"Forget it, talking about money hurts feelings. Since the initiative is completely in your hands, it's up to you, Brother Ningyuan, to decide what we can get and what we should pay!"

After hesitating for a moment, Li Tianqi smiled and shook his head.

What he wanted most was to maintain his independence. Since Ning Yuan would not make the slightest concession on this point, he might as well just hand over the decision-making power to Ning Yuan and let Ning Yuan decide everything next.

After all, the players of their Tianfeng Knights will have to live under Ning Yuan in the future, and his cheap father-in-law will have to rely on Ning Yuan's breath to live a good life.

If he gets into trouble with Ning Yuan because of some vested interests, they will definitely suffer in the future.

So it is better to be generous and hand over all the rights to Ning Yuan and let him be the master of the house.

Seeing that Li Tianqi suddenly became so independent of the world, Ning Yuan was stunned for a moment and quickly figured out the connection.

He looked at Li Tianqi, who was about to lie down and accept his fate, and said with a hearty smile: "Brother Tianqi, since you trust me so much, I will definitely not betray your trust in me.

For my own people, as long as my bottom line is not touched, I will never let my own people suffer.

Let's do this, your cheap father-in-law, I will make him the Grand Duke of Sinai, and the fiefdom will be tentatively designated as Aqaba County. From now on, 20% of the income from Aqaba seaport will belong to your cheap father-in-law. .

As for you and your Tianfeng Knights, you must merge into the Tenglong Army.

From now on, you will be the Tenglong Tianfeng Knights under the Tenglong Army. Your title is the Duke of Tianfeng. There is no fief for the time being, but you can choose a nearby island as your permanent fief.

The above is the individual treatment I give you and your father-in-law. You can still enjoy all the treatment of other nobles of the Condor Empire.

How about it, Brother Tianqi, are you satisfied with my arrangement? "

"Although it's a lot worse than what other countries offer, who told you that the one you gave is the safest, so it's settled."

Looking at the smiling Ning Yuan, Li Tianqi responded with a smile.

"That's natural. Even if others let you continue to be king, when the army of my Condor Empire arrives, you will be left with nothing in an instant.

And these things I promised you are basically impossible to change.

Even though the title of the Condor Empire is not very valuable now, as time goes by, you will find that the title of the Condor Empire will become more and more noble, and it is still impossible to buy even with money, because only Only then can I proceed with the canonization.

Even if none of us stop playing this game in the future, our descendants who remain in the game will still be able to continue to enjoy everything we have left to them.

What does it mean to be a wife and a shadow? This is to be a wife and a shadow. "

After comforting Li Tianqi for a while, Ning Yuan changed the subject and continued: "Brother Tianqi, next we should discuss how to support you.

Before deciding how many troops to send, I would like to ask first how much food your Lamu Principality has now and how many troops can be supplied to stay with you for half a year. "

"Counting the 60,000 troops in our Principality of Lamu, I estimate that the entire Principality of Lamu can only accommodate 100,000 troops at most. Any more, and you will have to carry your own logistics supplies."

After pondering for a moment, Li Tianqi replied solemnly.

“One hundred thousand troops, including your 60,000, that’s 160,000 troops.

These 160,000 troops are likely to face attacks from three sides by three countries, so they must be the best among the best..."

Ning Yuan murmured to himself while constantly filtering every army in the Condor Empire in his mind.

This request for help from the Principality of Ram is a very good opportunity for the Condor Empire, but it also comes with huge risks.

Before, Ning Yuan had not thought about attacking the Arabian Peninsula from the sea, and then entering the Persian Plateau, so that the enemy would be attacked from both sides.

However, on the Arabian Peninsula, the Condor Empire has no foothold, and the entire Middle East is shrouded in forbidden airspace, which makes Ning Yuan dare not easily go on an expedition.

Now that the Principality of Lamu is asking for help, Ning Yuan sees the dawn of a breakthrough in the Arabian Peninsula, so the moment Li Tianqi took the initiative to find him, he had already made up his mind to make the Principality of Lamu the foothold of the Condor Empire on the Arabian Peninsula. Clicked.

