Chapter 481

Late at night, to be exact, early in the morning, the star looked down at the silent sea, and only a faint yellow starlight floated in the depths of the sea.

The post-war settlement took an unexpectedly long time.

In this war, Lorraine lured 16 black beard teams in the Caribbean with 19 fleets directly under the General Chamber of Commerce, and then involved 31 "local" Pirates led by bonit and the skeleton Bay joint fleet.

The two sides fought for more than four hours in five battalions in the narrow waters off baster island. Finally, with valkiri's undisputed victory over Queen Anne's revenge, the direct fleet won the final victory.

This victory can only be called a narrow victory.

The direct fleet suffered huge damage. A total of one brig type ship and two brig Ting ships were sunk in the battle, the Galen type yarvi was extremely broken, the grey type was broken, and two brig type ships and brig entin were broken respectively. 261 people were killed, 179 seriously injured, and 72 people were determined to be disabled.

Katrina dipo, the shareholder of the General Chamber of Commerce, the first deputy commander of the fleet directly under the General Chamber of Commerce and the first chief officer of the general flagship, is in danger; The shareholder of the General Chamber of Commerce, the captain of the direct fleet charge, the captain of the flagship charge and the first boatswain, Lev Eriksson, is in danger.

Of course, the harvest is also huge.

The direct fleet sank two Galen type destroyers, four brigantin type destroyers and three skuna type destroyers in this battle. The prisoners of war were specially changed to the sea fort, the golden yoke, the barg type wandering Fermi, five brigantin and two skuna type destroyers. It was impossible to kill pirates. 1013 people were captured, of which 442 belonged to Blackbeard and 277 were red.

These pirates will be handed over to the Barbados government together with dricky's skilful pirate regiment. They will be tried there, but their fate will not be the same.

According to the colonial government's consistent tolerant style towards pirates, Lorraine estimated that all the skilful pirates who committed blood crimes in Barbados would be hanged. Among the pirates in Blackbeard and skeleton Bay, 106 people in Britain would certainly die, but most of the rest would be pardoned after the trial, issued a piece of land and become farmers in Barbados.

There's nothing wrong with the result.

At this stage of the pirate war, Drake's white pirate flag has established its prestige in the green forest of the Caribbean.

He doesn't need to support a pirate butcher as he did at the beginning. At this stage, a better choice is to use both grace and power, and use false hope to dispel the resistance will of the pirates in the future battle.

This naval battle, which is only similar to the war of association, is a very suitable start.

On the one hand, Drake's attitude can be known to most pirates living in the Caribbean without deliberate publicity. On the other hand, the goodwill of the fake colonial government will not make the Allies confused and make a wrong judgment on Lorraine's position.

"If there were a few more targets, would the publicity effect be better?"

Lorraine leaned against the fence and thought.

The sea was beautiful late at night. The light and soft waves beat the hull, and the broken silver moonlight foil flowed on the top of the waves.

The hatch of the poop opened behind him, and Daniel with a tired face came out with his mask, his face full of dents made of rubber.

"Is the treatment over?" Lorraine asked.

"Barely finished the emergency measures."

"How about Katrina and LEV?"

"You can survive without accidents," Daniel said. "The premise is to transfer to land with better medical conditions as soon as possible."

"What do you suggest?"

"Fort France." Daniel picked up the bottle from the deck and sipped at the mouth. "Brandy?"

"The grape brandy of Armagnac, France, is just an ordinary commodity, far inferior to the Cognac region."

"I can't taste it." Daniel shrugged and put the wine bottle back on the armor plate. "Fort France in Martinique is the center of France's Caribbean region. There are famous families and nobles everywhere. The medical conditions there are no worse than Kingston. Most drugs can be found in the market and are closer to us."

Lorraine thought about it: "Xiangfeng islands office is located in Fort France. It should not be a problem to temporarily arrange a high-standard hospital."

Daniel was stunned: "is Xiangfeng islands office in Fort France? Not in Bridgeton?"

"Chuck's arrangement." Lorraine raised his glass to the direction of New York. "It seems that chuck gave up because he got the preferential treatment of transaction tax at that time and Bridgeton was unwilling to provide equivalent conditions."

"Worthy of being the family member of a senior naval officer, this is the most patriotic choice I have ever heard..."

"I always think you're pointing at the mulberry and scolding the locust." Lorraine rolled his eyes at Daniel. "Then, Mr. doctor, can I visit my patient?"

"You are the captain, you has the final say on the ship."

……

Not long after, Lorraine and Daniel came to the Temporary Senior ward together.

The ward used to be Daniel's ship doctor's room, with two inside and outside. The outside is the alchemy research room called the wizard castle by sailors. Patients can lie inside. Daniel usually lives there.

Different from Lorraine's imagination, the wizard castle was unexpectedly clean, especially all kinds of written materials. It was not full. There was only a corner of the cabin on the desk and bookcase, which was probably stacked one person high.

Seeing Lorraine's strange appearance, Daniel was a little confused.

He said angrily, "if you're looking for a pot with colored smoke, sorry, you should go to the witch's room."

"Noah doesn't play with those dangerous things..." Lorraine deflated his mouth. "I thought you were busy deciphering."

"The decipherment was finished last year," Daniel pointed to three beautifully decorated leather letters on the table. "This year is mainly for annotation, so as not to misread the specific nouns when necessary."

Another accident.

Lorraine went over to open the letter and saw the dense Junxiu handwriting on it: "have you got anything?"

"There is nothing substantial. I mean, these materials may enable us to successfully complete the exploration, but first, we need to know where the fountain of youth is."

Lorraine tilted his head: "so we still need the help of the pirate emperor?"

Daniel nodded vigorously: "we have only five of the 22 keepsakes in our hands, which is far from completing the puzzle."

He's talking about rumors about Morgan's treasure. It is said that Captain Morgan hid his huge wealth in Bulao spring, and divided the chart of Bulao spring into 22 parts, which was used as a keepsake for the pirate kings.

But

"With the five keepsakes now, we don't even know what the pattern on the map is. We only know that it is very different from a normal chart."

"Combined with the fact that Morgan has descendants alive, but the pirates have never made the idea of the last keepsake, I prefer that Morgan's rumor is false, which is a conspiracy of the maritime Brotherhood to rule the pirates."

"If you want to judge whether it's a conspiracy, you have to find more keepsakes first."

"Standard war maniacs speak." Lorraine sighed and closed his letter. "Daniel, war is a monster that devours human life. It's not something a good doctor should consider."

"I have my own reason to ignore human life." Daniel looked at Lorraine coldly. "Aren't you going to see a doctor? Come with me."
