This sea lord is a bit strong

Chapter 235 Monica's subtle operation, rebuilding the home, three main goals
Ji Chen stared blankly at the group of soldiers from the Kingdom of Bath with terrified faces, and he had already dealt with them in his heart.

It would be too cheap to kill them outright.

Waiting for them will be the same dark mine labor as the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce group, until the last trace of value is squeezed out.

Don't say that he is cruel and innocent. If the Crown of the Ocean is breached by them, the residents of the Crown of the Ocean will probably be transported back to the Kingdom of Bath like slaves and assigned to various mines. In more serious cases, they will even cut off their heads directly. , as enemy soldiers to earn military merit.

But before that, he had to interrogate Ferode.

With an order, the soldiers tied up all five flowers and lifted Ferode, who was enjoying the luxurious prison all by himself, and made him kneel on the ground.

At this time, the fleet commander, who used to show off his might, now looked like a drowned rat, his face pale after being soaked in water for a long time.

Seeing himself being brought up in front of Ji Chen, his body trembled uncontrollably, not knowing what kind of torture and interrogation he would have to suffer.

His head was lowered in fear, not daring to look directly.

Seeing a so-called nobleman from the Kingdom of Bath so cowardly, the soldiers next to him looked contemptuous.

Feeling the soldier's eyes, Ferode felt his face was hot, and the sense of shame filled his whole brain.

Ji Chen sat on the chair carried by the soldiers, looked at them expressionlessly, and said calmly.

"Your next answer will determine whether you live or die."

"As long as I find out that you have lied a little, you can imagine the consequences."

The faint words are full of oppressive force that cannot be refuted.

Hearing this, Ferode, who cherished his life very much, nodded his head like a drum.

What are honor and integrity to him?Only by living can we have a future, and if we die, we will have nothing.

Maybe I can go back alive in the future and continue to enjoy the beauties and wealth.

Seeing how knowledgeable he was, Ji Chen started asking questions without wasting time.

"I heard that you are a baron of the Kingdom of Bath."

Unlike the previous interrogation, all he asked was about the size of the Kingdom of Bath.

Now it can be said that after solving the reconnaissance fleet of the Kingdom of Bath, the crown of the ocean and the Kingdom of Bath have completely torn their skins. As long as the Kingdom of Bath realizes that Ferode and the others have not returned, they will know that they have The broken halberd sinks in the sand here.

Whether it is for the hatred accumulated before and after, or the benefits that the New Moon Islands can bring to them, the Kingdom of Bath will look for opportunities to send troops to attack again.

This is just a matter of time.

In other words, the crown of the ocean will be challenged like never before.

The so-called know yourself and the enemy, and win a hundred battles.

Ji Chen felt that it was necessary to obtain some information from Ferode, a nobleman of the Bath Kingdom.

Facing one question after another, Ferode answered them honestly, adhering to the principle that if he answered dishonestly, he would be beaten.

But gradually, he realized something was wrong.

Why are you asking questions about the Kingdom of Bath?
What is the military strength, the number of fleets, the strength of soldiers, the location of ports and so on.

It's as if you're probing a target that's about to attack.

He suddenly thought of a possibility, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

Could it be that this Lord of Glory wants to counterattack the Kingdom of Bath! ?

What an international joke! ?

Ferode's expression changed suddenly.

The Kingdom of Bath is a kingdom, and there are only a dozen kingdoms and duchies of the same level in the entire Northern Continent.

How can a little honorable lord be shaken?
It is one of the most powerful kingdoms along the northwest coast of the Mediterranean Ocean, known for its military strength.

The fleet he led was just a very inconspicuous scouting fleet under the command of a certain fleet among several main fleets in the Mediterranean Sea of ​​the Kingdom of Bath.

Any main fleet has more than a plurality of main battleships, dozens of frigates, plus various supporting ships, the number is at least sixty or seventy.

The total number of all fleets in the entire Mediterranean is almost a thousand, and the firepower carried on them is enough to cut the entire Crescent Islands to a few meters above sea level, and the naval soldiers it carries are enough to fill the entire islands.

Now this Lord of Glory actually has the idea of ​​counterattacking, I'm afraid he has eaten the heart of a bear and leopard! ?
Ji Chen looked at Ferode's changing expression, but didn't explain anything.

