Extraordinary Sailing

Chapter 339 The third-tier ship "Stardenburg"!

The luminous dust floating in the bottle was the "dust of evil spirits" that Ivan had never wanted.

However, two months ago, I got a part by chance in the native Yucatan tribe, and it didn't take long for it to appear again.

Even if the New World is rich in various spirit bodies, it shouldn't be so casual, right?

And listening to Nekador's tone, this bottle of "Evil Spirit Dust" seems to also come from that tribe?

"Your Captain, I feel like we are in trouble.

I don’t know why. Some time ago, when our people brought the goods to look for them again, they found that the entire camp of the Yucatan tribe was empty.

Did not even leave us any message, only found this in the longhouse of the tribal leader Apsova.

Because last time you eliminated the bereavement evil spirit "Pocatello", you also got something similar, so I want you to see if there is any clue. "

While talking about Necardo, he is also a little worried, but the Yucatan tribe is related to the supply of a considerable part of its fur trade.

Now that I leave without saying goodbye, how can I continue my fur trade from now on?

Hearing his words, Aiwen didn't go to study the special place of the bottle of "Evil Spirit Dust" at the first time, but lighted up all the hanging wind chimes planted in the captain's room.

Carefully staring at Nicardo's recently haggard face for a while, frowned slightly and asked:

"Mr. Director, have you not been sleeping well lately, and you often hear some inexplicable movements?"

Irving felt a little hairy in his heart, took out a handkerchief and wiped his face, a little unsure:

"It seems to have, I have been feeling a little heavy in my neck recently.

It may be because I was too tired recently, and I encountered this kind of weird thing, and it is normal to have a bad rest.

There are several company employees in my department who are exhausted and even take sick leave.

Not as good as my body! Hahaha..."

Hearing his narration, Irvine had already confirmed his guess.

Suddenly stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers.

Snapped--

Crackling...

Nekado immediately trembles all over, his body crackles as if it has been electrified, and even his hair stands up.

"Captain Ivan, this...what is this...what...ah?"

The numb tongue has not been straightened.

what--!

A harsh and short scream sounded in the captain's room and disappeared instantly.

"It turned out that something was not very clean, but now it's okay.

Give you a piece of advice, don't worry about your fur anymore.

Maybe someone who is more powerful than the bereaved evil spirit "Pocatello" has been to the Yucatan tribe.

It's just a little bit of breath that has this degree, and if you want to pursue it, it might really kill you.

Go to the church and invite a priest of at least the patriarchal level to perform a purification ceremony for everyone who has been to the Yucatan tribe. "

"More terrible... evil spirits?"

Nekaduo, who finally realized what Ivan had just done, couldn't help but shocked.

While his face was whiter, he never dared to mention the word Yucatan tribe anymore.

After several ships completed the material transfer.

Watching the three merchant ships and the worried Nekado hurriedly leave.

Aiwen looked at the bottle of "Evil Dust" exchanged with Nekador with several "silver amulets" in his hand, and he felt that things might be a bit tricky.

In the fur trade, it is not only the East Lentz company that is the beneficiary, but the win-win cooperation between Yucatan and East Lent.

If the Yucatan tribe had repelled the more powerful "evil spirits" and left calmly, they should not have left any information.

Judging from the clues we have now, the situation of the Yucatan tribe is obviously not so good.

but.

This news has no effect on Aiwen for the time being. He has no interest in Yucatan and lacks the motivation to trace the follow-up truth.

Especially now that he has a task, at least it is impossible to get out and do other things until the Potosi Silver Mine decides to belong or he gets orders from the upper level.

The time limit of the "Silver War" is now beyond the control of anyone, including the top figures in various countries who made the decision to "start the fight."

For the time being, I can only silently wish that Necardo could find a new source of goods as soon as possible, or set up his own hunting team like the North West Fur Company.

...

After the last loot deal.

Only a few days have passed since Ivan can study witchcraft leisurely.

The two battleships "Cape Storm" and "Endeavour" that have been swimming near the supply line finally ushered in the first support fleet from other colonies of Hilius.

At the same time, he finally ushered in his biggest challenge, and it was also the first head-on contest with the world's most powerful navy.

"Attention all units! New targets appear, prepare for battle!"

Looking at the aggressive and powerful fleet two hundred kilometers away, after repeated investigations to determine the strength of the opponent, this time they did not choose to retreat.

Although it is impossible to be easy, but after weighing it with the officer on board and the "Endeavor", I think it can be played!

As soldiers in the ascent of the country, they cannot be afraid of war.

And if they can kill or capture this fleet, even if the "Silver War" which is related to the wealth of the sky is defeated, their credit will be hard to obliterate!

Finally, Ivan, who was the commander of the fleet, gave the order:

"Fuck him!"

The New World is a long gourd shape in the north and south poles. The thinnest part in the middle is only less than 700 kilometers. It is called the Isthmus of Barboa and consists of rainforest, mountains, inland seas, and rivers.

But even in the middle of this kind of complicated terrain, there is no way to allow ships to pass, and it is impossible to pass between the east and the west.

However, most of the colonies of Hilius were located on the west coast of the mainland.

Usually, they usually transport the gold and silver produced by the Secret Dragon and New Sirius by sea to the city of Balboa on the side of the Broken Star Sea.

Then use mules and horses to transport them through the tropical jungles of the Isthmus of Barboa, and transport them to Port Dios on the Golden Sea before being transferred back by sea.

