"You're pretty good at making up stories. Ponouk's face did not change: "Spend a lot of money to help him recapture the royal capital, and then slaughter him?" Don't you even want the capital? Think I haven't read?" The merchant who was pinched was so uncomfortable that he couldn't even speak: "No~~ So, how can ~~ support his ~~ people fish out ~~~ to catch them all?" I'm with you~~~~"

Ponuuk's choke hand still didn't let go: "Hmph, there is no evidence, empty talk, just want to get out." Think I'm so easy to deceive?" the other party said in a deep voice: "There are credentials." A post-dated bill of exchange with his name on it was given to a large goblin mercenary leader named Elijah. This man's team will serve as the Serpent King's personal guard, so they have a chance. After completing the mission, you can go away and get money to enjoy. But the bill of exchange is on my companion. ”

Bonuk said coldly: "It's quite round." Our royal capital is heavily guarded, and with a few of your teams of mercenaries, you can't attack it?dream!" Then I thought of the key: "Could it be that ~~~~ You have an internal response in the royal capital??" The other party's face changed slightly, and Bonouk's next sentence made his eyes change: "Hmph! I understand, you just want to make the situation more chaotic - the chaotic king and we are two factions, that is, the two heads of the country." Let the king of chaos break through the royal capital, which is to destroy our leader. Then you assassinate the king of chaos, and you destroy another leader. In this way, the two leaders will be destroyed, and no one will be able to unite the scattered forces, and the country will surely rise together with bandits, and there will be no peace!"

The merchant who was choked suddenly laughed: "You are not a very person, why do you have to work for those snake people and barbarians in Tubulaki? I don't know who it is?" Most of the legendary warriors are famous, because they are all honed in actual combat, and there can never be a legendary warrior who 'lives in seclusion in the mountains and no one knows'. Although some of the Divine Fist Envoys live in seclusion in the mountains or on islands, they are also famous. Because people who have lived a peaceful and reclusive life for a long time don't even have a training environment, how can they exercise amazing martial arts?

Seeing that Ponuk didn't speak, he became even bolder: "Look at you're not a snake man, nor a scaly descendant, eighty percent of what you are trying to do is money." Seeing that Bonouk continued to speak, he said bluntly: "Your Excellency is probably younger. I don't know what's in the water. I'll get straight to the point. Whether it is the king, the current samurai group, or the priest group, they are all chess pieces. It's just that they think they're chess players. We still give them the money to make trouble. If you are willing to invest, you can ask for money. If you want to make a name for yourself, you can also be a legendary warrior who was pushed out by us. No less than 20 people. A young talent like you, with a good mind, can analyze complex things so quickly. I think it's king food. ”

Ponuk said, "Are you from the Arcane Federation?" and the other party smiled mysteriously: "My high climber is a worker." Then he added, "I am optimistic about you, young man." "Older legendary martial artists, who either have a backstage or connections, how could they come here to make trouble for some money? Only those young martial artists who are out and about will get involved in this kind of thing. This kind of character is not too much, and less is not less. Every five or six years there will be one or two. It's just that most of the people who don't know each other have been cleaned up. No matter how high the martial arts are, they can't fight the magic siege. Seeing that this brain is so good, he should live for a long time.

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in the warrior's eyes, which made the merchant feel frightened for a moment, and he was secretly preparing for the back road, when suddenly the warrior spoke: "How much does it cost to help you kill someone? What is the treatment of long-term cooperation?" The two actually chatted like this! Three minutes later, Bonook asked him to leave a fixed contact address, and then knocked him unconscious with a shock punch, and he went around the corner, where there was a gloomy snake king who listened to all the words just now. As he was about to speak, he was suddenly greeted by Bonouk giving him a thumbs up to signal him to keep quiet. He dragged him around the alley for a long time before he said, "There's something strange about that man! Although he was knocked unconscious, there is still a living creature in his body! I can't be sure what it is, so I leave first." You should understand what he said. ”

The gloomy-faced snake king hissed and stuck out his tongue and said, "You should have killed him!!, you want to move me~~~~" Bonuk next to him snorted coldly: "If you kill him, you won't be able to take revenge on the entire group." I want to slaughter you, and I'll keep it useful. Who expected the snake king to hesitate again: "That person~~~ Could it be that he was threatened and told some lies to trick you away?"

Ponuk snorted coldly again: "I shouted and shouted to kill just now, but now I can't bear it." Be ruthless when you shouldn't hate, and be greedy when you shouldn't. You're hard to serve. If you want to keep doing it, then do it. I'm going to report to the top: I don't wait for people who are looking for their own death!"

"Wait!" the Snake King raised his hand with difficulty to stop: "I understand~~~ It's just that I'm still lucky." "As long as you have enough political brains, you will understand: the best way to cut off the trade channel is to divide the entire snake country apart. Moreover, if the merchant guessed that Bonuk was the Serpent King's man, he should not have made up the lie just now, but something else. So what I just said is at least partly true.

