Chapter 317: Attack on the Sea (7)
With her hands propped up on her body, Canali leaned on the side of the ship and looked at the four transports behind her, her eyes full of disbelief.
She loved the sea from a very young age...... Just plain like. When I grew up, I realized that in addition to the beautiful side of the incomparably beautiful vast ocean, there are many ugly ones, such as sharks under the water, pirates on the water...... However, she still became a captain without hesitation.
At this moment, her heart was full of depression, although she was grateful to Hathaway for saving her ship and crew, but the lord had detained his ship in the name of secrecy, which made her very dissatisfied. However, in the face of violence, verbal protests pale in waiting.
A whistle sounded in the distance, which lifted her spirits a little, and the captured pirate transports joined up with another fleet and were about to go to Yale Harbor on the Cordillera Heights, and their ships would also pass, and it was estimated that by the time the ships arrived at Yale Harbor, the main fleet would probably have been accomplished—although no one had told her about the fleet's mission, Cannelly believed that if the fleet returned to the Upper Shores, the Iron Skull Pirates would be in serious trouble.
I don't know why, when she guessed the real goal of this fleet, Canelly was faintly excited, and at this moment, she had a faint strange feeling when she was about to sail...... It seems that he doesn't want to leave.
"What are you thinking?"
Suddenly, a soft and gentle voice came from beside her, and the female captain was slightly stunned. But she recognized it immediately, and made a sound. It was the Countess of the Cordillera who forcibly detained her.
In fact, Cannelly did not resent the young earl's actions, but only thought that the other party did not believe in herself, which was a detrimental thing to her self-esteem.
"It turns out to be the Earl, and if you wish, I will leave at once in accordance with your orders." It's one thing to think in her heart, but the tone of her voice is another, and Canelly finds herself at a disagreement, turning around to leave.
Hathaway grabbed her arm. While doing so. She looked a little rude and didn't fit her identity, but the look in her eyes kept the other person from getting angry.
"Captain Cannelly, there are things we may have in common with each other."
Hathaway's words surprised Canelly. She had thought the Count was a spoiled girl. I'm about to lose my temper because of my own disrespect. I didn't expect to say this inexplicable sentence.
"We all love the sea, its vastness, its richness. If there is one calm, peaceful place in the world, it is the sea. Although sometimes storms can wreak havoc on it, the sea is even more beautiful after the rain. ”
Hathaway's words calmed Canelly, apparently speaking to her heart, and even she didn't notice that the expression on her face had begun to soften.
"But those hated pirates and conquest monarchs, who regard the sea as a treasure trove for fame and fortune, are like ugly parasites that make the sea beautiful in our hearts. Captain Cannelly, are you still willing to be the captain of a merchant ship that only escapes? Hathaway stared into Canelly's eyes, leaving her with no one to escape.
Regarding the news of the female captain, Hathaway has already obtained detailed information for the first time. She can be said to be from a family of seafarers, and her father and brother are both excellent sailors. The former was killed in a shipwreck, while the latter was severely maimed in a pirate attack. So she has a deep hatred for pirates, and the Cordillera needs a navy, and it's obviously not enough to be just a Pink Skull.
Cannelli was shocked to hear Hathaway's words, of course she could hear Hathaway's words of solicitation, but ......, "Lord Count, I don't like war, and I don't like killing. ”
Her tone seemed a little weak, very different from what she usually felt.
"Except for a few people, I'm afraid no one likes war, let alone killing."
Hathaway nodded approvingly: "However, someone is trampling our garden, and someone is hurting our loved ones. In this world, it is not possible to rely on a good wish to protect it, it is our responsibility to hold a sword in one hand and a shield in the other. ”
"A sword in one hand and a shield in the other?" Cannelli muttered a repeat.
"Yes. Captain Cannelly, if you figure it out, please come to the Cordillera and I'll be waiting for you at the Lord's Palace, and like-minded friends are welcome to come along. Good bye! ”
Hathaway smiled at her and turned to leave.
Cannelli didn't respond, she was still thinking about Hathaway's words, until a sailor reminded her that it was time to go back to the ship, and Carnelli reacted and hurriedly boarded her own ship.
