Survival for all: I built a villa on a deserted island

"Don't relax your vigilance just because the opponent is weak. You know, a lion fights a rabbit with all its strength!" Zhang Zhi's last few words were not just addressed to Maca, but to everyone present.

And those islanders who acted as gunners expressed their willingness to obey Zhang Zhi's arrangement when they heard Zhang Zhi's words.

Afterwards, these islanders began to put the gunpowder that had been stacked back into the compartment.

Then only a shot of gunpowder from the cannon was left next to the cannon.

After doing all this, Zhang Zhicai gave the order to let the Aviator continue to approach the island full of yellow sand.

When the warship was only a few hundred meters away from the island, Zhang Zhi ordered Maca and the others to start loading the artillery, preparing for a round of attack on the island.

Since Maca and the others were loading for the first time, their actions were not fast, but Zhang Zhi was not in a hurry. He knew that his urging now would make Maca and the others even more flustered.

At this time, Zhang Zhi didn't want to pursue the loading speed of Maca and the others, because they were not familiar with it, and it was simply unrealistic to pursue speed at this time.

And this Crescent Tribe is obviously a soft persimmon. Zhang Zhi feels that this time, it is one aspect to subdue the Crescent Tribe. The more important aspect is that Maca and the others need to learn how to load the cannon so that the cannon can go smoothly. Just launch.

Zhang Zhi still knows the truth that food should be eaten bite by bite, and roads should be walked step by step.

Chapter 269 The Rookie Gunner

"Bang bang bang!" A series of loud noises caused the entire Flyer to shake violently.

A large cloud of white smoke burst out instantly from the hull of the ship facing the island.After a while, a cloud of sand and water rose up near the island.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Zhang Zhi coughed after being choked by the white smoke from the artillery fire.

"The smell of gunpowder is really good." Zhang Zhi slapped himself vigorously with his hand.After the gunpowder smoke cleared a bit, he spoke slowly.

"By the way! Didn't I just say that! From left to right, the person on the right saw the previous person igniting the fuse! Why are you all igniting the fire together! You want to shatter the boat and go into the sea. Fish?" Zhang Zhi yelled at the crowd present with a dissatisfied face.

"Okay! Replace the next wave of people!" Zhang Zhi waved his hand and asked the second batch of gunners to come up and reload the artillery.

There is no way around this, after all, only one side of the warship can face the island.Instead of turning the ships around, let the gunners take turns reloading.

"Remember, first use a cotton swab to remove the residue from the barrel! Then reload the gunpowder!"

"Don't feel troublesome! This is all for the sake of your own life! Those residues are very likely to have residual sparks."

"If you don't clean up the residue first, you will have to blow up the new gunpowder! You will be the first to die then!" Zhang Zhi patrolled behind the cannon with his hands behind his back.

Although Zhang Zhi didn't understand these things, he still said that he had never eaten pork, and he had seen pigs running.

No matter what, Zhang Zhi had more common sense than these rookie gunners. He knew very well that after the gunpowder fired projectiles, the barrel of the gun would be very hot.

Moreover, these guns use black powder, which has a lot of residue after burning.If these residues are not cleaned up, on the one hand, it will affect the second launch.

More, it will still ignite the newly injected gunpowder, so that the gunpowder explodes into spontaneous combustion.

Looking at these rookie gunners, holding a large cotton swab about 1.2 meters in length, and sloppyly stuffing the cotton swab into the barrel of the gun and starting to clean it, Zhang Zhi nodded in satisfaction.

He now has very low requirements for these rookie gunners. He doesn't ask them to be able to shoot accurately, but only asks them to be able to fire the shells safely.

As for the accuracy and speed, Zhang Zhi really didn't insist on anything.

It was not until 3. or 4 minutes later that the gunners of the second wave reloaded the artillery.

"My lord! The cannon is loaded!" Maca watched his tribe push the loaded cannon back to the gun position, and he immediately reported to Zhang Zhi.

"Fit the fuse! Remember! This time the person on the right sees the person on his left lighting the fuse, and then light me again!"

"If anyone dares to light the fire first, I don't mind letting him swim in the sea first!" Zhang Zhi reminded everyone again.

Everyone present couldn't help but shudder when they heard Zhang Zhi's words.

"Fire!" Zhang Zhi saw that everyone listened to his words, and then ordered the gunners to light the fire.

Hearing Zhang Zhi's words, the gunner at the stern of the ship took the lead in lighting the fuse with the torch in his hand.

Hearing the sound of "呵呵" from the lead wire, and a puff of white smoke coming out suddenly, the gunner was so scared that he took a step back involuntarily.

