Chapter 856 Landing on the Beach Is a Problem

The Great Xia Dynasty was preparing for the battle, and the Mediterranean Sea was in turmoil again.

On May 10, Queen Kalia of Atlantis sent an invitation to the lords of the Mediterranean Sea to visit the city of Atlantis and discuss the development of Atlantis technology.

The Atlantis Empire in ancient times was submerged by a monstrous flood and buried under the sea, becoming an unsolved mystery of history. With the help of Ouyang Shuo a year ago, the city of Atlantis was able to reappear in the human world.

It's just that compared to the unimaginably huge Atlantis Empire, the city of Atlantis is just a small corner, which is really less than one-thousandth of the empire's heyday.

In the library of Atlantis City, there are a large number of documents about the history and civilization of the empire. Even the heir to the royal family, Kalia, is fascinated by the magnificent picture scroll of civilization.

Kalia proposes to gather the power of the entire Mediterranean, go deep into the seabed again, and explore more underwater ruins of the Atlantis Empire, so as to crack the Atlantis technological civilization and bring it back to the world.

As soon as the news came out, there were naturally many responders.

Even a man with ulterior motives like Caesar could not resist the temptation and was ready to be invited.

All of a sudden, the Mediterranean Sea became very lively, which set off a great submarine expedition of "there is no one before, and there will be no one to come after", making the Mediterranean Sea the focus of global attention.

…………

On May 12, Base Point City.

The base point city shrouded in night is like a giant beast in the deep sea, with its fangs restrained, silently lurking at the entrance of the Mediterranean Sea, watching the ships entering and leaving the Mediterranean Sea with cold eyes, like the three-headed hellhound guarding the gate of hell, which makes people feel Looking at it with fear, I dare not give birth to the slightest provocation.

The sea breeze blows, bringing bursts of fishy smell.

Even at night, the port of Gibraltar outside the city is still brightly lit. Thousands of merchant ships with sails and flags from various countries are berthing at the port, row upon row.

Every merchant ship in the port is an ocean-going giant, carrying the merchant's dream of wealth.

The pier is full of people and noisy.

More than a dozen distinctive taverns lined up along the pier, exuding the aroma of wine, crowded with people, providing a most suitable place for entertainment for businessmen and sailors.

Because it is the throat of ocean trade, there are not only elegant pubs with pure oriental characteristics, but also wild pubs with Western style, and more are the products of the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures.

Everywhere in the tavern, reserved oriental businessmen and enthusiastic western businessmen can be seen gathering together to discuss a sum of money. And this kind of bustle and bustle lasted until the early morning of the next day before it came to an end.

Without exception, these taverns are one of the strongholds of the Black Snake Guard.

For Black Snake, who was born as an international mercenary, it was like a duck to water in this noisy environment where the East and the West mixed with each other, where alcohol and women played the leading roles.

Black Snake is very familiar with this kind of environment. Even with his eyes closed, Black Snake knows who can get effective information from them, and who has evil intentions.

Taverns have always been well-informed places. Merchants travel all over the world and are well-informed. A little information that may be inadvertently leaked may be converted into an important piece of information.

Just through these taverns, the Black Snake Guard can obtain a lot of international information.

...

At nine o'clock in the evening, Desert Star Tavern.

Among the dozen or so taverns, the Desert Star Tavern located on the westernmost side of the pier was not very conspicuous. The only difference was that the owner of the tavern was a black man from a small unknown country on the African continent. Of course, no one would underestimate the owner of the shop. Anyone who can open a tavern at the base point city pier is not a person with good eyesight.

In an ordinary room on the second floor of the tavern, Black Snake was meeting someone.

At this moment, the whole tavern seemed to be in order, but it was actually under the secret surveillance of the Black Snake Guards. Even the owner of the tavern was a member of the Black Snake Guards.

A slightly dim room can always arouse people's bad associations.

"Have you brought anything?" Black Snake asked.

Sitting opposite the black snake was a Berber from Rabat, the royal city of Morocco. This person was in his thirties, and he was covered in a black robe, and even his head was wrapped in a black scarf, so he couldn't see his face clearly.

If you were born in the army, you can definitely tell from the sitting posture that this person is a soldier.

The mysterious man said in a hoarse voice, "I brought what you want, where is the thing I want?"

Black Snake smiled, took out a wooden box, pushed it to the man, "Open it and have a look!"

The mysterious man hesitated for a moment, then opened the wooden box, but saw a huge diamond like a pigeon egg lying quietly in the wooden box, even in the dark night, it still shone with charming and bright light.

"It's it!"

The mysterious man was obviously a little excited.

There was a smile in the corner of Black Snake's eyes, but he didn't see how he moved. The wooden box had been re-covered, and he returned to Black Snake, "Look at the things, it's time to show me what I want."

