Chapter 1147 Player Attack
After putting away the newly acquired banned book, the pirates almost cleaned up the battlefield. Most of the supplies were burned or sank to the bottom of the sea with the ships, but the pirates still salvaged some wine barrels and wooden planks.
At sea, any piece of wood is a useful material. The pirates salvaged everything they could. Zhang Tuohai changed course and continued to sail towards the distance.
This place is very close to Red Stone Island, which had been attacked. Coupled with Antonio's disappearance, the Targaryen family will definitely know that it is related to him, and will definitely send people to retaliate. What Zhang Tuohai can do is to weaken their local power as much as possible before the Targaryen family reacts, so that they have no energy to mobilize locally.
As for the target, Zhang Tuohai has already chosen it, which is Hongfeng City.
Red Maple City is a city built on the seaside, famous for the abundant red maples around it.
In the early years, this was just a small village mainly engaged in logging. After the Targaryen family occupied it, they took advantage of the local timber and transformed it into a shipbuilding plant, providing ship repair services.
Because there are few private shipyards, all nearby ships will be repaired here. As the number of ships increases, this place becomes prosperous.
Gradually, this place became one of the pillars of the Targaryen family in the Shaar Sea, and the revenue from various industries combined accounted for more than a quarter of the Targaryen family's total income in the Shaar Sea.
If this place is destroyed, one leg of the Targaryen family's power in the Sharar Sea will be cut off.
"That's it."
Zhang Tuohai adjusted the course to the route towards Hongfeng City.
The White Bird sailed forward all the way, and in order to impersonate, it changed its ship license plate again.
This time, Zhang Tuohai did not continue to disguise himself as the Imperial Navy, but disguised himself as an ordinary merchant ship.
After all, this city is different from strategic locations like Redstone Island. This commercial city is a town run solely by the Targaryen family. It belongs to the empire in name, but it is actually a colony. As long as the Targaryen family pays the taxes stipulated by the Empire on time, the Targaryen family is the local emperor here, and no one from the empire will come to cause trouble.
It is no longer appropriate to disguise as the Imperial Navy; an ordinary merchant ship is more reliable.
As they slowly approached Hongfeng City, various ships gradually increased in number. From time to time, Zhang Tuohai could see fleets of various sailboats appear in his sight.
There were large sailing ships for transporting cargo, shallow-water paddle boats that could only sail near the coast, and even some fishing boats.
"Is this the Char Sea? It's much more prosperous than the Thunder Sea."
Zhang Tuohai looked at the sailboats passing by from time to time and said that he rarely saw so many ships in the Thundering Sea.
After driving for another two hours, Zhang Tuohai finally saw the city in the distance. The buildings in the city were only two colors, white and blue.
It is either pure white, pure blue, or half white and half blue, no other colors.
The city is surrounded by endless red maple forests that look like flames.
Not only is the city white, but many ships are also painted white.
“This is quite a big deal.”
Zhang Tuohai held up a telescope and looked at the Red Maple City in the distance.
He had seen this kind of city design before, but that was a tourist city, and in a modern society with a complete petrochemical industry and reduced paint costs, so this was possible.
But that's not the case here. The industrial level here is at most the era when the steam engine was just invented. Chemistry has not yet been separated from alchemy. The cost of dyeing is very high. How much does it cost to dye an entire city into two colors?
"It seems there's something about this city."
Zhang Tuohai became interested in this city and wanted to learn more about it.
"Yin Lisha Bai, a city like this where business and travel gather must have a large number of local products. Do you want to go down and select some ingredients to enrich the food variety?"
Zhang Tuohai invited Yin Lishabe.
He also invited Molly and Linda, but the two were busy teasing the black dragon Alduin and refused the proposal to go ashore.
The first mate still took people ashore to purchase various supplies needed on the ship.
In the end, only Zhang Tuohai and Yin Lishabai were left together.
The two men walked along the bridge into the dock.
A market spontaneously formed next to the pier, with vendors from all over the place selling their local specialties.
Zhang Tuohai even saw some snack stalls, selling some strange-looking things, such as coconut chicken nuggets, yogurt blocks, fried pancakes and so on.
No matter how it tastes, the existence of this kind of snack is enough to show the abundance of resources in this place.
At the dock, Zhang Tuohai keenly noticed that although the market was full of people from all over the place and looked diverse, there was a group of people who seemed out of place here.
Although they were wearing local clothes, their behavior always looked strange.
But Zhang Tuohai couldn't tell what was strange about it.
It was not until he saw a woman with holes cut in her pants walking past Zhang Tuohai in a model's gait that he realized something was wrong. It turned out that they were a group of players.
Zhang Tuohai himself is also a player, so he subconsciously rationalized the behavior of those players and naturally couldn't figure out what was weird.
"Why are there so many players here? Don't all players choose to be lords?"
“It looks interesting.”
At this moment, Zhang Tuohai discovered that all the players were suddenly walking in the same direction. Out of curiosity, Zhang Tuohai followed.
Zhang Tuohai found that more and more people were gathering, and many of them were carrying various weapons, including rapiers, scimitars, bows and arrows, and muskets. Almost everyone was carrying a weapon.
Others drove horse-drawn carriages loaded with large boxes or covered with thick canvas, making it impossible to tell what was inside.
"What are they going to do?"
Zhang Tuohai instinctively felt that something important was about to happen.
The group slowly gathered at the square in front of the Governor's Mansion. There was a large open space here, and the ground was paved with large pieces of marble, clean and tidy. A team of private soldiers of the Targaryen family wearing black clothes and black cloaks stood in front of the Governor's Mansion, guarding against possible unexpected situations.
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a breastplate walked in front of the crowd, drew the rapier from his waist and shouted: "Players of the Tulip Guild, these damn NPCs rely on their local status to bully us players. Today is the time for us to take revenge. Charge into the Governor's Mansion, seize Red Maple City, and build a city that truly belongs to us players! Charge!"
