471 Shocking news, Shen lang opens!

“Brother, this city is not easy to fight.” Hila said.

Shen lang nodded. Of course, raging tide city was not easy to fight.

It had been a long time since he had returned. Even if the great Yan Empire had not reacted in time, the soldiers of the Vietnamese capital would not have been able to arrive in time.

However, there were two places where the Army would definitely be able to enter raging tide city in advance. One was the Tiannan province Garrison, and the other was the hidden element society’s Army.

Shen lang did not know that Yin Yuan had the iron Blood Army, but he could deduce that. This was because when he destroyed the headquarters of the hidden origin Association in Yue country, the Association had already taken action to snatch the thousands of people with zero bloodline from him. Of course, this was just a trick of Shen lang. What they had snatched were the thousands of real retards. However, the will of the yinyuan Association to create a super Army could be seen from this.

After that, Shen lang would use the Black Death to massacre a city of the hidden origins sect. As a form of comfort, the Emperor of the great Yan Empire would agree to the request of the hidden origins sect.

Shen lang had already given him a clear idea of how to create a super Army, which was to transform those with zero bloodline. Of course, the formula given by Chen Lang was fake. However, stupa mountain and sky-Sea Pavilion had studied bloodlines hundreds of years earlier than Chen Lang. Moreover, when Jiang Li was destroyed, stupa mountain had obtained the most research results. It was enough to leak a little to Yin Yuan Association.

Therefore, Shen lang deduced that it was highly likely that Yin Yuan would have a super Army.

Not only Yin Yuan Association, but stupa mountain would also not sit by and do nothing. After all, Yan nanfei’s southern sea Sword sect used to be a subsidiary of stupa mountain. Of course, stupa mountain had removed this subsidiary in order to completely occupy the ancient ruins at the bottom of the sea. However, Yan nanfei was still one of their own, so it was highly likely that they would provide him with Gu insect weapons.

Therefore, Shen lang predicted that he would have to face the new army of the yin Yuan Association and the legendary venomous insects of stupa mountain.

It had to be said that the one who understood you the most was definitely your enemy. Even though Shen lang did not know anything, his guess was pretty accurate.

On the other hand, Shen lang would only use the Amazon Army and the Nirvana Army to attack raging tide city. There were about 10000 of them in total. The skeleton army was a Navy, so it was best not to use them to attack the city.

Thus, this battle was naturally going to be difficult to fight.

Suddenly, Hila said,’brother, don’t you have the Black Death virus? Can we use this to attack the city?”

Shen lang thought for a while and shook his head, ” “It won’t work.”

It seemed that using the black virus was a good choice, as it could almost paralyze the entire raging tide city. As long as the entire sea was sealed, there was no need to worry about the virus spreading to the land.

But raging tide city wasn’t just the same, there was also Leizhou Island.

The entire Leizhou Island covered more than 5000 square kilometers. The Jin family and the heavenly Dao Association had invested millions of gold coins here, moved nearly 100000 people to live on this Island, and opened up millions of acres of fertile land and ranches.

These were the foundation of the Jin family and Shen lang. Once the Black Death virus was used, not only would the entire raging tide city be wiped out, but the people on the entire Leizhou Island would also be wiped out. These 100000 people were all Jin family’s people.

In the future, Shen lang would need a large amount of food and meat to develop his base in raging tide city, and he would need to rely on the production of 100000 civilians.

Therefore, the Black Death virus should never be considered.

it’s impossible to attack by force, ” Hila said. although the Amazon Army is strong, they only have 8000 people. They can’t afford to lose more than a few times.

Shen lang nodded. Every lady in the Amazon Army was precious, and they could not be lost. Furthermore, Shen lang was planning to let the Nirvana Army and the Amazon Army intermarry to give birth to a powerful generation.

are there any innocent people in this raging tide city? ” Hila asked. are there any innocent people here? ”

Shen lang thought for a while and then shook his head.

There were no innocent people in raging tide city, that was for sure. The heavenly Dao Association’s influence in raging tide city had been uprooted, and now this city completely belonged to Yan nanfei and the yin Yuan Association.

