Chapter 66: Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains

In the Battle of Port Royal, Britain dispatched fifty-one warships, but twenty-nine were sunk, seven escaped, and the remaining fifteen surrendered with white flags.

Lord Beckett's idea was good. If half of the ships were injured and killed, the remaining people would be rushed to the shore. Then with thousands of British soldiers, they could definitely defeat the enemy in street fighting.

But war cannot be measured by data at all.

After eighteen warships were sunk in a row, the remaining British soldiers immediately rebelled!

The warships that were constantly being sunk destroyed the soldiers' psychological defenses. Watching the warships on the left and right suddenly turned into a pile of ruins, and countless soldiers turned into dust in the sea before they even had time to scream. This kind of psychological pressure is really overwhelming.

It makes people collapse.

Who knows if you keep fighting and you will suddenly spiral into the sky?

Lord Becket had calculated the power of Port Royal's artillery, but he had failed to calculate the desperate confidence of his soldiers.

He was the governor of the Caribbean appointed by the king, and had just been awarded the title of Lord. In Beckett's heart, even if he died for the great cause of His Majesty the King, it was worth it.

But he is not afraid of death, but it does not mean that those soldiers are not afraid of death!

Everyone just came here to make a living for the eighteen pounds a year military pay, but now they are required to attack the enemy with a death consciousness.

Sorry, this is really impossible!

So the soldiers on about a dozen warships rebelled directly, tied up the captains, and then raised white flags to surrender.

A dozen traitors suddenly appeared in the originally forward-moving fleet, and the remaining ships immediately lost the courage to continue the attack. Other ships that were unwilling to join in the attack immediately became confused.

Some wanted to advance and rushed directly to the dock, while others were preparing to retreat and escape.

There was chaos on the sea. In the end, those martyrs who dared to rush forward were all turned into pieces, while only a few of those who escaped escaped.

Lord Carlert Beckett jumped into the sea and committed suicide. In one battle, the entire British West Sea Fleet was wiped out. Even if he did not commit suicide, the King of England would not spare him. It would be better to commit suicide more simply.

Li Qingyuan instantly owned eighteen battleships. It is no exaggeration to say that even with these battleships, he could control the entire Caribbean!

But compared to the rapid improvement of his own strength, what is more troublesome is how to deal with those ten thousand British soldiers.

Even counting the pirates who surrendered, his men numbered less than 2,000, and now there were suddenly 7,000 to 8,000 British prisoners, which really made people a little confused as to how to handle them.

There is not much space for so many people even if they are imprisoned. As for directly recruiting them?

God knows whether these soldiers will suddenly bring order to the chaos under the instigation of some thoughtful people?

So now he finally understands Bai Qi's mentality back then!

If he hadn't considered that these big soldiers might be useful to him in controlling the entire Caribbean area, he would have really wanted to learn from Bai Qi and let them dig their own holes to bury him.

After final consideration, he selected a thousand soldiers with the best attitude and incorporated them into his own escort, bringing the number of guards at Port Royal to three thousand.

As for the remaining 6,000-odd prisoners?

Everything was left behind to build infrastructure.

Since we want to build Port Royal into the economic center of the entire New World route, the original small amount of land is definitely not enough. Anyway, there are a large number of virgin mountains and forests behind Port Royal, so it would be good for these guys to open up wasteland.

He left all these little things to Governor Swan to take charge of. Ever since he watched the entire Caribbean war on the top of the mountain, Governor Swan's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees, from being a transparent person to being a transparent person.

Everything is rushed forward.

Li Qingyuan was well aware of the change in the old guy's attitude. Although he used to write novels for men, he also guest-wrote several novels for women when he really had no money.

It was simply that seeing how powerful Li Qingyuan was, Governor Swan had some strange calculations in his mind.

Now he only has Elizabeth Swann as his legal wife. Even if Miss Swan herself does not agree, in the eyes of others, Elizabeth Swann is the legitimate mistress of Port Royal.

With the strength that Li Qingyuan has shown now, Governor Swan feels that it may be difficult to fight back to the British mainland, but it will not be any problem to cede territory and become a king in the Caribbean.

If Elizabeth gives birth to a son and a half daughter from now on, wouldn't the thousands of miles of land he conquered become the property of his Wetherby family?

Whether to be a dog for the King of England or to be the King's grandfather, any fool can figure it out!

Others could not see Governor Swan's little calculation, but for Li Qingyuan, who was used to watching palace fighting dramas, it was too simple.

It's just that compared to Governor Swan's political wisdom, Elizabeth Swann's political acumen is almost zero. She is still in a state of non-violence and non-cooperation these days. If it were placed in a harem drama, based on her performance, she would never survive the second episode.

Episode two.

But it doesn’t matter, he doesn’t need the other person’s heart anyway, someone is enough!

As for saying that getting the heart can unlock more postures?

Total nonsense!

The rope, pulley and hook are locked together. What position do you want?

Mader went off topic!

After defeating the fleet led by Beckett, the system determined that his mission was completed and directly awarded five free attribute points and a special passive skill - Water Mastery.

This skill is just like its name. Li Qingyuan tested the effect of this skill in the sea.

At first, he thought that this skill only allowed him to swim faster, but after entering the water, he discovered that with this skill, he could pretend to be a mermaid and lurk underwater for hours without taking a breath.

Moreover, he was able to ignore the pressure of the water in the sea and only felt a little bit stuffy after diving to a depth of 300 meters.

In the world of Pirates of the Caribbean, having this skill can be said to be an extra life-saving trump card.

Even though he has defeated the British fleet and his illustrious name is now spread throughout the Caribbean, in fact the real battle and test has just arrived.

He had already considered it when he first occupied Port Royal. For him now, the British fleet was not a problem.

After all, he possesses the skills of a genius in explosives and has more than 300 years of arms experience leading the world. If he uses it to deal with an army that still uses solid artillery shells, it will be a crushing defeat.

In the world of Pirates of the Caribbean, the most dangerous things are the messy black magic and the various undead sea monsters that emerge one after another.
