Chapter 2150: Prince Ren's Worries

At this moment, Li Cong has his own reasons for being so confident, because he found that the system he obtained is really powerful. It has almost everything on it, and many things he has never seen before, but as long as it is If it can be exchanged well, it will not be difficult for me to dominate the entire planet. Even if it is bigger than I imagined, it is not impossible for me to want to dominate the universe. Of course, if I want to dominate the universe, it is very difficult for the current Li Wan It is still very difficult to say, you have to wait, now he grows too slowly, sometimes some things are not so simple, but sometimes some things are easy to do, just Just like now, Li Cong discovered that a thing that can be exchanged above is called a strengthening potion. Drinking such a thing can actually make an ordinary person have the ability of a first-level fighter, although such things can also be achieved with some potions that Li Cong is currently researching. Yes, but those things are selective and may fail, but this thing is different. There are also targets for this kind of thing, but as long as it is a person with sound limbs, you must know There is still a big gap between a super fighter and an ordinary person, just like a two-meter wall. Ordinary people may need to practice for a long time before they can pass, but for a first-level fighter, his body can pass directly without any effort, and what's more, it is carrying things, the average person carries a hundred catties It is difficult to carry things, but a first-level fighter can pull hundreds of catties like a normal person, so this thing is still very useful to Li Cong. It would be great if it could be exchanged.

However, the exchange conditions will be harsh at that time. Damn, you can only exchange one copy for 10,000 taels of silver. This is nothing. Li Cong is not short of silver. After learning the Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon, I got one million experience points, so that I can exchange one million copies, which is really too little for Li Cong's subordinates. All armed personnel add up to more than three billion people. Among them, there must be at least two billion pairs of this thing. It's just that the weight of one million is of no use to them, but it is always better than nothing. If the people of the Southern Empire are willing to negotiate peace with Cao's House of Commerce, there is also a mission on it. As long as it can obtain one-twentieth of the territorial jurisdiction of the Southern Empire. Then the task can be regarded as completed. At that time, Li Cong will be able to gain tens of millions of experience, which is a very good harvest, and he will be able to exchange tens of millions of this thing again. Not all soldiers can be promoted, but their squad leaders can be promoted, which can also allow Li Cong to implement a policy of wooing grassroots officers. In fact, many regulations are very beneficial to grassroots officers. I don’t know how to do these things sometimes, but I want to be the class monitor, because the class monitor’s right is not only to control the ten people, but also other benefits are very good, from my family members to myself , I hope I can become a squad leader, but there are only so many squad leaders in total. It is not that simple to become a squad leader. It requires continuous efforts. This kind of benign competition also makes them feel very happy not bad.

In addition to this body-strengthening potion, Li Cong also saw a huge thing, that is, the airship called Luofu. This thing can carry more than 5,000 tons. It is definitely a giant in the air. Such a thing It would be better if it could be exchanged, because Li Cong's large airship already has a capacity of 3,000 tons.

So there are no restrictions on such things, but 30 ships can be exchanged every day. Li Cong also exchanged a lot for a while, and they are all stored in his own body world. You can wait until you leave here. Put these things directly into the refitting factory, and those people will refit them. In addition to being able to transport things on this airship, Li Cong's idea is to refit them into some hedgehogs. It is said that you can't reach it, even if you can hit the sky like this, you will have no effect on our airship, so it can be regarded as a weapon of war, and there will be a lot of super chains on the airship Crossbow, this is mainly to increase the ability to attack the ground. If there is no such situation, the airship will fly faster without these things, but the combat airship and the transport airship will still be completely different. The above 5000 The load of tons can definitely allow them to do a lot of things. For example, they can wipe out the Holy Light City. Li Cong also knows the situation on the front line. He sent more than 300 airship pilots. If you want to use this airship to give the people of the Southern Empire a little bit of power, the 2,000-meter-long thing needs more than 300 people for the pilot alone. If they are all equipped with people, it is absolutely possible to install a regiment of more than 5,000 people and their equipment. up.

