Big ships not only have strong defensive capabilities.

One thing that must be noted is that on large ships, various long-range archers, magicians, and even catapult troops can also be deployed!

On the lake, they directed fire suppression at the defenders on the opposite shore.

If it were placed on Earth, it would be a confrontation between ship-based artillery and coastal defense artillery!

With large naval vessels and a quick raid, it is very possible to cross the lake.

But where did the navy ships come from?

When Flynn was building a canal in Lake Como, he had a shipyard. After development, it also had the ability to build large ships.

But Flynn's current large ships are basically merchant ships and transport ships, and water from afar cannot quench the thirst for nearness.

Even if Flynn has a patrol fleet and a medieval version of a battleship, it is still on the seaside!

Generally speaking, there are no large naval ships in inland lakes.

But the hired pirates gave Flynn the possibility of using a navy ship to enter the lake.

That is, boating on dry land.

Flynn learned that they were very similar to the Vikings on Earth.

The group of pirates he hired were called Phoenician pirates. The pirate ship they used was also a large but very light ship.

This kind of Phoenician pirate ship can carry hundreds of soldiers, and can also place several catapults and other heavy weapons on it.

At the same time, because the hull itself is made of special wood and processing technology, the hull is very light.

A pirate ship often has dozens of pirates, and these dozens of pirates can even carry the ship across mountains and seas, walking on flat ground.

In the past, there were often Phoenician pirates. They would carry their pirate ships ashore, then bypass the enemy's defense line, swim down the river behind the enemy's defense line, and attack the enemy's fortress.

Various dry land boating methods are what they are good at.

It just so happens that this kind of pirate ship that can be easily carried on the shoulders will definitely come in handy on the Hexagonal Iron Lake.

What if I could suddenly move dozens or even hundreds of naval ships to the lake without anyone noticing?

It is completely possible to organize a wave and capture the position by the lake!

Then let more follow-up troops swim across, or come over in small boats to support.

As long as you can occupy a position by the lake, you can continue to extend it and establish your own base behind the hexagonal iron fortress.

Under a double-sided attack, the hexagonal iron fortress can definitely be easily broken.

At the beginning, when he heard about the Phoenician pirates and had the idea of ​​hiring them, Flynn was a little worried.

Will using the method of boating on dry land produce adverse reactions among the Jingluo group among the players?

After all, Flynn knew that many of his players were Jingluo players, and he was afraid that they would get angry and fight with the Phoenician pirates after seeing the boats on dry land.

But Flynn also thought that carrying a large, light ship over mountains and ridges was the iconic behavior of the Vikings.

It is tradition for Viking pirates to work for Byzantium.

Vikings from ancient times on Earth, working for Byzantium.

Nowadays, Phoenician pirates, who are quite similar to Vikings, come to work for themselves.

And he is carrying a large boat that travels on dry land to work for himself.

Super City Rome says it!

Therefore, the Jingluo players under his banner should not be angry, but should be ecstatic!

Internal conflicts should be no problem at all.

So Flynn made up his mind, used a considerable sum of mithril powder as reward, found a mercenary agency, and hired thousands of pirates.

These thousands of Phoenician pirates, and about 100 pirate ships, if spread out in an instant, can be like a huge wave, directly sweeping across the entire lake of the Hexagonal Iron Fortress.

Don't worry about the pirates' casualties or the extra hire fees if you damage the ship.

As long as you can use the fleet to gain a beachhead on the shore, then hiring these thousands of pirates is worth it!

After negotiating the terms and deciding to hire pirates, Flynn couldn't help but complain.

"I asked you intermediaries, where did you find so many pirates?"

"A pirate group of several thousand people can be hired by me in a matter of minutes. This is simply the system recruiting troops."

The mercenary agent didn't know what the system meant by recruiting soldiers, but he seemed to understand - Master Flynn cared about why there were so many pirates, and he could kill thousands of them with just one move.

Because Flynn is a big customer, the mercenary agency is also very attentive to Flynn.

Even though Flynn just complained and didn't really intend to ask questions, the mercenary agent still answered the questions patiently and carefully.

It turns out that not all of these Phoenician pirates sailed on the sea.

This Phoenician pirate team is actually a maritime nation. They also have their own base and their own families.

Most of the pirates were actually ordinary farmers in many cases. When the farming was busy, they would go home and farm with their wives, children and family members.

After the busy farming season is over, they go out on a pirate ship to make extra money. This is their way of life.

This is like many barbarians.

Many barbarians are born warriors, but at the same time, many barbarians are born warriors and are not professional warriors.

Most barbarians are nomadic, fishing and hunting, farming, or pirate nations like the Phoenician pirates.

In fact, they all have main and side jobs. They ride horses to fight in the autumn wind and drive pirate ships to plunder, which is just for extra money.

Flynn was prepared.

While waiting for the pirates to carry the big ship to rendezvous, Flynn patiently waited for the good news from Blue Snake and the others.

The Blue Snake and others who had sneaked into the fortress had been squatting in an abandoned toilet for almost a day because it was full.

The little brother next to Blue Snake couldn't help but complained to Blue Snake in a low voice: "Brother Snake, although I am a fan of Lao Ba on earth, I can't laugh at others, but Lao Ba is a real man. But Brother Snake, we are here in Lao Ba Isn’t it a bit too much to spend a whole day squatting in the Eight Happy Pit?”

Another little brother also helped: "Yes, although the sense of pain is weakened in this game, the sense of smell is not weakened. I almost vomited and I got used to vomiting."

The third little brother also said: "Although I know the toilet smells bad, this ancient toilet is really more disgusting than I imagined."

"These soldiers have made the toilets so crude and dirty and smelly. Aren't they afraid of causing a plague in the military camp?"

"When Mr. Fu conquers the Iron Qiu Kingdom later, we must suggest to Mr. Fu that we launch a nationwide health campaign."

The fourth little brother was about to continue complaining, but Blue Snake took the initiative to shut everyone up, and then said: "It smells a little bit here."

"Okay, it's 100 million points."
