"Your Majesty, the battle beneath the surface of the sea has begun."

In the Monarch airship, the goblin messenger who received the news reported the news to Xia Qi as soon as possible.

Xia Qi, who heard the news, directly showed a look of pain on his face.

This time, he was bleeding, and he didn't know how much money he would burn after this wave.

Regarding this problem, Xia Qi is not even willing to think about it now.

Beneath the surface of the sea.

A round of hard blows, directly and heavily damaged the narwhal troops.

The terrifying power directly made the whale people, who were still menacing a moment ago, instantly become instigated.

After that, the subsequent attacks of the first unit of the Submarine Hunters were downgraded to normal spell attacks.

This is not just to save money for his own majesty, but because of this level of attack, two hits in a row, are completely excessive attacks.

The narwhal troops, who had not yet recovered their breath, were completely overwhelmed by ordinary spell attacks in the blink of an eye, and many whale people were shot into sieves on the spot.

You know, the fifty previous Hunters who operated the Spell-Enhanced Harpoon Guns were completely incomparable to the soldiers of the First Unit of the Hunters.

After professional training, the first unit of the submarine hunters, the whole attack completely showed the essence of "fast, accurate, and ruthless".

At this time, the morale of the narwhalal troops was directly destroyed by the banner.

And the lieutenant colonel of the swordfish people in the rear had already reacted at this time, and they were obviously recruited.

It was not they who discovered the hiding place of the East Sea Fleet, but the East Sea Fleet deliberately exposed its location and led them here.

It's a trap!!

The tragic situation of the whale man was presented in front of their eyes, and the fish-man soldiers, who were also aware of their own situation, were directly confused at this moment.

They wanted to retreat, but the way back had been cut off.

A full 700 submersible hunters, in a row of 100 people, lined up directly under the sea in seven columns, launched a multi-stage attack.

It hadn't been long since the battle began, but the rhythm of the Fishman Force had already been defeated by the First Force of the Diving Hunters.

Although the 700 dive hunters who cut off their back path were all using ordinary attacks, the fish-man troops at this time had already turned into frightened birds after what had happened before, and they didn't dare to rush there at all.

In the current situation, the only way to survive is the deep sea directly below.

Lieutenant Colonel Swordfish Man hurriedly gave the order to retreat, and a large number of Fishmen poured directly into the deep sea.

Faced with this situation, the submarine hunter unit evacuated after two rounds of pursuit, and then signaled that the submarine hunters who had been waiting there for a long time began to drop depth charges!

Although the lizards among the lizardmen can move in the water for a relatively long time, they are not comparable to the aborigines after all, so diving into the deep sea is a difficult thing for them.

On the one hand, it is difficult to adapt to the water pressure of the deep sea, and on the other hand, because the deep sea is in a place where no light hits, and in that dark environment, they are basically unable to move.

In this way, the fish-man troops can't fight and have to flee into the deep sea, and they really can't chase too far.

Fortunately, this step is also within Xia Qi and Lu Meng's layout.

A large number of deep-sea bombs were dropped, and they didn't know how many fish-people were killed, anyway, after this battle, the corpses of fish-man soldiers were floating everywhere on the sea.

Let the lizardmen underwater combat troops dispose of those corpses, lest they accidentally spread any disease and end up in their own pits.

As for leaving the corpses here, they evacuated and left the mess with the fish-men, which was actually a bad idea.

Tianwei also belongs to the race of the orc civilization, and the fish-man clan also has super physical resistance and immunity, if they play this method with the orc civilization, they will only suffer in the end.

After counting the corpses of the fishmen, this battle was definitely a big victory for Great Xia.

Leaving aside the shattered corpses, a total of 2,129 fish-man corpses were confirmed, of which 99 were whale-people.

This time, the fish-man side can be said to have suffered heavy losses.

In contrast, it was the Sailfish people who stayed in the rear at that time, ready to wait for the opportunity to attack, and the troops were preserved.

This time, Xia enabled a typical morale flow play, first a head-on attack, then a second-stage pursuit, and then combined with the means of breaking the back road, directly constituted a three-stage morale blow, and directly beat the opposite fish-man troops to the ground.

And after receiving the report of his own army's victory after the battle, Xia Qi didn't show too much joy, which in his opinion, was completely deserved.

The narwhal troop on the opposite side had less than two hundred troops, and his first troop of submariners had eight hundred submersible hunters armed with spell-enhanced harpoon guns.

