"Tianbao~"
A pirate with a scorpion tattoo on his neck walked over.
"What's the matter, Gu?"
Li Yan rubbed his eyes.
"I checked the situation on the other ships, including the casualties, and I'll report to you."
"Speak."
Gu tallied the accounts meticulously:
"There's no significant damage to the four lorcha boats. Each has about ten to thirty fewer people, but there's nothing serious. When the waves hit, two leaders acted on their own initiative and threw overboard quite a bit of cargo that has now drifted too far to retrieve."
"The cannons are undamaged, right?"
Boats can be replaced, the Red Flag Gang isn't short of boats, but in Lantau Island, adding all the various cannons together, there were only a little over two hundred in total. Li Yan had armed each boat to the teeth this time, each lorcha equipped with cannons and explosive shells—a luxury even the official fleets couldn't afford.
