Chapter 629 You have lived too comfortably and have forgotten how to fight!

The old man opened the bamboo tube and took out the paper strips inside the bamboo tube.

"Hey! The Taro Dynasty actually dispatched the giant whale navy?"

Seeing the content on the note, the old man couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Come to the north? It's the same direction as us!" The old man thought.

The Giant Whale Navy is an elite navy of the Tarot Dynasty. It has not set sail for many years. Now it has suddenly gone to sea, which makes the old man a little confused.

"Yuan Ke, what do you think their target is? You can't be here to catch me, right?" the old man asked.

The big man standing next to him, Yuan Ke, twitched his lips slightly and said, "Master, even if they want to catch you, there is no need to dispatch the Giant Whale Navy!"

The old man glared at him, "Do you think it's a teacher worthy of their dispatch of the Giant Whale Navy?"

"No, the disciple means that it's useless for them to dispatch the Giant Whale Navy. In front of the master, the Giant Whale Navy is a Mixed Fish Navy, which is not worth mentioning at all!" Yuan Ke's silly face showed a flattering smile. , slapped a secretly flattering hand.

The old man immediately smiled, "You are right, the bullshit giant whale navy is just a group of fish, and it is not enough to see in front of the master!"

"But what are their goals?"

"If it weren't for me, then what else is there worth the Tarot Dynasty dispatching the giant whale navy?"

"Will that old thing Xiang Anxu also be on the Giant Whale Navy's ship?"

Yuan Ke thought for a while and said, "They may be for Xingyue Island!"

"Xingyue Island?" the old man asked in surprise: "Have you received other news?"

Yuan Ke explained: "I heard before that the Tarot Royal Court has always wanted to expand the maritime trade in the north, and the most prosperous force in the maritime trade in the north is Xingyue Island!"

"If they want to develop the northern sea trade, they will definitely not be able to bypass Xingyue Island!"

The old man nodded, "You are right. It should be that Xiang Anxu, the old guy, wants to conquer Xingyue Island!"

"How strong is Xingyue Island?"

Yuan Ke shook his head slightly, "I don't know very well. The Yang family on Xingyue Island and the Zhu family on Dihuo Island are very close. In fact, their strength should be similar to that on Dihuo Island. Even if it is weaker, it should not be much weaker. And it is said that Xingyue Darong's support is still behind the Yama Yang family! "

The Yang family on Xingyue Island has a great reputation in the southeastern and southern waters of Darong, but its reputation in the Wanli Sea is not very famous.

The Wanli Sea is too vast, and the Yangjia Trading fleet's range of activities is only in the northwest of the Wanli Sea.

That is, the forces near Xingyue Island have a relatively good understanding of Xingyue Island, while the farther forces only understand Xingyue Island on the surface.

"So, Xingyue Island's strength is not weak!" said the old man.

The Zhu family in Dihuo Island is much more famous in the sea of ​​thousands of miles than the Yang family in Xingyue Island. In the old man's mind, the Zhu family in Dihuo Island is still relatively strong. The Yang family in Xingyue Island can be compared with the Zhu family, which means that the Yang family The strength is not weak either.

"Not necessarily, maybe it's because of the support of Darong behind Xingyue Island!" Yuan Ke said.

The old man shook his head, "Darong, if it were the Darong in the past, it would still be a little scary, but now Darong, haha, just an old dragon, they would have been unable to get out of the sea!"

Among the many forces in the western part of the Thousand Miles of the Sea, Darong is a giant, but not all forces are afraid of this giant.

Just like the Tarot Dynasty, they may not dare to go to Darong to cause trouble, but they will not be afraid of Darong on the sea.

Similarly, the Zhang Dynasty was the same.

The old man in front of him is Zhang Juhai, the powerful Zhang Dynasty of the Zhang Dynasty. The Zhang Dynasty and the Taro Dynasty are old enemies. The closest distance between the two dynasties is less than thirty miles.

In order to compete for the right to trade territory and sea areas, these two dynasties often broke out in tragic wars.

The specific location of the Zhang Dynasty is almost south of Xingyue Island, and the Tarot Dynasty is slightly easterly, almost southeast of Xingyue Island.

Why does Xingyue Island not develop maritime trade south? It is because these two guys often break out in wars, which makes that area of ​​sea area almost a forbidden zone for maritime merchants.

No maritime businessman is willing to go to trade at the risk of being affected by war. It is light to lose all his money. If you are not careful, you may even lose your life there.

"Do you want to go to the Xingyue Island Gang? Since the Tarot Dynasty wants to attack Xingyue Island, can we win over Xingyue Island?"

