Chapter 144 The wind rises from the morning breeze
"It's just like cockroaches. You thought you had killed them all, but when you see one, it means there is a big nest of cockroaches in your home."
Morrowind, Costa del Sol.
Costa del Sol is one of the three major naval bases, facing the forefront of the barbarian sea. Bunker towers are built on the cliffs, like an endless group of fortresses. The thick and majestic shining stone main cannon and twenty-five Skyfire III artillery pieces.
As well as countless mortars, the coastal defense line was impregnable.
Precisely because of the strength of the Linhai Navy, sea barbarians have not been able to invade the interior for hundreds of years. For the residents of Morrowind District, sea barbarians are almost legendary creatures. They were only frightened by their parents with sea barbarians when they were children. Many of them ended up dying.
He will never see Haiman in his life, unless he joins Lin Haijun.
Sea barbarian attacks have been a war that has lasted for more than two thousand years for the Morrowind region. A hundred years after the founding of Huiyao, the Morrowind area is still the hunting ground of sea barbarians. The indigenous people are struggling to survive, and they are Huiyaohua.
It took hundreds of years to regain the coastline step by step - the glorious eight districts, spanning the north and south, and the four seasons of the country are not just free of charge.
The Haiman launches three large-scale attacks every year, which are called the "Three Major Sacrifice" by the Linhai Navy. Each big festival means hundreds of thousands or even millions of Haiman attack and knock on the gate. Even if the Linhai Navy has a cannon fortress, they would not dare to do so.
It is common for sea barbarians to break into a fortress despite the delay. It is said that one of the promotion indicators for officers in the Linhai Navy is 'the number of sea barbarians killed with one's own hands'.
Today is the last day of Haiman’s mid-year festival.
Outside the fortress, sea barbarian corpses were strewn all over the ground, with blood and flesh piled up, and the stench rising to the sky. It was like a purgatory on earth. These scaly bodies with black light, strange eyes as big as copper bells, and sea barbarian corpses with sharp, jagged teeth all meant that they
It has a lethality that is not inferior to that of land beasts.
Inside the fortress, the ground was also covered in blood, and the stairs on the roof were filled with corpses of sea barbarians. The most eye-catching thing among them was a four-meter-high green-skinned sea barbarian corpse lying in the open space behind the fortress door.
, like a whale washing up on shore.
This sea barbarian is called the "Tide Chaser" and is a general among the sea barbarians. When the sun is right during the day, he can set off a huge wave and sweep across the fortress. Other sea barbarians follow the tide and follow the tide chaser into the fortress, even if
The fortress has been reinforced year after year, but it still cannot stop these sea-riding beasts.
There must be sea barbarian generals in the festival. Among them, tide chasers are the most troublesome and troublesome type. They are useless even with ordinary guns and weapons, let alone ordinary swords. Every time they encounter tide chasers, Lin Hai will suffer at least one loss.
It takes several battalions to kill it and other sea barbarians, and it must rely on warriors of the "Dengfengzhijie" to entangle it, and warriors of the "Fusion and Penetration" to cause damage to it.
But now, standing on the body of the tide chaser was a naval officer wearing a dark blue military uniform.
He took out a pair of glasses from his pocket, wiped the lenses with a handkerchief and put them on, stepped down from the body of the tide chaser, and looked at Gao Jin who was kneeling on the ground.
"I'm sorry, I'm not saying you Bai Ye are cockroaches, I'm talking about these sea barbarians." He smiled gently and said: "Every year, millions of sea barbarians are allowed to come ashore to die. The reproduction rate of these sea barbarians is probably even faster than that of cockroaches.
"
"But on land, there are many who can rival these sea barbarians."
He adjusted his glasses, looked at the nearly a hundred Linhai soldiers who were suppressed or killed behind Gao Jin, and showed an unknown smile: "It has only been about two months, and you have already developed such a strong character in Linhai during the white night."
With so many members, it’s really…amazing.”
"Lan Yan, kill him if you want." Gao Jin said coldly: "As early as when I came to the Costa del Sol, I had no intention of going back alive."
Lan Yan smiled noncommittally, looked at the White Night members behind Gao Jin, and said loudly: "You have all been deceived by Gao Jin. No matter how much Gao Jin told you about national justice, it was all just to cover up his truth.
The purpose - he came to seek revenge."
"Lanyan——"
As soon as Gao Jin roared angrily, his neck was severely stepped on by Yin Guyue, who was standing next to him, and he was pinned to the ground.
There was some commotion among the members of Baiye, but many of them still looked indifferent.
"Gao Jin's mentor Lin Jinyao and Lin Jinyao's relative Lin Xuechou were all killed by my subordinate Qian Yuliu. Now that Qian Yuliu died on the night of the Star Rebellion, he is still not satisfied, so he deceived you and other people to assassinate me. Although he said that he wanted to
National hatred, but only for family hatred!"
