The Northern Empire was also very cooperative at this time. They had no intention of attacking at all. Looking at their current situation, they just stayed there. They had no intention of counterattack. Hong Lie stayed alone.
The guards looked around at the front line. The fortifications of the Cao Family Trading Company were fairly well built, but they were a bit rough. However, there were not so many people and there was nothing they could do. In the past, they were all built with the help of engineers.
It was built, but now the engineers have also been dispatched. The engineers are more tired than ordinary soldiers. It seems a little unsuitable for them to do this work, so they can't increase their work.
After measuring it, they are also made of meat, not stone. It does not mean that they are not tired at all. When something like this happens, they feel uneasy. On the surface, they are victorious, but no matter how they defend themselves, they still feel uneasy.
It is too weak, and the lack of troops has reached an extreme limit. In some cities, the official warehouses have not been moved. Such things were impossible to happen in the past, but now there is no such idea.
Now everyone knows clearly what they should and shouldn't do. If they can do it well, it's okay. If they don't do it well, there will be no other way to say something big in the future. These people from Cao's Trading Company
After a day of high mental stress, it was relatively safe. Nothing happened at all. I didn't see any soldiers from the Northern Empire in the front position. These people were also watching the Cao Family Trading Company in their trenches.
Soldiers, I hope these murderous gods will not come over.
"Let the soldiers not be too nervous. We didn't know what the people in the Northern Empire wanted to do before. Naturally, we couldn't tell them that these people were scared and had no courage. But now it's different. Even fools can't.
It can be seen that these guys don't dare to come out at all. Just let half of the soldiers go out to sleep. Even an iron man can't hold on like this. In addition, ask the cooks to boil water and let the soldiers
Let’s all wash our feet and take a good rest. I don’t know how far I have traveled in the past few days. Each of these guys feels that their feet are no longer their own.” After returning from the inspection, Hong Lie saw that
The soldiers looked very tired. I was also very distressed. I had been following the huge command vehicle everywhere in the past few days. I basically didn't walk on my own feet, but I still felt very tired.
Don't talk about them even more.
"Commander, our scouts are all back, and they have brought back the latest news. According to our observation, the enemies in front of us have already gathered. Compared with the past few days, they are all different.
They are considered a real army, but their specific movements are not very clear yet, but they have no intention of attacking us. According to the reports of the scouts, they are now starting to build some fortifications in front of their positions.
And the ones they built are very powerful, and it can be said that they spent a lot of money. After some research, we felt that they were all scared by us." As soon as Hong Lie entered, a staff officer took it in his hand.
The notebook said. These people from the Northern Empire are really useless. They don't even dare to send out a few scouts. Are they afraid of angering the people from Cao's Trading Company? In their eyes, they probably
They are already very happy that the people from Cao's Trading Company don't go looking for trouble with them. As for asking them to come out and cause trouble for Cao's Trading Company, forget it, we don't have that ability.
"Well, this is good news. Let them continue their reconnaissance. I will let the soldiers rest. You are not allowed to rest. You go and study how to use our current troops to expand again. Now
I think you all have understood the situation. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The Northern Empire was directly stunned by us this time. They have no idea what is going on with our people, and they don't know what is going on with our people.
Knowing how our people operate, it can be said that they are blind and deaf. If we cannot seize such opportunities, our army will be no different from them. It is just that our army is too small.
By the way, can you tell the people at the rear that it will be no problem even if some new soldiers are sent here? As long as there are soldiers in hand, anything can be done." Hong Lie said helplessly, and he fought
It has been such a long war, but none of it has been as comfortable as this time. In the past, it was either tragic or difficult to win, but now, this is really the first time I have encountered it.
The people in front of him didn't seem to be soldiers, they all seemed like a group of fat sheep waiting for him to eat.
"Commander, there seems to be nothing we can do at the headquarters. As far as I know, all the troops at the headquarters have only left three divisions. The others have already come over. Now the headquarters is using some.
