Starting from the recovery of Shanhaijing

Chapter 466
Following Yan Jing's order.

The preparations for the first phase of the expedition fleet are in full swing.

The suggestions of Lin Qin and Fu Shudao, the two masters of Chengshu, have achieved a lot.

Since learning that Xie Chong will launch an unprecedented attack, and the expedition fleet is willing to take the initiative to assist the migration of the settlement.

In the area around Lighthouse Island, all the settlements that can receive the message choose to join the expedition fleet without exception.

Especially under the premise that the preparation time has been compressed and the atmosphere on the expedition fleet is becoming more and more urgent, many settlements that originally wanted to wait and see can no longer calmly be onlookers.

The smoke of war has already begun to fill the air.

In a fateful battle, there is no neutral camp.

All of this is faithfully reflected in the number of personnel recruited by the expeditionary fleet.

On the first day, there were no more than 3000 people. On the second day, there were no more than [-] people in the settlements, survivor teams, and even some warships wandering outside because of their own strength.

The first two are fine, obeying the arrangement, they can basically be transformed into fleet boat people in a short period of time, while the situation of wandering warships is a bit special, they are more like a combination of mercenaries and merchant ships.

In the past, they sold goods and received tasks by shuttling between major settlements and flying dragon boats.

Although their combat power is strong, their style of work is quite loose. They do not accept the reorganization of the expeditionary fleet, and only express their willingness to participate in the Great Expedition in exchange for stationing in the airport after the war.

Yan Jing did not refuse this, and agreed quite readily.

To put it bluntly, Yan Jing doesn't care where these people come from or whether they have other ideas in their hearts. He only has one criterion, as long as he is willing to assist the expedition fleet to fight against evil spirits, he can negotiate any conditions.

Of course, if these people intend to fool him and don't work hard, then after the war, he will have his own way to solve it.

In any case, there is no doubt that the increase in the number of expeditionary fleets will increase the strength, and the resulting siphon effect will become stronger.

The next two days.

The entire expedition fleet has entered a virtuous circle.

A large number of manpower supplements have enabled various tasks to be carried out at an extremely fast speed.

However, this kind of large-scale human gathering has unsurprisingly attracted the attention of evil spirits. The preparations at the airport are still unknown, but the environmental changes around Lighthouse Island are becoming more and more clear.

From the third day onwards, the wind and rain in the area where Lighthouse Island is located became more and more manic.

The sky in the Shenzhou world without the sun is already dark, and now it is even more difficult to see the light. Even in the daytime, the searchlights have to be turned on.

That's all.

With the shelter of a lighthouse, the dim light does not affect the work.

The real trouble is the monsters lurking in the airspace around Lighthouse Island at unknown times.

Start on the night of the third day.

Various monsters launched a suicide attack on the expedition fleet.

"At eleven o'clock, we saw three monstrous elephant-nosed birds approaching rapidly, and the Razor is about to take off!"

This is already the fifth warning issued by Yufeng sentry tower in the morning of the fourth day.

Upon receiving the news, the Sharp Blade team, which had already been on standby, rushed out from the inner city, braved the rain, passed through the workers on the deck and the armored soldiers patrolling back and forth, and went straight to the Sharp Blade, which had been overhauled not far away.

After only 3 minute.

The Sharp Blade soared into the sky with the hum of the engine, and galloped out.

At this time, everyone on the deck was still busy with their work, and there was no confusion at all. It was not that everyone had a big heart, but that the attacks in the past ten hours were too frequent and numb.

When they first encountered the attack, it did cause quite a bit of confusion. The senior executives of the expedition fleet even suspected that Xie Chong was planning to act preemptively and block them on Lighthouse Island.

As a result, after several combat airships took off, they realized that there were only two or three kittens, which were not enough to pose a threat at all.

This kind of behavior is more like the evil spirits testing the expedition fleet.

Want to find out the progress of their preparations and monitor the actions of the expedition fleet.

"Hey, let me just say that it is the most correct decision for us to join the fleet. Look around, the soldiers are equipped with combat airships ready to take off at any time. If our previous settlement encountered an attack of this scale, It has long been washed away!"

On the left side of the Yufeng, the new boatmen who were queuing up looked at the fierce battle in the sky and said with emotion.

In front of them, the staff of the flying dragon boat are still carrying out the final registration work in an orderly manner.

"This fleet is good. When I came here, I heard that today is the deadline, and an expedition is about to be launched. We may have to go to the battlefield if we are not sure."

Someone next to him shrank his neck, looked back at the fleet members who were evacuating from Lighthouse Island, and said,
"Look, they are moving all the things on the island to the dragon boat. They must be doing this because they plan to leave Lighthouse Island."

"Ha! If you are afraid, there is still time to go down now, isn't it just to go to the battlefield, you still have to face the group of monsters if you stay, why not fight with the big army, as long as you can fight for a future for our descendants , my life is worth it!"

In the face of danger, some people will shrink back and others will naturally rise up.

For those who are struggling to survive in the last days, the most indispensable thing is blood!
There were endless discussions here, while Yan Jing was listening to the reports of Fu Shudao and others on the Xuntian on the other side.

Although there are still many settlements on the way, the situation around Lighthouse Island is enough to prove the urgency of the situation.

Expeditionary fleets cannot wait any longer.

Xie Chong was able to send a large number of monsters to harass, and even the environment changed, which shows that the situation near the airport has deteriorated.

The success or failure of the Great Expedition is at stake, and now is definitely not the time to slow down for the sake of one or two thousand people.

"As of now, the total population of the expeditionary fleet is close to 5000, and the number of combat troops is close to 830. Among them, the number of first-line elite troops equipped with power armor is 250, nearly [-] combat airships of various types, and the number of air combat troops is [-]. , the rest of the personnel will be responsible for the deck defense tasks of the flying dragon boats and undertake part of the landing combat tasks."

Although a large number of fighters have been recruited, the fighters who can really go to the front line and face the evil spirits are basically the elites on the seven flying dragon boats, and the rest are selected from the best of the settlements.

On the contrary, the air combat unit does not have so many requirements. As long as it can go to the battlefield, it will be incorporated into the combat unit.

"It's almost done. The specific combat plan is up to you to decide. What I can do is to open the gap for you. I will carry out the most dangerous tasks!"

Yan Jing listened to Fu Shudao's report, nodded from time to time, and finally spoke.

Professional things are left to professional people.

Yan Jing never thought of interfering with the specific combat plans of the various units of the expedition fleet.

After all, he only knew a few guard captains so far, so it would be pure trouble to intervene rashly to do micro-management.

What he has to do is very simple, that is to point out the direction for the expedition fleet, and then try his best to break through the defense line of the airport, find the evil spirit hiding in the airport, and crush it to ashes!
