After a few minutes of silence, Sandro suddenly took out an envelope from his pocket, handed it to me, and said, "This is a letter written to you by the Duke himself, and when you have read it, we will find time to talk." ”

I took the question mark of the letter, this Duke Jackson would actually write me a personal letter? I was about to take out the letter and read it, but Sandro pressed my hand and said mysteriously: "Mr. Han, don't be in such a hurry, you can read it slowly when you go back." ”

I was puzzled and asked, "Why is that?" I'm looking at it here, if there's something I don't understand, wouldn't it be better to ask you directly? ”

"It doesn't matter, if Mr. Han really doesn't understand anything, when the Duke arrives, you can ask him in person."

Sandro's words surprised me, and I asked, "What do you mean by that?" Are you saying that the Duke is coming to Paradise Island? ”

Sandro nodded, "Well, Lord Duke should already be on his way now, and he will be able to reach Paradise Island in two days." ”

"Why did the Duke suddenly come to Paradise Island?"

"I don't know about this, but what I can tell you is that it is not only the Duke who came to Paradise Island this time, but also other high-ranking officials of the Empire, strictly speaking, this time it is a high-level delegation of the Empire."

High-level study tours? Why would the empire suddenly send a high-level investigation team to Paradise Island at this time? Could it be that the storm that has been brewing for a long time will happen sooner?

"Mr. Han, you can go back now, oh yes, I would like to remind you by the way, the Duke is no longer the Secretary of State and Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, he is now the Prime Minister of the British Empire."

Out of Sandro's barracks, it was already very dark outside, and in this month, the temperature on Paradise Island was still very low at night, and I couldn't help but shiver when the cold wind blew.

As I walked, I suddenly heard a dense burst of gunfire from the direction of the dock, followed by a rapid siren, and I chuckled in my heart, what happened to Nima?

Soon, because of the dense gunfire and sirens, the paradise island that had already entered a deep sleep woke up instantly, and most of the islanders did not know what was happening, and they could only find a strong place to hide in their homes.

I hurried back to the winery, and the people in the winery also got up, and the big guys didn't know what was going on, and they were a little apprehensive, after all, this was the first time that the siren sounded since Paradise Island officially became the territory of the British Empire, and it happened in the dead of night, so people had to think about it.

According to the alarm system of Paradise Island, the alarm device installed on the pier can only be triggered when Paradise Island is attacked, once the alarm is triggered, Paradise Island will automatically enter a first-level security state, including the island police, all armed forces must participate in the defense, but the question is who has the courage to attack Paradise Island?

Although Paradise Island is only an overseas territory of the British Empire, even if it is a distant overseas territory, it also belongs to the British Empire, once attacking Paradise Island is equivalent to declaring war on the British Empire, whether it is the empires of the entire Western Islands or the empires of the Eastern Islands, at least at this stage, no empire should have such courage.

Bruni hurried over and told me that there were at least dozens of ships of all kinds on the sea, because it was too dark to see where they were coming from.

"So many ships all of a sudden?" I frowned after listening to Bruni's words, and at the same time thought in my heart, if it was really the size of dozens of ships, it could only be the regular army of which country, but the question was which empire's regular army would attack Paradise Island at night?

Bruni asked me, "Mr. Han, should we retreat to the woods deep on the island first?" Paradise Island's defenses are limited, and it will certainly not be able to withstand the attacks of so many ships. ”

I nodded, "Well, you have to retreat immediately, Brunny, you call our people, and then take all the workers of the distillery to retreat deeper into the island, the deeper the better." ”

After Bruni and the others were ready, I was going to go to the dock alone to check the situation, but Ding Ying grabbed me, "What do you want to do?" Won't you come with us? ”

I shook my head and said, "I'm going to see what happened, or it's not a good idea to retreat deep into the island." ”

"How's that going to work? The docks must be dangerous right now, what if something happens to you? ”

I touched her head and said, "Don't worry, I'm not stupid, and besides, aren't those boats docked yet?" Once I've figured out the situation, I'll go to you. ”

Ding Ying wanted to say something more, I made a shushing gesture for them to hurry up and leave first, but they couldn't resist me, so they had to leave first, before leaving, Rockefeller suddenly asked me: "Manager, we won't always have to hide in the woods, right?" ”

I smiled and raised my voice and said to everyone, "Don't worry too much, as far as I know, Duke Jackson is coming to Paradise Island with a high-level imperial expedition, and they must have a large number of troops with them, so you don't need to hide when the time comes." ”

After seeing everyone off, I immediately rushed to the dock, but before I could get closer, I was stopped by two soldiers, one of whom was Uncle Song's son.

Uncle Song's son was a little surprised to see me, but because he was on a mission, he still said to me seriously: "Mr. Han, now that the dock is under attack, no one can get close. ”

I nodded, "Yes, yes, but I want to ask, who is so bold as to attack Paradise Island?" ”

Uncle Song's son shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't tell you. ”

At this time, a group of imperial citizens came to inquire about the situation, and they surrounded Uncle Song's son and asked nonsense, the child was a little confused and didn't know how to deal with it, and he held back for a long time before saying: "The commander has an order, no one can approach the dock, there is danger here, please go back quickly." ”

"Don't you know who's on the sea?"

"yes, if we don't attack Paradise Island, aren't we just worried?"

"Can you hold it?"

……

Under everyone's questioning, Uncle Song's son kept looking at his companions around him, but his companions were about the same age as him, and they were also at a loss.

"Like, like seeing a pirate flag." , failed to stand up to everyone's questioning, Uncle Song's son said hesitantly.

"Pirates?" As soon as everyone heard that the dozens of ships on the sea were pirate ships, they were all afraid, after all, compared to the invasion of other empires, pirates are more likely to be afraid, those pirates who burn, kill, loot and do all kinds of evil are bottomless, unprincipled, if they go to Paradise Island, then the whole island will suffer, thinking of this, the islanders who came to inquire about the news immediately dispersed, I guess they all went home to pack their bags and take refuge in the depths of the island.

For me, pirates don't seem so scary, I've been to the Golden Islands a few times, what kind of pirates haven't seen it? I just don't understand a little, are these pirates fed? How dare you attack Paradise Island? Aren't they afraid that the British Empire will find out and send a fleet to wipe out the Golden Islands? Besides, if they really came with dozens of ships this time, it would be pouring out of the nest, what is the purpose of their making such a big move? Paradise Island is not a rich place, even if you sweep it once, it will not be of any value, so there is no need for this? It's not going to be for me again, is it?
