Chapter 89 War Between the Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom?
"Boom boom boom boom boom..."
Countless red rays of light fell from the sky and hit the position of the Spirit Turtle Army, and a series of violent explosions sounded immediately.
Legion Commander Thomas watched helplessly as the defensive position that the entire legion had spent half a year building collapsed like tofu dregs amidst the sound of the explosion. Apart from shock, what came out of his heart was more chill.
The Spirit Turtle Legion under him is a legion that has always been known for its defense in the Kingdom of Sark. It has worked hard to build this fortification for the past six months, but now it seems so vulnerable.
If these attacks were not aimed at the outer fortifications, but directly aimed at the Spirit Turtle Legion hiding behind, the losses of the Spirit Turtle Legion would be extremely heavy now.
Seeing another burst of flames on the opposite front, Commander Thomas sighed, and said to the guards beside him: "Send the order, the whole army retreats."
The personal guard was startled: "My lord, this..."
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and pass the order." Thomas Legion Commander waved his hand.
The guard's face was full of doubts and unwillingness, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions. After saluting, he passed on the order.
"Oh, Thomas, it seems that we still don't have the capital to confront the guys from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce." Duranke, the chief of staff of the Spirit Turtle Legion, walked over from the side and sighed softly.
Commander Thomas smiled wryly: "Don't say that we have to face the perverts of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce head-on. I think that even if we face the Lampari Kingdom, we may also be powerless to fight back."
After a pause, Captain Thomas suddenly cursed in a low voice.
"Damn it, it's all the damn Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's fault. They made these damn military magical machines. They're simply demonic weapons!"
Chief of Staff Duran shook his head and sighed softly: "Okay. It's meaningless to say these things, let's go back and think about what to do. If there is no solution, our Sak Kingdom will be in danger in the future."
Captain Thomas cursed again, then frowned and said: "It's really strange to say. We have been here for such a long time. The elves of the Moon Shadow Tribe have been quiet before. Why did they react so suddenly this time? What's even more strange is why the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce also got involved, and even sent their escort?"
"You have to ask the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce." Chief of Staff Dulan rolled his eyes. "Xu Yi, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, was originally a lunatic. God knows what's going on in his mind."
"Damn it. It's because of the appearance of this lunatic that our Sark Kingdom is in a state of unrest. Isn't there any way to get rid of him?"
"Stop dreaming." Chief of Staff Duran shook his head. "Let's not say that this lunatic is a great magician himself, and it is not so easy to be killed. Even if there is a chance to kill him, those big figures in the kingdom will not agree."
"I really don't know what these guys are thinking. Do they really think they can get any benefits from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"
Looking at Commander Thomas with an unfazed expression, Chief of Staff Duran nodded inwardly.
That's right, not only those big figures in the kingdom, but even the entire Sark Kingdom have indeed benefited from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
And this benefit is not small.
Although the military of the Kingdom of Sark hated the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, because of the appearance of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the advantage of the Kingdom of Sark over the Kingdom of Lampari disappeared instantly. In turn, they were oppressed by the Lampari Kingdom at will, but in forces other than the civil and military forces of the Sak Kingdom. However, most of the people who have a positive attitude towards this new flying chamber of commerce.
The reason is very simple, it is because of the emergence of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which has brought many very good changes to the Kingdom of Sark.
To give the simplest example, since the Sak Kingdom purchased a large number of farmland magic machines from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce three years ago, and caused a mature farmland transformation and farming model that matches the farmland magic machines, the Sack Kingdom’s three-year Grain production hits new highs every year.
According to the statistics obtained during the spring harvest this year, the wheat production of the entire Sark Kingdom in one season has reached an astonishing three million tons!
If it is combined with other grains, the grain production in this spring season alone is equivalent to the annual grain production of the former Sak Kingdom.
Seeing that it is now the autumn harvest season, according to feedback from various places, the grain harvested is only a lot more than that in spring.
In this way, the grain harvested by the Kingdom of Sark this year alone would exceed six million tons of wheat alone, enough to feed all the people in the kingdom, and even have leftovers.
This is simply a miracle for the Sark Kingdom, which has always had barren land and a serious shortage of grain production.
The reason why the former Sak Kingdom frequently launched troops against the Lampari Kingdom and other surrounding countries was actually to solve the domestic food crisis.
Otherwise, the Isaac Kingdom is not far superior to the neighboring countries in terms of national strength, and there is no need to wage wars so frequently.
Originally, the strength of the Lampari Kingdom increased greatly, and after the Sark Kingdom was continuously defeated, there was a panic in the Sark Kingdom, fearing that this would cause the Sark Kingdom to be unable to plunder enough food from other countries, thus cause famine.