In the case of rushing head-on from the opposite side, if this cannot be won, then there is no need for the first unit of the Submarine Hunters to exist.

In this way, compared to the result of this big victory, the consumption problem of this battle is the last thing Xia Qi wants to face.

For the consumption of this battle, Xia Qi actually has a lot in his heart, so this statistical report was directly inspired by Xia to the old minister of the Ministry of Finance.

Depth charges aside, although so many depth charges are dropped, the money burned is definitely not a small amount, but fortunately, he can build depth charges indefinitely, there are almost no restrictions, and there is no shortage of materials.

What really made Xia Qi's flesh hurt was the consumption of spell weapons.

Each spell-enhanced special harpoon consumes a piece of spirit wood and a small piece of magic crystal, and the spell-enhanced harpoon gun to launch a spell attack also consumes a water-based magic crystal as an energy source.

Magic crystals and spirit wood are both materials with limited production, and this kind of thing is the most expensive!

At the same time as sending the statistical report to Great Xia, the statistical report from Great Xia City was also passed to Xia Qi's hands.

Over the years, with the complete unification of all the territories of the Central Continent, after the unilateral expenditure of resources in the early years, in recent years, those territories that they have conquered have finally begun to provide them with productivity and development.

The original players' factory facilities have all returned to normal operation.

The cultivation of the fields and the production of grain have not been slackened.

In addition, there are various resource points that can mine all kinds of ores and oil, which has greatly improved the mineral deposits in various parts of Great Xia, and Xia Qi feels that he no longer needs to worry about the problem of ore reserves in the past hundred years. At the same time, the territory of the Imperial District, which was first subdued by him, has basically recovered its vitality after enjoying several years of preferential development policies, and can start collecting taxes.

This is a visible growth for the financial economy of Great Xia!

Compared with the slightly tight days of previous years, the past two years have finally come to an end, ushering in a big explosion of finance, productivity and resource output.

At the same time, a large number of people and labor have been filled into various positions.

Several Northland cities that had been destroyed by the Coalition forces in the early years of the war could now finally begin to be rebuilt.

Although Xia Qi regained the lost territory in the early years, he never had the intention of rebuilding the Northland city.

One of the reasons for this is that the battle that follows is taken into account.

In case the enemy comes again, instead of letting the city that has just been rebuilt or half rebuilt suffer again, it is better to let him continue to break it first, and directly meet the enemy with Lu Longse, which is led by the white wolf, which is more convenient and stable.

On the other hand, the reason, to put it bluntly, is poverty.

At that time, Xia Qi not only did not have enough labor on hand, but even the finances were relatively tight, and he had to build a naval fleet, how could he have the spare money to do this.

It is precisely for this reason that, despite the fact that many people of the northern tribes have been petitioning for the rebuilding of the northern cities so that they can return to their homeland.

However, Xia Qi, who received these petition reports, has always focused on appeasement, and did not directly agree to this matter.

But now, the situation is different, overlooking the entire central continent, the northern cities are almost located in the middle of this central continent.

In other words, even if there is another war that spreads to this central continent in the future, it will be difficult for the enemy to hit this area again, so the reconstruction and siege of the northern cities can be regarded as beginable.

At the same time, taking advantage of the opportunity of the reconstruction of the northern cities, Xia Qi directly ordered the construction engineering department to re-plan the blueprint of the cities, and further expand the area of the city.

After all, over the years, the internal population of Great Xia has snowballed more and more, especially in the area where human beings are concentrated, the population density is quite large, and it is imperative to migrate a group of people to other places.

According to this development, it is not possible to gradually start to build cities in the bitter cold land, the western grasslands, and the northeastern wilderness, which are not very suitable for human habitation, and there are not many resources to collect.

Of course, this is all for the future, and I will not consider it for now.

At present, just a few major projects in front of us are enough to keep the construction engineering department busy for several years.

As soon as these major projects are carried out, a series of factories that provide basic building materials, such as quarries, brick factories, cement factories, and lumber yards, will definitely have to keep up with the exploitation and output of building materials resources.

As a result, this large number of factories will definitely have to be fully staffed to improve production and mining efficiency, and at the same time, a large amount of financial funds will have to be allocated downward, and according to this trend, it may be necessary to increase the number of factory facilities.

After coming and going, after Xia Qi received the news from Great Xia City again, his eyelids couldn't help twitching a few times.

He didn't have a few days of money together, and he was poor again all of a sudden.
