At the same time, on the second floor of a tavern next to the street, a young man with a gloomy face stood in front of a window facing the street, looked at the imperial princess who walked by in the midst of the many people, and said with a sneer: "It's really lively! So many people, I don't know if they think this is her coronation ceremony! ”

"Your Royal Highness, princess, she is indeed getting more and more excessive, do you want us to give her some warnings and let her restrain herself?" A black-robed man behind the young man spoke after hearing his master's words full of resentment and jealousy.

"What use are your warnings! My sister has always been not afraid of the sky and the earth! And all the officials love her so much, and my father and mother are so doting on her, it's no wonder that she will rein in because of one of your warnings! ”

"But fortunately, I already have some plans to deal with her, and if this plan can be successful, I can get rid of her directly!"

Listening to his master's murderous words, those black-robed people couldn't help but feel chills in their hearts, after all, the person who the other party shouted to get rid of was his own sister!

Guo Dafu didn't know that the expeditionary army on his side hadn't set off yet! One of the three fierce beast empires in the Central Continent, because of a certain prince's strong desire for the throne, a civil strife is about to break out.

However, on Guo Dafu's side, the combat preparations have been almost done, and the expedition is about to be launched, and the thirty ironclad ships promised by Dr. Zhang have been built, including sixteen Python-class destroyers, eight Jiaolong-class cruisers, and six Qiulong-class battleships.

In addition, Guo Dafu selected a full 150 of the wooden warships of the White Elephant Empire as transport ships and also served as aircraft carriers. However, it is said that it is an aircraft carrier, and it is not an airplane on it, but the battle has to fight with all kinds of flying beasts, these flying beasts include both original fierce beasts such as Shenhuo Flying Crow, and fierce beasts transformed by Dr. Zhang.

In fact, these transport ships are not small, the hulls are at least 100 meters long, and many of the hull surfaces are also equipped with steel plates, which greatly strengthens the defense.

In terms of the army that went out, it was still the 500,000 that was planned before, but in fact, the field elite under Guo Dafu was already not more than 500,000, but close to 600,000, after all, there were really a lot of militiamen like Wu Da Hammer who wanted to improve, and a large part of them had improved their cultivation during this period of time and reached the standard of joining the field corps.

However, the fleet organized by Guo Dafu this time can only transport 500,000 landing troops at a time, and it can't be transported if there are more, so it can only leave the remaining nearly 100,000 field elites on Roaring Island as a force to guard the mainland.

And among the various troops, in order to win the quota for this expedition, the competition is extremely fierce, after all, there is a battle to have military merits! If you go to the Central Continent, it will definitely be a big fight, so those soldiers who want to make a contribution don't want to miss this opportunity.

Some well-informed soldiers have already heard about it, and it won't be long before the previous aristocratic title system will be restored, and if the title is high enough, it can even become a feudal official, similar to the existence of the emperor of the soil.

In fact, Guo Dafu was also very helpless to do this, after all, in the Xuangu Continent, most of the scientific and technological creations could not be used, which made it difficult for a country to completely take care of once the territory ruled by a country was too large.

If it weren't for the help of his wife Su Li and those experts recruited by the other party during this time, Guo Dafu might not be able to manage this roaring island alone.

Therefore, in order to reduce his pressure in this regard, so that he could have more time for cultivation and conquest, Guo Dafu had to restore the previous aristocratic system and divide the territory he had conquered.

On the eve of the fleet being equipped and preparing to set off for the expedition, Dr. Zhang sent two new pieces of equipment that had just been made, saying that it was new equipment, but in fact, it had already been available on the Orlan Star side, but it had not yet fully matured after being transplanted to this Xuangu Continent.

One of them is a heavy machine gun, this thing consumes more bullets than a rifle, and the trigger is pulled to death, and it swept up suddenly, and thousands of bullets may be consumed unconsciously.

And this thing also has high requirements for the quality of the bullet, once the size error of the bullet is too large, maybe the heavy machine gun will jam while hitting.

It is precisely because of these two difficulties that Dr. Zhang has never dared to manufacture this kind of weapon on a large scale, after all, they do not have the kind of powerful production that can meet the huge consumption of heavy machine guns for bullets, nor do they have a sufficient number of skilled workers who can help them manufacture qualified heavy machine gun bullets on a large scale.

Guo Dafu actually discovered the huge shortcomings of his current power, so he asked people to search for various production tools such as lathes that could still be used on the Orlan Star side, and at the same time started literacy work in his own territory, especially those children who have not yet reached adulthood, one by one entered the school to study, so that when these children grow up, they will basically have learned, and they have enough knowledge to become those skilled workers.

However, all this takes time, this expedition, Guo Dafu's troops, or can only be equipped with a large number of flintlock rifles such as primitive firearms, as for the heavy machine gun, Dr. Zhang is symbolically made a dozen or so, after all, this thing consumes too much bullets, and now these bullets are still made by the old technicians Guo Dafu found on the side of Orlan Star using simple tools little by little!

