In the huge command room, it fell silent again as King Taishan's words landed.

King Taishan turned a blind eye to the increasingly heavy incomprehensible gaze of the harvest, and after a pause, he continued to speak: "The sailor must ensure that the fleet of the Corpse Country is dragged down, so that they cannot attack the coastline of the Xiazhou Kingdom along the south, so as to ensure the smooth transportation of our army's materials, and all the war supplies and grain and grass are continuously transported from the Six Heavens Continent. ”。

"And our warships are equipped with flint cannons, and the sergeants are also equipped with a swarm of bees, but it seems that the army of the Corpse Country is not equipped with firearms. King Taishan paused at this point and raised the corners of his mouth.

Although the corpse soul must be decapitated before it dies, if it is blown to pieces by a single shot, or if it is swarmed by a swarm of bees, it will inevitably lose all combat effectiveness.

"My lord is saying that in terms of equipment, our army is stronger than the corpse country, right?" After thinking for a while, the slightly chin of the head asked thoughtfully, "So you are not afraid of dividing the troops?"

King Taishan, who had already been confident, hummed his head a little, and continued to say in a flat tone: "And our warship is tall, and it is harder than the sailor warship of the Corpse Country. In close combat, you can sail with the wind, you can crush and sink their small warship, and when attacking from a distance, you can just use firearms to greet them. ”。

After thinking about it carefully and carefully, he also felt reasonable, so he nodded in agreement. But in a moment, he seemed to think of something again, so he frowned and asked, "What if the sailors of the Corpse Country attack it?"

His concern was not unreasonable, after all, they only had one hundred and fifty warships, and most of them were inflexible ships, and once the headwind industry was easily exploited by small and flexible ships.

Moreover, the number of warships owned by the sailors of the entire Corpse Country was far greater than the number of ships brought by King Taishan.

Once the Naval Division of the Corpse Country chooses to attack it in groups and decides to fight to the death with the Beiyin Naval Division, it may not be able to defeat the fleet brought by King Taishan, nor will it necessarily be impossible to make this naval division suffer heavy losses.

"When the enemy advances, I retreat, the enemy is stationed in me, and when the enemy is tired, I fight, and when the enemy retreats, I chase. Already unmoved, the calm face of King Taishan said: "As long as the sailor uses these few moves, he can drag the enemy sailor and be invincible." ”。

He didn't say anything more; As a lieutenant general, he can occasionally give a little advice to the commander, but he will never contradict his boss. This is also one of the reasons why he, as a servant of the gods, has not been killed by Emperor Xudu for thousands of years.

The harvest that doesn't talk much has also gained a firm foothold in the Beiyin Dynasty.

Seeing that he didn't say anything more, King Taishan didn't say anything more, but just said: "Inform our spies on the Huangquan Sea that you must always pay attention to the movements of the Nine Shadows Kingdom." And then there was no follow-up.

After collecting his head again, he put down the bamboo pole in his hand and saluted the King of Taishan respectfully, and then withdrew.

In the huge command room, only King Taishan himself was left. He was still standing on the edge of the sand table, slightly looking down at the mountains and rivers on the sand table, and frowned, as if he was contemplating something.

After a long time, his gaze moved to Daoshan Island in the southwest of Xiazhou Country on the sand table......

At night, at the junction of the Nasha Sea and the Yellow Spring Sea, the tide slows down under the starry sky. They gently surged to the edge of Daoshan Island, slapped against the reef on the shore of the island, and made a rumbling sound before breaking into countless waves.

The defenses on the shore of the island have been rebuilt, and after the island's ghost prisoners have been released, they have all joined the Nine Shadows. Except for the old, young, women and children who were sent to Yunmengzhou and Nanban in batches by sailor in warships, the other strong male ghosts all stayed behind and joined the local Jiuyou National Army.

With their help, it took Lin Cong less than three months to perfect the fortifications of Daoshan Island. Not only did they set up horse rejection and arrow tower turrets on the dangerous beachheads, but they also hollowed out the inside of some reefs near the sea, and then opened arrow holes and shooting holes on the rock walls near the sea, so that those reefs became hidden fortresses on the island, which were even more impregnable.

In addition, except for Dao Mountain, the rest of the land on the island is composed of fertile black soil, and Lin Cong has cultivated these lands in order to prevent being besieged by enemy troops.

In this way, even if the island is besieged, there will be surplus food on the island, and the army defending the island will not be trapped on the island.

The main force of the sailors led by Gonggong, except for the sailors of Sanxing Island and Heilong County, who returned to the station the original way, the rest were still around Daoshan Island. The first is to defend Daoshan Island and escort the transportation of materials on the island, and the second is to train Lin Cong as a sailor on Daoshan Island.

At this time, in the dead of night, Gonggong sat alone in the study of his flagship. The thick snake tail at his waist was coiled in a circle on the roof of the hoop chair covered with a whole tiger skin beneath him.

The co-worker, frowning, stared at the map spread out on the table in front of him.

Recently, the co-workers have been very unhappy, first using the wrong people, causing heavy casualties when the army attacked the island, and then being fined for two years by Xiao Shizhu in anger.

The most terrible thing is that his improper use of people has become a laughing stock in the officialdom of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and many good people actually attribute his demise to the improper use of people.

Gonggong is very angry, but what can he do if he is not angry? He is such a ghost, a ghost who does not know how to use people. I listened to the slander of a tiger before, which led to the people's hearts to the Nine Hidden Country. Now I have listened to Dongmeng's 'bold words', which has led to the tragic death of tens of thousands of ghost soldiers under the enemy's blades.

