The moon rises, stars fill the sky, the cold autumn night sky is vast and deep, and occasionally falling stars dot the delicate thin clouds. The starry sky is still as lively as ever.
It is relatively calm at low altitude, with the autumn wind blowing, and twenty shooting stars chasing each other. They are as beautiful as a school of luminous fish in love and courtship in the deep sea, sometimes heading east, sometimes west, sometimes south, sometimes north, like lotus roots disconnected from time to time.
The thin blue pillars are connected to each other, entangled and inseparable.
Most of these meteors are smaller spindle-shaped, and only one is slightly larger than a rhombus, which is the difference in body size between male and female fish. Suddenly, the school of fish subtly changes its formation in the entanglement, and nine thin blue pillars instantly connect the rhombus.
The meteor was melted and penetrated, and the silent scene seemed to have stopped. The meteor burst into flames and fell straight to the ground. The female fish seemed to be satisfied and threw away the enthusiastic suitor.
The mountains and fields are beautiful, and a sparkling river reflects the bright moon, starry sky, shooting stars, and falling fire. The water pressure from the air makes the fish feel premonition, and they flee in groups upstream and downstream. The fins of the fish look white, white, and soft in the moonlight.
The thin silver sand that the beauty is wearing fades to both sides, and the next moment the scene becomes horrifying.
After a loud "boom", the water mixed with the silt, and the plasma rose. In the gray and blurry night, a towering tree grew on the ground, and the bloody leaves and branches spread out into blazing waves, and mushroom clouds rose... Iron
The atmosphere of the beautiful autumn night was instantly replaced by the atmosphere of the battlefield with blood.
This river passes through the junction of the three states of Xiang, An, and Jun, and reaches the east of Junzhou. The upper reaches of Shengshu River, where the Xiang River originates, is not short of water. A circle of roaring and splashing waves flows around the crater.
The village on the shore is empty, except for the ruins of some old walls, and a few rotting corpses exposed, and no one has buried them despite the wind and rain.
At this moment, the river bed and the ground had stopped shaking. In the darkness, the water waves rolled back towards a twisted giant ship exposed at the bottom of the river bed. The diamond-shaped ship body fell from high altitude and did not fall apart. It was so strong that it looked extraordinary, but at this time, I don’t know why.
, it was burning from the inside out and spewing flames. The flames burned directly on the water. Even the stream could not extinguish it... This fire was not an ordinary fire.
The battle in the night sky continued. An Ark-shaped star appeared in the western field of vision. It flew so high that it could be seen from such a distance. More tiny star points loomed in the distance behind it. In the night sky
The meteors that were chasing each other and fighting fiercely separated into two waves.
A small wave of four or five stars were thrown towards the Ark stars, and the baby swallow couldn't wait to throw them into its arms.
A large wave of eighteen stars slowed down and turned back, circling down like a pack of wolves, overlooking the Zhenjun ship burning in the water of Shengshu River.
There was a huge hole on the side of the ship that penetrated into the strong wind. The wind helped to intensify the fire. The air and mountains in all directions were shaking, and spiritual energy gathered in all directions. It was like... participating in a gluttonous feast.
The bows of nine of the eighteen airships lit up with a faint blue light, a beautiful and dangerous color. A male voice was heard in the night sky, with a little leisurely joking: "Linggan hasn't come yet, attract firepower."
My teammates ran away first. You are not united enough. Those of you who are pretending to be dead should also come out. I promise... I will definitely... beat you to death."
Just at this moment, the ground shook again, and the source of the earthquake was from inside the ship. It seemed like the sound of a furnace explosion. The immortal furnace of the semi-permanent fairy garden was finally completely destroyed by the devouring power of the world. The ship's hull buzzed and its brilliance was dimmed.
It has lost its defensive power - in fact, even if it is fully defended, it cannot withstand the main gun salvoes of one Zhenjun class ship and eight Hongwu ship class ships.
"Walk--"
Four or five flaming figures rushed out of the hole, and the wild dogs fled in panic, but they dropped nine immortal thunders from the air. Except for the more powerful flagship, which fired alone, the eight airships all focused on one person in twos. "Boom, boom, boom" five groups of brilliant fireworks exploded in the air.
The immortals from the outer world were already injured and could not withstand the firepower. However, they were also fierce and chose to self-destruct.
In the Xingjun ship that flew in from a distance to meet him, Taoist Lingqian watched helplessly as the enemy slaughtered friendly troops in front of him. His face twitched and he said coldly: "Withdraw."
After saying that, he glanced hard at the few small Xianmen Hongwu ships that had abandoned the flagship and fled. It is estimated that these guys made Ye Qing break his courage and decided to use them next time he needs cannon fodder.
