Chapter 354: Post-War Inventory

If the crocodile people want to get out of the current predicament, they need a change, a change that shakes the fundamentals.

The most ironic thing for these crocodile elders is that the advocates of this internal change of the crocodile people are none other than the new army that they were trained with the assistance of the Eternal Night Army Leader, and the leader is none other than Huai Ender, the biological son of Grand Elder Weber.

The son wants to overthrow Lao Tzu.

The new army, which has been cultivated by himself, is now targeting himself.

The discomfort and anger in the hearts of the elders of the crocodile tribe should not be mentioned.

At first, they thought it was the Eternal Night Army leader behind them.

After investigation, it was found that the behavior of these young people was completely spontaneous, and the reason for them to do it was not the pursuit of power, but out of love for the clan, and they really thought that the way they insisted on could save the crocodile people.

To be more precise, when the Council of Elders of the Crocodile Clan accepted the advice of the Eternal Night Army Leader and formed a new army, it had already jumped into the pit prepared by the Eternal Night Army Leader.

When the new ideas of the Eternal Night Commander are instilled with military training, it will naturally clash with the old ideas.

This conflict will take root with the situation facing the crocodile.

When the situation faced by the crocodile people is too bad to be repeated, it will also be the moment when they break out.

The Eternal Night Leader knew from the beginning that there would be such an outcome, and there was no need to fuel the flames at all.

The biggest headache for the Crocodile Council of Elders is that they can't deal with it in a simple and brutal way of suppression, after all, most of the people involved are the best of the crocodile generation, and many of them are even their own sons and nephews like Wynd.

The Council of Elders of the Crocodile Clan did not feel good about the new army formed with the Eternal Night Leader, and not only stuffed a large number of their own cronies into it, but also stuffed a large number of relatives in the clan into it.

At that time, I had the idea of killing two birds with one stone.

These people are the people who are most worthy of their trust, and they will not be so easily co-opted by the Eternal Night Army Leader to help them control the new army, and at the same time, they can also learn more things, and their skills will not be overwhelming.

Unexpectedly, in the end, they shot themselves in the foot, they learned too much from the Eternal Night Leader, and generated too many ideas, in their eyes, their group of old guys became the biggest obstacle to the progress of the crocodile people.

But these young people with hot heads don't think about it carefully.

If it weren't for these old guys in front, how could there be the current crocodiles, and how could they have the opportunity to jump here?

The most important thing is that they are now the same set of reform crocodile people that they learned from the Eternal Night Army, not to mention whether it is applicable or not.

When the reform is over, the crocodiles are still not crocodiles? or are they not theirs?

Young people who are bent on leading their people to a better life will naturally not consider such complex issues.

With the cooperation between the crocodiles and the Eternal Night Leader in full swing, many people have even come up with the idea that joining the Eternal Night Leader is also a good choice.

After all, the life of the Eternal Night Commander is there, and the various policies are relatively relaxed, not only has nothing to do with the tyranny of the Eternal Night, but the Eternal Night Commander even tries to help his people get rich.

This is something that even the elders of the crocodile clan can't do when they treat their own people.

People are always selfish, and the elders of the Crocodile Council of Elders are not exempt from vulgarity.

There are only a part of them that can be called qualified elders, and this kind of qualification level is usually very low, as long as they don't do anything wrong, they are all within the qualification line.

Those elders who don't do personnel are afraid that there are not many of them.

These people are also the most afraid of merging with the Eternal Night Lord.

Because once they merge, they will lose too much.

Originally, they thought that they had defeated the Third Fleet of the Cummins family, and they had already established the final victory, even if they couldn't get rid of the Eternal Night Commander immediately, at least the pressure was not so great.

Now there is another Klein tribe to stir up the situation, so that the elders of the Crocodile Elders' Council, from top to bottom, have itchy teeth of hatred, but there is nothing they can do but continue to act according to the leader of the Eternal Night.

Just when the Eternal Night Warlord reached an agreement with the crocodile higher-ups, those anomalous Crane people had already retreated back into their territory around the Dragonwreck Warship, and the Scout Ship of the Eternal Night Warlord stopped at the Danube River, not daring to go any further.

The territory of the Crane tribe seems to have no precautions, but if you dig your head into the water, you will find that countless soldiers of the Crane tribe are poking straight at the bottom of the water, one by one.

That kind of weird situation makes people shudder.

These guys, who have become inhuman and ghostly, are obviously staying there in such a way that ordinary people can't understand, and outsiders recklessly burrow into it, and they will only drag people and boats into the water.

