"Privateers", a state-encouraged form of piracy, originated from the uninterrupted wars between the countries of the Old World. It originated 600 years ago, when oars and ramming were still used in offshore combat.

In the absence of time for the navy and the inconvenience of coming forward, the state-certified civilian armed privateers, as a supplementary force, have become the best way for various countries to attack each other's merchant ships and supply lines and plunder property!

Historically, however, privateers have been a tactic used by the weaker, and are commensurate with the current strength of the New World.

In the era when Cyrius dominated the New World and the Black Sea, the rising Tulip, Sack and other national powers were obviously unable to challenge Cylius sea power head-on, and privateers had become an asymmetrical means of competition in their hands many years ago.

It has finally reached its peak and formed a comprehensive and allied privateer group.

The Cyrius had long hated it, regarded it as piracy, and offered a bounty on privateer captains.

Even if you have a privateering license in a certain kingdom, if you are caught by Sylius, don't think that you can go through diplomatic channels, you will only be executed as a pirate!

So to the top of the kingdom is its own privateer fleet, but to foreign countries it is a group of pirates without a doubt!

But.

Privateers certainly have certain advantages over ordinary pirate groups.

They are officially registered and have legal status to repair, maintain and replenish certain ports in the corresponding country.

It is possible to legally recruit normal crews like any other merchant ship, not just criminals who have no way out.

At the same time, it is much more profitable to dispose of loot than it is to deal with it on the black market.

The most important point is that the members of the privateers have the right to disembark and return to the civilized world! Because their actions are authorized and endorsed by the state, burning, killing and looting are not crimes!

And it is not limited to the privateering permission of the native people, it is also normal for the privateering permission of the Atlantians Nasak or Tulip, but the privateering license of which country is used is to serve the country.

Differing policies also make privateer crew members inconsistent in their nationalities and flags.

It's a unique business.

At this time.

This indiscriminate raiding campaign by Cyrius was the trigger for a vast area of privateering.

For various reasons, at least on the surface, none of the countries of the New World directly sent their navies to launch a national war, but more like a proxy war through privateers and Zhao'an pirates!

Thanks to the supremacy of Syrius, the number of merchant ships of Cyrius currently accounts for at least half of the merchant ships traveling to and from the New World, and it also creates ample living space for hostile forces such as the "Dragoon Pirate Regiment".

Merely.

The new members of the pirate group may not know that the name of the pirate group, which sounds very imposing, was decided by the leader of the group on the impromptu pat on the head just before the recruitment plan was officially announced.

Port Hatrafa, Milan, as interim registrar, when looking for the head of the regiment, Aven, to finalize the recruitment documents

"The preliminary news has been released.

Although the conditions for us to accept people are a bit harsh, we have eliminated a large number of bad pirates. But pirates, colonial sailors, and even some veterans reacted positively.

But have you forgotten something, Captain?"

Glancing at it without a problem, while signing the final recruitment document, Evan asked casually:

"Huh, what forgot?"

"Our pirate group still doesn't have a name, can't it be called the White Knight's pirate group in the future?"

Evan patted his head before he realized it.

It's been a busy time.

After a smooth return from the Golden Post Road, he followed Lieutenant General Gustav to meet with Justice Roy Quinnier of the Royal Maritime Court, and went through the normal process of privateering, which also laid the foundation for the inevitable intersection that followed.

Subsequently, the gold bars and silver ingots from the legal booty were deposited in the Royal Central Bank, where Phaletis had the right to mint money.

Guarding some of the exchanged currency and large gold tickets, all the members who participated in the war for the first time adopted the "democratic" method of piracy, combined with the practice of the navy and pirates, to establish a new trophy distribution system for the "dragoon pirate regiment".

After the elimination of the factors of production (warships, artillery, preparation, etc.), a system was formulated in which "distribution according to work" was established, and the number of personnel of the same rank and workers was distributed according to the head.

The fundamental reason is that the combat effectiveness of the transcendents, as well as the differences in crew ability, technology, experience, position, etc., cause huge differences in the contribution of each person.

Just like the great contribution in this operation, a peak knight in front and a "clockwork man" who has almost surpassed the second order in the back, not to mention the remaining ninety or so people, even if the number of people is ten times more in vain.

Therefore, in the end, in addition to the 10% handed over by the privateer fleet to the Maritime Court, the loot Evan alone received 70%, and all the second-order official transcendents who participated in the war shared 10% equally, and the ordinary members shared the last 10%.

It is also the most direct manifestation of their contribution in this operation.

Even so, the golden lion that ordinary members share equally is already worth an ordinary navy who is rich on a normal night in service!

In the future, in the normal raiding operations of the privateer fleet in the form of pirate ships, except for 10%, it will be handed over to the maritime court.

In the remaining part, the regimental commander takes 10% and fills it into the fleet's public account, 10% is used as the necessary supply and maintenance of the ship, the captain takes 20%, the pirate cadres and technical backbones take 25%, and all ordinary crew members share 25%.

This is the most suitable distribution system for the transcendent world.

Compared with the normal naval distribution system, it seems that only the captain suffers.

