"Which of them has the sharpest eyes?" Lu Yuan drove the boat in the direction of Trinidad.

Auguste stood behind him. He had just moved out of the captain's room, and now he had to live in an officer's dormitory. However, no matter now, or in the future for a long time, he is the only one in the officer's dormitory.

Even if Misha got on the boat, she would obviously not live where he was.

Lu Yuan swears that even if he bears the reputation of a "geek", he will also pull "Misha" into the captain's room to engage in "ship shock".

With the exception of a small number of sailors still sorting cargo in the bilge, most of the sailors gathered on the deck, waiting for the new boss's arrangement. However, Lu Yuan did not directly assign it, except for certain positions, he basically listened to Auguste's opinion.

"Jacques, he has the best look among us!" August said, pointing at a young pirate, and Lu Yuan smiled at first glance. It was precisely when the drama was performed today that the kid who applauded first was also one of the only remaining two bronze-level lv9 masters!

"Hey, Jacques! Do you want to be a watchman?" Lu Yuan saw the appraisal technique, and it really showed that he had the same ship skill "Eagle Eye" as Jiang Guan. He knew that his eyes were very good, and it was very suitable. As a watchman.

Jacques stood up, showing an embarrassed expression. He hesitated for a moment before refusing loudly, "Captain. I don't want to be a watchman! I want to stay with the Stormtroopers. This is more suitable for me. Of course, it would be better if you could give me a musket."

"Okay, Jacques, I think you are more suitable to use a musket rather than a scimitar. Go up. Wait for me to find a good musket for you. I will allow you to shoot on it! Aiming on it is easier , You will become the most killing enemy among us! "Lu Yuan has seen that most of his skills are musket skills. Most of his lv9's strength is reflected in the use of muskets. Obviously, this guy doesn't know which elite shooter he came from.

Because there was no Musketeers on this boat, he was sent to the Stormtroopers to slash the machete.

"Ah, is this true ?! Thank you so much, Captain!" Jacques bowed happily, ready to climb the mast. "'Things that were originally hopeless, try boldly and often succeed'! You're right! You're right, Captain, will you still perform dramas in the future?"

Looking at many hot-eyed pirates, Lu Yuan shook his head, "Do n’t be ridiculous, my level is as far away from the sky and the earth as the stars of the Havana Theater! I promise to find you a professional one in the future Come on! Now, let me do the right thing! "

Jacques scratched his head, ready to slip away before the new captain got angry. The new captain looked weird and ruthless, and he didn't know how he had just said that.

"Wait, this thing is for you!" Lu Yuan took out the "delicate telescope" and handed it to him. "Very expensive things, use it with care ... Help me look at the front at all times, I will find those in advance Pirate Ship."

"I swear to you, I promise!" Jacques excitedly took the telescope that looked like an exquisite work of art. He quickly climbed the observation platform along the rope ladder with his hands and feet, and could not wait to use the telescope. His excited groan.

Leaving the sailors apart from the stormtroopers and gunners, even if the mission is basically completed.

As I said before, being a sailor on a ship is actually a very professional job, but many places are not taken seriously. For example, chefs, they let people who ca n’t fight directly take over. In fact, this job is very crucial. Lu Yuan has made up his mind to find a better person.

Before that, he planned to eat the food in the space box. He was really not used to eating the food on the boat. God knows what the sticky stuff is from the chef!

There are also people who work in gunpowder rooms, keep gunpowder dry, and divide gunpowder. This person needs to know how to use balance and arithmetic! In this era, they are also high-tech talents, but they are still not valued on pirate ships. Let the three thin young sailors be ...

Lu Yuan shook his head. What dissatisfied him on this boat? !

Looking at the layout of the ten 16-pound guns on the ship, two on the front and two on the left, and three on the left, Lu Yuan felt headache again. Only two or three guns are fired at a time, so there is no intensive firepower at all! Fortunately, the ship was originally designed with 20 gun positions. The layout is two in front and one in front, eight in left and right, and room for adjustment.

Of course, although this ship can be equipped with a maximum of 24 pounds of guns, that is basically impossible. If it is equipped with twenty 24-pound artillery pieces, then the weight of the light artillery, the turret and the shells can reach about 30 tons, and no more cargo can be loaded. Only in the case of simply needing to go to sea to fight, such an extreme configuration will be carried out before leaving the port.

"August, I need to concentrate the artillery on one side to form an advantage to cover the firepower. This is your arrangement, I know this will cause the center of gravity of the ship to shift. So you can move the cargo, no matter how good, I Hope to fill up the eight gun positions on one side! That's it! "

"Follow the order, sir." After August agreed, Lu Yuan walked away sadly, which finally made Lu Yuan feel better.

You know, from taking the boat to now, he has n’t been busy with visiting his captain ’s room! How can you not be depressed together?

It's just the weather ... he looked up depressively at the sky, and the sea was clear in the morning. Now the flakes of stratus are raised, and the wind is gradually rising, it seems that he started from the moment he became the captain ...

If this continues, it will encounter a storm when it reaches Trinidad tonight.

(Your relationship with Poseidon Collebso has dropped to "hate", and the likelihood of encountering a storm at sea is greatly increased!)

