Chapter 129: The Birth of the Armadada

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Those majestic battleships with white magic cloth sails are undoubtedly the mainstream trend of the New World Navy, which does not mean that the more bizarre shape of the sailing oars is a big and inappropriate waste snack.

Whether it is a warship or a weapon, it is a tool no matter what, and since it is a tool, the value is reflected in whether it meets the actual needs of users, which is the most critical factor. Especially for those soldiers who are fighting on the front line, a technologically advanced and unreliable weapon, compared with a slightly backward but mature and reliable weapon with performance, it is obvious that the latter is the last guarantee worthy of their trust, and the weapon that may fail at a critical moment will kill themselves at any time, which is the most fatal essence of the soldiers who must gamble their lives to fight with the enemy.

The goblins simply overthrew the Human Bright Dynasty and became the sole ruler of the Great 6, and then they began to excavate and sort out the historical relics left by the goblins from the First Empire era, trying to restore the alchemy technology of the past.

Goblins are not a group of tease led by a group of tease, and the brave warriors are equipped with sophisticated weapons and bare hands, which is also fundamentally different. They can't say such irresponsible and coercive rhetoric as replacing weapons and equipment with martial arts, and even those goblin bosses want to regain the infinite glory of alchemy technology. However, a legendary-level strategic weapon like a goblin airship is still a long-term plan with no future in sight, so it can only be thrown into it. Despite all the troubles, the ambitious Second Goblin Empire has invested heavily in the restoration of Goblin Technology, even if the results are a distant event.

In contrast, such as the Goblin Rocket, which has a relatively low-end technical threshold, and is easy to learn, relying on the old-time technology that the Goblin Tribe has been passed down by word of mouth for thousands of years, it is basically a gadget used in the 6th War.

After finalizing the provisional plan for forming a large fleet with the bigwigs in the court, the Goblin Emperor swept away his previous sullen and gloomy expression, paced back and forth on the jade steps with great ambition, and said:

"The empire wants to assemble the most powerful fleet in the world, call it the Invincible Armada!"

The name Armada is absolutely unlucky for the traverser, just as since that famous shipwreck, no cruise ship has been willing to touch the name Titanic. Obviously, the goblins didn't know what happened to the Armada of the Old World, and the name Invincible sounded like a good sign, and the goblin emperor's Tiyì also won a round of applause.

After the decline of the First Goblin Empire, under the huge external pressure of survival, the goblins who huddled together for warmth began to believe in the omnipotence of the national system. Ensuring that individuals obey the interests of the collective and act in unison is an essential element at all times and in all places, and conversely, goblins have a strong dislike for mavericks. With the order of the Imperial Government, the plan to form the Armada has officially begun, and the resources of the entire Empire are tilted towards this grand plan, and even rivals like Modo Heishui and Zheti Baishan, who can stab each other without saying a word, have to obediently serve the Empire, and it is up to them to decide whether they want to or not.

The new fleet, which was formed by almost half of the active goblin navy, has reached an unprecedented level in terms of ship size and armament, even if the sail oars have a lot of unsatisfactory points, but in the face of absolute numerical superiority, the individual quality advantage of warships is already negligible, in the final analysis, the fleet is an organic whole rather than an organization that exists as an innumerable individual.

Soon, with the end of the first phase of the two-month Invincible Armada reorganization plan, this powerful goblin fleet began to show its edge, and in accordance with the original battle plan, gradually intensified the fight against piracy in the coastal areas of the main 6.

Given the disparity in strength between the two warring sides, most of the time, this sweeping operation can only be described as crushing to death. If the pirate gangs that wandered near the coast of the main big 6 saw the opportunity relatively quickly, they might still be able to escape under the guns of the Invincible Armada, and if they reacted half a beat slower, they would inevitably be crushed by the strong enemy forces to the end of the bones.

The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings! In the face of the brutal and efficient Second Goblin Empire, the practitioners of the piracy industry naturally realized what it meant to be under unprecedented pressure to survive. As a result, New Caledonia, which had been dormant for a long time, became lively again, and the second pirate convention in a row within a year was imminent.

The pirate group, which was originally like a plate of scattered sand, faced the goblin Armada with an iron fist, and the end of the collision between the two was undoubtedly the fiasco of the former, and the subsequent fiasco. Of course, this is not a matter of course, even if you do not consider the strong comprehensive national power of the Goblin Second Empire, just looking at the disparity between the pirates and the Armada on paper, it can be clearly seen that the two sides are not heavyweight fighters at all. Previously, the pirates were able to repeatedly gain the upper hand, and from time to time they took advantage of the main big 6, the reason was nothing more than bullying the goblin navy Su zhì was too low, and now the grand debut of the Armada has subverted the existing pattern earlier.

No one in this world is an idiot, and the best products that are not remembered to eat or not are not so easy to find, all the way down to being beaten by the goblin navy, and the pirates began to learn from the pain. Calming down from the initial ecstasy, they soon realized that the old way was no longer working, and that they had to find another way out, either they would have to prepare to change their careers, or they would be sent to the bottom of the sea by goblin shells.

