This early spring, which has not been very stable for all countries, has quietly passed.

Before you know it, April is coming, and even the northern colonies of the kingdom are already dyed with a thick green.

One of the royal colonies of Phaletis, East Lunchs, is the current capital of the colony.

In a colonial café made of spruce wood, Aven and a chubby middle-aged gentleman are enjoying a sumptuous afternoon tea together.

The finest coffee from the New World, the almond sponge cake with the local method of Faletis, and the crème brûlée with pickled berries are deceptively simple enough to be luxurious enough for most colonists.

"Thank you Director Necardo for your support of the construction of the Port of Hatrafa, without you and the Donglunzhi Company, even if this port were handed over to me, I don't know how long it would have taken to get it up and running. ”

Dressed in a white shirt and slim military pants and boots, Aven held his coffee cup in a leisurely manner, with his ruby cane resting next to him, and the faint sound of nibbling biscuits could be heard in the shadow.

"It's just a small thing, but it's all for the great cause of the kingdom.

Your Excellency General may have any needs, as long as they are within my purview, they can be solved for you as a matter of priority. ”

Necardo now has long since lost the egalitarian attitude he had when he first met Aven, and has been faintly currying favor since he saw his power in Coldwater Bay.

Since then, he has been promoted to brigadier general in just half a year.

He was then appointed by Lieutenant General Gustavus as the deputy commander of Phaletis's garrison in the New World, and at a young age he became one of the top ten military commanders in the entire New World.

The commander of the garrison was a major general named Martin Christopher, the main commander of the army, who had been stationed in the colony for a long time, and in fact played the role of a police officer.

Although the actual combat effectiveness of this force is certainly not comparable to that of the navy, it is impossible to bypass them if they want to do something in the New World.

And even if Evan wasn't prepared to meddle too much in the affairs of the garrison, he was in the position and already had the power to draw a small part of the armed forces from the colonial cities without the governor's consent.

The influence is no longer to be underestimated.

At this time, even in terms of his position in the kingdom's bureaucracy, Necado, as the head of trade in Eastern Lunchs, already needed to look up to him.

"By the way, Mr. Director, you know, I need to recruit a group of 'special' seafarers.

You have worked in the New World for a long time, and you know much more about the situation here than I do, do you have any good advice on this point?"

As an insider, Evan did not need to scruple about Neccator, and directly sought the help of this old bureaucrat.

In fact, the situation in the New World during this period had no intention of settling down.

Originally, because Cyrius occupied the best regions with various resources and had the highest value output, among all the merchant ships traveling between the continents, of course, their merchant ships were the most valuable.

It's also a favorite target of pirates!

But now, under the leadership of Bradley the Oathbreaker, a large group of pirates began to raid the merchant ships of other countries.

Even if there is a difference in value, you can get a part of the so-called merit certificate from the pirate king.

At the same time, he shared his smuggling channels, private harbor, extraordinary knowledge, and even some interest subsidies, and of course, the promise of the future statehood.

Even the location of the state, Bradley drew a blueprint for them.

In the southern part of the New World, north of the Vice-Palja de La Plata on the east coast, there is a vast land called Cabral.

This area is also the most ethnically complex at present, with colonists from many Old World countries, fugitive slaves, original Atllian natives, and a large number of mixed races.

One of the strongest forces is the remnants of Gasna and Azik, once destroyed by Hylius, and there are still a large number of indigenous shamans and totemic warriors.

Although chaotic, it was regarded by the pirates led by Bradley as the most ideal place to build a free pirate nation.

Obviously, the pirate king was prepared to become a benevolent man if he didn't succeed, and followed Syrius all the way to the dark.

In this context, after several rounds of consultations, the countries have reached a common resolution.

Compared with Cylius, the military strength of various countries is of course weak, and sending warships to directly confront others is a loss-making deal that no one will do.

Therefore, all adopted the model of large-scale privateering operations organized by the authorities, recognizing that any individual raiding the merchant ships of Cyrius was lawful and would not be considered pirates.

Privateering had certainly existed before that, but it had never risen to the level of systematization, normalization, and unity of purpose, and this was the first time that the nations had shared the same hatred.

It's exactly the same as Aven's "Blood Loss Plan"!The fastest update Mobile::

If there were no high-ranking Faletis behind it, he wouldn't have believed it.

So, on this premise.

Aven can't be left behind, and the captains who have received privateering permission from the kingdoms may flock to him, but Aven, the semi-official privateer fleet of Pharytis, will also start to make a difference.

The most important point is that I have never been a pirate, and I am not familiar with the way.

Even if they already had a few high-end ships captured from Cyrius that most pirates would not dare to think of, they lacked a large number of people who could move them.

The Endeavour has left Port Hatrafa, and all the wounded who had been permanently disabled in the battle, including the first mate Borg, have been sent to the warship by Evan to return to the mainland, leaving only 209 former Stormhorn crew members on the entire island.

Not to mention the few warships that have been allocated by him to become the main force of the privateer fleet, even the "Storm Horn" itself is short of a large number of men.

