On the coast of Juxiang, a huge fleet anchored in a calm bay.

In the simple tent on the coast, Ke Qing sneezed involuntarily.

"Why is the wind and sand here so strong? This is close to the seaside..." She muttered softly.

At this time, a Xumi scholar in robes strode in and said in a deep voice: "Lord Keqing, the preliminary survey results are out."

Keqing perked up and asked quickly: "How is it?"

The scholar shook his head, "The amount of sediment in the estuary here is too large, and several nearby survey sites do not have the conditions to be used as deep-water ports."

Keqing nodded, "As expected... How is the exploration of the waterway leading to Blade Linze?"

"The exploration team moved along the river and found that the river was too shallow and narrow. It had to be widened and deepened on a large scale before it could be used for shipping. What's even more terrible is that the river was interrupted in a cave." The scholar replied.

"Interrupted?"

"Yes. However, the exploration team found that the location of the interruption is not far from the main river of Blade Linze, only about a few hundred meters. If a tunnel can be dug, it should be able to connect to the main river, but the amount of work will be huge..."

Keqing waved her hand and said: "Don't worry about the amount of work. Support from Mondstadt will be here in a few days..."

"Mond? Ah! Is Miss Kelly coming?" The scholar's eyes instantly became fanatical.

"Yes, Mondstadt has agreed to my invitation... By the way, can you not put on such an idiotic expression as soon as you heard that Keli was coming? Ms. Keli's guardian, Mr. Abedo, has doubted you more than once. These guys are plotting evil against Keli..." Ke Qing complained speechlessly.

The scholar had no intention of restraining himself at all, but said confidently: "You have no idea how much impact Miss Keli has had on the academic research of our Miaolun sect! Regarding the application of explosions in engineering, these few has become the most popular research direction within the school! There are teachers and students in the school who have spontaneously formed a support group for Miss Keli! Believe it or not, if I send back the news that Miss Keli participated in this project, the entire Chaha Is Valor College going to move here?"

Keqing looked at him with black lines on her head and said, "You'd better just talk. If you dare to cause trouble for me, I'll kick you back to Xumi City!"

Seeing his immediate boss getting angry, the scholar finally regained his consciousness and hurriedly lowered his head and admitted his mistake.

He was about to continue reporting the survey results when suddenly an officer from the Qianyan Army rushed into the tent and reported urgently: "Lord Keqing, a fleet is coming from the north and has already approached our fleet! Look at the style of the ships. , should be from Fontaine!”

Keqing did not dare to neglect, quickly picked up the sword from the table and said: "Let's go! Return to the fleet immediately!"

----------

Fontainebleau is an out-and-out island country, but its island is not an island like Inazuma, but a Thousand Island Lake model.

The entire Fontainebleau is located on a large plateau lake hundreds of meters above the sea level. Water transportation is very developed. However, because the waters of Fontainebleau are mostly inland lakes, unlike the sea, the boats used are similar to the inland river boats of various countries and cannot be used for long-sea shipping. . Of course, it would be unrealistic for those large mechanical ships to be moved down from a plateau hundreds of meters high.

Hailu Port, located under the plateau, is Fontaine's largest foreign trade port. Basically, ships that can travel on oceans are anchored in this port.

It was this fleet that met the Liyue expedition fleet this time.

The Fontaine people have always been mild-mannered, keen on dramatic arts and mechanical engineering. They do not even have a standing army in the country. If they dare to suddenly attack the Liyue expedition fleet, Ke Qing will never believe it. It is just out of caution that as the chief officer She still had to return to the fleet, communicate with the Fontaine people, and find out their intentions.

However, she knew as soon as she returned to the flagship that communication could be dispensed with. Because among the two guests waiting on the flagship, Niwa, dressed in the costume of the Great Sage Sumeru, was among them!

The moment she saw Niyu, Keqing was so aggrieved that her eyes turned red.

This guy! After going to Xumi for more than half a year, it would be fine if he didn't come back, and he even got a woman to come back and give orders! In the end, she was transferred all the way from Liyue to eat sand with a piece of paper! This kind of boyfriend should really be hung up on a telephone pole to dry!

Keqing has always been sassy and resolute in her actions. This is the first time Niyu has seen her show such an expression after knowing her for so long. His heart suddenly thumps and he secretly thinks it is not good.

To be honest, when he originally arranged for Xinhai to return to Liyue to take command, he thought about it for a long time before making this decision.

He himself has to contact various countries and conduct diplomatic activities. He can take charge of the overall situation on his behalf and arrange for tens of thousands of troops and millions of various materials from various countries to be transported and assembled from different ports through different channels to the Juxiang coast in an orderly manner without causing any trouble. Yes, after thinking about it, I really only have my heart.

Don’t think that logistics scheduling is simple! In military command, 70% of the time is spent on logistics dispatch! Those who can carry tens of thousands of troops around safely without any problems are top talents, not to mention those who go abroad to fight, which is thousands of miles away!

After making this decision, Niyu secretly worshiped all the gods he knew, hoping that nothing would happen to his heart when he went to Liyue. But now it seems that worshiping those people really doesn’t work!

After muttering in his heart for a long time, he still bravely spoke first: "Aqing, let's get to know each other. This is Mr. Navilette, the highest judge of Fontaine. Mr. Navilette deserves a lot of credit for Fontaine's agreement to help this time. without."

Navilette bowed solemnly and said hello to Keqing calmly.

Keqing could only glare at Niyu quietly, and then received the guests in the most appropriate and generous manner.

The two parties sat down respectively, and the waiter quickly brought tea and cakes.

The two parties briefly exchanged greetings, and Niyu immediately started talking about business, "The abyssal monsters are currently entrenched in the Tani Black Abyss area, and the abyssal fissures there are still expanding. This problem must be solved as soon as possible. The desert roads are difficult to travel and supplies are difficult. If you want to support an army of tens of thousands in an invasion, waterways are not feasible."

"Our Liyue Yuhengxing General Office Land Construction completed the Guili New City in three years, which shocked the whole world. Now that she is here, it should not be a big problem to quickly build a small port on the Sumeru coast as an advance base."

"In the future, we plan to open up the waterway to Blade Forest and use the canal to transport supplies to the front line, which should be able to support the army's operations."

"Of course, as the saying goes, a food feeder who travels thousands of miles away is never full. With Fontaine's support nearby, our logistics pressure will definitely be reduced a lot. It would be even better if we could get some help from manpower and construction machinery..."

Villette was about to respond when he suddenly looked at the window thoughtfully.

The originally bright sunlight outside the window is quickly dimming!

Niyu stood up suddenly, rushed out of the cabin in one stride, and looked at the western sky.

In the dusk, a black tide is rising into the sky!
