Black sails

Chapter 575 CCIX. Reunion after a long separation

Golden Palm Harbor Pier.

The war caused almost all trade activities to be suspended, and the ships were sparse.

Alan Navy Vice Admiral Bartlan was counting the property seized from the Black Sail in his office on the ship. There were eight medium-sized schooners, two rows of battleships, more than 700 Bema official cargo standard artillery, more than 300 captured East China Sea pirates, and an unexpected gain, two former heroic adventurers known as the Moon Wheel Swordsman and the Thorn Knight.

"How credible is it that Li Site said he would come to surrender."

Bartlan put down his feather pen, took off his glasses, and asked Zahak.

Zhak's deputy Jin Mi'er has been interrogating the two women these days, but unfortunately she is very stubborn and says nothing.

For beautiful women, Jin Mi'er will definitely be cruel.

But Zahak repeatedly warned that Gloria must not be killed, and the specific reason is also kept secret.

The issue is about the dragon research of the court sorcerer Eustaco. The biggest problem is that this is a project funded by the Cicero National Bank. The dragon is a national property, owned by the emperor, and it also involves a large number of anti-imperialist elements.

So this matter is quite complicated. The people who can be contacted are all very high-level figures, but they cannot make a big move. Zahak is just an unlucky guy who was ordered to do something in a critical situation.

Gloria must know the names of many of the characters, as well as the participants of many forces of the Lostrabema Holy Spirit Church. The list in her head is more precious than her life.

If she can serve as a tainted witness, Zahak can also redeem herself and become a gendarme again.

The gendarmes themselves have slightly more power than other military branches. They are not afraid of officials, but afraid of management. The gendarmes are soldiers who discipline soldiers.

In the Alan Military Committee, except for the acting chairman Augustus, the power distribution of the first echelon is in the tax corps, the royal city army and the gendarmes. The rest of the energy department inspection corps, the national guard, the garrison corps, etc. have to stand back.

The reason why the tax corps is so powerful is that it is endorsed by Cicero, the president of the National Bank, the emperor's right-hand man. The economic base determines the superstructure. They collect taxes in the hottest days of summer and the coldest days of winter. They keep collecting blood taxes until they are tired of it. The Royal City Army can only be ordered by the emperor and the imperial guards. It is independent of the Alan military system. Even Augustus can't do anything about it. He is an agent, and the real throne is sitting.

After that, it's the military police. Within the rules of the Alan constitution, they can punish anyone they want. Even if it's outside the rules, they have a seat in the White Tiger Festival Hall.

The Eustaco incident should be related to the safety of national property, and the tax corps should be in charge of the affairs. The national treasury and the tax corps are directly linked, and all financial disputes are also assigned to them. However, those people are not careful when they start to fight, and they will chop people if a copper coin is wrong. A bowl is a bowl, and the money for a bowl of noodles is missing. If you want to fight, you will have to take out your intestines. In this way, there will be a big fight in the royal court, but the anti-imperialist thieves are too powerful to be moved lightly, so they are delegated to the military police. Unfortunately, Zahak did not do a good job.

For various reasons, the emperor tried every means to come up with dozens of military branches with different divisions of labor. Even Zahak, who has been working in the military for so many years, sometimes can't tell them apart.

But the most powerful legions are still those, more than ten or twenty. I don't know how the engineering corps supported by the emperor will perform in the future. At present, Lagran is a big celebrity around the emperor. The royal court darlings have to give concessions to the church and let them carry out missionary movements.

"It's unlikely, and I'm just talking about it. They are in the heart of Mulong, surrounded by the army and the Church, but the possibility of dividing the troops in different places is not ruled out. Even heroes like Dollinger died in their hands. Just in case, we still have to take precautions. The best situation at present is to wait for the war in the interior of Mulong to subside, and you and I can reap the benefits."

Having dealt with the people of Black Sail, Zahak knew that those people were the most willing to play with their lives and not afraid of death.

"Being surrounded by Crocodile Island and Sword of Time at the same time, can they really split their forces?"

Bartland did not comment, thinking that it was obviously impossible. It has been a long time since he came to Golden Palm Port, and those pirates have not made any movement. It seems that the loyalty that the bandits believe in is just so-so.

I originally wanted to keep those pirates alive and surround their bodies to attack the reinforcements, but thinking carefully, it is really a fantasy. It would be strange if those rotten people have loyalty.

"Don't underestimate them. The docks are well guarded. The Marquis of Golden Palm Harbor has to urge his private army to guard the checkpoints."

Zahak pinched his eyebrows. Maybe he really had bad luck. Every mission was to fight in someone else's territory where he was unfamiliar with the place. The key was that the lords of these places were more cunning than each other. Bema and Alan had a big grudge, which was nearly 20 years ago. The admiral of Linden City was not afraid of Alan, and the Marquis of Golden Palm Harbor seemed docile, but in fact he was more terrifying. He was the kind of ungrateful wolf who could not be tamed. Whenever there was a slight disturbance and the navy was not doing well, he would definitely run to show goodwill to Uporio.

In the military world of the imperial capital, where there was murderous intent at every step, Zahak had been in the military for so long, so he must have the ability to judge people.

"General, urgent report, a team of people claiming to be the Mulon Army came to the dock and said they wanted to see... Lord Zahak."

The herald didn't care about etiquette at this time and came in without knocking on the door.

"Mullon Army?"

Bartland slammed the table and stood up, looking incredulous.

Mullon is now a puppet comprador government, where is the army? Even if there is, they are useless people who eat empty salaries. Mulon's military has been outsourced to Crocodile Island.

"It's probably the resistance army..." Suddenly Zahak thought of something and asked anxiously: "Did they clash with the Marquis' army on the way here?"

The herald shook his head, "Those people didn't have any traces of battle on their bodies. They seemed to have come unimpeded. The Marquis' people also said they were from the Mulon Army."

The level of the thief of the Violating Hou is far beyond Zahak's imagination. He is the best among the wallflowers and has double Infernal Affairs. The so-called centrists are either killed twice or win big. The Violating Hou has already won. Anyway, I am powerful. To be honest, I'm a little scared when I see someone copying someone. It doesn't matter who comes to Jinzhangang for money. I just want to be a marquis.

Zahak smelled an extremely dangerous aura, "Give me the order and summon all the generals immediately. Where are they now?"

Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\\\\Nine\\\\\\Book\\\\\\!)

It seems that there are no generals coming to fight this battle, but they are all waiting for a regional lord-level military merit to be promoted to generals. There has never been a parallel import of Yalan's military rank. Even if they entered through a trust relationship, they still can't get up. Can't walk.

"I was stopped outside the pier and was surrounded by two school officers and their troops."

So said the herald.

Zahak secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not change the order and still summoned the generals, fearing that there was fraud.

"Let's go and meet the Mulon Army...or the Resistance Army, and the East China Sea Pirates."

Zahak unsheathed his sword, and the thief took away the teaching gift given by the Sword King, and he happened to find it back in Mulong.

He had no idea that Xia Di had already been slashed by Joshua with his sword.

Zahak and Butland did not neglect.

The hot sea breeze with a salty taste blew by wildly. Zahak, who was standing on the fender of the warship, looked in the direction pointed by the herald. Although he could not see the faces clearly, there were only about a hundred people, who were also surrounded. Not a threat.

What Morrison didn't expect was that after casually disturbing Mulon's army, the disobedient Hou was the kind of person who was extremely timid, and the whole journey was unimpeded, and he arrived at a dock full of navy.

And Colonel Najion led a large force to rescue the prisoners.

"I want to see Zahak."

Morrison said calmly to the naval officer.
