Pirate Commander

Chapter 34 Blue Alert
After nearly a year of development, North's men now have a regular army of 1000 people, including red police soldiers and ordinary soldiers.

This number may not sound like much, but don't forget that these 1000 people need to eat, drink and sleep at the same time, but they are not productive.

In addition, the maintenance of warships, military facilities, and various weapons also cost money. It is not easy for Cocoa Island to support the regular army of 1000 people.This is also thanks to North's grasp of the Red Alert system. If it is an ordinary force, it simply cannot afford to support an army of this size.

During the reign of the Dragon Pirates, the entire island had only a few hundred people, and each village had only a few dozen people.

Today, with the original residents on the island and the overseas immigrants who come here one after another, the population of the entire Cocoa Island has grown to about [-]. Without the surrounding land to feed back, North is not going to continue Inflate the population again.

North does not intend to develop the new country into a country that needs to rely on imports to support itself. In the current environment of the Great Age of Discovery, not having the ability to be self-sufficient is tantamount to slow suicide.

Everything needs to be done slowly and step by step. The most important thing right now is to survive the crisis of the World Government's crusade first, and then gradually try to annex the surrounding islands.

……

Cocoa Island, Orange Avenue.

Don't get me wrong, Orange Street is not a street selling oranges.

In the pirate world, most of the islands grow oranges besides coconuts.

Maybe it’s because sailors are prone to septicemia due to lack of vitamin C during long-term voyages. People accidentally discovered that eating oranges can effectively treat this symptom. Therefore, in this world dominated by oceans and sailing, most islands are planted with orange trees. .

In this world, oranges can basically represent the group of farmers.

The significance of Orange Avenue is self-evident.

It's just that on today's Orange Street, the people coming and going are not as happy as they used to be.

"Blue Alert, Admiral Nelson Roy of the world's noble Royal Navy wants to attack our country with his navy and destroy the peace and tranquility of our country..."

Except for some ignorant children, almost every citizen is reading the latest issue of the newspaper.

"Navy" is, after all, a term that does not contain commendatory or derogatory meanings.In order to distinguish it from its own navy, in the publications issued by the new country, the term "Royal Navy" is used for the navy under the World Government.

"This group of Royal Navy is always so annoying. They didn't come here when there were pirates before, but now they come here so positively."

"The enemy this time is different from those low-level pirates in the past. This is the regular Royal Navy of the World Government. Can our own navy handle it?"

"You can rest assured."

"How does that reassure me?"

"Didn't you see the official use of the term blue alert? It means that the consul doesn't take them seriously at all. Maybe the consul has already figured out how to deal with them."

"It makes sense... You're still smart, you discovered the details so quickly, you see, I panicked..."

Blue Alert is a professional term made public by the New Kingdom.

According to the degree of danger of enemy attack, the official has divided into five levels.

Green, low risk of terrorist attack.It hardly affects the lives of civilians, and most of them will become the talk of civilians after dinner.

Blue, general terrorist attack risk.The military has the ability to keep danger out of the country.

Yellow, significant terrorist attack risk.Civilians try to hide in the safe zone and do not go out, waiting for the army to solve the crisis.

Orange, higher risk of terrorist attack.It has seriously affected national security and put the whole people on alert.

Red, serious terrorist attack risk.The crisis of the life and death of the country.

The name of the game "Red Alert" is derived from this. If the Allied forces are regarded as the main character, the attacks of the Allied forces or the Empire have already caused them to risk the country's subjugation.

There is also a game called "Blue Alert", which was translated purely for the sake of popularity, and its real name is "State of War" or "Level [-] War Preparation"... I won't say much.

1000 of North's 200-man troops are explosion-proof troops responsible for maintaining domestic security. Although they can go to the battlefield with regular army equipment, the current regular army actually only has 800 men.

There are only three large warships, all of which are destroyers of the Allied Forces in Red Alert 2.

Just like the main ship of the admiral, these three are the main ships of Oleg, Gillis, and Tsuchiya.

North has the ability to produce more warships but cannot afford them. Destroyers are not sailing ships, they are modern warships, and all of them are oil tigers.

Just like the Red Police soldiers also need to eat, except for the reconnaissance plane that Usopp paid attention to before, the rest of the machines need fuel consumption.

Their ammunition has inherited the advantages of the soldiers. The supplies can be refreshed in the first round, and factory production is required for subsequent rounds.

Greatly reduced war spending.

Considering the fuel consumption problem, except for the three warships, most of the remaining warships are small ships, including the Hurricane submarine of the Allied Forces in Red Alert 2, the Torrent ACV of the Allied Forces in Red Alert 3, and the Magnetic Burst Speedboat of the Allied Forces.

It can be operated by a few people, and it is also a threat to sailing ships in One Piece World. It has high maneuverability and consumes less fuel.

There are not many tanks produced. Except for the amphibious Tsunami medium tank of the Empire, North only produced two Grizzly light tanks for appearance.

After all, the world of One Piece is a world dominated by the ocean, and tanks and the like always have a feeling of being powerless and useless.

North plans to recruit senior engineers in the future to see if tank weapons can be refitted on warships, such as prismatic destroyers and phantom submarines.Of course that's all for later.Currently North does not have permission to unlock Prism Tanks, V3 Rocket Vehicles, etc.

Next is the defense tower.

Although there are almost no flying devices in One Piece World, there are quite a few people who can fly, such as devil fruit ability users, moon steps, and so on.

In order to prevent the raids of these people, North built several Allied Patriot missiles on the island.

Yuri's Gatling gun North was not built, as in reality, the range of the gun was far less than that of the missile, but some Gatling tanks were produced, which were used as mobile anti-aircraft firepower.

The coalition's anti-aircraft guns are completely useless. The anti-aircraft guns deal fragment damage, which is good for dealing with aircraft, but not so good for hitting people, which is a waste of money.

Finally, the cannon.

Any citizen or businessman who comes to trade will never forget the exaggerated cannon at the port.

The huge monster with a height of three or four floors and a barrel length of more than 30 meters is like a door god guarding the new kingdom.

Any young people who want to make troubles feel timid in front of this behemoth and stay away.
