Chapter 425

Silver Moon Bay.

Huge ports, hordes of magical ocean going ships come and go, bringing a huge amount of goods and materials, food, slaves, horses, armor and weapons, and so on.

Now, in addition to the magic guild, nearly half of the world's top 100 chamber of Commerce organizations in the world have business relations with Starwood kingdom. Therefore, no matter what resources Qin Feng needs, it will be easier to meet them, as long as he can pay for the goods in full.

Although the total amount of goods and materials transported each month was astonishing, Qin Feng was still a little worried and tried to increase the various reserves of the kingdom. At present, mityin can still exchange things. When the country becomes bigger and bigger and starts to cause tension among those big powers, a comprehensive trade embargo is completely possible. Therefore, some things have to be prepared for the rainy days now, and have already made plans.

“…… Your majesty, the Kingdom's grain reserves have been able to meet the needs of all the people for three years. "

in the prosperous market near the port, Qin Feng was wandering around in casual clothes. The new cabinet Prime Minister vilam said," but in your next financial year's purchase plan, grain import is still a key item. Is it necessary to buy so many? There are also young slaves, who have so far purchased nearly two million people. I think they should be enough. "

He thinks that the Kingdom has spent too much in these two areas, which may affect the investment of other projects. Therefore, he has this question. Since the Kingdom has not been established long ago, there are still many places that need to spend a lot of money, so we need to consider it comprehensively.

"Not enough, far from it!"

Qin Feng flatly rejected his idea and said, "our kingdom will have at least one million standing armies in the future, which are all built according to the standards of elite legions, and they will have to constantly fight for foreign countries and open up new territories. How long do you think this grain reserve can last

"As for the slaves, the infrastructure in the kingdom is extremely backward, not to mention the cities and mines. There are not even a few decent roads. There are more places to build. Even if there are more slaves, I can find enough work for them."

"As for the financial problem, you don't have to worry. The kingdom will not be short of money in this respect."

"Good OK

Villham nodded in agreement. In fact, he also knows that the climate in Northern Xinjiang is cold and the environment is bad, and there are not many places for planting. Therefore, the annual grain output is quite limited. If the country is established, it will have to rely on imports on a large scale.

This is also one of the fundamental reasons why there has been no great power in Northeast China for thousands of years. The cost of maintaining political power is too high. As a result, many big forces finally gave up the layout here after weighing.

Of course, your majesty is the founder of the country. With an ambitious army of one million scale, as well as the logistics force serving this army, millions of people just eat and don't work. They are busy fighting or preparing for war every day. The consumption is really amazing.

Qin Feng continued to roam. This place was originally a small city with limited population and backward facilities. It was not until the Kingdom's army occupied this place that it developed rapidly under its own leadership and investment.

There is nothing like the opportunity to make a fortune that motivates human beings, no matter in any world. Xingshan Kingdom has been recruiting talents from all walks of life all the year round. As a result, thousands of people come from all over the mainland every day.

Naturally, there were spies from many countries. Of course, Qin Feng didn't care much. The system of the kingdom was there. Even spies had to work for the kingdom to get into the system. The middle and high-level officials are basically trained by him. Naturally, they don't have to worry too much.

After a stroll along the spacious street, Qin Feng walked into an equipment store at will, and the chubby shop owner immediately came to greet him warmly.

The scale of the store is quite large. There are a lot of swords, axes and shields on the weapon rack. The cold metal awn and the enchanting brilliance complement each other. Undoubtedly, they are high-quality goods.

Qin Feng took down a double handed Epee, gently waved it for several times, and said with satisfaction, "it's a good thing. How long has your shop been open? How's business? "

The boss looked respectful and said with a smile: "not long ago, less than four months ago, dozens of people in our shop have migrated from the bloman empire. I have a relative who is in charge of the magic wings fire dragon chamber of Commerce. He said that the prospect of this place is good, and suggested that I move here, and I will come here."

