Fang Xiaoyu said: "You mean you have a lot of gold?"
Elena nodded and said, "More than that, we have many kinds of gems, among which we have many diamonds in human society, the most expensive diamonds in human society."
"Diamond?" Fang Xiaoyu suddenly thought of the words Xiaofeng said before that only needs one thousand tons of diamond rough stone.
Fang Xiaoyu hurriedly asked, "Do you have a lot of diamonds?"
Elena thought for a while and said, "I heard from my mother that our elves have about one hundred tons of diamonds. Dwarves are good at digging mineral deposits, and their diamond reserves should be more."
This sentence made Fang Xiaoyu's eyes lit up. If Xiaofeng could upgrade to Level 6, he could develop various machines in the aerospace era, and wouldn't he develop other planets. At that time, there were still as many resources as possible.
Thinking of this, Fang Xiaoyu could no longer hold back his inner excitement, and immediately asked Xiaofeng to scan it. He did find a lot of wealth in Linshan City where the elves lived. The diamond rough stones were indeed more than 100 tons, and other things such as rubies.
There are also many gems, and the gold is as high as 10,000 tons.
But the twin city palace where the dwarves live is very strange. There is no precious metal found in the underground palace there. Only in the deepest part of the ground, there is a foggy area, which cannot be seen through even the radar scan of the little wind. The wild continent
There are very few precious metals in the dwarf's residence, most of which are gold.
Of course, these things are not in a hurry. Fang Xiaoyu is now a little troubled. Just like all countries with an outward-oriented economy, the global economic crisis has begun to affect the industrial development of the Chinese territory.
Fortunately, the workers in China Territory are treated very well, so the purchasing power in the territory is still quite strong. With the domestic consumption of this live water, it will not cause too much loss to the industrial and commercial construction of China Territory. However, if there is no experience in commercial operation,
The mainland of Lanfang Empire, who had no experience in dealing with the economic crisis, suffered.
Due to the chaos of the civil war, the rule of the country has completely fallen into a state of stagnation of their own governance. The country's customs are paralyzed, causing foreign goods to be dumped directly through various ports into the Lanfang Empire without any tariffs. A large amount of cheap goods are allowed to be sold domestically through various ports.
The handicraft and mechanical processing industries have suffered huge impacts.
Such a bad economic situation caused both the Xia family and the Xiahou family to suffer heavy losses. The Xia family's army stagnated due to lack of funds. Fortunately, the cotton production in Loulan County was directly in line with China, because Fang Xiaoyu had decided to hoard a large amount of strategic materials.
, let all cotton spinning enterprises start construction with all their efforts without affecting the purchase quantity and price. In addition, with the affordable grain provided by China Ling, life there is still stable.
The Xia family's suspension of the attack made Cheng Yuhuan secretly relieved. Although the Cheng family has been preparing for many years and formed a large number of regular troops from the secretly formed civilian armies at the first time, although these troops have been trained for a long time, they have never been on the battlefield.
The army faced the Xia family army, which was full of veterans, and the result was imagined.
In actual combat, the Cheng family army often had a numerical advantage but retreated step by step. By the time Xia Yuhui stopped attacking, the entire Hudong County, plus Hongyuan in Xichuan County, Baoxing two prefectures had been defeated by the Xia family.
Occupated.
"Father, this won't work. We should take advantage of the tight funding of the Xia family, while strengthening defenses, and eating up the Xiahou family. As long as we have a few coastal counties, our source of funds will be greatly increased, and the troops can do it.
The territory of the Xia family was threatened from the flanks, so that they dared not attack south with all their might." Cheng Feng made his own suggestions to Cheng Yuhuan.
Cheng Wei, who was standing by, also said, "Yes, father. Taking down the three counties in the East China Sea will be very beneficial to our economy. At that time, we can establish a navy and even accept the Imperial Navy intact.
”
Cheng Yuhuan angrily scolded: "Silly, what's the use of asking for a navy? Is it a delivery to the navy assigned by the Chinese? The navy even the Saar Empire dare not easily provoke it. What's the use of having a navy? Then,
How can we defend the defensive front? If Xiahou Huan hadn't died last time, we had taken over the veterans of the Xiahou family's rebels and mixed into the recruits, we might not have been able to withstand the Xia family's attack."
Cheng Feng frowned and said, "Actually, the biggest threat now is not the Xia family, but the Chinese leader of the Fang family. Once we fight with the Xia family or the Xiahou family to a critical moment, we will be in trouble, don't forget
We have a grudge with the Fang family, especially Fang Xiaoyu."
Cheng Yuhuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Maybe we have to use foreign forces to restrain them."
Cheng Wei said angrily: "Last time I went to the Cossack Empire, their emperor was disdainful of the Chinese Emperor, saying it seemed that they could defeat the Chinese Emperor in one minute, but as soon as I asked them to send troops to the Chinese Emperor, they would
Reject it by insufficient military preparation.”
