Chapter 482: Treading on the Sand or the Eightfold Island?
Gu Chen told Ningguang the general situation of Ta'ersha and Bayun Island, hoping that she could give him some advice and help him choose between the two.
Ningguang pondered for a moment and said:
“There are advantages and disadvantages to both places.
But selfishly, I prefer stepping on the sand."
"Why?"
"Master Gu Chen, you just said that the Imperial Shadow Furnace Core there is now in a damaged state and needs to be repaired, otherwise there is a risk of explosion.
Since you say so, it means that the Imperial Shadow Furnace Core has the possibility of being repaired."
Gu Chen nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case:
"Yes, there's an unlucky Fontaine who's been staying near the thunderstorm area of the Imperial Shadow Furnace's heart. There's always an exclamation mark hanging over his head, just waiting for someone to come and help him repair the Imperial Shadow Furnace's heart!
The solution to this problem is in his hands.”
Ningguang tilted her head in confusion, unable to understand:
"With an exclamation point hanging over your head?"
Gu Chen waved his hand:
"Don't worry, it's just a joke.
The core of the Imperial Shadow Furnace uses Fontaine's technology. The Fontaine man is like a technician, and he has the repair method.
But this person only has the method to repair it, not the ability to repair it."
"Okay, I guess I can understand.
In short, the Yuying furnace core can indeed be repaired.
Now that it has been repaired, it can definitely be used.
When this Gokage furnace core is used again, Tadashi Sand will once again become Inazuma's main sword forging industry.
Stationing troops in such an important place will have a restraining effect on Inazuma's important industries.
By then, both the shogunate and the Inazuma nobles will inevitably have to act according to our instructions.
Therefore, I prefer to station troops in Talingsha."
Listening to Ningguang's advice, Gu Chen couldn't help but give her a serious look:
"Ningguang, you're really ruthless! You've caught the opponent's weak spot with just one move.
I have to admit that what you said makes sense.
But isn’t this too radical?
Directly curbing the Inazuma's most important industry is tantamount to dancing on the sensitive nerves of the Inazuma shogunate, not to mention that we are already somewhat aggressive. "
Hearing what Gu Chen said, Ningguang smiled a little embarrassedly:
"So I just have this inclination. Whether to choose this place or not still depends on your decision."
In response to Ningguang's compliment, Gu Chen also smiled.
After thinking about it, he finally shook his head:
"Forget it, I'd rather not choose the Tassel Sand."
"Why?"
"Because not only is there something as important as the Mikage Rushin on the Tadasu Sand, but also the Shogunate Army's largest military camp, the Kujo Jinya, is also on the Tadasu Sand.
In other words, if our army is stationed on Taro Sand, it will inevitably be adjacent to the main force of the shogunate army.
Think about it, this is not only stationed under the opponent's nose, but also curbing the opponent's most important industry.
This two-pronged approach does seem to be a bit too much pressure on Inazuma.
The situation would be tense, and there was a high possibility of an accidental clash with the main force of the shogunate army. If a fight really broke out, it would be troublesome and would lead to disputes between countries."
Following this line of thought, Ningguang nodded:
"Indeed, as you said, choosing to station troops in Tadashi Sand is indeed a bit radical."
Just as Ningguang agreed, something suddenly flashed through Gu Chen's mind.
It felt like I had grasped something, but also not grasped something. In short, it was a bit awkward and confusing.
Struggling with this feeling, Gu Chen fell into a brief moment of contemplation.
Ningguang noticed something strange about Gu Chen and asked with concern:
"Master Gu Chen, what's wrong with you?"
Shaking his head, Gu Chen still couldn't remember anything:
"nothing.
In this case, if Tadashi Sand is eliminated, the only option left is to station the army on Bayun Island."
Ningguang nodded, still feeling a little worried:
"But didn't you say that there are evil spirits on Bayun Island that infect the human body?"
Gu Chen didn't care about this:
"As for the evil spirit, that kind of thing is easy to deal with. It can be re-sealed, but the sealing process is a bit cumbersome.
It doesn't matter. We have a lot of people. We can send people to act separately and deal with it separately. We will be able to seal the evil spirit again soon, and then the environment of Bayun Island will be clear again.
If all else fails, I can also directly release a large-scale full moon light wave that covers the entire island.
With a wave of full moon light, all the evil spirits and resentments of the demons were purified completely.
Eliminating the evil spirit will not only provide us with a clean base, but also have another benefit."
Ningguang followed up with a follow-up question:
"What's the benefit?"
"People's hearts and minds."
"Public support?"
"That's right.
Yasumi Island is the island with the largest number of Inazuma people, except for Narukami Island and Umijima Island, and there are many villages and towns on the island.
However, due to the war and the worship of gods, most of the Inazuma people on the island died during this period, and the people there suffered terribly.
But people are resilient.
Even in this situation, a considerable number of victims were displaced and fled to the junction of Yamyou Island and Nashiki Beach, where they barely survived.
Now that the Inazuma shogunate has large-scale disaster relief, it will be easier for the victims on Yamashima Island to survive.
After our army is stationed on Bayun Island and the evil spirit is dealt with, these disaster victims will definitely return to Bayun Island to resume their lives and production.
By then, our army, which has eliminated the evil spirit and maintained order, will be a new protective force for the people of Bayun Island.
They are bound to support us, and our army is bound to win the support of the people there.
Ningguang.
It is said that the right time is not as important as the right location, and the right location is not as important as the right people.
Once we win the hearts of the people, we will win the support of the people.
The land of Yasumi Island is relatively suitable for farming. It is located between Narukami Island and Kaiji Island, which can isolate the communication between the two major hostile forces in Inazuma to a certain extent.
As long as our army is nailed to Yayun Island like a nail, the Inazuma Shogunate and the Coral Palace on Kaiki Island will not be able to reach an absolute reconciliation due to our existence.
In other words, it is impossible for the country of Inazuma to achieve absolute unity.
This is what it means to have a geographical advantage.
The evil spirits were eliminated and the island of Bayun was restored to a bright and peaceful state, with good weather and good harvests once again.
This is what it means to have the right timing.
I have the right time, right place, and right people. When the time comes, our army will be invincible on Bayun Island!"
Gu Chen spoke his theory eloquently, and Ningguang's eyes brightened the more she listened.
In the end, she almost admired him wholeheartedly:
"I see……
Master Gu Chen is very thoughtful and farsighted, I cannot compare to him..."
Gu Chen couldn't help but shook his head and laughed:
"Alright, alright, Ningguang, you don't have to flatter me anymore.
In fact, in addition to what I have said above, there is another benefit to choosing to station troops on Bayun Island."
Ningguang listened attentively with great interest:
"Master Gu Chen, please be kind enough to teach me."
