Chapter 889: Plan
Innsman, offshore.
A group of pirates gathered, and at the core were the four legendary ships.
Fang Yuan was unruly in clothes, his collar was open, revealing his strong chest, and a crown was used as an armband, shining in the sun.
"We ...... To dominate the sea! He stepped forward and roared loudly.
"Wow!" Immediately, the pirates echoed all around.
"As the Pirate King, I need a territory, and of course, I don't want to look at the resources of the Nightmare Sea, nor the territory of any of my governors...... What I fancy is Insman, the country of large islands, and the unsinkable ship that peeks into the continent of Ofar! ”
Fang Yuan's voice was loud: "Pirates, conquer a kingdom for me, and have the grandest plunder!" From now on, you don't need any privateer orders, because you are the nobles of this kingdom! ”
"Oh?!"
The pirates' cheers were louder, and there was a hint of surprise.
Even Fang Yuan's men and the four pirate governors were equally shocked.
They hadn't thought that Fang Yuan would have such an idea before.
But for Fang Yuan, Insman is indeed in a good position, like an unsinkable ship, and it is even more choking the throat of the entire Offar continent sea trade.
He wants to completely monopolize the trade between the East and the West, and control this last hub, which will undoubtedly get twice the result with half the effort, so as to truly establish a maritime empire!
What's more...... The reforms that are being prepared will inevitably bring contradictions, and it is better to transfer them to the outside world than to explode them from within...... I can also eliminate Insman's vested interests and use them to buy off those who have come to me......
Fang Yuan calculated this very clearly.
And, it's also extremely decisive.
It doesn't matter if Insman is ready to form an anti-piracy alliance, because he will directly destroy the foundation of this ancient kingdom before that!
"Insman? That's a great object! ”
The pirate prince Edward touched his chin: "Its navy has lost most of its navy, and it cannot resist our attack, even if it does not seek to occupy it, it can loot all the riches of the port!" ”
"Not bad!"
Such a huge benefit also made the elven pirate governor Aeoris red-eyed.
"Innsman has always been a maritime power, and how much wealth has it accumulated since the opening of the golden route?" Wang Zhi's breathing was heavy.
"Of course...... Its land forces have to be considered, but we know that, for well-known reasons, Innsman's land forces are far inferior to its navy, numbering only one-third, and are scattered among the colonies......"
The new merfolk governor, Nemphadora, said.
"I repeat, this time we are not only going to plunder, but also to conquer this kingdom...... Not only its wharves, but also its interior, mountains, rivers, cities...... Can't let it go! ”
Fang Yuan repeated.
"But head, while the Innsman Army is a joke, if we pirates go deep inland, it's worse than a joke......"
This kind of thing can only be said by Fang Yuan's descendants, Bill and Wilson and others: "Pirates can't leave the sea, otherwise it's the same as a fish leaving the sea?" ”
"I've considered your suggestion."
Fang Yuan clapped his palms: "As for the inland, I naturally have already made arrangements, and now ...... Give me offense!! The original plan was to attack all the ports of Innsman like a pack of wolves, so that its army would be exhausted, and I, with the main force, would take the port of Brumint and attack its heart, the capital Grasse, from there! ”
He quickly ordered several other pirate governors to divide very rich ports and keep them safe, if only for his own greed.
"Boss!"
After the assignment was assigned, Wilson expressed his disagreement: "In this case, I suspect that these pirates will be very active in looting the port, and then they will stagnate, and choose to ......wait and see."
"If this is their choice, then let them do it, anyway, it can cause trouble for the Innsman Navy, and then contain a certain amount of land forces, it is enough!"
Fang Yuan nodded: "At present, how many people are there in our own pirate group?" ”
"After this period of recruitment, there are 19 ships and 7,000 sailors, which is already the limit......," Wilson said, "And, counting everyone on board, the number of people we send on land is only 5,000 at most, and if we can't make the legendary pirate ship exert its power on land, I think we may suffer a crushing defeat!" ”
No matter how weak the Insman Army is, it is still a professional army, and it is not too easy to fight against a group of messy pirates.
"Enough! Let's take the port of Brumin first! ”
Fang Yuanyi waved his hand: "Don't worry, we will celebrate in Grasse City soon!" ”
……
Port Bruminte.
Due to its proximity to the capital city of Grasse, the trade throughput here is among the highest in Innsman.
Even the news of the navy's defeat had only cooled it down a little.
