The blood-colored sky specially invited the four giant leaders of Jicheng to discuss joining forces to suppress the momentum of the Zhoushui Alliance, so as not to damage the interests of Jicheng. This is very difficult, because the power of the Zhoushui Alliance did not extend to Jicheng in a big way, but operated in the Zhoushui Walled City and other walled cities.

The Zhoushui Alliance is a strong opponent hundreds of miles away, while the other giant forces in Jicheng are opponents who are a few meters closer. Everyone knows which one to focus on.

No one will devote their main energy and strength to dealing with an opponent hundreds of miles away.

Since we cannot invest our main strength, we can at most invest a small part of our strength to suppress it -- it is best if we can succeed, and it has nothing to do with the overall situation if we fail to succeed, so as not to cause heavy losses and lose our ground.

The player forces of Jicheng are mainly concentrated in Jicheng, and have not yet extended to other walled cities. If only a small part of the strength is invested, it will be very difficult to suppress the powerful forces of another walled city.

Zhoushui Walled City is the base camp of the Zhoushui Alliance, which is impregnable, and if you want to move Zhoushui Walled City, you don't have to think about it. It can only be beaten and pressed in other surrounding walls, so as not to expand too quickly in the Zhoushui Alliance.

However, it is still very difficult.

Just like the conflict between the Bohai Shipyard and the Zhoushui Shipyard, they basically can't intervene, and can only watch the two shipyards fight back and forth. Because there is no suitable place for shipbuilding in Jicheng, they themselves did not go to shipbuilding. Although they have money in their hands, the two shipyards ignore their words and do not intervene.

If any of them clashed head-on with the Zhou Shui Alliance for no reason, they would have turned their faces. It is not necessarily the Zhoushui Alliance that suffers, but it is more likely to be themselves.

The five giants of Jicheng, the blood-colored sky, the muddy, the bright moon of the year, the north of the earth, and the second emperor of Qin, sat together and chatted for a while, but they didn't come up with any good methods.

Qin II teased in a playful tone: "I heard that Brother Sky was working very hard to mediate the conflict between Zhoushui Shipyard and Bohai Shipyard some time ago, and now it seems to be quite effective, but I don't know what Brother Sky has gained in the middle?" Is there anything that benefits from loneliness? ”

The blood-colored sky's face froze, and he laughed in the blink of an eye, and said, "Where, where."

I'm just acting as a middleman, thanks to the two shipyards that give me face. Stopped those senseless fights and turned hostilities into friendships. Let's do this effort. It's not in vain. At least shipping is back open and you don't have to worry about being attacked by rogue bandits, which is good for everyone! ”

"Oh, is it? Brother Sky has really worked hard and made great contributions to the merchants of the entire Jicheng, thank you, thank you! ”

Qin II heard this. I laughed too. There was some other hint of sarcasm in his speech.

The blood-colored sky, hearing Qin II's mockery. Don't mention what it's like. This careless mistake is destined to become a laughing stock, and it is constantly mentioned by these people in front of him. Just laugh and laugh. He didn't do it either.

The other three didn't show any expressions, but they were quite amused in their hearts. The five forces will monitor each other's movements, and the Scarlet Sky will intervene in mediating the affairs of the two shipyards, and they know it. They also knew what the bloody sky was up to. But it's a pity, after spending so much effort to be a good person and a matchmaker, in the end I couldn't get anything, needless to say, I also know how depressed the blood-colored sky is now.

However, the depression of the bloody sky was a rare pleasure for the rest of them, and it was a very happy thing. These people are all ready to swallow each other at any time, and they are happy to see others gnawing on bones but not eating meat, even if they are not good.

Mingyue smiled back then: "Yes, don't talk about these idle things, let's talk about business." The Zhoushui Alliance sent a team of 100 ships to build a supply base at the mouth of the Jihe River.

What do you think about this? ”

"Supply base? 2,000 cavalry, 5,000 foot soldiers, 5,000 peasants, running all the way to build a supply base? Fool whom. I'm sure that if he had taken possession of that place and gained a firm foothold, none of our people here today would have a good time in the future. Qin II pointed to the people present, shook his head, and said, "We can't always stay on 6, one day we will go to the sea." But when the ship goes out of the sea, it passes under their noses. When you're happy, let your boat pass, that's okay to say. One day, if they suddenly become unhappy and don't let you live, what can we do to them? ”

Bei Ming said: "That's good. This estuary, that is, the mouth of Tanggu in Tianjin, is surrounded by rivers. Build a fortified city here, heavily guarded, and it is very difficult to deal with. If you want to prevent this place from being completely occupied by them, it is better to do it now, otherwise it will be too late to do it again when the city is built. ”

Back then, Mingyue, Qin II, and Beiming had already expressed their attitudes and were inclined to make a move here. And the blood-colored sky is the initiator of this discussion, undoubtedly supporting the joint suppression of the Zhoushui Alliance. They looked at the obfuscation.

