The reason for the alliance was to deal with the ten major guilds that had begun to pay attention to maritime interests, but now they had to involve those major guilds, which made Yangming and the others very embarrassed. Everyone pondered for a while, and then Yangming said: "Let's,
The strength is not weak. With so many people and the brothers of the Blood-clothed Guards, do we have to unite the ten major guilds? Otherwise, we can just wait."
"This is the last hope of the island country's navy. For these warships, the island country is even willing to be ridden by the combined fleet and not dispatch. The purpose is to wait for the opportunity. If Persia suddenly intervenes, the initiative will be in their hands!
"
The reason why Zeng Yi wanted to rope in several big guilds was, on the one hand, because he really needed a large number of top-notch experts to lead the team in hand-to-hand combat. Only in this way could he capture the ironclad ships below the second level that the island country had just acquired. On the other hand, this was actually
It's also Zeng Yi and the others who don't want to be the only one in the world. Although their background is not as good as the top ten guilds, their combined strength is not weak. If they get a complete Persian fleet, they will basically be the only one in the sea.
The benefits are so huge. If one company dominates, how can individual players survive? How can Zeng Yi and others operate from it?
At this point, Yang Ming and others knew that there was no other way, but to choose the lesser of two evils, Yang Ming and others did not pull in the top ten guilds together, but made a choice among them, and only invited a few people who were related to them.
Big guilds, such as the Famous Guild, have joined the Tianxiang Guild.
With the participation of these guilds, it is possible to completely defeat the island country's navy. Although the island country's warships are all ironclads below the second level, they are also ironclads, and their combat effectiveness is not much worse than ordinary wooden first-level battleships. Zeng Yi and the others
The main ones they rely on are the Jiaolong and the Alliance. Without an overwhelming advantage, Zeng Yi and the others will definitely not attack rashly. They must investigate the real situation of the warships in the island country. Now Zhongyuan and the others don't even know where those warships are docked.
have no idea.
After it was determined that they would take action against the island country's fleet, each guild sent their experts to the northern part of the island country to investigate, but for several days they found nothing.
"How come we can't find it? Does the island country have a secret military port that we don't know about?"
Zeng Yi and the others originally thought that it would not be difficult to find the island country's port where the warships docked, but they did not expect that the players sent so many people and there was no news at all for several days.
"The person who went to Persia was an envoy from the island country. Although he went in the name of the emperor of the island country, the leader was the navy minister under Tokugawa Ieyasu. It can be confirmed that Tokugawa Ieyasu is still in charge of this matter!"
Hearing what the fourth child said, the boss said: "Of course you are brave. Don't look at the ferocity of the players, but whether it is Osaka or Nara, they are Tokugawa Ieyasu's territory, and the main battlefields are also on Tokugawa Ieyasu's territory.
, it can be said that the person who is most eager to defeat the players and drive them out is Tokugawa Ieyasu, and it must be Tokugawa Ieyasu who takes the lead."
Zeng Yi nodded, "That's right! Although this naval army is mainly purchased to deal with players, since Tokugawa Ieyasu takes the lead, he definitely doesn't want to be snatched away by other daimyo, and will definitely put it on his own territory.
, Tokugawa Ieyasu’s main territory is on Honshu Island. Considering various conditions, the main target of investigation should be the northern waters of Honshu, the island country!”
Not bothering to use anyone else, the four of them, Zeng Yi, went out in person. After changing their disguises, they sneaked into Tokugawa Ieyasu's territory. The four of them were going to the northern part of Honshu, heading north from Osaka and arriving in Kyoto on the way. The four of them had no intention of entering Kyoto.
Since this place was captured, the emperor even captured the emperor and dug up the imperial tomb of the imperial family. After Tokugawa Ieyasu re-occupied this place, he once again strengthened the defense of Kyoto. Not only did he rebuild the city defense, but also stationed an elite army, four people
I was also afraid of an accident and had no plans to enter Kyoto.
The four of them didn't plan to go, so they took a detour all the way. Unexpectedly, the four of them took a very remote road and were stopped by someone. More than a dozen island country soldiers set up roadblocks to check the people coming and going.
"Made, how cautious is Tokugawa Ieyasu! Are there even cards here?"
"This guy is also afraid of being beaten. Losing the capital once is enough to be embarrassing. If it is lost again, Tokugawa Ieyasu will basically have no reputation. Of course this guy has to be cautious. Needless to say, I'm sure that around Kyoto
There must be people checking the roads!"
"Where are you four from? What are you doing in Kyoto?" More than a dozen soldiers from the island country stopped Zeng Yi and the four of them and asked immediately.
Zeng Yi looked at the dozen or so island soldiers as if they were dead people, smiled slightly, and said, "Why do we still need to set up checkpoints? There weren't any there last time we came here?"
"Last time? When did you come here?" The island country soldiers looked at the four people and said.
"A few months ago? He rode straight in and rode in!" As he spoke, Zeng Yi suddenly struck out with his palm, and an island soldier flew out.
How could more than a dozen island country soldiers be the opponents of Zeng Yi's four first-class masters? With only a few moves, except for one person whom Zeng Yi deliberately left behind, the rest all fell to the ground.
Mercy?"
"Hey, since we met, let's ask for some news!"
The remaining island soldier was trembling with fear, but he still held up his weapon and did not put it down. When he saw Zeng Yi walking towards him step by step, he yelled and rushed forward with his sword, but was kicked to the ground by Zeng Yi.
, he instantly transformed and went up, grabbing the neck of the island soldier.
"Look into my eyes!" The island soldier looked at Zeng Yi involuntarily. After a moment, he stopped struggling and had been put to sleep by Zeng Yi's soul-transferring technique.
When he captured the soldiers who were interrogating an island country, Zeng Yi actually wanted to ask about the situation in the north of the island country's main island. It was naturally impossible for an ordinary soldier to know such secrets, but it was these low-level soldiers who were interrogating people on the main road in and out of Kyoto.
He was an ordinary soldier, but he knew a lot of information that didn't seem to be that important. Zeng Yi learned from this guy that in recent times, some ministers from the island country had been visiting Kyoto frequently, and their destination was Maizuru Castle in the north of Honshu.
Upon hearing this, the four of them looked at each other with smiles on their faces, "Haha, Maizuru City! Let's go there!"
Maizuru Castle is located in the northern part of Kyoto Prefecture and is one of the sub-administrative districts under the jurisdiction of the prefecture. Maizuru City faces the northern sea of the island country. It is not only the largest in the north of Kyoto Prefecture in terms of population size, but also the most important city in the north in terms of economy.
