In the past, Li Yunpeng only had a sphere of influence around Wuzhou City, and the enemies he came into contact with were not very strong. But now, the strength of Moyang City is expanding, and other forces are also not idle, and they are also developing at an extremely fast speed.
In Xihai Province, except for the Eagle Nguyen Fortress, all the bridges across the Lan Long River were destroyed.
The emperor of the Blue Dragon Empire, Zhao Hailong, looked gloomy. This move made it clear that he was going to be an enemy of the empire.
But it¡¯s not just the Xihai Province family that disobeys orders. Forces that are a little further away and have similar strength do not act in accordance with the Blue Dragon Empire¡¯s recruitment order.
? Blue Sea Fleet, Gangdong Branch.
Liu Jianbin crumpled the telegram from the Blue Dragon Empire into a ball, "How did Zhao Hailong, a young merchant, become the emperor of the Blue Dragon Empire in such an instant?"
"Hmph, in the past, he even toasted me three points lower for the equipment orders for our army. Now he dares to order us to surrender. It is simply unreasonable!"
Zhao Hailong¡¯s name is unknown to everyone in the military. He was one of the top ten arms manufacturers in Tuyuexing before the end of the world. He was the richest man in the Blue Dragon Kingdom. He had a wide network of contacts and was as rich as the enemy.
The weapons and equipment produced by his company are sold all over the world, and many militaries from various countries are his customers.
After the end of the world began, he gathered hundreds of thousands of military factory subordinates, quickly opened up the situation with advanced equipment and iron-blooded skills, and joined forces with the four major military regions to control Beitucheng in one fell swoop.
Then, relying on his own military background and skills, he divided, bribed, and provoked. After a few months, he directly controlled the two major military regions, and then impatiently became king and hegemony.
As a businessman, he knows how to obtain maximum benefits at the minimum cost. A single telegram can directly increase the population under his command by more than one-third.
Zhao Hailong, who completely held military power in his hands, gradually grew into a giant on the north bank of the Lanlong River.
The commanders of the Blue Sea Fleet communicated with each other and reached a consensus. They would not compromise with Zhao Hailong, a businessman, under any circumstances.
The 16th Guard Army received Li Yunpeng's order and quickly assembled towards the northeastern border.
At the same time, the Blue Dragon Empire and the Blue Sea Fleet also realized the importance of Sequoia City and sent heavy troops there.
For the Blue Dragon Empire, Sequoia is an important place to connect to the south of the Yangtze River. For the Blue Sea Fleet, it is a barrier that prevents the Guards from expanding eastward.
For Li Yunpeng, it is the key to breaking the blockade.
? Sequoia was originally an inconspicuous county-level city, but at this time, it was in a tumultuous and tense situation.
Even the zombies in Sequoia City felt bad and took the opportunity to retreat, leaving only an empty city.
The three parties are watching eagerly, and no one dares to step into Sequoia City for fear of provoking the other two parties to jointly annihilate.
Li Yunpeng was in the study, his brows furrowed.
Spring plowing in the province is coming to an end, and the cleanup of the ruins of Eagle Ruan Fortress has basically ended, but the situation in Sequoia City is still at a stalemate.
After much deliberation, he decided to have a phone call with his old acquaintance Liu Jianbin.
"How are you doing, Commander Liu?"
In view of the current situation, Liu Jianbin can basically guess Li Yunpeng's purpose.
"It's just so-so. Why don't City Lord Li be proud of himself, occupy a province, and make a face for us humans!"
"Commander Liu is ridiculous. Xihai Province seems to be vast, but now it has become a dead place." Li Yunpeng said.
Liu Jianbin thought to himself, "City Lord Li, please speak quickly. Let's stop beating around the bush and speak your mind."
"Good! It's really refreshing!" Li Yunpeng praised. "Zhao Hailongtian is shameless. He dares to claim the empire in vain and is ambitious. You and I are both Jiangnan forces. How about we cooperate?"
