Chapter 372: The Fuse and the Anti-Hilius Alliance

Snapped--
　　 The flick of the whip made a loud explosion 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!"
　　 The navy soldier who was the overseer shouted and urged them to speed up.
　　Because the construction time is too short, Potos III Island has not used animal power yet, let alone steam equipment. At present, no matter how heavy the work is, it is the indigenous slaves' shoulders and hands.
　　 But.
　　Who cares?
　　 The slave's life is worthless anyway.
　　 Obviously, no matter who wins and who wins in this "Silver War" about Potosi's belonging, there is no essential difference to the original owners of these New Worlds.
　　 No matter who gains control of Potosí, he will inevitably go to the mainland to capture wild Atrians as slaves and engage in the most dangerous mining work.
　　 However, most of the slave team at this time were Atrians from the New World, and some Anuma from the Southern Continent, but there were still quite a few white-skinned Nemansters from the Old World.
　　Because these people...also slaves!
　　 But they are slightly better than the natives because because of their status as contract slaves, they don't have to be slaves for a lifetime, but can be free after a certain period of time.
　　Due to poverty, politics, religion, etc., these residents of the Old World came to the New World 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 native slaves, according to the statistics of the scholars dispatched by Falitis to the New World.
　　 At present, about 60% of all the Nemansters in the northern part of the New World 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 most technical part of the mining work.
　　 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 the indigenous slaves who required intensive manual labor and had been exhausted in just over a month after the facility was built, these Nemansters were not much stronger.
　　 If the protection is not in place, you will not necessarily die due to chronic mercury poisoning.
　　 At present, the No. 1 and No. 2 mines belonging to Hillius, 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 kilograms.
　　 Although the reserves of No. 3 island account for only a quarter, the actual output can account for nearly half of the total output, which is about 320 kilograms.
　　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 the investment of Hilius in a single mine.
　　 Obviously, the high-levels of various countries who feel that the current wind is a little wrong, eagerly want to finish mining their due part as soon as possible, and can also stay away from the overbearing neighbour of Sirius as soon as possible.
　　 But even with full support, it may take at least several decades to empty this silver mountain.
　　 After more than a month of reserves, there are currently 12,000 kg of silver reserves on Island Three. According to the agreement between the three countries, each has 4,000 kg, which is a full 4 tons of silver.
　　 In order to avoid long nights and dreams, the responsible persons stationed here have decided to ship this batch of refined silver ingots back to their respective base camps in the colonies as soon as possible.
　　 And it has become a rule that the total amount of silver ingots accumulated will reach 12,000 kilograms and a clearing will be carried out. Staying with the notorious Hilius, several responsible persons also feel great pressure.
　　咚! Boom! Boom! ...
　　 Under the scolding of the overseers, a group of slaves transported 120 heavy wooden boxes to the three cruise ships docked at the dock.
There are three other warships next to 　　 in charge of escorting.
　　Although they do not have the ability to open a channel like the "King Guard", 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.
　　 A mere four-ton load is not much different from a feather for a cruise ship, and it can transport the silver back to its own territory at the fastest speed.
　　Moreover, the armistice agreement of the four countries has been signed and the justice of the respective churches has been passed. At least on this point, there is no need to worry that Hilius will turn back and send a warship to intercept.
　　 after a moment.
　　 "Drop the anchor! Set sail!"
　　 The captains of the cruise ship on mission issued orders one after another, and a total of six warships sailed out of the temporary port on Island Three.
　　Sac and Atlan go west together, while Falitis goes south. Each country’s silver fleet has one warship for transport and one for escort.
　　 Even if ordinary big pirates dare not hit their ideas, under normal circumstances it is enough to ensure foolproof.
　　 But...
　　 Just after leaving the Potosí Islands for only six hours, the warships of the Three Kingdoms were already in trouble.
　　"The crown, the skeleton, and the scimitar are those of Bradley, the "Oath Bearer", one of the Golden Sea Kings!
　　 has assembled five sloops that are faster than us!
　　 signaled them to leave! "
　　 Captain Falettis, who was in charge of transporting silver, also wanted to send out a semaphore to emphasize their identity, so that they would retreat.
　　 "Get up, take the side, and grab the ship!"
　　A group of dexterous sloops ignored them, already like a pack of wolves, without hesitation, they rushed to the two warships that contained silver.
　　 They apparently knew everything about the transport fleet.
