It's a good idea to kill chickens to show monkeys, and the unreasonable demons are undoubtedly chickens, and Luo Zhengdao needs to slaughter them for the devil who is watching on the wall. The first is to prove one's strength and demonstrate a new concept of weapon systems, and the other is to take a stand and declare an uncompromising relationship with demons, who are known for their good discipline and brains, will soon grasp the intentions.

Luo Zhengdao's plan to kill chickens and set an example for monkeys is of course very well-intentioned, but the devil's chicken is not a soft persimmon, so it is not so easy to kill. Numerical superiority is the cornerstone of the continuous bloody war between the abyss and hell, and in the bloody battle, there is often a bad situation where the devils form a formation to face a demon army that is several times their own strength, and Luo Zhengdao, who has only been there for less than a year, has heard people joke that no matter when and where, if you have time to count, there will always be many more demons on the battlefield than demons. In addition to satirizing the chaotic camp of the demons, it is also a reminder to the latecomers that the demons' military superiority should not be underestimated.

"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

"Hahahaha, well done!"

Witnessing the scene of the steam tank cluster shelling and tearing apart the demon front, Luo Zhengdao did not hesitate to praise it, and Zola Hegel said in a big way:

"Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty."

Turning his head to look at the spectator camp in the distance, Luo Zhengdao said interestingly:

"Zola, do you think the devil saw our battle?"

"Of course, Your Majesty. Our liaison officers will make sure they are in the right place. ”

Luo Zhengdao didn't worry about smashing the show, but he was afraid that the audience would not be there, which would be too frustrating, so he immediately nodded and said:

"Well, order the team to close! Everyone's worked hard. ”

The human legion that rushed into the battlefield of the main continent with lightning speed inflicted heavy losses on the demon army in one fell swoop, and this newly formed mechanized armored corps also paid a heavy price in this combat operation, losing nearly half of its steam tanks and an even more staggering number of Bullfrog anti-aircraft vehicles.

Fortunately, Luo Zhengdao had already expected that the new weapons would fall off the chain, and specifically emphasized the importance of battlefield maintenance, and those vehicles that had lost the ability to act independently were towed to the rear by maintenance vehicles for repair, and several tanks that could not be towed in time were also dismantled with usable equipment, and the parts that could not be moved were destroyed, ensuring that the enemy could not get much information from them. On the whole, the battle was lackluster as a combat operation, with heavy losses and no real progress, and if the goal was to train troops and show off force, it would be barely justifiable

Qiongzhou is not far from the main continent, with the speed of the ironclad ship, even if you don't use the rocket to boost the afterburner, the time taken to go back and forth is faster than ordinary people imagine, Luo Zhengdao waited patiently at home for a few days, and the belated devil messenger finally came to visit.

"Hehehehehe, welcome to Qiongzhou!"

Luo Zhengdao, who got up to greet the guests, gave a warm welcome at this moment, which was definitely out of sincerity, not because of how friendly he was with the devil, but because he migrated human refugees and fugitive slaves from the main continent, and he very much needed the cooperation of the other party.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Majesty."

The devil's messenger who owes the gift in return is a Tevelyn, who goes to the territory of humans to operate, and it is not very convenient for pure-blood devils to be too dazzling, and this kind of relatively common devil hybrids are easier to deal with. At this time, Luo Zhengdao looked at each other with a smile and said:

"And what news has my friend, His Excellency Asmodeus, brought me?"

"Your Majesty the King, I have brought the friendship of the devil!"

Hearing the voice, the smile revealed a bit of unfathomable meaning, Luo Zhengdao said quietly:

"Is it just friendship? Hehehehe, it's a pity that what I need most now is not friendship! ”

"Your Majesty, you have the friendship of hell, do you need to worry about anything else?"

Luo Zhengdao did not try to hide his true thoughts in front of his opponent, the more he fought with a powerful opponent, the more taboo he became, and once the guide misjudged, it was not good news for both parties. Hearing this, he laughed out loud and said:

"Hahahaha, that's not necessarily!"

The rulers of ancient China used to call themselves solitary people, because they knew very well that when they had great power in their hands, no one but themselves could be relied upon. Needless to say, as a member at the top of the pyramid of the ruling class, such an awareness is a personal quality that must be possessed, and if you really don't have this awareness, it is better to change careers as soon as possible, at least you can die a less ugly death.

"I hope to open a safe passage for humans who have fled from the goblins to reach the coastal area, and we will take care of the rest, and ask Asmodeus to make a commitment to the plan to open a safe passage."

No matter how capable his subordinates are, who would dare to rule for the Devil's Lord? The Teflin envoy's answer did not exceed Luo Zhengdao's expectations, and he asked rhetorically:

"I will convey it to His Majesty, so what conditions does His Majesty the King want to exchange?"

