Chapter 122: Sufficient Defense Force
Xu Yi walked out of the gate of the Zhenxi Army camp, glanced back, and frowned slightly.
The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team has fought many battles with the orcs on the Black Rice Wasteland in the past two years, and they already have a considerable understanding of the orc tribes in the Black Rice Wasteland, so they can easily identify it in the Black Rice Harbor, and these orc tribes that attacked the Black Rice Harbor do not belong to any of the orc tribes in the Black Rice Wasteland.
The Black Rice Wasteland is bordered by the Duchy of Stantin to the south and the Kingdom of Sark to the north, and there is no existence of orcs in the Duchy of Sartine, so these orcs can only come from the Kingdom of Sark.
There is also a strong proof of this inference, that is, among the people who attacked the port of Heimi, there was actually a magician who was still in zài!
Although for Xu Yi, magicians are not unusual, but for the vast majority of people on the Sainz continent, magicians are still quite rare.
Even in the regular army of the Lampari Kingdom, mages are not high-end combat forces that can be routinely equipped.
And the orcs are not naturally very good at magic, so it is even more impossible for there to be a magician.
Not only are these orcs who attacked the port of Heimi fully equipped and obviously trained to fight, but they are even equipped with magicians, so there is no other possibility than the explanation that they were photographed by the Sark Kingdom.
After Xu Yi made this inference, he brought the corpses of the two orcs to the camp of the Zhenxi Army, first, to warn the Zhenxi Army.
The Kingdom of Sark has already begun to make a move against the Black Rice Wasteland, so the next step must be to plan to invade the Lampari Kingdom through the Guò Black Rice Wasteland.
The Zhenxi Army is responsible for guarding the western border of the Lampari Kingdom, and is mainly prepared against attacks from the Black Rice Wasteland in the west and the borders of the Lampari Kingdom and the Sark Kingdom in the northwest.
Now the kingdom of Sark has an action in the Black Rice Wasteland. The Zhenxi Army should have made a move.
Second. Xu Yi planned to take the opportunity to propose a new cooperation plan to Varian Lantis, the commander of the Zhenxi Army. Trying to strengthen the connection with the Zhenxi Army, the Zhenxi Army of Tongguò improved the defense of the border between the Black Rice Wasteland and the Shack Kingdom, and gave the Black Rice Wasteland a stable environment, which was conducive to the smooth development of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and other chambers of commerce that had taken root in the Black Rice Wasteland.
However, to Xu Yi's surprise, whether it was Xu Yi's warning or the new cooperation plan, Admiral Lantis was nonchalant and seemed to have no interest at all.
In the meeting with Xu Yi just now. Although Admiral Rantis was still very polite to Xu Yi, it was obvious that he had a perfunctory attitude and seemed to be lacking in interest.
Xu Yi was very strange at first.
It is said that Xu Yi's warning has a deep relationship with the Zhenxi Army, and the new cooperation plan is also extremely beneficial to the Zhenxi Army.
If it had been before, Admiral Lantis would definitely have fully agreed with Xu Yi's plan and guaranteed that it would be an instant hit.
But this time, even though Xu also proposed a lot of preferential conditions, Admiral Lantis still showed no signs of relenting.
No matter what Xu Yi said, Admiral Lantis used reasons to shirk it.
Later, after the talks, Xu Yi had just said goodbye to Admiral Lantis. When I turned around, I suddenly figured it out.
The problem lies within the kingdom of Lampari.
After Sevini was crowned Queen of Lampari. With the will of the people and the strong strength shown during the previous civil war, he won the support of all the nobles in the kingdom, and it only took less than half a year to almost completely control the entire Lampari Kingdom.
Compared to her predecessor, King Eric, Her Majesty Queen Severny now has far more control over the kingdom of Lampari.
Xu also believed that if she was given a short period of time, she would be able to take full control of the entire Lampari kingdom.
And because he defeated all the opposition forces in the Lampari Kingdom by virtue of the civil war, Sevigny's control over the Lampari Kingdom may even exceed that of Lampari XIII.
In this situation, Admiral Lantis naturally couldn't have fiddled with the Zhenxi Army as his own backyard as before.
If something goes wrong, Her Majesty the Queen will probably not let her go.
According to the strategy of the military headquarters of the Lampari Kingdom, the main defense forces of the kingdom will be concentrated in the north and the border of the Sark Kingdom, and the main task of the Zhenxi Army is to prevent the harassment of the orcs in the Black Rice Wasteland.
Because of the Black Rice Wasteland as a buffer, the west side of the Lampari Kingdom has not been too worried about attacks from the west, so the investment in the Zhenxi Army has not been very high.
What's more, the kingdom's finances of the Lampari Kingdom have not been able to invest heavily in this area.
Therefore, the best way for Admiral Lantis to deal with it is to honestly defend the western border and not do superfluous things.
