Warlock Royal Family

Ladislaus' concerns didn't last long, and several fires at the pier were quickly extinguished.

The pirates had wiped out the few local garrison forces on the inner wall that separated the docklands from the city.

Without Hayreddin's order, the pirate captain who had previously controlled the warehouse and berth spontaneously organized the firefighting work.

This situation shows that the pirates have greatly strengthened their organization and are not what they used to be.

In the past year, the pirates have been driven out of Algeria and Tunisia, and can only operate from the ports of Tripoli and Benghazi. [

This means that they can no longer threaten the mainland of Spain and the south coast of France, greatly reducing their living space.

But this also made Hayreddin make the final decision. The leader of the Barbary pirates has officially surrendered to the Ottoman Empire. He went to Istanbul to meet Suleiman in person a few months ago, gave him the etiquette of a minister, and accepted it. "Pasha" title.

Although all this was done in secrecy to avoid diplomatic trouble, in practice the most powerful part of the Barbary pirates had been incorporated into the informal establishment of the Ottoman Empire.

Hayreddin then relied on the financial and management personnel provided by Ottoman to establish a preliminary organizational structure, which gave the Ottoman Empire great influence among pirates.

This kind of influence far exceeds the heyday of the Mamluk Dynasty, and the small sultanates of Tunisia and Libya are even more incomparable.

This kind of surrender made the Ottoman Empire more willing to assist these pirates, and Suleiman instructed the Egyptian governor to provide a lot of supplies to Hayreddin.

Hayreddin observed through this trip that the situation of the Ottoman Empire has been operating surprisingly well in the past period of time. Politically, the authority of the center has greatly increased and the order has been static. The economy has been greatly revitalized due to the reduction in logistics costs. Freedom to move through the Eastern Mediterranean lowers military spending.

All of this was due to the removal of the cancerous tumor called the Knights Hospitaller on Rhodes Island. This thrombus growing in the chest cavity could no longer interfere with the giant body of Osman.

Its breathing and blood flow were unprecedented.

Now the Knights Hospitaller is building forts and ports on the island of Malta, and there is no threat to the star-moon countries on the southern coast of the Mediterranean Sea for the time being.

Although many local sultans on the southern coast of the Mediterranean have been urging Hayreddin to pull out this stronghold, Hayreddin did not interfere with the reorganization of this group of pagan pirates at all, let alone a large-scale attack.

The official reason, of course, is that after repeated heavy losses, they lost the years of hoarding in the city of Algiers, the base camp.He is temporarily unable to confront the mighty Spanish navy.

The supplementary reason beyond the formal reason is that Hayreddin does not want the Sudans of Tunisia and Libya to have a better life.

In fact, surrendering to Suleiman was only a last resort. He liked freedom and independence more than any pirate.

Another point is that although they are both believers of the Xingyue Demon, Dagon and Demogorgon are also the friendliest among the Xingyue Demons, but they still compete with each other, although the intensity of this competition is similar to that of Persia. That big demon is much gentler than that.

Hayreddin envies the independent status of the Knights Hospitaller at all times, and the camera recaptures this freedom.

But he did like being under the strict orders of the Ottoman elite.Pirates who know to put out fires.

When Hayreddin's ship docked at the pier, the pirates had already broken through the wall and moved towards the city. As soon as he stepped ashore, several subordinates who had arrived earlier reported to him.

"Your Highness, the fires caused by the fighting in several large warehouses have been brought under control, and the food and cloth in them have begun to be loaded." With the help of the Ottoman bureaucrats, many materials that could only be burned to ashes in the past are now ordered. pack the ship. [

"This time no one entered the houses to rob and rape without permission." Although the law entered the Western Mediterranean.However, in recent months, Hayreddin's gang has carried out countless successful robberies on the west coast of the Adriatic Sea. During this period, through counting, killing and flogging, no one will do that kind of stupid thing like a sperm on the brain.

Those who can do such things have already gone to see Xingyue Demon.

"The ship of expensive Viennese wine that His Highness Jarlaxle announced has also arrived. Destroying the source of these evils will definitely satisfy Allah."

Although the goods have been loaded on the ship, according to the usual handover procedures, the handover procedures are not completed so quickly, and the goods will not officially belong to the Banrui family until the day they leave the port.

So it was Austrian property that was lost in this robbery.

Of course, most pirates don't need to know that the owner of these goods is an ally of the Ottoman Empire, otherwise.Those pirates will inevitably have unnecessary doubts about their beliefs.

Worse, they might think of the secret source of expensive but always-available booze in their own camp.

No way, Hayreddin needs to recycle as much as possible of the harvest after the pirates' robbery. For this reason, he has to withstand the pressure of several most devout Xingyue great demon priests to run a little wine business.

Of course, Hayreddin himself is a teetotaler, and he is also an authentic caster and devout believer.

"Send all the wine to the ship and return to Ragusa for a formal sacrifice." However, it is enough to supply the worst goods to the pirates. Anyway, they have no other way to buy junk goods at high prices.These good things should be sacrificed to Dagon, the great demon with too much memory due to his long life, who has been plagued by headaches and needs alcohol to numb himself.

"Is the target still 500 people this time? Each captain will retreat after getting [-] slaves?" An assistant asked Hayreddin to determine the target of the battle.

When they were active in the towns on the east coast of the Apennine Peninsula, they fought according to this mode. They were quick and effective, and did not give the enemy a chance to counterattack.

The targets worthy of Hayreddin's attack with ten pirate ships are basically towns with a population of several thousand. Although in this era they are all large cities with the size of provincial capitals, the base camps of many nobles of the Church of Rome are only of this size. .

Damage caused by arresting 500 people at once.It is the limit that this kind of town can recover in a short time.

The Barbary pirates try not to fish dry, they don't want to completely destroy the town.

"No, today's goal is 2000 people. Catch five hundred and kill one thousand five. When we retreat, we must set fire to it, and the towns in Austria must be completely destroyed." Hayreddin's words made another assistant from Ottoman nodded in satisfaction. , he received instructions that the immediate task was to weaken the national power of Austria and Hungary as much as possible.

After this level of damage, Trieste has not been able to recover for more than ten years.

"Austria is one of the main obstacles for His Majesty Suleiman to pass the only correct belief to the four directions. Austria is not our fishing ground. We want to turn this place into a desert, a desert that cannot produce enemies." With a wave of the trident, "Let Captain Su Ke lead the way, this time we will destroy the enemy's lair."
