48 Hours a Day

Chapter 180: Defeat Wins

“Captain, what do we do?” The sailors on the Hard Winter are nervous.

Hutchison's divine colour was also very tangled at this moment. Not far away, the Veda had eaten three waves of artillery shelling while turning and attacking before. The hull was severely damaged, obviously already at the end of a strong crossbow. However, instead of finishing it, the opposite side rushed towards this side after turning, creating a jade stone burning stand.

The Cold Raven on the other side also resolved the intruder climbing from the side of the boat, preparing to come and assist the Veda, and Hutchison hesitated repeatedly and eventually gave the order to retreat.

The Cold Raven chased after him, trying to attack the Hard Winter with a bow gun, but they were all dodged by Hutchison's fussy operation.

Annie also wanted to continue to look for the Hard Winter account, but was stopped by Divrena. Although the Cold Raven fire dominated, there were too few crew members on board, leaving more than twenty people. Even the gunmen could not fully exploit their own firepower advantage.

The pursuit was likely to trigger a severe winter counterattack, so the Cold Raven turned the bow after a while. Hutchison looked back at the Cold Raven's head dripping blood. This time, they lost too much money. They wanted to take advantage of the two ships, swallowed the trophy on the Veda and Goddess Spear together, and became famous for the battle and entered the ranks of the top pirates.

But it didn't occur to me that stealing chickens would not corrode rice. Instead, it lost a boat and damaged half of its people.

Perhaps the only consolation is that his Hard Winter was not so traumatized in the battle just now, so he did then move the idea of taking down the Cold Raven to make up for the loss, but the other side did not follow up, so the Hard Winter also had to leave with gray head.

The battle also came and went fast, and although the process in the middle was frantically tortuous, less than twenty minutes had passed since the start of the cannon fire on the Veda in the winter season until the former had fled.

The situation on the Veda was a little more serious than Hutchison had judged, and the water leakage in the bottom compartment was serious. Although the carpenter had been repairing it, the sea water had spread to the paddle pirate's knees, and the black rudder had turned around just to do the job, making it virtually impossible for the Veda to engage in a second round of combat in its current state.

Before leaving the Veda completely, Hard Winter had organized a rush to repair it. All of them, including Eric, the black rudder, had mobilized to find everything they could find to clog the hole in the hull of the boat. Meanwhile, other people pumped the water from the bottom of the boat and worked for half a day to finally control the situation, so that the drainage rate exceeded the water intake rate.

At this time, Sam, the black prince on the Goddess Spear, also took stock of the goods. The Hard Winter Counterwater made the distribution easier, and now the two sides just had to split it half equally.

With a few apologies on his face, he said, "Thank you very much for your help this time. It seems reasonable that I should give you more trophies, but this time the Veda is seriously damaged, I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money to completely repair it. I owe you one this time. ”

Zhang Heng had no objection to the distribution plan, and said, “Captain Sam is too polite. Without the Veda, it would be us who would have been hit. In that case, the counterattack could have been completed and a ship sunk across the street. Only the bandits could probably have done this in this area. ”

Black Prince Sam shrugged his shoulders, and it was really hard to beat the defeat of the Veda at the time, but he didn't shy away from his praise, "Eric commanded the battle very well, he could actually be captain himself, and I told him many times, but he didn't seem interested in it. ”

As the two of them chatted and finished the cargo distribution, Black Prince Sam was probably the best talker of all the top captains in Nassau, and he had an indescribable charm that kept him close, although he himself had always been humble and attributed the strength of the pirates to his men.

But if anybody really thinks that, it's a big mistake. Everyone in the gang can find a replacement. Only Black Prince Sam, the captain, is unique. Without his strong personal charm, he can't bring this gang together at all.

Most powerful people also have a big temper, which is the same old logic. All the pirates looked up and down, and the only one who could impress everyone was Black Prince Sam, a captain who seemed to be loose in every way.

…………

The Cold Raven drove back from afar, and Annie caught several pirates halfway down the road, all belonging to a pirate ship that had previously been sunk by the Veda. After some torture, she finally figured out the whereabouts of the group.

The pirates led by Hutchison had only recently emerged, not originally pirates, but armed looters, but halfway across a merchant ship, flying the British flag, which was theoretically an unassailable object, but after discovering that it was carrying a large quantity of silk, the Hard Winter could not resist temptation to attack the merchant ship, and later, in order to prevent the wind from coming out, killed all its crew, but was eventually betrayed by its own people.

Hutchison got the news ahead of time and fled the port with the rest of the crew. However, they had no clue about the prey and went around the sea for two weeks without a trace. At this point, they met two groups of pirates fighting for a trophy. Hutchison helped one of the pirates to destroy his opponent. Finally, they not only split the trophy, but they also got another pirate ship to thank. Yet Hutchison turned around and suddenly wreaked havoc on the latter, killing the unprotected pirate ship and swallowing the trophy.

Hutchison, who tasted sweet, thought black was also a good deal, so he decided to split his hands on the ship he had just captured, recruited a group of newcomers ashore, specializing in one of the most common areas of pirates, while robbing past merchant ships, and attacking the pirate ships that returned full of them.

He was cunning, the two ships split up, not too far apart, conveyed messages through mirror reflections, one wrapped around each other and the other pretended to pass, initially helping the attacked pirates to deal with Ha's own pirate ship together, then turning their faces at critical moments, eventually taking down their opponents without any effort to blow gray.

Hutchison was also trained to hide from shells at that time, and many of the stronger pirates had lost money on their hands. This time Hutchison had just changed the routine slightly, but the core idea had not changed, but he was not dealing with the Veda simply for those trophies.

During this time, Hutchison's piracy business went well, his ambitions began to expand, his money was no longer fully satisfied, and he wanted to spread his name throughout the area. If he could take the famous Veda, he could replace the Black Prince as a well-known pirate.

Unfortunately, this time he kicked to the iron plate, and Captain Sam had already disembarked with some of the elite, and he tricked everyone with his masterful acting skills, successfully finishing the clip on the Veda, which eventually killed one of his boats by the Veda, who had been forced to despair.
