Chapter 188: Massacre
It was late at night when the Skeleton arrived in Nassau, and after a series of events, by the time it returned to the ship, most of the sailors were exhausted and sleepy.
Because it was in the port, there was no need to arrange a person in charge of the night patrol, but after the previous sneak attack on the Jackdaw, Wilton did not take it lightly, and specially set out four teams to take turns monitoring the Jackdaw not far away with binoculars, and once there was movement on the opposite side, he could know immediately.
Wilton then shut himself up in the captain's room and drank a sullen drink, while he remembered what had happened on the beach, drew the knife from his waist and slammed it into the wooden table.
He had already changed his mind and decided to catch the guy named Zhang Heng later, and he was not in a hurry to kill the other party, but to let the latter try his methods until he regretted that he was born in this world.
By the time Wilton had drunk the sixth drink, most of the sailors on the Skull had fallen asleep, unaware of the danger looming over them.
Zhang Heng glanced at the time, stood up, and nodded at Anne on the side, "It's time, let's do it." ”
After saying that, he hid his pocket watch and musket under a rock, and walked into the water first, followed by the red-haired girl, and the crew of the Jackdaw had already changed into uniform black clothes, biting the dagger with their teeth, and quietly swam towards the skeleton not far away.
Speaking of which, this is still the inspiration that Zhang Heng got from Hutchison, who used this method when he attacked the Jackdaw before, although he failed to take the Jackdaw, but the twenty people who boarded the ship also completed Hutchison's tactical intentions and dragged Anne and others on the ship.
If it weren't for the early detection by the sailors on the lookout, it was even possible to cause even more casualties.
And this time Zhang Heng led the team, the situation was very different from before, when Hutchison launched an underwater raid, it was during the day, and it was in battle, the sailors of the Jackdaw were basically fully armed, and the night was more conducive to the attacking side to hide their figures, and at the same time, most of the sailors on the Skull were sleeping, and there were only a few people on guard, almost without any defense.
No one thought that the two sides had just clashed a few hours ago, and Zhang Heng would choose to make a move so quickly.
And tonight his preparations were also more sufficient, everyone gave up the firearms that would bring great movements, and used daggers as the main weapon, only brought a few grenades in case of accidents, in addition to Zhang Heng also picked a hunting bow from the collection of the weapon merchant Barr to bring on his body.
He and Anne were the first to climb the Skull.
Zhang Heng lowered his body, found a corner and opened the oilcloth bag on his back first, and took out the hunting bow and arrows inside, while Anne was observing the distribution of people on the deck.
Wilton arranged for a group of three people to monitor the Jackdaw, one of them was on the lookout, one was in the bow, and one was on patrol, and the red-haired girl hid behind the rudder, silently counting the footsteps outside, and when she counted to seven, she dodged out and slit the throat of the stunned pirate in front of her, and then did not stop, and touched the back of another pirate at the bow, who was dozing off, not noticing that she was approaching.
But at this time, the pirate on the lookout finally discovered the danger, but he didn't have time to raise the alarm when Zhang Heng shot him in the heart with an arrow, and at the same time, Anne also cleanly eliminated the last person.
At this point, all the threats on the deck were contacted, Zhang Heng returned to the side of the ship, and gestured for the forty crew members of the Jackdaw to board the ship in turn, and then everyone touched the sailor's cabin as quickly as possible.
This time, Zhang Heng's order was very simple, that is, to kill all the living creatures in front of him.
In the Skull's sailors' cabin, a bloody slaughter is taking place, and the Jackdaw's sailors work in pairs, one covering their target's mouth and the other slitting their throat, starting from one side of the room until they reach the other, in a way that ensures that no one is missed.
Soon, the strong smell of blood wafted through the room, and the time Zhang Heng picked was the time of the day when people slept the deadliest, and the sailors on the Skull were immersed in sleep, ignorant of what was happening around them.
But with so many people acting together, it is impossible not to have no surprises.
Three minutes later, a group of men cut too shallowly to kill their target, triggering a violent struggle that woke up more people, but by this time the situation was decided, and two-thirds of the pirates in the sailor's cabin had been turned into corpses.
The rest of the men had just woken up from their hammocks before they could draw their weapons before they were stabbed in the heart, and only a dozen pirates managed to get their hands on their weapons and began to resist, but it was too late.
The plan went even more smoothly than expected, the whole killing lasted less than a quarter of an hour, Zhang Heng and the others killed more than a hundred enemies, and the people who started in the back were already numb, no one went to count the specific numbers, and the grenade in his arms was not used.
However, when Zhang Heng pushed open the door of the captain's room, he found that there was no one inside, only the porthole was open, Zhang Heng took a quick look, and saw Wilton who was struggling to swim towards another ship below.
So Zhang Heng pulled out a feather arrow from behind him, put it on the bowstring, and then let go of his fingers.
With a whooshing sound, Wilton's shoulder hurt, but he knew that he had reached the moment of life and death, and he didn't dare to turn back, but he swam faster, and at the same time took a deep breath, and a fierce man plunged into the water, Zhang Heng's second arrow lost its target, and frowned.
Tonight's goal can only be regarded as half accomplished, although the pirates on Wilton's flagship Skull are basically dead, but there are still about sixty people on the other ship, if Wilton escapes to it, then he can not only escape from Nassau smoothly, but may even turn defeat into victory, after all, there is no one left on the Jackdaw now, if Wilton takes advantage of this time to fire desperately, Zhang Heng They will not have time to rush back.
Therefore, Zhang Heng did not hesitate this time, and directly replaced it with [Paris Arrow], this prop is worth more than 400 points, he was worried that if he shot out and was taken away by the tide, he would lose a lot if he couldn't find it, but now he didn't have time to think about this kind of thing.
The next time Wilton emerged from the water to breathe, Zhang Heng shot this arrow from Greek mythology, because the time in the middle was too short, he just roughly aimed at Wilton's body, fortunately, [Paris's Arrow] has its own weakness locking effect, Zhang Heng saw that the arrow of the arrow did not enter the water, and after a while, he saw Wilton's body floating up from below.
