0242 Everyone is sacrificing for the sake of justice

Baltimore, Mizukura Meeting Room.

The water silo parlor was originally a strange statement, because the water silo is just a warehouse with its own wet dock or dock in the warehouse, and storage is its main function, and it is obviously not.

But just like the Cherbourg silos, there have been significant renovations, such as the addition of a bank to the street, and a vault under the bank, on which the meeting room was built.

So it's clear that this silo is a real smuggling den.

There were now four people in the drawing room, Colonel Hamilton, a fighter for justice, a short, stocky civilian officer who served as a deputy, a smuggling captain who volunteered to shed his blood for justice, and the captain's beautiful counselor, Ms. Carmen.

They represent the most selfless and noble alliance of freedoms in the world today, working every minute for the freedom and democracy of 3 million people. When it comes to the cause of justice, the conversation between them is naturally tense.

"Mr. Kenway, you said you were the Earl of Galvez's carte blanche freight forwarder, can I know how much of the cargo you control?"

"It seems that you still doubt the Count's trust in me." Lorraine was helpless, "My cargo is mainly guns, including 1,500 Charville rifles per month, 1,000 dragoon pistols, corresponding ammunition and most of the consumables. The main body of the consumables is a military uniform and bandages, as well as a small amount of poppy. Please understand that opium poppy is an excellent painkiller in all natural ways, and neither the Count nor I have any interest in drug trafficking. ”

"I trust the Count's character." Hamilton interface, "No cannons?" ”

"If you have a cannon, it's 100 percent, not 70 percent."

The colonel nodded: "What price?" ”

"The cause of aiding the United States is a cause related to the justice of mankind, and the earl has stated that it cannot charge anything other than the cost, so the price is much lower than the market." Lorraine paused, "The unit price of a rifle is 100 pounds, the unit price of a pistol is 50 pounds, and the monthly shipload of consumables and ammunition is a goodwill of the earl, and we will ship it free of charge, and we will not take a penny." ”

The short and fat civil official snorted coldly: "It's a good one that is lower than the market price, and your price is much higher than before!" ”

"Is it high? If our offer is higher than the market price in Baltimore, you may well abandon our supplies and seek cooperation with someone else. ”

In the confrontation of the deputy seats, Carmen took over as a matter of course, and her voice was full of confidence.

"I beg your pardon for the fashionable nature of the ladies, and while I was just resting, I was able to take in the sights of Baltimore with my female companions on board. Strangely enough, most of the dresses and ornaments here are in the old style of '77, and I haven't seen a single non-military ship on the huge dock. ”

"During the Revolution, the people of the Confederate had no intention of extravagance, but disappointed Madam Carmen, who did not want to give her surname."

The civil official raised his chin proudly.

"As for what you said about changing partners, it's not that we can't do it, it's just that we're worried that it will hurt the feelings of our French friends, which is important because we value friendship."

"Do you value friendship on a depressed dock?"

"Baltimore is the pearl, and on the West Coast, her prosperity is nowhere to be reached."

Carmen laughed contemptuously.

"The United States is not yet at peace, but good politicians are ripe. Unreasonable, sir, you really open your eyes and talk nonsense. ”

"Each other, the lady with the head and tail hidden."

"Carmen!" "Ahem!"

The argument escalated into an argument, with Lorraine and Hamilton speaking out in unison.

Carmen hung her head and feigned guilt, and the stocky official snorted heavily, twisting his head and not speaking again.

The dispute over the resumption, and Hamilton breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Kenway, your counsellor reminds me of another venerable lady."

"It's Mrs. Adams, right? Abigail. Smith. Mrs. Adams, I've heard some of her assertions, and although it's a little idealistic, as a woman, she does have a unique insight. ”

Hamilton apparently hadn't expected to hear the full name of the councillor's wife from a pirate's mouth, and couldn't help but glance at the chunky official in disbelief.

He straightened his mind and carefully worded: "I don't know Mr. Kenway......"

"Didn't think I'd be interested in politics?"

Hamilton only nodded.