Confused glanced at everyone, and said: "It seems that everyone is in favor of joining forces to lay out here, Jicheng and Tanggukou are one end and one tail." If you don't have a head, you can't do it, and if you lose your life; It's not good to lack a tail, and if you don't have a breath, you will be suffocated. The two places are connected by the Ji River, so that the qi veins can be smooth, Xiaobai's strength is strong, but each of the five of us has drawn a small part of his strength, which can completely prevent him from occupying this estuary. ”

"Good!"

The blood-colored sky's eyes were blazing, and he said loudly: "Today, it is rare for the five of us to reach a consensus and come together. Since everyone agrees to make a move in this place, let's do it right away without further ado.

I shipped 5 merchant ships, 1,000 soldiers, and a number of stone and wood materials. He Xiaobai can build a supply base in that place, and so can we. ”

Qin II shook his head, "Brother Sky, 5 is too little, a total of 25 ships ran over to fight for territory, and they were not laughed to death by the people of the Zhoushui Alliance." 15 articles. Each person tried to make up 15 boats, and a total of 75 boats barely managed to hold up the scene. In addition, they all carried a little more troops, peasants, food materials, and so on. If you want to do it, make the momentum bigger, don't be too petty, otherwise you will be looked down on by Zhou Shui's people, and the five giants of Jicheng, the capital of our country, will make a scene worse than their little Zhou Shui. I can't afford to lose this face. ”

The blood-colored sky's face was purple, and there was a faint anger under his eyebrows, but he didn't say a word.

Qin II didn't look at the blood-colored sky at all, and continued to say to himself: "In addition, I think I still need to go to the Bohai Shipyard to buy some more ships to come back." Our ships are really pitiful, and it is best to form a fleet or something, otherwise we may not be able to fight for the Zhoushui Alliance. ”

Mingyue said with a smile: "Yes, if we want to compete with the Zhoushui Alliance for access to the sea, we have too few ships, and we need to purchase more merchant ships." First, we can support the Bohai Shipyard and restore the vitality of the Bohai Shipyard. Second, it can also suppress the Zhoushui Alliance, contain their forces, and slow down their expansion! I think that's basically it. Let's get ready, and try to get out within two days! Before the Zhoushui Alliance establishes a consolidated base, our base will also be established. ”

"Alright, go your separate ways!"

The Big Five dispersed, each with his men back to his own territory, and began to raise 15 ships. Each of their chambers of commerce had about twenty or thirty cabin boats for transporting goods on the Ji River, and many of them had already been dispatched. If you don't have enough boats, you can only borrow boats from other small chambers of commerce.

In addition, soldiers, peasants, grain, stone and wood materials, etc., all need to be prepared. They began to mobilize within their own organizations, recruiting a portion of their manpower and migrating to the coast hundreds of miles away.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the supply base of the Zhoushui Alliance might cut off their access to the sea, they would not have been able to take such a concerted action. Now, each of their forces has taken out a small part of their strength, ready to protect the mouth of the Ji River from being cut off by the players of the other walled cities. Leave a way back for them to go to the ocean in the future.

Hundreds of thousands of players in Jicheng learned that the five giants of the city were going to form a fleet to go to sea and build a supply base along the coast, and they were extremely excited and enthusiastically discussed, which was a clear sign that they wanted to compete with Zhou Shui's players.

The five giants sent people to contact the Bohai Shipyard, and each asked for the purchase of more than 5 ships at a time. Their decision to form a fleet and go to the mouth of the Bohai Sea to build a supply base also reached the ears of loneliness.

Solitude is of course very happy about this, which can bring great profits to his shipyard. However, he did not forget the contract he had signed with Zhou Shui Alliance not long ago. According to the contract, he can't sell the ship to any player in Thistle. Only the ships of the Zhoushui Shipyard can be sold to players in Jicheng.
