Section 2241 Countermeasures

The ability of both parties can be said to be better than Xuanyuan Tiangang, but this is not the time to really fight each other, is it? At this time, it is impossible for the vice president to use all his strength. After all, this place belongs to the headquarters of the Tianxiahui. I have many conflicts with the president, but I will never hold this headquarters. Just kidding, because I don't have that kind of courage. If something happens here, I really can't afford it. Even my conscience may make it difficult. Li Wei and Min De watched it with gusto. Although a few people from the Tianxiahui wanted to take advantage of the chaos and come over to make trouble, let’s forget about the people behind them. A tenth-level fighter and a tenth-level fighter Warcraft, if the world would not lose so much in the past, there would be no problem, but now it is different from that time, the world will not have such a huge force, if it is not done well, it will really hurt The fact that one of them has arrived is really unreasonable, especially that kid Li Wei. Everyone here believes that if Li Wei suffers any harm here, it is estimated that the fleets of Cao's House may be killed after he leaves later. To turn this place into flat land, those people can really do it. In the past, I heard that the navy of Cao's House is very powerful. At the beginning, they even relied on their navy. The people of the empire succumbed. In the past, they just felt a little curious about this matter, as long as they didn't log in. Can the people of the two empires succumb just by showing their abilities? This is impossible in their minds, but today they all chose to believe this matter by coincidence. They are all very clear about this matter in front of them, especially these guys in front of them. Awesome, I don't know what to say about them, so a few people came to their headquarters, especially that Li Wei, who is really brave, anyway, the situation here is a mess. Just when these people are messing around. Over there, Li Cong also started his own reform. The main reason for this reform is to face the anti-Cao alliance. First of all, he needs to store a large amount of materials, although Cao's business already has a lot of materials. up. But some things are better stored in large quantities. Cao's house purchased several huge iron mines one after another. If you always use those resources on the earth, it is estimated that there will not be enough supply there. In fact, Li Cong is now turning this place into a raw material base. There is a factory on the other side of the earth. A large amount of materials have been transported from here, and then produced on the other side of the earth and sent back. It can be said that the portal has not rested these days. A large number of officers began to be sent over. Although many military academies have been established, Li Cong found that although some people here can accept modern warfare, they will need a certain amount of time when they are actually on the battlefield. Adapted, if I used to have the time to let them adapt one by one, but now I don't have that time, it is impossible for Li Wei to discuss with them at the Tianxiahui, at most it is delaying time Or just weaken them. Once the connection is established, they will have to face a terrible situation.

In the past, the people of Cao's Commercial Bank had to face at most an empire or a certain large-scale force, and they had never been as severe as before. Li Cong knew clearly that if he couldn't persist this time, he might be in trouble in the future. They will be bullied to death by them, and a large amount of loans may not be recovered. Now they dare not take huge loans to talk about things because they don’t know what the outcome of the war is.

If you let them know that they may win, this matter will be difficult to handle. Everyone's money is real money, and they must not be allowed to just take the money away, so they must win a big victory. On the field, only in this way can they be shocked one by one. The intelligence department has already begun to investigate this matter. Although the pace of the Anti-Cao Alliance is a bit slower, their strength is very strong. I also know some important strongholds of Li Cong. It is estimated that they will face these dozen important strongholds at the beginning, and the most important one is the largest island occupied by Cao's firm overseas in the Southern Empire. Li Cong named the place Hope Island. There is an arsenal of Cao’s House and a large number of other factories here. There are about 40 million ordinary people here, and there are even more than 5 million soldiers. The large warehouse here can be seen clearly with a telescope at a place hundreds of miles away from the sea, and the climate here is also very good. Li Cong also has his own ideas about building this place as a large storage point of his own. Now what Li Cong has to do is to quickly strengthen the defense here. The intelligence personnel have wasted an unknown amount of manpower and material resources and finally know that their first goal is here. Even Li Cong really praised them. The place can indeed be said to be their own seven inches. If they can really capture this place, some systems of Cao's Commercial Bank below may be interrupted, especially the shipping system will definitely be cut off. From time to time, a few alternative places have been made, but to be honest, those places are not as good as the one in front of them. They probably have studied for a long time. There is an island not far from this island. Why? No one fancy that place, but this place? The distance is not very far, and there are no resources or anything, but this place is very important. No matter where you look at it, it is a place suitable as a base. Besides, many people also like this place The warehouse of the Cao’s Commercial Bank on the island, many people said that the people of the Cao’s Commercial Bank used to transport silver to it one by one. What kind of thing is it? They really wronged the people of Cao's House for this matter, and it is good to transport money. It's just that the silver was not placed in this place after it was transported. If you really want the silver here, you will probably suffer a real loss. Li Cong is such a cautious person, once he feels that there are so many things that are wrong in this world. He will immediately get all the things into his internal body world. Li Cong himself doesn't know how huge he is now, but he just knows how to pretend to be a mountain top or something casually, but he won't do it at all. For those who feel the pressure, what is certain is that the land distribution is really very large, and it seems that it is not full.

