"Silent, the commander of the Spanish Captain Luzon, Colonel Alfonso!" A Spanish soldier shouted loudly in the common Western language, and immediately made the pirates turn their attention to the hatch door.

"Gentlemen, please be quiet. Now I have received the latest news that our reconnaissance ships have determined the exact location of the Eastern pirates who plundered our Spanish royal treasure ship..." Alfonso took away the handkerchief blocking his mouth and nose, pointed to the huge sea chart hanging on the bulkhead, and announced the latest information to the pirate leaders present.

"Is this place too close to the Qing Dynasty? It will take no more than a day and a half to reach the coast of the Qing Dynasty from this island?" A pirate leader raised his own question in stuttering French.

The questioner with black hair, black eyes and yellow skin stood so eye-catching among a group of white men, and his stuttering French also caused countless snickers and ridicule.

"Isn't this guy the pigtail Liu? You've scared your courage even after one and a half days of the coast of the Qing Dynasty?" A pirate leader wearing an eye mask and a terrifying scar on his face laughed loudly.

"What did you say?!" The Chinese pirate, known as Pigtail Liu, was narrowed dangerously, and his hands were already pressed on the weapon at his waist. His head with a naked forehead and a long braid on the back of his forehead was indeed prone to ridicule by Western pirates.

"What did I say? Hahaha, tell him what I said..." The arrogant and crazy laughter and playful sounds swept through the cabin again.

"Enough! Captain Moli and Captain Liu, please pay attention to your demeanor. We are standing on the same front now. Now is not the time to coax inwardly. Captain Liu, I can understand your concerns. However, is it because of our huge fleet that almost covers all the elite Western maritime fleets, dealing with an island less than three miles long and wide, two or three thousand Eastern pirates. Are you so unconfident?"

"Of course it's not without confidence, Colonel Alfonso, but it's too close to the coastline of the Qing Dynasty. I'm worried about the actions of the Qing Dynasty's navy or the Chinese pirates." Captain Liu was tall and burly, with a dignified appearance, but his eyes were just like thin slits, showing a cunning and cruel light. He was the traitor Liu Qiqiao who wanted to eat his flesh and sleep with his skin.

"You are too worried about it. A small island, does it take two or three days to capture our huge fleet? Even if the Qing navy and pirates come to help, do you think we will lose?" A pirate sitting in a chair tidying his wig opened his mouth, his voice was low and hoarse, but when he opened his mouth, it made the surroundings much quieter. This is James, the first mate of the white-headed man Owen, nicknamed "wig". It is said that his biggest hobby is to collect various wig covers, and his collection method is quite simple. He always cut off the other party's head directly with a big axe and then remove the wig from the blood stain.

His notorious reputation that made the sea merchants scared him, even above his immediate boss, Baitou Erwin, at least Baitou Erwin did not have the chilling perverted hobby of him.

"Of course not. I just think it's best to consider the best and worst plans first in everything." Liu Qiqiao shrugged his shoulders and sat down. Although he was a little worried, he also felt that he was too suspicious. He had a deep understanding of the combat power of these Western pirates and was definitely not inferior to his compatriots and colleagues.

If this almost gathered the pirate group from the South China Ocean to the Indian Ocean, even a small Chinese pirate nest could not be captured, no one else would believe in his eyes.

Colonel Alfonso cleared his throat, "Gentlemen, our fleet, together with more than 12,000 elite warriors, are nearly 500 cannons alone, which is a huge number. Our cannons alone can level a town, and our target is just a pirate's nest. Do you think that he can be stronger than a castle? It is more difficult to conquer than a fortress? Gentlemen, think about it... which side will the balance of victory lean towards?"

"Of course it's us!"

"us!"

"We!!!" Some of the pirates paused their feet, some hit the tabletop, some slapped the bulkhead, and shouted loudly with rhythm, as if their enemies had been trampled under their feet. They were so excited that they were like a group of thugs who had just escaped from prison, wearing animal skins, walking to the town hungry and tiredly, and saw a large door open and a money house carrying gold, silver and jewelry.

"It turns out that they are just a bunch of brainless idiots. You are excited, let's scatter your blood more at the guns of the Qing pirates..." Alfonso had an excited smile on his face, but his heart was filled with contempt and contempt for the pirates in front of him.

What Alfonso is worried about now is not the combat effectiveness of these pirates. Instead, he is worried about his opponent, the Eastern pirates who have plundered the Spanish royal family. If the opponent is too weak, it will not be able to achieve the goal of Colonel Alfonso weakening these Western pirates and clearing the colonial environment of the South China Sea.

"May God bless those pagans to withstand a day, at least half a day. If one-third of the scum here can be consumed, I am willing to donate a thousand gold coins to God in the Church of St. Paul after returning to Spain." Colonel Alfonso prayed very devoutly...

He went and didn't know that the pagan in his heart was thinking about how to swallow these Western pirates he called scum in one bite. Perhaps after hearing this news, he would just treat it as a joke that an ant wanted to knock down an elephant with a leg loop.

"Col. Our reconnaissance vessels have discovered the specific location of the Qing pirate nest." A Spanish officer rushed into the cabin and reported loudly. All the sounds suddenly became quiet.

"Did you find it?" Alfonso's voice couldn't help but get out of tune. He didn't expect that he would find the other party's nest so soon.

"Yes, because our reconnaissance ships discovered the island while cruising in the approximate location provided by the mercenary. However, the other side seemed to have signs of escape. Their clutches attacked our reconnaissance ships fiercely, covering their ships moving northward. We have lost two reconnaissance ships."

With a loud bang, a pirate leader, who was in principle, harshly slapped his wine glass on the table: "What are you waiting for? Mr. Colonel, it's time for us to show up."

Looking at the surging pirates, Alfonso kept cursing the Eastern pirates in his heart. He was so timid. It seemed that he was too arrogant to his opponent.

"We must stop the pirates of the East from fleeing to the north." Colonel Alfonso announced loudly. "Gentlemen, Captains, now return to your posts and tell everyone that the timid enemy is not to be afraid!"

"Col. Most of the pirate captains have left the ship. However, Liu Qiqiao, wig James and several powerful pirate leaders did not leave. They said that it was to allow Colonel, you can better command the overall situation, so they are willing to temporarily serve as your liaison officer." A Spanish officer reported to Colonel Alfonso, who was sitting on the backrest chair specially moved on the deck, siping black tea in small mouthfuls.

"My liaison officer? Hahaha, I have so many thoughts. Forget it, let them stay. How could I not know what these people are planning in their hearts? They must be planning now that even if other pirates can really capture this island, they can get a reward without any loss. Even if those pirates fail to attack, they will definitely lose their strength. Then they will appear again..." Alfonso's eyes swept off the pirate leaders standing on the side of the ship and chatting, their eyes full of contempt and contempt.

"Our allies are really despicable and shameless pirates. Their actions alone prove that they can never be together and deserve to be a group of mobs. Now, I have to worry about their fate first. Perhaps a failure is the best footnote to evaluate them for me."

Colonel Alfonso never thought that he was so crow-mouthed, and his ridicule soon became a reality.
