Chapter 184

There are only Elvin and Milan in the captain's room.

A chart was spread out on the desk between the two.

The paper and graphics of nautical charts are very new. You can see that they are the latest high-end products. On the soft paper, the country, shore shape, islands, reefs, water depth, navigation aids, lighthouses, supply points, habitats of dangerous marine life, etc. are clearly marked.

Moreover, the scope of this nautical chart is unexpectedly large, including the entire "tulip alliance" coastal trade routes and more than a dozen commonly used ocean routes, including even Elvin's most eye-catching route to the new world.

Compared with the one Elvin received from Fleet Command before departure, the scope is much broader and more detailed.

As a qualified naval captain, Elvin certainly knows the goods. This nautical chart is not the goods on the main road. It may even belong to the special collection that the lieutenant general doesn't know where to get it.

Well, the most important thing is that it's very valuable, and the level of confidentiality must be very high...

Milan didn't realize Elvin's strange vision, and they had already taken the role of a navigator. They focused all their attention on the nautical chart, sliding their fingers on the chart and said to themselves:

"at the current speed of the conch, we can reach the shell channel in three days After that is the open sea area in the vague sense.

I do not suggest that we continue to hunt big pirates who can roam in the open sea. Apart from too many uncontrollable risks, our "conch" is just a class 6 ship, which can't adapt to the changeable weather and sky conditions in the open sea.

Unless a naval fleet is formed to perform its duties, a ship will rush in rashly, and the fault tolerance rate is too low. As long as there is a little accident, we will be buried in the sea. "

Around the chart, two people are planning their next journey. Because it's a hunting mission for vicious pirates, the choice of target and route is particularly important.

At this time, there was no so-called difference between the captain and the navigator, between the superior and the subordinate. They were all treated seriously and expressed their opinions frankly.

"Well, I agree with you. Although I have learned how to deal with the complicated sea conditions in the Naval Academy, our main members are still recruits after all. In addition, it is irresponsible for all of us that our class 6 ships go to the open sea directly.

But even if you don't go to the open sea, there are articles you can do in the offshore area.

More than ten days have passed since the "Moby Dick Massacre". Let's think about the possible future trend of pirates who have gained a lot of wealth... "

as early as before departure, even before Milan joined, Elvin actually had an overall plan. Now the arrival of Milan has added an insurance for the smooth progress of the plan. At this time, of course, he will not hide it from him.

"You mean... Neutral port?"

Milan understood Elvin in a flash.

Although pirates are chasing treasure in their bones, they are also insulated from treasure. They are destined to be unable to return to the civilized world, but they don't have the concept of saving money. It's normal to have fun in time.

No matter how much wealth you have, you will squander it in a short time, at least for the vast majority of pirates.

However, although the ports of civilized countries are colorful and can meet all their needs, the risks are too great for pirates.

Fortunately, different countries and forces have different attitudes towards pirates. In addition to the tulip alliance, which has been mercilessly killed by the "goddess of royalty and navigation", there are also many neutral ports of different sizes scattered on the east coast of the Black Sea, allowing pirates to dock.

That's where the pirates sell their gold, and it's also a cornucopia of neutral forces!

Of course, apart from neutral ports, there are many private ports all over the sea. I don't know where there are many private ports, but no one can tell.

Seeing Milan's expression, Elvin smiles a little. The smart man really doesn't have to waste a lot of words. Then he reaches out his hand and points it on the nautical chart. Milan looked through his fingertips and suddenly saw: "attilan, the largest neutral port city on the east coast!"

Wake up by Elvin's words, and understand Elvin's original intention with Milan's wisdom.

"It turns out that the route you chose at the beginning was purposeful!

According to the calculation of this time, from the "beluga harbor" in the south of iliyah to "attilan", our position is almost the only way for them to travel in a straight line. As long as they do not go around the open sea, or they intend to go around a big circle, there is a high probability that they will pass through this sea area.

Plus your seabird detection, within 50 kilometers, they may not have noticed that they will bump into your muzzle. Even without me, the conch could not have achieved nothing.

You are really insidious

Elvin deliberately put his face on the line:

"what is insidious? Is it wisdom?

A total of more than 200 pirate ships, all made a lot of money in Moby Dick port, even if not many choose to go to attilan to spend their time and drink, but it is absolutely impossible not to have. It's better to wait here than to search the sea aimlessly.With your divination skills, it's much easier for us to predict when pirates will pass by than to predict the specific location of specific pirates.

If you think about it, those pirates are carrying a bag full of treasure and singing songs. They want to spend a lot of time and have a good look. Suddenly they are robbed by horse bandits... Cough... Suddenly they bump into us. Isn't it a big surprise? "

"I only see your bad taste, but I agree with the plan." Milan gave Elvin a strange look and always felt that there was something hidden in it that they could not understand.

However, he didn't care too much and put forward his own suggestions instead.

"I've just boarded the ship, and I don't know much about the conch, especially about your means.

Let's sort out the strength of our side in advance. When I am divining, I will make a comparison of the strength. If we encounter the existence that we can't afford, we'd better avoid it for a while. "

pure crystal ball (necessary prop of crystal ball divination) ...

it is worth mentioning that Milan's "prophecy school" has gained more pure spiritual power after abandoning most of its offensive casting abilities, and has made great achievements in early warning, detection, soul and curse of doom.

They are the only formal knights with extraordinary power on the ship. Under them, Gary the boatswain and Vader the sailor are the most powerful. Others, including captains, officers and all soldiers, are either old or not yet grown up, and can only be used as conventional combat forces.

In addition to the personnel on board, the most important measure of combat effectiveness of a warship is the number of Shipborne guns.

Whether it is copper gun or iron gun, it is the embodiment of a country's financial and technical level. Even many scholars in this era often measure their naval strength by the number of guns of a country.

However, as a class 6 ship, "conch" has only 20 shipborne guns (until the end of the era of great navigation, all shipborne guns are only smooth bore guns).

Firepower is far from powerful, so in the face of pirates, in addition to the necessary armed forces, we also need a little... Wisdom!