After thinking about these issues clearly, Xu Yi understood Admiral Lantis's mixed reactions, but he was also a little helpless.
No matter how good his personal relationship with Sevigny is, it is impossible for Sevini to take special care of him and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in terms of the national policy related to the entire Lampari Kingdom.
To put it simply, the Zhenxi Army is unreliable, and if you want to give Heimihuang the original zào a harmonious and stable development environment, you can only rely on yourself.
After figuring this out, Xu Yi drove a medium-sized freight magic locomotive, quickly left the promise of the Zhenxi Army, and rushed back to Heimi City, which was less than two hundred kilometers away from the Zhenxi Army camp.
Another year has passed, and Heimi City has gradually developed from a prototype to a city that is gradually improving.
Not only are living areas, industrial areas, and commercial areas clearly distinguished, but various infrastructure construction is also gradually emerging.
As soon as you enter the area of Heimi City, bright street lamps are lit on both sides of the wide road.
The glow of the magic lamp spread out in all directions, matching the light in the various rooms in the city, and the entire city was illuminated.
Although it can't be compared to the big cities on Earth, it is absolutely unique in the entire Sainz continent.
Many people who come to Heimi City from other places to look for work are already fascinated by the light at night.
According to the statistics made in Heimi City last time, the current registered population of Heimi City has reached more than 186,000 people, and the unregistered population is at least more than 50,000.
With a population of nearly 250,000, even in the Lampari Kingdom, it is definitely at the top.
And if you compare the commercial prosperity, there is absolutely no city in the Lampari Kingdom that can compare with the city of Black Rice.
The freight magic locomotive driven by Xu Yi drove from the darkness of the Black Rice Wasteland into the bright lights of Black Rice City, and the two Black Rice City guards on duty swept over and looked at it, but they didn't pay much attention to it.
There are at least more than a thousand freight magic locomotives coming in and out of Heimi City every day, and there are many of them even at night, so a medium-sized passenger magic locomotive in this area naturally won't attract much attention from them.
However, Xu Yi slowed down the speed of the car, glanced at the two guards more, and recognized from the signs on the two guards that they should be the guards of the Armani Chamber of Commerce.
The management of Heimi City is jointly managed by the four chambers of commerce, namely the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Amrley Chamber of Commerce, the Armani Chamber of Commerce and the Remet Chamber of Commerce, and the defense is naturally also jointly responsible for the four chambers of commerce.
In this regard, the four chambers of commerce are each responsible for an area of Heimi City, which has basically become a fixed pattern now.
Xu Yi didn't have much of an opinion on this model before, because he didn't care too much about defense.
However, after the incident at Heimi Port broke out, Xu Yi found that this model was flawed.
Under normal circumstances, this mode is fine, but in the event of an emergency and a situation that requires a large number of defensive forces, this mode is likely to expose hidden dangers.
Xu Yi drove the medium-sized freight magic locomotive directly to the gate of the Joint Management Council of Hemi City and stopped.
As soon as he jumped out of the car, the guard guarding the door immediately recognized Xu Yi and hurriedly invited him in.
Naturally, it is impossible for the presidents and other important leaders of these four chambers of commerce to stay in Heimi City for a long time to participate in the specific management, and those who are usually in the joint management council are all representatives sent by the four chambers of commerce.
The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is the undisputed boss of the four chambers of commerce, and Xu Yi's status in the joint management council is naturally extremely high.
He was now suddenly visiting late at night, which caused a commotion.
After waiting for a long time, the representatives of the four chambers of commerce, who had basically fallen asleep, all hurried over.
The representative of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is an old employee who entered the Chamber of Commerce at the beginning of the establishment of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
It had been more than five years since he had followed Xu Yi, and this was the first time he had seen such a solemn look on the face of the elder.
Could it be that something big has happened?
Xu Yi beckoned to the four representatives, motioned for them to sit down in front of them, his eyes swept over the faces of the four people, he pondered for a moment, and asked, "You have also been in the Black Rice Wasteland for a short time, and now I ask you a question, I hope you will answer truthfully." ”
The four delegates looked at each other, each with a hint of doubt in their eyes.
President Xu is so solemn, I am afraid that this question is not easy to answer.
"Gregory, just ask. After a moment of silence, seeing that no one answered, the representative of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce immediately answered.
Only then did the representatives of the other three chambers of commerce react and replied in a loud voice: "Yes, yes, please ask President Xu, as long as we know, we will definitely answer like this." ”
"That's good. Xu Yi nodded. "You tell me, how many men do we need, or more specifically, what kind of defense force do we need to control the entire Black Rice Wasteland in our own hands. Even if the Sark Kingdom wants to invade the Black Rice Wasteland, it will be able to fight back?"
"Huh?"
The four representatives all looked at Xu Yi with shocked expressions.
President Xu ...... He actually wants to start a war with the Sark Kingdom, but he can't do it? (To be continued......
