Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

Stewart led the navy with four three-masted sailing heavy cruisers, six two-masted light cruisers, and 24 single-masted destroyers. Subsequently, during the magic disaster, it continued to recruit shipbuilding craftsmen and improve the shipbuilding workshop. It has the ability to build three-masted heavy cruisers, and has imitated and built six "Sari" class heavy cruisers, and designed and built four "Dido" ships by itself. Class light patrol.

One week after the agreement was signed, Stewart led the navy with only twenty-four destroyers left to defend the offshore waters. The rest were divided into two parts, heading north and south, and combined with the navies of various treaty countries to start clearing out pirates.

Although the sea is huge, it is not possible to sail the boat however you want, but there are basically fixed routes. This is because dangers such as reefs, ocean currents, and sea monsters on the sea must be avoided, as well as how to sail in the shortest time and happen to pass through the port supply point. These routes accumulated through dozens or hundreds of experiences are the optimal choice.

Of course, there is more than one route between the two ports, merchant ships will choose, and pirates will also rob on the route. Unknown seas are more dangerous than known routes.

Now that the navies of the treaty countries have begun joint sweeps and escorted the fleets on the route, the chances of pirates succeeding are much less. Especially if Stewart leads the navy, a three-masted heavy cruiser can destroy a small and medium-sized pirate group, because it is equipped with legal professionals.

Legal professionals can use the "Fireball" scroll as long as they reach the fourth level, and one "Fireball" shot can kill a pirate ship. For a pirate ship converted from a civilian ship, it will be impossible to escape even if the main mast is blown off. Stewart owns many mage towers, and legal professionals who are willing to go to sea can share the use time of the laboratory according to their merits, attracting a large number of legal professionals to come and work.

How could pirates be the opponents of Stewart's navy during a gang-hopping war? Not to mention sophisticated weapons and armor, just being willing to use bows and arrows was enough to win the battle.

Pirates cannot always live on a ship. They must have their own secret lair, an unknown island on the sea, or a hidden place along the coast. But as long as they were caught, it was impossible for these pirates to hide it, and all these nests were wiped out by following the clues.

After wiping out so many pirates, there was still a lot of loot, which could more or less make up for some of the military expenditures.

A piece of silver, if minted into silver coins, has monetary properties. If it is made into a work of art, it can be sold for several or ten times the price. If it is an alien art, it can even be sold for a hundred times the price.

The wealth of Cold Film City is in Christine's hands. Many of the artworks with the style of the Underdark or other places are difficult to sell, and melting them into gold and silver ingots would be too wasteful. Taking advantage of this crackdown on pirates, a batch of items suitable for sale appeared on the market openly among the "trophies".

It was found in a pirate lair. The pirates were all dead, so it was impossible to find out the source, but this did not prevent it from being sold at a high price.

With such a strong attack, will pirates become extinct? Of course it's impossible. The so-called dependence on mountains and rivers means that land transportation is smooth during the disaster period. Bandits and robbers can no longer continue their work, and many people turn to pirates. In addition, the demons destroyed a large number of villages and towns, and the refugees could not survive, so naturally they did not mind joining the ranks of pirates. This is one of the reasons why Christine wants to launch a joint suppression operation. There are too many pirates.

Slowly, the surviving pirates discovered a problem, that is, the Convention Navy would only clear the routes between their own ports and escort ships out of their own ports, and would ignore the ships in non-Convention Organization ports.

As mentioned before, due to the enfeoffment system in mainland China, in addition to the king's rights stipulated in the "Three Major Conventions", the agreements signed by other kings can only represent the royal family and can only be valid in the territories directly under the royal family. When it comes to local nobles, they have to See if they recognize it or not, it will be the same this time. Why else had no one initiated such a treaty before? Why were the kings and princes of various countries surprised when they heard Christine's proposal? This type of agreement has limited effect.

The opposite is also true. I, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, protect the interests of the contracting parties. What does it have to do with me that your local nobles are being harassed by pirates?

In this day and age, who is the most well-informed person? Nobles and businessmen, so the Duke of Stewart took the lead in organizing the "North Atlantic Treaty Organization" to jointly eliminate pirates and maintain trade routes, and his good deeds were widely spread. It can be said that wherever the maritime merchants arrived, there were stories of the Tulip Duke.

The Tulip Chamber of Commerce and the Tulip Thorn are indispensable to the reason why it can spread so quickly. For this kind of prosperous business, the Church of the Goddess of Wealth has given strong support. For this kind of behavior of maintaining order, the Church of the God of Order has given a lot of convenience.

Some people are happy, but others are worried. Those local nobles were tortured by pirates and couldn't sleep at night.

In this case, the pirates' choice must be to avoid the ports and routes of the convention organization and choose local noble ports and routes without naval escort to attack. There used to be too many monks, but now the stubborn pirates have been wiped out, and the survivors can only rob the fleets of local nobles.

Of course, the fleets of local nobles must have escorts. After all, it is not safe at sea. But before, it was because the big pirates looked down on these small fleets and the small pirates were not strong enough to steal them. It's different now. The risk of snatching the fleet escorted by the Convention Organization is too high, and the big pirates have to change their targets.

Now these local nobles were in dire straits. Not only the goods were robbed at sea, but the ships were also lost. Not to mention whether these local nobles have extra money to build new ships, even if they can afford it, the ship will not be built immediately. Moreover, pirates would come ashore to harass people from time to time, so the nobles in these places were hard to guard against.

In desperation, some local nobles who couldn't hold on also applied to join the "North Atlantic Treaty Organization", but sorry, we won't accept them. But we are all nobles. As long as you sign a protection treaty, we can provide free escort and pirate elimination services.

The content of the treaty is very simple, with only two main items. One is free trade, which requires a commitment to treat goods from convention organizations the same as local products. The other is for the fleet to dock. I will definitely dock at your port to eliminate pirates and escort you. You cannot refuse this and bear 10% of the supply costs.

Some nobles felt that ten percent was not much. After signing the agreement, they no longer had to maintain a navy and saved a lot of money. The convention organization's fleet will deliver supplies to your door, so you don't have to maintain a fleet and save a lot of money, so you naturally signed the contract.

If some nobles are unwilling, the pirates will educate them.
