The Final Evolutionary Quest! The Origin of the Black Pearl! Chapter 76: Recruiting Troops

Of course, Sheyan always remembered that the best quality of a superior person is to keep his word, so even though Dai Qisi seemed very cooperative, Sheyan did not forget to punish her in the end, and the punishment was in front of all the pirates. He was stripped naked, hung upside down from the mast and whipped five times with a whip made of shark skin!

For a woman, being stripped naked and hung upside down is already extremely humiliating.

What's more, he has to slap five whips on his young and beautiful body. You know, a whip made of shark skin will roll off a large piece of flesh when hit on the body. The pain and harm caused will naturally be engraved in people's hearts.

This is also a lesson to all pirates. Rewards and punishments are the best weapons for those in power to maintain their rule. Fortunately, the power of the source of life in Dai Qisi's body is very strong, so the injuries will heal quickly without leaving scars.

And she is not just a young lady. What has she not seen among the gypsy people? As an old woman, she has already experienced something more terrifying than this level of humiliation and punishment, so psychologically she It's bearable. I can only admit that I'm unlucky and grit my teeth and hold on. No matter how humiliated I am at this time, it's still better than having the face of an old woman at the age of seventeen or eighteen.

Soon, Sheyan reunited with the crew members who stayed behind on the Sam. After punishing Dai Qisi, he ordered everyone to board the ship. After those guys who stayed behind saw such a powerful five-masted quasi-legendary battleship, of course It's a morale booster.

On the one hand, Sheyan wanted to familiarize his men with how to control this big ship, and on the other hand, he was eager to complete the milestone of pirate captain and recruit people, so after asking the old sea dog, he sailed to another ship not far away called A temporary pirate port on Triangle Island.

Of course, I would like to mention the Vikings here in passing. In order to make up for their losses in battle, Fang Senyan gave them another three-masted ship that was originally used for logistics and transportation. Of course, this ship can also be used as a means of transportation. Incidentally, it is used to transport donated goods, supplies, etc. Save the Vikings shipping costs. Fang Senyan's other three-masted ship was originally converted into a cargo ship, so there was no problem in carrying the Vikings and their cargo back home. The Vikings were also quite satisfied with Sheyan's generosity. Both parties agreed to cooperate again if they have the opportunity in the future.

Along the way, the Dingyuan felt extremely stable when sailing. Wind and waves could not interfere with it at all. Fang Sheyan even tried to put a glass of water on the table, but the wave height was nearly four meters. Under such circumstances, the filled glass of water was not splashed at all, which shows its stability!

Because the pirate port of Triangle Island is only more than a day away from Port Royal, it must be far inferior to places like Tetuga. Triangle Island does not mean that there are islands forming a triangle, but because it is composed of three islands in the shape of a Chinese character.

If Tetuga was as prosperous as a provincial capital city, then Triangle Island would be similar to a "town" level. And it's still very desolate. The only artificial buildings on the island are seven or eight houses made of stones. When the anti-SI work in Port Royal was going smoothly, this was an uninhabited island. Even if you landed on the island, the only thing you could do was to knock down the stone house. But when Port Royal was more relaxed, time, then this is a paradise for criminals.

There was a reason why Sheyan rushed to Triangle Island at this time, because he had already received the news: the Norrington Group defeated the guys from the Sivalle Group, and Triangle Island was only a few hundred nautical miles away from the battlefield between the two sides. If the wind is favorable, it will only take a few hours.

The most important thing is that if the defeated pirates do not retreat to Triangle Island, they will have to travel at least thousands of sea miles to another Cape Bode to replenish fresh water. This is obviously unrealistic. Therefore, if there are no accidents on Triangle Island at this time, it should be a huge market. There are many pirates who sell guns, cannons, equipment, and sell themselves after defeat. This should be the place where Sheyan can best find manpower.

Although Dingyuan has become Fang Sheyan's flagship at this time, Sheyan's semi-scrapped Sam is also towed behind and not abandoned. If it works well, it can be sold for at least a few hundred even if it is used as a fishing boat. Thousands of pounds. When he was more than ten nautical miles away from the Triangle Island, he sent a few guys who originally belonged to the Siwale Pirate Group on a sloop to have a look.

Firstly, I wanted to see if Sivale was on the island. If the old man was here, it wouldn't be easy to poach people. After all, the prestige of the Pirate King is still there, and Sheyan's worship reputation at this time is still unable to compete with the Pirate King.

