Chapter 874 Pirate Attack
"Notify the flagship that the pirates are coming!" Stoke shouted, and this sudden full rudder only turned the Galen merchant ship 90 degrees! The whole ship tilted at a 45-degree angle. How could the people on the ship stand firmly and slide to the deck one after another! Some unfixed items and barrels slipped to the port side! The shouting and cursing sounded into a sound!
On the open-wheeled paddle sailboat that was following behind, Zhang Fan Aken was very surprised to see a sudden turn of the pilot ship in front of him. Do you want to go and see what's going on? Zhang Fan immediately said to Aken.
Aken nodded, jumped into the sea and disappeared without saying a word. When he could breathe in the water and appeared again, he had already come to the Galen merchant ship leading the voyage. Aken jumped onto the deck like a flying fish from the water, grabbed a panicked black sailor and asked Stoke where he was going.
Then he ran to the steering wheel and asked Stoke loudly, "What the hell is going on?"
"We must run fast! That's the most vicious pirate in the Caribbean!" Stoke pointed to those small black spots on the starboard sea.
"Even if they are pirates, you don't have to run away as soon as you see a shadow?! Don't you think it's shameful?" Aken glanced at the three small black dots and said angrily. This is simply the so-called escape from the wind!
"You don't know the horror of these guys! Don't think that with that ghost ship, you can be invincible!" Stoke shouted, "They are the nightmare of the Caribbean!"
Aken was surprised to hear this. He knew that the scene would not let the ringman leisurely. This old navigator Stoke is probably sending a message, a powerful message from the other party. I'm afraid that even if my team has an ark, a bone dragon, a Willis Dornier, a big killer like 'Faith Storm', and even a summoning support like Ao Lingyaoji King Kong, it can't resist! What is the beginning of the three ships coming from the opposite side?!
Aken did not ask Stoker about the origin of his opponent, because it did not help whether he could defeat his opponent. He asked very cleverly, "I want to know how many powerful pirates are there in the whole Caribbean Sea like those who came ahead?"
"How much?!" Stoke exclaimed, "Five groups of these Caribbean hooligans have filled this small Caribbean!" How can you ask them how many they have?!"
"Five pirate fleets..." Aken narrowed his eyes and looked at the three bigger black spots where the sea and the sky meet. How do you know that they must be coming for us?
"The treasures piled up on your big ship are as obvious to these greedy guys as a group of sharks with blood emanating blood in the sea! This group of guys must have already got the news of Port Harkot's eyeliner and are waiting to intercept us here! I should have thought of this a long time ago." Stoke turned the bow and replied, "It's not too late to run now. Our ship is so fast that they can't catch up with it!"
"What is the ranking of this group of pirates among the five most powerful pirate fleets?" Acon stared at Stoke and pressed the steering wheel so that the ship could not turn around.
Stoke was not as strong as Arken, so he had to answer his question first: "The 'Blood Lion' pirate Group is one of the five most notorious pirate groups in the Caribbean. They claim to be descendants of Vikings. In the wanted notice of the Spanish fleet, their bounty ranked fourth. But all the plundering captains know that it is because of the third-ranked pirate group with five ships, and three of them are Karak-type galleys!"
"The 'Blood Lion' pirate group has only three ships, and there is only one Carak sailboat of more than 500 tons, and the other two are Galen-type fast sailboats. If one-on-one, the 'Blood Lion' pirate group is much more powerful than the 'Vikto' pirate group of the five ships! Once again, in the fight in Jamaica's hidden port, Hook, the leader of the 'Blood Lion' pirate group, almost twisted Victor's head off! If it hadn't been for Victor's begging for mercy! You know, in Captain Hooker's captain's room, there is a lion's head that he hunted himself! Captain Hooker solved the adult lion with only a sailor's knife! But he also paid the price of a right hand!"
"It seems to be a respectable opponent!" Aken smiled and loosened the steering wheel.
"Respectable? If you were skinned by him, you wouldn't think so if you hung it on the mast!" Stoke said helplessly.
Aken patted him on the shoulder, "Where are you going to let us go? Do you want to drive back to Africa?
Stock thought for a moment and said, "If we can avoid his first round of impact, then turn to the upper wind, make a 20-nautical detour south, and then rush into the anchorage of the hidden port of Barbados while they follow the pursuit, we will be safe!"
Aken's strange eyes turned, "Safe? I think it's sent to the Jedi. Won't this Captain Hooker kill into the hidden harbor and take away our treasure?
