Once they realized what was happening, the two began to respond to the new residents' questions in a positive manner.

"This electricity, well, it's..."

Jiang Ming, who had already gone far away, naturally knew nothing of this.

Jiang Ming rode an electric motorcycle to the forward base on Haiqi Island.

Well, he had the Ocean Science Institute hastily make a few small electric motorcycles by hand using the materials.

The experience is incomparable to products on Earth, but it excels in convenience and speed.

The forward base was a temporary base set up to ensure logistical support for the front lines during the recent battles with the Shogunate army.

It is now being used as a transit base for supplies during the large-scale development of Tengdouzhai.

Looking at the construction site, Jiang Ming couldn't help but sigh, "The Eye of God is so convenient for production."

With a flash of the Eye of Geo, a utility pole was immediately installed; with another flash of the Eye of Geo, a section of electrical wire flew directly to the utility pole and was connected.

What would normally take workers half a day to complete, requiring the use of machinery, can be done in just two minutes by the holder of the Eye of God.

Therefore, the best profession for the holder of the Eye of the Geo Archon is Civil Engineering (I'm sure of it).

Jiang Ming found the person in charge at the scene.

"How are things now? Are there any difficulties? Do you need any support?"

"No, the work on site is progressing steadily and can be completed as expected."

"it is good!"

Jiang Ming expressed his appreciation for the work of the person in charge on site, and then turned to look at the person in charge of the garrison.

Commander of the 2nd Regiment of the 101st Division.

"Report: Everything is normal at our unit. There are no unusual activities by the enemy."

"Your main task, besides monitoring the enemy for any unusual activities, is to take good care of yourselves."

Jiang Ming turned to look at the political commissar of the 2nd Regiment who was standing to the side.

"Your task in this regard is very important. You must keep abreast of the thoughts and feelings of the entire regiment, guard against any extreme ideas from emerging, and resolutely crack down on any acts of disobedience and recklessness. All the disciplines must be fully implemented. You must ensure that not a single soldier crosses the central line of the Mingzhui Beach."

"Yes! Promise to complete the mission."

Jiang Ming nodded.

The location of Nashiina is very sensitive. One step ahead is Futsuna, the production center of the shogunate, and further ahead is Kujo Jinya.

It can be said that the shogunate had nowhere left to retreat, and the losses from further retreat would be unacceptable to them.

At the same time, the narrow and long terrain of Mingzhui Beach makes it easy to defend and difficult to attack.

This may also be a major factor in why this place is the main battlefield for both sides in the story.

Therefore, whether considering practical factors or the plot, Nashiida is a good location for a standoff.

However, given the current disparity in combat capabilities between the Umi-gi army and the Shogunate army, he must strictly control his troops to avoid causing any problems by going off alone again.

“Right now, our internal strength is not strong enough, and we are at the mercy of others. General Raiden is like a sword of Damocles, hanging over our heads by Kujo Takayuki. It hangs there, and if we make any move, the sword will fall down. Nashiina is a bit too sensitive.”

Jiang Ming explained this to the people around him.

The people present had different thoughts on this matter.

However, once the Tengdouzhai factory goes into production and those CPU-like devices are operational, and computers are built, the development speed should be even faster, right?

Chapter 118 Something Very New

Liyue Harbor.

The Southern Cross fleet slowly came to a stop.

"How about it?"

Ningguang herself stood at the dock to welcome Hokuto's return, with Hideo Yamagami following behind her.

"Don't underestimate me just because I've only been there for a few days. So much has happened there that I could talk about it for half a day and still not finish."

A smile appeared on Ningguang's face; Beidou was still the same as always.

"Then take your time, there's no rush, we have plenty of time."

"Sure, but you'll have to make arrangements for the people on my ship first."

"?"

Ningguang looked at Beidou with a puzzled expression.

"At Jiang Ming's request... or rather, at his request, they brought a batch of soldiers and weapons. Your letter on the mountain probably contains all the relevant information. You'll need to come and receive these people and your equipment later."

Hideo Yamagami, standing behind Ningguang, tilted his head and replied with a "okay".

Ningguang, on the other hand, rubbed her forehead, feeling a sudden headache.

Although she had anticipated that Beidou would come up with some new tricks, she really didn't expect that it would bring the enemy's soldiers, along with their weapons.

