Reborn As a Pirate

Being a Pirate on Your Birthday ()!

If you beg me, I may be able to help you a little bit. Straight to the point, Hamilton said after a long absence.

Lorraine had a strange expression on his face: What? Just after the founding of the country, the United States can't wait to show its presence in the world? Is Spain a suitable target?

This is slander. Hamilton said sternly, Spain is not a suitable target. Even if Spain declines, it is not something the United States can afford.

It's rare for you to be self-aware. Lorraine beckoned Monica over, Tea? Or coffee?

Whiskey on the rocks, thanks.

Monica saluted and turned to prepare the wine, while Hamilton was serious.

Last time I met, I told you that the states are uneasy about the fact that the government still has a powerful army after the war. They think it is worthless and will only waste the tax dollars of the people.

The abolition of the Continental Army has always been an important discussion item in Congress. The analysis of both sides is very large. Mr. Adams hopes to reduce the number of people and improve combat power through reorganization, and Mr. Jefferson hopes to completely cancel the establishment of the Continental Army. The National Guard controlled by the states The team takes on the job of homeland defense.

Lorraine raised his eyebrows: Competing for military power?

Feel incomprehensible?

Confederate thinking, it's not incomprehensible, but the central government's authority is so weak that it's beyond my expectations.

When the wine was served, Lorraine casually pushed it across the coffee table. Hamilton caught it very naturally and nodded his thanks to Monica.

The Federalists have been committed to forming a strong central government, so it is impossible for us to give up the army. But now the tone of Congress is indeed more biased towards the state capital, and reductions are imperative. The key is how much can be retained.

A support war to give back to the Spanish allies is a good stage to demonstrate the value of the Continental Army. Hamilton knocked on the table, I have a proposal, you take the initiative to bear the military expenses, and I will persuade Miami to bear the supplies, and we will bear the pension. As long as you nod , I am confident that I will get the authorization from Congress within half a month, and at least two grenadier regiments can be transferred, how about it?

It's not good. Lorraine crossed his legs. The United States' participation in the war will not bring me any benefits. In fact, if the friendship between us is not considered, the appearance of the Continental Army in Miami will only bring trouble.

Not so? Hamilton opened his mouth,

The three tribes besieging Miami are all well-known tribal alliances in Florida, with a total population of more than 300,000. Although they have not reached the point of general mobilization, as the losses increase...

There will be no general mobilization. Lorraine raised his glass slowly and took a sip, What Miami wants to show the world is her safety, not her luck, so the war will end before both sides can bear it, and there will be no general mobilization .”

Hamilton was inexplicably shocked: Kenway, you are crazy.

Guiding the emotions of all parties in a direction that is beneficial to me is the most basic business consideration, and it is my duty. I am not a warmonger, and I really can't afford your praise. Besides, don't you plan to use the war to retain the army? ? You are not qualified to say me.

That seems to be right...

By the way. Lorraine put down his glass, You're here this time, don't tell me?

Mr. President's itinerary is set. He will visit Boston on April 10th and will stay there for three days. The President's Security Office agrees in principle to take the Valkyrie for Mr. President, but they have conditions. Except you, all Valkyrie crew members Both must be replaced by the Navy and the Security Service, and I think this condition is acceptable.

I don't think so. Lorraine answered immediately without thinking. Sailors call the ship her, and their own ship is like their own woman. No matter how lucrative the profit is, there is no reason to give it with both hands.

But you're still on board, aren't you? If you ask, I can fight for you to retain the title of captain.

I don't need a title. Lorraine refused. If you are worried about Mr. President's safety, the President can carry the entourage within the scope allowed by Valkyrie. The maximum capacity is 20 people.

I will not give up control of the ship. If you don't want to, please go to Boston in your own sampan.

Hamilton's face was full of black lines: Lorraine, you know this is difficult to communicate!

Alexander, you can give up completely.

Military power and financial power are the foundation of a strong government and my lifelong pursuit. How could I give up!

Then please persuade them to make concessions. Lorraine puffed her chest and vowed, Don't forget, if our memorandum is approved by the US Congress, I will become a core member of the Mint Committee and a major shareholder of the First Bank.

As the purse of America's future, I demand trust, and rightfully so.

...

The cruelty of war is taken for granted.

The Indians in front of them receded like the tide, and the desolate grassland that had been burned several times was only left with gunpowder smoke and corpses against the setting sun.

The mayor of Dipuyani heard the order from the flag to step forward, which means that the front line has received a request from the Indians to clean up the battlefield. Another day of fighting is over. Next, the battlefield belongs to the laborers of both sides.

