Chapter 408: Tiger Tooth Ship
The main responsibility of the Warring States on land is to deal with India and Southeast Asia, which is not a big problem, Thailand, Singapore and other countries have little desire to use force abroad, Myanmar, Laos and domestic relations are better, only one Vietnam, both ambitious and a little powerful, but after all, it is difficult to make a single hand, and it can't make many waves in front of the Warring States.
In India, although the number of players is enough, the level is a little worse, often when it is funny, and there are few times when it is real.
Therefore, most of the energy of the Warring States was spent on the sea.
Not only Indonesia and the Philippines, which are traditional island countries that are good at sea warfare, but the most troublesome thing is the United States fleet that unites Australia.
Although separated by the Pacific Ocean, the United States has always liked to place military bases all over the world, which is certainly convenient for the southern and northern wars, but in fact, the cost is really not small.
However, the geographical environment of the United States is too superior, the east and west oceans are natural barriers, and Canada in the north almost wears the same pants, and its strength is not good.
South America, on the other hand, is a replica of Southeast Asia, with average strength and contentment with the status quo.
Therefore, Lao Mei almost does not need to defend his homeland in the game, although the major clubs also have infighting, but the situation is different from that of other countries.
The domestic competition in the United States has a clear geographical division, and in general it is divided into two camps, and the two sides are relatively peaceful most of the time, and only in some special periods will they fight in a big way.
Other times, the only way to vent your energy is abroad.
As Xie Yong said, China's waters are the favorite place for Lao Mei to come.
Of course Lu Zhe also knows this? Said: "In that case? The Warring States should plan ahead. ”
Xie Yong was puzzled: "What do you mean?" ”
"If I immediately provide thirty gunboats to the Warring States, Team Xie should be able to do a lot of things."
Xie Yong was silent for a long time? Only then did a message arrive: "The condition is that the Warring States will not touch Tai Island?" ”
"That's right." Lu Zhedao.
"Thirty gunboats is indeed a great temptation? But the price seems to be a little small on the island of Bithai. ”
"Of course it's more than that? Thirty ships is just the first batch, can I promise Team Xie? Once the Ying Xiao Guild has acquired a higher-level ship? The first one was sold to Sengoku first. ”
"How can the Grey God guarantee that you can continue to get the blueprints of the more advanced ships first?"
"This ...... Hey. ”
"You don't already have the blueprints of the Huya, do you?" Xie Yong suddenly woke up.
He had been wondering why the bad bad wolf had the confidence to let the Warring States break the idea of absolute Tai Island, because the Warring States wanted money and money, and wanted people? Ambitions for the island of Thailand? It is completely a part of the strategy, and it is not something that can be bought by some interests at all.
But now it's finally understood.
The other party has already regarded Tai Island as a bag, and the Huya ship, regardless of size and firepower, is not comparable to the gunboat.
Just the ten guns that come with the ship's own hull? It is far more powerful than Lu Zhe's existing D259 medium gun.
And its biggest advantage is the speed? This is incomparable to even a more advanced ivory ship.
The advantage of the gunboat is the cost performance? Therefore, it can be firmly located in the largest number of ships used in naval battles.
But in actual combat, the Huya ship is a well-deserved first.
Is it not only the most powerful ship in single combat? Also as the best frigate of the fleet.
Among all ships? The status of the dragon ship is about the same as that of an aircraft carrier in reality? Its cost of construction and maintenance is astronomical, making it inevitable that only a few countries can own it.
In this case, the ivory ship becomes the main ship of most fleets, and without a certain number of Huya ships as an external defense, the ivory ship, which has an astonishing load but is extremely bulky, is bound to become a target.
Therefore, in the game, although the gunboat is the most important combat unit, it is often the Huya ship that determines the overall strength of a fleet.
"In this case, Tai Island is already at your fingertips in the eyes of the Gray God, so why bother trading with the Warring States?"
Xie Yong was really a little helpless, when others hadn't even seen the shadow of the gunboat, the Yingxiao Guild already had the blueprints of the Huya ship?
He still has some doubts in his heart, but he basically still believes it, because this kind of thing is meaningless to deceive people, if he can't see the real Huya ship, once the Warring States has enough ability, he will not attack Taidao because of the big bad wolf's intimidation.
"I've always said that we're just lucky, in the future, the domestic maritime power, or the Warring States and November are the bosses, the Yingxiao Guild is too thin in the end, and it can only compete for a long time, and the stamina is weak, so I want to use a little benefit now, so as to be safe and sound in the future."
"With the Gray God here, the Yingxiao Guild may rise even earlier than Warwick." Xie Yong was no longer interested in discussing Tai Island at this time, but his cooperation with Lu Zhe really made him care a lot.
Not to mention the Huya ship, those thirty gunboats alone were enough for the Warring States to establish a huge advantage in a short period of time.
The most worrying thing is that the Philippines and Indonesia have already owned canoes early, and although they are unable to sail far, they are slowly encroaching on some small islands in the southern seas.
Small islands are small, but they are all resources.
The Warring States could not solve the current problem by relying only on these canoes purchased from the Yingxiao Guild.
But with gunboats it's different.
Judging from the previous naval battles between the Yingxiao Guild and Japan and South Korea, the advantages of gunboats over canoes and crossbowboats are unimaginably large, and they are completely blocked by people and killed Buddhas.
"Team Xie has won the award, and the Yingxiao Guild still has a long way to go." Lu Zhe said politely.
The two sides began to formally discuss cooperation.
Although it is cooperation, it is basically just some verbal agreements, and the binding force is actually very small, but most of these cooperation are based on the strength and interests of both parties, and it is more just an exchange.
"Do we already have a Huya?" Su Ying asked suddenly.
She turned her head over, in fact, it had been a while, but Lu Zhe didn't pay attention to it. When she saw the other party mention the Huya ship, Su Ying couldn't help but ask.
"Nope." Lu Zhe replied.
"Isn't that a lie to him?"
"Where did you lie to him, I didn't say from beginning to end that I already had a Huya ship, it was Xie Yong himself who said it." Lu Zhe is very innocent.
"This ......" Su Ying still felt a little inappropriate.
Lu Zhe smiled: "Don't worry, although it is not there yet, it will be available soon." ”