"Why did you bring all the soldiers this time???"

"I couldn't really refuse the conditions attached to the sale of weapons. However, they seem to have some ideas, and their reasons are quite legitimate. They also promised not to cause trouble in Liyue."

"arms?"

Ningguang's focus was on buying and selling; she tilted her head and looked at Beidou.

"What weapon could possibly excite our Beidou leader so much?"

"You'll see in a bit, I'll explain it to you in detail later."

"Alright, shall we have the Jade Pavilion then?"

"let's go."

The two chatted briefly at the dock, said goodbye to Yamagami Hideo, and then left the dock together for the Gongyoku Pavilion.

Before leaving, Ningguang left behind a temporary pass that she had prepared in advance, which could be used by the soldiers from the Isle of Hyjal who had just arrived in Liyue Harbor.

Of course, this is on the premise that they abide by the laws of Liyue Harbor.

Hideo Yamagami watched the two leave, then opened the letter he had taken from Hokuto, flipped through a few pages, and frowned deeply.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with the letter?"

Seeing Yamagami Hideo's expression, Hokukai Kawakami asked with a puzzled look.

“The letter itself is fine, it’s the content that’s the problem.” Hideo Yamagami rubbed his temples. “We need to speed things up. Beihai, in a couple of days, hand over the work in Liyue, and then you go to Mondstadt to negotiate with the Knights of Favonius.”

"Eh? So fast?"

“Hmm.” Hideo Yamagami nodded in response. “Not only Mondstadt, but this time we were also asked to send some men to the Sumeru Desert. The team of soldiers that came here is mainly responsible for this task. The environment in the Sumeru Desert is too harsh, it doesn’t have a good relationship with the rainforest, and the security is poor.”

“I see…” Hokukai Kawakami fell into thought.

"Don't focus too much on Sumeru for now. Think about Mondstadt first. The mission in Mondstadt is still crucial. I'll leave that to you. As for the desert, I'll think of a way to arrange other manpower."

"Okay," Hokusai Kawakami replied.

People began disembarking from the Southern Cross ships docked at the port.

A strong, fit man in overalls led his men to find Hideo Yamagami.

"Are you Mr. Yamagami?"

"it's me."

"Hello! My name is Takahashi. This is my identification. As per orders, we will now follow your instructions."

Takahashi didn't salute or make a fuss, but silently handed over his Kaiji Army identification.

Hideo Yamagami opened it and looked at it. Hmm, it was a document he had never seen before.

However, the writing style is indeed reminiscent of Coral Palace.

It seems that Haigi Island has changed quite a bit in the past few months.

I looked at the cargo list in my hand, and the cargo being loaded and unloaded at the dock.

He'll probably stay here a while longer.

Hideo Yamagami then looked at Takahashi and said, "Tell me about the changes on Umijima Island in the last few months. Let's start from when I left Umijima Island."

"Well, that makes things interesting..."

Takahashi told Yamagami Hideo about the recent developments and events on Umijima Island.

Meanwhile, Beidou and Ningguang arrived at Qunyu Pavilion, and the two began to talk about her experiences on Haiqi Island.

Although there was some delay on the way, unlike Takahashi, in addition to narrating the story verbally, Hokuto also had the evaluation reports submitted by Wenchen and Anxin.

Having the textbook in hand made it much easier for her to explain Ningguang than for Takahashi.

Ningguang and Hideo Yamagami learned about the current situation of Umijima at almost the same time.

"So much has happened?!" *2

Although they were not in the same place, both of them were surprised.

"Yes, I think so too. And it's such a coincidence that they just happened to run into us and accidentally dragged us into this mess. But I have to thank them, though. We've gained quite a few benefits out of thin air because of their involvement."

Beidou refers to Jiang Ming and Xin Hai's permission to export arms.

From her perspective, if she had such a good item, she would never sell it casually.

The fact that these two men initially declined to meet with her, but later directly agreed to the sale of such a powerful weapon, clearly indicates that they had anticipated that she would take the opportunity to make some demands.

Even if it's expensive, it's already good enough that people are willing to sell it.

Anyway, Liyue is not short of money, so this can be considered a satisfactory result for both parties.

"Um……"
