There were a few rudimentary buildings on the pier, all of which had been destroyed by the naval bombardment, and although it had been overnight, the scattered ruins and the entire canopy of the trees, and only half of the trunks still emitting green smoke were still a testament to the intensity of yesterday's shelling.
Bypassing the crater on the ground with a diameter of more than two meters and a depth of one meter, there were still dark red blood stains left next to the crater, but there was no corpse in the entire dock, presumably the mercenaries had already cleaned up the corpse, which made Quentin Nick feel a little more relaxed.
"We killed at least 800 pirates during the entire attack, and in order not to cause the plague, the corpses have been buried with special treatment, and if we need to verify it, we can dig up the corpses again" Mike Zhang was shocked, and his words made Quentin Nick's face turn pale with fright.
"It's fine not to be like this, I trust you."
Quentin Nick chooses to trust Mike Chang.
Although it is December, the average daily temperature in the Bahamas is still 24 or 5 degrees, and if you let the corpses run wild in such weather, it may really cause a plague.
Well, although it was only "maybe", Quentin Nick didn't want to test how likely this was, and when he heard the word "plague", Quentin Nick actually wanted to leave, and he didn't want to stay for a minute longer.
In the 21st century, people could not understand the power of the word "plague" in the 19th century, when the "Black Death" that raged in the Middle Ages and killed 75 million people worldwide, when a third of all people in Europe died from the Black Death, and in the hundreds of years that followed, the word "plague" became taboo for everyone.
Compared with the Middle Ages, although the level of medicine in the nineteenth century has improved, the progress is still limited, and there is still no good way to deal with diseases, let alone plagues, even simple headaches and fevers may cause large-scale deaths.
This is not an exaggeration, as widespread influenza caused significant casualties until the early 20th century, as evidenced by the famous "Spanish flu".
So for Quentinnick, in the case of a possible "plague", it didn't matter how many pirates the Bahamian company killed, staying away from the threat of the plague was the most important thing, so Quentin Nick was very happy to determine the results of the battle and ended his inspection of West Caicos Island.
"Very well, you've completed the commission, and now Great Inagua's is yours."
Before embarking on the ship, Quentin Nick handed over ownership of Great Inagua.
"Thank you, it's an honor to serve you, if there are similar needs in the future, please keep in mind the slogan of our Bahamas company, all customer requirements are the unstoppable mission of our Bahamas company."
Mike Zhang was very relieved, he had been busy for a day and a night, and now it was finally harvest time.
"Goodbye then" Quentin Nick didn't want to stay for a minute, and made up his mind not to come to West Caicos again, lest he get bad luck.
"Mike, Mike, we're in trouble" Chris Bart, who had disappeared for a while, suddenly walked briskly.
"What's wrong" Mike looked puzzled, and Quentin Nick, who was about to get on the boat, also stopped.
"There was a pirate ship that escaped, we didn't find it last night, this morning we found them fleeing into Haitian waters, our patrol boat was going to pursue, but it was blocked by the Haitian Navy, we have reliable intelligence, our target No. 2 is on the pirate ship that escaped into Haiti, if we can't kill him, then he will definitely come back."
Chris Barter frowned, it was a bit unexpected that what was supposed to be just to exterminate a group of pirates now involved a sovereign state.
"Kill him, no matter where he goes" Before McZhang could react, Quentin Nick flew into a rage.
Mike Zhang's second target, that is, the pirate's second boss is called Randall, this person is cunning as a fox, cruel and easy to kill, it is said that the favorite food is the tongue of a virgin, about Randall, Mike Zhang They only have such a little information, and there is no guarantee of authenticity, it is likely that even the name "Randall" is fake.
"But now the Haitians" Mike Chang also wants to kill Randall, but has to consider the Haitian threat.
"Then even the Haitians will be killed, and the land in Haiti will be polluted, and everyone there will go to hell."
Quentin Nick has a deep hatred for Haitians.
