Chapter 589 The Battle of the Nubari Islands

 

In the process of reducing and withdrawing eight Hicks Returning Divisions, some officers and soldiers did not want Retreat to continue to join the army, and the Autonomous Regional Command had already made a preliminary plan. In fact, the Overseas Dominion has just added more than 3.8 million Hicks immigrants, so adding a Hicks Legion can also stabilize the psychological activities and emotional changes of those new Hicks immigrants, let them understand that the Overseas Dominion is not at all They look at it as an outsider …

 

So Claude handed over the volunteer Legion’s quota to the eight Hicks Homecoming Divisions, allowing Derwick General to select the most elite 90,000 horses from these 300,000 Hicks officers and men. Form this volunteer Legion. As for the weapon configuration and so on, they are all the same as Thunderbolt, and Rock Legion is on par. For example, the weapon has been replaced with a new rifle instead of a Verberon firearm.

 

Now that the families and relatives of these Hicks officers and soldiers have emigrated to the Overseas Dominion, Claude naturally no longer has to worry about these Hicks officers and soldiers rebelling. Therefore, in terms of weapons and equipment and salary benefits are equal to Thunderbolt, Rock Legion, to show equal treatment. However, the volunteer Legion officers and soldiers who have just replaced the new rifle also have to conduct shooting training to master the shooting skills of the new rifle and avoid unnecessary waste of bullets.

 

Of course, this Hicks volunteer Legion is not useful at this time. Only four return home divisions are returned this time, and there are four return home divisions waiting for the last fleet of immigration transportation fleet. The autonomous region has decided that the future battlefield of the Hicks Volunteer Legion will be in the colonies of the West Coast countries. Even after the war ends, the Hicks Volunteer Legion will be scattered in the rented seaport cities on the West Coast, guard the place, and safeguard the interests of the Overseas Dominion.

 

holy light On August 17, 607, the Pamigar National Republic, loaned to Port Flimz in the Autonomous Command. Today the port arrived again with a cruise squad consisting of six iron armored battleships. According to the agreement reached between the autonomous region and the high-level Pamigarians, the six iron armored battleships arriving this time may be more suitable as teaching teams. It was the First Steps taken by the Pamigarans to build their own navy.

 

The Dominion Navy will teach the Pamigarans how to control the six iron armored battleships. After the half-year internship period ends, the six iron armored battleships will be transferred to the Pamigaran National Republic and they will form Pamigarh. Man’s First Navy Cruise Sub-Fleet. It can be argued that the autonomous region has spared no effort in supporting the Pamigar.

 

Ten days later, the six naval officers and soldiers on the six armored battleships got along very well with the Pamigarans who had learned from them, and they had a good relationship. It happened that the birthday of one of the captain of the battleship and the two Pamigar students were on the same day, so everyone decided to hold a grand birthday party to celebrate the three people’s birthday.

 

Because there are a lot of young, beautiful and enthusiastic Pamigar women at that aphrodisiac, and the banquet, this birthday celebration party continued to be carnival for one night, until all officers and men of the 2nd day were sober. And come back. When a naval sergeant inadvertently looked towards the berth where the six iron armored battleships were parked, he startedled and screamed, “Where is our battleship? Where did the battleship go?”

 

Six iron armored battleships were missing, and all naval officers and Pamigar students were detained, not even those Pamigar women who attended the banquet. At the beginning, the senior officials of the Pamigaran National Republic thought that the officers and men of the autonomous navy were guarding theft. They were reluctant to transfer the six iron armored battleships to the Pamigarans, and only then did this farce.

 

But as the investigation progressed, especially the confessions of the young Palmigal women who attended the birthday party, and one after another list of naval officers and soldiers who had relationships with them that night, it could be concluded that the six iron armors All the officers and men on the battleship attended the birthday party, and they all had sufficient evidence to prove that the witnesses were the young Palmigal women.

 

But if these naval officers and men did not do it, how could the six iron armored battleships disappear? Those Pamigar students have only just learned a few days and are unable to operate and control the six iron armored battleships alone. Because of this, the naval officers and soldiers on the battleship were so arrogant. Even the sentries on the ship were not arranged. Everyone rushed to the birthday party. They all think that no one can operate the six iron armored battleships, and that this is the seaport base leased by the autonomous region, and security can be guaranteed.

 

As a result, under such circumstances, the six iron armored battleships were so unknown that they were lost. The investigating officer sent by the autonomous region finally found an eyewitness. It was an old Pamigal sailor who got up at midnight to bait and prepared to fish for seafood and sell it to the tavern in the morning for a little money. He said that in the middle of the night, indeed, the six iron armored battleships were slowly moving out of the harbor, as if there was no engine and no rumbling sound was heard …

 

The old Pamigar sailor didn’t care, he thought it was training at night. Moonlight was very bright at that time, and he could see clearly that there were many silhouettes moving on the six iron armored battleships. It is for this reason that he believes that this is the normal night training of the armored battleship. The fundamental didn’t expect that six armored battleships were hijacked and left the harbor.

