Chapter 1432 White Flag

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Being harassed by Lin Feng¡¯s sleepless sea wolf tactics for a day and a night, two of the Gareles¡¯ masts were broken and most of the sails were damaged.  Although the crew worked hard to repair it, they could not keep up with the damage.

    The speed of the Garreles inevitably dropped again and again, which made the Pena escorting it miserable.

    In order to drive away the wolves that kept biting their injured companions, the sailors of the Pena were always on high alert and had to control the heavy Karak sailing ship to keep turning. Every one of them was exhausted.

    Domingo saw that this was not going to work. Together with the captain of the Pena, Silva, he had to give these hateful hanging boots a lesson before he could get rid of the entanglement.

    The target they chose was Chen Huaixiu¡¯s fleet, which was following far behind.  These armed merchant ships have thin skin and low firepower, so they are suitable for producing results and killing chickens to scare monkeys.

    ¡°And this can also draw Lin Feng¡¯s fleet away from the Garelais, giving the poor Garelais an opportunity to escape the wolves¡¯ pursuit.

    So when Domingo was entangled with Lin Feng's fleet, he suddenly turned and rushed south towards Chen Huaixiu's fleet.

    They underestimated Chen Huaixiu.  She was able to become the leader of the Shachuan Gang because she was a widow, and it was true that Mr. Zhao helped her up and down the horse.  But being able to secure this position, and no one is unconvinced to this day, relies on his own strength.

    Although she is not as aggressive as Lin Feng, she is calm and decisive, and has the air of a general.

    Last time, because the Portuguese had four large sailing ships, Chen Huaixiu did not dare to fight head-on. He only brought twenty ships to rescue Lin Feng. After reaching his destination, he quickly retreated.

    This time Chen Huaixiu brought all the lucky boats, and he was trying hard to get the lost place back.

    When the Shachuan Gang starts a film with others, it always relies on quantity to win.

    Seeing the large sailing ship heading towards his fleet, Chen Huaixiu smiled coldly and immediately ordered to hoist the No. 4 command flag and the No. 8 battle flag - sail side by side in column, stern shot!

    More than 40 armed merchant ships immediately turned around and sailed southward in parallel columns, keeping a distance from the Pena and firing with stern guns.

    Although each armed merchant ship has two stern guns, they cannot hold up the number of ships. A hundred artillery bombardments at the same time are enough for the Pena to drink a pot.

    Chen Huaixiu was sure that when the Pena was in pursuit, its powerful broadside firepower was completely useless, and she could only rely on a few poor bow guns to fight back.  Our own side will gain a huge firepower advantage.

    And the most important point is that all five masts of the armed merchant ship are hung with canopy sails. It is currently the ship type with the best upwind performance among sailboats in the world.  Chen Huaixiu deliberately ran into the wind to bully the Pena, which had extremely poor maneuverability against the wind.

    After these days of fighting, she has completely figured out the weaknesses of these arrogant sailing ships.  Now that the Pena is alone, why not bully its weaknesses?

    "How come everyone is so shameless!" Once again faced with being hit but unable to hit, chasing but unable to catch up, Domingo was about to be overwhelmed.  It can be regarded as an early experience of the helplessness of the commander of the Spanish Armada when facing the British in 1588.

    Speaking of which, Lin Feng and Chen Huaixiu are also considered peers of the Drakes, so it is normal for them to use the same tactics.

    As a result, the two sides chased for a while, but the Pena had a section of its mast broken and several sails shot through.

    This made Domingo completely understand that those who dare to follow him are not soft persimmons at all.

    And Lin Feng¡¯s fleet did not turn back to help the armed merchant ships as he expected. Apparently they were not worried about this at all.  This made Domingo worry about the Gareles again.

    He was about to give up the pursuit and ordered to turn around and go back to protect Gareles, but he heard the lookout exclaim that two Galen ships were coming to kill him.

    Domingo turned around and looked shocked.  The two galenic ships that had clearly lost their ability to move had actually grown masts and sails again, and were approaching Pena at full speed. They were already less than a kilometer away!

    The lookout on the Pena did not expect that these two ships would follow, so they did not pay attention to the rear at all. They only stared at Chen Huaixiu's fleet and whether any ships would come back from the north. Unexpectedly, two real ships suddenly appeared in the west.  A deadly battleship!

    What¡¯s even worse is that at this time, the Pena¡¯s stern is facing the bow of the two incoming ships, and there is a great danger of being caught from behind!

    But Domingo stared blankly at the two ships and murmured: "It's impossible. How come it was repaired so quickly? What kind of monster is the Jiangnan Group helping?"

    Lin Hongzhong¡¯s face also turned green.  "This is too strong"

    In Lin Hongzhong¡¯s perception, the entire Ming Dynasty was pulling its hips.  This further highlights the strength of Jiangnan Group, which can be called the ¡®Qi Family on the Sea¡¯.Under the circumstances, the Garrelles did not dare to wait for the Pena.  The Pena, which was also seriously injured, could no longer take care of the Gareles. The two ships had to fight independently and use all their strength to drive away the wolves.

    At night, the two large sailing ships were still restless. The wolves continued to approach them as the night fell, and continued to fire artillery and rockets. The hulls of the two ships were riddled with holes, increasing the number of wounds and causing them to continue to lose blood.

    At dawn the next day, the Garreles finally couldn't hold on any longer and raised a white flag!

    Because it has used up all its ammunition and the hull is leaking seriously, there are not enough sailors to rescue it

    Lin Feng's fleet, which was also exhausted, stopped chasing with satisfaction. With an unyielding thief nature, he led his men aboard the Galeles and plundered the ship.

    Ship 104 naturally would not get involved in this kind of thing. It released a reconnaissance balloon, determined the direction of the Pena, and went to support Chen Huaixiu's fleet.

    ps. I haven¡¯t slept well for a few days and I have a severe headache today.  After sleeping all day, I finished one chapter and continued writing.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
