Chapter 15: The Battlefield of Historical Scripts
Fang Senyan still had a few pounds of spare money on him at this time, so Suo went to the bars of Tutuga Harbor, but he only drank the three kinds of "Lang Li Kolem" and "Lemon Hart (Lemonhart) Rum" and "Mulan Tan" among the conditions that the drunk met. Fortunately, news of two other liquors was obtained, lambs potato rum was available on the British [***] ships anchored in the harbor, and the castle of Tutuga Harbor also had a collection of rum from Kusba.
However, for the sake of these two news, Fang Senyan's money bag shrank sharply again. At this time, Fang Senyan once again felt that the important surname with high charm value was not only a matter of saving money, but also a matter of greatly saving time, and even spending a smaller price to obtain more and richer intelligence information...... It's just that Fang Senyan looked at his few single-digit charm values helplessly and shook his head. Although this value is not the lowest at this time, it is still far from enough for yourself!
The important surname of the team is also highlighted at this time, I believe that if it is Kerry's team, they can naturally screen out the most charismatic people to find out intelligence, the person with the highest strength as a commando, and the person with the highest physical strength as the main force of the attack, so that the division of labor is clear, and if the internal cohesion is made, there is no doubt that the difficulty of the task can be greatly reduced. Dig deeper and faster.
But! The team is important, but what Fang Senyan wants is a team that can be completely under his control! If his status is in the embarrassing situation of "others eat meat and I drink soup", the fate of being an abandoned son at any time is definitely not what he wants.
After shaking his head, Fang Senyan forcibly put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind. He was continuing to gather intelligence in the streets of the harbor and check the movement of the Tutuga port guards, but the three legendary pirate ships moored in the harbor suddenly raised the skull flag! And then the cannon was fired violently, and the sound of the cannon was very regular, three long and two short, and then before the smoke of the gunpowder had dissipated, all kinds of horns sounded on the ships, and only the flying Dutchman was blown with a huge conch shell.
Fang Senyan was shocked when he heard the sound of cannons, he immediately thought that the pirates had formed a consensus to directly attack Tutuga Port, but he immediately vetoed this proposal in his mind. Because in every sense of the word, the time is far from ripe for the attack on the sack of the port of Tutuga! It's impossible for the pirates, who are already scattered, to form alliances and reach a consensus! So in this way, there should be a contractor who triggered some large-scale emergency!
At this time, you can also see from afar: "Bell and Wine Cup" also began to raise the sails, and the boatswain one-eyed dragon Caron also raised his head on the watchtower, blowing the horn made of buffalo horns vigorously, although Fang Senyan had just joined the gang and did not know what this meant, but it would not be wrong to return to the ship immediately.
When Fang Senyan boarded the deck of the Bell and Wine Glass, he immediately received a hint from the Nightmare Mark:
"Authentication Passed ......"
"Contractor 1018 has been approved by Armand and is currently the crew of the Corsair Bells and Glasses."
"Contractor 1018 has qualified to enter the Battlefield of the Historical Script: The Fall of the Armada (Prologue)."
"Contractor 1018, are you going to follow the Pirate Ship Bells and Glasses into the Battlefield of the Historical Script: The Fall of the Armada (Prologue)? Yes/No. ”
Historical plot description: With the advent of the Age of Discovery, Spain relied on the navy to plunder a lot of wealth, and by the end of the 16th century, 83% of the world's precious metal mining was obtained by Spain. In order to protect its sea lines of communication and its interests abroad, Spain built a powerful naval fleet with nearly 100 warships, more than 3,000 cannons, and tens of thousands of soldiers, which roamed the Mediterranean and Atlantic oceans, proudly calling itself the "Invincible Armada."
When England rose, it seriously threatened Spain's monopoly on the colonies and aroused the hatred of King Philip II of Spain. At that time, Britain's maritime strength was not strong, and it was difficult to match the Spanish naval fleet, so it could only rely on pirate groups to attack and rob Spanish ships carrying gold and silver at sea to carry out piracy activities, and the British Royal Fleet took the opportunity to slowly grow. After all, the contradiction between the two cannot be reconciled.
