Chapter 58, acting skills are urgent, and courage is commendable
The panda's analysis was endorsed by President Hruk. This made the seed girl, who still had some expectations, extremely distressed, and had been muttering in a low voice that night.
The content of her muttering is nothing more than complaining that those smuggling organizations that are about to attack go out to rob without bringing enough money, which is like the boss going out without preparing a set of equipment to explode to others at any time, which is a shameful fraud!
But complaining is complaining, people don't bring money, and she can't help it.
Because of this, she seemed sick and unenergetic, and when she had finished eating, she lay down on the deck and slept, lying motionless and blowing the sea breeze, and if she were to put a title on this picture, it would have been "Leave me alone, let me be a quiet salted fish" or something like that.
However, she was not able to do the promising job of "Quiet Salted Fish" long enough, and after the fleet had been on the road for another five or six days, and with two or three days left to reach Longtou Island, the expected smuggling organization finally arrived.
Interestingly, the group also followed the example of pirates, dyeing the sails black and raising the black flag as a symbol of pirates, which really looked like that.
Standing on the lookout platform at the top of the mast of the "Big Fish", the panda looked at the dozen or so clippers coming in line with the wind from a distance, and said to the lookout next to him, who had just been transferred from a pirate navigator: "From your professional point of view, how many points can they score for their appearance?"
The lookout's name was Manny, and there were a lot of people who called Manny, and when they shouted in the street, at least two or three would turn their heads. He was originally a merchant, because he was drunk, he got into a big fight with someone for a dancing girl, accidentally smashed the other party to death with a wine bottle, fled in fear of crime, and later became a pirate. As a result, he was unlucky and ran into a pirate captain who was not good at finding fat sheep. After two or three years of work, he grabbed less than ten ships in total, of which only two were really profitable, and he himself didn't even have a chance to fight, in fact, this is the real ecology of most pirates in the South China Sea, those who can make a lot of money, drink wine and eat meat in a big bowl, and live a leisurely life are really a minority.
Hearing the panda's question, Manny smiled bitterly and said, "Professional? But this is how they ...... It really doesn't look like a pirate. ”
"What's not like it?" asked the panda curiously.
"The formation is too neat. Manny pointed to the formation of the dozen ships opposite, "Pirates are used to fighting in single ships, and they have not and cannot undergo formation training. With such a neat formation, I am afraid that only the fleet under the command of the pirate king Barbarossa can be put on display. ”
The panda nodded slightly, feeling that he had a point.
"And the technology they have the upper hand can't do it. Manny went on to say, "The most important thing for us pirates is to know which way the wind blows. Gaining the upper hand is the most critical step in the whole process. As long as you have the upper hand, it is convenient to pursue or escape. So this is the most important skill of a pirate, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is related to life. For a pirate captain, as long as he sees a ship nearby, his first reaction is to seize the upper hand and the captain who has not developed this habit has basically fed the fish, or hung in which port to dry. ”
He smiled and pointed to the boats in front of him: "But look at them, the formation is neat, but the matter of seizing the upper hand is not positive at all." This shows that in their opinion, the formation is more important than the direction of the wind, and if I guess correctly, they should not be pirates, but the navy!"
The panda was stunned for a moment and frowned: "Navy?"
"That's right! Even if it's not a regular navy, it's trained in the direction of a regular navy. Only the navy will pay such attention to formation, and only the navy will not care much about the direction of the wind, because they do not need to rob others or evade pursuit, they only need to win. ”
The panda suddenly realized and patted Manny on the shoulder: "I really can't see it, you are quite level." My friend Yune is going to build a country in a while, and when the time comes, you will need naval talents, would you like to enlist?"
Manny was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.
He is only thirty years old, and he is at the age when he is ambitious and wants to make a name for himself and make a name for himself, and to be able to become a naval officer in a newly built country is of course something that cannot be desired!
Although the South China Sea is large, there are not many forces that can really build a state. But as long as the founding of the country is successful, there will be a large number of nobles. Even if these noble titles have a lot more water than those on the mainland, at least the "identity" is recognized by everyone, if he can mix a noble status in the country of His Majesty Younero, even if it is only the lowest knight, in the future, let the future generations have a surname to boast of, how glorious it is!
If Panda had the ability to check loyalty, he would now be able to see Manny's loyalty hula jump from thirty or forty to seventy or eighty all of a sudden, which is like a plug-in.
While Panda and Manny were chatting, Liu Daoqing and Seed Niang had already made a move. Liu Daoqing naturally turned into a current and secretly ran into the opponent's fleet. It was daytime, and the sea breeze was strong, so it was inconvenient for him to make fog, so he simply lurked and waited for the opportunity. The seed lady showed the true body of the black dragon, and she did not lower it, hovering over the opponent's fleet, squirting out a mouthful of acid from time to time. The acid dispersed in the air, turning into a corrosive acid rain that fell into the fleet of ships posing as pirates, and immediately wailed into a single one.
There were masters in the fleet, and when they saw this situation, they immediately opened their bows and arrows, and one arrow after another shot at the black dragon overhead like a meteor catching the moon. However, as a flying force, the seed lady naturally attaches great importance to the protection of arrows and magic, and she has brought more than a dozen amulets such as "protective arrows" on her body, and she also brings a lot of "deflection force field" and "fuzzy force field". Occasionally, one or two shots were blocked by the magical light on her body, and she couldn't hurt even a single hair.
Seeing that the black dragon could attack wantonly, but their own counterattack was useless, the group of attackers disguised as pirates were a little flustered, but after a while, they regrouped and rushed towards the fleet of the Great Fish Chamber of Commerce.
"Damn, don't you run yet?!" Panda was taken aback, he expected this group of people to run away after being sprayed with a few mouthfuls of acid by Seed Niang, but he didn't expect them to not only not run, but also dare to continue attacking.
"Although the acting skills are urgent, this fighting spirit is really amazing! Courage is commendable, courage is commendable!"
