Chapter 131: It's not wrong to be wrong
"Hey, I said guys, what bad things did you do when you ran to the Kingdom of Yogyakarta? Those giants were going crazy."
The pirates who tied a cable for Luo Zhengdao and his party were excited to inquire about the first-hand news. Although there were no professional paparazzi in the New World, the people here were enthusiastic about gossip news!
Gao De looked at several of his companions who were bored and had no intention of speaking, and said:
"Hahaha, don't ask so much. In short, these big men will be very busy recently. The greens' arms deals can only be stopped first."
There is no doubt that the Yogyakarta Kingdom, which is rich in natural resources, is indeed very rich. In a long-term stable and peaceful atmosphere, the military level of the Yogyakarta Kingdom is also quite good. The key problem is that the maritime power of this country is extremely tragic. As the third level of the national and the main force of the standing army, the dwarves are prone to seasickness, and can still make do with anti-smuggling bandits in the near-shore. If the dwarves are called for a long voyage for years, it will be absolutely impossible. The fourth level human slaves are not qualified to be a soldier and are directly strike out. The tall giants are obsessed with religious rituals all day long. The backbone of this country is the Cyclops that are too big. Even if they can build a giant warship that is enough to accommodate Cyclops, it is too bulky. Once they go out to sea, they are living targets that come to their door.
Although its navy is an absolute product of tragedy, the Yogyakarta Kingdom still needs face in the end. The visiting pirate representatives made their capital a huge upside down. It was already slapped in the face and had no sincerity in negotiations. The Yogyakarta Kingdom, which had no intention of negotiating, simply turned its head and began to carry out comprehensive military cooperation with the second Goblin Empire.
The goblins hit it off, not only to relieve their worries for their allies, but also imply the meaning of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger. The goblin Invincible Armada began to carry out targeted large-scale clearance operations against pirate gangs active in the waters around the Yogyakarta Kingdom. It can be imagined that the pirates would not watch the goblins and giants join forces indifferently, and a big battle was already on the string.
Get used to the days of surviving the sea, the pirates mainly use light cruisers to chase prey and jump to the hand-to-hand tactics. Similar to the pirate group formed with large battleships like Luo Zhengdao and Gaod Nidham. In this era, it is not a regular style, but is similar to the regular naval fleet of a small country. Therefore, it is threatened by the goblin invincible fleet. The pirate gang's numerical advantage in warships is simply unavailable. Most pirate warships are light and fast cruisers, light cruisers and frigates. In the battle line cannons of the two armies, these small boats appear too fragile. Even if they are pulled to participate in hand-to-hand combat, it is difficult to compete with the goblin's sailing warships.
First, sailing warships are melee experts, and secondly, pirate ships mainly based on light warships will also be defeated. In the end, many pirate gangs with strong strength and reputation can only act as peripheral roles of guerrillas, and are responsible for harassing and slugging the goblin fleet. It is difficult to count on them to fight with real swords and guns on the front battlefield.
The brave one wins when you meet on a narrow road! At least it is true that the reason is that spirit cannot defeat matter after all, so killing people with eyes is always a myth. Unless you naturally have evil eyes, Cyclops, Sharingan, etc., don’t have such irrelevant dreams.
In the social environment of the new world with high magic attributes, the popularity of magic is far from the scattered streets that people in the old world had nothing to do, and it can even be said to be far from the level that magic civilization should have at its peak. If the prides of the times that had achieved great causes in the ancient, ancient and medieval times in the past were like magic card masters, dragon civilization and goblins, and were more or less extraordinary beings comparable to gods in some aspects, then in this new era with relatively devilish state, the new world is just a mediocre stage for ordinary people.
It goes without saying that the personal ability of the New World has retreated to the second line. The extreme example of how you can easily settle an army by your own strength or even destroy a powerful country can only search for traces in the faded history books on parchment paper and legendary stories chanted by bards. Perhaps they still exist in a certain corner, but they are also far from the sight of mortals.

"Didn't discuss with everyone and directly attack the Yogyakarta Kingdom. You made the matter messed up."
"Don't talk nonsense, it's already like this now. What should you do if you say you should do!"
When he returned to New Caledonia, he was accused by other pirate leaders of poor work. These negotiators actually made peaceful negotiations with the Yogyakarta Kingdom a virtue. God Nidham, who participated in it personally, was also to blame. He had no position to accuse others of their own and could only say this in a humiliation.
