0302 It's time to choose a cemetery

"Perfect performance, Mr. Pedro. After seeing your skills in dealing with pirates, I began to wonder if you had taken advantage of my unpreparedness to send the news of the enemy attack. ”

"How could I fool you, Mr. Drake...... I...... I'm innocent......"

"Don't be afraid, those who uphold justice never want justice to be tarnished, so I never cross the river and tear down the bridge. You need to convince yourself now that you have peace of mind and then laugh. ”

The pirates are gone.

After a simple investigation full of loopholes, the Irian turned around, Leonard stood on the side of the ship with Pedro in the waist, and Lorraine came over to join in the fun, watching Cotton Jack's pirate flag drift farther and farther away.

He gave the order to set sail.

The Three-Eyed Raven slowly activated and turned into the west exit in a grand manner.

The moment the bow cut into the inner sea, Lorraine said to Pedro: "Mr. Pedro, it's time for you to choose a cemetery for yourself." ”

Pedro fell to his knees as soon as his feet went limp.

"Virtue ...... Mr. Drake ......"

"Misunderstood again." Lorraine sighed, "I'm just preparing you for the worst and picking a favorite spot on the ship." I'm not going to kill you. ”

"But...... Cemetery ......"

"Everyone on this ship is ready to die in battle before they get on board, which is determined by the nature of the mission." Lorraine tilted her head and thought for a moment, "In addition, for the sake of your excellent performance just now, although the stern compartment is very comfortable, I recommend that you choose the bottom deck. ”

Pedro eventually followed Lorraine's advice.

He was escorted by sailors and got out of the cabin, looking at the inner decks that had not even been shaved with bark along the way, and couldn't help but recall the experience of being cursed by Satan these days.

That was 28 days ago.

With his son, he had just fulfilled his order for Tampico in his cherished Santander Knight.

It was a wonderful experience, and the nobleman of Tampico had paid him a whole thousand pounds more for a strange piece of gold!

He was fluttering, his heart was in full swing, and he and his son felt God's call as they lay on a boat full of gold coins, and then they decided together to strike while the iron was hot!

Nine days later, they were blocked in the open sea, less than 50 kilometers from Bimini, by three powerful warships flying the Colorful Pupil Skull Flag.

Mixed Sail Skuna was originally a well-balanced merchant ship, and his sailors were far from being as good as Drake's carefully selected elite elite, so after only three kilometers, the Santander knight was easily reined by the Golden Deer.

Lorraine jumped off the deck, carrying a knife and asking Pedro only two words.

"Unlucky sir, are you a merchant ship of the English Chamber of Commerce?"

"If not, do you want to be my friend or die?"

The Knights de Santander was kidnapped to the inhospitable Palm Island.

On the island, his sailors were forced to work with strange pirates, three main jobs.

Chop wood, cut the palm trees on the island, cut out the main trunk from the center, cut it to the right length, glue it to the inside of the hull, and do everything you can to strengthen it.

Boiling glue, everything that can be boiled into glue is gathered into one piece and boiled day and night, and the Golden Deer also made a trip to Bermuda, from where it bought a full cabin of gum and iron sheets, and brushed it layer by layer under the waterline and in the watertight cabin.

Braided ropes, large quantities of straw ropes and sacks, filled with sand and gravel and transported into the holds, piled up in the holds.

In addition to this, Pedro also knew that more than a hundred pirates under the leadership of that Lorraine had made a strange kind of deck armor, which was polyhedral in appearance, with thick wooden brackets and card slots, and iron sheets on the surface, as if it were going to be a big battle.

The whole meaningless and purposeless work lasted 17 days before it came to an end.

On the 18th day, his sailors were asked to build five crosses independently, and after the crosses were erected, five sailors who had been missing for many days were brought up with their faces covered.

Lorraine told them that the five men had tried to snatch the assault boat and escaped, and had wounded a pirate. Because they did something that didn't fit their friendhood, they needed to be hanged.

Then they were hanged.

Silent Pedro and his son were summoned by Lorraine after watching the execution, and Lorraine asked his son to lead the sailors to erect crosses on the island, and asked Pedro to fulfill his friend's obligation, which he had just done, so that Brigentine, who appeared to be unscathed and had actually been converted into a sea fortress, disguised as a new ship of Pedro's merchant group, and infiltrated the safe haven of Bimini.

It's just that Pedro can't figure it out, a sea fortress sneaks into a safe haven...... What can you do?

……

The Three-Eyed Raven glided unhindered into the mouth of the bay with a poise that a Bermuda ship would never have.

Lorraine stood on the side of the ship and saluted the pirates leading the way on the reef at the mouth of the bay, and commanded in a loud voice: "The right rudder is full!" Sailing, horizontally! ”

His command came clearly into the pilot's ears, and the pilot watched blankly as the three-eyed crow twisted the bow of the ship in a daze, and then heard a strange sound of breaking through the air.

Burst! Burst!

Two crossbow arrows scrambled to pierce his chest, and the poison applied to the arrows quickly took effect, crawling down the blood all over his body.

The pilot fell to his knees and stretched out his hands until the moment he stopped breathing, still not understanding why the Brigentine's draft was so deep and why it was lying horizontally at the mouth of the bay......

"Arrive at the middle line of the bay!"

"Anchor! Put the assault boat! ”

The anchor chain and the boat chain were lowered at the same time, and they plunged into the soft sand, holding the three-eyed crow in the very center of the bay's mouth.

The two assault boats also roared into the water, slamming into the water, the waves soaking the high canvas of the boats.

Twenty sailors, who had been ready, jumped off the side of the ship, swam to the side of the boat as fast as they could, dragging the cables and swimming hard, one forward, one backward.

The two boats were quickly towed to the designated position, which was still the center line, the center line between the bow and the North Island, and the center line between the stern and the bay mouth reef.

"Shipwreck!"

The starter shouted aboard the Three-Eyed Raven, and the sailors immediately swam into the water, drawing their chisels and chiseling the corks at the bottom of the boat.

The assault boat laden with sand and gravel sank rapidly, and the sea water did not pass the freeboard, nor did it pass the sandbags, and in a moment only a dome more than a meter wide was still covered with canvas.

The mouth of the bay was completely blocked.

It was originally only 60 meters wide, and the 30-meter-long Three-Eyed Raven took up half of the pestle in the center, and the two dinghys of 5 meters long were divided on the left and right, and the whole bay was left with only four narrow passages each 5 meters wide.

Lorraine looked at the two man-made reefs with satisfaction, and when the sailors began to swim back, he nodded gently to Leonard.

Leonard's old face turned red: "Cut off the sail cable!" Drop the sails, abandon the sails! ”

"The people in the bay will soon notice something different! If you don't want to die, gentlemen, set up the fortified artillery plates, and do everything as soon as possible! ”

"Run! Carry the sandbags up the deck against the back of the gun protection board, the more the better! ”

"Muskets! The musketeers are ready to fight! Deck ready for battle! Prepare for battle in the cabin! Boatmen are concentrated in the bilge! ”

"Cut off the rudder, cut the cable network! If you have the spare time, go and help assemble the anti-gun board! ”

"Don't forget that we need to hold out until the Golden Deer arrives! Hold on like a turtle until the Golden Deer arrives! Don't stop praying! ”

"God bless us!"

"Please God bless us!"
