Island in the clouds.

Duan Yu sat upright, with all the doctors, scholars and officials present.

He glanced at the crowds of people below. In fact, the real main ones were Guo Bairen, Qin Feiyu, Shui Sheng, Yuan Liulang, and finally added a pair of Xiao Jingfeng's brother and sister.

It was already the fourth year of Yunzhong, and the letters of notes from various countries had been sent.

At the latest, there will be a battle at the beginning of spring next year.

When everyone heard this news, they couldn't help but feel uneasy and a little upset.

But looking at Duan Yu, who was still moving at the top of the eight winds, gradually calmed down.

The appearance of the Lord Zhizhu in his grasp and the great battle trails before gave them great confidence.

"Haha, the Three Kingdoms Alliance, 20,000 navy?"

Duan Yu's chuckling voice came: "I am wondering if we want to pay tribute to us. Since there are three parties in a great country, who should we recognize as the sect leader?"

This smile is so slight and full of jokes.

"The Lord said it is!"

Guo Bairen stood up: "The enemy is up to 10,000, and they are unhappy. They are just a group of mobs who deliberately intimidate us! And our side is always in military service, which can mobilize tens of thousands of troops. If the other side dares to come, keep it safe and keep it to the point of no return!"

I have to say that his loud voice is very encouraging and has an inspiring effect.

“That’s right!”

Xiao Jingfeng also stood up: "Master, we are Donglin and Jinsha Townships, and we can serve the Master at any time, and we are also the two of us! We should wear armor and fulfill our obligations as vassals!"

Because they are the masters, they are also very active in order to protect their own territory.

After all, the lower the people can change their sects, and the higher the level, the harder it is to obtain the core rights of the enemy.

"The same is true for Hongyu Township!"

Ye Zhiyu immediately followed.

"Mohe Township is the same!"

"Kobayashi Village!"

"Wudong Village..."

The literati and officials expressed their opinions one after another, looking as if the people were willing to be able to do so.

Duan Yu was quite pleased to see this scene, because it represented an emerging interest-combining group that finally took shape.

‘But I guessed it was a little wrong at the beginning… These countries rushed over like red-eyed dogs. The gold mine was just a reason and a guide. I am afraid that there are hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land on Yunzhong Island…’

Although there are many desert islands in the East China Sea, what is cultivated is completely different.

For example, Guangling Island, in order to reclaim the island where the mountain gate is located, it has caused great damage to its vitality and has not yet recovered.

To truly cultivate the cultivation step by step, it is necessary to make Yunzhong Island's great governance three generations of people.

Duan Yu was desperately spending money and plundering Izumo to achieve such results.

Those who are just red-eyed and those who want to pick peaches... are also coming one after another.

"I have decided my intention!"

Duan Yu stood up, his voice as if he was fighting with ice jade, which made everyone below feel in his heart: "These navy must be annihilated to promote the power of my clouds!"

The establishment of a group must go through the tempering of blood and fire.

Yunzhong Island will never be able to gain a true foothold in the East China Sea without experiencing this battle!

Duan Yu saw it very clearly.

And this is also a good opportunity.

The Izumo Kingdom was just a paddle, with only Haisong and Dongsha, and no entire army was released.

After all, it is just an island country with a large county. If it truly sways the country, it will definitely not be worth the loss. Even if it wins, it will go bankrupt.

This time, the siege of the army is to the maximum extent. As long as you can win, there will be no next wave.

"Here!"

Seeing Duan Yu resolutely joining the battle, Guo Bairen and others took a deep breath and agreed loudly.

"Before the three armies move, food and grass will come first, what about the Chamber of Commerce?"

Duan Yu looked at Ye Zhiyu.

Once the war begins, the trade route will definitely have an impact. Even at this time, the port will be much deserted.

"Please rest assured that Yunzhong Island can be self-sufficient. In addition, merchant ships can be transformed into troop transport ships!" Ye Zhiyu said calmly.

"If it is defeated, countries may boycott our products. Have you ever thought about this issue?" Duan Yu asked again.

"Our focus can turn to mainland trade, where the market is vast and there is no entanglement with us..." Ye Zhiyu thought for a while and replied: "Apart from that, the East China Sea merchants do not have much sense of national borders. As long as they are profitable, they dare to do even if they are beheaded."

"Haha, that's the reason!"

Duan Yu laughed and said, "Guo Bairen, where are you?"

"I have counted the treasury and the military treasury... Fortunately, our side has successfully reclaimed Yunzhong Island. Even if the food is blocked, we can still be self-sufficient."

