Chapter 298 The attitude of the world of immortality
Imperial Study Room.
Xu Mochen and Prime Minister Chi Mobei met in private for the first time.
When Xu Mochen ascended the throne at a young age, the strong support of this important minister was indispensable.
At that time, Xu Mochen, who didn't know the existence of immortal cultivators, really thought that the prime minister was dedicated to helping him and valued him very much.
After the unification of Da Qian, the face of the immortal cultivator was revealed, and Xu Mochen cut him off with a sword, and the two sides became enemies.
Unexpectedly, after going around and around until now, Chi Mobei, who Xu Mochen always thought was the boss, now actually took the initiative to get closer to him.
"Ai Qing, please see me urgently," Xu Mochen motioned to sit down for tea, "I don't know what's urgent."
"Your Majesty," Chi Mobei did not drink, and his expression showed a rare hint of impatience, "I have received a secret report that a foreign country in the West has taken action against us."
"The foreign country in the west," Xu Mochen didn't know why, but his mind turned to the cold boss Qian Ling, "We are so far away from them, how could we be related."
"It should be Yunshangjie who is leading the effort from behind," Chi Mobei's beard trembled. "All countries are participating, and the Holy See is behind it. I heard that their army has already set off."
"Your mortal worlds in the ten directions don't care about this matter." Xu Mochen was not in a hurry, "The upper world of the Cloud can interfere in the affairs here at will, so who is in charge?"
This is a bit sowing discord.
Chi Mobei pretended not to understand: "Your Majesty, this matter has not yet involved Shifang World. It is a dispute between human races, because it is difficult for veterans and others to say anything."
Xu Mochen had heard about this a long time ago, so he wasn't very surprised: "Human race, it didn't turn into a war between two countries. Did they have no food to eat, or did they have enough to eat and nothing to do."
Chi Mobei was embarrassed: "Your Majesty, the Western Foreign Country is not one country, but several countries."
He kindly reminded: "As far as I know, their military strength is superior to ours.
Especially the maritime fleet, it is first-class among the human race."
fleet
Xu Mochen pinched his chin. He had just established the Ningzhou Fleet and hadn't had a chance to show it off yet. It was his turn to take the stage so soon
"Old minister estimates," Chi Mobei didn't know the details of what the emperor was doing, "the Natural Sect wants to take action from the Ancestors. If they can capture Daqian, it will be a good thing for them.
If the immortal cultivators here in Daqian take action, then they will have even more reason to intervene.
In that case, it will become a war in the world of immortality. Once it breaks out... I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with the aftermath."
This reminded Xu Mochen that he was not afraid of human war.
In this era, there are no weapons of mass destruction.
But if a war breaks out among the immortal cultivators, it will be enough to harm the human race.
If we all work together, it will be a trivial matter to destroy several countries.
He frowned: "What does courtier mean?"
In this world, it takes time for human information to be transmitted, but for immortal cultivators, the large-scale military operations of foreign countries in the West cannot hide from them.
"Your Majesty," Chi Mobei rarely hesitated, "just like when Da Qian unified the world, we immortal cultivators were actually just assisting in the arrangements behind the scenes.
On the positive side... His Majesty still needs to do it personally."
Xu Mochen understood, that is to say, in a war between human races, the human race must fight first.
As for whether the cultivators will intervene, we have to wait for the progress of the battle.
"The memorial from the Ministry of War has not come up yet," Xu Mochen knew it well, "I understand the situation. It involves different realms, and I can understand that the Mo Alliance has concerns.
It's just that... I don't want to hide it from you, I don't want any emperor to surrender, and I don't want any ministers to kneel on the ground."
Chi Mobei also laughed at these words: "Your Majesty, Daqian Middle Earth is the place where immortality originated.
The Natural Sect is just a foreign magic and cannot be considered orthodox, so Your Majesty does not need to worry about us in this regard."
Xu Mochen is satisfied with this promise. He is afraid of the Shifang World of Daqian and wants to use this opportunity to add fuel to the flames for his own sake.
It's okay for him, but Xu Mochen will never do anything that endangers the people.
The immortal cultivator will not add insult to injury, so he can go all out to deal with foreign countries.
Chi Mobei's attitude conveys the attitude of the world of immortality.
That night, he summoned all his important ministers.
Originally, I thought Qian Ling could also participate, but Xu Mochen estimated that her status was unusual, so he didn't invite her.
"As for foreign countries in the West," Mu Nanyi, as the leader of the General Staff Headquarters, had to speak first, "we ministers have reviewed various information, but we are too far away from them and our contacts are not frequent.
Before the Great Qian Dynasty, there were turbulent times. Even in the previous era of great unification, the national policy was actually blockade.
Judging from the actions of foreign countries in the West, this is completely different from the establishment of a country in China."
Zhao Lingbo nodded. As the most talented woman in Daqian, she has a wealth of knowledge: "After Ningzhou was opened to the outside world, we had close contacts with foreign countries.
However, Daqian's shipbuilding technology lags far behind theirs.
So their main combat power is the fleet."
"Now we also have the Ningzhou fleet, but the number of ships is only ten," Mu Nanyi distributed the information to the people in the board of directors, "and our Daqian coastal area is very wide, and it is impossible to rely on the Ningzhou fleet to defend it all. of."
Xu Mochen signaled to hang up the map. This is the most comprehensive information that Daqian has at his disposal.
The world map is not perfect yet, and it is different from Blue Star, but it is similar.
Xu Mochen believes that the laws of the entire universe are the same for humans.
Immortal cultivators are not within the bounds of this law.
"From a geographical point of view, the eastern area of Daqian is basically an ocean, which is very vast," Mu Nanyi stood up and explained, "and this ocean is very large. With the ship technology of foreign countries that we currently have, it is very difficult to get here. Impossible."
"Based on Zhao Yuheng's trade activities in Ningzhou and all the route information we have obtained, it can be inferred that the routes of foreign countries in the West cover countries near us."
"That is to say, they are likely to come from the west with their fleet."
Everyone stared at the map, Xu Mochen pointed: "That is the southwest of Daqian. If you come from there, the first place you arrive is Danzhou in the south."
"Yes," Mu Nanyi continued, "and our only Ningzhou fleet is now near the Ningzhou waters, which means that it is still more than half a mile away from Danzhou in the south.
If we rush there now, we should be able to make it in time.
The problem is that the number of our fleets is too small. According to the information we have obtained from the foreign countries, there should be no less than ten fleets.
It is estimated that the number of combat-capable ships is over a hundred.
The remaining follow-up ships should be carried by army ships. This type is mainly for transportation and will not participate in naval battles."
Mu Nanyi said and glanced at everyone: "This is the main situation we are facing."
