Zhang Heng was surrounded by a group of pirates and rushed to the officer's restaurant on the ship. In the previous battle, his marvelous marksmanship left a deep impression on everyone, especially the last shot, almost by himself. He turned the tide of the battle and won the praise and support of the pirates, so as soon as the battle ended, many pirates took him to drink.
Even the son of the farmer was dragged there together. Everyone was also interested in how he bit the throat of a British soldier with his teeth. Originally, Marvin was not very popular on the ship, but after this incident, the pirates Their opinion of him had also changed, and he was flattered to have two pirates hanging out with him.
As a result, this group met Orff who was walking towards him on the way, and they couldn't help but look embarrassed. Although the battle was over, there were still many follow-up things. Almost each of them had many tasks on them. Going to drink is not a wise choice by any means.
However, for the first time this time, Orff did not criticize anyone. Instead, he nodded at Zhang Heng, "Good job!"
The group of pirates were stunned for a while, and then burst into cheers. They puffed out their chests, sang songs and continued looking for wine.
Orff's last sentence, but don't delay work, was heard by few people at all, and those who heard it tried their best to pretend that they didn't know anything.
Orff shook his head and knocked on the door of the captain's cabin.
A deep voice came from inside, "Come in."
"The captives are being transferred to the Sea Lion in batches by small boats, and Owen is recruiting manpower there, mainly gunners. After all, we now have 90 artillery pieces." Orff paused, "Also, that guy is now locked up. In the carpenter's house, I honestly thought you were going to kill him."
"In your eyes, am I such a disregard for the overall situation?" The man with the black beard was still wearing the blood-stained coat from the previous battle, and the bleeding wound on his arm had not been bandaged by the ship doctor, but he But he didn't care. He took out two glasses from the drawer and poured red wine, "The culprit of that incident is still there. Compared with him, Elmer is just a small character. We can't fall here, but as an accomplice One, Elmer will pay the price, I can assure you of that."
Orff took the wine glass and let out a sigh, "It has been fourteen years in the blink of an eye, and we have finally come to this point. To be honest, I thought there was no hope for several years in between. Now the people on that list are only Belo Monte is left, and our mission is finally about to be completed. I am not young, and I plan to retire after this matter is over. I will find a place where there are no people, go fishing, raise flowers, and live a little longer. Peaceful life, what about you, what are your plans, is Miss Agnes still writing to you?"
The man with the black beard on the opposite side was silent for a moment.
"You and I know this very well in our hearts. Once we embark on this road, there is no possibility for us to turn back, isn't it Orff?" the man said lightly, "If civilization can't bring me justice, then I will destroy it with savagery."
"Heh, this really seems like something you would say, so let me walk the last part of the journey with you." Orff raised the glass in his hand and drank it down. After drinking, he stood up, "The morale on the ship is not bad at present, but based on what I know about Fraser, he will not give up so easily. That old thing is like a poisonous snake, but he doesn't know where it is lurking, waiting for us to show his flaws. It will kill us."
"You are the helmsman on this ship, you will solve this hidden danger for us, right?"
"I'll try my best. We're still the same as before. You're in charge of fighting, and I'm in charge of taking care of those guys on the ship. I can't imagine what will happen after you leave me." Orff shrugged, walked to the door, and opened it Just as he was about to leave the handle, he seemed to remember something.
"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot the most important thing, this ship is ours now, let's give her a new name."
"Name?" Something was burning in his eyes behind the wooden table, but his tone was calmer than the calm sea, "Then call her the Queen Anne's Revenge."
Orff raised his eyebrows, "Well, it sounds good, I like this name, enjoy this victory that belongs to you, Teach, I'll take care of the rest."
After speaking, he walked out of the captain's cabin and closed the wooden door behind him.
...
Zhang Heng didn't know how many drinks he had been given. Fortunately, the alcohol content was not high at this time, and all the pirates were celebrating this miraculous victory.
A mere one hundred and seventy people raided and seized this giant ship carrying seven hundred sailors, and there were more than four hundred prisoners alone. If this kind of thing had not been witnessed with their own eyes, no one would believe it.
Such a record is enough for any pirate to brag about in the tavern for a lifetime, and everyone can only listen obediently below.
With this ship, they can walk sideways in this sea area in the future, and they can snatch whoever they want, without any natural enemies.
The pirates couldn't sit still. After drinking for a while in the officer's restaurant, they began to look at this freshly baked trophy with great interest. After a vote, everyone unanimously decided to keep the little band that belonged to Elmer. .
Now those few poor musicians are playing triumphant songs behind the ass of the pirates. Before that, what they played for Ermera were all popular music in the upper class. However, this kind of elegant stuff is obviously not popular among pirates. popular.
More than once they have been unreasonably asked to play something to make everyone happy.
This feeling of watching works of art being defiled is unbearable for every aspiring musician. However, when they saw the dangling knives in the hands of the pirates, the musicians finally decided to put down their dignity and choose to live with the people. happy.
"I can't imagine that we actually did it!" A gunner excitedly stroked a 24-pound gun on the second deck, "With this thing, I can blow everything that stands in our way to pieces .”
"Be careful, Bill, only a real man can control such a big guy." Another old gunner said, and the pirates laughed again.
"I can't wait to have a big fight with her! Imagine the eyes of those merchant ships when they saw us, I even feel a little pity for them." A pirate gloated.
After he said this, the music suddenly stopped, which made him a little dissatisfied, "Why don't you continue to play, did I ask you to stop?"
"I told them to stop." A voice sounded from behind him.
Orff slowly walked out from the crowd.
