Welcome, please remember the address of this site: Read on your mobile phone, so that you can read the latest chapter of the novel "The Journey of the Shadow Bear Tibbers"...
On the city defense gun tower in Port Royal, Adjutant Gloves is walking over with a line of soldiers on patrol. He has just taken the soldiers to this city defense fortification by the sea to complete a shift. Now it is His last routine patrol before the break.
Although, now Port Royal, the city belongs to a witch in name, and even his soldiers are already captives of others in name. However, Adjutant Gloves still feels that here, sooner or later It still belongs to the British Empire! Therefore, he still performed his duties with due diligence as usual.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Now, apart from the witches who have the final say in this city, all departments are still in charge of them!
For example, here, the most important city defenses and artillery towers in this Port Royal seaport city are still held by their soldiers, but they no longer fly the flag belonging to the British Empire. If they are sure that someone can deal with those witches, they only need to raise the flag again, and then this place will become a port city in the British Empire!
"Who is over there! Uh... is the brigadier general?"
When they patrolled to the top of the fortifications, lieutenant Gloves discovered that their brigadier general Norrington was squatting in a corner with a pint of rum alone, sipping and leaning. The cannon looked at the scenery that did not exist on the sea.
After signalling the soldiers who followed him to patrol first, he walked to Brigadier General Norrington's side. Then, Gloves looked at the sea. The night was heavy, and under dark clouds, in this weather, There is no sight at all on the sea in the distance! Even the Intrepid and Interceptor in the naval port below can only see the two wind lanterns at the stern.
"Your Excellency, the night is already late, you should go to rest now, leave the rest to us!"
After being silent for a while, lieutenant Gloves still dutifully walked up to the brigadier general and exhorted him that so many things happened today, indeed, no one is in a good mood.
"Oh? It's Groves, you..."
Norrington ignored what the other party was saying, still leaning on the side of the cannon, looking up again and drank a big mouthful of rum before exhaling fiercely.
"Haha... Gloves, in just half a day, we have fallen to this point, where can we sleep?"
He was just promoted to brigadier general a few days ago, and then he immediately became a prisoner today. The ups and downs of this life are really too fast. Isn't he allowed to drink some wine to soothe his depressed mood?
"Your Excellency Brigadier General! Anyway, there is only three short months. Why are you doing this?"
The adjutant Gloves couldn't bear to watch the brigadier just use alcohol to pour his sorrows. Didn't the witch say anything anyway? After three months, let them leave. If this is the case, what else is there to worry about? At that time, sailing out to sea, you can completely get rid of the control of the witch.
"Ha! You still haven't figured it out, Groves, it's not that simple."
Norrington looked at the adjutant, then laughed at himself, and took another sip of wine!
This incident, to Norrington, was a stain that could not be erased for life. Even if three months later, if the witches really let them go, other soldiers and low-level officers might be fine, but he promised Lington is miserable!
Lightly seize power and stay idle, and that's it for a lifetime! On the other hand, it is not impossible to be kicked out of the army, from a brigadier general to a civilian, and even to go to jail for guilt!
Adjutant Gloves looked at the brigadier general and didn't speak any more. After seeing another wave of soldiers changing guards in the distance, he knew that it was late at night and that should be the last wave of changing guards.
Afterwards, he silently stood beside the brigadier general without speaking. He stood silently on the side, and also looked at the sea where there was no sight in the distance.
...
Suddenly, several dull sounds of "swish, swish" came, and then there was a burst of blasts from the sea in the distance, and at the same time, bursts of solid shells slammed on the wall not far from them. The sound of violent impact and the cracking sound of the city wall breaking.
Norrington and Gloves were both refreshed. This is... shelling? Then, they quickly squatted under the retaining wall on the city wall!
For a navy like them who lives in the sea all year round, these sounds are really familiar! Now, someone bombarded Port Royal in the middle of the night? Moreover, the other party is still taking advantage of the darkness, approaching the shelling port?
"Shell attack! Enemy attack!!"
Adjutant Gloves immediately began to shout, and at the same time, the surrounding city walls continued to hear the sound of being hit by shells, and there were bursts of artillery on the sea.
At this moment, the coastal defense turrets of Port Royal also began to noisy at the same time. The well-trained royal soldiers began to rush to their respective gun positions one by one, and began to carry the shells and gunpowder barrels, preparing to reload and counterattack.
"Quick! All artillery will be in place immediately! Ready to fight back!!"
Brigadier General Norrington also began to throw away his bottle, stood up and shouted loudly at the panicked soldiers!
Today, they had just had an accident in Port Royal and were occupied by a witch, and now they are bombarding the port? It would certainly not be their own British Royal Navy. Norrington, as a brigadier general, knew that the response of his navy was definitely not that fast! Then, it can only be the ships or pirates of the enemy country. This is definitely a premeditated attack!
