Chapter 2
On the evening of June 1st, about an hour before the sun sets, in a desolate little bay called Good Night on Jersey , The cruise ship is setting sail . At this moment, the fog is everywhere, and sailing out of the sea is very dangerous, so it is the most beneficial for escaping. The people on board were French, but the ship belonged to a small British fleet that seemed to be stationed at the eastern end of Jersey for alert. The command of the fleet was Prince Turdoveni of the Bouion family, and the cruise ship was on his command to carry out an emergency and special mission.
This cruise ship is registered as the Giant Sword in the Pioneer Association. It looks like a cargo ship, but it is actually a warship. It is as bulky and peaceful as a merchant ship, but you must not be fooled. It is built for two purposes: tricks and force. If you can cheat, you will cheat, and if you can't cheat, you will fight. In order to perform tonight's mission, the second-level cabin is equipped with thirty large-caliber short cannons. Perhaps considering the storm, perhaps to make the ship appear warm and friendly, the cannons were hidden, fixed by three iron chains, and the front body leaned against the blocked hatch, and nothing could be seen from outside. The porthole was blocked and the hatch was covered, as if the cruise ship was put on a mask. The regular cruiser only sets cannons on the deck, and this cruiser designed for surprise attacks and traps has no cannons on the deck. We just saw that its cannons were set in the second-level cabin. The Giant Sword is thick and short, but it is extremely fast.Its hull is the strongest among the British Navy and its combat effectiveness is almost no less than that of a destroyer. It has no rear mast, only a small mast with a simple small mast. The shape of the rudder is quite particular, very rare, with only one almost unique curved rib, which the Southampton shipyard spent five hundred pounds on.
The people on the ship were all French, including exiled officers and abandoned sailors. They are all selected: good sailors, good soldiers, and good royalists. They worship three things: ship, sword, and king.
In addition to the crew, there is also half a naval infantry battalion on the ship, and they can log in if necessary.
The captain of the giant sword is Count Bouva Beltro, who was awarded the Order of the Knights of St. Louis and was an outstanding officer in the old Royal Navy. The first mate is the Knight of Ravierville, who once commanded Osh as Sergeant in the Royal Guard. The driver was the most savvy helmsman in Jersey, Philip Graquar -
① French general (1768-1797), who defeated the exiled nobles who landed in France (1795).
People guessed that this ship was going to perform an unusual mission. Indeed, a man got on the boat just now, with his expression as if he was going to do something special. He is a tall and strong old man with a straight body and a serious face, looking old and young, and it is hard to guess his age. Although this kind of person is old, he is energetic, with white hair and bright eyes. He is forty years old in terms of energy and eighty years old in terms of prestige. When he stepped onto the boat, the coat he wore to go out to sea was slightly opened, revealing the wide trousers named Bragu Bula, boots with legs and goatskin top inside. The face of this top was It is leather inlaid with silk lace, and the inner part is thick hair. This is the outfit of the Brittany farmers. This old-fashioned Brittany top has two uses: festivals and labor. It can be worn on both sides, either with fur faces outward or embroidered faces outward; it usually has animal skins, but it is dressed on Sundays. The old man seemed to have been wearing the peasant costume for a long time, and his knees and elbows were worn, as if he had added to the authenticity of this intentional creation. The coats worn to the sea are made of coarse materials, which are very similar to the torn clothes of a fisherman. The old man wore a new round hat. The top of the hat was very large and the brim was very wide. He pulled the hat down like a country man, and inserted a sign ribbon on one side of the hat, just like a soldier. The old man pulled his hat down like a farmer, neither strap nor sign.
Jersey Governor Barcaras Lord and Prince Turdoveny personally sent the old man to the ship to settle down. "The spy of the princes and princes, who had personally arranged the old man's cabin for the king's eldest brother, Earl Artova, to protect the king's eldest brother, and even followed the old man with a box in thoughtful and respectful manner, although he himself was an authentic nobleman. He bowed deeply to the peasant as he left the boat and Lord Barcaras said to the old man: "I wish you success, General. "Prince Turdoveni also said, "Goodbye, cousin." "
"farmer", the crew immediately used this name to call the passenger in a short conversation. They didn't know more, but they understood that the farmer was not a farmer, just as their warship was not a cargo ship .
