"Xu Yi, do you know? When I just landed on Huoyan Island and saw a dozen dragons standing in front of me, I didn't know how nervous I was! But I only had less than half of contact with them. When I was young, I wasn’t nervous at all. You can’t imagine how much these dragons loved the new phantom videos I brought!”
"Not only the dragons, but also the local elves and dwarfs are very fond of fantasy films. In fact, I am very surprised about this. Although Lumi and our elves on the Sainz continent also like to watch fantasy films, they are far away from them. Far less obsessed than the elves and dwarfs on the Demon Cloud Continent.”
"You mean goblins? Of course I have encountered them, and I have encountered them many times. But now the base has been basically built there, and there are many guards from the Chamber of Commerce guarding there to deal with those very backward goblins. It's still very easy. To be honest, those goblins only have the advantage of being in large numbers. I have seen that many of their weapons are just polished from stones, not to mention that they are far inferior to our Chamber of Commerce. The guards are even inferior to those of the local elves and dwarfs."
"The humans on Demon Cloud Continent got in touch with the base through the Black Dragon Clan at the end of last year. At the beginning of the year, the base also sent a magic airship to pick up a group of local humans to visit the base. They should do all these things I have to report it to you. They are very interested in what is happening on our Sainz continent, and they like our various magic machines, especially the magic illusion projector I brought there. I want to report it to you when the time comes. They should have no problem promoting magic machines.”
"To be honest, I think that although Moyun Continent lags far behind Cynes Continent, its development potential is much greater than Cynes Continent, because the local market is still blank..."
…
Looking at Steele talking eloquently, Xu Yi kept smiling.
It should be said that Steele's views on Demon Cloud Continent are very accurate except for some details that are not accurate due to insufficient information.
The Moyun Continent is indeed much behind the Simens Continent, but it is precisely because of this. The Magic Cloud Continent is like a blank piece of paper, allowing for arbitrary planning and development. In theory, it is much easier to develop than the Simens Continent.
At the very least, the goblins are now in a dominant position on the Demon Cloud Continent. The goblins are a backward race with extremely backward civilization and have not even been able to build a complete country.
In addition to occupying dominance by virtue of their numerical advantage far exceeding other races, such a race actually has very weak control over the Demon Cloud Continent, allowing other races to have many loopholes to exploit and gain a certain amount of living space.
The reason why the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was able to successfully build a base on the Magic Cloud Continent in just a few years. And it expanded quickly, which can be regarded as taking advantage of a loophole.
At the beginning, although some goblins were aware of this sudden human base and organized an attack, these goblins were easily repelled under the powerful firepower of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce escorts.
Then these goblins invaded many times and were repelled many times. However, they did not attract a large number of goblins to besiege them as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce feared. Instead, they withdrew from the area. Let Xinfei Chamber of Commerce develop freely.
If it were Sainz Continent, if Xinfeishang would do this, it would inevitably attract an all-out attack from a local human country, and it would be difficult to gain a foothold.
Therefore, if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can make good use of this situation and cooperate more with other races on the Demon Cloud Continent, then it is very likely that it will truly take root in the Demon Cloud Continent and seize the various rich resources on the Demon Cloud Continent first. resource.
This is something that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will find difficult to obtain in Sainz Continent anyway.
Almost all the resources on the continent of Sainz have been divided up by various human countries. If the New Flying Chamber of Commerce wants to acquire any place, it must pay a high price.
In fact, this time the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce went to war with the two empires. In addition to the two empires hoping to seize the dominance of the magic industry from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, another more important reason is the competition for resources.
And if these costs are invested in the Demon Cloud Continent, the returns may be countless times greater.
Of course, the premise is that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can lay an extremely solid foundation on the Demon Cloud Continent.
Moreover, there is a huge disadvantage in Moyun Continent compared to Sainz Continent. That is, the population size is much different.
Although there are a large number of goblins, due to their low civilization characteristics, it is difficult for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to develop them into their target customers, and this market is equivalent to zero.
The number of other intelligent races other than the goblins is too rare, so the market on the Demon Cloud Continent is much smaller than that on the Sainz Continent.
This aspect is the most difficult to develop and requires an extremely large amount of time and energy.
