Volume 13 Peace Storm Chapter 940 Playing with Fate Again
The Cangwu Empire is at war, and this war is led by Qin Shangyang, but his eyes are not on the Cangwu Empire.
In front of the huge military map, Qin Shangyang's gaze was firmly fixed on the place where he was encircled. It is the northern part of the Tianfeng Continent, and the climate is changeable all year round, and at the coldest time, it reaches the point of splashing water into ice. That land has a name, the Chihe Empire.
Yes, at that time was Qin Shangyang's real goal, the Cangwu Empire was just a front for him, what he wanted to take was not the Cangwu Empire, but the Chihe Empire. Because there, there is fine fine iron, and fine iron is a necessary material for making guns.
After looking at it for a long time, Qin Shangyang's gaze skimmed down to Langtian City, where he also drew a big red circle.
"Hu Wei, if you want to dominate the Heavenly Wind Continent, is it that easy?"
"Hu Wei, Wu Xuewen, good news, we just won a battle, victory, we, uh, where did Hu Wei go?"
Liang Chubby was happy with Zhongtian, only to find that Yaya was the only one sitting there in the room with a pouting mouth.
"It's gone. Yaya snorted unhappily. Just now, Hu Wei tricked her into reading information here,
And in the blink of an eye, he couldn't find anyone anymore. Yaya found Wu Xuewen and learned that Hu Wei had secretly left the Cangwu Empire and only left her a letter.
"Gone?" Liang Fat was stunned for a while before he jumped up and asked, "What about Wu Xuewen, he is also gone?"
Maragobi, I haven't heard of this house being haunted?
"What are you looking for me for?" Wu Xuewen's voice came from the door. He and Hu Wei have already had a division of labor, Hu Wei can go, but he must stay here.
Seeing that Wu Xuewen was still there, Liang Chubby felt a lot more relieved. If even Wu Xuewen was gone, he wouldn't know what to do. Although Yaya is very smart, she is too small to be reliable.
"Where is Hu You?" Although Liang Fatpang guessed that Hu Wei must have something to do, he couldn't help but ask. Compared with Wu Xuewen, he has to trust Hu Wei more.
Wu Xuewen replied: "Hu Wei has something to do for a while, and the affairs here will be discussed by the three of Lou from today onwards." ”
"Young marshal, the ship is ready. Jebel waited at the port early, and when he saw Hu Wei coming, he hurriedly greeted him.
"You've already arrived?" Hu Wei asked casually when he saw that Jebel didn't look like he had just arrived.
Jebel replied: "I'm afraid that the situation will change, I came here three days in advance." ”
Worry nodded, didn't say anything more, and motioned for Tetsube to get on the boat.
The ship was not big, it was just an ordinary merchant ship, and there were eight boatmen except for Hu Wei. They were all dressed up as Legionnaires, and when it came to loyalty, there was absolutely no problem.
"Young Marshal, do you want to rest first?" Zhebei led Hu Wei into the room that had been arranged in advance.
Hu Wei glanced at the layout of the room, and the plain and elegant sè tone was exactly the style he liked. Jebel has followed him for more than ten years, and he likes him very clearly. Although the boat will not sit for too long, it is still very good to have a comfortable environment.
"I'd love to get a good night's sleep on him, but I'd better hear the news first. You give me the situation first"
"Yes, young marshal. Jebe answered, took out a record book, and said, "After receiving the order from the young marshal, I immediately sent a large number of spies. The situation was as the young marshal expected, Qin Shangyang's purpose was indeed not the Cangwu Empire. Ten days ago, we discovered that Qin Shangyang had secretly mobilized 300,000 troops to the north, and the target was probably Emperor Chihehu. ”
"Well, Zhu Daneng and Harrison have already left. ”
"They were already on the road seven days ago. ”
"It's good, everyone has something to do, and we can't be idle. Time is running out, and we need to hurry. ”
The passenger ship traveled about thirty nautical miles, and then more than twenty passenger ships of the same size1 converged and continued on their way. Ordinary people couldn't see any difference between these ordinary merchant ships, and they knew that these ships were all filled with the most elite warriors of the Immortal Bird Legion. The soldiers of the 3,000 Guards Battalion, all of whom had been reequipped with the latest guns at this time, were ready for battle.
