An energy cannon fired from Kapok's chariot not only knocked down the target tree designated by King Rinkai, but also dispelled all doubts that King Rinkai and his ministers had any doubts about the terrifying message he had brought.

When Kapok stepped out of the chariot, the King of Linhai led his ministers to meet him and express his awe. For the first time, I saw the tremendous power of this extraterrestrial chariot, and Jiesheng was also full of joy and confidence.

Everyone happily returned to the council hall, the guest of honor sat down, and the king of Linhai said in a sincere tone: "Prince, if your prairie can sell more than a dozen such chariots to the countries of our Xizhou, plus the total strength of our Xizhou is far more than 50,000, we Xizhou people are fully confident that we can defeat the genetic people. ”

Kapok Zi said with a serious expression: "Your Majesty, as long as your countries in the West Continent can stop the civil war and unite to fight against the genetic people, our prairie will provide your countries with as many chariots and more advanced gunpowder guns as possible. ”

King Linhai hurriedly asked, "May I ask the prince, when will the chariots and other advanced weapons of the prairie be transported to Xizhou?" ”

Kapok Zi said: "The descendants of the Heavenly King, Shanglin and Princess Zhen'er, are directing the military factories of our prairie to manufacture the latest chariots and guns day and night, and the five steamboat steel ships that we started to build five years ago are about to be completed, so our first batch of weapons and military supplies is expected to be transported to Xizhou within two months." ”

King Linhai raised his eyebrows, patted his chest with his hand, and said confidently: "Prince, this king is willing to underwrite your first batch of weapons. For the sake of Mr. Ben Wang's friends for many years, I hope that the prince will give this king a lot of discounts in terms of price. ”

Kapok Zi and Jiesheng couldn't help but laugh dumbly, but a little helplessness swelled in their hearts, this king of Linhai actually thought that the prince of the prairie had come from afar to sell weapons in the name of war, and the king of Linhai himself wanted to take the opportunity to make a windfall. It can be seen that the King of Linhai and his ministers still underestimate the harsh situation after the invasion of Xizhou by the seamen, and they still think that they can still stay outside the battlefield and take the opportunity to do more business and make a big profit.

Kapok Zi said with a smile: "Your Majesty has misunderstood what this prince meant, our Prairie has not sent weapons to Xizhou to trade with you Xizhou people, but to fully support your Xizhou to resist the invasion of gene people." ”

King Linhai asked suspiciously, "What does the prince mean to give us weapons from the Xizhou people for free?" ”

Kapok nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, however, we only provide weapons to those Xizhou kingdoms and armies who are really fighting against the genetic people. Moreover, the premise is that the Westerners must first stop the civil war. ”

"The prince meant, the king understands!" King Linhai's face became solemn, and he looked at Jiesheng, "Mr. Jiesheng should be very clear about the situation in Xizhou, my Linhai people love peace and have always strictly maintained neutrality, but other kingdoms in Xizhou have been at war with each other.

Now, because the ancient land country has annexed the western land, the three southern countries have united to fight the ancient land country. The king knows that he has no power to dissuade them from stopping the civil war, and he has no intention of intervening in the dispute between them, and as long as they do not bring the flames of war to our coastal country, this king will not fire a single shot at the legions of other countries. However, if the genetic people of the undersea really invaded Xizhou in a full-scale way, there was no reason why they should not stop the civil war. ”

"Your Majesty, it will be too late to talk about stopping the civil war when the Gene People launch a full-scale attack on Xizhou!" Jiesheng followed the words of the King of the Sea, "That's why the Prince of Jiuxian City hurried to Xizhou as soon as he returned from the outside of the sky to obtain the information of the undersea people, and the purpose of his trip was to persuade the people of Xizhou to stop the civil war immediately!" Subsequently, all countries united to strengthen war preparations and various military construction, and ordered all the military and civilians of Xizhou to jointly meet a cruel war that had never been experienced in the history of Xizhou. ”

Speaking of this, Jiesheng paused, he looked around and stared at his ministers and said, "My lords, once the genetic people occupy the Xizhou Continent, all the people in the Xizhou will become their slaves and be slaughtered. They are completely alien compared to us landlings, and after they occupy the land, they will mercilessly kill all the old, weak, sick and disabled landers, leaving only those young and strong landers to serve as their slaves and work as coolies for them! ”

King Linhai and the ministers all changed their faces when they heard Jiesheng's last few words, and in their impression, Jiesheng was an honest person who was well-informed and cultivated, and his words would not be false.

Seeing that his words had a deterrent effect, Jiesheng continued: "So, Your Majesty, my lords, the strict observance of the national policy of neutrality is not only useless to the genetic people, but only fuels their cruel nature, and we landers can only survive if we unite and resist to the death.

Although the prairie has the strength to fight against the Gene People, the transportation capacity of the distant sea is very limited, and weapons and troops cannot be transported to Xizhou in large quantities in a short period of time, and the Gene People have gathered on the islands on the coast of Xizhou, they can get support from the underwater world at any time, and they are ready to launch a full-scale war against Xizhou at any time, so the Xizhou people must immediately stop the civil war and prepare to meet the powerful and brutal foreign enemies to kill the Xizhou people!"

After Jiesheng's impassioned speech, the ministers, who had been silent, could no longer control the panic in their hearts and began to talk about each other.