The wind is not strong. The Giant Sword left Good Night Bay, sailed through Bly Bay, and sailed at the wind. After a while, it gradually shrank in the darker night, and finally disappeared completely.
A hour later, Jelangpur returned to At the home of St. Ellie, through the messenger of Southampton, a quick letter was sent to the Earl of Artois, the Duke of York's headquarters:
: Your Excellency: Have set out. Success is in sight. Within a week, the entire coast from Grandville to St. Marlo will be Burning.
Four days ago, the representative of Marth Province who came to Grandville to inspect the Cherbourg Defense Forces ①Priwell, who had received a letter from a secret envoy, with the same handwriting as the previous express letter, and the content is as follows:—
① That is, the National Convention dispatched special commissioners from all over the country and in the army.
represents citizens: the giant number-sealed warship with hidden turrets will set off at high tide on June 1st and send a person to the French coast. The characteristics of this person are as follows: tall, Older, white hair, peasant costumes, noble hands. I will tell you in detail tomorrow. He will land in the early morning of the second day.Notify the cruise team to intercept the warship and behead the man.
2 The ship and passengers shrouded in the dark
The Giant Sword did not sail to the south to Saint Caterin, but instead headed north and then went west, sailing decisively between Serke Island and Jersey. The strait of the Trek Pass. There were no lighthouses on both sides of the Taiwan Strait at that time.
The sun has completely gone down the mountain. The night is dark, darker than the average summer night. It is a moonlit night, but thick, unlike summer but autumn clouds that obscur the sky. It seems that it only appears when the moon sinks in the sky. A few dark clouds hang on the foggy sea.
This deep darkness is a god-given opportunity.
The intention of the driver Graquar was to go around from the right side of Jersey and the left side of Gaelnesi, and sailed boldly between Hanoai and Dover reefs, and asked a certain on the coast of Saint Marlo. A harbor. This route is longer than the route to the Mangier Reef, but safer, as the French patrol's guard focus is usually between Saint-Ellier and Grandville.
If you have a good wind and nothing unexpected happens, all the sails will be raised, Graquar is expected to reach the French coast before dawn.
Everything went well; the giant sword passed through the corner of the nose. It was almost nine o'clock, in the words of the seaman, the weather began to get angry. There was a storm, but fortunately it was a good wind. Although the waves were big, they were not fierce. However, sometimes the waves hit the bow.
The "peasant" who was called a general by Lord Barcaras and a cousin by Prince Turdoveni, paced peacefully and seriously on the deck, walking freely, as if he did not feel the bumps of the ship. Sometimes he took out a piece of chocolate from his coat pocket and broke off a small piece to eat. Although he had gray hair, his teeth were still intact.
He doesn't talk to anyone, sometimes only says a few words to the captain. The captain listens respectfully, as if he thinks that the passenger has more authority to command than himself.
Under the cover of thick fog, the Giant Sword cleverly traveled along the long cliffs on the north slope of Jersey, sometimes close to the shore, because between Jersey and Serke Island is the terrible Pierrek reef. Graquar stands in front of the rudder, pointing out Lagrave Derek Reef, big nose corner. Plemon Reef; the boat travels between these reefs, which can be said to be exploring and moving forward, but it is very safe. The helmsman seems to be in his own home, knowing the ocean well. There is no light on the bow of the Giant Sword, for fear that it will be discovered in this surveillanced sea. The heavy fog is a chance to be thankful. When the ship arrived at Da Etak, thick fog was filled with it, and even the tall stone pillars were difficult to see clearly. Only the Holy Uang Bell Tower was ringing ten o'clock, which indicated that it was always a good wind. all the best. The waves became rough due to being close to La Corbier.
Short after ten o'clock, the Earl of Bouvabeltro and the Knights of Ravierville sent the old man dressed in a peasant back to the cabin, which was the captain's own cabin. When the old man entered, he whispered to them:
"You know, gentlemen, you must keep it secret. Stay silent before the outbreak. Only you know my name here."
