Time is the most diligent and just god in the world, and no matter where the person he cares is, he will not stop the pendulum and let everything stand still.

On 6 June, while the towing of the wounded ship was still slowly circling the coast of Barbados, Fort-de-France received credible information that a mixed fleet of seven ships was resting in Port St. George's on the island of Grenada.

Judging by the bow markings, it is almost certainly the Halloween fleet that led the Le François tragedy.

This information completely detonated the anger and panic of the Franco-Dutch combined fleet.

Judging from the situation on the battlefield, the conflict between the two fleets on the edge is intensifying day by day. Recently, there have been a series of skirmishes, and on the day of the most intense fighting, there were three reports of the war.

This means that the distance between the main fleets of the two sides is already close at hand.

Like two hurricanes moving in opposite directions, the closer the center of the air mass is, the stronger the turbulence of the cyclone.

The final decisive battle has reached the stage of gaining momentum, and according to the map of the French and Dutch staffs, it is very likely that the main British force will wander within 100 kilometers west of Grenada.

And at this time, the evil and undoubtedly powerful force of the Halloween Fleet suddenly entered Port St. George, like a jackal serving on the side of the battlefield of two lions.

What does it want to do?

Or think deeper, Peter. Parker, what is this cunning Englishman trying to do?

Fort-de-France urgently began a second round of calculations, and it was soon concluded that the Halloween fleet would break through the outer line with the loss of two or three ships, and enter the battlefield at the most vulnerable moment of the collapse of the battle columns on both sides.

The Andean 24-pounder guns would be a formidable weapon of battle, and with the escort of the Jupiter and the Golden Deer, it would be difficult for the stalemate combined fleet to make an effective containment.

This is an ambush that can change the outcome of the battlefield!

The results of this exercise were soon reported to the Glory, the general flagship of the Combined Fleet, and Vice Admiral Ramon, Admiral of the New World Fleet and Admiral of the Combined Franco-Dutch Fleet, immediately convened a meeting at the highest level to fully verify the reliability of the Fort-de-France case with the fleet's staff officers as the team.

As a result, there is no second to.

The staff officers and senior officers of the fleet generally believed that under the realistic situation that the two sides were equal in strength and did not have absolute intelligence superiority over each other, the possibility of separating victory and defeat through fixed-point artillery battles in a stable battle time was almost zero.

This [stable battle time] is six hours for a top maritime power like Britain and France.

Manpower is exhausted, long-term intense and meticulous micro-manipulation is a serious destruction of the sailor's energy, although its endurance and concentration can be improved through training, but there is always its limit.

Once it exceeds six hours, the influence of objective factors such as wind direction, sail surface, center of gravity, and ocean currents on the attitude of the hull will become more and more prominent.

In order to maintain the offensive posture, the commander had no choice but to break up the battle columns and seek short-handed movement warfare and broadside warfare.

This is the moment when a single ship has the weakest combat power against the formation, and the suppression is so great that it is enough for the third-level ship to capsize in the gutter in the battle with the plural fifth.

Not to mention, the Halloween fleet also has the presence of the Andes armed with a twenty-four-pounder gun!

The commanders of the Combined Fleet suddenly discovered that Halloween, which had annexed the Defence Fleet, was no longer just a skumn to the hatred of the French, it had escalated into a real threat, and its elimination had become an urgent issue for the entire Combined Fleet, and there was no delay for a moment.

"The victims of Le François must be avenged before the decisive battle!" Someone raised a new issue at the table.

His reason was very good, the Combined Fleet was far superior to the Parker fleet in terms of morale and combat strength. Parker was defeated, and the Halloween fleet, deprived of the Admiral, was bound to flee far away, perhaps fleeing back to England.

At that point, it will be too late to avenge the soul of Le François, and once the British reorganize the fleet, the tragedy of Le François will become a headless public case, and there will be no possibility of revenge!

A strong sense of mission filled the hearts of the gentlemen present, who stood for justice and whose deeds would be blessed by God.

A conspiracy against Grenada began.

On June 8, Fort-de-France announced that the combined Franco-Dutch fleet would go to Le François to mourn the dead in the capacity of representatives of the colonial government of the New World of France.

On 9 June, in response to the colonial government's declaration, the Army moved ahead of the Navy.

Two regiments of the Martinique garrison and the newly organized People's Army marched out of the heavily fortified Fort-de-France line, singing a war song of revenge, towards the area of the Pere volcano in the north of the island.

Before that, the big black Sander who was on the docks on the night of the tragedy had disappeared without warning, and Chalamon had gone through all the broken corpses with his own hands, no one alive or dead.

The slave army suddenly changed from a dual-core to a single-core.

Rachamon was weak, far from the decisiveness of his companions, and could not bear the burden of an entire slave army.

He retreated, and before he could leave Le François, he quietly gave up on his dream of statehood, leading his demoralized followers all the way north to the indefendable Mount Peiré.

In the evening, the Combined Fleet officially departed, assumed the posture of abandoning the decisive battle between Britain and France, crossed the Strait of St. Lucia, and headed north to Martinique along the line between the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic, and marched by sea towards the mountains where the rebels had gathered.

No one noticed that in the dead of night at sea, the revenge fleet that had been formed in response to the tragedy had quietly separated from the home team under the leadership of the flagship Fury.

Heading south at the exit of the St. Lucia Channel, they plunged deep into the heart of the Atlantic, avoiding merchant ships along the way, sailing for four days before appearing unnoticed in the Grenadines Islands, just one day away from Grenada's capital and home to the legendary Halloween fleet.

On 11 June, the land forces went to war with the slave army, and on the outskirts of Saint-Pierre, the slaves, who were not superior in equipment, training, and morale, were retreating.

The defeated, dead or alive, soon fell into the hands of the French and were soon turned into decorations on the cross.

Thousands of crudely made crosses stretch from Saint-Pierre all the way to the heart of the mountains, leading from the beach to the smoky volcanoes, forming a new pathway that the French call the "Road of Loyalty".

On 12 June, the Avenger Fleet raided Port St. George's in Grenada in the early light of day.

Legend has it that the deserted commercial port that should have been filled with the sinful ships of the Halloween fleet had only two or three small fishing boats ready to go to sea......

The pioneers of the island watched in horror as the new 3rd class battleship Fury, which was under the pressure of a mountain, rang the bell before the French could open fire, and simply chose to surrender.

The Battle of the Windward Islands, following the British army's ravage of Martinique's Atlantic coast, led to a high-profile French capture of Grenada.

This is the opening of the death knell in France.

On 13 June, the Combined Fleet, which was sailing comfortably along the Martinique coast, crashed unprepared into the battlefield created by Sir Parker.

The Baspint to Grand-Rivière, a calm offshore route belonging to France, to Martinique, an overseas department of the Kingdom of France.

The Combined Fleet is enjoying the days without worry, enjoying the end of the damned slaves and the damned Halloween fleet while enjoying the damned slaves and the damned Halloween fleet even more than slaves.

They thought they had done a good trick to show the world the muscles of France, but also postponed the decisive battle with the British, using a classic strategic deception to wipe out the Halloween fleet that was enough to be the variable of the decisive battle.

As everyone knows, all of this is just Peter the fox on the sea. Part of Parker's plan, and that's it......
