Chapter 1376, winter
This winter, Luo Ji's civilization of all realms could be said to be living quite comfortably, and Luo Ji himself felt quite relaxed.
According to the intelligence information sent back by the elven druids, Raymond Southey and Robert Smith have been very busy in the past few months.
At the same time, he has also successfully mastered the specific positions of the big man-eating player and the Rakshasa player.
This kind of thing is very simple for civilizations in all worlds.
All you need to do is send a few elf druids to follow quietly when the scout on the other side withdraws with his reply.
Although the other party went around in circles in order to hide their whereabouts and showed considerable vigilance, for the Elf Druid who had mastered aerial vision, that approach really didn't make much sense.
Of course, more detailed information will have to be obtained slowly. There is no rush. Now all we need to do is mark the map locations of these two players on the map.
During this period, the three brothers who shared the map with him.
The three people who had just intervened in this battlefield were naturally busy sending out scouts to broaden their horizons.
Song Hui and Ke Xiuwen were lucky enough to be randomly dropped on the same continent by the system.
On that continent, two foreign players have been marked by them. However, the players from Europa have not been found. It is impossible to start a fight within a short period of time after coming to that continent.
In comparison, Liang Cheng, as the third person, is a little more miserable. However, this is also because of the special nature of his own territory. He is actually an island country.
The entire territory is directly an archipelago, so the sea power should be pretty good. In the past few months, they have been busy clearing the sea view, and no trace of other players has been found yet.
With multiple players taking action at the same time and opening up their horizons, the efficiency is indeed very high.
However, for Luo Ji, the peripheral vision was not of great significance.
On the one hand, he generally does not need to run there, but on the other hand, according to his current situation, it is his business to concentrate on building battleships and destroying troops, and there is no way he can go outside to wander around.
In this way, now let us temporarily turn our perspective back to the interior of the civilization of all realms.
Now on this continent, Charlie Crombell's entire empire has been officially taken over by Luo Ji.
As Charlie Crombell's arms inventory had been accumulated for decades, it was natural that Luo Ji got all of it at a bargain price.
At the same time, it also allowed Luo Ji's civilization of all realms to gain a large population and cheap labor force.
In addition, the ready-made arsenals, production lines, and resource collection factories within the empire are undoubtedly extremely valuable gains.
Of course, there are actually a lot of troubles...
At this moment, in a certain city in the Southern Empire, the situation was in chaos, and intensive gunshots echoed in the streets.
A group of Europas wearing shabby clothes and holding rifles in their hands were shooting at a group of southern soldiers who were patrolling in the distance.
"Damn it, it's those bastards again!"
As a soldier of the regular army, after realizing that he was under attack, he found a bunker almost immediately.
A street fight was like something out of a movie.
Amidst the intensive gunfire, a sharp arrow flew directly through the throat of one of the Europas.
Looking at the bodies lying on the ground, the other Europeans were shocked, and then they all shouted...
"Retreat! Retreat quickly! Reinforcements from the opposite side have arrived!!"
Upon hearing this, the group of Europas instantly broke into pieces and rushed into the surrounding alleys.
At that time, the Windrunner troops who were hiding in the buildings on both sides of the street launched a pursuit immediately.
With his movement as fast as the wind, Owen leapt between the buildings.
Seeing an opportunity, Owen, who was running at speed, quickly bent his bow and set an arrow. However, just when the arrow was about to leave the string, Owen stopped his movements, and the expression on his face showed a trace of obvious anger.
Annoyed.
The target he was chasing had just passed through a short alley and rushed into the crowd on the next street...
Similar things have been repeated in various imperial cities in the past few months.
The livability of the city that has experienced the baptism of war has dropped significantly. Coupled with the death of Charles Crombell and the defeat of the empire, the internal situation has become somewhat turbulent. Coupled with the scarcity of materials in the empire area, prices have risen.
Nowadays, resistance armies, commonly known as rogues, have emerged in many cities.
According to the strength of the regular army in the southern border, it is naturally easy to defeat this group of unruly people, but the trouble is that it is difficult to eradicate them. They are mixed among the dozens or millions of people in every city.
After all, the southern army has just arrived, and its control over these cities is still very limited for the time being. You can't expect them to conduct interrogations one by one, right?
For this reason, Luo Ji also had quite a headache.
The people from the Mirror Division are already on the way. This time, he has sent Luo Jin out, intending to let him temporarily take charge of the southern border.
However, that guy, Charlie Crombell, finally brought his empire's economy to the brink of collapse.
It is not easy to save this situation. Even for Ye Qingxuan, this is a mess and can only be cleaned up slowly. It may be difficult to improve in a short time.
At the same time, some trade-offs must be made here.
He asked the people to count, and there were a total of one hundred and fifty-seven cities, large and small, in Charles Crombell's empire.
Of course, according to their standards of civilization in all realms, there are only eighty-nine cities that can be considered serious cities. The rest, Luo Ji prefers to call them 'towns'.
Under this premise, Luo Ji's priority was a few cities and strategic locations located in administrative centers. In addition, the coastal cities were the ones he chose.
The reasons for choosing administrative cities and strategic locations naturally need no explanation.
The reason for choosing a coastal city was because Luo Ji almost believed that naval combat power would be extremely important in the coming battle.
Therefore, he needs ports and shipyards in those cities.
Zhou Yi and Gao Wen were temporarily put in charge of that area. Now they have simply repaired several important large ports and allowed the shipyards in that area to resume work.
Repairing the warships of the Yangtze River Fleet is naturally the first priority.
In addition, they also spent a lot of effort to salvage some enemy warships that they had sunk before.
If you want to increase the number of battleships in a short period of time, it is definitely too late to start from scratch.
Although these enemy warships were sunk, the main body of the frame is still there. Based on this, repair and construction can greatly improve efficiency.
