Chapter 1896 The situation of another continent can be acted upon
The drawing is as big as a table, marked with mountains, rivers, oceans, and distribution of power.
This picture was drawn by Deli in seven days, five or six days later than Jiang Xingchen expected, but its detail was far beyond expectations, making Jiang Xingchen feel like he was a treasure.
There are two major forces marked on this picture, one of which is the Asian Empire in the south and the city-state of Noya to the north. From the perspective of size, the two forces are similar, but the systems of the two sides are very different. The city-state of Noya is an alliance composed of hundreds of independent cities of all sizes. The largest force is called Noya, and the alliance was also promoted by Noya more than two hundred years ago.
There is a sea called Dreaming between the two major forces. On the east side of the two continents in the north and south, there are countless islands scattered on the ocean, with many forces among them, and pirates are also quite rampant.
Of course, Deli could not have drawn all the major forces and terrain distributions, but the main forces and the scope of jurisdiction, famous rivers and mountains are basically all there. The accuracy is definitely not accurate, but Jiang Xingchen does not require accuracy. He only needs to know which forces are roughly in those directions.
Seeing Jiang Xingchen lying on the table like a treasure, watching carefully, Deli couldn't help but feel a little proud, slightly raised her chin, and her snow-white and slender neck looked like a swan, which seemed to be asking Jiang Xingchen to praise herself quickly.
Leo's mood was much more relaxed at this time. He had been worried about the past seven days, fearing that the map would not satisfy Jiang Xingchen.
After watching for a while, Jiang Xingchen raised his head and said to Leo: "It seems we can have a good talk. I wonder if you are interested in being my agent?"
"Ah?" Leo couldn't understand at all and looked at Jiang Xingchen with a confused look on his face.
Jiang Xingchen didn't say much, laughed and put away the map, greeted the father and daughter to sit down, and started a new round of exchanges.
In the days that followed, Jiang Xingchen had to talk to Leo and Deli for a long time almost every day. They were also trying to understand each other's words and gestures.
The effect of learning from each other every day is significant. From the beginning of the picture communication to most gestures, after three months, they can already communicate with some simple topics in language. Delly has a stronger understanding ability and can speak the mainland dialect in a decent manner.
After more than three months of exchange, Jiang Xingchen also had a general understanding of the Western continent. In any place, the two major forces could not coexist peacefully. In fact, the city-state of Nuya was united to fight against the Asian Empire.
Although the Noya city-states are loosely organized and they even fight each other. Small countries change their ownership or change of dynasties often happen. However, as long as there is a large-scale conflict with the Asian Empire, all city-states will put aside their grudges and deal with Asian Empire. Because they know that once the Noya city-state fails, they will be swallowed up by the Asian Empire and will not be left behind. Therefore, in many years of struggles, Noya is not at a disadvantage.
But five years ago, the strength of the West Asian Empire suddenly improved by leaps and bounds and developed rapidly in all aspects. Especially in terms of weapons, the powerful killing weapon such as cannons and grenades suddenly made Nuya City-state unable to raise its head.
Later, Yaxi's ships also made great progress, and the huge natural barrier of the sea lost its effect. Four years ago, Yaxi landed on the Noya City State and captured nearly half of the city in one breath. It had no power to fight back against the Noya City State.
Later, if the spy sent in the early years had not played a decisive role and stole the method of making cannons and grenades, the city-state of Nooya would have been destroyed.
Even now, the city-state of Nuya is equipped with a large number of weapons such as cannons and grenades, but in the battle with the Asian Empire, the city-state of Nuya is still at an absolute disadvantage.
Leo was originally a merchant of the Asian Empire, but he discovered a crystal mine on an island overseas. Once the news spread, the empire would come first and propose cooperation to develop it on the grounds of protection. It would be nice to leave some soup for himself.
That's why he was going to leave the Asia Empire and run to the city-state of Nuya, which was relatively free. Although he had to lose money, it was impossible for him to not even drink soup.
After more than three months of exchange, Jiang Xingchen finally got a rough understanding of the situation in the Western Continent. From the description, the enemy should be the Kingdom of Asia. This can be seen from the rapid advancement of the opponent's technology five years ago. It must be caused by the arrival of the An family's prince.
After learning about the situation in the Western continent, Jiang Xingchen proposed to let Leo be an agent, and he gave him all the help he could think of, including force and money. As for the matter of the colorful crystal mineral vein, Jiang Xingchen didn't even mention it.
Leo didn't even think about it, so he nodded and agreed. Where can I find such a good thing? With Jiang Xingchen's help, he believed that he would soon gain a foothold in Nuya City. What he did was just an agent. Just stand up for what he had. Jiang Xingchen would not put him in any danger.
During the three months, Jiang Xingchen did not only ask Leo. The pirate leader was named Mike. He also often went to communicate and inquire about the offshore forces and the distribution of pirates. At the same time, he also asked why he didn't know the location behind the Sea of Death!
Mike told Jiang Xingchen that the origin of the name of the Sea of Death was because there were too many ships and sailors buried there. It is said that there would suddenly roll up huge waves in the absence of wind. When the ship was sailing normally, it would be dragged into the seabed by invisible forces, and the ship would disappear inexplicably. As a fleet of ships walked, there would be fewer ships, and no one knew that they were missing.
So there are now no pirates, and it is said that it is the place where the devil lives.
After hearing this, Jiang Xingchen was curious and wondered whether he would go to see the Sea of Death after calming down Ola.
These days, the pirates and sailors have also changed their appearance. At first, they were pessimistic about their future destiny, but after a period of delicious food, drink and treat, they realized that they might not be as bad as they imagined.
As time goes on, they find that there are more and more magical places in this fleet. For example, they can eat fresh vegetables every day and take a bath every day, which is almost unimaginable on the way to the ocean. The monsters following the fleet include not only the skua in the sky, but also the giants in the sea. When they first saw the killer whales, their eyes almost flew out.
After three months of sailing, Jiang Xingchen's fleet had reached the place where the pursuit battle occurred. Arriving here means that he had walked half of the distance. During this period, Wang Heng's vanguard fleet surpassed them and drove forward again, and had already begun sailing westward.
At the same time, as far away from the continent where they had left four months ago, the man in silver robe appeared in the palace of the imperial capital of the Qiankun Empire, with a smile on his face and whispered: "The time has come, you can take action!" (To be continued.)
