Chapter 51 Battleships

"Jack, if I want to recruit people, where do you think it's better to go?" After thinking for a moment, Li Qingyuan asked Jack Sparrow.

Both system tasks this time are very troublesome. Whether it is becoming the pirate emperor or killing the British Royal Fleet, it is not something that one person can handle!

After all, his current physical fitness is only slightly stronger than that of ordinary people. Let alone a 50-50 split, even the playful Captain Jack in front of him may not be able to win for sure.

You must know that as the protagonist of the Pirates of the Caribbean series, Jack Sparrow not only possesses incredible self-confidence and master-level negotiation skills, he is also very skilled.

At least, in terms of sword fighting and close combat, Li Qingyuan felt that he would be beaten to a pulp by the opponent!

During this period, he mainly practiced firearms design skills. With his extraordinary physique and agility, he was able to achieve a fixed target within 50 meters with perfect accuracy. This is why he was confident that he could level a boat by himself!

With twice the physique and agility of ordinary people, plus firepower that is hundreds of years ahead of the times, if you still can't defeat one against a hundred, then just go to bed and go back to time travel.

"Recruiting? What are you going to do, buddy?" Jack Sparrow felt that he was not up to par with the brain circuit of the guy in front of him. Isn't the question now about how to escape from this desert island?

"I think the pirate life you just mentioned is quite interesting, and I'm going to recruit people to form a pirate group!" Li Qingyuan said, touching his chin.

Regardless of whether you want to kill the British Royal Fleet or become a pirate emperor, the first condition is that you must become a pirate.

Through the chat with Jack Sparrow just now, he has learned that the new British King George II has just succeeded to the throne. According to the world line, it should be 1728 AD.

It's just that the world line of this world seems very strange. Logically speaking, China should be in the middle of the so-called "Kangxi and Qianlong Dynasties", but according to Jack, the far east is said to be ruled by the Ming Dynasty.

But that kind of news is not important, because his current location is the Caribbean Sea, which is half a world away from the Central Plains. At the current sailing speed, it will take half a year at the fastest to return to China.

Including the time spent going back and forth, if he is stubborn enough to go back and recruit a group of Chinese as his subordinates, being able to complete this matter in one year is considered a blessing from the Three Pure Ones!

"Pirate group? Dude, do you have a ship?" Jack suddenly became energetic and asked curiously.

Due to the large-scale development of the Americas these days, countless European settlers and desperadoes have fled to the New World. Coupled with the trafficked black slaves and the Indians and Mayans who have not yet died, it can be said that everywhere along the entire Atlantic coast

You can recruit people.

As long as you have a ship and a minimum salary that you can pay, you can recruit a group of desperate guys anytime and anywhere.

A ship that can cross the Atlantic Ocean is a valuable treasure even for the kings of European countries.

The simplest reason is that because Britain now has nearly 200 warships, it is temporarily ahead of other European countries. However, Spain, the original maritime hegemon, was defeated by half of its fleet due to two wars, leaving only the remaining warships in the country.

One hundred and forty ships, becoming the second largest ship in Europe.

Throughout "Pirates of the Caribbean", the reason why Jack Sparrow has such a deep obsession with the Black Pearl is not only because the ship carries his dreams and life, but also because the ship is so real.

It's too expensive!

The Black Pearl is a three-masted schooner. According to the classification of ships, it is not even a battleship. However, despite this, its cost is as high as 20,000 pounds.

One more thing!

Even the famous Captain Jack Sparrow's head was only worth 10,000 pounds at his peak.

"I think I should have a boat." After trying to recall the plot in his mind, Li Qingyuan nodded and said.

"Um, buddy, you don't mean the sampan, do you?" Jack Sparrow looked around and found no sign of any ship, so he asked teasingly.

"I think it should be a second-level battleship!" Li Qingyuan stretched out his hands and turned them around quickly, and said uncertainly.

According to the records in the movie, the Dreadnaught in Port Royal was definitely a battleship, but whether it was a third-class battleship or a second-class battleship, because he was not a professional sailing enthusiast, he couldn't tell at all.

"Second-class battleship? Are you kidding?" Miss Swan was not very interested in the so-called ships, so she did not react. However, Jack Sparrow jumped up from the ground as if he had been electrocuted.

By the way, how did he manage to jump up while sitting?

"What, is there a problem?" Looking at Jack Sparrow's panicked expression, Li Qingyuan asked with a smile.

"Second-class battleship, man, do you know what you are talking about?" Jack Sparrow regained his composure a little and said every word.

There are indeed many pirates around the world, but whether it is Jack Sparrow or the so-called nine pirate kings, their ships are basically converted merchant ships.

Because battleships are simply impossible to buy.

All battleships are in the hands of the royal families of various countries. Regardless of the quality of the ships or the quantity of artillery, battleships and renovated merchant ships are not products of the same level.

In one-on-one situations, captains and sailors may still rely on experience, morale, and other miscellaneous bonuses to pose a threat to battleships. However, once more than three battleships form a formation, even if they face ten pirate ships, then

It can also be won easily.

This is also the reason why in the third part of "Pirates of the Caribbean", after seeing dozens of battleships appearing in the fog, even the nine pirate kings directly lost their courage to fight.

There is no need to fight at all. If one round of artillery fire comes down, everyone here will have no choice but to sink to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish!

"I said yes, of course it is!" Li Qingyuan thought for a moment while dragging his chin, and felt that his plan was still very feasible.

As long as the beacon is lit according to the original plot, Governor Swan of Port Royal and Commodore Norrington, who are looking for Miss Swan nearby, will arrive soon.

And as long as he gets on the ship, it shouldn't be a big problem for him to clean up those people on the ship.

Although there are more than 200 British soldiers on board the Fearless, as long as he kills Norrington with thunderous means first, and then kills 20 or 30 others to establish his authority, the remaining people will not follow him all the way.

Carrying it to death.

But then, he raised his head and looked at Elizabeth Swann, who was licking her fingers.
