Chapter 1163: Conquering the Islands
"but……"
After Liu Shuang nodded, he added: "It is said that a group of adventurers have gone to the Eastern Islands to live together. The strength there may be more powerful than we imagined. In the next period of time, you will vigorously supervise the construction of warships. I will issue a recruitment order. , summon more adventurers to attack the Eastern Islands with you, and be sure to capture these islands in one battle."
I thought about it and said, "After all, the Royal Forest Army is the army of the Tianling Empire, so I must ask Luo Qianlin for instructions before using the Royal Forest Army. After conquering the princes' islands, the sovereignty of these islands will belong to Tianling City, but all resources will be supplied to Hanhuang Dragon City, is this okay?”
"Well, it's up to you to decide, so prepare early!"
"good!"
…
The next moment, there was a system ringtone echoing in the air——
"Ding!"
System prompt: Dear players, please note that a recruitment order has been issued in the Hanhuang Dragon City territory, and a large number of players will be recruited to participate in the war against the Eastern Princes Islands. The warships will set off at 12 noon tomorrow. Players who want to participate in this naval battle expedition can do so. Go to Hanhuang Dragon City and talk to any NPC in Hanhuang Dragon City to obtain a recruitment quota. The maximum number of people is 200,000!
…
With 200,000 people, plus the NPCs of the Royal Forest Army, the expedition will probably exceed 300,000 people. I don’t know if it will be possible to conquer the vassal islands.
At this time, Li Mu's voice came from the guild channel——
"Xiaoyao, was it you who triggered this recruitment order?"
Me: "Well, what's wrong?"
Li Mu said: "As far as I know, after the defeat of Qingyan City in the Japanese and Korean war zone, some of the players went to the Ice and Fire Wasteland, some went to the direction of Wangyue Valley, and some took merchant ships to develop in the princes islands. The number is about 1.5 million people. , distributed on several larger islands in the Princes Islands. We are going to attack the Princes Islands this time, and these people are the ones we must face. "
"There are so many 1.5 million people..." I was startled and said, "It seems that it is necessary to use the Dragon City army in Fanshu City."
Wang Jian smiled and said: "Are we going to beat up the drowned dog?"
Lin Xiaowu: "Obviously, it's like this, which makes people lose their last foothold."
"It's not just that." Li Mengyao smiled and said: "In a few hours, there will be another recruitment order. The task triggered by Fang Geque is to go to the Sea of No Return to kill the sea monsters. Recently, the sea monsters Come back to make trouble and serve the strange devil."
I said: "Anyway, those who slay the dragon should try their best to participate in the conquest of the princes' islands if they can. The benefits will definitely outweigh the disadvantages. I will continue the preparations."
"Um!"
…
He took out the scroll to return to the city and immediately returned to Tianling City.
Berry pulled my cloak and chased me with a smile: "Brother, wait for me."
This doesn't look like a mount at all!
In desperation, I put her into the riding space and chatted with her. After a few minutes, she finally showed a hint of fatigue and fell asleep sweetly in the riding space.
I went straight to the palace and flew towards the palace hall. The moment I stepped into the hall, I found many important generals and ministers there. It seemed that some kind of meeting was being held. When I arrived, Luo Qianlin stood up and said with a smile: "Master Li is back!"
I said respectfully: "Your Majesty!"
Luo Qianlin smiled slightly: "Master Li, how should we reward the generals who have outstanding achievements in resisting Canglan's revenge attack last time? What do you think?"
I looked at the merit list on the Da Zhi Ge interface and said, "Tantai Yu, the commander of the Yanlong Army, and Lin Qiong, the commander of the Tianqiong Army, have the most outstanding merits. Your Majesty can award them on your own."
Luo Qianlin nodded and raised his voice: "Come here, promote Tantai Yu and Lin Qiong to the rank of general!"
There are two generals again. Luo Qianlin is indeed very generous in terms of rewards.
I thought about it and added, "In the battle of Wangyue City, the performance of the Autumn Harvest Army was also remarkable. Commander Liang Yin led the troops well and should be rewarded. I think the Ministry of War still lacks a minister. How about promoting Liang Yin to the rank of Minister of War, and returning the post of commander of the Autumn Harvest Army to Deputy Commander Zhou Ning, what do you think, Your Majesty?"
In fact, it is indisputable that he is better than Liang Yin in leading troops with a spear.
Luo Qianlin obeyed my advice and nodded: "Okay, as Master Li said, promote Liang Yin to the rank of minister of the Ministry of War, and then promote Zhou Ning to the commander of the Autumn Harvest Army, and then to the general of the country!"
Liang Yin was promoted and demoted secretly, but he had nothing to say. Huaqiang Yiju was not here, but he must have received the news about his promotion to the military. He immediately sent me a message: "Ha, I finally have the power again. Thank you, Xiaoyao!”
"You're welcome, keep busy."
"good!"
