Chapter 883 - 972: About the Brother Countries Finding a Treasure in the Desert
CHAPTER 883: CHAPTER 972: ABOUT THE BROTHER COUNTRIES FINDING A TREASURE IN THE DESERT
The first stop has arrived, so now we need to plan the route and subsequent plans.
As for the route, there’s actually a lot to consider. Why do I say this? Somewhere in the East includes more than 20 countries, with a very large area, and there’s constant warfare here, making it very chaotic. The wealthy areas are extremely rich, while the poor areas, well, it’s oil-rich; once extracted, it’s transported away without a trace.
So the route must definitely head toward those wealthy areas.
Yang Yang drew a circle on the map again, "The range within this circle is our retreat route, and if there’s any danger or if we carry too much and can’t take it away, we’ll head into this circle. It’s also our temporary storage."
To be honest, although the force they’re bringing is very strong, it’s not as strong as a country. Besides, after acquiring, no, I mean blessing, the goods here, shouldn’t we plan the retreat and backup routes in advance?
This is one of their backup plans.
Yang Yang continued, "Within the radius of this circle, we’re under Old Yi’s protection, around 1400 kilometers, so keep that in mind."
Everyone nodded in understanding, and some even rolled their eyes internally. Half of the East Capital is included, does this mean they intend to act recklessly? Before coming, Jing Shu did her homework, so she understood what this implied.
Why does Old Zhou trust this place so much? He even dares to store the blessed goods here?
Speaking of this, we have to mention our four brother countries, those with extremely good relations.
Someone might ask, even in the apocalypse, do they still care about brotherhood? Yes, they really do, the relations between brother countries get even better in the apocalypse.
If anything happens, just shout in these countries that you’re a Huaxia person, and the hospitality will soar, even food comes free of charge.
So, when they set out this time, if something happens like being chased or attacked by missiles, Old Yi would probably be eager to protect them. Even if nothing happens, Old Yi would be anxious for something good to happen just to have a reason.
So, if they really store the goods here first, by the time they leave, they might even find that the goods have mysteriously increased.
Why, you ask? It’s pretty simple.
Let’s skip the other messy details and just mention old Yi, who’s been subject to warfare for years. It’s ridiculous how much they were bullied back in the day.
Eventually, though, Old Yi diligently studied and equipped his military with firm power through continual effort, and even developed extremely advanced hypersonic projectiles.
Even in the apocalypse, this weapon of Old Yi’s not only has supersonic speed but also terminal maneuverability, meaning it can change trajectory or targets,
Sounds unimpressive? But you know the iron dome of Old Yi, the best in defense, can’t even defend against this thing.
Although, to Huaxia, these weapons aren’t that distinct, merely several generations behind. Exactly how many generations behind it is, Jing Shu isn’t sure. She only asked Old Zhou at the time:
"Even this version of the weapon can strut, what version is Huaxia at now?"
Old Zhou sighed, "Even if the apocalypse comes, we can’t lag in weapons. Falling behind means getting beaten, so we’ve updated our versions a few generations. As for how far it can hit, eh, not that powerful, point anywhere you like."
Jing Shu swallowed nervously, Point anywhere?
Yang Yang squinted and smiled, "I can’t say, it’s a national secret, but it’s very, very far."
Jing Shu nodded knowingly.
In any case, Old Yi, through relentless effort and guidance from benefactors, has advanced significantly in anti-ship cruise technology; his military is strong enough that no one dares bully him.
Someone might question: Old Yi had no wind tunnel, yet overcame aerodynamic challenges, making advanced weapons, how is that possible???
Well, good fortune; one day, he picked up a manual in the desert, brought it home, and, guided by benefactors, finished copying a test from zero to a hundred.
No need to ask, just benefactor guidance and luck finding treasure in the desert.
What? You think finding a treasure in the desert is rare? Didn’t Old Ba also find a similar item in the desert? Is that surprising?
Besides, Old Saudi even found an East Wind Express there too, did they say anything?
So, with weapons and backing, the confidence is high, and after drawing the circle, Yang Yang and the others started detailed planning.
They made a total of four major plans, A, B, C, and D, with countless branch plans.
After finishing, the group split into two teams, first docking in the small country of Masi.
A number of ships docked at the shore, and several warships hid behind, ready to act. Clearly, to lure fat sheep, warships should not be revealed, or else who would take the bait?
Jing Shu brought most of her forces with her, leaving almost no one on the ship, except for those needed for reception and operation, with the rest protected by the rotten mermaids.
Even both Xiao Wei and Wen Jun Guo Tou came along. As a coward, Jing Shu’s first action after landing was to instruct Xiao Wei’s insects to settle in.
For days, Xiao Wei had laid countless eggs waiting to hatch upon landing. With this cunning maneuver, every step she takes, the digger insects must also dig. The other insects remain hidden for now, while Xiao Wei continues in her spherical vehicle.
Masi is a chaotic, neutral small country, a mixture of dragons and snakes, with quick information flow. Given its proximity to the coast, and vast coastline, it’s also a hub for petroleum and rotten corpse insects and other materials.
There’s a lot of trading here.
Due to frequent chaos and warfare, this place is now jointly controlled by multiple countries, banning weapons for the past year, which has been maintained quite well.
But today’s dock is unusually lively, with people of all colors stopping their work to watch dozens of deep-draft ships dock, while a group of elaborately dressed people disembark.
They even brought their own bus, driving to the city center right after disembarking.
As mentioned earlier, this place is governed collectively by multiple countries, so many forces have seen this, spreading the news instantly.
In the reception hall of Masi Official.
Old Zhou wore a tidy suit today, slicking his gray hair back, looking quite like a chairman or tycoon.
And as the eldest daughter of the Zhou family and Old Zhou’s most beloved offspring, Jing Shu happily linked arms with him. Today, she certainly took luxury to its extremes.
