The 172nd Chapter Encounters Above the Sea (3)

.

"Very good! It's in this direction, raise the muzzle a little higher, pay attention, I'm going to fire!"

Soon, after the helmsman completed the turn, Little Anne ran to the other side of the deck, directed the gunners to raise the muzzle a little too high, and aimed at the three chasing enemy ships, and then ignited the matchlock, then trotted to the next cannon, and then the next...

boom! boom! boom! boom!

...

The artillery on the other deck of the Intrepid roared again, and then a series of hot shells roared again, smashing towards the three Spanish warships in the direction of the side.

"Attention! Shelling!!!"

On the Spanish battleship, amidst the heartbreaking and tragic shouts of the bosun or first mate, the soldiers or sailors began to hide in seemingly safe places.

As soon as the words fell, before the sailors and soldiers had time to find cover to hide, another round of shells hit their heads and covered their faces. Their luck was better this time. Only three or five shells hit the entire fleet, destroying the entire fleet. It was just a little bit of the hull, and most of the other shells missed. They just smashed high water columns on the sea around the fleet in vain.

Their speed... so fast how is this possible

Hilton didn't care about the roaring cannonballs, and it was useless to dodge them. As long as this kind of solid cannonballs hit the target, even if they hid behind the bulkhead, they would be dead. It's fine.

He just stared blankly at the opponent's bloated but extremely sensitive battleship. He even saw the English on the opponent's hull, which seemed to be the Dreadnought haunting near Port Royal.

How could it run so fast, it completely violates the laws of nature! Could it be, did the Brits make some deal with the devil? That's why this ship is so fast

Now, after the opponent has finished firing the shells on this side, the artillery on the other side is probably going to be loaded. Now, are they going to speed up and turn the other side of the deck to face their own side?

"Hurry up! The helmsman turns and keeps his distance. I'm going to use the artillery here again!"

On the Intrepid, after firing all the cannons and seeing that the shelling effect was not very good, Little Annie ran to the other side of the deck, and then loudly gave orders to the helmsman.

Knew it,

Sure enough, it turned again...

Commander Hilton saw that the opponent suddenly started to accelerate, and quickly turned the deck on the other side to the side of his fleet. Their guns had already aimed at the three ships of their own. After bursts of sparks and gunpowder smoke , Countless cannonballs hit the head and face again.

...

"Raise the white flag, let's...surrender..."

After I don't know how many times the opponent's shelling has been withstood, the Spanish fleet finally couldn't bear it.

Soon, under the command of the flagship commander, they raised the white flag symbolizing unconditional surrender on top of their battered hull.

"This... I must be dreaming."

My own small fleet unexpectedly lost in the end in a three-on-one and smooth sailing situation...

They couldn't even touch each other with a shell...

Hilton stood on the bridge of his flagship with a dazed face, watching the Intrepid which was approaching at high speed after deftly drawing a circle, speechless for a long time.

Today, this encounter was the most embarrassing battle since Hilton became the captain of the more than ten years of his naval career, not one of them! He never thought that one day, his own fleet would be surrounded by an enemy warship to control the distance, and was beaten so helplessly that he had to surrender

In the previous battles, they had been stuck in the distance by the Dreadnought, kited, and beaten in circles. No matter what, they couldn't catch up with each other. In the end, in despair, they were sunk by someone alive. battleship!

As for the remaining two warships, after seeing that the victory was hopeless, they had no choice but to hoist the white flag and declare their surrender under Hilton's order. Now they had dropped anchor and lowered the skiff, intending to rescue the crew of the warship which had been ordered to abandon ship.

"Gentlemen, we tried our best, but unfortunately, God seems to have abandoned us..."

Hilton sighed helplessly after looking at the officers behind him with expressions of grief and indignation.

In Hilton's view, what the other party did seemed to be cheating! Forget about the range that is several times higher than ordinary artillery. For these, he can attribute it to the latest weapons of the British. New weapons, it is still understandable that they can shoot farther!

However, the bloated and fat body of the battleship Dreadnought can still run at such a high speed. What is going on? The speed of their battleships actually ran out of the ordinary light scout warships drifting, so what's going on?

Also, who can tell him: Why is the opponent's sail against the wind, the sail of the Intrepid can still bulge in the opposite direction, and they rush towards the opponent with the wind at a high speed faster than himself with the wind? It simply violates the rules of nature, okay? This is not cheating, and it is simply cheating frantically!

Don't talk about setting up a new type of sail, no matter how good the sail is, it is impossible to run so fast against the wind!

Looking at the whole world, there is a ship like the other party, even the magic battleship with the red beard in the rumors, it can't be like this, is it a devil's ship drilled from hell? This world, is it unreasonable? up

well……

However, a defeat is a defeat, no matter how much you say, no matter how much you complain, it's useless.

Looking at the abandoned warship in the distance with its hull still floating on the sea, Hilton closed his eyes in pain.

I hope that the other party can give me and these people a decent ending.

The great Spanish Royal Squadron was once again defeated by the shameless Brit. Moreover, when the other party had only one ship, Hilton could already imagine that when the news came back to Spain, he would become the leader of the entire fleet. Sinners of the Empire!

 …

After the two battleships stopped side by side and put the pedals on, Fleet Commander Hilton led two adjutants to step onto the deck of the Intrepid silently. When he saw that the other party was already waiting for him on the bridge, he immediately He had no choice but to walk up, and soon, he walked in front of the other party, and stood in front of a person who looked like the captain from his attire.

