On the fortification tower of Port Royal, the adjutant Groves was leading a group of soldiers to patrol in a neat line. He had just brought the soldiers to this fortification by the sea to complete a shift change. Now it is His last routine patrol before the break.

Although, in name, the city of Port Royal now belongs to witches, and even soldiers like myself are already prisoners of others in name, but Adjutant Groves still feels that sooner or later It still belongs to the British Empire! Therefore, he still performed his duties dutifully as usual.

In fact, this is indeed the case. Now, apart from the witches having the final say in this city, their people are still managing the various departments!

Just like here now, the most important city defenses and gun towers in the port city of Port Royal are still guarded by their soldiers, but the flag of the British Empire is no longer flying. If it is determined that someone can deal with those witches, they only need to raise the flag up again, and then this place will become a port city of the British Empire again!

"Who's there! Uh... Your Excellency the Brigadier General?"

When they patrolled to the top of the fortifications, Adjutant Groves found that their Brigadier General Norrington was alone in a corner with a pint of rum, drinking heavily while leaning on his shoulders. Cannon looked at the sea that didn't exist.

After signaling to the soldiers following him to go on patrol first, he walked up to Brigadier General Norrington. Then, Groves looked at the sea. The night is very heavy now, covered by dark clouds. In this weather, On the sea in the distance, there is nothing to see at all! Even the Intrepid and Interceptor in the naval port below can only see the two wind lanterns at the stern.

"Your Excellency, Brigadier General, it's already late at night, you should go to rest now, leave the rest to us!"

After being silent for a while, the adjutant Groves dutifully walked up to the brigadier general and advised him that there are so many things that happened today, indeed, no one is expected to be in a good mood.

"Oh? It's Groves, you..."

Norrington ignored what the other party said, still leaning against the cannon like that, raised his head and drank a big gulp of rum before letting out a hard breath.

"Hehe...Gloves, in just half a day, we have fallen to this point, how can we sleep?"

Just a few days ago he was promoted to Brigadier General.

Then he became a prisoner immediately today. The ups and downs in this life are too fast, so why not allow him to drink some wine to soothe his aggrieved and bored mood?

"Your Excellency, Brigadier General! Anyway, there are only three short months, why do you do this?"

Adjutant Groves couldn't bear to see the brigadier general drinking away his sorrows like this, anyway, didn't the witch say it? After three months, let them go. If that's the case, why worry? At that time, you can completely get rid of the witch's control by sailing out to sea.

"Ha! You still don't get it, Gloves, it's not that simple."

Norrington looked at the adjutant, then laughed at himself, and took another sip of wine!

For him, Norrington, this incident is completely a stain that will never be erased for life. Even if the witch really lets them go as promised after three months, other soldiers and low-level officers may be fine, but he promises What a disaster for Linton!

If it is as easy as seizing power and idle, it will be like this for a lifetime! At worst, it is not impossible to be kicked out of the army, reduced from a brigadier general to a civilian, or even sent to prison for questioning!

Adjutant Groves looked at the Brigadier General's state and didn't speak any more. After seeing another wave of soldiers changing the guard in the distance, he knew that it was late at night, and that should be the last wave of changing the guard.

Afterwards, he silently stood beside the brigadier general, without saying a word, just standing quietly on the side, also looking at the sea in the distance where he could not see anything.

...

Suddenly, several dull sounds of "whoosh, whoosh" came, and then there were bursts of explosions from the sea in the distance, and at the same time, bursts of solid shells exploded on the wall not far from them. The sound of violent impact and the sound of cracking when the city wall was broken.

Both Norrington and Groves cheered up. This is... shelling? Then, they quickly squatted under the parapet on the city wall!

For a navy like them that lives at sea all year round, these sounds are all too familiar! Now, someone actually shelled Port Royal in the middle of the night? Moreover, the other party is still taking advantage of the night to approach and bombard the port?

"Bombardment! Enemy attack!!"

The adjutant Groves immediately began to shout, and at the same time, the sound of being hit by shells was heard continuously from the surrounding city walls, and there were also bursts of intensive artillery on the sea.

At this moment, the coastal defense batteries of Port Royal also started to make noise at the same time. The well-trained royal soldiers began to run to their respective artillery positions one by one, and began to carry shells and gunpowder barrels, preparing to reload and counterattack.

"Quick! All artillery is in position immediately! Prepare to counterattack!!"

Brigadier General Norrington also began to drop his bottle, stood up and shouted loudly at the slightly flustered soldiers!

Today, something happened to Port Royal and it was occupied by witches, and now someone came to bombard the port? That would definitely not be their own British Royal Navy. As a brigadier general, Norrington knew that his own navy's response was definitely not that fast! Then, it can only be an enemy ship or pirate, this is definitely a premeditated attack!

