Du Qian was stunned when he heard this. He wanted to know, are the officers saying true? Is it from the Empire or Zhenhai? Why do you listen, these are warships? Not to mention anything else, the main warships and airships are definitely powerful weapons for the country, and their value is immeasurable. When you get here, they have become tools for leisure and vacation?

No matter what era, the consumption of the air force and the navy is much greater than that of the army. The army relies on a huge number of troops, while the navy and the air force have greater equipment value and higher technical requirements.

Thinking back to the time when I was in Pingchuan City, I could occasionally see the imperial squadrons training on the sea. Every time I could see these orphans of war were so excited that they were just a squadron. But that was just a squadron. There were not many main warships in total, and there were no need to think about the airships and the motherships.

Originally, the naval power of the Zhoushan Empire was far inferior to Zhenhai, and the main fleet was far different, let alone a squadron in a remote small city.

The Zhenhai Alliance is composed of countless islands, which determines that the Zhenhai Alliance spends the largest amount of money and economic power on the navy. It is said that Zhenhai’s military expenditure is originally several times higher than Zhoushan and Butian, and 70% of the military expenditure is used for naval construction.

During the Hundred Years War, whether it is Zhoushan or Butian, the military power sounds very strong, but if you want to attack the Zhenhai Alliance, it is a joke. They live in the sea and there are islands one by one. How do you attack?

On the other hand, it is much easier if the Zhenhai Alliance wants to attack Zhoushan and Butian. The fleet opens the way, and any coastline can become a springboard for the Zhenhai Alliance's attack. However, the Zhenhai soldiers are recognized as weak, afraid of death and high requirements, and are unyielding master soldiers. The Navy can show off their power on the shore, but the army becomes soft as soon as it reaches the ground.

Based on this situation, the Zhenhai Alliance has sufficient defense but insufficient offense. Fortunately, the Zhenhai Alliance is basically islands, which also determines that it is difficult for their system to form a whole and can only exist in the form of alliances. It is difficult for the population to increase rapidly. Even in the war, the death toll in Zhenhai is the smallest, which still puts the three major forces in a relatively balanced state.

Hundreds of years ago, a philosopher from Butian said that if Zhou Shan and Butian were the two bastards, they would continue to fight to the death, it would not take long before Zhenhai could swallow them in one bite.

This sounds impossible, but Zhenhai's strength is constantly improving, but it is a fact that the sea is boundless. There are so many islands in the sea, let alone Zhoushan and Butian, I am afraid that even the Zhenhai Alliance itself cannot figure out.

As long as there are enough islands, there is room for human survival, and the population can increase to an infinite extent. For Zhenhai Alliance, the only headache for them is how to control the area and population that continues to expand into the deep sea.

"Okay, help me decide a main warship." Du Qian really wanted to see it. When he was at Fisherman's Wharf, he could only stand on the shore and look at it from a distance. It was a dream to board the ship. The Navy and the Army were not the same system as before. Not to mention him, a little orphan, even the Lord of Pingchuan would not have a chance to inspect the warship.

"Do you need the Imperial Battleship or the Zhenhai Battleship?" The officer took out a small notebook and asked seriously. Judging from his appearance, he looked like a merchant than a soldier. What kind of troops could such an officer bring out really make Du Qian suspicious.

"The people in Zhenhai are so amazing." Yao Jing said softly.

Du Qian was stunned for a moment and immediately realized that near Pingchuan City, there were city defense forces and reserves. Not to mention the regular Zhoushan army, Du Qianke saw the equipment and training of these two miscellaneous armies. It was definitely not a weak brigade. I believe this situation is not an isolated case. The military system of the Zhoushan Empire is not much different.

It is obvious that the officer only became like this after he arrived at the Honghai War Zone. From this we can see how corrupted the Zhenhai people were to the Emperor Team.

"Then let's go to Zhenhai battleship, what do I need to pay?" Du Qian asked.

"It depends on how long you rent it, how large the range of activities is, whether you need to use the strong magnetic cannon on the warship, and if so, how much is it used?" said the officer. It seems that this business has not existed for a day or two, and the division is quite detailed.

"I can't settle down, can I play first and then pay?"

"This is not in line with the rules. If you want to play the best, of course it is okay. However, you need to pay the advance payment, and you can pay more or less. Do you think it's okay?"

"Okay, tell me, how much is the advance payment?" Du Qian said without any confidence. He still had more than one million gold tickets on hand. For individuals, this was definitely a huge sum of money, but when he thought of the main warship, this little money seemed very thin.

Zhoushan coins were quite strong in the Zhoushan Empire. They had almost never depreciated for hundreds of years, and even had a little appreciation. But if they were replaced by Zhenhaiyuan, they would not be so useful. After all, Zhenhai's economy is far stronger than Zhoushan.

