Chapter 182 Attack on Hong Kong! A test of the territory!
Although Doug Fry is young, he is quite stingy in his opinion and has his own opinions. Otherwise, Prince Louis would not be generous in sharing opera beauty with him, even if she is just a soccer.
They are different from those old nobles. Their thoughts are settled throughout their lives, and the freezing of three feet is not a day. They are young people, and they are more likely to accept reality and change.
They witnessed the Zhumenadal Islands from an unpopular place, gradually replacing the Port of Amore, where the headquarters of the Levis Trading Company, and becoming a new economic center in the East China Sea. Such an impact is more effective than listening to ten or a hundred sentences of the old man’s lessons.
Because some of the businesses of Levis Trading and Arkham Group are in a competitive relationship, the biggest part is shipping.
Crown Prince Louis wanted to achieve some results because he had worked hard. As a competitor, he had really carefully understood the operation of the Arkham Group in the past two years. Moreover, he was not alone. As a crown prince, there were some talented people around him. From the bottom of his heart, he recognized the operation of the Arkham Group. Although he recognized this method, Levis Trading Company could not think of the Arkham Group, and said that he would transform.
Liszt can do a one-man show in the Arkham Group, but Levis Trading is not possible. Even when Blair Gordon was alive, he couldn't do it, because the internal chamber of commerce of Levis Trading comes from all kingdoms, and they are all well-known families, and no one is afraid of anyone. Even the slightly weaker families are really anxious. There are three pounds of nails on the rotten ship!
"We still have to get some of the goods. Let's talk to him together. He has to give you some face."
Doug Fry put down his bag, wiped his mouth, and said, "Especially the batch of porcelain and silk in the West Sea, we have to eat it. Otherwise, it will cause a great impact on our market."
"Um!"
Prince Louis nodded. Of course, they were not bored and wandering around here. They both represented the interests of their respective forces and were here to discuss things.
Not only the heirs of the Crown Prince Louis and the Doug family, but who is now the businessman who is coming to the recruitment festival is not for the sake of interests?
And now, what attracts the most attention in the territory is a large number of cargoes from Great Shipping and other three seas.
People who go out to trade know that if you want to sell goods at a high price, you must cherish them and be strangers. To increase your reputation, you must have goods that others do not have, that is, the treasure of the store. Now, Arkham Group holds this channel.
Merchants seek profit, but pirates also seek profit.
The East China Sea Pirate Alliance, which was disguised as a merchant ship, encountered the fifth patrol team about three nautical miles away from the coast.
The closer you get to the coast, the more the patrol personnel are, because this area is already in the heart, and he will be serious even if he is unreliable.
Therefore, the members of the patrol team soon realized that these "merchant ships" had too shallow waterlines, unlike merchant ships with heavy loads.
For ship owners, as long as the ship is not sunk, the more goods they transport, the better, and you can earn more in one trip!
Therefore, the waterline of a cargo ship must be deeper than that of an armed ship, and it is much deeper.
Once he had suspicion, there were doubts everywhere. The captain of the patrol team felt something was wrong, but he did not make any statement, but let the fleet go.
As soon as the fleet passed, he immediately fired a red signal flare into the sky.
A red signal flare means there is an enemy situation.
The Coast Defense Self-Defense Force, which was cruising on the coastline, immediately assembled in the direction of the signal flare.
Seeing the signal flare lifted off, Clik and other pirate captains also realized that they had been exposed. But not only did they not be nervous, they excitedly shouted at the crew, tearing off the camouflage, and rushed towards the port of Cocosia City at full speed.
Why not go to the port of Kesha City?
Because the pirates all know that the city of Cocosia, where the headquarters of the Arkham Group is located, is the most prosperous place. Not to mention the gold everywhere, it is almost the same. So which silly pip would go to Kesha City?
As the pirates tore off the camouflage, the ship speed suddenly increased. When the Coast Defense Self-Defense Force assembled, the pirate fleet was less than a mile away from the coast, and people on the port and shore could already see the pirates waving swords and guns on the deck, as well as the dark muzzles.
The pirates immediately had a wave of confrontation with the Coast Defense Self-Defense Force at the sea, with artillery firing and the sound of cannons roaring.
The lighthouse in Kokoxia City sounded an alarm, and all police officers who maintained public order were dispatched to evacuate the crowd and organize tourists to evacuate.
This is not the first time the police department has dealt with such a situation, and the residents in the city are very cooperative. They conduct similar exercises every month, so they basically form conditioned reflexes.
On the contrary, when those foreign tourists heard that the pirates attacked the port, they immediately panicked and were at a loss.
