Zhang Heng didn't doubt Annie's strength, so he handed over the two guys to the red-haired girl to deal with, while he took off the clothes inside, made a simple bandage for the wound on his back, and then continued to the direction of the beach run away.

In the end, it took less than twenty-five minutes to run back to the place where the pirates had a bonfire.

However, the situation in front of them is not optimistic. The banquet has been going on for a long time, and most of the pirates have already drunk.

Successfully robbed a Spanish treasure ship, accomplished something that no other pirate had ever done, and put everyone in a good mood, including Sam.

In the past, the pirates in Nassau had cooperated, but it was the first time that six powerful pirate ships had joined forces on the island. This time the operation was off to a good start. Many people had already started Chang thinks of the next time we will work together again, so he also plans to take this opportunity to cultivate friendship together.

Now the gold was just a few hundred yards away, almost within easy reach, and the presence of so many people increased everyone's sense of security.

It must be admitted that the timing of Jarvis's choice is really good.

This was the time when the pirates were most paralyzed. They would never have thought that danger was approaching. Except for the six people who were still guarding the gold, even those who were in charge of patrolling and guarding couldn't help but join in the carnival.

At this moment, the crew of each ship were no longer separated from each other. People from different ships and people from different ships were mixed together side by side. Zhang Heng didn't even find out where the Black Prince Sam was for a while.

Some people saw Zhang Heng come back drunk with a wine bottle to persuade him to drink.

Zhang Heng didn't pick up the wine bottle, but drew a short musket from the opponent's body, and fired a shot towards the sky.

The sudden gunshot made the camp quiet for a moment, but then all the pirates laughed and booed again. They thought it was a little show prepared by Zhang Heng. Some people thought it was fun, so they took off their muskets and followed Open up to the sky together.

For a while, there was a lot of gunfire on the island, accompanied by cheers from the crowd.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Heng knew that resistance was already impossible, and it was simply unrealistic to expect this group of people to take up arms again and come fully armed and prepared for the naval battle.

What he can do now is to tell the news to several captains and tell everyone to evacuate quickly. In order to find Harry, Zhang Heng took away a dozen people who didn't drink much. With this group of people, they should be able to barely drive the Jackdaw. As for whether the other ships can get enough sober manpower to drive the ships, Zhang Heng doesn't know, and he can't do anything about this kind of thing.

Zhang Heng first found Billy in the crowd, but the latter was completely drunk at the moment, lying on the side and sleeping soundly. Zhang Heng woke him up, but he seemed unable to think normally at all. After realizing what Zhang Heng was saying, he opened his mouth wide but didn't know what to do now. He was completely different from the usually calm and reliable helmsman.

Zhang Heng knew that at least tonight he couldn't count on him, so he found a few more crew members, but everyone's condition was not good. The people on the Warrior had been trying to persuade them to drink tonight. For more than an hour, there are not a few people who are as drunk as Billy.

Looking around, Zhang Heng finally found a group of people who were still sober. It turned out to be a chef headed by Ramsay. They didn't drink much because they were busy with barbecue and cooking.

Zhang Heng came to Ramsey and said to the latter, "Find all the crew members as soon as possible, let them gather here, tell them... Forget it, tell them that I am going to send them an extra sum of money, and those who come late will be gone." If you really can’t walk, you can ask someone to help you. Remember, you only have ten minutes. After ten minutes, I will see at least a hundred people here. That can be doubled."

"Okay." Ramsay nodded vigorously, then put down the half-cut mutton in his hand, wiped the oil on his apron, and hurried to find someone.

After arranging things here, Zhang Heng found the cooks of several other ships, including the cook of the Warrior, and asked them to invite their own captain over, saying that he had thought of a way to fish out the gold.

The current situation is even worse than Zhang Heng imagined. He thought that the people on the beach might be drunk, but he did not expect to be so drunk. On the contrary, the people on the Warrior were in the best condition, so although the people on the other ships were They have an advantage in numbers, but if they really fight, it will be difficult to take down Jarvis and his people, at least in a short period of time.

Zhang Heng's only advantage now is probably that Jarvis didn't know that he had already known about his betrayal. The three people in the woods did it because they saw him running wildly. Therefore, Zhang Heng changed his strategy and decided to use this first. Chances are they'll have Jarvis under control, or they'll have a hard time boarding the boat from this beach.

Every second of the wait is excruciating, especially not knowing when that fleet will arrive.

Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Heng took off Billy's clothes, put them on to cover the wound, and then took away the latter's saber and musket.

The first one to come was Brooke from the Swordfish. His condition seemed to be fine, probably because he was still angry. In addition, many people were killed and injured on the Swordfish during this operation. He did not let go tonight. In addition to eating and drinking, and because of the hostile relationship with the Warrior, Jarvis's people didn't bother him much.

He came over to say hello to Zhang Heng, with a surprised look on his face, "Are you able to take out the gold so soon? Great, I don't have to see Jarvis's annoying face anymore."

Zhang Heng shook his head, "No, it's because of other things."

Brook raised his eyebrows. He wanted to ask again, but at this time the second captain also arrived. It was Kemp of the Tiger Shark. After being stopped by the ship's cook, the other captain didn't fare much better.

The Black Prince Sam and Jarvis were the last to arrive. The two were talking and laughing. The Black Prince Sam looked quite sober, but his footsteps were a little staggered. After seeing Zhang Heng, he showed his signature look. He smiled cordially, "We were talking about you just now, where did you go, you disappeared just after the banquet started, we had to drink your helmsman down, to be honest, I like him quite a bit, if you don't If I come back, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist digging him into my boat."

However, his voice stopped abruptly the next moment, because Zhang Heng suddenly pulled out the short musket on his waist and pointed it at Jarvis beside him, "I'm sorry, I didn't want to disturb your carnival, but I'm afraid the dinner party tonight It's going to end early."
