Chapter 130: aims

"Sorry, I didn't disturb your celebration." Orff began, and at the same time glanced at the pirates. A few more standing guys were in a bad situation and wanted to sneak away, but then Listening to the old helmsman again, "Don't be nervous, I'm not here to hold you out of duty. After all, we just won a very beautiful battle. I want to say that I am honored to be with you. There's nothing wrong with proper indulgence at the right time, right? "

He said that all the pirates were relieved, and they returned to the lively atmosphere that had previously been chaotic, and some people ridiculed that Orff had been shot by a rookie sailor to his life in the previous battle.

Orff scolded him back, and then said after a while, "I seem to have heard who said you want to do something?"

The pirate who spoke before hearing the words stood up, "Mr. Orff, everyone wants to know when we will get a ticket. With this ship, we can win any prey now!"

His words immediately attracted applause and echoes. It is the dream of every man to drive a battleship such as Scarborough. Although the wounds on his body are not good enough, many people can't help itching. .

"Very well, let's try the power of these cannons." Orff was satisfied.

"Now?" The pirates were somewhat inexplicable, the battle was over, and there were no other prey around them. At this time, how to test the power of the cannon and hit the air?

"Who said we had no target," Orff pointed at the Sea Lion in the distance. "Isn't that a ready-made target?"

The latter is now floating on the sea, looking a bit listless. The deck is full of densely packed British navy. The majority of them look low, and people's eyes are full of confusion. Until now, I couldn't understand how the battle was. What is more terrible to lose is not knowing what fate will be waiting for them after returning.

This time, not only the casualties were heavy, the Scarborough was lost, the chief mate was killed, and even the captain was robbed. The opponent was not a regular army. It was just a group of pirates. It was the greatest shame in the history of the entire Royal Navy, and they were now nailed to the pillar of shame.

Looking at the Scarborough not far away, many people couldn't help crying.

On the other side, on the second deck of Queen Anne's Vengeance, the pirates fell into silence.

The civilized world regards them as beasts and villains. These guys are not opposed to this statement, and even a little complacent, because only enough people can survive in this area.

They are accompanied by storms, and they face the threat of the navy, the reef, the pirate hunter, and even other pirates every time they go to sea. The weak will be eliminated and the fearless warriors will be left behind. They regard the queen and the law. If nothing, this does not mean that they have no taboos.

As men, they attached great importance to their commitments. Before that, their captain had promised the crew on the opposite side that as long as the navy dropped their weapons, they would not hurt them, but now Orff wants to tear up this commitment and let them to a group of defenceless people fire.

This made them somewhat unacceptable. After a long silence, someone couldn't help but say, "We have never done this before. Is this the captain's order?"

"Will it be good for me to forge an order?" Orff spread his arms.

"According to the regulations, we only need to accept the captain's order unconditionally in the battle," another said. "Now that the battle is over, I think this matter can be voted on."

"Don't be stupid, do you know what the consequences of letting these people go back, and soon every port will know that the Scarborough has fallen into the hands of the pirates, they will call for manpower and build a battery. You think this time Will Belomont still go to Charleston for his daughter's wedding? And missing this opportunity, it is not so easy to catch such a big man. "

Orff frowned, "We can't take such risks. What the captain said before was just to stabilize the situation at the time. After all, we were in a disadvantaged position. More than 100 exhausted people were going to capture more than 400 armed forces. Tooth soldiers, it ’s impossible without a trick. Gentlemen, do n’t forget the purpose of our battle. If there is no treasure, why should we take such a risk to grab this ship? ”

The last words of the old helmsman finally touched the pirates on the deck. They found it hard to find Kidd's treasure, and they paid a unimaginable price along the way. The original group now has less than a third left. If at this time, due to the weakness of a momentary weakness, no one can accept the consequences of such a thing.

The last boat carrying the sailor was near the Sea Lion. The people on the deck dropped the soft ladder to pick up the people below. Anyway ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Compared with those dead comrades, they are still alive. No doubt lucky.

Although losing the post-war future is uncertain, there is still hope as long as it can survive. At this time, there is much less separation between military officers and sailors. Quartermasters are distributing hard biscuits with worms inside. The captain's room was also given to the wounded, but at this moment the crowd suddenly rioted.

Because they saw Scarborough, not far away, suddenly opening its muzzle, like a deep-sea monster showing its sharp teeth.

"God!" The quartermaster's basket fell to the ground, and the cookies inside were scattered everywhere. He opened his mouth wide, his eyes full of despair.

At the same time, panic was spreading on the deck at an incredible speed. The sailors were instinctively driven to flee, but the surrounding sea was vast, and they did not know where they could escape. The only thing they kept was soberness A small number of people wanted to untie the ropes and set sail, but everything was too late.

No one knows the range of these cannons better than these people on board.

Edward Titch stood quietly in the captain's room and looked at the Sea Lion submerged by artillery. It was like a dilapidated toy, beaten by a wayward child, and eventually turned into a fragment.

The salvo lasted for a full five minutes. When it was all over, there was only the silent burning sea surface, and a half-broken mast undulating with the waves.

"Sorry, God is not here today."
