Chapter 587

On the afternoon of July 3, 1786, the pirate war in the nameless triangle between Andros Island, exsuma islands and Cuba was called "Hamlet war" by later pirates.

Compared with the so-called wars in the mainstream world, Hamlet's scale is not large. He participated in the two camps of the four sides, and only 12 ships were put into battle in total, with an attack defense ratio of 10 to 2 and a gun gate ratio of 328 to 100.

Its specifications are not high. Except that varkiri stands out as an independent group at the top of the cruiser class, other ships are standard class 5 or even class 6.

However, the war is still stubbornly called "war" rather than "sea war" by pirates. The reason is naturally because of the identity of the participants and the form and purpose of the war.

First of all, its participation in the war is quite high, including the supreme pirate king "white flag" Lorraine and the flagship valkiri; Pirate king "Black Prince" Bellamy and flagship Vader; Pirate king "hound" Henry's second fleet; The pirate king candidates the following most powerful evil supernova "beaver" Gini and his beaver Pirate Group.

Secondly, this is the first time since the golden age that the pirate Empire has challenged another pirate king with the combination of supernova and pirate king's sub fleet. It is also the first time that the pirate king has been hung with a black ticket, and it is the first time that a non alliance king has participated in the battle between the two kings without announcement.

The Hamlet war had an incalculable devastating impact on the order maintained by the pirate empire for a century. This alone was far more significant than the baster naval battle, another key war of the same era.

But the funny thing is that [meaning] is not the main reason why the war is remembered by pirates, nor is it a secondary or even important reason again.

Drunken pirates are the least reflective human group in the world. They admire Hamlet only because the survivors describe the war as a textbook of pirate tactics. Even a hundred years later, there will still be evil and continue to benefit from the legend.

At 5 p.m., the sun sets, the sky is burning and the sea is burning.

The battle at sea has lasted two hours.

In the north of the battlefield sea area, walkiri easily tore up the Havana victory, paralyzed the Shazui sea cucumber, scared away the Crystal Mountain coffee, and was leaving the virgin cigar nowhere to escape.

There is a desperate power gap between the supreme pirate king and the strongest supernova.

Ginny beaver is rushing to hell with a galloping attitude. Looking at Lorraine, he still doesn't remember to adjust varkiri's combat readiness level to level 1. Even the current level 2 seems to be a little redundant

The painting style of the waters south of the battlefield is quite different.

The Vida completed a tragic small for large in its first breakthrough.

The brig foremast of the enemy's fulcrum was broken, and it took a whole hour to restore 70% of its original mobility.

The bow of the ship Vida was hit directly, the bow deck was broken, Bellamy's left eye was seriously injured, and the second mate and the captain were both missing.

The chief navigator of Suo Bellamy is closer to the mixed job of navigator and navigation staff. If the missing is the main helmsman, it may become more and more unclear about the success or failure of this round.

Bellamy, who was seriously injured, led her Vida to fight back after being hastily wrapped up.

In the vast sea, the Vida was bleeding from the attack between the two ships, quickly turned the ship's head in a wide range, tried to maintain a speed of 4 knots and made a counter attack from the edge of the battlefield.

The formation of the hound regiment was extremely bad. The plan for the three ships in the plan became rigid due to the loss of brig's mobility. In order to put aside the wounded ship and regroup, the Vida pressed step by step, completely preventing the two ships from getting room to meet.

Brig became a buoy. In the world-class driving skills of the Vida, he was forced to become an obstacle in the center of the battlefield and turned into a screen wall to block the shelling on the other side.

60 to 140 meters!

The Vida was in a circle from near to far, like a cobra with its ventral wings open, swinging and squeezing the space for mobile phones. The warships of the hound regiment could not afford to speed up, so they had to tighten up in the process of facing the enemy, and almost tripped up by brig in the middle.

Each ship has only a gap of more than ten meters. This insignificant distance makes the three ships as bulky and eye-catching as a floating island on the sea. Even the shelling that can't go on the table of the Vida began to be threatened, pouring out firepower to the opponent at a rhythm of three to five minutes.

"Port side shot! Dodge! Fire!"

Boom, boom, boom!

Shells flew out of the two sides' guns and crossed from similar straight lines and different radians.

The Vader was surrounded by a spray of steam, and her counterattack also fell on the sea. One hit the side of the poop building in front of Galen, the other side crossed the face to face, and fell far back on brig's middle deck.

"Two hits, Briggs straight!"

Hearing the watchman's cry, the gunner who threw high turned back and clapped his companion excitedly.

