"Hmph, what's there to fear? Even if it's a first-rate ship, at most, they'll just cruise outside the harbor. We have fortifications after all," he said.

Another officer nodded:

"Exactly, if the commerce at the port stops, they too will suffer a great loss. I suspect it will all end with them paying compensation—just a bit more, at worst," he said.
