Chapter 18: Noxus Comes
Ever since the news spread that Noxus was planning to attack Chang'an, everyone's spirits were in a tense state. www.biquge.info This string has been tightened for too long, and if the army of Noxus is allowed to camp outside the fortress of Drum Mountain, I am afraid that there will be a big problem.
However, it is not impossible to solve all the Noxian armies in one fell swoop.
Mo Chen thought of that sky fortress, his eyes flashing with different colors.
At the speed of a fortress, it won't take an hour to reach Blackstone City.
According to the intelligence of the spies, the other armies had already left the city two days ago. As long as you are fast enough, you can take the lead in defeating the army before they retreat back into the city!
"It's not that there is no room for maneuver in this matter." After Mo Chen figured it out in his heart, he didn't hesitate anymore, looked at Li Si's solemn face, and chuckled.
Sky Fortress is expensive, but it's definitely worth the price. The Sky Fortress, which can carry 100,000 people, has never appeared in Valoran's recent history.
In Valoran today, many technologies are still at the level of the First World War on Earth. For example, large airships, old airplanes, steam robots, and so on.
Although Valoran's various weapons are more powerful, it is only due to the difference in the world and the difference in various crafting materials. Its scientific achievements and ideas are still in the embryonic stage of development.
At least today's Hextech company has not achieved as much as later generations.
Although he had a leading position in Piltover, it had not yet become the legal norm in Piltover, as it had been in later generations. As for those legendary mecha equipment, as well as all kinds of fantastic interstellar equipment, there is still a long way to go.
The current Piltover is only beginning to make a name for itself on the Valoran continent because of its short time as a city. To some extent, it is not even as prominent as Chang'an's reputation.
"The Grand Duke means, the Sky Fortress." When Li Si heard this, his eyes flashed with a bright divine light that he didn't dare to look at directly, and his voice was a little strange excited, and he said in a low voice.
These days, in addition to dealing with the big and small affairs of Chang'an, Li Si has also done quite a deep study of the main god. The level of meticulousness of its research, and even the statistics and summaries of all the items that can be exchanged!
After studying all the items that could be exchanged for the main god, Li Si naturally focused on those things that would be helpful to Chang'an.
And the Sky Fortress is exactly one of the objects he focuses on.
"Yes, with the Sky Fortress, it is enough for us to solve all the troubles!" Mo Chen nodded and said with a smile.
When Li Si heard this, the solemn color on his face dissipated, and he responded with a smile.
With the speed of Sky Fortress, it's enough to solve all the troubles before Noxus reacts!
Zhao Hu stood aside stupidly, listening to the conversation between the two, only to feel as if he was in the fog and couldn't understand it at all. He still hadn't figured out what the Sky Fortress was and why it was able to solve all the problems.
Li Si pondered for a while, then bowed his hand and said, "A simple sky fortress is not enough to solve the problem perfectly. If the Grand Duke has enough exchange points, it is better to get some more battle golems. ”
The power of the Sky Fortress is too great, and once the fire is fully fired, it will be a naked slaughter.
Mo Chen's plan is not to destroy all the armies, but to subdue the forces belonging to the four cities and complete the integration of the Dongtu clan.
In this case, simple slaughter will only backfire and ultimately weaken one's own power. Although the combat puppet is not very powerful, it is a very suitable choice in this war.
Mo Chen nodded, staring at the map with lost eyes, and did not speak.
He had also considered this question. Even made a detailed understanding of all the low-level battle puppets.
The three categories of technology, fantasy, and magic have their own biases.
Technology focuses on higher intelligence and can execute some complex commands, while fantasy and magic focus on strong combat effectiveness and long battery life.
Just as Mo Chen was thinking about the advantages and disadvantages of the various puppets and how to distribute the number of puppets to buy, a hurried voice sounded from outside the room.
"Grand Duke, there is an urgent report from the Drum Mountain Fortress, and the messenger of Noxus has asked to meet the Grand Duke."
With a hurried voice, Zhao Yun's figure appeared outside the study. She knocked on the door twice casually, and in Zhao Hu's angry gaze, she pushed open the door and walked in.
Mo Chen casually took the letterhead in Zhao Yun's hand, and quickly swept the information on it, his eyes flashing with a bright divine light.
"Reply to Zhao Gao immediately and let him go!" Mo Chen threw the letterhead in his hand on the round table, glanced at Zhao Yun with a proud face, and said in a deep voice.
Messenger of Noxus, I want to see what tricks you can play.
Zhao Yun got the order, and Zhao Hu, who didn't look at Zhao Hu with a stinky face, smiled at Mo Chen, and walked out without hurrying.