However, the Serpent King had to make one final confirmation, and he immediately used a teleportation spell to contact a person, a person who recruited mercenaries for him: "That's right, I want to prepare some good things for these warriors in advance." So you give me the list first~~~~ Don't be so troublesome, just read it to me now, I remember. Soon he heard the name 'Elijah', and it was a great goblin!

Cutting off the interrogation, the Serpent King took a deep breath: "As long as you find out the situation of this 'Elijah', everything will be clear. "If it's a treacherous traitor, a mercenary who doesn't speak of faith, then it verifies the merchant's claim. Although mercenaries often do not speak of faith, some are particularly bad.

——————————————————————————————————————

"It's all clear. A report was placed on a large table in a simple tent, which contained a map of several mountainous and hilly areas suitable for the construction of reservoirs in the Dukedom of Van Doren and a preliminary report: "It was expected that three more could be built, but later it was found that the rainfall was not good, and there were problems with the structure of the mountain. It will leak or cause a landslide, so it has been canceled. These few pieces of investigation data almost killed us! It's too troublesome!"

This former hunter Rokko Kamiwei was very unsuitable for the role of exploration team and engineering surveyor, and nagged a lot in front of Tohezi, Midland and others. Dong Hezi waited patiently for him to say almost before he spoke: "In the future, if we build a reservoir, we will be able to irrigate more fields and produce more food." And when you make money, you can buy this grain to eat, and you don't have to hunt all over the ravine like before. That's the benefits of a change in role, and you have to look at them more. ”

Rokko Shenwei still didn't get used to it: "It's still quite troublesome, don't call me next time." Dong Hezi smiled: "Think about it when you get the benefits." In the past, although the cost of hunting was not troublesome, you also got less. You are more light than giving. No more than income. That's too biased. ”

The other party was still muttering, and Midland on the side raised his hand a little impatiently to interrupt him: "Tell us about the specific situation." He pointed to the drawings and began to explain. As he spoke, he suddenly added: "There is also a merchant who builds the road between the mountains in the same way that we built a wood-copper canal. This can charge a lot of tolls. He also drew a sketch. ”

A long wooden "road" that winds like a long bridge runs between the mountains or side by side. Or directly across the open valley between the mountains. Keep it all the way to a level. There are no more uphill and downhill and twisty 'eighteen bends', like an overhead highway that connects to the flatter hilly road in the distance. It is possible to significantly shorten the distance through the mountains.

The question is how much does it cost!! a lot of wood is required for the huge 'bridge piers', or the wood copper made of 'fine plastic wood'. Even if you use inferior quality wood copper. This amount is still too much! The input is an astronomical amount! So Dong Hezi shook his head: "There are still many places where wood copper is used, and a variety of hardwoods, rattan and other plants, alchemy agents, etc., are needed to make zuò wood copper, and the raw materials are limited, and there are many places that need to be used." This thing can only be done slowly. ”

Next to him, Midland asked, "Now that the border war is over, we don't need wood and copper on our side, and we need this for domestic construction." Although the price of wood and copper sold abroad is relatively high, I hope you will see our friendship and ask the Forest Mother God Church to reduce the price, my father and I are willing to build this road. ”

Dong Hezi pondered for a moment: "First, the war in the Snake Country is not over yet! For me, the best way to do this is to open up a commercial line to the Great Lakes in the east, so that the goods of the eight or nine kingdoms in the Great Lakes region can be transported here, and then transported from here to the northern territories. From here to the Great Lakes region, there is a dense area of snakemen with a distance of three hundred miles, which is not easy to deal with. I'm planning to let the Snake King come forward and occupy this snake-populated area, and then the two will join forces to open up a commercial line. There will be a lot of fighting during this time, and we will need to support the Serpent King with many cheap equipment made of wood and bronze. ”

"Second, if the construction of this kind of overhead highway only opens up the dukedom to the rest of the territory of Laziraka, then the trade volume is limited and it will not make enough profits. On the contrary, when the Serpent King occupies the area adjacent to the Great Lake to the east, our forces will be able to train together and reach the Great Lake. Then a new trade route from the Great Lakes to Ratziraka was formed. This situation is very open! So we should start our overhead highway after the Snake King occupies the eastern region. You will take over your father's class in the future, and this idea should not stay in the medieval 'territorial sovereignty' thinking, but look at things from a higher level. The territory is a raw material point, a processing point, and in addition to this, there are more important trade issues. This is the way of thinking of modern resource control."