"Asshole! Just a puff of gunpowder scares you away? Get back to my post!" Zhang Zhi immediately scolded when he saw the gunner.

Hearing Zhang Zhi's words, the gunner stood back in a panic.

"You fucking meow, you don't want your legs anymore? Stand by!" Seeing the gunner hearing his words, Zhang Zhi took a step forward.But with this step, he stood directly at the tail of the artillery.

If the shell was fired, the huge recoil could directly smash his legs into pieces.

Gu So, Zhang Zhi yelled directly, and then went up and kicked his ass.

With one kick, the rookie gunner was kicked aside.

"Bang!" The huge recoil directly caused the artillery to retreat more than one meter!If it weren't for the fact that there was an iron chain as thick as a baby's arm on the gun mount, it is estimated that this small artillery could run to the other side of the hull.

Then, after the rookie gunner was kicked by Zhang Zhi, he looked at Zhang Zhi with some resentment, but as soon as he looked up, he saw the artillery retreating at an extremely fast speed.

The huge pulling force stretched the iron chain straight.

When the gunner saw this scene, he knew that if it wasn't for Zhang Zhi's kick, then at this moment, his leg would leave him forever.

"Thank you, thank you." The gunner murmured.

But before he could say that, the cannon next to him made a loud "bang".

Then, there was a series of "bang bang" sounds, which lasted for more than 20 times.

Seeing that all the cannons had been fired, Zhang Zhi nodded in satisfaction.

I have to say that this round of shelling was much better than the first round.At least these gunners already know that there needs to be a little interval between firing.

Although Zhang Zhi didn't expect the twenty or so shells to land on the target point accurately, he couldn't help picking up the binoculars on his chest and looking in the direction of the island.

About a second or two after logging in, Zhang Zhi saw dust and water jets rising near the shore of the island.

Zhang Zhi roughly counted and found that most of the shells in this round still landed on the island.

Such a hit rate is enough for Zhang Zhi.You can't force those rookies who have just touched artillery to be more accurate.

"Maka, let the brothers continue! Change to the first group." Zhang Zhi held up the binoculars, looked at the situation on the island, and said to Maca without looking at him.

"Yes! Your Excellency." Maka nodded immediately when she heard Zhang Zhi's words, and then waved to the people in the first group.

After the first group of gunners who had already had an experience exchanged positions with the second group, they began to clean the gun bores.

Then, new gunpowder was filled in, and then another solid shell was stuffed into the barrel, and the shell was tamped with cotton swabs.

Finally, the gunner who ignited inserted a lead wire into the lead wire port. After all this was done, the gunner who ignited raised his head and looked at the clansmen in front of the artillery. Gun position, after confirming that they were all ready, he extended the torch in his hand to the fuse.

The familiar barking sound and the familiar smell of gunpowder came out again.

However, this time, the gunner was not as nervous as before.

"boom!"

"Bang! Bang!"

There was another series of artillery sounds, and another round of yellow sand rose up.

But this time, there was a smile on Zhang Zhi's face. This round of shelling had basically landed on the island, with only a few shells falling into the sea.

"Very good! Next round!" Zhang Zhi continued to shout.

Chapter 2 Seventy Strange Island

An hour later, half of the gunpowder on the ship had been used up, and the cannons facing the island were also fired continuously, causing the barrels to turn slightly red.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhi immediately asked the rookie gunners to stop firing.

"My lord, why did you stop?" Maca felt a little strange when he saw Zhang Zhi shouting to stop the firing of the artillery. He felt that he still had gunpowder and ammunition on his side, so why did he stop.

"Stupid! Didn't you notice that the barrel of this cannon is all red? A cannon like this will ignite spontaneously as soon as you put the gunpowder in it."

"Besides, don't you think it's strange? We've been firing guns here for so long, but there's no response from the island at all." Zhang Zhi heard Maca's words, put down his binoculars, and rolled his eyes at him.

"Then, my lord, what should we do?" Maca asked immediately after hearing Zhang Zhi's words.

Hearing Maka's question, Zhang Zhi didn't rush to answer, but thought for a while before saying to Maka, "Let the brothers prepare, let's go to the island first to see."

"Yes." Maca nodded upon hearing Zhang Zhi's words.

Soon, several small boats were released into the sea by Maca and the others, and then forty or so heavily armed islanders boarded the small boats.

Several strong and powerful islanders paddled vigorously towards the island.

After a while, the small boats washed up on the beach.

