The rose war began.

Lieutenant general linggus, a slave ship owner, designed an extremely magnificent battle plan.

At the beginning of May, all 12 sub fleet troops of the fleet advanced to the five islands of the greater Bahamas, greater Abaco, Carter, San Salvador and Mayaguana in five ways, sweeping the Bahamas like a tsunami.

Bing Feng approached, and the pirate Empire without Blackbeard fell into unprecedented despair.

At this time, pavlomus stood up, and Leonardo, the former Black Prince, stood up. Without hesitation, he handed over the fleet he had worked hard to revive to the only pirate king in the Empire.

The disintegrated pirates suddenly found their backbone. In only seven days, they assembled 350 warships of all colors and established a huge defense line around half of the Bahamas with Nassau as the center.

On May 17, the second warship cluster led by prenditt met the enemy outside the atoll belt 70 kilometers north of grand Abaco island.

Leonardo commanded a fleet composed of three big pirates and more than a dozen small pirates and launched a suicide attack on prendet by relying on a heavy rain.

This battle let the world see the return of the black prince.

The fearless Leonardo drove his flagship and collided with the flagship of the prenditt chamber of Commerce from the bags of more than a dozen warships. The second cluster lost its command within an hour of the war, and van Royle prenditt escaped by jumping into the sea.

The second cluster was defeated.

Most of the 68 warships withdrew from the battlefield, and 19 warships were intercepted on the battlefield. More than 400 people were killed, more than 200 people were missing, and the remaining 1000 people were collectively executed by crazy pirates in the atoll.

Then on May 18, the fourth and Fifth Fleet clusters were attacked respectively. The fifth cluster turned into port au Prince after paying a small price, and the fourth cluster won the first big victory of the Crusade fleet.

This victory came naturally, because the core combat power of the fourth cluster was Drake's direct fleet, and bell judia, who had performed well in the naval battle of the Virgin Islands, commanded valkiri.

Bell continued his usual free and loose fighting style.

Seeing the pirate attack from a distance, his first order was to leave the coordination and mobilization of the affiliated ninth and tenth fleets to Katrina's wife, and his second order was to leave the command of the directly affiliated fleet to pierce.

The third way

There is no third command.

As soon as the two orders passed, bell personally drove valkiri to a group of pirate ships that didn't even have a class five Galen.

However, even though the strength of the two sides was very different, and even though bell fully developed the ruling combat power of valkiri and the directly subordinate fleet, the battle was not won simply.

The pirates, mainly brigantin, mixed with a small number of barges, did not lose their hands. The whole battle was fought intermittently for four days and three nights. When the remaining pirates retreated in panic, the fourth group had completely exhausted their efforts.

When he sank and captured 57 ships, injured 15 ships and sank 6 ships, bell felt that he should be worthy of the low commission given by the Americans, so he sent a ship to inform Lingus and turned to St. Dana for repair with his own group.

It was on May 22. Bell, who was driving on his way back, did not know that the third cluster deep into Carter Island encountered a crisis of extinction.

Pavlomoub laid a big net.

He released a lot of false news to make lieutenant general Lingus believe that the pirates are concentrating all their forces and preparing to destroy the long island fleet, the only representative of the United States in this war, and fundamentally end the war before the five clusters surround Nassau.

It is said that this hunting team includes the four fleets of the black Baron regiment and the remaining evils of the Blackbeard regiment, with a fleet scale of 170.

Lieutenant general linggus was frightened three times a day. While secretly regretting his majestic "grand strategy", he repeatedly sent scouts to expand the warning range to a meaningless 80km.

The first cluster with hardware strength second only to Drake lags far behind in travel speed.

When the second, fourth and fifth clusters gave up their original plans, and the third cluster arrived at Carter Island, lieutenant general Lingus drove past Charleston, 200 kilometers away from the Grand Bahamas

As a result, the third cluster was really surrounded by the hunting team.

During the naval battle on Carter Island, pavlomou commanded 173 ships of the black Baron regiment and the former Blackbeard regiment to completely surround 62 ships of the fifth, seventh and eighth sub fleets of the third cluster led by dukov in the triangular sea area between Carter Island, San Salvador Island and Long Island (belonging to the Bahamas).

IL Wei dukov, the fourth son of old dukov, was killed in battle for two days and nights. Only four ships belonging to the cluster broke through.

After the battle of Abaco, the Crusade fleet met another defeat.

Pavlomus destroyed lieutenant general Lingus' super strategy with an indisputable victory, and destroyed lieutenant general Lingus' prestige at the same time.

Led by old dukov, who suffered the tragic loss of his son, employers' chambers of Commerce have made solemn protests to the land headquarters on West Palm Beach Island.