If such a huge thing flies in the sky, the people below will see it as if it were a huge cloud. If there is a small village below, they will not be able to see the sun at all, so they just come and drive away All of their members were also dumbfounded. They had never seen such a huge thing. For them, such a weapon was more powerful than what they had encountered before. They were all fully loaded, because no one else came, and it took more than a day for more than 300 of them to install more than 4,000 tons of bombs and crossbows, and there was support for them to run halfway on it. Food and water for a month, these things cannot be taken away temporarily, this is also a test to see if they can live in the sky for such a long time, for them, it is their dream to be on the airship, but on the airship This is a very boring thing for a month, although Li Cong invented many ways to kill time, such as the so-called Landlords and chess. But for them, it is also very boring, which is why the salary of these people is the highest in the entire military system. Aren’t many people in the army unconvinced? If you can stay there for a month If you have enough time, you can do anything, and you can also get the same salary as them. If you don’t have that ability, then I’m sorry. Many things are not as simple as you think. A lot of silver. People also paid for it. You are all on land, but others are in the sky. Long-term lack of oxygen will also make them feel very uncomfortable. The fully enclosed airship has not come out yet.

Li Cong also thought about this problem before. He felt that people at high altitudes should not be able to withstand such a hypoxic state. But when the first airship on this planet went up, there was no such idea. Because the people on this planet are not quite the same as those on the earth. Not only are the people on this planet physically stronger than those on the earth, but they are also much better at resisting stress and other aspects than the people on the earth. Just like being in the sky, people on the earth will have some altitude sickness over 3,000 meters, but for the people here, they don’t feel it at all, they feel the same as on flat ground, If it can continue like this in the future, some things will be easier to do. Just like now, the minimum height of this thing is 2000 meters, and it must not be lower than the height of 2000 meters, because this height There are already too many people who can attack them. These people must never give the enemy a chance, so they must stay high in the sky. Even if someone wants to attack the airship, it depends on whether they have the ability , Of course, magicians can definitely attack them, but because Li Cong has never established any bad relationship with magicians, some things are not so important, what Li Cong has to do now is to take a look This Luofu airship is capable, and he also came out with this airship. Anyway, he just needs a quiet place. If the Luofu airship does not need to carry people, the space on it is very large, even if Li Cong needs it. There is no problem with a presidential suite. It will take several days to fly to the place, which is enough for Li Cong to study his own affairs slowly in it, and no one will disturb him.

At the same time, the people of the Southern Empire also knew the situation of the battle in Shengguang City on the second day. They destroyed a warship of Cao's House and killed about tens of thousands of Cao's House Marines. It's okay, they can take it out and publicize it, but as for their losses, everyone is silent on this issue, because they don't have the guts to say it, and they don't have the face to say it. The difference is really too big. If this is said, people will definitely say that it was actually the people of the Southern Empire who lost the big victory. It is not the problem of the big victory they said. This is simply a joke. For them , the people of Cao's House of Merchant killed about 2 million of their navy, destroyed more than 700 ships, and killed about 150,000 people on the city walls. They were all killed. This is the most embarrassing thing for the Southern Empire. No one came to the city wall. Didn't you say that your magic cannon killed one of their warships? It turned out to be like this Killed, you did kill their warships, but there is another problem that they also killed all your magic cannons. It is said that the army of Cao's firm may be expensive, and their warships It should not be cheap, but no matter how expensive it is, it is impossible to have dozens of magic cannons that are expensive. Looking at your city wall, it looks like it is after the war. If you want to repair it, it is estimated that there will be no more than ten Don’t even think about hundreds of millions of silver. If this silver was nothing in the past, the emperor of the Southern Empire would definitely have done this with a stroke of a pen, but what about now? Do you have money?

