Ten days later, just south of the bay, a brand new "base" was formed.

The base is a mixed building of concrete and wood, which can live about 500 people. In addition, a horse farm with stables is set up near the base, where a large amount of weed has been deserted for tens of thousands of years.

The 600 horses of Nikan's three hundred Shenwu Army came ashore. After sailing on the sea for such a long time, about half of the 600 horses fell ill. Under the careful care of the keepers, most of them recovered ten days later, but it would probably take the same time to restore all of these horses.

Hundreds of large ships cannot bring everyone to the shore to live, but it is still possible to go to the shore to engage in activities during the day and rest on the shore at night.

In the past ten days, Nikan took some people to almost travel around the entire East Island on horseback and found a large amount of peat. In fact, on the other side of the base, there was lignite on the narrow peninsula, which made Nikan feel a sense of "It is indeed a heaven-given island."

It seems that in the nineteenth century, there was no reason for the British to move the port here from other places.

The altitude of the other shore is slightly higher, just twenty or thirty meters, and is only about one mile wide. It is easy to dig such a place.

After the professionals in the fleet discovered more lignite production areas in other parts of the island, a base that was at least inexhaustible in fuel was about to emerge - peat all over the island could be used for heating, cooking and water, etc. After a slight treatment of lignite could still be used on the ship.

In the past month, the base's coal warehouse and the coal cabinets on the ship have been completely filled. Among them, the Japanese farmers accompanying the ship and the captives of the three pirate ships played a lot.

For these pirates, Nikan still adopted the old method of winning over one group of people to attack another group. Under his gaze, Edmund shot Frank with a short gun, and then the pirates who threw themselves to Edmund to kill the other pirates who were loyal to Mario and Frank, leaving only one hundred pirates led by Edmund.

These are pirates who are familiar with the routes on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean and the geographical structure, especially the Caribbean Sea. This time, Nikan didn't want to kill them all.

In a newly built courtyard at the base, Edmund sat tremblingly opposite Nikan. In the middle was the iron stove commonly found in the Daxia Kingdom. Two glasses of wine were placed on the iron stove, a high-quality soju produced in the Daxia Kingdom.

After taking a sip, Edmund immediately felt hot all over and his head was a little dizzy.

Here is Nikan's conversation with him.

"Why did you become a pirate?"

"God of General", at this time Nikan did not reveal his true identity, but asked his subordinates to call him "General", making Edmund think that he was a powerful general from a far east country.

"I have been traveling between Guyana and Europe, transporting the sugar, tobacco and essence of Guyana to France. I have traveled every year. In ten years, I have only arrived in France successfully. Fortunately, although I was robbed by pirates five times, I did not rob my little sweetheart... Cough, it's that merchant ship."

"The last time, last year, I was robbed again. This time, they not only wanted the cargo on the ship, but also my ship. I thought, since this is the case, I might as well join them. If I have good luck, I might as well make a lot of money in a few years of work and return to France."

"You didn't tell the truth," Nikan suddenly snorted coldly, and then he said to Lin Laifu, who was responsible for the translation beside him, "Tell him what methods do we have for the dishonest people?"

Lin Laifu said: "First remove the clothes of a person's body, then nail them to the cross, and then cut off the work under his crotch. It is windy here, but the temperature is not too low. You will die from the cold, bleeding and pain in ten days."

"Before death, we may cut off his hands and feet, and throw them into the sea beast group, or throw them into the sea. I heard that there are many murderous whales here, so I guess they will also be willing to taste a human meat meal..."

"Wait!" Edmund's face was filled with sweat. In the pirate group, the methods of dealing with traitors were also violent, but as Lin Laifu said just now, he was scared suddenly, but he was still hesitant.

"Take him out and do what Lin Laifu said just now!"

"I said, I said," Edmund suddenly fell from the chair and crawled in front of Nikan.

"Dear Your Excellency, I am indeed a businessman, but I have only been for a year."

“Where did it?”

"The Mediterranean Sea was robbed by the most domineering Ottoman pirates in the Mediterranean a year later, and then became their slaves, specifically for them to sail the boat. By chance, I ran into a pirate ship from Europe. I jumped out of the sea and was rescued by that ship."

"It's that black beard Mario?"

"No, it was another person who followed that person in the Mediterranean for several years. After that person died, he took over his position."

"And then come to the Caribbean?"

"Yes, the Mediterranean is almost the world of Ottoman pirates, and the peninsula led by Genoa and Venice often dispatched navies to encircle and suppress pirates. In the past, the Ottomans encouraged pirates in the Mediterranean to rob merchant ships of European countries, but they changed this practice not long ago."