"Well, our fleet can provide assistance to the devil and mercenaries in nearshore waters. Of course, ammunition and fuel are paid for, and I'm sure hell won't let my friends down. ”

Luo Zhengdao skillfully kicked the ball back to the Devil's side, and then he looked intently at the opponent, waiting for his opponent's response. Based on his personal experience of bloody battles, Luo Zhengdao knows very well how many resources the devil is willing to invest to overwhelm the demon army with a numerical advantage, and the so-called mortal enemy is the kind of nasty guy you can kill at any cost. Therefore, although the price offered by Luo Zhengdao was not low, for the nine-layer hell with a huge power that extended to countless planes in the multiverse, a little money or something was really not a matter.

"I will truthfully convey your intentions."

The devil's messenger gave a more vague answer, expecting that Luo Zhengdao, who didn't succeed so quickly, didn't take it seriously, and still said with a smile:

"Please don't let me down."

"Goodbye! His Majesty the King. ”

"Letter? Whose letter is it? ”

After receiving the letter from the hand of the attendant officer, Luo Zhengdao, who was buried in the paperwork, was still a little confused, and the subordinate opposite said concisely:

"Ms. Dubov's letter."

Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao was stunned for a moment, then he nodded, waved his hand to signal the attendant to step back, and muttered in a low voice while opening the letter:

“…… The artwork sent to the Waste Giant is not satisfactory? Then why didn't she come back? ”

Traveling long distances in the vast New World is not easy, even with the fastest high-speed galleons working day and night, it is only possible to reach the Sea of Storms in four months, and the Elven Wilds are still far away, and it is likely that they will need to cross the Sea of Storms, and it will be fast to complete a one-way journey in half a year. Although I can understand Vina Dubov's eagerness to think that this trip is not easy and does not want to return in vain, her stranded behavior made Luo Zhengdao feel upset for a while. That's right, the youngest daughter Tiduo can be handed over to the nanny, however, this sense of distance really makes Luo Zhengdao feel at ease. It was in a hostile and unfamiliar land, and anything was possible, how could he accept this reality with peace of mind?

After reading the letter of the half-elf beauty, it basically proved that his guess was not unfounded, and the irritable Luo Zhengdao pulled the rope, and then the crisp bell rang. The attendant pushed the door and walked into the office, Luo Zhengdao folded the letter, put it back in the envelope, and said:

"Ms. Dobov said she had a message back, but where was the person with it?"

Hearing this, the attendant officer leaned over and said:

"Oh, it's the captain, he's waiting outside, would you like to meet him now?"

"Well, call him in."

After a while, the person with the message arrived, raised his eyes to look at this middle-aged man who was very sloppy, Luo Zhengdao smiled slightly, and said:

"I am King Will Needham, what is the message from Your Excellency Captain?"

"Hello, Your Majesty, Lady Dubov has called me to tell you that she needs a more attractive work of art, and I ask for your cooperation."

It is estimated that he has not seen many big people, and the middle-aged man with a slightly restrained attitude replied like this, but Luo Zhengdao couldn't help but ask:

"Why didn't she come back to me herself?"

"This ...... His Majesty the King, she didn't say it, and I don't know. ”

Thinking of what a wise and assertive woman the half-elf beauty in his impression was, Luo Zhengdao had the urge to touch his forehead with his hand, took a deep breath to suppress the negative feelings, and said with a smile:

"Squire, arrange for him to rest!"

"Yes, His Majesty the King."

After finding a few henchmen, Luo Zhengdao explained the original situation, hoping to hear their opinions, Brando Scarlet Yan said:

"Your Majesty, Lady Dubov is a very experienced adventurer, and you don't have to doubt her judgment."

Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao, who smiled bitterly, said:

"Yes! I'm not worried about her judgment, I'm angry at her for not doing things as planned. ”

"Maybe something else has changed, and you should trust Ms. Dubov's abilities."

Zola Hegel did not shy away from his contempt for Luo Zhengdao's attempt to seize power, and the captains knew that they could not do all the sailors' work, and that it was only right for everyone to do their own duties, and that Luo Zhengdao's excessive concern for specific matters was clearly a departure from this principle.

Of course, Luo Zhengdao, who was accused in person, also knew this, nodded awkwardly, and said:

"Well, Zola, you have a point, I'm going to have to calm down."

Although she was vague about her reasons for not returning in the letterhead she sent back, the half-elf beauty wrote down her requirements for the artwork in great detail, and it seemed that she had put a lot of effort into making a difference in the distance.

In a certain way, Luo Zhengdao can also understand where Vina Dubov's urgency comes from. Jing is the most humble and ordinary. Although she has an early relationship with her student and husband as the basis for maintenance, this kind of bond is very powerless for the complex and changeable palace government, let alone take it to the court to fight for something, for this, she has to prove that she has irreplaceable value, so that she can win the initiative in the future in terms of seeking the rights and interests of her children. Otherwise, even if Luo Zhengdao has the heart to protect many things, he can't do it against everyone's opposition, no matter how strong your force is, you can't kill all your subordinates!

Realizing that it was impossible to shake the determination of the half-elf beauty, Luo Zhengdao could only cooperate according to her meaning, and muttered:

“…… A glamorous work of art? I'll have to think about it. ”