At this time, some of the pirates disguised as tourists and sneaked into the territory in advance revealed their true colors and began to create chaos everywhere in the city.
These pirates were all crew members arranged by Clik himself, led by his combat captain Ajin.
"Go to Got the Gotham Savings Bank!" A Jinren said nothing, and knocked a police officer to death with one blow, and took his men to attack Gotham Savings Bank.
Click asked him to sneak in early, not only to create chaos, but also to gotham savings bank in advance. This is the richest place in the entire Viscount Arkham.
When Ajin came to the door of Gotham Savings Bank, he found that there was a short giant carrying an axe and a team of people wearing bank security uniforms standing at the door.
Why is it called a "dwarf"?
Because compared to the giant's height, he looks one size smaller, but he is much bigger than an ordinary human.
boom!
The short giant put down his axe, and the hard stone floor shattered directly. He said loudly and seriously in a honest tone: "No one can think of passing here! Coluke!"
In the past two years, among the graduates trained by Arkham Academy, there is a guy called "monster". His fame is greater than that of Ivech, the sharpshooter who graduated two classes earlier. After graduation, he was chosen by Gotham Savings Bank and became the "goalkeeper" of Gotham Savings Bank. He is Krooke. It is said that in the graduation assessment, he hit a guy of Aquaman with one punch!
When Ajin saw Krooke, he didn't talk nonsense and took his weapon. Krooke looked at this little guy, just like a flies, and slapped him directly. The slap as big as a dustpan, and a strong wind slapped out on Ajin's body. The terrifying power surged over and over again. Ajin was immediately slapped on the ground, the ground shattered, and a deep pit appeared, and Ajin directly "wow" to spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Let's go here, don't panic!"
On the street, there were not only people from the police department, but also the navy brought by the lieutenant general in the park. Lieutenant Colonel Tina personally led the team to protect the gathered tourists.
After seeing the expenses he brought to him for only half a day, Naoyuan decisively accepted Liszt's employment.
What's more, as Liszt said, this is the job of the Navy. No matter what, they will not let the pirates cause harm.
"Fufufufu, is it really okay? Only Lieutenant General of the Garden, are you going to deal with those pirates if you don't take action?"
In a tavern, the lieutenant general only stared at Doflamingo, which was also one of the employment agreements between her and Liszt.
I borrowed only the lieutenant general in the garden to limit Doflamingo. This guy really wants to cause trouble and his destructive power is too strong.
"Or, what's your relationship with that Bat Boy? I'm really curious. How could he command a lieutenant general?" Doflamingo asked while drinking juice.
Faced with Doflamingo's temptation, Ziyuan's face was calm. She knew very well that at present, the most threatening of the Viscount Arkham was Doflamingo. This guy had a precedent for destroying the town. Therefore, she could ignore the little pirates in the East China Sea, but would not ignore Doflamingo, one of the Seven Warlords.
"Fufufufu! But this is also an opportunity. Look at the ability of that bat boy. You think so too, just Lieutenant General?" Doflamingo asked casually.
The lord's mansion is built with a high terrain, standing on the top balcony at the highest point, overlooking the two cities.
Liszt was standing on the balcony at this time, looking at the naval battle at Cocoxia Harbour.
With the fog's intelligence ability, Liszt had long known that Clik had gathered pirates, and he even had his own spies within the Pirate Alliance, but he didn't say anything from beginning to end.
If a child wants to grow up, he must go through some storms and keep him in a greenhouse. No matter how beautiful or brilliant he is, he cannot withstand the trouble, it will be useless.
Lister has set up a shelves and platforms for the territory, group, and has gone through a period of development. Now, it is time to achieve some results.
It's a mule or a horse, so you have to pull it out, right?
Otherwise, who knows if those big investments are right?
Therefore, this pirate alliance surprise attack was an assessment of the territory and group. Liszt wanted to see how far the people under his command could do without taking action, and whether they could stand up the flag in the East China Sea based on themselves.
A force is like a pyramid. It is definitely not good to rely on the person standing at the top. Its foundation is not solid and unreliable. No matter how high a person stands, it is still a cloud, because a person's energy is limited.
Liszt knew very well that it was a fool to shake the world by himself. He needed a group of helpers, and some of these helpers needed to be slowly searched for and absorbed, and some had to be cultivated by themselves.
Assessment like this will obviously bleed, sacrifices, and losses. It can be said that this is a very ruthless decision, but from the perspective of long-term interests, it is necessary and beneficial to the development of the entire territory.
Lister can still afford the damage and losses caused by these pirates.
As for the innocent people who died because of this, Liszt could only say sorry, but would not be sad for it.
