Chapter 125

Scarborough just a symbolic shot, not far from the French merchant ship obediently slowed down to stop.

Elmer's mood finally improved when he saw that he knew each other so well. He sat back on the deck table and tied his napkin.

The chief officer commanded the Scarborough to the side of the sea lion, and the officer's alternate who spoke before couldn't help saying, "Sir, we should keep the Gunners on standby and send someone to check the situation first."

The chief officer's eyebrows also wrinkled. He is not a rookie who has never been out of the sea. Of course, he knows what to do. No one likes to be taught by a subordinate who points his nose all the time. In fact, if it wasn't for Burnett's family background, he would have been angry for a long time. There's no reason why he was pushed out by his colleagues before.

Sometimes it's a good thing, but because of the wrong way of doing things, it will be disgusting.

"Do your part, Burnett." The chief officer warned that he really wanted to order the Gunners to stand by, but it was as painful as eating a rat excrement. However, after serving in the Navy for so many years, his reason finally overcame his emotion and issued the order in an orderly way according to the original plan.

Burnett stood aside, and though he didn't speak, he looked up as if he had just won a big war.

The chief mate had the idea to cut the goods. Fortunately, the first group of 24 people had already boarded the French merchant ship opposite, and finally diverted his attention.

The captain opposite was a French man with curly hair. He stood on the deck with his sailors in embarrassment. He obviously knew what it meant to meet the Scarborough.

However, in the face of overwhelming fire, even if the heart is not willing, can only honestly hand over the ship's cargo list.

The team leader pointed the gun at the surrendering people on the deck, and then sent several of his men down to the warehouse for inspection. A moment later, Zhang Heng and Malvern in the kitchen were also taken up.

The latter's legs were trembling all the time, especially when he saw the huge warship, the dense gun barrels and the black shadow on it.

His appearance amused the group of English sailors on the deck. Some whistled and others grinned, but one of them frowned and stood out in the crowd.

"Lanny, what's the matter?"

"I don't know. I just think that guy looks familiar, but I can't remember where I met him." A sailor named Lanny.

"I found out when you said that." The other echoed.

The atmosphere on the deck became tense in vain, but then the man said, "he looks a little like your wife, oh Poor little Lanny, I can't wait to come out and get some air. Maybe our fat friend doesn't mind

"Fuck you, Stephen!"

After the interruption, the ship returned to the previous relaxed and happy state. This mission was very relaxed, and most people didn't pay much attention to it. After a while, the people who went to search came back one after another.

"No problem, it's all porcelain, and it looks good. Big guy can make a good profit this time!"

All the English sailors looked happy when they heard the words.

The leader nodded, "watch these people. I'll report to the chief officer and the captain."

Then he returned to the Scarborough with the list, and after a while the sailors on the Scarborough began to mobilize.

In order to facilitate the transportation of the cargo back to the merchant ship, the first mate ordered more gangways to be laid. At the same time, about 60 new sailors put down their weapons and released their hands to carry the porcelain on the sea lion.

Listening to the sound of footsteps overhead, the pirates in the interlayer could not help but swallow their saliva, saying that so far, the plan is even more smooth than they thought, and has been completed most of the time. The sea lion and Scarborough have successfully joined the ship. Next, as long as the group of unarmed British sailors board the Shanghai lion, they can launch an attack.

However, at such a time, everyone is more nervous, for fear that a person on the deck will find the secret at his feet, which will fall short of success.

Only one of them is an exception. He sits in a corner, his eyes closed, as if he is asleep. His huge body is like a mountain in the dark. His black beard rises and falls with his breath. It is clear that the space in the interlayer is very narrow, and people are crowded together. However, there is no one around him within a step, and most of the people who choose to become pirates are rebellious Unruly people, however, when they share a room with him, they are all clever like kittens.

The eyes that looked at him were in awe, as if they were looking at a demon.

It's clear that the plan to attack Scarborough is very dangerous. Even if Orff's plan is ahead, the victory is only fifty-five. However, the majority of the people who voted for it in the end. In addition to the temptation of money and treasure, maybe the man in front of us also accounts for a large part of the reason.

There is only another fear that can resist fear.…………

The sailors on the Scarborough jumped the Shanghai lion one by one and got into the warehouse in high spirits. The spirit of the people who were in charge of guarding Zhang Heng on the deck was also relaxed. Only the man named Lanny was still staring at Malvern, thinking hard.

The farmer's son was also very confused. He didn't know anyone in the new world except his father. He was caught by pirates on the way. He was sure that he never knew the guy on the opposite side, and he didn't know why the sailors on the Scarborough would stare at him. Malvern even couldn't help wondering if he really looked like him Fang's wife?

Just when some English sailors got together and talked about getting the money to go there happily, the guy named Lanny suddenly changed his face and yelled, "I see. They are pirates!"

As he spoke, he raised his musket as fast as he could and aimed it at Malvern, looking nervous.

The latter was so frightened that he didn't know where he was showing his horse's feet. In fact, it was not only him, but also Lanny's companions. They didn't raise their weapons at the first time. Instead, they asked the latter, "what's the matter with you?"

Lanny quickly said, "I remember where I met him. I saw his portrait in the harbor! About ten months ago, a merchant ship was robbed by pirates. The pirates killed the captain of the ship and many sailors on it, and only gave the remaining passengers a small boat, a bucket of water and a little food. But those people were rescued by passing ships later. They said that four people on the ship had joined the pirates, among them was the fat man. His characteristics were the most obvious, so I remember the most Clearly, oh yes, the group said that there was another Oriental, who should be the one beside him. "
