LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 52 Ju Ming has a bold idea!
"Currently, the friction between the Yang Kingdom and the Huang Kingdom is getting more and more serious. As a city at the junction of the two countries, Newland City has always been inconsistent and wavering. Before, the two countries had no idea of fighting, and they were still in peace. , now as the friction escalates, they have begun to force Newland City to determine its position."
"I think this is an opportunity."
"Oh?" Zhang Lu looked at him with interest. He knew what Zhu Ming wanted to say. He wanted to persuade Zhang Lu to take the opportunity to take Newland City, but the current Immortal Realm is not strong and cannot support the battle with Huang Guo or Yang Guo. We can go to war with any country in the country, let alone capture a city from these two countries.
"Lord, look." Ju Ming laid the map of the castle on the table, pointed at a certain place on the map and said, "This place is the key point!"
Zhang Lu looked at a place called Chonglin City that appeared on the map. This place was located behind Newland City.
"I have asked Master Tu Xingsun to go to these two cities to inquire about news in the past few days, and I have made a major discovery."
"This Chonglin City is currently a city of the Sheep Kingdom, but now the whole city is spreading the news that the Huang Kingdom is about to attack Chonglin City. This city is a big food city of the Sheep Kingdom. It has fertile land, rich production, and is at a strategic transportation location. Dao, the Sheep Kingdom will definitely not give up."
"And Newland City is a lawless zone without national jurisdiction. As long as we take the opportunity to capture Newland City while the two countries are fighting for the Second City, neither the Sheep Kingdom nor the Yellow Kingdom will be able to deal with us for the time being."
"As long as during this period of time, we can build a basic defense in Newland City, and then form an alliance with one of the countries and promise benefits, then our territory can suddenly have a county seat, and select the best among them to turn into Yellow Turban warriors to form an army. Thus begins the first step in our territory’s struggle for the world!”
Fight for the world!
To be precise, it is the world in this area. This is a step that all lords must take. But the problem is that when other lords don’t even dare to think about fighting for the world, Ju Ming has actually formulated a preliminary strategy. .
If other lords knew about it, they would really be shocked. You must know that to defeat even a county requires at least level five or more level four combat effectiveness.
The administrative units of human cities in this world are villages at the lowest level, and then counties. County towns are under the jurisdiction of county towns, and county towns are under the jurisdiction of state capitals. For example, Liu Fan and Kong Xin, who are developing relatively quickly, should be preparing to capture them now. The villages protected by the state are used to enhance the strength. Although the villages are not within the territory after being defeated and do not have the various bonuses of the territory, they may harvest a large amount of resources and population.
Zhang Lu, on the other hand, directly targeted the county seat!
This is due to Tu Xingsun's earth-moving skills. When he travels underground, even professionals who are more advanced than him cannot detect him, and he has obtained a lot of precious information. In a war, intelligence is crucial!
"Then how do we deal with Newland City's army? They have a deal with the dwarves. If we want to capture it and build basic defenses or even city walls, the dwarves will definitely not agree. This means that Newland City can cut them off at any time. Trade routes to keep them out of the mountains.”
Ju Ming pointed to the location of the Fairyland on the map and said: "Because the dwarves' trade route comes from this mountain pass in the Fairyland! Whether they go through the Fairyland or the ancient castle, they have been blocked by us. We Whether they capture Newland City or not has already affected their trade routes!"
"The next dwarf caravan will arrive in a month. It will depend on the lord's attitude then." Ju Ming handed over to Zhang Lu and was waiting for Zhang Lu's response.
Zhang Lu tapped his fingers on the table, squinting and thinking for a moment. The conflict with the dwarves was bound to happen sooner or later. If they really went to the Immortal Realm in a month, then he might not really need to use the defensive buildings in the territory. Afraid, "Then negotiate with the dwarf caravan first. If they agree to pay tolls, we will let them go to do business. After all, our territory also needs foreign trade. If they don't agree, then we will fight!"
Since those dwarves were afraid of Newland City building a wall, and the original condition for driving away the vampires was that they were not allowed to build a wall, it meant that they would not be too strong, let alone conquer the Fairyland in a month's time.
"As for the army in Newland City, there are two level four professionals in Newland City. One is the city lord of Newland City, and the other is Yun Guang who controls the underground industry. We can win the support of Yun Guang!"
"Yun Guang was the one who strongly advocated building the city wall at the beginning, so he had disagreements with the successive city lords. However, there is a popular saying in Newland City, the flowing city lord, the iron boss Yun, which means that Yun Guang has always been able to sit firmly. As the leader of the underground trade, this is his base, and once something happens to Newland City, he will be done with it."
"And his biggest business is to import various weapons and equipment from the Sheep Kingdom and export them to the Huang Kingdom. This has a competitive relationship with the dwarf caravans, so as long as we win his support, it is no problem to win Newland City. , Newland City’s army has only a few thousand standing troops, and they are basically ordinary people, and it takes time for the militiamen outside it to turn into combat effectiveness, and they will be completely too late in a surprise attack.”
Zhang Lu felt that what Ju Ming said was indeed feasible and nodded, "Pay more attention to the situation in the two countries and report immediately if they start a war!"
"Yes!" Zhu Ming understood what Zhang Lu meant. He also knew that Zhang Lu was definitely not the kind of lord who was timid and content with the status quo, so he came up with this bold idea!
Although the idea is bold, it is very feasible and he is very sure that it will succeed!
"Lord!" At this time, Tu Xingsun's voice sounded outside the room.
"Come in." Zhang Lu glanced at Zhu Ming and saw that he had nothing else to report, and asked Tu Xingsun to come in.
"Lord, all the young men in that village have been brought here. Their homes have been invaded by monsters and they have nowhere to go. They have agreed to join our territory. However, after being attacked by the beasts, only twenty-nine people were left. They’re all men.”
"Twenty-nine people. Previously we converted twenty-two qualified members into Yellow Turban Warriors. With these twenty-nine people, we can be considered a not weak team."
One third-level fairy boy, sixteen second-level Taoist boys, and fifty-one first-level yellow scarf warriors. This will be a power that other lords can't even imagine. Other lords simply can't support so many professionals!
The armor weapon Zhang Lu can be made from a lot of materials decomposed from monsters. Food consumption is a problem. Taoist boys do not need to consume food, but Yellow Turban warriors do, and the consumption is quite large. The fairyland, which originally had a very abundant food production, If we have to supply so many Yellow Turban warriors, it will be a bit tight, but it will barely become a negative number.
As long as they can survive the attack on New Blue City, with the resources of a county, it is enough to raise these yellow scarf warriors, and they can even convert more troops.
"Come on, take me to see it!"
