Sima Wei looked at Ye Wen next to him who was communicating with a small sea monster and dolphin, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, sure enough, there are many talents among the mercenaries. In order to adapt to a variety of living environments, those mercenaries have learned many different survival skills, some are innate, some are taught by people, some are taught by the sky, some are taught by Warcraft, and more are their own exploration. This is the case with Ye Wen in front of him now.

Ye Wen himself is an elf, and the elf itself is the darling of nature, and has an incomparable affinity for natural animals and plants, they can easily communicate with those unseen monsters, and can talk to plants, these natural skills make many people unable to learn. And now Ye Wen is communicating with a demon dolphin. After a long time, Ye Wen finally got up, and the demon dolphin also swam happily around the water's edge.

"How's it going?" Sima Wei asked hurriedly.

"According to the Demon Dolphin, there are many Demon Sharks gathering near Demon Shark Island, and now there are many Demon Sharks gathering there, a large number. Ye Wenyan said sù, he didn't expect to follow Kong Ming to the Huayuan Empire to participate in the war again, for a person who has always liked peace, this kind of thing is tantamount to a torment, but gradually, he found that he actually liked this feeling, this is not to say that he changed the essence of the elves, it can only be said that the war makes everyone crazy. Even the elves who have always been peaceful will not be an exception, after all, the territory of the elves is not obtained out of thin air, and the elven empire is not born, without years of war, without invading the territory of other countries or races, they will not have such a large territory, and if they do not go through years of protection. If you don't block the countless attacks of various races, and if you don't experience countless collapses that are close to extinction, there will be no prosperity of the elven race, and the so-called historical precipitation itself is composed of countless wars and fires, and is made up of countless corpses. They love peace, it doesn't mean they can't fight, they don't like to fight with others, it doesn't mean they don't fight with others, this is the reality. It's also a fairy tale. Because the things they protect have become fairy tales in the eyes of the world, and they have been kinder to them a lot, but if they forget their iron-blooded side, then it will be the time of great disaster. And now, Ye Wen has just been with Kong Ming for a long time. The war factor in the deepest part of his heart has also been stimulated, so he is more aggressive and hot-blooded. Someday. When he returns to their place, then he will be transformed back into his peace-loving, music-loving elf, survival of the fittest, and that's it.

"Do you know the specific number?" Sima Wei asked subconsciously, and then saw Ye Wen looking at him like he was eating for nothing.

"What's wrong?" Sima Wei had a bad premonition. Sure enough, Ye Wen's next words. Let him finally know how stupid he is.

"Do you think the dolphins are human? They can count? They are blessed by God if they can communicate with people, they can know what is in a certain place, they are already the top beings in their race, and they have to count. You might as well be more practical to let them fly in the sky. Ye Wen sneered. After following these mercenaries for a long time, Ye Wen has also learned some human sense of humor.

"Oh, when I didn't ask, but do they know anything else?" Sima Wei suddenly forgot about it.

"They said that they felt that those demon sharks were very angry, and now they were very angry, because after their king died, several powerful demon sharks in their clan were hunted again, so they wanted to take revenge. After Ye Wen communicated with the demon dolphin, he said to Sima Wei.

"In other words, the commander's statement is correct!" Sima Wei said, he didn't avoid Ye Wen, because Ye Wen himself could be regarded as Kong Ming's cronies, and he had to let him know something if he wanted to communicate with the Demon Beast.

"That's right. And it seems that there is more than that, according to them, there are many large ships gathering in the waters where the demon sharks are located. Ye Wen said. When he said this, he already knew the severity of the matter, and Demon Shark Island was thinking about wiping down the entire East China Sea Navy. They want to follow behind the typhoon and give the East China Sea Navy a fatal blow when the East China Sea Navy is in chaos, so that the East China Sea Navy cannot turn over.

