He turned around suddenly, his voice with unprecedented urgency, "They are hanging us here, the main force of Kago, I'm afraid they have already gone to raid our nest." "
Jora's face turned pale in an instant, and his Linis was still tortured.
"Torture Abyss is easy to defend and difficult to attack, can they defeat it?"
Jorah gradually calmed down and analyzed.
"Now there are only a thousand defenders in Torture Abyss! Kagod must have thought that we were pouring out of the nest, and the inside was empty. "
Liu Qian spoke quickly, "Return immediately, return at full speed." "
He gave a sharp order in the direction of the Rollo fleet ahead, and the signal flag bearer immediately waved the flag of emergency retreat.
The fleet turned urgently in the night, and the heavy paddles slapped the sea frantically, cutting through the rapid white trails and desperately sailing in the direction of the Torture Abyss.
The heavy ink enveloped the sea, the starlight was sparse, and the moonlight was obscured by thick clouds, and only the lights on the bow of the ship swayed in the boundless darkness, like faint fireflies.
The islands and reefs in the distance cast ghosts in the darkness, undulating with the waves.
Liu Qian stood on the stern, forcing himself to calm down, his fast-paced brain analyzing every possible step of Kago.
The defense of the torture abyss... Jelena's seat... Kago's cunning... An even more terrible thought surfaced.
"No!" Liu Qian's voice cut off the tense atmosphere, "Kago may not really fight the Torture Abyss, even if there are only a thousand people, relying on our fortifications, Jelena can hold on for a while." If they attack the Torture Abyss, once we return to help, they will be blocked in the cracked waterway, flanked from front and back, and there is only one way out. "
A hint of understanding flashed in Jorah's cloudy eyes, and she blurted out: "You mean... Is their real target us? Ambush on the way back? "
"That's right," Liu Qian's eyes were as sharp as a knife, sweeping across the dark sea, "Luo Luo, the fastest route back to Torture Abyss, where is the most suitable for setting up an ambush?" "
Rollo had already approached the chart, and by the faint light, his finger quickly pointed to a mark: "'Tidal Reef Plate', my lord, we just passed there when we came during the day... The tide in that sea area is high and deep during the day, and the boat can pass through, but the tide is low at night..."
Luo Luo's voice stopped abruptly, his cloudy old eyes widened suddenly, and he gasped, "At low tide at night, a large reef will be exposed there, which will become a natural hidden soldier cave." "
"Exactly."
The corners of Liu Qian's mouth curled up with a cold arc, "What a 'shipbreaker', really not stupid to come home, want to wait here for us to throw ourselves into the net?" Herald, right full rudder, bypass the main channel, pass me from the outside, I want to copy his ass. "
Under Rollo's precise guidance, the fleet quietly turned in the darkness like a ghost, made a large circle, and quietly approached from the side rear of the "tidal reef disk".
"Tidal reef plate".
The night was inky, and the huge reef revealed its hideous face after low tide.
The black reef with interlaced teeth resembled the fangs of an ancient behemoth, piercing the sea and glowing with a cold glow under the faint moonlight.
Dozens of paddle boats of different sizes lurked quietly like poisonous snakes lurking in the shadow of the reef.
The five largest double-layered oars are like five silent sea beasts, and on one of the particularly tall stern, the burly figure of the "shipbreaker" Kago almost merges with the darkness.
He was shirtless, holding a heavy double-edged battle axe in his hand, the blade occasionally flashing cold in the shadows.
"Kago, should they arrive?" A thin leader wrapped in leather armor came over and complained impatiently.
Kago's only remaining right eye glared at him viciously, but a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, revealing his burnt teeth: "What are you in a hurry for? Those hairy boys were hung by our boat on the side of 'Razor Reef', wandering around like headless flies. Be patient, when they rush home in a hurry and crash into our arms... Hey..."
He picked up the tomahawk in his hand, "I'm going to use their board to add a few new oars to our fleet." "
The thin man also laughed: "It's still you smart, they must have thought that we went to dig out the old nest, and rushed back in a panic, and never dreamed that we would block the only way for them to go home, waiting to sink a few of their boats, and the rest of the people... Aren't we allowed to slaughter? "
Just as the two were talking in a low voice, fantasizing about the impending massacre, a huge shadow, like a silent ghost, quietly emerged from the deep water behind the side of the reef.
That was Liu Qian's main fleet.
With the cover of the reef and the cover of the night, they have completed the outflank.
"Let go!"
Liu Qian's cold voice sounded in the stern of the "Crab Nest". The flag bearer suddenly waved the command flag in his hand.
"Ugh-buzz——!"
The piercing sound of breaking the air tore through the silence of the night.
The trebuchet, which was already ready to go, let out a dull roar, and the heavy stone projectiles roared through the darkness and smashed into the dense enemy ships deep in the reef.
At the same time, the crossbow arrows as thick as arms of the heavy crossbow machine, with terrifying kinetic energy, let out a sharp roar and shot accurately at the masts and waterlines of the enemy ships.
"Boom! Click! Pfft! "
Disaster struck in an instant.
The mast of a ship on the Split Palate Island was smashed by a huge stone projectile, and the heavy sails and rigging collapsed, smashing the people below into meat paste.
A heavy crossbow arrow pierced the side waterline of a double-decker warship, and seawater poured in wildly.
The reef plate was suddenly in chaos, and the sound of the hull crackling, the crackling of wood, and the wailing of dying were intertwined into a hell movement.
Kago was stunned by this sudden blow, and then he was furious to the sky.
"Enemy attack, it's the guy from Torture Yuan! They went around! Warriors, don't panic, crash into me! Sink them!! "
His eyes were about to burst, his one-eyed eyes were instantly bloodshot, and he let out a beastly roar, and the ferocity in the bones of the pirates on the split palate island was completely stimulated.
The tactic that "Ship Crusher" Kago is famous for is ramming.
The warships under his command were equipped with sharp angles elongated, reinforced, and covered in bronze, and the hull structure was specially strengthened.
In his roar, the ships of the undestroyed Split Palate Island were like wounded sharks, and the oarsmen erupted with a desperate roar, the oars flew like wheels, the ships adjusted their direction, ignoring the threat of the reef, rushed out of the chaotic reef at an astonishing speed, and pounced on Liu Qian's fleet with a fierce momentum.
The target was aimed at the relatively fragile paddle boats, intending to tear apart the opposing line in the most barbaric way.
Liu Qian stood on the stern tower, his sharp eyes scanning rapidly in the charging enemy fleet like an eagle, looking for Kago's flagship.
The keel bow was already held in his hand, and the throbbing of the cold bow body was eager to fight.
As long as you can lock on that burly figure, you can end the battle with one arrow.
However, a thick dark cloud completely obscured the already faint moonlight at this time, and the sea plunged into deeper darkness, and the figure of the enemy ship became blurred and illegible.
"Damn!" Liu Qian cursed secretly.
The black arrows of the keel bow were extremely precious, and he could not waste them on uncertain blind shots.
Seeing that Kago's fleet was approaching like a frenzy, and the sharp angle of collision flashed with a deadly cold light in the darkness, Liu Qian knew that a head-to-head battle was inevitable.
"Jorah, Rollo, get ready to pick up! Fight to the death! "
His roar overwhelmed the roar of the sea breeze.