The first is to obtain first-hand current information and understand the general situation after the great sea battle at this time.

After a while, the pirates who went to explore the road returned. Almost panting and crawling, they knocked on the door of the captain's cabin:

"Boss, boss!! Let's go quickly. Sivale was seriously injured and unconscious. His eldest son was captured alive by Norrington. There were disagreements within the pirate group. There were many fights. Now it's like chaos up there. It’s time to recruit people.”

Although Sheyan was almost certain that Xiwale would not be on the island, he was still very happy after hearing the news and immediately ordered to move forward at full speed. I have to admit that when Fang Sheyan's newly snatched Dingyuan slowly sailed into Triangle Island, its unique and huge shape and the black pirate dragon flag flying on the mast were quite shocking. Powerful.

There is indeed a chaotic scene on Triangle Island. Although the entire Siwale pirate group is large, its organization is also quite loose. When it wins, it is a loose alliance with weak cohesion, relying on Siwale's two seven-masted ships and eight-masted ships. The five-masted ship held together forcefully and reluctantly. But once the core group loses its strength, it will inevitably fall into the dilemma of being scattered.

After Dingyuan docked, it immediately attracted the attention of many people. At this time, Sheyan continued to hide behind the scenes and did not come forward. Instead, he first sent those who were originally members of the Siwale Pirate Group to inquire about the news, obtain prices, obtain first-hand information, and then make a decision.

He believed that as soon as he showed up, or even didn't show up, many people would apply to join. However, Sheyan sternly warned the pirates that they were talking about father, mother, and wife, but they must not talk too much about things on the ship. speak! Otherwise, we must take care of our family!

At this time, the pirates on the ship regarded Fang Senyan's words as if they were gods, and naturally they did not dare to say a word in front of others. This only increased the curiosity of the pirates. After summarizing the information collected by the pirates, Sheyan was surprised to find that the extremely advanced cannons mentioned before were actually sold in this place!

In fact, although this kind of current high-tech thing is difficult to obtain, money can make a difference. It is not as difficult as imagined to buy one or two through the black market or on a small scale. If you want to carry out large-scale operations such as fleets, Changing clothes is quite difficult.

At this time, many pirates anchored on Triangle Island felt that they had no future in the future. The British navy, represented by Norrington, was too strong, so they had the idea of ​​​​washing their hands in a golden basin. In addition, some captains might have died in the battle, and their men were popular. They scattered the items and sold them to divide the spoils. So to sum up, there are actually thirty-eight hard-covered direct-fire cannons for sale on this island. They were purchased from more than a dozen sellers, and most of them were at high prices. Because I was eager to cash in, it was much cheaper than what I could get from the auction house.

After Fang Sheyan heard the report, he ordered the acquisition without hesitation! At this time, the Dingyuan was an extremely strong ship. He even heard some pirates calling it an "unsinkable floating island", so it would naturally take advantage of the shelling battle. As the saying goes, strong ships and powerful guns must be the future trend!

As far as the current situation is concerned, it can be seen that there is no way to gain a speed advantage in the competition with the Black Pearl. So from another perspective, we can consider reducing the enemy's speed and use more hinged bombs to attack the Black Pearl. It is another way to use Pearl's mast and sail to slow down its speed, and then think of ways to prevent the other party from joining the ship. Of course, this places high demands on the gunner.

After spending about 30,000 pounds, Fang Senyan obtained seventeen cannons. After some thought, Fang Senyan built four gun arrays in groups of four, and then told the carpenters the principle of the slide rail system. Spike, ask him to start researching, so that if nothing unexpected happens, seventeen direct-fire cannons can bombard multiple directions at the same time!

However, it is a good thing that new equipment has been added, but new problems have emerged. Although the power of the direct-fire cannon is powerful, this cannon requires more manpower to control it, because Sheyan had previously considered the direction of the battle. It focuses on boarding battles, and the talents collected tend to be this way, so what is currently lacking is the kind of very good gunners.

And this is different from a sail operator. No matter how good a gun operator is, he has to rely on experience to load ammunition. In a fierce battle, adjust the position of each gun. If there is no computer correction for long-distance shooting, it can be said that the difference is a thousand miles. Even if the two guns are close together, the shooting parameters and ammunition loading The quantity is also different, so for now, a good gunner can only command two or three cannons in battle, so the more talents in this area, the better. ro! .
