Chapter 180 [Potential Threats in the Southern Ocean] (top)

“Go ahead.” Dewey closes his eyes: “You better be quick and tell the truth. Don't expect me to be fooled by you! Otherwise, that little Luffik won't be able to bear much whips! ”

Old Benka sighed, helplessly glancing at Dewey: "Who the hell are you, how do you know so much about the South China Ocean! ”

Dewey smiles: "Don't you know who I am yet? My name is Dewey! Oh, sure, you may not know my name, but my father's name, I'm sure you do... his name is Raymond! Count Raymond, former Supreme Commander of the Empire's Southern Ocean Expeditionary Fleet! ”

Raymond?

As soon as the name is mentioned, old Benka's heart is beating and everything is gray!!

Because in the Southern Ocean, Raymond from the Roland Empire... the name is so loud!

Bandits, butchers! Executioner! … his hands were stained with indigenous blood, a notorious aggressor in the hearts of indigenous tribes, burning their homes and enslaving their demons. It can be said that in the Southern Ocean, Count Raymond's fame can even stop children from crying.

This sneer-faced aristocratic teenager is the son of that horrible butcher devil?!

Old Ben Card doesn't have time to think too much, because Lufik's screams are still coming! No one understands the importance of this juvenile identity better than he does! Nothing understands the identity of this teenager better than him and what profound significance it has for the Southern Ocean!

“I say! I can say anything! Just ask your men to stop!” Old Ben Card was shaking and seemed unable to stand, his face grey as if he was instantly much older.

“Yes.” Dewey gave Jolyn a look, and Jolyn went out immediately, and a moment later, the screaming stopped.

Old Benka was relieved, but his face kept beating:

“My real name is Ben Card, and I'm not lying about that name. In Nanyang, there are a lot of people who call Ben Card, which is a common name. And my identity, not the sacrifice of the Sunwheel tribe... I...” Old Benka bites his teeth hard: “My true identity is the Great Sacrificial Elder of the United Kingdom! ”

The United Kingdom?

Dewey doesn't have much on his face, but his heart is already sighing.

Indeed, there is resistance when there is oppression.

In fact, several expeditions led by Count Raymond, Dewey's father, led some very intransigent resistance over the vast waters of the Southern Ocean when some large tribes were unwilling to be exterminated by distant aggressors. However, such resistance could not have caused substantial harm to the empire's expedition at that time because the contrast of power was so great that both civilization and force lagged far behind the vast Imperial fleet.

However, with the transitional exploitation of the resources of the Southern Ocean, the tribes of the Southern Ocean, which had otherwise been subdued, had to erupt into an almost desperate and intransigent resistance to survival. Decades of ongoing war, on the other hand, have greatly stimulated the development of civilization among the tribes of the South Ocean, bringing the original indigenous peoples, in terms of force, to a level of almost deformity. Even Dewey's father, Count Raymond, had a slight apprehension about the future of the situation in the South Ocean.

And this so-called United Kingdom, Dewey, is also obscure.

Long before the days of Count Raymond's commanding navy, in the south, in areas that were extremely remote and inaccessible to the Empire's expeditionary forces, some of the more civilized and advanced large tribes had united countless small tribes to establish a “kingdom” that existed to confront the Empire. The kingdom is said to have hundreds of tribes of varying sizes, covering more than a hundred islands, the largest of which is even as large as an imperial province.

The pressure on the Empire's Expeditionary Fleet has increased since the rumored establishment of the “United Kingdom”. Initially, that pressure was not apparent because of the huge gap in force between the two sides, but in recent years the resistance of the United Kingdom in the South to the Empire had begun to show some fruitful results.

They have taken advantage of their geographical familiarity with the southern oceans and have even learned some tactics of harassment. It is also unclear where some imperial shipbuilding techniques have been stolen and a number of battleships, albeit modest, have been built at considerable speed. Relying on those battleships and empire guerrillas over the vast ocean, and often even setting traps, the empire's naval swords were directed to “dead waters” filled with vortexes and reefs, causing some damage to the empire.

The greatest change occurred three years ago, three years ago, when an empire expedition in the South Ocean sent a very clear red flag to the empire.

Because, on an expedition three years ago, an honorable record was broken that the Empire had always maintained: zero damage to battleships in frontal combat!

The Imperial Army has always been unfavourable in the face of those savages in the South.

Empire ships have never been sunk by the savages of the South!

The vast gap in force leaves the imperial army with little real threat over the frontal battlefield in the South Ocean. For them, rather than worrying about the humiliating “army” of the tribes of the Southern Ocean, they are more worried about hurricanes and whirlpools, reefs, terrible sea weather… and some proud generals claim that we go to the Southern Ocean, not to fight, but to fight. As long as the weather is good, we can even take the fleet to the end of the world!

But a battle three years ago finally broke the glorious record of the Empire!

Under the aegis and influence of the rumored "United Kingdom", the South Atlantic tribes have built a “fleet” that has been enormous, although, by imperial standards, the so-called “fleet” is truly outrageous and the best so-called "battleships” of the other side are far less than half the average merchant ship in the empire.

But the United Kingdom fleet, in quantity, is terrible. That battle, said to have gathered dozens of times as many ships as the Expeditionary Fleet, was won after a showdown at sea, but after that battle, the Empire's battleship was destroyed with zero damage!

During the battle, the Empire lost two sea-spirited battleships, and a sea-king battleship was almost severely injured.

This change should undoubtedly ring the alarm bell to the Imperial Army, but it seems that the Imperial Army did not care. After all, the past performance was too brilliant, and the army was justified by the enemy's oversized “fleet”.

Even elephants can occasionally get bitten in the face of endless ants.

But Dewey had some channels to find out the truth!

Just a few days ago, after Count Raymond left Dido, Dewey cleaned up the study left behind by Count Raymond and found some documents that Count Raymond had put in the cabinet when he was in power… Those things were military information, but after the coup d 'état, in the midst of a change of government, management was inevitably chaotic, some information held by Count Raymond was not recovered by the military - or felt that it was not important.

Indeed, for the military, the Southern Ocean is nothing more than a fat sheep slaughtered by itself.

But Dewey read those materials a few days ago and found out a lot about the battle that broke the Empire Expeditionary Force zero casualties three years ago!

First of all, the United Kingdom of the South Ocean seems to have mastered some basic tactics, which, although simpler, do fall into the category of "tactics”.

The other side leads the Empire's fleet over a sea that is very beneficial to them for a duel! It's a long sea of two islands, on both sides of the island, and the indigenous people of the Southern Ocean actually erected a bunch of stone throwers!

Those rudimentary stone throwers have a very low hit rate, but the range is far enough to cover the narrow waters between the islands on both sides! Low hits are not a problem, because the Native peoples of the South are fighting with a strong and resolute mind and empire! Throwers fired on both sides, almost indiscriminately “covered attacks” on both sides of the battle over the sea! Among them, the Empire's lost sea-spirited battleship was hit by a catapult.

Even on top of the information, there are some signs that the other party has learned simple tactics such as "cover the back road” and "bypass the sides”!

These people, they're no longer indigenous people who can only use homemade canoes, spear knives! Nearly a hundred years of oppression have allowed them to build a civilization of their own, very military nature!