Before Hope Island, the navy had four squadrons with about 90 warships of various types responsible for its safety, and every day there was a squadron of five warships. Then they wandered around twenty miles around the sea. Except for their place, the surrounding small islands are like satellites on the south and north of Hope Island. Their function is to monitor the ships coming and going around. The north of Hope Island can be said to be Cao's House The commercial fleet needs a place to go. As for the place to the south. Even if you are a merchant ship of Cao's House, you can't go in casually. Because they are all in the military area, Li Cong placed about two forts and nearly forty artillery pieces in some dangerous positions in the past. At that time, in fact, so many cannons were used just to make a appearance. No one would have thought that Cao's House would have enemies at sea. This is simply impossible, no matter if it is the Four Great Empires or something else It is impossible for the organization and their navy to fight against the people of Cao's House, even if they are connected and touched, they will fail. I believe everyone is very clear about this truth, and there is no need for people who are not clear about it. This matter, this time Li Cong personally brought a few military staff officers from the earth and began to transform the defense system of the entire island. The first thing is to turn this place into a huge hedgehog. Kill them all, but just in case, if the navy doesn't stop them, the landing battle on the island will start at that time. At that time, your own people and the enemy's people will be mixed together. The artillery put on may not be scruples about this place, and Li Cong will never allow such things as indiscriminate attacks, so he wants to strengthen the defense on the island, and dispatched about All 160 large-caliber heavy guns are placed in some more dangerous places. If their navy really chooses to land in this place, it will definitely give them some good fruit to eat, and quickly mobilize Bray's army , whether it is on land or in the sea, you must take action. Landmines can definitely cause great losses to the enemy at this time, but you don’t need casualties or anything. Such things must be carried forward. These It is considered unlucky for people to meet people like Li Cong. In addition, some heavy firepower points are arranged on the beach. At this time, those cements are used. These things are very durable. Things can definitely withstand some attacks of this era. Although such a building is like tofu dregs on the earth, it is already very good to have such a job in the hands of these newbies who are just familiar with it. Yes, and it looks like they are starting to grope for these things slowly. I believe they can explain some of the things in it very clearly. If others talk like that, they probably already They were beaten out, but Li Cong said this, so they can only find some of their own shortcomings. Do they have to argue with Li Cong about this matter? Although Li Cong is not very old, he is considered to belong to the old master after all, and he must not fight against his old master. They are still very clear about this truth.