"We will keep our mouths tight." Bouvabeltro The Count said.
"And I, even when facing death, I will not say it." said the old man.
Then he walked into the cabin.
Three-way exchange The nobles and civilians who were mixed together
The captain and the first mate returned to the deck, walking shoulder to shoulder, while talking. They were obviously talking about that passenger. Below is the general content of the conversation that was blown into the darkness by the sea breeze.
Bova Beltrollo approached Ravierville's ear and whispered:
"Let's see if he can be a military leader."
Ravierville replied:
"He is currently a prince."
" is considered "
" is a noble in France, but a prince in Brittany. "
" is like the Ratra Muwai family and the Roon family. "
" He is their ally."
Boois Beltro said again:
"In France, in the king's gorgeous carriage, he is a marquis, just like I am an earl, you are riding."
"The era of gorgeous carriage is long gone." Ravierville shouted Say, "Now we are in the grave."
is silent.
Bouva Beltrop then said:
"I can't find the prince of France, so I have to find Prince Brittany."
"No spotted geeks... no, no eagles, so I have to find a crow."
"I would rather have to find a crow."
"I would rather "Babeltro said.
"Of course! There are sharp mouths and claws."
"Let's take a look."
"Yes," Ravierville said again, "we should have a military leader. I agree with Dandeniac's opinion : Military Leader and Gunpowder! Yes, Captain, I know almost all military leaders, talented and unsavvy, yesterday, today and tomorrow, but no one has the war talent we need. In that In the ghostly areas of Wanda, what we need is a general and a prosecutor. We must disturb the enemy, fight with them for mills, bushes, ditches and five sons, make trouble with them, use everything, seize everything, kill more people to make a difference, and not fight You can't be lenient. In the peasant army, there are only heroes, no leaders. De Elbe is worthless, Lesguer is sick, Bonshang is kind-hearted, but this is stupid. Laro Shijaklan is a good second lieutenant, Shields is good at fighting the plains, not good at guerrilla warfare, Caterino is a childish coachman, Stolfry is a cunning hunting ground guard, Beral is incompetent, Blanville is ridiculous , Charlett is abominable, and the shaver Gaston, it's so fucking inexplicable. If the barbers were asked to command the nobles, then what's the difference between us and the republicans? Why should we argue with the revolutionaries? "
" This is because the hateful revolution has also spread to us. "
" France is infected with scabies. "
" The third level of scabies." Bouva Beltrop said, "Only Britain can get us out of it Dilemma. "
" There is no doubt that Britain will succeed, Captain. "
" The situation was not very good before this. "
" Yes, there are hillbillies everywhere. Under the monarchy, de Moleverier Mr. Stofry, the former guardian of the hunting ground, became the general who commanded the entire army. Under the republic, Pash, the son of the janitor of Duke de Castries, became the minister. It was really a fair match! The two sides of the war in Vandy It's really weird, one side is the brewer Santel, and the other side is the barber Gaston! "
" Dear Ravierville, this Gaston, I think it's not bad. When he fought the battle of Gaston, He had good command. He asked the three hundred Blue Army to dig a hole for himself, and then quietly shot them all to death. "
" wonderful, but I will not be worse than him. "
" That's of course . So do I. "
" The great act of war needs to be accomplished by the nobles." Ravierville also said, "War is the knight's business, not the barber's business."
" However, there is also ability in the third level People, such as Joli, the watchmaker. He served as a sergeant in the Flanders' Legion and is now the leader of Vonde. He commanded a group of people along the coast. He had a son who was a republican. His father was in the White Army, his son was in the The Blue Army fought a war face to face. The father captured his son and shot him in the head, "
" this person is not bad. "Ravierville said.
" Brudeau of the Royalist Party. "—
① Ancient Roman politician, who was a close confidant of Caesar and , and later participated in the assassination of Caesar.
