Both Tuoba Yuanye and Wu Zuoxi came to Li Cong's side. They looked at this military parade. In the past, people from the four empires didn't know what a military parade was. It turns out that this one is called a military parade now.

Looking at the phalanx with modern soldiers above, Li Cong smiled. What is a military parade? This is a military parade. Generally, such a military parade only occurs when there is a war. At the same time, Li Cong

Cong also invited many guests to visit such an army, but Li Cong's kindness seemed to mean that they didn't like it very much. This was the same as when foreigners came to China in the Qing Dynasty. The emperors of China at that time

I also feel that this is not of much use. If you want to win, you still need a certain level of strength. It is definitely not just about walking in a square formation neatly like this. However, this kind of training method definitely has its role.

If it doesn't work, the armies on Earth will never allow them to train such things all the time. Everything will have its reason as long as it exists, and this is no exception.

The troops that come here to participate in the military parade are not just something you can come to if you want. These seventeen infantry squares all have backgrounds. Most of them are troops that have shown their faces in various battles of the Cao Family Trading Company. The five cavalry

The same is true for the phalanx. In the infantry phalanx, the clothes they wear are already the latest military uniforms of the Cao Family Trading Company. They look almost like some armies on the earth. For people from the other three empires,

Wouldn't it be untraditional to wear such clothes? The pants have reached to the top of one's thighs. There is nothing blocking the outside. They think so, but some generals don't think so.

Combat-style clothes are much better than their long-sleeved military uniforms, whether when running or attacking.

As for the marching baggage behind them, they can just carry it alone. Every soldier in the Cao Family Trading Company's army has three days' worth of dry food and ammunition, as well as their marching blankets, all of which are made of

It is made of wool from the Pilat grassland of the Southern Empire. Each piece costs 7 taels of silver per piece. This is why the Cao Family Trading Company purchases it on a large scale. If you buy it yourself, it will cost at least 10 taels of silver.

.For the three major empires, this blanket is for those soldiers? What a joke, those soldiers are not worth the money, it’s not that we don’t give them face. In fact, they are just untouchables. Besides, in

In their minds, the soldiers went to the battlefield to fight, not to work as handymen here. Soldiers should not do anything other than fight, so all the groceries on the battlefield are not done by soldiers.

It should be done by the handymen, but what they don't know is that with so many more people, their expenses will be more, and some of these handymen are not familiar with some of the habits of the soldiers, and it is very difficult for them to do it.

It is easy to cause misunderstandings of this kind. Of course, there are also some advantages. For example, when there are too many soldiers killed or injured, the use of these handymen comes out. They can change into soldiers' clothes and rush over to become soldiers.

That's it, it's just that they don't have any fighting skills, so they can only be treated as a pile of rotten meat. Apart from that, I really don't know what other abilities they have.

If this was the impact the infantry phalanx had on them, then the artillery drill that followed was an eye-opener for them. This was also a drill specially arranged by Li Cong, but there were just a few more spectators. Except for the three

In addition to the envoys of the great empire, Li Cong also invited the four major sects and some other high-level forces to show you the capabilities of our Cao Family Trading Company. Don't follow me in the Cao Family Trading Company in the future if you think you are a little capable.

Those who are blind and want to point fingers in front of us must have the ability, right? If you don’t have the ability, don’t be embarrassed here.

First of all, everyone moved their bodies. There was nothing in the open space just now. Now they have to go to a place one kilometer away, where Li Cong has quickly trimmed a city wall with cement and bricks. Such a city wall

If they were allowed to build it, it would take at least several years or even more than ten years. But in the Cao Family Trading Company, as long as there are enough people, it only takes a few days or up to a month. The artillery of the Cao Family Trading Company

They started bombarding this thing. At the end, airships from the sky also came and started their revenge on this city wall. If this place was close to the sea, Li Cong might also ask warships at sea to do it together.

This matter may shock them even more when the time comes. In fact, Li Cong doesn't want to expose his war potential so early, but there is no way now? Because he has already felt the influence of the entire continent.

Everyone may kill people like themselves. If the four empires really unite, we may not perish, but we will suffer huge losses.

In half an hour, a very powerful city wall had been completely destroyed. In this time, the armies of the three empires had just formed their offensive formations. Li Cong glanced at this with some distress.

The city wall, damn, tens of thousands of tons of artillery shells are just gone. This would be okay if it appeared on a real battlefield, but now it is just gone. This is a very distressing thing for anyone.

But at the end of the exercise, Li Cong was happy to see the expressions on the faces of the people from the three empires. It is estimated that they will not think about how to stop him after they go back. Indeed, what the people from the three empires are thinking about now is

Li never set his sights on them, so he was very happy. As for the life and death of the Southern Empire, they don't want to care about it. As long as they protect themselves, other things are dispensable. Who told you to take in the Cao family?