Gao Jin was anxious and was about to get up: "Qian Yuliu——"
boom!
Yin Guyue stepped on Gao Jin's neck with a violent kick. Gao Jin was out of breath and couldn't say a word.
Lan Yan sighed: "Whether you believe it or not, it is the fact. However, as officers and soldiers of the Linhai Navy, you should not die in the temptation of rebellious ministers and traitors, but should die on the battlefield to protect those who cannot fight.
People fight...come, take them away, put them into criminal camps, and send them out to fight on the front line at the next year-end festival. Their lives will be wiped out, and their deaths will be wiped out!"
"yes!"
The nearby Linhai officers responded loudly, with fanatical expressions, and took the order to escort the rebels away. The members of Baiye did not resist, and left the prison with complex expressions - there were only a few who dared to join Baiye and were afraid of death, but they
I also felt in my heart that it would be better to die on the sea barbarian battlefield during the year-end festival in a few months than to die here.
After all the members of Baiye were escorted away, Yin Guyue let go of her feet and let Gao Jin take a breath.
"Lan Yan, you, you actually..."
"What's wrong with me?" Lan Yan smiled and said, "Did I lie?"
Gao Jin was speechless for a moment, Lan Yan did not lie, Qian Yuliu did so many bad things under his command, but...
"Or would you rather watch them die here than let them live a few more months to die for the country?" Lan Yan sat on the head of the crowd and said, "Humans are a kind of stubborn and stubborn people.
Weak creatures, only if you forgive them first can they convince themselves that they are sorry for you and continue to live on..."
"Your slander is useless." Gao Jin said coldly: "Bai Ye will clear Qian Yuliu's reputation..."
"I don't mean to slander, on the contrary, I admire Qian Yuliu very much." Lan Yan shook his head: "If he hadn't died that night, I actually wanted to recruit him - it doesn't matter even if he is Bai Ye. He is like this
Talents are wasted if they are left to you in vain."
"Pooh."
"I'm not saying you Bai Ye are all rubbish, I just feel that you Bai Ye are incompatible with me." Lan Yan pointed at the tide chaser behind him: "For example, the time for you to take action should be when I am fighting the tide chaser alone.
. When you take action at that time, the success rate is the highest. I might really be assassinated by you - but you chose to take action after I killed the tide chaser. It can only be said that you are seeking your own death."
"You can use any means, but Bai Ye has principles." Gao Jin said proudly: "At that time, other high-level warriors were in other places. Once you die, no one can control the people chasing the tide, and the Linhai navy is leaderless. Maybe this big sacrifice will be
A disastrous defeat or even a rout! Once the Coast of the Sun is breached, countless villages and towns will suffer disaster from the sea barbarians! Bai Ye and you are fighting internally, but humans and sea barbarians are racial feuds! Things have their own importance, and I can distinguish them clearly."
"You see, this is the difference between you and me." Lan Yan said lightly: "If it were me, I would take action and have the confidence to order nearby troops to surround and kill the tide chasers. The worst result is also
It's just that the fortress has been breached, and I will be able to gather the remaining soldiers by then, so the outcome is uncertain."
"You spend all day and night trying to get the perfect ending for everything, but the result is that everything ends in failure."
"Those who know the current affairs are heroes, and this is human ethics."
"However, although I lost the Thousand Feathers, I also gained a new subordinate who is not inferior to the Thousands of Feathers."
Lan Yan waved behind him: "Come over and meet your old friends."
Gao Jin was stunned and saw a Linhai soldier wearing a visor among the Lanyan soldiers. He took off his hat and visor, revealing an ordinary face——
"Xia Linguo!?"
The soldier standing next to Lan Yan is his fellow disciple Xia Linguo who has been missing for more than a month!
Gao Jin quickly showed an angry look: "You, you eavesdropped on our plans through previous channels? Did you betray us?"
Xia Linguo said calmly: "I can't follow you and drown in vain ideals."
"Xia Linguo, you are such a beast!"
Anyone who knew Gao Jin would be in disbelief that the chairman of the Military Academy Student Union could spout so many vulgar words. Gao Jin soon launched an attack on all of Xia Linguo’s female relatives, and after a while even the male relatives
Not even the relatives were spared, and Yin Guyue even pricked her ears after hearing this.
"Okay, drag him down and imprison him, and give it to your father-in-law as a gift in two days. He will definitely be happy to publicly execute a White Night Walker in the lecture square."
Lan Yan waved his hand and signaled the guards to pull Gao Jin down. When Gao Jin was dragged away, he kept swearing and seemed to completely hate Xia Linguo.
"well."
Lan Yan sighed, stood up and said, "Actually, Gao Jin is not stupid either, he is just too naive."
Yin Guyue folded her hands and said with a smile: "He must have thought that Mr.
Help Mr. Xia win your trust, my lord."