…
After asking for military power for Huaqiang, I continued: "The Ice Ridge Mountains on the mainland, the southern territory of the Sea of No Return, from Wangyue City to Bahuang City are all our territory, but further east, the islands of the princes in the East China Sea have never been It belongs to us, and even the archipelago princes have surrendered to Zeyuan City, wasting great land and resources, so I want to lead the Royal Forest Army to expedition against the archipelago princes, and bring all the land on the hundreds of archipelagos into the empire's territory, and then the food and weapons on the archipelago I wonder if your majesty will have any objections when it is provided to Hanhuang Longcheng nearby?"
Luo Qianlin groaned and said: "The terrain of the archipelago is complex. Master Li needs to be more careful. Hanhuang Longcheng and our Tianling City are at odds with each other. It is reasonable to help them. Master Li, as the chief executive, this matter Just do it with full authority, the lonely king has no objections!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
I turned to look at several officials from the Ministry of Works, and with a hook of my hand, an old man ran over immediately, with a flattering face, and said with a smile: "Da Zhige, do you have any advice for me?"
"How many warships are there in the East China Sea, Luhu Lake, and Wushen River in Tianling City?" I asked.
He smiled with wrinkles all over his face, and said: "In the past few months, the empire has been fully supervising the construction of warships and transport ships. There are about 800 ships in total, and there are still more than 200 warships being cast and will be completed soon."
I smiled slightly: "It must be completed within three days and all delivered to the East China Sea Port. Did you hear me?"
"Yes, Da Zhige!"
...
I looked at the warships owned by the Imperial Guards. There were nearly 200 ships in total, and each ship could carry an average of 500 people. Basically, all the troops of the Imperial Guards could be taken there.
As for the players, they can use the warships from the Ministry of Industry. This time, almost all the sea ships in the Tianling Empire were mobilized. They would never come back unless they planted the Tianling Empire's royal flag on all the archipelagoes. Moreover, this is a version of the task-type conscription mode. In fact, I am not worried about failure.
Unless... unless the people of Jiuxiao City also sent troops to interfere, but Moshan should not be so confused.
At night, I went to the Wushen River and ordered the Royal Guards to carry enough dragon crystal cannons and shells on each warship. Even on each of the 10 main warships, a divine cannon was equipped. With such a magical weapon, there is no need to worry about the archipelago not surrendering. In the middle of the night, the Royal Guards' 200+ warships had already gone to the east coast, and almost all of them participated in the war.
Later, I returned to Hanhuang Dragon City and persuaded Liushuang to use 30 dragon knights. The dragon knight captain Qingluo led the team and went with me. For the habitat of these 30 dragon knights and the dragon, 10 warships were prepared for them!
…
I was busy until late at night. I looked at the participants in the conscription mode and found that there were already 200,000 people. More than 50,000 of them were dragon slayers. Many people who were close to the water were familiar with the Qingmen of Hanhuang Dragon City and even leveled up near Dragon City. It was too fast. When other guilds were still hesitating whether to participate, I had already encouraged everyone to participate in this expedition.
In the middle of the night, I felt sleepy, so I called Lin Wan'er and Dongcheng Yue to go offline and rest.
…
When I woke up, it was almost noon. I didn't set an alarm clock just to let myself sleep more. I stayed in Beichen Temple for three days and almost exhausted my physical energy.
When I got up, Lin Wan'er and Dongcheng Yue were there, which reminded me that today was the weekend. They didn't have to go to work, so they could happily go to conquer the vassal islands together.
At noon, I had a full meal and went online on time at 11:40!
…
When our group arrived at the harbors of Tianling City and Bahuang City on the east coast, there were already crowds of people here. All the players who participated in the conscription mode had already started to board the ships. One after another, fully loaded warships slowly left the harbor. Li Mu, Wang Jian, Ran Min and others were sitting on a warship a hundred meters away from the shore. They opened their arms and greeted us, laughing.
Lin Wan'er pouted: "I don't know why they are so happy, hum..."
Dongcheng Yue asked: "Are we queuing up to board the ship too?"
"No."
I looked at the two of them and said, "You can come with me to take the main warship of the Imperial Guards. There will definitely be no problem with three more people."
"Okay!"
The two girls instantly felt a sense of privilege. They went to the port of the Imperial Guards with me. Han Yuan and Xiao Li were already waiting respectfully and greeted Lin Wan'er: "Good afternoon, Princess!"
Lin Wan'er smiled slightly: "Okay."
The two generals immediately rubbed their hands in a very unpromising way and felt proud.
"Get on board and get ready to go."
"Yes!"
...
A few minutes later, we were already standing on the main warship of the Imperial Guards, and as the commander-in-chief of this long-distance expedition, the formation and route of a total of 1,052 warships had appeared on my Da Zhi Ge interface, but they were not fully prepared yet, and they would be re-arranged when they needed to enter the deep sea.
More and more players boarded the ship, and warships appeared densely on the sea. At about 12:20, with a "beep", the Da Zhi Ge interface reminded me that the personnel were ready, and there were dragon roars in the air. Qing Luo led 30 dragon knights hovering in the sky to escort our expeditionary force.
With a cannon shot, all the warships raised their sails and set off!