I am an enemy of the trading company. Their son was killed by those four guys. I heard that you are involved in this. You just want to kill him. If your country is not destroyed, it seems a bit unreasonable.

, the next war will definitely not be too small. From this point of view, it is better not to be so nosy, and to protect yourself.

"Boss, it hurts you to say this. Just now, my heart was about to bleed. Damn, is this a joke? Every shot of this shell is very important. This thing is not currently in our inventory.

That's enough. No one knows how far the next war will take them. It feels a bit wasteful to talk about this kind of thing. But look at them, they all look like dead dads. I

I'm so happy in my heart. These people want to fight against us, but they don't have the ability yet. It's only a matter of time before we kill them." Takuba Yuanye said with a smile. He really saw those things just now

People's faces. It turns out that when I came here, people from the three major empires didn't treat me very much, but looking at their expressions now, they all want to come over and curry favor with me. But it's already too late now, we don't have that time.

, whatever you want to do is your own business.

"Haha, all investments pay off. Don't you remember what I told you before? Being powerful on the battlefield is not really powerful, because when others realize that you are very powerful, your efforts have already paid off.

, Human life is the most precious thing, and these things cannot be returned, but money is different. Now money is nothing to our Cao Family Commercial Bank, and hundreds of billions and trillions of money are nothing.

It’s nothing. I just wasted tens of billions of money this time and asked them to look at it. They will definitely report it truthfully when they go back. I guess the people in the three empires are not fools and they will know it very well.

We have such ability, what will be the consequences if they come to make trouble again? By then they will not be able to take advantage of it. This is all their own fault. They will definitely cut off their connection with the Southern Empire. We will do it appropriately.

It would be great if we can cause trouble on the front line for a while. Then we will not be afraid that the people of the Southern Empire will not sign the surrender document we have prepared for them. Subduing the enemy's troops without fighting is always the highest level.

"Li Cong said with a smile. Li Cong has been studying this sentence all the time, and basically studies these things thoroughly every time. This is why Li Cong can often do the maximum at the minimum cost.

One of the reasons is that many people fail because they don’t understand this matter.

"Boss, your realm is really good, but as far as I know, people in the three empires now know the importance of the sea, and they have begun to set up some defenses in their outer seas.

, for example, setting up some iron locks and the like on the seashore to prevent our warships from entering, or setting up obstacles of one kind or another on the sea, which would also be a great hindrance to us. They also built them in coastal areas.

Although some catapults have a low hit rate, if there are a lot of them, we will have a lot of obstacles. It will not be so easy to attack them casually in the future." Tuo.

Ba Yuanye felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about some recent things. The advantage he had before was slowly shrinking. This was not a good thing for anyone. Li Cong didn't take this seriously.

of.

"Actually, this is an inevitable trend. People can learn. What will happen to the entire society if there is no progress? These four empires have not made any progress for hundreds of thousands of years, so when they encounter us

They have to be beaten when they are young, and for this reason, they all know that it hurts, so they will change. This is the same for us. If we were always like that before, this will be different for us.

What's the use of saying it? Will we change? Of course not, because our warships will go everywhere and no one will be able to intercept you, and your own tactics will not change. This is absolutely

No, so we must also learn to adapt to this society in such a trend. Don’t we also have our own research institute? Let them use their imagination and make some changes to the enemy. We also need

What has changed, if we don’t change, we may be the ones who fail in the future.” Li Cong said with a smile, he would never bring out any more steel battleships, because such things cannot be used on a large scale even on the earth.

On earth, a fleet of tens of thousands of ships is already very powerful and can be said to be invincible in the world. But here, in such a huge area, a small merchant fleet has such

The scale of the warship is so large that the wooden battleship is the protagonist here. The caliber of the artillery cannot be too large. If it is too large, the hull will not be able to support it at first. In fact, you can see it now

Well, these wooden ships need to be repaired once after going through three or four wars, and each time they are overhauled, otherwise these things will be useless.

"Actually, our people are not doing nothing. Our people are studying a tactic, which can be said to be a ratio of ships. We hope that our fleet can match these ships well. When the time comes to attack, we will be responsible for them.

The military support on the ground is dedicated to doing this, and some obstacles in the harbor will be left to those people. They will perform their duties, and I believe it will be much better than now." Wu Zuoxi's words made Li Cong's eyes light up.

.Now the entire fleet is almost the same as the modern navy in terms of clothing and other things, but their classification and various coordination capabilities are not good. So they need to change and learn, just like now

Same. It's always better to let them figure it out on their own than to tell them how to do it well.