In order to compete for supremacy at sea, Spain and Britain engaged in a fierce and spectacular naval battle that attracted worldwide attention. Spain had a clear absolute advantage in this naval battle, and surprisingly the outcome of the naval battle ended in the defeat of Spain, and the "Invincible Armada" was almost completely annihilated. Since then, Spain has declined sharply, and the status of "maritime hegemon" has been replaced by England.
And the historical script battlefield that is about to be experienced at this time is the prologue to this magnificent sea battle!
In the face of such a great opportunity, Fang Senyan naturally clicked yes without thinking about it, and a series of prompts and instructions were given again:
"Historical Script Battlefield: The Fall of the Armada (Prologue)"
"Three merchant ships from the New World are sailing a hundred nautical miles, their holds filled with gold, jade, and treasure plundered from the New World. Because of their deep draft, they are so slow that even the slowest pirate ships can easily catch up. ”
However, the owner of the merchant ship, Fernandez, was a shrewd man, and he recognized the great risks of the voyage when he set sail, so he spent a lot of money to hire four warships from the Armada to escort him, and after a long voyage, most of the journey home, unfortunately at this time, they were discovered by a fast sailing ship of the British Royal Navy, and the news was quickly leaked to the British Royal Navy fleet flagship Endeavour, anchored in the port of Tutuga. The Endeavour quickly broke the news to the pirates docked in the port of Tutuga, and the two sides formed a temporary alliance and set sail to chase after the Spaniards.......
It is impossible not to mention here the delicate relationship between the British Royal Navy and pirates at this time, and under normal circumstances, pirates raiding merchant ships were naturally against the law, which meant that their relationship was destined to be as antagonistic as that between a policeman and a thief. However, some pirates themselves are the broken nobles of Britain, and they usually have a "privateer certificate" issued by the Queen of England, which means that as long as he does not rob his own ships, he is legally protected by Great Britain------ or robs his own ships so that the news is not leaked. Such pirates are usually allies of the British Navy. And even those pirates who do all kinds of evil, as long as they are willing to change their minds and show their sincerity, and dedicate part of their plundered wealth to the Queen of England, they can still get knighthoods!
If these factors are entangled, it is very simple to say that the British navy and the pirates are internal contradictions among the people, and the two sides have something to discuss, but the Armada is the great enemy of both sides, and it is an external contradiction between the enemy and us. Therefore, after the Endeavor found it difficult to deal with this fat and oily Spanish fleet, it was logical to leak this information to the pirates, and the two sides knew the bottom line! In the face of huge interests, it is natural to hit it off and form a temporary alliance to act together!
The wind was strong, and the sails of the bells and glasses were full of the wind, and they swelled up, propelling the ship forward at high speed in the middle of the sea. The slender hull of this medium-sized North Sea three-masted galleon, coupled with the striking angle of the bow, resembles a flying fish with wide stripes of gray and dark blue gliding at high speed, sometimes breaking through the waves and leaping out of the water, and from time to time gliding flat against the sea, which looks light and elegant.
There was also a tense atmosphere on the ship, with the gunners constantly checking the loaded ammunition, and they had to place the powder kegs in easy and difficult positions, and the one-eyed dragon Cuaron was shouting at the sailors to sharpen the blades of their swords. For the speed-focused bells and glasses, it's clear that hand-to-hand combat is the main means of attack for these pirates. For example, a perverted ship like the Endeavour, which is equipped with nearly 200 cannons, naturally uses the advantage of firepower to bombard the enemy until it collapses.
At this time, Fang Senyan became the object of everyone's attention, and these pirates saw too many fierce men on land wilting into soft-footed shrimp on the rocking ships. Most people were dissatisfied with his murderous behavior, so there were many people watching the joke on the sidelines. Who knew that Fang Senyan was completely walking on the shaky deck, like a leisurely stroll, and he also tied sail ropes for people everywhere and strengthened the side of the gunwale, looking like a familiar hand who had lived at sea for a long time
