48 Hours a Day

“Steady!!! Hold your post!!” Billy was running back and forth on the deck, yelling, "Where's the ammunition? When's the next shipment coming in? ”

“On the way, in a minute, Mr. Billy.” A short sailor dragged two boxes of ammunition and ran in sweat.

“Mr. Billy, two more cannons were destroyed and three more gunmen were injured.” Reports have also been received.

“Get the backup on top now. ”

Billy's words had just fallen, less than half a metre from his side, and a shell had broken through the hull, hitting the short sailor who had delivered the shell, whose arm had been completely smashed and he had fallen to the ground to mourn.

“Send him to Vincent's, quick! Others continued firing. ”

It was said that the wounded had been dragged down immediately, and people in the vicinity seemed to have become accustomed to the scene. No one was distracted by the fact that most of the Cold Raven recruited experienced sailors, coupled with the fact that they had been fighting almost all these years, even the rookies were now mature.

“Damn, their guns are more powerful than ours, if only those 24-pound guns were still there.” A gunner wiped the blood off his face.

“Try harder, kill them and get that gold back! ”

Now the busiest man on the Cold Raven is no longer the ship's doctor Vincent, the young boat doctor who once dreamed of becoming a botanist has now fully entered his role, the ship's infirmary is full of wounded, the bed is long gone, the table is full of people, blood is everywhere.

Fortunately, Vincent was well prepared to sprinkle the fine sand collected from the beach onto the ground, thus solving the problem of foot slipping. He had just finished dealing with a pirate who had been shot in the buttocks and saw a short sailor with injuries to his arm being lifted in. Vincent simply checked and found that the bones in the other arm had been completely crushed, so that he could only amputate the limbs.

He took out a piece of wood to get the latter to bite, and then had the injured sailor's hands and feet pressed, while Vincent himself took out the wood saw for the saw, and was about to do it, and remembering Zhang Heng's instructions, he saw the wood and baked it on the candle.

While he was at it, he removed the bars, gave the injured sailor a few more sips of rum, and then raised the saw, “I'll do it when I'm ready. ”

Zhang Heng and Billy, among others, negotiated a response that Walden had been relying on for a long time. This time, the firing squad did not play a sufficient role. Instead, it was suppressed by the Cold Crow, and Walden can't even lift his head on the boat.

But he remained calm, and even though more than half of the gunmen had been killed or injured, he had never given an order to retreat, as the Kent had been firmly upwind in the artillery fire.

This has nothing to do with the skill of the gunmen. It is a purely firepower gap. The Cold Raven and Kent are the same type of battleship, and the firepower configuration is similar. However, due to the lack of ammunition, Zhang Heng had to replace the 24-pound guns on board with 12-pound guns, which makes a gap with the Kent.

In fact, the gunmen on the Cold Raven have played far more than Walden expected, even in comparison to the well-trained Royal Navy.

“We won't last this long.” Billy found Zhang Heng on deck, worried.

The latter killed another musketeer in a red shirt and looked at Annie, "Get ready for a backup plan. ”

“Is this… possible?” Billy still has some doubts.

“We've killed two thirds of the men in the firing squad, and the chances of success are still high, but I need cover.” Zhang Hengdao.

“Is six enough? ”

“Two is enough, more is useless.” Zhang Heng said while sending someone to the captain's office to take out his weapon bag, which contained four wire rifles. Since the wire rifle obtained from Barr played an important role in the capture of the Scarborough, Zhang Heng realized the strategic value of the wire rifle, but at that time he was still under Blackbeard and was not in a hurry to match two more, until this trip, he bought three more from the arms dealer.

This time it was finally useful.

Zhang Hengcat came to the side of the boat with his waist and set up one of them. At such a distance, he also had a good shot at the sliding rifle, but if he wanted a hundred rounds, the wire rifle was definitely more reliable. He aimed at the sailor who was steering the boat before the rudder, “At my command, close to the Kent. ”

The Cold Raven did not hide Walden's eyes. Although he was not afraid to catch a starboard battle, it made no sense to abandon the advantage he had gained so easily that he ordered the helmsman to steer with him.

But as soon as his voice fell, the rudder fell to the ground.

Walden frowned, but didn't pay much attention. Such an accident could have happened at any moment in the battle. First Officer Chris immediately arranged a replacement. However, the guy took over the rudder and then stepped right into the back dust of the old wretch.

“Captain, someone is targeting our sailors at the helm!” Chris was furious and angry.

Walden snorted coldly, "What are you afraid of? There's only one more person across the street. Block them in the front with a human wall. We'll sink them just a little bit longer. ”

Chris received an order, immediately ordered a few sailors around him, and the person who was named didn't look too good, but they had been following Walden for quite some time, knowing what happened to disobeying the latter's order, and saying that going to be a human wall is not necessarily going to die, but if you run away at this time, it will definitely be worse than going to be a human wall.

So they wrapped the rudder and the third sailor to steer the rudder with a hard scalp, and this time Zhang Heng killed the sailor outside first and then the sailor inside at the fastest speed.

The magical shooting across the street made everyone nervous, and Chris rushed for half a day, while the fourth sailor was constantly holding back.

However, Zhang Heng's position on the other side was also exposed and heavily covered by fire, with one sailor covering him and one filling him with ammunition being shot, although he had bought enough time for the Raven and the distance between the two boats was less than 10 metres.

Zhang Heng also switched to another place, and continued to harass the opposite direction with the refilled wire rifle until the two were almost completely attached together. Annie and others hooked the other side of the boat with claws, erected a landing pad, and rushed to the opposite deck with the Pioneer Team in a bouncing rain.
