v2 Chapter 225: Coral island

? After the people on the ship are awake, the Jackdaw no longer has the problem of understaffing, and the artillery on the ship finally has a place to use it. However, under the current conditions of the Jackdaw, although the cracks and leaks on the ship are basically blocked and no longer affect sailing, it takes a lot of time to fully repair it. The main thing is the lack of sufficient materials. The repair work can only be carried out after returning to Nassau.

Therefore, it is very dangerous to fight in the current state of Jackdaw.

At this pre-war meeting Difraina, Billy, Annie, and Harry were all there, especially the latter. When dealing with the treasure ship before, he could only listen to the sound with the chef Ramsey in the kitchen. This also It became his most frustrated thing. I never thought that I could still participate in such a pre-war meeting that only high-level officials can participate in. I couldn't help but be excited. Although he was not allowed to speak by Zhang Heng, he couldn't stop him. The excitement was almost overflowing on his face.

In contrast, Billy's look seemed very guilty. He drank too much alcohol last night, but it was not useful at the most critical time. He failed to fulfill his responsibilities. After waking up, he wanted to blame and resign as the helmsman. , But was retained by Zhang Heng et al.

No one on this ship is better suited to be a helmsman than Billy. Difraina still prefers to be a quartermaster. Prior to this, Billy has also been a professional player. You ca n’t overrule all his previous credits because of one thing, of course. There are also penalties, and Billy's spoils will be halved in the next three times, but he also has an additional share bonus, which is similar to that of an ordinary sailor.

Now that he was back at the helmsman, he said, "Are you sure they will come after us again?"

"It must be." Zhang Heng was very sure. "Before they separated two ships to chase us, they obviously wanted to wipe us out, but we escaped because of the sudden storm, but they must have passed after last night. All the pirate ships on the island have been sunk. In this case, you only need to leave one or two ships to stare at the people on the island. The remaining ships can continue to hunt us. After all, we were seriously damaged before we left Parrot Island. Only less than half a day has passed, and if they set out now, they are likely to catch us halfway. "

"But if they choose a few ships to act together, wouldn't we just throw ourselves into the net?" Difraina asked.

"This possibility is very small. From the previous encounters, the opposing commander is a very powerful guy. He should be able to realize that even if we want to return to Nassau, we may choose to detour from the chaser behind us, so they are the best. The choice is to scatter and search.

"Our hull was severely damaged, and if we were fighting head-on, we wouldn't be too long. They would be able to deal with us even if we were separated. In this case, I believe their commander would be willing to take a little risk and kill us."

Zhang Hengton paused, and then said, "The place where the coral island is two hundred nautical miles east of Parrot Island is exactly in the same direction as Nassau, but it is more northerly than Nassau. We wait here for a day. If I The speculation is wrong. The people in the navy act together and they should chase directly in the direction of Nassau. This will pass us by and we will not encounter any danger. On the contrary, if there is no problem with my inference, they will expand When the search area is reached, there will be ships here to meet us, and when we take it down, we can solve the problem of fresh water and food in one fell swoop. "

"What to do? My hull is really badly damaged, and I doubt if we can survive a high-intensity battle," Billy worried.

"This is why we need an island." Zhang Hengdao, "Actually this is similar to our previous strategy for dealing with the Spanish treasure ship. We first disassembled the artillery on the ship and moved it to the island. Then we used jackdaw The USS guided the ship into the attack range of the artillery, and then launched an attack directly from the island, so as to avoid damage to the hull caused by the battle. "

Zhang Hengzhi's all such confidence was because the system heard from his ears previously suggested that his sailing skills had been upgraded from lv2 to lv3, but at that time he was so absorbed in it that he ignored the news and waited for the storm. After that he noticed a change in skills from the character panel.

Previously, he drove the Jackdaw into the navy's blockade at the port. The tremendous pressure also forced his potential. His helm technology produced a qualitative leap. After successfully upgrading to lv3, he now controls the Jackdaw again. This feels like an arm commander, and is sure to lure the target to the coral island without being attacked much.

However, the key to the success of this plan is that in addition to Jackdaw being able to lure the target into the range of the artillery attack, it is also important that the artillery manipulating the artillery successfully kills the opponent before the target is aware of it and flees. Outside of the attack range, there is no time for Jackdaw to return to the island and reload artillery before chasing.

"Go and see the terrain there first, there should be a way to solve this problem." Zhang Hengdao.

The navigation chart of the early 18th century is not a little bit worse than the later generations. There is no satellite positioning, and the shape of the islands is also very rough. In fact, there is basically no other useful information except a name and approximate distance. information.

Fortunately, Jackdaw was very close to it, and after about half a day, everyone came to the small island.

Zhang Heng took Anne and others to row a boat around the island first, and UU read the book www. uukanshu.com the red-haired girl said, "I finally know why it is called Coral Island."

"Speaking of which, there are indeed many more corals in other places." Billy also said that everyone along the way had seen a lot of corals of all colors, but what attracted Zhang Heng was hidden in the water. Those coral reefs.

"Perhaps we have a way to leave the ship within the range of the artillery attack." Zhang Heng said.

"You want to use the reefs here to run the ship aground? This is a way, but we are also facing such dangers. We should not have time to explore all the reefs now."

"It depends on the waterline of both of us. Our ships are about the same size, but our ships will become lighter after the artillery is removed, and those gunners, and their disembarkation will further reduce our weight. Everything else on the boat, including food and fresh water, that brought weight was moved to the island so that we can safely pass through that reef area. "
