Pirates: Beyond Akainu

Chapter 71 Post-War Report
The Battle of Silvermine Island was a complete naval victory.

Half of the pirates on the island were killed, and the other half surrendered.

Among the cadres, Peseta was killed, and Abelon and Dezaya were captured alive.

On the other hand, Bilu, the leader of the Silver Pirates, thought he was dead, but the navy doctor found that he was still breathing, but his head was rusted, and his condition after waking up was unknown.

The navy has finished cleaning up the battlefield, and Dauberman, the commander of this battle, personally called Marshal Akainu to report.

Boo boo boo boo...

Dauberman: "Reporting to the marshal, we have destroyed the Silver Pirates and occupied Silver Mine Island."

Akainu: "Well, good work, good."

Then, Dauberman reported to Akainu the casualties between the enemy and ourselves. In general, the navy won at a small cost.

Akainu praised again, and asked: "By the way, how did Xiu Zuo and Xiu En perform this time?"

"They performed very well. Xiu Zuo fought bravely to kill the enemy, and Xiu En sacrificed his life for his companions. They will definitely be great naval generals in the future."

Dauberman briefly told the story of the battle, focusing on the process of Xiu Zuo Xiuen working together to defeat Bilu in the underground pit. This was reported to him by others.

Dauberman: "I estimate that if Xiu Zuo and Xiu En hadn't stopped Bilu in the end, when the pirate Bilu ate the ore to a certain extent, it would cause the ore to resonate on the entire island and stimulate the magma in the ground. Our navy wouldn't be able to do it. There will be heavy casualties."

Akainu was silent and moved after hearing this.

Because in the original timeline, Bilu ate so much ore that he went berserk, causing a chain reaction on Silver Mine Island, and eventually the entire island sank.

Akainu was originally very interested in the ores of Bilu and Silver Mine Island, and even thought about reminding Dauberman and the others that they must catch Biru alive, as Silver Mine Island was also quite valuable.

But Akainu didn't say anything after all, because he wanted to see what Dauberman and the others would do.

Akainu believes that as he changes more and more timelines, the situation will develop in a direction that he cannot predict, and the situation will change.

At that time, he will lose this ability to predict the plot and must cultivate a group of reliable subordinates in advance.

Now it seems that Dauberman and the others are doing a good job.

Akainu felt gratified: "Lieutenant General Dauberman can be alone, which will make me feel that I am not alone on the way forward."

Dauberman quickly declined in fear: "I don't dare to take it. Marshal, I even want to apologize to you. This battle can achieve such a victory. First, we have detailed information about Silver Mine Island, and second, our army is far stronger than the pirates." "

Dauberman's voice trembled slightly, "But even so, my command was still wrong. I treated the Silver Pirates as ordinary pirates and underestimated their unity, which made Xiuzao's back-up plan completely useless and greatly delayed End of battle time.”

"I myself did not kill Bilu in time. If he succeeds in the end, with such an advantage, and if we lose miserably, I will have no shame in going back to the navy headquarters to meet the marshal again."

"It's not that serious, Lieutenant General Dauberman." Akainu comforted softly, "Your arrangement is the most appropriate. No one can predict the unexpected situation on the battlefield, and no one can deduce the original decision from the results."

Akainu thought for a moment and changed the subject: "Remember to escort Bilu back to the Navy Headquarters. His abilities may be of great use to me."

"As you order, Marshal."

"There is also Silver Mine Island. The output cannot be wasted. Leave a team of navy and a warship to station there. There are miners on the island, right?"

Dauberman: "There is a Marshal, and I will arrange this."

Akainu: "In short, I am very satisfied with the final result. There is no problem with your arrangement. When we return to the headquarters, we will have a celebration drink together."

"Yes, Marshal."

Dauberman hung up the phone in a slightly depressed mood, but after many battles, he quickly picked up his mood and made arrangements for the aftermath.

on the deck of a warship.

Brigadier General Xiu En was bandaging his bloody palm, and blood was left on the floor.

All around, the sailors who heard about Xiu En's deeds were greatly changed in their view of the commodore. He was not the "lucky minister" that the navy had always said.

"You're too messy. Even if you don't get it in the end, I can still deal with him." Xiu Zuo wrapped his arms twice and stood beside him, humming.

Xiu En was also a little scared and said: "The situation was critical and my mind went crazy. It was a bit. If I didn't have these hands, I would be useless."

"Don't worry, the exercise will not be in vain." The experienced old military doctor bandaged Xiu En and said at the same time: "The reason why your hand did not melt this time is not because you are lucky, but because you have finally reached the point where you are domineering after a long period of exercise." threshold."

Xiu En was surprised and delighted: "Really!?"

"It's true." Xiu Zola couldn't help but feel angry, "You are really only a layer of window paper away from the armed domineering."

"Great, finally..." Meng Xiuen's tears had soaked his face towel.

Xiu Zuo watched from the side, then withdrew his gaze, turned around and left, walked a few steps and turned his back to Xiu En and said: "Although it's just a final kick, this last kick will stump many people. If you work hard enough, Come back to the Navy Headquarters and find me, and I will give you a full day of special training."

"I heard that, thank you!" Xiu En immediately responded.

Xiu Zuo left directly.

……

The cleaning of the battlefield and the reception of loot have been completed, and the navy is packed up and ready to return.

Before setting sail.

Lieutenant General Dauberman issued the stationing order to Lieutenant Colonel Ott.

"Lieutenant Colonel Ott, in the name of Marshal of the Navy Headquarters, orders your troops to be stationed on Silver Mine Island to supervise the normal production of the miners."

Order issued.

The navy didn't say anything yet, and among the pirates detained, especially the group of miners, there was a burst of wailing.

Dauberman's eyes turned cold when he saw this, and he shouted: "If you don't want to, I will behead you all and push your bodies into the sea!"

The highest officer in the navy roared, and the pirates immediately fell silent.

Next to Dauberman, Shuen, who had already bandaged his hands, said: "Lieutenant General, they may have misunderstood. Can I say a few words and make arrangements for the miners' work?"

Dauberman nodded.

Xiu En stepped forward and faced the group of miners and pirates, "Don't worry, everyone, although you still have to mine, I allow you to come to the ground and rest. In addition to the eight hours of sleep, you will have another five days of rest every day." How's the hour?"

As soon as these words came out, the resistance of the miners and pirates was no longer strong. This was much better than the previous slave treatment.

Xiu En: "Yes, we will not treat you as slaves, but we also ask you to recognize that you are pirates and guilty. Mining here is your atonement. When you work long enough, I I will propose to the marshal that you be freed."

The hope of "freedom" was given, and the pirate miners finally chose to accept it.

Xiu En also named the miner Mailer who reminded him before and appointed him as the mine director.Mailer happily agreed.

As for Xiu En's arrangements, Dauberman asked Lieutenant Colonel Ott to accept them all.

"I didn't expect that Brigadier General Xiu En would have such a benevolent heart." Dauberman looked at Xiu En with deep meaning in his eyes.

Xiu En replied: "No, I follow the marshal and will never tolerate pirates. It's just that when we have an absolute advantage, if we want the pirates to work, we still have to give them some benefits."

"That's good, but I hope you can see clearly that, generally speaking, our navy does not yet have an absolute advantage over pirates, and it is not yet time to talk about mercy."

Dauberman's eyes were cold, and the scars on his face were proof of his determination.The navy's coat of justice was fluttering, and Dauberman waved his hand, gave the order, and set sail.
