Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"Bastard, why does that damn hairless monkey have reinforcements, aren't you a little guarded?"
Seeing this scene, Zheti Baishan was so angry that he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and he couldn't help but shout angrily at the incompetence of his subordinates. For the commander's violent state, his subordinates also felt that they were quite aggrieved, but now was not the right time to justify the reason, a fleet staff officer cautiously approached, reminded:
"Your Excellency, Commander, we are being flanked by pirates, please give orders!"
After calming his head a little, the bear goblin commander finally suppressed the anger and said loudly:
"Order the second detachment to intercept the Varangin pirates, and we will get up as fast as we can and deal with that hairless monkey in a white-knuckle fight. Long live the Empire! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Senate! ”
"Hooray! Banzai! Banzai! ”
The Varangin pirate group that roams the seven seas, it is said that the hometown of these ruthless people is in the frozen sea, but no one has ever been there, although these guys are also part of the human race, perhaps due to the harsh environment of long-term survival, many of the concepts and customs of the Varangin people have parted ways with the values of mainstream human society. For example, they were happy to sing the praises of death and sacrifice, and the Varangin people believed that the death of a man in his bed was a humiliation, even a sign of extreme incompetence, and that only dying at the edge of the enemy's blade as a fearless pirate and heroic warrior was a prerequisite for the immortality of one's soul.
Suddenly joining this naval battle on the way, the fierce Varangin pirates successfully restrained a lot of the energy of Zheti Baishan's fleet, deducting the small ships that were not qualified to participate in the fleet-level duel, and then removing the division of troops to intercept the participation of the Varangin pirate group in the main battlefield, at this time, the goblin fleet that appeared in front of Luo Zhengdao only had about 20 large sail oars and two giant sail oars.
Most of these warships are from the legacy of the Royal Fleet of the Bright Dynasty, and although their combat power should not be underestimated, compared to the privateer fleet under Luo Zhengdao's luxurious equipment, the Goblin Fleet no longer has an overwhelming equipment advantage. To put it more bluntly, that is, after this battle is fought, it is still unknown who will lose and who will win!
"Shoot rockets!"
"Day-day-day-day-day-"
When the goblin fleet approached Luo Zhengdao's fleet, it was still the goblin rocket salvo handed down by the ancestors, which was a cliché, but it was far from being outdated and should be thrown away.
Putting aside the emotional factor, Luo Zhengdao admires the goblin very much, but it is not the second goblin empire that is invincible at the moment, but the first goblin empire that has passed away with the wind. A group of frail dwarfs dominate the monster-infested New World, relying on mortal wisdom rather than brute force, and despite a series of false decisions that ruin their civilization and kingdom by not dying, the First Goblin Empire is still a civilized society. If compared with the militaristic Second Empire, the huge disparity between the two cannot help but make people wonder, how can the same race degenerate to this point, is it really a trick of fate?
In a flash of thought in Luo Zhengdao's mind, goblin rockets whistling in mid-air fell like raindrops, even if these uncontrolled rockets that generally followed the Brownian principle of motion were not accurate, the intensity of the projectile density was enough to compensate for the defects in accuracy.
As Goblin Rockets explode aboard the pirate warship, sailors are busy dealing with fire hazards.
"Quick, Xiude, lead someone to cover the fire on the upper deck with sand."
"Abby, unload the planks that have been stained with the alchemy mixture, and throw them all into the sea."
"Dirk, you go untie the sails, yes, you don't want to burn the whole ship!"
On the deck of the Avenger, Zola Hagel and the rest of the crew were really anxious to deal with these sudden situations, but Luo Zhengdao, the real shopkeeper, was much easier, he didn't need to deal with these specific affairs, and his eyes were always on the movements of Zheti Baishan's flagship. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the rocket launch is an appetizer in naval warfare, and the sumptuous meal is yet to come! Judging from Luo Zhengdao's actual combat experience accumulated in dealing with goblins in the past, this conceited and brave bear goblin commander will definitely go into battle to fight him in person, and long-range firepower against privateer fleets is certainly not the ultimate means of goblins, and the brave Zheti Baishan will not waste too much time on this, after all, it has not many opportunities.
As expected, after the goblin fleet fired two rocket salvos in a row, Zheti Baishan pointed to the pirate fleet in front of him and shouted:
"The whole fleet is attacking, the highest voyage charges, whoever can kill Will Needham will be promoted by three ranks, and the bounty will be 200,000!"