As for the servants of powerful people, as far as I know, Commander, your family also has about a thousand people. The remaining male servants in your family are estimated to be less than a hundred. Although they are also large-scale
They are recruited, but these soldiers are not ordinary recruits. They have to go through three months of boot camp training. Otherwise, these people may have a lot of discomfort, and these guys are not good at doing things.
So reliable, you have to know that each of these people are a little confused when doing things. Whether these people are trustworthy or not is still a question. Now I guess we can only sigh while looking at the cake." A person just said.
The staff officer who came from the headquarters said helplessly that they may not have encountered such a thing in decades, but because of such a problem here, it is impossible to succeed at all, forget it.
Anyway, these places don’t belong to us, and there is no other way to do it now. Hong Lie reluctantly waved his hand and asked them to go out. I really don’t know what to say about such a thing. Hong Lie himself is not alone in that.
This guy has never thought about giving up on this. For him, there is no way. He has to make his own way. How can it not continue to expand? It still needs to be carefully considered.
The loss of fifteen provinces is not a small matter. Now many people in the Northern Empire are talking about this matter. If the peace talks could be completed at the beginning, perhaps these things would not have happened, and they all know it.
, if these fifteen provinces are lost, they will be lost in vain. The people from the Cao Family Trading Company will not include them in the contract for you. The most important thing is that more than 30% of the iron ore is lost and more than 40% of the smelting is lost.
The Northern Empire did not have enough ability to continue the war, so the peace talks once again appeared in the Northern Empire's court. But who should be sent now? Neither the prince nor the prince could get this matter settled. In the end
Things like this happened during the time, and in the end, it could be said that they had nothing left. If they were allowed to continue to do this, it is estimated that no one would do it if this task was put on their head.
Such a thing. We are not fools. How could we do such a thing? If we do it, how should we bear this responsibility in the end? Previously, the titles of prince and prince were not preserved. Now,
It becomes even more impossible when it comes to them. If they continue to do this, it will only be pulled. They don't have much ability, so in the end they can only fool around. Besides, they don't have much ability.
, the last time people from the Cao Family Trading Company negotiated, how many of them still had some sense or something like that? Now those people must be very open-minded, and we won't be able to get anything by then.
In such a big empire, there is not even one person who comes out to share the worries with the court. Of course, the emperor is very anxious and is about to go to bed in a hurry, but there is nothing that can be done about it, isn't it? Earlier, you were happy for yourself
, just kill all those guys. You are really very happy, but have you ever thought about it, there is no need for peace talks in the future, who will you go to in the future? Those people are all
You are not a fool. If you kill someone, if they go again, they will kill someone if they come back and fail. The most important thing is that these people all know what this is. They were all very depressed at the beginning.
Things are not as simple as you think. If we are really killed by you all, we will be looking for death. Although the empire cannot support it now, for them, they can still live for a while.
There is no need to die now.
Not everyone in the Northern Empire is a loser. There are also some people who feel that the plan of the Cao Family Trading Company seems to be good, but in fact it seems to be a bit not so good. For example, people like them
Why don't we continue the attack? Many people have also said that it may be because the Cao Family Trading Company's army cannot keep up. Can we take the initiative to attack? This sentence was rejected by most people before they were uttered.
What a joke. Are the people at Cao's Trading Company so easy to mess with? Haven't you seen how we live our lives now? They are already trying to kill us.
It’s good that they don’t attack us. What are you doing? Are you seeking death? You are actually thinking of attacking others. I really don’t know what you people are thinking in your heads. Poor really talented people.
People were immediately scolded by these people and lost their temper. I don’t know what they were thinking. Anyway, no one from the Cao Family Trading Company is attacking anymore. We still have our offensive capabilities on the front line. Even if
It is also a good choice to ask our people to go over and give it a try. Such things did not make them understand. Each of these people felt that the matter was not that simple. They wanted to kill them and fight with them. However,
His Majesty the Emperor finally chose to pull out this small group of capable people. These people were trying to deceive people. Many people even said that they were actually spies of the Cao Family Trading Company. They called us directly.
People who went out to die, everyone knew that with the help of the city wall, they could still resist the attack of the Cao Family Trading Company, but if they went to the wild, the cannon was not something that flesh and blood like them could resist.