"According to the Pirate Convention, no ship after entering the hidden port shall engage in any form of combat! Otherwise, you will face the attack of all pirate ships! This is a convention between the five largest pirate groups in the Caribbean and hundreds of pirate groups and predatory captains! Blood Lion can't violate this rule by itself!" Stoke said.
"So it is..." Acon pondered. He stood on the side of the ship and stared at the rapidly approaching pirate ships. A strange smile gradually curved out of his mouth and muttered, "Is it the 'Blood Lion' pirate group?"
Aken turned to Stoke and said, "Just follow your plan... I think you can succeed..."
Stoke drew a cross on his chest and looked at the sky devoutly. "God bless, I hope so..." He said in his heart: "Black Mary, maybe we are really going to meet..."
Aken, who looked at the sea on the other side, could only hear the sound by himself and said softly, "Of course there is no problem with this plan, because Captain Hooke is trying to block us in the hidden harbor..."
Aken reported the current situation to Zhang Fan and then put forward his own point of view: "There is no doubt that the purpose of this 'blood lion' pirate group is to block us in the hidden port, and then kill us as soon as we leave the port. And in the port, the captain named Hook will definitely oppress us by means!"
"But I want to participate in tasks that won't be completed for us. Although our fleet is inferior to the 'Blood Lion' pirate group. But there must be a way to defeat them. I think we should try it, at least to see the strength of this pirate group. If it is really not an opponent, we can also put the Ark into the space and run away separately. It's not a mistake!"
Zhang Fan didn't make a sound. The book demon said lightly, "It's not as easy as you said. Maybe after we start fighting, the ship will not be able to enter the space. Otherwise, the scene will lose the meaning of naval battle. Let's run away. Whether it's fleeing into a hidden port or somewhere else, in short, it's not the time to fight hard.
"I agree... If we lose this ship, we will lose the fundamentals in this scene in the future, and we can't take risks with it. Be cautious." Zhang Fan echoed.
"I hate to run away without fighting!" Aken frowned, "I don't think it's that bad... We still have armored dragons that can leak their flagships... and bone dragons and wooden owls attack from the air! There are Willis and Dornier in the battle, and the long-range and faith storm will kill at least one of their ships. There is no reason to lose! If you don't try, I won't!"
Although Bone Dragon, Willis and Donier are powerful, they will be weakened by only one-fifth of their strength. And the other party is not native, they are all pirates with artillery and muskets. Even when the bone dragon was alive, it is hard to say that it is bound to win..." The book demon retorted.
The three were deadlocked, and Green Wing interrupted: "I have a compromise. Our big ship will run first. Let the armored dragonfly and bone dragon wood guise, and Neil Willis to intercept the group of pirates. Even if you can't beat it, you can always run away. Even if the Ark needs support, it can only support remotely and can get out of the battle at any time. In this way, you can also see the combat effectiveness of the other party!"
Zhang Fan applauded and smiled, "That's a good idea. I think that's it. Let these pirates see how powerful we are!"
Aken also felt that the Green Wing plan was safer, so he nodded and agreed, "Well, we will definitely teach this group of pirates an unforgettable lesson!"
So he began to arrange the attack echelon and drive the iron armor by himself. Now he uses the 'Faith Storm' long-range sniper in the distance to see the defense of the largest pirate ship. I hope it won't be solved with one shot. Then the 'skyfire' wooden owl driven by Bone Dragon and Xuanyuan Star attacked from the air to see if the opponent had anti-aircraft capability. And cover Willis and Donier to raid on the opponent's ship to see the melee strength of the pirates. Zhang Fan's book demon left the Ark with green wings and dark cherry.
However, after listening to Akan's arrangement, Green Wing Dark Sakura also strongly requested to participate in the war. Aken couldn't resist them. He originally wanted to retain some strength, but it seemed unnecessary. If you are sure that you are really not the opponent of this group of pirates, then simply go to the hidden port to take the Ark. After transforming the Galen ship, find an opportunity to slip away and let this group of pirates busy in vain.
Just as Zhang Fan's fleet was discussing countermeasures, on the flagship of the 'Blood Lion' pirate, a scar-faced officer looked at the situation ahead with a monocular and said to the burly man around him with an open chest, "The other party found us. It seems that they are going to escape."
The burly blonde man was picking his teeth with the iron hook on his right wrist. Listening to the scar face report, he didn't care about slapping the scar face on the shoulder with his fan-sized left hand and almost knocked him down.