Captain Ayami, let the third company and the fourth company take over the defense in an orderly manner, and complete the defense change within one hour within the time limit, and the eighth company and the tenth company will be the second echelon.

Yes, sir!

Cleaning the battlefield is an absolute peaceful time on the battlefield, representing the brilliance of humanity and civilization. For example, it is the best time for defenders to change their defenses.

It's actually pretty amazing.

Obviously there is no promotion by strong power, and there is no costly punishment for violations, but it is implemented very well, regardless of culture and self-cultivation, and wars all over the world recognize its rationality. Like the Siege of Miami, the offensive and defensive sides are close The battlefield here is still victorious.

Objective reasons are naturally its main cause.

For example, the grassland as a battlefield is the land where both sides live together. If it burns, it will bring troubles to future life, so the work of fire fighting must be timely.

Another example is that in the warm and humid spring, corpses are easy to rot and deteriorate, breeding plague. In order for soldiers to die in as healthy a state as possible, corpse collection must also be done in a timely manner.

All in all, maintaining restraint during the cleaning of the battlefield is a common and recognized obligation of both the attacker and the defender, and no one has a reason to break it. The commander also needs time to relax and adjust his state.

The changing of the guard was completed in less than half an hour. Dipuyani looked at the hard-working civilians on the battlefield with a complicated expression, and sighed with emotion.

Captain Ayami, is today...the 15th day?

The first battle was on January 26, and today is February 11. There are still 3 days before St. Warren's Day. To be precise, it is the 16th day of the war.

So it's almost St. Warren's Day...

St. Warren's Day is Valentine's Day. In the 3rd century AD, the Roman Empire was in full-blown crisis.

The economy is in decline, the government is corrupt, the society is in turmoil, and the people are rebelling one after another.

In order to maintain their rule, the aristocracy used brutal means to suppress the people and Christians.

At that time, Valentine, a believer, was arrested and imprisoned during the suppression.

In prison, he did not sing piously to God, but spent most of his energy on the warden's young and beautiful daughter.

It's hard to say why the warden's beautiful young daughter had a reason for being in and out of prison, but the story goes that they did fall in love. Valentine and the warden's daughter love each other, and in prison, the lover Christian received meticulous care from the lady.

But the good times will come to an end after all.

One day, the ruling class ordered Valentine to be executed. Before his execution, he wrote a long suicide note to the warden's daughter, expressing his upright heart and deep love for the warden's daughter, and by the way, he mentioned that he was innocent.

The love letter was handed over to the warden's daughter without any censorship like most letters.

On February 14, 270 AD, Valentine was officially executed. In order to commemorate his deeds of sacrificing himself for justice and pure love, Christians designated the day of his execution as St. Valentin's Day. Called Valentine's Day.

Dipuyani laughed helplessly: Recently, I have been focusing on the war, and I actually forgot such an important day...

Commander, do you want to prepare roses for you in advance? I think if it's just Valentine's Day, you can go back to accompany Madam...

I can go back, but the soldiers can't go back? Dipuyani shook his head, The soldiers are homesick, and the morale of the army has been low these days, even the civilian men who carry the corpses... ...

Those civilians... Captain Amiya hesitated to speak.

What's wrong with the man?

A few days ago, the Drake Chamber of Commerce cashed in the first salary for the folk husbands. I heard that not only the eight anise gold coins were agreed, but the folk husbands also received letters from their families, especially those who performed well. Educational vouchers for Lake School.

Educational vouchers?

It is equivalent to a scholarship dedicated to Drake School, which can be exchanged for a student's three-year tuition and miscellaneous expenses, including living allowances.

Dipuyani gritted his teeth when he heard this: Our soldiers are bleeding on the front line, but the Drake Chamber of Commerce has not forgotten to buy people's hearts! What do I want the militia they organized?

It's still a refusal. Captain Amiya's expression was a bit strange, But the Baishang Association headed by Drake provided a batch of ordnance for the line corps stationed at the river mouth. After arming, the line corps has already It has reached the standard of the Grenadier Regiment, but the training can't keep up for a while, so...

Bring up the Line Corps... Dipuyani lowered his head dejectedly, The lack of training should be made up for by actual combat. The Indians have recently increased their troops. With only the Grenadier Corps, our blood will be drained quickly. .”

Commander, if the Line Corps is brought up, if the Indians make a detour, what will happen to the defense of the Estuary?

Didn't Lorraine Drake say that his army would guard the property of the Drake Chamber of Commerce? The industry belonging to Drake in Miami is not limited to Jackdaws and Academy, and there is also a large Drake community in the Estuary District.

Leave the defense there to him! Right now, we need to focus on victory without distraction, and we can't care about anything else.
