Reborn As a Pirate

v2 Chapter 649: Capture the king

The return of the first formation meant that the Bloody Mary had completely lost the opportunity to escape.

   An hour and a half later, Valkyrie arrived at the waiting position 3 kilometers south of the cotton cloth regiment.

   After another 15 minutes, Catalina issued a combat order, and the first formation circled forward from the northwest, and the entire fleet was blocked in front of the route of the cotton regiment.

   The thirty-two-pounder gun of the White Pelican fired first in this blocking battle. The shells hit between the two Brigantines, and the cotton cloth regiment began to disintegrate.

  The gap between the ship and the ship, the gap between the fleet and the fleet, the gap between command and command......

   At the beginning of the war, Jack Cotton tried to use his quantitative advantage to open the way.

   The 17 ships were divided into two, and five Brigantines were used to monitor the movement of Valkyrie. The 12 ships with stronger firepower, including the Bloody Mary, all rushed towards the first formation.

  Favna made the Mistra and Guna rush forward, and plunged into the center of the enemy line 200 meters apart.

   The 24-pound short-range main gun of the second-generation Samurai displayed extremely strong destructive power in the center of the enemy line. The 20-point fight wounded three pirate ships and broke one.

   In contrast, Cotton Jack, although more shells hit the two ships at close range, it is difficult for naval guns with small calibers to cause effective damage to the armor covered by the second generation of samurai.

   Brunhild and Jelshkogul also squeezed up from the outside with their respective wing ships, like a school of sharks, beating the lone enemy ships from near and far.

   45 minutes into the war, the fore mast of the Guna of the first formation was destroyed, the Mistral was broken in the stern, the Frigate Bird and the Scarlet Sakura were broken, and Brunhild and Jerschkogul were damaged to varying degrees.

  Cotton Jack, a Bagh and a Brigentin were sunk, a Galen expelled and two Brigs and a Brigentin were destroyed, and nearly half of their combat power was lost.

   Valkyrie suddenly cut into the battlefield from due south, and the first round of full shelling caused heavy damage to the Brigentin fleet opposite him, one sinking and one wounding.

The cotton cloth regiment completely collapsed, and the surviving warships fled in all directions. Favna sent Mistra, Brunhild and the white pelicans to entangle the Bloody Mary, and Jelshkogul and the Oleander chased another ship. Galenic in perfect condition.

   In another 30 minutes, Brunhild's thrown a chain bullet hit, the Bloody Mary mainmast was interrupted, and Valkyrie lowered the sail to take the ship.

   At 6:17 p.m., Lorrain kicked Cotton Jack's captain's room, and for the first time saw the legendary pirate king who had been grudges against him since the smuggling period.

  ……

   Cotton Jack VII, or Alessandro Dirabi, was a fat middle-aged man, about 170 cm tall, with a big waist, thick dark brown curly hair and an exaggerated beard that was braided enough.

   His clothes are neat and luxurious, with black and blue as the main colors. The edges of the color blocks are decorated with shiny gold lines, and the collar corners and cuffs can't be wrinkled at all.

   This makes him look less like a pirate, his facial features and chin do not look like his rounded features, he doesn't see much cruelty, and is more treacherous, just like an unruly shameless businessman.

   In fact, Alessandro Dirabi is indeed an excellent pirate businessman.

   As the pirate king of the Caribbean, his most well-known power is not in the flagship, not in the fleet, not in the invincible fighting skills and shooting skills, but in the bustling black port operated by him.

   He should be the strangest pirate king outside of Lorraine in the post-golden age.

   I think that the Black Port of Bimini created a brand-new model of self-marketing stolen goods by the great pirates. The income of the Port of Tertuga fell precipitously because of him, and the Brotherhood of the Sea almost fell into disrepair.

   However, he finally failed to create an era, because in the critical period of his approaching transformation, the Battle of Lorraine ransacked the Black Port of Bimini.

   After the fall of Bimini, Alessandro Durabi also fell into a low period that lasted for several years.

He hated Lorraine deeply and insisted on maintaining an uncompromising state of war with Drake. The cotton cloth regiment was severely damaged and disintegrated several times in the subsequent pirate wars. Between 1779 and 1780, countless young pirates wanted to step on it. His head became famous.

   But he survived after all.

   Two association wars, the Brotherhood of the Sea fled from Turtle Island to Nassau, and Blackbeard, who also had a deep hatred with Lorraine, aspired to become a recognized leader of pirates.

