055.
That day, the Big Wave Pirates thought that with their own strength, they could swallow the player's ship. Unexpectedly, before their ship could reach the range of the cannonballs, the opponent's cannonballs hit their ship first.
At that moment, the Big Wave Pirates were stunned, because they were very confident in their latest cannonballs. They thought that the players were just an unknown fleet, and their weapons would definitely be no match for them. Who would have expected that the cannonballs in the player's hands would More powerful than theirs.
Moreover, the opponent's artillery shells are not pushed to the deck by the gunners like theirs, but are directly embedded in the hull. They cannot be seen when driving. Once the war starts, something like a cannon barrel will appear on the hull and fire out of the range. From afar, powerful artillery fire is coming.
That's not all, they also have very strange weapons that can accurately shoot the gunners of the Big Wave Pirates!
All of a sudden, the plan of the Big Wave Pirates was completely disrupted, and the pirate group's combat effectiveness and fighting determination were dampened. After many ships were blown up one after another, and many important cadres in the group were killed, the Big Wave Pirates The regiment discovered that the player's fleet was not easy to mess with and decided to make a strategic retreat.
However, their ships did not outperform the players' ships. Even though the player's ships were very huge and bulky, they didn't know how they were designed or made of, but they were faster than the ships they built at the largest and best shipyards in the country. Well, you can't run away at all.
What frightens them even more is that the range of their cannonballs and strange weapons (wooden warehouses) is so far that even the ships that were far away from the players before the war could not escape the range of those ships.
Previously, they relied on the "human sea tactic" to win, and specially asked other leaders to lead the fleet to prepare in the rear, ready to replenish the ships entering the battlefield. However, they were overtaken by the big bird that ran out of the opponent's deck, and the big bird dropped The artillery fire was also extinguished.
Under the crushing fighting power, a war ended faster than the Big Wave Pirates thought, and the winner was not the one he had promised before.
When all the players' artillery fire stopped, the pirate crew members who knelt down and surrendered took a while to realize that the battle was over. There were no longer those terrible big cannons and those that could not explode but could still kill. Small projectiles attacked from all directions and even from the sky.
The survivors, who had never experienced such a crushing battle since they became members of the Big Wave Pirates, were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground when they found out that they had barely survived.
It's not that these vicious crew members are cowardly, and it's not that they didn't come and go under artillery fire in previous battles, it's that the weapons and combat methods that the players took out were really beyond their expectations, and those who would throw cannon fire flew above their heads. The big bird subverted their imagination. When will humans be able to control such a big bird? Are these black-haired and black-eyed crew members really from a small place and not from the Kingdom of God?
The crew of the pirate group were frightened by the power beyond their imagination.
You know, even if Emperor Xilian brought cannonballs, by the Age of Discovery, the world had entered the era of thermal weapons, but the cannonballs still could not be used without restraint, nor were they without shortcomings. Even the Great Pirate Group, in In sea battles, hot weapons such as cannonballs are first used to surround the opponent, and then they jump onto the opponent's deck to fight with swords.
However, the fleet they faced this time had never experienced a sword fight. They didn't even get on the opponent's deck before they were bombarded by the opponent's thermal weapons. These thermal weapons were more lethal than them. I don't know how many, but several ships were destroyed at the same time without being slaughtered together, and the shells were fired one after another, unlike theirs, which took time to reload the shells.
There seemed to be endless rounds of shells, and I didn't see them using them sparingly.
Not to mention the strange big birds...
No matter how brave the members of the pirate group are, they have never seen this before. How can they be frightened?
Fortunately, after they surrendered, the player's fleet did not kill them all, but actually stopped. This made the crew members who saved their lives greatly relieved, and at the same time, their fear of the players inevitably reached its peak, because this At that time, their lives were no longer in their hands, but in the hands of these players. How would such a powerful fleet deal with those who surrendered?
If two pirate groups are fighting for territory, usually after one party is defeated, the leader and important cadres will die, but the crew members can still survive and be included in the new pirate group; if When robbing, it depends on the situation. If you are short of manpower, take them back. If you are short of food, don't kill them all. If you have other uses, you can also take them back to be slaves or something.
But this time it’s such a strange and powerful fleet. The crew of the Big Wave Pirates don’t know what the player’s fleet will do with them. Will they kill them?
In order to survive, these surviving crew members did not hesitate to sell their base, and begged the player to give them a way to survive. They did not dare to expect the player to take them in, but begged the player to keep them, even to work. , it’s better than losing your life.
Naturally, the players have not thought about killing these survivors who have surrendered, but they cannot let them go lightly.
This is the player's fleet's first war on this sea. If they let people go easily, wouldn't anyone be able to bully them in the future?
Therefore, when the survivors informed them that they still had a large island base and that there was a noble noble there, they decided to ask for war compensation.