As the former master of the Lord 6, human beings are a very proud intelligent race, of course, they are not willing to accept the rule of the goblins, this problem is essentially unsolvable, and the goblins have deeply considered another layer, even if violence alone cannot solve the problem, violence can always destroy the problem! With the gods resolutely opposed, it is impossible for the goblin army to kill all the humans, so getting rid of those who may become leaders, the dragonless humans will be powerless to resist the goblins' rule, and even if they stand up and resist, it will not be much of a threat.
In the old world of China, the ruling group thought quite thoroughly about certain group issues, and the reincarnation of three hundred years of chaos and prosperity was of course the annihilation of countless achievements of civilization, and the brilliant achievements of the ancestors had to be recovered by future generations only in the subject countries. Although they can comfort themselves and ask for courtesy, this is not the case, and everyone knows it.
The wealthy relatives of ancient China annexed the land by various natural disasters, the rich were thousands of miles away, the poor had no place to stand, and the poor who could not survive rose up, no matter how great and brilliant the history of a dynasty was, it should be over when it came to this point. With the indiscriminate battle royale of the poor killing the poor, the rich killing the poor, the rich killing the rich, and the poor killing the rich, the change of dynasty and the death of more than half of the population are all strange stories in the world.
When the old system and social ills were destroyed by disorderly violence and destruction, the new dynasty built on the ruins could also recover peacefully for a while, and at the same time as the old dynasty collapsed, the big and wealthy families who occupied the land resources also declined, and the poor ghosts who had only one life left also died.
At this time, the new ruler can naturally easily come out and clean up the ruined rivers and mountains, and only need to distribute the wasteland to the poor to recuperate, and it will not take a few decades to claim that the xx prosperous era is coming, but this is also the starting point of another cycle of chaos and prosperity. In the end, the audience will suddenly appear, and the plot of the drama is still those old stalks with no new ideas, nothing more than a new actor, and the old plot of the earlier one is repeated without changing the medicine.
The new world of magic and swords is no better than the old world, and the existence of many intelligent races has made war doubly cruel and bloody.
Seeing Zheti Hakusan waving his furry arms on the flagship to boost morale and shouting battle horns repeatedly, the thick and thin bear goblin commander was still worried about the confidential information revealed by his acquaintances in the military department, and his mood was not relaxed at all.
The Second Goblin Empire was not as solid as it seemed, occupying too much land and population in a short period of time, amassing countless wealth, and the rapid expansion of the occupied areas caused the goblins to have a living force at their disposal scattered like pepper flour to the vast Lord 6 and the dotted colonies of the open sea. To put it bluntly, the territorial expansion of the Second Goblin Empire has reached the historical apex that its own strength can support, and then they can only think about how to keep the results of the battle and stabilize this precarious front.
Assuming that the exiled aristocratic group of humans, including Will Needham and Golder Needham, can be eliminated, and the Second Goblin Empire can be bought precious time to recuperate, it is not impossible to regain the glory of the First Empire, and this fateful key node is now in the hands of the Bear Goblin Commander.
Even if he prides himself on not knowing how to spell the word fear, facing severe trials and great temptations, Zheti Hakusan's inner world is not as steely and unyielding as it appears to his subordinates.
The truth is cruel, even if the goblins do not reach the invisible constraints of the limit of their power, it is unrealistic to cobble together a large fleet with all-round superiority to completely eradicate the pirates. The Second Goblin Empire has confiscated the rich family wealth accumulated by the human aristocracy for thousands of years, and the scraping of the land has accumulated all the wealth of the people, and of course there is no problem in terms of financial resources, and a large number of human slaves are used for free labor, and labor and material resources are not a problem, but skilled sailors and qualified naval commanders can not be cultivated overnight.
Not long ago, Modo Blackwater's attack on Wake Reef was hit by Storm Mana, and his goblin fleet lost almost seventy percent of its troops. The loss of those old warships is not a big deal for the Goblin Second Empire, and a large number of new warships are being built in the dock of the main big 6, and they will be replenished to the first-line fleet in less than half a year. However, the loss of a large number of goblin sailors who were familiar with seafaring skills was not a shortcoming that could be easily compensated. Because of this, Modo Blackwater, who has a very hard relationship, can't help but fall into bad luck, even if there is a big guy behind him to prevent him from being beaten to death with a stick, and he doesn't eat less of all kinds of rows.
"Tell everyone to pay attention to the change in wind direction and don't be bitten by the green skin."
Hearing Luo Zhengdao's reminder, while gulping down the rum in the leather wine bag, while controlling the steering wheel with one hand, and letting the wine spill from his mouth and wet his clothes, Zola Hegel's swarthy face was now red as if it was about to drip blood, and he shouted with an arrogant expression:
"Hahahaha, little meaning, if they want to catch up with the great Captain Hegel, the greenskins must first grow a pair of wings. Hahahaha......"