Kong Ming looked at the sea from the room, listened to Sima Wei and Ye Wen's reports, and couldn't help but think about it. He never understood whether the civil strife on Demon Shark Island was deliberately caused by someone, or whether the rumors released there made them make a wrong judgment, knowing that if the navy was given another three months of training time, the combat effectiveness could at least be doubled, especially those who had never fought at sea would improve even faster. But the news of a civil strife made Kong Ming immediately make a plan to send troops, because the opportunity cannot be lost, and he will not come again, and he has grown up as a mercenary, he is more inclined to train troops on the battlefield more realistically, and it is undoubtedly a stupid way to think about the enemy, because there are too many accidental factors in war, and these factors will make people fascinated and crazy. The weaker side needs this kind of chance to turn defeat into victory, and the stronger side needs this kind of evenness to allow them to reduce their losses, in short, because war is a contest of strength and intelligence on both sides, plus the influence of nature, how many famous generals and how many races they have achieved.

"Can you figure out the real time and strength of their coming?" Kong Ming didn't look at Sima Wei and them, but still looked at the sea.

Sima Wei looked at Ye Wen, he didn't know this at all, how could he say it, not to mention that the demonic beasts really didn't have any concept of time. Ye Wen looked at Sima Wei, and then said: "The time of their attack cannot be known, but the strength of the demon shark is a little known, the demon dolphin said, there is at least a large group of demon sharks there that make them feel afraid, it is a seventh-level demonic beast, that is to say, the demon sharks have a large group of eighth-level demon sharks, this time it is obvious that the demon sharks have summoned all the powerful races in the nearby area, and the only ones who can summon them all are Sha Yu's sons." Whether or not one of them is a demon shark or just has demon shark blood, but this time they are clearly going to fight the war to the end. ”

Listening to Ye Wen's words, Kong Ming thought for a while and said, "If we take advantage of their heart, maybe we can defeat them directly on the sea, without having to do anything like landing." Well, plan well. ”

Kong Ming's words stimulated the two of them a lot, could it be that Kong Ming wanted to finish the battle of Demon Shark Island in one battle, in this way, is it necessary to take a big risk, you must know that as the people on Demon Shark Island who survive by the sea, most of them have the experience of sailing on the sea, and they can be said to be natural sailors, once Demon Shark Island gathers those people together, they can become a powerful navy. It's terrifying.

"Kong Ming, isn't this a little too risky?" said Sima Wei as he wiped the sweat from his forehead. When there is no one else around, the two are friends, and Ye Wen is also Kong Ming's friend, so now the fat man directly calls Kong Ming's name.

"yes. Is this really a little too risky?" Ye Wen also asked, although he said. He had long been accustomed to Kongming's different views on war. But for a while, he still didn't adapt to Kong Ming's thoughts, not that he couldn't keep up with the shape, but that the leadership changed too quickly.

Kong Ming smiled, shook his head and smiled, "If it is a normal situation of attacking Demon Shark Island, it is impossible for us to catch them all at all. You must know that they are the head snakes of the land, we are fighting on their land, and it is difficult to wipe out their main force in a month or two, and you must know that their territory is equivalent to the size of half of our province. So as long as they take advantage of the terrain, we have to divide a large part of our forces to encircle and suppress these people. However, now that they are using their familiarity with the sea, they want to follow the typhoon and attack our warships when the typhoon comes, then this is also a good opportunity for us to kill them, fortunately, the demon shark can kill as many as we can, but once we have their fleet left, then we can sail the ship to their territory as we please, without having to find other ships. Moreover, as long as we take one of their cities, we can set up a teleportation array and send people and material resources to it continuously, you must know that sometimes, a powerful sage can withstand many people. ”

Hearing Kong Ming's words, the two of them were really speechless, you know, they are still afraid that others will take the initiative to attack, but Kong Ming is eager for others to come and attack, these are completely different concepts.

