Transcendent Journey
Chapter 372
Slap——
The flicking whip made a loud blast above the slaves’ heads.
“Hurry up! Hurry up and carry all the silver to the boat. If the sailing time is delayed, I will take your skin off!”
As the supervisor of the sea army soldier Gao He yelled and urged them to speed up.
Because the construction time is too short, Potosí III Island has not used animal power for the time being, let alone steam equipment. At present, no matter how heavy the work is, it is the shoulders of the indigenous slaves. Hand resistance.
However.
Who cares?
Anyway, the slave’s life is worthless.
Obviously, no matter who wins or loses in this “Silver War” concerning Potosi’s belonging, there is no essential difference to the original owners of these new continents.
No matter who gains control of Potosí, it is indispensable to capture wild Atrians on the continent as slaves and engage in the most dangerous mining work.
But at this time, most of the slave team are Atrians from the new continent, and some Anuma from the southern continent, but there are still quite a few white-skinned people from the old continent. Neimanste.
Because these people… are also slaves!
But they are slightly better than the natives because of their status as contract slaves, they don’t have to be slaves for a lifetime, but they can regain their freedom after a certain period of time.
Due to poverty, politics, religion, etc., these residents of the old continent came to the new continent to find a chance to live.
But because I was too poor to pay the toll, I signed a contract with the owner or employer to compensate the ship’s freight with four to seven years of unpaid labor.
And don’t think that they are a small number compared with the indigenous slaves, according to the statistics of the scholars dispatched by Falitis to the new continent.
At present, about 60% of all Nemansters in the northern region of the new continent are such contract slaves, or have been contract slaves!
Compared with the “stupid” Atrians or Anuma people, these people have more or less mastered a little technology, or have stronger learning and communication skills, and can take on the richest in mining work. Technical content.
For example: the silver ore is heated with salt and water, then combined with mercury to form a silver amalgam, and finally the mercury is evaporated to obtain silver.
However, compared with those indigenous slaves who require high-intensity manual labor and have been exhausted in just over a month after the facilities are built, these Neimansters are not much stronger.
If the protection is not in place, you will not necessarily die from chronic mercury poisoning at any time.
At present, the No. 1 and No. 2 mines belonging to Sirius, and the No. 3 mine belonging to the Three Kingdoms, all mining and refining facilities have been completed.
Under full mining, the total daily output of silver mine is about 660 kg.
Although the reserves of No. 3 island account for only 1/4/2021, the actual output can account for nearly half of the total output, which is about 320 kg.
Because of the low reserves, it does not mean that the mining speed is slow. The manpower and material resources behind the three countries have been mobilized, even exceeding Sirius’ investment in a single mine.
Obviously, the high-levels of various countries who feel that there is something wrong with the current wind are eager to complete the mining of what they deserve as soon as possible, and they can also stay away from Sirius, the overbearing neighbour as soon as possible.
However, even with full support, it may take at least several decades for the time scale to empty this silver mountain.
After more than a month of reserves, there are currently 12,000 kg of silver reserves on the third island. According to the agreement between the three countries, each has 4,000 kg, which is a full four. Tons of silver.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, the Chief-In-Charge stationed here has decided to ship this batch of refined silver ingots back to their respective base camps in the colonies as soon as possible.
Furthermore, it has become a rule that the total amount of silver ingots accumulated reaches 12,000 kg and will be cleared once. Staying with the notorious Sirius, several Chief-In-Charge also feel great pressure .
dong! dong! dong! …
Under the scolding of the supervisors, a group of slaves transported 120 heavy wooden boxes to the docks. On three cruise ships.
There are three other warships next to the escort.
Although it does not have the ability to open a channel like the “Guardian Commander”, so long is enough for them to explore a safe deep-water channel in the reefs on the periphery of the archipelago, allowing large warships to enter the port.
For a cruise ship, the four-ton weight of trifling is not much different from that of a feather. It is completely capable of transporting the silver back to its own territory at the fastest speed.
Furthermore, the armistice agreement of the four countries has been signed and the justice of the respective churches has been passed. At least at this point, there is no need to worry that Sirius will go back on one’s word and send warships to intercept.
After a while.
“Pull the anchor! Set sail!”
The captains of the cruise ships on the mission issued orders, and a total of six battleships sailed out of the temporary port on Island Three.
Sark and Atlan go west together, while Falitis goes south. For each country’s silver fleet, one battleship is responsible for transportation and one is responsible for escort.
Even ordinary big pirates dare not attack their ideas, under normal circumstances it is enough to ensure foolproof.
But…
Just six hours after leaving the Potosí Islands, the warships of the Three Kingdoms were already in trouble.
“The crown, the skeleton, and the scimitar of blood, that are the men of Bradley, one of the two kings of the yellow golden sea, the “Oathbearer”!
A total of five A sloop faster than us!
Send a signal to retreat!”
Captain Falitis, who is responsible for transporting silver, also wants to send a semaphore to emphasize their identity and let them Retreat in the face of difficulties.
“Come on, catch the side, and seize the ship!”
A group of dexterous sloops ignored them, already like a pack of wolves, without hesitation. The battleship containing silver in the battleship was culled.