However, they did not expect that the Lampari Kingdom took the initiative to sign a mutual trade agreement with the Sark Kingdom, and then took the initiative to sell grain to the Sark Kingdom, helping the Sark Kingdom to ease the crisis.
Even after that, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and various chambers of commerce in the Lampari Kingdom went to the Sark Kingdom to invest and build factories. They not only brought advanced farmland magic machinery and farmland cultivation systems to the Sark Kingdom, but also helped the Sark Kingdom from The food crisis was fundamentally resolved, and a magic industrial zone was even built in the free trade zone opened up in the southern part of the Kingdom of Sark, which provided good job opportunities for many people in the Kingdom of Sark.
From this point of view, in fact, because of the emergence of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the benefits brought to the Sak Kingdom far outweigh the disadvantages they brought.
Of course, from the perspective of the military, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is undoubtedly the mortal enemy of the Sark Kingdom.
Because the military of the Kingdom of Sark knows very well that as long as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce continues to support the Kingdom of Lampari. Then the Sark Kingdom will almost never see the light of day.
Therefore, Chief of Staff Duran understood very well the hatred of Chief Thomas for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Don't say anything else. Just this time, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce actually sent a guard to help the elves of the Moon Shadow tribe attack the Spirit Turtle Legion. It was enough for Captain Thomas to list the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce as a deadly enemy.
However, the thoughts of the head of the Thomas Legion are meaningless, because the facts are in front of them. The combat effectiveness of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort is still as strong as the rumors, and even more terrifying than imagined. The Spirit Turtle Legion has nothing in front of them Therefore, even the commander of the Thomas Army had no choice but to give the order to retreat.
"I don't think we need to worry about the other party's pursuit." Chief of Staff Duran put down his binoculars to observe the situation in the distant position, and said to Army Commander Thomas: "Judging from the attack just now, the other party seems to just want to drive us away, not The real meaning of war."
Commander Thomas snorted coldly: "After all, they are just the guards of a chamber of commerce. Don't they dare to declare war on our entire Sark Kingdom?"
Chief of Staff Durant glanced at him, a trace of worry flashing through his mind.
This was the thinking of many people in the military department of the Kingdom of Sark, but he didn't think so.
Although analyzed from a rational and objective point of view, no matter how powerful the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is, it is only a chamber of commerce after all, so it is absolutely impossible to develop with a complete country.
However, after Chief of Staff Durant analyzed the recent movements of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce this year, he felt more and more that this point of view was unreliable.
Xu Yi, the chairman of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, often thanked crazy and incomprehensible things.
But every time after the analysis, he always found that his actions actually contained deep meaning. It is all for the next move of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce as a foreshadowing, almost never doing meaningless things.
Well this time. He suddenly sent the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to help the elves of the Moon Shadow Tribe repel the Spirit Turtle Legion's blockade of the Moon Shadow Tribal territory. On the surface, it is undoubtedly a very crazy and irrational action, because it is very likely to cause Sa The rebound of the Sak Kingdom may even be regarded as a declaration of war by the Sak Kingdom, but in reality?
Chief of Staff Duranke couldn't figure out what Xu Yi wanted to do and what he wanted to gain from this matter, so he was very disturbed.
What made him even more uneasy was a worst guess.
What if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce really wanted to declare war on the Kingdom of Sark, what would the result be like?
If you ask this question to any ordinary person on this continent, the answer must be that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is crazy.
If a mere chamber of commerce wants to declare war on a kingdom whose strength can be counted as medium in the entire Sainz continent, that is simply courting death.
But after this question was thrown to Chief of Staff Duran for serious consideration, he came to a completely different conclusion.
If the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce really declares war on the Kingdom of Sark, as the Chief of Staff of the Turtle Legion who knows the strength of the Kingdom of Sark very well, Chief of Staff Duran can be sure that no legion in the Kingdom of Sark can resist it. Live the attack of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort.
Even the addition of all the legions of the Sac Kingdom is just to make the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce guards spend more time, and they can't resist it.
Because this is not a battle at the same level at all.
Just like the situation unfolding in Chief of Staff Duran, everyone in the Spirit Turtle Corps, from top to bottom, didn't even see the enemy's face, and they were forced to retreat by the fierce attack.
This is the same for other legions of the Sark Kingdom, without any exceptions.
So the conclusion is that as long as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce goes to war with the Sak Kingdom, the Sak Kingdom will undoubtedly lose.
Although the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is unlikely to be able to completely occupy the entire Sak Kingdom, if the army of the Sak Kingdom is completely defeated, is it possible for the Sak Kingdom to survive?
Every time he thought of this question, Chief of Staff Duran would fall into intense unease.
How to do? (To be continued..)
