Chapter 540: Simple Goals
If Liu Tian's original thousand-mile solo ride was huge enough for half of the people of the Great Song Dynasty to see, then the beam of light that fell from the universe on the morning of April 22 could be said to be seen by half the people of the planet.
Whether it is the expanded east, the "peaceful" Middle-earth, or the eastern region of the west, they have all witnessed this "whip of God" without exception.
"What is this?"
Most of the people were at a loss, and only those who knew the inside story and had heard the rumors could immediately judge what was going on from the direction where the pillar of light fell.
"Is this the power of Attila?"
The big man who was the prime minister of the Maro Empire at the time muttered to himself, and then immediately called an emergency meeting, and there was only one agenda item at the meeting-
"If we encounter a threat from the ancient Mongolian side in the future, we must meet their demands as much as possible and resolutely not go to war!"
"Even if it's ...... Surrender?" someone asked weakly.
At that time, the Prime Minister and most of the MPs were very much in agreement.
"That's to retreat and take into account the overall situation!"
β¦β¦
Dongfang, it should be said that the Great Song Dynasty is naturally no exception, the entire high-level of the Great Song Dynasty guessed what the situation was the moment they saw this light falling, and many plans that had not yet been put into action were immediately broken, and the preparations for many days were completely in vain, casting a thick shadow on the next strategy...... Sorry, that's not the point.
"Do we still have a safe place?"
The terrifying thing is not that the other party has an attack-type holy relic, Da Song himself also has it, and at the critical moment, Xinlan may be able to take back the Wind God Sword and have another annihilation-level reverse tornado.
But the other party's attack came from the distant universe, from the Nine Heavens, and for people all over the world, it was the realm of God. Not to mention that they can't be hit, they don't even have the ability to snoop...... The most terrifying thing is that the opponent can use that attack from the sky to hit each of their cities at will - this is the most terrifying place.
Many people who had once mustered up to resist Gumeng to the end could not help but feel hopeless, and when they thought about telling the people about this state of affairs and the defeat at the front, many of them could not move at once.
Fortunately, Xinlan didn't.
"Contact Jiang Shuitian immediately and find out the actual situation as soon as possible! Also, order all cities across the country to open the enchantment to prepare for a possible attack!"
Xinlan's decisiveness and calmness are a little exciting, but only Yan Ya and Longji can know that she is actually very uneasy.
Because Jiang Shuitian is very likely to have been killed, the Tianshui area will definitely not be able to hold it, and the order just now also hides a worry-
That's the Whip of God, a perk that's enough to destroy everything even after breaking through the city's defensive barriers.
If that's the case, all their defenses are meaningless.
"I'll go there myself!"
Yan Ya couldn't sit still anymore, although she had always taken protecting and supporting Xinlan as her main task, but when something like this happened, she had more important things to do.
After communication was blocked, Xinlan quickly organized a relatively primitive way of communication - setting up a temporary post station and using manpower to transmit information.
This is a helpless move, but after half a month of adjustment, it is basically on the right track, but the speed is still not satisfactory, and the accuracy is also worrying.
Yan Ya is a very hard-working person, this is Xinlan and Liu Tian...... As many as the comments made by people who knew her, her efforts made her on the road to becoming the first intelligence officer of the Great Song Dynasty, not to mention that she had already begun to turn her side effects into advantages.
But even in the Internet era, where Xiucai can know the world's affairs without going out, after all, it is necessary to establish merit through practice.
So the time to go out has come.
"Please let me find out the news of Lord Jiang!"
For Yan Ya's request, Xinlan did not refuse, firstly, she really wanted to know Jiang Shuitian's safety as soon as possible, and secondly, it might be more dangerous to stay in Luoyang.
Yan Ya also thought of the second point, but she knew the severity very well, and knew that if the attack was really an irresistible situation, no matter how much she dodged, she would not be able to escape the fate of defeat.
Whatever you want to be successful, you have to be aggressive!
β¦β¦
It's just that, as Xinlan and others guessed, Wuwei City was broken and destroyed by the "Whip of God" in one fell swoop after the defensive barrier of maximum power was fully deployed.
It's just that there is an enchantment as a buffer, and those who have reached a certain level of strength and stayed in a solid military facility survived.
Of course, Jiang Shuitian is not a person hiding in a military facility, but he can't be called in a good situation, because of the particularity of his skills, at the moment when the pillar of light fell, he tried to divert the power of this destructive attack, but unfortunately, he failed, maybe he saved the soldiers around him, but the city was destroyed, and he also fell down, unconscious.
And the emergency healers have also been reduced to ashes in the devastating blow.
"Send Jiang-sama...... Go back ......."
One of the seriously injured guards fell to the ground and died after saying this, even if Jiang Shuitian tried his best to protect the people around him, it didn't mean that they would definitely survive.
The same thing happened many times in the ruins of Wuwei, and those who survived were soon killed by the magical damage with the corrosive effect.
Counting some of the workers and civilians left behind, more than 100,000 people died in an instant, and the rest were less than 3,000, and all of them were wounded.
There is nothing to be left to chance, after this devastating blow, it is time for the army of the 36th of the Western Regions to come and harvest.
It should have been like thisβ
Just when the Western Regions army was attacking Wuwei with the sound of killing, they were attacked by the enemy behind their backs, and they were quickly defeated, and even two generals were attacked.
"Why? Aren't you afraid to see such a scene?" some of the generals of the Western Regions Army couldn't help but shout as they retreated in embarrassment.
"Even if we die tomorrow, at least before then, I can kill all of you and pull a group of people on their backs!"
This is naturally Liu Tian, who has been wandering around to attack, the reason why he can come so fast is naturally because he shares a thousand miles to walk alone (leap version), but after the map becomes a hundred times, the range he can fly over has become limited, but he can still do it when he rushes here to attack the Western Regions Army that thinks he has the chance to win.
The Western Regions Army, as the weakest but not negligible force within Gumeng, was defeated very quickly, but it didn't take long for them to organize their troops again, which was the experience that Liu Tian had summed up in fighting them these days.
However, before they make a comeback, Wuwei's wounded have enough time to evacuate, but the problem is-
"Lord Liu Tian, aren't you going back with us?"
Jiang Shuitian's adjutant was shocked when he heard Liu Tian's decision. Since he had stayed in the command center before, and now he was the best person in Wuwei City, Liu Tian asked him to lead the team.
"Yes, I won't go back, but don't worry, I will only keep a thousand people, and the other soldiers will escort you. β
"It's not a problem, now that Wuwei City has been destroyed, Lord Jiang Shuitian is seriously injured and can't wake up, and you need to go back to preside over the overall situation, even if you don't mention this, only take a thousand people to stay outside, it's too dangerous. β
"You guys are really spoiled...... Liu Tian sighed, straightened his face, and shouted: "This is an order, give me to execute it immediately!"
The ability of the official position was thus expanded, and the adjutant felt the strong binding force from the system even if he was unwilling.
"Please tell us where we are going, and we will send support immediately. β
"The support is free, you still have to think about how to keep Tianshui, as for my whereabouts-"
Liu Tian looked to the west.
"It's very simple, just kill Attila!"
