"Bang-"

As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and the elevated bronze incense burner, which is the furnishings of the palace, was innocently killed and kicked to the ground by the goblin emperor, but fortunately there was no burning spice in it, and it collided with the dark golden floor tiles and made a loud wail. Then, the angry goblin emperor pointed to the goblin bosses under the jade stairs and rebuked him sharply:

"The military department raised a bunch of fools, our Armada was ruined, and the Grand Fleet was lost to pirates. That lowly hairless monkey, Will Needham, has declared himself regent of the Empire of Light, and you guys are arguing over whether to blockade for a long time or a focused attack, are you playing a farce? ”

Hearing this, a goblin boss who was so old that his white eyebrows covered his eyes stood up tremblingly and said:

"Your Majesty, the environment of Wake Reef is treacherous, there is a lack of food and drinking water to supply on the spot, and the defense is very strong, which cannot be overcome by a short assault. Even if the navy can defeat the pirate's ironclad ships, it will be very difficult to maintain logistical supplies to land on the island for a long time. ”

A big man who sang the opposite tone spoke out against the opposing faction and said:

"We can use space equipment, concentrate the space equipment of the empire to transport a large number of supplies to Wake Reef, build forts and advance inland, this is the closest tactic to success."

Both opinions sound somewhat reasonable, the Goblin Emperor is more inclined to an offensive strategy, otherwise it would not be furious because of the delay in making decisions. At this time, the Goblin Emperor turned to the chief of the military department and said in a noncommittal tone:

"Your Excellency, do you think you can do it?"

It is said that the chief of the military department is the one who is in the most bad situation, and other bigwigs can criticize it with their mouths, and the military department, which bears direct leadership responsibility, has to be responsible for the defeat, and many defeats have shaken the absolute prestige it established during the elimination of the Bright Dynasty, and if you want to start a military adventure, it is difficult to guarantee whether the result will be to dig a pit and bury yourself in it. Immediately, the chief of the military department wiped his sweat and said:

"Well, it's going to take a lot of conditions."

didn't say anything to death, the small action of the military chief to leave room for himself, the goblin emperor didn't care too much, this is a normal self-preservation behavior, if he doesn't do this, the goblin emperor will feel incredible. A guy who doesn't even understand self-protection can't survive in the political circle, and the more he reaches the top, the clearer he becomes, and right and wrong, good and evil begin to blur when they reach a certain position. For example, no matter what kind of crime is used to motivate other faction members, whether it is normal accountability or legal punishment, in the end it will turn into a fierce factional struggle to the death, and the overwhelmed superiors will eventually have to suppress the contradictions in a way that is diminishing.

"Very well, the military department will make a detailed list, and I will urge the Senate to approve your plan as much as possible."

The chief of the military department, who was driven to the shelves, had no choice but to bow his head and reply:

"Yes, His Majesty the Emperor."

After a pause, the chief of the military department continued:

"Your Majesty has an immature idea, and I hope Your Majesty can adopt it."

Hearing this, the Goblin Emperor couldn't help but feel a little curious, nodded and said:

"If you think it's good for the Empire, then tell it."

The chief of the military department straightened his body, ignored the questioning glances of the surrounding goblin bosses, and said to himself:

"Here's my plan......"

To talk about the actual losses caused by Will Needham, an unbeatable little powerhouse, the Second Goblin Empire hates his ignorance and overactive ability to cause trouble, because the Goblin Fleet has been repeatedly hit hard, and it is impossible to threaten Wake Reef in a short period of time, everyone can only stare dryly, maintaining a strange state of confrontation without a fight or discord. In that case, why did Will Needham, the ball, openly claim to be the regent of the human race, isn't this an obvious attempt to give goblins eye medicine in public? As long as there is one day left to settle Will Needham, the Second Goblin Empire will continue to lose face in front of the nations of the world.

Didn't the goblins announce the end of humanity's dynasty of light? Excuse me, what about the guy who put up the flag at Wake Reef and sang against you? The ghosts of the human dynasties?

Extreme explosive troops to speed up a wave of flow has always been a goblin's specialty, relying on this trick on land to succeed repeatedly, the problem is that at sea, a generation of overlords has become a soft-footed shrimp, which is also an indisputable fact.

The bitter lessons of repeated defeats have proved one thing: without the dual advantages of quality and quantity, it is impossible to talk about the complete eradication of Wake Reef, the last bastion of human exiles, so it is a good policy to temporarily suspend the strategic offensive and accumulate strength.

Although many human exiled nobles, including Gauder Needham, have also established various armed forces overseas, and they have a tendency to blossom everywhere, especially the elven federation that relies on deep pockets behind it, the overall strength of the Gauder fleet is not inferior to the privateer fleet formed with ironclad ships as the core on Wake Reef. However, they have always lacked the will to fight to the end, and the determination to kill you if they can't kill you. Will Needham, the self-proclaimed regent of His Royal Highness, is comparable to a professional provocateur who jumps and scolds in front of the Second Goblin Empire, and puts on a mocking face of "If you have the ability, you will beat me", which can really be said to disgust the goblins, doubling the intolerable thing that the goblins can't tolerate is that they really can't do anything about this guy

"These greenskins are so insidious!"

