Chapter 878
878 Borrowing troops, abnormal teleportation _1
Tang Zhen’s return to his original world this time was to borrow troops!
According to his plan, he would need to invest at least 200000 combatants to form an overwhelming advantage in this battle with the vestigial tribe at sea.
However, in this case, transportation and fire suppression would become a big problem. Just relying on the floating metal Island would no longer be able to meet Tang Zhen’s requirements.
Therefore, the warship that was listed as a backup choice due to operational problems had become Tang Zhen’s best choice.
However, to their partners in the original world, the importance of warships was beyond doubt. No matter how close the cooperation between the two sides was, they could not easily hand over a large number of warships to Tang Zhen.
Of course, if they could transfer a few small warships to support them, it would not be a problem!
However, this kind of warship was not suitable for combat in the water world because the cannonballs and missiles could not fly far there. Therefore, even if these warships were handed over to Tang Zhen, they must be modified.
If this was the case, it would be even more troublesome. It was better for Tang Zhen to think of a way to get a warship himself. After that, his partner would send professional naval personnel to operate it!
Of course, if they were willing to give it to him, Tang Zhen would not reject it.
This was an employment-type transaction. Tang Zhen must also pay a certain price for this.
Tang Zhen didn’t care about the money. Moreover, his business partners wouldn’t ask for money. At most, they would fight for more favorable conditions for themselves in terms of cooperation!
After all, the expansion of their business partners in the loucheng world could not be done without an important figure like Tang Zhen. They would not be too excessive.
Perhaps increasing the number of teleportation personnel was the condition they were going to propose!
The discussion process didn’t waste too much time. After Zhen Tang communicated with director Tang, Smith, and several others through the holographic communication device, they quickly received a reply.
This time, the five major cooperation partners would jointly send professional naval personnel in charge of operating the warship to assist the Holy Dragon City in battle.
In addition to these Navy soldiers, the partner would also give away a batch of small warships for free and help complete the modification to adapt to the special circumstances of the water world.
As for the modified weapons and ammunition, they were also free of charge. The service was absolutely on point!
There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. After Tang Zhen’s request was satisfied, the next thing to do was to discuss the price he had to pay.
The matter was indeed as Tang Zhen had expected. The only request of the business partner was to open up another 100000 combat personnel quota and be responsible for transporting the logistics supplies on a regular basis.
Although Tang Zhen had already guessed the other party’s request, he still revealed a difficult expression.
Currently, the number of combatants from the original world who were permanently stationed in the world of loucheng had exceeded 500000. It had long reached the agreed limit.
Therefore, Tang Zhen no longer allowed his partners to increase the number of troops to prevent unnecessary hidden dangers and burdens.
At least, before the Holy Dragon City was upgraded to a national-level city, Tang Zhen would not allow the number of soldiers in his original world to exceed one million. This was not because he was afraid of being schemed against, but because the pressure on the logistics was too great.
With so many troops, the amount of resources consumed would be extremely terrifying. Before the material transmission experiment was successful, Tang Zhen could only be in charge of transporting between the two worlds.
As the Holy Dragon city’s city Lord, there were many things that Tang Zhen needed to deal with. He simply didn’t have much free time to transport supplies for the Army. If that was the case, would he be able to do anything?
As such, he had never given in to the idea of increasing the number of troops, and his partners had no choice.
However, because the dog-headed people’s city had been completely occupied, the division of land had also been completed. Next, the partner would carry out further actions.
However, in this case, there would be a huge shortage of combat and logistics personnel.
Although this problem was slightly alleviated by the use of the soul teleportation cabin, there were too many restrictions on this temporary teleportation, and it was far less convenient than directly teleporting.
Furthermore, the interplanar soul teleportation portal’s coverage was limited. If they were too far away from Holy Dragon City, even the soul teleportation cabin could not be used normally!
Hence, the final solution was to send more troops.
Taking advantage of Tang Zhen’s opportunity to borrow troops, the partner took the opportunity to put forward this condition. Because he was afraid that Tang Zhen would refuse, the conditions were also very favorable.
As a result, Tang Zhen could no longer refuse and agreed to the other party’s request for more troops. However, the materials and expenses required to create the host body would have to be provided by the partner.
After all, this was not a small expense. Tang Zhen was not willing to do a losing business!
With regards to Tang Zhen’s request, the business partner simply had no reason to refuse. Therefore, he very happily agreed.
However, these more than 100000 host bodies were not easy to take out. They had to be manufactured and cultivated step by step.
Fortunately, the host body manufacturing base built by Holy Dragon City and their original World Partners had never stopped operating since its completion. It was barely possible to provide half of the host bodies for the time being.
After the cooperation was reached, both sides got busy.
After the meeting was over, the people in charge of the five business partners began to prepare the small warship to be handed over to Tang Zhen. They quickly mobilized the construction personnel and modified it according to the requirements.
At the same time, a group of experienced naval combatants were also recruited for training, and the newly deployed soldiers were teleported into the tower world!
After Tang Zhen had arranged the main tasks, he returned to Holy Dragon City and entered his secret cultivation room.
……
Although the partner provided a batch of ships for Tang Zhen’s use, it still did not meet Tang Zhen’s expected standards.
Although those small warships had good mobility, they were limited in number. When facing large sea monsters, they would no longer have the advantage in size.
Therefore, getting a batch of large warships had become something that Tang Zhen had to do!
The wasteland that he had discovered must have a large number of abandoned warships. After some repairs, they should be able to meet Tang Zhen’s needs.
Therefore, he had to go to the wasteland world again!
Tang Zhen shifted his gaze to the mysterious star on the interface of his phone and selected the single person teleportation function.
Soon, a teleportation gate appeared, and Tang Zhen stepped into it.
However, the moment he entered the teleportation gate, Tang Zhen’s brows suddenly furrowed. This was because he realized that something was wrong.
It was as if a repulsive force was pushing him out, preventing him from being transported to the wasteland world.
At the same time, the destination was no longer in front of the teleportation gate. Instead, a huge ring appeared out of thin air. Countless tentacles extended from it, and they were constantly spinning and twisting in the dark void.
Upon closer inspection, one would discover that this indescribable huge ring seemed to contain countless three-dimensional images, like scenes from a movie, but it felt extremely real!
Just as Tang Zhen’s gaze landed on it, that repulsive force appeared once again, as though it wanted to push him far away.
“What’s going on?”
Tang Zhen’s heart shook. He began to retreat without the slightest hesitation and prepared to leave the teleportation gate.
However, at this moment, the mysterious star in Tang Zhen’s phone began to flash continuously as if it would collapse at any moment.
At the same time, an even more powerful teleportation power appeared from the teleportation gate. It wrapped around his body and pushed him into the ring.
Tang Zhen was actually unable to resist against this kind of power. He crashed into the strange-looking huge ring!
