Codex Pirates

Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty

Dampier didn't take it seriously, took the wine glass from William, got up and poured another glass of whiskey: "You have been out of prison for so long, why didn't you take the time to have a drink."

"This is not a question that a smart person like you should ask." William also went to pour a glass of wine by himself, "You said that I just ran to the slums to maintain order and prevent riots, and when I was in close contact with civilians , Is it better to have a sloppy face and a slovenly appearance, or is it better to be well-dressed and smell of alcohol?"

Dampier didn't care about William's ridicule, raised his glass to him, and praised him sincerely: "You are always so cautious."

"The people below can be careless, but we can't." William didn't drink the wine directly this time, took a sip, and savored carefully, "So, how is the situation in the windless belt now? Is there anything unusual? ?”

Dampier said confidently: "Don't worry, the traps have been set up, just wait for the prey to come to your door."

...

That night, William and the others left by boat, and they also took away the garrison who had defected together this time, as well as the captured navy.

William kept looking at the distant port, and Ajin asked calmly beside him: "Where shall we go next, first hide in the windless belt to avoid the wind?"

William withdrew his gaze from the port, glanced at Ajin, and then looked at the sea in the distance. Instead of answering directly, he laughed and said, "I guess Garp and the others must be rushing back, so why rush back to Wukong?" What about the wind belt?"

William and Akin were talking on the boat, and in Kalmar City, because the people who maintained order in the city on weekdays had left, and there were a lot of civilians gathered in the port, the city's law and order was very poor at this time, and there was almost no one in the city. When paying attention, a group of men armed with weapons took the opportunity to sneak into the aristocratic area. Those local aristocrats who had escaped by chance encountered another group of thugs before recovering from the massacre during the day.

When Karp finally returned to the city from the bridge kingdom "Tecla Wolf" with Lieutenant Generals Stolberg and Dauberman, the originally prosperous aristocratic district had already taken shape. Ghost Domain, what they are facing is a disorderly city where the old and new rulers have disappeared.

It was difficult for the lieutenant generals to suppress their anger, even Karp, who seemed to be the most nervous at first.

And it's not just because of the situation they're currently facing.

After Garp and the others arrived at the bridge kingdom "Tecchila Wolfe", they waited in full force, but here, except for arresting the third-rate pirates who were fooled by Dampier and foolishly cast themselves into the net, they never met again. To any important cadre of the Morgan Group.

They patrolled the sea area near the bridge for a long time, waiting for the Morgan Pirates, which was impossible to appear, but what they finally waited for was the news of the chaos in Kalmar City.

On the way, they also learned of the news of the live broadcast. Smoker and Dalmesia, a lieutenant general and a lieutenant colonel, were severely injured by William, and all this happened in front of the eyes of the people in the East China Sea. , be considered lost.

"So, Lieutenant Colonel T. Penn died, Lieutenant Colonel Smoker and Lieutenant General Dalmesia were captured, and Major Arkin rebelled? None of our commanders who remained in Kalmar City were spared?" Pu laughed back in anger, and asked a navy soldier in front of him.

Before William left, he searched for the navy soldiers, deliberately left some fish that slipped through the net, and passed information to Garp and others.

The navy soldier may have rarely seen Garp really angry, so he lowered his head in fear and answered in a low voice.

Lieutenant General Stoloberg squinted his eyes and asked in a concentrated voice: "How did they come to Kalmar City so quickly? And when they gathered, we didn't receive any news."

The steamship is William's top secret. Although this matter will be made public sooner or later with the promotion of the steamship, William hopes that this "secret weapon" can play an unexpected role before the world knows about it. For this reason, he even Before the arrival of the navy, Hongye Village and the staff involved in the manufacture of the steamship were evacuated. Earlier, the Four Seas Trading Company and the Fifth Business Office had already started spreading rumors and false information around the East China Sea.

Not to mention that Karp and the others came to the East China Sea, because they acted smoothly at the beginning and directly arrested William, they were a little slack and didn't do too much investigation, even if they were able to investigate the steamship with foresight from the very beginning. It will take some time to understand the truth about things, and Stoloberg's doubts are quite normal.

"They are traveling on a black ship. There is no sail on the deck, only tall chimneys." The navy soldier said with gestures.

Early steamships were often painted black because the steam engines at that time were relatively primitive, and the black smoke and dust from the chimney would look dirty once it fell on the hull, and the asphalt and other anti-corrosion coatings on the hull were also black. , so I chose to paint the ships black, which saves trouble and looks very deterrent.

William's current steamship is also in a similar situation, and someone like William, whose methods and means are easy to use, must choose to follow suit, and blacking out the hull is another matter of deterrence, but it must be very conspicuous That's right, so almost all navies, as long as they have been to the port and seen the ships that William and his group were on at that time, they will be deeply impressed.

"Steamboat!?"

The three lieutenant generals Karp, Stolberg, and Dauberman shouted almost in unison.

The technological level of the navy and the world government can be said to be world-leading. In fact, steamships have long been available in naval laboratories, but due to various reasons, they have not been mass-produced. Many naval soldiers have never even heard of this kind of ship. Ships, but with the status of the three lieutenant generals in the field, they naturally understand.

"We really underestimated him. We didn't expect him to get out the steamship. The Kingdom of Navia was not famous for its technology." Karp said to Stolberg and Dauberman.

Stoloberry still had some doubts on his face: "But it still can't explain some problems, such as how Morgan William's people gathered, and where did they go before that time."

Dauberman said coldly: "What I am most worried about now is that after they rescue Morgan William, they will continue to hide like a turtle, and my worry may become a reality. Look at them before A series of movements, just like a group of rats, they only make some small moves, they are very clear that they are not our opponents, maybe they are ready to escape from the East China Sea now, we had better block upside-down mountain as soon as possible."

As soon as Dauberman finished speaking, the phone rang suddenly. Stolberg quickly connected it, and heard the phone bug imitating a somewhat anxious voice: "This is 'Techla Wolf', Lieutenant General, Not good, Morgan William has brought someone over."

Two updates in a row, the third one will be moved to tomorrow, tomorrow I have something to get up early? (T?T), I am too sleepy, my brain is a little hard, and the chapter even posted the wrong chapter
