A group of ferocious and arrogant pirates entered the country like locusts, charging ferociously at the federal soldiers stationed at the port, beating them to the ground. At the same time, the pirates also began to rob and loot valuable things. These pirates also got Tiki. He was ordered not to kill the people of San Francisco without authorization, so he only robbed things and no lives were harmed.
The war lasted for two hours, and both sides were angry.
More and more troops are gathering to the north of the port.
By now, Tiqi was also feeling tremendous pressure, and his expression gradually became serious.
A flash of worry flashed in Thomson's eyes, and he said seriously: "Captain, the resistance our brothers are encountering is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more troops in San Francisco. Our people are beginning to retreat. If we don't retreat, then the enemy will Come on, even if we want to retreat, we may have difficulties. I guess the boat going to pick them up has already picked up Li Zhen and his party, let's retreat."
Tiqi's face was stern, but he shook his head firmly and said: "We cannot withdraw, we must wait for confirmed news."
"We're bound to run into problems if we persist in the long term," Thomson said.
Teach stared at the pirates running back and forth on the shore and said calmly: "If President Lee has already evacuated San Francisco and boarded the ship, there will be no problem for us to retreat. However, if President Lee and his party have not boarded the ship yet, and we But withdrawing alone means that all the arrangements were made in vain, and this vigorous attack on the port was in vain."
Teach said seriously: "At that time, not only will we be targeted by the US Federation, but we will also be hated by Li Zhen. We will be caught in the middle and suffer the consequences. If we attack the San Francisco port, we will have no way out and can only keep fighting. Thomson, understand. ."
Thomson nodded and said, "I understand."
However, there was pain in his eyes, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
The war was still going on, and Teach began to feel anxious. He lit a cigarette and took long puffs of the cigarette to calm himself down. He remained motionless, like a solidified stone.
"Report,."
A pirate ran back and said: "Captain, San Francisco's counterattack is becoming more and more fierce. Our people are beginning to be unable to support it. The first team at the front is also beginning to show signs of retreat. The soldiers of the second team and the third team are definitely I almost can’t hold it anymore.”
Tiqi frowned and said, "Wait a little longer and hold on a little longer."
The soldier went to convey the order. Teach glanced at the southern position of the port and sighed.
So far, no one has been brought back.
He was already very anxious in his heart.
But Teach has no way out, he can only hold on, even if he loses. This is a big gamble, and the bet is on the future of the entire Teach pirate group. If he wins, it will be a smooth road; if he loses, The Teach Pirates may be completely annihilated.
Time gradually passed, and Thomson on the side became even more restless.
"Report,."
Another pirate soldier rushed back and reported loudly: "Captain, San Francisco's troops have been assembled and have launched a counterattack. As of now, San Francisco's troops are still one thousand meters away from the port shore. The first team, the second team, The soldiers of the third team and the other teams had already begun to retreat, unable to stop the federal army's offensive.
"I know, just hold on a little longer."
Teach waved the pirate off.
In ten minutes, the soldiers came again to report that San Francisco's army had advanced another 400 meters.
Tiqi still did not give the order to retreat, but still resisted.
Thomson was like an ant on a hot pot, anxious in his heart. He couldn't help but said: "Captain, we have persisted to this point. We have done everything we need to do. We have tried our best. Retreat. If we don't retreat, it will be too late." , this failure can be explained clearly even if Li Zhen pursues it. Besides, according to the time schedule, Li Zhen must have boarded the ship."
Tiqi looked up at the sky, confused.
Doesn't God help him?'
No, he doesn't believe it.
Tiqi was constantly struggling in his heart. At this moment, a whistling whistle came from his ears. He was shocked and followed the sound of the ship's whistle. His eyes widened instantly and a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. Color, because the big ship coming from the south was the pirate ship that went to meet Li Zhen. Seeing the big ship coming, Tiqi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at Thomson and ordered: "Give me the order to retreat."
"yes."
Thomson went to convey the order, and Teach ordered to fire at the warships docked on the shore. These warships belonged to the San Francisco Army. In order to avoid the other party's pursuit, these warships must be eliminated.
"Rumble,,."
The sound of cannons sounded, and not long after, warships were hit one after another.
The battleships in the San Francisco port lost their combat effectiveness, and Teach breathed a sigh of relief. In less than twenty minutes, all the pirates came back. Teach was so excited that he couldn't help shouting to the sky, and shouted: "Set sail, retreat."
This time, he made the right bet.
One by one, the warships set off and the troops that caught up stood on the shore and could only sigh softly.
Their battleships were damaged and could not be pursued at all. The war ended and San Francisco soldiers began to clean up the battlefield and appease the people in San Francisco's port.
In the mayor's office, the mayor was relieved when he learned that the war was over.
He looked at Gullit and asked, "What's the loss?"
Gullit replied: "Your Excellency, although the pirates came ashore to attack and robbed wantonly, these pirates were not crazy people. They only robbed things but did not kill any common people. All the common people were intact. However, One hundred and twenty-three of our soldiers died, and eighty-six of our pirates died. Moreover, all the pirates were dead, and not a single one was left alive."
"What, there's not a single person left alive."
The mayor frowned, with a look of helplessness on his face, and finally said: "If there are no survivors, we can't find out the reason why the pirates attacked the San Francisco port. How can I explain it to Washington and report it to the president?"
Gullit said: "Mayor, the reason has been found."
The mayor said: "What's the reason?"
Gulit said seriously: "Just now, I sent someone to check on Li Zhen's situation and found that Li Zhen and his soldiers had all disappeared, and no one was left. I think the pirates' attack was to cover Li Zhen. Leave, there is no doubt that these pirates were invited by Li Zhen, and similarly, Mr. Scott must have followed Li Zhen and left San Francisco."
"ah,."
The mayor exclaimed and turned pale.
He scratched his head and sighed: "Li Zhen is so cunning. He actually used the pirate attack to leave San Francisco. No matter what, it's a done deal now and it's impossible to save it. I'll pass the news to Washington truthfully." Waiting for news from Mr. President, you can send a telegram and report it truthfully."
"yes."
Gullit nodded, turned and left.
The mayor seemed to have lost all strength and slumped down, and said helplessly: "Li Zhen, Li Zhen, because of your arrival, Mayor Powell resigned voluntarily so that I could take over as the mayor of San Francisco. Now because of your departure, I, the San Francisco mayor, The mayor of the city must have come to an end. Because of your departure, I finally stepped down. Everything is because of you."
He looked lonely, and his heart was full of unwillingness, but he could only accept the reality.
