Chapter 107: The Great War Begins
"This is my uncle, a first-order martial king peak powerhouse!" Nalander first came to an old man with black and white hair and introduced.
Hearing that it was the elders of the Nalan family, Lan Qian hurriedly saluted.
Naland's uncle, Nalan Kong, glanced up at Lan Qian and nodded, which was regarded as a response to Lan Qian.
"This is Shang Yang, the enshrined man of our Nalan family, and he is also the strength of a first-order martial king!" Nalande then introduced another strong man with a strong aura to Lan Qian.
"It's the Martial King powerhouse again!" Lan Qian's heart jumped slightly. However, with his previous experience in Ghost City, Lan Qian can be regarded as having seen the world, and he is also calm and calm at this time.
"These two are my left arm and right arm, both of them are high-level martial marquis strength, the one on the left is Feng Yusheng, and the one on the right is Shangguan Hong!" Nalande introduced again. Lan Qian looked in the direction of Naland's finger and saw two middle-aged martial artists, the one on the left hand was personable and extraordinary, and the one on the right hand had sharp eyes and was very capable, and they all looked very unusual characters.
Later, Naland introduced the seven major city lords of Coconut Island (Guanshan Port - Yu Jian, Kano City - Qimuke, Yishui City - Zhao Shou, Sanchuan City - Shidong, Yuyin City - Yu Tianji, Wangshan City - Rocco, Rhine Port - Wan Xianzong), and the four generals (East - Yuan Cheng, West - Jumao, South - Xiao Gui, North - Wang Peng) respectively to know Lan Qian. Lan Qian saluted one by one, and at the same time, he also found that these people were all middle- and high-level martial arts strength, and each of them had a strong aura, highlighting the heritage of Coconut Island.
Among these people, Lan Qian only knew Qi Muke and Xiao Gui. And after Zimuk knew Lan Qian's latest identity, his attitude towards Lan Qian became more and more respectful, which made Lan Qian can't help but sigh.
"Without further ado, let's talk about the war in front of us!" After introducing the important people on Coconut Island, Nalander went straight to the point and began to get into the topic.
"What is the current situation?" Lan Qian asked with concern, after all, this war had a very direct relationship with him.
"The situation is not optimistic!" Nalande said with a frown, "They came too quickly! I suspect that the Flame Domain had been secretly preparing for battle for a long time before the news broke!"
"Where are they now?
"There are still two days to reach the waters of Coconut Island, and in terms of troops, all the 300,000 troops of the Jiao family will be dispatched, and the Xue family and the Xiong family will each send 200,000 troops to support, a total of 700,000!" Nalande said solemnly.
"700,000!" Lan Qian's scalp tingled after hearing this. This number is more than twice as many as in the previous naval battle, 700,000 people, such a huge number, even the strong warrior king will be exhausted!
"Then how about the strength of our side?" Lan Qian then asked.
"Time is in a hurry, and we have barely assembled 250,000 troops on Coconut Island, but the Chu family and the Cao family can only send 150,000 troops for the time being. Because the battlefield is very close to Coconut Island, we still have to leave 50,000 troops to garrison Coconut Island to prevent emergencies, so we can only use 500,000 troops now, although the Chu family and the Cao family will have 200,000 reinforcements in the future, but it is estimated that it will be a day or two later. ”
"When will the 60,000 elite soldiers and thundercloud eagle flying horses of the Bu family arrive?"
"The domain lord said that they will appear at a critical moment, so let me not consider them in the scope of the frontal battlefield, just as they don't exist, everything should be fought as such!" Naland said a little confused.
"Well, Master He should have his own considerations!" Lan Qian believed in Mo Zhai's decision.
"What about high-end combat power?" Lan Qian continued to ask, although everyone here now is a powerhouse above the middle and high-level martial marquis, but Lan Qian, who has understood the situation, knows that the Jiao family's background is also very strong, and the number of martial marquis is more than hundred. Although the strength of high-end combat power cannot play a decisive role, it can pry the balance of the balance and thus determine the trend of the war, so the comparison of high-end combat power is also very important.
"It is difficult to collect intelligence in this area, after all, the number of high-end combat forces is very small, and it is a high-level secret, so ordinary people can't detect it at all. Naland also wanted to know how many martial arts powerhouses the Jiao family had dispatched this time, but it was too difficult to get information on this aspect.
"However", Nalande continued, "One thing that can be confirmed is that in this big battle, Jiao Wen, the head of the Jiao family, will personally go into battle, in addition, if I guess correctly, the two martial kings of the Jiao family will also send one to worship, and the Xue family and the Xiong family should also send one martial king each to support, so this time, there should be 4 martial kings on the Yan Domain side!"
"4 Martial Kings!" Lan Qian exhaled, it seems that this war is inevitably about to break out into the Martial King War, but in that level of battle, he can't touch the edge at all, and the strength difference is too far!
"Can we send a few more Martial Kings on our side to directly repel them strongly?" Lan Qian had a whim.