Did you find the reason here? Rumei's!

Lu Yuan took a sip and gently swung the wheel rudder to make the boat draw a beautiful arc. Riding on the gradually increasing wind, the flying fish flew across the water!

"Rice! This will upset the boat! Drag back! Drag back!"

"That's enough!" Lu Yuan yelled with fullness! One side quickly hit the rudder, allowing the sail to withstand greater crosswinds. With the help of the sea breeze, "said" the sailboat with a large incline. So that the boat will not capsize immediately! On the other hand, it is necessary to control a cable, wrapped around the main mast, and hang a 16-pound cannon that weighs 700 kg and hangs outside the ship's side!

"Damn it! Osust! Pull it up quickly!" Lu Yuan rushed to the side and hugged the mast. Auguste stunned completely! Lu Yuan shouted this time. It is a complete wake-up call to those sailors who are sloppy! They hurriedly joined the gunners. Drag the cannon that was about to fall back to the deck!

When the eighth artillery was placed on the starboard side just now, the ship was finally unable to stabilize the center of gravity and tilted sharply! The artillery that could be fixed in the future also rolled out of the ship's side. Fall towards the sea. If it were n’t for Lu Yuan ’s superb driving skills and magic, they would surely overturn the ship!

Of course, it costs 2,000 pesos to lose a cannon!

This time, all the sailors on the deck were terrified!

"I'm so fed up!" Lu Yuan grabbed his hair in pain, he only knew he had robbed a new ship, but how could he think that he also robbed a group of novices at the same time! Jerk!

Although he just had a "breeze to save the ship" like a magical pen just now, the value of driving him jumped a few steps up to the value of 50! But there is no help for the current situation.

No way, he still has to fight in person in the end!

Lu Yuanfei quickly calculated the weight of the hull, and finally adopted the "three left and right seven" layout of the ten cannons, and then fixed the seawater of the ten wooden barrels on the outboard of the left ship. This is to adjust the center of gravity back to the ship 'S midline!

But he doesn't believe anything now-especially the qualities of these guys! You have to know that Auguste's "fuck gun" of up to 17 is actually the best one among all gunners! It took him three minutes to load a 16-pound small artillery, but he was proud of accepting everyone's praise ... it was enough! enough! Lu Yuan lifted the table in his heart!

Let him take the gang directly to fight now? Is this the rhythm of wanting to die? ! How optimistic I was before!

Lu Yuan was driving a sailing boat, looking for a lonely reef and let the boat hover about 100 meters away from the reef.

Near the port of Trinidad is the Cayman Islands and the large coral reefs. The sea conditions here are complex, the routes are narrow, and there are reefs everywhere. Therefore, such a reef is not difficult to find, as long as it is off the route, it can be encountered at any time.

Lu Yuan did not stop the boat, he just tried to stabilize the hull as much as possible and let the boat circle around the reef in a shape that was not too large. In the era of sails as the power, wind is the decisive factor for the attitude of the ship. If you can be a helmsman like Lu Yuan, you can't find one out of 100!

Lu Yuan's "nautical" value is skyrocketing, but now he is not concerned about this at all! He also had unrealistic fantasies about these crew members-he always felt that one aspect of them would not work, maybe another aspect would be fine ... totally unwilling to believe the results of his identification!

"All gunners, fill me with starboard artillery! Aim at that reef!" Lu Yuan ordered loudly, and the gunners looked at each other ... "Damn! You won't be the one who hasn't fired the gun once!" Roar! He quickly turned into a roaring emperor this afternoon, countless times he wanted to hang these people, and then jumped into the sea to drown himself.

"I've fired it once ..." Auguste scratched his head embarrassedly and replied with a smile, "It takes more than one hundred pesos to fire a cannon! Cannonballs and gunpowder are quite expensive, and the cannon is also easy to damage, so you can save Just save a little ... hehe. "

"Hey your sister!" Lu Yuanren kicked over with an unbearable kick. "Fill me all right away! Lao Tzu to see how bad you can be!" He took out his pocket watch and lighted it up, "I started timing, Guns with a loading time of more than four minutes are executed! "

August immediately squirmed and took the gunners to load up ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Everyone was sweating and busy, even the stormtroopers who had nothing to do, came to watch this time. They have nothing to do with themselves, and they look happily.

Although the gunners were very desperate, they did not have much training and practice. They still spent almost six minutes before and after the seven guns on the port side were fully loaded!

All the gunners were pitiful, watching the horror captain at the helm, waiting for the trial! Especially the group of gunners who fell in the last group almost knelt down and begged God!

Lu Yuan closed the cover of his pocket watch blankly, "Time is just right, let's take the next step. Now, let's take aim ..."

The picture of aiming could not bear to look straight. Auguste took the lead behind the artillery, aimed at the reef with his eyes, and calculated with the length of his fingers. Then move here, kick and adjust the artillery there. This process took almost the same time as loading, which made Lu Yuan disappointed with the fighting rhythm of this era to the extreme!

Seeing that they were all ready, Lu Yuan simply waved his hand, "Salvo!" (To be continued ...) ()
