Section 887 A semi-legendary pirate

Yankee Ghani has a lot of plans and plans to take advantage of the "galleon trade routes".

Every spring, Spanish galleons carry silver from Mexico in the Americas across the Pacific Ocean to Manila in Luzon, Asia, and sail directly with the ocean currents to reach Manila in just three months.

In almost the same season, Chinese sailing ships sailed from China to Manila laden with sugar, tobacco, wine, silk, cotton, tea, porcelain, gunpowder, sulfur, steel, iron, mercury, copper, flour, chestnuts, walnuts, biscuits, seaweed, textiles, desks, and other curiosities, ready to trade with Spanish merchants.

In addition to Chinese goods, there are also goods from India, Persia, Japan and other countries gathered in Manila.

The Spanish galleon shipped silver into Manila, and the two sides handed over silver and delivered the goods with one hand.

Manila galleons carrying a large number of goods (PS: It is the Chinese who are responsible for packing on the ship, and the Chinese have an incredible ability to maximize every inch of space on board, and no other ethnic group can compare with the Chinese!) Every June, the southwest monsoon sets sail north from Manila, and travels eastward along the "Kuroshio" in the North Pacific Ocean to the port of Acapulco in the Americas, traveling more than 10,000 nautical miles and lasting about six months.

Now Yankee Garney came to Luzon first, although Luzon now has patrol ships from the southeast province, but Luzon is so big, the whiteskins have their own secret supply points that are not known to the Chinese.

After being repaired and resupplied, the Golden Deer traveled eastward along the Kuroshio in time to reach the Americas.

He sailed along the Americas, passing Cape Horn, and continuing along the Americas, crossing the Atlantic Ocean and returning to Europe.

At this time, due to the impact of the war with the southeastern province in Europe, the volume of spice trade was greatly reduced, and the price soared, and the Golden Deer put the spices at public auction in the London trade market, and the quality of his spices was also very good, selling a full 50,000 pounds!

Price description: British pound is also called gold pound, very valuable, at that time the British first-class battleships cost as much as 100,000 pounds each, and the British Royal Navy only had about 10 in active service; The sixth-class cruisers cost £10,000 each.

In other words, Yankee Ghani took the risk this time and got back half a first-class battleship or five sixth-class cruisers!

With his first-class sailing skills and prudent attitude, Yankee Garney did not fight a single battle with anyone on this ship, did not kill a single person, did not die a single person on board, did not suffer any damage, and escaped with his whole body, earning a full port, which is a miracle and a legend!

He said it was the Lord's blessing! It is also the blessing of Drake's spirit in the sky.

However, other pirates did not have such good luck as him, although they asked Xiao Ye for protection, hundreds of red-haired ships that entered Southeast Asia, under the joint efforts of the military and civilians in the southeast province, more than 90 ships were sunk or captured, most of the white skins died, the captured were captured, and there were very few white skins who could grab money to return to their hometown in Europe.

A few years later, when bilateral trade reopened, Yankee Ghani returned to the Indian Ocean and returned to trade with China after learning that the Chinese had been dismissed from the previous events in Somalia.

In Java, he happened to meet Chinese from Obi Island, and the two sides came into contact, and the Chinese of Obi Island demanded compensation from him.

A silver dollar!

Symbolic reparation, as an attribution to the Chinese in Obi Island.

Yankee Garney was reluctant to give more, while the Chinese laughed, declining his offer and thanking him for not killing.

"People are the most important thing, you didn't cause us any damage, and those spices were given to you!" The Chinese say that their lives are very rich, and they can't spend all the money, and as long as they are there, they can earn it later when they are gone, and if they are gone, they will have nothing.

"You made the best choice, and we made the best choice!" The Chinese said: "Bless you and ours, it is not your lord, but Mazu Niangniang!" ”

Obi Island Chinese said so, Yankee Ghani suddenly realized!

Yes, bless him, it turned out to be Mazu Niangniang, he remembered that on his Golden Deer, several red-haired senior seafarers believed in Mazu Niangniang!

