The Evil Generation of Pirates

Chapter 88: Shipwreck Rescue

The plan will not start until noon on November [-]th, and it will take about two and a half days to get from Oasis Port to Sleepless City. One-Eyed Ross still has two days to prepare. .In fact, when Marquis Scarlet arrived at the Oasis Port secretly, he had already arranged everything.

Men, weapons, and ships were fully equipped.This time, in addition to the hundred people under the One-Eyed Pirates, there are also 500 people sent by Marquis Scarlet. They also stand under the command of the Black Zone to act for them, and now they all obey the orders of One-Eyed Ross.

There are three ships, all cargo ships.Because they did not need to land on the island to fire guns when plundering the Evernight City, and taking a pirate ship from the Oasis Port was simply asking for death, so they equipped three cargo ships.There are two advantages to using a cargo ship. One is that it is fast when not loading, and the other is that it can carry a lot of things.

As for the weapons, they are not very new, but they have enough ammunition to fight a battle.

In two days, One-Eyed Ross got to know [-] new subordinates and integrated them.Before setting off, Marquis Scarlet met with him again and asked him to kill all these men as much as possible in order to ensure that the matter would not be leaked in the end.

These people have become pawns that can only be used once, and Scarlet must ensure that the secret will always remain a secret.A one-eyed Ross can spend a lot of money to fly away, and can also use this move to consolidate his rule, but for hundreds of one-eyed Ross, it is not just a matter of money, no one can be sure that these people will not leak secrets.

In the early morning of November [-]th, when it was time to set off, One-Eyed Ross took three cargo ships and more than [-] men to the city that never sleeps.

On the afternoon of November [-], a warship sailed past a certain island affiliated with the Tuscaman Kingdom in the Okama Sea area, then made a circle and started to return the way it came.

There were two officers in large cloaks standing on the bow side of the warship, one of whom was holding a telephone.

"You went to Yusro Island for repairs." The person who spoke was Luca, and Derek was listening to the call next to him.

The two had previously separated from Yamos and the others and followed another warship cruising off the coast of the Tuscaman Kingdom.This is a long voyage, and more than ten days have passed.Their one voyage was enough for Amos and his companions to go to sea two or three times.

"Well, I just arrived. I should rest tonight and start again tomorrow morning. Go directly back to the branch." The person on the other end of the phone was Yamos. "What about you? When will you be back?"

"Oh, don't mention it." Luca sighed irritably, "What kind of order did Colonel Adolf give yesterday, which temporarily changed the cruise schedule of our warships. Originally, we were also planning to return, but now we have to make a long detour. Take a long way to the sea area of ​​​​the Kingdom of Argos and then return to the branch."

"Everything has been changed?" Yamos asked.

"Yeah, I don't know what the reason is." Luka was full of resentment. With his temperament, it was already unpleasant enough to drift in the sea for half a month. Now he directly ordered a big detour. After thinking about it, at least he could go back. It takes ten days.

Yamos was a little confused and concerned about this matter: "All your warships have been temporarily mobilized? You don't know what the situation is?"

"How do we know? The boss's orders didn't give us a chance to ask." Luka curled his lips.

Derek took the phone bug from Luka's hand: "It's probably not a big deal. By the way, Dolat called me a while ago and asked me what secrets you would like to share next time we get together, right?"

Hearing this, Yamos looked helplessly at Dorat beside him at the dock of Yusro Island. Dorat spread his hands and smiled.

"He asked us to return to the branch as soon as possible." Derek joked, "Luca and I would have traveled back day and night if we hadn't been involved in military affairs."

"Come on, don't talk about whether there is something or not." Yamos scolded with a smile, "Then let's do this first, Dorat and I will be busy with the supplies here."

"Okay, let's talk later." Derek hung up the phone.

In fact, Yusluo Island is not that far away from them, because Yusluo Island is basically at the junction of the spheres of influence of the two countries in the Okama Sea. When Drake and the others sailed away from the original planned route, they were far away from Yusluo Island. About a day and a half flight.

After hanging up the phone, Yamos and the others concentrated on arranging the supply of the warship. After this supply, they would go directly back to the branch.

Drake and the others are still bored here, and even people like Luka have reached the point of using training to kill time.

Both of them were in the captain's cabin, chatting with the captain of the warship, Captain Harrow.

At this time, the phone bug equipped on the warship made a sound of "Bulu, Bulu, Bulu, Bulu".Derek, who was closest, answered the phone, and an anxious male voice came from the phone.

The content is probably that a cruise ship encountered a shipwreck in a certain sea area and needed the navy to rescue it.That sea area is where Drake and the others passed through before, and it only takes about two hours to return there.

Captain Harrow suggested obeying Colonel Adolf's order and continuing the voyage on the changed route.Drake believed that hundreds of lives had to be saved, and even if he continued sailing in accordance with Colonel Adolf's order, he would not be guilty of delaying the military aircraft, so he decided to order the warship to return to rescue the cruise ship.

After learning more about the situation through a phone bug, Drake learned that there were nearly [-] people on the cruise ship.It would be very difficult to transport it on their not-so-large warship, and there would be no room for accommodation and insufficient supplies.So he notified the nearest port and asked them to quickly arrange for two cargo ships to sail to assist in the rescue.

After everything was arranged, the warships were rushing back at full speed.

Before there was time, the sailors discovered the leak in the cruise ship's hull in time and closed the watertight door, greatly slowing down the ship's sinking.

Two hours later, the warship arrived at the drifting spot of the cruise ship. At this time, the bow of the cruise ship had tilted up at a 45-degree angle, and most of the hull was engulfed in seawater. There were five or six small boats floating around the cruise ship, each carrying passengers. There are more than ten people.

During the previous call, Drake also learned that the cruise ship had not been overhauled for quite some time, and that it was not equipped with enough lifeboats according to regulations.These vacancies were filled by the Saint-Var Shipping Company.

Now that something has happened, the future responsibility will also be attributed to Saint-Val Shipping Company.This company needs to pay for the supply consumption of the warship for this rescue and the money for mobilizing cargo ships from nearby ports to sail for rescue.

Of course, this is something that only those who have rescued must seriously consider. Drake and his warships quickly approached the sinking cruise ship, and the warships deployed ten lifeboats equipped in accordance with regulations.

These ten lifeboats can carry a maximum of 200 people.

But this can only be a temporary move.

Of course, a lifeboat can accommodate so many people, and a warship can also accommodate them, but subsequent settlement is a big problem.The maximum carrying capacity of a warship of this size is less than 150 people. Excluding a hundred regular sailors and soldiers, the warship can only accommodate 50 people.

This is just a small thing. If you just take a rest, it will be enough.

What really gives Drake a headache is supplies. Their food and fresh water are only enough for their soldiers for two days. Now that they are all taken out, I am afraid it is only enough for these people to eat one meal.

It takes at least a day and a half for a cargo ship to sail from a nearby port!

At this moment, the rescued captain reported an extremely important piece of information to Drake.

After being rescued to the warship, the captain said angrily: "Three cargo ships passed our ship half an hour ago. We asked them for help, but they ignored us and left!"
