After Ye Mo met with Yue Xi'er, he returned to Ye's Fairy Village.
Early the next morning, he and Chang Fei came to the dock. Inside the dock, shipwrights were busy laying the keel of the light-armored warship.
When Mo Yun saw Ye Mo coming, he quickly came out with two apprentices.
"Lord City Lord, the production at the shipyard has returned to normal. It was only delayed for two days and will not affect the delivery of seagoing ships this month."
After saluting Ye Mo, Mo Yun said with a relaxed expression.
Although due to the invasion of the Yuezhi Alliance, the shipwrights in the shipyard all returned to Xiancun to take refuge, and work was temporarily suspended for a few days. However, the shipwrights in the shipyard are all skilled workers, and the progress in the past few days can still be made up.
Ye Mo nodded and said to Mo Yun: "Mo Yun, if we don't increase manpower, how many warships can we increase the production of?"
"Increase production?"
Mo Yun was slightly startled.
Currently, the shipyard in Ye Village has the task of building three light-armored warships every month. However, the construction capacity is still sufficient, and it can be improved by working hard.
Because Ye Village's main development direction is the Spirit Eagle Air Cavalry, which dominates the sky. It doesn't pay much attention to sea battles, and there is no need for so many warships.
If it weren't for the need to use sea ships to transport supplies, Ye Village would have to maintain a certain number of light-armored warships, otherwise building one every month would be enough.
Mo Yun realized that Ye Mo was planning to increase the production of warships.
He immediately said with great joy: "Lord City Lord, my subordinates Hao Yan and Li Zhao have long been able to take charge of the construction of a warship alone.
Many shipwrights have broken through their Qi training period and increased their production to five or six ships per month, which is no problem at all. The Lord of the City only needs to provide enough spiritual wood.
On the other hand, the dock needs to be expanded. This is not difficult. This natural dock has a wide area and only needs to expand the defense of the spiritual wood in the water for a certain distance..."
After hearing this, Ye Mo pondered, "Can we only increase it to five ships per month?"
"We can only reach this speed now. After all, including me, there are only three people who can take charge alone. We can only expand the scale after a few new monks slowly improve."
"Well, immediately arrange for people to expand the shipyard and increase production as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, City Lord, there will be absolutely no problem."
Mo Yun looked excited and assured.
If the dockyard builds more ships, it also has more benefits.
However, he was a little confused, "Lord City Lord, Xiancun still wants to expand the size of the warships?" He knew that Ye Mo had no plans to continue to expand the warships before.
Ye Mo smiled when he heard this, "Sell it to the Yuezhi Alliance shipyard to increase production, and the salary of all shipwrights will also be increased accordingly."
Mo Yun was immediately overjoyed, "Thank you, Lord City Lord"
At this time, an Immortal Guard came in a hurry and reported to Ye Mo, "Sir, City Lord, several City Lords are here to visit and are already waiting at the City Lord's Mansion."
"oh?"
Ye Mo was stunned for a moment, and then said to Chang Fei beside him, "Old Chang, you will make arrangements for the dock. I will go over and take a look."
During these days, the city lord of Xiaoxian Village kept coming to visit and expressed his willingness to join the Spirit Valley Alliance to Ye Mo.
In the Southern District Alliance, all the city lords gathered in the meeting hall of the alliance leader Lu's Fairy Village.
All the city lords were shocked by the Moon Alliance's hasty retreat.
"The Yuezhi Alliance failed to capture Ye's Fairy Village and was forced to retreat just one day."
"Yes, when they went out with a hundred warships, they were in disgrace. One of the five powerful alliance forces was so unbearable. If I had known this, why would they persist to the end after attacking Ye Village?
Until the village surrenders. It’s so embarrassing to be so at a loss of ground.”
"I've said it before, how can we let women be the core of the alliance? Those people in the Yuezhi Alliance are really messing around...
"Ye's Fairy Village forced the Yue's Alliance to retreat and has become the sixth strongest force in the entire sea area. I'm afraid no one dares to underestimate Ye's Fairy Village."
"Yes, Ye's Fairy Village has now become the sixth force in the sea area."
The city lords were talking about everything.