One thing that is different now from before is that people in the Cao Family Trading Company can throw grenades hundreds of meters away, even thousands of meters away. It is not a joke, and the accuracy is very high. This is because Cao
The soldiers of the family business have been transformed and have such abilities. For this reason, they are even more unable to go out. It is also good to build some fortifications or something.
The people in the Northern Empire saw this and did not do it, but the people in the Eastern Empire figured out the reality of the Cao Family Trading Company. The overall strength of the Cao Family Trading Company can be said to be very strong, but they also failed in one thing.
, now they are very strong internally, but their border areas are very weak. Some of them also sent this news to the Northern Empire, but it is a pity that there are no people in the Northern Empire at all.
Those who believe this. In their opinion, this is a plan of the people of the Eastern Empire. They want to let these people die themselves so that they can gain some advantage. This is how it is between big countries. Basically
They are all like this. They don’t speculate on other people’s good intentions. They only think about other people’s bad intentions. The people in the Eastern Empire don’t think much about this. They just tell you. But the people in the Eastern Empire started their own
With their actions, the first thing they had to do was to seize the three naval bases of the Cao Family Trading Company on the Laitu River in the Eastern Empire, because the Laitu River was directly controlled here, and the Laitu River was the gateway to them.
There is a large river in the capital that can allow the warships of the Cao Family Trading Company to sail across it. Although there are many iron locks on both sides, such things have been proven to be of little use, so there are other things in the Eastern Empire.
Preparations. Tens of thousands of their giant crossbows have been produced, so they also have certain protective capabilities. The inland river defense circle, which has invested hundreds of billions to build, is really effective. For Cao Cao
For the navy of the family business, it is also a very powerful enemy.
In fact, in comparison, the four empires all say that this winter, mine is much more powerful than the other three empires. But why are they also in a passive state of being beaten? It's because they have no way to break through. Plus the wind speed of the good navy is just
It is impossible to rely on some distances on land. The troops added on land also used a series of defensive measures to keep them inside the casino, so that they could not get out of many cities in the Eastern Empire.
You all think that you should take this opportunity to open the blockade next to the building and contact Li Jian about their affairs on the island. This is something that must be done because the reason why the Eastern Empire was strong in the past was because he was not on the island.
The support of countless people on those islands, countless resources, and support from other aspects made the Eastern Empire the strongest among the four empires. This low point is directly related to which islands. Now it seems that those relationships may be
There will be a series of setbacks. From the beginning of the war to now, nothing has moved at all in the morning. It is said that everyone has been occupied by quarrels. But what the actual situation is like is still difficult to say clearly. After all, no one in the outside world knows.
I know that people who are not from the Eastern Empire also want to go out to see if it is better, as they said, but there are running buildings and Kyosuke everywhere on their river. With the forts installed, they let their store manager
Obviously there is no way to go out to the construction site. Guo is the first to know the importance of the sea. For them, it is a very bad thing to prevent them from going out and huddled on the land. They cannot live such a lifestyle and want it.
Went out to have a look?
In the past, it can be said that the Eastern Empire did not have this opportunity, and the HCG troops would not give them this opportunity. There were a huge number of HCG troops in the county staring at them, and there were countless sorrows and locusts flying everywhere in the sky.
The reason why I went there was to see how strong the military strength of the country was. It was for these reasons that the Eastern Empire bought all their possessions and grew them. For them, it would be fine if they had no strength, so it would be like fighting.
The wolf's teeth have been knocked out. It's like a wolf has always been a dog. It's absolutely impossible for him to become a dog. If you want him to be a dog, that's impossible. In winter, that's what I think. Among their colleagues, all of them are wolves.
With their own wolf nature, they cannot be ruled by others, and they cannot be stepped on by others. Just like now, they were stepped on by Shanghang in a quarrel. Although many people do not believe this fact, the fact is the fact, no matter what you believe
If you don’t believe that they are real, it’s like now that there is no outlet to the sea for the winter and New Year. What else can you say? If you really have that ability, why are those domain names in your empire and those who rely on the sea for food now unable to do anything about it?
