"Solid ammunition loading, raise the muzzle, fix, put!"
Boom! Boom, boom!
Rolling thunder, red bullets flew out of one side of the sandbar like water, fell to the other side, and splashed water to cover the sky.
This is the third day of shelling Bimini.
For three consecutive days, the golden deer and Eros alternated on both sides, and the two ships alternated in an orderly manner to project ammunition to the shelter. The average density was maintained at about one side saturation every 30 minutes. There were not many shells and the actual killing was very limited.
But this 24-hour continuous shelling undoubtedly brings great mental pressure to the safe haven, especially those poor boats who can''t get a berth.
In three days, there were four slups, two skunas sank, one skuna and three brigantines were injured, and the remaining ships were trembling and afraid to enter or retreat.
Once a brave man tried to negotiate with the three eyed crows at the mouth of the Bay, but when he saw the pirates hanging all over the hull and almost exposed to oil, they hurried back and didn''t dare to make a negotiation request to the demon ship.
The pirates have also tried to do their duty as a host, such as driving away the irresponsible bastards who throw shells outside the sandbar, even temporarily.
For the first time, Alves and Eros accepted their advice peacefully and left for about two hours.
The second time, the golden deer rushed to the rescue from the bay mouth, and the two sides had a brief but fierce exchange of fire across the sandbar.
The hull of the Eros was hit with 12 pounds, and the two pirate ships led by lame ROMI were greatly damaged. One of the brigantines was blown off the main mast by acharin, and almost couldn''t escape back to the berth.
Since then, the haven has completely lost the action of counterattack.
They endured, endured, endured... Waiting for the advice of Drake chamber of Commerce, but Lorraine didn''t say a word from beginning to end.
Until today.
Aimlessly sprinkled another piece of projectile, and acharin looked at his harvest with a looking glass.
The possibility of such shelling hitting the target is almost nil, but as long as they are not in the berth, the possibility of those merchant ships being directly hit by shells is also exactly the same.
No one can be spared by technology. In the safe haven of wind and waves, God is the only object that businessmen can rely on.
Unfortunately, this round of shelling completely hit the air.
Acharin looked at the mirror bored, and suddenly saw a small submachine boat with a cross in the bow.
"I am badigya zuanka, President of the tuspanzuanka chamber of Commerce, a serious Spanish businessman and a practical speaker in the current safe haven."
A noble man in fine clothes stood on the boat and shouted to the freeboard of the golden deer.
"You are not real pirates, are you? For God''s sake, I ask to meet your commander."
……
More than three hours later, zuanka and three other representatives of businessmen of different nationalities were taken to the three eyed crow by the golden deer.
The ship still lies in the middle of the bay mouth. From the starboard side facing the internal sea, we can''t see the terrible human flesh hull on the port side. We can only see the gun deflector support disorderly supported on the deck and the limited pirate crew sailors hanging on the mast.
One of the most familiar to businessmen is the highest hanging assaros.
A merchant representative exclaimed, "God! That''s asarus, the deputy head of cotton Jack. Is he dead? A seagull was pecking his face, but it seemed that he didn''t respond at all!"
"He has a reaction..." zuanka opened his eyes in horror. "His feet are shaking. He can''t make a stronger struggle just because he is dying..."
The businessmen who had been taken the lead climbed up the soft ladder prepared for them and saw today''s second acquaintance chenory on the deck.
Zuanka blinked: "Captain chenori, are you..."
"I just threw myself into the arms of justice!" Chenery patted his angular chest. "I applied to serve Drake chamber of Commerce. For justice, I would not hesitate to start as a small sailor. Although master Drake has not accepted my request, I have been allowed to move freely on the ship. In the next step, I should get a valuable contract!"
"Ah... Congratulations." zuanka subconsciously glanced at asaros on the tip of the mast, looked at the refreshing chenori, and asked in a low voice, "where is president Drake?"
"The Lord is waiting for you in the restaurant," Chenery thought. "I''ve been waiting for three days."
A line of five people walked slowly along the side, and Chenery opened the hatch like a attentive servant and welcomed the merchant Representatives into the dining room.
Standard negotiating posture.
There was a long table in the middle of the restaurant. On one side of the table sat three men and two women, while on the other side four seats were reserved.
Lorraine stood up in a clean tuxedo with a smile and introduced to zuanka and others.
"I''m Lorraine Drake, President and chairman of Drake chamber of Commerce in Great Britain. Ms. henna yesla and miss Noah Sara are shareholders of the association, and Mr. Richard Leonard is vice president and shareholder of Kingston Caribbean branch."
