Watching the Dawn
Vol 7 Chapter 148: 3 good news
"Boom ~ boom ~" The roar of two volleys, the shells fell one after the other near the ship, setting off large waves.
The Fleet merchant ship under the Dutch flag that had been warned had to stop.
"Damn, it's a real tm!" The fat captain grabbed the cocked hat and cursed for the first officer to stop the ship. He ran to the bow of the ship and looked at the two French armed merchant ships near him, unable to help cursing again.
Although the Anglo-French alliance has been armed against the West-Holland alliance, the friction between the two sides has continued, but it has not reached the level of unrestricted attacks on the other merchant ship. Everyone does not want to destroy the trade that prospered. Is there anything more depressing than when you smuggled and encountered two warships faster than you?
What's more ... he did do so a few times ... pirates.
Well, occasionally in the future. The most important thing is that it is near Bermuda. There is a hidden pirate port in the Bermuda Islands, which is one of the main pirate sales sites. Because it is lonely outside the Caribbean Sea, it is less threatened by the navies of various countries, and dirty merchants like him often come, so the pirate trade is very prosperous.
... Now that his ship is loaded with ordinary cargo, but upon inspection, he knows that it is loaded with valuable goods such as grain, canvas, and red brick, which are supplies for the construction of the harbour. Imagine that there is only one Bermuda pirate harbour nearby.
He could only stand on the side of the boat tangled, waving his white flag again and again, waiting for the ships on both sides to send someone to board the ship-whether it was an inspection or a blackmail, only God knew. "Just leave my boat," he whispered in prayer. "Just leave the boat."
Just when he was extremely anxious, a sailor standing behind him suddenly stood up. Lifting his hood, revealing a beautiful face that does not look like a man. It is the "Hua Dan" of the "Opera". Li Huamei, the Admiral of the Nanyang Mariners of China.
"Have you come?" She murmured to herself, and then spread her hands at the fat captain who turned her head in amazement.
"Ah ... it doesn't matter." Ai's long-term ship, I don't know how to answer ... He has been shocked by this radiant Oriental woman who suddenly appeared on his ship.
"Can you help me put down the dinghy? As long as I leave, they should be led away. When they come to catch me, you will leave immediately ... It is better not to believe the quality of the soldiers." Sailor clothes. Exposing the iconic scarlet jersey, Yingzi stood at the side of the boat, reached for the white flag, and threw it into the water.
The fat captain's eyes kept staring at Li Huamei, his lips crooked several times, and finally he ordered the boat to be put down. In any case, he did not dare to cover Li Huamei after all.
Li Huamei nodded, boarded the small boat hanging outside the boat, and looked out into the distance alone.
She knew she couldn't escape this time. At most, you can only buy a little time for the merchant ship, but what about? No matter what you owe or involve others, you should n’t be Li Huamei!
Half a month ago. When she met Yi An on the street, she happened to be hunted down by the British.
You should know that she led the team to chase the East India Company Far East Fleet from Southeast Asia to the Caribbean. Chase most of the earth. As a result, the East India Company lost a large number of ships and was subsequently ambushed by the West Dutch Allied forces. They simply hated Li Huamei for his bones. Later, even if Lu Yuan slaughtered the Norwegian sea monster, he failed to cut the amount of reward offered by Li Huamei too much. Often she hides for a week or two and will be blocked once.
The British arrest made her escape easily. However, she immediately discovered that the "Barbados" was attacking the port. At the beginning, she thought that it was the "Qianlong" who responded to her, which was quite touched. But immediately Li Huamei discovered that the crew of the "Barbados" did not aim for themselves. They just took advantage of the confusion caused by Li Huamei and under the command of the "Qianlong Team" looted the entire harbor. This is simply a robber act!
Li Huamei was so disappointed that he immediately boarded a Dutch merchant ship and left the harbor. In Li Huamei's eyes, if Lu Yuan's "Opera Theatre" can be regarded as a green forest hero, then now the "Qianlong Team" is doing the work of the red & naked robber ringing the horse!
The opponent Lu Yuan chose was always a pirate or a slave trader. He had never hesitated to fight against the navy. Why not deal with those unarmed citizens and ordinary businessmen? ! That's why Li Huamei is willing to go with him, not only because Lu Yuan is also a yellow-skinned person. As for what the "Qianlong Team" is doing now, Li Huamei's big and bright people, after the goalkeeper, naturally disdain to be with such people! It's just that the gentleman had no friends and no evil voice. Li Huamei didn't intend to save the white ghosts, which was just gone.
Li Huamei now encounters a British ship at sea. Since he cannot escape, he naturally chooses to go up to the generals and kill him.
She is not concerned now, where she was originally, where she is.
Finally escaped the "Elona" on the shipwreck island, and randomly parked on the edge of an island.
The exhausted crew members, with the encouragement of Lu Yuan and John Walkerman, lifted the residents of the bottom of the ship one by one to the deck, let them breathe the fresh air, and see the sun!
Each of these people is weak, and the life of the warehouse for more than a week is comparable to the torture of a water tank. It makes many people stiff and cannot even walk normally. Fortunately, the preparatory measures were in place, at least no one died on the road.
To say what these people hate most, the safety rope invented by Lu Yuan definitely ranks first. Of course, the favorite is also this safety rope, which makes these people have no serious injuries.
People who basked in the sun, ate some food, and recovered some physical strength a little. At Lu Yuan ’s suggestion, they took a small boat rotation and boarded the desert island beside the boat.
