The setting sun was like blood. Hundreds of pirates retreated in embarrassment near the small town of Green Island. The militiamen on the city wall packed up the dead bodies. There was a pile of foul-smelling dead bodies outside.

At this time, Liu Peng was on his way by boat, and hundreds of pirate ships appeared one after another in the waters outside the port. Looking at the terrifying number, Bob knew that he was going to be doomed, let alone him, the residents of the town also fell into despair.

Originally, these days were pretty good. On the one hand, powerful archers like them were sitting in the town, and the town was in a terrain that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Apart from leaving more than 100 corpses behind, it was difficult for these thousands of pirates to touch their territory. core.

However, they did not have the ability to expel the pirates, so they could only forcefully consume them until they could no longer retreat.

They have been doing this for thousands of years, and there have been no special exceptions. After all, their island has a larger area and more arable land, so there is nothing worthy of pirates' concern.

Far away from the traditional shipping lanes, they have no way to make a fortune from trading merchant ships. At most, they can earn some extra money during the monsoon period.

But today's group of pirates is obviously different. With so many ships, there may be thousands, or even tens of thousands of pirates. If they take turns attacking towns, they may not be able to keep up with the food shortage.

Bob and the others were worried, and Hua En was not much better. He lost the army and failed to take down the town. It can be said that he has no face to face the pirate captain Mosang now, but he can’t do it if he doesn’t go, so he has to bite the bullet and board Mosang’s on the flagship.

All the generals gathered on Redbeard's flagship, and those famous pirates watched Hua En come in jokingly, until he knelt in front of Mosang on one knee.

Seeing the dejected appearance of the high-spirited pirate before departure, Mosang didn't explode into a thunderous anger. After taking a sip of the red wine, he quietly asked, "Hua En?"

"Leader, I failed your trust by not taking this island." Hua En lowered his head, not daring to look into Mo Sang's eyes.

The beard around Mosang's mouth was slightly upturned, and he didn't seem to be in a bad mood: "This is what I expected. It's not a year or two for Green Island to be in the West Sea. Why hasn't it been taken over by pirates? Are people hungry for this place?"

What the red beard said was to excuse Hua En, and a sensible person immediately echoed:
"Yes, yes, I have been to Green Island several times. The city wall is built on the edge of the cliff, leaving only one side facing the sea. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is more difficult to take more than 1000 people."

"I have also dealt with people in Green Island. They are indeed a bunch of tough guys, and their strength is no worse than ours."

"I was chased by them for a while last time, just because I cut off their target..."

There are also some ignorant ones who jumped out and demanded to punish Hua En:
"Leader, it was Hua En himself who requested to take the lead in the battle. Now that he has not achieved his goal, he should be punished!"

"Originally, we were the laughing stock of others because of Hortagus, but now we have a bad start, and Huaen nobles will bear the consequences!"

Mosang the Red Beard waved his hand to interrupt those who were still talking, and decided to die on the matter: "This is not Hua En's problem. I didn't intend to eat Green Island in one go. I have to help the land from time to time. For a moment, I don't have the energy, don't forget that our purpose is to surround that Sinian man, Liu Peng!"

At this time, Liu Peng was still on his way, passing through the windless belt of the West Sea.

They had already said that, so they naturally had nothing to say. Just at this moment, a sailor ran in and said, "Commander, there are three ships appearing diagonally across from them. They look like Cathay people."

"Hua En."

When Hua En heard Mo Sang calling his name, he quickly raised his head: "Head?"

"Intercept them, if it's that Cathayman, catch him in front of me." Mo Sang said lightly.

"Yes!"

After Hua En received the order, he immediately returned to his ship and greeted his subordinates with semaphore. The four ships immediately came over, formed a long snake with him, and rushed towards the three large ships that had just appeared.

As the commander-in-chief, Hei Yao saw the five rushing ships, briefly judged their momentum, and let the other two ships follow him to the port.

This is a gesture of avoidance.

Seeing that the opponent actually chose to avoid the battle, Hua En said with disdain: "I thought it was some kind of brash who dared to charge directly towards our prey, even in a continuous battle. Let's go directly to the port to block them."

The five pirate ships changed direction and drove towards the port like them.

Hei Yao didn't care about their unrelenting attitude, he asked Brand to drive the "Fairy" to the town to disembark first, contact No. [-] and them, and he and the "Wolf" blocked the incoming pirate ship together.

The "Fairy" is a large three-deck ship, and now it has less than 100 people on board, and it would not be a problem to pack another 100 people, so after docking on the shore, Brand ran directly to the town with the people.

"Who are you?" The guard who guarded the door dared not open the door.

"He's here to save people." Brand's words were succinct, leading them to think that this was to support Green Island, and the garrison quickly told Bob about it.

Hearing that there were three ships coming from outside, the leader said they were here to save people, and smiled: "What save people, they are here to escape, probably because they were forced by the red beard fleet to have nowhere to run."

"Then what should we do, my lord?" the guard asked.

"Let them in." Bob rubbed his temples. After all, he would have to face repeated attacks from pirates in the future. It would be good to have more people.

Bob led his people to the city facing the port. When he saw a dozen people in iron armor below, his eyes lit up: "Come in, all of you. I will allow you to enter the city for refuge."

"Refuge?" Brand was a little puzzled, but he had to find them first.

Afterwards, he asked his men to go back and remove the non-combat personnel on the ship, lest any fish that slipped through the net would come over and hurt them, after all, they still had to stay here for a while.

Bob saw five pirate ships approaching in the distance and fought with two big ships in the port, so he asked, "Aren't they coming in? Don't waste your manpower, you can't beat them at sea."

"No need." Brand waved his hand, "They can withstand it."

"Then you can do whatever you want." Bob stopped talking, while Brand contacted number one in his mind, "number one, we've come to town."

"We are taking a rotation break. We played all day yesterday, and almost shot out our bows and arrows." No. [-] replied, "We will be here soon."

Brand led the people into the town, and then Christine and other non-combatants disembarked and were heading towards the town.

Just as Brand was recalling the details of the gold capture plan made by the captain and Hei Yao, Bob's voice sounded: "Wait!"

"What's wrong?" Brand asked back.

"I can take you in for refuge, but not these people." Bob pointed at Christine and the others, "I'm afraid there won't be enough food."

Christine also heard the lord's words, and frowned slightly: "As a lord, what reason do you have for refusing to protect civilians?"

"This is my territory, I have the final say." Bob looked her figure up and down with lewd eyes, "Of course, if you are willing to serve my lord, I can let these free eaters in."
