On the evening of August 13, the third year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao rushed back to the lord's cabin of Yicun from Liandao, and used his meal time to communicate with several heroes about the establishment of the Yizhen territory management system.

But Qu Mao ended the topic rudely by asking the heroes to discuss other topics. However, the other heroes were not notified in advance and could only look at Qu Mao helplessly.

Qu Mao finished the meal quickly and waved to the staff of the lord's hut to come and clean it up.

Recently, the Lord's Lodge has added dozens of girls with excellent qualifications as staff. Although Qu Mao told Su Yan that boys are also needed, Su Yan did not select any boys to work in the Lord's Lodge. She originally lived in the Lord's Lodge.

The heroes of the hut and other residents, such as Jenny Walter, have now moved out of the Lord's hut.

Qu Mao waited until the staff removed the tableware, then looked at the other heroes and said: "Everyone, according to Xinping's intelligence, Liuwang Principality is gathering troops to attack our Yizhen territory, and it is expected to send more than 100,000 troops.

I want to know with you: What confidence does our Yizhen Territory have to deal with the invasion of Duke Liu, and even if our future enemies in Yizhen Territory are not just Duke Liu, what do we have?"

Kong Ming shook his goose feather fan and said slowly: "Sir, Yizhen Territory is located deep in the ocean. We occupy a convenient location. Any force that wants to invade our Yizhen Territory must attack our Yizhen Territory through warships.

However, our navy has epic naval heroes like Sylvia Ocean and Ful Swampe, and naval battles are invincible. This is one of our confidences."

Qu Mao nodded and said: "Kong Ming, this is indeed a source of confidence for our Yizhen territory, but it is not enough.

The port of Yancheng where the Prince of Liu sent troops is only 300 kilometers away from Yi Island, which means that it can be reached by sailing for a whole day. Therefore, the Prince of Liu will most likely not choose to sail at night, which reduces the deterrence of Sylvia.

Moreover, there are no other islands or reefs in the section from Yancheng Port to Yi Island, which will also weaken the advantage of the Full Swanpu naval battle.

This is a confidence, but we cannot completely rely on this confidence."

Su Yan said: "Sir, we now have a total population of 11.58 million. According to the God-given attributes of our Yizhen territory, we produce food. We can support up to 600,000 troops. I think this is a confidence."

Qu Mao also nodded and said: "This can be considered a source of confidence, but now I estimate that the navy and army are still at around 100,000 troops each, and even if there is an excess, it will not be much.

It is already August 13th, and there are only 18 days left until September.

Within these 18 days, I think we will be able to increase the total number of navy and army soldiers to more than 600,000. Even if we barely increase this number, I am afraid that the newly added soldiers will not have much combat power."

Su Li said: "Sir, we now have a total of 119 heroes, and Su Yan still has 22 hero transfer items. We can increase the total number of heroes to 141 anytime and anywhere.

Sir, do you think this gives us the confidence to deal with the invasion of the Prince of Liu Kingdom?"

Qu Mao smiled and said: "Of course this counts, and our heroes' qualifications are generally not bad.

But the question is whether these heroes can exert their combined force when they come together."

Su Li continued to say cautiously: "Sir, under our seven islands with vegetation, there are underground passages connecting each other. When we fight against the Liuwang Principality, we can dispatch our troops unexpectedly at any time and at any time. Does this count as our fight against Liuwang?

What is the basis for the principality’s invasion?”

Qu Mao thought for a while and said: "Although the Purple Light Trail has not been completely marked yet, I think this can be considered part of the confidence.

Do you think you have any other confidence?"

Several heroes fell into silence, and Kong Ming stopped shaking his goose feather fan.

After a moment of silence, Kong Ming said: "Sir, we have a super water conservancy project like the Lihe Reservoir, and tens of thousands of units of excellent arable land on both sides of the Lihe dam. This should be considered our confidence."

Su Yan said helplessly: "Sir, you asked us to talk about our confidence. Every time we talk about our confidence, you will tell us about the problems with this confidence. What do you want to talk about?"

Qu Mao smiled and said: "Of course what Kong Ming said is part of our confidence, but is the application of Lihe Reservoir and Lihe Dam really complete?

Su Yan, the reason why I want to discuss this issue with you is just to let everyone understand that the challenges we face are huge. The enemies we face are huge in number and powerful, so we need to be energetic and respond proactively.

We need to overcome every challenge.

Of course, our own strength is not weak. Compared with other forces, our Yizhen territory has developed very quickly, and we are also very strong.

It’s just that our strength is somewhat unstable due to our rapid development, so we need to be vigilant.

I hope that everyone can clearly understand our advantages and not lose confidence when facing powerful enemies.

At the same time, I hope that if you have enough courage, you should not be blindly confident or even arrogant. If you are not careful, we may be torn to pieces by the enemy, because we have too many enemies.

All in all, I hope everyone will be full of confidence and not slack off."

Kong Ming picked up the goose feather fan, shook it a few times, nodded and said: "No wonder you, on the one hand, affirm the achievements we have achieved, but on the other hand, you are also concerned about the possible threats and loopholes on the premise of affirming our achievements.

Sir, you are really well-intentioned in working hard to develop your comprehensive strength for everyone.

Sir, please rest assured, at least my subordinates will not slack off at all."

Su Yan also nodded and said: "Sir, I will urge the army and navy to expand their troops, and I will not slack off. Please rest assured, sir."

Qu Mao nodded and said: "I'm still worried about you guys. What I'm less worried about are the military heroes. So the war is about to begin. The thoughts and status of the heroes still need to be paid attention to and we must not slack off."

Su Yan, Kong Ming, Su Li and others said in unison: "Yes, sir, we will never slack off!"

Qu Mao then nodded to everyone. Just when Qu Mao wanted to continue talking about the next topic, there was a knock on the door of the lord's hut restaurant.

Su Yan glanced at Qu Mao in shock, stood up, and walked towards the door.

Qu Mao also looked back in surprise. After Su Yan opened the door, Xinping stepped in. When he saw several heroes there, Xinping was stunned. It seemed that this was not the first time this happened.