Midland was nodding his head and saying, "I see. Then came the Snake King's communication technique: "Mr. Magellan, I am willing to cooperate with you! Don't pay attention to the other cheats again!" However, Dong Hezi asked him to continue to maintain cooperation with those foreign rich people: "Behind them is eighty percent of the Arcane Federation, this strong dragon is not something you want to kick away, if you completely reject them, they will think that you are hooking up with the Golden Demon Pattern again, and then they will give you a knife in the back, which is quite troublesome." Everyone should at least maintain a face-saving relationship, at most take less money or use money to do other things. Anyway, let them know that you didn't collude with the Golden Demon Pattern Society, you just started your own business. ”

The snake king also agreed, and then sent another message: "I want to do my best to break through the royal capital and slaughter those sons of bitches." What conditions do you need?" These words suddenly made Dong Hezi only roll his eyes: "This kind of idea of not understanding the situation, let's not discuss it." I don't want to waste time with people like Milo Schevi Č!"

The Snake King didn't quite understand: "You should know that revenge is my greatest wish now!" and Dong Hezi rolled his eyes again: "Keep the Dead Rav intact." It was also the wish of Milo Schevi Č. But please, think about it – why did they tear you down?!How can you avoid the worst?"

Poor Milo Shevy Chi probably didn't think this question through, perhaps he knew: Omi was going to demolish them because the Balkan Peninsula was located in the triangle of the Mediterranean, the Black Sea, and the Red Sea, and was the main artery for the flow of resources from Europe, Asia and Africa. Xi La is a knife edge against the main artery, and the wind is a knife against Xi La's back, and it is also a knife against the back of southern Europe.

When Soviet Russia was strong, it controlled southern Europe, so the British and German laws continued to support a certain believer disguised as a social fighter to control the wind and use it as a knife against the back of southern Europe. To be the watchdog of Shikoku under the slogan 'Don't want this, don't want that'. But after the fall of Soviet Russia. As an Omi's watchdog, it is no longer useful to prevent the Soviet Union and Russia from moving south to control the main artery. Britain, the United States, Germany, and France will not allow a strong and united country to threaten the arteries of resource exchange and the plains of southern Europe. So it's going to crack it!

But the problem is that his coping strategy is hard and stupid! You don't even have a single reinforcement, but you have to swallow the whole wave and black. This place was first deliberately stirred into a muddy water by a certain sect and disciple Tie Tie who disguised himself as a fighter, and then it was continuously nailed by Britain, the United States, Germany and France. You're going to crack it all down now. Isn't that stupid? The real toughness should be to figure out one's future position -- the big nail that cannot be pulled away next to the arteries and Central Europe after the rise of the Slavs (Russian-Maoists) in the future.

With this position clear, then the correct tough way should be - so the goal cannot be 'occupy Poland and the Black Field'. Rather, the goal should be to 'drive out the alien infidels of important areas, replace them with the Slavs, and unite the Slavic mountains and the coast'. Completely change the 'embedded Min Group Community' !! forcibly move some of the Pagan and foreign races in Poland and Heihei and the coastal and Montenegrin areas to the land of the Croats and Mu in the northwest, so that there is only one united people in the core area! In particular, it is necessary to maintain the coastal areas! With sufficient access to the sea, only in the future can the Slavs be qualified to insert the main artery of resources into the wall, so that the Slavs can have a greater voice and resource distribution power in the world!

It is necessary to complete the compulsory expulsion measures within three months to six months, replace the Slavs from other places with the population, and then quickly break the ground with the Croats and Muslims! In the border areas, use mountains, rivers, and cities to build a large-depth defense system, and in the coastal areas, small submarines and suicide speedboats like the Golden Sun will be deployed. Whoever moves Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will make the major arteries bleed!

As for the bird places like Ko So@wo, don't you want to come? Actually, Lao Tzu doesn't want you to come over! Just build a separation belt to separate these guys, an inland bird place can't threaten the Slavs' outlet to the sea anyway, and you want to make trouble in your own country! Lao Tzu doesn't want you to come here at all!

Although it is "incomplete" and the Bosnia and Herzegovina region will definitely have to be cut out, it retains the core and the key points of the sea outlet, and purge the internal alien paganism. Although Britain, the United States, Germany and France will still find ways to toss and block the Slavs' access to the sea, the difficulty will increase exponentially in the Slavic region opposite, not to mention the threat of suicide speedboats and small submarines, and there is still a silver lining to the situation.

On the other hand, to vainly attempt to annex the entire region of Bosnia and Herzegovina in order to 'maintain integrity' is to roast oneself on a steamer! With treacherous and vicious alien paganism inside and four evil wolves outside, how can there be any chance of victory? If China is so stupid in the South China Sea, instead of filling in reefs and building islands, it will entangle those small islands and reefs with Vietnam every day, and will kill them again and again in order to 'maintain integrity,' and how long will this last? Even if they occupy them, how much benefit will they have? Instead, it is better to put aside the minor islands and reefs and let them go. Spend real energy on reef reclamation. Firmly occupy these key places that should be occupied, choke the main arteries of shipping, and see who dares to mess around!