Many things in the Klein tribe have broken common sense, and they really need to be treated with caution, even if it is an investigation, it needs a gradual process, and it can only be put on hold for the time being.

The first priority of the Eternal Night Leader and the Crocodile is to reorganize the army and digest the spoils of this time, which has been repeatedly emphasized at the previous temporary military meeting.

In just one week, the coalition led by the leader of the Eternal Night Army and supplemented by the crocodile people fought several fierce battles in a row.

First of all, there was intrigue on Brother Harbor, and at the beginning, there were geographical and long-range advantages, and when the Kingsley family used the battle artifact golden armor and elite troops at the bottom of the box, they had to fight hard.

And in order to make the play realistic.

The Eternal Night Leader has paid not only for his acting skills, but also for the blood of his soldiers.

One of the champion knights of the crocodile lies forever on this land.

The battle situation of the champion knight has not been heard of even in the Broken Blood Castle for several years.

When Akmesser fell into the trap of the Eternal Night Commander, the wave of backlash of the Eternal Night Commander was not a trap.

It's a real fight back.

If Akmesser had reacted a little sluggishly, and if the power of the Golden Armor had been a little weaker, the Kingsley family's Eastern Expeditionary Army would have been directly defeated by them, and there would have been no water battle at all.

If you can eat each other with the first plan, why bother to start the second plan with time and effort?

Seeing that the power of the golden armor was beyond imagination, and there was no way to defeat it, the Eternal Night Commander had to activate the second plan.

The whole process is extremely tight.

Within a day, they had led the Cummins into a trap and launched an all-out counterattack from the water.

This battle of defense and counterattack on the river.

The first half of the ambush is also said to be organized and disciplined.

When the fight is final, there is no way to care about these, which one is the least damaged, and which one is at the front.

Especially in the final pursuit, the Rock and Rock No. 2, which were chased all the way here, were covered with billowing smoke and suffered injuries in many places.

Not to mention those who have been forced to stop at Brother Port for repairs, which are in danger of sinking at any moment.

After the fierce battle until now, even the well-trained soldiers of the Eternal Night Army are a little unbearable, not to mention the crocodile people who have an unusually loose military structure, and now many of them are wandering blindly on the Danube River, unable to find either the enemy or their own people.

They need to be brought back little by little.

And then there's the digestion of the loot.

The biggest trophy of this war was, of course, the ships of the Cummins family.

The warships of the Cummins family, from the appearance of the warships, seem to be similar, in fact, they are also classified.

There are three levels: Breaking Waves, Hurricanes and Dragons.

It is said that the Cummins family has built a dreadnought-class giant battleship.

I don't know if these giants are not suitable for sailing into the Danube? Or if the Third Fleet is not equipped with them, and they were not seen in this water battle.

The Third Fleet that fought with the Eternal Night Army was mainly based on wave-breaking and hurricane warships, as for the dragon wreck battleships, needless to say, there were seven ships in the entire Cummins family, all of which were famous and famous, if the Cummins family knew that the Third Fleet had folded their flagship into it, they didn't know how to go crazy.

The Wave Breaker and Hurricane are easily recognizable, one is a two-masted and the other is a three-masted.

At present, the waters around the mainland of Ashane are still dominated by brigs.

In the Third Fleet of the Cummins family, the ratio of the Wave Breaker class to the Hurricane class reached four to one, and the entire fleet consisted of one Dragonwreck battleship, four Hurricane warships, and thirteen Wave Breaking warships.

After the war, the Third Fleet was blown up by a suicide assault ship led by the Eternal Night Army.

Then the two ships were blown up by the cloud catapults on the Reaper's waterway under the dual effect of repeated bombardment and mines.

In the ensuing melee, four more ships were rammed and sunk.

Only at the last moment, they abandoned the dragon wreck battleship and fled two.

Except for the flagship dragon wreck battleship, which was cut off by the Crane tribe and dragged into its territory, the remaining eight ships were captured by the Eternal Night Army using one-on-one ship staring tactics and a large number of elite infantry of the legion carried on the ship.

Unfortunately, of the eight battleships, only one is Hurricane-class, and the rest are all Wavebreaker-class.

Between the two masts and the three masts, there is only one mast difference, and the size difference is quite huge.

Speaking of sailboats, we have to talk about the current nautical conditions of the Ashane continent.

Due to its unique geography, the navigation conditions on the west coast of the continent of Ashane are significantly better than those on the east and south coasts.

