Chapter 1140: Forced to Help
In Li Ran's view, the unity and principle of this race is the key to their ability to thrive in all planes, the first point is needless to say, every barbarian group is relatively united, this is a well-known thing, even if you usually fight to the death within the clan, but once external, they will rest assured that they will hand over their backs to each other, even if it is an opponent who is still fighting at the last moment, which can not be done by any other race.

Although sometimes, it may be because of their wisdom and vision that their unity seems to be somewhat limited, and there will be constant wars between various ethnic groups, but this does not affect their pace of development and growth.
As for the principle, it is due to their traditions, except for a few perverse and sinister races, most of them focus on commitment to keep the covenant, as long as the covenant with them is reached, although some wise lords will also find some favorable conditions for themselves, they rarely repent, let alone do things that are as harmful as humans and hellish devils.
Although because of this principle, barbarian forces sometimes inevitably suffer some deception and betrayal when cooperating with others, but it verifies a common saying of the Chinese, honest people cannot suffer big losses, so they continue to reproduce in all planes.
However, Li Ran will not despise this, and even look down on these races that seem to be a little strong, but attaches great importance to them, because he knows that it is such a race that does not seem to be connected with wisdom, but sometimes it often gives birth to real wise men, if you are careful, you can find this from various general history rumors, and there have been several key moments in history, it is because of the existence of barbarian wise men that have played an important role.
It is precisely because of this that Li Ran is more at ease with them, he believes that with the nature of these guys, they will not resist their allies for no reason, and their habits make them never let go of any opportunity as long as they have a chance.
Besides, for Li Ran, coming over this time was originally a matter of agreement between the two of them, and he couldn't let him take the risk alone now, these guys had to pay more if they wanted to obtain greater benefits.
Moreover, according to Li Ran's assumptions, to achieve his planned goals, it is indeed necessary to force Cruyard and others to take the initiative to express their positions, at least with the troops and determination they are now investing, it is not enough to complete the goals he has set.
In addition, there is another point, that is, Li Ran's attitude in waiting for Delevis and Blinkev, the former is the most powerful force here except for the capital, plus a mysterious Duke Brinchev, the new and old kings here let them guard the northern wilderness and beware of the Naotia Empire, which shows that their cooperation will never be as simple as one plus one equals two, and Li Ran really does not dare to act rashly before figuring out their strength and dynamics.
And on the side of the Cruyard Empire, sure enough, after seeing Li Ran's side, only a regiment of air cavalry was sent over a few days later, and the meaning of the words was that the soldiers on their side were overwhelmed by the continuous battle and could not rush over, after the Krach side faced the arrival of King Rolf's army, in addition to being fully alert, the other three dukes of the Cruyard Empire also spoke at the same time, and after publicly expressing their dissatisfaction, Duke Miuqi directly led the army into Grenada to join the former.
Everyone knew in their hearts that this Duke of Miwuqi could enter Grenada in just two or three days, and he must have been prepared before, but now it was the Grenada Empire that took the lead in starting the national war, so no one could say anything, so they could only helplessly watch as the Third Duke of Cruyard completed the assembly, coupled with the follow-up of a group of lords, the strength of the army directly increased to nearly 700,000.
And in the face of the sudden arrival of the army of Duke Miwuchi, perhaps the king of Rolf also knew very well that after two major defeats, they could no longer afford any defeat at the moment, so they became more cautious, and after leading the army to arrive, they did not rush to fight with it, but chose to join Rorsena and Irro first.
In this way, the Grenada Empire and the Cruyard Empire, the two sides formed a confrontation in the eastern region, and Li Ran was still in Huolu City at the moment, so in the following days, the Grenada Empire, which was in flames before, seemed to settle down.
But just when everyone thought that this situation would last for a while, Li Ran suddenly chose to send troops to support Cruyard after some thought.
Maybe Li Ran's decision was a bit sudden, and even some teammates didn't understand it when everyone felt caught off guard.
According to their ideas, Li Randing's plan was already very good before, after the continuous battles in the early stage, they are now here to recuperate, and when the two sides are inseparable, their side will become more active.
