Montgosser's Fifth Legion was divided into three disconnected theaters, and Higg's own forces were divided into three disconnected areas, and Andrew's veterans led 3,000 cavalry in the Ural Grand Canyon and personally led 3,000 cavalry deep into the hinterland of Arad, with the southernmost city of Fuxing as his base camp.

Fuxing City is now in crisis, but there is Rogson on land, Nicole on the navy, the city management is handed over to Charlie and Denilson, and the Magic Guild has also completed the construction of the first floor under the organization of Delonso and Daniel, Daniel asked Rainbow Island to advance four hundred magicians for the construction of Fuxing City and services for refugees, the powerful manufacturing industry is led by Altai, and the developed maritime commercial network begins to extend everywhere.

When merchant ships loaded with porcelain, wine, handicrafts, textiles and other goods left the harbor of Fuxing City along the southern monsoon and sailed to the harbor of Shenlong Island, Mizusawa Country, Barbarian Country and even the distant Alchemy Country, Colonel Shante was appointed by General Colenwa to come to Fuxing City.

In the interior hall of Fuxing City, an urgent military meeting was held.

Shante first stood in front of the map and reported to the senior officials of Fuxing City on the military situation around the entire Misland: "More than 500,000 troops of Mapote in the Fourth War Zone, desperately leaving their base camp, are now attacking the position west of Andalu Province, and the momentum is violent. The purpose is very obvious, which is to cut off General Colenva's army in Al-Andalu Province from the outside world, including the city of Renaissance! The Fourth Theater of Operations moved suddenly, and Her Majesty's First and Second Legions were pinned down by the First Theater, the Second Theater and the Fourth Army of Arad, and it is estimated that in less than half a month, Maporte will be able to watch the sunrise over the sea on the western coast of Andalu Province. ”

Charlie asked, "Arad wants to eat General Colenva's 140,000 troops and the army of Fuxing City in one bite, and his appetite is too big, right?" ”

Shante said: "The other armies of the First and Second Armies are completely pinned, and there are still more than 600,000 people in the Third Theater of Arad, and if we encircle the province of Andalu with the Fourth Theater, our army of less than 200,000 is very likely to be eaten." I came to Fuxing City this time to negotiate with Fuxing City about joint defense. What General Colenwa means is that his army and the army of Fuxing City must be unified and coordinated, and he hopes that the army of Fuxing City can temporarily be under his battle sequence in this special period, and in this time of life and death, there is only unified command, and there may be a way out! ”

"Hahaha!" Charlie said with a smile: "My mountain leader, Fuxing City is the second leader of the city, that is, the current city lord, and we have worked hard for more than two years to build, if the big boss is willing to come back, we welcome it at any time, but if anyone dares to fight the idea of revival city, don't say that the city lord does not agree, you ask everyone here, do they agree?" I was born as a bandit, and I don't know what grand strategy is, I only know that the military command of Fuxing City is absolutely impossible to hand over to others! ”

Shante smiled awkwardly and said, "Commander-in-Chief Charlie, you misunderstood me, I just conveyed General Colenva's meaning, my personal meaning, and I did not agree to hand over the military command of Fuxing City to General Colenva!" That's why I volunteered to coordinate the defense of both sides and try to keep the two sides in lockstep! ”

Charlie breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This is a matter of course, if General Colenva has any reasonable requests, we will not be uncooperative!" ”

Rogson said, "Major Shante, what specific plans does General Colenwa have?" ”

"General Kolenwa is shrinking his forces, abandoning Echengu and focusing on the line from Misland to Masilt, the capital of Andalu province," said Shante. ”

Rogson nodded and said: "Although there are many drawbacks to shrinking the defense, but in the current situation, in order to preserve strength, it is indeed the best way. But just defense, there is no way to crack it, how long can we hold out? ”

Shante said: "More than 500,000 Mapote in the fourth theater of war have penetrated deep into our hinterland, and their supply lines are too long, as long as we still exist, Mapote will not be able to occupy the territory west of Andalu Province for a long time, and in less than three months, they will either destroy us or withdraw their troops!" ”

Rogson laughed: "Hold on for three months? General Colenwa really dared to think, not to mention that there were more than 600,000 troops against our coalition forces of less than 200,000, let's just say that after the west of Andalu Province was cut off, General Colenwa shrank his territory again, where did our supplies come from? ”

Shante said: "Of course, it is on the sea, the city lord of Hig has established a huge maritime commercial network, I have to say, very prescient!" ”

Charlie laughed: "Colenva is still worried about the lifeline we know at sea!" This sea lifeline was built by the Lord of the City and Captain Nicole with a lot of money and blood, and General Colenva would not think of using it in the name of a coalition army! ”

Shante smiled: "Of course it won't be used in vain, this time I brought a million gold coins as rent for the common use of the sea lifeline!" ”

Charlie smiled: "Although I am also short of gold coins, but now I am more lacking in materials, and Colenva is also short of materials, even if I have a pile of gold coins here, can I scare away the enemy?" ”

Shante smiled: "What other conditions, you can just mention it!" ”

"Good!" Charlie said: "We don't need a million gold coins, the Colonel can bring it back, we only need 30% of all the materials that General Colenwa has to cross the port, and if we need the materials we provide, we will also increase it by 50% according to the market price, this is the bottom line of my Fuxing City!" ”

