Chapter 31 Pirates!

Today, more than two months later, Mexico City is running out of food, and the Governor is overjoyed!

Therefore, they wanted to surrender the city on the grounds that the food in the city was cut off and if they continued to "resist", all the residents in the city might starve to death!

When the Rohan soldiers outside the city heard about it, they arranged a convoy and pulled dozens of carts of food into the city!

The teacher of true benevolence and righteousness!

For a time, the residents of the city stood in the streets and applauded. The cries in the Governor's Palace were loud!

In short, you have to eat and drink. But you can’t leave! You can’t surrender!

After the locals learned that Mexico City was still resisting resolutely under the "control" of the governor, the Spanish royal family decided to reward him.

When the envoy of the commendation secretly arrived outside Mexico City, a year had passed since the war broke out.

They were discovered by patrolling soldiers, and when they were about to beg for mercy in despair, they were unexpectedly let go!

Rohan soldiers escorted him all the way into the city and delivered him to the governor's palace in a generous manner.

Along the way, the soldiers and civilians were in harmony and greeted each other with smiling faces. The residents in the city were not afraid of these soldiers at all, and there were even children running through them playfully.

The soldiers of Rohan have even allowed the residents of the city to write letters, and they will be responsible for sending the letters back to mainland Spain in Europe.

This magical "war plot" suddenly became normal after entering the Governor's Mansion.

The Governor is no longer as fat as he was a year ago. He is white and thin, sitting in the shadows. When he saw the messenger, his eyes were shining.

Howling, he rushed forward, hugged the messenger and started crying.

"Let me go back and replace the governor!"

He finally understood that Rohan had no intention of capturing Mexico City, and he didn't even care who the governor was.

They only need Mexico City to continue to "resist" and the Governor to still "hold on."

For the rest, they don't care even if the governor is a cripple, an idiot, or even a dog.

The messenger finally left with full of doubts, taking away Rohan's "policy" before leaving.

The governor can be changed, but there must be one. The Spanish residents in the city can also leave, but their number cannot be reduced.

Under such a strange tacit understanding, Mexico City was gradually "forgotten".

After this war, many European countries, including Britain and France, began to send permanent diplomatic envoys to Rohan.

This marks that Rohan has officially become a "great power" recognized by Spain.

And Lynn scoffed at this "admission."

The Kingdom of Rohan began to make great strides again under his will.

Roads throughout the territory began to be built, and countless bridges of various sizes began to be constructed. The land increased several times and needed people to cultivate.

Fortunately, there are enough laborers for construction, whether from Fuso in the Pacific or Africa on the Atlantic.

Lord Becket once again went to Florida to ask for an audience.

But at this time, Lin En had already set off with Yin Lisabai and began to inspect the territory.

They started in North America, passed through Central America, and finally came to South America.

He also personally measured a narrow terrain in Panama and decided where to dig a canal.

As long as this canal can be opened, it will definitely become the busiest canal in the world, and the entire Caribbean Sea will be even busier.

But when they returned to Florida,

A dirty and decadent man appeared in front of him.

"Oh! Brigadier Norrington? What has the world done to you?"

"Everything!" shuddered James Norrington.

Standing in front of Linn was none other than Brigadier General James Norrington of Port Royal, whom he had not seen for more than a year.

It's just that at this time, Norrington completely lost the pride and high-spiritedness he had at that time.

The brigadier general's uniform was in tatters, and his originally neat platinum-blonde hair had become dark and dirty, exuding an unpleasant smell.

Linn strode forward and hugged him nonchalantly, like hugging a friend he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Your Majesty!" Norrington backed away in panic, "My body is too dirty!"

"James! We are friends!" Linn interrupted him in a deep voice.

Lin En, as a king, could still treat a person who was in extreme poverty like this. Norrington really felt what sincerity means from him!

This kind of tenderness makes it almost difficult for him, who has suffered so much in the past year, to find himself alone!

He forced his trembling chest to stop, took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, I brought you a gift!"

Lin En raised her hand to stop what he said next,

"James, no matter what you bring me, I will treat it as a gift from a friend. But now, I hope you will also accept help from friends."

"Go take a bath, have a good meal, and then have a good sleep."

"I promise you, the world's malice towards you is over!"



The next day, Norrington's mental outlook changed drastically when he reappeared in front of Linn, and he seemed to have returned to the upright and serious brigadier general.

But there is a big difference. Although the face looks the same as before, the expression and temperament are like an iron ingot that has been hammered through countless times to remove impurities and become extremely hard steel!

This is a more drastic change than in the original work.

Next, Norrington introduced to Linn what happened in the past year or so.

The development at the beginning was pretty much what Lin En expected.

He did, at Miss Swan's plea, free the pirate Will.

Lord Cutler Beckett came from England with the king's order and a large number of soldiers to arrest Will, he and Miss Swan.

Governor Swann was also held accountable.

There was nothing he could do in the matter, as the arrest warrant was signed by King George II.

And Beckett's next operation, in hindsight, fully demonstrated this man's viciousness and danger.

He understood everyone's relationships and made full use of them.

First, Will was secretly released on the condition that Captain Jack's compass be exchanged for Miss Swan's pardon and a privateering license for himself.

With this certificate, Will is no longer a pirate, but a legal pirate recognized by the British government, which means he has successfully laundered his identity.

Will set off without hesitation.

Next, Beckett releases Miss Swan again, on the same condition that Jack's compass is exchanged for everyone's freedom, including her father.

Miss Swan also set off.

Norrington himself was imprisoned for more than half a year. Then one day, one of his soldiers suddenly rescued him and took him to Tatuga.

He suddenly lost something and had no direction at all.

He has nothing left, knows nothing, and is extremely destitute.

Until one day, when he boarded a pirate ship as a sailor, he discovered that his fiancée was having an affair with a pirate.

He didn't know if this was Beckett's arrangement. If it was, he really couldn't understand why he was playing with his soul like this?

"She betrayed me, for love with a pirate! Or two?"

"But what's worse is that I witnessed her degeneration into a pirate!"