While the two were thinking about it, Kong Ming smiled and said, "Let's go to the harbor, I hope the sea trip will not disappoint me." ”

The seaport is a huge bay, which is large enough to accommodate the entire East China Sea Fleet, and there is still a lot of space, and the water in the bay is deep enough to be a rare deep-water harbor, and the two peninsulas surround the harbor together, leaving only a gap of about five kilometers, and this topography also makes the seaport an excellent harbor for ships to shelter from typhoons. As two peninsulas deep into the sea, the peninsula where Marina University is located is one of them. At this time, Kong Ming was sitting at the highest point of his castle, and all the ships of the East China Sea Fleet had already entered the harbor, in order not to attract people's attention, Kong Ming let some of the soldiers of the East China Sea go home, leaving only those who were strong enough to deal with the demon shark, and there were also a lot of reserves, this method also made those spies mixed in the coastal city feel a lot more at ease, because from the outside, the East China Sea Fleet was not the slightest defense. But inside, the entire East China Sea Fleet is undergoing a rigorous test and arrangement of the personnel on board. Everyone has to go through an expedition similar to that of Kong Ming when he was at the Imperial Capital University, of course, for various reasons, it is impossible to deal with Kong Ming as it is, but to adopt a more acceptable method, because this method is not only convenient, but also easy to accept and operate. It was in this kind of testing that nearly 3,000 spies from various countries were identified. Among them, those spies from Demon Shark Island were directly executed. Kong Ming, a spy placed in other countries, directly registered them, and then arranged them back to their original posts with peace of mind, and told them that the expeditionary force welcomed them, and at the same time announced their identities to all the crew, but did not exclude them, for Kong Ming, under his hands were his soldiers, although these people had various purposes, but one thing made Kong Ming very happy, that is, these people were not only spies, but also messengers of exchanges between the two countries, so once they were used well, they were not afraid of any trouble, but because this kind of exchange could other countries better understand what the imperial expeditionary force could get。 This will also prompt them to join this kind of adventure, so that they can indirectly share the pressure of the empire, knowing that conquering a continent with the power of a country is just a dream, and Kong Ming is not arrogant enough to do so. But once the countries of a continent have formed a consensus, then there will be more human, material and financial resources to use, and you must know that compared with those humans of unknown race on other continents, ordinary people are more inclined to deal with people they are familiar with. It's human nature.

A few people could be seen coming and going on the moored boats, sometimes throwing one or two huge house-like things into the water. And the magic crystal cannons on the ship are all set up in the battle position. A lot of people are constantly moving between the boat and the sea. They were preparing for the battle that was to come.

"What are you going to do?" asked Kumei. As an experienced naval officer, Haiyue has a wealth of experience in dealing with attacks by sea creatures.

"We have a lot of nets, harpoons, and spearguns to fight in the water. In addition, we have a lot of empty rooms in the water, where there is enough air, so that those who are in the water have some place to use the air. and not suffocate to death. A magic crystal cannon is set up on the side of the ship, which can hit the demonic beasts at the bottom of the sea with fire at any time. Hai Xing said. This is the usual way to deal with the monsters in the water.

"Specific methods. Kong Ming said.

"When they come. We're going to drop nets, restrict their movements, entangle them, and then hit them with harpoons and spearguns, causing them to bleed to death. If they come to the surface, we'll bombard them with magic crystal cannons. Hai Xing said. This is the way to deal with the monsters in the water.

"That's not enough. Kong Ming shook his head, if he followed this plan, even if the Eastern Expeditionary Force killed more demonic beasts, the ships of the Expeditionary Force would lose too much and the gains would outweigh the losses.

"Why?" asked Haixing. If that's not enough, then what else can be done?

"We are going to fight with the overlord of the sea, and there will be many such battles in the future, so I did not set the battlefield in the open sea, but in the harbor, which is to reach the body of these monsters to obtain first-hand information about the battle at sea, so we will place a lot of surveillance objects in this water, and your battle will be seen by the rest of us, so I hope you can come up with more ways to deal with the monsters in the sea, not just limited to this traditional thing, these things are too inefficient, and if it is determined by the level, we are a seventh-level powerhouse and a seventh-level demonic beast fighting in the water, Our people will be in a weak situation, but if we directly send six seventh-level powerhouses to deal with a seventh-level Warcraft, we will also achieve a decisive victory, but this method is not what we want, because here we will be on the strong side, but once we get to the sea, the infinite sea Warcraft is our nightmare, so we must use the advantage and terrain this time to get a way to deal with the attacks of the hordes of Warcraft in the sea. That's what this battle is for. ”

Kong Ming's words surprised everyone present, they thought that they came back to use this kind of terrain to destroy the enemy who would attack the future, but who would have thought that Kong Ming's ambition was more than this, but for the sake of the future.

