Chapter 289: Maritime Affairs
"Someday, I will come back and defeat you personally, remember my name human, my name is Christina!" After recovering from her injuries and pulling her body out of the mountain with difficulty, the female archangel stared at Guo Dafu and said.
Guo Dafu couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Hehe! Miss Angel, what do you want! If you can't beat me now, it will be even more impossible for you to be my opponent in the future, because as you progress, my cultivation will increase at a faster rate! In the future, the gap between the two of us will only get bigger and bigger! ”
"It's really arrogant, you're just a mortal with low blood, I don't believe that your strength can continue to improve so quickly!"
As the female archangel spoke, her body was quickly taken away by a white light that fell from the sky, and apparently her companions also found that she was seriously injured by Guo Dafu, and rushed to take her back for treatment.
In order to avoid the other party from making small moves in the country later, Guo Dafu ordered the big ears to closely monitor the places, and report to him once they found traces of angels or believers who believed in the god of light.
In order to be able to deal with the demon king Carol and the group of angels who suddenly came in the future, Guo Dafu decided to speed up the next step to completely unify the Xuangu Continent.
On the side of the Blood Lion Empire, since the Blood Lion Emperor has been killed, there is no beast at the level of the Beast Emperor to sit in charge, so it is not difficult to attack the others, and it is enough to send a partial division to wipe out the remnants of the group of defeated soldiers hiding in the Blood Lion Empire.
Now what makes Guo Dafu more interested is the Oceanwide Alliance, it is said that the Yingzhou Empire, the strongest in the Oceanwide Alliance, has a beast emperor-level spirit beast, and it is still a very rare Qilin spirit beast.
Since it is a spirit beast, Guo Dafu thought about whether he could subdue it, so that he could also have an extra high-end combat power, after all, now the great grandmaster and beast emperor-level combat power of the Qinglong Empire are still less, among which the great grandmaster and martial artist are only him and Cheng Youniang, and the beast emperor-level combat power is also Xiaoqing and the Holy Tree King, in contrast, the high-end combat power of the demon king Carol and those angels is much more than that of the Qinglong Empire, and in the next case that the Qinglong Empire is likely to fight two, Guo Dafu naturally wants to increase the number of top masters under his command as much as possible.
It just so happened that the newly appointed mayor of a coastal city was said to have met a maritime merchant from the Oceanwide Alliance, and Guo Dafu was going to find the seaman first to learn some details about the Oceanwide Alliance.
Compared with other places, this Oceanwide Alliance is located in the depths of the ocean, so it is extremely difficult for Guo Dafu to send spies to spy on its intelligence, and it takes a long time to go back and forth during the period, and often a lot of news is outdated when it comes back, so Guo Dafu knows very little about it so far, which can be regarded as a gap in the intelligence of the Blue Dragon Empire.
When Guo Dafu arrived at the Yellow Fish Town, Fan Jiajun, the mayor of the town, who had been notified in advance, personally brought a group of officials and the maritime merchant from the Oceanwide Alliance to greet him.
For this Fan Jiajun, Guo Dafu also has some impressions, it is said that before the big change, he was a town mayor on the side of Oranxing, for this kind of official with political experience, the Blue Dragon Empire has always been very welcome, because it can be sent to various places as officials without spending any time on training, helping the Blue Dragon Empire manage those newly occupied areas.
It is precisely because of his political experience that after passing the review, Fan Jiajun also directly became the mayor of this yellow fish town.
Guo Dafu glanced at the Yellow Fish Town, and felt that this young official who looked only in his early thirties was quite capable, at least the Yellow Fish Town, which had just been occupied, was already well governed by it, and there were basically no beggars and gangsters in the town, and most of the people were busy performing their duties.
However, Guo Dafu did not come to inspect the political achievements of Fan Jiajun, the mayor of the town, so he soon came to the office building in the center of the town under his leadership and met with Xia Xionghai, a maritime merchant who was said to be from the Oceanwide Alliance.
Guo Dafu looked at this Xia Xionghai and found that the other party had big shoulders and round waist, bulging muscles, and looked more like a warrior than a businessman, which was in stark contrast to the slender and sven Fan Jiajun.
Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor was looking at Xia Xionghai, Fan Jiajun also helped introduce him, according to him, this Xia Xionghai has been a maritime merchant for more than 20 years, and he has been to many countries over the years, and he has seen a lot of knowledge, these days he and the other party are also talking very happily, and learned a lot of anecdotes about other countries in the Xuangu Continent from the other party, which made him feel eye-opening.
