Chapter 338: Game-style War One
"I can't say for sure yet, but hopefully so. Yi Si got up again, pacing back and forth while analyzing: "If these notices are posted by others, they should give everyone a step, a route to ease the conflict. But it's the same as we were at the beginning, giving advice but not wanting to attract hatred. If it is posted by the royal family of the kingdom, nine out of ten is as you think. ”
Jiao Ming nodded in agreement, but he couldn't help but laugh and said: "The trick of posting notices has also been learned, so how do I feel that you crooked tricks are learned quickly, and you can't learn good things." ”
Although he has had a stalemate with the major families of the kingdom in the past few dozen days, but his compatriots have been humiliated, Yi Si still glared at Jiao Ming fiercely, but because the facts were so irrefutable, he directly diverted the topic: "It's useless to talk more, at this time, the information is limited, and no matter how much speculation you have, it's just speculation after all." ”
The two reached a consensus on this and waited for follow-up information, while all evacuation plans were suspended, and the factory construction plan remained unchanged. When Yisi went to work on his own factory, Jiao Ming asked the silent personality, after all, this border friction was too coincidental no matter how you look at it.
... It's just to find a buyer for Trollin and dispose of the cost price of the eliminated guns...
... Guns? Well, nothing else?...
The normal personality first exclaimed, then questioned. Although the power of the bullet is not bad, it can be easily blocked by the air and earth magicians, and the water magic warriors have the possibility of self-healing as long as their brains are not blown up, but the fire magic lacks protection, but in the case of the magician team, there is no need to worry about cold guns. It's hard to imagine that a few old smoothbore guns can shake the kingdom up.
... I don't know the specifics, maybe it's Tro Ling who has tasted the benefits of arms sales and brought private goods, or maybe the border army of the Red Mountain Kingdom has long been rotten...
... Why are you doing this...
Jiao Ming, a normal personality, figured out the situation, and a sense of guilt suddenly rose in his heart, and his mood fell. In film and television dramas, warmongers have always been the standard profession of villains, although they had long guessed that the personality of the silent person would embark on this road sooner or later, but they didn't expect it to be so fast.
... Do you need me to take out the pros and cons of the lighthouse country's gun ban before I fry cold rice? Hehe, then to put it another way, the Red Mountain Kingdom is bullying the small, they are defending their own justice, and we are partners in justice...
... There has never been a just war...
... Yo he, there is growth, I will quote these bullshit quotes. According to the historical records of the Hongshan Kingdom, none of the peripheral territories where border friction occurred exceeded 100 years...
... I can't argue with you. But, but those border soldiers died because of us ...
... If you like to talk, go and wake up the madman, I don't have time to accompany you. If there's nothing more important, see you later...
The conversation came to an abrupt end, Jiao Ming sighed, and simply found Chunyu to participate in heavy physical labor such as moving stones, so that the physical exhaustion could relieve the depressed mood.
In this way, three days later, when the large-scale refrigeration equipment purchased from the crocodile collar by the fruit popsicle factory was installed as planned, Jiao Ming, who was releasing weightlessness and acting as a tower crane, was stumbled by Isla, who came in a hurry, and almost threw the large refrigerator to the ground. finally finished the work in a cold sweat, and just wanted to lecture Yisi, but was pasted on his face by a thick stack of intelligence materials.
Knowing that the matter was urgent, he didn't care about arguing, and hurriedly swept through the information and the attached copy of the "Industrial Daily", but Jiao Ming was so excited that he forgot the unhappiness just now.
Not to mention the rumors of a few 'important figures' written on the intelligence, just the "Industry Daily" vigorously publicized the shareholding supervision mechanism led by a certain moral pacesetter, which made people eat three popsicles in a row in the summer. And by the way, the crime of Sir Burr and others was convicted: the gossip confuses the people's minds in order to achieve the goal of becoming famous and starting a family, and this news is even more relieving.
And all signs point to a nearly ninety-degree shift in the royal family's attitude towards the reformist aristocracy, or toward industrialization. From the prohibition in the mouth of the newspaper, to the initial acquiescence and even a little support, as for the lives of Sir Burr and others, it was obviously only a greeting to ease the atmosphere.
Combining the fragmentary information received in the past three days, the trajectory of the change in the attitude of the upper echelons of the kingdom became clearer and clearer in the eyes of Jiao Ming and Yisi.
