Lin En saw Jack rolling out of the captain's cabin, knowing that he must have been lying at the door just now to eavesdrop on what was going on outside, and said helplessly:
"Captain Jack, you are captured!"
"Come here, take him to the Black Pearl and imprison him!"
Two soldiers immediately stepped forward and tied up Jack. Jack did not resist. When he heard Linn say that he would be taken to the "Black Pearl" for detention, the corner of his mouth curled up.
"Yes, Your Majesty, you have captured Captain Jack Sparrow!"
After saying that, he winked at Lin En.
Linn waved his hand angrily, and the soldier immediately took Jack into the boat and rowed towards the "Black Pearl".
At this time, Rohan's fleet was already cleaning the battlefield, taking over pirate ships, salvaging people who fell into the water, and imprisoning pirates. Norrington led part of the fleet to surround Shipwreck Bay.
The small number of pirates hiding inside had just been defeated and were in shock. They were unable to resist together. Facing Rohan's fleet, they dispersed after just a few rounds of shelling.
After Lin En personally inspected the place, he directly decided to transform it into a naval garrison.
The extremely special terrain of Shipwreck Bay not only provides shelter from storms, but is also easy to defend and difficult to attack. With a little modification, it can become an "unfallable" sea fortress.
Moreover, it is located in the southern part of the Caribbean Sea, close to the South American continent. The fleet stationed here can greatly strengthen Rohan's rule over the new South American territories and ensure that the kingdom controls the entire Caribbean Sea.
Linn repaired here for a few days, and after confirming the transformation plan, he led the repaired fleet and set off back to Florida.
Just a little "incident" happened on the way. When the fleet was docking at the port for supplies, Jack Sparrow, who was imprisoned on the "Black Pearl", quietly escaped from prison under the cover of night.
And together with Barbossa and others, they hijacked the "Black Pearl" and fled!
It is said that the navy in charge of guarding the navy at that time received an emergency transfer order strangely and hurriedly left without even having time to wait for the new navy to take over. This gave the pirates a chance to escape...
Later, there was news that they planned to escape to the free port of Tatuga. I don't know whether it was true or not. Anyway, the Kingdom of Rohan just issued a reward and ignored it, pretending that nothing happened.
After returning to Florida, Norrington personally tried the captured pirates and hanged them all without question!
Including Captain Will of the "Dutchman" and his father.
The crowd of onlookers did not see the legendary pirate emperor.
It is said that she is a ferocious and strange woman, but no one has ever seen her. Legend has it that all the pirates who have seen her are dead! So all kinds of terrifying legends have become the talk of the residents before and after tea.
The rows of gallows in the square were busy for three consecutive days. The black smoke from the concentrated burning lasted for half a month before it dissipated.
At this point, all powerful pirates on the sea have been wiped out, and there is peace on the sea. Especially in the Caribbean. This former pirate paradise has become a forbidden land for pirates.
The free port of Tatuga, which prospered because of pirates, has also fallen silent. France has lost an important source of tax revenue, but they have no courage to cause trouble in Rohan now. The French themselves are already in huge trouble!
In this year, Archduke Charles VI of Austria passed away without any male heirs. According to the "State Decree" issued before his death, his eldest daughter Maria Theresa had the right to inherit various territories belonging to the Austrian monarchy. Maria
On the day she ascended the throne, Leah Theresa said that although she was only a woman, she had the heart of a king.
This incident itself is quite normal and should not have caused a stir. But the problem is that Charles VI also had a more prominent identity-the Holy Roman Emperor!
The Holy Roman Empire ruled most of Europe during its heyday. Although it has now declined and Europe has been divided into numerous principalities and principalities, the empire is still regarded as orthodox. The emperor is still the nominal ruler.
Once the emperor died, according to tradition, the new emperor should be elected by the seven electors. However, before Charles VI's death, he selfishly issued a will for his daughter to succeed him. This stirred up a hornet's nest. The whole of Europe was thrown into chaos.
Prussia, France, Spain, the Electorate of Bavaria, the Electorate of Saxony, the Kingdom of Sardinia, the Kingdom of Sicily, etc. refused to recognize Maria Theresa's inheritance rights, while the Grand Duchy of Austria, the United Kingdom, the Dutch Republic, and the Russian Empire removed from their respective
Based on their vested interests, they fully supported Maria Theresa's inheritance. As a result, a succession war spread across Europe.
Britain and France, the centuries-old enemies, even took action. The two sides started fighting in various places, including overseas colonies.
In this situation, both sides hope to win over the Kingdom of Rohan across the Atlantic.
Especially the UK.
The two sides have always had a good cooperative relationship since the founding of Rohan. Some time ago, Britain even sold thirteen states in North America to Rohan.
Now Britain no longer has any land in the North American continent, but France still occupies a large area of land in the central part of the continent.
It can be said that if Lynn wants to occupy the entire North American continent, France is his last obstacle!
France also understands this. But the French feel that they have already expressed a tacit attitude towards the decline of the free port of Tatuga, so they arrogantly believe that Rohan should learn to be grateful.
Linn immediately handed over the "Dutchman" to the British in its entirety. This kind gesture made the British happy because it represented the attitude of Rohan.
George II immediately sent an envoy to Rohan, hoping to draw Rohan into the British alliance.
Lynn unexpectedly refused to join. However, he agreed to allow the British to launch an attack on France on the North American continent and keep them all here.
But the condition is that the British need to hand over Port Royal to Rohan.
"The people of Rohan are greedy for land deep in their bones!" This rumor widely circulated in Europe has been verified again.
George II did not want to agree. Port Royal was already the last piece of British land in the Caribbean. If it was lost, Britain would never have a foothold in this area.
However, Archduke Maria of Austria was defeated in the first confrontation with Prussia, and the situation suddenly became crisis.
After the news of the defeat came, Maria could only hope for help from abroad. She asked for help from many powerful countries that had signed the "State Rescript" and swore to support her.
Although George II needed Austria to involve France, he was afraid that she could not stop Prussia's tens of thousands of troops. He had to make a decision as soon as possible, but he was still reluctant to give up Port Royal.
At this time, Linn made an agreement. He promised the British that Rohan could send troops across the Atlantic to attack France after wiping out the French forces on the North American continent.
