Chapter 219 - Papermaking"Hiss!"
"What does it mean for Ling Tian to send such a large-scale warship team and not attack?" Although Emperor Renming let out a sigh of relief, he was still puzzled!
Jin Wu Shi sneered, "That"s not surprising. This Ling Tian is known as the G.o.d of War, and that"s what he calls himself on land. He is known as the strongest cavalry in the northwest of the continent."
"But on the sea, regardless of whether he is a War G.o.d or not, he has become a landlubber. Even the Steel Cavalry of the Western Lion is unable to gallop. Xiang Tian"s hands and feet are bound. No matter how capable he is, how can he use it!"
Off to the side, Industrial Vine Dragon One also nodded in agreement. "That"s right, a sea battle is still not enough for the Windcloud Nation. Even if Xiang Lingtian were to come, he would not have one."
"Even if he wants to forcefully attack us, we have the two killing weapons, the Dragon Slaying Platform and the Heaven Shaking Hammer, to guard the coast. No matter how many warships he comes with, we will still be smashed into smithereens and be smashed into iron sc.r.a.ps!"
The reason that the Windcloud Nation had successively failed in its conquest of two nations over the past few decades, besides the fact that their naval warfare was rather weak, the most important thing was that the two weapons that were used in the defense of these two nations" seas were this" Dragon Slaying Terrace "and the" Heaven Shaking Hammer "!
The former consisted of four blades about ten zhang in length. They were made from the refined gold of the deep sea, which was a specialty of the island. They were connected to a thick axle and were fixed in a high and low vortex.
Beneath the axle, it was connected by gears. At the power point, there were three black iron chains tied to the body of a giant sea eel that was trained by the Beast Master of the Rising Sun Nation.As long as a special beastmaster gave the order, the sea eel would drag the Mysterious Iron House, and the axle would move the four sabers around.
It became a meat grinder in the sea. No matter what material the ship was made of, even if it was fine iron, it would be minced into pieces!
As for the Heaven Shaking Hammer, it was invented by the South Island. It was also a type of power arm made of pure gold from the deep sea. It drove dozens of black iron chains to tie a piece of fine iron that weighed ten thousand Jin.
The giant iron hammer spun in the air and smashed into the sea from a height of several hundred feet. Under such a terrifying impact, no matter how strong the warship was, it would still be smashed into pieces!
Teng Shou Long smiled proudly and said, "Your Majesty, we have these two marine defense weapons. No matter how generous Xiang Tian is, what can he do to us, no matter how many warships he has?""Furthermore, there is still that powerful existence in our Strait of Two Islands. Everything is safe!"
Jin Wudi also cupped his hands and promised the two emperors solemnly.
"Your Majesty, please be at ease. As long as the enemy troops are unable to reach the island, the longer the warship stays, the longer the barracks are stationed, the greater the cost will be."
"I"ve heard that Xiang Ling has brought a huge army of one hundred thousand this time. The rations they eat every day is a huge expense, so we"ll just wait and see who can"t hold on first."
"At that time, even a barbarian like Xiang Ling in the north will have to scram back to the northwest without even a blade of gra.s.s growing."
After Emperor Renming and the Southern Emperor Li Zongxi heard this, the worry on their faces was finally gone. They now revealed complacent expressions.
So what if the Wind Cloud Nation is the strongest country in the northwest of the Tianxuan Continent? Similarly, it can"t do anything to our two countries in the south sea. It seems like Ren Ming and the Li Clan can flourish for tens of thousands of generations!
"Right, Your Majesty. General Jin and I have one more matter to report this time, and I hope that Your Majesty can agree to it!" Suddenly, Gong Teng Long spoke.
"Please speak, generals. As long as the Southern Emperor and I can accomplish this, we will definitely agree!"Teng Long turned his head to look at the open hall, then looked around. He didn"t say anything for a while.
Emperor Renming understood and immediately ordered the servants to close the hall. All of them were dismissed, leaving behind a few servants who could be considered his trusted aides.
"Your Majesty, we reported to the inner circle of Binzhou County that Xiang Tian is currently building a large granary in a dense forest five kilometers away to the north of Binzhou County. Furthermore, he has already acc.u.mulated a large amount of fodder and materials."
"Oh, building a granary? That doesn"t seem to be strange at all." Emperor Renming had some doubts.