Thinking about it, a little guilt suddenly appeared in the bottom of Gonggong's heart.

At the same time, there was a commotion outside the house, interrupting the co-worker's train of thought. He was about to get up to see what was going on outside, when the loud and powerful voice of the guard came from outside the closed gate: "Governor Yudu, we have caught a spy from Liutianzhou, he drove a small boat to take advantage of the night to sneakily break into the ship formation, but he did not say that he was your old friend, so he brought him to ask Governor Mingjian." ”。

When the co-worker heard this, he pondered for a moment and then thought about the ghost he knew, and then said to the door, "Bring it in." ”。

As he spoke, the door opened, and the two guards pressed a short, thin middle-aged man with small inverted triangular eyes and a mustache on his face and walked in.

After standing in the middle of their room, one of the soldiers clasped his fist at the co-worker and said, "Governor, the spy is here." ”。

"I'm not a spy, I'm really an old friend of your governors. The human soul who was escorted by the soldiers raised his head, looked at the co-worker opposite, and shouted urgently: "Don't you remember me, Dadu? I am Xiao Mao, have you forgotten? When you first came to the underworld and lived in Youze, we often rowed together to fish in the lake. ”。

Gonggong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and after examining this soul up and down a few times, he vaguely recalled that when he only came to the underworld, he did live in the secluded Ze of Liutianzhou for a period of time, and during that time, there was indeed a human soul named Xiao Mao who went fishing in the lake with him, and the relationship between the two ghosts was not bad at that time.

But later, not long after, Gonggong was sent to Xuanyanzhou to be the prince and king, and as for Xiao Mao's soul, he naturally forgot about it.

Seeing him again today, Gonggong suddenly remembered such a period of the past, but unfortunately he could only remember Xiao Mao's appearance vaguely. After looking at the human soul a few times, Gonggong only felt that it was barely worthy of the little hairy appearance in his memory, but he didn't dare to say that he was completely sure.

So the co-worker asked him, "What kind of house did the Pontus live in when he first came to the underworld?"

"Thatched house. Unexpectedly, the human soul who claimed to be Xiao Mao replied without thinking when he just spoke: "That's the house of you and me, the door is facing north, but there is a crooked-neck willow tree planted in front of the door of your house. In the summer, he sat under the tree, shaking a big cattail fan to enjoy the shade. ”。

As soon as these words came out, a little consternation appeared in the eyes of the co-workers, and they were shocked that this human soul had actually answered correctly. But after a moment, the consternation in his eyes turned into surprise. Immediately after that, Gonggong jumped off the chair, quickly swam in front of Xiao Mao, and said to the two guards who were a little stunned: "He is really my neighbor when I first arrived in the underworld, you don't have to be so nervous, go busy with your business." ”。

The two soldiers looked at each other, and after looking at the co-worker who was grinning happily, he nodded and let go of the human soul who called himself Xiao Mao, and said, "Then he will be handed over to the governor." They turned around and walked out.

"Xiaomao, you are older than before, but you have also matured a lot. The moment the door closed again, the co-worker looked at the soul in front of him again, and asked with a smile, "Why didn't you go to reincarnation after I left?"

Gonggong vaguely remembered that Xiao Mao was a person who died earlier than him, dying in a mudslide caused by a natural disaster. At that time, human beings were very small and fragile in the face of natural disasters, but human souls still wanted to be reincarnated as human beings again, even if natural disasters were rampant in the world.

Xiao Mao is also one of these souls, and his efforts are to be reincarnated as a human being.

"Didn't the underworld system get better and better? After thinking about it, I thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with staying in the underworld to be a ghost, so I gave up. Xiao Mao smiled and said lightly.

"Did you have any difficulties in your life when you came to me today?" the co-worker hurriedly invited him to sit on the chair on the left in front of his desk.

As the past was slowly recalled, Gonggong also remembered the promise he made to his Xiao Mao when he was going to be the prince and king.

He told Xiao Mao at the time that if he needed anything in the underworld in the future, just come to him;

At the end, the co-worker asked, "How did you find me?" As he spoke, he walked to his bookcase, brought the cup of undrunk hot tea on the table and handed it to Xiao Mao.

"The great underworld knows that you led the sailors of the Nine Shadows Kingdom to capture Daoshan Island, so I came here. Xiao Mao took the teacup and laughed heartily: "Haha, you are now a big hero known to everyone." ”。

"Count the heroes to make up, I'm just doing what I'm told. The co-worker scratched his head, and his face inadvertently showed a little grievance, but he did not explain to Xiao Mao that he was punished.

"Actually, I've also heard some rumors that the Nine Shadows King has punished you, right?" Xiao Mao put away the joy on his face, took a sip of tea, and said angrily: "You have made great contributions to this battle, why did he do this?"

The co-workers were not surprised that Xiao Mao knew that he had been fined, but only showed a wry smile in silence.

Yes, Xiao Mao is right, he is the hero of this battle and should not be treated unfairly.

"Honestly, I'm here to give you a better way out. Xiao Mao, who had a calm face, raised his eyes and glanced at the bitterness on Gonggong's face, and said leisurely: "Emperor Xudu asked me to pass a message to you, as long as the Dadu Governor leads the army to rebel, and he will still be the King of Gonggong if he returns to the Beiyin Dynasty." Even the fiefdom has been demarcated for you, which is the former Escape God Kingdom. ”。

Gonggong was stunned when he heard this, and after looking at Xiao Mao for a long time, he slowly sighed: "This condition is really good." ”。

As he spoke, the co-worker's eyes flashed with excitement.
