How can I allow others to sleep soundly beside my bed?
This place is so close to the Moses Empire, they certainly won't let it go easily, nor will they tolerate it falling into the hands of the Great Liang Empire.
In this situation, the enemy will likely arrive here very soon, or perhaps they are already on their way.
Because this place is too close to the other side's homeland, if the Great Liang Empire were to launch an attack on the Moses Empire from here, it would be completely unacceptable to the other side.
This location not only allows for immediate attacks on the enemy's homeland but also provides effective resupply, which inadvertently strengthens the Great Liang Empire's power—something the enemy clearly will not tolerate.
To prevent a sneak attack, he immediately launched the hot air balloon into the sky, observing the surrounding area from several points around the continent.
Any approach of the enemy, or any slight movement, would not escape the surveillance of the Great Liang Empire.
Upon witnessing this scene, the primitive savages went completely mad.
"My God, this is a true god descended to earth! We can actually fly!"
"We're doomed. We actually attacked a god. We're dead this time."
"Those damned bastards, they angered the gods, and the most terrible punishment they have ever given us is the greatest punishment."
"God, please forgive our sins; we were deceived too."
These savages went completely mad, kneeling on the ground and frantically kowtowing and bowing. To them, the Great Liang Empire was their god, a god who could ascend to heaven and descend to the earth, a great demon god who killed without hesitation.
If we cannot ask God for forgiveness, then we will all die without a burial place.
Seeing this, a hint of disdain flashed in Lü Bu's eyes, and he sneered, "I said before that we should not kill these savages unless absolutely necessary, but these people should not be included."
A person who eats his own people is clearly a monster who hasn't fully developed; such a person deserves to die.
"Get them to work, and if they dare not work hard, kill them all."
They're just a bunch of idiots. To make them people of the Great Liang would be an insult to the Great Liang Empire.
Forehead!
The deputy general paused for a moment upon hearing this, then laughed and said, "Of course, no problem. Are savages considered human? Of course not."
The next moment, he sent men to drive all these savages together. From now on, these people would be the main labor force for building the base and developing this place.
As for whether they live or die in the end, that depends on their own fate; one can't blame the Great Liang for being ruthless.
After all, they don't have human thinking, so they can only be considered wild beasts. Wild beasts don't need pity; they just need to be educated.
At that moment, the people who had gone out with Xiao Yefu returned.
"General, we have discovered the mines and have sent people to take over. However, the remaining tasks require your assistance in arranging manpower, as their current mining methods are far too crude," the man said in a deep voice.
Lü Bu nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "Just report this matter, and society will have specialists to help handle it. We only need to complete this sea base and build a military base, that will be enough."
Moreover, we cannot stay here for long; we must go to support Guan Yu and annihilate the enemy's homeland."
Since the intention is to launch an attack, it's impossible to target only colonies. Now that we've approached their homeland, we naturally need to give them a heads-up, otherwise they might really think they can do whatever they want.
However, the most urgent task is to defeat all the enemy's reinforcements in the ocean before attacking their homeland.
"Understood!"
The latter nodded and immediately got to work.
This military base is extremely important. In the future, when people remain here, only a small number of people will be needed to defend the base.
In this way, the army will have no worries about its rear and can directly attack the enemy's homeland, which will not delay things and is the best choice.
At that moment, a large army was indeed slowly approaching this direction on the ocean.
They were reinforcements from the Moses Empire, numbering nearly 200,000. Such a large force naturally commanded respect, as if it had stirred up much of the ocean.
Despite commanding an army of 200,000, Alute, as the leader, showed no sign of relaxation; instead, his face was filled with solemnity.
This puzzled his adjutant, who couldn't help but ask, "General, we are virtually invincible here. We are only facing some challengers. Why are you so worried?"
In this vast ocean, there has never been a shortage of challengers. The empire had faced countless attacks in the past, but in the end, the Moses Empire always emerged victorious. Therefore, in his mind, this time would be no different.
Alute shook his head and said in a deep voice, "This time is different from the past. This attack on us also comes from a single operation, possibly even from a country that has unified the entire continent. Once they make a move, it will certainly not be a small-scale operation. Therefore, whether our 200,000 men can defeat them is still a question."
He wasn't the kind of person who was All Under Heaven arrogant, nor did he consider himself invincible.
Moreover, he had also learned that the Great Liang Empire was not weak; it had even annihilated the Abide Family's 300,000-strong army at sea, demonstrating its formidable strength.
This is why he was so cautious along the way, constantly observing his surroundings, because he couldn't worry about the fate of the Abide Family.
Hearing his words, the deputy frowned slightly and said, "I didn't expect the enemy to be so strong this time. But logically speaking, the Great Liang Empire seems to be quite far away from us, so there shouldn't be too many people coming."
He had heard of the Great Liang Empire, which was separated from his own Moses Empire by an ocean. How could they possibly send their entire army over? That was impossible.
Unless the other side is launching a full-scale attack, they wouldn't be this crazy.
At that moment, Alute's gaze sharpened as he looked at the sea surface where a black dot was slowly approaching.
"What is that?" Alute immediately became alert and asked in a deep voice.
Everyone's eyes were instantly locked in that direction, and sure enough, they saw a black dot. They all stared wide-eyed as they examined it closely.
After a long while, they finally saw their target clearly: a warship was coming towards them at an angle, and the flag on it was clearly that of the Moses Empire.
"What's going on? Could it be that we've encountered the enemy ahead? And he's the only one on the ship." Alute's expression changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice.
Logically speaking, it's impossible for there to be only one warship; clearly, he encountered the enemy and escaped alone.