"Okay, these things are just small things to talk about. I called you two here just to let you express your opinions on the war in the Southern Empire and what the soldiers below think, or say

What kind of result do they want to achieve before it is over? What result will the four guys have after they come out of the Southern Empire? Can't they just leave like that?" Li Cong thought of the eyes of those four guys.

The coldness of the forest can be felt by the two people next to him. If ordinary people feel like this, it will feel very cold, but Li Cong himself will also release some ice elements. This does not feel very cold, this is

In fact, it's really cold, just like now. This guy really released the ice element. This Tuoba Yuanye is okay. After all, he is a ninth-level warrior. It's nothing. But this Wu Zuoxi is not good. He

He's just a seventh-level warrior, and he's man-made.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't control my heart when I thought of those four guys. To be honest, I just wanted to teach the Southern Empire a lesson in this war and find them. I didn't expect that things turned out to be

In this situation, their original protagonist has turned into a supporting role. I wonder if they will feel uncomfortable knowing such a role change?" Li Cong saw some frost on Wu Zuoxi's body next to him and hurriedly

Wu Zuoxi said, Wu Zuoxi knew that this matter had always been a concern in Li Cong's heart, so he didn't say anything. In fact, this matter can still be changed.

"Boss, we lost track of those four guys after they left the imperial city of the Southern Empire. As you know, if a tenth-level warrior really wants to escape, unless a tenth-level warrior follows him, no one can

We couldn't catch them. Because we were in the capital of the Southern Empire, it was not convenient for us to let the tenth-level monsters in. It was because the aura of the tenth-level monsters was too strong. If he went in, it would probably kill the people inside.

There is no way to live a normal life. If we had known that we would end up like this with the Southern Empire, we should have let those monsters in. No matter what they thought of us, it would be much better than not knowing anything now.

." Tuoba Yuanye said depressedly. He was originally responsible for this matter, but now that there is no one left, he himself feels very guilty. However, when Li Cong knew the news, he didn't blame him.

Just like what he said, these tenth-level warriors are all powerful. If they want to run away, they won't be able to catch them. Just like what he said, unless they are caught by the tenth-level warriors.

"Although we cannot predict how things will develop, it is still possible to find them. I have already explained that according to the information Min De gave us, the health of the third among them has not recovered yet.

, they can’t get better things, so they have to use things like Ten Thousand Years Ginseng to prepare it. There are only so many ginsengs in various places. If we can pay attention to this, it should be no problem. Let’s take a look at three for now.

There are not many people in the Great Empire who want to buy this thing. It seems that the four of them are still in the Southern Empire. Now we have to hurt the Southern Empire. In this case, I guess they will help us find this person together.

, then we will be very convenient." Seeing that Li Cong's face was not so good, Wu Zuoxi quickly told some better news. As expected, Li Cong's face became somewhat happy after hearing it.

.

"Well, you just need to do this quickly. Tell the people below that everything must be compromised with this matter. If there is even the slightest clue, report it immediately. If they can't do it, let the headquarters do it and mobilize them.

We sent out 50 airships specifically to do this, and we absolutely cannot let them slip through the net like that." Li Cong said angrily, Li Cong couldn't stand these four guys at all anymore, so he had to kill them as soon as possible.

The best yet.

"We will arrange things, but what should we do here in the Southern Empire? Now we are in a dilemma. At first, we just wanted to use this method to let the people in the Southern Empire see our determination. Then they

We would have called those four guys out, but in the end, those four guys ran away. No matter how we attacked the Southern Empire, they would never be able to get us the people we needed. Speaking of which, we were really

I'm depressed about this matter. If we don't attack now, we can definitely keep the area we occupied. This can be said to be another huge victory for us in addition to the dozen or so counties and cities in the Eastern Empire." Tuoba

Yuan Ye said, indeed, this is what is before the Cao Family Trading Company now. If they continue to attack, many people are worried about whether they can continue to fight. You must know that the potential of an empire is very huge.

If an empire were to unleash all its strength, they probably wouldn't be able to resist it. This would seem to be a bit difficult for them, but with such a bright future ahead of them, I don't know what would happen if they gave it a try.

Anyway, as long as they can break through the second line of defense of the Southern Empire, the situation from now on is still unknown. If possible, they really want to break through the second line of defense of the Southern Empire.

Where there are benefits, there are risks. Sometimes there are not only so many benefits, but also so many risks. The benefits obtained by Cao's Commercial Bank now are indeed great. If the second line of defense can be broken, it will

It’s even more powerful, but now there are also great risks. All you think about is what will happen if you break the second line of defense, but what if you can’t break it? Then it may happen.