As for the merchants in this city? The merchants who were slightly loyal to the Jin family and Shen lang were all unlucky. Those who remained were all merchants who were loyal to the yin Yuan Association.

It was true that merchants had no homeland. At first, the owner of raging tide city was Qiu Tianwei, then it became the Jin family, and finally, it became the yin Yuan Association and Yan nanfei.

Every time there was a change of ownership, the merchants in raging tide city would still dance and drink as usual. Even when the Jin family ruled raging tide city, these merchants didn’t pledge allegiance to them, they only paid taxes.

Therefore, in the past, raging tide city was a completely free city, a city of trade. No ruler interfered with the city’s trade, and they completely shared the right to rule with the merchants.

Therefore, the merchants of raging tide city had no loyalty to speak of. When the original owner of the city was about to be finished, they couldn’t wait to abandon and betray.

This time, after Shen lang took down raging tide city, he would carry out a thorough cleansing.

From now on, raging tide city needed workers and farmers, but it didn’t need merchants.

He wanted to build raging tide city into a fortress on the sea, an industrial base. All the raw materials didn’t need to trade with the eastern world, they only needed to trade with xilun dynasty.

His elder sister Helen and his wife, Dybas, would definitely spare no effort in providing material support.

seal off all routes to raging tide city. The fleet will surround them but not attack. Shen lang ordered.

Immediately, his powerful fleet spread out and completely sealed off the entire raging tide city, but they didn’t disembark or start a war.

……………………

Seeing this, Yan nanfei heaved a sigh of relief.

Everything was as he had expected. Shen Lang’s fleet was invincible, but they did not have the ability to attack a city. They could not move the cannons onto land either.

You want to rely on the blockade to make raging tide city compromise?

Are you daydreaming? Raging tide city wasn’t an isolated city, it had the entire Leizhou Island behind it.

They were grateful to the Jin family and the heavenly Law Society for moving 100000 people over in a few years and opening up millions of acres of fertile land, so that the raging tide city had an endless supply of food, and they didn’t need to rely on sea trade at all.

Even if it was locked down for three to five years, it was impossible for raging tide city to run out of food and ammunition.

A few days had passed, but Shen Lang’s fleet was still on lockdown. They had no intention of landing and starting a war.

Yan nanfei was entertaining the merchants of raging tide city in the castle.

“My virtuous friends, did you see clearly? Shen lang can’t do anything to the Furious tide city.” Yan nanfei laughed, ” I have 100000 troops to defend the city. How many men can Shen lang have to attack the city? ” Ten thousand? Or twenty thousand?”

“How powerful is the iron Blood Army of the hidden origins sect? Everyone has seen with their own eyes how powerful stupa mountain’s Secret weapon is.”

“So, how ridiculous is it that those cowardly merchants ran away? Just stay in raging tide city and wait for the deep wave fleet to be annihilated. Then, business will go on as usual.”

I have to make one thing clear here. The merchants who left raging tide city before don’t need to come back. From now on, all the business in raging tide city and all the leftovers in the eastern sea area are yours.

As soon as he said this, the hundreds of merchants present raised their glasses and cheered, ” “Mighty Lord Yan!”

“Shen lang is interesting. Since he escaped to the Western world, why didn’t he live there? He just had to come back and affect everyone’s fortune. Cutting off someone’s path to wealth is like killing one’s parents. I really want to skin him alive.”

“He’s about to stage The Return of the King.”

“The Return of the King?” The merchant held his stomach and laughed, ” “Have you ever seen the king who returned with 20000 people? Have you ever seen a King’s return that doesn’t even dare to attack a mere raging tide city? He couldn’t even take down a small city like raging tide city, and he still wanted to take over the Vietnamese capital? And you want to fight the entire Eastern world? This is simply ridiculous.”

After the defeat of Yan nanfei’s fleet, half of the merchants in raging tide city fled, and the remaining half became cowards, not daring to express any opinions. They were even ready to change sides.

Now that a few days had passed, and Shen lang was completely helpless against the raging tide city, their confidence was boosted.

