Alien Lord

Chapter 2148: Rivalry

In ordinary times, Houhai relied on its powerful navy to block the danger of coming to the ocean. From time to time, it would also take the initiative to attack, clearing some of the most threatening pirate legions and marine beasts.

However, in recent years, with the turmoil of the livelihood of neighboring countries, a large number of ordinary poor people have either become migrants or become pirates in the sea, which has greatly strengthened the power of pirates, and the number of pirates has also increased sharply in recent years. .

   If the number of pirate groups around Houhai was ten in the past, then now it is directly two hundred.

The rapid increase to the pirate team led to the increasing threat that Houhai now faces. The Navy of Houhai has not had much time to rest in recent years. Going to squat pirates here today, and rescue siege from pirates tomorrow Merchant ships or islanders, etc., the day after tomorrow, they have to **** the Lingshi ship to return to the land and the location of the Lingshi mine...

   Continuous operation makes the navy of Houhai now exhausted. If this continues, it will be a 100% problem.

   Other problems are okay, at most it is a loss, but if the ocean and the Lingshi mine on the island are in danger, it will really endanger the country of Houhai.

  Why the Houhai Kingdom can continue to exist under the threat of how many powerful countries around it? The biggest reason is not because of the seabed and these spirit stone mines on the islands.

Every year after the Hai Kingdom unearthed from these spirit mines, seven layers were treated as protection fees, and half of the other three layers were also spent in the surrounding countries to purchase some Military materials, daily necessities, luxury goods and the like, the last thing that can be left is a layer of five or so.

   Therefore, although there are many spirit stone mines in Houhai, there is not much left. Therefore, the surrounding countries are jealous, but they are not so jealous that they send troops to capture Houhai.

   Of course, these countries do not fight Houhai State's doctrine. In addition to the support of the powerful countries behind Houhai State, the biggest reason is that the nine-layer spirit stone mines of Houhai State are located on the seabed and surrounding islands.

  If these spirit stone mines are located inland, then these countries have already conquered Houhai.

   It's just that these spirit stone mines are located on the sea floor and islands, which makes it extremely difficult to mine. If you don't have special personnel to mine, you can't mine spirit stones at all.

   Even if the spirit stone is mined, the problems are not small, such as the transportation route, as well as the protection of the spirit stone mine, and the protection of the transportation ship, etc., are not small problems.

The wild beasts are extremely sensitive to the spirit stone. They can smell the spirit stone hundreds of miles away, and the number of aquatic wild beasts in the ocean is much larger than the number of wild beasts on the land, so, Every mined stone mine faces the threat of countless wild beasts.

  If you want to mine Lingshi mine safely, you must first solve the threat of these aquatic beasts, which is obviously an extremely difficult thing.

   looks like the Houhai Kingdom, and it has only been through some thousands of years, and after spending countless blood and lessons, has some countermeasures.

  However, even if this is the case, the number of warriors dying in the Hai Kingdom due to the attacks of these sea beasts every year does not fall below 10,000.

   This is a 10,000 warriors, but not more than 10,000 soldiers. The loss is huge. It is conceivable.

   This is also why there are so many spirit mines in Houhai, but the number and quality of the domestic warriors are not stronger than those from neighboring countries. The number of warriors lost every year in Houhai is really too large.

   Also, when transporting spirit stones, it is inevitable to face the threat of countless pirates.

  The location of the Houhai Kingdom Spirit Stone Mine is not a secret for those pirates. Even when the Spirit Stones are transported, they cannot be concealed.

   Therefore, as soon as the Spirit Ship began to transport, the countless pirates, like smelling a **** smell of wolves, gathered around and attacked.

  Perhaps in these thirty or forty attacks, it became one or two attacks, and the others failed.

   However, even if there are only one or two successes, it is enough for those pirates, because each success brings millions of spirits even millions.

   For millions and millions of spirit stones, those pirates can do everything and are willing to give everything for it.

   Therefore, every time the transportation of spirit stones is a big battle, it also causes tens of thousands of soldiers to die every year.

With more than 10,000 warriors, and the loss of tens of thousands of soldiers, the number of spirit stones he got was not much. On the contrary, he had to break his mind. In this case, it is better to let Houhai face it. All this, anyway, they will not reduce the number of spirit stones, even if they are less than they mined, but it is not much, so, so far, these countries have not sent troops to capture Houhai.

