately put into battle after receiving the command to fire

The main gunner aimed and ignited the fire rope. As the shells flew out, the secondary gunner immediately filled the next ammunition. The muzzle of the muzzle was diffused on the sea. After 2 rounds of artillery, the deck of the frigate was also a mess. The hull Several large holes were also shot by the 24-pound shell, but fortunately they were all above the water level and there was no danger of sinking.

But the latter will not last long, and the captain on the ship has begun to send a signal of help to the commander on the main ship.

The commander of the Spanish looked at the swaying swordfish in the distance, and a flash of unwillingness flashed in his eyes. The other party was obviously an arrow at the end of its flight, as long as there were 2 more rounds of attack. The opponent won, and then turned around to deal with another pirate ship, you can wipe out this evil group of robbers to catch everything in one net.

There is nothing wrong with the plan itself, but he did not expect that the Jackdaw’s firepower would be so strong, and even if he could kill the two pirate ships, he might have to pay an frigate.

This price was something he did not want to bear, so he used semaphores to notify the other 2 ships to change the target, preparing to abandon the Swordfish and instead target the Jackdaw.

But at this time Zhang Heng had also completed his own strategic goal, turning the rudder and maneuvering the Jackdaw out of combat, but he temporarily changed the direction of retreat and did not lead the target to Parrot Island as originally planned.

“Captain?” Billy’s face was puzzled.

“This time the commander of the other party is very difficult to deal with. We only have 2 ships but dare to attack them. If we all escape to Parrot Island, he will definitely be suspicious.”

“But what if they come after us?”

“The probability of this happening is very small. The damage of the swordfish is much more serious than ours, and the loss of 2 masts, the speed is seriously damaged. If you were them, which ship would you choose to chase?”

As if to prove Zhang Heng’s words, the three Spanish sailing ships also quickly made a choice, reversing the direction, and really gave up the Jackdaw retreating in the other direction, instead chasing the Swordfish.

The Spanish commander is very angry. He has been in charge of this route for more than ten years. In these decades, no pirates have dared to take the initiative to provoke them. If this is the case, the group will retreat without any cost. That would be too cheap for the other party.

Swordfish used to be the fastest 3-mast sailing ship in this Sea Territory, but at the current hull state only less than half the usual speed, and there is a considerable section of the road from Parrot Island where they are fighting. Brook used to not take this distance into mind, but now he only feels that every one minute is extremely long.

Seeing that the three Spanish sailboats were getting closer and closer to him, Brooke couldn’t get rid of each other. His sweat was gradually deep on his forehead, and the bow of one of the warships was about to stick to the stern of the swordfish However, at this time, the Jackdaw, who had fled to the other side, turned back again. The chief gunner on the ship manipulated the first gun, harassed the warship at the front, and won a breather for the swordfish.

Brooke instructed the crew to throw almost all the undesirable heavy objects into the water, finally increasing the speed of the swordfish by half a quarter.

It was this half-quarter speed that saved the life of the Swordfish at a critical time. The Spanish commander also fired at this time. Zhang Heng ’s previous escape in the other direction greatly paralyzed him. He will be subconsciously alert to the terrain where the sight is blocked, such as islands, but this time he has already killed his red eyes. Seeing that he will be able to sink the Swordfish, he has no time to think about it.