"But those who were named Cocro, Jean-Jean, Muran-Murran, Focal , the name Bumi, and the person who asked Haopu to command it, after all, it was intolerable. "
" Dear Knight, aren't the enemy also angry? We are all civilians here and their nobles there. The party without trousers was actually commanded by the Earls of De Conklo, Viscount de Miránda, Viscount de Boernan, Earls de Valens, Marquis de Gusti and Duke Biron. Do you think they will be happy? "
" is really a mess! "
" and Duke De Charter! "
" Son of Equality②.Oh, when will this guy become king? "—
③Philippe-equality, that is, Louis-Philippe-Joseph-De-Orleans Duke, his son Duke of De Charter, who served as King of France in 1830-11848- Philip.
"I will never be able to be. "
" He is walking towards the throne, relying on sin. "
" But his bad habits made it difficult for him to get what he wanted. "
was silent again. Bouva Beltro continued:
"He wanted to make up with the king, and he came to visit the king. I was there, at Versailles, and someone spitted on his back. "
" from the top of the big staircase? "
" Yes. "
" works well. "
" We call him Bourbon with ulterior motives. "
" He has a bald head and abscess. He is the new king, bah. "
Ravierville continued:
"I was with him when I was in Wusang. "
" on the Holy Spirit? "
" versus "
" If he obeyed the confidence of Navy Commander Orvilier, the British would not be able to get through. "
" Yes. "
" Is he hiding in the bottom cabin? "
" is not, but it can be said that. "
So Ravierville burst into laughter.
Boova Beltrollo continued:
"Some people are fools, Ravierville, the Blanville you mentioned just now, I know him, I've seen him. Initially, the peasant's weapon was spear guns. He probably wanted to train the peasants into spear soldiers and let them practice oblique and straight pricks. His dream was to make these savages a regular army and teach them how to break the corners of the square formation and how to form a hollow square formation. He used the old military terms to say, "He did not talk about the squad leader, but used the title of Louis XIV to refer to the squad leader." He stubbornly wanted to team up these poachers. He had some regular companies under his command, and the non-commissioned officers of the company lined up in circles every night. The sergeant of the first company whispered the command and the reverse command to the chief officer who served as the deputy, and the latter passed it to the next person, so - In the past, it was passed to the last Shangguan. A non-commissioned officer was dismissed from his post without standing up and taking off his hat and accepting the order. You can imagine if this method works. This fool doesn't understand that it is impossible for farmers to deal with farmers in the way of a farmer, and it is impossible to turn a rough village into a soldier. Yes, I know this Branvillier. "
They took a few more steps, each thinking about their own worries.
talk continued again.
"By the way, did Pierre really beheaded to death? "
" Yes, Captain. "
" under Kong Dai City? "
" was shot in the Palmar camp. "
Bouva Beltro sighed:
" Earl de D'Earl. This is our people, but on their side. "
" I wish him a good journey! "Lavierville said.
"Where are the women?" Where are they? "
" in Trieste. "
" is still there? "
" Yes. "
Ravierville shouted:
" Hehe! Republic! How much damage can a small thing cause! This revolution was nothing more than a deficit of millions of francs. "
" must be wary of small things. "
" is really terrible. "Ravierville said.
"Yes, Laru Ali is dead, and Didresne is a fool. Those bishops are pitiful agitators, such as Bishop Kusi of La Rosher, Bishop of Bopusa Saint-Oler of Poitier, and Bishop of Merci of Luzon, who is de Eischa Madame Seri's lover..."
"You know, her name is Serwanto, and Eschaseri is the name of that land. "
" and the fake bishop Agra, who is the native priest from somewhere. "
" is Dole's. His name is Jilao DeFolville. He is brave, he is fighting. "
" When you need local soldiers, you can only teach the earth! A bishop cannot become a bishop, and a general cannot become a general! "
Ravierville interrupted Bouvabeltro and said:
"Captain, do you have the Monitor in your cabin? "
" Yes."