After all, to a certain extent, they could be considered the traitors of the Jin family. After Shen Lang’s identity was exposed, this group of merchants immediately cooperated with the yin Yuan Association to take over the foundation of the heaven’s path society and the Jin family. Every family got a share of the benefits.

Not to mention anything else, just the millions of acres of fertile land in raging tide city. The Jin clan had borrowed an astronomical amount of gold coins from the heavenly Dao Association to move 100000 people here to cultivate this land.

These fertile lands all belonged to the Jin family, but they were distributed to the 100000 immigrants for free. They only had to turn in 20% of the harvest every year, and the remaining 80% went to them.

Furthermore, the Jin family would loan 100000 gold coins to their people without interest, allowing them to build houses and buy property.

In the end, these one million fertile lands and one hundred thousand people were all taken away. Yan nanfei got the bigger share, while Zhuo Zhaoyan, Tang Yun, and the others got the smaller share.

The hundreds of merchants present also had a share. Not only were they merchants, but they were also the owners of Leizhou Island.

Originally, under the rule of the Jin family, these 100000 people only had to turn in 20% of their harvest every year. Now, they had to turn in 70% of their harvest. This group of people was eating their money happily.

Therefore, who would like Shen lang to come back and hope that the Jin family would rule the raging tide city again?

It was definitely these 100000 immigrants. These two years, their lives had been extremely miserable, and they missed the Jin family more and more in their hearts.

After the news of Shen Lang’s return spread, the 100000 civilians were extremely excited. Every day, they prayed that Shen Lang’s Army would land and take back raging tide city so that they could be freed from their suffering.

However, more than ten days had passed, and Shen Lang’s fleet was still only sealing off raging tide city. They still did not have any intention of landing and starting a war.

now, Shen Lang’s background has been completely figured out. He only has a few tens of thousands of people. His battleship can’t get on land, so it’s impossible for him to take down raging tide city.

there’s no food on the sea, and Shen lang doesn’t have a place to stand. I want to know how long he can last and how long the food on his ship can last.

Hearing the words of the merchants, Yan nanfei felt proud of himself. He smiled reservedly and said, ” I wish that Shen lang would attack the city immediately. The 100000 soldiers under my command are already ready to fight.

don’t worry, Lord Yan nanfei. Shen Lang’s fleet can’t last much longer. If they don’t get any supplies, his fleet will die without a fight.

………………

“Little brother, we’re running out of supplies,” it’s still okay in terms of food, ” Hila said. after all, we can catch them in the sea. But we’re running out of main grain, especially the bean sprouts. We can’t go out without vegetables.

Shen lang nodded. He had to take down raging tide city as soon as possible.

He was waiting for news from Zhang Chunhua. When Chou Yao ‘er led the Pirates towards the West, they came across many islands along the way. One day, they saw a very strange Island that was spewing fire continuously.

It wasn’t a volcanic eruption, but a crack on the ground. Black oil spurted tens of meters into the air and was ignited for some reason.

Shen lang was overjoyed when he heard that. It was an oil well, and it was a self-gushing well that did not need to be drilled. It was extremely easy to mine, and he only needed to prepare countless barrels.

Therefore, after leaving the Devil’s Triangle, Shen Lang’s fleet was split into two.

One hundred of the main fleets were here to fight Yan Nan on the sea, while the other one thousand ships were sailing toward the island in the northeast to mine for a large amount of crude oil.

Oil was also the mother of industry. To Shen lang, oil was not just fuel. Countless chemical materials were also extracted from crude oil.

Of course, with Shen Lang’s current industrial capabilities, he was far from being able to refine crude oil. However, even crude oil was a terrifying fuel.

Before that, if they wanted to carry out a large-scale fire attack, they had to use fish oil. It was to catch fish from the sea and boil them into oil. How precious was that? No matter how strong a force was, preparing a few hundred thousand catties of fish oil at once was already the maximum.

And for a large-scale battle, hundreds of thousands of fish oil was really nothing.

Once they had oil, it would be inexhaustible. If it was used for fire attacks, it could use up to a few million to ten million Jin at one time.

