Shortly after the Seagull docked in the port of Las Palmas, the Marquis of St. Cos received information from Lofe that Barbarodin's pirate fleet was docked in Madeira.

But after a few days of sailing, the Spanish fleet was well replenished at Las Palmas. Luo Fei also sold all the furs on the ship here, but did not buy the local fish and coconut oil. He explained to the crew that Madeira also had these things, and it would not make any money to ship them there, so it was better to go directly to Madeira to buy wine and sell it back to Lisbon.

After that, the fleet headed for Madeira, and by the time they arrived, Barbarodin's five pirate ships had already sailed away.

However, the testimony of local residents undoubtedly proved the accuracy of Luo Fei's previous intelligence. The Marquis of St. Cos, who was a little remorseful, had to humbly ask Luo Fei this time if he had left the latest code in Madeira.

"Yes." After being called, Luo Fei told the Marquis of St. Cos: "Barbarodin intends to hide about 50 nautical miles northeast of Madeira, on the route to Ceuta, he plans to rob a merchant ship from Ceuta to this place, and then detain some of the people, release some of them, and let the released people come to you for help, while he swaggers back to the Greek seas, so that you can't pursue them." ”

"How dare he be so arrogant!" Enraged, the Marquis of St. Cos slammed the table with his right fist, and the glass on the table was so shaken that it jumped to the ground, but it did not fall to the ground.

"I suggest that you immediately lead your fleet to clear the way, and if Barbarodin has looted the merchant ships that have come here to trade before you arrive, I am afraid that you will return to Greece, and it will be too late to catch up!" Seeing that the Marquis of St. Cos was enraged, Luo Fei immediately suggested to him.

"I'm afraid that Barbarodin's fanatic will only brag, once the fleet I lead is discovered by him, he will flee in the wilderness, and the pursuit will not be so easy!" The Marquis of St. Cos, who owned ten large warships, didn't take Barbarodin seriously at all, but he was a little worried that his ship was not as fast as a pirate ship, knowing that the pirate ship that lived by plundering was designed to be light and fast.

Because in naval warfare, they could not fight at all in the national fleet with stronger firepower than them, and against extremely weakly armed merchant ships, as long as they had a few guns, and then chased into the range of the artillery, they could do it!

"You can send some soldiers on my ship, in order to defeat them, this time in this sea, the cargo hold of my ship has already been vacated." Luo Fei had expected that the Marquis of St. Cos might have such troubles, so he hurriedly took the initiative to suggest to him.

"Vacated the cargo hold?" After being stunned for a moment, the Marquis of St. Cos squinted his eyes slightly, and said to Luo Fei in a meaningful tone: "It seems that you have premeditated this method!" ”

"I did this just to save my friend as soon as possible." Luo Fei looked directly into the eyes of the Marquis of St. Cos, trying to show himself extremely sincerely.

"Okay!" The Marquis of St. Cos smiled indifferently: "Anyway, even if you have other intentions, my ten warships and two thousand navies can immediately clean you up." ”

The Marquis of St. Cos stood up, slapped Luo Fei on the shoulder twice, and called the messenger outside the door to come in, asking him to call his adjutant to come over.

When the shrewd and capable young lieutenant arrived, the Marquis of St. Cos ordered the swordsman, who had been awarded the title of baron at the age of thirty-five, to lead two hundred naval soldiers into the cargo hold of the Seagull, which used the Seagull as bait to sail 50 nautical miles northeast of Madeira.

And the Marquis of St. Cos himself will personally lead ten warships of the Spanish Navy to the target sea area at the speed of the Seagull an hour later!

"Baron Franco, according to Loffei, Barbarodin would like to show off his strength when facing a weak merchant ship. And your mission is to trap the Seagull after Barbarodin and the pirates come aboard the ship with the pirates! Until I arrive with a fleet and wipe out these arrogant pirates!! The Marquis of Saint-Cos gave an order to Baron Franco.

"Yes, Marquis! I will definitely complete the mission!! "Baron Franco gave the most solemn assurances to the Marquis of St. Cos.

However, when Luo Fei brought Baron Franco and two hundred Spanish navies to the Seagull and announced the next mission of the Seagull, it was opposed by almost all the crew led by Oliver!

"We're all ordinary people who just want to make some money, and we have families waiting in Lisbon for us to get back safely!" Oliver was very angry and shouted at Luo Fei: "You can't, and you don't have the right to do this to us!" ”

"Less nonsense! With us here, you don't need to fight at all, you just need to sail to find Barbarodin, and then when we fight, cowardly hide in the cabin! "Baron Franco has served in the navy for a long time, and he has always seen only the orders of the strong and the obedience of the weak. At this time, seeing that these crew members were afraid, they immediately made a decision on their behalf of Luo Fei.

"I'm sorry!" Even if the other party was just an NPC in the game script, at this moment, Luo Fei still couldn't force Oliver to carry out this plan.

"If you agree to help, I promise to pay you ten times your salary today!" Luo Fei gritted his teeth and offered the crew a sky-high price under the protection of the navy.

"We don't want money! We just need to be safe to live!! Oliver, who had the highest salary and the richest in the crew, immediately rejected Luo Fei's offer to increase the price.

He turned back to the young crew and said, "There are no less than 500 pirates under Barbarodin's command, and if he finds 200 Spanish naval officers on board, he will definitely order the pirates from the other four pirate ships to reinforce them at once!" If they can wipe out the navy on the Seagull before the Spanish fleet arrives, we will all be lambs to the slaughter!! ”

"You think our Spanish navy is so vulnerable?" Baron Franco was furious when he heard this, and regardless of Luo Fei's attempt to continue to persuade the crew, he immediately ordered his soldiers: "Tie up this old guy and throw him into the cargo hold, and everyone else who disobeys will be treated equally!" ”

As a result, Vitas, the helmsman who was introduced to Luo Fei by Oliver, and Yurilan, the lookout, took the initiative to accept this treatment.

Only the white-bearded surveyor, Herami, perhaps because of his experience, accepted the arrangement of the Spanish Navy and continued to guide the course of the Seagull on board.

"I'm really sorry, but I really need to do it." When Oliver and the others were tied away from Luo Fei and escorted to the cabin together, Luo Fei said to them very apologetically.

"All of this has been planned since you learned that the Spanish Navy was coming here to exterminate pirates, right?" Oliver, who was trapped, asked.

"I'm sorry again." Facing Oliver's hateful gaze, Luo Fei turned around uncomfortably, not daring to look at Oliver again.
