Our island owner is always playing dead

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, a black figure was found ahead, and the preliminary judgment should be a ship."

The orderly reports to Sullivan the lookout's latest discovery.

Sullivan came to the deck, stood at the bow of the ship and looked through the binoculars. There was indeed a ship on the sea in the distance.

However, with the opening of the navigation line, more and more ships come and go in this area, so it is not surprising to meet a few ships at sea.

Sullivan ordered the fortune-telling watchtower: "Keep watching, and report to me if you find anything!"

The orderly replied: "Yes! Commander-in-Chief!"

Not long after the lookout received Sullivan's order, he soon discovered that there were several other ships behind the ship, which seemed to be a fleet.

If it is a fleet, the nature is completely different. A fleet may be the navy of another country, it may be a caravan, or it may be a pirate.

The watchmen stared at the sea without daring to blink, hoping to find something that could identify them from those ships.However, he didn't see anything. These ships seemed to be deliberately hiding their identities.

The more so, the watchmen became more vigilant.

After determining how many ships the opponent had, the watchman asked the messenger to report the news to Sullivan.

After Sullivan thought for a while, he sent an order to the watchmen to continue to observe.

After waiting for the opponent's ship to get closer, the watchmen finally saw clearly the identity mark on their ship, which seemed to be a merchant ship of the Witima Empire.

The messenger reported the news to Sullivan, but Sullivan had some doubts in his heart.

The messenger waited for Sullivan's order. After thinking for a while, Sullivan said, "Go ahead and order everyone to prepare for battle!"

Although the messenger felt puzzled, he still ran out quickly to deliver the order.

It is not common for the commander-in-chief to issue an order to prepare for battle. That is, the commander-in-chief discovered that there was a problem with the ship this time, but how did the commander-in-chief find out?What's wrong with these ships?

On the oncoming boat, there was a bald man standing on the bow, and he was also holding up the binoculars and looking towards the distance.

"Head, they came directly towards us, does that mean that they didn't discover our true identity?" His subordinate asked nervously.

The head of the bald pirates slowly put down the binoculars in his hand, and said: "I hope so, but even so, we have to be prepared. If they find out our true identity, they will attack at any time. Their equipment is better than ours. We're much better off."

"You are quite right, Commander."

With such different thoughts, the two sides are getting closer... getting closer...

"Report to the commander-in-chief that the opponent's ship has arrived within our range."

Sullivan held up two fingers and said, "Wait a minute, let's do it again when they get closer."

The orderly replied loudly: "Yes! Commander-in-Chief!"

At this time, the messenger admired Sullivan, and the commander-in-chief was very powerful, and he found out that something was wrong with the other party from the very beginning.

As the ships of both sides got closer and closer, the watchmen finally discovered the other side's flaws.

Although the opponent hangs the flag of the Vitima Empire and the logo of the merchant ship, there is no way to change the design and shape of their ship, and those who have been pirates are very familiar with the special marks of pirate ships.

After the watchman found out the real identity of the other party, he immediately told Sullivan. Sullivan just smiled at the time, and he didn't take these little tricks to heart.

Sullivan put the hat on his face, silently counting down in his heart, tapping his fingers one by one, and finally stopped his fingers and ordered: "Fire!"

The orderly shouted immediately: "Fire!"

At this time, the semaphore soldiers on the main ship waved the red flags in their hands, and the other two ships received orders and began to fire at the oncoming ships.

While firing, the other two ships quickly surrounded the pirate ship on both sides.

When the navy's first shell hit the pirate ship's hull, some of the pirates still hadn't reacted, so why did they suddenly shoot at themselves?Has your identity been exposed?When was it exposed?

The head of the bald pirates managed to hold on to the side of the ship and stand firm, and quickly ordered his subordinates to say: "Fire and fight back! Fight back immediately!"

The pirates who finally came to their senses got ready in a hurry. They pulled out the cannons, loaded the shells, lit the fuses, and started firing at Sullivan's navy.

But the three ships were all out of range of their shots, and they had no effect on the three ships when the shells fell into the ocean.

The head of the bald pirates stood on the deck watching this scene, feeling terrified and angry.

At this time, the subordinates also came to report: "Commander! Our ship has been seriously damaged! The other party has suppressed us with firepower. If this continues, our ship will be sunk!"

The pirate captain had a gloomy face and ignored his subordinate's report. He had already seen everything his subordinate said.

The opponent's ship is a naval warship, and their ship is a pirate ship, and the weapons and equipment of the two sides cannot be compared. It is expected that they will be completely suppressed.

