The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

"You ask for a high price, but you pay it back low."

So Shu Yichao got an extremely outrageous condition.

Several islands along the coast of Guangdong and Fujian were ceded for the storage and trade of pirates and Zheng's army, and the peasant soldiers were not allowed to land on the islands.

Return the cities that had been occupied by Zheng's army without reason and allow trade.

Missionary work is allowed, the church can collect a tax from its members, and church property is tax-free...

Open up the opium market and compensate for the losses caused previously, etc.

The message has been sent.

Can't read back.

Shu Yichao no longer had any hope in these guys' thinking.

"I really want to chop off their heads and see what's inside."

Shu Yichao, who had simply abandoned the frontline troops where they were and rushed back, was too tired to complain.

"All troops, prepare for battle!"

"It's this naval battle..."

"How can I do this?"

Shu Yichao was a little scratching his head.

He doesn't have any warships.

Lotus leaf boats are really not suitable for sea battles.

Moreover, the opposing generals seemed very cunning. When the visibility was good during the day, they drove to the river and bombarded Guangzhou City.

When it got dark, they disappeared without a trace, leaving only some small boats and speedboats to block the sea.

This means that Shu Yichao is now surrounded by the fog of war and is truly in the dark.

Just when Shu Yichao was thinking about how to fight the next battle.

Sophia's eyes lit up, and she moved to Shu Yichao's side, quietly pushing the big white goose away.

"My Apocalypse~~~"

"Do you want to chop off their heads?"

"Your servant can help you~~~"

"..." The big white moth in Shu Yichao's arms shook its antennae unconsciously, and squeezed back against Sophia's somewhat gloomy eyes.

"Huh?" Not long after, Shu Yichao saw a group of black shadows that almost filled the streets of the city.

"King of Dian!"

When the representative of this group saw Shu Yichao coming out, he hurried forward and bowed.

"We are all fishermen and sea merchants from the surrounding area."

"When Shangni was digging up the seawall, the King of Meng Dian didn't abandon him, so he was lucky enough to survive."

"Then he provided us with property, provided medical care for the sick, food for the hungry, and clothing for the cold.

At this point, many people were so moved that they burst into tears.

I have never seen such a benevolent and righteous army in my entire life.

Now they finally understood what a true king teacher was.

Although Shu Yichao only developed infrastructure and implemented policies in a way that would maximize population growth.

"I cannot repay the King of Dian for his kindness even if I die a thousand times!" the leader continued.

"Hearing the pirates were coming, we came to surrender and serve the King of Dian!"

"We have already found out where the pirate fleet is anchored at night.

"I am willing to be the vanguard of the king's army!"

After the leader shouted like this, the people behind him also shouted loudly in excitement.

“I am willing to be the vanguard of the king’s army!!”

[You have encountered a new event.]

[A group of fishermen and sea merchants came to you out of gratitude.]

[Do you accept?]

[If you choose yes, your inventory gold will be reduced, and you will get a medium-sized fleet.]

[Select No…]

"..…uh-huh?"

Shu Yichao opened the interface and fell into deep thought.

"By the way, the gold leaves I gave you last time haven't been used up yet, right?"

“Oh my!”

"Isn't this the perfect time?"

"I told you, there's no reward without reason-

“Every game reward and hint has its place!”

System 12345: [……]

I don’t think that’s what I meant.

[Host, what?]

Shu Yichao ignored it.

My head itches.

It seems like I am growing a brain.

The turbid waves flew high from time to time, and then suddenly fell down heavily, turning into pieces of white fragments floating in the wind.

And on this turbulent sea, the anchored United Navy was slowly raising its sails, preparing to attack Guangzhou City again.

"It's really foggy today."

Alexia stood on the deck, looking at the white sea fog that covered the sky, smelling the sea breeze with a slight fishy smell, her brows tightly furrowed.

"Tsk."

"What on earth was the King of Dian thinking about?"

"I always feel a sense of crisis that is both imminent and imminent.

"Hiss, should we..." She lowered her head in thought.

"What did you overlook?"

"What can be ignored?" Zheng Yao curled his lips, indicating that Alexia was simply thinking too much.

"The King of Dian is just pretending to be dead."

He said he was very familiar with it.

Those corrupt officials of the Meng and Qin courts were basically in this state when faced with disaster victims in need of relief -

I can't see, I don't know, don't ask me.

"His navy doesn't even have slightly better warships, how can it compete with our army?"

"So, after being frightened to death, he simply pretended to be dead, pretending that our blockade of Guangzhou waters never happened, to save his own face..."

"cut!"

"If you ask me, we still have to take down Guangzhou City."

"Tear off his face and see how crazy he is!"

"At worst, we can land somewhere else, avoiding the position of the straw soldier artillery position..."

Just as Zheng Yao was spitting all over the sky, proudly telling about how to take over the grand blueprint of Guangzhou City -

Alexia keenly noticed something wrong ahead.

In the vast fog, countless shadows seemed to be emerging, like poisonous snakes lurking in the swamp.

"Attention all ships!!"

She shouted loudly.

"Deploy the formation!!"

"Enemy attack!"

"Splash, splash!" Amid the surging waves and whitecaps, one black ship after another, with white sails hoisted, emerged from the vast fog like sharp knives.

And there seemed to be a faint green on those ships, as if they were loaded with a lot of plants.

"Boat!?"

Alexia was stunned.

“Ship!!!”

She finally realized what she had overlooked.

Fishermen and merchants along the coast!

This group of guys also has a lot of ships. Although they are not as good as Zheng’s army and pirates, they are enough.

Moreover, many of them are not only good at swimming, but also good at driving ships.

But in the past, they were the targets of oppression, blackmail and extortion by pirates and the Qin court, and were simply the invisible ones who were bullied.

In addition, Guangzhou had suffered a disaster not long ago, causing extremely heavy losses, so Alexia meaningfully ignored them.

But they never expected that Shu Yichao would actually bring them here.

"This bunch of troublemakers."

"It seems that the lessons we learned in the past were not enough."

"You actually have the guts to go against us."

"asshole!!"

"Now our escape route is blocked—wait!?"

After her initial anger, Alexia quickly calmed down.

After carefully observing the incoming fleet, the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up.

"what the hell."

"It's just a group of merchant ships, and their number is much smaller than ours."

"Tsk tsk tsk, sailing is sailing, naval battle is naval battle-

"That's two completely different things!"

"Using his own weaknesses to attack his own strengths, the King of Dian is truly out of his mind."

"General." Alexia said to Zheng Yao.

"It seems that the King of Dian has completely lost his mind."

“They actually pulled in some fishermen at short notice and came here to die.”

"Hahaha!!" Zheng Yao was laughing so hard that tears were almost coming out.

"Merchant ship?"

"A bunch of merchant ships?"

"It's amazing that he could come up with that!"

"Using a boat like this to cut off our retreat?"

"It's not certain who will copy whose retreat."