The grim facts are as cold as ice in front of the pirates, and unless they run away and give up the idea of eating next to the main 6 in the future, they can only consider joining forces to take countermeasures. Even if it is difficult to implement such an unplanned proposal as merging a small group of pirates into a large-scale pirate group, at least they have to take care of each other, such as communicating information and helping to cover up, or they will really be driven out by the goblins. Needless to say, while the pirates were facing a cruel test of life and death, the second pirate conference in New Caledonia was much more harmonious than the tension that almost broke out in the previous one.

If the purpose of the last meeting was mostly prevention, this meeting is purely to solve the real survival problem that threatens the piracy industry, and if we do not try to solve the big problem of the Armada, not to mention that the pirates will have no food to eat, and if they don't even lose their lives.

Now that everyone knew that cooperation was necessary this time, there were not many things worth arguing about, and then, in several rounds of talks with each other, the pirates reached the following consensus. For example, pirate groups that are adjacent to or overlap in their areas of activity have a duty to assist each other, and when the goblin fleet appears, the pirate gang that appears first has to give information to the surrounding pirate groups, etc., but the most head-scratching problems are still inevitable.

In order to compete with the Second Goblin Empire for sea supremacy around the main 6, it is necessary to weaken the Invincible Armada, and to this end, Gauder Needham first mentioned cutting off the Goblin Empire's arms supply chain, specifically to prevent the main manufacturers of artillery from supplying their products to the Goblin Navy.

In the New World, certain countries have been engaged in the promising profession of arms dealers since ancient times, as Luo Zhengdao had heard earlier in the pirate bazaar, the Kingdom of Yogyakarta, the magical land where even fleet commanders would privately resell third-class battleships, is undoubtedly one of the main forces of arms dealers in the New World.

The Kingdom of Yogyakarta is a mysterious kingdom ruled by giants, with skilled Cyclops craftsmen and dwarven workers producing a large number of artillery pieces and a good price-performance ratio. There was a time when all countries and regions, with the exception of the Yaling Empire, which had always insisted on self-production and self-sale, used artillery made in the Yogyakarta Kingdom to equip their own navies and 6th armies, because these imported firearms were more guaranteed in terms of quality and cheaper than their own counterparts. This incredible situation continued until the largest tin mine in the Kingdom of Yogyakarta was depleted, which blocked the supply of raw materials for artillery, and the Kingdom of Yogyakarta lost its title as the largest arms manufacturer in the new world.

Due to the strict hierarchy that has been practiced for a long time, most humans do not have a good opinion of the Kingdom of Yogyakarta, and they must be treated as a fourth-class person when they go there, and how can unruly pirates stand this idleness, even if they are powerless to overturn the disgusting discriminatory policies, and they will never have the perverted penchant of being sent to the door to be humiliated.

Since the necessity of arms procurement is the second largest expense after food supplies, even if the pirates are uncomfortable, they have to continue to do business with the Kingdom of Yogyakarta, and the two sides maintain a superficial harmonious relationship.

Now, suddenly asking the Yogyakarta Kingdom to stop supplying weapons to the Second Goblin Empire, which is the overlord of the Big 6, is tantamount to a reckless move to ask the Yogyakarta Kingdom to choose sides, even if it is not as difficult as seeking skin with a tiger, the actual difficulty of operation is not much lower than putting a bell around the tiger's neck.

After a long day of deliberations at the Pirate Conference in New Caledonia, the pirate leader came to the conclusion that he wanted to elect a few bigwigs with status and status to represent the entire pirate industry to engage in serious negotiations with the Kingdom of Yogyakarta.

Needless to say, Gao De Needham and Luo Zhengdao, the Earl of Fulu, who have noble status, are among them, and their status is there, and they can't even think about it! Later, a negotiation team composed of five pirate leaders set off for a lobbying trip to the mysterious island nation, but none of these negotiators had any expectations for a hopeless negotiation, and they knew that the people in power of the pirate group knew that the trip was destined to be a futile trip, just to satisfy the strong cry of most of the pirates who were unwilling to gnaw hard bones, and made a hopeless attempt. Who said they really wanted to get this done? Hehehehe, the weather is really nice today!

"Hey, this place in the Kingdom of Yogyakarta is really big!"

Luo Zheng said that according to the standards of the traverser, it is quite a useless sigh, the skyscrapers of the old world are seen a lot, but this kind of cityscape full of classical charm is particularly shocking.

The white ashlar paved streets are wide and smooth, and the intricately carved stone pillars stand on both sides of the road, which at first glance look like street lamp poles. The feathered canopy of lush green street trees is lined up neatly, and many colorful birds jump and sing among the branches of these green trees, and the whole city has a bit of a sacred atmosphere of paradise on earth, but the premise of enjoying the beautiful local scenery is that tourists must not look down at their feet, and the yellow and white excrement is not known whether it is left by residents or livestock, in short, it is very bad for the good mood of sightseers.