With Shen Lang’s current ability, he could not create a incendiary bomb. He could not even extract gasoline and kerosene. However, crude oil could be used for fire attacks. It was even more vicious, because when crude oil burned, it would emit a lot of poisonous gas. Carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and so on.

Therefore, Shen lang had never thought of attacking raging tide city normally.

He was going to use tens of millions of pounds of crude oil to burn the entire raging tide city and kill everyone in the city.

After the Great Purge, the great reconstruction would be carried out. And there was no more thorough cleansing than this.

So, what 100000 troops? What Iron Blood Army of the hidden origins sect? What stupa mountain’s Gu worm arrows, what huge castle?

Shen lang did not care about any of that. He wanted to let Yan nanfei know what a true fire attack was and what a complete massacre was.

………………

Another five days had passed!

“It’s coming, it’s coming!” Hila suddenly shouted.

Shen lang rushed out of the deck and saw countless black dots on the sea. His other fleet had finally arrived. There were a total of a thousand ships.

Shen lang did not need to ask because he had already seen that almost all the ships were filled with wooden barrels. Each barrel contained about a hundred catties of crude oil, and the thousands of ships carried more than a hundred thousand barrels of crude oil.

To Zhang Chunhua and the others, extracting crude oil was the simplest. The cracked oil wells contained an uncountable amount of crude oil, and it would not take long for them to fill up the oil wells.

If he could find ten self-spraying Wells, it would be enough for Shen lang to mine for a few years.

These oil wells had not been there for a long time. They had only appeared a few years ago. To be precise, they had only appeared seven or eight years ago. A huge earthquake had torn the earth apart. An astronomical amount of oil had been suppressed by the earth. Now that a crack had been torn open, it gushed out.

For almost a month, Zhang Chunhua and her 20000 men did nothing but build oil barrels every day. Even the Warriors of the skeleton gang had become carpenters and knew how to put together mortises.

The 20,000 people worked hard for a month and finally built more than 100000 wooden barrels and extracted more than 100000 barrels of crude oil, more than 15 million catties, which was 7000 tons.

This number was not worth mentioning at all for the modern earth, but it was an astronomical number for this world. When the US Air raid on Tokyo, more than 300 bombers were used and 2000 tons of incendiary bombs were dropped. However, the raging tide city in front of him was less than one-tenth of the size of Tokyo City during World War II.

There were no commoners in raging tide city. All of them were merchants, and the cowardly merchants had already run away. The only ones left were merchants who had followed the hidden element Society to the end.

The area of raging tide city was only about 30 square kilometers. In addition to the 100000 troops, there were also hundreds of merchants. On average, each merchant had hundreds of subordinates, so the entire population of raging tide city did not exceed 180000.

………………

Zhang Chunhua rushed in front of Shen lang and rolled up her sleeves.

Shen lang dodged as he thought that Zhang Chunhua was going to hit him.

look, look at Qianqian, ” Zhang Chunhua said angrily.”My soft and tender skin, when I was following Queen Medusa on the sea, I was never tanned. Look at me now! Shen lang, I’m here to be your concubine, not to be your slave. I’m a woman, and you’re using me like livestock?”

Shen lang held her hand and said, ” “Your skin is tanned to a wheat color, it’s beautiful.”

Then, Shen lang pinched her waist and her legs and said, ” “Oh my, your figure has become more fit.”

“I don’t believe you.” he said he would marry me in Mulan city, ” Zhang Chunhua said. then, he said he would marry me in the castle on the top of the mountain in Jade Gold City. A few months have passed.

Shen lang said, ” since you are already in the eastern world, I can’t let you suffer. You must save your father and brother. Then, with their blessings, I will marry you.

Zhang Chunhua looked at Shen lang for a while and said, ” “Don’t tell me that you’re no longer interested in me because we’re too familiar with each other?”

“Yes, yes, of course there is.” Shen lang said.

Zhang Chunhua went in front of Shen lang and said,”can you smell me? do I still smell of kerosene?” I’ve already bathed three times.”

“No, there’s only a natural fragrance,” Shen lang said.

“Bah!” Zhang Chunhua glared at Shen lang again.

“How much crude oil did you mine?” Shen lang asked.

