Chapter 866 Upheaval

Nightmare Sea, Black Hu Sea Territory.

The core of this sea area is where Heihu Island is located, the base camp of Blackbeard.

Since the military parade, Insman's Iron Armada immediately pressed against the Sea of ​​​​Nightmare with the momentum of Mount Tai.

At this time, Insman was still the most powerful country at sea, relying entirely on his strength to head-to-head, and wantonly wiped out the pirate forces in the Nightmare Sea.

The main force of the Invincible Fleet is a new type of steam ironclad battleship, the number of which exceeds 30. In the initial trial, it directly defeated the joint efforts of the five sea generals under Blackbeard.

After this sea battle, three of Blackbeard's five confidantes died, and Heisuo, who liked to skin himself, was blasted to pieces by giant cannons on the spot.

Counting afterwards, Insman's side sank three first-class battleships, seven second-class battleships, and sixteen third-class battleships of the five generals, and countless other small boats and prisoners.

As soon as the large steam ironclad ship appeared, it used this shocking strength to announce its existence to the world!

Any savvy maritime merchant and country will immediately understand that the maritime situation will undergo tremendous changes from now on.

While the main force was advancing on Heihu Island, Insman even had enough energy to form several other huge fleets, and under the leadership of various royal pirates, they went straight to those pirate ports and free ports.

Even if the main force wants to fight against Blackbeard, Insman has a great career. Each of the fleets sent has a first-class battleship, and the ordinary pirate group is not an opponent at all.

For a moment, the whole nightmare was turbulent, and many well-known pirates were arrested and hanged on the mast.

And the pirate port, which was prosperous and lively in the past, has also fallen into a dead silence.

Within the scope of the Nightmare Sea, only Insman's flag was unfurled at this moment.

Some lucky ones who were lucky enough to get back a little life either gathered with Blackbeard’s main force and prepared to have a final fight with those Insmans, or they were completely disheartened and prepared to leave the Sea of ​​​​Nightmare and enter the depths of the golden route .

"Hurry up, we have to arrive before the final battle!"

On a first-class battleship, Orlando was wearing a tuxedo and a wig, holding a telescope and looking at the distant sky.

"Report! According to the latest news, Captain Huchak has led his fleet to defeat the Red Rose Pirates and hang the pirate leader to death!"

"Captain Dodoro has also sent news that he has conquered Green Chambord Island and controlled all the ports and shipyards there..."

...

Behind him, all kinds of news came in a steady stream.

"map!"

Orlando pondered for a while, and immediately spread out the sea chart of the Nightmare Sea, and moved his fingers: "This is Heihu Island. The main force of the Iron Fleet has been here, restraining the main force of Blackbeard! This time, the Insman Kingdom really made a move. Good chess!"

When the main forces of the two sides were entangled, Insman relied on his rich capital and used a group of subdued pirate captains as pioneers to attack all parts of the Nightmare Sea and wipe out the pirate forces.

And after pulling out those nails, all the fleets will converge towards the center again, and finally converge on Heihu Island to form a large net with only one target——the pirate governor of the Nightmare Sea, Blackbeard!

This is an aboveboard conspiracy. Even if it is seen through, there is no hope of breaking the situation, because there is an absolute gap in strength.

Insman can send partial divisions to attack everywhere when the main force is entangled, but Blackbeard can't.

After all, his biggest force other than his own fleet, that is, his five sea generals, were disabled as early as the beginning of the war.

It can be said that at this time, it has fallen into a deadlock!

"A textbook battle!"

Even Orlando, after the replay, only admired Insman's planner.

"Of course... it's only this time... After Blackbeard is disabled or eliminated, the remaining pirate governors will definitely unite and even elect a pirate king! Let's continue to compete with Insman!"

Orlando thought silently.

In fact, Blackbeard was also unlucky. He met Insman's first appearance of a new warship and went all out.

Before that, the pirate governors didn't know Insman's strength, and they could barely watch the show, and maybe they still had a little idea of ​​using Blackbeard to test it.

This gave Insman a strategic initiative.

Compared with other sea areas without oil and water, the Nightmare Sea on Blackbeard's side is naturally the most worthy of a big war.

But after this time, there is no such good thing.

