Lord of the People of Online Games (Lord of the Gaming World)

In Guoqu County, East China Sea, two hundred four hundred warships, fighting ships, grain-carrying ships, and troop-carrying ships assembled. A group of skilled sailors and navy soldiers were busy carrying grain, fresh water, bows and arrows, and kerosene.

Zheng Zhilong and Xu Shengpi, the generals of the Fubo Legion, insisted on being sharp and carried out the final inspection before going to sea.

Zheng Zhilong has a special arm "Zheng Family Army", and Xu Sheng has a special arm "Soochow Archer". According to Chutian's establishment, the Fubo Army had fifty thousand soldiers and sailors and nearly one thousand warships, mainly four hundred warships.

"It's too late to train our troops this time, so the lord ordered us to attack Jeju Island. Koryo didn't know how many soldiers were left to defend Jeju Island, but it was inevitable, so we could only train troops in battle."

"We have many warships still in production, and the average level of sailors and soldiers is less than 30."

"The Liaodong Army is attacking the Koryo Kingdom, containing almost all the forces of the Koryo Kingdom. There is no better time to attack Jeju Island."

Zheng Zhilong looked at the undulating Yellow Sea.

This is the second expedition of the Fubo Legion.

The first time the Fubo Legion went on expedition was when they attacked Qingzhou, and they basically fought on land...

The surprise attack on Jeju Island in the Koryo Kingdom can only rely on the Fubo Army itself.

It takes a thousand days to keep an army, and a moment to use it.

"General Zheng, General Xu, all ships are ready and ready to go to sea at any time."

Officials who counted the situation of each ship came to report to Zheng Zhilong and Xu Sheng.

Zheng Zhilong and Xu Sheng looked at each other, and most of them were ready to go to sea.

"General Xu, the situation has changed!"

Just as Xu Sheng was about to order the sailors to lift anchor, an official of the Fubo Legion hurried over to prevent Xu Sheng from going out to sea.

"What happened?"

"The lord has an order to send General Xu Sheng to Yanzhou East County, assemble the Yellow River ferry, and transport military supplies to Jizhou!"

"What about the crusade against Jeju Island?"

"The lord made it clear that General Zheng Zhilong can do it alone. The crusade against Jeju Island will still be done step by step."

Chu Tian's meaning is obvious, he wants to go to Xu Sheng alone.

As for Zheng Zhilong's attack alone, Chutian would not worry about Zheng Zhilong's self-reliance, because the money and food of the Fubo Army were controlled by Chutian.

Jeju Island is just an island, not a climate.

Zheng Zhilong shrugged, he wanted to fight alone, he could only say that Chu Tian believed in his ability too much.

"It's up to you this time."

Xu Sheng said goodbye to Zheng Zhilong and rushed to Dongjun.

He already understood the significance of his trip to Dongjun—Chutian invaded Hebei, and a navy general was needed to transport food and grass from the south of the Yellow River to Baigou in the north of the Yellow River.

The supply of food and grass for hundreds of thousands of troops is very cumbersome, and it is undoubtedly the fastest to transport food by water.

Zheng Zhilong watched Xu Sheng leave, so he waved his arms: "Go to sea!"

Following Zheng Zhilong's order, five hundred ships left Quxian and sailed towards the Yellow Sea.

This was the first national war that Chutian launched in the main world. Although the real protagonist of the attack on Koryo is the Liaodong Army, Mingguan eats meat, and Chutian just sends the Fubo Army to drink soup, but at any rate, he is going to beat the Koryo stick and divide the largest island of Koryo...

Jeju Island is an excellent place for producing horses, and many war horses of Koryo come from Jeju Island.

At the same time, Jeju Island is located between the Han Empire and the Japanese state, which can be used as a springboard for attacking the Japanese state.

Five hundred ships entered the teleportation array in Quxian, and the scene in front of them changed, and they had entered the depths of the Yellow Sea.

Because the area of ​​"Lord" is too large, the teleportation array in the port can shorten the voyage by about 3/4.

According to Zheng Zhilong's estimate, it only takes ten days of sailing to reach Jeju Island.

...

Dongying, Hirado Castle, and Mi Zhu, the Colonel of Dongdu, have been active in this city for a long time. Hirado Castle is still under the direct control of the player's name, Hirai Yoshimori, but Hirao Yoshimori has surrendered to the Shimadzu clan.

Shimadzu's attitude towards merchants from the Han Empire was arrogant, but in the third national war, Shimadzu suffered heavy losses. From then on, Shimadzu never dared to underestimate the Han Empire, and treated the merchants of the Han Empire with tolerance. many.

Dongying's name is a cheap bone. If they are too modest to them, they will be arrogant. Be strong to them and they will be soft.

In the third national war, they finally learned to be good people.

Just like the major feudal lords of the Han Empire, Oda Nobunaga and other daimyo immediately began to make close attacks after returning to the main world.

Oda Nobunaga, who has gone to Luo, joined Tokugawa Ieyasu and Hojo Shiyasu to attack Takeda Shingen. Oda Nobunaga recruited many ancient generals, further compressing Takeda Shingen's living space.

Although Takeda Shingen has the characteristics of "Fu Lin Volcano", but under the suppression of Oda Nobunaga, Tokugawa Ieyasu, Hojo Shiyasu, and Yuan Yoshitsune and other ancient military commanders, the sphere of influence has shrunk.

The Dongguo and Gyeonggi were in a raging fire, and the Maori, Shimadzu, and Changzong and Ibu clans of the Western country fought against each other in order to compete for the hegemony of the Western country.