Lorraine shook her head and smiled, "I really want to tell you that I got to know you independence fighters because I admired them, but no. ”

"Isn't it?"

"You two gentlemen know about the intelligence traffickers, right?"

This kind of thing is a matter of course.

"Thanks to the valiant and warlike allies of the United States, General Clinton went south to Savannah, south of New York. The two of you may only regard these as the shame of defeat, but for those of us who embrace justice and do not care about gains and losses, the time is ...... It's not the same as it used to be. ”

"From New Orleans to Baltimore, from the time we crossed Grand Bahama, the whole route became a hunting ground for the British, and we were like a pack of rabbits being driven into a pack of wolves, and if we were not careful, we would be devoured by people with leashes and bones."

"You only live once." Lorraine said seriously, "The Lord has given us life, and our parents have raised us to adulthood, and no one wants to die worthless." So I tried to get to know my opponents, probably because the business was worth a lot, and as a giveaway, I got additional information from the Drafting Committee of the Declaration of Independence. ”

A subtle mixture of humiliation and relief, the expressions of Colonel Hamilton and the Humpty Dumpty Officer were a little complicated.

But apparently what is more important at the moment is Lorraine's intelligence feast, and they all want to know what allowed Lorraine to pass through the blockade of the mouth of the bay, which has not been broken through for more than a month, and deliver precious arms to the hands of the Continental Army.

Hamilton swallowed, "Mr. Kenway, who are you talking about?" ”

"You've heard of the Drake family, right?" Lorraine changed the opening, "That famous naval family in England." ”

Hamilton nodded, of course.

"Francis. Drake is their ancestor, a legendary pirate of the Caribbean, who sailed the globe and defeated the Armada, and who was one of the architects of Britain's maritime power, and is still revered today. ”

"His descendants were not simple, and for several generations he held important positions in the navy, and was deeply trusted by the British crown and British people."

"Eliya. Drake, the patriarch of the Drake family, was famous in the Mediterranean, and was known as the lion of the Mediterranean at that time. The Royal Navy tailor-made HMS Lion for him, but unfortunately it was unlucky and collapsed. ”

"His eldest son is now Admiral Shak of the Continental Fleet. Drake. Shaq is the youngest major general among the British active officers, and he is good at regional defense, especially good at strangling the enemy in defense, so he is called the forest snake of the sea. ”

"He is also a master tactician, and his best round formation defense tactics are called [Shaq tactics] by his colleagues, and he can make his name in a conventional formation tactic, which shows his superb skills."

"Elijah also has an illegitimate child, Lorraine. Drake, an unknown maritime merchant. However, I found out that he was the mercenary of the Halloween fleet in the Battle of the Windward Islands, and after the war, his chamber of commerce acquired a fourth-class ship, a fifth-class ship, and two sixth-class ships. ”

"Under what conditions can mercenaries occupy the two captives, right? As a result of this, he captured all of them with a fifth-class ship, and the great France, despite its superiority in all respects, still lost to a privateer merchant, and it was a crushing defeat. ”

"We are fighting against this monster family, gentlemen! The Earl told me that the success rate of the Shoq's defensive tactics was less than 60 percent, and that two-fifths of the American ships were captured or sunk in the process, but that was only a few months ago. ”

"Baltimore has just been helpless for more than a month, and since that famously defensive Drake blocked the mouth of the bay, has there been any other freight merchant who has been lucky enough to get in before me?"

Lorraine let out a deep sigh, stood up, grabbed Carmen and walked out of the room.

Before walking out of the doorway, he stopped and didn't look back.

"In the contact form given to me by the Earl, my contact should be the Honorable Councillor Adams. In that case, please tell him my price. ”

"My crew needs to have a reason to die for America, I need to have a reason to die for justice, and adventurers at sea need to have a reason to challenge the impossible."

"It's time for Americans to reassess the price of human lives, because every gun and bullet you have is bought by freight forwarders for their lives. Please don't think that you are the only ones who are sacrificing, everyone is sacrificing for the sake of justice. ”
