On September 1520, 9, the world government troops landed at the Lailong Pier in the Kingdom of Goa, but were attacked by the revolutionary army who dug a tunnel to bypass it. The formation of the government troops was in chaos, their morale collapsed, and they suffered heavy losses.

Historically known as: Lailong Erjie.

At this point, the commander-in-chief of the government army realized the serious lack of combat effectiveness of the World Government's soldiers, and suggested to reorganize the army, extend the combat period, and change the combat method.

But he realized this problem, but Wu Laoxing did not.

They believed that this defeat was just an accident. The government troops still had 38 troops and had a superior strength.

As for the quality of soldiers, it doesn't matter at all.

Of course, in order to prevent such an accident from happening again, the World Government is not doing nothing.

They will purchase guns and cannons that are weatherproof and will not fail to fire due to moisture in their gunpowder.

Well, 200 guns and cannons!

Chapter 330 Bad news comes one after another

"Twenty thousand guns? Two hundred cannons?" Looking at the data on the paper, Cyborg was a little confused: "The procurement department of the World Government, doesn't it know that I have 38 soldiers?"

"But the officials of the World Government said that now the World Government has no money and can only purchase so much!" The Army Logistics Minister also looked angry: "They also said that because of our war, the price of weapons on the black market is soaring, and there is nothing they can do about it. !”

"What does the soaring price of weapons on the black market have to do with them!" Cyborg slammed the table and roared: "Do the dignified world government officials still need to go to the black market to purchase weapons?"

The logistics director curled his lips, is that okay?

Where do you think the weapons on the black market come from?

Isn’t it just flowing out of the world government’s arsenal?

Weapons are all sold to the black market. Where can we buy them if we don’t go to the black market?

Moreover, the procurement cost is also huge!

If firearms are distributed directly from the military factory to the army, only the people in the military factory will make money.

But if you go around the black market, it is a military factory, and official procurement makes money together.

Moreover, who runs the black market?

Doflamingo you say?

Then did you know that Doflamingo is the king of the countries that join the World Government, and he also has to pay heavenly gold to the World Government?

In fact, the logistics minister is not opposed to this kind of transaction, after all, he can make some money.

As for whether this behavior is poaching the World Government?

That's for sure, but who cares!

Besides, the world government has a big business, it just digs some money, so it’s not a big problem.

Cyborg gritted his teeth and cursed a few words, and then he could only sit down helplessly.

Although he is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, he can't do anything about military factories, government procurement, or even the black market.

He can't even control his own logistics director.

He is only the top leader of the military, not the top military and political leader.

Even if he is the top military and political leader, there is nothing he can do about this level of corruption.

It has been 800 years since the establishment of the World Government. The transfer of interests over the past 800 years has long formed a layered interest network within the World Government.

This kind of network is not something you can tear open if you have the strength to do so.

Don't talk too far, people will use procedural justice to impede you, and you have no way to do it.

For example, this time, the world government said that it has no money. Even if you kill all the people and search for it in the warehouse, you will never find the money.

Arrest the person in charge and torture him?

Someone randomly introduces a person to you, and then asks, "What can you do?"

Unless Cyborg also has a goddess of wisdom, he will have no choice but to give in!

There's nothing Cyborg can do. At least he still has 20,000 new guns, so he'll make do with them.

However, the issue of withholding military pay does still need to be resolved, otherwise the war will not be fought!

But he is a traditional soldier, and he really has no good way to deal with the problem of withholding military pay.

Moreover, since he is a member of the World Government, it is not appropriate for him to interfere in the internal affairs of the participating countries.

After thinking about it, Cyborg still called Smoker, wanting to hear what the young man thought.

"To solve the problem of withholding military pay?" Smoker thought for a while and said: "There is a solution that is not a solution!!"

"What's not a solution?" Cyborg asked.

"Everyone is deducting military pay anyway, why not deduct it yourself!" Smoker said.

Cyborg's face suddenly darkened: "I already hate people who deduct military pay. Now you want me to deduct it?"

"But didn't you just teach your students before that if you want to go further, collaborating with others is inevitable?" Smoker said in shock: "Besides, I didn't say what you withheld the money and used it for!"

"Eh?" Cyborg was stunned, as if he had an idea.

"Keep talking!"

"Others withheld money and used it to spend their days and nights, but you withheld all the money and gave it to the soldiers. Is this the same?"

Cyborg nodded, he understood what Smoker meant.

In other words, he also wants to be corrupt, but the money he gets from corruption must be used to support the army. In this way, he not only achieves the goal of collaborating with those corrupt criminals, but also successfully develops an army with no shortage of military pay and combat effectiveness!

"As expected of a young man, his brain is so flexible!" Cyborg patted Smoker on the shoulder: "Go to the whole army and select those soldiers with fighting ability. We need 20,000 soldiers. When the new guns arrive, we will issue them all." give them!"

"When the army is formed, you can lead some of it!"

Zephyr is his subordinate, and Smoker is Zephyr's disciple.

In other words, Smoker is his grandson.

There was already a kinship bonus from being a relative across generations, and Smoker was very much in line with him in terms of strength, ability, and thoughts.

He doesn't mind promoting this young man!

"Yes!" Smoker saluted solemnly.

When Smoker went down to pick someone, Cyborg quickly found a way to make money.

After all, he is also the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. He didn't make money in the past because it was not necessary, not because he didn't know how to do it.

For this war, the world government allocated a large amount of money to him to purchase military supplies, post-war pensions, and awards to meritorious soldiers.

This part of the funds must have been passed through again, but what ended up in Cyborg's hands was still a huge amount.

Cyborg decisively misappropriated the funds for purchasing military supplies and awarding awards. Anyway, he lost 100,000 people in two battles. The more people died, the less items were consumed. Wouldn't this save money for purchasing military supplies?