Mi Zhu was a chess piece of Chutian's surveillance of Dongying, and he knew the situation of Dongying very well.

Recently, Chutian asked him to get two things in Dongying, arquebus and gunpowder, and set up a Shenji battalion.

Mi Zhu didn't know what arquebus and gunpowder were, but it didn't hinder his activities.

After all, firearms are just a commodity, and all tangible things can be regarded as commodity trading.

The place where the special arquebus is produced is Tanegashima, the territory of the Shimadzu retainer Tanegashima clan. In the early 16th century, the Portuguese arquebuses were introduced to Tanegashima. Therefore, the Shimadzu family in "Lord" has a special arm "Iron Cannon", and the arquebuses equipped by the Iron Cannon are produced in Tanegashima.

Mi Zhu specifically finds Hirado City Lord Hirao Yoshimori and plots to buy arquebus and black powder from Hirao Yoshimori.

The production of firearms and black powder in "Lord" requires blueprints, which are rare. If you really can't buy blueprints, buying arquebus and black powder at a high price is also a way, just like buying war horses from Longyou.

Trade has never been a zero-sum game, but complementary advantages.

When Ping Yisheng heard that the lords of the Han Empire had tried to buy arquebuses and black powder, he could not help frowning: "Ordinary troops cannot use arquebuses, and arquebuses are as expensive as war horses. Do you also have your own firearms in the Han Empire? ?"

Ping Yisheng can become a famous name in Kyushu Island under the Dongying, not a mediocre person. Through Mi Zhu's behavior of buying arquebus and black powder, he infers that Chutian is trying to form an elite army equipped with arquebus.

Firearms are indeed rare, but not rare, and every civilization will have at least one or two firearms units.

For example, the Guanning Iron Cavalry and Shenji Camp in the Eastern Han District, the iron artillery team and the horse-riding iron artillery team in the Eastern Han District (Masamune Date), and the Turkish musketeers of the Ottoman Empire...

These arms are likely to be Tier 8 arms, and only they can use firearms.

Firearms, like heavy cavalry, are expensive to manufacture and are the ace troops of various princes or daimyo.

Mi Zhu replied: "I'm just a businessman, in business, as long as Hirado City manages to get the firearms we want, the price can be negotiated."

Ping Yisheng pondered: "According to the trade treaty, there is no exchange of weapons between the two sides. I have a way to get the iron guns produced by Tanegashima, but why should I sell them to the Han Empire? For the people here."

"That's too bad. Han won't grow much because of a batch of arquebuses. A batch of arquebuses is only a drop in the bucket for us in the Han Dynasty. The lord buys firearms from your Excellency, it is your honor, please don't miss this opportunity. It is said that as long as you trade firearms with us, you and your descendants will forever be the lord of Hirado, and you will never break your promise."

In order to encourage Ping Yisheng to sell firearms to the Han Empire, Mi Zhu made an empty check.

"Please let me think about it..."

Ping Yisheng fell into contemplation.

Sell ​​firearms to other civilized areas?

This means huge profits, but also means betrayal of players in the Eastern Ying Kingdom.

"We will keep the firearms trade strictly confidential, and we will never let the rest of the world know about it. If your Excellency is unwilling to trade firearms with us, we have to retreat and take the initiative to go to Tanegashima to meet the Tanegashima clan and the island. The Tsu trade. The Shimadzu is at war with the Maori and should be eager to get a load of gold and silver."

Mi Zhu still has an alternate choice, and he believes that Ping Yisheng will eventually compromise.

The war between the daimyo of Dongying will not refuse the proposal of the Chutian forces. After Mi Zhu explored the complex relationship between the daimyo in the east, he began to take advantage of the contradiction between the daimyo and profit from it.

Furthermore, the condition of being the lord of Hirado forever is a great temptation for Hirao Yoshimori.

If he can't unify Dongying, it seems to be the best way out to be a city lord like a local emperor forever.

In addition to matchlock guns, gunpowder should also have special drawings.

Mi Zhu bought 500 arquebuses and the corresponding amount of gunpowder from Ping Yisheng in one go.

At the same time, Kyushu Island also sold firearms to Oda Nobunaga's forces and showed his favor to the Oda family.

The current Oda family has received the support of the Tokugawa family, the Hojo family, and the Shimadzu family. The enemies of Oda Nobunaga, the Takeda family, the Uesug family, and the Maori family have to join forces.

Mi Zhu looked at it.

He wanted to encourage Chutian to send troops to Dongying, but Chutian's strategic focus was on Hebei, and he was powerless about the situation in Dongying.

Ping Yisheng had been operating on Kyushu Island for several years, and he really had the means to provide Mi Zhu with 500 arquebuses and the corresponding gunpowder.

Mi Zhu ordered the firearms to be transported back to the Han Empire.

This batch of firearms arrived in Xuzhou when Zheng Zhilong dispatched troops.

Chutian got a batch of arquebuses and couldn't wait to recruit the infantry of the 500 Shenji Battalion. The Shenji Battalion is divided into infantry, cavalry, and artillery.

Suleiman the Magnificent of the Ottoman Empire only brought a few hundred Turkish musketeers to participate in the national war, so the number of 500 arquebuses is already quite large.

The Shenji Battalion infantry equipped with arquebuses belongs to the eighth-order special arms, and the recruitment cycle is three months.

The battle to pacify Hebei may last for more than three months, so the Shenji Battalion can intervene in the battlefield in the middle or late stage.

"The arquebuses that Mi Zhu got are not enough. We can exchange firearms with each other with gold, and then we can use force to get the gold back..."