Hearing Aven's words, Necardo, who had served in the New World for many years, muttered:

"If it's just for Syrius, I know a very good group of people.

I don't know if you've heard of the Isle of St. Dominque and the people of Arawak?"

Hearing the familiar words, Ai Wen suddenly became interested, and put down the coffee cup in his hand:

"Saint-Domingue, do you mean the birthplace and base of the 'Voodoo' in the New World?"

"Yes, but the island of Santo Domingue is its current name, and it was called Hispaniola when the aborigines were still living there."

Originally, a tribe of the Atrian natives called Arawak lived on the island of Hispaniola.

The second largest island in the Golden Sea, covers an area of 27,000 square kilometers and is rich in sugar cane, coffee and rice.

But about ten years ago, the Cyrius, in order to prevent the infiltration of the Sarks (in order to recreate a similar alliance with the Iroquois on the island), used their army to carry out a large-scale invasion and blockade of the inhabitants.

Massacres and famine drove the natives of those Arawak tribes to the sea.

But the Syrius, who thought they had a plan, did not expect that the Arawaks, who had retreated to the sea, gathered around the northern island of Tortuga and became pirates who fought against Hirus.

Moreover, in order to retaliate for the large-scale massacre of Syrius, most of the Syrius people captured by them will be executed.

There was little hostility towards the pioneers of the Old World other than the Cyrius.

Because the island of Tortuga is also in the northern part of the Golden Sea, the East Lunzhi Company has dealt with them before and helped deal with the spoils of war, so it can be regarded as a good talk.

"It's just that their current situation is not very good, and Tortuga is not enough to feed too many people, and maybe enough people can be recruited from them.

Ahem, it's just that the ratio of men to women in Arawak is about 7:3, and there are many male-male pairs among them, and even formal marriage-like relationships.

Do you mind that?"

Evan thought for a moment, although there were some minor problems, but it did not affect the raid. And in terms of its own "profit-driven" management style, race should not be a big problem.

So, Evan nodded:

"I don't mind, I respect other people's customs and views on mate selection. ”

However, as soon as the words fell, I looked up and saw Milan and a girl walking by outside the window.

The girl's long hair shawl with delicate feather headbands and short leather armor exposed large areas of wheat-colored delicate skin. : :

The whole person is like a beautiful and dangerous female leopard, which is completely different from the submissive and insensitive native slaves in the current colony.

"Huh, that's?"

At the same time.

The outermost part of the Golden Sea is the border with the Black Sea, near the island of Barpudos.

"Wow! It's the 'Iron Bone' again, let them continue like this, how can we rob it?!"

On a pirate ship with black sails, the first mate of the pirate wearing a red turban and gold teeth put down the brass binoculars in his hand, spat and hatefully cursed.

Not far from them, a merchant ship laden with a shallow draft of cargo was slowly moving, which should have been a very suitable prey.

But paradoxically, next to it, a pirate ship with black sails was escorting it.

With its recognizable bow gun, which resembles a backbone, the pirate first mate could easily identify who was doing the bad things to him.

The Old Continent counterpart "Iron Bone" William, who has risen for less than a year!

This is a typical "righteous thief".

Whether it's a legitimate merchant ship or a smuggling ship, this guy only collects a quarter of the total value of the cargo, and will act as a guard to send it out of the country to prevent it from being robbed by other peers.

Because of its geographical location, Barpudos is a hunting ground for many pirate ships waiting for their prey, and now the sudden appearance of a troublemaker is of course very unhappy for many people.

But afraid of the strength of the "iron bone" William, after a few initial temptations, no one dared to single out William's rules for the time being!

But let's go on like this

"Captain, the Golden Sea is no better than the eastern shore of the Black Sea.

There are two pirate kings here, and there are countless pirates, will we be fooled by these peers after a long time?"

The first mate, who was holding a beautiful briar pipe, exhaled a deep puff of white smoke and said with some concern.

"Yes, Captain, why don't we go somewhere else?" or go back to the eastern shore of the Black Sea!"

A sturdy young man with a bare bronze shirt also echoed him, after being rescued by the navy and escaping from the great pirate Bassem.

It's been almost a year since he came to the New World, and he can clearly feel the growing dissatisfaction of his peers with his people.

Even if it docked at the pirate's private port, the crew of the ship did not dare to say the name of the ship they were on, for fear of retaliation by their colleagues who had broken the good deeds.

The middle-aged man with two iconic pirate scimitars on his waist and a cyan stubble turned his head when he heard the words, and his eyebrows furrowed:

"If you bastards can be a little more aggressive, do we still need to look at other people's faces? This is the third place we've changed!

I almost sold myself to that grudge-minded navy boy for the sake of you bastard captain, otherwise I wouldn't dare to go back to the New World until now?"

Suddenly.

A white seagull flying over their heads swooped down.

Fluttering

Lightly landed on the boom of the aftermast.

Boom!

Spat out a Gugashna gold coin and smashed it at the feet of the iron-bone William.

With a ghostly expression, he slowly spoke:

"Good day, Mr. William, I have finally found you, you promised me three things, I should not forget, right?"