　　 The encounter between Sark and Atlant's four warships is even more desperate.
　　 "That is the flagship "Chisel Tooth" of "Oath Bearer" Bradley!!!"
　　 Faced with the personal looting of a peak knight, the officers and soldiers on the four warships were instantly ashamed.
　　 "Hahaha! Hand over the silver, I can't kill you!"
　　 The giant over two and a half meters tall stood on the bow, 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, many of the pirate ships that followed Bradley's call to attack the Sac and Atlan colonies disappeared in the middle of the road without a trace.
　　 This also made Bradley consciously lose face.
　　 But now Hilius is still willing to give them a chance.
　　 As long as there is enough political donation, the previous promise is still valid!
　　 So... plunder at sea, who is not plunder?
　　 Now Hilius is facing a huge military deficit. In order to prevent the mutiny of the bottom soldiers who rely solely on military payments, every silver coin is extremely precious to Hilius.
　　 Of course, the ready-made Potosí silver mine re-entered their field of vision in the first place. While appeasing the low-level soldiers who were emotionally fluctuated because of the late military payment, 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 still want to continue this plundering operation, ha ha...
　　......
Breathe--
　　 Aiwen holds a wooden long sword for training and uses the most basic knight breathing method to practice "White Sail Swordsmanship" one by one.
　　 transforms the harvest in the spirit world into physical memory, and then truly becomes a part of its own strength.
　　 Although it is possible to reproduce the abilities of reality in the spirit world, there is always a difference between using the soul body and the body for the same swordsmanship.
　　 stab!
　　 Gradually, the surface of the iron-wood training sword without the blade in Ivan's hand, seemed to have a thin layer of white mist, and it was faintly pierced by the ears of tearing the air when it lightly swung it.
　　 step!
　　 Aiwen's eyes closed slightly.
　　 stepped suddenly, the force from the soles of the feet was like a fully stretched bow, and the strength of all the bones, fascia, and muscles in the body suddenly pierced out a sword.
　　呲
　　Amidst the black sawdust flying around, 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 heavy knight armor, the ending will not be the slightest difference.
　　 "Hoo"
　　 Aiwen slowly breathed out a white breath, his face remained unchanged, it was obvious that such a powerful sword did not actually cost him too much effort.
　　 At this time, with full concentration and preparation, he was able to use a powerful force like sword aura on his own.
　　 has reached the level that Colonel Reynolds Class, the knight of Hilius, who had been sunk into the sea, had used the highest profundity.
　　 Happiness!
　　 Next to him, a young man wearing a training suit and holding a wooden sword could not 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 swordsmanship.
　　 In his opinion, whether or not it requires preparation to use sword aura, this is already a master swordsmanship 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 in swordsmanship before, and now it shouldn't be difficult to pick it up again after your body recovers.
　　Especially the combat power of a wizard at the apprentice level is far inferior to that of a formal knight. You can try to practice swordsmanship simultaneously after completing the learning plan I have set for you.
　　 can at least have the ability to protect yourself in the apprenticeship stage, the combination of work and rest will not delay your witchcraft learning. "
　　 Aiwen turned around~EbookFREE.me~ and was about to give pointers to his second disciple.
　　 suddenly.
　　嗖
　　 A tern fell from the sky and brought Ivan an urgent letter from Fort Dearborn, summoning him to go to "Fort Dearborn" to attend an emergency meeting.
　　 After a few hours did not dare to delay, 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 attacked by the "Oath Bearer" Bradley and his pirates during transportation. There was no news after the tern call was released in advance.
　　 It's not just Falettis, but Zack and Atlan are also the same.
　　Even including the Tulip member countries, all countries with interests in the New World have successively reported losses of varying degrees, and they are getting worse.
　　There are pirates and Hilius's army...
　　 Although everyone can afford to lose the output in the first month, the occurrence of this kind of incident has revealed a very bad signal to them.
　　 Hilius’s New World policy has been further tightened, and he has put the rope loop around the necks of other countries, and his attitude of taking and taking is hardly a cover!
　　 The series of actions that Silius made because of the destruction of the treasure fleet seemed like a fuse, bursting the already nervous nerves of various countries.
　　 Within a few days, all countries have reached a consensus.
　　 "Hilius must pay for his arrogance! Countries must also counteract it!"
　　 When the perpetrators are complacent for obtaining large short-term benefits, a comprehensive anti-Hilius alliance has quietly formed...
