Chapter 150 Shrimp Head: Seeking Fortune and Fortune in Danger
Shrimp Head was a little pirate wandering in the Jade Sea four years ago.
Then he took advantage of his boss's accident, killed his boss's son, and ran away with all the money.
After many twists and turns, he finally came to Westeros to make a living. Due to an unexpected situation, he was forced to join the looting fleet of the Iron Islands.
Because of his rich experience in looting and ruthless style of doing things, he was left in the Iron Islands to make a living and was nicknamed Shrimp Head.
And then until now.
Because he had previously followed Asha Greyjoy to plunder the North, he became the captain of three ships and wandered around the north with 22 people.
At this time, Xia Tou looked hesitant. There must be a lot of guards on such a large ship, but if he went back to call for help, the ship would probably disappear when he came back.
Just as Xia Tou was hesitating, he suddenly saw nine guards in blue armor appear on the deck at the bow.
The blue armor worn by the leader was so handsome that Shrimp Head's greed instantly took over his heart.
And there were no other guards on the deck. Given the ruthlessness and fighting skills of the Iron Men, it was possible for 22 people to capture this huge merchant ship.
Even if he could capture Myrcella, he could bring her to the Iron Throne to seek credit, and it would not be impossible for him to become a noble and establish a century-old family in the future.
Shrimp Head is a person who always believes that wealth and honor can be achieved through risk, but at the same time he also remains a little vigilant. The nine guards who appeared on the deck gave Shrimp Head confidence.
At Shrimp Head's order, the three speedboats sped up and rushed towards the Poseidon, while preparing their flying claws, ready to climb onto the Poseidon at any time.
The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and soon it was less than a hundred meters.
Ge felt that the timing and distance were about right, so he asked several crossbowmen to prepare and immediately fire their bows and crossbows as soon as the enemy got within fifty meters.
Shrimp Head looked at the Poseidon getting closer and closer, and couldn't help showing excitement on his face. It seemed that the Poseidon had no defensive weapons, so I had the advantage!
Soon, Shrimp Head's three speedboats were only 20 meters away from the Poseidon, which was basically the same as being face-to-face at sea.
A sneer appeared on Ge's face. He waved his hand and pushed out four crossbow carts in front of Xiatou's horrified gaze.
The crossbowman quickly secured the base of the crossbow cart and then aimed at the speedboat where the shrimp head was.
"put!"
Four sounds of breaking through the air were heard, and a one-meter-long crossbow arrow directly pierced through the hull, taking away one of Shrimp Head's men.
The shrimp head was terrified when he saw this, and then he shouted loudly: "Speed up, stick to it, our ship has been hit by a hole, either die or rob that big ship and live a life of wealth and glory from now on, charge!"
Shrimp Head knew human nature well and knew that he had fallen into the trap of Poseidon.
It was too late to escape, so he could only use the threat of wealth and death to make his crew members fight to the death.
Only if everyone works together, there is still a chance to survive, and even wealth and prosperity are within reach.
After approaching the Poseidon, the Shrimp Heads had already endured three waves of crossbow bombardment, and the three speedboats were already badly damaged. If they could not take down the Poseidon, they would die in the Seal Bay.
As the flying claws grabbed the edge of the Poseidon, the shrimp head quickly bit the sword in its mouth and climbed up quickly.
Half of the ironborn climbed up with pickaxes.
It is very difficult to seize a large ship, and the most difficult part is how to land on the deck of the ship.
Ge picked up the bow and arrow slowly, not caring at all about the three ships of small pirates that attacked the Poseidon.
The three ships had a maximum of forty people, while the rowers on the Poseidon were all trained soldiers, who were strong and muscular from rowing. Any pirate group with less than four hundred people posed no threat to the Poseidon.
Unless the opponent has ship crossbows, they can directly use their numerical advantage to destroy the Poseidon.
He pulled the bowstring to its full length and shot away the Iron Claw with one arrow. Seeing this, Volk smiled and said, "Boss, don't kill them all. Let them all come up. We always get beaten when fighting you every day. Let us find some confidence."
Ge looked back and saw that Wohan and Ryan also looked expectant.
So Ge put away his bow and arrow and ordered: "Watch the entrance to the cabin later, don't let them rush into the cabin."
Walker had a bloodthirsty look on his face. He was originally a gladiator, but after following Jack, he participated in fewer and fewer battles. Now that there was a target offered as a human, Walker could no longer suppress his bloodthirsty heart.
On the other side, the Ironborn climbed onto the deck of the Poseidon unhindered. At this time, there were only 17 of them left.
Xia Tou's heart sank when he looked at the nine fully armored knights opposite him. Although they had the advantage in numbers, they had no armor.
The difference between having armor and not having armor is huge. An armored soldier can easily deal with more than three times the number of enemies.
But at this time the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. Shrimp Head roared and took the lead to rush towards Jack's whale shark guard.
"Cut off the hands of the leader and make sure to capture him alive. Kill the rest," Ge ordered.
Then Ge himself retreated to the entrance of the cabin. At this time, there were more than a hundred rowers and a dozen maids protected in the cabin.
Jack's Whale Shark Guards, also known as the Royal Iron Guards, are all former gladiator champions, so their fighting ability is naturally needless to say. Although the Iron Guards are fierce and aggressive, they are still far behind the gladiators who have been fighting in the arena all year round.
Facing the fully armored gladiator, the Ironborn with messy weapons were no match at all. Volk stuffed his sword into the mouth of an Ironborn with a cruel look on his face.
"Hahaha, what a great skill to swallow the sword in one gulp!" Walker shouted excitedly.
Walker had a big bald head, was 1.85 meters tall, had broad shoulders and a big waist. At this moment, he looked more like a cruel pirate than an iron man.
Volker's teammates had obviously gotten used to Volker's madness and watched the scene without changing their expressions.
To be honest, even in the arena, it was rare for gladiators to brutally kill each other.
The Iron Races were quickly killed. Seeing that the situation was not good, Shrimp Head rushed towards Ge who was watching the battle from a distance with a man.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that Xiatou would lead his men to rush towards their captain.
After being strengthened by Jack, Ge's physical fitness has reached twice that of an ordinary person. At the same time, he also changed his sword to a two-handed greatsword.
Normally when Ge and the Whale Shark Guards are training, they only feel the pressure when they are facing more than one.
Faced with the Shrimp Head and an Iron Seed rushing towards him, Ge did not panic at all. He raised his hand and used his sword to block the Shrimp Head's axe, and then kicked the other Iron Seed away.
Then Ge Yi used force to knock the short axe in Xia Tou's hand away, and then kicked Xia Tou in the knee joint.
Shrimp Head let out a violent wail. His right leg was kicked out and bent backward, looking extremely creepy.
Ignoring Shrimp Head's wailing, Ge stepped forward and stabbed the other Iron Man in the throat with a sword. Then he had someone tie up Shrimp Head and went to the statue of Poseidon in the cabin to start praying.