After watching the soldiers quickly get into position, load the gunpowder shells, close the gun door, and push the gun out of the muzzle of the city wall, Second Lieutenant Norrington breathed a sigh of relief. Even though so many things happened today, his soldiers The fighting power is still there.

Afterwards, he took out the binoculars that he carried with him, and wanted to see where the enemy was!

It's a pity that the enemy didn't continue to fire after a round of sudden shelling, and there didn't seem to be any lights on the opponent's ship, so under the current weather, he couldn't see the enemy's ship at all. The specific position can only be roughly judged. In this case, they have no way to fight back rashly, it will only be a waste of shells.

"Commander! Look, there seems to be a boat on the sea? They even lowered the boat?!"

The adjutant Groves suddenly shouted at Norrington, and pointed to the sea near the port, where the shadows of several small boats could already be vaguely seen.

Hearing the adjutant's prompt, Norrington hastily turned the binoculars to the direction indicated by the adjutant to look over. No, it's even better to use the binoculars, he has already seen it with the naked eye.

Where, on the dark sea, those small boats were full of sailors! It can be seen from their inconsistent costumes that they should be a group of pirates?

Are those pirates crazy?

Norrington felt a little unbelievable. These pirates came to the port secretly and fired a few shots to increase their momentum. It's fine to run after the fight, but now, they still want to play landing operations with the regular army? Are the Royal Musketeers under him really so easy to bully? It's fine if you lose your temper after being beaten by the witch, but now, even cats and dogs like these pirates come out and want to step on you?

"Gloves, lead 300 people down immediately! Go to the harbor square below to form an array, and we must destroy those pirates who landed!"

After seeing the adjutant leading the order to leave, Norrington said to the battery officer on standby: "The No. 1 and No. 2 batteries are free to fire and sink those small boats approaching! The other batteries are on standby. Once an enemy ship is found, immediately shooting!"

"Obey! Your Excellency!"

An artillery officer quickly led the order to leave. When he turned around and passed by, after a while, more than 20 heavy coastal defense guns in the No. 1 and No. 2 gun positions at the lower position of the cannon began to roar. .

Boom~boom~boom~!

A burst of shells whizzed towards the small boats approaching the port, smashing up water jets one after another, and one shell even directly hit an unlucky small boat, tearing it into a pile of pieces, even the passengers on it The pirates were also blown into the sea one after another.

But at this time, on the dark sea invisible in the distance, an arrogant voice was shouting loudly.

"Hahaha! You all feel it? That thing, it's in this Port Royal! So, hurry up, put down the last two boats, and give me all to find that gold coin! Can't find it Don't come back here!"

Captain Hector Barbossa was grinning and giving orders on the Black Pearl at this time. He drove the remaining pirates on the Black Pearl to board the last two small boats with him.

Two days ago, the Black Pearl, which was still wandering around in the sea, suddenly received a special wave from the cursed Aztec gold coin. Then, the Black Pearl, which was at full speed, arrived at Port Royal. Two full days!

They have been looking for this cursed gold coin for a long time.

Although before that, they found most of the gold coins! But...the last one is left!

For the last gold coin, they searched hard in the vast sea for many years, but they still didn't have the slightest information! And now, they finally received the fluctuation from it, and it is now in this Port Royal! They're going to find it soon, this damned curse is going to leave them soon!

"Bastard, hurry down! Attack me to the shore, to the city!"

Captain Barbossa kicked a dawdling pirate into the boat, and then swung his sword and shouted angrily, "Fire!"

Soon the artillery on the Pearl roared again, and its firing again finally allowed the defenders on the shore to find the exact position, and then the defenders' heavy artillery counterattacked! The two solid shells even made two opposite holes in the Black Pearl, and a few unlucky ones were torn to pieces.

It's just that Captain Barbossa didn't mind about it. Now people like me are cursed by Aztec gold coins. Under this evil curse, people like me are now immortal!

Otherwise, he wouldn't be stupid enough to let dozens of pirates go to the port to fight against the British with at least a thousand regular soldiers. When he thought about it, he couldn't die anyway, so he went ashore to wreak havoc and search, and then ran away after grabbing the Aztec gold coins. No matter how many British people there are, what can they do?

As long as they are not caught on the spot, as long as they are not set on fire and burned to ashes, even if they are blown to pieces, they will still be immortal. This is why Basab has the courage to attack a city.

"Gun on the shoulder! Aim! The first row is ready..."

Adjutant Groves was leading 200 soldiers at the unloading square of the port, and they formed two phalanxes of 100 men. Near the city gate behind, there was another 100-man team standing by.

"Fire!"

Seeing the thirty or forty pirates who had finally landed and charged them in a chaotic formation, Adjutant Groves frowned suspiciously. Although he was a little puzzled by the enemy's stupid actions, he still Fire was ordered.

He didn't know, these pirates looked so small, why would they dare to charge against their musketeer phalanx? Could it be that their brains are flooded? Want to die?

bang~! bang~! bang~! bang~! A neat volley of muskets fired.

