And even such a humble food is already very rich for the crew on the vast sea. 35xs

Because most of the crew, they ate much worse than that.

For example, it is moldy bread, and bacon is as hard as a stone.

This is because the ship is always full of food, fruits, vegetables, live animals, etc., before setting sail, but after a short time all these animals are slaughtered and all other food is rotting.

Because bread deteriorates quickly, sailors generally eat "ship's biscuits", also known as "hard pins", made of flour, water and salt, which are often infested with weevils and maggots, and sailors have to beat them twice on the table before eating them, and wait for most of the bugs to fall out before putting them in their mouths.

For this reason, many sailors waited until dark to eat, because then they would not be able to see the wriggling maggots in the biscuits, and there were cured meats on the sailors' menu, but the cuts were too hard to swallow even after several hours of immersion.

Later, some sailors developed a peculiar craft on these black, hard pieces of meat – they carved patterns into the meat, polished it and made statues, and the cheese was preserved on board by soaking it in tar, which tasted disgusting.

It is precisely because of this that the food that Ye Feng eats now can be barely eaten, and you can imagine how precious it is.

After eating a full five servings of food, Nightblade burped contentedly, and then he opened the rum bottle and drank it in one gulp.

Although the taste of this rum is not very good, but in this environment, he can't ask for anything.

At this time, just after Nightfeng had eaten and drunk, the Viking warrior Huska finally led the elite pirates out of the cabin at the bottom.

In their hands, they each carried the heads of a few sailors, after all, only the enemy without a head can really be reassured.

Because they didn't know when the battle would end, although Ye Feng could also see it, most of the pirates were not as energetic as they were just now. 35xs

But now he had to get the pirates to cheer themselves up and attack the pirate warship in the west.

Fortunately, because the scene of the night blade vs. the rotten corpse just now deeply shocked the pirates, and the Viking warrior - Huskar was undoubtedly also looking forward to him, so although the pirates were a little reluctant, they finally returned to their posts.

But even so, it took a while for the battleship to reluctantly move under the control of the pirates, and gradually sailed towards the west.

And when the battleship was slowly moving, Ye Feng also suddenly received a series of prompts:

"You have control of this V-class battleship, the Verre."

"Verre"

"35 meters long, 76 meters wide"

"Draught 300 tons"

"Maximum speed: 14 knots per hour (about 18 km/h per section)

"Power: Sail together"

"Firepower: 20 three-pounder guns, one five-pounder gun."

"Because of your successful capture of a Spanish V-class battleship, your reputation in piracy is 1500 points."

"Currently your reputation is 960/6000 for Esteem"

"Main Quest: Rise to the Top."

"Mission Description: Raise your reputation among Pirates of the Caribbean to the level of Honor."

"You've met the requirements to complete the main quest at this point, do you want to complete the quest right now: Coming to the fore, yes/no?"

"If you choose to complete the main quest now, you'll be back in Nightmare Space in five minutes."

The main quest was actually completed like this? Ye Feng was really surprised, he really didn't expect that the one-month time given by the main quest to complete the task, he actually completed it in just one day.

However, although he has met the requirements for completing the main quest at this time, it is of course impossible for him to complete the main quest immediately, after all, according to the explanation, within the time specified in the main quest, the higher the reputation value he gets, the higher the reward for the final completion.

And most importantly, he still has a lot of things to do in the Caribbean world!

For example, go to the sealed sea god - Kolybusso to complete the tasks released by him, and obtain some equipment related to magic and witchcraft, as well as skill scrolls.

as well as posting quests to get exotic creatures in taverns and more!

Therefore, Ye Feng then decisively chose not to complete the main quest for the time being, but although he had already met the requirements for completing the main quest, he was not prepared to give up attacking the pirate warship because of this.

After all, if you sink or capture a warship, you can easily gain 500~~1500 reputation points, and such a good thing is not something that can be encountered anytime and anywhere.