The Star Lord ship collected the remaining five Hongwu ships and reunited with the more than 30 old ships that had caught up. The entire fleet turned around and headed south - instead of returning westward, dots of stars appeared in that direction, and on the river in the middle of the night The fishing fires spread out little by little and the fishing nets surrounded them under the water.
Nuwa connected to the flagship communication alone and asked: "Are you chasing me?"
"No need, since we haven't received the Heavenly Talisman, let the friendly forces take over. Heavenly Merit can't be earned all the time... Now that the Heavenly Fleet fleet has become a phenomenon, it's rare for us to go back and have a good rest when it's rare for us to take a break."
Ye Qing drove his flagship past the burning enemy ships. He felt like the world was being swallowed up. There was nothing left to loot, so he continued heading north without stopping: "There is still a peace treaty to be signed in Fengliang City, Xiangzhou, but the second clone has gone. After leaving Dongzhou, the third avatar is still being cultivated in Nanlian Cave, so I had to be there in person..."
Nuwa did not ask where his first avatar was, she just smiled and said: "Fengliang City, the capital of Xiangzhou? In other words, Xiangzhou will be unified?"
"Yes, the merger of Yingxiang has also been put on the agenda. The two states have some strategic room for maneuver in China. If ordinary princes can reach this stage, they can basically guarantee that this wave will not fall... But since there is a new situation like Dongzhou, I have some new ideas... do you want to hear them?"
"Say it quickly..." Nuwa said angrily, "I have nothing to do anyway."
In the late autumn night sky, the fleet followed the flagship and headed north. One or two immortals occasionally flew out of the transport ship to say goodbye to Ye Qing. Since the route of the Han fleet was revised, they no longer hitchhiked and left at the nearest place according to their respective tasks. ship.
Finally, after all the Taoists from Leshan left, apart from Nuwa, Sanqing and their clones, only the three main airships assigned by Heaven still had immortal pilots - they had been incorporated into Ye Qing's fleet in the Heaven's combat sequence. They followed Ye Qing's flagship wherever it went.
"The music ends and everyone disperses, the banquet is over and the wine cools down...it's so boring."
Ye Qing lay on his back on the chair, pinching his eyebrows with his fingers. He chatted with the beauty in colorful palace clothes across the main control screen. His mind was gradually emptying, washing away the dust of the long war. His thoughts expanded leisurely, reflecting on the recent past. reward……
Time has now reached the late autumn of Cai Pingjing's 18th year. It has been half a year since he handed over the mass production technology of the flying ship, which is exactly the beginning of the production cycle.
The changes in the overall situation are as expected. Flying ships, which are knock-offs of Hongwu ships in the outer world, are very popular among the immortals. Most of them are gathered into public fleets. Fleets are born one after another, and the rest are allocated to the three realms and five veins. It's not much, but it's not like a team of immortals is without a single one. This has greatly improved the dynamic defense conditions, and the corruption situation in various states has been slightly restored this month.
But there are some unexpected things. The combat power of the flying fleet is the combination of software and hardware, and the positioning requires coordination and tacit understanding. It is difficult for newcomers to show their strength. For the immortals to master fleet operations so smoothly so quickly, there are even some who are like me.
Very skilled... a little strange, I don’t know how Heavenly Court does this, but overall it’s a good thing.
In terms of personal gain, because of the active support to the various states, Heavenly Court specially allocated three new capital ships, which greatly increased the strength of its air fleet. With one flagship and the firepower density of eight capital ships, even the real attack just now
Even the king's ship could not withstand its own volley.
This makes the simple human shield value of the transport ship less, and it can finally be stripped off and used for transportation purposes for strategic relocation to the rear. This is also one of the reasons for going back to rest and recuperate.
... With the war out of the way, the entire fleet began to become invisible in order to prevent the enemy from seizing the route and ambushing it. This can avoid being involved in the war again... When there is an opportunity, you can also sneak attack a lone enemy ship along the way.
Ye Qing looked outside and saw that the console, floor, ceiling, and bulwarks had all become transparent. He felt that he was also transparent, but he was used to it, and he just slowly looked at the scenery outside.
The ship's speed is still very fast, and its invisibility is only the fluctuation of light and breath. The essence of the ship's body is still there. The wind passes by both sides of the ship to form air vortices, with slight blocking force. In the meantime, fine dust is hit at the bow of the ship due to the relatively high speed.
Snapping sound.
I accidentally bumped into the unlucky Night Bird, who screamed and saw a bloody pit. The fairy crystal rolled to make up for it. From observation along the way, the flagship repaired much faster than other flying ships.
Ye Qing knew that this was the Yuantai Five Elements Furnace urging the flagship's defense system to self-repair. He pondered over its optimization details and tried to use it as a template to repair other battleships after returning: "Judging from the battles along the way, I feel
This flagship has been optimized by the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. Its offensive, defensive and flight effects are actually not inferior to those of the True Sovereign Ship... that is, the core Immortal Furnace is in the sky and on the ground. The True Sovereign Ship Immortal Furnace is a complete version of Immortal Garden, or even Hongwu.
