Seeing the black shadow, Difrene immediately became nervous, "What should I do? Are you going to prepare to meet the enemy?"
"How many sober gunners do we still have?" Zhang Heng and Annie may be the only two who can calm down now, and the latter looks at the menacing fleet in the distance without fear.
"Four." Mr. Quartermaster smiled wryly, "But I also worked as a gunner for a period of time in the early years, if necessary..."
"This manpower and firepower are meaningless at all." Zhang Heng shook his head and said decisively, "Put down the top sail, and before they have adjusted their formation, let's rush over."
Di Frena was shocked when he heard this, "There are seven ships on the opposite side, how can we withstand this firepower."
"There is no other way, we can only fight this time." Zhang Heng said, "Staying here is just waiting to die, and we will have no chance at all when they line up and completely seal the port. As long as we are fast enough to rush among them, they will Concerned about our companions, only two or three ships can attack us at most, and with the strength of the Jackdaw, it may be able to survive."
After Zhang Heng finished speaking, he glanced back in the direction of the beach. The people there also noticed the warship suddenly appearing outside the port, and panic and confusion erupted.
They are all the best pirates in Nassau, and now they gather together for the same goal, and they have achieved a feat that all pirates have never done before. The navy's fleet may not be without a fight, but now it seems to be unable to do anything except shout and run like headless chickens on the beach.
The only one who has not given up is Black Prince Sam. He is still directing the manpower to adjust the artillery on the shore, but his figure at this moment looks a little lonely in the night.
Jarvis was sitting on the boat, originally paddling towards the shore, but changed his attention when he saw a navy ship appearing in the distance, turned around and waved his hand while paddling towards the leading warship.
But at this time, Zhang Heng had no time to care about other people's movements. He looked away, scanned the faces of everyone on the deck, and saw anxiety and despair on each face. At this moment, everyone's face was written Full of helplessness and hesitation.
Until the deep and powerful voice sounded again in the darkness.
"Don't worry, I'll take you home."
...
The naval fleet came too fast, beyond everyone's expectations. Even the Swordfish, which was determined to leave, hadn't gathered all the crew members yet, and it was obviously too late to board the ship at this time.
Brook's face was pale. Perhaps the only thing that could give him some comfort was the Jackdaw not far away. Although he boarded the ship earlier than them, it seemed that he couldn't leave this time.
However, no one expected that the Jackdaw not only did not retreat but rushed towards the opponent without hesitation, even though he had already seen the fleet appearing outside the port.
This almost suicidal action made many people stunned. On the leading naval ship, Walden, the naval officer in charge of commanding this operation, stood on the deck and looked at the Jackdaw who came alone with a calm expression. , asked the adjutant beside him, "Is this the battleship we lost before?"
"There is a change in appearance, it should have been remodeled, but yes, sir, this is the battleship Glory we lost in Charleston." After observing carefully, he said.
"How can there be any glory? The glory of the Royal Navy in this sea area has been lost by that idiot Elmer, and now I need to clean up the mess he left." Walden shook his head and said, "Fire, Don't let go of any of them."
"Well… "
"What's the matter, is there any question?"
"Captain Jarvis' boat is very close to them now, if we fire now..."
"Are you a rookie who just graduated from the Naval Academy? Didn't you hear my order just now? When I said don't let anyone go, I meant Jarvis and his brutal men with blood on their hands." Everyone, don't let it go."
"But... aren't we an alliance? Captain Jarvis has been passing on information to us for this operation. Isn't there an agreement between him and Earl Lambert? After this is done, Earl Lambert will give the Warrior pardons for the crew of the Queen's Regime..."
The adjutant was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
"Open your eyes and see, Chris, right now, right in front of us, there on the beach over there is not our kind at all, but a herd of beasts, you know they fought against the Earl of Bellomont and Watt in Charleston What did the Governor do, by the way, and that idiot Elmer, they robbed the Scarborough and then killed everyone on it, that's a whole, seven hundred fucking, sailors! More Not to mention the other civilians in the city." Walden paused every word.
"Do you know why Earl Lambert asked the Admiralty to send me here to solve the security threat in this sea area, child?"
"Because of your great success against pirates?"
"No, it's because I never compromised with those beasts. I know there are some voices in the upper class recently, saying that we should use some kinder and gentler methods, but I can guarantee that I am not that kind of person. You really think I Let these thugs with blood on their hands simply wash away their sins, return to civilized society, live a happy life, and then we pretend nothing happened
"No such good thing, it won't work in my place, so do me a favor and kill everything that moves in front of your eyes right now, no one will know what happened tonight but us, we can complete our mission, Earl Lambert can also preserve his reputation... Now, is my order clear enough?"
"Yes, sir." Chris swallowed.
"Fine, let's get started."
The betrayal of Jarvis on the beach has been confirmed, and the crew of the Warrior and other pirates have also launched an attack. Because they have been prepared, the crew of the Warrior didn't drink much tonight, and they still kept their heads clear, and their weapons were all unarmed. It was at hand, so it had the upper hand at first, but this could not erase the gap in numbers between the two sides.
With the passage of time, Black Prince Sam and several other captains have stabilized the line and began to switch from defense to offense. On the other hand, everyone on the Warriors became a little confused after the attack was frustrated because of Jarvis' absence. In addition, he was at a disadvantage in terms of momentum.
However, Jarvis obviously didn't want to take the risk to go back to the beach to organize resistance, and he was still struggling to paddle towards the warship not far away.