Although the foothold is now available, it is limited by the national strength of the Principality of Ram and the distance between the Bay of Bengal and the Bay of Aqaba. Even if the Condor Empire has an invincible maritime fleet, the difficulty of logistical supply is very high. big.

To transport logistical supplies from the Bay of Bengal to the Aqaba region requires a distance of more than 10,000 kilometers. If something happens to the fleet at sea, the frontline troops will probably be hungry.

Thinking about the main force of the Central Asian and Middle Eastern coalition forces currently trapped in the Kazakh Khanate, Ning Yuan did not want to repeat their mistakes in the Arabian Peninsula, so he had to consider a series of logistical issues.

After thinking about it, Ning Yuan believed that relying solely on supplies from the Principality of Lamu was simply not feasible, because Turkmenistan did not know how long the fight would last. The troops supporting the Principality of Lamu would probably have to stay there for a while. A year and a half.

It is even more unfeasible to transport logistical supplies from the mainland of the Condor Empire to the Principality of Ram, because the food in Bangladesh is also limited, and the number of Condor Empire troops there is larger.

If too much food is taken away by force, it may affect the protracted war strategy there.

After the Lamu Principality and sea transportation were not very reliable, Ning Yuan thought of a strategy to solve the problem on the spot.

He looked at Li Tianqi and asked: "Brother Tianqi, which of the three countries, the Kingdom of Jerusalem, the Kingdom of Jordan, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, has the largest grain reserves, and which granary is located closest to your Principality of Lamu?"

After hearing Ning Yuan's question, Li Tianqi was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook his head and said, "Brother Ning Yuan, our Lamu Principality is surrounded by mountains on three sides and by the sea on one side. Except for some valleys, plains and basins, there are everywhere. Deserts and mountains.

It is precisely because the nearby terrain is relatively dangerous that we have been able to persist until now.

If it weren't for the Gulf of Aqaba, it would have no strategic value at all. Even the ancient city of Petra would be closer to the enemy's city.

It's just because it is now a desolate Grand Canyon, and the Jordanian players do not want to conflict with the Kingdom of Jerusalem before finding a way to activate the ancient city of Petra, so they acquiesce to our Principality of Lamu's occupation there.

In fact, our Principality of Ram does not have any garrison in the ancient city of Petra. I just send a team of cavalry to patrol there every day.

Let's put it this way, if you want to go to the enemy's territory to grab food, then I advise you to kill this sweetheart as soon as possible, because there is no large-scale enemy garrison within a radius of a hundred kilometers. "

Li Tianqi first described the geographical environment around the Lamu Principality to Ning Yuan, and then persuaded Ning Yuan to give up the idea of ​​robbery. After all, it was too risky.

After listening to Li Tianqi's description, Ning Yuan frowned slightly, but he did not give up the idea of ​​​​looting food and supplies on the spot, because currently this method is the most reliable, and there is no other way. The distance of this expedition is too far. .

After taking out his tablet and studying the local terrain carefully, a light suddenly flashed in Ning Yuan's mind.

So he immediately looked at Li Tianqi and asked: "Brother Tianqi, when Jordanian players conquer your Lamu Principality this time, is their only target the location of Aqaba County?

After all, except here, other places are basically barren land. "

"Yes, that's true, because the population of our Lamu Principality is mainly concentrated in the plains and canyon basins of Aqaba County.

If Jordanian players want to destroy the Principality of Lamu, they only need to conquer Aqaba County. There is no point in conquering other places. "

Although he didn't know why Ning Yuan asked this question, Li Tianqi answered immediately.

"Then if you only rely on your own 60,000 troops, how long can you hold it?

I mean the entire army retreated to Aqaba County. "

Ning Yuan asked again.

“If we only have the army of the Kingdom of Jordan, we can hold on for at least two months with some transportation arteries.

If Saudi Arabia on the side also joins in, it will be difficult to say at this time, because our maritime defense force is basically zero.

Once Saudi Arabia chooses to attack Aqaba by sea, I don't know if we can prevent them from landing. "

With that said, Li Tianqi looked at Ning Yuan, wanting to see if Ning Yuan wanted to let Saudi Arabia attack the Principality of Lamu from the sea.

