In short, after Wulaoxing discussed it for a long time, he still could not draw any conclusion from it.

In the end, the whole thing can only be attributed to No. 1's intelligence error.

However, the Warring States Period didn't think so.

At first, when he thought Li Yan was having a fierce exchange of fire with the revolutionary army, he thought he had made a mistake.

But after receiving Bastiu's complete report, he, like He, had some doubts.

Speaking of which, Li Yan once had a round of artillery bombardment before fighting, but it was never like this time, where most of the island was directly wiped out. Instead, he used precise artillery bombardment.

This behavior, no matter how you say it, is a bit abnormal.

Although I couldn't tell where the problem was for a while, my intuition told Warring States that it should be related to the revolutionary army.

"Li Yan, what are you hiding and what do you want to do?"

In the Marshal's office, Warring States walked to the window and looked outside, muttering to himself.

------

Between the East China Sea and the Grand Line.

Somewhere in the calm zone.

An island that has no name and does not exist on the map appears here very abruptly.

On the edge of this island, there is a much smaller island connected to it.

A large number of people are traveling between the two islands, carrying bundles of carpets to the big island.

Yes, it's a carpet, at least it looks like a carpet...

On the big island, dozens of people were seen carrying a bundle of carpets at least 20 meters wide, which they then placed on the ground and spread out.

Good guy, it was laid out for a kilometer long. Immediately, an ability user came to the carpet. The moment he touched it with his right hand, an airplane runway appeared.

What he eats is the Carpet Fruit, which can turn everything into a carpet. When the original object is turned into a carpet, it will turn into the pattern on it, and even the weight can be eliminated.

And after the ability is released, these things will change back again.

Although it has little combat power, it is still very strong in terms of support, and to some extent it can even be said to be a bug-like ability.

Especially when transporting things...

No, this massive relocation of the Revolutionary Army was entirely dependent on him. Otherwise, it would not have been that easy. In a few days, except for a few shabby huts, everything was moved away.

"This island seems to be much bigger than Baldigo!"

Standing in the air, Dolag looked down at the entire island and said.

"Of course, this island covers more than 100 square kilometers, which is ten times the size of Baldigo, and the location of the release is also far away from the waterways in the windless zone."

Hearing this, Lei Li, who was also standing in the air, also said.

Speaking of fairways, there is actually no such thing as a fairway in the calm zone.

After all, you can go either way, there's no set route, right?

However, generally speaking, if people want to go from the Grand Route to the East China Sea, or from the East China Sea to the Grand Route, they must go from island to island.

Therefore, as long as you avoid these routes, basically no one will discover this island.

After all, who would be bored enough to wander around in a dead zone?

After that, as long as the revolutionary army arranges security within dozens of kilometers around the island, it will basically not be a problem.

It can be said that this place serves as the headquarters of the revolutionary army more than the former Bardigo.

There's just one troublesome thing, that is, there are too many Neptunes underwater, so many that it makes people's scalp numb, so ordinary submarines won't work here.

Therefore, it is time to launch the Hailoushi submarine plan.

However, how many sea tower stones are needed for each submarine, and where they need to be placed, etc. These are all issues that cannot be confirmed for a while and will require a lot of experiments.

After dealing with Baldigo, Li Yan did not go back to the East China Sea directly.

Now that everything has come out, we can't show it off once. Weiwei happened to say that the second phase of the oil field project in Yuba was about to be completed, and Kobra wanted to invite him to attend the commissioning ceremony, so he happened to go and inspect it.

I heard from Weiwei that his father, Kobra, has been very excited recently.

After all, Alabasta will reap huge benefits after oil production is put into operation.

Even though the first 5 billion in development seems to be a lot, in fact, the bulk of the money is in the later period. It does not mean that if you buy a development right, all the money you make in the future will be yours.

You know, this oil field is in Alabasta. If you have to pay taxes, if not a barrel of oil comes out, Alabasta will have to pay a sum of money.

Although Cobra doesn't understand this, even if Li Yan said that he would buy an oil field for 5 billion and there would be no money left behind, he would agree.

But after all, Li Yan was not short of money, and there was no need to take advantage of Cobra's ignorance in this matter to deceive him.

It was originally planned to send Garp and He back to the headquarters first, but it turned out that the two of them wanted to go together to see everything, so in the end they had no choice but to take them with them.

Fortunately, this oil field project is a public project, so there is nothing embarrassing about it.

By the way, the experimental vehicle that Levin and Frank built together and can be used to cross the desert was recently shipped to Alabasta for field testing, so we just happened to go experience it together.

Speaking of which, this can be regarded as the first real car in the pirate world.

The main reason why the first car was a special vehicle that could cross the desert was that Alabasta was a large enough place for cars to be useful.

Otherwise, if it were to be on those small islands, cars would really be useless.

Another point is that the population of Alabasta is large enough, so there is no need to worry about the market!

------

Three days later, the East China Sea fleet arrived at Aluma, Alabasta, and once again attracted crowds of onlookers at the port.

Ironclad ships are still a rarity in this world, and everyone is very curious about them.

Even those who had already watched Li Yanlai before, still couldn't help but come to watch again this time.

Simply...

Before heading to Juba, Li Yan left Usopp behind and asked him to organize a three-day public tour to allow the people of Alabasta to board the ship to visit some non-sensitive areas.

Although Garp and He didn't understand Li Yan's approach, in their opinion, military equipment such as warships should not be allowed to be visited casually by ordinary people.

What if people from other forces visit and learn from it?

But Li Yan didn't care.

As the saying goes...

Even if I give you the blueprint, you can't make it.

Not to mention other issues, no one in the world except Li Yan can solve the problem of raw materials and processing technology.

And after this wave, I estimate that my reputation in Alabasta will increase by at least 50 points.

In this way, it will be much easier to recruit troops or find high-level talents in Alabasta in the future.

After all, it’s a country with a population of tens of millions, isn’t it?

If you put this huge base there, you can find a lot of special talents.
Chapter completed!