Where are they going?
Except for a few high-ranking generals of the Immortal Bird Legion, no one had any worries about the purpose of this time.
On a wave day, by the Kyushu River, the autumn leaves are waiting anxiously, looking up at the river from time to time. ...,
"Eldest sister, don't be in such a hurry, the sixth sister's boat will arrive later, we are early. Huang Jinfeng couldn't help but laugh. It's the first time she's seen Momiji so anxious.
"It's better to come early, let's be together early. The sixth sister is a boat, and the relationship is heavy, and I will never let any accidents happen to them. You go and see if shì wei is enough, not enough to transfer some more. ”
"Big sister, it's enough. The Sixth Sister's ship is now under the protection of our warship, and there will be no problems. Huang Jinfeng comforted.
Seriously, she's a little nervous, too. This time, Chu Zhu and Weiwei not only learned the gun technology of the Three Kingdoms, but also brought back a large number of materials and technicians from more than a dozen Three Civilizations with the ship. These are very important to the Immortal Bird Legion, and even to the entire Heavenly Wind Continent, but there must be no mistakes.
Now, the entire Immortal Bird Legion is up and down, and even Yaya is working hard. If they have problems connecting with each other, then how can they have a face to worry about.
"Here, big sister, the ship is coming. ”
Chigoko waited, the ship they were waiting for finally arrived. The entire Langtian Port has been closed to the river. There are only five warships carrying the information of Chu Zhu, Weiwei and related personnel,
Drive slowly.
Chu Zhu was the first to jump off the boat: "Eldest sister, fourth sister, are you all okay?"
Momiji smiled: "This should be what we asked you, this time, it's really hard for you." ”
"It's not hard, I'm nothing, the main thing is still Weiwei. Chu Zhu said as he looked through the crowd.
Hongye naturally knew what Chu Zhu was looking for, and explained: "Yaya went to the Cangwu Empire with Xianggong. ”
On Zhu's face, a disappointed look flashed, and a smile appeared again, and said, "Yaya has really grown up, and she can already help Xianggong do things." ”
Momiji smiled: "Yaya has grown up, and we are also old." Alas, let's not talk about this, tell me about the harvest of this trip. ”
......... ,......... ,......... ,......... ,......... ,......... ,... ,
"Young Marshal, we're almost there. "Jebel woke up Hu Wei.
"Oh, I feel like I'm asleep, really. Hu Wei took the towel and wiped his face, and looked out the window. What appeared in front of Hu Wei was a small island, and from a distance, there was nothing special about it, but it was Hu Wei's purpose this time.
This island does not have a name with zero in the Qin family, and it took a lot of effort to find this place. Now is the time to turn intelligence into gains.
Why did Hu Wei take this island?
The reason is very simple, because there is sulfur here, which is information obtained from Zhu Yuanwu. It was not Zhu Yuanwu who personally gave it to Hu Wei, it was Hu Wei who stole it.
Anyone who knows how to know igniters knows that the formula for gunpowder is sulfur, fire and charcoal. Fire nitrate can be obtained from sunken adobe bricks, while charcoal can be made from its own coal. The only thing that must be natural is sulfur. Hu Wei couldn't make gunpowder by himself before because there was no such thing as sulfur in the Heavenly Wind Continent. Now that I finally got the news, of course Hu Wei wants to take this Iwo Jima.
Iwo Jima is the new name Hu Wei gave to the island, and it was the traditional territory of the Qin family. Qin Shangyang didn't know the formula of gunpowder, but this didn't mean that the island's defenses would be weak. In fact, this is a secret base of the Qin family overseas, and many of the Qin family's secrets are hidden in this place, and an elite force of 50,000 people is stationed in peacetime. If it weren't for the fact that there is sulfur here, I would definitely not take this place lightly.