Looking at things on land, the Southern Empire dispatched about 2.7 million cavalry and 900,000 infantry to attack the army of Cao's House of Commerce, but what happened in the end, yes, it is the same as what you said, Cao's House of Trade The loss of the Marine Corps was relatively severe. It seems that more than 10,000 people were killed and thousands of people were injured. The main casualties were because the cavalry rushed in from behind and destroyed their artillery positions. He took the shells and went to fight these cavalry desperately. Fortunately, a person from the infantry battalion came over and stabilized quickly. Otherwise, it would not be as simple as killing more than 10,000 people. There would definitely be more serious losses, and the entire army might be wiped out. Everyone has learned the lesson of the day and found a place that is more conducive to defense, and is not as proud as before. Of course, the losses they caused to the people of the Southern Empire are not small, at least more than 400,000 people Died in front of Cao's firm's position. There are about 200,000 people of the Nandi army back with fatal injuries. These things are all clear to them, and each of these people also knows that their victory is a miserable victory, and besides, it is not a victory now. It's just that the army of Cao's firm has made a transfer. Li Cong on the airship also understood after receiving the news. It seems that I was negligent about this matter, and I overestimated the combat power of my side. It is absolutely impossible for the soldiers of the two fleets to attack the Holy Light City. Since this is the case, it is enough to increase the number of troops. We are not without soldiers. When the people of the Southern Empire were celebrating their victory, Cao's firm's plan to increase the number of troops also started.

At the mouth of the Luan River, about 100 warships from the three fleets of Cao's House of Merchant have already assembled, and the total number of warships has reached 300 in total with the fleet that will be supported last time. The army also took ships to the two divisions. The airship directly transported the two divisions. When Li Cong arrived in Shengguang City, all the troops were already in place. When Li Cong's huge airship appeared, all the soldiers of Cao's House were excited and did not know what to do. What did you say, their firm actually owns such a giant, and for everyone in the Southern Empire, at this moment, no matter if they are officials, soldiers or ordinary people, they feel fear in their hearts. People who say that they are not afraid of nothing are not so powerful at this time. Looking at the giant in the sky, they can't even see the sun. How did the people of Cao's House do it? How to get it out? I really don't know how they usually study. If we fight with such a thing, can we win? This is simply impossible, but there are also many people who think that this thing is actually just a show, without much ability, and it is useless to put such a thing on it. If it really fights, what can he do? It is very difficult to move such a big thing. They are actually right. This huge airship is really not very flexible, but its attack power is very powerful. Now it can be proved Yes, Li Cong called this thing and blew it all the way from the Luan River. In the past few days, it has already caused casualties to the Southern Empire, although there was no ammunition when it arrived in Shengguang City , but also frightened them unclear.

The arrival of Li Cong also made the high-level officials of the Southern Empire feel a little cold. Li Cong has not been to the front line in person since the war has been going on for so long. Except for being a bait in the middle, he has never appeared at other times Yes, what's going on today, why did this guy come here? Could it be that something went wrong in his head? But Li Cong's appearance didn't seem to be the same. He stood on the airship and looked at the Shengguang City in front of him. His warships had already killed most of the warships in the Luan River. The army has already begun to confront each other. Li Cong brought in an army of 250,000 people from three divisions, and the original army made up 300,000 people. They started their attack. The ancient Southern Empire felt a little inadequate under such an attack. They all felt that the Southern Empire might really fall because of this, but the high-level officials of the Southern Empire did not show such cowardice. , for them, they will be more passive if they propose to negotiate again. Even if they want to negotiate, it will definitely not be at this time. Giving them a chance is the same. As long as Li Cong can fail, this matter will be much easier to handle, and Prince Ren in the rear is also watching the final battle. This guy has basically been given by Min De. It makes sense, but sometimes people are like this, and they still fear the former master in their hearts. The Southern Empire has ruled him for such a long time, and if he betrayed the Southern Empire like that, he will feel more or less in his heart. It's a little uncomfortable, so this guy is still hesitating, wondering if he should betray the Southern Empire.