Even if there is no cargo on the Eastern Golden Route, the exchange with the Offar continent and the various needs supplied to Grasse alone are enough to keep the port running.
At the port entrance, tall towers and many heavy gun batteries stand out.
A large number of patrol boats stared warily at the surface of the sea, with a little bit of leisurely flavor.
After all, few pirates have dared to attack Innsman's ports, and even though they know that the navy has suffered a crushing defeat, the citizens of Insman are so confident that no one dares to challenge the majesty of their maritime supremacy.
The sun is shining, and the sea is crashing against the beach.
Suddenly, a terrible horn suddenly sounded from the harbor.
"Pirates!"
A hoarse cry was heard, with a smell of panic and disbelief.
At the place where the sea and the sky meet, a dense black sail shadow emerges, and it instantly turns into nineteen murderous pirate ships.
Especially in the middle, the three legendary ships, the Ghost Ship, the Sun, and the Throne, with the majesty of oppression of all beings, made the Insman Navy scream sadly.
Bang bang!
The pirates were the first to fire, and the powerful artillery tore the patrolling boat to shreds in an instant.
"Legendary Ability - King Kong!"
In an instant, the Sun quickly transformed into a steel giant hundreds of meters tall, spitting flames from its feet, and quickly rushed towards the harbor.
Bang bang!
The cannons guarding the harbor immediately opened fire, making huge waves on the water.
With a gliding posture and incredible agility, the Iron Giant of the Sun dodged many shellings, came to the mainland, and reached out to hit it.
Thundered!
In the midst of the flying of steel and concrete, a battery was completely destroyed, and the huge barrel rolled down, and I don't know how many artillerymen were killed.
'Prepare for the secondary gun!' Auto-calibration! Launch! ’
At the same time, on the shoulders of the giants, two cannon barrels emerged, spewing terrifying flames.
In an instant, two more batteries were destroyed.
"Attack!"
From the throne, a loud command was immediately heard.
The pirates watched in amazement at first, but when they found that the fortified defenses had been destroyed almost instantly, they immediately let out a deafening cheer and howled towards the harbor.
In fact, this is simply overkill.
With Fang Yuan's strength at this time, three legendary pirate ships had been gathered, and there was no port in the entire world that could resist it.
With the invasion of the pirates, the port of Brumin also began a fierce resistance, as if in a dying struggle.
A large number of soldiers fought valiantly, using every neighborhood to fight the pirates and defend their lives and property.
"Pass the order, I need a lot of captives! The rest of the loot is divided equally among the pirates below! ”
Fang Yuan's sailor boots stepped on the land of the harbor and lightly passed the order.
"The Great Pirate King!"
Seeing this scene, Wilson couldn't help but step forward: "The enemy's resistance is very tenacious, and the strength of the Innsman Army may exceed our expectations, just by capturing this port, we will have a thousand dead and wounded, and the real army stationed here will not exceed five thousand, or with the assistance of our three legendary pirate ships...... Can't go on! ”
"I understand ......"
Fang Yuan nodded: "From Port Blumin to Grasse, there are at least three checkpoints, and in addition, there is a legion of more than 30,000 troops stationed in Grasse City, not to mention that they can mobilize several times as many militias and reserves......
"That's right, take the port of Bimmerin and leave, we still have interests, and if we continue to entangle, I'm afraid it will be ......"
Wilson didn't say a word, the pirates were unruly, and the casualties at this time had reached a very dangerous line.
However, in the next way, not only will the spoils of war be drastically reduced, but the casualty rate will increase significantly, I am afraid that even Fang Yuan, the pirate king, will be difficult to suppress their resentment.
"Well, you're quite right, so I'm not going to use pirates in the next battle!"
Fang Yuan smiled secretly: "Let me go and meet the captives who are left behind!" ”
He walked to a square guarded by pirates.
It was originally used for unloading, but the cannons of several pirate ships were aimed at the center, and if there was any movement in the black captive, they would immediately open fire.
"According to your orders, the captives here are all young and middle-aged, and there are 3,000 of them!"
The butcher walked over and smiled sinisterly.
"Good!"
Fang Yuan nodded, seeing that few of these captives wore military uniforms, and they were generally ordinary people and dock coolies.
But he didn't care, and took out a crown made of gold.
Sun Crown!
After defeating the power of the navy, Fang Yuan took his henchmen and excavated the island mausoleum of the Sun King and excavated this crown!
Now, it's time for it to come into play!