Although the Pink Skull Pirate Regiment belongs to the Cordillera Leader, with the current situation, it is impossible to directly brand the Cordillera Led Team, and can only be stored in the name of mercenaries...... Of course, this can't be said at this time, and it must be officially announced after the destruction of the Iron Skull Pirates.
The deputy head of the regiment, Rondo, is Arling. Hegel's right-hand man, who had previously led another team of the Pink Skulls cruising the seas, mainly to create an illusion for the Iron Skull pirates, and now that the plan was about to be implemented, he would bring the captured ships back to Yale, while Hathaway and the others were heading straight to Spolonga Island, believing that the Iron Skulls would soon make a move.
……
Sporonga, the headquarters of the Iron Skull Pirates.
When Deputy Commander Rashid led the fleet to the supply base, the atmosphere here was optimistic and positive. Although pirates are accustomed to adventurous lives, they are obviously happy to be able to take a break and live without having to live a life of death...... They are outlaws, but they are not dead soldiers, and the reason why they chose this profession is also to survive better, not to seek death.
According to the example, Rashid should have sent messages back to the island every once in a while after leaving the supply base, informing him of his location and situation...... It used a more old-fashioned method, a bird that could transmit messages over the sea. However, what the pirates did not expect was that the few messengers released by Rashid after leaving the supply base were captured by the special operators patrolling the sky, otherwise it would not be so easy to confirm their location.
Was it the flotilla that fought? Or is there something glitching?
The pirates of the island could only speculate on what happened in the distant sea, praying that no nightmare would befall them.
Kumori was uneasy, but he had to keep his composure in front of his men, especially in the presence of the pirate leaders.
This was due to the fact that the Imperial Navy was about to encircle and suppress the Iron Skull Pirates, and it was the lords of the Cordillera Lords who prompted the Imperial Navy to take this action.
The lord was hateful, but even more hateful were his own cubs, who, in defiance of his orders, had robbed the merchant ships bound for the Cordillera, which was undoubtedly the countess's whiskers...... In fact, after he knew about it, he didn't take it seriously. In Kumori's view, this was not an opportunity to probe the two sides to have an informal meeting.
The imagination is plump, but the reality is skinny. Kumori didn't expect Hathaway to apply directly to the Imperial Military Department for support, and received an immediate response...... Could this countess be the illegitimate daughter of the old emperor?
But now that he was done, he had no choice but to shrink his forces and hide back in his lair, hoping that the Imperial Navy would not be so patient, and at the same time he also stepped up his activities - the Iron Skull Pirates were able to thrive at sea, and they also had their own way, and he believed that even if the Imperial Navy was dispatched, it would be withdrawn quickly.
Kumori was already imagining that after the retreat of the Imperial Navy, if he gave that little lord who didn't know the height of the sky a powerful look, the prestige of the Iron Skull would definitely be piled up with dead people's skulls!
Kumori didn't speak, and the captains under him didn't know how to speak, they all looked at each other, and the atmosphere in the room was unusually dull.
There was a sudden knock at the door, which gave the crowd an excuse to ease, and Kumori shouted to the people outside to come in.
When the door was pushed open, all eyes were on the comer, Julian, the leader of the intelligence gathering.
"Captain, the latest news, the vanguard of the Imperial Navy has just stopped in Vermont Harbor to rest." Julian reported.
"Is there any news from Rashidler?" Kumori asked in a calm tone.
"I'm sorry, Captain, not yet!" Julian replied apprehensively.
"What the hell!"
Kumori muttered, "We need to step up our intelligence-gathering efforts, or those people will be on the doorstep!" ”
He patted the table gently: "Julian, try to get our line from gathering information about the surrounding ports, it's a matter of importance, we don't have to worry too much about the cost." In addition, you don't know exactly what Rashid is doing this time, and are there any powerful navies of other forces around? ”
"As far as I know, there is not a single fleet ......on that route," Callian reported, snoking a glance at the Grime.
I am confident that I will *********** hit the water for 3,000 miles in 200 years***********
