Chapter 665 Burning Sea II (please subscribe)

Surprisingly, not only ordinary pirates, but also those captains, even Huke and Barbarian Mountains. A complete pirate group has the following conditions: a captain, a vice captain, and then a sailor on the ship. Sailors can be subdivided into soldiers, logistics and maintenance personnel. Of course, the pirate group naturally needs a pirate ship, which is a basic element of the pirate group.

However, the number of talents, soldiers, ships and resources of the pirate group can be directly judged from the captain's status, or intuitively, from the captain's reward amount.

Like ordinary pirate groups, the captain is basically only a person with the ability of the fifth to sixth levels, and even the novices who have just debuted are only the third and fourth levels. And such a pirate group is usually not very large. They will have a small and medium-sized pirate ship with about 10 to 20 people.

Like the four pirates, it goes without saying that the Iron Scale is the specification of the Pope's Hall. There are also 30 or 40 people in the seat, such as Hook and Cinderila, who are riding on medium ships. However, the number of people at their level is not a standard to consider strength. When it comes to the pirate group at their level, they pay more attention to the quality of the crew.

Take Cindra as an example, the ten-person personal guard is at the level of an ordinary pirate captain, and even in the order, they are soldiers at the rank of lieutenant. In particular, the thief Eureka himself is a reward hunter. At present, his combat strength has almost broken through the seventh level, only one step away from the high level. Such a person is a figure everywhere in the West Continent, which shows that the overall combat effectiveness of the Water Demon is basically comparable to the fleet of about 20 knights.

The walrus of Manshan is only slightly smaller than that of the Iron Scale, but the group of Manshan has many affiliated ships, which can form its own fleet. Even in the second-level pirate groups, there are many pirate groups that directly obey the orders of the barbarian mountains. If necessary, Manshan can independently fight against a fully formed fleet of the Knights.

But the current situation is that on the other side of the Whispers Strait are three fully formed Knights fleets, with a total of more than 500 real large fleets. Such a force would have been cleared by the Knights if it had not been for the existence of natural barriers such as whisperers and devil's waterways in the roaring bay.

That is to say, the geographical environment of the Whisperer Strait limits the firepower output of the Pontifical Hall. With the staffing of one ship alone, you can intercept a hundred times your own number of enemies on the other side of the strait, and the number of personnel is limited to 100. In other words, the quality of the members of Destiny must be at least a few levels of the four pirate groups!

In addition to the captain, the members of the four major pirate groups have at least an average sixth level. On this basis, upgrade several levels, that is to say, the secondary combat power below zero, at least the eighth level! And the eighth level is the strength of the commander and the legendary captain!

For Hook and Man Shan, they couldn't help laughing bitterly after getting this inference. With many eighth-order members as their core members, it is no wonder that they have the confidence to fight the Sea God Order, and it is no wonder that women like Cedra will submit to him. Of course, they are the same now.

But they don't know that in the secondary combat power of zero, there are two ninth levels!

In the early morning, the port of Haijia is very busy. Hundreds of ports were moored, but now there are only a hundred pirate ships. While the members of Destiny intercepted the Pope's Hall fleet, they also won a very valuable time for the Sea House. Since yesterday, all the pirates in the Sea House have been mobilized. According to Zero's order, they will face the leaders of the Knights who appear from the Devil's Channel in two days.

This is not a joke. From the number of warships outside the whisperer's strait, it can be estimated that this is the combined strength of the three legions. Then there are at least two legion commanders who have been enveloped from the Devil's Channel. In addition to the Iron Scale, which is to serve as a guide, the enemy's high-level combat power in the Devil's Channel* is also more than three. In addition to the Knights of the Round Table manipulated by the regimental level, the combat power is not as simple as one plus one.

Fortunately, this time Destiny intercepted the Whisperer Strait, otherwise the pirate forces on the Sea House could not fight on two fronts at the same time. In order to fight against the enemy's high-level combat power, Haijia is integrating resources. According to zero, this is an elite battle, which can't accommodate miscellaneous fish-level troops at all. Instead of dispersing the materials, it is better to concentrate and meet each other.

So it was selected, including three legendary captains including Cidrela, and another 100 other promising captains and their pirate group were selected as the main candidates for this battle. The natural people of the selected pirate group are excited. After all, this is an epoch-making war. Whether it succeeds or fails in the end, it will always be recorded in the history of the Western Continent.

If you don't select it, you will give up your materials, concentrate them at the dock, and then classify and distribute them with a group of people led by Mr. X. These materials are mainly combat resources, including ammunition, firearms and other materials. From the materials piled up on the dock, it can also be seen that the gap between the rich and the poor between the pirates is really large. Some pirates can't even donate a handful of *, while some are moving boxes of high-quality military supplies from the goods, which are smuggled from inside the Pope's Hall.

