"Aha! I don't know where the gossip came from, but it actually attracted the famous Jack Rickhan! ”

Everyone present was the best of the pirates, and they were all bold outlaws, daring to do things that no one else dared to do. Although they were all keen on the word 'gold', they also thought about their position in this plunder and how much gold they could get in an instant. But at the end of the day, there is a question, and that is whether the news is true or not.

"It's true!" Still drunk, Cotton Jack explained, "The reason why you didn't receive this message is because this was originally a treasure fleet that traveled from the south to Europe via the north. They consist of a huge treasure ship, as well as a fourth-rank frigate and two fifth-rank frigates......"

"So we need to fight three Navy warships? One of them is still a fourth-class frigate ?! Black Sam slapped the table dissatisfied, pointed at Cotton Jack and said contemptuously: "You must have drunk too much fake wine!" You should really ask the woman next to you to lift your skull so that the sea breeze can blow the alcohol out of your brain! ”

After hearing this, several captains next to him also complained to Cotton Jack with dissatisfaction. No one thought they would be able to defeat this incomparably large fleet, not even the people present combined.

After Wang Hao heard the size of the fleet, he also shook his head slightly, and secretly sighed that this was almost impossible.

It was not that the force of the people present was not enough to overthrow the fleet, but that the price to be paid for it was so great that if it was raised, the captains would immediately be mutined by the sailors and quartermasters, and kicked out of their positions.

It's not for nothing that the captains are so worried.

You know, the naval warships of this era were roughly divided into classes one to six from top to bottom.

While the vast majority of pirate ships were not even the lowest tier 6 ships, only a few of the pirate flagships could barely match the rank 6 or 5 warships. However, to the embarrassment of the Royal Navy of the European powers, even the fourth-class ships in the Caribbean are as rare as giant pandas, and more often than not, the Royal Fleet stationed in Jamaica is just a few sixth-class ships that have been rotten by the tropical climate and have had their sails and rigging rotten, and their hulls drilled by maggots that have been in disrepair and cannot go to sea.

So with the help of their peers, it was only natural for the pirates to turn the Caribbean Sea into their own territory.

This is the main reason why Commodore Norrington was able to cross the Caribbean with a first-class battleship, the Dreadnought, and a fifth-class battleship, the Interceptor.

It's not that our army is too strong, it's that the opponent is too weak.

It wasn't until later that Wang Hao robbed Commodore Norrington of a fifth-class battleship 'Interceptor' and renamed it 'Equality', which greatly damaged Commodore Norrington's vitality. He had a Dreadnought with more than 100 guns and more than 800 navies, but the first class battleship was too cumbersome to catch up with the nimble pirates. As a result, the Intrepid can only be placed in the harbor of Port Royal and used as a mobile battery.

That's why Brigadier General Norrington hates Wang Hao so much, and not just because of Elizabeth.

By the way, Blackbeard Teach's Queen Anne's Revenge, as well as the Black Pearl, were converted from merchant ships. If they fill all the gun positions, they will have the strength to compete with the Royal Navy's Tier 5 warships.

As for the 'Flying Dutchman'? That submarine is not within the calculation of ordinary people.

It was once said that compared with the ancient Chinese wars, the only wars in Japan that deserve special mention in the Warring States period were the village chiefs fighting to become the village chiefs. Then, compared with the war for European maritime supremacy, the Caribbean Sea should be the marine version of the village chief war, all of which are small boats fighting each other.

This was not because the European nations were too underwhelmed or that pirates were too weak, but in fact they were so rampant during the golden age of piracy that they almost cut off the connection between Europe and the New World.

In that case, why don't countries send mighty and domineering large battleships to punish pirates?

That's because large ships aren't suited for this type of work. These 1st to 3rd class ships are bulky wooden bunkers with several layers of heavy cannons, and most of the time they are heartbreakingly slow, and if you don't have a reference, you'll even think they're standing still at sea.

Because their flexibility is so poor that they are completely useless for tasks such as escorting merchant ships, attacking enemy transport lines, or patrolling the reef-strewn Caribbean Sea, they exist for a single purpose: to line up in major naval battles in Europe and then bombard the with artillery.

This is also the origin of the name "battleship".

Compared to the fourth and fifth class warships, the sailing ships used by the pirates were like papier-mâché, and could not withstand even half a salvo from large-caliber heavy cannons. Even if they didn't hit the hull, the strong waves from the cannonballs would have overturned some of the boats.

That's what the captains are really worried about.

Of course, Cotton Jack also understood the worries of everyone present, and quickly explained: "Don't worry, the next thing is the focus of my trip." The three frigates, along with the Jumbo ship, were all heavily damaged in a shipwreck. According to the latest information I have received, only the Jumbo ship floated to the naval fortress with its broken hull in tow, and all the other warships were buried in the shipwreck. That is to say......"

"In other words, we only need to get rid of the fortress's bunkers, and the gold is like rum in our glasses, and we can enjoy it as we please!" Blackbeard finally couldn't help himself and interrupted Cottonjack. Then he picked up a bottle of rum in his hand and handed it to Cotton Jack, "Welcome to Nassau, Captain Rickham." ”

Cotton Jack took the wine bottle and poured it wildly, looking at this Wang Hao and said: "Now, it depends on whether this legendary Oriental captain dares to use his flagship to fight it." ”

It's a simple agitation, but it's very effective.

If this can be done, it will be no matter how the Governor of Jamaica holds the pirates accountable afterwards. Wang Hao, the pirate captain who once robbed the navy warships and now provides the mortars on the warships to attack the naval fortresses, will definitely be wanted as the primary target.

As for the others, perhaps only Blackbeard Tich dared to fly his own pirate flag when attacking the fortress, and the rest only dared to hang the black flag as a symbol of piracy to identify themselves.

But Wang Hao will not be scared by this.

Coming to this world, without the oppression of system tasks, Wang Hao doesn't even need to care about the life and death of the characters in the original plot, nor does he need to care about the development of the plot, it's really extremely easy.

In this case, Wang Hao, who is completely relaxed physically and mentally, all his activities revolve around six words, that is, to do things, to do things, to do things.

Now, isn't it time for a big event? Wang Hao, who got the news, even if other captains didn't participate at this time, he himself wanted to try it.

The worst-case scenario is nothing more than a failed attack and the loss of the Equality again. In this golden age of piracy, as long as Wang Hao is not caught by the navy, as long as there is a ship, he can recruit countless sailors with the name of 'Thunder Pirate' and make a comeback.

But if the navy wants to catch itself, then it is really thinking too much, and it is a big deal to find an island where there is no shortage of food and drink, and build a thatched hut to bury himself in cultivation. When the limelight is over, come out and gallop to the Caribbean islands.

So in the face of such a superficial agitation method of Cotton Jack, Wang Hao smiled, and smiled brightly, which made the people next to him suspect that there was something wrong with his spirit.

But in the next moment, Wang Hao suddenly put away his laughter, glanced around at everyone, stretched out three fingers and said loudly: "No problem." But I don't care how others distribute it after the deed, I want 30%! ”