When you still have to eat, you can only come to the land. In the past, you laughed at the other three empires. How come you have nothing now? Now you have to live without looking at the face of the avatar. You quarreled with the trading company.
After such a long struggle, in the end, besides others winning, where did you win? You don’t seem to have won at all. This is no joke. Everyone knows very well that you are no longer the old empire. It can be said that now
Are you all the same as if I were not in despair?
Let Doubi believe that they are already in dire straits, so why not kill them? They will never admit that they are no longer of much use. For now, they are too high, but they still believe that they are the huge First Empire, especially the East.
As the winter passed, the emperor was always thinking about whether he could be revitalized like his ancestors, but he just thought about it. Whenever he went out and saw the fort not far away, he would think about it.
If you know this, it will become impossible because of these things. The Eastern Empire's blockade is very strict. Although a small part of the central territory is in the good hands of the Tang family today, it can be said that it will not affect the entire winter.
Action, but the area where the Taojia is located is a relatively important area and is not a transportation hub. People on the super-large street will never marry. According to the idea of these people on the runway, if we want to own some of your other cars, we will
Immediately, some of the areas under our control are also areas that you cannot control. After we control these areas, it will be very easy to represent you in other areas. What’s funny is that the high officials in the Eastern Empire haven’t seen that they haven’t.
Do you still want to take advantage of this time to move those important strategic areas to some other important strategic areas? If he adds good people, it will not be so easy for you to come back. If he is not so stupid, if the world lacks you, they will not come back.
There were so many places to go to the four empires, and there were so many managers in the past. Why have they all failed now? That's because they met someone who was smarter than them. Now things seem to have turned around. They seem to have seen good things.
But some people who have done this have said it, so what if I didn't see the weakness he added?
The Cao family is good. Even if there is a crisis in the position of some people, you have clearly seen the defensive measures they have. Can we solve them? What kind of weapons did we hold in our hands during the trial? Don't talk about it.
What kind of weapons are they getting? If we can't solve this matter in the best way, no matter how hard we try, it won't be possible. But after these people say it, they will be as direct as those normal but gone ones in Beijing.
Ignored, many people just slapped them on the head, thinking that these people are alarmists, it can't happen, it's either you people who are talking nonsense, or you are just afraid of being better and good people. The tape is nothing more than afraid of war.
At that time, your current life was ruined. If you think this way, you are not worthy of being called an empire. You will not become the elite of the empire. If there is such a thing, you will all think about your own family affairs.
They don't care about the empire's affairs. Everyone in the empire hates your way of confusing right and wrong, which makes these people feel very helpless. We are obviously just for the empire. How come we are so selfish after we come to your place?
Forget it, since you all think we are selfish, let’s not stand up and be annoying. We should just stay at home and take care of ourselves. We can wait until you suffer a loss in the future to talk about other things. In winter, I have been doing this all these years.
What they are releasing is defensive attack power. It can be said that there is no development at all. The development company is not like their offensive momentum and they have an advantage. If they look like they are attacking in the avatar, their giant crossbows on both sides of the river are not easy to eat.
Can the people he adds suffer great losses?
The people in the Eastern Empire didn't know what to say. Even if they wanted to attack, they had been thinking about it for a long time, just like now. They also felt that this matter would not end so easily. For
For them, the matter in front of them is still very important. If they cannot figure out this matter, they will not attack. Many of the spies who were sent there have already returned. If the Cao Family Trading Company
In the early days, such a thing would not be so easy to succeed. In the early days, it was impossible to ask people to come over. The people in the Cao Family Trading Company were not fools, and there were no people around at that time.
Others, but it is different now. Now a small market will be formed next to the naval base of Cao Family Trading Company. This is something that cannot be helped. From the beginning of the war to now, the economy of the Eastern Empire has not been very good.
Well, the common people don’t have much money in their hands. The easiest thing to see from these small business people is how the economy of this society is going. None of these small businesses in the Eastern Empire are for fools.