Prince Ren's own life can be said to be very good. Even those princes in the capital of the Southern Empire are not as good as him, because of the blockade of materials from Cao's House, it is impossible for some rare things from other empires to reach the capital of the Southern Empire. Can you eat hard? That’s absolutely impossible. Right now, the entire empire is trying to live frugally. If you eat and drink a lot, who would join people like you and work hard for you? Let’s forget it. None of us are that conscious. Many soldiers of the Southern Empire know that this matter will definitely be more difficult to handle in the future. He is living a very good life now. The people of Cao’s House of Commerce provide this guy with good food and drink. What did Min De do in the past? of. It is dedicated to serving people. It can be said that serving this kid is like the emperor. Of course he wanted to cooperate with the people from Cao's House, but there was still some hesitation in his heart. Min De looked at this guy in front of him with disgust for a while. If it weren't for the fact that you have the title of the royal family of the Southern Empire placed here, would I be worthy to come here to beg you? Don't even look at what kind of guy you are, you don't know anything, you really take yourself seriously, if it weren't for Li Cong's explanation, Min De would probably kick the guy in front of you with one kick Turns out, in fact, it’s not impossible for the boss Min De to be the boss, but some scholars, that is, those guys will make trouble. They must be dissatisfied when a slave becomes the so-called regent, and they must let a The royal family of the Southern Empire came here, so I should just be a chief executive, hide behind the scenes and do some things, and the rights are still my own, but the blame is the guy in front of me.

Minde himself always wants to be a top-level person in power. In his heart, he actually feels that he is a talent, at least not a person who does chores for others. I will do it, I have been a general manager for my whole life, and now I am definitely going to be a person in power. Basically, everything has been done well, and the only thing that has not been done well is the Prince Ren in front of me. It has been such a long time since the beginning, and this guy just doesn’t let go. Normally, if it wasn’t for the Cao’s business, he would definitely have killed this guy. When I was in the capital, I thought this guy was not good How pleasing to the eye, if you don't have such a good background, who would ignore you, but now you can't say that when you use the guy in front of you, how can you say that the guy in front of you is the person Cao's firm needs, Ren The prince is not a fool, he understands these things very well, so this guy basically knows how to handle things when he does things, because he knows that now he is considered a rare commodity, and no one else has such a chance. Now the royal family in the hands of Cao's Commercial Bank is only their own. If there are others, they will not beg themselves. Now they have no one, so it is on their own head, and they don't need to treat them so much. You're being polite, that's for sure, but the other most important thing is to see if the people in Cao's House are capable, that is, they have to negotiate with the people in the Southern Empire. The one about myself has to be written in the contract, otherwise I will definitely not go, and the matter of being a traitor has to be considered.

"Hehe, Minde, you are always by my side these days. In fact, I understand what you want to say, and I know that your life is definitely not very easy, but there are some things you don't know. I have to understand, I really want to help you, but I have to think about it for myself. I know what the people in Cao’s House and you think. What you think is that I am a puppet on the stage. It sounds nice One point is that I am the master of this land, and I think you will give me such a good life after the work is over, just let me live my own life, and the rest of the people are probably those who protect and serve me. Transfer, everything else is probably useless, I know what you think, but you also have to know what I think, I am definitely not worried about my safety, if you dare to kill me, you probably would have done it long ago, no matter what After all, I am considered a member of the royal family of the Southern Empire. It is impossible to kill the royal family casually. It didn’t matter on the battlefield back then, but now that I am not on the battlefield, you can’t do anything to me. Just to tell you the truth, I didn’t have the guts to be a traitor at first, but recently I found out that it’s okay to be a traitor, and that’s how I live my life. And it’s pretty good, so I feel That's enough, but there must be a prerequisite, that is, the people of Cao's House must sign a good contract with the people of the Southern Empire to ensure my safety, otherwise, those killers can kill me. "It turns out that this guy is worried about this problem, no wonder.

