Chapter 250 New World and New System
Although cheating is allowed, the necessary preparations still need to be made.
Yan Xu first increased investment in the Fushima Shipyard and accelerated the production of new ships, because according to the next strategic development, the navy will be the top priority.
As long as they have a strong navy, the Moroboshi family will not only be able to occupy the two secondary islands, but also use the secondary islands as a springboard to threaten half of the main island, and this has always been the strategic plan of the Mori family.
Unfortunately, the Amago clan has a large number of troops tied up on the main island, and the Otomo clan, Kono clan, and Miyoshi clan on the two secondary islands are also not in a position to fight against each other. When they unite, they are like a chain, making it impossible for the Mori clan, which was originally the strongest, to concentrate on targeting any one of them.
At present, the Mori family has been forced to cede land and pay compensation due to Yan Xu's defeat, and there are thousands of elite troops stationed in Amano Castle. If he dares to move, Yan Xu will dare to penetrate the Mori family's heartland.
Without the strongest navy, the Mori family, to interfere, and one of the two secondary islands had been occupied by the Moroboshi family in advance, so as long as we were careful about the Amago family, we could concentrate on dealing with the second secondary island. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Once the second sub-island is successfully occupied, the Moroboshi family will own Amano Castle, the three major ports of the first and second sub-islands, and perfectly include a corner of the main island. Especially for the Mori family, almost all of their territory is within the strike range of the Moroboshi family navy.
This is also the reason why the Mori family was willing to cut diagonally and divide a large coastal area to the Moroboshi family, because the Mori Daimyo had already anticipated it and had to make the worst-case scenario plan.
With the addition of a large number of skilled workers to the Amano Castle Shipyard, the number of ships of the Moroboshi family could double in less than half a year.
The arsenal also increased production because sales of iron cannons were better than expected.
The war between the Moroboshi family and the Mori family was no secret. These two wars perfectly demonstrated how a small force could defeat a large one with firearms, which made it impossible for the daimyo from all over the country not to be tempted.
Yan Xu didn't care about the proliferation of these old-fashioned matchlock rifles, so he allowed the merchants in the territory to sell them freely.
The best way to use firearms is to fire in a concentrated manner to make up for the low hit rate. However, when the range, hit rate, and rate of fire are not advantageous, firing in a line is seeking death, otherwise Yan Xu would have sold it out freely.
Soon all these things came to an end, because a new world was about to open, and Yan Xu needed to prepare in advance.
Before the new world opened, Yan Xu went to the wasteland world.
Unexpectedly, not only did the Bai Jie Church not react at all, but even other forces did not react either. So everything seemed like Yan Xu's imagination.
However, Yan Xu was not careless and still delivered supplies to different places from time to time, trying to be as careful as possible whether going there or not.
As for whether he can recover his costs, Yan Xu, who is about to own more and more new worlds, doesn't care. For him, as long as he can maintain the status quo, it will be fine, because when he becomes really strong, all problems will no longer be problems.
"The Ming world and the martial arts system." Yan Xu sighed. If this was his first world, it would be considered pretty good and suitable as a stepping stone to becoming extraordinary. But now he has become extraordinary and is becoming more and more inhuman. If he is given these again, he will inevitably look down on them, unless that world is not a pure martial arts world.
He shook his head and was determined not to be careless. After all, he didn't know what the limitations of that world were. If there were too many restrictions and he could only use his body and martial arts, he would not be 100% safe.
Let's first see if the cheat code is effective. Thinking of this, Yan Xu opened the new system. Unexpectedly, there was an attribute column, but it was too simple, not even as good as a third-rate web game.
This is the worst cheat code he has ever seen, Yan Xu thought with disdain, and then began to study its functions.
Attributes: Comprehension 30, Bones 80, Fists and Kicks 60, Weapons 90, Hidden Weapons 30, External Skills 90, Internal Skills 50, Light Skills 30. Skills: Iron Shirt (mastered to perfection), Tai Chi (somewhat accomplished), Spring and Autumn Swordsmanship (somewhat accomplished), Lightning Thunder Fist (beginner's guide)
After fiddling with it for a long time with a frown on his brow, Yan Xu slowly relaxed and smiled.
Although it is not good, it is still a golden finger and it still has some function.
The attribute column shows his talent, not to mention his understanding and strength. The following types are the areas in which everyone is good at.
Letting people who are sensitive to numbers study science will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort. On the contrary, if they study liberal arts, although they may not achieve nothing, it will definitely be laborious.
The same applies to these attributes. Let those who are suitable for boxing and kicking practice the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, and let those who are suitable for weapons training practice the Nine Swords of Dugu. This is the professional match.
Judging from the numbers, Yan Xu is more suitable for the route of a fierce general. He does not need a high level of comprehension. He can just go into battle with heavy armor and long weapons and slash around. If he wants to go the route of a martial artist, he will have some shortcomings.
Next is the skill column. In addition to displaying the level of the skill, it also allows you to gain experience points every time you practice. In other words, as long as you practice, you will make progress. With persistent practice, reaching the pinnacle of the skill is only a matter of time.
"This is probably the greatest function of the new system." Yan Xu sighed.
The biggest problems in cultivation are, first, getting started; second, bottlenecks; and third, wear and tear. It becomes increasingly difficult as time goes by.
Getting started is from scratch. If there is no one to guide you, you don’t know how many detours you will have to take. The most frightening thing is to take the wrong path and not be able to turn back.
Needless to say, the bottleneck can be called a bottleneck if it can be easily broken. If you want to break through, it is either through years of hard work like water dripping through a stone, or through the understanding of life and death.
As for wasting time, Yan Xu had some experience with this, because before he obtained the Lightning Thunder Fist, he could not see a way forward. Breaking the limitations was not something that could be done through regular training or a life-and-death battle. In this case, no matter how high your spirits and how firm your will were, you would become decadent and corrupt after a long period of wasting time, and eventually become desperate.
It’s different with the martial arts system. Although there is a limit, you can see the direction of your efforts and personally feel the progress brought by your efforts.
It's a pity that it is limited to martial arts. If the Lightning Thunder Fist was not half magic and half martial arts, it would probably not be displayed on the system. Otherwise, it would be much easier to practice.
After studying the golden finger, Yan Xu began to prepare for entering the new world, the first of which was the issue of identity.
Although the Ming world is not the modern world, we cannot just dive into it headfirst. We still need to make the necessary preparations.
According to historical records, the Ming Dynasty had a household registration and travel permit system. People like him who had no power, no land, and no house in that world were called gangsters.
Yan Xu was not brave enough to travel back to the Ming Dynasty and become a gangster, so he planned to be an outsider.
Reluctant to part with his long flowing hair that he hadn't cut for more than two years and his beard that had just grown to three inches, Yan Xu decided to become a Taoist priest.
A Taoist priest naturally cannot wear armor, so Yan Xu asked Master Jiang and Master Huo to find a way to copy the gold-thread soft armor, and also prepare an ancient pine-patterned sword for him.
This alone was not enough. In addition to going to the world of the late Qing Dynasty to learn from Uncle Jiu how to be a Taoist priest, such as performing rituals and drawing talismans, Yan Xu also made a special trip to Longhu Mountain in the modern world.