Zhang Chunhua replied, ” there are countless of them. All the ships are full. There’s no way we can carry more. It’s more than 15 million catties. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it. It was like a well. It had been emptied, but it was full again in less than a night. This is a God-given wealth. If I were a businessman, I would be able to make a fortune just by selling this thing, right?”

Not only would he be able to make a fortune, but he would also be able to support dozens of countries and even a Supreme Empire with this thing.

Shen lang came to the map of raging tide city. It was 30 square kilometers of raging tide city and 15 million catties of crude oil. That meant that an average of 500 thousand catties of crude oil would be thrown in one square kilometer. This kind of fire attack was simply an astronomical figure. It was crazy.

“Next, are you planning to throw all of these 10 million pounds of kerosene into raging tide city?” Zhang Chunhua asked.

Shen lang nodded. that’s right. Are you trying to say that it’s against the heavens? ”

“No,” Zhang Chunhua shook her head,”I’m so excited that I’m feeling a little ominous.”

Shen lang looked at her and thought,’what a Vixen. I told you that I would marry you after I save Zhang sa and his son, but you’re still trying to seduce me.’

………………

The strategy had been decided.

The crazy fire attack poured more than 7000 tons of oil into the city.

But the key problem now was how to throw the 7000 tons of crude oil into raging tide city, still using the hot air balloon.

After simplification, the hot air balloon made by Shen lang could carry 800 kilograms at a time. After deducting the weight for one person, there should be about 730 kilograms left, which was 14 barrels of crude oil.

Shen lang had used an astronomical amount of resources to create more than 100 hot air balloons. In theory, they could only throw 150000 catties of crude oil at one time. They would need to throw about 100 batches of crude oil for this air strike.

This was the crazy air raid plan that Shen lang had come up with.

There were no steam engines, nitrogen, or helium, so airships couldn’t be built. All hot air balloons could only fly by wind, not by themselves.

However, it was enough for an air raid at close range, as there was always wind on the sea. Whether it was the east wind, the West Wind, or the north wind, they could all carry out air raids.

Of course, it was still the female Amazonian Warriors who carried out the air strike, and the crazy Princess Dora still had to lead the team to carry out this air strike.

………………

It was a beautiful day, and the sea breeze flew from east to west. It was the perfect time for an air raid.

Princess Dora was ready with more than a hundred female Amazons.

Shen lang went forward to hug Princess Dora and said, ” “Be careful, I wish you success.”

“I will, my Lord.” but my Lord, ” Princess Dora said, ” the hugging etiquette in the Western world doesn’t require you to hug me so tightly. So I suspect you’re taking advantage of me.

“No, how can I not?” Shen lang immediately let go.

Then, he came to general kui ning and hugged him. “I wish you success, general kuining.”

“Thank you, my Lord.” General kuining said shyly.

Her shyness almost made people forget that she loved to split people in half, and it was even the symmetrical half, extremely fierce.

Princess Ning Yan saw this and frowned. “Are we going to have a woman in our house?”

“Don’t worry, your husband is a scumbag,” Zhang Chunhua replied. He liked to take advantage of others when they were cold. But if they really do come to him, he’ll pretend that nothing happened and never take responsibility. This is your husband’s style.”

“How did you know?” Princess Ning Yan asked.

“Please don’t ask that question,” Zhang Chunhua replied faintly.

At this time, more than 100 ships had been cleared out, and each ship had a huge hot air balloon.

“Light up and heat up!”

Half an hour later, the huge hot air balloon had finished heating up and was floating in the air, ready to fly at any time.

“Load!”

Following the order, barrels of crude oil were put into the basket of the hot air balloon.

The maximum load of these hot air balloons was more than 800 kilograms, but to be on the safe side, each hot air balloon was only loaded with 13 barrels of crude oil.

“Board the cabin!”

Princess Dora entered the hot air balloon’s pod with more than a hundred female Amazons.

“Take off!”

The rope below was untied.

More than 100 hot air balloons began to slowly rise into the air, carrying more than 1000 barrels of crude oil and slowly flying in the direction of raging tide city.

