After leaving Nampo, the large merchant fleet of the Zhoushui Alliance sailed along the coastline of the Korean Peninsula for a day before arriving at the port of Incheon, South Korea. The port of Incheon is the second largest port in South Korea and the fortress of the naval base after the port of Busan, only twenty or thirty kilometers from Seoul, and is the maritime gateway of Seoul.

At present, the main naval forces of Korean players are deployed in Incheon, Busan, and Jeju Island.

The huge merchant ship of the Zhoushui Alliance arrived in Incheon and was warmly welcomed by the Korean Player Power Organization. Dozens of leaders of the Korean Association personally greeted the caravan, and they were surprised when they saw more than 30 cargo ships loaded with bronze weapons, red medicine, leather armor, war bows, bronze arrows, wine and other goods. These are the military supplies they urgently need, and these supplies can equip at least tens of thousands of elite nbsp; After Qin Xiaobai, the hooligan and the others got off the ship, they introduced themselves to the main tent of the military camp on the shore of the harbor after introducing each of the player leaders of the Korean Association Alliance.

Dozens of leaders from both sides gathered together and sat down separately to celebrate the first trade between the two sides, and by the way, to talk about long-term cooperation in the future.

In terms of trade, the Zhoushui Alliance had actually negotiated the price with the Korean Association of Clubs offline long before it came out. The Korean alliance uses its own raw materials in exchange for the military supplies of the Zhoushui Alliance, and if the raw materials are insufficient, then they will pay in yuan, US dollars, or euros.

The Korea Association of Societies is an alliance of hundreds of clubs and organizations, tycoons, and consortia throughout Korea, and the ability to pay is not an issue. They can easily buy large quantities of military supplies with real money, which is far better than the North Korean player group next door.

Qin Xiaobai said with a smile: "All of you here are leaders of Korean player power organizations and clubs, representing the entire Korean player community. On behalf of the Chinese players in the Bohai Circle, I would like to cooperate with you in trade. Our target is actually quite simple, the Japanese player across the Korean Strait. But what makes me a little puzzled is that you have as many as four or five hundred ships in Incheon, Busan, Jeju Island, and other places. The total number has passed the scale of about 1,200,400 ships, far more than the more than 700 ships deployed by Japanese players in Kyushu on Tsushima Island. Personally, I'm curious, why don't you gather and kill it directly? As long as you defeat the Japanese ships on Tsushima and occupy Tsushima, you will have the advantage of attacking across the sea, and it is not impossible to kill you on the Japanese mainland. ”

The Korean players looked at each other, a little embarrassed, and didn't know where to start.

In the end, it was the chairman of their alliance, Park Jung-il, the president of South Korea's largest game club, who came forward to explain: "Mr. Qin. Although the fleet of our great Korea is twice as large as that of Japan's Tsushima Island, Japan does not have only one Tsushima Island, and there are many fleets all over Kyushu Island. In addition, Shikoku Island, Honshu, and Hokkaido have countless ships. If the Korean fleet had taken the liberty of attacking Tsushima, the loss of ships would be severe. The inability to defend territorial waters will instead give Japanese players the opportunity to attack. In the absence of the certainty of victory, our Korean fleet should not attack lightly. ”

Several other leaders of Korean clubs also said, "What President Park said is that the total amount of the Korean fleet is not enough to support a full-scale war with Japanese players. Once the ship is damaged on a large scale, it is difficult to make up for the number in a short period of time. ”

Qin Xiaobai smiled: "Oh, so that's the case. I understand. So what if you have enough ships to go to Tsushima? ”

Park Zhengyi smiled and said, "Hehe, Mr. Qin, Japan and I, South Korea, and your country. There are deep-rooted contradictions, and I believe that Mr. Qin must also look forward to killing on the Japanese mainland. Why don't we form a combined fleet? With the warriors of Korea and the strong economic strength of your country, it will be easy to fight in Japan. ”

"Combined fleet? Kill to Japan? ”

Qin Xiaobai thought for a while, smiled, and said, "I naturally have this heart, otherwise I wouldn't have brought a huge caravan and 100 ships from the Bohai Sea." I've come all the way to Incheon to trade with you. However, the territory of our Bohai Fleet is in the Bohai Sea, while the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea are the territories of the Qingdao Fleet and the Zhoushan Fleet respectively. Without the permission of these two families, I cannot wage war on their territory. I once sent people to contact the Qingdao Fleet and the Zhoushan Fleet, but they refused to allow our Bohai Fleet to enter their territory. Their stance on the Korea-Japan war is different from mine. To convince them to form a combined fleet with me. Sent troops to Japan. It's very difficult. ”

He politely declined the offer to send troops together, and continued. "I can only come here to trade now, not to fight. However, my Bohai ship manufacturing capacity is very strong, if you need it, I can supply you with about 100 ships per day, and the load of one is 200, 400, and 600 soldiers respectively, so you don't have to worry about your ships being less than the Japanese players. ”

