Chapter 57 Workers and Tasks ([-]) [Newbies, please recommend, collect, and invest]

A few months passed in a blink of an eye, autumn went to summer, and the time came to the end of May 1728.

In Wendo Castle, Rey was lying on the old man's chair, drinking wine and eating skewers, enjoying a rare and comfortable time. He suddenly asked Haraid next to him, "Cousin, how are the conditions of Elizabeth and the others recently? The personnel training is completed. Are you sure you can carry out the mission? I have been waiting for too long~"

"Rey, the news is that they are all working hard and no one is lazy, especially the one named Will who may have done it. They should be ready to go in a few days, and you can relax a little."

"Really...if it's true..."

…………

In the dark night, the port of Wenduobao was still brightly lit and bustling with activity.Teams of soldiers are transporting various supplies to armed merchant ships and supply ships, checking the conditions of the ships, and making final preparations before leaving port.

Rey stood by the window sill of the meeting room in the Earl's Mansion, looking at a busy but orderly pier, narrowing his eyes slightly, thinking about something secretly, and suddenly called out: "Hackett Barbossa!"

"My lord! I am here, what are your orders?"

Captain Barbosa, who was sitting on the sofa, stood up quickly, bent his head and bent over, with a flattering smile on his face, as much as he wanted.

"Captain Barbossa, do you believe that great times create great people?"

"My Lord Count...I..." Captain Barbossa was stunned and didn't know how to answer.

After all, in this Western world that is full and popular of personal heroism, what has always been emphasized is that great people create great eras. For example, Alexander the Great is to the Alexander Empire, Augustus is to ancient Rome, and Queen Elizabeth is to China. Nothing more than that.

"Captain Barbossa, we are in this great era of navigation and geographical discovery. The era has created countless great people who belong to this historical period. You can say that they are lucky and have bad luck, or you can say that they are just It’s because I was born early and took advantage of it.”

"But they will all shine through the annals of history and leave their indelible mark on the world. Think of Columbus, Magellan, and Hudson... Do you think you are worse than these pioneering captains? Think of you You are doing nothing, Pirate King Caspian, how did this piece of garbage come into your hands, are you willing to do so?"

"My lord, I..."

"Needless to say, I know that you must be unwilling! If you were willing, how could you launch a riot and betray Captain Jack? How could you choose to rob the Black Pearl and become the captain of the ghost pirate ship that wreaks havoc in all directions!"

"As the saying goes, a first mate who doesn't want to be a captain is not a good first mate. I understand your reluctance..."

Captain Barbossa raised his head when he heard this, and from the corner of his eye, he secretly glanced at Rey, who was giving a passionate speech to criticize Fang Qiu. He moved his lips slightly, but did not dare to say anything, only the trembling folds on his face. Revealing how fucked up he was inside.

Captain Barbossa felt aggrieved in his heart and just wanted to shout: "No! Lord Earl, you misunderstood. I am resigned now and don't want to bother anymore. I just want to be a salted fish and use my remaining energy to serve Lord Earl. And Lord Earl." , we have all changed from good to evil, please can you please stop holding on to that bit of black history..."

Seeing Rey getting more and more excited as he talked, the three young men beside him became more and more excited and unbearable. Captain Barbossa finally understood that he was doomed and could only choose to lie down completely, hopeless. His dead eyes stared blankly at the carpet.

Come on, Your Majesty Earl, just do what you say, just tell me what you want to do...

"Ahem...Captain Barbossa, I have a mission like this that will make you famous in history and be famous throughout the ages. It will also make you famous several times more than Captain Jack. You are much better than the Pirate King of the Caspian Sea! I don't know what you think. How is it~?”

"Lord Earl, you are joking. It is my honor to serve you. No matter what task I accept, I will complete it to the death and live up to your trust, Earl!"

Captain Barbossa said calmly, with no trace of anything out of the ordinary. He was full of pride and honor. He was truly a seasoned veteran of the sea, and his emotional tone always made people feel comfortable.

"Since Captain Barbossa is willing to take over, let me tell you in detail the mission of Captain Barbossa and Andre."

Rey nodded with a slight smile, and a map tube appeared out of thin air in his right hand.He opened it and took out a large map, spread it on the table and slowly opened it, saying: "This map is extraordinary, extremely precious, and a priceless treasure. You must know what to say and what not to say."

Seeing the map that was slowly opened on the table reveal an unfamiliar outline, everyone present stood up and looked at the area revealed on the map with curiosity. Some were confused as to which strange place it was.Until familiar areas appeared on the map one after another, everyone covered their mouths for fear of screaming. "Your Majesty Earl...this...is this the Grayk Continent?"