"But you can, but if we do this, then the next war will directly rise to a level and turn into a large-scale Martial King War!" Nalande explained, "This kind of thing has not happened in the long history of the East China Sea, you have more Martial Kings, then I have more than you, if you send a second-order Martial King, then I will dispatch a third-order Martial King, and if this continues, in the end, both sides will pay an extremely heavy price!"
After Naland's explanation, Lan Qian instantly understood that today's battle is to fight for troops, tactics, and strategies, and if you lose, you can only blame yourself. If you use top-notch force to suppress it, then the other party will not be polite to you, and in the end, both sides will be broken.
"Another point is that in a war of this scale, the Martial King cannot slaughter the Wuhou, this is an unwritten rule in the East China Sea!"
"Well, that's how it should be!" Lan Qian agreed. If someone sets this precedent, then the war will become a competitive game of slaughter for the Martial King, to see who can kill faster and kill more, this situation, no one wants to see.
The opponent of the martial king should be the martial king, if you defeat the opponent's martial king one-on-one, or even kill the other party, others will not only not say anything, but will also admire your style and spread your prestige. On the contrary, if King Wu slaughters Wuhou, he will only suffer the disdain of the world!
"In this way, in this war, the strength of troops and the use of tactics are the first key factors, and the Wuhou battlefield will become the second key factor that determines the outcome of the battle!"
"That's right!" Naland praised, "Although this time Jiao Wen personally criticized the battle, and there will inevitably be a battle between me and him, but these martial king battles will not affect the entire battle situation, what really affects the battle situation is the two aspects you said." Now our forces are at a disadvantage, so the victory or defeat of the battle is in the hands of the generals and the hands of all the martial marquis here!
"I am willing to fight to the death for the island owner!" everyone replied in unison.
"Okay! Then let's fight! Uncle, the Coconut Island side will be handed over to you!"
"No problem! If the Jiao family dares to go to the island, I will let them all come back without returning!" Nalan Kong assured loudly, and he did have the confidence.
"Let's go!"
With Naland's order, the soldiers of Coconut Island got up and stepped out of the Guanshan Port City Lord's Mansion, and a thrilling battle began.
"Is the Moyan War about to begin?" In the vast sea, Lan Qian stood on the bow of the ship, muttering to himself in a loud voice. Behind him, 200 large warships were mighty and imposing, ready to attack the army of the Flame Domain head-on!
At this time, the time had come to mid-October, Lan Qian was 29 years old, a first-order martial marquis, had opened up the 12 Qi Sutras and Eight Veins, and was about to start experiencing the first big battle in his life.
"What's the matter, it's the first time to face a war of this scale?" Suddenly, a mature middle-aged man's voice came from behind Lan Qian.
"Lord Island!" Lan Qian turned around and found that Nalande had unknowingly come behind him, and hurriedly saluted, but was immediately stopped by Naland.
"Privately, don't be formal!" Nalande waved his hand, and then asked, "Are you nervous?"
"It's okay to be nervous, but I suddenly feel that my personal strength is so small!" Lan Qian sighed.
"I feel that way, too!" Nalander chimed in.
"How could it be?" Lan Qian was very surprised, the Martial King is strong, high up, overlooking all living beings, how strong, such a strong person will also feel small?
"As a martial marquis, you will feel small when you see the martial king standing high. In the same way, our Martial King looks at the Martial Emperor and feels the same way!" Lan Qian looked up at Naland, and Nalande also looked up at other more powerful beings.
"Martial Emperor!" This is a realm that Lan Qian can't even think of, "But after all, the number of Martial Emperors is very small, and in the East China Sea region, Martial Emperors are basically the top existence!"
"The War Demon Continent is vast, the East China Sea is just a very small corner of the border, if nothing else, let's just say that the closest imperial battle place to the East China Sea, where the Martial Kings are everywhere, and the Martial Emperors can be seen at any time, there is the real world of martial artists!" Nalander said, his eyes radiating a scorching light.
"The real world of martial artists!" When he heard this, scenes of bloody killings flashed in Lan Qian's mind, and his heart couldn't help but tremble. When he first stepped into this world, Lan Qian boasted in front of Qu Qiuyun that he wanted to pursue true freedom. But as time passed, Lan Qian became more and more aware of the difficulties of the road of martial arts, and if you were not careful, you would have an enemy, and if you were not careful, someone would suddenly jump out and take your life! In the past, Lan Qian's goal was to promote the Martial King and help the Lan family, but now it seems that this goal is too small.
Suddenly, Lan Qian smiled, "Men are all over the world, so they should go and break out of their own world!" When he said this, Lan Qian's eyes were full of confidence.
Hearing Lan Qian's words, Naland looked at Lan Qian with a strange look, and then smiled, "That's right, that's how it should be!"
"That's a bit of a stretch!" said Naland, after a pause, "I just came to you mainly to tell you something. ”
