Although Annie herself felt that it didn't matter, Zhang Heng still arranged a separate lounge for her on the ship.
It was the place where the replacement officers on the original ship lived. The space is not big, only about six square meters, but it is enough for one person to live in.
Annie took off her shirt and lay on the bed, asking Zhang Heng to change the gauze on the wound on her back.
There is still no ship doctor on the Jackdaw, and there is no way to do it, because not only the Jackdaw, but all the pirate ships in Nassau now lack ship doctors, and even many people who are not medical majors are forced to do so as long as they have a little knowledge of daily life Pulled onto the boat, some pirates will go out to sea to snatch people when they are cornered.
Even so, at least half of the ships still do not have ship doctors, and the level of doctors in this era is also generally worrying. Although there have been surgical operations, there is no concept of disinfection. Therefore, Zhang Heng is still more used to doing it himself. He bandaged the wound of the red-haired girl, and the latter sat up from the bed generously, and put on her clothes in front of someone without shy away from anything.
Zhang Heng then said to Annie, "Thank you for your hard work."
He was talking about boarding the Happiness before, because Zhang Heng was worried that they would be seen as inferior in numbers, so Zhang Heng brought almost everyone who could fight there, only cooks, carpenters and other special people were left. For the combat profession, Zhang Heng also distributed weapons to them and asked them to stand on the deck of the Jackdaw as heads.
But even so, when he boarded the Happiness with 30 people, he could still feel the hesitation and unwillingness of the sailors on the ship, especially when handing over weapons, everyone was dawdling, and the captain's eyes were even more evasive.
After collecting the weapons, Anne took the initiative to apply to take someone to check the goods in the warehouse below, but they also encountered an ambush there. Some of the young naval cadets were unwilling to be held hostage by pirates, and changed with the sailors on the deck. Clothes, a total of twelve people, hid in the cargo hold.
At that time, there were only six pirates around Annie, and the battle broke out without warning when the seven of them reached the door of the warehouse.
Anne reacted the fastest and immediately lay down on the ground. The pirate behind her was not so lucky, and was shot in the head. Then the red-haired girl jumped up from the ground and chopped down a naval student in front of her. At the same time, he pulled out the dagger from his waist with his left hand and stabbed it into the chest of another person.
But at this moment, she was also in a very dangerous situation. Originally, the pirates were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and the people behind were caught off guard. They hadn't reacted yet, and Anne was surrounded by herself.
Although she killed the two of them at the fastest speed, other people's attacks also came. The red-haired girl lowered her head and dodged a black gun not far away, but was slashed in the back by a knife. As a result, she just With a muffled grunt, she swayed, but the wound on her back aroused the ferocity in her bones, and directly hacked to death the person who attacked her with a backhand knife.
In less than half a minute, she killed two enemies one after another in one breath, and seriously injured another, but she didn't even bat an eye.
The naval students who were still training in school had never seen such a fierce opponent before, and the rest of them were all shocked by the aura of the red-haired girl, and no one dared to make another move.
At this time, the five pirates behind also rushed in, and the morale of those students who had finally gathered together was completely broken. Although they still had the advantage in numbers, they obediently handed over their weapons one by one.
The people above the warehouse also heard the gunshots from below, and the sailors who had already surrendered suddenly became agitated. Zhang Heng knew that it was not the time to be humanitarian, and he was more worried about Annie's safety, so Decisively chose the quickest solution.
Zhang Heng pulled out the short musket in front of his chest as quickly as possible, and pulled the trigger directly at the captain of the Happiness. As the latter fell to the ground with an unbelievable expression, the crowd suddenly fell silent.
Originally, many people looked at Zhang Heng as a young man, thinking that he would look forward and back and be timid when faced with chaotic situations, and wanted to take this opportunity to fight for it, but after seeing this shot, the feeling just rose in his heart. The flames went out again.
After regaining control of the deck, Zhang Heng immediately dispatched five more people to help. However, Anne had already brought the rest of the pirates up. The red-haired girl's back was still bleeding, but her expression was like As if nothing happened, he waved his hand to make the pirates behind him throw twelve heads on the deck, looked around, grinned and said, "Who else wants to try?!"
Until this moment, all the people on the Happiness finally gave up the idea of resistance completely, and no one dared to move around after the pirates transported all the cargo on the ship to the Jackdaw. After that, Zhang Heng asked someone to move some of them from the ship. Food and fresh water go back to ensure that the Jackdaw can return to Nassau smoothly.
This battle not only calmed down all the sailors on the Bliss, but also changed the way the pirates on the Jackdaw looked at Annie, especially the five pirates who went down to the cargo hold with her and came back alive. His eyes couldn't help but be filled with fear and admiration.
And the details of the battle on the way back were recounted countless times by them. Most of the pirates had relatively simple minds. Many of them had privately expressed their disapproval of the captain's appointment of a woman as bosun dissatisfaction, but at the same time, I will worship and respect the strong from the bottom of my heart.
After this incident, no one on the ship used Annie's gender to talk about things anymore, and the latter also further secured her position as the bosun of the Jackdaw, but the price was that she couldn't get out of bed for three days in a row.
The opponent didn't stay strong with that knife, the wound was deep, and completely tore the muscles on the girl's back. Fortunately, the battle ended quickly enough, Zhang Heng dealt with Annie immediately, and the red-haired girl's recovery The force was strong enough to make her jump alive again before approaching the land.
Annie pulled the wound while she was getting dressed, bared her teeth, and said a little strangely, "When did you become so polite? I came on board to help you, not to cause trouble for you. Since you appointed me to be the ship Bosun, I'm sure I'm going to show some boatswain air."
"I know you are very skilled, but it was a more reasonable choice to retreat to the deck first under the circumstances." Zhang Heng said helplessly.
"Then they had a successful sneak attack experience. If we want to take down the cabin, we will have to pay a higher price, and those guys on the deck will become restless." The red-haired girl said confidently.
Zhang Heng was a little surprised when he heard the words. He didn't expect Annie to think so meticulously. This was not like his usual carefree personality. "So this was your real thought at the time?"
"No, I just thought this was my first battle after becoming the captain of the boat, and I couldn't escape no matter what, otherwise it would be too embarrassing."
