Text Chapter 705 Undercurrent
Longxing Island, the new capital of the Yihe Kingdom, is not a big city, not even as large as any of the main city-level counties in the south of the Five Ridges, but there is still a magnificent palace built in this capital, but this palace is no longer Qin Yi lived alone in the palace, and at the same time, Xiyang Hou Manning, Ding Xi and other nobles also lived in this palace. Qin Yi knew that today is different from the past, so naturally he would not be too penny-pinching.
The island is in the north, and the sea breeze whipped up layers of waves, constantly beating the bare rocks. A group of volunteers with bows and arrows sat on the rocks and chatted listlessly.
"Why would anyone come to this unshitty dragon-shaped island? The empire is busy fighting against the demons, how can they have the energy to manage us? Commander Long is really serious, let us stand guard in this kind of place, the sea breeze blows people Like a mummy."
"That's right, we've been in Longxing Island for so many years, we can only eat some fish, shrimps and crabs, etc. I really miss the days of Bailing City. Those that fly in the sky, those that run on the ground, and those that grow in the fields, can't eat anything. Looking at it now, it’s just one day at a time.”
The young archer lay on the reef, put his bow and arrow aside, looked at the blue sky and white clouds, and said with a smile: "I heard that a few years ago, the empire sent a general to negotiate a peace. When you return to the empire, you are willing to let go of the past, and you are right about Dadutong, why must you insist on living and suffering here.”
The veteran on the side couldn't help frowning: "Shut up, do you dare to say such a thing? Let the general hear you and you will die. Let me tell you, we can continue to be our leading soldiers when we return to the empire, eating food, paying and suppressing Bandit, but what about Dadutong? He killed Qin Yin’s father, Qin Jin, with his own hands. Do you think Qin Yin will let him go for this blood debt? Even if Qin Yin is willing to write it off, Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, Xiang Yu and others will not let it go! Besides... Long Shuai besieged Lanyan City and forced Chu Huaimian to die for his country. With the friendship between Chu Huaimian and Lin Muyu, do you think Qin Wang Lin Muyu would let Long Shuai live? ?”
The young archer was dumbfounded, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Is it the only way to die forever?"
"Perhaps, when Long Shuai and Da Dutong are both dead, the hatred will be resolved and it will be the day we return to the empire."
"well……"
When the two were feeling emotional, a sentry not far away suddenly pointed to the distance and said: "Look, there is a warship on the sea, it is... a member of the Demon Race?!"
"Blow the horn and assemble the army to prepare for the battle!" A centurion shouted.
"yes!"
The sound of the conch horn sounded, and nearly a thousand soldiers gathered in a blink of an eye, but there were only so many. There were not many troops on the island, not to mention that this was only a corner of the dragon-shaped island.
The ballistas and stone cannons aimed at the distance one after another, and the reeds of the machine were already taut, ready to strike a fatal blow to the warships in the distance at any time.
Everyone's eyes were full of nervousness. The Yihe Kingdom has not fought a war for five years, but now it is about to usher in a powerful demon clan? There are about 20 warships of the demon race on the sea, and the ugly appearance of the armored demon standing on the deck can be seen from a distance.
But at this moment, a man jumped off the warship and came riding the waves, with a saber hanging from his waist, which had not been unsheathed, and he wore golden general stars on his shoulders, a total of four, which were commander-level. General, a group of Yihe soldiers were startled. It was none other than Qianfeng, the first marshal of the Demon Race.
"Don't do anything, aim, no one can shoot arrows!" said a commander with his eyes narrowed.
The light wind drifted in, stepped on the void, and came to the front of the Shitou sentry camp, looked around, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect... the Yihe Kingdom, which ruled half of the country, has fallen to such a point! I am the demon clan Your Marshal Qianfeng is invited, where is your Marshal Long?"
"Marshal Long?" The commander-in-chief opened his mouth and said two words dryly. This was the first time he had seen the senior commander of the demon clan, and he was the most intelligent and brave commander of the demon clan in the legend. The shock is self-evident.
Qianfeng didn't think it was disobedient, and smiled lightly: "Someone who can talk, go and invite Long Qianlin."
At this moment, the sound of horseshoes came from the mountains of the island, and in a blink of an eye, a line of Yihe cavalry came galloping, led by Long Qianlin in golden armor!
There are only more than one hundred cavalry in this column. It is no wonder that the horses on Longxing Island are all brought from the inland. The number is very small and very precious. The cavalry in the entire Yihe Kingdom will not exceed 5,000 now. It is conceivable that it is expensive.
Long Qianlin got off his horse, with a smile on his face: "See Marshal Qianfeng, I didn't expect that we would meet here."
"I didn't expect to meet again like this."
Qianfeng smiled slightly: "The old enemy in the past has become an ally now, life is like a play, hahaha..."
After waiting for a while, Qianfeng's warships all docked. He brought more than 2,000 people, most of them were high-level demons, and a small number of armored demons. After all, the IQ of armored demons is too low. I can't help it, but the high-level demons are much more reliable.
...
Dragon-shaped island, Yihe Kingdom Hall.
Qianfeng nodded and signaled to his subordinates, and immediately a group of high-level demons presented their gifts in a row, Qianfeng said with a smile: "Please look at the general, these are prepared for you by the Yihe Kingdom." Gift, this is the legendary Beast Sword, cut iron like mud, this is the dome jasper cup, there are only two in the whole world, both are here, this is the best Mobei Yunjin, and this, this is the top-grade Tie Limu , a total of one hundred catties, can be used for carving, and emits a fragrant fragrance all the year round, which can prolong life."