 

The officers sent by the autonomous region to investigate became more and more puzzled. Obviously, the six iron armored battleships will not disappear for no reason. It is only naval officers and soldiers that can control the six iron armored battleships, not the Pamigarians. But the Dominion Navy vowed to do it, and who did it? No one else will be able to control the armorship! The Wang Family navy would control these six iron armored battleships, but do they have the courage to come to the Nubissia mainland?

 

This disappearance of the armored battleship was included in one of the ten most mysterious cases. Until three months later, the fleet of the Blacksail pirates and a sail fleet of the Fux Islands United Kingdom met in the Sea Territory of the Nubari Islands. The Blacksail pirates rejected the Fux Islands United Kingdom sails fleet asking them to stop sailing and anchor for inspection. , Both sides began to prepare for battle.

 

As the battleship queues of the sails outside the Black Sail Pirate flashed out, suddenly the twelve iron armored battleships rushed out into the battle array set by the sail fleet of the United Kingdom and the Kingdom of Fux Islands. All battleships. The sailing fleet of the Fux Islands and Kingdom was in chaos. They were pleasantly surprised to find the culprit who attacked the shipbuilding base of the Mount Vedes Mountain Harbour. They were disappointed that they couldn’t help the twelve ironclad battleships of the Blacksail Pirates …

 

This naval battle in the Sea Territory of the Nubari Islands ended with the Fux Islands and Kingdom losing nearly half of the sail battleship. In fact, the loss of the black sail pirates was also very large. Twelve ironclad battleships were scarred. In the follow-up, more than forty sailing ships and battleships, which also rushed into battle, also lost nearly twenty.

 

However, compared to the loss of the sail fleet of the Fux Islands United Kingdom, which has 108 ocean sailing battleships and armed sea vessels, it was necessary to withdraw Retreat to the battlefield, making the winner of this naval battle a black sail pirate. Commander Eriksson of the Blacksail Pirates has been complimented by other pirate forces as the king of pirates, and can even claim to be Grandpa Nubari.

 

Grand Duke Nubari, in the Territory of the Nubari Islands, the archipelago known as the pirate paradise, means the most powerful pirate group. His little triangle banner can even order all the pirate gangs in this Sea Territory to follow his will. Or you can think that the Grandpa Nubari in the mouth of the pirate is just a legend spread by the people. In fact, not at all what pirates willingly obey the orders of other pirate groups.

 

Eriksson’s mind is quite clear on this point. Although he defeated the regular naval establishment of the Fux Islands United Kingdom and a powerful sail fleet, it also revealed that the black sail pirates attacked the Fux Islands United Kingdom. The secret mastermind of the shipbuilding base colony, and the planners to capture the six Dominion battleships of the Overseas Dominion Navy. Continue to stay in the Sea Territory of the Nubari Islands. That is a bargain, waiting for the enemy to come to the door and settle accounts with themselves …

 

So Eriksson’s black sail pirate fleet suddenly left the Sea Territory of the Nubari Islands on a night without Moonlight, and disappeared in front of one’s eyes of other pirate groups without disappear without a trace. After the Fux Islands and Kingdom ’s other sailing fleet aggressively ran to the Sea Territory of the Nubari Islands, they discovered that the whereabouts of the Black Sail Pirates could not be found.

 

The Special Envoy of the Fux Islands and Kingdom arrived at Lanhu City, met Claude and Beechklin General, and informed the results of their battle on the sides of the Kingdom ’s sailing fleet and Blacksail Pirates. Let the autonomous region understand the reason for the disappearance of their six iron armored battleship mysterious, and also confirm that the black sail pirates have mastered the iron armored battleship repair and modification technology.

 

This is to blame when the Fux Islands united Kingdom. When their Weiders Hill harbour shipbuilding base was attacked, technical atlases, atlases, hulls of six ironclad battleships, and more than ten Technologists and rune mage fell into the hands of Blacksail Pirates. It can be inferred from the fact that the black sail pirates can top secretly drive away the six iron armored battleships in the autonomous region. The black sail pirates understand and master the iron armored battleships …

 

And the naval battle of the Sea Territory in the Nubari Islands has made all onlookers of pirates and merchants understand that the future must be the world of ironclad battleship. The Fux Islands unites a sailing fleet of Kingdom with 108 sailships and armed sea vessels of varying sizes. The Blacksail Pirate only has more than forty sailboats and armed sea ships, and twelve ironclad battleships.

 

It is just that no one can think of the result of the battle between the two sides, but the sail fleet of the Fux Islands and the Kingdom lost nearly half of the loss of the battlefield. Continuing the battle, even if it caused more serious casualties to the Black Sail Pirates, but the Sail Fleet would be wiped out.

