Come to think of it, if killing over 6,000 people would get you Zhou Yu and Lu Xun, then those two would be worthless.
Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh, muttering, " Huang Gai is not bad either. He is a fairly versatile individual and can make the navy on Sea Liang Island even stronger."
Moreover, he is not only good at training naval forces, but also possesses certain management and strategic skills.
The famous Red Cliffs of All Under Heaven Cliffs was actually initiated by Huang Gai, but Zhou Yu recognized his abilities, which led to the All Under Heaven -renowned Battle of Red Cliffs.
Now that Guan Yu has him and Guan Hai as his generals, Guan Yu can relax a lot.
"Centipede boat!"
His gaze fell on the centipede boat, and a strange glint flashed in his eyes.
This type of warship was notorious, but its advantages were also obvious: it moved swiftly on the water, with All Under Heaven speed, hence its other name, the Fast Crab Ship.
Besides its high speed, this thing also had the ability to break through and infiltrate, making it essentially the earliest pirate raiding ship.
The system has actually given it to me; it really is trying to solidify my image as a sea pirate. With this thing, I can better fulfill my role as a pirate.
If the previous rewards were quite good, then the last one is basically a divine artifact.
Great Ning Chart!
As the name suggests, it is a map of all the sea areas surrounding Great Ning, including the location of the surrounding islands, which makes it very significant.
This is the guiding light of the sea!
With nautical charts, finding islands in the ocean becomes much easier, making the " Ocean Plan " even simpler. Therefore, this thing is definitely a maritime marvel.
He took out the Great Ning Chart and went to the tactical sand table to compare it.
[ Sea Liang Island!]
[ Great Wilderness Island ]
Octopus Island
Turtle Mountain Island
These are the four islands occupied by Xiliang. Apart from Sea Liang Island, which has a real base and facilities, the rest only have a simple defense system, but it is enough for Xiliang to gain a foothold at sea.
On the sand table, the Xiliang flags were flying over these islands, making them appear incredibly mysterious amidst the encirclement of Great Ning!
Without a doubt, the existence of these islands will be a nightmare for Great Ning in the future.
This distance only requires an hour to reach Great Ning, and with the naval forces growing stronger, this situation is enough to make Li Anlan restless.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh and sighed, "Trying to make a living by fishing in the ocean? I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint my father-in-law this time. Who told you, father-in-law, to not care about your son-in-law!"
The Net organization has been infiltrating Great Ning, and now even the southern chieftains are filled with Net members. Li Anlan's wishful thinking naturally did not escape Lin Yi's notice.
This guy has a very clever plan. He's trying to make up for the losses in the war with the Northern Barbarians by fishing in the ocean, and he also wants to use this opportunity to train his troops so that they can deal with me in the future. He's really dreaming.
My attack has hit him where it hurts; I wonder if he can withstand it.
Moreover, with Guan Yu in the rear, the coastal areas of Great Ning will be even more unstable in the future, and will face harassment from Guan Yu at any time, or even direct attack.
Guan Yu's fighting prowess is considerable, and with the help of Gu Yong and Huang Gai, he will only become more formidable in the future. Li Anlan's days ahead are numbered!
Knock knock!
"My lord, several kings of the Western Regions are hosting a banquet for you at A Restaurant. They wish to discuss the future of the Western Regions with you," Wang Yue whispered outside the door.
Lin Yi was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Those guys are still here? They haven't left yet?"
"They've been loitering around Xiliang Commandery, apparently testing Xiliang's strength. It seems they've made a decision now," Wang Yue said with a smile, recalling the strange behavior of those guys.
These guys first tried to shake a concrete pillar, but the pillar was as solid as a rock.
Then, seeing several plumes of smoke, he trembled with fear.
Finally, they saw the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and the group immediately knelt down. They were even more ferocious than the Asura Army.
After several rounds, the kings became incredibly obedient, even lowering their voices considerably.
kindness!
Lin Yi was quite satisfied with these younger brothers.
Putting aside their loyalty, the key thing is that they have a good attitude and are willing to put aside their pride to please me. They would be a good subordinate in the Western Regions.
Moreover, A Restaurant is one's own territory; those kings of the Western Regions certainly know how to find a place to eat.
"In that case, let's go take a look. Anyway, it's our own territory, so we don't need to worry about them causing trouble!"
"Oh, and call the strategist too!" Lin Yi instructed with a smile.
Inside the restaurant, several kings from the Western Regions sat anxiously on stools. If the Prince of Xiliang did not come, then everything would be in vain.
Their banquet for Lin Yi today is actually a ploy to seek refuge with Xiliang and gain Xiliang protection.
However, the chances of success made them somewhat worried.
" Tu Xiu, you have the best relationship with the Prince of Xiliang now. Do you think the King will agree to protect us?" Meng Chihu asked somewhat impatiently after taking a sip of tea.
They had thought that after showing goodwill, the Prince of Xiliang would treat them well, but they never expected that the king would not take it seriously at all.
Although they gave me some things, that's not what they wanted.
Furthermore, their previous observations of Xiliang Commandery solidified their resolve to forge a good relationship with Xiliang.
That fortified city was so solid that even a hammer could not break it.
And those terrifying Tiger and Leopard Cavalry —they seemed like demons, capable of tearing their own country apart; their power was suffocating.
Tu Xiu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, " The Prince of Xiliang has been quite good to me, and I took the opportunity to express my willingness to join him, but he doesn't seem very enthusiastic."
That makes sense. With his strength, taking over my Green Leaf Kingdom would be as easy as taking candy from a baby!
I think this is related to the strategic direction of Xiliang. If I'm not mistaken, the Prince of Xiliang probably wants to eliminate the Northern Barbarians first, so he doesn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble!
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement; this reason seemed quite plausible.
"That makes sense. Our country is too small, so even the Prince of Xiliang looks down on us!" Meng Chihu nodded, somewhat bitterly.
He thought of the terrifying Asura Army, the frenzied rain of arrows, and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry he had seen earlier; it was said that this was only one of the seven legions of the Prince of Xiliang.
This glimpse into the power of the Prince of Xiliang is enough to show how easy it would be for him to conquer his own country.
They wouldn't even accept something offered to them, not only because the strategy wasn't in their favor, but probably more so because their country was too small, so the Prince of Xiliang didn't want it.