Guo Bairen said decisively.

"It's very good, you can consider using troops without any worries! Qin Feiyu, aquatic! How is our combat readiness?"

Duan Yu continued to call out.

"Yunzhongwei has been expanded to 3,000, and each village can produce 200 people!" Qin Feiyu said.

Although the literati and officials who were granted the vassal can act as a mighty man on their own territory, they also have military obligations to the lord.

If we really talk about it strictly, at least one warrior or mage would have to be produced in every village.

It is impossible at this time, but no matter how relaxed it, there is no problem with the twenty trained peasant soldiers in a village. One village and eight villages, plus the private soldiers of the township doctor, there are 200 people to base them.

This is a typical European medieval feudal aristocratic legion. The knights are very powerful, and the entourages below are OK, but the militias are losing their way.

Duan Yu was too lazy to mobilize these people: "The private soldiers of the doctors from the township of the people should guard the local area and assist in the defense of nearby villages!"

The most important thing he established was to win over extraordinary people.

Therefore, as long as the scholars and officials are drawn to participate in the battle, the most important combat powers are Guo Bairen and Xiao Jingfeng.

The Shuisheng stepped forward and walked: "In terms of the navy, even if the merchant ships were added, it would be expanded to up to 1,500 people!"

"Since that's the case, how do you think we should join the battle?" Duan Yu asked lightly without moving.

Qin Feiyu thought for a while: "If the enemy dares to go to the island, even if there are ten thousand people, I will be sure to lead three thousand soldiers to defeat them!"

Since breaking through the bottleneck of using martial arts to enter the Tao, this second brother has become more and more powerful. Duan Yu vaguely felt that his iron blood and evil spirit condensed, and there were signs of breaking through the second level of military strategist.

After all, Qin Feiyu's breakthrough was originally a shortcut. He used the energy of elite soldiers to penetrate the tendons and veins. There was no bottleneck in practicing to the second level of military strategist, and everything was natural.

It is a bit troublesome if you just want to break through the realm of military energy and magical powers.

However, Qin Feiyu is still very smart. He knows that he is not good at fighting in the water and plays his strengths and avoids his weaknesses.

If ten thousand sailors came to the land, they would definitely be defeated by three thousand army troops, which was almost no suspense.

But Duan Yu shook his head: "The enemy may not be so stupid, let alone... If the other party is allowed to land, will my Yunzhong Island have a great foundation and will not be a disaster? I want to defend the enemy outside the country!"

To be honest, he really didn't take this ten thousand navy seriously.

With the assistance of the Mermaid clan, it is equivalent to someone else's shady scenes, but my own home has opened a full map hanging, and the advantages have been magnified to the limit. What else can I do?

"Defend the enemy outside the national gates, do you take the initiative to attack?"

A glimmer flashed in Guo Bairen's eyes: "What the lord said is that we should not only take the initiative to attack, but also gather our high-level combat power and elite forces! The enemy's mobs have different hearts. If we can attack one side head-on, we will be able to curb its momentum and energy!"

This means it is like a person being beaten up by a group, and you can’t think of knocking over a group of people. Just identify an enemy and beat them hard. If you try to exert a strong momentum, the more timid ones may be deterred.

"Hundreds of people say this is very suitable for me!"

Duan Yu laughed: "What a 20,000 navy, in my opinion, is nothing but a native chicken and a treasure!"

During the naval battle, you can fight and leave, and the enemy's arrangements are all at the moment. It would be a waste of not using the method of wolves well.

What is the method of wolves?

This is like riding and shooting, the key is distance!

The enemy is powerful, but there is an opportunity to take advantage of it. I will eat a boat today and another boat tomorrow. I will slowly bleed and exhaust myself. I will not be unable to conquer 20,000 people.

Although a person can only eat one pound of meat a day, he can eat one hundred pounds of meat for 100 days and eat it slowly.

War is not a pile of numbers, but an adventure under various changes in situations.

The morale, food, training literacy, army quantity, and even a little inexplicable luck on both sides may cause the last bit of weight to tilt on the winning and losing balance.

Moreover, although this kind of tactic has high requirements for his own intelligence, Duan Yu is not afraid of the mermaid clan.

‘In addition to that… there is also a general who is good at planning… It’s a pity that although Hara Liuro is the best candidate, he lacks experience and his merits and prestige are not enough to convince the generals.’

Prestige and qualifications sound mysterious, but in fact, it is really not enough to lack it.