"Grand Duke, our plan, do you want it?" Li Si glanced at the contents of the letterhead, and hesitated with a slight wrinkle on his face.
If Mo Chen now receives the messenger of Noxus, then the previously scheduled late-night raid will not start.
"Plan for business as usual!" Mo Chen's face was as calm as water, and his eyes were as deep as the starry sky, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.
Half an hour later, the Duke's Palace was in the main hall.
At this time in the past, the main hall of parliament and government had already been closed. But today, the hall is very lively.
In the spacious hall, there are more than 30 people standing in total.
Some of them wore official uniforms, some wore battle armor, and some wore ordinary robes. There are more than 30 figures, mainly divided into two large circles.
One is dominated by officials of Chang'an City in official uniforms, and the other is dominated by people in gorgeous regular uniforms, and those generals in battle armor, although standing on the side of officials, faintly keep a distance.
"Lord Jia, you have deep trust in the Grand Duke, I don't know what news there is." An emaciated old man in a black official robe stood in front of Jia Daodao, with a gentle smile on his face, and asked in a low voice.
Although his voice was low, the distance between the crowd was not far away, so the others could hear it very clearly. Hearing his question, the whispers of the surrounding people suddenly disappeared, and everyone turned their eyes to Jia Daodao.
Facing everyone's gaze, Jia Daode had a gentle smile on his chubby round face, looking amiable.
"Isn't Lord Zhang embarrassing me, since the Grand Duke didn't notify me in advance, where do you dare to reveal it at will." Jia Daodao's face was full of helplessness, he didn't dare to say much, and he was powerless to complain in his heart.
You didn't get the message, did I get the message?
In the eyes of others, because he betrayed Qin Ming, he became a celebrity in front of the Grand Duke.
But Jia Daode himself knew that in Mo Chen's eyes, he was just an ornament, an ornament for those who had taken refuge in Qin Ming, but were not deeply involved.
Let them understand that Qin Ming's matter is over, all the same party has been dealt with, and others will never be implicated again.
It's just such an embarrassing thing, can you still say it?
Jia Daode shook his head helplessly, once the matter was revealed, it would only make his situation more embarrassing. In this situation, at least he can gain the awe of others and have a chance to gain the trust of the Grand Duke again.
"Master Jia, we've been friends for many years, can't we reveal it at all?" Master Zhang's face showed a little embarrassment, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart.
Jia Daode is now in charge of the Ministry of Works, but he is in charge of the Ministry of Officials.
The two seem to be at the same level, but they are really counted as at least half a level stronger than him, after all, the Ministry of Officials is responsible for the major matters of official promotion review.
Although Chang'an City is not large, and the resident population is only about two million, although the sparrows are small and well-equipped, the responsibilities of the officials are still quite important.
As for the Ministry of Industry, Lord Zhang was disdainful.
When Jia Daode heard this, he saw the slightly changing expressions of the people around him, and regretted that he had just pretended to be too forced. His current situation is already embarrassing, and if he is considered pampered and spoiled again, it will be a big trouble.
The thought in his heart turned, a helpless smile appeared on his face, and he said softly: "Ahem, Master Zhang has said this, how can I refuse." ”
Jia Daode said, pretending to point to the west mysteriously, with an unfathomable smile on his face, his eyes slightly closed and he never spoke again.
Damn, what you don't know, I don't even know about it. In that case, then you can guess!
Jia Daode was annoyed by everyone's persistence in his heart, and although he had an unfathomable smile on his face, he had already scolded his mother in his heart.
Master Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then reacted instantly.
This is from the West, is it because of Noxus?
He thought in his heart, and then carefully looked at the people in the main hall, and his face suddenly became solemn.
The Chinese military attachés in the main hall gathered, and although those on the other side were not nobles, they were also well-known figures in Chang'an City.
Among them, there are not only the maritime merchants of Chang'an City, but also famous scholars and well-known figures from all walks of life in Chang'an.
The Grand Duke gathered these people, apparently announcing something important. At such a time, it can be called a big thing, of course, something related to Noxus.
After Master Zhang figured it out, his face showed a sudden look, and he smiled and arched his hand to Jia Daodao.
As long as you know the purpose of the Grand Duke's summoning of everyone, you will be able to deal with the next thing.
The Grand Duke is showing his prime, not to mention whether Chang'an can resist Noxus, at least it is not wrong to leave a good impression on the Grand Duke.
Anyway, even if Chang'an City can't be defended, with the relationship between the Grand Duke and the strategist to lead Svein, there will be no danger in Noxus. I hugged this thigh tightly, and there will be a way out in the future no matter what.
When everyone saw Lord Zhang's expression, some people showed thoughtful expressions, while others were still at a loss, not understanding the doorway. (To be continued.) )