"And Mr. Pedro, I think you should look familiar, because he is a smuggler who makes a living in Bimini."
Of course zuanka knows Pedro.
Pedro, who is also a Spanish businessman on Bimini Island, was originally introduced to lame ROMI.
Their wives are also distant cousins. From the perspective of the wife family, the relationship between the two sides is as close as the direct and collateral families in the family!
Such a close relationship
Zuanka''s anger was hard to calm. He stared at Pedro''s face like a snake staring at a frog: "it''s worthy of being a kind-hearted master Pedro... I don''t know when you met President Drake? It''s too stingy not to introduce your relatives."
Pedro dodged his eyes weakly: "yes... I was persuaded by Mr. Drake on my way to Bimini. This... Badigya, you know we don''t meet much..."
"But you can at least inform my wife!"
"Even my wife doesn''t know about it..."
Lorraine clapped uninteresting: "well, well, I didn''t expect you two to be relatives. But today is a formal meeting. Can you keep your family for a short time after the meeting?"
It''s as if the representatives of businessmen are qualified to say no.
Zuanka honestly took the businessmen to their seats. When Lorraine sat down, he couldn''t wait to speak.
"President Drake..."
Lorraine turned her face to Haina as if she hadn''t heard it, and Leonard coughed softly.
"Because the normal trade routes of the chamber of commerce were threatened, with the permission of the supreme glory of Great Britain, Drake chamber of Commerce cleaned up the illegal nests on the routes."
"Operation Bimini is an integral part of this campaign."
Zuanka rolled her eyes and was forced to cater to her desire to refute.
"Your Chamber of Commerce upholds justice and is a model for all businessmen in the civilized world. However..."
"After three days of clean-up and suppression operations, up to now, there are still 29 pirate ships in the safe haven, including one Galen class 5, one Bagh, one brig, eight brigantins, twelve skuna, and six other types of single mast hulls."
Zuanka''s face suddenly changed: "President Drake..."
Lorraine pointed his finger at Leonard without even looking back.
Zuanka can only bear to go to Leonard: "Vice President Leonard, the pirate ships of cotton Jack are only holy Anne, black goat, Irian, rogrigues and Orlando, a total of five ships, and the rest are all innocent merchant ships!"
"Innocent?" Lennard straightened his clothes. "Pirates are the cancer of human civilization and the enemy of all justice. Trading with pirates is a Criminal Act expressly prohibited by all civilized countries. Your laws, including Spain, will protect your life and legitimate property, but will not protect your illegal wealth on Bimini island."
"But..." zuanka gritted his teeth. "We can join hands with pirates. We have 29 ships and thousands of people. You can''t stop this force!"
"It seems that you are threatening me." Lorraine suddenly broke in and put on a huge hat for zuanka. "But you have to know that the premise of effective threat is that these thousands of people and 29 ships have the consciousness of sacrificing their lives for you."
"Do you know why I didn''t let chenory go to the island to persuade him to surrender? After you offered to contact, you insisted that British, French and American businessmen must be accompanied by representatives?"
"Because I''m a law-abiding businessman."
Lorraine stood up with a smile, walked around the table and put on zuanka''s shoulder.
"You see, I took my privation certificate from the governor''s office and hung it in front of you, just to make you understand that all my actions have the sacred and formal authorization of Great Britain."
"My plunder is legal, gentlemen. It is also just to eliminate pirates. Justice and legality are the truth of this operation."
"Let''s make a long story short."
Lorraine straightened up and began to pace behind the representatives of the businessmen.
"Drake''s authorization for privatisation does not include the British, so the British people and ships can leave safely. If there are any accidental injuries in the shelling of the previous three days, please count them to me, and I will ask the new continent fleet and the governor''s office of Jamaica to testify and give appropriate and excellent compensation, even if you are wrong."
"France is the enemy of Britain in the new world, but as Drake chamber of Commerce, we have a good relationship with the French colonial authorities. So I will forgive the French people and ships, but I''m sorry for the previous accidental injury. That''s probably what your God means."
"Then there are the Americans, the enemy of Great Britain and the motherland of cotton Jack. I will be merciful and ask my French friends to send you to the North American continent unharmed, but I deserve your ship and wealth."
"Finally, Spain..." Lorraine went back to her seat, sat down and looked at zuanka more softly. "Go to war according to your meaning. You could have been treated like Americans, and even take part of your wealth because of Mr. Pedro''s just actions. However, you betrayed my kindness."
"I''m sorry, really sorry, President zuanka."