"Actually, the battle between the Yuezhi Alliance and Ye Village is not the key to the situation and there is nothing to comment on."
Lu Yangsheng glanced at the city lords and said calmly: "I am very disappointed with Lou Jiejun. He didn't take the opportunity to attack the Yuezhi Alliance. Our plan to dig a hole for him to jump out of was in vain."
"exactly"
"It is estimated that the battle between Yuezhi and Yecun lasted less than two days. It was too short and the Lou clan alliance failed to seize this fleeting opportunity."
Many city lords showed disappointment.
Originally, they encouraged Lou Jiejun to fight against the Yuezhi Alliance and dig a big hole, but Lou Jiejun didn't want to jump.
Now that the alliances of several major fairy villages have become balanced, it will not be so easy to find better opportunities.
West District Deng's Alliance, Deng's Fairy Village.
The study room of the City Lord's Mansion is extremely simple. Apart from tables and chairs, there is only a weapons shelf, on which are placed pieces of rusty ancient weapons, which are spiritual weapons salvaged from ancient shipwrecks.
Some fine works are collected in this study.
"Interestingly, Ye Mo once robbed several soul boxes in the battle of the ancient shipwreck. Unexpectedly, he actually forced the Yuezhi to retreat, established a foothold in the hinterland of the Yuezhi Alliance, and became famous. He is indeed not an ordinary person. One of the five major alliances
In addition, with the addition of the sixth strongest fairy village, the situation in the Aolai Islands may become even more complicated."
A burly monk with a beard, leaning on a spiritual wood chair without any ornaments, looked at a piece of information in his hand about the Yuezhi Alliance's withdrawal of troops, showing surprise.
Although his real age is only in his twenties, he looks very mature. People who don't know may even think that he is in his thirties.
Next to him, an old man in gray in his fifties smiled bitterly when he heard Deng Qiangqiang talking to himself.
This is the temperament of the young master. The more challenging he is, the more excited he becomes.
Originally, the young master had the hope of directly inheriting the family's fairy city, but he gave up his qualifications and entered the fairy academy to win the qualifications of city lord, and then came here to open up wasteland.
Perhaps, with the existence of people like Lord Ye, the young master can have more fighting spirit.
This is also a good thing
The old man in gray clothes thought secretly in his heart.
North of Aolai Islands.
In the dark night, in a deserted sea area, a fleet of dozens of warships is heading southeast at full speed. The southeast direction of the northern sea happens to be the East District.
This was a clandestine operation, and the warships traveled late at night to avoid exposing their whereabouts.
A blue message bird fluttered a few times and landed on one of the warships. The leader of the Northern District Alliance, Shi Hanhai, was standing at the bow of the ship with his hands behind his back.
"What, the Yuezhi Alliance has already retreated less than a day after taking action?"
Shi Hanhai scanned the information, a look of shock and disappointment flashed across his face.
The results of his operation are closely related to the Yuezhi Alliance's attack on Ye's Fairy Village.
Once the Yuezhi Alliance's hundreds of warships are fighting to the death with Ye's Fairy Village, the Lou's Alliance will dispatch hundreds of warships, like a sharp blade, piercing into the hinterland of the Yuezhi Alliance.
As a result, the Yuezhi Alliance was faced with enemies from both sides.
The Yuezhi Alliance has a total of more than 200 warships, of which 100 warships are going to besiege Ye's Fairy Village, while the other 100 warships need to be defended. If the Lou Clan Alliance is contained, there will be no remaining defensive force.
The Northern Alliance, led by Shi Hanhai, took the opportunity to sneak attack on the Yuezhi Alliance at this time. With only a few warships, it easily completely destroyed the defenseless Yuezhi Alliance.
Shi Hanhai naturally wished that Yue Xi'er and Ye's Fairy Village would fight for a few more days, the longer the better.
"Young Master, what should we do? If the Yuezhi Alliance doesn't fight Yecun, they will have hundreds of warships in their hands, which is enough to resist us. Should we return the way we came, or should we continue going?
East End?”
A confidant monk said in a deep voice.