He didn't know the identity of Qin Feng, but he could lift a double handed sword with a weight of more than 100 kilograms, which could never be done by ordinary people. Therefore, he gave a more detailed answer.

There are many skilled craftsmen and apprentices in the shop, as well as four intermediate level magicians in charge of enchanting process. There are also special magic array and alchemy processing equipment in the backyard. Generally speaking, those who can afford to open such an equipment shop belong to the class of rich businessmen.

Qin Feng asked a few more questions, and then packed up the best equipment in the store and left with a bag of gold coins, which made the boss laugh.

"I will send someone to ask him if he is interested in expanding the scale of his business."On the street, Qin Feng said to vilam: "the Kingdom has a great demand for high-quality ordnance. You might as well give some orders to such businessmen who come from afar. As long as the quality meets the standards, many materials can be purchased from the people."

Willam agreed to come down, thought about it and asked, "does your majesty intend to use the army again?"

Br > "> after the cold weather in spring and summer, some goods and materials can not be transported in the north of Qinhai Bay because of the cold weather in spring and summer

"Therefore, I think that if we push along the coastline for hundreds of kilometers to the South and grab some excellent ice free ports, the trade and transportation in the future will be much more convenient, and our naval fleet needs better bases for stationing and training."

A map of the south of the Kingdom appeared in vilam's mind. A pile of principalities and kingdoms gathered here. It was no surprise that they were swept away by the military strength of Starwood kingdom.

However, the rapid expansion of the Starwood Kingdom has caused the fear and anxiety of many small and medium-sized forces in the surrounding areas. Although these countries are not strong in their own strength, they can at least unite to protect themselves, and they are not without backing, such as the churches of gods.

"Sire, I'm afraid the battle will not be easy."

Vilam frowned and said that he was a senior member of the kingdom who knew the inside story. Last time Luoji, the son of the God of war church, visited Qin Feng, but did not get the expected reply. Therefore, the church was very dissatisfied with Qin Feng.

Although under the influence of the magic guild, Qin Feng's neutral attitude barely won their approval, but it doesn't mean that they are dead hearted.

Therefore, in recent months, these small countries in the South have been secretly expanding their troops and preparing for war, and part of the Church of God of war has secretly entered this area and changed into mercenaries. Why not.

Therefore, once Qin Feng decided to send troops, it would be the first hard and vicious battle since the state of Xingshan king. The army of the God of war church is not a soft persimmon. To some extent, they are one of the most Elite Corps in the human camp. The quality, morale, equipment and training level of the soldiers are of first-class level.

Qin Feng chin first said: "I know this clearly, so I will lead the army myself in this war, but I want to see what they have."

After the decision had been made, the Kingdom's war machine was suddenly activated again, the combat readiness level of the border was upgraded, officers returned to camp after their vacation, a large number of logistics materials began to be transported by slaves, and groups of troops were constantly assembled at the southern border.

Naturally, such a large-scale military operation could not be concealed from the eyes and ears of all parties. The southern countries soon learned about the trend of the Starwood Kingdom and became more and more nervous.

The God of war church and other churches did not express their views on the surface. However, in a short period of half a month, many large-scale mercenaries entered the southern countries. Their equipment was extremely excellent, and there were many strong ones. Their real identity was unknown.

Qin Feng was aware of this. Although the Kingdom's intelligence system was not perfect, many secret organizations engaged in intelligence trading on the mainland sent various messages from the southern countries in a timely and efficient manner under his style of being a local tyrant who spared no money.

“…… Led by the Church of God of war, a total of five gods' churches participated. Among them, the war God Church secretly dispatched up to 20000 troops, and there was a group of pastors and theocracies with a scale of about 1000, and five legendary strong men. "

In Wang's study, Huan Ling was reporting: "in addition, the churches of several other gods have sent troops of different numbers, totaling more than 50000 people, 13 legendary strong men, 150000 troops jointly sent by southern countries, and many unknown legendary strong men participated in the war..."