"What is going on in Paris at this moment? "
" "Adair and Boland", and " Cave ". "
" I really want to go and have a look. "
" you will see. We will be in Paris a month later. "
Bouva Beltrop pondered for a moment, and said:
" not later than one month. This is what Mr. Windham said to Lord Hude. "
" So, the captain is not a mess. "
" will be fine, of course, if this war in Brittany is fought well. "
Ravierville nodded and said:
"Are our naval infantry going to land, captain? "
" If the coast is in our hands, log in, otherwise you won't log in. As for war, sometimes you have to break through the door and sometimes you have to sneak in. When fighting a civil war, you should have a fake key in your pocket. Adapt to the situation. What matters is the military leader. "
Bouva Beltro continued thoughtfully:
" Ravierville, what do you think of the Knights of Dyerzi? "
" young? "
" vs. "
" to be the commander? "
" vs. "
" He is good at fighting positions on the plains. As for the jungle, only farmers are familiar with it. "
" Then you can only accept General Stouffry and General Caterino. "
Ravierville thought for a moment and said:
" There must be a prince, the prince of France, the prince of the royal family, the real prince. Why "
"? The princes are all…”
” cowards. I know this, Captain. But he can make the stupid guys widen their eyes. "
" But, dear knights, the princes refused to come. "
" Then don't want them. "
Bouva Beltro made a mechanical action, covering his head tightly with his hands, as if he was trying to squeeze out some idea from it. He also said:
"Anyway, let's try this general. "
" He is a great nobleman. "
" Do you think he can do it? "
" as long as he is good. "Lavierville said.
" that is to say it is cruel and ruthless. "Bova Beltro said.
Earl and the cavalry looked at each other.
"Mr. Boova Beltro, you are right. It’s cold and ruthless, yes, that’s exactly what we need. This is a life-and-death war, and it has reached the juncture of bloody battles. The regicide killed Louis XVI and we will dismember the five horses of the regicide. Yes, the general we need should be merciless people. In Anru and Shangpoutu, the leaders were magnanimous and generous, so everything was not going well. In Marey and Rez, the leaders were cruel and violent, so everything went smoothly, because Charlett was never ruthless to Palan and reported it to him. "
Bova Beltropo had no time to answer, Ravierville's words were suddenly interrupted by a desperate scream, and at the same time an unheard noise came from the inside of the ship.
Captain and the Big The Ultimate rushed over in the middle cabin, but couldn't get in. The gunners ran to the deck in panic.
Something scary had just happened.
Four TORMENTUMBELLI①
In the gun group, a 24-pound cannon was in the gun group. Get out of it -
① Latin, meaning war machine - original editor's note
This is probably the most terrible accident on the sea. This is the most feared thing about warships sailing on the sea.
A cannon broke the cable Then, it suddenly turned into a strange, supernatural beast. The machine turned into a demon. The behemoth ran on the wheel, rushing around like a billiard ball, swaying as the ship bumped, and swaying, coming and going , running and stopping, as if in contemplation, then running, rushing from one end of the ship to the other end like a sharp sword, quickly spinning, avoiding, running, standing upright, colliding, punching holes, strangling, and eliminating. It is like It is the hammer that hits the wall, and this hammer is iron, and the wall is wood. The matter is completely free, and this eternal slave seems to be revenge. What we call angerless object seems to suddenly vent all the evil inside. It lost patience and secretly carried out strange revenge.The anger of no creature is the most merciless. This violent behemoth jumped like a leopard, as heavy as an elephant, as agile as a mouse, as determined as an axe, as unexpected as a swell, as sudden as lightning, as deaf as a grave. It was heavy, but it bounced around like a toy ball. It suddenly whirled ninety degrees. what to do? How to control it? The storm will stop, the hurricane will pass, the sea breeze will stop, the broken mast can be replaced, the inlet hole can be blocked, and the fire can be extinguished, but how to deal with this huge and fierce copper guy? What to do with it? You can call the dog obedient, the cow is shocked, the python is confused, the tiger is scared, and the lion is soft-hearted, but you have no way to deal with this demon, the cannon that breaks away from the chain. You can't kill it because it is dead, but it is alive again, and its sinister life is infinite. There is a bottom plate under it, and the boat makes the bottom plate bump up and down, the sea makes the boat bump up and down, and the wind makes the sea bump up and down. This extinct is also a toy, controlled by ships, waves and winds, so its life is extremely terrifying. What should you do with this machine? How can it prevent it from coming and going, circling, pauses and impacts? Each impact on the hull plate can break it. How can we judge its terrible roundabout running? It looks like a shell that is very independent but changes its mind and changes its direction from time to time. How can we avoid things that must be avoided? The terrifying cannon was running, forward, backward, right, left, and quickly escaped, caught off guard; it crushed obstacles and crushed people like flies. The swaying of the base plate makes the situation very critical. How to uniform the willful and tilted base plate? It seemed like there was a thunder in the belly of the boat. It wanted to escape from time to time, as if it was rolling thunder above the earthquake.
