On the third day after Linn returned to Florence, he got a piece of news.
Norrington was dismissed from his post and imprisoned for setting off pirates.
He has always hoped to hang all the pirates. If there is a pirate who will be released, there is probably only one person, Will Turner.
Linn shook his head slightly, Miss Swan must have played an "indispensable role" in this.
But in fact, releasing a pirate is not a big deal for a brigadier general. It is undoubtedly a bit picky to convict based on this incident.
So what matters is not whether Norrington is guilty or not, what matters is the person who announced his guilt!
Lord Cutler Beckett, spokesman for King George II of England and director of the British East India Company.
Lynn knew this man and had even interacted with him. His impression of him was that of a standard British aristocrat, a persistent and ruthless businessman who was good at using the law and ambitious.
The King of England sent this man here not simply because Norrington released a pirate. It was because he saw the decline of New Spain by himself and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity.
Linn, who knew the plot, also knew another hidden purpose of Beckett - Jack's compass.
He hopes to find the heart of Davy Jones through the compass, and then control the most terrifying pirate ship in the sea, the "Flying Dutchman".
Lynn must take action as soon as possible to completely capture the Kingdom of New Spain before the British intervene!
The entire Rohan began to move at high speed after Lin En returned, with huge supplies being allocated, soldiers being mobilized and deployed on a large scale, and warships returning to port for repairs.
Military mobilization of this scale cannot be concealed. In particular, the large-scale mobilization of warships is even more eye-catching.
The entire Caribbean was suddenly in turmoil, and the cloud of large-scale war enveloped the entire Central America.
The special envoy of the governor of New Spain rushed to Florida and was told that the move was a routine maintenance and there was no need to be nervous.
The new commander of the British Navy, Lord Becket, rushed to see him but was told that Rohan did this in response to the increasingly rampant pirate power.
A month later, Rohan's fleet left port.
Without any notice or note, Rohan suddenly launched a fierce attack on the Kingdom of New Spain.
And from the beginning, it was an all-round, land and sea attack.
Seven huge war fleets, three on the left and four on the right, attacked from the Pacific and Caribbean Sea at the same time.
The army with a total number of 200,000 was divided into two groups, crossing the actual line of control from the North American continent and attacking all the way to Mexico in the south.
The other route crosses from the island of Cuba to the strait and lands in the Yucatan Peninsula.
One south and one north began to attack at the same time.
This is not harassment or attack at all. It is occupation and complete annihilation of the country!
The governor of the Kingdom of New Spain was so upset that he wanted to commit suicide. He was not upset about Rohan's attack, which had been expected. But he was upset that his report had been sent back for a year, and the country did not agree to it for various reasons.
If you agree to go back by yourself, do you still need to be as worried as you are now?
You can't beat him for sure!
The dozens of old-fashioned capital ships in New Spain, compared with the more than 140 new capital ships and 300 fourth-level battleships in Rohan, are like soft eggs that will break at a touch.
The army of New Spain is even worse than the navy. Any Spaniard is proud to join the navy, and the army is discriminated against by the navy at home.
If there is no funding, no position, no position, how can we expect this group of people to have any fighting capacity?
Sure enough, the war was proceeding according to Rohan's rhythm from the beginning.
Once the straits in both directions of the island of Cuba were blocked, the entire Gulf of Mexico became an inland sea, making it impossible to escape. Reports of attacks from various places drifted towards the Governor's Palace like snowflakes.
Some local officials didn't even make a report and just packed up and fled back.
The governor sometimes wished that Rohan could march faster so that he could block all the officials who had surrendered without a fight.
Within ten days after the war began, the governor of New Spain had all his warships destroyed. On the twentieth day after the war began, he could already hear the sound of cannon coming from the north of Mexico City.
Those who should flee and those who should run fled in the city, leaving less than a thousand residents, among whom there were still two hundred who were his guards.
Thirty days after the war began, Mexico City was already besieged.
The governor of New Spain breathed a sigh of relief and secretly thought in his heart that as long as you fire the cannon, I will surrender immediately.
But Rohan didn't even fire a gun, let alone a cannon. After leaving enough soldiers to block the entrance and exit, a large number of soldiers actually went south without looking back!
The Governor is immediately anxious!
What do you mean? Just fight me. As long as you fight me, I will surrender!
Are you looking down on people?
The soldiers of Rohan did not guess the Governor's thoughts. They just followed His Majesty the King's order and only surrounded but did not attack. They marched south in a large scale.
After besieging Mexico City, the entire king of New Spain was completely scattered. Rohan's army marched southward and encountered minimal resistance.
With the cover and cooperation of the navy, the army quickly occupied a large area of territory in a sweeping manner. Especially those narrow strips of land, which served as bridges connecting the northern and southern continents, were torn into long strips by geological movements.
The narrowest point is only a few dozen kilometers, and even the army is not needed. The naval warships on both sides can complete the occupation.
The large-scale army quickly passed through these narrow areas and entered the southernmost coast of the Caribbean Sea and the northernmost part of South America.
Rohan's army finally stopped!
Only a hundred days have passed since the war started.
Rohan has completed its attack on the Kingdom of New Spain.
Occupied all the territory of the Kingdom of New Spain except Mexico.
In this way, the territory of Rohan stretches from the south of North America to the north of South America, including the entire Central America including Mexico.
This is the area on land. On the sea, the entire Gulf of Mexico has become the inland sea of Rohan, and the vast and rich Caribbean Sea has only a few small islands occupied by Britain and France.
too fast!
This speed is really too fast.
It takes two months to send a letter back to England from Port Royal.
It only took Rohan more than three months from launching the attack to completing the occupation.
Even if someone wants to take advantage of the fire, such a short time may not be enough to complete the preparation of their fleet.
Now the overall situation has been decided, and there is no possibility of any reversal. In the Caribbean, it is a foregone conclusion that the Rohan family will dominate.
But what seems to be everyone forgetting?
Oh, right.
Mexico City is still here!
The Spanish governor in the city is half crazy,
You should fight! If you don’t fight me, how can I surrender decently?
In order to seduce the soldiers of Rohan to attack, he even ordered people to throw out guns and make the soldiers drunk on purpose. However, no matter how the governor tried to seduce, the Rohan people on the opposite side were as if they were invisible. They were facing a powerful enemy every day and were on guard.
