Chapter 320: It's easy to destroy, but it's hard to build
The first key to the success of the decapitation operation is to attack quickly, act decisively, and retreat resolutely, Luo Zhengdao will not forget the main points of the special operation, and the reason why he did not launch rockets to bombard the goblin command at the first time is because he is not sure which room the goblin commander lives in. At this time, Luo Zhengdao saw the goblin adjutant who trotted all the way to report the situation through the vision of the telescope, and the mysteries in front of him were naturally no longer secrets, and he smiled and flicked his fingers to light the fuse. Suo, without even looking at the result of the attack, turned around and disappeared into the night.
Anyway, Luo Zhengdao has already reaped the benefits tonight, he has turned the whole Hechuan upside down, and the only thing to do now is to make sure that the bag is safe, and continue to wait for the result here? You've done everything you need to do, and if you don't run away, what are you thinking?
The world is never fair and fair, and it doesn't mean that you put in great effort and sacrifice, and then there will be gains. I'm sorry, but there's no causal relationship between your efforts, sacrifices, and success. Among those who insist on working hard silently, some are proud, some are waiting for hardship, and some are memorizing.
Compared to the high-spirited Luo Zhengdao recently, his old friend Gaode Needham's life is much more difficult, just as a certain time-traveler has been worried from the beginning, once his own power is infiltrated like a sieve by the financier behind him, this kind of puppet at the mercy of others is definitely not very comfortable. Although the Elven Federation, which has been hidden behind the scenes, has acquiesced to Gao De's management of a small part of his own land, most of the military and administrative institutions under his command have become a hall of words for the elven advisors to be in charge, and Gao De does not even dare to guarantee that he and those advisers will issue an opposite order at the same time, which side will the grassroots soldiers obey, such an unbearable living situation makes him feel ashamed and uneasy, and he can't help but feel inexplicable humiliation.
No matter when and where, opportunities are always for those who have prepared in advance, some time ago, the self-proclaimed regent Will Needham wantonly canonized the human nobles, almost to engage in cheap promotions, and Gao De also had a cheeky face to follow with some oil.
Although they had a competitive relationship with each other, in return for the good cooperation between the two sides for a long time, Luo Zhengdao was extraordinarily generous enough to let Gao De delineate fiefdoms on the map of the main continent at will. Those who are estranged don't have this VIP treatment, and they are all designated by the regent to be feudal, unless you are willing to bring your own dry food and exchange the original territory for the name of the fiefdom, Luo Zhengdao does not hesitate to give an empty favor.
Needless to say, Gao De has a good idea of how many catties and taels he has at the moment, Luo Zhengdao has set an excellent example for him in front, except for the initial period of escape, the fleet of Count Fu Lu and the later fleet of the Fuguo Army, which have almost never tasted defeat, have made the goblin navy suffer enough.
Despite this, His Royal Highness the Lord Regent still seemed cautious in his actions, and he specially chose the Funayama Islands instead of going to the main continent to directly open a base. This is enough to prove that Luo Zhengdao has no choice but to take into account this layer of caution and caution in a long meat grinder-style tug-of-war with goblins with a powerful army on land.
Exploring island territory close to the periphery of the main continent is indeed safer than trying your luck on the mainland, the azure waters can effectively prevent goblins with a strong army from projecting their own military power, and at the same time allow defenders to use their water power to prevent opponents from landing. Taking all these factors into consideration, Gaude Needham chose Chongshan Island, which is about a three-day voyage north of the Chuanshan Islands, as his foothold for the main mainland, which is about 500 nautical miles from the coast of the main continent, which just met his requirements.
Gao De's personal ability may be slightly inferior to Luo Zhengdao, a traverser who has opened a golden finger plug-in, but he is also an outstanding talent far above the average level, and he can come out on top among the exiled nobles. The plan he made was naturally good, but the trouble Gao De encountered was that his plan was so good that someone made a special trip to fight him for territory.
"Najaf? Don't you have your own fiefdom? Why did you come to Chongshan Island to rob me? ”
Gao De Needham, who was already full of frustration, learned that someone had landed on the island first, and when he rushed to negotiate, he did not expect to meet the smiling warlock Najaf, Gao De was of course shocked and angry, and he immediately reprimanded the other party for his rude behavior.
The faceless Najaf is a scoundrel who can argue three points without reason, not to mention that he also took advantage of the first strike this time, and immediately he smiled proudly and retorted:
"Hey, hey, didn't His Royal Highness the Regent say that everyone is responsible for recovering the lost land? Gao De, why do you say that this island is yours? I snatched it from the goblins, are all those green skins your men? Your Excellency Gaode? ”
The goblins, who have suffered successive defeats on the frontal battlefield and are on fire in the main continent, have recently been busy calming the turmoil in their own homes, and with a little spare energy, they are also busy rearmament their navies, and the goblins are trying to quell the increasingly rampant piracy through the integration of internal resources, which is also to prepare in advance to deal with the powers hidden behind the human exiles. In view of this, the Goblin Military Department organized the original main fleet and the slightly smaller mobile fleet into a standing fleet, and then designated the fleet responsible for training and patrol tasks and the subordinate fleet of the local town guard as a garrison fleet, and the entire Goblin Navy was collectively called the Combined Fleet.
