Act 280 White Sands Harbor

Recruiting pirates was not a temporary initiative of White Steel, but one of the tasks that the base had arranged for this trip.

Of course, no one expects these pirates to do anything great, especially if all the mid- and high-level leaders are gone.

It is important to know that since ancient times, sailing has been an activity that relies heavily on technology and experience, and the real core of these skills and experience is all in the hands of the middle and upper echelons of the ship.

Without those people, the sailors could have driven the ship to the sea, but whether they could reach their destination was another matter.

Therefore, it will take a lot of effort to equip these pirates with basic seagoing skills, at least going to the Truman base for basic training.

Although White Steel ordered the pirates to unify the pirate forces in the nearby seas as much as possible, that was only the highest goal.

The lowest target, White Steel, didn't tell them, because there wasn't any!

This means that even if they are all sent into the sea to feed the sharks in the first battle, it is not an unacceptable result, anyway, there are many pirates like them, and if they fail once, they will find someone again, and they are not in a hurry about the layout of the sea area at all, and the development focus of the base will not be sea trade at least within ten years under the premise that the land territory is not yet stable.

The purpose of these pirates is to pave the way, to pave the way for the base to turn its attention to the sea.

…………………………

Following behind Cao Yu, Dimosen looked at the strange steel battleship curiously.

At first, Dimerson thought that the steel battleship was only made of steel on the outside, and the rest of the armor should be relatively light planks.

However, when he was brought into the cabin, the steel frightened the white sand nobleman who had been adrift at sea all the year round.

He felt like his brain couldn't turn anymore!

Why is that!?

The armor on the outside is also there, after all, it is meant to withstand attacks, but why is it that even the staircase he just walked down the cabin is made of steel plates!? Why not the common net ropes and planks!?

Don't they know how much extra weight this will bring to the ship!?

When Dimosen expressed his doubts, Cao Yu only gave him an answer that he never thought of anyway - using steel is both trouble-free and fireproof!

This time Dimerson was even more confused.

To create a light and strong steel plate like the one just now, it takes a lot of tempering by a blacksmith! And what does a plank need? All you need to do is open the trees and scrape the planks flat!

Obviously, it's easier to use wooden boards!

As for fire prevention, it's even funnier, could it be that their enemies are all masters or even legendary-level monsters!? What exactly is the attack that is able to penetrate the armor made of steel and ignite the planks inside!?

Even if these don't matter, steel plates are obviously countless times more expensive than wooden boards! If wood is worth more than iron, the Anglian sun must have risen in the west!

Or is it that the strange Huaguo tree is made of iron, and the wood is dug out of the pit!?

Dimosen followed Cao Yu all the way to the bridge of the "Stormwind", and as soon as he entered, he felt that his eyes were not enough.

At first glance, Dimerson saw the bright glass windows - they were truly superb! It's as clear as if it doesn't exist!

How much can this superb glass sell for in Baisha Port?

Dimosen couldn't think of it, because something like that had never appeared!

When he withdrew his gaze from the glass window and began to pay attention to the busy people on the bridge, he found that he could not understand what these people were doing with all his years of sailing experience!

If this is really the place to operate the battleship, as the previous man said, then why is there no big rudder at the very least!?

If you don't have that, how do you operate the boat?.

Don't tell me that the tiny wheeled object that the skinny girl is holding in her hand is the rudder!

Who doesn't know that the people who can hold the rudder are real men! (The rudder of the sailboat is not assisted, and the helmsman must directly compete with the seawater, and non-strong men cannot hold it at all)

As for the rest of the busy people, Dimerson didn't know at all what the strange boxes they were staring at were and how they could steer the ship by staring at them.

Under this dizziness and unbelievable torment, Dimerson finally waited for the white steel to return to the ship.

As soon as he saw White Steel appear on the bridge, Dimosen immediately greeted him.

"Your Majesty, thank you again for your righteous actions."

"You're welcome, as I said before, that's what every righteous person should do." Bai Gang said, "It just so happens that I need your help with one thing as well. ”

"Your Majesty commands!"

Dimosen became excited, he was not afraid that the other party would tell him to do things, he was afraid that the other party would ignore him!

"It's our first time going to White Sands Harbor, there are a lot of rules that are not clear, and now we are dragging a group of pirates, if we want to enter the port normally, I am afraid it will take a lot of trouble, I wonder if Knight Dimerson is willing to help us in this regard?"

Dimerson immediately said: "Of course there is no problem! I'll be sure of it! Our Glenn family has a family private harbor in White Sands Harbour where your ship can dock and I promise no one will trouble you! ”

"Then thank you Knight Dimoson."

…………………………

Just as Dimerson had assured, the Glenn family was indeed powerful in White Sands, and when Whitesteel's fleet made its way to White Sands, it immediately caused a lot of chaos.

The spewing steel battleship dragging several captured pirate ships is even more amazing than a sea monster or something!

Naturally, this eccentric fleet quickly attracted the attention of the White Sands Kingdom fleet. Fortunately, Dimerson did not lie about his connections, and after a lot of effort and some Mithril coins, White Steel's fleet was finally allowed to enter White Sands Harbor.

At the same time, the news that "the Storm King of the Principality of Black Thorns arrived at Baisha Harbor on a steel battleship blessed by the sea god" quickly spread throughout Baisha Harbor with the sea breeze, and the news reached the royal palace almost at the same time as the fleet docked.

The Glenn family's private harbor was quite good, and the ease with which the "Tempest", "Black Thorn" and the captured pirate ship were loaded into it did not interfere too much with the normal berthing of other ships.

As soon as he set foot on the land of the White Sands Kingdom, Bai Gang received an invitation from the king of the White Sands Kingdom.