It can be seen that the sacred papal hall is not necessarily full of devout believers.

Among these strategic materials, the most valuable is a batch of marine oil. Sea Oil is not only undersea oil. Of course, Sea Home does not have these resources, but these offshore oil is a high-end goods from several colonial islands with oil mines. The purity of this batch of marine oil is very high, and the purity of marine oil is directly proportional to the burning time. With it, pirates can build a flame interception belt to limit the enemy to a battlefield they set.

To this end, Hooke made a suggestion.

After coming out of the Devil's Channel, there are dense and complex islands. If the enemy is introduced into that area and then used marine oil to create a fire belt to block it, it will be beneficial for the pirates to fight a beautiful ambush. But this suggestion was rejected for two reasons. One is that although the complex island area is conducive to the concealment and ambush of the pirates, at the same time, a large amount of land also provides the knights of the round table to play the advantages of land warfare. The second point is the most important point that if you still have to take ambushes and other means to defeat the enemy with all your strength. Then even if it wins, it will give people a sense of victory.

However, this battle is a significant battle from any perspective. Zero insists on adopting a tough posture of confronting the front and defeating the enemy from the front. This battle is not just a battle for pirates to survive, but also to make a gesture to the hostile or neutral camps in the western continent.

That is, the Pope's Hall is not invincible, and the power of pirates is not what it used to be. Defeat the invading enemy with a tough attitude and undoubtedly slapped the Pope's Hall and Sauron to face. After that, it will fight with the Pope's Hall. If guerrilla ambush and other means are adopted, it will be strategic rather than weak.

In the past few years of Asgard, especially after meeting many nobles and high-level figures in the later period, Zero understood a truth. That is, the same thing, in different order, will bring people completely different feelings. Especially for those bigwigs, it has a more direct impact on their evaluation of you and the decision whether to fund or suppress them.

Sauron's high-pressure policy has been implemented for more than ten years. Zero does not believe that there will be no two-hearted people under him, and the frontal confrontation is more to show these people in order to win more allies. This is the ultimate meaning behind this war. When Zero explained this, Huke, who was originally opposed, finally agreed to Zero's strategy.

Pirates, even the four pirates with legendary colors. Even if they have superior combat power, they are not good at politics. It can also be said that they only pursue a free and unrestrained life. Therefore, from a perspective, there is certainly no long-term perspective. Zero is not the name of World War I, but the far-reaching impact that this post-war can have on the whole situation in the future.

Whoever can grasp the situation of future development is the final winner. This is a game. If chess players only see the gains and losses in front of them, they will have lost the overall situation.

And on the huge chessboard of the western continent, it is far from the time to win or lose.

So the head-on attack on the enemy commander was finalized, but the details still need to be discussed. It includes how to grasp the correct time of the appearance of the enemy ship, how to make good use of the sea oil to make fire belts, and some tactical details at that time. While Zero was discussing this matter closely, the members of the Destiny led by Franklin on the other side of the Whisperer Strait fell into a bitter battle.

After removing all obstacles, Colonel Maddell changed his strategy today and concentrated a large number of knight mecha and officers above the lieutenant level of the fleet as forwards. For Maddell, this is undoubtedly a big gamble, putting the strongest combat power into the breakthrough of the Strait at one time. In case of failure, the fleet led by him will only have a large number of ordinary soldiers with low combat effectiveness.

There is no doubt that Colonel Maddell made the right bet this time. In the face of the huge firepower of the Knight Mecha Group and the assistance of a large number of lieutenant-level capable people, the Pope's Hall has formed a chisel force that is more than several levels stronger than yesterday. Although Franklin stubbornly uses various traps, terrain and a group of high-level capable people who can be called trump cards. However, due to the huge disparity in quantity, the fleet of the Pontifical Council advanced in the strait.

In this process, it can be seen that people with the ability to kill like Berien have far more advantages in attacking the army than those with strong capabilities such as Feng Hesu. It was also under Berien's strong firepower output that the fleet of the Holy See did not break through the strait in one breath. In the face of the overwhelming advantage in the number of enemies, Franklin had to adjust the plan.

Under the situation of Berian's attraction and continuous output, Su and others turned the target of the attack into the other party's commander, and staged a scene of killing enemy generals among thousands of troops and horses, which can be regarded as an example of war. After dismantling the command system of the other fleet, it continued to consume the enemy's strength through sports warfare. In the end, in the face of snowball-like accumulated losses, Madder had to stop the advance and establish a temporary forward base based on the strait curve to restrain Franklin from taking the opportunity to recover the lost land.