Saudi Arabia said angrily: "Thirty percent? The situation is so tense that you still want to withhold 30% of our supplies? Is this a robbery, and what else is there to talk about coalition forces? ”

Nicole smiled and said: "Colonel Shante, we will not charge the full amount of the materials purchased from us, but only collect them at market price, and the remaining fifty percent will be used as a debt, and when the enemy retreats, General Colenwa will pay it off within a year, and my condition is that the navy of your Second Army must cooperate with us to defend the lifeline at sea, and all the ships lost at sea shall bear their own burdens, how about it?" ”

Shante said: "Okay, Captain Nicole, just do it according to your method, and of course the fleet of our Second Legion is also responsible for assisting in the defense of the sea lifeline!" I don't need to take back the one million gold coins, so I can buy you five thousand sets of armor directly! ”

Charlie was surprised: "Five thousand sets, so many? When to do it? ”

Shante said, "I want it now!" ”

Charlie said angrily, "Where did I get so much equipment? It will take at least a month for the workshop to be produced, where can you hand it over to me to get it for you now? ”

Shante smiled: "Of course it's the batch shipped by the Alchemy Country, otherwise, can it be worth so much money?" According to the agreement that has just come into effect, we have the right to buy the supplies you have, and you won't need so much equipment for the time being! Three hundred gold coins for a set, not cheap, and the remaining half a million gold coins, according to the agreement, we will pay it off within a year after the enemy retreats. ”

Nicole laughed and said, "The big boss of the mountain is so calculating!" Commander-in-Chief Charlie, since it is a defense between the two armies, of course we are obligated to help friendly forces, and I agree to the deal of these five thousand sets of equipment! ”

Charlie smiled, "Good! Captain Nicole, you're a princess, such a big deal, just do what you say! ”

Nicole laughed and said, "I'm still waiting for Mr. Shante's naval intelligence, if I don't trade, I'm afraid Mr. Shante won't tell me, right?" ”

"Captain Nicole laughed!" Shante smiled, and then said with a solemn face, "Even if I don't trade, I won't hide this information!" The warships of the 3rd and 5th Theaters are assembling in the port of Truto to form the 6th Theater of Operations at Sea, with Field Marshal Sgels as the commander of the 6th Theater Corps, which will soon be completed. ”

Nicole was taken aback, "Port Truto? More than 2,000 kilometers, a fast sail battleship can reach Fuxing City in five days, and a heavy battleship can reach it in seven or eight days! With the merger of the two fleets and the unified command of nearly fifty warships, wouldn't our Fuxing City be slaughtered by others? Not only us, but even the warships of the Second Army can only be nested in their home port, so what else can we talk about escort? Colonel Shante, what is General Colenva's plan? ”

Shante laughed, "General Kolenwa said just look at what Captain Nicole means!" ”

"Commander-in-Chief Charlie, General Rogson, Colenva means to temporarily use the harbor of Fuxing City as the home port of the Second Army Navy!" Nicole smiled bitterly: "If the city lord of Hig is not here, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to call the shots!" ”

Charlie said angrily: "How can this be done, the city lord said that although Fuxing City is loyal to Her Majesty, it must maintain its independence until Arad falls. It's easy for the ships of the Second Legion to enter Fuxing City, but it's even more difficult to let them go! ”

Rogson, who had not spoken, said: "Charlie, since the city lord is not here, I agree to give the port * to the second legion first, which is conducive to protecting the shipping route and reviving the city, if the second legion does not leave after the war, the responsibility lies with me, I agree, not the city lord, if the city lord does not agree when the city lord returns, we are not afraid of expulsion by force!" ”

"I agree!" Nicole said, "If the Second Legion doesn't leave by then, hum, General Colenva will be in big trouble!" ”

"Okay, I'll arrange for the expansion of the military port immediately!" Charlie said with a wry smile: "Colenva is really a good calculation, one million gold coins, said to be given to Fuxing City, but it turned out to be the purchase of equipment!" As a result, the equipment is in hand, and I have to use the one million gold coins I got to repair the military port for the Second Legion! ”

……

After Shante left, Fuxing City held a military conference again.

Denelson asked, "Captain Nicole, what will happen to your battleship after the Second Legion's warships enter the harbor, and will they be under their command?" ”

Nicole laughed and said: "My warship will sail to Yaning Island, and all the merchant ships will have to be concentrated there in the future, and then our warships will escort them into Fuxing City." The military port of Fuxing City is too dangerous, the current monsoon is a south wind, and it is easy to be sneak attacked, let the warships of the Second Legion fight them, let's run out to fight sea guerrillas and be pirates! ”

Charlie took a deep breath and said, "Are you addicted to pirates?" ”

Nicole laughed and said: "Our battleships are superior to theirs, faster, and more combative, suitable for being pirates, haha!" Since the Sixth War Zone is going to send all the warships to block the sea, then I will specifically attack their fleet supply ships, anyway, Yaning Island is so far away, they may not dare to chase there, even if I slowly consume them, I will consume them to death! ”

Charlie smiled: "Okay, I agree with your plan at sea!" General Rogson, the defense of the land is all in your hands, and all my current personnel will fully assist you in building fortifications and building Fuxing City into a huge military fortress! ”

Rogson said: "As long as Captain Nicole can ensure the smooth flow of sea transportation lines, I will destroy as many enemies as there are on land!" ”