But in fact, only the captain who is a transcendent can truly become the core of the fleet, and obtain the benefits of witchcraft props, transcendent knowledge, and the personal guidance of the regimental commander, which can never be exchanged for wealth.

What's more, after changing to better equipment, even if the share ratio is reduced, the total income will definitely be more than in the past.

Compared to those wild pirates, the conditions are absolutely excellent.

Because Ai Wenbai said that even in the birthplace of the original democracy, only the "citizens" who were the cornerstone of the city-state enjoyed political rights and a variety of privileges.

And these captains who have reached at least the transcendent level are their own "citizens" and the foundation of their own control of this team!

As for the rest of the ordinary crew members who want better treatment, it is not without opportunities, at least he has left a systematic upward channel for them with regular training and assessment system.

As long as you are good enough, everyone has a chance to get ahead!

In addition, through William's relationship, he made a few turns and established a preliminary connection with Rudolph, the "dead bone" in the Golden Sea Double King.

After all, being a pirate doesn't seem too unusual, and it's normal to get in touch with each other.

What's more, as a staunch anti-Cyrius, this powerful wizard of the "Necronomicon School" is also a force that his side can fight for.

After all this, it was finally time to take a breath, and when he heard Milan's reminder, Evan finally remembered this stubble.

Suddenly scratched his head and pondered.

It's too hard for half a name.

However, in the end, it was finally a flash of inspiration, and I inexplicably thought of a name that I had heard my first mate Boris say before.

The name of the unit that was once a flash in the pan under the leadership of the eldest lady in the Yuanfan Collar felt that the momentum was not bad, and with his usual doctrine of taking it, he finally decided on the name of the pirate group.

"Let's call it the Dragoon Pirate Regiment. ”

Moreover, the "dragoons" of this era were also another name for the short-bodied flintlock cavalry of the King's Praetorian Guard, and the name obviously had another deep meaning.

As for the final confirmation of the pirate badge is a black and red dragon dragon head, and even the dragon's face is somewhat similar to Kaka, it can be regarded as a kind of expectation for Kaka's future.

As a lizard, if you don't have the dream of growing wings and soaring into the sky, what is the difference between it and a salted fish?

At this point, the "Dragoon Pirate Regiment" can be regarded as officially stepping on the stage of the New World!

In the days that followed.

Dragoons began to massively absorb the Arawaks, who had a blood feud with Syrius, as well as outstanding pirates and ordinary seamen from all sides.

Of course, for Aven, who is still a wizard at heart, the screening technique has already been perfected on his own crew.

Ai Wen treats this force as his own private armed force, and must not accept everyone like those grass platform teams, which are uneven and smoky, and even carry a string of spies.

Pirate cadres on pirate ships are set up to imitate the military positions within the navy, and although the management is stricter than that of ordinary pirate ships, they can also maximize their group combat effectiveness.

What's more, it is a seller's market now, and under the guidance of the prestige of the White Knight, there are too many people who want to join in for the sake of fame and profit.

In just half a month.

A heavy cruiser "Daystar", two of which have also been refitted, although unrecognizable, but with a lot of improved performance, the fifth-class cruiser "Gladiator" and "Wrestler".

With 24 elite navies as the backbone, the three core warships that filled the hands of the new recruits have gradually formed combat effectiveness.

As long as you run in for a while, when you really appear on the sea, it is enough to make everyone look sideways!

Moreover, Evan also has the ultimate weapon.

As long as he succeeds in becoming a pirate cadre through competition, he can get a "revitalized animal skin" through his personal assessment.

Even if you were originally just an ordinary sailor, you can ascend to the sky in one step and become a first-order transcendent on a par with the later stage of the apprentice knight!

Of course, it's not entirely impossible for ordinary people to try to put on "living animal skins" made of demonic creatures.

But there will be two consequences, with a high probability of being eroded and devoured by the powerful "Activated Hide".

With a small chance of defeating the will of the demonized creatures remaining in it with his superb will, he will assimilate that skin into a part of himself, and become the "Skinman", the attendant of the wizard of the "Living Chemical School"!

It can be regarded as an alternative and extraordinary profession with great restrictions, and in human form it is almost only equivalent to a mid-to-late apprentice knight, but after "furding", he can immediately have about seventy percent of the strength in front of the skin owner.

Gain the ability to solidify the Transfiguration, and have both human and beast combat forms.

The only downside is that this is not an extraordinary path that is imprinted in the roots of the world, and while the risk of losing control is high, it is extremely difficult to grow in strength.

It is impossible to break this natural limitation unless you embark on the path of knighthood and start with a physical force that is pure in nature and compatible with any transcendent power.

At least there is no other good way to do it in the Inheritance Scroll from hundreds of years ago in Aiwen's hands.

So when Evan used a demonic creature-level horn shark that he accidentally captured, he succeeded in crafting the first transcendental-level "Activated Animal Skin".

Facing Baldwin, who took the initiative to apply for an experiment on himself, he asked with some surprise:

"Have you really thought about it? Although you may reach the sky in one step, it is more likely that you will fall into hell with one foot in the air!"