At dusk, the Pope's Hall fleet changed its decadence yesterday and broke through to the No. 3 area designated by Franklin in the Whispers' Strait. But for this, they also paid a high price. Among them, hundreds of knight's armors were damaged, and most of the officers above the lieutenant level were damaged, and ordinary soldiers were countless.

This battle was tragic. In order to prevent the fleet from breaking through, Destiny has used up almost 80% of the supplies. Most of the ordinary crew were killed in the battle, and although the capable people were killed in battle, even strong people at the level also suffered some minor injuries under the fierce artillery fire of the enemy. As for Haiwei's level, she suffered several moderate injuries and one or two serious injuries, and could not continue to fight tomorrow.

Berien was almost miraculously unharmed, and Franklin did his best to protect his turret. Even the giant bombarded several pieces of skin and flesh with a shuttle mechanism to cover Berrien, but Bereen only exhausted his energy and almost lost his strength.

But with the power of one ship, he blocked the enemy fleet for two days. After this battle, I'm afraid that people in the whole Western Continent will know their names.

Only now, Franklin still dares not relax. One more day, as long as you stop the other party for another day, you will complete the zero order. That evening, a fleet of ships from the Sea House were pirates who were not selected to fight on the Devil's Channel. They were assigned to assist Franklin and his entourage. Although the average combat strength of these pirates is low, they also belong to the new force, so some trivial work falls on them, and those who have the ability get more rest time.

After witnessing the miracle of Franklin and other people blocking the Pope's Hall fleet for two days, the pirates who acted as reinforcements were excited and worked hard. So new traps were placed overnight in the river behind Area 3, preparing for the arrival of tomorrow.

When the battle in the Whimspers Strait entered a white-hot stage, four ships in the Devil's Channel finally arrived at the exit before dusk and moored on an isolated island near the exit. As night fell, dense radiation clouds spread across the sky, and then it was different from the old times. Although it is night, there is still a faint red light behind the radiation clouds, like a sea of fire behind the clouds.

Therefore, on the night of the new era, the sky is always dark red. This is a depressing tone, but no one can change this tone. It was once said that if it hadn't been for the existence of radiation clouds, everything on the earth would have become ruins in the flames. This is not a lie. After all, on the day of the catastrophe, the planet's ozone layer has suffered devastating damage. The radiation cloud enveloped the planet like a second layer of protection, so that the deadly cosmic rays did not fall directly on the earth.

Otherwise, this planet would have become a death star, and life could not survive as it is now.

But even so, human beings or other life are still trying to create destruction, pushing the planet into the abyss of death. Ironically, although this is against the will of most creatures, the decision is in the hands of a few people.

The pyramid-shaped power structure of the planet determines that the fate of all sentient beings is only in the hands of the few people at the top of the pyramid.

This is the default rule of the world. Many people are dissatisfied, but no one can break it.

Looking up at the dark red sky, Harbes was speechless for a long time. The black double-breasted robe danced gently with the wind, like a thick ink color. The ink color wrapped around Harbes, and the light in the young leader's eyes did not seem to be as clear as before.

"I can see that the faith in your heart is not so firm." Carlomon's voice sounded behind him, and Harbes smiled and turned around.

The middle-aged man threw a bottle to Harbes, but lost it back for the latter. Harbes shook his head and said, "I don't drink."

"What's the fun of such a rigorous life?" Carlomon sat on the ground and drank wine and said, "There will be a war tomorrow. You have to learn to have fun in time."

"My joy is not based on alcohol." Habeth said lightly and looked into the depths of the roaring bay: "Don't you notice it, Chief Carlomon? Is this bay too calm?

Carolon drank wine and said, "It's normal. The old man Madder took people to kill directly to the Whispers Strait. It's no wonder those pirates didn't intercept them. In this way, isn't it normal for the bay to be calm?

Habeth frowned: "But I remember that Colonel Mader led three complete fleets. With such force, it should have been long before to enter the bay. Why is the pirate's headquarters still so quiet?

"If those legendary captains struggle to intercept, it is not surprising that Madr has not been able to pass through the Strait for the time being. Let alone Hook and Barbarian Mountain, that Cinderella is already very tricky. What I'm more concerned about is how much firepower Madder has attracted from the pirates, and it's better to attract them firmly in the strait, so that we can end the battle in one fell swoop.

Harbes was a little disapproving, and the overly calm roaring bay brought him a trace of uneasiness.

This is an intuition.

At this time, Harbes heard some strange sounds. It was the sound of bubbles coming out of the sea, and the sound came from the sea under the boat.
