Main text 3051 The Wind of Empire (XII)

The pirates were already beaten and messy in the wind. Facing these heavily armored imperial soldiers, the pirates wearing only thin undershirts were like monkeys that encountered a group of lions. They jumped up and down in fright, and a huge battle ax swept across them. , with fierce and constant death screams, the pirate who had just gained a foothold on the deck was crushed to pieces by the sharp bloody axe.

"Papa!" The corpses of the pirates fell one after another into the cold seawater, causing waves to rise. Although some pirates were not hit by the axe, they were forced to jump into the sea. The cold seawater would at best make them A person is frozen, and there are his own ships nearby. As long as he swims fast, he will not drown, but if he is swept away by the battle ax in the hands of these heavily armored soldiers of the empire, he will basically not survive.

"Come on, you can't retreat!"

The captain of the pirate warship jumped angrily from behind, but even after killing several retreating pirates in succession, he still couldn't stop the retreating pirates from the front. He finally managed to get closer, waiting to capture the imperial warship. Who knows? All the people who climbed up They retreated back again. In the eyes of these imperial heavy infantry who had really rolled over from countless battlefields, these pirates who tried to fight with them were like salted fish jumping on the deck one after another, allowing them to fight like whack-a-mole. Beat him to death, or simply sweep him off the boat.

Pirates make a living by plundering all year round, and they are very skilled in throwing hooks. Often the places where the hooks can be hooked are extremely stable positions on the side of the ship. In order to prevent the prey from cutting off the hooks and escaping, the iron chains behind these hooks, They are usually made of the best steel, and are thickened and very sturdy. Even if a knife cuts on it, it will just leave a white mark.

Some pirates even raised their knives to chop at the connecting hooks. As a result, their knives fell on the iron chain of the hook, and they saw sawdust flying everywhere, and a bright light hit their bodies, and their entire bodies were beaten into pieces. Sieve, the Imperial heavy ballista shot at such a close range, penetrating the deck on the side of the ship like a sharp sword, like a The iron plow drilled like the deck of a pirate sail warship. The one-and-a-half-meter-long crossbow arrow made of steel could still shoot through three or four people in a row after it penetrated the first person's body. The arrow nailed to the hatch of the hull, with someone's intestines hanging on it, was still trembling wildly, and a straight line of flesh and blood was immediately cleared.

The crisp metal collision sound of "clang clang" and the stable hook made the faces of the pirates even more ugly. Facing the imperial infantry who rushed forward in heavy armor, their bravery and the ability to use various kinds of scimitars in their hands, At this moment, it becomes useless, even the heavy machete cuts against the sophisticated Imperial heavy armor. On the top, at best, it was just a spark that made the pirates gasp, but an ax from the Imperial heavy infantry was enough to cut off the waist of any pirate who couldn't dodge. The pirates' faces turned pale, and the gap was too big. , it is not an equal situation at all, whoever comes forward to join in is not looking for death!

"No, I can't go up at all!"

"These Imperial people are so shameless!"

The pirates made all kinds of insults, but the imperial heavy infantry couldn't understand what they were shouting. They just knocked these skinny Aden monkeys off the ship. When the dragon tooth battleship and the pirate spinnaker fast ship on the side were slightly apart Pull away. The Thor cannon on the side fired again, and with a huge roar, you could see a ray of fire penetrating the side deck of the pirate warship. The impact of the huge explosion was like a pair of invisible hands, lifting the deck piece by piece. Flying into the air, all the people and things above flew into the air.

A sail warship burst into flames right in front of the pirates' eyes, and flying sawdust directly splashed onto the decks of the surrounding pirate ships. In less than three minutes, the punctured sail warship was submerged by the surging seawater. , the hull tilted and could only float up and down with the turbulent waves. The Aden pirates above were panicking and wanted to jump into the sea, but then However, the cold water made them hesitate. However, if they did not jump into the sea, the next shot from the Imperial Navy would soon come. The crossbowmen on the Imperial Dragon Tooth ship fired at the pirates undulating in the sea, and there was a fierce burst of fire. After counting, the blood on the sea was splashing like spring water, and the heads of the brave Aden pirates were completely shattered. However, the lower body still rushed forward in a consistent manner, until it hit the bottom of other pirate ships, and then stopped with a thud.