After seeing the soldiers quickly put in place, loaded the gunpowder shells, closed the artillery door, and pushed the artillery out of the muzzle of the city wall, Lieutenant Norrington was relieved. Even if so many things have happened today, his soldiers The combat effectiveness is still there.
Afterwards, he took out the binoculars he carried with him, wanting to see where the enemy was!
It’s a pity that the enemy did not continue to fire after a sudden round of shelling. In addition, there seemed to be no lights on the opponent’s ship. Therefore, under the current weather, he could not see the enemy ship at all. The specific location can only be roughly judged in one direction. Under this circumstance, they can't rashly counterattack, it will only be a waste of shells.
"Brigadier General! Look, there seems to be a boat on the sea? They also put down the boat?!"
Adjutant Gloves suddenly shouted to Norrington, and pointed to the sea near the port, where the shadows of several small boats could be vaguely seen.
Hearing the adjutant's prompt, Norrington hurriedly used the telescope to turn to the direction indicated by the adjutant and looked over. No, it was better to use the telescope, he had already seen it with naked eyes.
Where, on the dark sea, those small boats are actually full of sailors! It can be seen from their inconsistent costumes that they should be a group of pirates?
Are their pirates crazy?
Norrington felt a little unbelievable. These pirates took the cold to come to the port to sneak a few shots to increase their momentum, and even if they had a good time after fighting, they still want to play landing operations with the regular army? Is it true that his Royal Musketeers are so bullied? It doesn't matter if you have been beaten by a witch and have no temper. Now, even these pirates and other cats and dogs come out and want to step on themselves?
"Gloves, immediately lead three hundred people down! Go to the harbor square below, and you must eliminate the pirates who landed!"
After seeing the adjutant leaving, Norrington said to the gun station officer who was on standby: "No. 1 and No. 2 gun positions shoot freely and sink the small boats that are close! The other gun positions are on standby. Once the enemy ship is found, they will go straight. shooting!"
"Yes! Your Excellency!"
An artillery officer quickly took the order to leave. Not long after he turned around, after a while, the more than 20 heavy shore defense guns at the lower positions of the No. 1 and No. 2 guns began to roar. .
Boom~ boom~ boom~!
A burst of cannonballs roared towards the small boat near the port, smashing a column of water. One of the cannonballs even directly hit a hapless small boat, and directly tore it into a pile of fragments, even the one riding on it. The pirates were also blown up into the sea.
At this time, on the invisible black sea in the distance, an arrogant voice was shouting loudly.
"Hahaha! You all feel it, right? That thing, it's in this Port Royal! So, you all hurry up and put down the last two boats, and all of them are for me to find the gold coin! Can't find it! Don't come back when you arrive!"
Captain Hector Barbossa was giving orders with a grinning grin on the Black Pearl. He drove the remaining pirates on the Black Pearl to board the last two boats with him.
Two days ago, the Black Pearl, who was still wandering around at sea, suddenly received a special fluctuation from the cursed Aztec gold coin. After that, the Black Pearl, which was at full speed, rushed to Port Royal. Two full days!
They have been looking for this kind of gold coin that has cursed them for a long, long time.
Although before that, they found most of the gold coins! But...the last one is left!
For this last gold coin, they have been searching for years on the vast ocean, and there is no information at all! And now, they finally received the kind of fluctuation that it transmitted, and it is now in this Port Royal! They will find it soon, this curse will leave them soon!
"Asshole, hurry down! Take me to the shore, to the city!"
Captain Barbossa kicked a drowsy pirate into the boat, then swung his sword and shouted angrily: "Fire!"
The artillery on the Very Pearl roared again, and its fire again finally allowed the defenders on the shore to find the exact position, and then the heavy artillery from the defenders came back! The two solid shells even punched the Black Pearl through two opposite holes, and several unlucky ones were torn to pieces.
It's just that Captain Barbossa didn't mind this. Now people like him are cursed by Aztec gold coins. Under this evil curse, they are now immortal!
Otherwise, he wouldn't be stupid enough to let dozens of pirates land in the port and fight the British who have at least thousands of regular soldiers. When he thought about it, he couldn't die anyway. He went ashore to wreak havoc and search, and then robbed the Aztec gold coins and ran away. No matter how many British people, what can they do?
As long as they are not caught on the spot, as long as they are not put on the fire and burned to ashes, even if they are blown to pieces, they are all immortal existences. This is why Basabo dares to attack a city without fear.
"Gun on the shoulder! Aim! The first row is ready..."
At this time, Adjutant Gloves led two hundred soldiers standing on the harbor unloading plaza. They formed two hundred-man phalanx. Near the city gate behind, there was another hundred-man team standing by.
"Fire!"
Seeing these thirty or forty pirates finally landed charging at them in a messy formation, the adjutant Gloves frowned suspiciously. Although he was a little puzzled by the enemy's stupid behavior, he still Ordered fire.
He didn't know that these pirates looked like so few people, so why would they dare to charge their musketeers phalanx? Could it be that their brains are flooded? Want to die?
