We are disappointed by mistaken beliefs about what appears to be right; I try to write succinctly, but I write obscurely. The pursuit of simplicity, but in terms of muscles and courage, there is a lack of strength. I want to write grandiose, but it turns out to be bloated.

- Horace (founder and founder of Roman classicism)

After discovering this warring fleet, the Shixiu fleet, which was in charge of the outer escort, immediately ordered its trumpeters to blow the piercing and loud emergency trumpet; All the warships that heard the sound of the trumpets also began to blow the trumpets one after the other. This is a common means of communication used by the naval fleet, and the purpose is to allow the entire fleet to receive the signal.

Oscar was still asleep in the room, but the shrill sound of the military horn suddenly woke up the sleeping Oscar; Oscar didn't even have time to react, so he hurriedly got dressed and rushed out of the room. At this time, the entire interior of the warship was empty; Only the sound of hurried footsteps on the deck was a sign that everyone had begun to prepare.

Could it be that it was met with Carthage's fleet in Sicily? It shouldn't be so unlucky, it was rainy last night, how could the Carthaginian fleet choose to set sail at such a time? Oscar, who was confused, did not dare to delay, and immediately ran to the deck; Once on deck, Oscar spotted Anne and Mary standing on the top deck of the Anne.

So, Oscar hurriedly climbed up to the top deck again, and then panted and asked Anne, "Anne, what's wrong?" Why did the fleet blow the trumpet, and did it happen to you? Mary grabbed the panting Oscar, and then replied in place of Anne: "The first to blow the trumpet is the Shixiu fleet in charge of escorting the perimeter, and their flag has not yet been called; The situation is still unclear. ”

Anne also nodded to Oscar after Mary had finished speaking. Expressing his agreement with what Mary had just said; Oscar also relieved at this time. Stand by the handrail on deck. Stand up straight and look into the distance. Soon, Shi Xiu's escort fleet sent back a flag signal; The flag bearer on the Anne also quickly climbed onto the lookout to watch the flag.

According to Shi Xiu's report: At this time, two fighting fleets appeared in front of the fleet less than twenty minutes away; Judging by the flags, both fleets are pirate fleets! The underdog could be the combined fleet of Pirate Kidd and Pirate Roberts, while attacking them could be the combined fleet of Pirate Blackbeard and Pirate Calico Jack!

The disparity in strength between the two sides was huge, with the inferior side having only two trilinear ships and four twin ships, while the attacking side had one each of five trilinear and three riems and nine twin ships! Along with the intelligence, Shi Xiu's inquiry about Oscar, and Shi Xiu didn't know whether he should be involved in the battle between them. It takes Oscar to make a decision.

After Oscar was attacked by Blackbeard and Calico Jack last time, he ordered the Dead of Sorrow to go into a ruthless investigation of the so-called Ten Pirates. Anne and Mary and Shi Xiu were naturally involved in the identity investigation, but the information of these three people did not differ from what they said; Oscar was not mentioned again.

However, the information of other pirates, Oscar still put a lot of painstaking work. Among the top ten pirates, except for Anne and Shi Xiu, who have already taken refuge in him, Morgan, the most powerful, generally does not participate in the robbery of merchant ships, and the Redbeard brothers are real Sicilian pirates, both of which are relatively mysterious.

The other is the most famous pirate Kidd, Bellamy, known as the pirate prince Black Sam. Roberts, handsome and elegant, known as the black baron; and Francis Drake, an aristocratic pirate who had to become a pirate, but still fought for his country! The existence of these pirates is basically legendary. It also made Oscar a little more different from the seemingly vicious profession of pirates.

However, Edward Blackbeard and Calico Jack are not much of a joke; They are the real ruthless pirates who burn and loot wholeheartedly! Edward Blackbeard, in particular, was nothing short of tyrannical Demon King behavior; In addition, he once took the initiative to lead the fleet to attack Oscar, and Oscar naturally hated him deeply!

Since he happened to meet Blackbeard and Calico Jack here today, Oscar certainly couldn't let them go; Immediately, Oscar crossed Anne and ordered directly to the standard-bearer: "Immediately give an order to Shi Xiu to immediately attack the fleet of Blackbeard Edward and Calico Jack!" Destroy these two ruthless pirate lords at all costs! ”

The standard-bearer also knew Oscar's identity, so after Oscar's order was finished, he immediately began to climb the mast again and wave the flag to Shi Xiu's escort fleet. Mary looked at Oscar's look of deep hatred, and couldn't help but comfort: "Oscar, don't be too worried about Blackbeard's sneak attack last time; After all, he forced you to use the devil's fire, and I don't blame you. ”

Oscar knew that Mary had misunderstood what he meant, so he shook his head and explained to Mary, "I'm not haunted by the last time I used the Devil's Fire; If I had known what kind of person Blackbeard was, I would have been even more determined to use the Devil's Fire! A man like Blackbeard, his actions have turned him into a beast in human skin.