"Abandon the roundup and disperse immediately"

Finding that it was impossible to threaten the two Imperial Dragon Teeth battleships, the pirates ordered to disperse, but everything was too late. "Rumble" A pirate sailboat trying to turn to escape was hit by intensive artillery fire. In an instant It burst into flames, followed by a violent explosion, and countless items flew into the air. The bodies that were blown up in the air fell on the nearby ship like a goddess scattering flowers. , everywhere you look is a hellish scene. Bits and pieces fell everywhere, a thigh here, an arm there,

"Mom, leave now!"

"Asshole, I don't want to be torn into pieces!" The Aden pirates have gone crazy.

With waves of uninterrupted rumblings, the Aden sail warships were hit and exploded. With the huge explosion, the deck and the bridge were completely lifted into the air. In an instant, the top deck of the warship cracked. Due to the huge seam, the entire battleship's deck collapsed due to the pressure caused by the huge heat.

"Tell all ships to use full firepower!"

Casti withdrew his gaze from a distance and ordered the adjutant behind him coldly. The two inserted Dragon Tooth warships attracted the attention of the Aden pirates very well. When the pirates gathered excitedly, Kasti Sti has adjusted the Imperial fleet into a full-scale attack formation, a staggered line of eighteen Imperial Dragon Teeth battleships. rows to ensure that there are no obstacles in front of all the gun ports of each Dragon Tooth battleship. Based on the calculation of twenty Thors on the side of each Dragon Tooth battleship, when all the gun warehouse decks are opened, eighteen ships will be enough Three hundred and sixty thunder gods, these fully populated imperial thunder gods, have been neatly aimed at the same area.

"Rumble" One by one, the pirate warships were hit by the thunder god's fireballs from both sides. The decks of the warships were like tomatoes being squeezed hard. Flames burst out in an instant, destroying everything above, or Throw it high and turn into raindrops all over the sky,

"Swipe"

The deck of the battleship made a crackling sound, and the fire rising into the sky burned everyone's retinas. The gathering of these pirate ships gave Katis the possibility of covering the whole line. Continuous shells hit and exploded on the sea. A series of explosions and smoke filled the air. It was like a large cloud, covering the entire sea surface. The flashing lights flashed with destructive luster in such clouds. The brilliant flashes made those who saw this scene feel chilled. The feeling of the sea breeze hitting your face is like a scorching heat wave

On the deck of one of the two Aden regular navy battleships, a middle-aged general wearing an Aden navy uniform looked at all this with an ugly face, his eyebrows slightly raised. "It's simply impossible to fight. It turned out to be The posture of complete crushing. I didn’t expect that the Imperial Navy also had such extremely fierce tactics. "This is a middle-aged man with flaxen curly hair, wearing a black and red Aden Navy uniform. His eyes were brightly lit by fire from a distance, shining like ice flakes. He is the third branch of the Aden Navy. The Adjutant of the Fleet, Kabloda, was also the one who came forward to implicate the various Aden navies this time.

I originally thought that I could rely on the numerical advantage of the Aden pirates to weaken the combat power of the Imperial Navy. I did not expect that the situation would be tragic. The strength displayed by the Imperial Navy showed that even without Thor, the heavy armor on board the battleships alone was not pirates. Such a rabble can contend

"Sir, if we continue to fight like this, I'm afraid all the pirates will die and they won't be able to capture the two Dragon Tooth warships!" said the voice of a naval officer.

"The strength is too weak. If I had known this, I should have equipped these pirates with more weapons!" Kabloda snorted with a heavy nose. Although the Aden Navy is the master behind the pirates, for these free-range pirates Dogs don’t dare to give completely, and they also have to leave out the possibility that these dogs will bite their owners when they get stronger. As a result, although the pirates have a huge number of warships, they are pitifully lacking in heavy weapons. Most of the weapons in their hands are Aden scimitars. The smooth curved blade surface and the shape of the blade that is most in line with the mechanics of chopping have gained great popularity. Favored by some Aden pirates, but if this kind of weapon were put on a real battlefield, it would be a joke.