In addition to some things on the island, there is another one that is the control of the Southern Empire. Although the Southern Empire is now on the same level as Cao's Company's own territory, it is not its own territory after all. Besides, Li Cong also I feel that the Southern Empire sometimes wants to show its existence. If this is the case, Li Cong sent Wu Zuoxi to discuss the future cooperation with the people of the Southern Empire. The royal family of the Southern Empire did not participate in that. It's not that they don't want to join the anti-Cao alliance, it's just that they don't take them to play. I don't know how many people from the Cao family firm in the Southern Empire from top to bottom. If they want to draw people from the Southern Empire into that alliance, they But there is no benefit at all, and it may even be sold out by those people in the end. After thinking about it, they all rejected the people from the Southern Empire to join. In the past, the Southern Empire could be said to be the second most powerful country after the Eastern Empire, but now they don’t even have the right to join an alliance, but that’s fine. , Many people in their country have also seen the current situation clearly. Many people have asked them to unite with the people of Cao's House of Firms. It is absolutely impossible to stay out of the way. The future situation is that either Cao The people from the Cao's House of Commerce, or those who joined the alliance, they are not from the Cao's House of Commerce. But that alliance doesn't want theirs either. It seems to be ruled out, but even those who want to become the Cao’s House of Commerce still have to depend on their relationships. One of the issues Li Cong asked Wu Zuoxi to discuss with them is that the Cao’s House of Commerce will start to fully control the Southern Empire. Of course. . After the war, part of the debts of the people of the Southern Empire can be forgiven. At least the current interest is negligible. In addition, some territories of the Northern Empire and the Western Empire can be returned to the Southern Empire, especially the land occupied by the Western Empire in the last war, for the Southern Empire now. They were so depressed that they were going to die. Last time they were bullied by the people from Cao’s House of Commerce, it’s fine. Who knew that people from the Western Empire would take advantage of the fire and rob them in the end. Not bad, plus the war between the Western Empire and Cao’s House was a big loss. If there was no anti-Cao alliance, the people of the Southern Empire would probably start to settle the matter with the people of the Western Empire. Occupied Lao Tzu's territory for no reason, and still want to pretend that there is no such thing? In the past, when we were in civil strife, we couldn't care about talking to you about this issue. Now we are all better, and now we are going to give those places to us. When the people of the Southern Empire want to do something, When the news came out, people from the Western Empire turned out to be part of that anti-Cao alliance. Although they all said that it was aimed at the people from the Cao Family Firm, it had nothing to do with other people. It is for this reason that the people from the Southern Empire want to get close to the Cao's House of Commerce. It can be said that Wu Zuoxi's coming to negotiate caters to their wishes, and they all want to cooperate with the people from the Cao's House of Trade. , but Cao's House of Merchant has a very high vision. Whether you can see them is another way of saying it. You must know that the combat effectiveness of the army in the Southern Empire is not very good. To a large extent, this matter requires the use of the army. , but since the people of Cao's House of Firms promised to help them, they wouldn't let them be too bad.

The arrival of Wu Zuoxi made the people of the Southern Empire very happy. What Shangxia wants to do most now is to return them after losing their territory. Of course, they naturally don’t have the guts to hold the ones in Cao’s House. Yes, many people have already calculated it. At this time, they want to return the territories in the hands of Cao's Commercial Bank. Sometimes such assumptions will not exist. Now the military strength of Cao's Commercial Bank It is definitely not comparable to the people of the Southern Empire. Even if the anti-Cao alliance they formed is not so easy to continue the matter in front of them. In the past, the Southern Empire, the Western Empire and the Northern Empire also established the Three Kingdoms Alliance. Yes, at that time it was to contain the Eastern Empire. In the end, if it wasn't for this matter, the power of Cao's House would not have skyrocketed. It was because of the matter in front of them that they could see clearly what the so-called alliance was. What's going on, this alliance is simply a place of nonsense, it is impossible to do any serious things, all you consider is your own gains and losses, and you will not stand up when you want to lose something. You will only do it when you have to do it, that is, you will lose all your time at the last time. At that time, even if you do it, there will be no benefit. At the beginning, this is the reason why the plan was not very good. It's okay, not to mention that there were only four collaborators at the beginning, but there are nearly 20 organizations in this one. Among the 20 organizations, the Three Empires are the most powerful, but the other organizations are definitely not vegetarians. If they carve up As for the assets of Cao’s House, it is estimated that there is no problem, but if they are asked to work hard, they will run very fast one by one. At the beginning, people in the Southern Empire still felt that their own people did not join in, one by one. It's not very comfortable in my heart, but there is no such thing now. After they figured it out, they all have smiles on their faces. Such an alliance can only be fair unless everything is fair, otherwise it is A place to tell jokes. No one will really dedicate themselves in it, this is simply what fools do, so in the end they will definitely fail, especially the world will be pushed out by those people to be the leader , This is the first thing a fool will do. Their headquarters is still at sea. If the people from Cao's House find out about this, they probably won't wait for you to start doing anything. The navy of Cao's House arrived first. It can be said that the Southern Empire suffered the most from the navy of the Cao's House of Firm. This was when the navy of the Cao's House of Trade did not expand its army. Now it is completely different from that time. Now the navy of the Cao's House of Trade If you are really angry. Even if the navies of your three empires are combined. But so what? Can you destroy them? You also have ranged weapons. But is it on the same level as others? What is the power of yours, what is the power of others, are they all brains? It can be said that Wu Zuoxi's negotiation with the Southern Empire went very smoothly. The main reason is that Li Cong promised the people of the Southern Empire to help them get back the lost territory first. Of course, there are also benefits from the Cao Family Firm. The Cao Family Firm will recruit 600 divisions in the Southern Empire.