Seeing Li Tianqi asking him, Ning Yuan immediately replied: "Brother Tianqi, don't worry, your enemies will only appear on land, because the sea power of Saudi players is basically zero. As long as you are prepared, their small boats It poses no threat to you."

After getting a clear answer from Ning Yuan, Li Tianqi continued his analysis:

“If Saudi Arabia’s military cannot travel by sea, even if they declare war on us, they will not be able to have much effect in a short period of time because the terrain around Aqaba cannot deploy too many troops.

So even if we are attacked by these two countries at the same time, we can persist for at least two months.

However, if the Kingdom of Jerusalem also joins this war, the situation will be difficult to predict, because their army can come directly along the lowlands west of the Jebgan River.

Although that Renault is very arrogant, the combat effectiveness of the Blue Crusaders under him cannot be overshadowed.

After being blessed by the Holy City and Mount Sinai, those fanatical believers armed with swords and shields became even more difficult to deal with.

So if the Kingdom of Jerusalem suddenly intervenes, I won't even be sure to hold on for a week.

Because the Blue Crusaders in the Kingdom of Jerusalem are really terrifying, and we didn't build many fortifications on the side facing them. "

Looking at Li Tianqi who looked worried, Ning Yuan gave him a reassuring look and comforted him: "Don't worry, before the Condor Empire's army officially lands in Aqaba, the Kingdom of Jerusalem will not pay attention to you, because their mortal enemy Aqaba The Yubu Kingdom has not yet signed a ceasefire agreement with them.

I estimate that even if you immediately declare the Principality of Lamu to become a vassal state of the Condor Empire, and then the Condor Empire's naval fleet appears in the Gulf of Aqaba, the guy who calls himself Baldwin VI will not pay too much attention to you.

Because everyone knows that the soldiers of the Tianfeng Knights are all Chinese players, it is a normal reaction for you to ask for help from the Eagle Empire when you are in danger of being destroyed.

At the same time, they all know very well that distant water cannot quench near thirst.

Even if the Principality of Ram has become a vassal state of the Condor Empire, I will not have time to send troops to support you, because the distance is too far, far beyond the attack range of the Condor Empire.

If I forcibly send troops to support you, then I guess they will be very happy, because then they will also have the opportunity to besiege the elites of the Condor Empire in the Aqaba area.

Therefore, it is impossible for the Kingdom of Jerusalem to pay attention to you until the troops of the Condor Empire officially land.

The only question now is whether you can hold on until the reinforcements arrive, because I need to mobilize these reinforcements from the mainland of the Condor Empire. The fleet carrying these reinforcements must rush over to help you control the Gulf of Aqaba navy. Arrived many days late.

You must withstand the enemy's attack on land until the fleet carrying reinforcements arrives. "

After saying that, Ning Yuan looked directly at Li Tianqi.

"How long will it take for reinforcements to arrive?"

Seeing Ning Yuan's serious expression, Li Tianqi immediately asked.

“I don’t know either, because no one can tell what’s going on in the ocean.

Your side is an unknown territory for our fleet. I really can't give a clear answer to how long it will take to sail to find the Gulf of Aqaba where you are.

It could be a month, it could be two months, it could even be longer. "

Ning Yuan shook his head helplessly.

There is no way, this is the case with sea routes. In unexplored and unknown areas, no one can guarantee that we will not take more wrong paths or even get completely lost.

"Then I can only hold on as long as possible. If your naval fleet cannot arrive here within three months, then I will have to consider myself unlucky."

Seeing that Ning Yuan was unable to give accurate information at this time, Li Tianqi could only smile bitterly.

"Brother Tianqi, your mission is not only to hold on longer, but also to try to get the enemy to send more troops to you.

Only in this way, when my army arrives, can we obtain more food and supplies from the enemy. "

Although it was uncertain how long it would take to arrive, Ning Yuan still did not forget the strategy of grabbing food and supplies on the spot.

"I will try my best!"

Seeing that Ning Yuan was still thinking about the enemy's food and supplies, Li Tianqi shook his head helplessly.
