Many sailors looked at the two pirate ships in front of them, which were dragging the merchant ship forward with cables, and marveled in disbelief ¡ª¡ª 721 ¡ª¡ª>.
"Could it be that they thought we were in the same group as the ships without flags behind them?" Wei Liya's eyes flashed with an elven color, and she looked back and whispered.
"Maybe that's how they see it!"
Reeves nodded doubtfully, looking at the pirate ship three kilometers ahead and said.
"No matter what, I want to see my cousin, moving forward at full speed." Wei Liya said, looking at the six or seven ships four nautical miles behind, and looking firmly at the merchant ships in front.
Fifteen minutes later, Captain Heiros of the Clipper looked at the battleship Purple Flower, which was still more than 700 meters away from the pirate ship, and said loudly to Lin Fenghan: "Baron, look quickly, the pirate ships have slowed down, and the Purple Flower will soon We are about to get close to them.¡±
"What?"
Lin Fenghan picked up the bamboo tube and looked into the distance, and asked seriously: "How far are we from the pirate ship?"
"Baron, we are now about three nautical miles away from the pirate ship."
"Three nautical miles!"
Lin Fenghan quickly shook his head and said: "It's too far. It will take us about half an hour to catch up with them at this distance, so the purple-haired girl will be in danger."
"Helos, you stay here and lead the fleet. Raise the flag and let the steam engine ship dock next to it. I want to speed up."
"Ah¡ª¡ª721¡ª¡ª>!"
Helos glanced at Lin Fenghan in surprise and said hesitantly: "Baron, will you expose our secret strength if you do this?"
"Such a ship will appear in their eyes sooner or later, it doesn't matter if it appears sooner or later. Furthermore, as long as they have not really seen this kind of thing, they will not believe it at all. If Duke Brant discovers this, then they will be even more Will go and treasure his fleet."
"Also, let all ships hoist the flag of the Cape Watch Merchant Ship!"
Although Lin Fenghan felt a little reluctant to give up, looking at the Purple Flower battleship getting closer and closer to the pirate ship, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes and he nodded firmly.
"All right!"
¡¡
¡°Brothers, look!¡±
"That little bitch is chasing me."
"Wow!"
"I really caught up."
"Isn't she afraid of death?"
"Haha! How could I be willing to kill such a beautiful beauty?"
¡¡
The pirate sailors bared their teeth and claws, holding their swords and shouting, provoking the sailors on the Purple Flower ship behind them.
Pirate co-captain Hiram looked seriously at the seven ships that were getting closer and closer, slowly raising their flags, and said seriously: "Brothers, this purple-haired woman is crazy. The ships behind her are already approaching us. What do you think we should do?"
"These guys are so ignorant. They actually dare to chase your pirate grandpa, what else can they do? Brothers, you guys are so awesome, beat them ¡ª¡ª 721 ¡ª¡ª>!" Romut clenched his fists and shouted.
Hanris looked around seriously and said angrily: "Brothers, we really can't run now. The burden of the merchant ship has greatly slowed down our speed. We can't walk now."
"Why!"
Hiram asked helplessly: "Has Vichys been dealt with?"
"not yet!"
Hanris stretched out his hand helplessly and said: "But our brothers beat them from the first floor to the third floor. They are now resisting in the warehouse. We have killed seven or eight of them now, but we also suffered twenty casualties." Many of them risked their lives for money."
"But their resistance is very tenacious. If we want to break through the third battle, it will take at least half an hour and an hour, and we will have to pay fifty or sixty casualties."
Hiram frowned and looked at the merchant ship being lowered, and sighed softly: "Hey!"
"It seems that under the current situation, we cannot get rid of Vichys without capturing them. In this case, let the brothers prepare their bows and crossbows and have a fight with them, as long as they can teach them a lesson later. , just let them retreat when faced with difficulties.¡±
"Um!"
"Um!"
"I will give you the order right now!"
¡¡
The pirates mobilized after knowing that they could not retreat smoothly, and after the battleship Purple Flower approached.
Hiram and others looked at the approaching warship and shouted: "Launch!"
"Launch!"
"Launch ¡ª¡ª 721 ¡ª¡ª>!"
¡¡
The pirate ship that changed its formation pointed at the Purple Flower battleship 400 meters away. Fifteen or six incendiary bombs and more than 20 spears were fired at the battleship.
"Reef the sail!"
"Reef the sail!"
"Pay attention to putting out fires!"
"Prepare the trebuchet quickly!"
"Archers prepare!"
"Crossbow ready!"
"Prepare incendiary bombs!"
"I'm fighting when I get closer."
¡¡
On the Purple Flower battleship, Reeves pulled Veriya tightly into the cabin. Looking at the incendiary bombs and spears flying outside the window, he said seriously: "Your Highness, don't go out. Their long-range firepower is too powerful. Now Are you sure we still want to approach them?"
"I!"
"ah!"
Suddenly two or three screams sounded from the battleship. Wei Liya turned around and saw a young sailor who was hit by an incendiary bomb and vomited blood and fell to the ground. His clothes were on fire. Another middle-aged sailor was hit by a spear. A piece of his internal organs was broken into pieces and nailed to the wooden board.
Wei Liya looked at the miserable scene outside and stared at the sailors moaning in pain. She no longer had the liveliness before, and stood there with eyes shining brightly at a loss.
"Your Highness!"
Reeves deepened his tone and said seriously: "The deaths of sailors are normal in naval battles. The number of enemy ships is five to ten times ours. If we don't leave the battlefield in time, we will definitely die." are as miserable as they are ¡ª¡ª 721 ¡ª¡ª>."
"I hope their deaths can make you calm down, recognize the truth, and let you learn some truths that must exist in the real world. If you can learn these, then their deaths will also be valuable."
"Me!I" Tears appeared in Wei Liya's eyes. She had never been in such direct contact with war before and saw the ferocity and cruelty of war for the first time. Looking at the dead sailors, she felt too much in her heart. So excited but speechless.
"Your Highness, speak slowly." Reeves said sincerely: "I know you are worried about your cousin, His Highness Vichys, but you also have to think about it. Our battleships cannot defeat the enemy, but we are the only ones here who know how to defeat the enemy." If we, the humans who have received this part of the news, die, then no one will know what happened to you, and there will no longer be any power to save your cousin."
"On the contrary, if we leave, then we can return to a nearby port to take out our identity documents and let the fleets of the nearby kingdoms come to rescue your cousin."
Reeves looked into Veriya's eyes sincerely and said sincerely: "Velia, listen to me! Let's go back!"
"Wellokay!" Wei Liya cried and nodded with a smile.
"Oops!"
¡°The pirates are catching up with us in small boats!¡±