Guo Dafu listened to Fan Jiajun's introduction, and kept smiling and not speaking, until the other party finished speaking, and then asked him: "Listen to your introduction, you two are about to become old friends who don't talk about anything!" Did you learn some specific information about the Oceanwide Alliance from him? For example, how many countries and forces are there in this Transoceanic Alliance, how many troops are there, and how many warships are there? ”
Faced with Guo Dafu's question, Fan Jiajun was a little dumbfounded, he recalled carefully, although he did talk a lot with the other party these days, but he didn't know anything about this information! On the contrary, it was himself, in the process of chatting with the other party, he revealed a lot of the situation of the Blue Dragon Empire.
Guo Dafu looked at Fan Jiajun's suddenly changed face, and probably guessed what was going on, thinking that this young man was really inexperienced! I didn't know any useful information, so I still had to ask for it himself.
After shaking his head helplessly, Guo Dafu asked Xia Xionghai: "Xia Xionghai, you said that you are from the Oceanwide Alliance, which country are you from?" Which route did you follow to us? Could you please mark it on the map? ”
As Guo Dafu's voice fell, an official also spread a world map of the Xuangu Continent on the desk in front of Guo Dafu under Fan Jiajun's instructions.
However, in the face of Guo Dafu's request, the maritime merchant Xia Xionghai was hesitant, and he refused to step forward and mark the location and waterway of the country to which Guo Dafu belonged on the map.
"Huh! Xiao Fan! See! This is what you call a good friend who talks about everything! You're kind to others, but they don't really think of you as a friend! Guo Dafu saw this scene and said to Fan Jiajun with a sneer.
Fan Jiajun really felt very angry at this time, and he felt that he had been deceived by his friends, after all, he had a good chat with the other party during this time, and he did regard Xia Xionghai as a friend, but now it seems that this may be just his wishful thinking.
Looking at Fan Jiajun's devastating appearance, Guo Dafu comforted him and said, "Little Fan! Don't worry too much about it, who doesn't make mistakes! Even the gods make mistakes sometimes, so it's good to pay more attention next time. But it's time for you to change your bad habits, you were like this when you were on the other side of Oran, you were always very tolerant of these foreigners, and even had all kinds of preferential treatment for them, and people showed you some kindness, and you would treat them as good friends, and they would be treated as good friends. I don't know who brought this up the atmosphere in the first place, but in my Blue Dragon Empire, I don't want to see this phenomenon again, no matter which country people are in the future, they must be treated equally, no preferential treatment is allowed, and they must be more guarded against, after all, no one can guarantee whether other countries have good intentions towards our Green Dragon Empire! ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, you must pay attention to it in the future!" Fan Jiajun listened to Guo Dafu's reprimand again and again, this is because he feels that what His Majesty the Emperor said is indeed quite reasonable, and the second is that the other party is the emperor, and if he wants to continue to be promoted in the future, it depends on whether the other party is satisfied with him, so he naturally does not dare to sing any contradiction in front of the other party.
And Xia Xionghai, who had witnessed all this on the side, had a bad feeling, thinking that this emperor of the Blue Dragon Empire didn't seem to be so easy to fool!
It's a pity that he didn't dare to slip away directly, after all, he had also heard that the strength of this Qinglong Empire Emperor was very strong, and he had already slaughtered several Beast Emperor powerhouses with his own hands, and an innate martial artist like him was really like an ant in front of the other party, and if he chose to escape, the other party might be able to kill him with a breath.
And what happened next was indeed as he expected, the Emperor of the Blue Dragon Empire sent several guys who were not good people at first glance to interrogate him for several days and nights.
Although the other party did not take the execution, he used a fatigue interrogation method, taking turns to interrogate him in various ways, and did not give him any time to rest.
In this case, even an innate martial artist like Xia Xionghai quickly couldn't stand it, and in the end, he could only honestly confess in the face of the other party's inquiry, and even honestly confessed that he had made two cameo appearances as a pirate on the way to the Qinglong Empire.
This can't be done without explanation! Those guys will ask him a lot of questions over and over again, once he answers any time that is different from before, he will be noticed by the other party, and then interrogated in a focused way, and when he is repeatedly interrogated to the point of exhaustion, it is impossible for him to guarantee that every lie he tells is flawless, and in the end he can only choose to tell the truth.
And Guo Dafu looked at the interrogation report handed in by his subordinates, and was also very satisfied, then Xia Xionghai at least told Fan Jiajun some truth, that is, he has indeed been to many countries over the years, especially the more powerful countries in the Oceanwide Alliance, he has been there.
In order to be able to better promote his goods locally, Xia Xionghai also carefully understood all kinds of local intelligence, and now these are all cheaper Guo Dafu, so that he finally has a clearer understanding of the situation of the Oceanwide Alliance.
According to Naxia Xionghai's confession, the Oceanwide Alliance had actually fallen into civil strife, and the reason was because the other lords and power leaders were not satisfied with the distribution of the Yingzhou Empire's spoils and territory.
At the beginning, because of the great enemy of the Hanhai Empire, although the two sides had some friction and fighting in private, they were generally able to restrain themselves.
