Pioneering

Chapter 228 Meeting of Five Nations?The prelude to the Eighteenth Allied Forces!

Some people are brave and fearless, and use their lives to practice their morality.

But it is undeniable that the vast majority of living beings are just ordinary people who are full of fear of death.

And the mermaid Walander, who has been wandering in the "danger warning" all year round, is obviously not a hero who takes death at home...

After Zhong Ming and Wallander communicated in private, they drove 9 to [-] fish captives along the river to join John's trio, and asked the trio to escort the captives back to Chang'an.

As for Walander himself, he was sent back to the sea by Zhong Ming in the name of "delivering a letter".

In name, Wallander went to the mermaid tribe to convey Zhong Ming's ransom condition for "the giant opening of the giant kun";

Secretly, Walander, who signed the soul contract, wanted to develop disciples for Zhong Ming among the Hai clan.

In the first year, there must be no fewer than one hundred thousand believers, and within three years there must be one million believers, otherwise Zhong Ming can use the contract to harvest his soul at any time.

Zhong Ming was moved, he let go of a fish, in exchange for millions of Sea Race believers, and the opportunity to continue to operate and infiltrate the belief of the Sea Race.

As for the remaining nearly [-] mermaid captives, it can be regarded as "the future can be expected"... Either they died in the coolie camp for water conservancy, or they were executed by Zhong Ming to win people's hearts.

The high probability is to work as a coolie for a period of time, squeeze out the labor force, go through the process of redemption, and then be executed.

If the mermaids could really come up with the "sky-high price" ransom that Zhong Ming casually raised, it was not impossible for him to consider releasing these people.

However, this probability is no less than that the lottery lottery ball is suspended on the falling track due to "weather"...

Just when Zhong Ming was slowly flying back to Chang'an City, trying to enjoy the scenery along the way and avoid a lot of government affairs by the way.

A meeting against Asshai was quietly held in the Winkrel Palace.

The meeting was held in the central hall of the palace.

A gorgeous chandelier hangs on the high vault, and the light-attribute magic stone inlaid in the chandelier emits soft light, enveloping the entire hall in golden warmth.

The figures of nobles and waiters shuttled back and forth in the hall, and a solemn round table was placed in the center of the hall, around which sat representatives of various countries.

The five countries of Winkrell, Diemen, Wiserd, Estonia and Magzek sent representatives to decide to jointly boycott and suppress Yaxia through a meeting.

In this harsh world full of competition, power and resources are inherently owned.The momentum of Yaxia's rise clearly made them aware of a sense of crisis.

And Yasha's aggressiveness was also fully displayed after the destruction of Andreouya.

At the beginning of the meeting, the representatives of the five countries first discussed how to hit the Kingdom of Asshai economically.

Representative Winkrell: All trade with Asshai is prohibited, especially grain trade!
Representative Dimen: Second, anyway, we don't have much rich food.

Representative Magzek: I am neutral, of course, we have always been a food importing country.

Representative of Wized: In name we support it, but nobles are free...

Estonian representative: We are just asking for money!Need food!If you want everything, you want us to help you stand by your side and make money!

Second issue.

Representative Winkrell: Stop importing all materials produced by the Kingdom of Asshai!
Representative Dimen: Don't put an end to arms, right?If we don't import mana cannons and ammunition, wouldn't it be even more difficult to defeat Yasha in the future?
Representative Magzek: Yes, very, very well. Representative Dimen said well!

Representative of Wized: In name we support it, but nobles are free...

Delegate from Estonia: Make money!On the other hand, the magic cannon looks really good, if you don't pay, we'll go find Yasha!
The third issue.

Representative Winkrel: Since the first two issues are not going well, let's just skip them.Take the small country directly and assemble the army to fight them!Then you can have whatever you want!
Let's go first, with an army of one million and 20 knights, it's not a problem. We can also send troops from seven counties.

But borrow Magzek.

Representative Dimen: Well, I can bring in four counties, gather a maximum of 50 expeditionary troops, and [-] knights, but we have to use Wiserd.

Representative Magzek: This...it's not good to fight and kill. It hurts peace. Do you want to talk to Yasha again?

Representative of Wei Zed: It is okay to send troops, or to borrow roads, but the food road must go our way!We can also send 50 troops, [-] knights, and four more counties.

Delegate from Estonia: Make money!The one with the highest price wins, and we will help whoever gives the most benefits!
In the end, the proposal to form a military alliance and send elite troops from each to organize coalition forces to attack the mainland of Asshai was basically passed.

The Kingdom of Winkrell, Wiserd, and Dimen said that they can join in the early stage and bring fifteen younger brothers, and the Eighteenth Route Allied Forces will attack Yaxia.

Majke said that it is okay to make excuses, but he has to wait and see until they can separate before making a decision; Estonia is ready to see the results of the extortion by both parties.

Fourth topic.

military strike plan.The coalition forces want to use their own advantages to attack and gradually wipe out Yasha.

Winkrell: Priest spellcasters will be the first marchers, leading soldiers to attack the northern provinces first.

Dimen and Wized: Mobilize elite knights and troops to jointly attack the western provinces.

Magzhek: We can scout for you, provide you with information...

Estonia: It doesn't matter if you attack the Assia Coastal Province, pay money first!

Fifth topic.

Winkrell: Don't hide it, everyone, have you imitated anything from the magic cannons and muskets you got?Do you all communicate with each other?Especially when it comes to you, Magzek!
Dimen: I actually managed to buy some by relying on grain, but unfortunately, there has been no progress for the time being.The simple structure can be imitated, but the above enchanting technique, as well as the formula of yellow dynamite, just...

Magzek: Conscience of heaven and earth, everyone knows that the last time the sleeping curse incident happened, our court mages of Magzek suffered heavy losses, and we really didn’t find anything out of research!
Wized: Some free nobles under my command also freely obtained some of these equipments, and we can also copy the structures.

But to be honest, without the use of dynamite, without those enchanting blessings, the power is at most one-tenth, which is a waste of metal!

Estonia: We are short of money, can't afford research, and can't even afford to buy!If you don't support a little more, we will go to Asshai!
Rest of the countries: Estonia, what the hell is wrong with you?How to be poor like crazy?
Estonia: Family ugliness should not be publicized... Forget it, it can’t be covered anyway. We have a domestic problem, which affects food and production.If you want to know more, please send "unmarried" royal family members "under the age of 30" to our country to investigate for yourself!

Finally, a discussion of shot clock.

Winkrell: I can mobilize this amount of people and supplies in three years.

Dimen: I need four or five years, and the mountainous roads are not easy to walk, forgive me.

Wized: I also need four years, the nobles are free... It takes a little time to summon them.

Don't have too much expectations for the mobilization ability and material preparation ability under the vassal system... especially when expeditions are required.

With the passage of time, the prestige of the royal family has declined, and the mobilization of hundreds of thousands of troops has reduced to the point where it takes several years to prepare.

When the country was first founded, everyone could send an expeditionary force of this size within a year at most!
Conclusion, four years later, troops will be dispatched from multiple directions to wipe out Yasha!

During this period, countries formed military alliances. If one side was attacked by Yashai, the other countries must send military support immediately.
