Reborn As a Pirate
Three hundred and eleven I am a law-abiding businessman
Load the solid bullet, raise the muzzle, fix it, and release it!
boom! Boom boom boom!
There was a roar of thunder, and red-hot projectiles flew out of one side of the sandbar like splashing water, and fell to the other side, splashing water that covered the sky.
It was the third day of shelling Bimini.
For three consecutive days, the Golden Deer and the Eros alternated on both sides, and the two ships alternately projected ammunition towards the safe haven in an orderly manner. The average density was maintained at about every 30 minutes. Many, the actual damage is also very limited.
But this kind of 24-hour uninterrupted bombardment brought enormous mental pressure to the safe haven, especially those poor boats that couldn't compete for a berth.
In three days, there were four sloops, two skuners sank, one skuna and three brigantines were injured, and the rest of the ships were trembling, not daring to advance or retreat.
There were brave men who tried to negotiate with the Three-Eyed Raven at the mouth of the bay, but when they saw the pirates whose hulls were covered and almost sunburned, they retreated in a hurry, not daring to make a request for negotiation with that devil-like ship.
The pirates also tried to fulfill the duties of a host, such as chasing away, even temporarily, the bastards outside the sandbar who were irresponsibly littering cannonballs.
For the first time, Olves and Cupid accepted their advice peacefully and left for about two hours.
The second time, the Golden Deer rushed to help from the mouth of the bay, and the two sides had a brief but intense exchange of fire across the sandbar.
The hull of the Eros suffered a twelve-pound blow, and the two pirate ships led by Lame Romy were severely damaged. One of them, Brigantine, had its main mast broken by Yacharin, and almost failed to escape back to the berth.
Since then, Haven has completely stopped fighting back.
They endured, endured, endured...waiting for the announcement of the Drake Chamber of Commerce to persuade them to surrender, but Lorraine did not say a word from the beginning to the end.
until today.
Sprinkling another pellet aimlessly, Yacharin looked at his harvest with a telescope.
The possibility of this kind of shelling hitting the target is almost zero, but as long as they are not in berth, the possibility of those merchant ships being directly hit by shells is exactly the same.
No one can be spared by technology. In the safe haven of wind and waves, God is the only object that businessmen can rely on.
It's a pity that this round of shelling completely hit the empty space.
Yacharin turned the mirror boredly, and suddenly saw a small assault boat with a cross on the bow from the camera.
I am Badigya Zuanca, the president of the Tuxpan Zuanca Chamber of Commerce, a serious Spanish businessman, and the actual speaker of Haven.
A nobleman in fine clothes stood on the boat and shouted to the freeboard of the Golden Deer.
You're not real pirates, are you? For God's sake, I request a meeting with your commander.
...
More than three hours later, Zuanka and three other business representatives of different nationalities were taken by the Golden Deer to the Three-Eyed Raven.
The ship is still safely and steadily in the middle of the mouth of the bay. From the starboard side facing the inner sea, you can't see the terrifying human flesh hull hanging on the port side, only the gun shields that are supported messily on the deck Brackets and limited hanging from the mast for pirate regiment seamen.
Among them, the most familiar to merchants is the highest-hanging Assaros.
A business representative exclaimed: Oh my God! That's Cotton Jack's deputy head Assaros. Is he dead? A seagull was pecking at his face, but he didn't seem to respond at all!
He reacted... Zuanka opened his eyes in horror, His feet are trembling, it's just because he's dying that he can't make a stronger struggle...
The merchants who had been robbed tremblingly climbed up the ladder prepared for them. On the deck, they saw today's second acquaintance Chenori.
Zuanka blinked: Captain Chenori, you are...
I just threw myself into the arms of justice! Cheno Li patted his sharp-edged chest, I applied to serve in the Drake Chamber of Commerce, and for the sake of justice, I would not hesitate to start as a small sailor. Although Master Drake has not accepted my request, but I have been allowed to move freely on the ship, and the next step is to get a valuable contract!
Ah...that's really congratulations. Zuanka subconsciously glanced at Azaros on the top of the mast, then at the refreshed Chenori, and asked in a low voice, May I ask President Drake? is there?
Master is waiting for you in the restaurant. Chenori thought for a while, I've been waiting for three days.
A group of five people walked slowly along the side of the ship, Chenori pushed open the hatch like a courteous servant, and welcomed the merchant representatives into the dining room.
Standard negotiating posture.
There was a long table empty in the middle of the restaurant. Three men and two women sat on one side of the table, and four seats were reserved on the other side.
Lorraine stood up with a smile in a clean tuxedo and introduced to Zuanka and others.