The powerful magnet cannon is not used to hit people, but to attack warships. It has infinite power, and of course its weakness is also obvious and its speed is not enough. In front of a real strong man, even if hundreds of strong magnetic cannons are locked, it is impossible to hurt the strong man.

"Your Excellency, Zhoushan coins are of limited use here. If you can come up with some treasures, the prices can be discounted, such as hardware, stone drums, talismans, and any valuable treasure."

"Well, what do you think of these?" Du Qian was relieved. What he lacked the most was hardware. He was too lazy to pick it up. Later, considering that he might use it when making tools, he collected some of it. In his eyes, hardware that was not valuable is not cheap here. Du Qian had a high vision, and would never pick up small pieces or slightly inferior hardware.

Du Qian was not stupid. He had known the importance of not revealing his money. Although there were not many people who could make him feel scared now, it would be no harm to be cautious, so what he took out was four large pieces of steel.

The officer's eyes became brighter and he nodded repeatedly: "Enough, these are enough. I will arrange for you to take you to a nearby hotel first. The conditions may be worse. You can contact the main warship of Zhenhai at the latest tomorrow morning. If it is fast, you will be able to live on the warship tonight."

Yao Jing shook her head secretly, boys are just careless. You take out the lie steel to keep money from showing off. But with such a large lie steel, only if you can hold the lie steel in your pocket, you can see that you have a space talisman. Not to mention four pieces of lie steel, even if you change it to jingjin, your value may not be higher than that of a space talisman.

Of course, Yao Jing thought about it was about the same as Du Qian. Anyway, he came here just for vacation. With the strength of Du Qian and Xiaoxin, plus three puppets, in this world, except for a few people, whoever has the idea of ​​them will be asking for trouble.

At the far end of the beach market, a bald man squatted on the ground and placed a bunch of specialties from Zhenhai in front of him. There are many specialties in Zhenhai. Zhou Shanren is most familiar with various industrial products, as well as wines such as deep-sea wines. In fact, the resources in the sea are far more than on land.

Occasionally, when I looked up, my eyes were fierce and there was a sneer on the corner of my mouth. Everyone here knew that he could guess that this was a pirate.

A group of pirates is a crossing street rat in Zhoushan, so it is difficult to form a scale. As last time, it is extremely rare to attack Pingchuan City.

It is completely different when placed in Zhenhai. Pirates are an extremely powerful force and the relationship is complicated. Don’t think that pirates are pirates and pirates are black. Who doesn’t have many pirates in their hands under the names of the major forces in the Zhenhai Alliance?

In addition to these fake pirates, the power of real pirates is also outrageous. The children expelled by the consortium and the civilians who were destroyed, have produced countless pirates for various reasons. When they united, even the Zhenhai Alliance was unwilling to go to war with them.

In frontal conflict, pirates certainly do not have the killing weapon like the main warship, and they cannot create a maritime fortress like airships and motherships that integrate maneuvers, attacks and defenses. However, the pirate's deep submarine ship is enough to make Zhenhai Navy feel uncomfortable.

The average individual combat power of pirates is far superior to that of Zhenhai Navy. Moreover, there are many smart people among pirates. They rarely take the initiative to attack the navy and use your commercial fleet to attack. Even if there are escort warships, ships will often be destroyed and killed.

Pirates also do business? In this way, pirates are also humans, so they naturally need food and clothing, and even more so, ships, warships and various equipment. Moreover, pirates pay more attention to their personal cultivation. Cultivation cannot be stopped. This requires various resources to support them. If you don’t do business, where do these things come from?

Grabbing is naturally an important source of wealth, but most of the time, the snatched are civilian supplies. Should we take action on these things? How can we exchange the materials we need after taking action?

Business is a must. Everyone in Zhenhai knows that it is the most profitable to do serious business with pirates. The goods they sell are half the market price, and the purchase price of buying things is twice as high. Who doesn’t want to rush to do such a good business?

Zhenhai people pay attention to credibility, even pirates do this. Snatching you is robbing you, and business is business. It is extremely bloody when robbing, and killing people and robbing goods is common.

The so-called hotels are quite speechless. In fact, there are no towns nearby, and dozens of tents are lined up. This is the so-called temporary hotel. Don’t be unhappy. There are many businessmen coming to the beach market. Such tents and hotels are not a problem, and they really can’t be queued.

Looking at the hotel in front of him, Du Qian turned around and left. In the open space not far away, three puppets were busy running. In a moment, a temporary camp that looked like it was completed. The tent was built and the conditions inside were much more comfortable than the tent hotel.

Not to mention, this officer's ability was quite good, and Du Qian didn't let him get too far. In the evening, the five people had just finished their supper, and the officer led a few people to find the temporary camp.
Chapter completed!