The issue of accountability is a small matter. The most urgent task is to determine what tactics to use to fight against the Invincible Fleet to ensure victory. This matter cannot be finalized through discussions of the Pirate Conference. Not to mention that the more people involved in the formulation of the plan, the greater the risk of intelligence leakage. There are never many people who want to exchange their peers' heads for a wealthy battle. The most serious thing is that the method of making decisions in the conference is too inefficient. Everyone comes out and says a word, and a day will pass. This efficiency can be done! At this moment, the twelve pirate leaders sitting in the room are the highest decision-making circle elected by the Pirate Conference. They will make a choice instead of the pirate coalition and complete the tactical arrangement of fighting against the Goblin Invincible Fleet.
By examining the appearance of these participants, you can understand why the pirates left such a bad impression on the outside world. Their personal image is indeed unpleasant!
One-eyed dragon, lame man, wooden legs and iron hook hands, probably besides the well-dressed Luo Zhengdao and Gaode, most of the remaining pirate leaders paid an extremely heavy price for their adventures across the seven seas.
Although high-level magic can regenerate broken limbs and even resurrect the dead, with the sensitive identity of the pirates, they will never dare to go to places like the temple for help. You should know that many temples themselves also work part-time law enforcement agencies, and paladins are double-flowered red sticks. If you want to fight seriously, it is not easy to mess with any temples. The pirate leader’s choice is to wait until he goes ashore to cleanse his identity and property in the future, and then consider the magic to repair his disability. Now, as the old saying goes, the injured beast is the most ferocious, and these guys can do any horrible things.
"Attacking important places that the enemy has to protect is the secret to winning."
Luo Zhengdao's speech shamelessly plagiarized the old world's military strategists' motto. Despite this, this argument was not enough to convince the pirate leaders present. One participant said quietly:
"Where is there any place that goblins must protect? Are their palaces? Hahahaha..."
Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao did not delve into the sarcastic meaning implicit in the other party's words, but instead acted like a reasoning, patiently explained his opinion to the participants, and said:
"The Goblins need to expand the navy to supply a large amount of arms in the Yogyakarta Kingdom. Now the giant's gun factory in the capital has been blown up. According to the latest information, the output here only accounts for one-quarter of the total output of the Yogyakarta military industry. Another arsenal located on the volcanic island is the most important place of origin. Everyone, do you think that if this place is threatened by pirate activities, will the Goblins ignore it?"
Everyone can talk about war on paper. Luo Zhengdao's words failed to satisfy the pirate leaders. One leader said in a low voice:
"Your Excellency Earl, you said it very easily. I have been to that place before, and it is very difficult to deal with the shore-based fortress. Don't say that we have to deal with so many Cyclops guards after we land. Are you kidding everyone?"
When he heard this, Luo Zhengdao, who had a bright smile as bright as the sun, shook his finger gently and said:
"I didn't say that I had to shoot the artillery factory. Isn't it a siege here to attract goblin reinforcements? They are the real targets... as long as... hehehehe, of course, you can't just use this method to limit the operation path of the Invincible Armada. I think those people outside are also very leisurely, so why don't you help everyone find some business to do it!"
"Do business? Hahahaha, what other business can we pirates have?"
It would be too nonsense to talk about ideals by pirates who are not like paupers. It would be better to tell them to make a fortune together, which is a fruitful way of communication.
If the map of the main continent is spread out on the table, observers will soon find that it is roughly like a poached egg, an oval with irregular edges. On the edge of the main continent, many natural deep water harbors have formed in uneven places. To be honest, compared to the arid inland areas where the climate is dry and vegetation is sparse and when it is extremely severe, the coast of the main continent is undoubtedly very rich. At first glance, the coastline of the main continent is not long. According to the data obtained by sending personnel to survey and survey in the period of the Light Dynasty, the actual circumference of the main continent is more than 62,000 miles, and the area is much larger than any continent on the earth.
No wonder the second empire of Goblin always feels too willing but not enough to inform this land. No matter how hard they try, they can never control the situation. The land on the main continent is indeed too vast. Needless to say, it is simply an unrealistic dream to block all sea and land passages on such a long coastline!
