I came to this world to open the way

Due to the urgent situation along the coast, the Chu fleet retreated quickly, trying to stabilize the mainland first.

For a while, it seems that the voice and momentum of the Northern Kingdom against Chu have increased again?

Not only did many northern tycoons waver, but even some prominent families whose interests had been compromised and who harbored resentment in the Southern Chu State's ruled area also sent their concubine sons to the north to place bets.

However, Li Long, who personally sits in Xuzhou, clearly regards him as a clown. He clearly knows that under the surging undercurrent, some foolish moves.

This is because the battlefield is advancing too fast, and the domestic governance has not yet worked hard, and the new Great Chu Empire has only been less than two years old.

Especially the local tyrants in Xuzhou and Yuzhou, who are still not confident in the rule of Great Chu, and there are many people who can't discern the general trend.

For the list reported by Qin Tianjian, Li Long chose to press it. After all, he didn't make any obvious moves. The so-called capital enemies are also the default game of the aristocratic family.

Of course, Li Long will keep this list forever. In the future when the world is stable, it will be justifiable to deal with them again.

The population of Bianzhou, as well as the development of Great Chu in the future, all need these disobedient and powerful families to do it.

Even Li Long still had some good intentions, and there would be more restless powerful families, because every powerful family would rely on a large number of peripheral population, and they were the main force for pioneering.

Facing the "sudden" appearance of the combined fleet of twelve island states, Li Long not only did not let the Central Route Army back to aid the East Road, but instead ordered Li Yanzhang to continue northward to Yanzhou, and the Qi and Jin dynasties fought together.

Not to mention that you can't stop it on land, but that Chu State has not yet made any moves on the sea.

At present, the First Fleet of Chu State is in charge of the sea battle in the east to attack Qi. Especially when Donghai County has become a tug-of-war battlefield set up by Qi State, landing on Qingzhou mainland from the sea has become an indispensable strategy for attacking Qi State.

Of course, Li Long could also choose to stay on the battlefield in Donghai County. Anyway, after Yanzhou was captured in the middle, the Xuzhou defense line that Qi spent a lot of national power to set up became a burden.

But right now the overseas princes are actually uniting with the Northern Kingdom, so Li Long doesn't want to be polite. His navy in the Great Chu has been recharging their energy for a long time.

At the beginning of the establishment of the navy, the strength of the First Fleet was not weak. It had 2 sailors, nine large ships, 81 fighting ships, and 120 small ships of various types.

Now after the supplement after the unification of the south, the strength of the entire First Fleet has now been doubled, especially the main building ships in the naval battle now have 0 ships. .xxbiquge.c[-]m

Although it was still far inferior to the menacing United Fleet, Chu State had never transferred the Second and Third Fleets to the battlefield in the East China Sea.

The strength of the Second Fleet is slightly weaker than that of the First Fleet, and it is usually responsible for the defense and guarding of the Yangtze River Basin. In fact, there is nothing wrong with the current stable state of Chu.

The third fleet is the weakest on the surface, because it is the navy's reserve fleet, and it usually trains in major inland lakes such as Yunmengze.

This fleet has more than [-] large and small ships, and tens of thousands of sailors, but it has not experienced many water battles and cannot be used to great effect.

The Battle of Huainan was the third fleet's first water battle, but it wasn't too intense. The Pengcheng Navy surrendered when they saw the situation was bad.

Adding up the three fleets, in terms of strength and warships, the Chu State Navy is nothing short of a combined fleet.

However, in terms of actual combat power, Admiral Bao Yuansi gave Li Long the bottom line. According to the current situation of coastal attacks, if there is a direct naval battle, the winning rate is only [-]%.

Every important port city along the coast is defended by some naval ships, but in this raid by the overseas fleet, it suffered a lot of losses.

Li Long understands that after all, it depends on the navy to gain a foothold in the sea, and it is normal for the Daozhou fleet to be stronger than the Chu navy.

Bao Yuansi not only talked about the comparison of actual tactics and combat power, but also pointed out the shortcomings of the ships in the match. The small warships of the second and third fleets were not of great use.

In naval battles, the battle was still about the number of ships. The United Fleet had close to a hundred ships, and the combined fleet of Chu State was less than sixty.

Fortunately, new weapons such as Shenwei cannon, heavy armor-piercing bed crossbow, and kerosene bombs have all been moved to the upper ship, so the navy admiral Bao Yuansi still gave a [-]% winning rate.

For the huge Chu Empire, this winning rate is too low. If the naval battle fails, it will inevitably affect the process of unifying the north.

Many ministers of military affairs, including Zhang Ding'an, wrote a letter asking Li Long to be patient and wait for the north to be unified before taking action overseas.

The court of Chu State and even the people of Chu State are very confident in the unification of the Great Chu, and think that there is no need to worry at all.

Li Long's successive conquests over the past few years have provoked some people to privately say that they are militaristic, which also explains the military character in the year name of Shenwu.

No hurries?

Li Long was indeed in a hurry. The God of Haotian clearly issued an oracle that he must win 36 states within ten years.

The last tide of spiritual energy was a complete recovery, and the entire Yuanyan world expanded countless times, which is also called a change of heaven by the world.