I ordered Shi Xiu to attack Blackbeard's fleet immediately, not simply for the sake of me and his personal grudge, but to take the opportunity to completely wipe out this pirate demon king who caused trouble in the Mediterranean! You know, it's not easy for our fleet to look for Blackbeard's trail in the open sea; It's luck to be able to meet at such a time, and I naturally can't let him go. ”

Oscar's explanation was not to be said, but it aroused Mary's curiosity; Mary was puzzled and asked, "Oscar, why do you hate Blackbeard so much?" So far, apart from that fiasco, Blackbeard has not taken the initiative to provoke the Augustus family; How could you have such a hatred for him? ”

"As I said, my hatred for Blackbeard is not a personal vendetta, but a normal person's hatred of the devil! Regardless of Blackbeard's attack on us, I won't let Blackbeard go; His dehumanizing behavior is enough to make anyone who hears about his deeds want to hang him!

More crucially, no matter how long the war between us and the Kingdom of Carthage lasts; One day, the war will end. When the war is over, we will continue to resume trade with the countries of North Africa; The maritime trade throughout the Western Mediterranean will flourish again, and our Sardinia and Balearic Islands will flourish as a result.

However, the presence of a murderous pirate like Blackbeard would greatly hinder the normal development of trade; Therefore, whether it is out of the responsibility of a civilized person or for the long-term interests of our Augustan family, the annihilation of Blackbeard and Calico Jack is a task that must be completed!

Other pirates, we will slowly destroy them; It's just that the form of exterminating them is not the same as Blackbeard's. Because the other pirates have joined the ranks of pirates more or less for some special reasons, and they have not done anything unreasonable; I can accept their surrender, and even be willing to include them in our family navy, but these two people are absolutely not! ”

Oscar's explanation seems plausible, but it creates new doubts for Mary; Mary still doesn't understand why the usually sane Oscar has such a grudge against Blackbeard. You know, with the current strength of the Augustus family, it is completely possible to persuade Blackbeard to surrender; Why do you have to annihilate Blackbeard's fleet at all costs and kill Blackbeard?

This is the difference in typical worldviews, and in the minds of people in such an era, there is no concept of human rights; They don't understand what Oscar, a soul from another world, is thinking. In Oscar's eyes, Blackbeard is like some extremist groups in the other world, they all kill people regardless of good and bad, good and evil, and use other people's blood to achieve their own goals.

If a murderous extremist appears in front of you now, you will choose to forgive his crimes and let him start living a peaceful life again; Or will they choose to hang him to mourn the innocent deaths. Oscar doesn't know what choice others will make, but Oscar himself will definitely choose to hang him.

Moreover, Blackbeard's nature is even worse than those of the extremists; Because many extremists still rebelled against the Western world for the sake of their motherland and nation, they chose to give up their lives to fight for the living space of their country and nation. Their approach is certainly wrong; But that was also a forced move, after all, their original intentions were still good.

Blackbeard is not because of these at all, Blackbeard's reason for killing is very simple, that is, he wants to kill, he takes pleasure in killing, and he even tries to eat human flesh sexually! Such a beast, Oscar really can't think of a reason not to kill him; Therefore, Oscar gave the order to attack Blackbeard's fleet with all his might!

After receiving Oscar's order, Shi Xiu immediately ordered the fleet to form an offensive formation in the language of the flag; With ten tri-column battleships as the main force and ten double-lined battleships as the two wings, they slaughtered the pirate fleet in a fierce manner. Actually, when the Shixiu fleet discovered the pirate fleet; Both pirate fleets also discovered Shixiu's fleet.

It is a pity that the hatred between them determines that it is impossible for them to shake hands and fight together in such a situation; It's impossible to even strike a fight! Therefore, when the wise fleet came, they were still engaged in a fierce battle, and there was no intention of fleeing. It wasn't until Shi Xiu's fleet rushed over in battle formation that they discovered that it was a fleet from the Augustus family!

Even with the Augustus fleet, Kidd and Roberts were undaunted, and they still bravely fought back against Blackbeard and Calico Jack's fleet at a disadvantage. But Blackbeard and Calico Jack weren't so fearless; As soon as they saw the banner of the House of Augustus, they remembered the devil's fire, and coupled with the past grudges, Blackbeard and Calico wanted to run away even more!
