Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 201: Naval battle (1)

   The reputation of Zifan pirates is growing in this sea area. They have defeated the Roman army in Sicily. I don't know how many merchant ships were robbed by them. They are the most fierce pirates nearby. Almost all of Levi’s ships were robbed by them.

   Hearing the news of the Zifan pirates, the guards were not nervous, but excited.

   They are also considered battle-tested, how can they be afraid of these little pirates?

   "Notify everyone, prepare for battle, order to turn the bow of the ship, and prepare to lure the enemy."

   Getta said to a bugler beside him, and the bugler immediately blew the crooked bronze horn.

   The sound of the copper horn resounded through the entire ship, and all the guards immediately started to act.

   They put on armor, took up shields and daggers, put their javelins on their backs, and waited quietly in the cabin.

   Even some of the oarsmen stopped and began to put on their armor, preparing to participate in the battle.

   The entire ship made a big arc and began to turn backwards.

   At this moment, the three-bladed ship behind suddenly changed its course and directly collided with the Black Pearl, which was turning.

   The sharp copper horns reflected golden light in the sun, and some pirates yelled arrogantly on the bow of the ship.

   "No, it's about to collide, sir, go back to the cabin first, or you may fall into the sea."

   said the captain.

   Getta nodded. Knowing that he was a duck, he got into the cabin.

   The captain kept issuing orders, adjusting the course of the ship, trying to minimize the damage caused by the collision.

   "Boom!"

   The two big ships collided heavily, and Geeta and others only felt that the ship had a huge earthquake, and some people fell directly to the ground, but fortunately, they were in the cabin, so there was no need to worry about falling into the sea.

   "Let's release the arrow! Give me the arrow!"

   Getta roared angrily, he was quite sure that these were here to rob the ship.

  The western five-layer slurry ship dug shooting holes, and inside is equipped with a large number of ballistas.

  Some guards immediately twisted the bowstrings and put on a rocket as thick as a javelin.

  The arrow of the rocket is covered with hemp coated with sulfur and asphalt. This kind of giant arrow can shoot into the hull of an enemy ship and burn.

   After igniting the rocket, the rocket immediately burned and gave off a pungent smell.

"boom!"

"boom!"

   "……"

   After smashing the percussion hammer, the burning giant crossbow arrows fiercely shot at the three-layer slurry ship.

  In order to prevent moisture, some boards of ships are often coated with flammable materials such as resin and pine tar.

   A large number of arrows hit the three-layer pulp pirate ship, and the pirate ship immediately lit up heavy smoke, and some places were already burning, and the pirates on the deck were screaming.

Some pirates started fighting the fire, some pirates hooked the Black Pearl with a hook, and several pirates picked up a long hook and sickle, which is a sharp weapon like a sickle, only tied to a long pole. , Was a weapon of naval warfare at that time.

   They waved their hooks and sickles, and cut over the ropes that tied the sails.

   The captain watched all this quietly, but he didn't stop it.

   After several efforts, they cut the cable on the Black Pearl, the huge sails fell off, and the speed of the Black Pearl immediately dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.

   The pirates cheered, and some yelled arrogantly, thinking about how to retaliate against the sailors.

   The pirates desperately pulled the hook, and the two big ships got closer and closer.

   "You go and set arrows, and you have to cut off those hooks."

   Getta said to the sailors.

   This is not the time to expose the guards, lest the pirates turn around and flee.

  Those sailors stepped forward one after another, and some picked up their axes and chopped them off like those tight ropes.

  Some used strong crossbows to shoot at the pirates on the deck of the three-oar ship, and one arrow shot at the pirates on the deck.

   Because of their condescending, the pirates had nowhere to hide, and several pirates were shot with crossbows.

   The pirates cursed, and some counterattacked with javelins, but because of the protection of the boat gang, only one sailor who chopped the rope was shot.

   But the two ships are getting closer and closer, and finally they are close together.

   At this moment, a famous pirate jumped from the tower of the three-story ship, and then stepped heavily on the Black Pearl.

   Looking at the sailors who seemed a little dazed, the pirates were like looking at helpless little white rabbits. They laughed cruelly and made all kinds of foul language in their mouths.

   "Today we must take your skin off."

   "No, I want to explode your chrysanthemums."

   "……"

   then killed the sailors, but he didn't realize that these sailors didn't seem to be afraid at all, but pity in his eyes.

  Some other pirates used hooks, and some connected pedals to the Black Pearl one by one, and then rushed to the Black Pearl despite the bumps.

   Seeing this, Getta said with a sneer: "The first and second hundred people attacked and let the sailors retreat."

   Hearing this, the two centuries, who were already hungry and thirsty, immediately rushed out of the cabin and killed the pirates.

   The pirates were caught off guard by the guard who suddenly rushed out. The guards were heavily armored and had steel swords in their hands.

   quickly killed dozens of pirates who had washed up on the deck.

   Seeing this, the other pirates were shocked, how could there be such a guard on this ship.

   So they fled back desperately, and then yelled in their boats, all kinds of foul language made some of the guards angry.

   But at this time they can only endure, because the big ships are getting closer and closer.

   At this time, the speed of the Black Pearl was greatly reduced, and it was chased by the pirate ship like a helpless girl.

   "Notify those ballistas~www.novelmt.com~ that they only shoot the three-layer paddle boats and are not allowed to shoot the purple sailboats. I must capture this boat today."

   Getta said with a sneer.

   "Yes, sir."

   Seeing those ballistas that kept firing at the three-layered oarboat, some of the three-layer oarboat even emitted thick smoke.

  Lessix was not only not angry, but smiled and said, "It seems that our enemy is very tenacious."

   "It's just a dying struggle."

   Pilos said cruelly.

   Lysix agrees very much, no matter how tenacious this ship is, how could it be the opponent of so many pirate ships.

   The two fleets approached quickly, and Lysix was even imagining their desperate faces.

   "The archer is in front, the rocket prepares, and the target is the sail of the three-layer paddle boat."

   Getta continued.

   After receiving Geta's order, the archers immediately stepped forward and stood on both sides of the ship. They bent their bows and set up their arrows, aiming at the three-bladed ship coming from both sides.

   The people behind ignited rockets for them, and each rocket burned.

   "Fall arrows! Give me arrows!"

   Getta said.

   The archers immediately let go of the bowstrings. From the height, rockets shot at the sails. The sails were so large that some rockets could easily hit the sails, and the sails immediately ignited fire.
