Chapter 79: Supporting the Base

After eliminating the pirates on the sea, Zhang Fan and the others attacked their water village, and at this time, like last time, there were not many pirates in the water village. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

After the attack, a large amount of wood was harvested, after all, pirate ships need wood to build and maintain, and Zhang Fan is most concerned about the boatmaster, but there are no senior shipwrights in this water village, only an intermediate shipwright and a few junior shipwrights.

After occupying the water village, Zhang Fan used it as a base and began to build, mainly to build defense, as well as logistics supplies, and the dock was also expanded.

The next day, Zhang Fan led the fleet to set off early in the morning, and there was no need to defend this temporarily occupied base, but some construction personnel were left.

According to the chart, Zhang Fan set off according to a certain route, and in half an hour, he encountered a pirate fleet, although it was an encounter, but Zhang Fan was very excited, because of its scale, it was also the appearance of a two-level cottage, without hesitation, led the entire fleet, surrounded it, and began to besiege according to the previous method.

The other party had two big boats, one but no bow and crossbow, and after being surrounded, he looked a little flustered, and several small boats also cowered next to the big boat, Zhang Fan ordered, and several boats began to attack.

The crossbow was taken care of, and most of the crossbows of several boats were fired at him, with the result that the big ship was attacked in waves, and the only two crossbows were separated by a long time before a single bolt could be fired.

The pirates were pressed and beaten, and the boats of Wanghai Village began to approach, and the boats approached at the same time, and several small boats began to attack their boats.

The pirates were powerless to fight back, and in the face of this wave of blows, they did not even dare to approach the side of the ship, and some simply lay on the deck to avoid being attacked.

Seeing that the pirates' counterattack was becoming more and more weak, the ships of Wanghai Village approached, and after getting closer, they shot three rounds of arrow rain at the ships, and after the arrow rain, the pirate ships completely lost their resistance, and only a few pirates surrendered.

After surrendering, it was easy to deal with, boarded the prisoners, and then received these pirate ships.

The pirate ship has been damaged in many places, and the mast and canvas are also in tatters, and it needs to be driven back for repairs.

After capturing these pirates, Zhang Fan asked them to lead the way and capture their lair.

I learned about it on the boat, and the other party's water village turned out to be a third-level water village, and I didn't bring it all out this time, but it was wrapped up by Zhang Fan and them.

With the pirates leading the way, they quickly found their water village, which is not very secretive, just next to the pirates, and is easy to find.

Zhang Fan led a large army to come, and was discovered by the watchtower above the water village from a distance, but the discovery was found, in the face of a powerful enemy, they hurriedly sent a boat to meet the battle, but there was only one big boat, here is the island, the sea, in addition to the battle is surrender, and they can't run if they want to.

Maybe it's the setup of the system, bandits or pirates usually rarely surrender on their own initiative, and of course it's easy for you to force them to surrender with a huge advantage.

A large ship was besieged by Wanghai Village, and in fifteen minutes it lost its combat effectiveness and surrendered.

There was a battle at the gate of the water village, and there were still some people left behind in the water village, and they saw the fate of the warships that went out to fight, and they suddenly lost the courage to resist.

It is very easy to take down the water village, this water village is very large, after all, it is a three-level water village, Zhang Fan looked at the chart again, and found that the location here is very good, the water surface is open, and on the watchtower, you can see the ships sailing on the sea from a long distance.

Zhang Fan decided to occupy this place as a base, and the one he occupied before could be used as a supply base halfway.

After occupying the base, Zhang Fan was overjoyed, because he captured a high-level shipwright, as well as seven middle-level shipwrights and a dozen junior ones, and the most important thing was that Zhang Fan found more than 10,000 units of third-level wood in the warehouse.

The third-level timber is very scarce, most of the timber found on the island where the Manniu King is located is second-class, and a small part is third-grade, so the third-level timber in Wanghai Village is still very scarce now.

Only good wood can make better products, not only shipbuilding, waterwheels, crossbow arrows, etc., with good wood, then various properties can be improved.

"Where did the wood come from?" Zhang Fan asked a pirate.

"Your Majesty."

"Call the village chief."

"Village Chief, this timber is produced on this island, there is a small forest farm on the island, the forest farm is not large, but it can produce 10,000 units of third-class timber every month."

After Zhang Fan asked, the pirate said honestly.

10,000 units of third-grade timber can build two large ships, and the performance of the boat will be more outstanding, the maintenance cost will be greatly reduced, and the sailing time can also be enhanced.

It can be said that unless there are supply and repair stations everywhere, a ship built of low-grade wood will not go far, while a ship built of high-grade wood will be durable and can go far in a single voyage.

Zhang Fan became even more determined, turned this place into a logistics base, and immediately wrote to Yu Qian, asking him to send a team of construction workers over, and also send some soldiers to garrison.

Zhang Fan learned about it, this island is quite big, and sent someone to check it, there are still many herbs on the island, but these pirates have treasure mountains but don't know about treasures.

There are actually quite a lot of resources on the sea, at least in terms of elixir, many of which are only available on the islands, and of course there are advantages and disadvantages, so I won't say much about it here.

After playing a third-level water village and obtaining an island that produces third-level timber, and there are herbs on the island, Zhang Fan was very happy, so he planned to continue looking for pirates.

Then Zhang Fan attacked again and laid down a second-level water village, and the captured shipwrights were not sent back to Wanghai Village, so they were sent to the occupied water village.

Zhang Fan deliberately called this water village a "support point" base, in order to allow Wanghai Village to conquer this sea area and completely occupy this sea area.

To occupy this vast sea, there must be a support point, otherwise progress will be slow.

In the evening, Zhang Fan found that this speed was still too slow, and it would be good to hit three water villages a day.

"How can I increase the speed, it's only been a month, and now it's been a few days." After Zhang Fan received the task, he stayed in the Treasure Pavilion for another three days, so if he wanted to get more rewards, he had to speed up.

"Yes, the fleet specializes in attacking ships, and post-war matters such as attacking the water village and collecting loot can be handed over to other teams, so that they can go directly to the next place after they have annihilated the pirate ships on the water."

Zhang Fan thought about it and felt that this plan was feasible, the main combat power of the pirates was these warships, and when the warships were destroyed, their strength would not be much, and it would be very simple to let others go ashore to clean up at this time.