Rey nodded. This was a map roughly drawn by Rey himself of the Grek continent north of 49 degrees north latitude. It not only showed the specific outline of the continent and the general topography, but also many islands.

Especially the many islands north of the Arctic Circle and west of Green Island that have not been discovered by the Western world, and the vast land east of Hudson Bay that has not yet been discovered and developed.

"Is this...really...really? Could it be...that someone has already explored and discovered this land? Sir Earl...may I ask where...this map...forget it, I'm taking the liberty..."

Captain Barbossa, who was the first to recover from the shock, was still a little incoherent. As an old man who had been at sea for decades, he knew the value of this map all too well.

If this map is true, no matter whether it is presented to the French or the French, the reward for a hereditary earl is the least.As a result, Captain Barbossa became more worried about the mission he took on.Since the earl dares to show his subordinates such confidential and valuable things, he must not be afraid of leaking it, and the tasks his subordinates have to undertake should also be extremely difficult, difficult and of high value.

If it weren't for the bondage of the contract, Captain Barbossa felt that he should have run away long ago. Now that he can't run away, he doesn't know what "good mission" the Earl will give him that will leave his name in history. He can only watch helplessly. As Rey waited for the mission, he secretly prayed that the Count would be a human being and leave a way for his mission to survive - preferably not to explore unknown areas.

Although he didn't know the saying that a general's success would lead to a thousand bones wasting away, but he knew that pioneer explorers often did not end well, and that one-third of the people who could come back alive after an exploration was not bad, and the leader People often die on the road...

"Of course the map is real. I believe you can see how valuable this map is. I won't talk nonsense. The reason I came to you is to take all the benefits on this map and take them away from others. Occupy all the known areas.”

"It's just that this map is just a rough outline. People need to verify the map and draw the real map. This requires you to make calculations after occupying these areas."

Captain Barbossa already felt that his misfortune was coming. He was reluctant to give up and made a last ditch effort. He asked: "My lord, what do you need me to do? You also know that I don't have much ability. I am really afraid of ruining your business, Count." …”

"Captain Barbossa, your mission is to lead a fleet of 13 ships to verify the northern waters of this map, draw a new map, and conquer the islands along the way. Then you lead your flagship Icebreaker and a group of It is enough for a supply transport ship to arrive and occupy this position."

As he spoke, Rey used his finger to plan the sailing route for Captain Barbossa on the map. Seeing Captain Barbossa who was suddenly a little depressed, Rey just smiled and said, "Captain Barbossa, don't be like this. In fact, this is This mission is not as difficult as you think."

"First of all, it is almost June now, and the period from May to September in the Arctic Circle is the Arctic summer, and the temperature will be higher than in other periods. Strong winds, cold and other severe weather will also be reduced. There is also the Arctic There will be extreme daylight at this time, which is conducive to shipping. You see, most of the biggest difficulties have been solved."

"Secondly, after you set off from Fort Wendo, we will still provide you with supplies and support through Fox Bay and Baffin Island, so you don't have to worry about supplies during the first half of the island exploration voyage."

"Furthermore, Captain Barbossa, you have been in Newfoundland for seven or eight months. During this time, I have always asked you to train the Aikis crew and lead them on the Hudson. I keep going back and forth between the bay and Newfoundland, I believe you have some experience.”

"Finally, if there is a problem that cannot be solved, you can still ask me for help. Andrea, you will join the mission as Captain Barbossa's deputy."

"Yes, Lord Count."

Seeing that Captain Barbossa still looked gloomy, Rey knew that in order for the horse to run, he had to let it see the carrot on its forehead.

"Captain Barbossa, Andre, if you successfully complete your mission, then I will not only reward you with a large amount of money, but this island and this island can be named Barbossa Island and Janji Island, and these two places can be named Andrea's Point, Hackett's Point. In this way, your achievements will always be remembered by future generations, how about that?"

Captain Barbossa secretly glanced at those places. They were all large islands or important locations. He nodded secretly in his heart. He had to say that the count was grand.Moreover, he also understands that he has to give up when he sees fit, and cannot bargain with the superiors, let alone be shameless, otherwise he will get nothing in the basket.

So, Captain Barbossa quickly nodded in agreement and sat down to watch the fun.Since the sea areas are all in charge of Captain Barbossa, Will and Elizabeth must be in charge of such a large land area. This task is no easier than his.

How many people can there be in such a large Arctic sea?Only God knows how many people there are on such a large land, and they know nothing except the boundaries of land and sea. Needless to say, Captain Barbossa knew that this was destined to be much more difficult than exploring the sea.