Deserted islands are like the vast majority of small islands in the Caribbean Sea. They are small in area and have no fresh water or a sheltered harbor. Even if they say food, even small animals are lacking. At most, you can find a few green coconuts ... but these people are still eager to go to the island, and the green coconuts are also very happy to eat.
When some people touch the sand. He just cried so dark that he couldn't stop.
these people. The shortest were all trapped on the shipwreck island for five years. Now they have defeated the sea **** Collebso and re-entered the ground. They suddenly felt God ’s favor one by one-this was said by Father Padley There is no better missionary time than this! ——He lived on Shipwreck Island for 25 years and worked hard every day before turning half of the residents into Protestants. But just a short half day, this number became three-quarters.
The results are very gratifying.
The old shipbuilder Henrik didn't get off the boat, he beat it up and down with a hammer. Checking the condition of the entire ship after the storm, and complaining from time to time with dissatisfaction. However, Lu Yuan looked at him with a smile, in fact, he should be extremely satisfied. Twenty years of accumulated creations, the collision sparks of the wisdom of the two eras, through the extreme test of the divine storm, Lu Yuan believes that the "Elona" is the most perfect work in his life!
none of them.
At this time, the first officer appointed by Lu Yuan, Bald John John Walkman came towards him sitting on the bow and sat down directly beside him.
Since this week. Except for Lu Yuan and Bob on the whole ship, John had the least rest. Lu Yuan knew that he had never rested for more than two hours and always rushed to the deck in times of danger. Looking at his now black and thin look, Lu Yuan smiled. Take the initiative to reach out and shake hands.
"It's hard! Dear John, do you have any plans next?".
Now basically equal to the destination, Lu Yuan began to arrange the destination of these people.
Lu Yuan never thought of leaving this group of people. Although they are extremely potential sailors. But as Lu Yuan said before, they are all rich people. In the future, he will still be a shareholder of a large chain loan shark. Do n’t say that the reason “the son of a thousand gold ca n’t sit down” is to stay on the shipwreck island for so long. They do need a good rest and enjoy life.
So Lu Yuan ’s idea was to send each one back to where he wanted to go, let the loan sharks shop open, and then recruit a group of sailors again and again. By that time, as little as Reggie Reginald, as large as the British and East India companies, our family came to calculate the general ledger!
"That's what I want to say, Captain!" John nodded and looked at him sincerely. "If you don't have a suitable first officer, I want to stay."
"Hi! John, if you stay, I'm welcome, of course. But you know, what I'm going to do next ... is mainly against the British! And, you are a rich man now, why would you take risks with me?" Pointing far away at John's body suit, "I think you might expect to return to the Navy and then retire as a naval officer. By the way, I don't know what position you used to be?"
"Artillery officer ... Captain." He sat there for a military salute, very solemn, indicating that he didn't care much. "The British have come to the island hundreds of times, but they never thought of transporting other Britishs. So I'm not about whether you are playing an English or a Spanish. The moment I was in a shipwreck, I died. The rest Time, I want to follow you, what a vigorous undertaking. "
"family?"
"No."
"Well, welcome to join! John." Lu Yuan reached out and the two shook hands again. John didn't know where to find two tin glasses of rum and gave it to Lu Yuan.
"Haha, thank you!" Lu Yuan took over and took a big sip.

————————
As the two reached an oral agreement, Lu Yuan could already see John's detailed attributes.
He just looked at it a little bit, and couldn't help but say "Wow!" John's attributes are the best among the lieutenants he has ever seen. In the artillery command, he is accurate 74 and maneuvering 85. Apart from himself, Lu Yuan has hardly seen anything higher than his attributes. What's more, it also has an active and three passive artillery skills! This greatly compensated for the shortcomings of Lu Yuan's inability to perform both driving and artillery command.
As for personal strength, John at the peak of silver seems to be good at using a musket, and he also has a skill to command the rifle volley when he is on board ... This is a good helper to kill and set fire!
"You guys, look good?" Father Padley came over. Although he wanted to pretend to be serious, he couldn't stop the smile on the corner of his mouth.
"You look too!" Lu Yuan nodded. "Is there anything? The priest."
"Oh ..." Padley looked at John awkwardly, but prevented him from leaving. "No, John, please stay, I need you to be a witness." Then he turned to face Lu Yuan, "Mr. Captain, can I ask you a question?".
"Please say."
"Will you insist on strictly implementing the freedom of faith clause on your ship?". He took a serious look at Landing Far's expression, as if to tell whether he would tell lies.
Lu Yuan nodded without hesitation, "Actually, my clause is" Do not mess with faith ", well, let's say we have freedom of faith. I insist!"
"Then please allow me to stay on your boat!" He saluted the landing, "As long as you continue to abide by the agreement between us, I will assist you in dealing with religious issues and healing patients."
"Why? Father ... I guess your property is enough to build a small church for yourself, isn't that your dream?".
"After this time of thinking ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ I want to write a paper on freedom of faith, which is on your ship." He showed some embarrassed expressions, "If my book needs to be published , My property is still missing, I hope you can provide some funding. "
"Not less than 50,000 pesos!" Lu Yuan directly threw a sponsorship number, looking at the surprised expression of Father Padley, he extended his hand with a smile, "Welcome to join!"
"I think we need a drink." John on the side suggested.
"Of course", Lu Yuan brought out a bottle of red wine and three glasses out of thin air, everyone is surprised at this hand. "For two good news in a day ..."
Before he finished speaking, two gunshots from the other side of the island interrupted what he said.
