My British Empire

  Chapter 548 Target: Newfoundland

   At the moment when the Governor took people to regain confidence for the entire colony, a hunt was going on in the Caribbean Sea.

  As the hunted party, the Spanish galleon ran forward like a fat man, heavy and difficult, even if the sails were fully agitated.

   However, it was still unavoidable to be overtaken by a Galen ship that was slightly larger than itself. After approaching at an equal distance, the artillery began to fire salvos, aiming at the sailors on the deck.

  The matchlock guns, bows and arrows were all set up together, aiming at the brave sailors on the deck.

  The Galen boat was chasing after it. When the distance between the two boats was less than one person, a dozen iron chain hooks with sharp iron claws grabbed the side of the boat viciously.

   "Clatter—" The two ships that were originally parallel were suddenly linked together, one was fast and the other was slow, and then suddenly shook, and the sailors on the boat grabbed things tightly to stabilize their bodies.

   "Bah!" Warrior William touched the splashed spray on his face with his thick right hand, spat hard, then looked excitedly at the cargo ship that fell into his arms, and grinned happily.

   "I knew, sooner or later you will be prey in my hands, no matter how long you run! Hahahaha—"

"Guys, hurry up, the prey is already in hand!" Wielding a machete in his hand, he took off his slightly cumbersome Chinese clothes, and then jumped onto the captured cargo ship like a robber, catching a sailor, He slashed fiercely.

   Then, with lightning speed, he and his companions who jumped off the ship started to fight.

   "Boom dong dong—" "Boom dong dong—" There were bursts of jumping sounds on the cargo ship being chased, and then there were shouts of killing.

  The sharp knife pierced the flesh, the musket fired, and the close combat was extremely fierce. The tenacity of the opponent was beyond William's surprise.

  He frowned. The other party's tenacious resistance was beyond his expectation.

  Looking at the opposing sailors gathered together, supporting them back to back, among them, a Spanish gentleman commanded without fear, with a calm expression on his face.

  Seeing this, William led his companions and strode forward toward the gathered sailors, then exerted all his strength and slashed with his big knife with all his might.

   Soon, under the fierce offensive, it didn't take long before the morale boosted by the opponent was suppressed, the fighting thoughts dissipated, and the sound of fighting stopped.

   Working hard for the employer is not worth it in the eyes of the sailors.

   "Are you the captain?" William looked at the blood-stained middle-aged man in front of him, then at his calloused hands, with a different smile on his face, and asked in Spanish.

   "Yes, sir!" The captured captain was very polite, or gentle, he was still polite to the pirate who was hunting him. This kind of self-cultivation from the heart convinced William and the others.

   "It can be seen that you are very good at leading people. If it is someone else, I am afraid you will turn defeat into victory!"

  At this moment, William returned to his old aristocratic demeanor, and there was a hint of appreciation in his blue eyes.

   "Let me introduce myself, William Alger from Southampton, England. Nice to meet you, dear sir!"

  The sailors on both sides consciously showed a gesture of respect, watching quietly, without making the slightest sound.

  The captive captain's eyes were full of surprise. He looked at the burly man covered in blood in disbelief, and suddenly turned into a nobleman, a little dazed.

   "Ugh, hello, Colin Isidor Bean, hired captain of the Spanish Benedict family!"

   "I didn't expect that an ordinary captain would have such water. I always thought it was the nobleman who was in command? It was so unexpected!"

  William's burly body moved, and then he said in an exaggerated tone, which made the captured captain feel better and his expression eased.

   "Well, sir, follow me! Your original employer doesn't deserve your allegiance!"

  William looked admiringly, and asked his men to untie the indifferent captain, and then asked with a smile on his face.

   "Do I have any other options?" The captain named Colin could only show a wry smile, looked at the wolf-like sailors around him, and shook his head.

   "Very good, I believe, this is your most correct choice!" William patted his arm happily, such a talent was exactly what he needed.

   "However, please transfer my family!" Captain Colin said softly, watching William.

   "Sure, it's a must, but do you speak English? I hate Spanish!"

   "Of course, in order to cope with more and more English businessmen, I can speak some English!" Immediately, Colin explained in English bluntly.

   "Very well, I appreciate you very much!" William looked at his indifferent eyes, and the joy on his face became more and more intense.

   Following the captain's surrender, other sailors followed suit, and the cargo ship with nearly sixty people, including the crew and the boat, was embraced by William.

   "Sir, on the Asuka, all you have are tobacco and sugar, and there is no gold or silver!"

  Captain Colin's eyes lit up immediately when he heard that Mr. William in front of him was the youngest son of the baron, and then he reported respectfully.

   "Although these things are useless to me at the moment, they can be exchanged for a lot of money, so it's not a waste of hard work!"

  Hearing that there was no gold and silver, William's face immediately collapsed, and he muttered a little unhappy.

   "However, your arrival, sir, is my greatest achievement!" Immediately, a gratified smile appeared on William's face.

   "My lord, your status is so prominent, why did you come to the Caribbean Sea?" As the fleet sailed, the two gradually became familiar with each other. Captain Colin was a little puzzled about William coming to the Caribbean Sea.

  The son of a baron should have a prominent status and live a good life. Why would he suddenly want to come to sea to find a life? This made him very puzzled.

   "It's nothing, I suddenly like to come out for a ride, take a look!"

  William's burly body and his lonely words surprised Colin suddenly. Could there be some story?

   "Do you know Newfoundland?" William suddenly looked back at the sea and asked Colin.

   "Of course, there is a well-known fishing ground, and the fish is very rich, and many fishing boats go fishing!"

   "I'll go there this time, but I'm not going fishing, but building a city!"

   Speaking of this, William's face was inexplicably excited.

   "I want to build a city that belongs to the English, a city that belongs to me!"

  Of course, the last thing I want is to return to your hometown in a good time and inherit the title, just because of your birth order.
