Chapter 263: Clearing the Pirates

The Far Eastern Military Alliance was a military alliance that was originally established to settle regional affairs, and the Dutch only wanted to form a separate alliance with the Australians, but in the end, what they didn't expect was that the Australians brought the Spaniards in, and then the Portuguese also came in.

The Four-Power Military Alliance, after its formal establishment, has not yet conducted a single joint operation, especially for such a nascent organization, which is not good, in order to deepen the combat coordination between each other.

The Dutch proposed a joint clearance operation near Malacca, because this generation was a gathering place for pirates, including pirates from the Ming Dynasty, as well as European and Japanese pirates, who plundered passing merchant ships, even warships.

The reason why the Dutch offered to clear the pirates, which was nominally under the jurisdiction of the Viceroyalty of Malacca, was that one of their warships had recently been plundered by local pirates, and in addition to killing men, all the goods and ships were taken.

The Dutch are the overlords of Southeast Asia, at least they were the overlords before the Australians appeared, but now there are pirates who dare to rob them, which is simply unbearable for them.

In addition, they lost to Spain on Dayuan Island, and now they have received a double blow, in case other people don't take them seriously, then they are not confused in Southeast Asia, so they decided to crack down on pirates in this area, so they dispatched three warships to invite the Australians to act together, and it is also the first joint operation of the Far East military alliance.

The significance of this operation is very significant, and it is beneficial for all countries, after all, everyone's merchant ships have to pass through this sea, and the more rampant the piracy here, the less beneficial it is for everyone.

The more rampant piracy became, the more likely it was that the merchant ships of various countries would be attacked, and they even dared to attack the Dutch warships, let alone merchant ships, so the Dutch decided to liquidate them.

For the Dutch's request, the Australian side immediately responded, Wang Tiehammer said yes, but since it is a joint operation, then bring the other two countries together, so Spain sent three ships, and a Portuguese warship accompanied the five Australian warships.

A total of 12 search warships carried out clearance operations in the waters of Malacca, and the pirates naturally received the news, in the face of 12 search warships equipped with artillery, they did not have the ability to settle down, especially the Australian warships, the guns on the warships were very powerful, and they had not heard such rumors for the first time.

If they faced one or two warships alone, they still had this strength, so the pirates immediately discussed, and several pirate leaders with considerable strength sat together.

Poisonous dragons, we should unite like them, so that we can form a powerful coalition of pirates and defeat them.

It was a white man who was calling the poisonous dragon a Chinese man who had a nickname because he had lost one eye in a raid.

There were more than a dozen pirates who came to the pirate gathering today, pirates who dared to go out to sea to rob a few fishing boats, and pirates who owned three sail ships.

For example, the poison dragon and the white man each owned three sails, which was the largest of these pirates.

Although their strength is different, no one obeys the other, even those pirates who only have small fishing boats, they do not obey each other, in their opinion, although they do not have large ships, but fishing boats have their own advantages.

It was very rare for them to be able to sit together, and if it weren't for the news that the four nations had joined forces to clear the pirates, they would never have sat together.

The world of pirates is not subordinate to anyone, and they are expected to be under a unified leadership, unless that person has absolute strength.

Judging from the current situation, they don't have such a force at all, if they had such strength, they would have learned from Zheng Zhilong to unify these pirates, and then occupy this place to collect protection money.

It is because they do not have such strength that they will eventually lead to the idea that no one obeys anyone now.

The poisonous dragon looked at the white man with a smile, "Locke, I think you have to convince them first, otherwise it will be difficult for us to unite, you should feel this, so convince them." ”

Locke frowned, saying that it was difficult, but it was okay to try.

"Gentlemen, the danger is approaching us, we don't have much time to make decisions, so show your sincerity, whether to unite or not is up to you, if we can't unite we will be completely cleared by the other party."

Locke was right, the twelve warships of the Far Eastern Military Alliance came to destroy them at the same time, and they simply could not fight alone.

In fact, everyone understands in their hearts, but they have a very big opinion on who will be in command, originally this kind of thing should generally be distinguished according to the size of the strength, but they don't need to, these guys actually want to be the boss and command the battle.

This makes those pirates who have big ships dissatisfied, I let you have a man with only a few small fishing boats in command, this is too embarrassing, you don't even have a boat, and you dare to command me, this is absolutely not okay.

As for letting one of the two people, Poison Dragon and Locke, take command, they didn't agree, why, because they were afraid that they would send themselves to the forefront as cannon fodder to preserve their strength, it was not good to have such an idea, but they didn't think that if they didn't unite together, they would be cleared sooner or later.

If no one obeys anyone, it will be very difficult to do so, and if you don't obey anyone, then how to command, it is not yet a loose combat state.

There will certainly be people who will suffer if they want to unite together, but it is certainly necessary to sacrifice some people in order to save the whole collective.

In the end, they discussed for a long time and did not come up with anything, as for the main reason why they did not discuss it, I will not say.

However, Locke and Independence formed an alliance, and both sides were jointly commanders and commanded the battle, so that at least they could resist the attack of the Far Eastern military alliance.

After all, they have cooperated with each other quite a few times, so they can mediate internal conflicts very well, and those people are different, in order to avoid a direct conflict with the military alliance in the Far East, they found a good place to hide.

As for whether it can happen or not, it depends on their luck, but at least it can be shown that they are not cannon fodder.