"Second row! Open fire!"

bang~! bang~! bang~! bang~!

To deal with such a small number of enemies, Groves did not ask for three shots at all, but only asked the soldiers in the two rows in front to shoot a volley directly. He believed that it only took two rounds, and all these pirates would die. Not left!

Sure enough, after the two salvos ended, the pirates were all knocked down to the ground by a large number of bullets.

Just when Groves thought that the battle at the port was over, and was about to let the soldiers gather up and clean up the battlefield, who would have thought that those pirates who should be lying dead on the ground would stand up one by one? They could even clearly see bullet holes piercing through their bodies, but the strange thing was that they didn't see any blood stains on their bodies?

"Aha! We can't die, brothers! Go!"

The pirates who stood up looked at the panicked royal soldiers on the opposite side, then raised their scimitars with a smirk, and charged towards the opposing army formation again.

Oh, God……

Groves gasped! How is it an undead enemy? What happened to this world? First there were witches who were invulnerable to guns and guns and had terrifying witchcraft, and now these undead pirates came again? Can this still allow their Royal Navy to play happily?

"Fire from the third row! Hold on to the first and second rows! Hold the bayonets flat! Push them back!"

After trying to calm down the turmoil in his heart, Groves still dutifully ordered.

At this time, it is obviously too late to reload! Fortunately, after the witch incident, their hearts and nerves have been tempered, so these pirates can't scare them for the time being.

After another round of shooting, the moment the two sides came into close contact, the royal soldiers stabbed the robbers running over with their bayonets like a forest. However, even though these pirates had been stabbed in the body by bayonets, they still continued to swing their swords at the soldiers as if nothing had happened!

For a while, the two sides were constantly attacking each other. Although there are still many royal soldiers fighting against the pirates, it is the flesh and blood royal soldiers who started to suffer casualties!

Groves was horrified to find that although these pirates did not have the same desperate magical power as the witches, they seemed to be invincible!

"Stab him to death!!!"

Take a look, those pirates who were grabbed by the limbs and fell to the ground by several soldiers, and kept stabbing them with bayonets, but he still tried to stand up and fight back, what happened? If they were stabbed dozens of times without dying, should they be broken into pieces?

"Where's my head? Ha, found it!"

And the pirate over there whose head was cut off by a sword, his headless body was groping all over the floor, and when he found his own head, he put his head back on his neck, Then can you continue to fight? This is too much...

The adjutant has already seen that these pirates, in terms of strength, they are completely like ordinary people, not too outstanding. It only takes two or three soldiers to push the opponent to the ground and beat them violently! However, no matter how hard they fought, they were completely unable to effectively harm the opponent. In just a while, the royal soldiers had already suffered more than 20 casualties. Groves was terrified, and was considering whether he should now Order to retreat?

At this time, the clouds in the sky were blown away by the sea wind, and then a ray of moonlight shone down, just shining on the two sides in the battle at the port.

The pirates who were illuminated by the moonlight immediately changed into another look: they all turned into hideous skeletons, with their tattered bodies and dry and fleshless skeletons, they were all a group of Skeleton monster? !

I see!

Groves finally understood, no wonder they couldn't be killed! It turns out that these pirates are simply a group of undead skeletons...

"Devil! Run!!"

I don't know who started it first, but after seeing the real appearance of the enemy, the soldiers began to leave the battle spontaneously, turned around and ran away, some even dropped their weapons directly!

Today, they had already fought with the witch for an afternoon, and they finally calmed down. Now they encountered this kind of monster again. Their fighting will was already low to zero. At this moment, they no longer want to fight with the witch. This inhuman monster went to fight!

"retreat!!!"

Originally, there was a phalanx of one hundred men near the city gate at the back. When the officers of this phalanx were still hesitating whether to step forward to support them, they finally saw the specific situation of the pirates under the moonlight, so they Without waiting for Adjutant Gloves' order, he directly issued the decision to retreat, and the hundred of them also began to turn their heads and quickly ran into the city gate.

"Your Excellency Brigadier General? What should we do now?"

On the city wall, the officers who had stopped shelling gathered around Norrington in twos and threes. They were also frightened by the battle below. Those pirates turned out to be a group of skeletons? How can this be?

"Hmph! Why panic? Let the witches deal with it. Look, isn't she already here?"

Norrington stopped the commotion of his subordinates, and motioned them to look in the direction of the city. On the other side of the street, a girl floating in mid-air was speeding towards the direction of the city gate and port.

This world is really becoming more and more interesting...

Tsk tsk, take a look, first there was a scary witch during the day, and now at night, an unbeatable skeleton pirate appeared again? This is really interesting! Then, why not let Norrington take a good look at it, and find out who are these witches? Or are those undead skeleton pirates more powerful? It would be great if both of them were hurt!