In an instant, all the crew stood up. The responsibility for the accident lies with the gun captain of the cannon. He did not tighten the nuts that fixed the chain, nor did he tie the four wheels of the cannon. Therefore, there was a gap between the bottom pad and the cigarette rack, and the two bottom tables were inconsistent. Finally, The gun rope was disengaged, the steel rope broke, and the cannon lost balance on the gun stand. There was no fixed gun rope to prevent the gun body from retreating at that time. A wave hit the side door, and the cannon without a tie was retreated, smashed the chains, and began to wander terrifyingly in the middle cabin.
To know what this strange sliding looks like, you might as well imagine a drop of water rolling on the glass.
When the chain breaks, the gunners are all in his team, some gather together, and some are busy preparing for the construction of fortifications. The earth slid back and forth, made a hole in the group, crushing four people to death, and then slid left and right again, splitting the fifth poor man in half, and hitting the left-string boat board, and then slid the other A cannon broke. The call for help I just heard was released at this time. People rushed to the stairs, and in an instant, there was no one in the smoke room.
Cannon is now alone, without any scruples. It is its own master and the owner of this ship, and can do whatever it wants. The crew members who were chatting and laughing even during the battle were trembling. The horrifying atmosphere is indescribable.
Minister Bouvabeltro and First Deputy Ravierville were two brave and fearless people, but they also stood at the stairs, looking at the middle cabin with pale faces, silent and hesitant. At this time, a man pushed them away with his elbow and walked down the stairs.
This person is their passenger, the farmer, the person they just talked about.
He walked down the stairs and stopped.
5VISETVIR①
cannons wandering back and forth in the middle cabin, as if they were chariots of life in the end of the world. The wind lights swayed under the bow of the cannon chamber, making the scene even more bizarre and dizzy. In the violent running, the shape of the cannon fades, sometimes it looks dark in the light, and sometimes it reflects hazy white in the dark -
① Latin, which can be translated as: Violence and People - Original Editor's Note
It Continue to execute the ship. It had broken the other four doors of earth and knocked out two large slits in the hull board. Fortunately they were above the waterline, but if there was a strong wind, the sea water would pour in.The cannon rammed the ship's ribs frantically, and the ribs were very strong and could withstand it because the curved wood had special sturdiness. However, under the thump of this big stick, it made a tearing sound. The big stick seems to have an amazing clone technique, and it also hits all directions. Put a lead bullet in a bottle and shake it, and its impact will not be so crazy or so quickly. Four wheels rolled around the man who was crushed to death, crushing the body into pieces, crushing it to pieces, and five bodies turned into twenty amputations and rolling in the artillery room. The head of the deceased seemed to be shouting, and blood flowed on the ground as the ship swung left and right. The protection is damaged in many places and cracks begin to occur. The entire boat was filled with this terrible noise.
Captain quickly calmed down and ordered everyone to throw everything from the square hatch into the middle cabin that could mitigate and prevent violent impacts: mattresses, hammocks, spare sails, rolled cables, seamen's duffel bags, and Wrapped with fake finger coupons ①. There are many such foreskin wrapped on the ship, because the British regarded this shameless behavior as an open and upright thing -
①1789-1797 securities, which were popular in France, and later used as currency.
However, what role can these broken things play? No one dares to go down and put them where they should be. After a few minutes, they were crushed to pieces.