Liu Jianbin fell into deep thought. To be honest, it would be difficult for the Blue Sea Fleet alone to compete with the Blue Dragon Empire. Although Zhao Hailong's maritime power is not too strong, if the Blue Sea Fleet is driven out of the sea and loses its land territory, it will become invincible. The roots of duckweed will wither sooner or later.
If you want to compete with the Blue Dragon Empire, you must unite multiple forces to resist together.
¡°City Lord Li¡¯s words are reasonable, but you also know that I am not the only one who has the final say on the Blue Sea Fleet. This matter needs long-term consideration.¡±
Li Yunpeng has no time to think long term. Sequoia City is very important to him, and he will even have to fight to get it.
Of course, this is the worst case scenario.
"Commander Liu, please put aside those who are cooperative or not. Can you give up Sequoia City to me?"
Liu Jianbin frowned, "Sequoia City is in charge of Commander Lu Qianshan of Zebin Province."Moreover, it is a task personally assigned by Commander-in-Chief Luo, so I am afraid it will not be easy to handle. "
"Besides, City Lord Li probably wants to use Sequoia Road to develop eastward, right? To tell you the truth, Dejiang Province has been included in the development plan by the Commander-in-Chief, and he will not let others get involved in any case."
Li Yunpeng knew that what Liu Jianbin said was true, "Commander Liu, let me tell you my thoughts first, and I hope you can convey them to Commander-in-Chief Luo."
Liu Jianbin hesitated and said, "City Lord Li, please speak."
Li Yunpeng gathered his thoughts and said slowly: "Isn't Commander Luo not ready to directly face the Blue Dragon Empire? As long as you give up Sequoia City and Dejiang Province to me, then in the Blue Dragon Empire and the Blue Sea Fleet In the meantime, there will be Moyang City as a buffer, and I will deal with the threat from the north."
"I don't think it's too much to give up a city and a province in exchange for the stable development of the Blue Sea Fleet. Besides, in the entire Jiangnan, besides me, Moyang City, who else has the ability to help you jointly resist the Blue Dragon Empire?"
"For Zhao Hailong, I am just a little shrimp, and the Blue Sea Fleet is his ultimate goal!"
Liu Jianbin thought about it and found out that what Li Yunpeng said was reasonable, but would the Commander-in-Chief agree to just give up Dejiang Province?
"Can City Lord Li really stop the Blue Dragon Empire?"
Li Yunpeng became more energetic, and at least Liu Jianbin was somewhat moved by his proposal.
"If you have enough territory and population, you can block it. You can't let the horses run away without giving them grass, right?"
"Hahahaha, City Lord Li is really funny. I'm curious, how did you develop without any foundation? Could it be that you had the help of top scientific and technological talents?" Liu Jianbin probed.
"Commander Liu, you don't have to worry about this. There is no need to worry about Dejiang changing to the Blue Sea Fleet. I hope you and Commander-in-Chief Luo can consider it."
Liu Jianbin just asked casually, it was strange that he could get something out of Li Yunpeng's mouth.
"Okay, I will convey your thoughts completely. As for the outcome, I dare not say."
"It's okay, Commander Liu, thank you."
After hanging up the phone, Li Yunpeng called Lao Fang over, "How is the dark energy weapons production line doing?"
This is something that Li Yunpeng has been keeping an eye on the housekeeper. Lao Fang immediately replied: "I'll be back soon, Lord City Lord."
"Almost?" Li Yunpeng was a little dissatisfied, "Give me an order. I will see the dark energy weapons production line operating within a month. If not, let Zhou Gu go to the border to herd sheep!"
Lao Fang wiped the sweat from his forehead, bowed and said, "Yes! I'll go and hurry you up."
Li Yunpeng looked at the scenery outside the window, his mind drifting into the distance.
He had to make two preparations. If Luo Xiaotian didn't agree, he would have to rely on his own strength to forcefully open a road to Dejiang Province, even if he was the enemy of the whole world! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
