Reborn As a Pirate

v2 Chapter 185: DAY 2: Male and Female

Lowland forest area, this is what the locals call for the small piece of long forest that borders the eastern tidal flats among the large sparse forests surrounding Le Lorraine.

   This long and narrow forest is only six to seven hundred meters wide and three to four hundred meters deep. The two wings are relatively high, the middle valley is gently lowered, and the gentle soil **** extends from west to east until it connects with the vast beach near the sea.

   This is probably the area with the worst view along the tidal flat line. The terrain is basically a huge valley. Whether it is looking at the sea or the forest, it is easy to block the view and it is difficult to feel the magnificence.

   But there are unique advantages here.

Because it is connected to the tidal flat, the entire ring tidal flat line, here is the hunting area where the shooter is closest to the seabirds. The first shooting point can basically be controlled within 50 meters, and it can be 100 meters or even more than 200 meters from other areas. Can't speak the same day.

   Hunting, first of all, you have to shoot, and that's called hunting.

   In the era of no rifling, the actual combat distance of line shooting was only 7 to 10 meters, while the range that ordinary shooters can accurately grasp through training is about 30 meters.

  The theoretical effective range of the gun is longer. Classics such as the British brown bass are probably in meters, and the latest French Charville can reach 85 meters.

   This is almost the limit of a mortal.

The chassman is the king of long spears in this era. The minimum standard for France to evaluate a chaser is to use Charville to accurately hit a range of 150 meters. The Americans have set a sniper record of 500 meters. However, they use Kentucky. Rifling guns are generally not used. It is used as a standard for judging conventional firepower.

It can be seen that although the first shot point of 50 meters is farther away, it just allows the skilled hunters to show their light, and compared to the barbaric act of sticking to the bird’s nest, it is popular in Le Lorraine’s summer white. Pelican hunting is more of a unique taste of elite socialism.

  Of course, Miss Emily cannot understand this noble taste involving professional knowledge.

   The carriage slowly stopped in an open shade of trees, Miss Emily shook the folding fan gently, and stretched out a silky embroidered little finger to open a white gauze covering the window.

   The sun shone in, reflecting the dazzling brilliance on her emerald green woven skirt.

   "It's so good... Mi Wei, what if such a poisonous sun burns my skin?"

   The accompanying maid gave a smile, conjured like a box of exquisite ointment from the palm of her hand.

"Miss, Madam is ready for a long time. This is the most popular pearl cream of the Eastern royal family. It was brought by a group of ocean-going merchants in Boston. I heard that it is mixed with pearl powder and pollen and mixed with colorless and odorless fish oil. It is not only sunscreen. , It can also nourish the skin."

   "Oriental Royal Family!" Miss Emily almost screamed, covering her small mouth, "Is it the group of luxurious nobles who use gold to make their shoes? What do they use?"

   "Yes! The whole Madam Le Lorraine was the first to buy it. This small box is worth more than one hundred and sixty pounds, which is too extravagant."

   "Mother, long live!"

   The two girls laughed, and carefully smeared their bare arms and necks with a more expensive ointment.

The beautiful face does not need extra protection. In order to cope with this important date, Miss Emily used trendy white lead make-up. The tough protective shell is not necessarily penetrated even if it is shot at close range with a musket. , Nothing more than that.

   Someone clicked the door lightly, Miss Emily hurriedly sat upright, lifted the veil, put on a dignified smile, and waited for the maid to open the door.

Captain Zirned, known as the noble son of Martinique, stood solemnly outside the door, with his left hand back on his back and his right hand on his chest. The sea-blue captain's suit set off his tall and straight figure, and his smile like a spring breeze shined more fiercely than the sun. Colors.

   "Miss Emily Prio, your beauty has fascinated the whole world. Please allow me to invite you to get off the car and admire the extraordinary skills of my great French fighters."

   "It's a great honor, Mr. Captain." Miss Emily nodded 15 degrees just right, and with her slightly drooping eyes, she showed long and thick eyelashes in front of Zirned.

   "This is the most beautiful eye in the world, comparable to the crystal clear gems of East Africa."

   "You know so much."

   "Seafarers, wherever French civilization shines, we know everything."

   Zirned reached out the back of his hand, caught Miss Emily's slender hand, and helped her jump out of the carriage.

   While the young lady was not standing still, Zirned suddenly flipped his hand, and her fingers touched her. Miss Emily dodged like a frightened bird.

   "Miss, this is..."

  Miss Emily smiled slyly, sticking out the tip of her tongue slightly, and tapping her delicate lips.

"No, Mr. Captain. The teacher once told me that the distance between men and women is very long, and maybe they will never be exhilarated by the same thing in their life. But the distance between men and women is very close, calling names, holding hands, Hugs, kisses, the two will be intimate."

   She raised her hand and shook her finger like a dance: "I admit that I don't feel bad for you, but again, you haven't been able to attract me."

   "Is it abrupt? I apologize." Zirned bowed again, "Please allow me to use today's rich schedule to make up for my fault."

