The hostage grabbed James's trousers and begged for mercy. James pointed the gun at the man's head."One minute is up, Captain. You've hesitated for too long."
James fired.
The hostage was lying in a pool of blood.
There was silence in the cabin. James said,"Captain, wait one more minute. I'll take one more person. After all, we're going to have fewer mouths to eat these days."
"Full right rudder, retreat."
"Senior officer?"
"Full right rudder, retreat."
"Yes!" "Full right rudder, full speed ahead," the combat officer said.
James said,"that's right. I like commanders who have human feelings."
"Release the hostages." Lu Yuan said in a deep voice.
"That won't do," James said,"this is my trump card. Captain, remember to stay out of your radar's detection range."
Lu Yuan looked at Lin Jingsheng,"Your Highness, we know that you are eager to take revenge, but ..."
"Ling is inside." Lin Jingsheng said in a deep voice. He saw Chu Ling. He was in the innermost cage and was also on the verge of death. However, he recognized the watch on his wrist. There was a meteorite on the surface of his watch, the one and only watch in the world. He also struggled to look at the camera with his eyes. Although his face was a mess of blood and flesh, he still recognized that ah Ling was not dead, ah Ling was not dead, and he was on the boat.
"Your Highness, are you sure you didn't see wrongly?"
"I'm sure. I'm not mistaken. He's inside." Lin Jingsheng said in a deep voice. Fortunately, they had not fired the third Cannonball, or else water would have entered the cabin and all the hostages would have drowned.
Luckily.
Ah Ling, you're still alive, thank the heavens.
Lin Jingsheng almost cried tears of joy.
However, when he thought of James, who killed without blinking, Lin Jingsheng broke out in a cold sweat. James had taken a hostage's life, so when would he take another person's life on a whim? he was indeed a homicidal maniac.
Lu Yuan and Wesley looked at each other. Lu Yuan said,"the nearest land here is more than 20 nautical miles away. The rescue personnel are waiting there. Even if they fly over, it will be too late. We are afraid of shooting at the rat for fear of breaking the vases. This battle has become even more difficult to fight."
"Yes, I am." Wesley said in a deep voice. No matter who the hostage was, they were all cautious. Even if Lin Jingsheng hated them, he would not sacrifice so many people without knowing that Chu Ling was inside.
Xiao Qiao said,"their submarine must be broken. It needs to be repaired."
"The problem is, we can't get close to them."
As soon as they got close to the submarine, they would be able to detect it and the radar would react immediately. Whether it was underwater or on the surface, they would be defeated by their cannonballs without the ability to fight back. Therefore, there was no way to get close at all, just like how the enemy ship could get close to the warship.
Lin Jingsheng was extremely anxious. He had to find a way to save Chu Ling. There must be a way to save him, as long as he could save him.
Wesley said in a deep voice,"my brother is on the boat. Chu Ling will be fine."
The Elizabeth had left the radar's range. Once out of the radar's range, the missile would not be able to accurately aim. On the sea, they were facing the hurricane Pirates "ships.
The damage to the hurricane was more serious. Jack said lightly,"it will take at least five days to repair it."
"Such a long time?"
"Yes!" Jack said.
This was his greatest chance to save mu Yuan. It was also his only chance. James looked at the sea with his binoculars and saw the Elizabeth not far from them, at the edge of the radar. James sneered."Send a pair of people to set up torpedoes and trap them in the middle."
"Yes, I am."
A motorboat was launched.
On the Elizabeth.
The combat officer said,"Captain, the other party is setting up torpedoes."
Lu Yuan and Wesley both took the binoculars and looked at the sea. They were setting up torpedoes, which were no different from cannonballs to warships. Wesley said,"I hate torpedoes the most."
"Same to you."
As a Captain, Lu Yuan hated torpedoes more.
"Are we just going to let them set it up like this?" Reid asked.
"I can't fall out with you." Wesley said that there were too many things they needed in the submarine. There were also people they cared about. They really could not do anything. If they did, the consequences would be unimaginable. Lu Yuan did not want to anger James.
James said,"send someone to repair the ship immediately. Repair the ship as soon as possible."
"Yes."
A pirate walked over."James, are we just going to wait like this? what if they throw another bomb over?"
"They wouldn't dare." James said that they wouldn't dare to act rashly with our ship full of hostages.
"What if they don't want to live anymore?"
"I won 't." James said,"when did the Lieutenant Colonel of the United States Navy become a Chinese? go and check who this Lieutenant Colonel Lu Yuan is."
"I've checked. C country's navy Lieutenant Colonel, the captain of the Red Lion. This time, major Wesley applied for international assistance and sent Lieutenant Colonel Lu Yuan to land."
"Since when does the United States Navy need to apply for international assistance? they have plenty of experienced lieutenant colonels and generals."
"I don't know about that."
"No matter who it is, we'll make sure they can't return. Hurry up and repair the submarine. They dare to go against us with just a warship. It's only a matter of minutes before we beat them up."
"Yes."
Another pirate walked over."James, we need to restock on some items and fuel."
"Go to the cargo ship just now."
"Yes."
James 'submarine was plundering their spoils of war. After a long time, they had also drained the cargo ship of its fuel. Xiao Qiao and Lin Jingsheng looked at the ship together."Don't worry, we will bring Chu Ling back. Jack is on the ship, so he will be fine."
Lin Jingsheng said,"I hope so."
For three consecutive days, the two warships were closely monitoring each other. Be it Lu Yuan or Wesley, they could only wait and do nothing. Lin Jingsheng did not get a good night's sleep. On the third day, Lu Yuan took the initiative to contact James.
"James, let's talk about the terms."
"You're not qualified to negotiate with me. "
"Please understand your situation. To put it bluntly, what does the life and death of your ship have to do with us? if we let you kill the innocent, more people will die. Sacrificing them will save more people. Even international condemnation is a temporary thing. Since ancient times, rescue has always been prioritized. You should have realized that it will take a few more days for your ship to go underwater. If I want to blow you up, it's easy."
"Lieutenant Colonel Lu Yuan, I'm not sure if you've heard of an international practice in the United States Navy since ancient times?"
"Please speak."
"We never negotiate with terrorists." James and Wesley said in unison.
Lu Yuan glanced at Wesley."Times have changed. Why don't we talk face to face? there is a small island nearby. James, what do you think?"