After pondering for a moment, the King of Linhai looked at Kapok Zi and said, "Prince, this king and a million people of Linhai would rather die in battle than become slaves of genetic people!" However, Mr. Jiesheng knows the background of this king, and this king has only 20 army corps with a total of 20,000 generals. It is not difficult to recruit troops, but the difficulty is that we do not have advanced weapons, and the army does not have any actual combat experience. Therefore, I hope that the prince will provide the king with enough weapons and chariots, and what the prince needs the king to do, please ask the public now, and as long as the king and the ministers present here can do what they can do, they will do their best to complete it. ”

Kapok said solemnly: "As long as Your Majesty and everyone here make up their minds to fight against the genetic people, and immediately take action to do a good job of military defense and military deployment, this prince will do his best to meet your weapon requirements." In addition to providing weapons, we in the prairie will send an expeditionary force to assist you Xizhou people in the war, and your Majesty may need to provide some logistical support for our expeditionary force at that time.

Mr. Jiesheng is already the commander of our expeditionary force, and he is directly involved in the final decision-making and command of our expeditionary force, and he has maintained close contact with His Majesty and you since the outbreak of war. ”

King Linhai and his ministers all had joyful expressions on their faces, and it was clear that they were pleased with the appointment of Jiesheng.

King Linhai looked at Kapok Zi and said with a smile: "The prince is really a discerning talent, this king has long taken a fancy to Mr. Jiesheng, and he has been invited to be an official many times without success, it seems that the prince's face is much bigger than that of this king." ”

The tense nerves of the ministers in the room relaxed, and a slight laugh rang out in the chamber.

Jiesheng said with a smile: "Thanks to Your Majesty's promotion, however, Jiesheng asked Your Majesty for something before accompanying the prince to leave Wanghai City, please ask Your Majesty for permission." ”

King Linhai immediately became serious, looked at Jiesheng and asked, "What does Mr. Jiesheng want?" ”

"Jiesheng has long heard that His Majesty's technician has surveyed and mapped the most complete landform map of the Xizhou Continent, please Your Majesty can give Jiesheng a copy, and in the future to fight against the genetic people, this map will be of great use." Jiesheng said solemnly.

King Linhai said happily: "Okay! The king will send someone to fetch it at once! Where are the princes and Mr. Jiesheng going after they leave Wanghai City? ”

Jiesheng replied noncommittally: "Our plan is to urge the warring four countries to immediately stop the civil war and prepare to fight against the genetic people as soon as possible, which country does Your Majesty think we should go to first?" ”

The King of Linhai replied without hesitation: "The key to the truce is the King of the Ancient Land, and the cause of this War of the Four Kingdoms is that the King of the Ancient Land occupied the Western Kingdom, which caused panic among the three southern kingdoms. However, it may not be easy to convince the Gudi King to stop fighting, he has just captured Xihai City without much effort, and his morale is high, although his total strength is only fifty corps, which is less than the total strength of the three southern kingdoms of seventy corps, but his corps has recently been equipped with a new type of gunpowder gun, and its combat effectiveness has been greatly improved.

Moreover, as far as this king knows, Mr. Setsuo has said before that he has not had much contact with the King of the Ancient Land, and perhaps the King of the Ancient Land and his ministers have never heard of the legendary story of the Prince of Jiuxian City, so even if the prince goes to pay a visit, he may not believe that the undersea gene people will invade Xizhou soon. ”

Kapok Zi has always been not afraid of power, and he said in a gloomy and rough voice: "Since Your Majesty said that the King of Gudi is the key to the truce, then let's go to him first!" If he doesn't listen to good words and persuasions, don't blame Prince Ben for being unkind to him!"

King Linhai showed a worried look on his face, and said to Kapok: "Although the prince's chariot is invincible in the world, after all, there is only one, and the king of the ancient land has fifty legions of elite soldiers, and his palace guard alone has a well-equipped legion. The prince and Mr. Jiesheng must be cautious when they go to see the king of Gudi, your safety is related to the survival of Xizhou. This king thinks that he can only persuade the king of the ancient land with kind words and not to use force, or this king will send a legion to escort the prince and Mr. Jiesheng to the ancient city?"

Kapok Zi turned his face and asked Jiesheng: "What does the military advisor think?" ”

Jiesheng thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, but the ancient city is eight hundred miles away from here, and it will take at least eight days to get to the ancient city with a legion, and the current situation requires us to race against time." What's more, if the military force is really mobilized, one legion against the fifty legions of the Gudi King will not only be useless, but will also seriously damage the relationship between the Linhai Kingdom and the Gudi Kingdom, and it will be even more detrimental to the future unity and resistance of the war. ”

Kapok nodded yes.

King Linhai said: "Mr. Jiesheng is reasonable, this king is no longer reluctant. However, since the prince has come from afar and has to travel from afar, it is better to stay in my Wanghai City for one night, so that the king and the ministers present at him may have the opportunity to entertain the prince with the courtesy of the landlord. ”

Kapok Zi turned his face again and asked, "What does the military advisor think?" ”

Jiesheng said with a smile: "Your Majesty is so gracious, if the prince does not stay to accompany His Majesty and the adults present to have a few drinks, he will be offended, and I am afraid it will be very detrimental to the unity of the war of resistance in the future." ”

There was a burst of happy laughter in the hall, and the face of the King of the Sea showed joy.

Kapok smiled at King Linhai and said, "Okay, this prince will taste His Majesty's wine." ”

"Your Majesty, my lords, the prince and the prince can only go to today's luncheon with your majesty and all the adults, and we must set out at sunset in the afternoon, because at night the road is scarce, and the prince's chariot can run at full speed without hindrance, and we will reach the ancient city before dawn tomorrow." ”