"I am Fleet Commander Hilton. Here, on behalf of our Spanish fleet, I surrender to you! I hope you can give us fair treatment in line with our status!"

After taking a deep breath, Hilton used his sloppy English, lowered his head and handed Norrington his commander's saber.

"Sorry! I thought, I can't accept your surrender!"

Norrington shrugged his shoulders helplessly. This situation is very similar to the situation when he surrendered to the witch aggrievedly in the Governor's Mansion in Port Royal.

It's just that now he accepts the surrender of others, and he feels a little bit of comfort in his heart. Just a little bit, they are both fallen in the world. The two of them can be said to be brothers and sisters now. The high-ranking generals of the two empires have become took a group of witches captive.

"Why don't you accept our surrender, what else do you think? We have already surrendered!"

Hilton's eyes widened in surprise. They have surrendered now, and their two battleships have dropped anchor and surrendered, waiting for disposal. What are these British guys thinking? Do they really want to kill them all?

"I'm sorry, because it's not me who has the final say here, but this powerful lady witch!"

Norrington smiled wryly and shook his head. He didn't think about how to embarrass the other party, so he quickly led the unlucky Spanish general to the witch Anne.

Because, in such a situation, he also felt the same way! Just the day before yesterday, their seemingly powerful more than a thousand elite royal soldiers were not feeling desperate and ashamed when they were beaten by the witch and surrendered. Norrington would definitely not be lighter than this Spaniard .

"this……"

Under the introduction of the British captain, Hilton looked at Anne who was standing aside in surprise. This little girl about eight years old turned out to be the person in charge. Are they witches?

After turning his head to look at Norrington, who closed his eyes and stopped talking, he could only grit his teeth, bravely walked up to the little girl, and bowed solemnly. If you don't express your opinion, then let's let this little girl have the final say, as long as these people allow them to surrender, and they won't kill them all.

"Please accept our surrender, Your Excellency the Witch!"

After finishing speaking, Hilton once again solemnly handed over his saber with both hands.

"It's boring! You guys gave up so quickly, I haven't played enough yet!"

Annie curled her lips angrily and noncommittally. Just now, she was enjoying the fight, and these people actually surrendered. Didn't they want to fight three-on-one aggressively at the beginning?

After frowning, she took Hilton's saber and fiddled with it a few times. Little Annie felt that the weapon was nothing interesting, it was just a broken sword, so she just threw it back.

"Forget it, follow us after you finish packing! From now on, you are my captives, I'm going back to sleep now, goodbye!"

After another day of fishing and bombardment, she felt a little tired and wanted to go back to her captain's cabin to rest.

After yawning, Annie took the twin sisters and ran down the spiral staircase on both sides of the rudder platform. Before going down the last step, she seemed to remember something, and turned her head to warn:

"Your ship followed us to transport a little treasure, and I will let you go when it comes back. Don't try to escape, otherwise, I will definitely set fire to your ship and burn it all down."

After finishing speaking, little Annie ran directly to her own captain's cabin and fell behind, and then the two twin sisters who followed her in closed the door of the captain's cabin.

"This... what is this?"

Hilton looked at the little girl who had entered the captain's cabin below, and then at the saber that had been thrown back in his hand. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

They came here on the Intrepid this time, but they came to surrender... Now, this is over, this is too hasty, right? No one will take over their two ships and monitor their work? Or, just send them It would be better for these defeated people to be imprisoned. This is in line with the formal process!

"Okay, Commander Hilton Fleet, I believe you will get used to it in the future."

Norrington smiled and patted the Spanish fleet commander on the shoulder, comforting him softly:

"You'd better go back to rectify the shipping and repair the ship. Next, you just need to follow our ship. For the rest, you just pretend that nothing happened."

Originally, after losing Port Royal and going out to sea, Norrington had been in a bad mood, but now, he suddenly felt that his life was much smoother.

Sure enough, when I was unlucky, suddenly there was an extra person to accompany me to be unlucky, it was really good! So he decided to go down to the sailor's room, get a good bottle of wine, and have a few good drinks.

"Actually, you didn't lose unjustly. Maybe you still don't believe it. They are witches, really witches! Don't you think it's amazing?"

Jack Sparrow walked up to Hilton's side step by step, turned around, looked at the Spanish senior naval general, and then suddenly pulled out a short-barreled musket with beautiful craftsmanship from the opponent's waist. The handle is inlaid with gold and ivory, and is also carved with exquisite patterns. It looks very expensive and must be worth a lot of money.

"Aha! This gun is very good! Then, I will accept it. In return, I can remind you: If you want to survive, don't even think about running away! Otherwise, some terrible things will happen! Don't forget!"

After finishing speaking, Sparrow put the gun back into the holster around his waist, and then walked below the deck, and ran into some cabin. He was in a good mood today and made another fortune, so he also decided to find Norrington for a drink or two.

"Oh! Please! What do you want to do with looking at me like this? I'm still the same as you, but I'm still a prisoner! Facing those witches, I'm also desperate..."

Seeing the Spanish officer looking at him helplessly, Basabo waved his hands impatiently and said.

He, Captain Barbossa, is still a prisoner himself. How can he care about the Spaniard in the following days, and he will lead these witches to search for the treasures he has hidden for many years.

In his opinion, he was much more hopeless and helpless than the Spanish officer! Not only was he cursed, and he didn't know when he would be able to untie it, but he was also forced by a group of greedy witches to find the treasure he had saved for many years. It was all his money! () "Shadow Bear Tibbers' Journey to the Plane" only represents the author Shadow Bear's point of view.
