One Piece: In the Name of the Father

Chapter 193 Pretending to be a Pirate One
In Xiaohe City in Xiaoheling, Matsurize and Abin are personally in charge of the intelligence work on the King's Landing.

Before the war begins, intelligence comes first. In a war, this intelligence work cannot be sloppy.

The annexation war against the King's Land is currently only known to the top leaders of the Xiaohe Leader, that is, Matsurize himself and his wife Ayane, as well as Baritu, Abin, and Mellon.

And people from the outside world, whether they were slave traders, arms dealers, or merchants traveling to and from Songbai Island, or people from Megan's and King's collars on Songbai Island, would never have thought that Xiao He would make such a move.

Even Mellon believes that although the overall strength of the Xiaohe Territory is worse than that of the King's Territory, the surprise attack that is going to be launched this time, that is, the action of annexing the King's Territory, is very successful. liquidation.

In fact, Mellon was also guessing, guessing wildly. He guessed that Matsu Rize was so confident that he would not be afraid of the liquidation of the Golden Lion. He wondered if he had gotten along with some big shots. He guessed that it was the Roger Pirates who had made some promises to Matsu Rize.

This is also the reason why Matsurizawa just made an arbitrary decision this time, and the people below soon stopped making noises.

However, Mellon was still worried that if his conjecture was successful, the leader of Xiaohe might become the victim of the two big men, Golden Lion and Roger.

No matter how smart Melon was, he never imagined that Matsurizawa would lose the Golden Lion Club's defeat, completely lose his reputation as a great pirate, and would no longer be able to be the backstage for anyone.

Xiaohe collar's intelligence investigation of the king's collar is one aspect, and on the other hand, Matsurize is still aggressively recruiting troops.

From the 10 slaves he led from Xiaohe, he drew [-] young men and merged with the [-] Xiaohe Army to form a [-]-strong Xiaohe Army.

Matsurize broke up the [-] Xiaohe army and joined [-] slaves. Except for the troops in Sanchuan City, the strength of the others was not changed, and the others were scattered, and they were conducting military training in secret.

It can be said that Matsurize is making a big gamble. Of course, this is in the eyes of outsiders. In Matsurize's own eyes, this is just a gamble with a high winning rate.

The Xiaohe leader with a population of 40 needs to support the Xiaohe army with a size of 10. If it takes a long time, the leader of Xiaohe will collapse if no one else does it.

It can be said that the current leader of Xiaohe is destined to clash with the leader of the king.

Song Lize recruited so many troops, not only to increase the winning rate of the war with the King's Land in the future, but also to ensure that the Songbai Island's regime can safely transition to the era of Xiaohe's rule in the future.

Although the expansion of Xiaohe's army was drawn from among its own [-] slaves, in order to ensure the morale of the army and the overall combat effectiveness, the supply and supply of Xiaohe's army was very generous, and it was also very generous to Xiaohe who was a well-trained slave. The army was restored to civilian status.

All of this is extremely costly. For this reason, in Xinxing Port, Xiaoheling supplemented and expanded the sea tower stone keel armed merchant ships, and now there are as many as thirty ships in total.

Why is this?Originally, the economy of Xiaohe collar is very tight now.

This is all due to the fact that when Ayane led the team to go to sea before, although it was because of Spencer, the trip to the sea was very fruitful, which gave inspiration to Xiao Heling's high-level leaders.

Leader Xiaohe is going to send out armed merchant ships in turn to plunder. Of course, Leader Xiaohe still has principles, and will only attack pirates and forces affiliated with pirates.

This is not the first initiative of Xiaoheling. In the New World, even in Paradise and the Four Seas, there are many formal political forces.

For the sake of Bailey, for safety, and for many, many different factors, they will let their sailors or navy go out to sea and pretend to be pirates.

What's more, for example, the Kingdom of Flowers in the West Sea has made its own navy directly become pirates, and after becoming a pirate blatantly, it is still attached to the corresponding position in the Kingdom of Flowers, and has been loyal to the King of Flowers for generations room.

What's more, Xiaohe's actions are equivalent to training soldiers. Originally, in order not to attract the attention of other forces on Songbai Island, the [-] Xiaohe troops in Xiaohe were scattered very widely, making it difficult to train.

This time the Xiaohe Army went out to sea to pretend to be pirates, divided into multiple batches, [-] armed merchant ships, and six armed merchant ships went to sea at a time, aboard a thousand-man Xiaohe Army.

In this way, 6000 people can be trained intensively, and they are still elites who have experienced naval battles.

It can be said that it not only improves the quality of training, but also generates income for the current economically stressed Xiaohe collar.

Soon, the first batch of Xiaohe Army went to sea, led by Gerald who is now the number one expert in Xiaohe Army.

Gerald attached great importance to this sea plunder, for which he drew in two of his confidants, namely Tagore and Burton.

These two people were both met by Gerald in the cub camp. Tagore, the fur-haired tiger, was Gerald's classmate, and Burton was a bit strange.

Burton was originally a teacher in the Young Tiger Camp, or a teacher who stayed in school after graduating from the Young Tiger Camp.

Matsurize knew him, and planned to train him to be a member of the leadership team in charge of the Young Tiger Camp in the future?

But no one thought, and neither did Matsurize himself. Originally, Matsurize let his sons and daughters study in the young tiger camp. A big factor was to let them train and win over their own subordinates in the future.

But unexpectedly, Gerald pulled the teachers away all at once.

Burton also came to formally join Gerald after Gerald became the captain of ten thousand.

Burton is a bit tactful, but he also has a passionate heart. When he graduated from the Young Tiger Camp, he wanted to join the army. He didn't have any background, and he didn't know if he could make a name for himself, so he stayed in school.

But the acquaintance with Gerald, he felt it was an opportunity for himself, Gerald's superb force and strong personal charm, after Gerald served as the captain of the Xiaohe Army later, Jean Bo Dun knew that he couldn't wait any longer, and the opportunity would slip away if he waited any longer.

Gerald safely took ten armed merchant ships full of 1000 Xiaohe troops through the sea near the sea filled with sea kings.

"Let's talk about it, let's act as pirates, who is the first target?"

Of the 1000 people Gerald brought out at this time, only 700 were the veterans he had brought with him, and the other [-] were recruited from the slaves of the Xiaohe Army.

At this moment, Gerald brought Tagore, Burton, and a few commanders under him together for a meeting to discuss.

"I think the most important thing to do now is to replace our flag and logo."

As soon as Burton said it, he hit the point, and he could no longer wave the flag of Xiaohe collar.
