However, after the Yue Kingdom won the maritime victory, he returned to Yue Kingdom with his spoils - a lively Wu Daqian, a relatively intact frigate of 5,000 tons, and a ten-ton warship with only iron shells.

Follow Wujiang to go upstream, and then follow one of the tributaries to return to the Emperor Yue.

At that time, the country of Yue held a grand welcoming ceremony.

This time, the Yue Kingdom visited north for more than three months, but the results brought back were very abundant. As soon as he came back, he cut off one of the arm of Wu. Wu Daqian, one of the two commanders of the Wu Kingdom, was captured alive.

Afterwards, the broken iron shell of the 10,000-ton warship was briefly repaired at the suggestion of Prime Minister Gou Yuanli, and then prepared to be built into a water palace and become a veritable "palace". This made the Emperor of Yue happy. Of course, it would take some time to complete the construction, but the Emperor of Yue was still happy.

After the celebration, the commander of the Vietnamese Navy led this powerful fleet to start siege the city.

Unlike the Jin State in the north, Liu State, Wu and Yue State are mostly "fragmented". Domestic waterways are crisscrossed, and many waterways in many places can navigate 10,000 tons of giant ships without needing to be sorted out.

Needless to say, the State of Yue followed the waterway and continued to retreat, and the military force retreated from the tide of the seaside, and retreated to the inland in just half a month. After retreating to the small river, the State of Wu barely stabilized.

It barely stabilized, but the Wu Kingdom also lost a large area of ​​territory, with only 40% of its territory remaining, and its war potential was severely weakened. The more powerful Yue Kingdom almost suppressed the Wu Kingdom, and the Wu Kingdom was covered in dust.

At the beginning, giant ships and cannons brought surprises to the imperial capital of Wu; now giant ships and cannons brought panic to the Wu Kingdom! The confidence of the people was severely ravaged.

Especially the discovery of the black iron ore vein on the beach was swallowed by Yue State, which made the Yue State cultivators have magic weapons available, and Wu State could no longer support it.

Also, because of the power of Yue Kingdom and being generous, many merchants from the Shang Kingdom who followed him completed the transactions in Yue Kingdom. The merchants returned with a full load, and Yue Kingdom also obtained a large amount of supplies; this made Yue Kingdom even stronger!

At this time, Fu Minghui also bid farewell to the hospitality of the Emperor of Yue, came to Daqingshi, and began to establish the first ocean-going base in the Shang Kingdom. Because of Daqingshi, this place was named Qingcheng.

…………

On the sea, Chang Linao, the commander of the Navy of the Shang Kingdom, stood on the bow of the 30,000-ton "General", followed by a 10,000-ton "Defright" and two 5,000-ton "Warriors". Four warships broke through the wind and waves and sailed south.

Behind the fleet are 20 merchant ships of Pengcheng Wanli Group; the total displacement of these merchant ships is 150,000 tons and the net weight of cargo transported is about 80,000 tons.

In front of the caravan of Pengcheng Wanli Group, Xiao Zihou, the second shareholder of Pengcheng Wanli Group, quietly looked at the four warships in front.

Although I have seen it all the way, Xiao Zihou still likes to quietly look at the warships ahead. An indescribable pride, gratitude, and emotion arises from his heart.

The merchants went out to do business, and the Shang Kingdom actually sent the best fleet to escort it. Moreover, all this was free. Even along the way, Xiao Zihou was a little disgusted and wanted to reward the hardships of the navy, but Chang Lin refused righteously.

"Paying taxes is your obligation. Protecting the people is the obligation of soldiers!" This is the reason why Chang Lin refused.

The 24 ships sailed south at a speed of 180 kilometers per hour, with flags flying on the bow. They encountered too many sea tribes and monsters along the way, but none of them dared to attack the fleet.

Even some friendly monsters hover around the fleet, and occasionally people on the fleet would throw down some exquisite food from humans, causing some crazy robberies.

Sunrise and sunset, day after day. Gradually, Xiao Zihou no longer worried about whether he would make a profit or lose money this time, because a kind of passion began to emerge in Xiao Zihou's heart, and a dream began to bear fruit.

‘Not for profit, even for this pride, I will go south! I will preach to every country the strength and prosperity of the Shang Kingdom, as well as the laws and human rights here.’

Under the leadership of Li Xian and a series of planning of the Shang Kingdom, the budding of new ideas finally appeared; Xiao Zihou was just one of them.

When the people of a country can put their interests second and national honor first, this country will be considered a real "founding of a country". Because such a country is not only formal, but also spiritual; only such a country can be shaken!

After such a situation settles down, Li Xian will be able to take greater steps.

With this idea, Xiao Zihou turned around and began to summon the caravan personnel and delivered a speech on national honor at sea.

"We must not only be a person that everyone fears, but also be a person that everyone respects. We travel to the world of business, not only for wealth and luck, but also bring the fairness, law, human rights, openness, freedom of the Shang Kingdom to everyone!

We are not only businessmen, but also bring the seeds of life and the candle of hope! Everyone, persist for half a year. In half a year, we will land in another world as the disseminator of civilization!”

Everyone roared, passionate, and even covered the sound of the waves.

…………

In the south, and in the south, a war between humans and demons is taking place on the land of Haozhou!

Both sides have been relatively calm for tens of thousands of years, but now the peace has been broken!

In the Aoyun Empire, almost every family was in vain; less than a month after the war was going on, the Aoyun Empire suffered heavy losses.