Oh oh oh, I almost forgot that Quentin Nick is British, and it seems that there is no reason to hate the slaughter of French Haitians, but white people always take the same position when facing non-whites, so Quentinnick's hatred for Haitians is understandable.
"Then, we are going to attack the Haitian Navy" McZhang was still a little undecided, after all, it was facing a country, and McZhang's caution was understandable.
"They have a shitty navy, and I'm willing to bet that Haiti's navy might just be fishermen with sampans, but now that you're armed with destroyers, you can't beat those fishermen," Quentin Nick was unhappy with McZhang's hesitation.
"Yes, they say they are navy, but they do only fly sampans."
Chris Bart confirmed Quentin Nick's words.
"Haiti is, after all, an independent country, and if we attack their navy, it will be tantamount to provoking war."
McChang is also not afraid of the Haitian Navy, but of the notoriety of starting a war for no reason.
"So what, this country shouldn't exist at all, you know that the white people of Haiti have been massacred by blacks, this is a blasphemy against God, a humiliation to the civilized world, so even if we throw all Haitians into the sea, we have a righteous reason, so what are you still hesitating about" Quentin Nick is a politician, and he is the best at this set.
Well, since the Age of Discovery, white people have expanded and colonized the world in the name of "justice", many colonizers have conquered one civilization after another with the Bible in one hand and muskets in the other, and returned to the West with bloody spoils of war to enrich the "civilized world" in their mouths, so "procedural justice" is handy for all white people, and what they are best at is doing things in the right name, and they are complacent about it.
"Then do it, kill them, and you must find out Randall for the Fa."
Mike Chang finally made up his mind.
Just as McZhang was making up his mind, off Cap-Haïtien, 160 kilometres from West Caicos Island, an armed speedboat of a Bahamian company was confronting two armed gunboats of Haitian origin.
The so-called "armed gunboat" is to install offensive weapons on the basis of merchant ships, so that they have a certain degree of aggressiveness, although armed gunboats have a certain offensive power, but after all, they are still civilian ships in nature, so the attack capability is very weak, and there is no comparison with real warships.
Of course, even the armed gunboats, because of different ages, there are differences in the degree of advancement, for example, the armed gunboats of the Bahamian company are equipped with 75 mm naval guns produced by the New Haven Artillery Company, which can fire armor-piercing and incendiary shells, and is much more powerful than infantry guns.
The guns on Haiti's armed gunboats are much worse, although the caliber is about the same size, but the guns installed on Haitian gunboats cannot even use one-piece shells, compared with the 75 mm naval guns, the guns on Haitian gunboats are simply products of the last century.
Cap-Haïtien is the Cap-de-France where 2,000 French people were slaughtered, and the Haitians who succeeded in coming to power through riots changed the name of Cap-de-France to Cap-Haïtien in order to dilute that history, or to erase the colonial traces of the French, giving the city a new meaning.
It should be noted here that since the black overthrow of the white rule, Haiti has been in turmoil, from 1804 to 1876, Haiti has experienced more than ten coups d'état, as many as six presidents have been killed in the coup, the country has also experienced the process from the republic to the kingdom, and then to the republic, Haiti's current president, Pierre Dioma, Beauvaron, was born in the military, after the May 1875 riots, Pierre went into exile in Kingston, Jamaica, and returned a few weeks later, Pierre was appointed commander of the army by President Michel Dominger, and the following year, Pierre replaced Michel Domingue as president of the provisional government.
From that perspective, it is also time to put an end to the turmoil in Haiti.
"What is the origin of this company of the Bahamas Company, is it a company established by the Bahamian government?"
looked at the armed gunboats of the Bahamian Company cruising a nautical mile away, and the captain of the Haiti, Casparanse, was confused.