 

The Black Sail Pirates lost eighteen sail battleships and armed sea vessels. The twelve iron armored battleships they owned were also scarred, but they still had battle strength. Not to mention, in this naval battle, the sailship battleship destroyed by the twelve iron armored battleships smashed and bombarded by more than forty ships. The fleet commander of the Fux Islands and Kingdom determined that there was no way to take these twelve armored battleships, and they had to order to evacuate the battlefield to admit defeat …

 

No one can find the whereabouts of the black sail pirates now, but everyone knows that when the black sail pirates reappear, they will still take twelve iron armor battleship show off one’s military strength without any pirate group and The navies of the West Coast colonial nations would be their opponents. The Fux Islands United Kingdom’s special envoy hoped that the Dominion Territory would use the Navy’s Iron Armored Fleet to hunt down Blacksail Pirates, but this request was rejected by the Dominion.

 

Claude told the Fux Islands United Kingdom’s special envoy with a bitter smile that if the Black Sail Pirate happens to meet on the ocean, the Dominion Navy ’s Iron Armored Fleet will definitely launch a war against the Black Sail Pirate and will not let go of any of their Iron Armor battleship . However, the Iron Armored Fleet was sent to the Sea Territory, a colony on the west coast, to hunt down Blacksail Pirates. I’m sorry, the Dominion Navy did not have the spare time to play hide-and-seek games with Blacksail Pirates …

 

It can be seen from the map that the main task of the Dominion Navy ’s Iron Armored Fleet is to maintain the safety of the maritime channel of the ocean transport fleet between the two continents. Like the Overseas Dominion Sea Territory, the Northern Section Bay Sea Territory of Kanas Prairie, and two Sea Territory leased seaport cities for security. Although there are iron armored cruise fleets, they are more guarded than attacked … [ 19459002]
 

The armored battleship is indeed powerful, but the maintenance cost and cost are also high. The Dominion Navy has a total of nearly 60 iron armored battleships, which is already the maximum limit for the use of naval funds that can be maintained by the Dominion Military District. The increase in the amount of iron armored battleships will not be enough. So under the current circumstances, even if it is known that the Blacksail Pirates are the mysterious black hands that took away the six iron armored battleships, the Iron Armed Forces of the Dominion Navy have no time and energy to trouble them.

 

Sixty ironclad battleships of the Dominion Navy are clearly visible on the chart. First, the Overseas Dominion Sea Territory requires two six ironclad battleship patrol units to patrol back and forth to maintain the safety of the Sea Territory. Followed by Northern Section Bay, there are also two small team rotation cruises. The two leased seaport cities each have a platoon of six ironclad battleships.

 

In this way, there are already 36 iron armored battleships in the sixty armored battleships owned by the Dominion Navy. The remaining 24 armored fleets of armored battleships are required to maintain ocean freight fleets consisting of more than 300 sailing ships, and the safety of ocean trade transportation between the two continents … [19459002 ]
 

The Special Envoy of the Fux Islands United Kingdom found that the Autonomous Territory did not deploy the Iron Armored Fleet to hunt down the black pirates, and was not discouraged. Instead, he proposed a proposal, hoping that the Autonomous Territory could build a batch of Iron Armor battleships for the Fux Islands United Kingdom. This business can be done, Claude smiled and quoted a high price of 300,000 kronor an iron armored battleship.

 

The envoy was shocked and asked why the price was so high. Claude explained that the price he quoted was for the second-generation iron armored battleship, not the first. The cost of the first generation of armored battleships is only half that of the second generation, but the combat effectiveness is really low, and it is already a eliminated species. The shipbuilding workshops of the autonomous region no longer accept the customization of the first generation of armored battleships …

 

The envoy doubtfully took the parameters of the second-generation armored destroyer and armored cruiser, as well as the armored transport carrier. He was unable to decide by himself, and needed to contact their high-level King. It seems that it will take some time to get the Fux Islands. A reply from United Kingdom whether to purchase a custom iron armored battleship from the Dominion.

 

The Dominion Council hopes to develop the port of Wibator into another heavy industry base to drive the economic development of the surrounding states. And the port state of Wibator is adjacent to the Rocky Mountain State, which can obtain abundant mineral resources. Therefore, when choosing the method to drive the economic revival of Port Vibatuo City, the first and second generation of armored battleships that have been eliminated by the autonomous region have entered the eyes of the Executive Committee. Attentive members of the parliament have set up several shipbuilding workshops and spread their stalls in the port of Wibator. After all, the main products here are the first and second generation iron armor battleships …

 

Claude does not oppose that lawmakers earn money by buying and selling the first generation of armored battleships and the second generation of armored battleships. The problem is that they must be created and sold. If you can, the cost of selling a second-generation armored battleship can be used to build a fourth-generation armored battleship. With such a high profit, how could Claude and the senior officers of the Autonomous Territory command against it? The only difficulty is where to find such a rich man …

 

The twelve ironclad battleships of the Blacksail Pirates are now moored in a remote shipbuilding workshop in the port of Wibator, which Borkal General contacted for Eriksson. In addition to repairing the twelve generations of iron armored battleships, the shipbuilding workshop owner took a big job of Eriksson, which was to choose Ericson from the pirate fleet at a budget price of 50,000 kronor per battleship. Out of the sixteen fast three-masted sailship battleships, a thick copper skin was wrapped, and the previous generation of marine steam-powered machinery was retrofitted in the bilge …