"The enemy's enemy is a friend!"

"Haha, let's go and make friends with Xingyue Island!"

"I like to make friends the most!"

Zhang Juhai laughed.

He is willing to make a kick as long as it can cause trouble to the Tarot Dynasty.

For him, the greatest joy of life was to cause trouble for the Tarot Dynasty and embarrass that old guy Xiang Anxu.

...

Earth Fire Island, in the Zhu Family City.

The Zhu family’s big city is a city, and the descendants of the Zhu family live in the city. A family needs a city to live in, which shows how many descendants of the Zhu family are.

The Zhu family is such a strange existence. On Dihuo Island, the Zhu family is the master, and people with other surnames are slaves.

For those with other surnames, giving them the Zhu surname is the most glorious gift.

There is also a strict hierarchy within the Zhu family. If the branches of the innate warriors are in their own way, they can become the legitimate lineage. Once the innate warriors die, the legitimate lineage will become a side branch.

Once it becomes a legitimate lineage, the descendants of this branch can enter the power center of the Zhu family.

After the death of the innate warriors, these descendants will gradually withdraw from the power center.

Therefore, a unique hierarchy system has been formed within the Zhu family.

The direct lineage, the collateral branch whose ancestors have produced innate warriors, and the collateral branch whose ancestors have not produced innate warriors.

This hierarchy seems to respect the innate warriors, but in fact, those branches firmly control the power of the Zhu family.

Because power represents resources, and resources are easy to give birth to strong people.

Once a congenital warrior appears in a collateral branch, the descendants of this branch can obtain a large amount of training resources, and the descendants of this branch will also have a better future.

So the final result is that there are four branches of the Zhu family that always control the power of the Earth Fire Island, and most of the innate warriors cultivated by the Zhu family come from these four branches.

As for the saying that those with outstanding talents can change their fate, don't joke. The class within the Zhu family has long been solidified, and they do not allow geniuses outside the four direct lines to grow up.

This is also the reason why Yang Zhengshan despises the Zhu family the most.

However, it doesn't matter whether Yang Zhengshan likes it or not. The Zhu family has been passed down for hundreds of years, so naturally they have their advantages.

Today, the Zhu family still has three masters, the eldest master Zhu Bowen, the second master Zhu Changxing, and the third master Zhu Yanshan. The original eldest master passed away, and the following masters took over in order, so Zhu Changxing changed from the third master to the second master.

In the study of the Zhu family mansion, Zhu Changxing held a wolf hair brush and splashed ink wantonly.

In a blink of an eye, the four big characters "Cang Hai Heng Liu" appeared on the rice paper.

Zhu Yanshan, who was next to him, looked at the four big characters and pulled his messy beard. He had a big beard on his chin, and his physique was extremely tall, more than two meters tall. His pair of strong arms were thicker than the thighs of ordinary people. He wore a short shirt, revealing his dark and strong arms, and his bulging muscles were like anvils.

"Third brother, how do I write this?" Zhu Changxing said with a smug look.

Zhu Yanshan looked at the big characters on the rice paper for a long time, and finally said a word, "Good!"

"Just good?" Zhu Changxing felt dissatisfied with his answer.

"Uh, very good!"

"..."

Zhu Changxing threw down the brush with some boredom, "Can't you read more books?"

"Second brother, our Zhu family makes a living by forging iron, and reading is not as good as forging iron!" Zhu Yanshan said very reasonably.

Zhu Changxing was completely speechless.

Although this is true, it is still good to read more books.

As for forging iron, haha, he, the second master of the Zhu family, has never liked forging iron.

No mistakes, one sentence, one content, one content, one 6, one book, one bar, take a look!

"Forget it, have you finished the things I asked you to make?" Zhu Changxing didn't want to gossip with this fool, so he talked about business directly.

"It's done, I'll get it for you!"

Zhu Yanshan didn't wait for Zhu Changxing to agree, and ran out of the study directly. A moment later, he walked in with an eight-foot-long spear.

The spear was eight feet long, much taller than Zhu Yanshan. It was dark black, with a sharp tip. A few inches below the blade was a small round plate with a blade on it. There was an iron spike at the end of the spear, which was four inches long.

The tip of the spear was all black, as if it had no edge at all.

If you only look at the appearance, there is nothing special about this spear. It is not gorgeous at all, just ordinary.

Zhu Yanshan pounded the spear into the ground like he was offering a treasure, and the heavy iron spike at the end of the spear immediately smashed the thick floor tiles.