Instead, he closed his eyes.

Combine the many information he said, the information he has learned now, the power and resources he possesses, etc., with each other.

Crown of the Sea, Kingdom of Bath, Duchy of Reinhardt, Elves, Sea of ​​Storms
As the time goes.

The train of thought gradually became clearer, and a rough outline of the plan gradually appeared in my mind.

Seeing Ji Chen suddenly close his eyes, Ferode seemed to be thinking about something, and didn't dare to interrupt, just kneeling obediently.

But he was secretly sure in his heart that this Lord of Glory must be committing suicide.

But this is also good, so that he can be rescued one day and continue to enjoy his noble life.

After a long time, Ji Chen slowly opened his eyes after Ferode knelt down and his legs felt a little numb.

His eyes are piercing.

asked.

"What's going on between the Kingdom of Bath and the Principality of Reinhardt?"

Ferode was stunned for a moment, thinking that no matter how much he revealed the information, the Lord of Glory would be just doing his job, so he simply said it outright so as not to suffer flesh and blood.

"Following that bitch Monica... ahem, after returning to the Principality of Reinhardt, the daughter of the Grand Duke used the attack to expose the conspiracy and launched verbal criticism, which made us extremely passive."

"Not only that, according to the information we got, Monica did not disclose that this was a conspiracy planned by the three countries at the beginning, but only aimed the firepower of public opinion at us,
At the same time, they used this excuse to threaten the other two kingdoms, and asked them to put the firepower of public opinion on the Kingdom of Bath, and jointly condemn and exert pressure..."

"The other two kingdoms were caught and had to agree to this request, but in fact, they were also somewhat happy to see the Kingdom of Bath shrink, because the Kingdom of Bath's military strength has grown extremely rapidly over the years, and there is a desire to expand. Territory, a sign of the unification of the four countries on the northwest coast of the Mediterranean,

So they can't sit still, and Monica's threat is just in line with their wishes, and they don't need to bear the main pressure anyway..."

Hearing this, Ji Chen couldn't help admiring Monica's superb operation.

When she knew that it was a conspiracy planned by the four countries, she did not choose to be tough but to save the country with curves. She was keenly aware that the Kingdom of Bath and the other two countries were not inseparable, and successfully used their fear and worry about the Kingdom of Bath , decisively threatened them with the handles in their hands to exert pressure together.

In this way, the Principality of Reinhardt not only does not have to confront the pressure of the three kingdoms, but only needs to deal with the Kingdom of Bath, and after such an incident, the Kingdom of Bath will definitely hate the two countries that betrayed them. A rift that is difficult to heal will be broken. Even if they unite again in the future, this rift will still exist in their hearts, and it will also make it difficult for them to work closely together, greatly reducing the threat.

This is killing two birds with one stone.

Of course, convincing the other two countries must be a difficult process, but according to Ferode's words, it is obvious that this has been successful.

Monica's extremely ingenious means directly reversed the situation, allowing the originally passive Principality of Reinhardt to gain the upper hand in an instant. In this way, the Kingdom of Bath was not a human being inside or outside, which was very embarrassing.

"But in my opinion, it won't be long before the king will launch a war and attack the Principality of Reinhardt with pure military force."

Ji Chen was puzzled, "Why are you so sure?"

If what he said just now is true, then how dare the Kingdom of Bath brave the pressure of public opinion, how can it deal with the other three countries at the same time?
"The king was originally a fanatical war initiator. Before that, he started wars with surrounding forces and city-states successively. He conquered and obtained a large area of ​​land, which greatly enhanced the strength of the kingdom and greatly increased its prestige.

But such frequent mobilization has now cultivated a group of nobles who are extremely enthusiastic about war. They are eager for war, because only through war can they get a lot of spoils, land, slaves and more wealth. "

Speaking of this, Ferode looked at Ji Chen cautiously, "If they know that the scouting fleet I led has fallen here, they will definitely encourage the king to send a stronger fleet."

Ji Chen asked the soldiers to escort Ferode back.

With a slightly heavy heart, I walked back to the crown of the ocean.

The Kingdom of Bath is naturally a very powerful enemy for them now, and the thousands of steel warships alone are a force that can push them horizontally.