The officials in the study looked dignified. The current situation is indeed somewhat unfavorable to the kingdom. If the war is not ideal, more churches and surrounding countries will rush forward one after another, just like a group of bloodthirsty wolves, tearing the newly born kingdom into pieces.

Qin Feng disapproved and said, "in this case, prepare for the war. I will lead the army to the front tomorrow, and the affairs of the Wangdu city will depend on your great efforts."

The ministers were awe inspiring. Although he was young, his great prestige in the kingdom was irresistible. No one could underestimate the man who could establish his country by his own strength.

The next day, the main force of the Kingdom's army set out at 150000. In addition to the troops arrived at the early stage and the border guard forces, the Xingshan Kingdom sent out 250000 troops, roughly equal to the southern countries.

Of course, in the sky beyond people's sight, several well camouflaged reconnaissance satellites have already targeted the southern border, and unmanned reconnaissance aircraft disguised as various flying Warcraft have already spread all over the southern countries. Qin Feng will be aware of any troop movements of more than 1000 people in size.

The war forms of the main world are that the troops and horses are not moved and the intelligence is first. To be found means to be destroyed. In the world of Xingmeng, there may not be such exaggeration, but it is self-evident that the mastery of almost absolute battlefield information superiority has an impact on the whole war situation.

Therefore, from the very beginning, the fate of the Allied forces of the southern countries has determined most of them.On the plain where the cold wind howled, the army was marching, and the long line could not see the side.

Moreover, the number of wagons and pack animals in the team is not particularly large. On the contrary, there are magic power transport fleets flying by from time to time in the sky. Most of the supplies and supplies are carried out by this way of air transportation. Even the imperial guard army arrived at the front line early on this kind of flight platform.

At the moment, on a huge ship in the middle of the fleet, Qin Feng and Audrey are sitting opposite each other. There is a brand-new magic sand table between them.

Audrey looks complicated. She stares at the magic sand table and looks at it again and again. From time to time, magic Ling will come in from the outside and quietly adjust the military deployment marks on the sand table. Every move of the southern coalition army is shown in detail on the sand table.

"You How did you do it? "

Audrey raised her head and looked at him in disbelief: "how many legendary mages have you planted in front to monitor the enemy's movements? And the cost of employing those underground intelligence organizations, such a huge investment, even if we win this war, can we get back the cost? "

She also has a deep study of military strategy, so she can see the power of it. This has subverted her previous understanding of war. Before meeting Qin Feng, she really did not think that war could be fought like this.

Of course, the floating magic transport ship is the best vehicle for rapidly releasing military forces and transporting supplies. However, it is also recognized that the cost of using this kind of carrier is high. Therefore, people prefer to choose sea transportation or land transportation for the transportation and trade of bulk goods.

Even those great empires with strong national strength could not afford to frequently use floating magic transport ships to transport Ordinary troops and materials, with the exception of Qin Feng's army.

"If you can win, nothing else matters."

Qin Feng said with a smile, now of course he will not reveal his cards to the other side, let her have been misunderstood.

Audrey was silent for a moment and said, "what are you going to do with the church troops after the defeat of the coalition forces?"

"Of course, if they are willing to surrender, they will be enslaved. The kingdom is vast and sparsely populated, and now there is a shortage of people to work for." Qin Feng downplayed the tunnel.

"But it's going to make those high church officials angry."

"That's not necessarily true. Since those troops are mercenaries who have concealed their identities, they can no longer enjoy the treatment of regular church legions. Even if I kill them all, those big people can't say anything on their face."

"It seems that this war may not need my participation? You're enough to win. "

"Yes, but I need you to sit down in person just in case." Qin Feng said.

However, the two armies were against each other. Of course, he didn't need to care about anything. He was afraid that those prodigies would lose quickly and do something without a bottom line, such as sending out the semi God level strong men to attack themselves directly.

That's why he asked Audrey to come over. If there are such uncontrollable variables, she will deal with them.