Cheng Yuhuan said: "You didn't see that all countries in the Western Continent are trying hard to expand their arms. I think the Cossack Empire is now all about the Yaman Empire, and we have no time to take care of the Eastern Continent. We still need to find other allies."
Cheng Feng said: "Does my father have any candidate?"
Cheng Yuhuan said: "How do you think of Japan?"
"Water? Those little guys?" Cheng Wei said in surprise: "They have been beaten up twice by the Chinese leader. Even if we invite them, will they dare to find the bad luck of the Chinese leader?"
Cheng Yuhuan said: "If there is another choice, will I contact those short guys? You see, the ASEAN has now included almost all the countries around the East Ocean. Japan has become an isolated island. If they don't fight to the death, in the future
I'm afraid there is no chance to fight the Chinese leader. Moreover, the Boston Empire is very close to Japan now. It is a big empire and has enough strength to help Japan."
Cheng Wei curled his lips and said, "I think it's better to forget it. The Boston Empire is nothing great. They can't even beat the St. Martin Empire, and they can't beat the Chinese leader? What a joke."
Cheng Feng said: "Brother, you can't say that. If the Chinese leader hadn't interfered last time, I'm afraid the St. Martin Empire had already destroyed the country, and the Boston Empire was still very powerful, especially in industry, which was much stronger than the Chinese leader.
”
Cheng Yuhuan thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's pull the Boston Empire into the water through Japan. Now, one more ally will have more strength."
"Haha, it's great, God is really helping me. Kato Jun, look at the Cheng family, the second largest family in the Lanfang Empire, actually invited us to attack the Chinese territory, and once it succeeded, it would allocate most of the Chinese territory to
We are so good." The chief of the Japanese Navy, Yamamoto, waved the letter in his hand excitedly.
The military command minister Kato Tomosaburo said, "Yamamoto, don't be too excited. You can first imagine why the Cheng family gave us such generous conditions. It's not that they have been beaten by the Xia family and want us to restrain them."
The Cheng family has no navy, and they are separated from the Chinese leader by thousands of mountains and rivers. What kind of joint combat can they fly over? We are thankless and help them to restrain the Chinese leader. In the end, we will not only not get any benefits.
, and will offend the Chinese leader.”
Yamamoto Honbuki shook his head and said, "No, their letter said that the Xia family's economy was severely impacted by foreign goods, and funds began to become tight, and they were no longer able to move south. Now they are preparing to destroy the Xiahou family and open up the "Hahou family" and "Hahou family" and "Havenly"
The Chinese leader had a land connection, and then we two companies jointly attacked the Chinese leader. Their current request was just to make us do some fake moves so that the Chinese leader could not be separated and care for them, so they could take the opportunity to annex the Xiahou family."
Tomosaburo Kato said: "I still think we should be more cautious. We have just recovered a little bit of vitality over the years, and the empire can no longer withstand failure."
Yamamoto Honbuki said: "Don't worry, we're just pretending this time. Even if they fail, they won't hurt a hair. If they really attack the Xiahou family, we can ignore the Chinese leader and let the Chinese leader free up his hands.
When fighting against the Cheng family, we can take the opportunity to attack and destroy the Hokkien people. At that time, the Cheng family will attract firepower for us."
"Haha, Yamamoto's clever plan is indeed a clever plan. Kato admires it. We will propose it at tomorrow's Big Five Conference." Kato Tomosaburo nodded with a smile. He thought that there was such a clever plan that would not suffer any loss on both ends, which was really foolproof.
Half a month later, the Japanese Navy began to dispatch all its troops to conduct military exercises on the high seas. After receiving this news, Liu Junguo immediately became alert. The Chinese Eastern Ocean Fleet began to stand by 24 hours a day, and all the troops near the coast were mobilized at any time.
When he was put into battle, at this moment, the Cheng family's offensive quietly began.
After a lot of preparations, the Cheng family army gathered in the border area suddenly crossed the border area, and an attacking force composed of eight armies and nearly 400,000 people rushed northward, occupying the entire Siyang Prefecture within ten days. The front vanguard
Go straight to Zhenjiang Prefecture.
The Xiahou family's army was reorganized on the previous remnants of defeated soldiers. The training has not been completed yet and its combat effectiveness is now very poor.
Although the Cheng family army is also from a civilian army, they have been trained for a long time and are filled with a large number of veterans from the garrison camps and imperial guards, and their combat effectiveness is much higher than that of the Xiahou family army.
Therefore, Xiahou Feng, who was already short of troops, had no good way except to lead the troops to resist step by step and divide his troops to defend the enemy.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Fang Xiaoyu suddenly released a message claiming that the Xiahou family used the land of the three counties in Donghai as collateral to lend to China Bank, so the land of the three counties is now the collateral of China Bank.
Fang Xiaoyu asked the Cheng family army to return to his garrison in his personal name, otherwise the armed forces of the Chinese consortium would severely punish forces that infringe on the interests of the consortium.