Bellamy looked at the joy of the whole ship, and the slap sounded particularly harsh.

My eyes hurt

The wood thorns pierced through the eye socket have been taken out together with the eyes. Now it is filled with Indian popular medicine mud, mixed and stirred with some sun dried unknown grass, burnt charcoal and wine, and wrapped with bandages layer by layer.

The ship doctor on the ship can only do this to stop bleeding and prevent ulceration, but many extravagant demands don't need to be. Anyway, they are impossible fantasies.

Bellamy is in this state now. The boundary of the new vision is much narrower than the original one. It is dyed with a light red. More importantly, it is pain. Waves of pain wash his head and tear his reason, trying to drive him crazy.

But he can't really go crazy!

With Bastian's exquisite steering, Vader completely occupied the advantage of the battlefield and realized one-to-three encirclement by using wind, waves, valkiri in the distance and brig paralyzed in the near.

Now, the Vida is like a clown dancing on a steel wire rope. It may look gorgeous and calm, but as long as the rope is broken, no matter how good the skill is, it will inevitably fall into the abyss.

And the rope is about to break

The battle has been going on for almost an hour since the first turn.

Brig's rigging was no longer noticeably different. Once she regained her mobility, the entangled thread would be untied, and the two Galens she had stumbled over would soon be free.

They will get rid of the shackles and take advantage of the width and quantity of the sea to launch an attack on the Vida again. They will be entangled and Haunted!

"Really... Unwilling!"

Bellamy gritted her teeth and helped Rumba stagger to his feet.

"Bastian is very powerful..." he whispered, "Vader is just an ordinary Galen ship, but Bastian can let her cut 4 knots against the wind. It can be said that it all depends on his skills, so I can drag you to pursue self-esteem like this."

"Unfortunately... If we had half the valkiri... Maybe 13's artillery strength..."

"17 rounds of shelling, more than 300 shells. 2 direct attacks, 6 abrasions, no sinking, no heavy damage. This is our real strength under high-speed movement."

"I won't resent why God didn't favor us. Apart from white flag and black Baron, I haven't seen a pirate regiment that is good at shelling. It's just... The chance of victory is really far away from us."

"It's time to get rid of useless fantasies!" he clenched his fist. "Before the puppies start their formation, we should keep a distance and leave enough maneuver space for Bastian."

"We should run along the wind. Although it is impossible to get rid of the pursuit of the puppies, as long as we live hard until Baiqi Teng hands..."

"Then you can simply order."

A cold voice suddenly came from under his feet, interrupting Bellamy's monologue like an ice skate.

Bastian stood at the helm and looked up at him. His Topaz eyes didn't look much, but they were enough to understand the surface and express his opinions.

Bellamy's wound hurt again.

He wanted to defend himself, but Bastian wouldn't let him defend himself.

Bastian moved the hand wheel and said, "as you said, giving up is the best way. As long as there is a distance, I am confident to escape to the rising star with everyone."

"For three or four hours, even if Bai Qi lingers any longer, he should take care of the beaver and open a way for us like a hero."

"Bastian!" rumba, who looked simple and honest, said angrily, "pay attention to the tone you speak to the head!"

"Then first pay attention to your tone of speaking to the flagship helmsman." Bastian glanced at rumba. "The deputy head defected. It seems that I am the second cadre in the regiment, not the charge captain."

Rumba was speechless for a moment, and his round face turned red.

Bellamy gently pressed Rumba's shoulder and took a small step forward: "Bastian, time is limited. Just say what you want to say."

"Can't you guess what I want to say?" Bastian smiled. "Running away is the best option, but when did a fool like you choose a good option?"

"The first war of association, pavlomus invited you, and you refused. The second time, Edward invited you, and you refused. Jack invited you not long ago, but you refused."

"I tell you that balintosh is going to betray you. You have been a traitor for four days, but what about you? You just boarded the Vida and took away the people who are willing to follow you, but left the long-running nest to the group of guys who betrayed you."

"We have long been used to it. The 178 people on board, whether alive or dead, alive or missing, have long been used to your stupidity."

"Don't pretend to think about the best choice. It's not for you. Tell us what you want to do? It's just a life, and we can afford it."

Bellamy stared blankly at Bastian, the partner who had worked with him for 10 years and had always won the trust of his pirates with inhumanity and extraordinary skills, his helmsman.

My eyes hurt again

"Will you really die?"

"It's interesting, isn't it?"

"Does everyone think so?"

"Those who don't think so probably stay on elephant trunk island."

Bellamy took a deep breath: "in that case... I have an interesting idea..."