The geographical expansion brought about by the changes in the sky does not change much the place where human civilization exists, but there are some unavoidable omissions, such as ghosts, monsters, suddenly raised mountains, enlarged lakes, and so on.The outside world is no longer recognizable, but in essence, there is no difference between the 36 states before the sky change and the 36 states after the sky change, and the road of China Unicom has not changed.

The root of it is that the will of humanity is protecting it. He does not want to give up the vitality of the development of humane civilization for tens of thousands of years.

Just imagine if the Great Chu was torn apart due to geographical expansion when the sky changed, would there still be a chance to become a unified dynasty again?

The will of humanity and the way of heaven have reached a compromise, protecting the civilization of humanity for ten years. After ten years, the sites that are not included in the area of ​​the True Dragon Dynasty will no longer be protected.

The sky began to change in July of the ninth year of Xingping, and now it is October of the first year of Shenwu. It has been more than three years, and there are only six years for Li Long.

He can even see the day when he delays the reunification, the ten-year period expires, and the overseas island states lose contact.

Originally, the twelve island states were far apart, and it took two to three months for the island state farthest from the mainland to sail normally.

If we wait for the weather to expand and affect these sea areas, not to mention whether they can be found, but the voyage time will take two to three years?

Li Long couldn't believe how much he had paid from Kyushu to today's 36 states. He just didn't want to be a sinner in China, nor did he want to violate the oracle.

If you fight more with less, with a [-]% winning rate, you have to fight!

What's more, this [-]% winning rate is only [-]% of the navy's combat power. The current era is changing, and there is a god court above Dachu.

Despite the opposition of the ministers, Li Long still issued the order for naval warfare, and the will of the founder of the country was unstoppable.

But on the eve of the war, he rushed back to the capital.

Whether the Chu State Navy needs to calm down the coastal raids, or the combined fleet needs to be repaired after crossing the ocean, the largest naval battle in hundreds of years is not easy to fight.

The United Fleet is recuperating in the North Sea, and the representatives of the various island states will also have talks with the King of Qi in Qingzhou. There must be a charter for how to fight, and there are too many interests involved.

On Chu's side, the First Fleet withdrew from the defense of the East China Sea temporarily, and the Second and Third Fleets immediately set out to meet up after receiving the imperial order.

They are all from the South China Sea to the north, destroying the harassing overseas squadrons or forcing them to the North Sea, which can be regarded as training in battle in a sense.

On November [-], the Central Route Army led by Li Yanzhang defeated the Jin Army's defense and occupied the entire territory of Jiyin County in Yanzhou.

On November [-], the Central Route Army invaded the territory of Yanzhou, which belonged to the Qi State. Wang Tianwu, the envoy of the Shenwu Army, led his troops to kill through Shanyang County, and the troops went straight to Xue County, an important town in the west of Donghai County.

The Qi army mobilized heavy troops again and again, and mixed with Dao soldiers for support, which barely blocked the spirit of the Shenwu army.

However, this is obviously an expedient measure. In terms of combat power, on the frontal battlefield on land, there is no army that can match the Chu army.

On November [-]th, the West Route Army of Chu State threatened the capital of Ganzhou after they had successively conquered the fifteen cities of Ganzhou.

The Qin army in Hanzhong attacked Nanzheng for a long time and could not go down, so they had to go to Ganzhou to support. Ying Hongyu wanted to lead his troops to enclose the 10 people who were led by Lu Bi, a light army, but there was an urgent report from Shazhou.

Rong State's Zhu Xia army actually defeated the Qin State's imperial army that was going to support Shazhou. Now Rong State's army is also approaching the state capital of Shazhou. Shazhou is closer to the hinterland of Guanzhong. Ying Hongyu can only take care of that side first.

On November [-]th, Qi Xiaobai finally concluded the alliance in Qingzhou. The representatives of Qin, Jin, and the twelve island states who participated in the meeting agreed that King Qi would be the leader of the anti-Chu alliance.

This alliance attracted the attention of the world. King Qin, who "lived" in the northwest, did not become the leader of the alliance, and why the Yan Kingdom in Liaodong did not participate in the alliance.

All kinds of games among them are unknown to outsiders.

On January [-]th of the second year of Shenwu, just after the New Year, the combined fleet that almost emptied Donglai County of Qi State set off southward.

At the same time, the frontier armies of Qin, Jin, and Qi launched a counterattack against the Chu army, as if they wanted to distract the Chu state.

It seems that the anti-Chu alliance has been well prepared for this period of time, with a menacing attitude and a desperate attitude.

Then what did Li Long do during the time he came back?

He first offered three sacrifices to Haotian, and then traveled around the southern water veins, visiting the main temples of the major water gods, especially in Yunmengze Dragon Girl Temple, where a very grand official sacrifice was held.

Yunmengze was originally the confluence of land and water swamps. After the sky changed, it became a vast ocean, and its status rose instead of falling.

It gathers the water veins of various states and connects with the Yangtze River, and the water vapor covers the living areas of millions of people around.

Eight hundred miles of Yunmeng, which should have been flooded at every turn, has now become a land of fish and rice in the hearts of Chu people, a land blessed by heaven.

All these changes are due to the establishment of the Yunmeng Dragon Palace, and the red coat of the Dragon Girl has contributed a lot.

"His Majesty Haotian oracle ordered Yunmeng Dragon Girl Red Coat to be the Dragon King of the East China Sea, and she will take office with the generals of the Shuifu immediately..."