As for the funds for awarding awards, this is even simpler. I have never won a battle. Is there a woolen bonus?

Someone had the money, and a brand new army, directly affiliated with Cyborg, was born.

Cyborg named it the Cyborg Force. This force not only has an army of 1.8 people, but also a navy of 2000 people and a total of four battleships.

This force is the best of the best selected from among 38 people. It is also equipped with the latest rifles, which are 98K firearms that can fire one bullet by pulling the bolt. Everyone at the grassroots level is issued a revolver. gun.

Don’t think that revolvers are backward, but in this era, this is already the most advanced pistol.

Because the military pay is sufficient, each soldier in this unit also has a strong fighting will. At least there will not be a situation where someone sneak attacks and then directly blows up the camp and collapses.

Of course, it is unrealistic to drag them into the battlefield as soon as the army is formed. It will take at least half a month to train and practice coordination.

But Cyborg's side was just a little bit better, and bad news followed one after another.

First of all, it was the revolutionary army. Maybe they had gained experience in using small boats to blow up big ships before, so they sent out many self-destructing small boats.

These ships were more than one meter long, filled with gunpowder, and required only one person to drive them. They sailed extremely fast along the river out to the sea from the Kingdom of Goa. The navy ships lingering at the mouth of the river turned around in a disaster and were caught off guard and were directly bombed. Three ships were lost.

As a last resort, the navy had no choice but to let the river out of the sea.

Fortunately, the sailing distance of this kind of flat boat is not far, and the warship only needs to keep a distance to avoid being bombed.

But the warships were far away from the Kingdom of Goa, and several more were blown up, so that the gap between them became larger.

Then there were transport ships secretly crossing the transport lines at night to deliver supplies to the revolutionary army.

Smoker, who was still patrolling at sea, discovered this scene and hurriedly intercepted the transport ship and contacted Cyborg at the same time.

Cyborg thought he had captured the Revolutionary Army's logistics network, and was overjoyed. Only after interrogation did he realize something was wrong.

This is indeed a good logistics network of the Revolutionary Army, but it does not belong to the Revolutionary Army, but to the world's nobility.

In order to purchase supplies, the revolutionary army charged very high prices. Anyway, they spent money from the royal family of the Kingdom of Goa, so they didn't feel bad.

When the purchase price offered is high, there will naturally be businessmen who take risks. As mentioned before, there are few pure businessmen in this context, and most of them are the white gloves of the nobles.

No, Cyborg has caught the white gloves of the world's nobles.

He had only arrested the person for three hours, and the interrogation hadn't even ended yet. The world's nobles had already called and asked them to release him.

It is worth noting that the Celestial Dragons are world nobles, but the world nobles are not the Celestial Dragons. The nobles who are attached to the existence of the Celestial Dragons are also world nobles. For example, Spandam, the chief of CP9, is a world noble.

These world nobles are like lap dogs in front of the Celestial Dragons, but without Mary Joa, they are equal to the Celestial Dragons.

Except for the fact that no general will come forward if they are beaten, their other benefits are no different from those of the Tianlong people.

After all, they are doing things for the Celestial Dragons, and you don't know whether the things they do are ordered by the Celestial Dragons or whether they do it on their own initiative.

Cyborg really wants to be tough, but I won't let them go. I want to kill them all. What can you do?

But when he was angry, he was only angry for a moment.

He couldn't do that.

He is not only a marshal, he is also a husband, a father and a grandfather.

He is already very old and basically won't be able to stay in this position for many more years.

But his son and grandson were not as capable as he was.

With his son's ability, it would be difficult to be a branch colonel, and Cyborg was not happy to have a son who was a branch colonel.

In order to preserve the family's wealth and status, Cyborg chose another way: becoming a world noble!

In fact, as commander-in-chief of the armed forces, he is a world noble in a sense, but this status does not last long. As soon as he leaves office, everything will disappear.

If he didn't want his family's identity to disappear, he would have to join the ranks of other world nobles.

It is absolutely impossible to offend!

Cyborg frees merchants transporting supplies to the Kingdom of Goa, and things begin to spiral out of control.

At first, this businessman only transported supplies at night, but after realizing that the steel frame could not help him transport supplies, his actions became more and more aggressive. Later, he even drove the boat to the dock of Goa Kingdom in broad daylight.

When other businessmen saw this, they simply imitated them. The navy also checked them in the early stage, but upon checking, they found that these people were all white-gloves of the world's nobles.

Then check it out and let it go!

The blockade that Cyborg worked so hard to build was broken into a sieve by the merchants in just a few days and became a joke.

The bad things don't stop there.

In order to transport artillery shells to the Demon-Slaying Order fleet, the Navy Headquarters established a transportation force.

But the navy's intelligence network was not tight, and the matter quickly spread on the black market.

Then the pirates on the Great Line suddenly became excited. After all, the cannonballs of the Demon-Slaying Order were valuable.

In addition, the World Government and the Revolutionary Army are currently at war, and both sides are purchasing artillery shells at high prices. The current price of artillery shells is comparable to gold. As long as you can grab it, you don’t have to worry about selling it!

Not to mention that there is a force that is quietly buying cannonballs. This is the Whitebeard Pirates who heard that Ace was captured.

Their addition made the shells more valuable.

Are the naval headquarters transporting artillery shells?

No, those are ships of gold!

As a result, the first batch of transport ships were hijacked just half a day after leaving Malinford due to insufficient preparation by the navy.

The two escort warships were all sunk, three transport ships disappeared, and all the artillery shells that the navy headquarters arsenal had worked hard to produce for a month were snatched away.

The most uncomfortable thing is that I don’t know who did it!