Qin Yi sat on the throne with a pale face. He was 61 years old, but in the short five years after the defeat of the Yihe Kingdom, he seemed to have aged ten years. Qin Yi's self-cultivation was not high, He has not even stepped into the Heavenly Realm, so the most important thing for Qin Yi now is to prolong his life, and only by living longer can he have a chance to return to the Broken Cauldron Realm.
"Thank you, Marshal Qianfeng, for the generous gift. Yihe Kingdom can't repay you."
"You don't have to be polite." Qianfeng had a carefree smile on his face, "The Protoss and the Yihe Kingdom have formed an alliance, so regardless of you and me, this little gift, Dadu doesn't dislike it, and Qianfeng is flattered." gone."
"Well, come on, show Marshal Qianfeng a seat."
"yes!"
Two attendants came over with a carved wooden chair, and Qianfeng sat down happily.
Ding Xi, Long Qianlin and even the elderly Man Ning were standing on the entire hall, but Qian Feng and Qin Yi were sitting, their dignity was obvious.
Ding Xi is also much older, not as young as before, coughed, and said: "Marshal Qianfeng, the empire is now powerful, and the Long Dan Camp under the command of Lin Muyu, the King of Qin, claims to have 200,000 soldiers, and it is in Tongtianxing Province. The main force of your army has been defeated, and the magic crystal cannon is amazingly powerful, I wonder how Marshal Qianfeng plans to cooperate with the Yihe Kingdom and start a counterattack against the empire?"
"Ding Shuai asked a good question."
Qianfeng smiled and said: "However... before that, I want to know how much strength Yihe Kingdom still has, and whether it can really help the Protoss, eradicate the Dragon Dan Legion, and regain the dominance of the Broken Cauldron Realm Continent."
Qin Yi glanced at Ding Xi, and motioned for him to speak.
Ding Xi raised his eyebrows and said: "Although the Yihe Kingdom is dormant on the Longxing Island, it is still a strong army. We now have a total of 2,000 warships, 60,000 cavalry, 250,000 infantry, and 5,000 crossbows." 3,000 ballistas and ballistas, and countless siege equipment, and more than 100 million grain and grass, enough for 300,000 troops for three years!"
"Oh?" Qianfeng couldn't help laughing, stood up and clasped his fists and said, "Then, I will take my leave."
Qin Yi hurriedly said: "What is the meaning of Marshal Qianfeng?"
Qianfeng smiled and said: "Since the Yihe Kingdom is so strong and strong, there is no need for our God Race covenant at all. You just kill Lingkong Province and go all the way to take Feng Jixing's old nest and take back Lingnan."
Qin Yi couldn't help blushing, and said, "The marshal was joking, this..."
"Please tell me the truth, tell me the real strength of Yihe Kingdom." Qianfeng said calmly, "Dragon Island lacks food, equipment, medical care, etc. I don't know how many soldiers have died of illness in the past few years. I have a little understanding of these. I heard, Marshal Ding Xi, only by being honest with us can we discuss the matter of the covenant, isn't it?"
Ding Xi rubbed his nose and said: "Then let's tell the truth, Yihe Kingdom still has 120,000 soldiers to fight, 8,000 cavalry, and the rest are infantry and navy, and our iron ore is very insufficient. , so most of the equipment is rotten and cannot be reused, and new weapons and equipment are unsustainable, this is our main problem now."
"Well, that's right."
Qianfeng smiled happily, turned around to look at Qin Yi, clasped his fists and said, "Dadutong, the Protoss has a preliminary understanding of the origin of the magic crystal cannon. We can share this technology with the Yihe Kingdom. In addition, I will send more cargo ships to transport a large number of them." Give the Yihe Kingdom the weapons and equipment you have, but you must also show your sincerity."
"How does the Protoss need Yihe Kingdom?" Long Qianlin's eyes turned cold.
"Once you get the weapons, food, and warships, you must listen to my order to attack the Winter Frost City in the Lingdong Province from the coast, so as to contain the southern part of the Gentian Army. At that time, the Protoss will kill the Tongtian Province , a large-scale counterattack, once the big event is completed, we will use the Qinling Mountains as the boundary, the gods will get the north of the Ling, and the Yihe Kingdom will get the south of the Ling, divide and rule the world, how about it?"
Qin Yi was a little moved, stood up and said, "As Marshal Qianfeng wishes!"
"good!"
Qianfeng nodded: "The covenant is hereby signed, and we hope that our two countries will work together to completely defeat and erase the brutal empire from the mainland."
"Um!"
A turbid current spreads slowly on the edge of the continent, and the mountains and rivers are infinitely beautiful, so many heroes go forward and die for their predecessors.
...
Sunset City, in the silent night, under the flickering candlelight, Feng Jixing held the military book in his hand, staring at the writing on it, when suddenly a gust of cold wind blew open the door.
"Um?"
Feng Jixing looked outside, and saw the guards quickly closed the door, saying: "Your Highness, the night wind is too strong."
"Is there any latest news about His Royal Highness King Qin and Princess Tang Xiaoxi?"
"not yet."
"Tell me as soon as you have it."
"yes!"