"So the right thing to do is to discard the royal capital, because it is a place where contradictions are concentrated!It will roast itself on a steamer!" Dong Hezi sternly admonished the snake king: "You should look for a better place to stand, this place is the northern part of the snake country, with the big lake on the left and the area we occupy on the right. You can continue to work on your trade statehood plan, and you can get our support. ”

The Serpent King was still thinking about his hatred: "What about my hatred? What's the benefit? Take a long-term view, if you don't have a chance to clean them up now, won't you have a chance in the future? Don't forget, the Arcane Federation does not allow a strong leadership in the Snake Country, and they will let those power grabbers who stay in the royal capital fall in love and kill each other! And you stay on the fringes of the country, put on the appearance that you want to divide the country, and then collude with the Arcane Federation to rectify them, and sooner or later you will have a chance to kill them!"

The Serpent King was suspicious of the Arcane Federation: "I have already rejected their people, and I want to go back to cooperate with them? But Dong Hezi was confident: "If you take refuge in a big backer." For example, the Church of the Mother Goddess of the Forest. They won't do anything to you. Everyone is a businessman who comes out to mix, and interests are the most important thing. There is no qualification to do great things at all. ”

After some persuasion. The Serpent King finally agreed. Then there was a discussion with Midland about the exclusive purchase of mercenaries. And Dong Hezi took people to see a batch of magic wands - this is the magic produced in those 'gas element fusion towers' in the Duke of Van Doren's domain. It simulates the effect of 'Flying Feather Arrows', which makes the arrows float and cancels out air interference.

The real yàn effect in the shooting range is good, and the arrows shot out are like sharp rays. Shoot straight out more than 200 meters away. When equipped with a powerful crossbow or ballista, it can deal a lot of damage to medium and long-range targets, especially armored targets. Although it can't do the automatic tracking effect of 'Eagle Arrow', it can be mass-produced using fusion towers, and it can be used for militia defense.

But what Dong Hezi is most concerned about is the research progress of 'long-term floating': "Although the things that kill people are useful, they can't really change society, and they still need to be productive technology." This 'levitation technique' can cut the maximum buoyancy in half, and it can only float three or four hundred pounds, but the time must be calculated in hours, no more than a third-order spell, and it can be mass-produced cheaply with the 'gas element fusion tower'. At that time, every Rokko jibei or flyer can pull a floating sled cart and transport things in the air. It is conducive to short- and medium-distance transportation. ”

But the feedback from the technicians was a little helpless: "Half an hour at most." To sustain more than 1 hour, the buoyancy must be reduced to 200 pounds, which is too low. Dong Hezi muttered: "The 'Gas Element Fusion Tower' can only rely on gas elements as materials, and its ability to change may be lower. I'm going to go back and renovate and make it a 'four-element fusion tower'. ”

The next day, he went back with a vote for the Rokko Guardian and the Forest Priest. After two days of busy work in the magnificent magic tower with a height of more than ten floors, everyone drew a transformation plan - to erect more than 20 heavy magic stone tablets with three stories high at the foot of the mountain to activate the energy of the earth element, to plant large trees on the mountainside and the peaks on the slope side as energy converters, and to make zuò pools in several locations, etc., the amount of work is relatively large, and there is no guarantee of effectiveness.

Fortunately, the Duke of Van Doren was more cooperative, and let people organize the start of work overnight. And Dong Hezi also threw himself into this matter, and for a small 'levitation technique', the tea was not fragrant, and even some of the Rokko Shenwei felt that it was too much: "Why do you have to go to such trouble to pull an 'air sled'? Brothers, every time they pull more people, don't they just bring more things on their bodies?"

Dong Hezi shook his head: "The crowd tactic is only a temporary effect, and in the long run, it cannot replace technological progress." If the flotation technique can be mass-produced in small quantities on an hourly basis, it can have a great impact on the world's short- and medium-distance transportation, and such technological progress can add up to a lot, and even gradually change the pattern of various forces in society. This is even more important than mere war progress. For example, the cultivation of the Rokko Divine Guard is now forcibly promoted by the Forest Mother God Church, and even the expenses are provided by the church. Many people don't have the opportunity to learn even if they want to. Not to mention, other churches will prevent people in their jurisdictions from learning the skills of the Rokko Guardian. But if only Rokko Jibei could pull a sled cart and gallop through the air, shuttling between villages and towns for rapid transportation, he could feed himself and make a good living. If you think about it, how attractive this is for low- and middle-class families. Their desire to join the Forest Church will be even stronger. And the idea of the Forest Church is also easier to promote. The Church will also be more powerful! It is more effective to put ideas into practice than to force them!"