Of course, they also wanted to make their business easier, so they hurriedly went to do business around the soldiers of the Cao Family Trading Company. Although the Eastern Empire said that doing business with the people of the Cao Family Trading Company was treason, but then
They are all large-scale, not small-scale.
They are not stupid. Of course they will not do things that can be found out. No matter how profitable the matter is, they will not do such a thing. But now it is completely different.
I just took my own car to sell it. There was not even a single person from the government around. Besides, I left early and came back late. The people on the blockade checkpoint only needed a small amount of money.
At first, the people from the Cao Family Trading Company also prohibited them from coming over, but later they discovered that they also needed to go out to buy many daily necessities, and sometimes people from the headquarters were slow to come over. Besides, it was a bit slow in the military camp.
There are no entertainment activities. After a long time, the mental condition of these soldiers is also very serious, so it is a good thing to let them all go out and relax. Later, some people will no longer care about this matter.
Later, this place became a market, and even some officers from the Cao Family Trading Company felt that it was not good and could not stop it. Compared with the leakage of military secrets, this place was more important to the soldiers. But there were
They all play a very important role when going out, and all of them are young men. They may need some other things. Such things appear here, and the appearance of such things also makes the Cao Family Trading Company
People feel very good. Of course, their own salaries are gone. These people do not serve you for free. Everything requires money. Fortunately, these people's fees are not very expensive.
. Otherwise, these people still can’t afford it. You must know that although the salary system of Cao’s Commercial Bank is good, they are afraid that some people will spend all their money when they are stationed outside, so they only give it to them.
One part is enough, and the rest is sent home. All the soldiers are very grateful for this, mainly because a person can't control himself when he is outside. Fortunately, such things are now over.
not bad.
The spies of the Eastern Empire are very good at gathering information and so on. They have no way to deceive the soldiers of the Cao Family Trading Company, because those soldiers have very strong counter-reconnaissance skills, but they are also all
Those who know how to observe, just like a good restaurant they opened in the local area, usually dozens of soldiers from the Cao Family Trading Company come to eat every day when the place is open, but now only ten soldiers come to eat every day.
Just a few people. At the beginning, they may feel that the business in their place is not very good, but as long as it continues, they will always feel something. In fact, it is not just their place, but also several other places around them.
This problem has also occurred in various places. At first, they were thinking that there was some new store that had taken away all the people here. Now after they met to discuss it, they found that this was not the case at all.
The thing is, the number of soldiers here has decreased a lot. They don’t know where they went. The superiors just asked them if there were any fewer soldiers here. As for where they went, they didn’t have that kind of situation.
For those of you who are capable, just tell them that there are really few soldiers here anyway. As for other things, we are beyond our control. We are not powerful, and these people will definitely not tell us where they are going.
Yes, we want to know but we don’t have the ability to ask them to confirm it, because the people above are not sure about such a report. If it is true, if we win, they can be said to be able to reward according to their merits.
Yes, but if it has no effect, this is all nonsense, and if it may be a scam by the Cao Family Trading Company, then don't talk about rewards, even you people may not be able to save their heads.
, this is such a society now. What you want to do is completely different from what you think. You must know that sometimes some things are not that simple. It is better to be honest, otherwise
A lot of bad things may happen in the future. They are all possible. They have really found a sure way. They can see not far away from their houses.
They could clearly see the base in the river and even the boats inside. They all clearly remembered that they could see fifteen huge warships here last month, but this month they can only see a few.
When it reaches eight ships, the remaining ones should be gone. In addition, the number of soldiers has really decreased, and they can analyze such things. When they report their analysis results,
The higher-ups also considered it for a long time before giving the reward to the highest level. After all, this matter was not a small matter, and in the end it was pretty good. The highest level chose to believe in these guys, so their armies began to move towards this person from all directions.
Several naval bases came over to see if it was as they said. Most of the troops here had been deployed.
Generally speaking, the defense of the naval base is very strong. It is defended by two brigades of marines. If necessary, some of the sailors can be recruited, but that was all in the past, from the Cao family
Since the trading bank began to implement the policy of encirclement and suppression of the rear, the number of troops here has also dropped by more than half. The main reason is that they all feel that although this place is the front line, the people of the Eastern Empire have been beaten to death by them.
