Chapter 028. The rendezvous of the merchant ships
"Roarβ"
The voice was violent and high-pitched, and the white flames all over his body had turned into small fragments and dissipated behind him, and this burly knight was like a human cannon being fired, with the rapidly dissipating fragments of light behind him, and jumped over a distance of more than thirty meters, just under the stunned eyes of Li Wei and the sailors, it smashed heavily on the deck in the center of the warship like a cannonball, making a loud "bang".

The burly body was half-kneeling on the deck, and the inertia brought by the violent impact from thirty meters away had even broken the deck wood under his feet. At this time, the surrounding Spanish sailors came back to their senses, and with a few angry orders from Captain Hall, they all ran to the inside of the ship, raised the flintlock pistol in their hands, and aimed the muzzle of the black hole at the half-kneeling figure, and at the same time shouted loudly: "You have been surrounded, now raise your hands!" β
"Hands up? Is this making me surrender? β
The burly body seemed to regain some strength, and the half-kneeling figure slowly rose to its feet, as it pulled its feet out of the shattered deck. But he was only these movements, the previous outburst made him drain all his energy, looking up at the flintlock pistol on the shoulder of the sailor around him, his eyes couldn't help but be a little surprised, his eyes looked at Levi, who was still standing on the bow of the ship, and exhaled: "That damn Ketuf River garbage didn't let me surrender, let alone my own people?" β
"Your own people?" Levi on the bow floor didn't have any expression, just quietly looked at this burly figure covered in blood, and already recognized that it was the knight who led the team before. Listening to his obviously relaxed tone, a smile appeared on the corner of Levi's mouth, and he waved his hand at the Spanish sailors next to him, and looked at this staggering burly figure who seemed to have exhausted his strength and couldn't stand steadily: "So, I don't know what you call it, Lord Knight?" β
Knights from the inner city of Grey Mist definitely have knighthoods or gentlemanly titles, and for Levi, a class that is just an ordinary commoner, the title should not only use honorifics, but also bend over to show their respect and humility when necessary or on festivals. Although Levi sneered at this concept of class when he came to this world, he would never be a rising bird to promote any idea of equality, but slowly walked down the bow of the ship and said softly: "I'm glad you survived, if necessary, my ship can provide some food and water." β
"If I could, I would need treatment."
The burly knight's brow furrowed, and there were already many knife marks and tears on his originally fine chain mail, even the cloak that originally reached his legs was still hanging behind him. But the burly knight didn't care, he reached out and took off the tether of his cloak and the chain mail on his body and threw them aside, looking at the sailors around him who were still jealous and wary of him, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly at Levi: "I'm Charleson, Baron of Grey Mist City, and I will give you a reward for saving me." β
"Baron?" Levi's face couldn't help but be stunned, although he knew that the knight in front of him was definitely a nobleman, but he didn't expect it to be a baron with a real title. He also walked down the stairs down the bow of the ship, and at the same time shouted at the Spanish sailors around him, who were still holding flintlock muskets: "Put down the muskets in your hands, this is our Lord Baron of Grey Mist, not those damned thieves of the Kertuf!" β
After hearing Levi's order, the sailors who had surrounded the Baron Charleson with flintlock pistols simply put away their flintlock pistols and returned to their posts. However, the sailors on the ship also looked at him vigilantly, which made Baron Charleson can't help but shake his head, looked at Levi who walked down and said: "Did you rob those grumpy dwarves, otherwise how could there be so many dwarven muskets?" β
"Who doesn't have a little secret, dear Baron Charleson."
