"These pirates are really the cancer of the Caribbean Sea. If they only stay at sea, then so be it. But their desires can no longer be satisfied by the riches and treasures on the sea surface. Instead, they extend their hands and feet to the bottom of the sea. Our Blue Moon Empire will never allow such behavior. Since they dare to extend their hands and feet, then we must cut off their hands and feet."
Lan Que's face revealed a fierce and determined expression.
Since others had extended their hands into their home, there was naturally no reason not to cut them off, especially pirates. What were pirates? They were like a group of locusts. Raping, raping, pillaging, committing all kinds of crimes. Murder and arson were their specialties. They only knew how to destroy and not build. There was no civilization to speak of. Once they invaded, it would only bring war and disaster. It would truly make the pain last for countless years.
"Both of us will join forces. The land on the sea will belong to the Great Yi Dynasty, and the sea will belong to our Blue Moon Empire."
Lan Que continued.
The sincerity contained in this was obviously quite sufficient.
However, in the main hall, all the officials were silent. Conquering the Caribbean Sea seemed to have endless benefits, but the bottom of the sea had to be given to the Blue Moon Empire. This was something that the officials were more resistant to. Even if there were countless forces in the sea, once they occupied the Caribbean Sea, there would be a dynasty in the sea. This was undoubtedly a country within a country. It was like a thorn in the throat, difficult to swallow.
"Da Yi has only just covered the Vast Sea Domain. Many immortal cities are newly established, and the people in the cities have not yet completely stabilized. Our control over the surrounding areas is also relatively weak. Moreover, Da Yi is currently experiencing natural disasters. Lightning strikes, floods, and storms are endless, which greatly affect the people in various places. Many areas have no harvest. In my humble opinion, Da Yi should not act rashly for the time being."
Xi Zhi took a step forward and suggested.
Right now, everything in Da Yi was improving the people's lives and stabilizing the entire Vast Sea Domain. It was obviously not the best time to send troops to the Caribbean Sea. Moreover, whether what the Blue Moon Empire said was true or not was still unknown.
He would be an idiot if he believed whatever they said.
How could they easily believe such national affairs?
It was inconvenient for Yi Tianxing to refuse directly. As officials, they naturally could not ignore it. When it was time to speak, it was naturally decisive.
"That's right, it's not a good thing to send troops rashly. However, it's not impossible to send an army over. It's just the right time to investigate the specific situation in the Caribbean Sea. Pirates have no fixed residence, but in the sea, my Da Yi Navy's strength is not inferior. Sending an army into it is not impossible to train them. "
Jia Xu said with a smile as he took a step forward.
The Caribbean Sea was chaotic, but there was absolutely no lack of wars and killings. Battles between pirates happened every day. If an army was deployed there, it could be used to train soldiers, grinding out batches of elite iron-blooded warriors.
That was the most important thing.
He could also find out all kinds of information about the Caribbean Sea. Be a nail driven into the Caribbean.
"Yes, I second the motion. Since the Blue Moon Empire has come to request to send troops, why don't we send a naval force over? On one hand, it can serve as a deterrent to those pirates, and on the other hand, it can be considered as contributing to the Blue Moon Empire."
Zhuge Liang also said with a smile.
Of course, if an army were to head over, it would at most be able to intimidate some pirates, and it might not be able to completely annihilate the pirates. There was practically a heaven and earth difference between this and the expectations of the Blue Moon Empire. However, to be able to send an army, it was undoubtedly already able to clearly display Dayi's attitude.
After all, the Blue Moon Empire was not a vassal state of Da Yi. Da Yi had never needed to solve their enemies for them.
If they agreed, it would be a favor. If they didn't, it would be their duty.
No one dared to say anything else.
"This …"
Hearing what the officials in the main hall said, Lan Que's face showed a clear hint of hesitation.
Originally, he thought that if they handed over all the territory on the sea to Da Yi, it should be able to arouse Da Yi's interest. He should send a large number of troops to the Caribbean Sea to eliminate the pirates. After all, the benefits were so great that no matter who it was, it was difficult to refuse.
But an accident happened.
Da Yi could actually resist the temptation of a domain. What was the use of just sending an army? For pirates everywhere, it was completely a drop in the bucket. It was insignificant and could not change the overall situation.
This was obviously not the result they wanted the most.
The most important purpose of this diplomatic mission was to use the powerful strength of Da Yi to eliminate the pirates in one fell swoop.
There were some things, obviously, that were not said to Da Yi.
"Very well, in that case, it's decided. When the time comes, send an army to the Caribbean Sea to suppress the pirates. "Yi Tianxing nodded and finally made a decision.
A ruler did not go back on his words. Once it was said, there was naturally no possibility of changing it.
Lan Que originally wanted to say something, but after Yi Tianxing spoke, he could only move his lips, but did not make a sound. Things had come to this point, and it could not be easily changed, especially at this moment in the court. How could he let the ruler of a country change his decision? That was a provocation to his prestige.
