A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and more than 20,000 guards of the Li family's merchant group, instead of withdrawing from the occupied garrison according to Zhao Fei's request, took out sharp weapons, put on sophisticated armor, and put on a posture of wanting to fight with the guards of the Zhao family's merchant group, not taking Zhao Fei's threat in their eyes at all.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Fei's expression changed slightly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately ordered loudly: "Pass my order to forcibly drive all the guards of the Li family's merchant group out of Andy City, and all those who resist will be killed!" ”

As soon as Zhao Fei's voice fell, more than 50,000 guards of the Zhao Merchant Group, who were fully armed and had already prepared to continue, did not hesitate or hesitate at all, immediately raised the sharp weapons in their hands, and under the leadership of the governors at all levels, they killed in an orderly manner in the direction of the Li Family Merchant Group's guards.

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

In the face of the attack of more than 50,000 guards of the Zhao Merchant Group, more than 20,000 guards of the Li Family Merchant Group roared loudly, waved the sharp weapons in their hands, and beckoned to the body of the guards of the Zhao Merchant Group, and the two sides started a fierce battle, the sound of metal collision, the terrible screams, and the earth-shattering shouts of killing constantly echoed in the sky.

The Li family's merchant group guards are just ordinary merchant group guards, although the weapons and equipment are better than other merchant group guards, but compared with the high-quality weapons and armor on the Zhao family's merchant group guards, they are far from the same, and they are completely at a disadvantage.

The sharp weapons in the hands of the guards of the Li family merchant group slashed fiercely on the bodies of the guards of the Zhao family merchant group, and most of them could only make a crisp sound of metal collision, stirring up a bright spark, but they could not break the armor on the guards of the Zhao family merchant group, and the sharp weapons in the hands of the guards of the Zhao family merchant group could easily cut off the sharp weapons in the hands of the guards of the Li family merchant group, break through the armor on the guards of the Li family merchant group, and kill them on the spot.

At the same time, the main purpose of the Li family merchant group escort is to protect the safety of the merchant group, most of the time is spent on escorting the merchant group trade, and the training time is extremely limited, and although the main purpose of the Zhao family merchant group escort is also to protect the safety of the merchant group, most of the time is in training, only a small part of the time is used to escort the merchant group trade activities, and the individual combat effectiveness and comprehensive combat effectiveness of the escort are higher than the Li family merchant group guards.

In terms of numbers, weapons and equipment, personal and comprehensive combat effectiveness, the guards of the Zhao merchant group far exceeded the guards of the Li family merchant group, and in addition to the fact that the Zhao merchant group has a home advantage, they can get a large number of reinforcements at any time, without the slightest scruples, therefore, the battle has achieved an overwhelming advantage in the Zhao merchant group guards from the very beginning, and constantly expands the advantage, pressing the Li family merchant group guards to fight, so that the Li family merchant group guards have suffered heavy losses, and their morale is getting lower and lower.

After all, the guards of the Li family merchant group were not an army, and after thousands of casualties, unable to see the hope of victory, and surrounded by the guards of the Zhao family's merchant group, they collapsed instantly, threw away the sharp weapons in their hands, and surrendered directly to their knees, hoping to save their lives.

Seeing that the guards of the Li family merchant group had surrendered, Zhao Fei did not hesitate or hesitate at all, and immediately accepted the surrender of the Li family merchant group guards, and asked the Zhao family merchant group guards to disarm the Li family merchant group and take them into custody on the spot.

"Young Master, the guards of the Li family merchant group will not leave Andy City, I have led the guards of the Zhao family merchant group to capture their station, and forcibly disarmed the guards of the Li family merchant group, and guarded them on the spot, waiting for the young master's disposal!" Zhao Fei, who successfully completed the task, rushed to the study where Zhao Hu was, and reported loudly with a respectful face.

"The demand for iron ore in our Andy City has increased recently, and the speed of mining on the mine is too slow, you will send all the captured Li family merchant group guards to the mine, speed up the mining speed on the mine, and mine as much iron ore as possible!" Hearing Zhao Fei's report, Zhao Hu said with a calm face.

"Yes, young master!" As soon as Zhao Hu's voice fell, Zhao Fei hurriedly responded loudly, and quickly turned around and left, galloping towards the place where the Li family's merchant group guards were.

"The Li family's merchant group guards were forcibly disarmed by our Andy City, and the imperial royal family and the three major families should use this as an excuse to attack our Andy City!" After Zhao Fei left, Zhao Hu held his chin with his hand and whispered softly.

Just as Zhao Hu imagined, after receiving the escort of the Li family's merchant group was forcibly disarmed by Andy City, and thousands of people were killed and wounded, the imperial family and the three major families were furious, and immediately through the imperial cabinet, forcibly dismissed Zhao Kun from the position of the city lord of Andy City, and demanded that the Zhao family hand over advanced gold management and alchemy techniques as compensation for the loss of the Li family's merchant group.

