By middle age, he may become a general, an admiral of the colony.
He hopes to go to East India.
Because it is close to China, one day, he may be able to use the identity of a crooked nut to open up the people's wisdom for his soul compatriots.
But, God made a big joke with him.
Eliya came back from the dock in Devonport this morning, and told him in a mocking tone of a trivial joke in the aristocratic circle.
The famous anti-British fighter, Mr. Patrick Henry, gave a speech at the just-concluded Virginia State Legislature. He said, "You give me freedom or death."
Lorraine had never heard of this Mr. Henry's name before, but this slogan unexpectedly awakened the memory of his previous life completely.
1775...
The speech of the Virginia State Assembly, the gunshots in the small town of Lexington, Washington will take over the flag of North American independence, the vigorous war of independence is about to begin, and a big era is about to begin...
After losing the fertile North American colonies, the contradictions in Europe will be completely intensified. The French Revolution is close at hand, and Napoleon will step out of the dilapidated Sicilian farms and start his kingly hegemony in the vast European continent.
Washington, Napoleon, Archduke Karl, Peter I, the British duo who ended Napoleon's great achievements, Nelson of the Navy and the Duke of Wellington...
It turns out that I am not ignorant of this era.
The trance Lorraine survived the day, fell into a real nightmare at night, relived the mudslide in a more tragic way, and could hardly recall everything around him for a while, it was like crossing again.
Why?
At this time, experiencing such a nightmare, what does God want to tell me?
He got out of bed blankly, walked barefoot to the full-length mirror, and saw a tall and thin white boy in the mirror.
Black curly hair, brown eyes, UU reading www. uukanshu.com his skin is pale, whiter than the average white person, his body is tall, his hands and feet are slender, strong and powerful.
He is a hybrid of Vikings and Anglo-Saxons. He has brains, strength, and skill. He has the calmness of two lives in his body, and there is a famous family behind him.
"The great era is coming. With these, are you willing to just be a submissive navy?"
He muttered to himself, and suddenly saw the reflection of the Golden Deer from the corner of the mirror.
Francis Drake's Golden Deer is sailing on the fireplace, head up, and sails, braving the wind and waves, moving forward.
Lorraine walked over and gently held it up.
"Golden Deer, a light three-masted galleon, 23 meters long, six meters wide, fully equipped with horizontal sails, bow and stern jibs, top sails and diagonal sails between the masts, and 18 cannons. It is The flagship of the legendary pirate, the legendary adventurer, the legendary businessman, and the legendary officer Francis Drake is known as the pirate king's car."
"And its owner is just a privateer..."
Lorraine's eyes are getting brighter and brighter.
Private merchants are the true darlings of the times, ever changing.
In the face of the enemy, they are ferocious pirates; in the face of friends, they are generous businessmen; in the face of mystery, they are fearless adventurers; in the battlefield, they are brave warriors.
They sailed in the vast Seven Seas, driving an excellent ship of the same type as the navy. On the one hand, they are the rulers of the backward countries, and on the other hand, they are the masters of the wealthy and enemy countries in the civilized world.
Freedom, autonomy, self-confidence, self-righteousness...
He wants to be such a person.
Because of the coming new era, it will be the last and the most magnificent...
The Great Sailing Era!
