Global Advent: Desert Island Survival

Chapter 133 Crush the pirates and take down the volcanic island
The sudden turn of the fleet gave Edwin a bad feeling.

But the approach of the two fleets prevented him from making any decisions, and the opponent's battleship lit up with fire.

That was the flash of naval gunfire!

Before he could issue a warning command, 24 grenades flew into his face.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

The shells equipped with explosives suddenly emitted violent flames after being loaded onto the ship.

In an instant, an area was blown to pieces.

Under the previous training and orderly planning, a total of 24 hits were made by the [-] howitzers.

And three of them directly hit the opponent's waterline and caused water leakage.

"Counterattack! Counterattack!"

Under the violent impact of the explosion, Edwin immediately gave the order to counterattack.

But the pirates who had been preparing hastily had already been bombed to pieces under the violent shelling, and they hadn't recovered at all at this moment.

But they don't need to slow down, because the second round of shelling has arrived.

The rate of fire of grenades fired using a charge is many times faster than that of ordinary artillery.

And under Lin Feng's special training, everyone has practiced the artillery reloading action countless times.

Every movement is without a trace of superfluous, and it is also the fastest.

Even if they are blindfolded, they can complete the combat preparation within five seconds.

And here Lin Feng didn't need them to use such a fast rate of fire, it was enough to maintain a round of attacks for 15 seconds.

But even so, the pirates' artillery preparations were still not complete.

The second round of attacks was not so lucky for the Pirates.

A grenade directly passed through the previous gap and entered the cabin, and the violent explosion ignited the explosion together with the gunpowder.

In an instant, the entire battleship burst into flames, and continuous explosions continued to resound through the sky.

When the ammunition depot was set on fire, the unlucky Edwin was also directly swallowed by the flames.

In less than 30 seconds, the first pirate destroyer was declared sunk!

In addition to the focused fire of the Black Coral, the Robin and the two frigates in the back also attacked the remaining ships of the pirate fleet at the same time after getting the angle.

Countless flames emerged from the opponent's battleship, and the pirate fleet didn't even fire a single shell at this moment.

Due to the sudden encounter of the first four warships, the second frigate and the third frigate collided with the wreckage of the first destroyer.

Although the fourth ship reacted quickly and turned around, the two battleships that had already vacated the target space directly shattered the mast of the battleship with a round of focused fire.

A frigate at the tail saw that the situation was not right, and the captain quickly ordered to turn right to leave the fleet and prepare to escape.

Looking at the detached frigate, Lin Feng also showed a smile on his face.

Escape, escape is right.

But you can't let the other party run too smoothly, otherwise it will also arouse suspicion.

"Let the two frigates [-] and [-] go to pursue them, remember to follow the plan, don't kill them, and return after a while."

Soon, Lin Feng's order was conveyed to the frigate through semaphore.

Then two 'small boats' broke away from the fleet and went in pursuit.

The escaped pirate frigate, seeing that the other party sent a fleet to pursue them, was so frightened that it lightened the weight of the ship to speed up and escape.

Throw away everything you eat and drink, including all useless wooden barrels.

As long as they can escape and save their lives, these bottles and cans will be brought back sooner or later.

The two frigates that were ordered to pretend to pursue them returned after chasing for two or three kilometers.

Lin Feng also started to take stock of the current battle situation here.

He didn't think about the loot or anything else. The goal this time was to take down the volcanic island and get the whereabouts of the saltpeter from the pirate station.

Therefore, Lin Feng did not send anyone to salvage the sunken warship.

Anyway, the most important artillery can now be made in the arsenal, and Lin Feng is too lazy to get these inferior things.

Not enough for those surviving personnel, it is still necessary for Lin Feng to salvage them.

After all, it is considered a human resource, and it is also a good choice to work as a coolie if it cannot be recruited now.

It took less than 10 minutes to fight, and more than half an hour to salvage.

Lin Feng killed a total of 670 people and captured 140 people.

However, most of these captives are ordinary sailors, and there are basically no navigators or first mates.

At the same time, the flagship captain of this fleet learned from the survivors that he died in the explosion of ammunition.

This is a pity for Lin Feng, who cannot get more useful information.

However, some people hidden among these survivors should be able to take advantage of it a little bit.

But it's not now. After finishing the detention of the captives, Lin Feng turned his attention to the volcanic island.

In addition to the fleet stationed on the volcanic island, there are more than 3000 people living on it.

They are engaged in planting and mining sulfur or minerals on the island.

In addition to these, there is also a small guard force, but this team is rare in number, only a hundred people.

Facing the giant guns of battleships, they still chose to surrender very wisely.

They could see the battle situation clearly on the island.

In less than 10 minutes, a fleet was directly sunk, and they resisted only if they had brain problems.

To deal with this kind of battleship, it would take at least dozens of 24-pound or more naval guns to cause damage.

The anti-ship guns cast on the volcanic island have a maximum caliber of sixteen pounds.

It's a far cry from the 24-pounder, and there are only five guns compared to the [-]-pounder. The rest are all small guns, which is just an itch for this kind of warship.

Under this gap, choosing to surrender is the wisest choice.

Lin Feng was slightly taken aback by the neatly lined up islands at the pier raising his hands to surrender, but then he smiled.

However, Lin Feng couldn't fully believe the opponent's head portrait, so he sent two teams to the island first to control the situation, and then he went to the island to check for hidden 'assassins'.

After some searching, the people on the island were still rather life-saving, and did not install hidden assassins to attack.

All the people gathered together and put down their weapons.

Quickly set up a prison on the island to detain these people.

There were more than 3000 people on the island, and it was impossible for Lin Feng to take care of everyone, so he only detained the original fighters on the island, such as guards or retired personnel.

As for the remaining miners and farmers, Lin Feng let them stay in his home as they were.

Although given a certain amount of freedom, they can only stay in their own homes under the current situation and are not allowed to move around at will.

Unless it is to get food and drink, it can only be done under the leadership of the crew, otherwise it will be regarded as an 'assassin' and killed on the spot.

It took more than an hour to complete the rectification and control, so that the entire volcanic island was officially in the hands of Lin Feng.