The mysterious man looked at the wooden box obsessively, and without hesitation, he gritted his teeth, took out a roll of maps from his pocket, and said tremblingly, "This is it."

Black Snake took it, glanced at it briefly, and carefully put it into the storage bag, "You should know, what will be the consequences of deceiving us?"

When the mysterious man heard this, fear flashed across his face. Of course he knew that the person in front of him was a demon, and tremblingly said: "You can check it out. If there is a mistake, I will die."

"Happy!" Black Snake smiled, handed over the wooden box, and said, "It's yours now."

The mysterious man hugged the wooden box.

Black Snake said: "Remember, if you dare to leak any news, your wife and children will have to be thrown to feed the sharks."

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" The mysterious man secretly wiped off his cold sweat, and without stopping, he left immediately and disappeared into the vast night.

Seeing this, a man beside Black Snake said, "My lord, are you really letting him go like this?"

Black Snake was expressionless, "What else do you want? Killing people for money, destroying corpses and destroying traces?! There is no reason to ask for things sent by Black Snake Guards."

"That diamond is worth tens of thousands of gold." The man was a little excited.

Black Snake's expression turned cold, and he said lightly: "Even if it's priceless, you can't break the rules. Your Majesty is the one who hates people messing around. If you let me know who has some crooked thoughts, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"yes!"

The surrounding members of the Black Snake Guard heard this, and sweat broke out on their foreheads.

Black Snake shook his head, and said with a bit of resentment: "I said you guys have been with the king for so long, are you going to be a bit promising? Our king wants to be the hegemon of the world, so don't embarrass me every day. Like a bunch of hicks who haven't seen the world."

"My lord taught me a lesson." All the younger brothers were ashamed.

Black Snake said: "Okay, I'll go first, that kid has to keep an eye on it, don't make any trouble."

"promise!"

…………

After leaving the tavern, the black snake turned around and entered the city.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of the wharf outside the city, the inside of Jidian City is eerily quiet. As early as eight o'clock in the evening, a curfew had been imposed in the city, and there was no one idler on the street.

In the entire city, only the direction of the City Lord's Mansion is still brightly lit.

After half a month of preparations, the pre-war preparations are basically complete, more than 80% of the war materials have been delivered, and the four major armies are also ready to go.

In the City Lord's Mansion, after dinner, Ouyang Shuo called the generals for a pre-war meeting. The participants included Bai Qi, Shi Dakai, Huo Qubing, Ma Chao, Lu Bu, Álvaro, Lu Meng, Jia Xu and others.

Hanging in the center of the war room is the map of Morocco.

Morocco as a whole is a long and narrow strip from north to south, but all the places that are highlighted on the map are the northwest coastal areas, and only four of them are marked with eye-catching marks.

The royal city of Rabat is located in the north-northwest, just at the bottom of the arc. Not only are there 250,000 imperial guards stationed in the royal city, but there are also nearly 2 million players living there.

There are more than 200,000 combat professional players alone, and more than 80% of Morocco's player base is concentrated.

To the south of Rabat, but thousands of miles away, is the famous garden city Casablanca.

Of course, Casablanca in the game is just a lord's city. According to the information obtained by the Black Snake Guards, the regular army of Casablanca will not exceed 50,000.

Further south is the famous port city of Agadir, which is the largest territory in Morocco. The army of the territory is very close to a regular field army.

Apart from these two large territories in the south, other sporadic small territories have long been annexed and ceased to exist.

The last enemy worth noting is Tangier, which is located in the northernmost part of Morocco. Like Keypoint City, Tangier guards the throat of the Strait of Gibraltar, and its territory is dominated by the navy and supplemented by the army.

At present, Tangier's navy is not enough to pose any threat to the Mediterranean Fleet.

After all the calculations, the most threatening and difficult to deal with is the royal city of Rabat.

Although Rabat is a coastal city, the expeditionary force also traveled across the ocean. How to smoothly transport the army to land without being noticed became the first problem encountered in this war of annihilation.

You must know that this is an army of more than 300,000 people, not just two or three thousand people fighting together. It is almost impossible to achieve the goal of secretly transporting them to Morocco in batches without being noticed.

After detailed calculations by the Combat Division, with the current landing conditions, sending four field legions to the frontlines is the best that can be achieved so far. If the army is increased, it will definitely not be able to hold on, and the target will be exposed in one fell swoop. It is crazy enough to attack a country with such disparity in strength.

Just like that, Ouyang Shuo will be in charge of this expedition, Jia Xu will be the military adviser, Bai Qi will be the deputy general, Huo Qubing will be the former general, and Alvaro will be the rear general.

After more than half a month of investigation and discussion, the overall combat strategy of the expeditionary force to attack Morocco has gradually become clear, and it can be summed up as one: "Advance both land and water, attack at multiple points, and hit Huanglong directly."

The military meeting at night is to make the final task arrangement before the battle.