Sullivan's three ships formed a siege, only firing from a distance, not approaching, and did not intend to board the ship to seize the ship. If this continues, all the pirates will only die in the sea.

"Regimental Commander, please order, shall we retreat or surrender?"

At this moment, the captain of the pirates couldn't help but slapped him: "Don't be so fucking rambling, I've already seen it!"

In fact, the captain of the pirates knew that there were indeed only two paths left for him.This time he really kicked the iron board, and it is impossible to get out of the body.And looking at the encirclement they formed, it is not so easy to escape.

Several pirate ships have been almost damaged.Even if they escaped, their hulls were severely damaged, and it is very likely that all the ships would be swallowed by the waves due to a little wind.

But he is not reconciled, this pirate team is his painstaking effort, he joined a small pirate group when he was young, starting from the bottom pirates.Later, he killed the original pirate leader and became the new pirate leader, and then tried his best to expand the pirate group to the current scale. Unexpectedly, all his hard work would be wasted just by throwing a few shells at the other party.

Hearing the sound of gunfire soaring into the sky and the howling of his subordinates, the captain of the pirates gritted his teeth, and then he made up his mind and said, "Hang up the white flag!"

"The other side has hoisted the white flag!" The orderly immediately reported to Sullivan.

After hearing this, Sullivan sighed and said, "It's really embarrassing for me to surrender so early."

The messenger didn't understand. In fact, what Sullivan meant was that now that the opponent had surrendered, he couldn't continue to strike.

It's useless if he wants this broken ship, and he doesn't want these pirates. Pirates know the temperament of pirates best, and they are not so easy to tame.

Even if Heat Island needs labor, these pirates with little ability and no bottom line are not the labor that Heat Island wants. The trouble they bring to Heat Island is probably far greater than the benefits they can bring to Heat Island.

Sullivan stood up, put his hat on, and said, "Let them bring the boat over!"

After the semaphore soldier played the semaphore, the opponent immediately responded.

Sullivan ordered all the artillery fire and soldiers to point their guns at the opponent's ship in case the opponent suddenly launched a last-ditch struggle.

In fact, there are not many such cases. After all, most people are afraid of death, and so are pirates.Although the chances of this happening are not high, you still have to be careful.

However, these pirates did not make the final struggle. For them, the most important thing is to survive first.

The two fleets are getting closer, and the two leaders standing on the deck can see each other more and more clearly.

After seeing the other party clearly, Sullivan couldn't help laughing, and said, "So it's an old acquaintance."

There are only so many active pirates in this area, and even fewer can be called famous, and Sullivan and this bald man happen to be somewhat famous people.

In terms of strength, this bald head is much inferior to Sullivan.But the bald head was not convinced, because Sullivan inherited his father's pirate group, and he worked hard on his own, so the bald head looked down on the second generation of pirates like Sullivan a bit.

Because of this, pirates are people who can't tolerate sand in their eyes. You look down on me, and I look down on you.Therefore, they also had friction at sea, most of the time the bald head was no match for Sullivan.

Now, Sullivan has become the commander-in-chief of the Heat Island Navy, and all the equipment and weapons are much better than many pirates at sea.

Although the pirates sneered a little, saying that even if Sullivan surrendered to the government, he did not choose a better owner, but chose an owner who was too poor to even wear underwear.

But in fact, the pirates were still somewhat envious of Sullivan.

As the situation at sea is becoming more and more tense, pirates have naturally become a thorn in the eyes of governments around the world.

The governments of the world are like lions and leopards on the prairie, and pirates are like those hyenas who specialize in picking up leaks, and sometimes they even compete for the prey of lions and leopards.

In the past, the governments of various countries did not catch pirates very tightly, because the national power of each country was not strong enough. If too much effort was spent on pirates, the strength of the navy might be dragged down, and no one was willing to spend too much capital on it. Suppressing pirates, but allowing other countries to take advantage of it.

Now the competition on the sea is becoming more and more fierce, and more and more pirates have been wiped out. Of course, some pirates will be recruited by the government and turn into government troops.

But no pirate group was as lucky as Sullivan.

After the pirates entered the army, the government army would naturally think that they were still dissidents, and that they were from bad backgrounds, so they would always be suspected and suppressed.

But Sullivan encountered no such problems.He was trusted wholeheartedly by the king of Heat Island, and the king of Heat Island spent a lot of money to equip him with the best warships and weapons. It can be said that all the pirate groups at sea are not worth mentioning when they come to Sullivan.