"City Lord Lou, he is more anxious to defeat the Yuezhi than we are, and he will definitely not change his plan to attack the Yuezhi Alliance. Regardless of whether Yue Xi'er can return to defense in time, we must proceed according to the original plan."
Shi Hanhai thought for a moment, regained his composure, and said.
"Suppress this news for the time being. Don't let the people below know about it. Urge the fleet to speed up and strive to arrive at the scheduled location as early as possible. Prepare for a tough battle with the Yuezhi Alliance."
The central area of Aolai Islands and the sea area bordering the eastern area.
The Lou Clan Alliance has a large eastern outpost naval camp here. A group of warships from the Lou Clan Alliance have gathered here, hoarding a large amount of supplies in preparation for attacking the Yuezhi Alliance.
Fairy Village, Study Room.
Lou Jiejun sat on a luxurious and soft monster leather chair, but he was not in the mood to enjoy it at all.
He picked up a copy of the latest information on the war situation between the Yue clan and the Ye clan, and read it carefully several times, his face becoming increasingly gloomy.
"The Yuezhi Alliance dispatched hundreds of warships. This is definitely not because the Yuezhi Alliance is not strong enough. The Eagle Riders of Ye's Fairy Village are really strong. I'm afraid it will be the same result if I replace it with other fairy village alliances. It's really unexpected."
Lou Jiejun put down the information, his handsome face full of gloom.
The green-shirted old man held some other scattered information in his hand and frowned: "Young Master, according to the intelligence, this time the Ye's Eagle Cavalry raided the rear of the Yuezhi Alliance and burned twenty or thirty islands, lumber camps, and mines.
The battlefield was destroyed and hundreds of people were captured, causing great losses to the Moon Alliance. Preliminary estimates have reached tens of thousands of spiritual stones. This was just a one-day air raid."
"Loss of tens of thousands of spiritual stones?"
Lou Jiejun's face turned darker and he clenched his fists, "Yue Xi'er really suffered a big loss and had to retreat."
"Ye's Eagle Cavalry is so powerful, should we also form an aerial cavalry to compete with Ye Mo?"
The old man in green shirt looked at Lou Jiejun's face and suggested cautiously.
"It is not easy to form an aerial cavalry. To build fifty eagle cavalry, the total initial cost is more than 200,000. Ye Mo will definitely continue to expand the number of aerial cavalry, so we will have to invest more. Who will pay for this huge amount?
cost?!"
"How about dividing it among the fairy villages in the alliance?"
"Apportionment? That's an investment of tens of thousands of spiritual stones, and it's only investment. There will be no return at all in the short term. Each fairy village has already spent a lot of financial resources in other aspects, and they are all in a tight situation. The city lords in the alliance will definitely feel strongly
be opposed to
We won’t fight Ye Mo for a while, so we don’t need to form an air cavalry yet. Let’s talk about Yue Xi’er. She retreated so quickly. The warships from City Lord Shi have not yet reached the East District, right? Yue Xi’er herself
Sitting in command, he is afraid that it will be difficult for him to successfully attack."
Lou Jiejun shook his head and rejected the proposal.
Even though Lou's Fairy Village is the No. 1 fairy village in Aolai, it has already invested heavily in other important development directions. Lou's just wants to build a huge warship fleet, all kinds of naval battle spirit armor, monk wages
, it consumes a lot of financial resources, and there is not much remaining financial resources.
Lou's Fairy Village had not planned to invest in the Spirit Eagle before.
If you want to raise an additional eagle rider, it will be a big burden.
I'm afraid that Lou's Fairy Village will also feel a headache for this extra expense, let alone other fairy villages. If those city lords squeeze out tens of thousands of spiritual stones to buy the spiritual eagle, I'm afraid they will all scold them.
"Yue Xi'er was able to retreat decisively despite losing face, and her decisiveness was extraordinary. And Ye Mo's intentions are even more difficult to fathom. His current strength has clearly become the sixth strongest force in the Aolai Sea.
If this child is not contained, he will become a serious problem sooner or later.
However, we must first concentrate our strength to defeat the Yuezhi Alliance. Then we can form aerial cavalry to completely besiege Ye's Fairy Village and not allow it to continue to grow and grow."