After knowing each other, how could they come out to attack them out of boredom? That is simply unimaginable, and no one would believe it, but now this thing really just happened.
The people in the Cao Family Trading Company were also a little surprised at this time as they looked at the overwhelming troops outside. Why did these people choose to come here at this time? Although they were surprised, they did not panic. They all followed the usual requirements.
At this time, they made preliminary calculations. If they wanted to protect the three surrounding strongholds, it would be impossible. But even if they could not protect them, they would have to be a little more powerful. The three strongholds were built
It is very strong. As long as they want to attack, they will probably have to pay a price of hundreds of thousands of people. Each stronghold is composed of four bunkers, each with a row of nearly 200 people inside. They
There are underground passages for retreat. If you hold on well, these three strongholds can also allow the naval base to hold on for a day or two. Although there are not many people inside the naval base, there are only a few supplies.
There are plenty of them. If they really want to come in and try the cannon, they can really be fed and no one will say anything.
Before the enemy entered the war zone, some new soldiers started firing. It's no wonder they were so nervous. It was mainly because these people had no experience in the past. If they had experience, they wouldn't make such a move.
When something like this comes, for them, the thing before them makes them feel a little scared. They have only experienced war in those places. They don't know what real war is like. Cao Cao
The top executives of the Cao Family Commercial Bank also know how important these three naval bases are. If there is no more here, the people of the Eastern Empire will make this place theirs, although their weapons are not as powerful as those of the Cao Family Commercial Bank.
, but they are still very powerful. They can build their own fortifications in such a place, and they will also do some very powerful things here. The people of the Cao Family Trading Company want to start from here in the future.
It is not that easy to pass. Because the Eastern Empire is relatively powerful, the top management of the Cao Family Trading Company has always regarded the Eastern Empire as a relatively strong opponent of theirs. And because the focus is not here, so for
Some of the actions of the Eastern Empire were relatively tactful, and there were not many large-scale wars. Unexpectedly, the Eastern Empire launched such a strong attack this time when they were relatively weak.
The people of the Eastern Empire are well prepared and will never be fooled by the artillery of the Cao Family Trading Company in one round. As of now, they all know very well how to avoid the artillery.
Although it is hard for them to lie down and wait for death, it doesn't matter. If they are running around, the chance of death may be greater. Some veterans and the like just jump into a crater.
, many people think that this is an act of seeking death, but they all know that this is a normal thing, and no one will feel that there is anything wrong with doing such a thing. On the contrary, many people will think that such a thing is done.
It's very good. If you don't do that, then there is something wrong with your brain. Doing this is one of the best ways to survive. In the past, they only knew a little bit.
It was for defense, but now the counterattack is coming, that is, the powerful catapult. It is not that such ancient things did not exist before, but the current improvement is very powerful. Three tons of stone roar towards
A few kilometers away, this is a huge machine that requires more than five hundred people to push. There is also a very powerful magic shield outside. The people in the Eastern Empire know that the protective ability of this thing is very weak, so
They used a magic shield, but even so, in the end they might not be able to survive the fierce fire from the Cao Family Trading Company, but they thought it was worth it, as long as they could throw ten stones out, they would be
Victory, it doesn't matter even if this thing is bombed.
When the first huge stone flew over the naval base of the Cao Family Trading Company, the disease did not fall down. A cannonball fired just hit the stone. Although some scattered stones fell down and injured many people,
But it is much better than this big guy falling down, because the place where it is going to fall is where the warships of the Cao Family Trading Company are placed. If those things fall, there is no problem with a warship, then
The losses suffered by the Cao Family Trading Company were very great. The Eastern Empire did not send out such a trebuchet. Let’s also talk about their big guy. It can project once in five minutes, and its lifespan is only twenty times.
It costs an astonishing 7 million taels of silver per unit and requires 500 people to operate this huge thing. It is still very inconvenient to move, but it is undeniable that this thing is really very capable. If it is launched, these people can