"Hehe, what did I think you were worried about? It turned out to be the problem of killers. In the Southern Empire, the people from the Six Doors are considered powerful. But compared with the people from Cao's House, they are not even a little bit worse. I dare not say anything else, but I have a deep understanding of this. Back then, I was in the capital. My situation was much worse than yours." Minde said with a sigh. This is indeed the case. Back then, he was indeed the one who had the worst experience. Hearing what he said, Prince Ren felt a little connected with fate. I became interested, and I heard Min De continue to say, "At that time, I betrayed the court. What you are doing now is not on the same level as what you were doing at that time. What did you do to the court? Did you lose it? Absolutely not. Even if the people from Cao’s House fail in the future and you are arrested, you can just say that you were forced to do so. The biggest disadvantage is that you will lose your title of prince. What else can they do to you? Kill you? Impossible, from the establishment of the empire to the present, no imperial family has been killed, especially a prince like you, if a person without a title may lose The brain, but absolutely not now, I am different, the things I do are much better than you, so many things were broken by my hands at that time, I also know that if I fall In the hands of those people in the empire, the one with cramp and peeling skin is nothing." Minde was still very scared when he thought of this, and his head broke out in a cold sweat.

"I was also on the front line when this incident happened, and I don't know much about your affairs." Prince Ren said, if people who don't know the situation heard this, they would think that Prince Ren was busy killing the enemy at the front line. But Minde knew clearly that this guy was making trouble at the front line, if it wasn't because he was thinking about wandering around when he was retreating, he wouldn't have been brought back by the people from Cao's House, so he was so embarrassed at the moment Speaking of the front line, the court did not know how to get this idiot in front of it. He has broken a lot of things, but Prince Ren himself did not have that consciousness. In his opinion, the entire court did not. One person can go to the front line to supervise the battle, he has done a good job, and he has saved a lot of face for the royal family, and then he asked his curious question, "It must be the six doors who said such a thing. People do things, as far as I know, the few headhunters of the six doors are the skills of ninth-level fighters, this is secondary, although there are not many ninth-level fighters in the world, but for the empire It's not a problem to gather a hundred or ten. The most important thing is that they are proficient in all kinds of heresy. This is very surprising. It is impossible for ordinary people to defend against them. I know it is The people from Cao’s House helped you escape, but how did they help you?” This is what he’s most curious about, the people from Cao’s House can help Min De, but how did they help? What about luck? If this is the case, I still can’t take care of this matter. Things like luck are dispensable. You have them here now, but you may not have them here later. What should you do at that time?

"Hehe, this matter was very simple at the beginning. Several people from the six doors came, but I stood in front of you intact. As for what happened, I don't know, but the result is six All the three tigers in the first door were killed. As you know, the most powerful of the six doors in our Southern Empire are the three dragons and the five tigers. None of these eight guys are simple. It is no problem for the empire to kill a prince or something, but the three of them joined forces and did not kill me. On the contrary, they all lost their lives. You can check this carefully when you go back. Three The combat power of a tiger should be about the same as that of a dragon. I guess even if they send a dragon here, they will not be successful, because at that time they rescued me in our capital, where their power is not very strong. , the empire is the most powerful, but this is the territory of the Cao family firm, where the power of the empire can be said to have dropped to the lowest level, and basically there is nothing. Can you tell them not to come in? Just let it go, the people from Cao’s House will not let them mess around.” Min De said, it seems that there will be a breakthrough today, but just when Min De thought that this old guy was going to give in, who knows He yawned again, this was the same action he used to do before, and then he honestly said that he was going to rest, and sure enough, it was like this now, this guy was going to rest again. Min De really wanted to go up and give him a slap.

Although Min De already knew this guy thoroughly in his heart. But I still can't show it on my face. This guy is a useless thing on the surface, but in fact, the occupied area of ​​pure water will still have to rely on this guy in the future, if it can't be done well. The first thing I did at Cao's House was broken. Li Cong had already told himself. Don't be afraid to waste money, don't be afraid to waste time and various resources, the condition is that this guy has resources to become the regent. If you force him, you will leave a handle in the future. That is definitely not what Li Cong wants. As long as this guy is voluntary, no matter what the Southern Empire does, it is impossible to turn over the book. Thinking of this, thinking of the means of Cao's House , Min De can only bow his head and say that he respectfully invites this guy to rest, it is best to have a nightmare, and then he says that he will resign, just like before, he walked into this yard with great interest, and now he leaves here aggrieved, It was as if he had been tricked. In the past, Minde felt that this guy was unlearned and incompetent. Compared with other princes and kings, he was just a piece of garbage, but now he ate on this piece of garbage. A lot of losses, this guy is just playing with himself, thinking of this, Minde is also depressed to death, but there is no other way, can only continue to endure this guy, and write a letter to tell Li about the matter here. From, look at his approach.