At that time, whether it is to take the initiative to attack the surrounding cities, obtain greater benefits when the transportation channels have been established, or immediately enter the hinterland of the empire and completely solve this so-called large empire, including acting at the opportune opportunity, or even rushing to flank the coalition forces in Grenada in one fell swoop, the initiative is completely in their own hands, and there is no need to participate in the battle so early.
And if they send troops now, in addition to making themselves deep in the eastern battlefield, in the case of no result, they will make more enemies of this Grenada, and attract more hatred, they really don't know that there is any benefit on their side, not to mention that the expedition to the eastern region itself is a dangerous thing when the back road is not paved.
It wasn't until this night, after they had sorted out the ordnance materials for two days in worry and made all the preparations for the expedition, that Li Ran found them and explained the reason for the last resort.
"Brother Ran, do you mean that you are afraid that they will not be able to fight, and then turn their target to us?" At this time, after listening to what Li Ran said, Zhang Juan first asked.
Looking at the thoughtful crowd, Li Ran nodded and said: "I originally thought that after King Rolf passed over this time, he would definitely think about solving the crisis over there as soon as possible, as long as someone died in the battle, with the character of Krachi and their barbarians, they would definitely fight to the death, but what I didn't expect was that the other three dukes of the Kruyad Empire would choose to speak at the same time at this time, including the capital city sent troops over, and Miwuqi led the troops to come so quickly, in the case that both sides had scruples, I'm afraid this war won't be fought for a long time"
Hearing this, Shadow Blade also nodded and said: "I understand, now both sides have scruples and dare not fight, and for the Grenada side, they should be very clear now, this invasion is our cooperation with Cruyard, in fact, no matter which side it is, as long as they defeat one, the other will naturally retreat."
With a sigh of gratitude, Li Ran said to the shadow blade: "You are right, now because of the intervention of the capital on the Kruyard side, and the simultaneous voices of the other three dukes, including the convergence of the Miuqi army, this king does not dare to start a war, and if he wants to open the stalemate, he can't always drag it on like this, so it is very likely that we will enter his sight, if the Delevis side comes again at this time, we are really in danger, in this case, we must act quickly and let the other side fight first."
Hearing Li Ran say this, everyone couldn't help but take a long breath, and then Li Ran also said: "It is precisely for this reason that we not only have to go this time, but also rush there as soon as possible, but this time we don't need to send the whole army, after all, the main thing over there is still to be Krach and them."
Everyone also nodded at this, and then after some discussion, Li Ran decided to send a fast army of 150,000 people this time, commanded by him, Tang Shi, Shadow Blade and others, and handed it over to Xia Houben and Zhou Xun and others.
So in this case, early the next morning, Li Ran began to act, as for the 150,000 people who went out on the expedition, after discussion, in addition to the more than 10,000 air legions, most of them were cavalry legions, and they drove from Huolu City to the eastern region.
Like a calm oil pot, a drop of water suddenly dripped in, and the Grenada Empire, which had been calm for a few days at this time, immediately became boiling because of the expedition of more than 100,000 people.
As for the Prince of Terrys, who only sent out a hundred thousand people, he wanted to rush to support Cruyard, at first some of the noble lords here were still a little unconvinced, after all, they had been a little depressed about the two defeats of the Imperial Alliance, and at this time, under the leadership of some self-esteemed big lords, they stood up one after another, trying to kill this invader who had fallen in the southern region through encirclement and suppression, and become heroes of the Empire.
But after only two battles, the defeat of thirteen lords above the earl, including three marquises, immediately made the remaining people much more honest, and the tragic death of nearly half of the nobles made them appreciate the ruthlessness of this Prince of Terrys in the war, and also made them understand the reason why the entire southern region could be lost.
What is worrying is that after these two battles, in the eyes of everyone, Prince Terres, who seems to have been angered by this provocation, has become ferocious again, almost all the cities along the way have been sacked, and the flames of war have instantly burned in the eastern region.
At noon that day, between a plain, Li Ran led a large army up slowly, and in front of them was the Grenada coalition army like a line of mountains and seas.
After about ten minutes, Li Ran waved his hand to stop the movement of the army, and set his eyes on the man in Chinese clothes who was about to enter old age.