They obviously knew the situation of the transport fleet a long time ago.
The encounter between Sark and Atlant’s four warships is even more desperate.
“That’s the flagship of the Oath Bearer Bradley, the Chiseltooth!!!”
Faced with a Peak Great Knight’s personal looting, four The officers and soldiers on the warship were instantly ashamed.
“hahaha! Hand over the silver, I can not kill you!”
The giant over two and a half meters tall stood on the bow of the ship, and the thunderous voice echoed on the sea for a long time. .
Although the previous attacks by the pirates did not have an immediate effect on the battle situation, many even followed Bradley’s call to attack the pirate ships in the Sark and Atlan colonies, and they disappeared halfway through. a trace.
This also made Bradley consciously lose face.
But now Sirius is still willing to give them a chance.
As long as there are enough political contributions, the previous promises are still valid!
So… looting at sea, who is not plundering?
Now Sirius is facing a huge military deficit. In order to prevent the mutiny of the bottom soldiers who rely on military payments, every Silver Coin is extremely precious to Sirius.
Of course, the ready-made Potosi silver mine re-entered their vision immediately. While appeasing the low-level soldiers who were emotionally fluctuated because the military payment was not in place, they accelerated their actions to plan.
Although the silver mine property rights have been unable to openly repent because of the justice of the gods, the output can be taken 100% by Bradley’s hands, and this extremely easy-to-mine silver mine can be realized as soon as possible!
As for after re-raising enough military expenses, do you want to continue this looting operation, hehe…
……
Hu— —Suck——
Ivan is holding a wooden long sword for training, using the most basic Knight’s Breathing Technique, and practicing the “white sail sword technique” one by one.
Transform the gains in Spirit Realm into physical memory, and then truly become a part of your own strength.
Although the ability of reality can be replicated in Spirit Realm, there is always a difference between using Soul Body and using the body for the same sword technique.
Stab it——
gradually Ivan’s iron-wood training sword with no bladed surface appears to have a thin white mist on the surface, and it will faintly tear after lightly swinging it. The ear-piercing sound of the air.
Step on!
Ivan’s slightly closed eyes suddenly became clear.
Suddenly stepping, the force from the soles of the feet is like a full bow, and the strength of all the skeleton, fascia, and muscles in the body suddenly pierces a sword.
Bah——
In black’s sawdust fluttering, a thick iron stake in front of Ivan has been pierced with a training sword.
The wound is smooth and even no roughness is visible.
This is an iron wood with the same material as the wooden sword in his hand and almost as hard as steel!
Even if there is a pair of Knight heavy armor, the ending will not be the slightest difference.
“Huh—”
Ivan slowly exhaled a white breath, his face remained the same. Obviously such a formidable power sword did not actually cost him too much effort. .
At this time, with concentrated attention completely prepared again, he was able to use a powerful force like sword qi on his own.
It has reached the level where Sirius Peak Knight Reynolds Class Colonel, who had been sunk into the seabed, used the highest Profound Truth.
bang bang bang bang!
A young man wearing a training suit and holding a wooden sword beside him couldn’t help clapping excitedly when he saw such a sword.
Calvin never expected that his teacher was not only a magical wizard, but also a master of the sword technique.
In his opinion, whether or not it requires preparation to use sword qi, this is already a Sword Master-level ability.
If he didn’t want to look too much like a child, he would almost have jumped up.
‘I really made a lot of money by joining such a teacher! ‘
“Calvin, you already have a certain foundation of the sword technique before. Now that your body recovers, it shouldn’t be difficult to pick it up again.
Especially the apprenticeship of the wizard. Battle strength is far inferior to a formal Knight. You can try to practice the sword technique simultaneously after completing the learning plan I made for you.
At least have the ability to protect yourself during the apprenticeship, work and rest Combining will not delay your witchcraft learning.”
Ivan turned around and was about to point out his second disciple.
Suddenly.
Swish——
A tern fell from in the sky and brought Ivan an urgent letter from Dearbornburg, summon he went to ” Fort Dearborn” pay respects to emergency meetings.
After dare not delay for a few hours, he saw Lieutenant General Gustav with a gloomy face and other senior officers who also participated in the meeting.
“There is a very bad news to tell everyone…”
The first batch of output from the Potosi Silver Mine was encountered during transportation. “The attack by Bradley and his pirates, after the tern was released in advance, there was no news so far.
Not only Falitis, Sark and Atlan are also the same.
Even including tulip member countries, all countries that have interests in the new continent have successively reported losses of varying degrees, and they are getting worse.
There are pirates and Sirius’s army…
Although everyone can afford to lose the output in the first month, the occurrence of this kind of incident reveals to them Gave a very bad signal.
Sirius’s new continent policy has been further tightened, and the rope has been looped around the necks of other countries, and the attitude of taking and taking is hardly concealed!
Sirius’s series of actions in response to the destruction of the Treasure Fleet seemed like a fuse, bursting the already nervous nerves of various countries.
In just a few days, all countries have reached a consensus.
“Sirius must pay for his arrogance! Countries must also counteract it!”
When the perpetrator is complacent for obtaining large short-term benefits, a A comprehensive anti-Sirius alliance has quietly formed…
