Chapter 51: Follow-up

The war is over.

Come and go fast.

There wasn't even half an hour from beginning to end.

But in this short period of less than half an hour, the sparks that collided between the two civilizations were incomparably dazzling.

In the north of Yushui City, the military area of the Shuiyuan civilization was in shambles, especially the long-range strike weapon clusters were all destroyed, and more than thirty gold-level Shuiyuan civilization star energy warriors were killed on the spot!

In the center of the city, the entire eight-sided bright gold building was cut off by two whole floors by the high-intensity battle, making the building go from a complete hundred floors to ninety-eight floors.

The most painful thing for Shui Yuan's people was the death of more than sixty powerhouses above the gold level, as well as the destroyed strategic weapon, the Stellar Gathering Energy Array!

Eight-Ridge Building, the ninety-eighth floor, Yan Ting, the governor of the Shuiyuan Civilization in the Great World of All Races, stood quietly in front of the window, with a pair of golden eyes, looking into the distance.

He looked a little tired, but his temperament was not decadent.

As the supreme governor of the Shuiyuan civilization in the great world of all races, he is a qualified politician. He has great strength in his own right, but in the time of war, he did not move. Even when the sky collapsed on the roof, he was unmoved. Even if the powerful gold-level powerhouses under his command were killed or injured, his face remained unchanged. Even if the strategic weapon was destroyed, he didn't seem to care.

He is a ruler, a commander, not a warrior.

Comparatively speaking, Li Zheng has done much worse in this regard. Li Zheng felt that he was still young, bored, and a little impulsive. What's more, the empire is still young, the heritage is not enough, a lot of things. He needs to take action personally, which is helpless.

Nebula stood behind Yan Pavilion with his hands tied, his face a little pale.

For a young man, failure is a huge blow.

At this time, Yan Ting spoke. His tone was very light. There was not a trace of mood swings.

"What, struck? Feeling bad? ”

Nebula nodded silently.

"Then do you think that my Shui Yuan Civilization is really not the opponent of the Origin Empire?" Yan Ting asked again.

Xingyun shook his head, his expression moved, and his words were a little annoyed: "If it weren't for the fact that this damn world has restrictions on the energy system of my Shuiyuan civilization, what is the Origin Empire?!" ”

"If you know, it's good." Yan Ting nodded slightly: "We are limited by energy, and many powerful weapons and war technologies cannot be used in this world. However, "

He turned around. Looking at the nebula, he said, "How can you know that if the Origin Empire is similar to my Shui Yuan Civilization?" What if they also have powerful weapons, but they are limited by the laws of this world and cannot use them? ”

"This"

Nebula opened her mouth.

"I've always said that any civilization that is qualified to cross borders should not be underestimated. Don't be presumptuous, but don't underestimate the enemy either. This time we failed. But you know, we're here. has been based for decades. The Origin Empire, on the other hand, has just crossed the border. Compared to the background, we have more advantages than the understanding of the world. But we still lost."

At this, he paused and sighed. Said: "Xingyun, you are the most important successor of the FΓΌhrer, you need to learn a lot of lessons, grow up as soon as possible, failure and success are all gains." To know. War is also a kind of communication."

"I need you to take care of the aftermath of this war." Yan Ting said again: "Sum up the experience, learn the lesson, and - you will be responsible for the communication between my Shui Yuan Civilization and the Origin Empire in the future!" They have strengths, and we may be able to use them. ”

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. We are not here to fight with other civilizations, but to give us Shuiyuan people and open up a path of development. Communication is the theme. I believe that the Origin Empire thinks the same way. Otherwise, they would not have agreed to fight. Otherwise, before we knew it, they would have attacked the city of Yushui. ”

"Disputes between civilizations, within a certain range, there is no hatred, only interests, Nebula, you have to understand that. We can't turn away anything that is beneficial to the development of our Shuiyuan civilization, even if it costs a lot! ”

Xingyun's face was solemn: "Thank you, uncle, I know." ”

"Okay," Yan Ting smiled: "Then, it's up to you to negotiate with the Origin Empire after the war, what to do, I won't interfere, everything is up to you!" ”

"Obey the orders of His Excellency the Governor!"

Watching Xingyun walk out of the room, the smile on Yan Ting's face disintegrated, and he muttered: "What an Origin Empire, let my Shui Yuan Civilization be your stepping stone"

The final blow of the strategic weapon of the Shuiyuan civilization is really too powerful. If it weren't for Li Zheng's mid-air interception, I'm afraid that not many of the tens of thousands of troops on the ground would have survived!

A radius of hundreds of miles will be destroyed under that blow!

Such power has surpassed natural disasters!

And Li Zheng, if it weren't for the fact that the system was upgraded again and strengthened again, and he was even more powerful, otherwise he would definitely die in the face of this attack like heavenly might!

When he received that blow, Li Zheng was not lightly injured. has been suppressed, just to deter the surrounding strong people from the territory of other civilizations.

After returning to Yushuiling, Li Zheng stayed alone in the room for two days before his injuries gradually improved.