"Your Highness, what should we do?"

In the smoky conference room where incense was lit and incense was lit, the eyes of the leaders of Wake Reef were focused on Luo Zhengdao, who could only rely on the regent to decide how to get out of the predicament.

Hurt people with this! Recently, Wake Reef has been constantly harassed by a small fleet of goblins, and normal business activities have been greatly reduced, and even fishing boats have to be careful when they go out to fish, otherwise they will lose their people. Although the pirates immediately responded violently, pulling the fleet, including the ironclads, out and sweeping it several times, causing the goblins to suffer considerable losses, the problem is that they never stopped this dogskin plaster attack. The goblins were killed no less than a hundred warships of the size of brigs and above, but they never relaxed the noose for a moment, and the blockade of Wake Reef could not be broken, the more Luo Zhengdao tasted it, the more he felt that this matter was not pure, should the goblins want to give him a continuous bloodletting, right?

Facing the inquiries of his subordinates, Luo Zhengdao nodded calmly and said:

"We need more thugs."

Brando Scarlet looked at the regent with a stunned expression and asked rhetorically:

"Uh, not a soldier?"

Shaking his fingers to express his dissatisfaction, Luo Zhengdao, who had a solemn and solemn face, said:

"Now that an average of every ten civilians have to support one soldier, and one civilian for a hundred civilians, and continue to increase the number of soldiers, do you want those civilians to rise up and rebel?"

"Your Highness, I understand what you mean, but what can I do if I don't increase my troops?"

Luo Zhengdao glanced at these subordinates with different expressions and said:

"The threat of goblins is great, we urgently need combat power, but it doesn't have to be ours, as long as it can fight for us."

Hearing this, Faure Chopin slapped the table, and he got up excitedly and said:

"Do you mean with the help of a coalition of pirates?"

Zola Hegel, who had been silent, glanced at the change in Luo Zhengdao's face and interjected:

"Those guys won't go out if they don't have any benefits, and you can't see the glitter of gold coins, so don't expect them to actively participate."

Kofi Ingres, who was not very familiar with military affairs, knew very well how terrible it was to be suffocated by the slow strangulation of the goblin fleet, and he eagerly reminded:

"Your Highness, what to do, please tell me!"

Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao stopped selling Guanzi, and said straightforwardly:

"We need insurance companies and joint-stock companies."

Luo Zhengdao is very good at borrowing the vocabulary of the lingua franca to spell out new words, and when he heard such a mixed and matched words, all the participants were dumbfounded, and Faul Chopin muttered:

“…… Uh, Your Highness, what are you talking about? ”

Luo Zhengdao, who was smiling, signaled everyone not to worry, and explained slowly:

"Piracy is also very risky, not everyone can guarantee that they will get enough gold to return home, and not everyone who expects to make a profit wants to become a pirate."

Zola Hegel tilted his head in dissatisfaction and said:

"Everyone knows these things, what exactly do you say?"

"Alright! To put it simply, I have a way to reduce the risk of engaging in piracy and increase their motivation to attack. ”

Vina Dubov, who remained silent throughout, interjected:

"Is it by that insurance company and the joint-stock system?"

Luo Zhengdao nodded, signaled, and the attendant next to him stepped forward with a stack of texts, and followed him to say to the half-elf beauty sitting beside him:

"Vina, hand out my plan."

The East India Company, which was formed by the countries of the European continent, is undoubtedly notorious in the modern history of the Old World, and of course, it must be noted here that the reputation of the East India Company in those colonized countries and regions is indeed insignificant, but in the mother countries to which the East India Company belongs, no one will regard it as a flood beast. Even if these East India Companies later withdrew from the stage of history, it was because these companies prevented the overlords behind the scenes from grabbing the interests of the colonies better, faster, and more, and absolutely had nothing to do with morality, justice, human rights, and universal values.

A butcher with blood on his hands put down his knife, and before he had time to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, the victim's wailing and whimpering vaguely echoed in his ears, and he did not even confess to his own God, and immediately regarded himself as a civilized preacher, standing on the moral high ground to condemn others, which is really impossible to accurately describe this unreasonable thickness of the skin.

At its peak, the John Bull East India Company once had its own independent administration, judicial system and army, managing millions of square kilometers of colonies and hundreds of millions of civilians.

These successful examples of the European East India Company in Africa and Asia undoubtedly prove how the advantages of the right relations of production and the productive forces can crush the backward side, and how corporations and joint-stock systems can concentrate their scattered and limited financial resources and give rise to a terror force capable of pulling the whole course of world history.