The royal family of the kingdom is not stupid, from that battle report, they saw the true situation hidden and sent the qi system magician space teleportation to verify, to be confirmed that it was a big defeat that had not been encountered for decades, and the kingdom naturally attached great importance to it. After the battlefield intelligence and the confessions of the defeated soldiers were fully collected, some of the upper echelons of the kingdom with military experience made war deductions by comparing their combat strength, and soon came to a result that destroyed the usual pride: if Tro led the attack, I am afraid that it would have the same fate as the Furke Kingdom, which lost nearly half of the country and married its daughter. After all, there is no need to guess where those guns, cannons, and floating pallets came from, the visiting group saw it with their own eyes, and the imaginary enemy also applied the Tro Collar by the way.
And then the kingdom was divided at the top. The unification will be unimpressed with the new thing of industrialization, and will be suspicious of the prospects of its promises, and will consider the benefits to be more than worth the loss. Some of the 'important people' began to re-examine the long-lost industrialization plan, and although they did not support it, they also wanted to see the real thing, not some 'stake game'.
Then the suppression of the reformist aristocracy by the royal family of the kingdom will not be supported by all the 'important figures', after all, this will completely cut off the possibility of industrialization, who would dare to try it rashly in a short period of time? Of course, this is also because they don't know the true situation of the Barony of Jiao Ming, after all, Jiao Ming and Yisi have always been low-key, and they have never made a big splash in Qingshui City, and the few documents they have also lost in the corners of the palace, and a small number of families have received replies from nephews or spies who have come here to work, but they have neither paid attention to nor spread them.
"That's about it, and if there are omissions, it's just minutiae. Eth summed up on scratch paper filled with a jumble of analysis and guesses. Seeing Jiao Ming nodded, he continued: "In other words, the "New Agricultural Plan" unfortunately bumped into the war report, and the attitude feedback heard by Tan was not true. Considering the situation at this time, we can continue to do it boldly with confidence. What do you think?"
"Heroes see the same thing. Jiao Ming, who had similar thoughts in his heart, boasted half a sentence by the way.
Eth rolled her eyes, frustrated with the sluggish response, "Then hurry up and teleport people back, or I'm going to be driven crazy by those bastards down there, I tell you, it's scary for me to go crazy." ”
Jiao Ming slapped his forehead, then remembered this matter, and without saying a word, he activated the teleportation array and pulled back the manpower who had returned to the crocodile collar for many days for a 'leisure vacation'. And this time, even Liu Ba couldn't bear it, first expressed understanding, and then asked with a bitter face. Jiao Ming thought about it and chose to tell the truth, "Although the situation is very good this time, it can't be ruled out that the situation of sudden changes in the wind and clouds cannot be ruled out, you can know it in your own heart, and you will find a way to appease the people below." ”
Liu Ba's face was even more bitter.
After the sky was dyed red, Jiao Ming finally completed the transmission of nearly 100 people in batches. Although many ordinary people who are just unable to communicate with the magical medium are much easier than teleportation magicians, they are also tired enough to choke and have a faint pain in their heads, so they have canceled the work of buckling the boulders after dinner tonight and returned to their rooms to rest.
But after lying down for a long time, Jiao Ming was woken up by Luohua, but Master Emily, who hadn't visited for a long time, came, saying that there was good news and was waiting outside the door. After tidying up his clothes a little and going out, he felt the warm fragrant nephrite in his arms in a daze, and then his feet were unstable, and he lay in the arms of Luohua, who let go of his arms in time. The instant dreamy touch of the front and back chests almost made Jiao Ming think that he hadn't woken up yet.
After the three of them separated, Jiao Ming looked at Master Emily, who was smiling like a mentally retarded master, and didn't know what to say for a while, until he was stabbed in the back by Luohua, and then he opened his mouth to lead the other party to the top study and ask about the situation.
"The materials you sent helped a lot!"
Jiao Ming was stunned for a moment, remembering the incident of seeing the reward at the Crocodile Leader Magic Research Institute, although it was only more than twenty days ago, but too many things had happened in these days, and it seemed like a long time ago when he recalled it at this time. "We don't have to say anything about the master-apprentice relationship, we should help you. ”
"That's right. Emily's smile became brighter and brighter, and she walked a few quick steps but turned around like a model, not only showing her bumpy figure, but also shaking the two soft balls, and said coquettishly: "Then don't you want to reward you?"
Jiao Ming looked away, but he couldn't remember what the reward was written on the bounty list, but he thought it was just some mundane things, "That hug just now is the best reward." ”
"You kid is getting better and better at talking, if only the number of rings had improved like this. ”
"It's hard. Jiao Ming shook his head, thinking of the madman personality who sent the soul fragments casually, he couldn't control this goods, and the promotion ring number was completely wishful thinking. "Without any fuss, you haven't told me exactly what the powder does. ”
"Guess what?"
