Pirates: Knowledge is power
Chapter 16 Resistance Prisoners
"It's a pity..." Victoria clutched her skirt tightly, showing an expression of gritted teeth.
"It's all the fault of those navy! They rushed over at the last moment. Obviously, it would take at least five days for the navy to rush over after receiving the order from the G7 branch. However, the navy arrived in three days. The navy rushed ahead of schedule. It's so bad that all my previous preparations have been in vain! Even if they arrive one day late, this country is already mine!"
The untimely addition of the navy destroyed everything she had planned for several years, and all her previous efforts were in vain.
To say she didn't hate the Navy would be a lie.
Victory was clearly around the corner, but the navy was completely shattered.
It can't be said that Victoria's planning was not enough, it can only be said that she was very unlucky.
It was incredible that the navy, which was always procrastinating on certain things, could arrive early. It also completely disrupted all her arrangements.
Drum nodded with deep understanding. The new world is the new world of pirates.
The role of the navy in the new world is not so much a partner of justice, but more of a stick that stirs up trouble.
Apart from anything else, Drum quite admired this girl for her courage and resourcefulness.
She was able to secretly help the rebels without being discovered, so she must have been well prepared.
In a world where pirates are full of reckless men, but where the intelligence work is not in line with the situation, the Lacjaon Victoria in front of him can be regarded as a rare wise general.
Helping her and letting her stay with him can be considered a good helper.
"In the Kingdom of Dorosa, women often have a low status. Without a male noble as a backer, life will be very difficult. And you killed my backer, so you must take me away."
"Your backer...him?" Drum thought for a moment, then pointed doubtfully at Duke Leon who fell on the stage.
One is as beautiful as a queen, and the other is as ugly as an old boar with wrinkles that can kill a fly. How could these be a father and daughter?
Victoria glanced at the fallen Duke Leon and nodded with slight disgust.
Victoria also disliked this ugly father, but the situation in the Dorosa Kingdom forced her to rely on this "father".
"He is my nominal father and the Duke of this kingdom."
Durham was a little surprised. He killed the other party's father, but Victoria reacted like this.
It was neither cold nor indifferent, as if the person who died was an outsider and had nothing to do with her.
But Drum also heard the meaning of her words. The nominal father, it seems that the relationship between the nobles of Dorosa Kingdom is very messy.
As if she guessed what Dram was thinking, Victoria took the lead in explaining:
"My mother and him are a marriage of interests. Naturally, there is not much affection between them. As for Duke Leon, I have already said that he is my nominal father. As for whether he is my father, It doesn’t matter at all, I just hope that my destiny can be in my own hands.”
Durham stared intently into Victoria's eyes.
Victoria did not back down at all and looked at Dram.
She was actually betting. Victoria didn't know Dram, but that didn't stop her from taking a bet.
Victoria noticed Drum when he appeared on the ship.
Especially the moment he takes action, even the Vice Admiral of the G7 branch may not be able to stop him.
With strong strength and a character that was not as ruthless as the real pirates, Victoria decided to put her future fate and life on the line.
As long as she succeeds, she can escape her subsequent fate.
Victoria had secretly supported the rebels before and gave them a lot of help.
However, with the intervention of the Navy, it failed to develop as she expected, but it also helped her to buy time.
Because the fiancé chosen by Duke Leon for her died in the revolution of the resistance army.
In this case, even if it does not succeed, her next wedding date will be greatly extended, which will give her more time.
During this period, Victoria didn't think about secretly supporting another rebel army.
But she gave up the idea just after thinking about it.
The former leader of the resistance was a strong man who only appeared once in the Dorosa Empire in the past hundred years.
But such a strong man was like a child in front of the Vice Admiral, with almost no room to fight back.
Without such a strong man, it would be almost impossible for her to support another force that could compare with the resistance.
Even though Dram killed Duke Leon, women did not have the right to inherit the title in the Kingdom of Dorosa.
The title of Duke Leon will eventually only fall to the illegitimate sons of Duke Leon, and in the end the title will have nothing to do with her.
Once those illegitimate children inherit the title of Duke Leon, she, the eldest daughter of the original duke, will inevitably become a thorn in their side.
They would definitely try to expel her or disappear forever.
Now that this is the situation, Victoria, who was still hesitant at first, has completely made up her mind and will no longer stay in the Dorosa Kingdom.
"I believe your words for the time being, Lakjaon Victoria. You clean up this place. I want to sail this ship out of the port first."
After Drum finished his instructions, he prepared to go to the bridge. When he boarded the ship, he had already figured out the structure of the ship and naturally knew the location of the bridge.
But due to the lack of a helmsman and a spare crew, Drum had no choice but to control it himself.
"Wait a minute." Victoria called him.
"Anything else?"
Victoria pointed to the floor and said: "In the cabin of this ship, there is also a group of rebels who were demoted as slaves. Someone among them should be at the helm."
When Durham heard the news, he still hesitated.
Someone can take the helm and he can spend more time reading, which is actually quite good.
But the problem is the identity of this group of people, the defeated and captured rebels.
Keeping them could be a hidden danger.
"No need. After we go to sea, give them a boat and let them leave."
To be honest, Dram didn't want to use these rebels.
The good and evil in the navy are mixed, not to mention their resistance to the army.
Victoria was not too surprised by Durham's answer.
After all, she is also a suspicious person and cannot easily trust a stranger, especially when it comes to matters related to her own safety.
Sailing on the sea is not a simple game.
Victoria stood there and vowed: "I can guarantee that they will not do anything stupid."