The imperial court of the Southern Empire is also paying attention to the situation on the front line. Those people who played tricks on Wu Zuoxi have already been imprisoned. Those guys have taken measures one by one. Many people have already admitted their mistakes, but you all It brought a huge loss to the empire, but no one dared to punish him. As the number one magician in the Southern Empire, this guy has privileges no matter what he does. The Supreme Emperor of the Southern Empire is very powerful, I guess If there is a real fight, the son-in-law may not be his opponent, but the final result of the fair competition between the two sides is still unknown. It was known that they won, and now what the Southern Empire hopes is to win a not-so-great victory in Shengguang City, even if it is a small victory, so that the empire can happily fight with the people of the Cao family firm. Talking about cooperation, if one of them retreats like that, although it can be negotiated, but in that case, the effort will be too great, and it will make them all feel that they cannot bear it. In the end, it will be over. All of them are very shrewd, but Li Cong has already arrived at the front line, and he knows your abacus. With Li Cong's arrival at the front line, at least hundreds of thousands of reinforcements from Cao's House came. They will definitely send more reinforcements, otherwise they will definitely not be able to win. Many people say to use the army on the second line of defense, but many generals in the military department seem to forget it. Those people are really not on the front line. Opponents, they are all defeated generals, and the soldiers given to them without the will to fight are useless, and they have to be dispatched from the rear.

The emperor of the Southern Empire gave an order to start from the capital of the Southern Empire, and all the big cities along the way began to deploy their own troops. According to His Majesty's order, all the past should be the most elite people, and those who were vacated in place All the quotas must be replenished immediately, otherwise it will not work. These officials in the Southern Empire are also depressed. In the past, being a soldier could not be said to be a good job, but it was also a person who could eat and drink well. For business, now what? This is not a business anymore, this is a fucking thing that hurts people, who doesn't know that the death rate on the battlefield is terribly high now, even if you don't do anything, you will die on the battlefield. It's the same as in the past, training for a long time to go to the battlefield, so that there are still many chances of surviving, but now? These people can't wait to send you to the battlefield immediately. In the past, you were all planting crops in the fields, and the dirt will not kill you, but after you arrive on the battlefield, everything will kill you. When the Southern Empire conscripted soldiers, they didn’t want so many people. They don’t want an only child, or two brothers have to have one at home. It can be said that it is very humane, but looking at it now, it’s impossible. As long as it is for the above indicators, it doesn’t matter even if you are fifty, as long as you are still a normal person, those so-called conditions can be modified, as long as someone can count them. That's fine, no one will take care of the rest, and I can't take care of it.

Although Li Cong brought a lot of reinforcements, it is too difficult to cause any substantial damage to the Southern Empire by relying on this person. But this kind of people is nothing to the Southern Empire, they don’t care about these people, for them, people are everywhere, as long as they are pulled, it’s enough, as for those ships, it’s nothing, and they will be manufactured vigorously later. That's it, our Southern Empire has a lot of manpower and material resources. If we want to cause some fatal damage to the entire Southern Empire, we must win the Holy Light City. Li Cong also knows this truth, but The distance from the front line to Shengguang City is too far, so some troops from here must be used, such as those from Ersha. For the airship, half a day is enough. These people are also on the airship for the first time in their lives. Although they also know that they must have been used as cannon fodder for the people of Cao's House in the past, but to be able to get such a treatment Cannon fodder is really good, and they are all pretty good if they have such an idea. Ersha is also the first time to ride an airship. For Li Cong, the boss of Cao's House, he always feels that there is something in his impression. Yes, but I can't remember anything, as long as I think about it carefully, my head will hurt. Maybe there were some festivals in the past, but I really can't remember it now. (to be continued...)
