It wasn't until daybreak that the privateering captains, who had received their respective missions, left the "Nemesis" with deep thoughts.
Edward the Redbeard was the only one left in the huge war conference room.
He clasped his hands and put them on the table, looking out the window at the port city that was gradually getting busier. There was no love that a congressman should have in his eyes.
There is only endless indifference and ambition.
“No matter how hard you struggle, it’s useless, Iron Anchor Bay will soon become a thing of the past!
Plan No. 1: seize the position of warlord, cooperate with internal and external forces to capture Iron Anchor Bay, eliminate free pirates in the North Sea, and seize the great secret treasure guarded by the people of the bay.
Plan No. 2: If Plan No. 1 encounters obstacles, all the stubborn Beidiwan residents who stick to their traditions will be directly destroyed! "
Even in the eyes of Edward Redbeard, a veteran pirate with a long history of crimes, the Northland Bay residents of Iron Anchor Bay who have always adhered to their traditions have violated too many taboos.
As the most stubborn pirate group on the east coast, they have violated the interests of all maritime powers in the Age of Discovery;
When all the big pirates, including the Barbary pirates, gradually left the Old World, they still clung to Iron Anchor Bay, slapping the navies of various countries in the face;
They do not accept the church’s belief reform and stubbornly worship Woden, the [god of prophecy, kingship and wild hunting] who has long had no miracles;
Finally, and most importantly, is the prophecy said to have been made by Worden himself.
——The glory of the people of Beidiwan will be reawakened by blood and flames, and they will rule this continent!
"If I were one of those high-ranking bishops and kings, I wouldn't be able to tolerate the existence of such a group of people.
Even if I drive you away and you won’t leave, I have no choice but to pull out this nail! "
Until this time, only Redbeard knew the preliminary plan of the Hattings Admiralty.
Every winter, huge storms blow inexplicably across the North Sea.
The duration is from November to January of the following year, and the peak is in December.
During this period, most sailing ships on the North Sea will follow tradition and try not to go out.
Because strong winds and high waves would cause the bottom gunports to rise due to waves, they were afraid to use them. It was not unheard of for an entire fleet to be ruined in extremely bad and extreme weather.
It is now November 2, 1471, Silver Age.
Unless they brave the rough waves and cross the North Sea, the pirates meeting at Anchor Bay will be trapped here for the next two to three months.
At that time, the entire Anchor Bay will become a huge secret room and cage!
It is also the time when the plan actually begins to be executed.
As a trump card, York will bring a "natural disaster" to Anchor Bay that has been proven by the Red and White Rose War and is absolutely irresistible to mortals and will harvest everything.
How does Anchor Bay compare to Lancaster?
There is no way to lose this battle!
But before that, in addition to gaining legal control, he and the privateer captains also needed to start preparations in advance.
——Collect the flesh, blood and souls of the people of the North Bay.
“Not sure why group-specific elements are needed though.
But you can guess that the orthodox extraordinary series will definitely not use these things, they are just used to display some kind of [forbidden knowledge].
By the way, less than twenty years have passed since the dark millennium of the church's high-pressure rule, and now even the royal family has begun to fall?
The attitude of the church, at least the bishop of the Diocese of Hattings, is also somewhat intriguing. "
Thinking of this, Redbeard's face became a little gloomy:
“I had just summoned the privateer captain to prepare for action when I encountered a fatal attack.
Could it be that the fact that I summoned... [Ripper] and [Faceless Man] to collect elements of the Bay people and test the life and death of the warlord [Child Guardian] Dennis was exposed?
It shouldn't be. "
Well, a group of assassins who have suddenly become famous in Anchor Bay recently:
[Gunpowder Artist], [Ripper], [Faceless Man], [Wild Hunt]...most of them actually have origins.
[Wild Hunt] is Byron's vest; [Gunpowder Artist] is the indigenous force of the Bay people; and the rest are unknown to the swords thrust out by careerists.
These guys, who are pirates by profession, don't play their cards according to the normal routine at all, and there is no fuel-saving light at all.
Even elections that symbolize civilization are inevitably stained with blood.
Of course, this is also related to the disappearance of the Pirate King, the unclear physical condition of the governor, and the serious decline of the [Pirate Code].
The people of the Bay finally declined.
Redbeard rang the bell and called the first mate who was standing outside the door to come in.
“Whether there is exposure or not, we have to move faster.