However, before they even approached the island and shouted to the other party, the guards on the island opened fire on them. After the player paused for a moment and said that he wanted to discuss war compensation and ransom of prisoners, the other party still did not stop and even increased the intensity of the attack. In terms of firepower output, I don’t know if it’s because I’m too confident in my hot weapons, or if I simply don’t want players to land on the island.
So, the player took the opportunity to take over the island in one go.
After being taken away by the player, the noble realized that he was afraid, and said that he was the illegitimate son of the king of a certain kingdom, and asked the player to save his life. When he returns to the kingdom, he will give all the gold and silver treasures.
Moreover, among the nobles, he is the king's most favored illegitimate son, otherwise he would not be allowed to take charge of the affairs of the Big Wave Pirates, because the Big Wave Pirates rely on the kingdom, and the pirate group's income is that their kingdom is quite large. A gain.
Whether the words of this nobleman are true or not is still open to debate. However, the local Abt told the players that the geographical location of the kingdom where this nobleman is located is still very good. The port is very prosperous, and ships from all over the world dock here for supplies or for business. trade. Moreover, when players return, unless they take a long way, they will still pass through the sea areas where this country travels openly or secretly, and they may retaliate against the players.
Players are not very afraid of this, but they have the task of [lighting up the world map]. Since this country is somewhat famous, it must be within the scope of the task. It is impossible not to go up.
What's more, the players have been sailing for so long, and they really want to get to the shore and experience the customs and customs of the normal world.
Abt and the others dared to send them back to Garmai for ransom, so why would they dare to send a noble and a pirate group back?
Therefore, the player changed his itinerary slightly and went to the Kingdom of Mliswa first.
The Kingdom of Mliswa is not very large, but it is close to the sea and has a good geographical location. The port is indeed very prosperous, with a certain number of ships coming and going every day. People living here are used to coming from all over the world, with all kinds of fleet.
However, when the player's fleet appeared at the port of the Kingdom of Mliswa, it still caused a great shock. If nothing else, the huge ships alone can make people awe-inspiring.
You know, as a country that relies on ports, their country's shipbuilding industry is also very developed, and it is relatively well-known on this continent. However, this is the first time that I have seen such a huge ship, and the speed is still a little bit. Not too slow.
As soon as they appeared, they looked like "younger brothers" to the ships passing by.
Not to mention the player's black hair and eyes, strong body and height, and very unfamiliar flag that are very different from others.
As soon as such a fleet appeared, the person in charge of the port was lured out.
Although there are rules around the port and no trouble is allowed, it is good to have as many of these adventurers as possible on the sea. When such a large ship appears, there is always a fear that it will cause trouble. The person in charge of the port cannot guarantee that everyone who comes is a guest.
The person in charge was afraid of something happening and didn't want the player's fleet to dock, but when he saw the noble, he felt something was wrong.
Anyone who could be the person in charge of the port would not be a civilian, let alone the person in charge who happened to have met this nobleman at the banquet and knew his identity.
In the kingdom, it is not uncommon for a king to have an illegitimate child. This one happens to be quite favored. He was interested in going to sea a while ago. The person in charge personally gave it to him. Now he suddenly came back early and he is still a stranger. On the fleet, how could the person in charge not be surprised and unhappy?
Unfortunately, the person in charge's premonition came true. The players came this time with "bad intentions" and wanted war compensation and ransom.
When the news came back to the kingdom, the king immediately became furious, not only because his favorite son had been captured, but also because the Big Wave Pirates had been brought to ruin.
You must know which of these coastal countries does not secretly support one or two pirate groups. Those pirate groups who take the country's resources will also find profits for the country, especially after the maritime trade prospers, the profits of the pirate groups will Even a large amount was sent back to the kingdom. What was enriched was not the national treasury, but the private treasury of the king and some big nobles, which was equivalent to the private property they could freely dispose of.
In the king's mind, is there any difference between the fact that the Big Wave Pirates were taken away by a country and the hen that laid the golden eggs in his private treasury was killed?
It's natural to be angry, but after being angry, you have to think about how to treat the players.
After all, my family knows their own affairs. The strength of the Big Wave Pirates can be said to be the strongest in the kingdom at sea. Even the navy of the country may not be able to defeat it. After all, the navy operates in the waters near the kingdom. The battles are relatively safe, unlike the pirates who are really going through the wind and rain, robbing money at sea, they rely on their lives. After many actual battles, their combat effectiveness will naturally keep up.
And for the sake of his own private treasury, the king gave priority to supplying the latest weapons to the pirate group.
But just like that, the Big Wave Pirates were all put to the sword. What could this Chinese Alliance fleet that suddenly appeared be like to be trifled with?
Not to mention that people dare to come to the door blatantly. If you don’t have any strength, who will come here to seek death?
The king summoned other nobles to discuss what to do. It would be best if the hen that laid the golden eggs did not lose it!
