C1049 Identity of the Pirates
"Don't be angry, it's fine now. Elder Bai, tell me what happened during the day, do you know who they are?"0
Xu Tianyu didn't want them to blame themselves, so he changed the topic.
"Young master, the pirate ship came for three days during the day. When we found them, they were already preparing to go ashore, around a hundred people.
There were a lot of soldiers guarding us, so they left dozens of bodies behind and left. We didn't chase them because we didn't have very large warships.
After failing three times, they left. I was afraid that they would come ashore from somewhere else, and that the soldiers of my station would be stationed where they might come ashore.
I didn't think that all three of their attacks were to divert our attention. "
Elder Bai also said regretfully. After all, the letter was sent from his side, so no matter what, it was responsible for the failure of his duty.
"Are you sure they're pirates? Is there anything that identifies them? "
Elder Bai shook his head. "No, their ship was flying a pirate flag. The pirates we killed, they didn't have anything else on them, so they could probably hide it."
"Young master, do you suspect that those pirates are all disguised as ships in the sea outside the Kingdom of Fire?" Tiansha also combined everything and said uncertainly.
"Tiansha, I can't believe it. When did your brain become so useful?" Xu Tianyu was somewhat astonished by Tiansha's guess.
"Young Master, I'm not that stupid, no?" Tiansha said in embarrassment.
The surrounding people were all amused.
"You didn't guess wrong this time. They are definitely people from the Western Sea Continent, and other than them, no one else would attack our Kingdom of Wind."
In this sea realm known as Kingdom of Wind, the only thing that neared it were the Kingdom of Fire.
Kingdom of Fire would definitely not come to find trouble now, and they did not have the time to come find trouble, so the remaining people were extremely obvious.
Right now, Xu Tianyu's only curiosity was the Western Sea Continent. That island's power had come over to look for trouble.
"Western Sea Continent? Isn't there a close trade between our two empires with their Western Sea Continent? Why did they come looking for trouble with us? " Ye Ji said naively.
"Ye Ji, sometimes war is the easiest, fastest way to profit from it."
Before Xu Tianyu replied, Liu Heng had already spoken up for him.
The others also nodded in agreement. In front of benefits, some people could do anything.
Furthermore, this was an Empire's territory. This amount of benefits was enough to make others go crazy.
"Young Master, if it's really someone from the Western Sea Continent doing it, I've thought of a possibility." Elder Bai suddenly said.
The others' attention was attracted by him all of a sudden, Xu Tianyu also looked over curiously.
"Young Master, previously, when you had assigned me to construct the Dinghai City, I already had a partial understanding of the Western Sea Continent. The closest island to us was called the Black Reef Island, and on the island was informed by a person called Leh Tian. He is famous for being a pirate in Western Sea Continent. "
"A lot of merchant ships that go through our Kingdom of Fire and Kingdom of Wind trade will pay a protection fee to Leh Tian."
Elder Bai originally planned to do business with Western Sea Continent more easily after the construction of Dinghai City. He had not expected that the information would be of use now.