The waves are not big or small, which just caused the biggest consequences of this accident. It would be great if there was a storm, it might turn the cannon overturn, and when it was four wheels facing the sky, people could subdue it. However, the destruction is getting worse at this moment. Embedded on the keel frame, the mast on the deck can be seen from the bottom to the size of a thick round pillar, but it is scratched and even cracked. Under the twitching impact of the smoke, cracks appeared on the foremast and the main mast was also damaged. The cannon group fell apart, and out of the thirty cannons, ten cannons were no longer used. There were more and more cracks in the hull board, and the boat began to enter the water.
After going down to the middle cabin, the old man stood under the stairs like a stone man, looking at the ruins with serious eyes. He didn't move, as if he couldn't take a step in the gun room.
The cannon breaks free from the bond every move of the cannon destroys the ship. Shipwreck is imminent.
must immediately stop this disaster, otherwise it will perish. It is necessary to make a quick decision, but how easy it is?
This earth is a veritable warrior!
must stop this terrible madman.
must seize this lightning.
must knock down this thunderbolt.
Bouva Beltro said to Ravierville:
"Do you believe in God, the Knight?"
Ravierville replied:
"Believe. Don't believe. Sometimes you believe."
"When a storm occurs?"
0 "Yes, there is still the moment like this."
"Indeed, only God can save us."
People were silent, letting their hugs rush around.
The surging waves hitting the hull and the impact of the cannon should be combined inside and outside, like two sledgehammers are taking turns to hit.
Suddenly, a man holding an iron rod appeared on this inaccessible field that was hit by the cannon. He was the perpetrator of this disaster, the cannon leader and owner of this cannon. His negligence caused the accident. Since he had caused trouble, he wanted to make up for it, so he held the pry stick in one hand and the steer rope with a sliver knot in the other, and jumped down from the square hatch.
So something cruel happened, an unusual scene. The cannon attacks its gunners and fights against their intelligence, and objects and people duels.
The man stood in the corner with an iron rod and rope, leaning against the boat's ribs, and his legs were firmly like two steel pillars. He looked pale, calm and tragic, standing motionless, waiting for the opportunity.
He waited for the cannon to roll past him.
The gunner was familiar with his cannon, and it seemed that it should be familiar with him, too. They have lived together for a long time. He had reached his hand into its mouth countless times. This is the monster he is familiar with. He talks to it like his own dog.
"Come on." He said, maybe he really loves it.
He seems to want it to roll over.
However, when you go over, you just rush over. Then he will be finished. How to avoid being crushed to death is the problem.Everyone looked at it in panic.
People held their breath, except for the old man. He stood in the middle cabin with the two fighters, and was a witness to the fight.
He himself may also be crushed by cannons. He didn't move at all.
Below them, the blind waves are commanding the battle.
The gunner accepted this terrible hand-to-hand combat and challenged the cannon. However, the impermanent fluctuations of the sea water made the cannon stand still at this moment, as if it was frightened. "Come on!" said the gunner. The cannon seemed to hear it.
It rushed towards him. He dodged away.
The battle has begun. Strange battles. The vulnerable man competes with the invincible cannon. Flesh and blood duel with the iron beast. On one side is strength, on the other side is the soul.
All this is going on in the dark, as if it was a vague miracle.
mind. Strangely, the cannon also seems to have a heart full of hatred and anger. This eye monster also has eyes, it is peeping at people, it is scheming, at least it looks like this. It is glimpsing the opportunity. This is a giant iron, but it has ulterior motives or seems to have ulterior motives. Sometimes this huge locust hit the low ceiling of the cannon chamber, then fell down again, landing on the ground with four wheels, just like a tiger hitting the ground with four claws, and then continued chasing. And he is as flexible and agile as a snake, twisting cleverly under this thunderous attack to avoid blows. He avoided the blow, but the hull was constantly damaged under the impact.
There is still a small cut-off iron chain on the cannon. Somehow it was wrapped around the screws of the bulttle. One end of the chain is fixed on the cannon stand and the other end is suspended in the air. It rotates wildly around the cannon, causing the cannon to jump even harder. The screws are like a hand, close to the iron chain, so they hit and beat, and iron fist and iron whip. A terrifying whirlwind was surrounding the cannon. This chain makes the battle even more complicated.