Although the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has made some discoveries in its exploration in other directions. In addition, two continents and many large islands were discovered. However, there are only fewer intelligent creatures on these two continents and islands, but they cannot be counted on.
Therefore, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can only develop Moyun Continent as a resource location at most, and its main market direction must be placed on Sainz Continent.
In the final analysis, the outcome of this war between the two empires will play a decisive role.
After Steele talked about various things about her visit to the Magic Cloud Continent, she rolled her eyes and brought the topic back to this aspect.
"Although you asked me to pay more attention to the situation in the Magic Cloud Continent, our Chamber of Commerce has concentrated on the Sainz Continent from the manufacturing of various magic projection devices, to the selection of actors for illusion films, the layout of scenes, and even the main audience. , so it’s impossible for me not to pay attention to the situation here.”
Steele paused, hesitated, and then asked: "Xu Yi, how long do you think it will take to determine the outcome of this war?"
Xu Yi shrugged: "I don't know, because it depends on what the Candela Empire chooses. If they choose to fight us to the death, then I can only tell you that this war will probably take a long time to end completely."
"They shouldn't be that stupid, because there is no need at all. Besides, these nobles of the Candela Empire are not fools. They will not accompany the Candela Empire to death." Steele curled his lips in disdain. typical.
Xu Yi couldn't help but laugh.
This is a drawback of this world.
The human society on the continent of Sainz is still in the stage of semi-slave and semi-feudal society. The vast majority of human countries are composed of large aristocratic forces, which is equivalent to a group of slave owners and large landowners.
Under normal circumstances, the country has a certain degree of control and restraint over these great nobles, but in critical moments, these great nobles will of course give priority to saving the lives of their own families and people, rather than actually fighting for the country. Loyal to death.
This was clearly shown when the southern provinces declared independence.
Later, nearly half of the provinces in the Candela Empire also fought for independence, and even one province split into dozens of small countries for this reason.
If the coalition forces of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and the Kingdom of Luersun really capture the city of Wimbledon and even destroy the power controlled by the Candela royal family, then other nobles of the Candela Empire will never be sad and angry about this. I am afraid that most nobles will feel happy.
But in this case, the large Candela Empire is very likely to fall into extreme chaos.
This is not what Xu Yi wants to see, because it is very detrimental to his promotion of the development of the magic industry.
A stable and obedient Candela Empire is the result he most hopes to see.
Just how to keep the Candela Empire stable and obedient is a very difficult and difficult task that requires a lot of effort.
The reason why Xu Yi agreed to conduct peace talks during this period of time was actually to deliberately leave some time for the Candela Empire royal family so that they could make some attempts.
Of course, the Candela Empire may not be willing to truly surrender to a mere chamber of commerce like the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Before that, they must still use some means.
Xu Yi is not worried about this.
After all, the power currently held by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is much greater than that of the Kandra Empire and all other countries and forces on this continent. It is even greater than the power advantage of the Mongols over other countries in the history of the earth. Countless times.
Because this is basically a modern civilization confronting a backward ancient civilization, which is almost equivalent to an all-round attack.
With its absolute strength advantage, no matter how hard the Candela Empire tried, it would be difficult to make any waves.
On October 2, the sixth tripartite peace talks between the Candela Empire, the Luersun Kingdom, and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce ended, but they still failed to reach a consensus.
Three days later, on October 5th, the Shandong-Xinjiang coalition forces were dispatched for the first time since they captured the city of St. Anthony. The army marched toward the northeast. In less than a week, they successively captured the central province of the Candela Empire. The three cities have advanced more than 200 kilometers towards Wimbledon City, and are no longer more than 300 kilometers away from Wimbledon City.
This distance is almost comparable to the troops approaching Wimbledon.
On October 16, after a few days of rest and recuperation, the Lu-Xin coalition forces once again marched towards Wimbledon. About 250 kilometers away from Wimbledon, they encountered the largest plain of Tara in the central province of the Kandela Empire. An unexpectedly strong tackle.
Blocking the path of the Lu-Xin coalition was the Kandela Empire's 200,000-strong army.
Cooperating with the 250,000 troops of the Malo Empire ambushed here, a total of 450,000 troops completely surrounded the 60,000 Lu-Xin coalition troops on the endless and unsheltered Tara Plain. (~^~)