Zhang Zhi was the first to jump down, and then squatted on the ground looking at the sand on the ground.

"My lord, what's the matter?" Maca also jumped out of the boat, and then saw Zhang Zhi squatting on the ground, staring at the beach in a daze.

"Maka, have you paid attention to the beach on our island?" Zhang Zhi asked with his head down.

"Uh...that's not true." Maka shook her head when she heard Zhang Zhi's words, and then asked, "What's wrong?"

"Maka, you have to remember that sometimes, some small things can provide us with a lot of useful information."

"Ordinary beaches, no matter how soft or fine, the sand will be mixed with some fragments of marine shellfish."

"Some pieces are very thin and small, so the beach will be very soft to step on. If these pieces are large, the beach will be very harsh."

"But there will never be a beach where there is no debris in a handful of sand."

"Such sand is not like sand at the seaside at all, but more like sand in a desert."

After speaking, Zhang Zhi grabbed a handful of sand and put it in front of Maca.I saw the handful of sand slowly falling from between Zhang Zhi's fingers.

Seeing the scattered sand, Maca was also a little lost in thought.

Although Maca has not carefully observed the beach of Myron Island, he at least knows that the sand on the beach is wet no matter what, and it is impossible to catch it and blow it up with the wind.

Maca immediately turned her head, looked at the beach swept by the waves, then walked to the place swept by the sea, and directly grabbed a handful of sand.

Small grains of sand slowly scattered between Maca's fingers.

Seeing this scene, Maca slowly turned his head and said to Zhang Zhi: "My lord, it seems that the situation is not good."

"Well, yes." Zhang Zhi saw the sand scattered from Maca's fingers, and immediately felt that the island was not simple.

"Tell the brothers, be careful later." Zhang Zhi thought for a while and said to Maca.

"Understood." Maka clapped his hands immediately when he heard Zhang Zhi's words, and then called his clansmen to gather.

Not long after, the forty or so people had assembled, and then, under the leadership of Zhang Zhi, they walked towards the depths of the island.

Although the entire island has been deserted, the sun at noon is directly baking the entire island, coupled with the lack of vegetation cover, the current temperature on the island has exceeded 40 degrees.

Before Zhang Zhi and his party had gone far, they were already sweating.

However, such terrain is also beneficial to Zhang Zhi and others.For example, it is so bare and there is no vegetation, at least you don't have to worry about someone attacking you.

Of course, if you have to say, someone can hide under the sand, waiting for Zhang Zhi and the others to take the bait.

Then two problems need to be solved. First, how can the ambush be able to ambush his group in the hot sand with a temperature of more than 40 degrees and a surface temperature of more than 50 degrees.

Another point is to solve, on such a wide island, how to predict the route of his group.

It is impossible to meet these two conditions at the same time, so Zhang Zhi is not worried at all that someone will suddenly emerge from the sand.

However, not worried is not worried, but Zhang Zhi still walked towards it cautiously.

When they walked for about half an hour, Zhang Zhi and the others still hadn't seen the residence of the New Moon tribe.

"You guys take a rest here, I'll go to the sand dunes ahead." Zhang Zhi turned his head, said something to Maca, and then walked quickly towards the sand dunes ahead.

Maka was worried that Zhang Zhi would go alone. He turned his head quickly, said something to his clansmen, and then followed Zhang Zhi's footsteps.

But Zhang Zhi's movements were obviously faster than Maca's.When Maca had just reached the bottom of the dune, Zhang Zhi had already climbed to the top of the dune.

He held up the binoculars on his chest and looked around.Then, all that caught the eye was yellow sand, not a little green, and not inhabited at all.

At the same time, he did not see the border of the island, he only saw a vast expanse of yellow sand extending directly to the horizon.

After looking around, Zhang Zhi didn't see any useful information, so he put down the telescope in his hand unwillingly.

"My lord, what's the matter?" Maca finally climbed to the top of the sand dune, only to see Zhang Zhi's displeased face.

"Look for yourself." Zhang Zhi handed the binoculars to Maca, and then said, "I just looked around us, and I didn't find the residence of the New Moon Tribe."

"And this island is bigger than we thought. It's not so easy to find the New Moon tribe on such a big island."

"Then, what do you want to do, my lord?" Maca heard Zhang Zhi's words, put down the binoculars, and said to him.

"Let's go back to the boat first. I feel that something is wrong with this island. And no matter how you look at this island, it doesn't look like a place with a source of water. If we rashly go deep, it is very likely that we will fall into a situation of water shortage. Then we will It's dangerous." Zhang Zhi thought about it and said to Maca.