It was also because of this time that the pirates fought a big battle with the Spanish navy, which greatly reduced the reserves of gunpowder and shells for their artillery.

Therefore, it is undoubtedly much easier to attack its warships at this time than it is to encounter them in peacetime.

Then, while Nightfront was waiting for the Verl to sail to the battleship, at this time, the Viking warrior Huska suddenly came over and reported: "Captain, I counted just now, and found that the number of pirates who will be able to participate in the battle will not exceed 30!" ”

"What!" Hearing that the number of pirates who could participate in the battle was less than 30 later, Ye Feng couldn't help but blurt out in surprise: "How can this be, if I'm not mistaken, even if I don't add up those dead pirates, the number of pirates left should be seventy or eighty?" ”

"Uh......" Huskar scratched his head in embarrassment and said with a smile: "Uh! Captain! Although it is true that there are still seventy or eighty pirates left, the problem is that these seventy or eighty pirates are to be published on two warships, after all, even if it is calculated according to the minimum sailing configuration, then at least ten to twenty pirates must be arranged on one battleship to control the ship. ”

"Otherwise, the ship will not be involved in the battle, and even if it can move, it will sail at a slow speed like a turtle."

"Unless we abandon another warship, otherwise, there will definitely be less than 30 pirates who can participate in the battle next, and besides, this is the way I will arrange those pirates who have been slightly injured to the post of controlling the ship, otherwise, the number of pirates who can participate in the battle next may not even be 30!"

Hearing this, Ye Feng decisively vetoed it without thinking about it: "No! We managed to capture the battleship, how could we just abandon it! ”

However, even though he said this, he also knew very well in his heart that if he wanted to capture a pirate warship by relying on these pirates with less than 30 people, then it would be really difficult.

You must know that those who can still survive on the battlefield at this time belong to some capable hard bones, after all, those pirates who have no strength have fallen quickly in the early battle.

And the most important thing is that the pirate warship chosen by Yefeng this time is different from the previous capture of the Viking warrior Huska, you know, Huskar's warship is quite weak, so they are hovering on the periphery of the battlefield.

In addition, the captain of the Albatross, namely Huska, was unconscious due to the shelling, so he was able to successfully capture the Albatross pirate ship with less than twenty pirates.

And now, if he still uses less than 20 pirates to capture the pirate warship at the heart of the battlefield like he did at the beginning, it can really be said to be a very risky act.

Thinking of this, Ye Feng's head couldn't help but have a headache, but now that he was on the verge of being ready to attack, it was impossible for him to say to his subordinates not to attack until now!

The so-called change of order is a very damaging thing to the majesty of the leader!

It's like a modern business, where the boss's change of order makes employees confused, unable to work, and busy cleaning up the mess all day long.

Working in such an enterprise or company is not happy and hopeless, so that the centripetal force and cohesion of the enterprise are gradually lost, employees will lose confidence in the enterprise, employees feel at a loss, work without motivation, no sense of achievement, will feel that there is no future, will consider changing jobs, as a business organizer, is to let the advantages and potential of employees be fully released, rather than inhibited.

The same is true for captains managing pirates!

At this time, just when Yefeng was worried about this matter, his eyes suddenly lit up after seeing the monorail sailing boats scattered on the nearby sea and the pirates who fell into the water and floated with the current on the planks!

Because at this time, a good idea suddenly came to his mind.

Then Yefeng immediately pointed to the scattered pirates floating in the nearby seas and excitedly said to Huskar: "Who said we don't have enough men, huh! Aren't they all our manpower! ”

When Huskar heard this, his eyes lit up, and then he couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Because perhaps for those navies, if there are not enough men, it is impossible to casually replenish those sailors who surrendered or were captured.

However, it is different for pirates, because most of the pirates are not really loyal to the captain, even if they are the nine pirate kings among the pirates, they cannot guarantee that most of the crew members are truly loyal.

Because in the Caribbean, it is very common for pirates to change captains between them, so most pirates don't know what loyalty is.
