Chapter Thirty-Nine: Billion Island Planet
This is a huge green planet, each of the five moons is larger than the Earth, two of the satellites have begun to take shape, one is a liquid hydrogen planet, and the last two are planets wrapped in hundreds of kilometers of ice, and each of them has one or two small moons, which appear to be an independent ecological group.
The largest continent on the main planet is about 16 million square kilometers in area, with a population of about 200 million people, and human skin is yellow, white, and brown. Seafaring technology has developed quite a lot, and the warships of the three empires have used ironclad ships, and their pointed ramming angles look daunting, but the power system is still wind and human power.
There are countless islands in the ocean, and a safe passage can only be obtained through generations of hard work, and the families of ocean adventurers are the wealthiest group and the most powerful organization. The pirate group is also a family hereditary system, and without the accumulation of ancestors, it is impossible to be a qualified pirate captain.
With such a huge planet, such a complex ocean terrain, and a large number of pirate groups, it takes a lot of human resources to conquer it. Silver here is hard currency, one silver coin is equivalent to a thousand copper coins, one copper coin is exchanged for a hundred iron coins, and gold is a rare treasure, a symbol of wealth and strength of members of the imperial family and large families.
According to satellite detection, the gold reserves here are still quite rich, but they are all on the bottom of the sea, no one has found them for the time being, and other metal minerals are also extremely rich, waiting for future generations to mine and utilize.
I chose an archipelago of 17 islands more than 2,000 kilometers from the mainland, three of which formed a triangle of 10,000 square kilometers, and the three islands were 5,000, 3,000, and 2,000 square kilometers respectively, and the rest of the small islands were between 100 and 200 square kilometers in size and of different shapes, forming a death channel full of reefs on the periphery of the triangular sea area. According to the seabed investigation of the detection robot, there are as many as 300 shipwrecks on the seabed in the outer waters, all of which were destroyed in the hands of the sharp knife-like undercover lookers.
There are no traces of human activity in this archipelago, and it has been found to be a natural fishing ground, and the flora and fauna of the island are also self-contained, as well as golden sandy beaches, which is a good base.
One evening, two chamber of commerce sailing ships anchored near an uninhabited island, ready to make a fire for cooking, a small sampan carrying five sailors into the uninhabited island, to find what food to eat, the captain leaned on the side of the ship leisurely looked into the distance, and was thinking in his heart: "This time I went to sea in an island country to exchange a lot of good goods, it is estimated that I can net a thousand silver coins, and there are two days to go to the port by sea, hehe." While thinking about taking out a small cloth bag from his bosom and untying it, dozens of red and green gems reflected dreamlike colors in the sunset, "These savages in the wilderness use these gems as fun stones, and let me exchange them with a bag of grain, what an idiot, buy a manor after I go back, and ask for a few concubines, this life is ······"
The captain was still dreaming, but he didn't know that danger had come. Three skull-flagged sailing ships quickly approached the two merchant ships under the cover of night, and when the crew realized that the pirates had climbed up through the small clipper, then the main ship approached, tied the merchant ship with iron hooks, and shouted: "We are the Black Wind Pirates, surrender and not kill." ”
An hour later, the owners of the merchant ships were driven to the island, leaving them with some groceries, and then pulling the two merchant ships back to the pirate's lair.
This robbery was all in the eyes of the soldiers of the guard regiment, and two submarines and a frigate followed the pirate regiment far behind, and after two days and two nights, they came to their lair.
The soldiers of the guard regiment were excited: "Finally, it's our turn to open meat!" ”