The privateer captains have already set off with the sacrifices to prepare for the summoning ceremony. The arrows are ready, and they will also be fully launched here.
Two tasks are now assigned to you.
First, in addition to the privateering alliance, continue to recruit free pirates to help me. The bigger the momentum, the better.
Secondly, didn’t those losers want me to help trap and kill the assassin hiding in the dark?
Let Ripper and the Faceless Man take action, find the [Wild Hunt] and kill him!
I suspect today's attacker may be the [Gunpowder Artist].
The two of them appeared in Iron Anchor Bay at about the same time, and they were all targeting us. Maybe they were in the same group. "
The first mate bowed in response.
"Yes, Captain!
The Ripper and the Faceless Man should really prove with their actions that we are not wasting resources by giving them two [Strange Item Octopus Silver Coins] that can counter divination.
[Wild Hunt] is just a first-order servant. Even if he is the best among the first-order, if he wants to counterattack the fallen second-order, it is enough for three people to besiege him together.
I'm sure they won't disappoint you. "
The first mate obeyed the order confidently.
Behind him, red-bearded Edward nodded slowly, with a bit of piety in his eyes:
“I commit murder and arson, but I have always been a devout believer!
God has endowed us with human rights and souls are equal, but only the church is qualified to define who is a human being in this world.
[The Creator] will bear my sins and forgive my transgressions.
Please bless me to pioneer and create great achievements for you! "
...
"What? Before that stormy night, the York family issued an order to massacre the Lancastrian prisoners?"
After watching the fun, Byron returned to Bruch's room and found that as his injury improved rapidly, he had regained consciousness.
The appearance that he had destroyed by himself was completely restored, turning into a tough guy as solid and reliable as marble.
His mouth was clumsy and hard to express, but his eyes were filled with the surprise of unexpected reunion after almost being separated forever.
Some time ago, although this [Guardian Knight] was seriously injured, he still retained a clear consciousness and knew what was happening outside.
After waking up, neither brother had a mother-in-law personality, so the process of exchanging heartfelt messages was omitted.
With the qualities of a [Guardian Knight] and a professional soldier, he immediately shared the information he had with Lord Byron.
"Yes, when I was caught and tortured by those traitors, I overheard them telling a piece of news.
On the day before the stormy night, that is, October 11, Edward IV of the York family issued an order for the massacre of the nobles.
Kill all of our captives.
Now it seems more like a blood sacrifice with unknown meaning..."
With Bruch's telling, the answer to a mystery that had lingered in his heart for a long time was finally slowly revealed.
Is that why, under the influence of an unknown presence, only Lancaster was the only one in the entire fleet who lined up to jump overboard that night?
Others were not affected?
On October 11, the leader of the York family, now King Edward IV, suddenly issued an order that was completely inconsistent with the rules of war.
"Spare the common soldiers and kill all Lancastrians captured in the war."
And when the soldiers buried the corpses, they found that they seemed to have been dried by the weather, with no trace of moisture left.
Byron, who had already performed a black witchcraft ceremony himself, the first thing that came to his mind was: sacrifices!
Using the blood souls of some members of the same family to lock down an entire family, there is probably no way they can escape, no matter whether they were on a naval battle battlefield or not.
Then here comes the problem.
What level of being can use this blood sacrifice positioning to easily break through the extremely high-level [Silver Law] protection of the royal family?
When he thought about that terrifying thing, perhaps swimming on the bottom of the North Sea, Byron's heart beat faster.
at the same time.
[Secret: The Conspiracy of the Admiralty (historical influence 20, solution density 35%)] has a solution density of 35%, which instantly jumped to 56%.
The solution density of [Secret: Shadow of the Red and White Rose War (historical influence 31, solution density 20%)] has also been increased to 30%.
“The connection between the two events is obvious.
Could it be said that York still wants to repeat what happened in the Strait of Dover in Anchor Bay? "
Byron immediately thought of the huge lighthouse he saw near him on the day he was promoted to [Storm Knight] and was dragged down into the Sea of Origin by an unknown thing.
Is there a possibility that the sight of that thing has already fallen here?
Instinct told him to run quickly, but reason told him that he couldn't escape at all.
Finally, his eyes flashed fiercely.
"I must know their plans at all times. Without further ado, I will find an unlucky guy from the Privateering Alliance to replace me tonight!"