.....
Not long after, the court meeting ended.
Lan Que and the other two also returned to the state guesthouse.
Inside the guesthouse, the three of them all had a grave look on their faces.
Obviously, they were not very satisfied with the results this time.
"Second Elder, what do we do now? Although the first two goals have been achieved, the third goal has not been achieved. This is the main reason we came to Da Yi. According to the news we found, the ten legendary Pirate Kings have already begun to gather the pirate army, preparing to attack and loot our Blue Moon Empire. This time, it is one of the biggest disasters of our empire. If we cannot survive, I'm afraid our vitality will be greatly damaged. Da Yi only sent out an army, and it is completely unable to change the situation of the war. It will intimidate those pirates. "
Lan Que's face turned pale.
This time in the Skyward Palace, he did not tell the truth. This time, he came to Da Yi to form an alliance, but more importantly, he wanted to obtain Da Yi's promise to send an army to attack the Pirate Alliance. Unfortunately, this promise was not fulfilled at all. An army was not what they wanted.
This was not to say that the strength of the Blue Moon Empire was inferior to that of the Pirate Alliance. It was just that the Pirate Alliance appeared and disappeared mysteriously. Moreover, their goal was to burn, kill, and loot. Destruction was much easier than construction. Once the battlefield appeared in the Blue Moon Empire, the losses would naturally be huge. What they wanted was to take the initiative to attack the pirates and completely erase the idea of attacking the Blue Moon Empire. But now, this goal seemed impossible to achieve.
This was really a headache for them.
"Is there any way to make Da Yi send out more armies? According to legend, the Da Yi army is very valiant. The soldiers in the army are all able to fight one against ten. An army in the Caribbean Sea should be able to suppress a legendary Pirate King. If there are a few more armies, we can change the situation. "
Lan Caixin took a deep breath and spoke with a trace of hope.
"A king does not joke. Without knowing the specific situation in the Caribbean Sea, Da Yi will not agree to send a large army. However, since this is the case, the first two goals have been achieved. In the future, the two sides will establish trade and form an alliance. As time passes, the relationship between the two sides will naturally deepen. When that time comes, there will be a chance to change things. Da Yi will not be trapped in the Vast Sea Realm and will certainly expand outwards. The Caribbean Sea is adjacent to Da Yi and is a domain that must be chosen for expansion. Sooner or later, we will have to face those pirates. "
Second Elder shook his head and said.
Although they could not invite Da Yi's army this time, the Blue Moon Empire would not be too afraid of those Pirate Kings. At most, they would suffer some losses. A few Pirate Kings could not do anything to the Blue Moon Empire.
"Well, in that case, I want to take a stroll in Da Yi and see the customs of Da Yi. I want to see how different the human civilization on land is from ours." Lan Caixin revealed a trace of curiosity. She was full of interest.
Da Yi was the first empire in the world. In the Eternal World, there was no one who did not know about it. The prosperity here made people envious. Naturally, they wanted to experience it personally. They wanted to feel the difference in Da Yi. In particular, they came from the bottom of the sea and were even more curious about the land.
Not long after, they decided to take a closer look in Da Yi and have some fun. It just so happened that they were carrying a large number of treasures this time. They could treat it as a caravan and start their first trade exchange.
.....
Eternal Night World.
In a vast demonic domain.
One could see that this Demon Domain was filled with a kind of savage aura. It was ancient and mysterious, as if it had existed for a very long time. There was a kind of strange Chaos Demon Qi left. However, this Demon Domain was a scene of desolation everywhere. There were no flowers, trees, birds or beasts. The earth was covered with Demon Qi, but there was not a trace of life. It looked like a dead world. It made people feel fear and horror.
This was definitely not a normal Demon Domain.
"Interesting. This is one of the Demon Domains of the Eternal Night World. It really is a forbidden area. The entire world here is constantly devouring life. "
There was a flash of light in the Void. A figure in a black robe stood in the Void naturally.
It was none other than Yi Tianxie.
Using the passage to the Demon Cave, he went against the flow and directly rushed into the Demon Domain that was connected to the Demon Cave. This way of entering was not ordinary. The passage to the Demon Cave was actually one-way. One could only enter the Eternal World and not return to the Eternal Night World. However, Yi Tianxie went against the flow. This had to do with his nature. Otherwise, he would not have been able to reach the Ancient Demon Domain.
He entered here.
However, as soon as he entered, he immediately felt that there was an invisible law in the world that wanted to quickly devour the life essence of all living beings here. However, Yi Tianxie smiled slightly and restrained his aura, locking all the life essence in his body. He did not let it continue to flow.
Thump! Thump!
At this moment, he heard a strange sound reverberating in the Void.
"This is … the sound of a heart beating."
Hearing this, Yi Tianxie frowned slightly and looked around. He already had a guess in his mind.