However, that person is still fighting. Sometimes he even attacks. He crawled along the hull board with a pry stick and a rope. The cannon seemed to understand, saw through the trick, so he ran away. The man bravely chased after him.
can no longer continue. The cannon seemed to be thinking, "Okay! It's time to end!" So he stopped. The ending is approaching. The cannon was in a state of pause, and seemed to be brewing - because it had life in the eyes of everyone - a cruel thought. Suddenly, it rushed towards his hand, the gunner flashed to the side, letting it go, and laughed and shouted, "Do it again!" The cannon was angry and smashed a cannon on the port side, and then it seemed like it was invisible. The stone bullet shot from the stone caster rushed towards his right, and his hand dodged, but three cannons collapsed. At this moment, the cannon seemed to be blind. He didn't know what he was doing. He rushed forward from behind and broke the boat's post and broke a crack in the bow wall. The gunner hid under the stairs, only a few steps away from the old man who witnessed it. He held the sled stick. The cannon seemed to see him, and if he didn't turn around, he retreated quickly and rushed towards him, as fast as an axe. The gunner is forced to the board and will surely die. Everyone on the boat exclaimed.
The old man who had been standing still rushed over at this time, faster than the brutal impact. He grabbed a fake finger voucher and risked being crushed to death, throwing the paper foreskin into the middle of the cannon's wheel. This is a critical dangerous move, but he did it neatly and accurately, which is difficult for anyone who is familiar with the entire content of Rosel's "Sea Cannon Operation Regulations".
The small foreskin acts as a buffer. A small stone can stop a big thing, and a branch can stop an avalanche. The cannon staggered. The gunner grabbed the terrible thing and reached the iron law between the spokes of the rear wheel. The cannon stopped.
cannon tilted. He pried it with an iron rod and turned it over. The heavy cannon was facing the sky, and it sounded like a big bell collapsed. The sweaty gunner rushed over without hesitation, putting the rudder cable's slipknot on the copper neck of the knocked monster.
ends. People won. Ants defeated the behemoth. Baoru captured Thunder.
Soldiers and sailors applauded.
All crew members rushed up with cables and iron chains. After a while, the cannon was tied firmly.
The gunner thanked the passenger.
"Sir, you saved my life." He said.
The old man returned to his indifferent expression and had no answer.
Both ends of the six-size
people won, but it can also be said that the cannon won. Although the danger of the entire ship being wiped out was eliminated, the ship could not be resurrected. The serious damage is difficult to make up. There are five cracks in the hull plate, one of which is large at the bow. Twenty of the thirty cannons lay down there. The cannon that was caught and tied was no longer usable, and the screws of the blasting button were damaged and could not be aimed. The artillery team has only nine cannons left. Water in the bottom cabin. The damaged area must be repaired immediately and drained immediately.
Now people are going to see the middle cabin, it is shocking. The cage of the elephant who was furious and thunder would not be so broken.
must not let the enemy discover this cruise ship, however, another task is urgent, namely, to save the ship. So people had to put a few wind lights to light up the deck.
The crew devoted themselves to the tragic work, thinking about life and death issues, and were unwilling to take care of other things, so they did not pay attention to the situation outside the ship during this period. The fog is getting thicker and the weather is changing. The ship was blown arbitrarily by the wind and had deviated from the flat waterway from Jersey to Gaelnexi, too south. The sea is surging. The huge waves kissed the ship's open wound, which was a terrible kiss. The shaking of the sea was full of threats. The breeze has turned into a north wind. The strong wind, perhaps the storm, is brewing. There is a confusion beyond the four waves.
The crew hurriedly repaired the middle cabin, blocked the water hole, and straightened the cannon that survived the disaster. At this moment, the old man walked onto the deck again.
He leaned against the mainmast.
He didn't pay attention to the movement on the ship. The Knights of Ravierville have ordered the naval infantry to line up straggling lines on both sides of the mainmast. The sailors whistled, and the sailors who were busy with operations were arranged in the Mast Street. ”