Bang~! Bang~! Bang~! Bang~! A volley of neat muskets shot out.
"Second row! Fire!"
Bang~! Bang~! Bang~! Bang~!
To deal with such a small number of enemies, Groves did not ask for three shots at all, but only asked the soldiers in the first two rows to shoot a salvo directly. He believed that only two rounds would be required for these pirates to die. Not left!
Sure enough, after the two rounds of volleys ended, the pirates were all knocked down to the ground by a large number of bullets.
Just when Groves thought that the battle in the port was over and was about to let the soldiers gather in and clean the battlefield, how could he think that the dead pirates who should have been lying on the ground stood up one by one? They can even clearly see bullet holes penetrating their bodies, but what is strange is that there is no blood stain on them?
"Aha! We can't die, brothers! Go!"
The pirates who stood up looked at the panicked royal soldiers on the opposite side, then raised their scimitars with a grinning grin, and once again launched a charge toward the opposing army.
Oh, God……
Gloves gasped! Why is it an undead enemy? What is going on in this world? First was the invulnerable and terrifying witchcraft, now this group of undead pirates? Could this make their Royal Navy play happily?
"The third row shoots! One or two rows withstand! The bayonet lifts flat! Push them back!"
After trying to calm the inner turmoil for a while, Groves still dutifully ordered.
At this time, it is obviously too late to reload! Fortunately, after the witch incident, the hearts and nerves of these people have been tempered to be tougher, so these pirates cannot scare them for the time being.
After another round of shooting was over, the moment the two sides were in close contact, the Royal Soldier Rulin's bayonets stabbed all the robbers who were running over. It's just that even though these pirates have been stabbed into the body with a bayonet, they still look like okay people, and continue to wield their swords to hit the soldiers!
For a time, the two sides were constantly attacking each other. Although there are still many royal soldiers pressing down on the pirates, the casualties are beginning to appear, but it is the flesh and blood royal soldiers!
Gloves was horrified to discover that although these pirates did not have the same desperate magic power as witches, they seemed to be unkillable!
"Stab him to death!!!"
Take a look, the pirate who was grabbed by a few soldiers and fell to the ground with his limbs and stabbed with a bayonet, he still tried to stand up and fight back. What happened? If you stabbed dozens of knives and didn't die, should you break them into pieces?
"Where is my head? Ha, I found it!"
And the pirate over there, whose head was chopped off by a sword, his headless body was touched all over the floor. When he found his own head, he pushed his head back on his neck. Then can you continue to fight? This is too much...
The adjutant had already noticed that these pirates, in terms of strength, they were completely ordinary people, and they were not too outstanding. It only takes two or three soldiers to press the opponent on the ground and beat them! However, no matter how he fought, he couldn't effectively hurt the opponent. In just a while, the royal soldiers had already suffered more than 20 casualties. Groves was frightened and was considering whether to do it now. Order a retreat?
At this moment, the clouds in the sky were blown away by the sea breeze. Then, a ray of moonlight leaked out, which happened to shine on the two sides in the battle at the port.
The pirates who were illuminated by the moonlight immediately changed into another look: they all turned into a hideous skeleton, the tattered body, and the skinless skeletons, they were all a group of them. Skeleton monster? !
That's it!
Groves finally understood, no wonder they couldn't kill them! It turns out that these pirates are just a bunch of undead skeletons...
"Devil! Run!"
I don’t know who opened the head first. When they saw the enemy’s true appearance, the soldiers spontaneously quickly got out of the battle, turned around and ran away. Some people even dropped their weapons directly!
Today, they have gone through an afternoon battle with the witch. They finally calmed down. Now they encounter this monster again. Their fighting will is already low to zero. At this moment, they never want to go with This inhuman monster is going to fight!
"retreat!!!"
Originally, there was a phalanx of a hundred people near the city gate at the back. When the officers of this phalanx were still hesitant to step forward to support, they finally saw the specific situation of the pirates under the moonlight~www.mtlnovel .com~ So, he did not wait for the adjutant Gloves' order, and directly issued the decision to retreat. The hundred of them also began to turn their heads and quickly ran into the city gate.
"Your Excellency Brigadier General? What should we do now?"
On the wall, the officers who had stopped shelling gathered next to Norrington in twos and threes. They were also frightened by the battle below. That group of pirates turned out to be a group of skeletons? How can this be?
"Huh! Why panic? Let the witches handle it. Look, isn't she already here?"
Norrington stopped the commotion of his men and motioned them to look in the direction of the city. On the other side of the street, a young girl floating in mid-air was rushing toward the city gate and port.
This world has really become more and more interesting...
Gee tee, let's take a look, first there was a terrifying witch during the day, but now at night, there is a skeleton pirate who can't die again? This is really interesting! So, let him Norrington take a good look, and see if these witches are amazing? Or are those skeleton pirates who can't be beaten more powerful? If they lose both, then it would be great!