In fact, Li Cong wanted to sign up for more soldiers, but there is no time for that now. Besides, the number of soldiers may not be of any benefit. Regarding the idea of ​​Cao's House, the people of the Southern Empire Naturally, I have no opinion, and even said that as long as the people of Cao's Commercial Bank need it, there is no problem even if they go to their army to find people. Li Cong and the others also declined this. Just kidding, we are looking for the kind of innocent people. If this goes to your army, what is this for? If something happens in the future, it will not be very pleasant to say it, like this This matter must not be caught by you. In fact, people in the Southern Empire have to pay attention to this matter. Li Cong said that after the establishment of these 600 divisions, they will all be sent to the border between the Southern Empire and the Northern Empire. Yes, at that time they will be the vanguard of attacking the Northern Empire and the Western Empire. Of course, the most important thing is to take back the territory of the Southern Empire. Sometimes the minds of these royal families are very simple. If this era is lost, this is the enemy of the entire empire. How can such a thing happen? They are also descendants of dragons, how can they go to see their ancestors with such a shameful thing, but if they can get back the lost land, their crimes can be reduced a lot, but if If you can get a large amount of land, this matter will be another ending. Not only did you not lose the territory, but you have also expanded a lot. As for who owns these territories in the future, it doesn’t matter what they do. Anyway, our generation At that time, the country was so big. If you lose it in the future, it will be your business. We are the ministers of meritorious service in history, and you are the ones who lost power and humiliated the country. What is the combat effectiveness of Cao's firm's army? They all know It is very clear that back then, only tens of millions of troops from Cao's House of Merchant could fight. Their billions of troops could not find anyone in the north. So what if the team's combat effectiveness is stronger, isn't it a failure? On the border line, there are at most 200 million troops. Cao's firm has invested 600 divisions, which is about 13 million troops, plus the 200 million troops of the Southern Empire. If the territory cannot be regained That's simply a brain problem. When the two sides exchanged battle plans, they could already see that the Southern Empire just wanted to take back a dozen provinces of its own and then symbolically occupy five provinces of the Western Empire. , but the people of Cao’s House of Commerce are interested in more than 30 provinces of the Western Empire, and they want all the territory south of a big river to become Cao’s House of Commerce. Of course, your own battle plan in the Southern Empire Even if you want so many provinces, there is no way. We will just give you so much at that time. If you really give you too much, you may not be able to stand it. It is better not to give it to you. If you lost it, you will lose a lot in the end. The decision-makers of the Southern Empire were really frightened by the people from the Cao's House of Commerce. They never thought that the people from the Cao's House of Trade would Those with such a big appetite must know that there will definitely not be only a few battlefields, and there will definitely be multiple battlefields.