Casparanse is a mixed-race, although at the beginning of the Haitian black riots, the mixed-race people were slaughtered like the French, but then the blacks found that without the help of whites and mixed-race people, it is impossible to make the Haitian country operate normally, so after the initial chaos, the state power in Haiti is still in the hands of whites and mixed-race, but the blacks who have tasted the pleasure of not working hard in the riots have obviously tasted the sweetness, so after a few years, a new wealth transfer will occur in Haiti, And a large amount of social wealth has also evaporated out of thin air in the transfer after transfer.
"No, it's a commercial company, and I heard that it has a strong military background."
First mate Peter Tony promptly cleared up the captain's doubts.
The world is big or small, it's all in the Caribbean, and the events of the Bahamas will spread to Haiti in a very short period of time, and Peter Tony happens to pay more attention to this aspect.
The "East India Company" Caspalindsey was shocked and unprovoked to make up a notorious business empire.
The East India Company is definitely a miracle in the history of commerce, since the history of the world, there is probably only such a commercial company that has crossed the border so successfully, so that in the hearts of many people, the East India Company has become an unsurpassed miracle, many people know that it is only a part of the business of the East India Company, in this era of lack of information, except for the shareholders of the East India Company, no one can tell the specific business of the East India Company.
"No, it's just a newly listed company, not comparable to the East India Company, which is mainly engaged in fulfilling customer commissions, to be specific, probably similar to the Panamanian company."
Peter Tony does know more about the Bahamian company, and Li Mu has long said that as long as the Panama company is successful, then it will definitely attract the attention of people with a heart.
"That's pretty bad, too."
Casparansay had also heard of Panamanian companies, thanks to the position of the Republic of Gran Colombia in the Caribbean, which was able to beat the Republic of Gran Colombia, and the strength of the Panamanian companies was evident.
"It's just that the type of business is almost the same, and there is still a gap in strength."
Peter Tony told the truth, the enterprise of thousands of people and the enterprise of nearly 10,000 people are not a heavyweight at all, and the enterprise of 1,000 people may be able to become the head snake, but the enterprise of nearly 10,000 people must be a dragon across the river.
"Captain, the Harper has once again sent a flag asking to enter Haitian waters and track down the pirates."
The boatswain reports to Caspalind.
"Tell them that there are absolutely no pirates entering Haitian waters, and let them leave immediately, or I'm welcome."
Although Caspalinde is apprehensive in his heart, there is still a bottom line to insist on.
The ships of the Bahamian company are all named after the islands of the Bahamas, such as the "Harper" opposite the "Haiti", which comes from Harper Island in the Bailey Islands.
"Captain, this matter is not so simple, we all know that no ship has entered Haitian waters, so the Harper on the other side has repeatedly insisted, their motives are very suspicious."
Peter Tony had a vague feeling in his heart that something was wrong, but he couldn't be sure.
"What motive can there be: if they think we are easy to bully in Haiti, then they are wrong."
Caspalindsey's words are true, although Haiti's national strength is weak, compared with the Bahamas, which has a population of only a few hundred thousand, Haiti can still form an overwhelming advantage.
It is very strange that when the black Haitians launched the riot, the total population of Haiti was only more than 600,000, and now more than half a century has passed, and it is still in turmoil for the first time, and it is still in war, but the population of Haiti has not decreased but increased, and now the total population has exceeded one million, and more than half of the country's population is young people, which can be called a miracle in human history.
So family planning is very important, but for the Chinese, there is no need, maybe you can choose to implement family planning in Africa, after all, Africa is barren and simply cannot afford to feed so many people, and the world has to provide assistance to Africa every year, so why bother "Captain, the Harper has moved," the chief engineer warned in a loud voice.
Through the telescope, Caspalindsay clearly saw that the Harper was adjusting its direction, and although it was not fast, it was very resolute towards the Haiti.
"Fire" Casparinde was going to exercise his obligations, but the thought of the Panamanian company that defeated the Republic of Gran Colombia made his voice tremble a little: "Warning shot":