Those crew members are extremely realistic, they worship gods wherever they go, especially powerful gods, Mazu Niangniang's influence is so great, they also believe it.

So when he said that he would not go to war, those who were blessed by Mazu Niangniang did not object, but other red-haired fans who were encouraged by Xiao Ye may not.

Yankee Ghani also believes in Mazu Niangniang!

He is the biggest legend, while Dutchman Andrew van Jones is half a legend.

Almost a year after the war, close to the Spring Festival and New Year, this guy single-handedly took on the Rising Sun City!

It was the twenty-eighth year of the year, and when the busy morning of the Rising Sun City was about to begin, a red-haired armed merchant ship named "Saudi Shef" suddenly appeared, whether it was the cruisers and cruisers on the periphery of the Southeast Fleet, the anti-smuggling ships in the coastal waters, and the coast guard patrol ships, all of which were missed, so that it drove straight into the most prosperous outer harbor of the Rising Sun City, causing the people to scream!

"Saudi Shef" opened fire on the Bund!

In fact, it was only a 10-minute cannon shot, and hundreds of solid bullets were fired at the high-rise buildings on the Bund.

Instead of using shotguns to attack the crowd, he only hit buildings, causing brick walls to burst, glass to scatter like crystal, and billboards to collapse like a typhoon.

Then the "Saudi Shef" opened fire and ran away, and almost let it run away.

It was not easy for the sail warship to start, and it often had to be paddled or tuged in the harbor, which made the officers and men of the Southeast Fleet anxious.

The "Shef Saud" rushed out to the open sea, and several ships failed to leave it behind, but were intercepted by it.

In an emergency, the passing merchant ship, the 300-ton "Jinshan 105", fearlessly crashed into the "Saudi Shef" and stopped it!

The Chinese warships surrounded the "Saudi Shef", and the crew was captured.

After investigation, the captain of the ship was Andrew, and after careful inspection, more than a dozen people were injured on the Bund, but no one died.

The economic losses were insignificant, but they caused many officials of the navy, coast guard, and customs to be frustrated, and even the commander of the Southeast Fleet, Hong Xu, was given a major demerit and a knighthood.

Ask Andrew why he is so bold, don't you know that this is the Longtan Tiger's Den?

The red-haired fan said that he was an adventurer who had traveled through three oceans and five continents, climbed Mont Blanc (4,810 meters above sea level), the highest peak in the Alps, conquered the Amazon River by boat, and fished for piranhas and crocodiles!

His most recent feat was cascading down Niagara Falls in the Americas!

Niagara Falls is located on the border of Ontario (Canada) and New York (USA), which was occupied by the Dutch from 1609 and named New Amsterdam.

The water of the Niagara River rushes down the cliff to the downstream to rejoin, and in the less than 2 kilometers of the river, it slumps at a speed of 35.4 kilometers per hour and falls down 15.8 meters, deducing the world's wildest whirlpool rapids, due to the large volume of water, it really rushes straight down with thunder and waves, splashing waves and water vapor, sometimes as high as more than 100 meters!

Sitting in a barrel and drifting down the falls, he rushed through the "Devil's Cave Rapids" and followed the last "Leviston Tributary Canyon" from west to east into Lake Ontario.

After successfully conquering Niagara Falls, he feels that life is meaningless and wants to challenge new heights, and he bets that he can get in and out of the Rising Sun City!

It's a pity that it didn't work, he looked like he didn't care if he wanted to kill or chop, the Chinese peeked, he X, it turned out to be a madman, which made the Chinese people cry and laugh!

He almost succeeded, and if his ship hadn't been hit and stopped, and his ship had the upper hand, it would have been possible to escape and play a new legend!

Since there were no dead people, the magnanimous Chinese sentenced him to five years' hard labor, three years' hard labor for the crew, and confiscation of the ship.

Andrew Van Jones was not bad, not long after serving his sentence, he met the return of the Chinese leader and granted amnesty to Southeast Asia, he got an amnesty, made the best use of the people, was hired by the Chinese, went to India to explore, and drew a map for the Chinese!