At present, there are only two battlefields that Cao's firm has reserved. One is the Hope Island on the sea, the other is the area bordering the Western Empire in the northern part of the Southern Empire, and the land that is in contact with the Northern Empire. I don’t know what the Northern Empire means now. Before that Although the plan to let the people of the Northern Empire and the people of the Eastern Empire consume each other is well done, it is only half completed. According to the information obtained by the intelligence department of the Cao Family Firm, this war will also cause losses to the Northern Empire. About 300 billion silver was lost, and the Eastern Empire lost a little more, that is, 500 billion silver. Such a large amount of money is naturally not a small amount for some other forces. But for these two empires, it is very easy to solve, at least it will not be hurt by this matter, but the best thing about this matter is that the navy of the Northern Empire has no way to go south to help them , and the navy left in the Northern Empire is definitely useless. Basically, the navy of Cao's House will not go so far north. Because there is no profit there. There will be no battlefield. What Li Cong thinks about at this time is what kind of battlefield he wants to open up in several other places. For this anti-Cao alliance. They want all things to be led by them. Li Cong also made mistakes before, just thinking about where to stop them, but now Li Cong suddenly understands that he is at a disadvantage On the other side, the first thing to do at this time is to make a surprise attack. In the very beginning, let them suffer the most damage. There were even three battlefields attacking at the same time, so the people from Cao's House of Commerce were going to be the first to win on one battlefield, that is, the battlefield that united with the Southern Empire. Of course, the people from Cao's House of Business couldn't be the first to shoot Yes, this must be done by the people of the Western Empire. As long as the Western Empire can be convinced in this place in the future, then the shadow of the Western Empire will not appear on other battlefields in the future. The Western Empire It must be to accumulate strength and snatch those apprentices back from the hands of the Southern Empire. I can also have my own territory on the territory of the Western Empire. This plan is the best. As for the Eastern Empire, it can only be Let’s sneak attack their naval base first, but if we go to war with the two empires at the same time, I guess I don’t have that ability, so before the first phase of the plan is completed, other things should be put aside. The first phase of the plan is completed In the future, we will take a good look at what they mean. If they can do well, this matter can continue. If there is any problem in the first stage, this matter will be delayed. Now, the subsequent war is naturally not something that you can decide for yourself. Those who oppose the Cao Alliance will definitely not let this opportunity go. It is uncertain who will be more powerful at that time. Maybe I will be the one who suffers in the end. I can only prevent such a thing from happening. Of course, I can only do my best, but I have to be fully prepared. The training time has to be doubled, and the fear is that something will go wrong.

While the people of Cao's House of Business were quickly preparing for the war, the Anti-Cao Alliance also began to formulate a series of combat plans. If Li Cong knew their combat goals, he would probably be able to sleep well at this time Well, they don't have as big a vision as the Cao's House of Commerce. This battle plan is more about things like robbery. They are all looking at the money of the Cao's House of Commerce. Emperor Xuan really regrets letting these messy guys come in. But at this time, he can't tell them to leave. He is very aware of these people's abilities. It may be difficult for them to do something for themselves, but it is very easy to do something for themselves. Things, for them, the thing in front of them is what they want to do, each of them is doing things like this, many people are already ready, they have already marked it on the map Their goals are all located in the warehouses of Cao's House within several empires. This is what they want to do to weaken Cao's House. Emperor Xuan knows that this will cause the people of Cao's House to lose a lot. Not much, but this can't shake the foundation of Cao's Commercial Bank. These floating wealth are really nothing to Cao's Commercial Bank. As long as they are the main business, they can't cut off the money. Are the gods hungry? Now the main business of Cao's House is alchemy and airships. Although the others are not bad, their income is not as good as these two things, especially the alchemy thing. I don’t talk about those things every year, and the fees charged are hundreds of trillions of silver. It is also very eye-catching, but he also knows that this matter is not something he can shake. Although the people here have gathered many masters in the world, many people here have also asked Li Cong to help alchemy. If the road is blocked. It is estimated that this alliance will collapse immediately. Many people in Xuanyun Sect over there wanted the people from Cao's House of Firm to make alchemy, let alone others. According to Xuan Tianzi's idea, it is necessary to quickly encroach on the territory of Cao's House of Trade. Just let him become an organization at the same level as Xuanyunzong. Absolutely no territory of your own. The people of the three empires also have the same idea, but the other small powers don't have such an idea, for them. They themselves have no territory. Even if they take back the territories of Cao's House, they have killed so many people and achieved that goal. What does it have to do with them? What can I get? It can be said that you can’t get anything, it’s simply useless, they won’t do such a thing, they come here to get certain benefits, no matter what your alliance is for That's okay, anyway, what we have to do is to get our own interests well, otherwise we are here to name it, and the rest of the things have nothing to do with us. What will you do in the future? You don't need to call us, we don't have the time to play with you, of course, we may contact people from Cao's House after we go out, it doesn't matter if you want to kill us, there are so many here Brothers may all do that, but I don’t know if you can kill them all by the way, if not...