"Second brother, look, this is the heavy black iron spear that I spent a month to make!"

"The spear is eight feet and three inches long and weighs two thousand four hundred and eighty-two pounds. The spear tip is made of high-quality black iron, which is forged in the way we forge earth fire steel. I call it earth fire black iron steel!"

"The spear shaft is made of half black iron and half Qingshan copper essence. After 100,000 times of forging, it is integrated into one. It is not only solid and heavy, but also has good elasticity!"

As he said this, he shook the spear shaft, and the spear shaft shook, and it actually showed a foot-wide arc.

"And the tail, although it is only four inches long, but this iron spike weighs two hundred and thirty pounds, which is enough to break gold and crack stone when it hits it."

"It took me more than half a year to forge this. Every hammer is just right, and every detail has been carefully studied by me!"

He put on an appearance of being very powerful, second brother, come and praise me.

However, Zhu Changxing kept looking at the floor tiles on the ground.

One, two, three, stones, damn, these are all top-grade blue-white jade, each worth a thousand taels of silver, and most importantly, the blue-white jade floor tiles in this room are all cut from a large piece of jade, with the same quality, color, and texture, and there is no replacement at all.

"Stop it, you idiot!" Zhu Changxing really couldn't bear it anymore.

"Ah!" Zhu Yanshan was a little confused.

Zhu Changxing wanted to cry but had no tears, "Take your gun and get out!"

His blue-white jade, either all replaced, or just replaced with a few similar jades like a patch.

Most people may not be able to see the difference, but he can see it himself.

Zhu Yanshan looked at his angry second brother and was a little confused.

But he still walked out of the study with a long gun in hand.

"Wait, send the gun to Brother Yang on Xingyue Island. We can't help with the matter on Shenmu Island now, so we'll give Brother Yang a handy weapon to help him!" Zhu Changxing said.

"Okay!" Zhu Yanshan replied, and then ran away with big strides.

The second brother is angry. If he doesn't run, he will be beaten. It's better to run first!

...

Inside the Xingyue Island government office.

"Dad, I found out that Shenmu Island is not relying on Jiuxing Island, but the Tarot Dynasty. It is said that the giant whale navy of the Tarot Dynasty has arrived at the outer waters of Shenmu Island, and they may attack at any time!"

Yang Mingzhi stood beside Yang Zhengshan and said in a deep voice.

No one on Xingyue Island took Shenmu Island to heart. In their opinion, Shenmu Island provoked Xingyue Island and was to destroy it.

But they were still cautious when facing the Tarot Dynasty.

There is an essential difference between the dynasty and the island forces, and this difference mainly comes from population and resources.

An island force has a population of only one million, and it is already considered as the most powerful navy with 30,000 to 50,000 navy.

But the population of a dynasty is basically over 10 million. Perhaps the high-end force is similar, but the gap between the navy and the army is still very big.

Then there is resources. This resource is not only a cultivation resource, but also various useful resources, such as the wood required for shipbuilding. If all the trees on Xingyue Island are cut down, a big lucky ship cannot be built.

A big blessing ship requires thousands of towering trees. How can there be so many towering trees on Xingyue Island?

So the ships owned by Xingyue Island were all bought from Darong.

The gap in population and resources has irreparable disadvantages between island forces and dynasty forces.

"Tarot Dynasty? They won't fight with the Zhang Dynasty?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"It seems that there has been no war for two years!" Yang Mingzhi said.

Yang Zhengshan thought for a while and said, "The Tarot Dynasty is indeed a trouble, but there is no need to worry too much. Let's wait until the navy of Tenglong Guard comes!"

"I'm afraid that before the Tenglong Guard's navy arrived, the Tarot Dynasty and Shenmu Island navy came first!" Yang Mingzhi said with some concern.

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and said calmly, "Come on, come on, you have been living too safe all these years, and you have almost forgotten your ability to fight!"

There are only two thousand navy masters in Xingyue Island, so they naturally cannot be compared with the giant whale navy of the Tarot Dynasty.

However, Xingyue Island has a population of more than 30,000, most of them are warriors, and they are warriors who have undergone basic military training.

On the sea, Xingyue Island may not be the opponent of the Giant Whale Navy, but on Xingyue Island, as long as the Giant Whale Navy dares to land on the island, it will become meat on the chopping board.

"What do dad mean?" Yang Mingzhi asked in surprise.

"Take everyone out to practice. It's not impossible to live a stable life, but you must always be prepared for battle!"

"It's just the right time to take the opportunity to sharpen their proud aura!"