The ship has a semi-solidified fairy pool, and I still need to burn the spirit stone..."
Or perhaps time has faded away the tension in his memory. Ye Qing recalled the twists and turns of finalizing the mass production technology of this immortal ship, and began to feel a little funny. The strange Five Elements Furnace he created with the Chaos Five Elements Yuan Fei Formation as the core is probably based on the Heavenly Palace.
The aesthetics of my pursuit of excellence will feel terrible. In fact, no matter how you optimize it, it can't be put on the wall. In the end, you can only pinch your nose and endure it...it is always cheap but not good.
Sensing the joyful and relaxed atmosphere, Nuwa smiled and said: "How can you expect something to be so good if it is made at a bargain price? It can also be used in this area..."
"If the outer domain learns Ye Jun's trick, it will be very difficult for this domain to counterattack others simply by relying on the fleet. The one that can cross the void must be a genuine immortal furnace, not a copycat magic circle machine that can only be used within the boundary film.
When the time comes, he will have to face the hole he dug with his own hands... But he has to be able to survive the counterattack, which is a matter for the future.
Ye Qing snorted and said in a very relaxed tone: "According to the old saying among us Han people, drinking poison to quench thirst is something that some people do. If you really can't survive now, talking about the future will be in vain. I can't expect to be the protagonist of destiny, I think I just... cough
, at the beginning, he had no luck and even his clan members were oppressed. He was a grassroots upstart who had just escaped from food and clothing. He was barely able to squeeze into the front line among the princes. However, with the wealth of heavenly favors like Prince Li Yu, King Wei, and King Chu.
It’s still early in the morning.”
Nuwa glanced at him: "Ye Jun never seems to complain about Qingmai's weakness."
"It's useless to complain, and this is my choice."
Ye Qing said very normally. At this time, several guiding beams of light swept up from below, and he breathed out: "The Xiangyin Cave has arrived. Let's land here first, and then go to Fengliang City to meet Cai Chao's special envoy... Right here
Xiangyin County is very close."
While speaking, he connected to the internal communication systems of each ship and said to the soldiers: "Everyone, we are home."
After a moment of silence, cheers came from all ships, deafening. Ye Qing had already prepared to lower the volume and smile.
He looked at a hill with bright light on the dark and vast land, the city where the streets were gradually returning to prosperity, and the lights of the newly built military workshop area day and night. He quietly looked at it and whispered to himself: "This is the land of the king..."
The fleet landed in the cave. Nuwa came out and saw this prosperous night scene. It was completely different from the tatters in Zhang Weicun's hands half a year ago. She thought of something and asked: "The population of Fengliang County has always been very good."
, there are two million, the total population of the Yingxiang confluence is 20 million, plus the refugee population recruited from various inland areas totals 3 million, Dongzhou has conquered most of the foreign population, and the total population of the Han Dynasty's direct jurisdiction has reached almost
Crossing the 30 million red line...is this the line of kings, right?"
"Yes, actually in terms of population directly under the Central Government, we have just caught up with the Chu State... It's hard to say whether our luck will be determined now, but as long as we can penetrate the Dongzhou Continent in the winter counterattack this year... it is best to seize the southern colonial area of the Cai Dynasty.
, drive the King of Qing County into the sea, then I can offer sacrifices to heaven again in Dongzhou and ask for the title of king."
Ye Qing's eyes were shining, full of strong self-confidence and determination to win, and he strode down the mountain. The chariot and horse ceremonial guard built for the first-level diplomacy of the state had been prepared at the foot of the mountain. It looked like a huge motorcade.
Sometimes when dealing with an old-fashioned person like Cai Chao, you need to pile up the ceremony.
Seeing Ye Qing coming down, Ji Caizhu hurriedly greeted him and intervened: "My lord, are you leaving now?"
"The night is long and there are many dreams. Without further ado, let's leave now..." Ye Qing didn't want to end hastily like the last peace negotiation with Cai Han. He got in the car and looked at Nuwa who had been following him: "Is Emperor Wa going to rest?"
"go together."
Nuwa grabbed the corner of the silk skirt and jumped up. The carriage shook slightly. The carriage was relatively spacious, but Ye Qing still stretched out his hand to support her arm out of habit. When she sat firmly on the opposite side, he faced Ji Caizhu outside.
Order: "Let's go... let's go see Prince Xin, this old friend."
The coachman in front made a sound, the carriage swung forward slightly, the wheels rolled steadily, and the entire convoy headed north.
The dragon aura rises, the green dragon hovers, and its appearance is majestic.
In the night sky, one can also feel a dragon aura rising from Fengliang City, and a dragon is circling, looking at each other like beasts entrenched in their respective territories, facing each other from a distance and gradually getting closer.