For the past three hundred years, the entire east coast has been dominated by the flooded Danube, and there is no opportunity to develop navigation at all.

The south coast is bordered by the Huayu Plateau, there is no serious coast at all, almost from the sea directly to the plateau, there are only scattered island-like peninsulas and scattered islands, the geography is limited to death, coupled with the lack of necessary solid wood to enter the age of navigation, even if they are developing, they can only passively wait for the invasion of other places, so as to drive development.

The west coast of Ashan, on the other hand, is characterized by the five or six hundred nautical miles of Zambia's inland sea, the twin peninsulas jutting out like tentacles into the west coast, and a relatively large number of islands along the coast.

All of them have resulted in a relatively developed shipbuilding and navigation industry on the west coast.

However, the leading position is still occupied by the Cummins family, which is known for its pirate family, and the wealthy Witch Society.

In order to compete for sea supremacy on the west coast, the two sides have been entangled for nearly 100 years.

In recent decades, the water power of the Western Odin Empire has also shown signs of rising, especially the newly ascended Black Tiger Ulan Bari, which is an ambitious lord who wants to compete everywhere and want to do his best everywhere, including on the sea.

The situation of being harassed back and forth by pirates on the shores of the Miracle Peninsula was unbearable for him.

Over the years, through self-research and development, black market trading, etc., it has indeed possessed a certain amount of maritime power.

But that's about it.

The black market trade in sea-going ships is largely controlled by the Cummins family and the Witches' Secret Society.

They are not fools, and they will definitely not sell their brand-new ships at the bottom of the box, at most they will deal with obsolete and soon-to-be-eliminated ships in this way.

Self-research is not a simple sentence, even a new force with rapid development momentum like the Eternal Night Military Leader has to honestly dig into the corners of the Cummins family and the witches' secret meeting before building the shelves of their own shipyard.

After nearly five or six years of preparation, only flat-bottomed inland ships were built, and they did not dare to touch those big ships.

Although inland ships and sea ships are both ships, they are definitely two standards.

If you use the standard of inland ships to build a large sea ship, you will not be able to run for a few days when you go to sea, and you will be torn apart by the waves and hurricanes, and it will not be possible to capsize directly.

Not to mention that the talent reserve of the Theodin Empire is really not in place, and the effect of self-research and development is not ideal.

Now even the Miracle Inland Sea, the gateway to the Miracle Peninsula, can't be completely defended, let alone pushed out in reverse, and has a secret meeting with the Cummins family and witches on the sea for a long time.

In a short period of time, the pattern of the two giants of the Cummins family and the witch secret society competing for hegemony on the West Coast will not change much, even if the Third Fleet of the Cummins family has just suffered a big loss on the West Coast.

It's not just a fleet like Cummins that there are six of them, do you think these eighteen ships are the full strength of the Third Fleet?

If you think so, then it is too much to underestimate the Cummins family, the eighth duke family that has lost its territory for a hundred years and can still stand.

One of their fleets, the main warships above the Wave Breaking Level, was no less than fifty, not to mention those ancillary warships such as sloops and armed merchant ships, all of which were in the hundreds.

Just look at the structure model of the Eternal Night Military Leader, there are five ships, and there are more than two hundred assault warships of various types, not to mention those big-bellied merchant ships and small fishing boats, I am afraid that they have already exceeded a thousand.

The reason why the Third Fleet that entered the Danube River was only eighteen ships was that in addition to despising the Eternal Night Commanders and the Crocodiles, they did not have the strength to do their best, and because some warships that were too large were difficult to turn in the narrow waters, and were not suitable for entering the narrow waters to fight, they either did not come with them, or they were anchored at the mouth of the Danube River.

There are also nuances in the interior of the Wavebreaker and Hurricane class sea vessels, and the weight class is also quite different.

Whether it is a brig or a three-masted schooner, there will be a schooner and a schooner.

Schooners are generally one larger model than schooners.

Take the brig as an example, the size of the brig is generally between 15 meters and 25 meters, while the minimum of a fully equipped brig is 20 meters, and the maximum can reach more than 50 meters.

Needless to say, a three-masted galleon, even a schooner, it has to start at thirty meters, and a three-masted schooner has to start at fifty meters.

Schooners and sailboats have their own advantages and disadvantages.

The crosssail area is large, the thrust is large and the speed is fast when the downwind and the side backwind, and the windward driving ability is weak, and it can only be achieved at sixty or seventy degrees to the wind, which is basically equal to no windward ability.