The topographic map of Iwo Jima, Hu Wei had already obtained it a month ago, and the reason why he had endured it without action was to wait for the best opportunity. Now that Qin Shangyang is sending troops on both sides, fighting the Cangwu Empire in the south and the Hechi Empire in the north, he must have no intention of caring about him, which is the best opportunity for Hu Wei.
"The topography of Iwo Jima is very complicated, and so far we don't know what exactly is laid out on it. Be careful in everything!" Hu Wei stressed again.
Jebel replied, "Yes, young marshal, I will explain it again." Can we storm as originally planned?"
Worry nodded, there was only one exit to Iwo Jima, and the remaining three sides were all cliffs, and there was no other way than to storm it. Hu Wei's plan was also to prepare for a strong attack. ...,
"Wait a minute. Just as Jebe was about to give the order to attack, Hu Wei stopped Jebel again.
"Young marshal?" Jebel looked at Hu Wei strangely, why has this already reached the ground, and has there been any change?
Hu Wei frowned and said, "What's that?"
In the distance, the shadow of a large ship faintly appeared. Although I can't see it very clearly, I can still be sure that it is a warship.
This sudden warship was not good news for Hu Wei.
"Why are there warships?" muttered Hu Wei. Could it be that the wind is not tight, and Qin Shangyang noticed something?
"Young marshal, what should we do now?" Seeing that the warship was getting clearer and clearer, Jebel was a little anxious. Their ships were relatively small, and they were so far away that they could not be seen by the warships during the battle. If this is closer, there will be no way to hide anymore.
"What kind of forces do you think this warship should belong to?" A bold plan quickly formed in Hu Wei's mind.
Jebe looked at the boat that looked like a small hill and thought for a while, "With the shipbuilding technology of the Tianfeng Continent, it is impossible to build such a big ship. It should belong to the Three Kingdoms of Civilizations. ”
Hu Wei nodded and said, "That's right, it's not something that the Heavenly Wind Continent should have, if I guess correctly, it should belong to the Radish Head Empire." ”
Jebel said: "Qin Shangyang is now cooperating with the Radish Head Empire, and there are warships of the Radish Head Empire on the territory of the Qin family, which is not surprising, but why did this warship appear at this time, is it because of us?"
Hu Wei replied: "Not many people know about our plan this time, I believe that even if we leak out, it won't take so long enough for Qin Shangyang to know and notify the Luo Pingtou Empire to help." Besides, with Qin Shangyang's pride, he wouldn't let the Radish Head Empire help him defend the island. ”
"The only purpose for this ship to appear here should be similar to ours!" Hu Wei finally gave an answer.
"You mean they're here to attack Iwo Jima, too?"
Jebe's guess made Hu Wei smile, Jebel has no talent in military affairs, so it is reasonable to guess like this. If this matter is changed to Yaya here, I shouldn't guess so.
Now that the Radish Head Empire has reached a cooperative relationship with Qin Shangyang, what reason do they have to fight Qin Shangyang again.
The purpose of Hu Wei's mouth is the same, that is, the ship of the Radish Head Empire, which is likely to come to Iwo Jima to pull brimstone back.
After so many years of rapid development of the three civilizations, all kinds of resources have been exhausted, and sulfur as a strategic material must be consumed very much, and the Radish Head Empire is the country with the least resources among the three major civilizations. The reason why they started a war against the Tianfeng Continent was precisely because they wanted the resources of the Tianfeng Continent.
Since Zhu Yuanwu knew about the sulfur on Iwo Jima, the possibility that the Radish Head Empire knew about it was also very high. They didn't come here before to pull maybe there are many other reasons. Now that they are cooperating with Qin Shangyang, there are no longer many reasons for trouble. Based on these judgments, Hu Wei basically guessed the purpose of the ship.
Based on this consideration, Hu Wei decided to make a temporary plan that must change. The cost of storming Iwo Jima was too great, and now that there were other ways in front of Hu Wei, of course he would not choose the way to force it. There are wise men who use their brains.
Hu Wei made a decision in his heart, and immediately ordered that except for the boat he was sitting on, the other boats should leave here immediately, find another place to hide, and wait for the next order.
