After the black helmsman left, Hutcheson finally spoke again, "I cannot accept this division. How should I explain it to my crew when I get back to the ship? Tell them that the other two ships have received the same amount of loot. Are we the only ones who get the least amount of loot?"
Black Prince Sam said, "This has nothing to do with the captain's ability. You are the weakest among the three parties. If your crew members are sensible enough, they should also accept this distribution plan."
"Oh, if my crew members were sensible enough, they wouldn't be pirates." Hutcheson wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Please, you two are also captains, you should know how difficult this position is, just I sit alone and I have no objection to this split, but I can't just accept it, otherwise those bastards will think I'm weak and incompetent, and they'll depose me before I even get to the shore."
"I'm afraid we can't make any more concessions." Black Prince Sam said.
"I'm not asking you to give in..." Hutcheson looked around, took two steps, and lowered his voice, "I mean, is there any way to make this matter not as obvious as it seems?"
"Um?"
"I can give up my right of priority and accept the existing allocation plan, but you have to give me a step down so that I can explain to my crew when I go back."
"Do you have any suggestions?"
Hutcheson looked at the Spear of the Goddess in the distance, "How are we going to take it down later?"
"The old rule is to conduct a bombardment first, and then send people to board the ship when the other side surrenders. These guys above are all real men. You should have heard what happened to the Pelican, so we must be prepared for battle, each with some manpower. , I personally prefer to bring twenty people each." Black Prince Sam said,
"Then what if we don't use any manpower?" Hutcheson rubbed his hands, "That way I can get the loot without using any manpower to convince my crew to accept this share."
Black Prince Sam frowned, "You don't plan to participate in the battle, but you want to enjoy the share we get from the battle?"
"Strictly speaking, I don't participate in the battle on the deck. My Winter will cooperate with you in the bombardment. Later, when you take action, I can also be responsible for the surrounding vigilance to prevent others from disturbing you." Hutcheson said, "This It's just a gimmick so that I can use this gimmick to appease my crew. Although the sailors on the Spear of the Goddess are brave, they are not fools. The possibility of them resisting when surrounded by three pirate ships is very small, so after you board the ship The probability of encountering resistance is actually very small, am I right?"
Black Prince Sam looked at Zhang Heng on the other side. Zhang Heng knew that the former had been persuaded, but out of politeness he still asked his opinion first, so he said, "I have no problem."
"Then we will have thirty people from each of our two ships and attack together in a quarter of an hour." Black Prince Sam made the decision, and the other two people had no objections to this.
None of the three parties wanted to drag it out, lest new competitors would appear, so after discussing the distribution plan, Zhang Heng and Hutcheson returned to their respective ships as soon as possible, preparing to command the next battle.
Anne wiped her saber, showing an eagerness to try, but then she heard Zhang Heng say, "This time you stay."
"Huh?" the red-haired girl said dissatisfied, "Why, the opponent's strength should be right when they need me. Didn't you always use the Pelican to warn us to be cautious?"
"I'm not worried about the Spear of the Goddess. The ones sent by the Vader must be elites. Together with us, they are enough to deal with the sailors on the ship." Zhang Heng said, "On the contrary, as soon as we leave the Jackdaw, they will We have become weaker than ever before. Compared with the other two parties, the number of people is our biggest disadvantage. With the Winter's withdrawal, I will take away nearly half of the people when I board the ship. I don't plan to take away all the good people. I will leave them with you. Part of it, if all goes well there won’t even be a fight over there.”
"You are the captain, you have the final say."
A quarter of an hour passed quickly. The Vader took the lead in blowing the attack horn, followed closely by the Winter and the Jackdaw. The three pirate ships sandwiched the Spear of the Goddess from three directions.
The latter was not willing to just let him go and fought back without hesitation.
The captain of the Spear of the Goddess obviously also understood that it was unrealistic to sink three ships at once, so he decided to choose one of them as the key target of the attack, hoping to repel the opponent and make the other two parties frightened. The Vader was the first to be eliminated. Yes, because this ship is the largest and has the thickest armor, it is difficult to deal with at first glance. The battleship of the Jackdaw has a very conspicuous appearance and does not look easy to mess with, so the Spear of the Goddess finally pointed its gun at it. Got it for the Severe Winter.
Hutcheson couldn't help but curse. In this world, people really care about their appearance. He clearly got the least share of the spoils, but he had to withstand the firepower attack of the Spear of the Goddess. However, he was also very cunning and deliberately acted upon seeing this. He slowed down and then personally controlled the Jackdaw to dodge.
He naturally has two skills to become the captain of a ship. He cannot get into this position just by fooling the people below. In fact, his helming skills are very good. He dodged two rounds of attacks from the Spear of the Goddess. For most of the time, Yan Dong only looked a little embarrassed, but in fact it didn't suffer any serious injuries.
With his diversion, the Vader and Jackdaw quickly approached the target. Zhang Heng gave the order to fire first, and then the artillery on the Vader also roared.
Faced with attacks from two ships at the same time, the Spear of the Goddess looked a bit miserable. Everyone on the deck was overwhelmed, but even so, they did not surrender. The people on the ship probably realized that the enemy was powerful this time, and wanted to rely on it as before. It was no longer possible to turn defeat into victory in the boarding battle, so we kept gritting our teeth and holding on.
Unfortunately, in the face of the huge strength gap, this was just a meaningless struggle. Five minutes later, the Goddess Spear had to signal its surrender.
Zhang Heng and the thirty selected people stood on the side of the ship, waiting for the two ships to approach, put down the boat, and finally boarded the whaling ship opposite.
The smell of gunpowder on the deck has not dissipated. While bandaging the wounds of their injured companions, several sailors looked at the group of robbers in front of them with vigilance and unwillingness. Zhang Heng did not rush to check the cargo in the cabin, but waited until Black Prince Sam also boarded the ship and handed over the list of items in his hand.
"We are lucky. The cargo on this ship is more than I expected before. In this way, even if the three families divide it, everyone can get a lot of money." Black Prince Sam said happily, and his words caused the cheers of the pirates behind him. , but in contrast were the hateful looks of the sailors on the Goddess Spear.