I am Lorraine Drake, the president and chairman of the Great Britain Drake Chamber of Commerce, Ms. Heina Yesla and Ms. Noah Sara are the shareholders of the association, Mr. Richard Leonard He is the vice president and shareholder of the Kingston Caribbean Chapter.
And Mr. Pedro, I think you should be more or less familiar, because he was a smuggler who made a living in Bimini.
Zuanca knew Pedro, of course.
As a Spanish businessman who was also in Bimini, Pedro originally met the lame Romy under his recommendation.
The wives of the two of them are also distant cousins. From the perspective of wives and families, the relationship between the two is as close as the direct and collateral lines of a family!
such a close relationship...
Zuanka was so angry that he stared at Pedro's face like a snake staring at a frog: As expected of the kind-hearted Master Pedro...I wonder when did you meet President Drake? It would be too stingy not to recommend it for relatives.
Pedro opened his eyes weakly: Yes... I was persuaded by Mr. Drake on the way to Bimini. This...Badigya, you also know that we don't meet often...
But you can at least inform my wife!
Even my wife doesn't know about it...
Lorraine applauded boredly: Okay, okay, I didn't expect the two of you to be relatives. But today is a formal meeting, and the parents will keep their short stories until after the meeting, is that okay?
It is as if business representatives are qualified to say no.
Zuanka honestly led the merchants to sit down, and when Lorraine sat down, he spoke impatiently.
President Drake...
Lorraine turned to Hannah as if she didn't hear it, and Leonard coughed lightly twice.
Because the normal trade routes of the Chamber of Commerce are threatened, with the permission of the Supreme Glory of Great Britain, the Drake Chamber of Commerce has cleared up the illegal nests occupying the routes.
Operation Bimini is part of this cleanup.
Zuanka rolled his eyes, suppressing the desire to argue and being forced to pander.
Your Chamber of Commerce upholds justice and is a model for all businessmen in the civilized world. But...
After three days of clearing and suppressing operations, up to now, there are still twenty-nine pirate ships in the safe haven, including one of the fifth-level Galen type, one of the Bagh type, one of the Brig type, and one of the Brigantine type. Eight, twelve of the Skurner type, and six of the Sloop and other type of sloop.
Zuanka's face changed suddenly: President Drake...
Lorraine pointed at Leonard with his finger, without even looking back.
Zuanka can only be patient and go to Leonard again: Vice President Leonard, Cotton Jack's pirate ships include Holy Anne, Black Goat, Irian, Rodriguez and Orlando, a total of five ships , the rest are all innocent merchant ships!
Innocent? Leonard straightened his clothes, Pirates are the cancer of human civilization and the enemy of all justice. Trading with pirates is a crime that is expressly prohibited by all civilized countries, including Spain, your country's laws will Protect your life and legal property, but not your illegal wealth left in Bimini.
But... Zuanka gritted his teeth, We can join forces with the pirates. We have twenty-nine ships and thousands of people. You can't stop this force!
It seems that you are threatening me. Lorraine interrupted suddenly, and put a huge hat on Zaunka lightly, But you have to know that the premise that the threat is effective is that these thousands of people and twenty-nine This boat has the consciousness to sacrifice its life for you.
Do you know why I didn't let Chenori go to the island to persuade you to surrender? After you offered to contact, you insisted that businessmen from Britain, France and the United States must be accompanied by representatives?
Because I'm a law-abiding businessman.
Lorraine stood up with a smile, walked around the table, and put Zuanka on the shoulder.
You see, I deliberately removed my privateer certificate from the admiral's room and hung it in front of you, just to let you understand that all my actions have the sacred and official authorization of Great Britain.
My plunder was lawful, gentlemen, and the removal of the pirates was just. Just and lawful, that is the truth of this operation.
Let's make a long story short.
Lorraine straightened up and paced behind the business representatives.
Drake's privateer authorization does not include the British, so the British people and ships can leave and leave safely. If there are any accidental injuries during the bombardment of the first three days, please count them to me. I will ask the New World Fleet and The Governor-General of Jamaica will testify and give appropriate and generous compensation, even if you are wrong.
France is the enemy of Britain in the New World, but as the Drake Chamber of Commerce, we have a good relationship with the French colonial authorities. So I will spare the French people and ships, but the previous accidental injury, sorry, it was probably you The meaning of that God.
Then the Americans, the enemy of Great Britain, the motherland of Cotton Jack, I would be merciful to my French friends to send you unscathed to the Continent, but your ships and your treasures must be kept, and that is my due .”
Finally, Spain... Lorraine walked back to his seat and sat down, looking at Zuanka with a softer expression, Let's go to war according to your wishes. You could have been treated similarly to the Americans, even because of Ped Mr. Luo's righteous act, you can still take away part of the wealth. However, you have failed my goodwill.
It makes me regret, truly regret, President Zuanca.