………………

It had been close to a month since Shen Lang’s fleet sealed off raging tide city.

Raging tide city had already lost all respect as Shen lang had not gone ashore to start a war.

Under Yan nanfei’s hint, the merchants in the city donated their pay and even their own guards.

At this point, Yan nanfei’s Army had exceeded 130000 men.

At this point in time, the interests of the merchants and Yan nanfei were the same. They had both taken over the interests of the Jin family and Shen lang.

As he felt that he had seen through Shen Lang’s background, Yan nanfei was even more eager for Shen lang to attack raging tide city, in case the 100000 soldiers in his hands were useless. This was to prevent the 10000 Iron Blood Army of the hidden origins sect and 30000 stupa mountain Gu worm arrows from being useless.

In order to attract Shen lang to attack the city, Yan nanfei’s Army started to challenge him.

They set up their positions at the harbor and cursed at the castle by the sea.

“Shen lang, are you considered to have returned as a King? this is your wife’s furious tide city. Your Castle has been occupied by us, but you don’t dare to attack. How is this returning? It’s like the return of a turtle.”

“Shen lang, we will occupy the one million fields that you guys have cultivated. We will take over your mirror industry and your 100000 citizens will become our slaves. Thank you!”

“Shen lang, where’s your wife, Jin Mulan? How did you get this fleet? Don’t tell me you gave your wife to the Emperor of the Western world in exchange for this fleet?”

Emperor Shen lang, I heard that you became the XI Lun Emperor’s boy toy in the Western world and obtained this fleet by selling your ass.

“After paying such a big price, why don’t you come to attack raging tide city? this is your home! We’re in your home, eating your food, hugging your gold and silver, and sleeping with your people. It’s such a happy life!”

Your Majesty Shen lang who sells his/SS shares, come and hit us!

Yan nanfei ordered his troops to humiliate Shen lang and wanted to provoke him into fighting on land. Then, he would use his killing weapon to destroy Shen lang.

However, from the beginning to the end, Shen Lang’s Army was like a turtle that had hidden its head and did not move.

“You call this The Return of the King? Marshal, Shen lang might have really obtained this fleet by selling his ass in the Western world. He might even be the puppet of the xilun Emperor. Otherwise, why hasn’t he attacked the city yet?”

Of course, Yan nanfei was not that frivolous. Logically speaking, Shen lang would not dare to attack the city. The longer they dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for Shen lang.

Currently, Yue country was gathering its Army to form a defensive line in the East. There was also Zhu hongxue’s blood soul Army, which might be returning soon.

However, Yan nanfei’s heart grew heavier and heavier, and he became more and more uneasy.

This was because the Shen lang he knew was full of miracles. He should not be such a coward.

At this moment, one of his generals suddenly shouted, ” “W-what’s that?”

Yan nanfei raised his head.

Suddenly, more than a hundred giant balls flew up from the sea in the East.

It could actually fly?

What was the meaning of this?

Then, he found that these hundred giant balls were slowly flying towards raging tide city.

Soon, they flew over raging tide city.

“Shoot, shoot, shoot down these things!” Yan nanfei ordered.

After that, the iron Blood Army of the hidden origin sect started to shoot with all their might.

However, these hot air balloons were 1500 meters above the ground, so no arrows could hit them.

The next second!

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Countless black dots appeared in the sky.

Hundreds of crude oil barrels fell from the sky.

From this field of view, the dense black dots were like raindrops.

W-what was that?

After a few seconds of free-falling.

“Bang Bang Bang Bang!”

These oil barrels smashed onto the ground, the roof, and the walls.

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Every oil barrel contained Mercury acid, and there was more than one. No matter which angle it fell from, it would explode.

In an instant!

Thousands of oil barrels exploded one after another.

A shocking flame appeared.

The entire raging tide city was engulfed in a sea of fire.

Shen Lang’s plan to massacre the entire city had begun!

………………

[ note: sorry, it’s only 20 minutes in advance! ] I’m going to eat. I’ll try to start the next chapter an hour earlier! Brothers, give me your monthly votes, I’m about to explode, I’m really anxious!
