Reborn As a Pirate

Three hundred and seventeenth crimes of civilization

Bluefields.

Bluefields is located in the middle of the east coast of the Nicaragua region. It is not only the largest port on the east coast of the region, but also the hub and center of the Royal Navy's mosquito coastal patrol mission.

On the afternoon of the 7th, the fleet directly under the Cangqing Dewdrop, which was absent, sailed into her sight of the horizon.

Yesterday, Lorraine accidentally picked up Leif in an aboriginal fishing village in Providencia.

This viking berserker with superb martial arts skills and a single-minded head survived the catastrophe. Not only did he find love there, he enjoyed the life of a fisherman for more than a year, and he also raised a five-year-old son by the way.

This kind of life experience of being a happy father will definitely not come with a serious blood relationship, but Leif and Jakari are true love, and it is also true love for this cheap son who started to follow Odin and the god of war Tyr without knowing much about it.

True love of nature and responsibility are both sides of the same coin. The Berserker has a responsibility, and the only request to board the ship is to let Lorraine resettle his family.

This is not difficult for Lorraine.

There is a group of Indians having a good time in Lucy's devil-infested manor, there are no more than one pair, and no less than one pair.

The little thing is far from the age at which his life is finalized. Whether he wants to graze with the Indians or become a sailor with Leif in the future, Lorraine has corresponding channels.

Even if their mother and son want to continue fishing, Lucy also has a vast private coast, and no one cares about the vast natural fishing grounds. The conditions are even more difficult than drinking water, and Providencia Island is saved for trade. Much better.

Carmen persuaded the woman named Jiekali to leave her hometown without much effort, and Cangqing Dew became their passenger ship. Early this morning, she parted ways with the main force and sailed back to the private port of Luxi under construction alone.

After setting up his family, Leif, who has no worries, became Lorraine's new charge captain. Barto continued to serve as the captain in the fleet, and his personal position was adjusted to the deputy admiral ship Eros.

It just so happened that Leonard was left behind in Lucy for infrastructure construction this time, and the half-toned Pierce was in charge of the Aphrodite. With Barto's full support, his psychological pressure finally eased a lot.

When the fleet arrived at Lucy Fields, Leif was standing beside Lorraine with a large fur shield harvested from Bimini Island and a Viking sword called The Uncrowned King.

Admiral, Lucy Fields is a small port. The depth of the shoal is only 3.65 meters even at high tide.

Even the standard Brigantines and Brigs have to be careful when entering the berth.

The anchorage of this port is one kilometer away from the coastline, which is a small island called Bluff on the right. There are nine mooring plank roads with a water depth of 9.6 meters, which can basically meet the entry and exit of all warships and large ships.

Lorraine looked at Leif strangely.

Uh, there's no other meaning... Leff, I always feel that you are not the kind of person who pays attention to these details.

Leif stroked his bare forehead honestly: The admiral's feeling is correct. I would not be able to understand hydrology in any other port. It was Bonet's business when I was on the SuperStar Gemini. When I arrived on your ship, It's your business.

Lorraine looked at him fixedly: Then here?

This is Lucy Fields, the capital of the Mosquito Coast. The British listed the Mosquito Coast as a protected area, which actually protected the Miskito Indian kingdom, and it just so happened that the natives of Providencia were also Miskitos. One of Skito's.

Since I got married with Jakali, I was probably worried that I would abandon their mother and son and run away one day. Whenever the village chief was free, he dragged old Abela to describe their great royal capital to me. Those just now are old Abela. Bella told me, listen to it every three days, I can't forget it even if I want to.

I can hear it, thank you for your hard work.

Lorraine perfunctorily comforted his charge captain, and ordered the fleet to turn around and head for the outer anchorage on Bluff Island.

In fact, Lorraine knew everything Leif said.

As the admiral and the first navigator of the direct fleet, he had already obtained most of the basic information about Lucy Fields and the Mosquito Coast through the Chamber of Commerce from the moment the destination was determined.

Central America was the first colony declared by the Spaniards, including Nicaragua, Honduras and Costa Rica, and the Pan-South Caribbean region was the exclusive back garden of the Kingdom of Spain for a long time.

Until Francis defeated the Armada.

With the rise of Britain and the fall of Spain, Great Britain began to extend its tentacles to Central America. It was in this port named Lucy Fields in 1601.

However, Spain in the early years was far from harmless to humans and animals as it is now. They continued to harass Lucy Fields and its surrounding areas through the navy and subordinate pirates and privateers, and they were planning to completely drive the British into the sea from land.

So the British supported the Miskitos, the most powerful native Indians in the area, and in 1638 created a kingdom of the Miskitos recognized only in Great Britain, claiming that the entire east coast including Honduras and Nicaragua was It is the territory of the Miskito Kingdom, and it regards itself as the protector of freedom, independence, and justice, and has transformed from a colonizer to a protector.

The Mosquito Coast is the protection area of ​​Great Britain to the Miskito people, and it is also the border of the Miskito Kingdom.

The conflicting interests of Spain and Great Britain created this strange and peaceful Indian kingdom.

The Miskito people and some tribes related to her gathered and multiplied here, and established towns and villages dotted around.

The national tax and labor service serve their common master, His Majesty Oldman, King of the Miskitos, and His Royal Highness, the Regent appointed by the Governor of Jamaica. His Royal Highness is now named Clayton Dickens, and his military rank is only Army sergeant.

Rustic Indians...

For no reason, Lorraine thought of the Blackfoot tribe abandoned by the British in the Battle of New Orleans and the slave rebels in Lefrancois who were pushed into the abyss by him and Lechide.

The end of the Miskito people is almost doomed, those who do not believe in civilization are enslaved, and those who believe in civilization are betrayed, nothing more.

...

The Golden Deer sailed into the anchorage of the outer port vigorously, and Lorraine stepped on the plank to disembark and glanced at the desolate outer port.

There are not many ships in the outer harbor. There are nine plank roads and eighteen berths, only seven of which are occupied, and among them are three warships flying the Mi Zi flag, two of which are class 4 and one class 5.

Lorraine guessed that they were the fleet that Sir Parker had prepared for Nelson.

This is an obviously odd configuration.

Tier 4 ships are often used as the flagship of the formation for patrol missions in regional defense. They have strong firepower, large size, high defense, and slow response. In addition, their number of configurations is limited. It is almost unheard of for two ships to be organized together in a small formation.

But the main event this time is the landing operation.

Considering Major General Dahlin's desire for merit and victory, the number of the so-called small number of landing troops should not be less than two reinforced companies, a total of 240 infantry plus 4 land combat light artillery, in addition to at least 20 troops assigned to artillery artillerymen, and perhaps horses and carriages.

In this way, the large size of the fourth-tier ships has become an irreplaceable important advantage, and the co-organization of the two ships is a magic stroke that takes into account both transportation capacity and combat power.

As for the possible slow response of the fleet...

Anyway, Sir Parker must have known that Lorraine would join the battle with the newly formed direct fleet.

The fleet directly under the General Chamber of Commerce is characterized by lightness and flexibility. Once it is assigned to the Sea Fleet, the two parties will just form a task force consisting of two frigates, three destroyers and two frigates of different types. Its balance and stability Sufficient for most situations.

As expected of the old fox's abacus...

Lorraine muttered to himself, and when he looked up, he happened to see three heroic admirals coming hand in hand.

Nelson, here we come.