"oh?"

Finally, I heard some valuable information, Nikan was still careless on his face, but he became a little excited inside.

"I have heard that in the past, because of the incompetence of the Ottoman king, the Bosphorus was blocked by the Genoese fleet. Not long ago, great figures from European countries gathered in Switzerland. After that, the Genoese fleet disappeared, the Ottomans regained control of the strait, and also encircled and suppressed the pirates on many islands in the Aegean Sea."

"What do you think?"

"Your Excellency, I am just a pirate. What do you think?"

"Haha," Nikan sneered, "You are a down-and-out nobleman in Nantes. Although you are down-and-out, you still have an industry in Nantes and are much better than ordinary people. When you were twenty-five years old, you became a lover of Bishop Nantes."

Edmond was shocked, "Although he was involved in the pirate group and had pirates under his command, they were all from Marseille and Corsica, and none of them were from Nantes. Most of these pirates had started this business many years ago, and it was impossible for them to know their background. Even if they interrogated others separately, they could not know, how..."

The sweat beads on his face suddenly changed from "fine" to "bean size", and this scene naturally could not escape Nikan's eyes.

"After the bishop discovered it, he would naturally use religion to attack you, but you were not a good person. He actually passed on the message that he had several mistresses and illegitimate children in Nantes. You originally thought that doing so would suppress the bishop, but it was a pity."

"Haha, at this time, the European countries, including France, were all preface-sounding and insidious. Is the current French person in power a cardinal named Mazaran? Haha, Bishop Nantes is the person's confidant"

"And I heard that Mazaran is the lover of the current queen mother of your country. The king is only sixteen years old. Mazaran covers the sky with one hand. In this way, France cannot tolerate you. If you still stay in France, you will either be burned or hanged for religious reasons, or suddenly disappear in the Loire River near the Atlantic Ocean or Nantes."

"So you ran away, but you were vicious and spread the affair between Mazaran and the Queen Mother throughout Nantes before escaping from Nantes. Since becoming a pirate in the country, you have spread this news in Marseille and Montpellier, and finally the whole of France knows about this scandal."

"However, Mazaran's position is still stable, and his family has made a lot of money. He holds the rights of France. When he finds out that you are naturally angry when you are causing trouble, he arrests all your relatives who are left in Nantes and deliberately locks them up in the Eveburg Prison in Marseille to lure you over and rescue. Unexpectedly, you are very hard-hearted and ignores the safety of your family..."

When he said this, Nikan saw Edmund's upper body move slightly, his eyelids twitched, and thought to himself: "Does this person still have a trace of conscience?"

Then he continued tentatively: "Is your only daughter named Sophia? If I remember well, I am just ten years old this year, so you will have the heart to let her go to Eveburg Prison at a young age?"

"Stop talking!"

Edmund suddenly roared, and Nikan saw his back twitching, knowing that his words played some role.

"Your Mightiness"

After a while, Edmund returned to his calm, "I remember that your country of Great Xia is now quite famous in Europe. It should have a shopping mall in Paris, Nantes or Marseille. Almost everyone in the whole country knows about that guy, so you naturally know. We three pirate leaders, you must have a purpose. Tell me, for Sophia, I can do anything."

"Oh? Stay you? That's because you surrendered early in the morning when you saw the opportunity. Otherwise, you would have been killed by one shot. But now you are in France, no, no, no, there is a little name among the upper-class people in Europe, so our country naturally knows it. I didn't expect that after you became a pirate, you continued to use this name. You seem gentle, but you are not very brave."

Edmund climbed forward two steps, lay on Nikan's horse boots and kissed.

"Dear General, as long as I can save Sophia, I can do anything."

"Is that true? It's okay to let you be a devil?"

"Your Excellency, do you see the names of the other two ships? One is called the Skull and the other is called the Devil. Those who become pirates are all abandoned by God. Anyway, they are going to enter hell, so what kind of devil do they care about him?"

"good!"

Nikan stood up.

"Tell you that the whole of Europe can save Sophia, that is, my country of Daxia..."

"Your people know Mazaran?"

"No"

"That……"

"Haha, the chief judge of Marseille is closely related to our business halls, and the warden of Eveburg Prison happens to be the judge's confidant."

"But to deal with Mazaran, this is not enough."

"Oh? What if the Empress Dowager comes forward?"

“…”

"Don't worry, I'll do what I say and save Sophia is easy, but before that, you have to do things for our country for at least five years. If I think what you do is valuable, a healthy and beautiful Sophia will appear in front of you intact."

"By the way, you named the ship in it 'Little Sweet', just for Sophia."
