"Is this really an accidental discovery?"

In the Central Plains, radio communication equipment is already quite perfect, so the speed of intelligence transmission has also been greatly improved.

After the Geological Survey Bureau of Beishan City received the intelligence news, an application was undoubtedly delivered to Luo Ji's eyes as quickly as possible.

Originally, things of this level didn't need him to look at it personally, didn't he just explore the geology? The city hall of Beishan City can approve it, why do you need to send it to him?

In general, the Geological Survey is only required to submit a formal report after the discovery of a new vein.

This time, though, things are clearly different.

The biggest reason for this is that it's too far away!

Subconsciously pulling open the system map, Luo Ji tried to find it, and then quickly locked a location.

According to the report, the area where the veins may have existed is more than 800 kilometers away from the Winter Fortress.

That area was still an area of the bitter cold land of their Ten Thousand Realms Civilization, not a third-party area that had been systematically populated, so the discovery of ore veins was not an uncommon thing, it was considered their native resource.

However, this distance is not close in modern society.

If he wants to send a geological exploration team over, he will probably have to mobilize a certain amount of funds, as well as manpower and material resources.

And after the discovery of the vein, it is even more difficult to build a mining field there.

For this problem, Luo Ji is undoubtedly a little distressed.

At this distance, if he wants to connect the territory, then I'm afraid he will have to build another small city, and at the same time, considering the problem of territorial filling in the future, it is estimated that there will be two or three more major developments in that area.

To put it simply, this matter is not as easy as it seems, and the projects involved in the back are too big.

His thumb unconsciously rubbed the little black fish he carried all year round, and Luo Ji was weighing this matter in his heart.

But it's useless to think too much about it now, before that, he has to make sure if there are any veins underneath, and if so, what kind of veins they are.

In this way, Luo Ji directly issued an order, signaling Beishan City to send a geological exploration team to the bitter cold land to investigate.

After receiving the order, the Geological Survey Bureau quickly formed a team, and after almost a week of preparation, the transport trucks loaded with exploration equipment quickly drove through the Grand Canyon of the Beishan Fortress towards the bitter cold.

And during this time, the season quietly turns to summer......

As we all know, summer is a hot season, but also a rainy season, thunderstorms, is a frequent visitor in this season, at this time, cities will bring a clear damp heat and boredom.

And in this kind of weather, the sea will become especially dangerous!

Under the dark sky, the roaring thunder and rain ravaged the heavens and the earth, setting off huge waves one after another, showing the power and horror of nature.

In the face of the sea roaring wildly in the storm, no matter how majestic the steel battleship is, it has become like a mayfly at this moment, constantly jolting in the turbulent waves, as if if you don't pay attention, you will be completely swallowed up by the next wave that sweeps over.

And at such times, a long-dormant fleet quietly appeared in the midst of a raging storm......

Since the beginning of the summer season, the commander-in-chief of the fleet has been waiting for this day.

The dark elves with naval power know how to observe climate change at sea, and at the same time, they know how to maximize their advantages!

The dark sky and the pouring rain greatly reduced the visibility around us.

At the same time, in the event of a thunderstorm, the radar equipment of the fleet will be affected considerably.

However, even if it is not affected, it is useless, because there is no mechanical equipment on the black sail battleship of the dark elves, and in the face of these 'ancient sail battleships', the radar of this era cannot sweep them away at all!

Nature's cover made it easy for them to get closer, and then the dark elf mages cast a detection spell that allowed him to successfully locate the target.

In the next second, the Marauder ballistas opened fire in unison, completely opening up the battle in the midst of a raging storm.

"Enemy attack! Enemy Attack!! ”

The supply fleet of the Celestial Empire that was attacked was alarmed, and in the command room, the face of the commander-in-chief of the fleet was ugly.

"Turn on all searchlights and confirm enemy positions! The supply ships retreat! Be careful to dodge enemy attacks!! ”

In this weather, only two players can attack at sea.

One is Pompeii Rand, who has an army of fishmen, and the other is Chris Evans's Blacksail Fleet, who can basically ignore the effects of weather at sea!

Taking this as a premise, judging from the round of attacks just now, it is undoubtedly the latter who launched the attack.

This is bad news for the Celestial Empire's supply fleet.

The strength of the Black Sail Fleet in naval warfare is undoubted, and with the blessing of stormy weather, it is extremely difficult for them to escape with multiple supply ships.

But even so, the commander-in-chief of the supply fleet obviously did not intend to sit idly by.

The convoy responsible for escorting the mission adjusted the position of the ship's guns and opened fire one after another, trying to hit the enemy in the distance.

However, in this environment, battleships and heavy cruisers, which use naval gun fire as their main means of output, are almost no different from fighting at night, and this type of battleship is notoriously not good at night combat.

At this moment, the hit rate of that series of naval artillery strikes is so touching that you can imagine how touching it is, it is like hitting with your eyes closed.

If this scene is put in a game, then you can definitely see a whole piece of 'miss' prompt that can make you flip the table on the spot.

In comparison, the Black Sail Fleet relied on the locks of the dark elf mages to detect spells, and it was simply accurate to hit them.

After two rounds of fighting, the fleet commander, who was clearly aware of this desperation, gritted his teeth and ordered that while laying mines to break the rear, the convoy and the supply ships directly began to evacuate separately.

In the face of such a battle, the commander-in-chief of the Black Sail Fleet, who was far behind at that time, directly ordered to hunt down the supply ships that had withdrawn from the other side out of prudence.

Those frigates don't mean much to them, as long as they successfully cut off the supplies on the other side, can the Celestial Empire Combined Fleet on the opposite side really turn over the flowers?

As for the broken mines, it is no problem for their Black Sail warships to stretch out their protective shields and rush through a few mines.