Due to the frequent deployment of troops to garrison and the emergency suppression of local violence. There are too many missions, and the defense force of an offshore island like Chongshan Island, which is far away from the main mainland, has been greatly weakened, otherwise Najaf, who has always been afraid of hard things, would not have easily captured this large island before the arrival of the Gaode fleet.
As everyone knows, the main financier behind Luo Zhengdao is the Yaling Empire, and behind Gao De is the full support of the Elven Federation. It seems that Najaf came to touch Gaode's bad head today, which is by no means caused by accident, since he came prepared, this can only show that the article behind it is not simple, not only the problem of fighting for a pirate, but also the intention of creating a momentum to overpower Gaode.
The reason why troubled times are called troubled times is that the positions of different factions are chaotic, and the dynasties and twilight are the norm, and the second is that people's hearts are confused, there is no standard for right and wrong, good and evil, and whoever has the big fist is the last word, and morality and law are pale and powerless when mentioned at this time.
Najaf Needham, a real villain who turns his face like a flip book, and never knows how to write shamelessly, is like a fish in water in troubled times, in fact, this kind of goods can be mixed up no matter when it is left behind, and those who are incapable of superiors like to envelop their subordinates who can not do things to deal with capable subordinates, and this kind of guy has almost no choice but to rely on the power of the superior. Villains are different from those die-hard guys who can do things and can't be people, they are really anxious to dare to rebel against the system, only capable people have the ability to rebel, so the greater the credit, the stronger the ability of the person will be jealous, which is called the guilt of the hero.
Warlock Najaf is not simply the kind of villain who has no virtue and no talent, he must have the skills, but his ambition and desire have far exceeded his own ability. Today's war-torn years have undoubtedly given Najaf an excellent stage to display his face-changing talents, and at this moment, he still did not forget to mend the knife in the face of Gao De, who was trembling with anger, and said:
"Your Excellency Gao De, there is nothing for you here, please go home and rest early! Don't snub the little elf beauty at home, if you make the elf federation unhappy, your life will be very sad. Hahahaha......"
Being provoked and ridiculed in front of others, picking up the most unbearable places to ridicule, Sensei said that a lord with a strong sense of aristocracy like Gaude Needham would be unable to hold back if someone with a little bit of face came to listen to it. So, Gao De was furious and pulled out the army. Knife, roared:
"Fire! Fire now! I'm going to take out Najaf bastard today! ”
Seeing this scene, several elven advisors who were silent on the side exchanged glances, and one of them came to Gao De's side with a smile, and he said politely:
"Your Excellency, please consider this decision carefully, the Federation does not want to see a civil war among human exiles, please understand the position of the Federation."
The mouth that eats people is soft, and the hands that take people are short. Needless to say, if he fell out with the elven advisors, even if he continued to insist on going to war with Najaf without the technical support of the elven naval advisors throughout the fleet, it would be obvious to anyone with a discerning eye what kind of execution his orders would be able to be carried out. Stunned for a moment, and forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, Gauder Needham glanced at the polite elven advisor beside him, and slowly unsheathed the army. The knife was inserted back into its sheath, and everyone around him could see that his face was pale.
Calling the battle in front of him to force Gao De back, Najaf returned to Chongshan Island and scolded his men in a rage, coughing violently while scolding:
"Ahem, ahem...... Get out, get out of here! A bunch of incompetent waste! Idiot! Pigs! ”
After a loud shout that drove everyone away, he entered the inner room alone, and after carefully checking that there were no eyes and ears around, Najaf carefully closed the door, opened the closet, and took out a mirror covered with runic fabric. After setting the mirror on the table, he lit two more candles and recited the incantation in a low voice.
"Ahem, Your Excellency, I occupied Chongshan Island in front of Gaode Needham according to your request, that guy has already gotten out, can you fulfill your promise, my body won't last long."
The metallic mirror shone with a multi-colored arcane aura, and a black figure with a hazy outline let out a sharp voice and said gloomily:
"Well, Najaf, you have done a good job, the retreat will not forget your contributions, and we will do our best to complete the preparations for the ceremony."
Hearing this, Najaf hurriedly made a look of sincere fear, lowered his head and said:
"Willing to serve you!"
"Not for me, but for the Ashram."
"Ahh Yes! For the monastics. ”