Jiao Ming was really a little stunned. Calculating the age, this Amy seems to have officially entered the age of thirty, but at this time she behaves like a thirteen-year-old girl, and she can't help but think of the embarrassment after being poured aphrodisiacs at the blind date, and asked, "Did you drink anything strange before you came?"
"Huh?" Emily was a little stunned. Instantly understood what Jiao Ming meant, ashamed and annoyed, grabbed Jiao Ming's neck and just raised his face, but laughed again, "It's just too happy and happy, I haven't been so happy for a long time, I'm sorry to scare you." ”
Seeing that the other party was a little normal, Jiao Ming breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good." ”
"Also, I've been very careful since the last time I was hit. Don't worry. Emily stopped at a window on the stairs and looked out at the tropical landscape, and for a long time, the expression on her face finally converged to her usual appearance.
At this moment, Jiao Ming was apologetic, and hurriedly explained: "You misunderstood, I am not one of those old stubborns who strictly follow aristocratic etiquette. It's just that I've never seen you look like this, and I'm a little worried, not scared. To be honest, many of my friends are so much crazier than you just now, and I'm not scared. Next time you look like that, I'll definitely be happy with you. ”
"Really?" Emily turned her head.
"It's true, and you know, I've always been a dislike of 'Moody and Moody'. ”
"Unfortunately, that momentum has passed. Emily continued to walk towards the top floor study, "How do you say you can compensate me?"
"This ...... Next time you encounter any strange materials, I'll send them to you as soon as possible?"
"Don't think about getting by! You have to help me make another research result that is equally worth hapting, and then celebrate happily with me. ”
"It's a deal!" Jiao Ming stretched out his palm, deciding to make a pact before Emily thought of the time limit. Emily ignored this and smiled and high-fived.
After a few words, the two of them had already come to the top floor, Jiao Ming ordered Luohua to have dinner in the study, and then led Emily to take a seat, and then continued the topic just now: "Those black powders ......"
"Let me ask you first, are those black pieces and wood pieces really the body of the West Cookton Wall?"
"It's like a fake. Jiao Ming smiled slightly, and as he spoke, he took out two more watermelon-sized balls and put them on the table for Emily to check.
"When you first said that the silver ring works, I didn't believe it. Now it seems that if you had verified it at the beginning, you would have saved a lot of effort. Emily ** held the two balls, there was only a trace of remorse in her eyes, and then she stretched out her hand and said, "That silver ring, lend me to try." ”
Jiao Ming offered it directly with both hands.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll take it privately?"
"I won't hide it from you, I dared to borrow you to study this thing when I didn't know that it was bound to me, and now I'm not afraid of losing it, half a continent away, I can also teleport this thing back to my hand." ”
Emily raised an eyebrow, "I thought you'd keep saying pretty things." ”
"In my opinion, that hug is indeed the best reward, without a hint of falsehood. If I say that I believe you here, although it is also true, it is not the whole truth, and I am always uneasy. ”
"I'm even happier with that, do you want to hug me again as a reward?"
Jiao Ming smiled and opened his arms, but one was long and one was short, and the left arm that was thrown into the theocratic kingdom of the Mother Earth God Sect had already regenerated half. But Emily is not as open as Eth after all, and she snorts to bring the conversation back to business, talking about the role of black powder. Jiao Ming, who had expected it, immediately put away his arms and listened intently.
When Yan Ming met Brother Dao in an online game a few years ago, he was a tall elf ranger called 'Prodigal Son Knife', and the title of Brother Dao came from this. Unexpectedly, it is reasonable that this guy's body is a short and dumpty. The height of 1.6 meters is thicker and shorter due to obesity, and the protruding belly is like that of a pregnant woman. The front and back double-layered chin and bulging cheeks prop up the big face, but the already small facial features are cautiously gathered together, and with the white skin like rice paper, there is a blank effect like an ink painting. When the two words blank space appeared in Ge Jian's mind, he almost couldn't suppress his laughter.
Yan Ming warmly hugged Brother Dao who opened the door, and after entering the door, he gave a brief introduction to Brother Dao and Ge Jian. Ge Jian wanted to say a few polite greetings, but he didn't want Brother Dao to say, 'Let's do the right thing', so he took the two of them to the four computers in the living room, and the computer screen was already a logged in game interface.