Thousand Hills City.

In the hall, Li Zheng sat upright.

His face was a little pale, but his eyes were scorching.

It's not without benefit to being hurt. At least, Li Zheng understands himself better, and his control of power is more freewheeling. You must know that over the years, Li Zheng has never gone all out once!

His Royal Highness, Dian Wei, Zhao Yun and Xiahou Duan bowed their heads and bowed.

They blamed themselves for not being able to complete the set task in time, which almost led to the defeat of the battle. At present, although the war has been won, the Son of Heaven is injured, and they feel that they have an unshirkable responsibility.

The three of them pleaded guilty, but Li Zheng didn't care, waved his hand, and said, "Get up." ”

"On the battlefield, the situation is changing rapidly. Any accident can happen, and no one is foolproof. You are the same. Me too. The people of Shui Yuan are very powerful, not muddy, so you don't need to blame yourself. On the contrary, this battle is a great victory, and your credit cannot be erased. ”

"Still. But it's good to remember this lesson, learn from it, and make yourself stronger, so as to avoid similar things from happening in the future. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The three of them stood up and clasped their fists in salute.

Li Zheng bowed slightly, let the three of them sit down, and said with a smile: "I think you have also seen the strength of the Shui Yuan people, what else do we need to do." Think about how you can do better. After all, we have finally gained a firm foothold, and the next step is to make a good living and manage this place, draw nutrients from it, and feed the empire for development. ”

Speaking of this, Li Zheng was stunned. said to Pang Tong: "I'm sick, the next thing." I'll leave it to you. Shiyuan was responsible for the post-war negotiations with the Shuiyuan civilization on matters related to the cession of territories, the release of prisoners, and the subsequent establishment of diplomatic relations with other surrounding civilizations. ”

"After the casualties and soldiers are cared for, and after the territory is obtained, all military matters are under the overall control of Gongjin. Wen Yuan and the others assisted from the side. ”

"Next, the empire will start with the commercial side and start making contact with other civilizations"

Li Zheng arranged all the matters in an orderly manner, and then said, "What comments and suggestions do you have?" They are also put forward, and everyone will refer to them together to ensure safety. ”

Pang Tong then said: "Your Majesty, the minister has thought carefully about it in the past two days. The original area of this water collar was about 8,000 miles in radius. A river runs through it, splitting the area in two. We are north of this river, and the city of water is south of this river. The Hebei region is only 3,000 miles in radius, and the land of Henan is 5,000 miles in radius. From a strategic point of view, it is right to cut a 3,000-mile radius of land north of the river, but the area is smaller. ”

"It doesn't matter." Li Zheng waved his hand: "We are here, not to gain much territory, but to need a window for foreign civilization exchanges, it doesn't matter if it is small." ”

Pang Tong nodded, knowing in his heart.

He added: "We are the victor in this battle, and we have captured a lot of Shuiyuan soldiers. Your Majesty, you may be able to earn some benefits from the hands of the Shui Yuan people. ”

Li Zheng bowed slightly: "The advantage is that not to mention anything else, the captured Shui Yuan people's military equipment has considerable research value for the empire, so let's do it, the empire's energy utilization system is too backward." Didn't I already have a good eye on the stellar energy utilization technology of the Shuiyuan people? In this negotiation, you will insist on the superiority of the victorious side and the captives of the Shuiyuan people, and it is best to obtain this technology from them. It doesn't need to be very advanced, the more basic the better. The empire does not have a trace of foundation in this regard, what is needed is basic technology! ”

"I understand for the minister."

"Your Majesty." After Pang Tong finished speaking, Zhou Yu also spoke.

"This battle has lost hundreds of nearly 1,000 soldiers and horses, and it must be replenished as soon as possible. In addition, there are a lot of energy armor that will be scrapped in this battle and need to be replenished as soon as possible. ”

Li Zheng nodded: "I have already summoned the soldiers back, and I must have made up for it in the next day or two." As for the armor, it will take a few days. ”

Zhou Yu nodded.

Li Zheng's eyes swept around, and when he saw that he had no opinions or suggestions, he stood up and said, "Zilong, several of you have been injured, and you will go back for a few days." This concludes our business for today. ”

As he spoke, he turned around and walked a few steps, paused again, and said, "If people from other civilizations come to visit, establish diplomatic relations and exchanges, Shiyuan can make his own decisions." Don't reveal my identity, and if anyone wants to see me, say I've returned to the Empire. ”

"Yes."

Back in the dormitory, Li Zheng slowly sat cross-legged on the couch.

In this battle, although there were some losses, and even he was seriously injured, in general, the goal has been achieved.

Defeated the Shuiyuan civilization, demonstrated the power of the empire, and shocked other surrounding civilizations, here, there is already a capital to gain a firm foothold.

How to develop next, but it has been planned for a long time. Only the people below need to follow the steps, and there is no need for Li Zheng to worry about it personally.

Right now, the most important thing for him is to recuperate! (To be continued......)
