Chapter 1417 Heading to Novice Village
On the morning of August 4th, the fourteenth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao, Kong Ming, Liu Qianhui, Su Yan, and Mo Yangqiao, escorted by 200 fifth-rank court guards, rushed to the civilian pier outside the fisherman's village at 5 o'clock. At half past one, they boarded the super warship prepared by the navy. Before 6 o'clock, the super warship of the navy lifted anchor and set sail, heading for Wucheng Port in the south of the Eastern Continent.
At 3:00 p.m. on August 5, the 14th year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao and others landed at Wucheng Port, quickly transferred to a steam train, and roared all the way north.
At noon on August 7, the 14th year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao, Kong Ming, Liu Qianhui, Su Yan, Mo Yangqiao and the soldiers of the imperial guards got off the steam train. Start to set foot on the wasteland and rush towards Shayuanguan, Xinshou Village in Gillette Province.
After riding on the horse and starting the journey, Kong Ming also opened up his chatter box. Along the way, he kept telling Qu Mao what he saw and what he thought when he came to the Eastern Continent.
From February to June in the fourteenth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao visited almost all the independent territories of Emperor Yi's territory on the Eastern Continent, and he was still accompanied by Su Yan and Mo Yangqiao. The change is not surprising, and the change Kong Ming mentioned actually does not have any feelings for Qu Mao.
But Qu Mao thought about it again: Although he, Su Yan and Mo Yangqiao had already read it, Liu Qianhui and Kong Ming hadn't. Especially Kong Ming, who has been immersed in mechanical research in the holy land, has not come for a long time. The East Continent has turned around, so Kong Ming's feelings are still quite real.
Therefore, Qu Mao didn't interrupt Kong Ming's rambling, and even slowed down his anxious pace gradually, so that Kong Ming could see more clearly and carefully.
Kong Ming was also sensitive to the changes in Qu Mao, and asked: "My lord, the speed of the march seems to have slowed down? Did the subordinates affect you, my lord?"
Qu Mao smiled wryly and said: "Kong Ming, you can't always stay in the Mechanical Research Institute and immerse yourself in inventions and creations. With your identity and status in our Yidi territory, I think you need to go to independent territories to inspect and inspect work frequently.
There is no rush to select the Chosen players and prisoners of war to serve as the lords of the branches of the Southern Continent, the Central Continent, and the Northern Continent. Take your time and ask the local officials if you don’t understand. "
Kong Ming shook his goose feather fan, glanced at the surrounding wasteland, and rode on his horse and said, "My lord, you are right, my subordinates will pay attention to this issue in the future, and will go to the independent territories of the Eastern Continent for a week to inspect every three months." About two weeks.
Now, it’s all wasteland, and our officials didn’t arrange to come here, so if you have to hurry, let’s hurry. "
Qu Mao said with a smile: "Kong Ming, then we have agreed so happily, I believe you will have different opinions every time you inspect, and this will also help you better clarify the development direction of our Yidi territory."
Kong Ming thought for a while, looked to the east, and said: "My lord, after selecting three God-chosen player prisoners of war as the lords of the branch territory, or we will go through the desert on the return journey, from the direction of Shacheng in the province of Gillette. go back.
The subordinates really want to see the degree of desert transformation and the industrialization process of Sand City, and haven't seen it for a long time. "
Qu Mao nodded and said, "Yes, I happen to have the same idea.
After we select the God of Choice player prisoners of war to serve as the lords of the branch territory, we will go through the desert from the southeast of Shayuan Pass and go directly to Shacheng in Gillette Province. By the way, we will show the chosen God of Player player prisoners of war our Yidi territory Super industrialization level.
The transformation results in the desert may also bring them some ideas for transforming the natural environment of the branch territories. After all, Nanyan City in the Southern Continent and Beiju City in the Northern Continent also belong to extremely harsh natural environments. "
Su Yan beckoned to an officer of the fifth-rank palace guard, and asked, "How far is this from Shayuan Pass in Xinshou Village? How long will we have to march to get there?"
The officer took out the map and glanced at it, and said, "Lord Su Yan, if we don't camp at night, we will arrive at Shayuan Pass at about 11:00 am on August 8; Arrived at Shayuan Pass at around 5:00 p.m. on August 8."
Hearing the officer's words, Qu Mao said, "Naturally, we still have to rest at night. It doesn't matter if we go later, we should leave more time for the prisoners of the chosen players in Xinshou Village to prepare. After all, those prisoners of war chosen by the chosen players are locked up in Xinshou Village. It has been four or five years, and their life is not particularly good.
If they all come up with it, I'm afraid it will be quite difficult for us to select. "
The officer of the Imperial Guard bowed his hands and said, "Yes, my lord! After arriving there, the officer of the garrison stationed there will definitely report to you in advance about the preparations of the prisoners of the God of Choice players. Please don't worry, my lord."
Qu Mao nodded. It was completely unnecessary to bring 200 fifth-tier court guards with him on the march.
Now Emperor Yi's territory almost completely occupies the entire Eastern Continent, and there is no hostile force other than the Duke of Pengda. Qu Mao is extremely assured of the safety of this trip. Even the only enemy, the Duke of Pengda, is now being defeated by Yi. The army of the imperial territory was tightly besieged within its own territory, and it was almost impossible to even go out of the country.
With the army, navy, magic army, garrison army and firearms army in Yidi's territory encircling the Principality of Pengda, the Principality of Pengda simply couldn't spare enough energy to disrupt Qu Mao's schedule, let alone Qu Mao and the other five. The Pengda Principality didn't even know about the news of going to Xinshou Village.
Kong Ming's interest in the Eastern Continent made Qu Mao dispel the idea of rushing on the road, even though the area where the five of them walk is now a wasteland.
At 5:00 pm on August 10, the 14th year of Tianxuan, two days later than originally planned, Qu Mao and other five talents, under the **** of 200 fifth-rank court guards, arrived in the northwest of Gillette Province, Tassel Empire, the territory of Emperor Yi. Shayuanguan, a novice village on the edge of the desert.
The reason why there was a two-day delay was mainly because Qu Mao carried out a hunting activity in the wasteland, which delayed a full two days.
In fact, hunting in the wilderness is extremely boring. The 200 fifth-rank palace guards brought out by Qu Mao and other five people from the Holy Land of Emperor Yi were all equipped with pistols and grenades, and there were no large wild animals in the wilderness. The biggest is nothing more than the prairie wolf.
Use pistols and grenades to deal with prairie wolves, and the fire suppression should not be too strong.
With a distance of 100 meters, it is basically possible to knock down a wolf with one shot, not to mention that most of the hunting results of Qu Mao and others are small animals such as rabbits.
But everyone is not in a hurry, Qu Mao is willing to hunt, and Kong Ming, Liu Qianhui, Su Yan and Mo Yangqiao will naturally accompany him.
