Courtyard House: A System Connecting Two Worlds, Resources for the Nation

"This...this..."

The scholar pointed at Mi Erliu, his finger trembling: "What is this steel behemoth?"

No one answered him. Chen Xiao silently walked to Zhou Feng's side and lowered his voice: "Sir, the scholar's surname is Wang, and the martial artist's surname is Li. One is Xiao Qinyan's protégé, and the other is from the military camp. Let them come over; they can record our actions and also show those people our strength."

Although the Song Dynasty emphasized civil administration and suppressed military power, the most important factor in changing dynasties was the strength they controlled.

The main reason for elevating the status of civil officials was that Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty had been crowned emperor, which instilled in him a natural sense of defensiveness towards military generals.

"Then let them see."

With the world of Dream of Splendor having developed to this point, Zhou Feng no longer needed to hide his abilities.

The more extraordinary his abilities became, the more convincing his identity as the Immortal Envoy of Penglai was, and the more people believed in him.

As Zhou Feng led Chen Xiao toward Mi Erliu, he felt a surge of excitement.

This operation is not just about transportation; these more than one hundred people are going to deal with the most heinous and despicable group of enemies in the history of the Dragon Kingdom.

On the island of Japan during this era, there were no city-based armies; instead, the military consisted mostly of local armed samurai.

Faced with these people, Zhou Feng and his group, armed with weapons from this world, could easily defeat them by overwhelming them once they landed on the island.

After dealing with those samurai, they can enslave the native inhabitants of the island of Toyo at that time in batches.

Although they were outnumbered, they had guns.

If one bullet isn't enough to kill, you can use two.

With Zhou Feng handling logistics, even if there are a million people on the island of Dongying, they can't possibly have more bullets than them.

Such an aggressive action, if it were directed at the people of the Song Dynasty, Chen Xiao and his group might have had some reservations, after all, they are all descendants of Yan and Huang.

But if it's about dealing with the Japanese pirates in Japan, they don't need Zhou Feng to say anything; they can give themselves countless buffs on their own.

What we're saying is that if African natives could rule the cotton plantations of North America 500 years from now, why couldn't the Japanese pirates rule the mining areas of Japan at that time?

You should know that there are large gold mines, silver mines, iron ore deposits, and copper, lead, and zinc mines on the island of Japan!

Moreover, there are over 10 billion tons of limestone reserves, large amounts of sulfur and silica, and 8.6 billion tons of coal!

In addition, there are 16 million tons of rare earth mud and 11,000 tons of combustible ice!

Most importantly, these mineral resources have not yet been explored and mined, making the entire Japan a vast treasure trove!

Noticing Zhou Feng and Chen Xiao's actions, the rest of the group sprang into action, with the leader calling for his men to assemble.

After the headcount was completed, each person was led by their superior to stand in a line behind Mi Erliu.

"Sir, the Mi-26 has been checked. It has sufficient fuel, all systems are normal, and it can take off at any time."

Liu Xiaohai's words were perfectly normal, but there was a hint of intoxication on his face, which made Zhou Feng feel a little awkward.

"Alright, let's board the plane and get ready to depart!"

Zhou Feng nodded and took the lead.

Although none of his men had ever been on an airplane before, with Chen Xiao leading the way, they followed without hesitation.

On the contrary, the two men, one scholar and one warrior, along with their subordinates, hesitated for a long time and dared not go up.

The open hatch looked like a giant mouth.

In the pitch-black sky, accompanied by the faint light of the lanterns, they felt as if they were about to willingly crawl into the belly of a giant beast.

"Let's go, what are you waiting for?"

Although these two were specially sent by Xiao Qinyan and his group, Chen Xiao showed them no mercy and grabbed them by the arms, pulling them onto the plane.

The men behind them exchanged glances, gritted their teeth, and followed.

"This... I never expected that we would actually enter the body of this steel behemoth!"

The scholar surnamed Wang's voice was somewhat unsteady, and he involuntarily swallowed.

The military officer wasn't much stronger than him either. He swallowed hard, but couldn't make a sound, so he could only find a place to sit down.

The cabin of this Mi-26 is much larger than I imagined.

Most of the original equipment inside was removed and replaced with rows of compact small seats arranged along both sides of the cabin, leaving a narrow aisle in the middle.

Each seat was equipped with a seatbelt, and a small cloth bag containing water and dry food was hung next to each row of seats.

Zhou Feng's seat was in the front row, but his chair was different from the others; it looked like a small sofa.

After watching him sit down and fasten his seatbelt, Chen Xiao, Bai Lang, and Tie Jianguo invited the others to sit down one by one and then taught them how to fasten their seatbelts.

Once everyone was on board, the entire cabin was packed to the brim.

"Everyone, please be seated. Before takeoff, please check your seatbelts to make sure there are no problems."

After Chen Xiao called out, he, Bai Lang, and Tie Jianguo, each carrying a stack of plastic bags, walked towards the people who were already seated.

"Everyone, if you feel like dry heaving or vomiting later, remember to vomit into this bag and then tie it tightly!"

Listening to Chen Xiao's prompts and demonstration, Zhou Feng, who was sitting at the front, suddenly realized what was going on.

They were very thoughtful; otherwise, how could people from a thousand years ago have ever traveled by plane?

If someone gets airsick, wouldn't the whole cabin be filled with a foul smell?

After the plastic bags were handed out, the entire cabin was filled with a rustling sound even before the plane took off.

Many of these ancient people were trembling, as if they had Parkinson's disease, and the plastic bags in their hands were naturally being squeezed so tightly that they made a rustling sound.

Especially those from the civil and military officials.

At least Zhou Feng's men had seen all sorts of machines and were somewhat resistant to them, unlike them who were like country bumpkins visiting the Grand View Garden. Now this Grand View Garden sounded like it could even fly!

This is completely different from what Shangguan initially said about sending them to Japan, and it didn't say they wouldn't take a ship but would travel by sky!

After distributing the plastic bags, the three returned to their seats, tightened their seatbelts, and then called out towards the cockpit, "All done!"

Liu Xiaohai's voice came from behind the curtain: "Sit tight—"

The Mi 26's engine roared to life.

The deep, powerful voice silenced the ancient people in the cabin.

Seeing that Zhou Feng and the others were completely calm, they were filled with even greater admiration!

As expected of someone who follows Immortal Zhou Feng, he remains completely unfazed even if Mount Tai collapses before him!