The Southern Emperor Li Zongxi raised an eyebrow and said, "That"s not right. When Xiang Ling went south, he once said that he wanted to suppress both our countries for three months. If the latter doesn"t place their grain in the three counties, why would he set up another granary? Xiang Tian probably wouldn"t do such an unnecessary thing."
"His Majesty the Southern Emperor is right, I"m afraid this is just Xiang Tian"s little trick."
"Three months to suppress the two countries of South Island and Sun Dazhen was only a way for him to put pressure on us. He secretly built granaries in order to defend the South Sea for a long time!"
Teng Qingshan lowered his eyes, which shone with a bright light, as if he had seen through the mystery at first glance.
Emperor Renming came to a realization. When Xiang Ling had released the news of suppressing the two countries in March, it had indeed caused panic among the people of both countries. The matter of many citizens fleeing the island had worried the two emperors for a long time.
"So that"s how it is. I never thought that this Ling Tian would be so treacherous!"Li Zongxi snorted coldly, "Hmph, the Empire of Feng Yun has not been able to suppress us for over a hundred years. He, Xiang Tian, is just a member of the imperial family that was praised as a G.o.d. You want to destroy us in three months, you are truly arrogant and conceited! "
"General Ku Teng, General Jin, you two have reported that Xiang Tian has secretly built a granary, so he must have made some moves."
"That"s right, Your Majesty. General Teng and I are planning to send troops to split up and pa.s.s through Cloud Strait and Jinsha Lake respectively. We will bypa.s.s the tropical forest around Yunjian Continent and ambush Xiang Ling"s grain camp!"
"However, for this sneak attack, we need to use the fastest speed possible to launch it. Therefore, we need His Majesty to a.s.sign a few other Beast Master level experts to us to use the Lightning Sword Fish as a vessel to increase our speed!"
Hearing this, Southern Emperor Li Zongxi and Emperor Ren Ming looked at each other and spoke at the same time!"Yes!"
"The divine light of our emperor!" Teng One and Jin Wudi stood up at the same time and kowtowed!
Looking at the two generals in the main hall who were carrying the burden of the two nations, Li Zongxi said sincerely, "We have two generals guarding the South Island and Rizhao. We have nothing to worry about!"
"I am indebted to the two emperors for your trust!"
"Haha!"
For a time, the officials and officials looked at each other and laughed. Their laughter resonated throughout the hall!
It was at this moment that an urgent report came in from outside the hall. The news immediately traveled into the main hall and was reported in front of the two great generals and the two great emperors.It turned out to be on the surface of the South Sea. Storm Country suddenly sent out many warships to transport a ma.s.sive amount of straw, throwing it between Storm Nation"s sh.o.r.e and the two countries. The surface of the water was completely covered with floating straw, forming a single piece!
"En!" When Li Zongxi and Emperor Renming heard the report, they were stunned. They obviously didn"t understand what had happened.
Jin Wu and Tendon Dragon One also frowned, deep in thought. They didn"t know what Xiang Tian was up to at this moment.
After a moment, the thoughtful Dragon One suddenly raised an eyebrow. He slapped his knee and laughed out loud!
"Haha!"
Everyone looked at him in surprise. He couldn"t help but laugh as he said, "These barbarians of the north actually want to fill the sea with straw. When the tide descends, they will rush to the island from the coast. Haha!""This group of barbarians really have a whimsical imagination. They don"t know the real situation of this sea. Not to mention, even after the tides have gone down, the sea level is still not low. There is no way to go forward."
"Even if they can walk, we can release the Bone Devouring Insects in the swamp. Their huge army of one hundred thousand can be used as nourishment for these insects!"
The two emperors had also come to their senses instantly, their expressions taunting.
As expected, even though Xiang Tian was somewhat resourceful, he was still a bit too conceited when it came to fighting battles in the sea. Even a huge army of a hundred thousand soldiers would find it difficult to create a climate for him to do so.For a time, the four of them had victory in their hands. It was as if they could see the scene of Xiang Tian"s tragic defeat!
Teng Qingshan said confidently, "Your Majesty, I shall take my leave first. This time, we will not only sneak attack Ling Tian"s grain camp, but we will also face him head-on. We will have to kill all of his hundred thousand men on our two coasts."
"Hmph, I"m going to use my blood to teach Storm Nation a b.l.o.o.d.y lesson. I"m going to teach him, Xiang Tian, to be wise and sweep the earth from now on!"