Good to say about the goods.

However, if the fleet of ships wants to reach the east coast from the west coast of the New World, they can only pass through the vast sea through Cape Froard at the southernmost point, and detour a little bit close to the coastline of the New World.

Fleet sent from the northernmost part of the Deputy Royal District of New Hillius, and even the nearby Deputy Royal District of New Granada.

In the case of good wind and smooth water, it will take two full months to bypass the entire southern part of the New World and arrive at Fort Navidad in the "Golden Sea".

It is also the naval base of Hilius closest to the Potosi silver mine.

On the contrary, the second closest distance is the farthest actual geographical distance, located in the Deputy King District of La Plata at the southernmost tip of the New World.

Although part of the territory of this colony is on the east coast, it takes about a month for the reinforcements to sail to the "Golden Sea", and another 20 days from the Golden Sea.

So a full month after the start of the blockade from the maritime supply line, Iwen and the others finally ushered in an aid fleet that had traveled across from the Deputy King of La Plata.

In fact, if it weren't for the accidental information leakage of the vanguard, they wouldn't have to mobilize their forces in such a hurry.

After establishing an outpost on Potosí Island, it is possible to calmly deploy military forces, and then unite the forces of the four deputy king districts to crush it in full force.

It is because of the accidental exposure of Silver Island that infinite variables have been added, and this "silver war" has been brought into a stalemate situation.

It also gave Aiwen the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

A group of officers in neat navy uniforms have come to the stern upstairs for a pre-war meeting.

"There is actually a Tier 3 ship of Hilius?

Lord Captain! Conventional combat power is not a big problem.

However, in accordance with the tradition of Hilius, large battleships such as Tier 3 ships are generally equipped with patriarch-class (superior Tier 2) clergy of the Church of Eternal Fire.

At critical moments, priests may also provide various spell countermeasures. We must be careful. "

Boris, who has been fully integrated into the "horn of storm", has the special authority that Ivan has opened for him, and has already used the powerful intelligence capabilities on this ship freely.

The first time I saw the other party, based on my own experience, I had suggested to Aiwen the most likely part of the ambush.

"Okay, I know!"

Did not ask how Boris gained this experience, the frontal battlefield, the camouflaged privateer fleet...There are too many conflicts in the 20 years of service in the New World.

Hearing his advice, Ivan was only eager to try.

Gently rubbed the "oak fruit" on his neck. Of course, the opponent of the spell could only be a spell. The time to verify the results of his research during this period of time has arrived.

In the distance, the Hilius fleet, the flagship "Sternberg".

"Your Captain! Why don't we wait for Navidad Fort's supply fleet to set off together?

Didn’t the frontline send back information that the sea has not been peaceful recently and many small-scale supply fleets have disappeared? "

In the captain's cabin of the "Stellenbosch", the flagship and pilot ship, two officers and a priest wearing a white background and red edging robe sat around the command table looking at the chart on the table.

The priest with wavy curly hair and short beard suddenly asked.

"Master Edmund, please rest assured that there will be no accidents.

The missing ones are supply ships and merchant ships that have little combat effectiveness. The so-called "sea ghosts" are nothing more than ghost tricks performed by Zack or Atlan.

Maybe there are still some unwilling lonely guys behind the scenes.

But any conspiracy and trickery have no meaning in the face of absolute strength. With this three-tier battleship "Stellenbosch", any enemy will only be crushed directly. "

Captain Colonel Stanley looked at the actual highest commander next to him, Colonel Reynolds Class who belonged to the Army, and explained to the servant of "Eternal Fire" very easily.

"And as far as I know, those restless countries have not deployed a few Tier 3 battleships in the entire New World, for fear that the kingdom will not be pleasing to the eye and send their hard-earned homes to the bottom of the sea.

Unless they dispatch a "quasi-legendary" to completely start a national war, no one will be our opponent! "

Although this is a bit proud, they do have the confidence to be proud.

At this time, he had a total of four warships under his command.

They are in the military configuration of the New World, the third-tier battleship that is almost the most powerful under the quasi-legendary-the "Stardenburg", and three fully-armed fifth-tier cruisers.

In particular, the "Stellenbosch" was a large ship with 74 ship-borne artillery, a total of 28 32-pounders, 30 24-pounders, and 16 9-pounders.

With a capacity of 680 people and a displacement of 1,500 tons, it is also the main battleship of the naval battleship. It is the perfect combination of firepower, speed, and cost in this era, and it is the backbone of the battle line.

Different from the intermediate type of the fourth-tier ship, the third-tier ship is a real killer for suppressing sea power, and it is also one of the fundamentals of a country's naval power.

And because of the sea warfare used by Hilius, UU reading www.uukanshu. com's warships are much wider, longer, and larger than other countries, and they have extraordinary stability.

Just like a mobile fortress on the sea, it is condescending during the battle and has unparalleled combat advantages.

If others want to attack them, they must first capture a huge sea fortress.

"What's more, even if there are really some ‘Sea Specters’, isn’t there still you, the servant of ‘Eternal Fire’. I believe that in your flames, any evil will be purified!"

"This is the power of God! Flame protects the world. People standing in the light will never be harmed by evil!"

Edmund folded his hands on his chest and religiously preached the prayers of the "eternal fire" church.

The two officers looked at each other, and at the same time crossed their hands and chanted:

"The flame purifies our soul!"