Xia Linguo said lightly: "I think he has been wanting to scold me for a long time."
"So," Lan Yan asked, "Mr. Xia, what should we do next?"
"Look for an opportunity to let Gao Jin go. Now that he sees me beside you, no matter what considerations he has, Bai Ye will not take action against you for the time being, but will focus his attention on the 'head' of your father-in-law."
"What you have to do is to create opportunities for them." Xia Linguo looked at the corpse of the sea barbarian on the ground: "After the mid-year festival, each defense line can temporarily deploy troops. Although the Morrowind area has many soldiers and sufficient food,
But there is a shortage of iron ore ordnance, and there is no money left..."
Yin Guyue became excited: "Are you going to rob?"
"It's a joint military exercise, a friendly exchange, just to show our strength." Xia Linguo said: "There is a fat man next to him who is rich but timid. There is no reason for us not to squeeze some oil and water."
"Dongyang District, Silver Blood Society."
Lan Yan smiled: "First, you can unify the three armies, second, you can earn military expenses, and third, you can let your father-in-law have 'close contact' with Bai Ye. It's a conspiracy that kills three birds with one stone. Mr. Xia, as long as Lan doesn't fall one day, you will
My first military division."
Xia Linguo calmly handed over his hand and said, "I'll go and count the battle damage first."
"It's time to work."
Looking at Xia Linguo's leaving figure, Yin Guyue said: "Master, I still feel that Mr. Xia is not very loyal."
"And you?"
"Of course I am absolutely loyal." Yin Guyue patted her chest and said, "Loyalty and loyalty are guaranteed."
Lan Yan smiled and shook his head: "In this world, there are very few smart and capable people. Loyalty is just a trivial matter. If you ask for everything to be perfect, it will be like a white night, and everything will end in failure..."
"What's more, I don't need your loyalty."
"I just need you to follow me."
Seeing that Lan Yan was going to comfort the wounded with pretentiousness again, Yin Guyue sighed and had no choice but to follow behind and play along.
…
…
A storm from the Morrowind District is about to sweep across the Dongyang District, but the people in Xuanzhu know nothing about it.
When the fourth and fifth issues of "Youth Daily" were released, everyone in Xuanzhu County already had a copy and circulated it. If you haven't seen the latest 'knowledge discussion forum' and 'weird and interesting stories', you don't deserve to come out to drink.
Tea; someone collects and binds the covers of each issue. The fourth issue's "Aggrieved maid coming out of the master's room" and "Childhood sweetheart getting out of the luxury car" are even more exciting... No! It's teeth-gnashing!
Although Leyu followed Qin Leyin's instructions to add meat and spices to "Youth Daily", the so-called "low-level dissatisfaction" is a very mysterious indicator, and the effect cannot be seen at all below a certain level. Qin Leyin believes that now
It’s still early to see the level of dissatisfaction at the bottom level.
However, what makes Le Yu a little depressed is that although the sales volume of the newspaper has increased, the progress of his challenge task "Wasting others 10,000 hours" has slowed down. The first issue increased by more than 2,000, but the subsequent four issues only increased by
After paying 6,000, he was still a little less than 2,000 hours short of 10,000 hours.
Le Yu was puzzled and finally came to two conclusions:
① Because the ‘knowledge discussion forum’, ‘inspirational stories’, ‘weird anecdotes’, and ‘complaints’ in the following issues were not handled by him personally, so he was unable to gain readers’ wasted time from them;
② "Future Echo", which he personally directed, is watched by fewer and fewer people and discussed by fewer people, so he wastes less time of others.
Is this what it feels like to have fewer and fewer subscriptions... Besides, other articles on the platform are very popular, but fewer and fewer people are reading the novels I wrote!?
After Le Yu in the editor's office realized this, he suddenly felt lifeless and powerless. He didn't want to write anything. He even wanted to cut off the roots of right and wrong with a knife and let the "tree man" in the vest enter the palace from now on.
'Oh, what I write is all rubbish and no one reads it. Why do I have to rack my brains every day to produce this rubbish? I even have to stay up late to think about the plot. Qing Lan doesn't even feel good when she holds her in her arms. A loser like me is still
Give up writing...'
Just when Le Yu was feeling sorry for herself and inferiority complex, there was a knock on the door of the editor-in-chief's office.
Mi Die came in and said, "Sir, I require you to be present at the family banquet in Jingyuan tonight, and put the newspaper affairs aside for now."
Le Yu nodded: "Okay, let's go directly there after get off work today."
He had no interest in going to the family banquet to eat with those fat relatives, so he declined a few days ago by saying, "The newspaper office is busy."
Originally, Jing Qingqi had agreed, but today she suddenly changed her mind and insisted on letting him go.
It seems something happened...
Thinking of this, Le Yu touched his chin.
Could it be that the Huiyao Four Guards really held back the younger brothers?