   "I have work."

"On this beautiful coast, we will enjoy a leisurely midsummer afternoon. Sunshine, sea breeze, fresh fruit, fine wine... Lunch is the most famous seabird sandwich at the navy banquet. To this end, I also brought the best on board. Elite shooters."

   "They are the pride of the French navy. Under my command, they have defeated countless fierce enemies, and their reputation has spread throughout the Caribbean ocean!"

   Listening to Zirned’s ebullient speech, to be honest, Miss Emily is a little sleepy...

   The so-called elites with sweat and other strange smells couldn't interest her, but fortunately, Zirned holding such a group of soldiers in her hands became interesting in her eyes.

   Power is the expensive jewelry worn by a man, whether it is expensive or jewelry, it is Miss Emily's beloved thing.

   She especially knows how to deal with such a scene.

   At this point, Miss Emily opened the folding fan to cover her small mouth, pretending to be surprised and let out a sigh of "Ah".

   "Mr. Captain, are these sailors the best fighters in the world?"

"Of course it is!" Zirned smiled proudly. "Stepping on the violent wind and huge waves, rolling on the bumpy deck, as long as they are close to the death distance of 30 meters, my soldiers can use lead bombs to open the enemy. Heads. They are the top sharpshooters in the world. The swaying warship is invincible, not to mention a group of wild birds living on land."

   "With such a loyal fighter, you must have a bright future?"

"Correct, it won't happen." Zirned kissed his fingertips and pointed out the rank to Miss Emily. "A 28-year-old major, with a record of unbeaten victory, I am destined to become a general. Sooner or later, wear the crown of the nobleman and stand in front of the king."

   Miss Emily looked longing: "I really want to see such a grand scene with my own eyes."

   "You will see." Zirned stepped forward and reached out to cover Miss Emily's waist.

  Miss Emily smiled and avoided again, and pointed to the completed archer platform: "Let's enjoy the hunt, Mr. Captain, Emily is hungry."

   "Hunting...hunting..." Zirned laughed awkwardly. "Today's prey is a bit cunning."

  ……

   With an order, the hunting began.

   The archers lined up along the tidal flat, each standing in a standing position to search for the prey in front of them.

   The white pelicans live close to the sea, and don't like the end of the beach that is too dry. The shooting range of more than 50 meters makes every shooter a little uneasy, so that no one fires the most sure first shot.

  The bored Miss Emily gradually lost her patience. Zirned looked at her, and the expression on her face gradually became cold.

   He called the adjutant to his side and said softly: "Wait any longer, my prey will be gone, Lieutenant."

   "Yes! Sir! I'm going to urge them!"

   Hurry, anxious, lack of preparation.

   Under more and more urgent pressure, a shooter finally fired the first shot, bang!

   The lead bullet flew out and started to deflect at more than 20 meters, drifting farther and farther, perfectly avoiding the target, and hitting a boulder on the beach.

   flock of birds flew up.

The chaotic image of    hula-la alarmed the other shooters on standby, and the gunfire rang out in succession, as expected, it failed to hit any target.

  Miss Emily opened her mouth silently, hurriedly changed into just the right amount of worship and ignorance, took the initiative to grab Zirned's sleeve, and said timidly: "Mr. Captain, the wind... is so big."

"Wind...ah...this **** wind!" Zirned Fu said to his heart, "this **** wind is really disturbing, sorry, miss, now the sky is full of wild birds, in order not to hurt the innocent, we only I can wait patiently for a while."

   "You are so kind."

   "We are soldiers. If we abandon our kindness~lightnovelpub.net~, wouldn’t we be like wild animals?"

   Zirned regained his self-confidence at once, searched his stomach, and wanted to make another battle for his own face.

   "Miss probably doesn't know that shooting at the beach is always full of accidents, just like the current gust of wind. Under such strong winds, no matter how good a shooter can hit the target, wait for the wind, wait for the waves, and defeat everything, that is..."

  嘭!

   There was a gunshot in the distance, and a soaring white pelican fell.

   Miss Emily stared blankly, and blurted out subconsciously: "Ah, I got hit..."

   Zirned almost backed away with a few breaths, and then barely continued the topic.

   "There is no absolute in the world, and momentary luck is amazing, but if you mistake luck for strength..."

  嘭! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

   There were five gunshots steadily and quickly, each of which killed a pelican, and each of which caused the flock of birds to fly away.

   When the gunshot ends, the flying birds in the sky are gone, and the sky above the tidal flat is full of danger. Even if it is not time for hunting, they are willing to go to sea to survive!

   Miss Emily tilted her head to look at the clear sky, and thoughtfully squeezed out a smiling face: "Mr. Captain, my mother once said that red wine and bread are supremely delicious, maybe God just doesn’t want us to miss the food..."

"Perhaps so..." Zirned gritted his teeth, gritted his teeth, and looked at the invisible sound source. "But that kind of food needs help from external objects. I think about it, the gallows... how ?"