The protest letter flew to Admiral Devis like a snowflake. Each wanted to investigate the command responsibility of lieutenant general linggs, and each wanted to comfort the spirits of thousands of dead souls with linggs' blood.

In contrast, lieutenant general linggus, the first group did not encounter any enemies on the way, but received the news of Bell's victory, prenditt's defeat and little dukov's death.

He keenly smelled the biggest crisis in his military career from these war reports.

In order to save his political life, he ordered the cluster to give up the original battle plan and turn to Miami Beach for repair under the leadership of the constitution. At the same time, he left the team on the flagship America and ran back to New York under the escort of the Maryland and Massachusetts.

He went directly to Washington and, before the accusations of West Palm Beach arrived, put the responsibility for the defeat on Bell who gave up the war without authorization.

As always, the main stage of war once again easily jumped out of the war itself.

In West Palm Beach, hundreds of people gathered around the landing headquarters to petition for the shooting of Lingus. In New York, Lingus's political allies made vicious remarks to bell, as if Nassau would be readily available as long as the tired division went south as planned.

The boring farce was played for more than a month. Until the evening of July 7, Lorraine, who had visited the planetarium, was drinking tea with Haina, Carmen and Noah, who were also absent from the war. Suddenly, he received the request of count concesan to meet.

……

Lorraine slowly adjusted the milk tea in front of him, raised his head and looked at the cramped count, lowered his head before laughing, and continued to observe the wonderful combination of milk and tea.

Lorraine has done this for five minutes, far more than normal mixing needs.

The count knew that Lorraine was taking the opportunity to laugh at his weak position. As the executive director of the hundred business association, he was ready to help the Americans just because of the unknown title of deputy chief of staff

But... Does it really make him abandon his responsibility?

If he is not prepared to perform the duties of deputy chief of staff, why should he accept this noble appointment?

The count secretly clenched his fist: "little Drake?"

"Mr. count, when the hundred business association was founded, do you know why we mercenary guys had to invite you to serve as our executive chairman?"

"Er... Dukov said last time because you didn't trust each other at that time."

"At that time, we really didn't trust each other." Lorraine was noncommittal, "but to be honest, we don't trust each other much now. We cooperate and form an alliance, but we never expect to place our lives on each other. This is the friendship of businessmen."

"And you are different."

"You are a truly noble person. We investigated your past before contacting you, and found that you have betrayed your family, betrayed your friends and betrayed your relatives and students, but you have never betrayed your conscience."

"You are an incredible person. You live with a special stubbornness that we and even most people can't understand. The more you live, the better. The more you live, the more respected and respected you are."

"You made us believe that people's hearts are good, and we hope that baishang associated press can also be good, so we chose you."

Kong saisan was a little stunned: "didn't you trust each other at that time?"

"As I said, we don't trust now, but that doesn't prevent us from cooperating closely."

Lorraine pushed away the cold tea and crossed his legs with a smile.

"Count, I know your intention, and I don't care that old dukov lost the favorite of his more than 20 illegitimate children. But I'm sorry I won't recall bell for the unity of the Crusade fleet."

"Lingus is a fool. But his fault is not incompetence, but that he is clearly incompetent and knows nothing about his incompetence."

"He has no ability to bring victory to the United States. Obviously, he has no ability to lead the fleet now. For such a useless waste, even in order to calm the public anger, the Americans should put him in prison."

"At least on this point, you and Mr. general have the same idea." count concesan was pleased. "I also hope to hear from you that Mr. general wants to ask your opinion on the candidate for the post of governor after Lingus is dismissed."

"Lingus's successor..." Lorraine thought for a moment, "I remember that Mr. admiral has a pure Labrador, whose name seems to be Abrahan. In fact, it is very suitable, at least more suitable than anyone in the U.S. Navy."

Concesan opened his mouth: "let a dog be the captain of 200 warships?! little Drake, don't use righteousness!"

"No matter which immortal comes out to testify, my suggestions just now are sincere."

Lorraine raised her hand to swear.

"Count, your Crusade fleet has valkiri, the United States and the constitution, in addition to five fourth class ships, more than 30 fifth class ships."

"What about pavlomus? After the death of the pirate kings, the Pirates of the Caribbean have long been different. Now they are rare goods even the traditional level 5. The so-called pirate joint fleet, Bagh and brigantine are the main force."

"This battle was wrong from the beginning. As long as the commander trusted his subordinates, he could win steadily, without tactics or orders. But the Americans proved that their soldiers could not even do this well."

"Since people can't do well, why don't you try to give it to the dog?"

"... why don't you do it?" concesan didn't find himself swearing at all.

Luckily Lorraine didn't misunderstand.

He just smiled magnanimously and patiently explained, "what Americans want is to be led by them to win the war. It is most important to be led by them. Victory is not important, at least not at all compared with the former."