At the invitation of Blackbeard, Alessandro Di Rabbi took over the operation and management of Nassau’s Black Port, and it took only one year to make the beach less than 20 kilometers away from the civilian port of Nassau a Pirate of the Caribbean The new core of trade.

  Commercial devil Cotton Jack was officially resurrected, and he was transformed from a destroyer of the empire order to a pirate Zhongxing minister.

   The prosperous private port of pirates quickly declined, and the Brotherhood once again became the best choice for pirates to sell their stolen goods.

The    Cotton Jack Pirate Group also quickly recovered its former strength.

Pirates from all walks of life came to vote because of his good camp. At its peak, Alejandro Diraby had four fleets of 62 ships under the command of the White Flag, Blackbeard, and Black Baron pirates. Deservingly the strongest team in the second tier.

   But such a good day did not last long.

   Battle of Basseterre, Blackbeard's prestige was greatly damaged, and Pavloumi fled to South America. Alessandro Di Rabbi did not know what he had eaten wrong, and on the third day of the hanging by Derriqui, he suddenly declared war on the severely injured Blackbeard, in an attempt to replace Blackbeard as the protector of the Sea Brotherhood.

   Blackbeard, who was worried and had nowhere to vent his anger, challenged him. In the sea of ​​the Exuma Islands, he fought the cotton regiment three times in a row. Alessandro Dirabi lost three times in three battles, and Bloody Mary was captured twice.

   If it hadn’t been for the black port of Nassau that had become the most important tool for Blackbeard’s looting and making money, Alejandro Diraby would have been exiled by the angry Blackbeard on an uninhabited island and waited to die.

   In short, Alessandro Di Rabbi is a peculiar pirate, an excellent businessman, and to some extent, a wonderful combination of lucky and unlucky.

   Lorraine saw the pirate king's token in his ornament, and he couldn't help but cocked his mouth: "I didn't expect that greed like a black beard would leave them in your hands. Did you forget?"

Alejandro Di Rabbi stared at Lorraine bitterly: "The bottom line of the Brotherhood at Sea is that the pirate king runs the black port of the Brotherhood, and other big pirates are unwilling to sell their stolen goods under the power of Blackbeard, so ...This is the result of compromise."

"Compromise..." Lorraine closed his sword and wiped the blood on his face. "It sounds like a lot of interesting things happened to me that I didn't know about the Brotherhood's move to Nassau. The pirates actually learned to compromise and to be like Civilized people solve problems on the table."

   "We always know how to solve problems on the table!"

"Really?" Lorraine reached out and took off the token, and threw it to Edley by the hatch. "Cotton Jack... Your Royal Highness, you, Henry the Hound, and Bonnet the Viking attacked America like a lunatic. The most prosperous Massachusetts Bay has massacred hundreds of people on the territory of the United States, and also kidnapped dozens of wealthy businessmen with status and status."

"You only did such an unreasonable thing, and in a blink of an eye you can say without shame that you are a sensible civilized creature..." Lorraine took a deep breath~lightnovelpub.net~ Your Highness, Pirate Not for you, you should be a politician. "

   Alessandro flushed: "If it wasn't for Henry the **** hound, it's not useful..."

"Putting hopes on others is easy to be disappointing. You should have been mentally prepared for failing to sink Valkyrie." Lorraine smiled and sat down, crossed his fingers and sat across from Alessandro. "His Royal Highness, I am going to hang you on this boat."

   The sudden death announcement made Alessandro's cheeks twitch.

   He panicked completely, his previous composure disappeared.

   "Bai...Baizhi, you shouldn't directly execute me! Under the protection of the pirate code, I have the right to be exiled to the desert island!"

   "You don't have the right to choose the method of death." Lorraine said categorically, "On this sea, rights belong only to civilized people."

   "But I am a civilized man!" Alessandro shouted sharply, "I am a citizen of the United States, even the town councillor of Williamsburg, a real councillor!"

   "This is..." Lorraine opened his mouth in a different place, "Are you really a politician?"

   "Such as fake replacement, such as fake replacement!"

   Seeing Alessandro's flustered look, Lorraine was speechless. He frowned and weighed it in his heart. It took a long time to reorganize his thoughts.

   "Missing or being handed over to the United States." He said softly, "My choice depends on your performance, Mr. Congressman."

   "Now, please tell me, what is written on the mysterious paper that led to this operation..."