   In the past, Houhai State could insist, but in recent decades, the appropriate amount of pirate legions around Houhai State has risen sharply, and there is no weakening drive until now, but there are more and more signs.

  The current naval power of Houhai State can no longer be maintained. Therefore, Houhai State is planning to expand the naval strength, and if you want to expand the navy, you must first have a warship. This is not the case, Houhai State will come here to buy warships.

The Houtang Kingdom, the most dead enemy of the Houhai Kingdom, is also well aware of this. They don’t care about the threats of the pirates facing the Houhai Kingdom, even they can’t wait for the Houhai Kingdom to be swallowed up by those pirates, because then, They can take advantage of it.

   Therefore, at the auction of the war flying boat, the third princess of the Tang Dynasty was doing everything possible to make trouble for the Houhai Kingdom and constantly raising the price of the war flying boat, because she knew that even if the price was even higher, the Houhai Kingdom had to buy it.

   Of course, the third princess is just making trouble, and when a certain price is reached, she will let go.

One is that she has already bought a warship, completed the mission, and then bought it at a high price, then she will not only be commended by the emperor, but will also be severely reprimanded, maybe she will not be in the future. Responsible for the auction house, this is definitely the last thing I want to see for the three princesses.

   Therefore, in order to avoid Houhai's price being too high, and directly abandon the bidding, the three princesses generally would not raise the price too much, so as not to lift the stone and hit their feet.

   Seeing one of the most threatening competitors withdraw, the heart of the Prince of Houhai could not help but secretly relieved.

In this bidding, Prince Li knew the thoughts of Princess Tang Guo afterwards. He knew she was only here to make trouble for him. Once the price reached a certain level, Princess III would give up, so for Prince Li The biggest threat is actually the strong barbarian.

   Now, the barbarian strongman has launched this bidding, and the war flying boat is more than nine layers.

However, even if this is the case, Prince Li is not easy here, his brows are always frowned, because this guy is really too difficult to tie, he does not know what the final price will be, this three princess is only Will let go.

Prince Li actually wanted to let go of this, so as to give a good-looking look to the princess of Tang Dynasty, who didn’t know what happened, but when thinking of the current situation in the country, especially the increasing threat of pirates, Prince Li finally calmed down. He knew that this time he had to be fooled.

Now that the matter has been decided, Prince Li no longer hides, he immediately whispered to the second prince who followed him here, "Hai'er, if the third princess bids, you directly bid 2100000 spirit stones Now, our opponent only has this one, and you know the domestic situation. Therefore, we must win this warship, and we must not make any wrong decision because of our anger for a while.

   It's clear that those guys in the Tang Dynasty and us hated you. They were so eager that we would be destroyed by pirates. So, even if the three princesses provoked you again, you should ignore it, let alone be fooled. Need to know, the most important task for us to come here this time is to buy the warship. Do you understand? "

In order to avoid the second prince making mistakes, Prince Li continued to stress.

   "Yes, Uncle, I understand that this top warship belongs to our Zhou family, and no one can take it away!"

  The second prince Zhou Chenhai responded with a deep voice, his tone was heavy, and he was extremely confident!

   This time ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The third princess raised her hand in a smile and shouted loudly: "2010000 spirit stone!"

Seeing the third princess holding up the bidding card in his hand, the second prince Zhou Chenhai first glanced at the three princesses with hatred. Then he immediately raised the bidding plate in his hand and shouted loudly: "We bid 2100000 Spirit Stone, you follow again!"

   "Boom...", the atmosphere in the auction hall was detonated again, and countless arguments sounded, warm and lasting.

   followed, and there were exclamations throughout the audience!

   "It's really amazing, I can't think of it now breaking through to the price of 2.1 million spirit stones, today I am really right!!"

   "The bidding price of a war flying boat is actually more than 2 million. It is not enough. Now it hits 2.1 million spirit stones directly. This.........this...this is a crazy day!"

   "It seems that the Tang Dynasty really forced the Houhai Kingdom to miserable, leading to such a direct price increase now, hey, this auction today is really wonderful!"

   "After the grievances between the Tang Dynasty and the Houhai Kingdom, I believe this price is not the final price. The heart of the third princess is very dark!"

  As this person said, this price is not the final price. ...