"There is no need to continue this battle. Order everyone to evacuate!"

Kabloda stood on the flagship deck that had its sides torn apart with difficulty, holding on to the railing. He paid attention to the battle situation with a solemn face. From time to time, the sky-high flames emitted when the pirate warship exploded flashed in his eyes. The water droplets in the sky rolled up high with the air waves caused by the explosion, and even some sprays fell on him like raindrops, blowing away The Aden Navy uniform on his body was dripping wet. With his rich experience in naval battles, he knew that relying on the Aden pirates to weaken the Imperial Navy had failed. However, the Aden pirates didn't think much of it. Their eyes were completely red." So many people have died, are they all in vain? How can they be evacuated like this? "

"Sir, the pirates refuse to evacuate." Looking at the signal sent back, the Aden naval officer's face changed.

"These stupid guys," Kabloda curled his lips in disdain, raised his hand, and said to the helmsman on the ship, "Since they want to die here, let them die here. There is no need for us to follow." With burial, the battleship turns and we return to the port!"

"Yes!" the helmsman responded loudly, and the two regular warships of the Aden Navy began to turn. The huge hull squeezed the seawater. The sails that were originally lowered to avoid being exposed were pulled apart by ten sailors neatly and were blown by the turbulent sea breeze. Once blown, it turns into a semicircular sphere.

"Look, who are those!" The two main battleships of the Aden Navy suddenly spread their sails. At this moment, they stood out like chickens among a group of pirate warships. They were quickly discovered by the Imperial Navy, and Casti immediately raised hand Looking through the lookout mirror, he recognized the regular battleship of the Aden Navy at a glance. Kabloda, who was wearing the uniform of the Aden Navy general, appeared in the lookout mirror, which made Casti's pupils tighten. General of the Aden Navy! Kasti suddenly became excited. He had fought so many times with the Aden Navy in the waters of Central Asia, and yet he had not even captured a single senior officer of the Aden Navy. It was not because of how tenacious the Aden Navy was, nor because of the senior officers of the Aden Navy. He would commit suicide to avoid being captured, just because the sail-type warships adopted by the Aden Navy are indeed faster than the imperial warships. Every time he sees that the situation is not good, he runs away, which makes Casti very depressed.

"Order, the fleet moves in!" Katis felt loudly, raised his hand, and pointed forward fiercely. The Imperial Navy began to push the wave forward, approaching and firing fiercely.

This time, the Aden pirates finally panicked

"If you don't want to die, leave now!"

As if they sensed the bad situation, the remaining Aden pirate sailboats began to flee one after another. At this moment, of the more than two hundred pirate ships, only sixty or seventy were running away. One by one, flaming warships could be seen. The deck of the ship, as well as the sinking hull, the stern of the ship was raised high, as if it had plunged headlong into the sea, on the rough sea surface. Whirlpools formed one after another, sucking in the struggling pirates nearby. The seawater seemed to surge rapidly. Several jib-shaped fast boats, covered in bruises, crashed into each other in a panic in front of the ferocious waves. Having been completely frightened by the Imperial Navy, he turned the ship around and ran to the island behind.

The Imperial Navy Dragon Teeth warships fired cannons from behind and followed all the way, sending more than thirty pirate ships into the seabed again. They pursued them until they stopped outside the island port. Beyond that, there was the defensive slingshot of the pirate port. scope

"Order all ships to prepare and search! See if you can find anything. If nothing happens, don't disturb me for the time being."

Katis put down the observation glass in his hand, looked away from the two fortress-like cliffs outside the pirate port in front of him, turned and walked towards his bedroom. The cliff in front of him was originally a tall cliff, but now it was dug out by the pirates of Aden. Part of it was empty and one was dug out The hollow caves are like houses in the cliff. The catapults of the Aden pirates are arranged inside. It is of little significance to storm the port. On the contrary, it is the goods that are all over the sea and some people who are lying on the broken wood to survive. Pirates, let the Imperial Navy care more,

Soon, the adjutant knocked on the door of Katis's bedroom and said in a deep voice, "Commander, the Anle reported that they found a dozen Central Asians on a half-sunken Aden pirate ship. , one of them claimed to be the emperor of Central Asia!”
