"Who can tell me when reinforcements will arrive...James?"
Ferdinando, the commander-in-chief of the Spanish Southern Treasure Fleet, had completely lost the calmness and calmness of the day before. He sat on the bed with a disheveled head and dark circles under his eyes. He lowered his head and muttered in a voice that he could only hear... Finally But he placed his hopes on the mages accompanying the fleet. [No pop-up novel website] He looked at the mage James, looking forward to hearing some good news...
Unfortunately, the mage shook his head and continued to focus on the crystal ball in front of him. The crystal ball shimmers with white light, making it appear both mysterious and magical. But if you ignore the mage's pretense of regret and capture a mage who is affiliated with LeBron to interpret it for yourself, you will find that... the crystal ball says "Lead the southern fleet into the encirclement and wait for the situation to change."
All the officers who participated in the meeting were silent. In fact, they all despised Ferdinando, the fleet commander.
Since Ferdinando discovered the fleets in the north and south directions, he began to perform ugly performances, which became increasingly unbearable for these captains. After the delay, all the captains used the military emergency as an excuse to leave the flagship. The people present here are all inconspicuous little adjutants, and of course they will not play any role.
Among the treasure fleet on the southern route, there are too many large sailing ships that are slow and carry a lot of cargo. It is impossible to just throw them away.
So the entire fleet formed a circular formation and began to confront the British and French forces. Spain's formation was to hide all the bulky merchant ships in the middle, and use hard and bulky heavy Galenic galleons to erect a "city wall" on the outside.
The crystal ball is having an interesting conversation:
"Ferdinando can't hold on any longer..."
"Tell him about the reinforcements? No, he will just run away... We should follow the plan."
"Then...please paint it purple, like lavender."
"receive……"
…
"It has changed!" The secretary in the room shouted in surprise. Everyone saw that the crystal ball flashed bright purple!
"Good news! Bad news?" Ferdinando asked anxiously.
"It hasn't been sent yet..." The mage deliberately put on a poker face, "But what is certain is that it is 100% good news!"
"Aha!" Ferdinando slapped the table vigorously, "That's good news..."
"The British began to attack!" At this time. The messenger shouted outside the door. Almost everyone among the adjutants present said "shen yin" in their hearts, "It's finally begun!", so they all stood up and left. At this time, Spain was at its most powerful period in history, and few officers on the water were afraid of war.

The first attack by the British and French was like a giant pincer. I want to crush the walnut of the Southern Fleet in one fell swoop. The two sides staggered their attacks and soon mixed up the two sides' lines. Taking advantage of numbers and warships, the British and French fleets compressed the southern fleet into an area of less than two nautical miles.
"Where are they?! Where are they!" Ferdinando yelled crazily, suddenly seeming to understand something. "I can use... no, my ship can go to..." He pointed to the direction with the fewest British and French ships, "In which direction can I break out? Call the captain for me."
The crystal ball in the mage's hand flashed, "Asshole, hurry them up! That guy is going to run away!"
…
In distant Port-au-Prince, a ceremonial queue formed on the steps of the Governor's Palace.
Both sides of the ceremony. On one side were the coalition forces of the Contractors, with Ye Xiu leading Cheng Yuyue and Elizabeth standing at the front; on the other side were the officials of the Governor-General of the entire French colony. The ceremony had reached its final stage, and the French governor surrendered in full regalia, holding a sword in both hands.
But Ye Zuo, who was supposed to take the sword, kept looking at the sunset, pretending to be arrogant that he didn't see it.
Surrender ceremony, appropriate humiliation exists...but as time goes by, this humiliation begins to transform into naked humiliation! Neither French. Both the contractors and the contractors felt that the hostility between the two sides was rising sharply. The warships in the harbor were reloading their artillery. It seemed that all they were waiting for was an order.
But at this moment, Ye Zuo reached out and grabbed the French Governor's sword. Just leave without saying anything...
The ears of all the contractors rang at the same time, the news that France had withdrawn from this naval battle!
Ye Zuo left, and the "Tearer Team" and all the contractors turned and left. Although the NPCs were dissatisfied, they also left the Governor's Mansion together.
The French Governor stood on the steps and couldn't help but spread his hands. that's all? There was no looting, no compensation...even from beginning to end, not even a surrender document was signed? ! What kind of surrender is this for TD? ! His mind suddenly turned to how to conceal the news from the country. As for the next sea battle... France has been severely damaged. The next step should be to preserve its strength. Participating in the sea battle is no longer in his mind.
"How is it?" Yu Xin asked Elizabeth directly.
"No points deducted."
"Yeah!" Several people clenched their fists together! This means that big business has already taken shape.
"There are many more...bonus points, restrictions, blah blah blah..." As the betrayal camp, Elizabeth obviously has the most information. She said, rubbing her fingers together.
"What do you want?" Yu Xin asked on behalf of everyone. If this kind of business does not square all participants, it will not be able to obtain maximum benefits.
Elizabeth smiled, tapped Ye Zou with her finger, and then tapped Cheng Yuyue, "I want them to do a striptease together!"
…
"Good news! Good news!" the mage shouted. The crystal ball shone with purple light like an explosion, reflecting a deep purple in the captain's cabin.
"Good news! Now listen to me..." Ferdinando yelled, but before he could finish speaking, a cheering sound came from outside, directly interrupting what she was about to say. "What happened?"
"France! France!" An officer on duty ran in excitedly, "France is withdrawing its troops!"
"Watt?!" Ferdinando couldn't believe the news he heard, but he couldn't help but turn his eyes to the flashing crystal ball. Is it really good news? !
During the naval battle, Ferdinando huddled in the cabin and commanded, so he was very unfluent.
If he had stood on the deck at this time, he would have been able to see the French fleet retreating in a large area, tearing off two-fifths of the encirclement! The so-called encirclement no longer exists!
At this time, the fleet cheered even louder. In these few minutes, it seemed that God was standing with Ferdinando. In the north direction, under the afterglow of the setting sun, a large number of Spanish and Dutch warships were revealed. The large force of the West-Dutch Allied Forces had arrived!
"Seize the opportunity!" Ferdinando gestured excitedly in front of the chart, "God bless! There is a big gap here, we will retreat to Belize immediately..."
The mage said casually, "We have so many warships, which are enough to defeat the British. There is no big problem in retreating."
"Yes... I can destroy the British fleet..." Ferdinando became greedy again.
*******
In the Dutch colony, Grand Bahama Harbor is where the Royal Governor's Palace is located.
The thick burning smoke covered the sky and blocked out the sun. Dozens of huge Chinese sailing ships were moored side by side in the port.
Another port that was equally important as Port-au-Prince was occupied, but Ming's fleet seemed unscathed.
On the flagship of the Ming Dynasty fleet, Lin Nanxuan and the third prince stood side by side on the bow, looking at the sunset.
"Is the time agreed with the British coming soon?" The third prince said to Lin Nanxuan in a flattering manner. In the current Ming Dynasty fleet, the third prince is a highly regarded figure. As long as he is self-aware, he will not jump out to challenge Lin Nanxuan.
"It's not the right time yet, just wait..." Lin Nanxuan, who was wearing a big cloak, didn't look sick at all at this moment. He shook the pocket watch in his hand and looked at the ticking hands...
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were plundering the harbor and transferring all the materials that could be moved to the fleet to take away.
The Royal Governor of the Netherlands stood under the gallows with a noose around his neck, and the wrench for execution was right in front of Lin Nanxuan. He put his hand on the wrench and watched the second hand of his pocket watch tick forward.