After Yun Feifei, the daughter of King Zhenxi, was stolen by the Heihu Mountain demon clan and the son of General Zhenxi was eaten by the demon clan; the powerful King Zhenxi and General Zhenxi led the troops to attack Heihu Mountain.

As a result, he returned home in a miserable defeat. After years of peace, the human race's combat effectiveness declined greatly.

Just as Li Yulong said, the demon clan has always been the prey of the weak and the strong survive; in the environment of the demon clan, it is almost impossible for cowardice to exist. Because the demon clan's soil does not allow cowardice to exist!

The entire demon clan, from the lowest-level rabbits and rats to the highest-level dragons and phoenixes, bloodlines, devouring and fighting each other. Such an environment cannot tolerate the corruption of the demon clan.

On the contrary, although there are levels within the human race, everyone is a human race, and at least it is impossible to "swallow" situations. Therefore, once there is no war, the human race's combat ability will begin to decline. This is almost an inevitable problem for human society.

Now, after the human army and the demon army with severe combat capabilities have declined, the two sides are like a war between eggs and stones.

In less than a month, large-scale falls began to fall to the west of the Aoyun Empire, and millions of human races were gnawed by the greedy demon race. The resentment turned into a faint cloud, covering the west of the Aoyun Empire, and shrouded the world here with a layer of dim light.

The worst thing is that the human race is hindering among the countries, which is even more common. Especially the demon race is not stupid, they are also lobbying the human race: we don’t want to fight, but the Aoyun Empire is not authentic!

In the Aoyun Empire, many human races hunted demons and obtained demon pills and other alchemy. Many human races secretly entered the demon clan's range to "steal" medicinal materials, digged the demon clan's ancestral graves, and even stole the demon clan's children.

In short, we have no choice but tolerate it. We can only fight. Don’t worry, as long as we conquer the imperial capital of the Aoyun Empire, we will retreat.

Is this? Generally, children with some judgment ability will not believe it; but politicians will believe it! No matter what the reason is, the surrounding countries have indeed stood by and watched in the face of the Aoyun Empire's call for help.

The Emperor of Aoyun Empire was already anxious and his tone was a little anxious: "Mr. Wen Mingxin, the empire has fallen into three counties, tens of millions of people have been displaced, and millions of people have been swallowed up by the demon clan.

Could it be that the Yunxia Sect ignores it!”

In Haozhou, because there are four major sects, there are many small branches under the four major sects; and indirectly grasp the rights of Haozhou. Therefore, there are special national teachers in various countries, and these national teachers are actually representatives and messengers of each sect.

At present, the Aoyun Empire could no longer stand it, so naturally he wanted to ask the national teacher Wen Mingxin for help.

But Wen Mingxin also smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, I have responded to the headquarters several times. The boys around me sent out four waves, but there has been no news at the headquarters.

And to be honest, the situation of Haozhou and other continents is completely different. Because when the Five Elements Spirit Realm was sealed, the demon clan even contributed more than the human race, so a considerable number of demon clans joined in the four major sects.

When we ask for help from the sect, they will only mediate at most, and it is basically impossible to attack the demon clan."

"I know, but mediation is good! If you continue to fight, I don't know how many people will die! I can write off the previous hatred. As long as the demon clan withdraws its troops!"

"No need!" At this moment, an old man suddenly came; the palace guards could not stop him at all.

"Elder!" Wen Mingxin was shocked and hurried to the door to salute.

The old man walked to the Emperor of Aoyun Empire, "I am Zhuge Qi, one of the elders of the Yunxia Sect. We have received your request for help. After discussion, we came to this conclusion. That is... For the sake of the human race, your Aoyun Empire needs to make sacrifices!"

What? The Emperor of Aoyun Empire suddenly shook.

Zhuge Qi shook his head, "You, an emperor, should understand this sentence. However, I still have to explain it.

The human race is a race that is willing to be comfortable, which is understandable. But now, there are various signs that the aura of the great catastrophe is getting stronger. In fact, in the middle of Haozhou, the seal that seals the Five Elements Spiritual Realm has begun to loosen.

But in order to prevent panic, this matter has been suppressed.

Haozhou has been calm for tens of thousands of years, and in recent thousands of years, even small wars of thousands of people have been rare. In this case, once the seal of the Five Elements Spirit World is broken, people will be at a loss, and the entire Haozhou will once again fall into the tragic scene of the ancient times.

In order to avoid this, we must awaken everyone's sense of war in advance and adapt to war in advance. For this reason, even if some people are sacrificed, we will do whatever we can.

If tens of millions of people can save hundreds of millions of creatures in Haozhou, then we must make a choice!

Great love... is destined to be ruthless! If possible, we don’t want it, but some sacrifices are inevitable. Instead of panic and suffering from the entire Haozhou, it is better to sacrifice a small number of people in advance.

Even if this small number of people are tens of millions, it is an empire!

Even if an empire cannot awaken the people’s sense of war, then another empire will come!”

The Emperor of Aoyun Empire was silent. What the elder of the Yunxiao Sect said in front of him was the correct way; but this way was so cruel to those who were about to be "sacrificed".

After a moment of silence, Zhuge Qi said again, "Are you willing to sacrifice for the human race?"

The Emperor of Aoyun Empire smiled bitterly and sighed, "Let the prince leave with you."

"I'll stay!" National Master Wen Mingxin said in a firm tone, "Since I am the national teacher of the Aoyun Empire, then I will live and die together with the Aoyun Empire! However, the whole family has entrusted it to the elders."

Zhuge Qi turned his head and looked at Wen Mingxin in surprise, "You really won't go back?"
Chapter completed!