In addition to the heavy machine gun, another weapon is the rocket, the accuracy of this thing is too poor, Dr. Zhang When they first tested it, there were actually rockets that would fly back.

After all, the rocket they made was too rudimentary, a metal cylinder filled with explosives and propellants, and then a pointed metal warhead was added to the front, without any guidance system.

Later, Dr. Zhang and the others managed to optimize the bodies of some of these rockets to make them more aerodynamic, and added a pair of tails to their tails to increase their flight stability. This makes it finally impossible to fly back.

However, the accuracy is still urgent, and after many tests, its accidental injuries are basically above 100 meters.

So for this weapon that was made in a hurry, it is far from being mature, and Dr. Zhang and they didn't produce much, but they made a hundred pieces for Guo Dafu and them to take to test the water, after all, the amount of charge of this thing is still not small, and the explosion power is definitely not weak, maybe it is better to deal with those large-scale enemy forces!

After saying goodbye to his wife Su Li, who was in charge of staying behind, Guo Dafu took his army to board a Jiaolong-class battleship as the flagship and officially set off.

The fleet warships and transport ships that went out this time were all dragged by huge aquatic beasts under the water, and these fierce beasts were at least second-order beast generals, behemoths with a body length of dozens of meters, and many of them also had water control abilities.

Therefore, this makes the aircraft carrier of the expeditionary fleet under the command of Guo Dafu very high, and after sailing for a period of time and the speed has stabilized, after calculation, the current sailing speed of the fleet has reached about 30 knots.

Guo Dafu was very satisfied with this result, after all, he had learned from the old crew members of the former White Elephant Empire that the maximum speed of their previous sail warships was generally difficult to reach ten knots, and this was still under the premise of a tailwind.

Now, the speed of the fleet under his command has suddenly increased to about thirty knots, which is definitely a huge improvement.

On the first day of the expedition, Guo Dafu and many of his generals were vigilantly watching the movements in the sea on the bow of the ship, ready to face the demonized beasts that came out of the sea at any time.

However, perhaps because Guo Dafu's fleet was too large, and there were too many masters among them, they were so frightened that none of the demonic beasts along the way dared to come forward, making Guo Dafu and them all lonely.

Unlike the calm during Guo Dafu's voyage, on the side of the Golden Eagle Empire, a civil strife was about to break out.

On this day, the imperial princess Ling Zhi was preparing to go to the palace to visit her father, which was also the last time she went to visit her father before her wedding, and in a few days, her wedding would be held.

However, Ling Zhi didn't expect that as soon as she entered the palace, she was targeted, and then a group of well-equipped soldiers began to quietly surround her, and there were many innate masters.

Ling Zhi finally noticed that something was wrong when he was more than halfway through the journey, but at this time it was too late, because the encirclement had been formed, and then the people behind the scenes gave an order, and those soldiers no longer hid their figures, and one by one they went out of their bodies, blocking Ling Zhi and several people in a corner of the palace.

"What are you going to do? Want to rebel? Ling Zhi's captain of the guard pulled out the long knife at his waist and blocked the princess's front of him, shouting at the soldiers who surrounded them.

As soon as the captain of the guard finished speaking, Ling Feng, the great prince of the empire, came out from among the many soldiers, and retorted with a righteous and awe-inspiring face: "Wrong! You're the ones who really rebelled, right? We are just arresting the thieves at the behest of His Majesty! ”

When the captain of the guard saw the appearance of the eldest prince Ling Feng, he was stunned for a moment, but when he saw a guard behind him with his head bowed and his eyes flashing, he suddenly realized, because that guy was a soldier under his command, and he was among the people who had witnessed the princess secretly release the group of imperial rebels.

Now that this guy is standing behind the eldest prince Ling Feng, he obviously doesn't know when he has been bought by the other party, and he told the secret to the eldest prince Ling Feng.

"You traitor, when has the princess ever treated you badly? You betrayed her! I'll kill you! Enraged, the captain of the guard slashed at the man.

However, as soon as his sword was slashed, he was crushed by a spear-wielding guard beside the eldest prince Ling Feng.

The eldest prince Ling Feng even took the opportunity to shout: "This group of traitors still dare to resist, let me shoot arrows, and shoot them indiscriminately!" ”

With his order, those soldiers with bows and arrows opened their bows and arrows one after another, aiming at Ling Zhi and the others who were blocked in the corner of the palace.

Seeing that these people were about to be shot by random arrows, Ling Zhi finally shouted: "Stop it!" ”

Perhaps it was because the prestige of the imperial princess was too high, and as she shouted, the soldiers who were already preparing to release their arrows couldn't help but stop their movements, wanting to see what else the imperial princess had to say.