Levi shrugged his shoulders slightly, smiled and erased Baron Charleson's question, this is his secret after all, how can he directly tell the truth to this person who has just come into contact? And he turned his head to look in the direction of the beach, and a reckless scolding was faintly coming from the sound of the waves slapping the sea, especially looking at the outer harbor wall that was already smoking, and couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and said: "It seems that the outer harbor of Gray Mist City is going to suffer huge losses today." β
"yes." Baron Charleson squinted slightly, he also realized that his inquiry was inappropriate, and smiled and said nothing. But he looked at the direction of the city wall where smoke had risen, but his brows couldn't help but furrow, his chest rose and fell violently, and he slowly gritted his teeth and said, "It seems that after the news of the governor's serious illness came out, someone really began to prepare. After a pause, his fists crunched as he clenched, and snorted heavily, "Damn it! β
This was a sudden attack, using the news of the total annihilation of the Samar City River Patrol Team as a cover, and carried out a sneak attack on the outer harbor of Grey Mist City with an absolute main force. This proved to be extremely effective, and now the walls of the outer harbor had completely fallen, and at least three or four hundred thieves from the Ketuf River had rushed into the outer harbor, and the shouts and cries were so clear that even Levi on the sea could hear them clearly.
A large number of water thieves have completely occupied the walls of the outer harbor, and the soldiers of the city defense team who were still resisting have long since disappeared. Black smoke filled the city walls, and the half-wooden, half-stone walls didn't know how to ignite, and even the black smoke and fire began to spread throughout the city walls. This was indeed a miserable raid battle, and the unprepared Gray Mist City was directly breached by the walls of the Outer Harbor, allowing itself to pile up a large number of goods and foreign merchants in the Outer Harbor area, naked in front of the vicious and brutal Ketufu River water thieves.
The richest place in Grey Mist City is undoubtedly the inner city, but the ten-meter-high walls and arrow towers are a huge protection even during the war years, not to mention the Governor's Castle, which was built as a war fortress? However, although most of the merchants in the outer harbor, which was the distribution center of a large number of goods, were civilians and poor people, the merchants near the wharf warehouses were also fat and oily lambs, and as long as they conquered the past and plundered, they could find many coveted booty.
"I have to say that First Officer Green is still very trustworthy."
Levi took a few quick steps, and on the starboard side of the heavy Canadian warship, a merchant ship sailing in the wind was splitting the waves and moving quickly. Li Wei stretched out the telescopic binoculars in his hand and looked at the first mate Green who was standing on the bow of the ship with a solemn expression, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bring a smile. He stretched out his hand and waved in the direction of the Nadvo merchant ship, and at the same time commanded Captain Hall, "Hall, meet Green's ship!" β
"Understood!" Captain Hall, who was also commanding on the bow floor, nodded immediately, and at the same time, the heavy Canadian warship also began to quickly turn the bow, because it was a relatively old oared sailing ship, so turning the bow only needed one side of the slurry to row quickly, and it could quickly turn with a degree of agility far beyond that of a sailboat. The captains of both ships, both experienced veterans, docked the bow of the ship with the bow of the ship almost as soon as the sailors on board reminded them.
As a sailing merchant ship, the Devo merchant ship was still faintly higher than the heavy Galie warship, and those Ottoman sailors also quickly followed the side of the ship, and with the help of the sailors on board, they also returned to the Devo merchant ship. However, the first mate Green jumped over the side of the ship and jumped onto the deck of the Garry warship, looked up at Captain Hall, smiled and nodded to show his kindness, and then looked up at Levi, and said with an ugly face: "The outer harbor is finished, a group of water thieves rushed to the dock, ransacked it, and then burned down the entire dock area and warehouse area. β
"Damn, didn't the infantry of the city defense resist?"
Baron Charleson next to him swung his fist heavily, but this action involved the wound on his body, so that he couldn't help but bend down and cough heavily, and even blood appeared at the corner of his mouth. However, the trained Baron Charleson didn't care, just wiped it casually with his hand, then looked up at First Officer Green and frowned: "I remember that the Outer Harbor City Defense Team is in the dock area and warehouse area, and there is an infantry of two hundred people stationed there. β
"Who knows, maybe they're still sleeping." Glancing at the excited Baron Charleson, although First Officer Green did not know his identity, seeing Levi's slight shrug of his shoulders, the old captain who had been in the Mediterranean for twenty or thirty years already knew it in his heart. He shook his head slightly, and said to Baron Charleson flatly: "Maybe they are still busy looting the wealth of the warehouse area, after all, it will always be a little embarrassing if the city defense team loots directly on weekdays." β