Park Zhengyi laughed and said, "It seems that if your country wants to complete reunification, the road will be very long." The shipbuilding strength of Bohai is admirable, but even if we can afford to buy 100 ships a day, I am afraid we will not be able to afford it. Ten days later, there are more than 200,000 soldiers of the ground and water army, and the daily consumption of grain is 1.2 million catties, and the food loss is too great. At present, the Korean fleet has thousands of ships, which are already very difficult. If we could, we would prefer to be able to buy large quantities of food from you. ”

Qin Xiaobai shook his head and said, "I don't have enough food myself, I'm trying to raise it by all means, and I can't sell it at all." However, you have to keep up with domestic demand and beware of attacking fishing boats from Japanese players, so food supplies will be very difficult. I don't see any other way to solve the food crisis than to go to war with the Japanese players and seize the fishing grounds. As a business ally, I would like to give you a word of advice, even if you don't take the initiative to attack Japan's Tsushima Island, sooner or later Japanese players will gather superior forces to take the initiative to attack Busan, Incheon, and Jeju Island, and completely seize your fishing grounds. So if you insist on not taking the initiative to attack Tsushima today, are you insisting on a false peace, or are you buying more time for the Japanese to prepare for an invasion, so that they can accumulate more strength and invade Korea more conveniently? ”

The faces of the presidents of the Korean Alliance changed slightly.

As Koreans, they know the Japanese temperament better than the Chinese, and they can better understand the pain of the skin. Unless the Japanese are willing to be a small third-rate country and stay on the Japanese island in peace, the war between Korea and Japan will not be avoided at all. The Japanese have never stopped thinking about stepping on Korean territory, and it is wishful thinking that there is no war between Korea and Japan.

Qin Xiaobai didn't look at the embarrassed faces of the Korean presidents at all, and continued: "For most ordinary players in China, if a naval battle breaks out between South Korea and Japan, it may just be a lively event for them. But for you Korean players, it's a matter of life and death, and it would be an unbearable shame to be completely defeated. I'm happy to help you in any way, and I'll be able to provide you with whatever you need, but I'm disappointed if you don't have the idea of beating the Japanese players yourself. The presidents of the Korean Alliance have changed color again.

A South Korean president slapped the table angrily and said loudly: "Of course we are going to fight Japan, who said that we will not fight!" Let's just make things clear, we must confirm one thing, which side are you Chinese on? Do you fully support our Korea, or do you support the Japanese! If you can fully support my Korea, then it will not be easy to kill it? ”

The other presidents also said excitedly: "There are also North Koreans, you have to persuade them not to pull us back!" ”

Qin Xiaobai stood up suddenly, and said in an unusually firm tone: "Okay, on behalf of the Bohai Alliance, the strongest coastal force in northern China, I will fully support you on the South Korean side and provide you with an unlimited and stable supply of military supplies." The products of the entire military industry of the North will be open to you at the cheapest prices. In addition, I can also give you a military guarantee, once the war is lost, I will directly dispatch the Bohai Fleet to provide you with emergency protection and ensure the safety of bases along the South Korean Sea until you recover your military strength. As for the Qingdao Fleet and the Zhoushan Fleet, I am not familiar with them, so I need you to negotiate with them separately and strive for preferential conditions in all aspects. I think they'll be on your side as long as the conditions are right. ”

Park Zhengyi said excitedly: "Well, with the full support of His Excellency Speaker Qin and the full support of the Chinese, then why should my Korea fight a war with Japan, Tsushima Island was originally my Korean, why should they occupy it!" Qin Xiaobai said with satisfaction: "South Korea has been completely unified in the hands of your alliance, but the player forces of the four islands of Japan are still in a state of division, so the war against Japan should not be delayed for a long time, the sooner the better." Give me a list of what you need and how much you need, and my merchant fleet will deliver it in three to five days. You should first draw up a battle plan, wait for all kinds of military supplies to arrive, and strive to make all preparations before the big battle within half a month. ”

Park Zhengyi hurriedly said: "Your Excellency Speaker Qin can dominate the Bohai Sea and has rich experience in large-scale wars, so it is better to stay for a day or two first, and serve as a staff officer for the war between South Korea and Japan, how to fight against Japan." I have some questions for you. ”

Qin Xiaobai thought about it for a while and agreed. Formulating a war plan against Japan with these Korean leaders will also help him to grasp the progress of the Korean-Japanese war more accurately.

After unloading their cargo at Incheon Port, more than 30 two-masted merchant ships of Zhoushui returned directly to the Tanggukou base. The other 100 light ships remained, all of which were sold to Korean players. However, the NPC soldiers on these fighting ships returned to Tanggu with the merchant ships.

In addition, a shopping list of military supplies was also brought back to Tanggu, and a large number of bronze weapons, leather armor, dhows, light and heavy fighting ships, etc., were purchased in batches, which could equip about 100,000 sailors and nearly 300,000 6 armies. The Korean Players Alliance can be said to be preparing for the war at any cost.