"Actually...the pirate governors should have reacted now, but unfortunately, it was too late...Edward, the pirate prince of the Golden Sea, had this plan, and he was the only one who could rush to reinforce before the decisive battle, but Insman actually drove The ghost ship... Even using such a bloody method is enough to show that they are imperative this time! The determination is so great! Blackbeard must kill the flag!"

The Insman Kingdom certainly doesn't have a way to effectively drive ghost ships.

But the means they used were very primitive and bloody.

Because it is the largest island country in the world, the number of merchant ships and supply points of Insman is also the first in the world.

Occasionally, there will always be one or two places where there are clues of ghost ships.

And in order to lure the ghost ships, blood sacrifices are naturally needed-use merchant ships full of sacrifices that can satisfy the killing desires of the undead, similar to fishing and baiting, to attract them to the desired location.

As far as Orlando knows, in order to lead the ghost ship to the golden sea this time, Insman lost no less than 100 merchant ships and nearly 10,000 slaves and sailors of all kinds!

There is no doubt that this is a large sum that even some countries are difficult to come up with.

However, after paying such a huge price, the results are also very rich.

The prestige of the ghost ship not only caused turmoil in the Golden Sea, but even the pirate prince was severely injured after fighting the ghost ship, and had to give up his plan to aid Blackbeard.

At this time, in the entire Nightmare Sea, there was no longer any force that could assist Blackbeard. The Nightmare Sea pirate governor, the head of the Blackbeard Pirates, seemed to be at the end of his rope.

Of course, as far as Blackbeard is concerned at this time, it is not difficult to escape alone, even driving the monster.

However, if you leave the Nightmare Sea, without the foundation, territory, and source of troops here... then the former pirate governor will really become a disgraced pirate captain.

For some pirates, it is better to kill him.

Moreover, in a naval battle, anything could happen, and Blackbeard would definitely gamble hard.

"I heard... all the pirates in the Nightmare Sea who are still preparing to fight have gathered on Heihu Island... Trickster Luo Qi, this guy is running too fast and has already escaped into the Golden Sea, but don't worry... even if the royal family The fleet needs to rest, and those of us privateer captains must also be dispatched, as pioneers to open the way, there is always a chance!"

Orlando stepped on the deck, looking very satisfied.

This one is the absolute main force of the Navy's previous sailing era. It is a first-class battleship: it has three decks, is equipped with more than 200 guns, has a displacement of 3,000 tons, and has a crew of more than 1,000 people. With various blessings , can run out of the limit speed of 20 knots, it is a well-deserved sea fortress.

If it was the previous octopus pirate group, with such a flagship, I am afraid that I would wake up from my dream with laughter.

But at this time, Orlando just used the wealth accumulated from previous plunders to buy it from the navy at a low price.

"This time following the Royal Navy, the benefits are very lucrative... The next step, the steam ironclad dare not think about it, but it's time to prepare an extraordinary ship for yourself!"

Orlando thought silently.

The steam battleship is indeed a country's most important weapon, but in the hands of individuals, it seems a bit bulky.

The most important point is that even if the navy gave him one, he didn't have enough trained sailors and a new repair shop!

In other words, even if the navy sends a steamship, ordinary pirates may not be able to use it, and they will definitely be completely tied to Insman's chariot, because the logistics are completely controlled by the opponent! Unless... build a whole set of industrial supporting system to adapt.

The smart Orlando has long noticed that although this model is good, it is not something he can afford.

What really suits him is still the first choice of all great pirates.

"It's a pity... I didn't meet the big businessman Sissel Formosa this time, and I like his Mermaid very much..."

It seems that because of capturing his thoughts, the originally silent pirate system also jumped out, and the task box popped up:

"Ding, you triggered the mission - the big pirate!"

"Mission description: You who aspire to become a great pirate, how can you not have an extraordinary ship that fits your status and status? Within three months, capture the Mermaid! That's right, that diving ship! Catch another big octopus, The system will give an additional title [Deep Sea Hades]!"

"Mission reward: 2000 experience!"

...

"Why do you need the Mermaid?"

Of course, Orlando would not understand the deep malice from the system, but was very puzzled: "And...you want me to contract another big octopus..."

"Could it be... this pirate system, or is it based on my own ideas to formulate tasks? What does it have to do with the dream soldier master?"

He was completely confused, looking at his attribute bar:

"Name: Orlando

...

"Boss! We have arrived at the predetermined location, and the Heihu sea area is ahead!"

At this time, a pirate on the observation deck yelled.