But fortunately, the Crown of the Sea is not their main goal. The main goal of the Kingdom of Bath must be the Principality of Reinhardt. The Crown of the Sea may not be able to use this to save the day.

Only one day after the end of the war, the Crown of the Ocean was as lively as usual.

The busy figures of many Ocean Crown residents appeared among the charred ruins.

The division of labor is clear and there is no confusion at all.

Some were cleaning up the wreckage of the building, while some were moving various materials and resources from the warehouses that had not been damaged during the war. Under the command and planning of the chief engineer, Willus, the building was rebuilt.

In just a few months, all the residents have regarded the crown of the ocean as their home, and they also understand that such a paradise will inevitably be coveted by greedy people. They do not have force like the army, and they can take up arms to resist the enemy. They can only maintain their homes in this way.

The shadow of war did not hang over their heads, and all residents held a belief in their hearts - to rebuild their homes.

Seeing that the residents have not been frightened by the war at all, and even the public opinion has not dropped much, Ji Chen is a little relieved.

Apart from being relieved, a strong desire to increase the strength of the army and arms also surged in my heart.

After this war, Ocean Crown exposed many problems.

First of all, Ferode led the fleet into the stormy sea area. Although the early warning lighthouse detected its appearance, the Crown of the Ocean had no resistance at all, so they broke through the sea defense line and directly entered the landing battle.

Although this was related to Ji Chen taking away a considerable part of the army, it also exposed that Ocean Crown lacked decent sea blocking and coastal defense forces.

——To put it simply, there are not enough steel warships and coastal defense facilities to fight against the enemy.

If there were dozens of shore defense alchemy cannons like Gustav Cannon, the enemy fleet would never dare to approach at will like before, nor would it be able to provide unscrupulous artillery support to the landing troops.

Secondly, the military strength of Ocean Crown is also gradually unable to keep up with the enemy. When fighting enemies at the kingdom level, the second and third tiers are basically cannon fodder-level existences, the fourth tier is considered the main force, and only the fifth tier can be used Gain an absolute advantage in the battle with the enemy!
It is imminent to strengthen the arms again!

Third, the lack of powerful heroes.

Even though he already has a number of heroes who are strong enough for other players, he still feels that heroes are not enough.

The current main heroes of Ocean Crown:
Anina, level 40, a red heritage hero.

Alice, level 39, a red heritage hero.

Verena, level 25 (weak), orange legend.

Benbo Erba, level 39, purple rare level.

Darrow, level 38 (serious injury), blue excellent level.

The rest are not some ordinary blue, green and white heroes, but living and internal affairs heroes like Willus, Ilona, ​​and Lysa.

The trip to the Northern Continent allowed him to gain 30 years of allegiance from Verena, a legendary hero. When her injuries are fully recovered, he will be a very terrifying super powerful combat force.

In addition, Ji Chen also accidentally obtained a bottle of deep-sea Naga original blood from Yasen's gift in return. This pure blood is full of huge energy and presumably can create a powerful Naga hero.

After the heroes such as Darrow and Benbo Erba returned and recovered, they would be upgraded to another wave of strength, and then they could barely give Ocean Crown a bit of confidence to fight against the Kingdom of Bath in terms of high-end combat power.

In addition, we must find ways to train more low-level heroes, which is also one of the ways to improve the combat effectiveness of the army.

Ji Chen thought for a long time and determined three main directions for the future development of Ocean Crown.

shook his head.

Amid a burst of greetings from the residents, they came to the military recruitment camps standing like a stone forest.

Under the enemy's artillery fire, a group of recruiting battalions of arms were destroyed and lost the ability to recruit their arms.

Fortunately, the recruiting camps of several main arms were not damaged beyond repair. At Ji Chen's request, the damaged recruiting camps were repaired first, and the completely destroyed recruiting camps were also cleaned up, leaving a large open space.

For the time being, Ji Chen didn't care about the existing military recruitment battalion, but took out the [-] cores he bought from a street stall in Fenglin City.

One is the water elf shooter, and the other is the cancer guard, each accounting for half.

No delay, just choose to build it.

With a rumbling sound, twenty recruitment battalions rose from the ground.

Looking at these brand new recruitment camps, Ji Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.

Let's start with these two new arms for the further enhancement of the Ocean Crown's arms.
