Section 133 Attack and Defense (4)
Charlotte, who had been through the wind and waves, immediately asked the key point: "How many of them are there?" ”
"This ...... There were about one hundred and eighty people who seized the ship," the pirate scratched his head, "I didn't look closely in the town, there were about a few hundred people. ”
"Are those boats still parked there?" Gerald asked.
"Yes, there are a few brothers staring over there!"
"Call all the brothers and go get the ship back first!"
Charlotte murderously ordered that as long as he was at sea, he was not afraid of anyone.
Gerald sighed and reminded Charlotte with a wry smile: "Commander, I'm afraid we can't go anywhere now!" ”
Following Gerald's gaze, the Shining Pirates were all terrified from Charlotte down---- just behind them, and at some point, a large number of undead warriors appeared, staring at them emotionlessly with eyes flashing with soul fire. Bands of undead knights rode gray-white corpse horses, their bayonets pointed straight at the pirate horde, and it seemed that they would rush at any moment.
Directly in front of the pirates, a queue of five hundred brightly armored knights galloped out of the manor, followed by Amazon warriors with spears in their hands and spears on their backs, and a girl in a white dress stood in mid-air with a green sword-shaped beam of light at her feet, looking at them coldly.
"O goddess of life! Which necromancer did we provoke? ”
Charlotte had a feeling of crying, not to mention the combat power of the undead warriors, just fighting them required a very tenacious will to fight...... This is not something that can be represented by the word bravery.
"Gerald, what should we do now?" Charlotte hurriedly asked her high staff.
"What else can I do? Surrender! ”
Gerald smiled bitterly, it was clear that the other party did not intend to kill them all. Otherwise, those undead warriors will be enough to annihilate them.
"Good. Surrender and surrender, I will listen to you for everything. As long as you make sure they don't turn their brothers into undead. Gerald, you promise me, okay? "Charlotte, who usually looks heroic, is no different from a wretched creature at this time.
Gerald's head was full of black lines, and he thought: "Isn't my Gerald and you in the same situation now, where is there any ability to guarantee your life?" ”
However, looking at Charlotte's pleading appearance, Gerald really couldn't refuse. He could only bite the bullet and admit: "Okay, let all the brothers lay down their weapons, and then gather and sit on the ground." ”
"Okay, okay."
Charlotte is now the master of the six gods, and quickly orders the pirates to do what Gerald says.
So, all the pirates obediently threw their weapons on the ground. ^^ starter^^ and sat neatly on the ground, then Gerald tore a white cloth from a man, tied it to a branch, and held it high at the head of the line.
Sure enough, after seeing the pirates raise the white flag, the undead warriors all stopped in place, and only a dozen knights urged forward to accept the surrender.
"Which of you is the leader?"
Guderian's gaze fell on the group of pirates gathered in the middle---- all hugging each other, apparently covering for some important person.
"It's me."
Charlotte is still quite responsible. He pushed away the pirates who stood in his way and came to Guderian, with Jelder following closely behind him.
Charlotte bowed deeply: "I am the leader of the Starlight Pirate Regiment, respected knight, my brothers were forced to go to the sea to be robbers, please let them live!" ”
"Oh, now it's about benevolence and righteousness, when you rob. Have you ever thought about letting those merchants live? Guderian teased.
"The Shining Pirates are in business. In addition to combat casualties, only looting money. Don't rob color, don't rob life! ”
Charlotte said with her head held high.
Guderian sarcastically said, "So, you are a brilliant businessman?" Should I give you a medal? ”
"Humph! You're just a general who has won over the bandits, what's there to be angry about! Charlotte seemed to carry it, and refused to let go.
"Not bad! I really don't have anything to be angry about. ”
Guderian smiled when he saw him so stubborn, and he ordered one of the knights behind him: "Take them all down, and let the healers come and treat the wounded." With that, he was leaving.
"Hey...... Knight, what are you going to do with me...... My brothers? Charlotte asked in a loud voice.
"Your Excellency intends to set up a fleet, and if you join, each of you will receive 2 gold coins per month, and you will be rewarded according to your performance in the future; If you don't want to join, you can choose to leave. Guderian replied.
Charlotte and Gerald glanced at each other, their eyes twinkling.
Recruiting pirates is not a whim of Moonshadow, the Shining Pirates are the most powerful gang in the area, however, they are also relatively benevolent pirates, and collecting protection fees is the first initiative of this pirate, as Charlotte said, they are also morally obedient when raiding.
After learning about Starlight's situation, Moon Shadow decided to lure the enemy deeper, sending people to quickly seize the ship after the pirates abandoned the ship, and then using the undead warriors to counter-encircle, demoralize the pirates, and finally force them to surrender.
What made Moon Shadow most overjoyed was that on the eve of the operation, Loma led a thousand warriors from the Dragon and Beauty Mercenary Regiment to arrive at the same time, which made her even more handy in deployment.
After successfully attracting the main force of the pirate land with the manor, Loma led the mercenaries to capture the pirates' ships and rescue the townspeople who had been held captive by the pirates, and after they signaled their success, Moon Shadow summoned an army of the undead to counter-encircle the pirates, eventually forcing them to surrender---- without skilled sailors, what was the point of having a few ships, the population of Thorntok was not enough.
"Wait!"
Seeing that Guderian was leaving, Charlotte shouted again.
"What's the matter?"
Guderian asked impatiently.
"I can surrender, but I have something to say to my lord." Charlotte said.
Guderian looked Charlotte up and down for a moment, and felt that he could not do any harm to Moon Shadow, so he motioned for a knight to escort him away: "Take him to His Highness." ”
Your Highness?
Charlotte and Gerald were a little confused, could it be that this lord was some princess of the empire?
Damn it! If he still had a knife in his hand, if the eyeliner was still standing in front of him, Charlotte promised that he would use his scimitar to chop the guy into standard firewood.