After forcibly removing Zhao Kun from the position of the city lord of Andy City through the Imperial Cabinet, the imperial family and the three major families issued an ultimatum to the Zhao family, allowing the Zhao family to surrender unconditionally within three days and unconditionally obey the decisions of the imperial family and the three major families, otherwise, the 200,000 elite troops of the first and second standing legions of the empire will launch a fierce attack on Andy City.

The imperial royal family and the three major families began to attack Andy City and the Zhao family, so that many foreign merchants in Andy City left the whirlpool of war in Andy City and hid in the cities near Andy City, ready to watch a good show to see who will be the final victor.

None of these businessmen who are engaged in the arms business in Andy City are not shrewd, and they are very clear about the purpose of the imperial royal family and the three major families, and they know that the imperial royal family and the three major families are interested in the advanced gold treatment and alchemy technology in the hands of the Zhao family, so they will put pressure on Andy City and the Zhao family, wanting to seize the advanced gold treatment and alchemy technology in the hands of the Zhao family.

At the same time, after four years of trading, these arms dealers know more that the Zhao family and Andy City are not easy to mess with, and in the past four years, I don't know how many greedy people have launched a provocation against the Zhao family and Andy City because of their eyes on the wealth of the Zhao family and Andy City, and were ruthlessly strangled by the Zhao family and Andy City.

From the bright side, the imperial family and the three major families occupy an absolute advantage, with the entire empire as the backing force, millions of troops to use, more sufficient material support, and extremely powerful war potential, it is completely easy to defeat Andy City and the Zhao family and win the final victory.

However, these shrewd arms merchants clearly know that although the imperial family and the three major families occupy an absolute advantage and have the entire empire as the backing, the power that can be invested in attacking Andy City and the Zhao family is not strong enough, because most of the power of the empire must be used to guard against the neighbors of the Emerald Country to maintain stability and order in various parts of the Emerald Country. It had a devastating effect on the stability and order of the borders and provinces of the empire.

Of course, the strength of the Zhao family and Andy City itself also made these shrewd weapons merchants extremely moved, 50,000 elite city guards, 50,000 Zhao clan merchant group guards, 100,000 newly recruited recruits, and an unknown number of guards with the most powerful combat effectiveness, adding up to an incomparably powerful force, definitely not weaker than the first and second legions of the empire.

Merchants are mercenary, when the situation is unclear, the best choice made by businessmen is to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, waiting for the final winner to appear, unless a businessman is a gambler, want to be small and big, otherwise, no businessman will be at this time, into the arms of a certain party.

After receiving the ultimatum of the imperial family and the three major families, the Zhao family reacted as soon as possible, refuting the ultimatum of the imperial royal family and the three major families, and loudly reprimanding the imperial family and the three major families for their greed, and actively preparing for war to prepare for a decisive battle between the imperial family and the three major families.

Seeing the actions of the Zhao family and Andy City actively preparing for war, the Emperor Long Kun immediately gave the empire the first and second legions to the standing army, marched towards Andy City, and surrounded Andy City, ready to launch a fierce attack on Andy City at any time.

Three days passed in a flash, and the 200,000 elite troops of the first and second legions of the Imperial Standing Army surrounded Andy City, and an Imperial soldier wearing Imperial standard armor and holding Imperial standard weapons, under the leadership of commanders at all levels, orderly distributed in all directions outside Andy City, posing as if they were about to attack Andy City.

At the east gate of Andy City, an old man wearing golden battle armor, accompanied by more than a dozen big men wearing the armor of imperial generals, looked in the direction of the tall city walls of Andy City, and carefully looked at the defense of Andy City.

With the support of the Zhao family's abundant financial resources, Andy City has become a new city with a population of one million, the city walls are tall and thick, very strong, and a large number of crossbow arrows, rolling stones, rolling wood, fire oil and other defensive equipment are arranged, which is very difficult to attack.

At the same time, the materials in Andy City are extremely abundant, which can fully support several years, and the first and second legions of the empire standing cannot trap Andy City to death through siege, and can only complete the orders of the imperial family and the three major families by launching a strong attack on Andy City.

"Let the army launch a wave of tentative attacks on Andy City first, and test the wall defense system of Andy City!" After carefully examining Andy City's defense system, the old man in the golden armor frowned slightly and ordered softly.

"Yes, Dashuai!" As soon as the old man in the golden armor heard his voice, more than a dozen imperial generals around him responded loudly one after another, and conveyed the old man's order, and suddenly, I saw tens of thousands of imperial soldiers, under the leadership of commanders at all levels, began to approach Andy City, and the imperial royal family and the three major families officially started a war with the Zhao family and Andy City.
