Start with an Archangel

In any case, Daliang is considered a member of the East China Sea King's camp. The war between Shangjiang City and Chongming City has ended, and the army he leads in Yunxiao does not need to worry about attacks from the elves. It can be regarded as a territory gained from Joshua.

Since we are no longer enemies, let’s talk business. Joshua's dragon army will definitely not disband. His army will retreat from the human territory, so the crystals will need to be imported from Feichen Island.

That’s four Silver Pegasus knights a day, and the aerial force of the Silver Pegasus knights and griffons made Daliang very satisfied. Now that the trade with Joshua has reopened, the supply of Silver Pegasus can also be restored, Daliang I also thought that if I had the ability to replace all the mounts of the members of the Judgment with Silver Pegasus, my aerial combat capability would be absolutely explosive.

However, Joshua said: "I have lost some dragons in the battles these days, and Chongming City's strategy will turn to defense in the future, and I do not need to maintain a large-scale dragon army. Therefore, I will reduce the transaction with you to daily For two units of crystals, the number of Silver Pegasus Knights will be reduced to two."

Although he was a little disappointed with the decrease in the number of transactions, Daliang knew that Joshua could no longer maintain a large-scale army. As Shuntong Shang began to operate, the wealth of Chongming City would begin to shrink, and it would gradually become unable to attack and have sufficient defense. You can no longer spend as much as you did before.

Daliang nodded and said: "Okay, two units of crystal trading, one unit is fixed as gems, and the other unit is half mercury and half sulfur. As for the two silver Pegasus, I want to exchange them for six Pegasus knights. I will think of a way I will train by myself, and I hope that Chongming City will open a high-level magic spring for me so that I can train the Pegasus knights who can be promoted into Silver Pegasus knights."

It is difficult to build a scale with two Silver Pegasus knights every day, but if you can use the high-end magic spring in Chongming City, the same is true for using the Pegasus knights to train the Silver Pegasus knights themselves.

"No problem." Joshua needs the crystals from Feichen Island to maintain his existing dragon troops, and he can agree to any small request. Then Joshua revealed another purpose of his, the real purpose of his meeting with Daliang: "I want to see Joyce. Although the King of East China Sea promised to negotiate peace with me, Joyce will definitely cause trouble with me at sea. I I want her to understand that our two fleets are no longer enemies and should work together to safeguard our common maritime interests. The hostility between our two fleets has caused some people with ulterior motives to extend their hands into the East China Sea."

"No problem." The Pudong Fleet and the Chongming Fleet are in a hostile state, which is of great benefit to the Black Fire Territory. At least Daliang does not have to worry about his fleet being attacked by the Chongming Fleet in the Shangjiang waters. "I will send the Marquis to I want to convey this to Admiral Joyce, but I can’t guarantee whether she will be willing to see you or not.”

"She will respect your opinion."

At this time, the attendant came in and saw that Daliang was hesitant to speak.

"If you have anything to do, just say it directly. Baron Feichen will be one of our own from now on."

"Reporting to you two adults, the Marquis of Bloodfang was ambushed by Duke Howard on his way back to Fengxian City. The Marquis of Bloodfang was killed, and the main force of the orcs has been absorbed by the Duke."

Joshua said with emotion: "I advised Xueya not to go back. Howard was not something he could deal with. I didn't expect Howard to pretend to attack Nanhui City and ambush Xueya at night. Once Xueya died, Fengxian City would belong to Howard, and Nanhui Gucheng would probably belong to Howard. He also surrendered to Howard soon. Including Songjiang, he owns three cities; Donghai King has two; I have two. It seems that there will be no big war in Shangjiang before Donghai King dies."

After coming out of Chongming City, looking at the elves' troops withdrawing from the south bank of the river, the situation in Shangjiang was blurry in Daliang's eyes. The war that originally affected the entire Shangjiang area ended in just a few hours, and the two powerful fronts became a tripartite confrontation.

Joshua has lost his determination to fight for supremacy. His territory is the smallest. Having lost his allies, he is no longer able to compete on land. Being able to protect himself is probably his biggest requirement at the moment. The Shuntong Chamber of Commerce has seriously weakened his economy. If the elves want to maintain an army that can protect themselves, they must reach out overseas to do business on their own, so maintaining a good relationship with the Pudong Fleet is a primary foundation.

Duke Howard has three cities and does not have the strength to attack Shangjiang City. His economy and military strength are the weakest. However, Howard's prestige and strength are very high. The human army does not dare to go south to attack him with Joshua behind him. , Howard only needs to be careful and slowly survive the King of East China Sea.

The King of East China Sea has Shangjiang City and Jiading City. He is the strongest, but also the most vulnerable internally. The most important thing is his body. If he is alive, Joshua and Howard are afraid of him, and the Shangjiang area is stable; if he dies, if Prince William is still so ignorant, everyone will betray their relatives...

Shouldn't I have made plans earlier? Working with Joshua again is a good start.

After leaving Chongming City, Daliang rode the Silver Pegasus directly to find Joyce. No matter how the situation in Shangjiang changed in the future, he was determined to hug Joyce's thigh tightly. Regardless of Joshua, King of East China Sea, or Howard, if they fall out and cause trouble with the Black Fire Leader in the future, they will not be able to get around the Pudong Fleet.

On the way to the "Oath", Daliang ordered Monica to lead the army of the Black Fire Leader to retreat from the north shore of Chongming Island. Since Shangjiang City and Chongming City have begun peace talks, there is no need for his army to stay there.

As for protecting the Yunxiao Territory... that is Xu Man's business. The teleportation arrays in the two cities will be opened soon, and by then no one will be able to steal the territory from the College Alliance.

The battle at sea has stopped, and the warships of the Pudong Fleet can be vaguely seen on the sea returning. The high-intensity naval battle caused the Pudong Fleet to suffer heavy losses, and it would be impossible to restore its original glory in a short time.

On the "Oath", which was also returning, Daliang met Joyce.

She stood alone on the bridge, holding a bottle of wine and looking into the night sky where the black stars shone, with no trace of the joy of defeating Joshua on her face.

"I dedicated my body and soul to this city, the city that raised me. Even if I marry a bastard prince, for the sake of the integrity of this city, I am willing to accept my fate. But today... …I unexpectedly found that it turned out to be so strange, and the people I knew were all so strange. What was my sacrifice for? What on earth happened to this city?"

Duke Howard attacked Fengxian City, and the King of East China Sea agreed to negotiate peace with Joshua, which made Joyce aware of the hidden information.

She originally thought that as long as she defeated Joshua, Shangjiang would be unified back to its original appearance, but now...

The war in the future will be more tragic than now.