After that, Gong Teng Long Yi and Jin Wudi left together. Only Emperor Ren Ming and Southern Emperor Li Zongxi remained in the main hall. After the two of them discussed the battle with the two generals, their expressions became much more relaxed.
There was no one left or right. Emperor Renming stood up from his Dragon Throne. He looked over with his one eye which was flashing. At this moment, he was leaning on another Dragon Throne, the Southern Emperor Li Zongxi.The latter seemed to sense what was going on, and looked up at Emperor Renming. Compared to the young woman and her gentle eyes, the water rippled as she looked at him in a charming and gentle manner.
Emperor Renming strode forward and sat down beside the Dragon Throne. He grabbed Li Zongxi"s white arm and pulled it in front of him!
"Ah!" Li Zongxi cried out in a tender voice as he leaned against Emperor Renming"s chest. His soft arm was like a water snake as it lightly wrapped around Emperor Renming"s waist!"Ren Ming, wait until after this battle. The Empire of Feng Yun will not dare to raise the thought of a conquest to the south again. At that time, we will be able to enjoy peace and stability forever. We will no longer be afraid."
Li Zongxi"s voice was flirtatious and sharp, his eyes were filled with tenderness!
Hearing this, a trace of coldness appeared in Emperor Renming"s eyes. He tightly held Li Zongxi in his arms as he spoke with determination.
"Ah Xi, didn"t you say before that you loved seeing Dragon City"s fireworks? I promised you that I would take you to see them again. They"re at the Dragon City Imperial Palace, in that tallest and most beautiful Star Plucking Pavilion!"
"I want the Dragon City to belong to you and me. I want you to see the most beautiful and gorgeous fireworks in the world!"
"But Ren Ming, how could we be a match for the Wind Cloud Country? Back then, the late emperor and the grand elder made an agreement that both of us would never be able to set foot within a thousand miles of Dragon City!"
"Humph!" What kind of shameful agreement is this? Currently, the Emperor of the Empire of Feng Yun has sent his War G.o.d"s younger brother, the "Blood Butcher", here. He clearly wants to kill us all quickly.
As for how to defeat Storm Nation, hmph, as long as Xiang Tian is defeated in this battle, we can send an army to the north. We"ve trained in the "Reverse Scale Army" for so many years.
Li Zongxi looked at Emperor Ren Ming, his face full of ambition, as he spoke with worry."But on land, Xiang Tian and the Snow Wolf Cavalry, these are armies that can repel even the barbarians of the north. I"m afraid our Inverted Scale Army cannot defeat them."
Emperor Renming stretched out his right hand and used his thumb and forefinger to gently pinch Li Zongxi"s chin. He said with a pleased look on his face, "Ah Xi, have you forgotten about the one in our Blood Dragon Abyss?"
Hearing this, Li Zongxi was startled, he exclaimed: "Ren Ming, you want him to attack the Wind Cloud Country together?"
"That"s right!"
"But … he was left behind by our ancestors." How can we easily bring out the guardian G.o.ds of both countries! "
"Don"t worry, the honored Imperial Advisor told me last night that this Saint Beast has given birth to two babies!""What!" Li Zongxi looked at Emperor Renming in surprise!
The latter laughed complacently, "Relying on the heaven and earth treasures that our two nations have been feeding on for the past hundred years, the potential of these two cubs that have been growing for a long time is even greater."
"The Imperial Advisor has already started to tame two babies. In less than a hundred years, we will have two Saint Beasts guarding our side. That"s why we are sending out the Saint Beasts. There is no need to worry!""This …" Li Zongxi still wanted to say something …
Yet Emperor Renming had covered his lips with his broad palm.
"Ah Xi, let"s not talk about this anymore. Our dream will come true. When that time comes, we will be the overlords of this place. We will no longer have to care about worldly matters. Whoever dares to speak anymore will be beheaded by us!"
A cold light shot out of Emperor Renming"s eyes. He exuded a domineering aura as he pointed his sword at the world!
Li Zongxi was still worried. However, when he thought of how he could lean into Emperor Renming"s arms without any fear in front of the world, he felt an incomparable sense of hope.
All of a sudden, the words of dissuasion that were about to come out of his mouth were unable to come out.This world, could not be at peace. It only depended on who was the sacrifice under the golden age, and who was the G.o.d that ascended the altar!
