Chapter 53 Target Stone Furnace IV
There is no love in the world for no reason. No matter how good the relationship between Pang Bing and Ye Liu Ajiang is, they will not leave a lot of things behind. They have spared a small half of the continent and come to work as a consultant for Cangyue.
Although the Hundred Cities War is over and the large-scale power struggle in the origin has not occurred for the time being, all kinds of transactions and friction have not stopped for a moment.
This kind of secret battle is very disadvantageous for the seemingly beautiful imperial dragon knights. Compared with the other two major forces, Lu Youming's lack of manpower and resources immediately showed that Lu Youming's lack of manpower and resources was immediately showed.
Although the Dragon Wolf Alliance formed with the Sirius Knights is now the largest territorial force in its origin, many plateaus and mountains, not to mention the Holy Land, compared with a hundred battles, that is, the materials produced by the Bombay League and the cities under the Shinra Knights are better than the Dragon Wolf.
The large knights and the Knights' alliance can be said to be a gold-swallowing monster. Every time tens of thousands of people mobilize, fight and supply, they have to consume a large amount of gold and silver coins. If they start to declare war, they will use the money as paper. If more than 100,000 gold coins go down, they may not be able to get one.
However, as long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem. Huanglong has five big cities. Although it can't be done like Pompeii, it is still no problem to pay wages as long as he comes in, the main allowance and the core bonus. The important thing is something that money can't buy.
There is a particularly scarce resource in the north of the mainland where the Dragon Wolf Alliance is located, that is, iron. The production and demand in this origin is the largest metal. It can be said to be a strategic material. Most of the armor and weapons are made of iron and various alloys mixed with iron, and more than 90% of the origin are combat jobs. The industry relies on physical damage to make a living.
In this way, in dozens of cities and towns of the Dragon Wolf Alliance, the price of iron ingots is four to six times higher than that in other parts of the mainland, and sometimes even money can't buy it. Naturally, this unusual situation has black hands behind it. Of course, Lu Youming refuses to suffer this loss for nothing. He has prepared several countermeasures. Fortunately, I learned about the plan of the Moon Knights, so that the problem would be easier to solve.
Ye Liu still has some doubts. The stone furnace is so far away from Sanggan City that this iron will pass through the territory of Pompey and Baizhan. I'm afraid..."
Pang Bing laughed and said, "This is easy to solve. We don't take land, but by sea and land. There is a small port to the northeast of Shilu City. Up along the edge of the mainland, we can reach a bamboo corner city under the Sirius Knights in less than two days. Not only is the freight cheaper, but the transportation volume is much stronger."
"You have done a lot of homework." Ye Liu didn't expect that Pang Bing even knew this road. Huanglong must have planned here for a long time.
Pang Bing shook his fingers, "It's not enough, it's very sufficient. There were our people in Shilu City half a year ago, otherwise how dare I come here as a consultant."
Ye Liu suddenly thought, "Are we digging your corner?"
Pang Bing didn't care. "We have many plans, but the stone furnace is really too long. Now the core combat effectiveness of the Royal Dragon Knights is only a little difficult to defend five cities. It's really not worth the loss for the iron mine expedition here. Speaking of which, your action has helped us a lot."
"Oh, what to say."
"As soon as your group lay on the stone furnace, the guy Yan Yan of the Pompeii League couldn't sleep. A Jiang said that when you pulled up a knighthood, I was shocked," Pang Bing looked at the silent cavalrymen. "I thought you were playing, but I didn't expect it to be better than I thought. You Where did you find this group of guys? I'm afraid Lao Wang will lose two teeth if he wants to eat you.
Although Ye Liu did not know the strength of Huanglong's regiment, Ye Liu could only answer these two words, "Ha ha."
The mountain road of Shilu City is really difficult to walk. The Cangyue Knights walked for two days and one night. Before the arrival of the next evening, they saw the wall of the town.
At this moment, the reaction of the five mercenary regiments of the stone furnace that the enemy has been under the city are also different. Xu Dali restrained his men not to clash with each other and patiently wait for the arrival of blood skeleton reinforcements. Xue Xu, who was originally confident, is now a little at a loss. Like the Golden-scale Mercenary Corps, the other party also receives things. , he rushed back, but he still pretended to be calm in front of Qin Lieyue. Zou Weiyang began to try to continue to set up several mercenary regiments, but no one paid attention to him, and later disappeared.
As for Hu Kewei, that night, in the camp of the Cangyue Knights.
"If Chief Hu said so, it's too unusual. From now on, we will be a family. The Cangyue Knights and the Huanglong are allies, and the Golden scale mercenary Regiment and the Huanglong are also allies. This relationship is not ordinary and deep." Pang Bing said with a smile.
There are many nails planted by Huanglong in the Stone Furnace City. Even one of the largest mercenary regiments in the city is the offline development of Huanglong. After Pang Yue camped outside the city, Pang Bing immediately found Hu Kewei,
Originally, the cold front was going to dry a few local snakes in the city, and then pull a faction and fight a faction to slowly get rid of these local snakes, but now with Hu Kewei, this big undercover agent, the stone furnace, which was originally a stable for Cangyue, has now become directly become easy.
"We Jinli will definitely cooperate fully in this action of Cangyue, which is unambiguous." Hu Ke made a statement here, and Pang Bing has promised him that after taking down the stone furnace, he can be the deputy captain of the Royal Dragon Knights. This treatment is much more beautiful than the angry commander of the two ends of the small mercenary regiment now.
There are countless large and small organizations in Shilu City. Jin scales say that there are five mercenary regiments, but there are only more than 300 people under him. In the two mines, not to mention that they have to pay protection fees to Xu Dali every month, that is, if the miners are bullied, they will pick up the hoe and fight desperately. Anyway, they will die. You can't change places to play again, but the pension and aftercare expenses of your subordinates are not less.
The mercenary regiment in Shilu City said that the regimental commander was killed, and his men led people to Xinlishan, which is not news.
After getting Hu Kewei's information, Leng Feng, Pang Bing, Ye Liu and others made plans overnight, ready to clear the obstacles, occupy the stone furnace as soon as possible, and finish it one day earlier, but they can make a profit one day earlier. Time waits for no one.
After dawn, when the remaining four mercenary regiments in the city received the battle letters, they knew the names of the enemy outside for the first time.
