Not long after Zhang Heng left Queen Anne's revenge, he heard the gunfire coming from behind.
Charleston's direction is shrouded in a blaze of fire. Zhang Heng knows that Orff and Tiki's Revenge has begun, but the later things have nothing to do with him.
His career on Queen Anne's Revenge has ended. In fact, after tonight, Tiki and his Queen Anne's Revenge disappeared together. It was four years later that Zhang Heng met the latter. That's what he said later.
The 16 people on board had already chosen the helmsman at this time. Billy said to Zhang Heng, "I just had a general look. Now there are about 20 ships moored in the port, including 12 small ships, 8 medium ships and 2 large ships. There are no people on board. They can easily take them."
Charleston is hundreds of kilometers away from Nassau. It's impossible for people to paddle back just by their boats. What's more, they are now in a treasure house. Taking advantage of Queen Anne's revenge to attract all the attention on the shore is the best chance to seize a new car.
"You should have a choice." Zhang Heng looked around. He knew that this would be his team in the future. Owen was right. Now these people on the boat are basically the oldest sailors on Queen Anne's revenge. They have rich experience and excellent skills. What's more, their identities are very clean. They don't belong to Orff or Fraser. However, without Zhang Heng's intervention, they would not have been able to survive In this fight for power, their fate is probably the worst.
Billy and others looked at him, and there was a twinkle of excitement in his eyes. "The Royal Navy also has a frigate here. It's a medium-sized ship. It's equipped with about 30 guns, which is similar to the sea lion we used to ride, but it's more powerful, and it should be faster. With our hands now, we can drive it back to Nassau, as long as we can Recruit more people and we can go to sea. "
Another old pirate also said, "in fact, Queen Anne's revenge is not the most suitable ship for looting. It's too big, and it will inevitably sacrifice part of its speed. Moreover, there are too many sailors on board. If it's just robbing ordinary merchant ships, it won't use so much firepower, and everyone's booty will be very limited, not to mention it's too conspicuous."
Zhang Heng nodded, "it shouldn't be too late. Let's do it now."
A quarter of an hour later, seventeen people climbed up the selected naval frigate along the rope at the stern of the ship. Now there was no sailing mission. There were only ten people in charge of guarding the ship. Zhang Heng didn't embarrass them either. He just subdued them with the fastest speed, tied them up and threw them into the boat he had taken before.
After that, we began to untie the sails and put away the anchors. At this time, the two navy boats on the wharf had just launched into the water and tried to row towards this side. However, they were still a little late.
The sea breeze blows the sails. Zhang Heng stands at the bow of the ship and takes the helm himself. Instead of disturbing Queen Anne's revenge, who is in a fierce battle on one side, he steers his sailboat to the other side and finally quietly sails out of the harbor.
Looking at the port disappearing behind him, the people on board burst into cheers.
"I've just checked that there's enough food and water on board for us. At this speed, we'll be back in Nassau soon." Billy, the helmsman, came up to Zhang Heng. "Captain, there's only one last thing left. Let's give our new ship a name."
Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows. Unconsciously, it has been a year since he entered this round of copies. In this year, he has been trying to integrate into this cruel and beautiful world, eating, sleeping, fighting and learning all kinds of skills with pirates. However, he has not forgotten where his soul comes from, so he thought about it and said, "from now on, this ship will be called The Jackdaw. "
Pirates do not understand the meaning behind the name, but simply think it sounds catchy, so no one raised any objection.
Zhang Heng looked at the stars and said, "now, let's go home."
…………
Annie recently returned to a state of boredom. When Zhang Heng was there, she could have someone to talk with her and listen to her complain about the life of salted fish. As soon as the latter left, she was the only one left in the house.
In the past, she could walk around the island and beat one or two people who didn't open their eyes. But since Zhang Heng promised to take her to sea next time, she also promised someone that she would take care of her fists and stop making trouble everywhere.
Annie has a lot of problems, but her dishonesty is not one of them.
So during this period, she seldom went out and lived like a housemaid.
But even so, there will be trouble.
Annie was sitting on the couch in front of the gate, lazily basking in the sun, but before long, the haunted figure appeared in front of her again.
"How are you thinking about it? We can go to Massachusetts. I have an uncle who grows tobacco there. We can go to him. He will provide me with a stable job, which is enough for us to live a comfortable life in the new world without worrying about the house and food."
Annie raised her eyelids and didn't respond. The man continued, "accept the reality, Annie, you've been here for more than a year. Is there any ship willing to accept you? It's time to give up your unrealistic fantasies. Being a pirate is not a family. You should be glad that I'm not angry about what happened before. My promise is still valid as long as you marry me The previous debt is written off. "Annie rolled her eyes and finally said, "James, do you mean to tell me whose money we spent on the journey from Ireland to Nassau? It's not the silver tableware that I stole from home? As a result, when you get to Nassau, you'll turn against me and have to settle your own accounts. Why don't you settle your previous accounts as well? "
Seeing that the girl with red hair finally had a reaction, Jameston was very happy, but he didn't blush. He said with a strong voice, "we agreed to settle accounts separately as soon as we got off the ship, and you agreed at that time. Even so, I still kept you for half a year. You always said that you would pay me back when you were a pirate, but now it seems impossible."
Annie was enraged by the shamelessness of the goods. It wasn't the first time that such a conversation had happened. In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't beat the red haired girl, James would have been unable to resist it for a long time.
Just as Annie was seriously thinking about whether to break the commandment once and punched the disgusting face in front of her, a kid ran from the field and cried, "Annie, Annie, there's a new pirate ship coming to Nassau. It's a naval warship! Honig, who was in charge of guarding the fort and battery on the island, was shocked! Fortunately, they raised the black flag in time. "
"Well? Another warship? Are people so brave now? " Annie recognized that it was a child king in the street. After being beaten by her for several times, out of the worship of power, the latter worshipped her as the boss. He ran all the way from the dock barefoot, sweating and looking very anxious.
"Their captain asked me to inform their boatswain to assemble at the dock."
"Then you go to inform me. What are you doing here?" Annie doesn't have a good airway.
The kid gasped, "I'm also very strange, but now the name of the island is Annie, and there's a head of fiery red hair. Besides the boss, you seem to have no one else."
"Ha?"