It has been about a month since the Anti-Cao Alliance was established, and the people from the Cao’s Commercial Bank over there already know the basic operation of the organization. Of course, they still don’t know much about the top-level affairs. This is not Wang Quantai. As the spokesperson of the intelligence department of Cao's House, the guy came to a place agreed by an expert. This guy is the boss of a second-rate force in the Northern Empire. Their organization is called the Juhai Gang. It can be said that they rely on river transportation to eat. But because Cao's House of Commerce has almost monopolized most of the inland river transportation, their life is not very good, and now they have basically reached the level of occupying the mountain as king. It's not very good, so when Xuan Tianzi brought up this matter at the beginning, he immediately joined in. It's a pity that after the first meeting, he didn't get any benefits for the Juhai Gang. Why? It is because their power is relatively weak. There are only two ninth-level fighters and one ninth-level archer in the whole organization. Organizations without tenth-level fighters are of little use in the anti-Cao alliance, that is, inside Besides, there is no huge warehouse of the Cao’s Commercial Bank within their scope of activities, so if they want to rob, there is no place to do it. In fact, there is no warehouse of the Cao’s Commercial Bank in their territory, but there are Cao’s Commercial Bank’s warehouses. A military stronghold, the mission given to them by the Anti-Cao Alliance is to attack this stronghold tentatively. This mission almost didn’t make the guy in front of him mad. Damn it, you are attacking warehouses, no matter how many there are People defend that place, but in the end, you can all gain a lot, but I can't say anything about this place of Lao Tzu. Damn, what can I get if I take down Lao Tzu's place without any effort? Can those things be eaten? To drink? Besides, the military stronghold of Cao's House must be very well-defended, and it is impossible to let our people do anything. After the meeting, this guy started to scold his mother, and then a few people under him I got in touch with a steward of Wang Quantai from Cao's House. Li Cong happened to have no way to get their top information. I feel that such an old fox can poop clearly, whether this guy really wants to give himself news, or is he here to talk nonsense to himself, such things are very difficult for them, and many people feel that this matter is Impossible, but Wang Quantai is still here. At this time, they don’t have any news from the high-level anti-Cao alliance, so they need to do things well. Wang Quantai’s arrival also made this guy calm down. In fact, he also Thinking about this matter, I can’t do that. If I do that, I will have no morals at all in the rivers and lakes. But looking at those things on the map, what morals can I say? A military stronghold of the Cao Family Commercial Bank, you are allocated a large warehouse of the Cao Family Commercial Bank. If you really have such a little morality, you will not give me such a job. This guy said loudly to let Guan Shi come in. The members of the Juhai gang looked at Wang Quantai one by one, as if they had seen a lot of money, and they were really poor to death recently.

Wang Quantai didn't come empty-handed, he took out his hole cards when he came, because the time now can't afford to delay, what must be done now is to quickly learn some news about the Anti-Cao Alliance, he started The price offered was very high, and it was given to them in two installments. Even if they could get a warehouse of Cao’s Commercial Bank, they would not have so much. This guy read the price list that Wang Quantai handed over. Without saying anything, he pulled Wang Quantai and went to the map in front of him. The results of the first negotiation of the anti-Cao alliance were all on it. Wang Quantai took a look at this guy, and he really betrayed him. No wonder up. If you give me such a place, I will not be happy, why, you are all warehouses, the defense force is not very strong, there is a lot of oil and water, how come I got such a place, inside Nothing but soldiers. (To be continued..)
