The middle-aged man had to call everyone out, get off the boat and weigh anchor in order to escape.
The sailors suppressed their fear and got off the ship. They rolled and crawled to the dock and untied the iron chains with trembling fingers.
However, the chain was tightened by the ship and was difficult to untie.
When the sailors heard the shouts of killing not far away, they were very frightened and panicked, and their work efficiency was greatly reduced. They couldn't untie an iron rope for a long time.
"Trash, get out of here!" The man in black next to him was furious. He pushed the useless sailor away and slashed the wooden pile on the dock with his knife.
These wooden piles are thick and large, nailed deeply into the shoal, and are specially used to bind iron chains and fix the hull.
The man in black slashed with his knife, and a shallow gap was made in the wooden pile.
"Go get an ax and chop these wooden piles into pieces so that the boat can enter the river smoothly!" Another man in black ordered loudly.
The sailors suddenly realized!
There's no need for them to fight with the iron chain. They can just chop down the wooden stakes. Maybe it'll be faster!
The sailors quickly found an axe, and together they hacked at the thick wooden piles on the dock, causing sawdust to fly everywhere. Fortunately, the hard work paid off, and the strong wooden piles were soon chopped into pieces.
As the wooden piles were chopped down one by one, the iron chains tied to the wooden piles finally became loose.
The river wind blew the sails, providing a powerful force that caused the entire ship to slide uncontrollably into the river. The loose iron chain dragged on the rocks in the shoal, making a crisp sound of "clang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang."
Very loud and harsh.
"The ship is about to leave! Get aboard quickly!"
The sailors on the dock shouted, immediately threw away their axes and ran to the ship.
The few men in black on the dock were no exception.
At this time, a dozen or so men in black ran in embarrassment from the shoal not far away. They were shocked when they saw this: "Sir, wait for us! We haven't boarded the boat yet!"
"The ship is leaving!"
"Wait for us"
More than a dozen people in black used all their strength and ran as fast as they could to catch up with the slowly moving boat.
Behind them were guards holding blood-stained swords and looking fierce.
"Hurry up and chase!"
"We can't let them escape!"
The two sounds were mixed together, accompanied by the creaking and shaking of the ship's hull, and sparks flying from the dragging chains on the ground, making the scene chaotic.
The sailors and a few men in black on the dock successfully climbed onto the ship and fell to the deck gasping for breath.
The middle-aged man was furious and stared at the men in black who were running towards the pier with their pursuers. He wanted to kill them all!
"Idiots! Bastards! They said they are not allowed to lead people to the side of the ship. Don't they have any brains?! If these Northern Qin soldiers are allowed to rush onto the ship, all of us will be finished! A bunch of idiots with no brains.
!”
The middle-aged man was so angry that he yelled and kicked the sailors lying on the deck: "Why are you still standing there, go and help row the boat! You must drive the boat away before they come over, go!"
The sailors didn't dare to breathe and got up in a hurry.
At this time, the middle-aged man remembered that he had overlooked something important.
"Where is your Excellency now? And the people who are protecting you personally, why didn't any of them come out to help?"
