Chapter 87
"Of course not," Daliang, who thought he was already familiar with Joyce, found a chair and sat opposite her, then picked up a glass of red wine on the table and drank half of it, and then asked for credit: "I just made a great contribution to our Shangjiangcheng. The Admiral must reward me well."
Joyce looked at the wine glass that Daliang had taken a sip, picked it up and threw it into the garbage basket beside him: "You have only been away from me for more than half a day. What great contribution can you make? I advise you not to worry about other nostalgic business and find your troop ship. If they slipped away from your nose, no one can save you."
Daliang smiled and said, "I have already set up a net of heaven and earth on the sea. If I can't find them, I will admit that I'm unlucky. Anyway, Feichen Island was stolen. If it is lost, it may be someone's headache? I want to tell you a big thing today, you will never imagine... Jiading City has started a war against Baoshan City..."
"What!" Hearing this news, Joyce was shocked at first, and then looked disbelieving: "Marquis Stanley of Jiading City is famous for being greedy and stingy. He usually picks up a copper plate on the ground and is happy for a long time. How could he waste his troops to attack Baoshan City for no reason? Don't run to me to ask for soldiers with casual news, tell you... I can't give you a single soldier."
Daliang said: "This is not the news I heard casually. I just came from Jiading City. Marquis Stanley was already ready to go to war with the academies in Baoshan City under my persuasion. A large army of 10,000 zombies are gathering, and I... have been appointed by the Marquis as the head general of this army..."
"Really?"
Joyce had already stood up. He knew that Jiading City used troops to Baoshan City, which meant that the situation in the Shangjiang area had changed greatly, and the situation was developing on the favorable side of Shangjiang City.
What is the support of the Marquis Joshua of Chongming City that he dared to challenge Shangjiang City? In addition to his own strong military power, there are the support of the three sub-cities of the Academy, the Swamp Clan and the Beast Clan. Now that Jiading City is fighting against the Academy Clan in Baoshan City, the three helpers of Chongming City have been deposed, and the external pressure of Shangjiang City will be greatly alleviated.
If Daliang intercepts the troops from Chongming City on the sea, the strength comparison between the two sides will begin to shift towards Shangjiang City.
Of course, all this was based on Da Liang's absence of nonsense. Although Joyce knew that Da Liang would not talk nonsense about such an important matter, she still asked Da Liang in detail how he prompted Marquis Stanley, the city lord who was the most unlikely city lord to use force, to attack Baoshan City.
"The detailed process..."
Daliang knocked on the table, looking at the crystal wine bottle at Joyce's hand, and the red wine inside was as bright as blood.
Joyce smiled and put a wine glass in front of the bright light, then picked up the bottle and poured the red wine into it. The wine smelled so mellow.
"There are not many people in Shangjiang City who can make Admiral pour wine. Now can I tell me how you persuaded Marquis Stanley to attack Baoshan City."
Daliang sipped the red wine generously, and then put the whole bottle in his package without hesitation, and then said: "In fact, Marquis Stanley did not directly attack Baoshan City, but was determined to win the dock at the entrance of the stone cave under Baoshan City. The vanguard 10,000 zombie troops have advanced to the entrance of the stone cave, and the main general is this baron. If all these troops are eliminated, Marquis Stanley will lead the main force of Jiading City to continue attacking the entrance of the stone cave. As for the reason why Marquis Stanley bleed heavily, it is simply for money..."
So, Daliang told Joyce about the money-making plan he had blown out: "This is 'money can make the devil push the mill'. Marquis Stanley has been preparing to fight with the academic sects of Baoshan City in order to have a lot of gold coins in the future. He will never give up the army until he grabs the stone cave. Should we go to Shangjiang City to send troops to respond? After all, you know the financial resources of Jiading City. If you fight hard,... the undead who lacks money may not be the opponent of Baoshan City."
While Daliang was telling, Joyce had already spread a map on the table.
The northwest of Shangjiang City are Baoshan City and Jiading City. If the undead in Jiading City want to land near the river, they must snatch it from Baoshan City.
However, Baoshan City is backed by the Yangtze River and its financial resources are much stronger than Jiading City. It not only has a powerful ground force, but also a small offshore fleet that is quite large and takes into account both Jianghang and HNA. Therefore, it is not easy for the undead to seize a piece of land from Baoshan City.
But if Shangjiang City provides military support...
In fact, as long as the army of Shangjiang City gathers on the border with Baoshan City, and at the same time, the Pudong Fleet sends another fleet to conduct deterrent navigation within the Yangtze River, Baoshan City must use most of its military strength to deal with the threat from the southeast, and then the attack of Jiading City will be much easier.
As for Chongming City’s reaction?
As long as Shangjiang City does not directly participate in the war, then this battle will be a matter between Jiading City and Baoshan City. If Baoshan City was not in danger, Chongming City would never dare to risk the risk of a full-scale war to support Baoshan City.
In other words, it is very feasible to control this battle on a local battlefield and help Jiading City win.
As for... the goods distribution center where Daliang lured the Marquis Stanley to send troops?
Joyce said: "This is a very grand plan. If Jiading City becomes the most important cargo distribution center in the entire Yangtze River Basin, the wealth inside will become unimaginable! Then will they become the second Chongming City in the future?"
As the major shareholder of Shuntong Chamber of Commerce, Daliang certainly did not want to see any obstacles to the establishment of the Jiading Goods Distribution Center. He persuaded: "How could Jiading City become the second Chongming City? You don't know the character of Marquis Stanley. After he has money... should he expand his troops? Or would he pile his castle with jewelry? Moreover, Jiading City is close to Shangjiang City on land, unlike Chongming City that is lonely and difficult to control overseas. The most important thing is, even if Jiading City wants to rebel, who is willing to be an ally with a group of undead? Without support, how can a level 10 city shake the status of Shangjiang City?"
