"According to customary practice, the ransom for the naval prisoners of each country should be distributed equally to each prisoner by the price of the warship where the prisoners are located, and the senior crew members and officers shall be calculated separately."

"So, can an ordinary Nord sailor also be worth thirty or fifty Silver Snake Coins?"

Link's eyes lit up. This was more money than robbing Whale Bone Island.

More than 70 main warships plus all prisoners worth thousands of golden snake coins were directly profitable.

"Sir, I'm afraid the Nord Navy will not be willing to pay the ransom for these ordinary crew members."

Carl looked at Link helplessly, and his boss thought things too simple.

"Is this group of damn bureaucrats who are killed by heaven, the lives of ordinary crew sailors are not the lives of?"

Link couldn't help but accuse them of the unscrupulous Nord's Admiralty.

"Apart from those noble officers with family property and conditions, other ordinary people cannot afford this ransom.

Not only will we collect the ransom, but also the merchant ships that will pick up the prisoners back to Nord.

With the time and various materials spent on the way, they would have to pay at least one Golden Snake Coin for each of them to be slaughtered.

The Nord Navy lost such a fleet and the money to build a new fleet has not yet been settled, and it is even more impossible to spend on such a group of defeated prisoners."

Carl, who had been studying in Nord for more than ten years, could see clearly. He had long known what the official character of Nord was, and he did not think that they would redeem the prisoners out of humanitarianism.

"Then let's arrange for them to go to the surrounding islands to mine and cut trees. No one can eat and drink for free on Miluo Island, and even captives can't be taken!"

Link coldly arranged the destination of these prisoners.

The new recruits swept through the surrounding indigenous islands and found many mining-worthy minerals on these islands.

Link was worried about how to arrange enough people to go to these rainforest areas with harsh living environments and do heavy physical work like mining. These prisoners who no one wanted happened to hit the gun.

After listening to it, Carl wrote down and then began to talk about other situations.

"The Lake Brothers' Clippers fleet lost ten warships, nearly a hundred people lost their combat capabilities, all of which were seriously injured and sacrificed islander brothers. The remaining more than a thousand people were almost injured."

Link nodded, and the death rate of melee battles at sea was acceptable, and it was not serious minor injuries. With Link's bonus to the recovery speed of these pirate islanders, I believe he will be cured soon.

As for those seriously injured and sacrificed brothers, Link could only say that he could not help.

"This is the current situation of the Navy. Although the scale of the land battle on Miluo Island is much smaller than that of naval battles, the situation is more complicated."

Link stared at the words in the pre-case text of Carl's case, and he was waiting for Carl's explanation if he couldn't understand it.

"The biggest harvest comes from the war horses provided by nearly a thousand duke cavalrymen. Although many were slaughtered by totem warriors, there are still more than 500 remaining surviving..."

Carl paused:

"According to Orvador's statement, Miluo Island finally has the conditions to form a heavy knight regiment composed of pure heavy cavalry."

Link was also very happy after hearing this. Although according to Orvador's introduction, the regular Silver Mist Ranger Knight is a ranger equipped with crossbows, and his combat effectiveness is stronger than the reserve heavy cavalry without long-range capabilities.

But when countries in mainland China emphasize their own power, they always like to declare how many heavy cavalry units they have. It is conceivable that having a considerable number of heavy cavalry legions is a symbol of strength.

"There are more than 200 people in the cavalry unit led by the Duke who are capable of paying the ransom. This does not include the unlucky people who were killed by the totem warriors."

"It seems that the cavalry is really exclusive to the nobles."

The ransom of a cavalry is not only counted as himself, but also has to add war horses and all weapons and equipment. The most annoying thing is that even if he pays all the ransom, he can only redeem himself in most cases.

Of course, Link would do the same. On average, a self-redeemed cavalry can bring him two or three golden snake coins, which does not include those precious military war horses.

"As for those infantry legions under the Duke, they probably can't get the money except for their equipment."

Although it can be seen on the battlefield that they have good combat effectiveness and are even stronger than the new recruits on Miluo Island, Link would never be able to absorb them.

All the personnel related to the Duke's Corps were wary of him, not to mention that the two sides were still in a state of hostility.

"There is also the same rule. If no one redeems it, arrange to go to mining and cut trees. These veterans have great combat power. I hope they can exert their strength on knocking stones in the future."

Link continued to arrange it, and a few words determined the future of two or three thousand people.

Carl could imagine that these battlefield veterans would wait for them in the endless rainforest life for the rest of their lives.

"This time due to the emergency landing in time, except for some soldiers injured by the hawkish arrows, the Miluo Island Army Corps did not suffer any casualties.

It is a genius idea to equip the totem warriors with armor. It defeated the most difficult Duke Cavalry Legion without paying any price."

Carl compliments Link from the bottom of his heart, and the combat effectiveness of the totem warrior was really beyond everyone's expectations.

After a war, many dukes and cavalrymen found that they could do nothing to the totem warriors.

The huge size, the power that was so powerful that it was perverted, and the attacks on them by himself and his comrades were tickling, which made many cavalrymen fall into despair.

"As the biggest contributor to this land battle, we must give them enough rewards."

"My sir, I have already told Captain Parker that ordering a batch of fresh sea fish from the Pirate Fair in the nearby waters, hundreds of tons of goods, will definitely make them enjoy it at one time."

"Well.."

Link was stunned for a moment, and these totem warriors couldn't see them with common sense.

You can't arrange a group of indigenous women for them, right? That's really a sin.

After thinking about the huge size gap, Link felt that the totem warriors would probably be inseparable from their reproductive descendants for the rest of their lives.

"By the way, please note that Ashley should have sent someone here recently, which is related to the imperial edict. I will leave it to you when the time comes. Negotiation skills, etc. I don't need to say more, right?"

Before leaving, Link assigned Carl another task.

"Sir? Do we still want to join the empire?"

Carl looked at Link in surprise. He had learned about his previous experience at Raven Island from Tony and others.

I thought that after being looked down upon by the people of the empire, Link would never agree to be granted the imperial edict.

"The future of fence-bearing can never last. We have to choose a hard backstage with a small force like us."

Link murmured to himself, not knowing whether he was telling him or trying to persuade Carl.

"Anyway, if you talk about the conditions higher, you will support this big victory, it depends on your negotiation performance."

After saying that, he turned around and went out, and became a hand-off manager in a casual manner.

Leaving Carl alone, he was stunned.