The soldiers of the Guards Battalion didn't understand why Hu Wei had changed his mind on the spur of the moment, but that wasn't something they needed to think about. After receiving the order, he immediately followed the order, and in less than five minutes, only the merchant ship sitting on the sea was left alone.
Hu Wei glanced around, took a deep breath, and said, "Okay, let's start." ”
Jebe's heart skipped a few beats, and he nodded solemnly. Hu Wei's plan this time is very dangerous, if he is not careful, he will lose his life before the plan is implemented. To be on the safe side, she had to watch it herself.
......... ,......... ,......... ,......... ,......... ,......... ,... ,
The ship that Hu Wei was preparing to use was indeed from the Radish Head Empire, and its name was Captain Ado Maru, who was thirty years old and one year old in Chinese New Year's Eve. At this time, Tane Kuda was observing the course from the bow of the ship when he suddenly noticed a merchant ship heading towards them on the sea. ...,
"My lord, a thousand meters ahead, I found a merchant ship looking for a distress signal. At the same time, the soldier reported the discovery to Tane Kazuo Kuta.
"Well, I've seen that. Why are there merchant ships in this area? Send a signal to them to believe it. "Jiutian planted a man.
The soldiers took the order, and after a while they came back to report that the merchant ship had not given any signal to order, and that the ship was still coming towards them without slowing down.
"My lord, do you want to sink them with fire?"
"Wait a minute. Kuda Tane thought about it secretly. The other side is a merchant ship, with no weapons and a small displacement, so it is not a threat to their warship. Sinking is no good for them, and if it is a captive, it is different. Merchant ships, there must be something valuable, and even if you don't have one, it's good to get a few huā girls to play with. After going to sea for so long, it's not a way to always be a tyrannical chrysanthemum.
The more Kuda Tanichi thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, so he decided to let the boat come over. He doesn't know it now, it is precisely because of his momentary greed that throwing away a small life does not count, and it also changes the pattern of the whole world.
"Young Marshal, do we really want to run into it like this?" As the two boats drew closer, sweat was already on her forehead.
"Crash it, we only have a chance if it is broken. Hu Wei said calmly. Reluctant that the child can't trap the wolf, if this boat is not abandoned, he will have no reason to get on other people's boats.
If this were to be replaced by other crew members, they would definitely not listen to such bullshit orders as Hu Wei. Isn't hitting a ship on the sea an act of looking for death?
However, for the soldiers of the Guards Battalion, Hu Wei's order was a qiē. Not to mention hitting the ship, if you want them to jump into the sea immediately, they will not have the slightest hesitation.
The soldiers disguised as the crew, calibrated the course, as if in battle, aimed at the Addo Maru and pounced......
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, Hu Wei's boat was shattered, and he couldn't even have a little bit left. Kuda Chong Kazuo saw Hu Yu's boat crashing into him, and he was not in a hurry to order a U-turn. There are too many Ado Marus, and there is no space or time to do these actions with Ben.
As soon as the people who were worried about this ship fell into the sea, they immediately waved their hands and shouted for help. Because the ship had been fully prepared before the collision, except for one soldier who was unfortunately injured, most of the others were fine.
"My lord, should we save them? The soldier asked Kuda to plant a man.
Kuda Tanichi will also hesitate. Originally, he wanted to borrow this merchant ship to get some outside water.
Now that the ships have been smashed into powder, there is nothing.
He has no interest in saving people.
"Leave them alone, let them die. "Kuda Tane Kazuo made a decision.
"Yes, sir. But my lord, just now I was in the sea, and it seemed to be towards a woman,
Looks also tǐng beautiful. "The soldier knew what Kuda was and told him what he had discovered.
"There are women?" Kuda Tanichi's eyes lit up and scolded: "Why didn't you have it early!"
The woman was wearing a man's clothes, and Lou didn't pay attention at first. ”
"Don't talk so much, go get people up. ”
"Is it to save only that woman, or to save it all. ”
"Let's talk about it all when I save it, it's not good, there are other women!"!.