"Tomorrow, a group of experimental weapons and personnel will come to your ships, and they will bring with them many strange weapons, and each of your ships will send people to entertain them, they are the alchemists of our Primordial University, the people who have built weapons for our voyage, and the success of these weapons will determine how far we can go in this expedition. Kong Ming said, his words made people even more strange, I don't know what the weapon he is talking about, but I think it has a certain power, otherwise, Kong Ming will not introduce this kind of thing to them, but what disappointed them is that Kong Ming did not make any explanation of these things, and what they don't know is that Kong Dan doesn't know what the ability of these things is, he just listened to the alchemists of Binhai University, because when they were formed, they were commissioned by Kong Ming to develop a batch of weapons for sea warfare, whether it is on the water or under the water, or against the air, no matter whether it is successful or not, all of which will be paid by the Eastern Naval District. What Kong Ming didn't expect was that because Kong Ming's last sentence, no matter whether it was success or failure, it was up to the Eastern Naval Region to pay for it, this sentence made those alchemists crazy, they always used some things they wanted to do in this name to obtain funds, and then after making them out, they did everything possible to link them with the navy's combat or life, these things are a great waste of funds for the entire East China Sea, but it must be said that there are also a number of things that change the times, although they have nothing to do with combat.

"Okay, but I hope they follow the rules of the ship, otherwise they won't be taken into account in the middle of the battle. Hai Xing said, he took these as a burden that Kong Ming threw at him.

"Tomorrow, will you command here, or will you go to the castle with us?" Kong Ming asked, he was not familiar with this kind of battle, so he did not directly intervene in the command this time.

"I'm on the command ship. Hai Xing resolutely said that in the middle of the battle, it is understandable that Kong Ming is not there, because Kong Ming is responsible for the entire battle, but he can't, because he is responsible for the entire naval battle.

"I wish you success!" Kong Ming said with a smile, this is what he wants to see, in a fleet without a commander, the fleet is ineffective.

"Thank you, Commander, I think I will succeed. Hai Xing said.

After watching Kong Ming leave, Hai Xing breathed a sigh of relief, to be honest, when Kong Ming said that their combat strength was backward, his heart was very angry, but years of experience made him not lose his temper in front of Kong Ming, even when Kong Ming made it clear that he was leaving, his disappointment in his heart for Kong Ming reached its peak, because he thought that as the commander of an army, Kong Ming should be with them when they were fighting, but Kong Ming did not do so.

"General, is there a little bit of that Commander?" said a staff officer next to Haixing after watching Kong Ming leave.

"Staff Officer Zhang, from now on, you will be transferred to the No. 10 ship to be the first officer. The sea line replied coldly.

"General!" Staff Officer Zhang was stunned, if he left the command ship and went to the front line, then he would most certainly face those huge demon sharks directly, this situation was a nightmare for him who was used to being arrogant. After a staff officer left with Staff Officer Zhang, Haixing looked at the personnel who had not yet come to their senses and said, "I know what you want to say, but I think the commander must have his reasons for leaving here." ”

After saying that, he took a few people to the various ships to continue to check the combat preparations.

"Lao Li, did you say that the general had some mistakes. After watching the sea sail leave, a young staff officer asked an old staff officer.

"Boy, learn a little, the general is not too much at all, if it were me, I would have abolished that kid on the spot. You know, the commander came up from the bottom to the bottom, unlike someone, it was the aunt's cousin's second sister-in-law's brother-in-law's sister's husband who sent it. The commander must have placed complete trust in the general by handing over this place to the general, and the commander, there must be something more important to do than fighting a war here, otherwise I think he would have been with us. ”

The old staff officer said.

"You kid said it well!" a rough voice came, it turned out that Hai Xing was uncomfortable and walked a few steps back back.

"There must be something more important than this in the commander. But what could be more important than a battle?"

Haixing thought suspiciously. (To be continued......)
