At the gate of Phoenix City, a large army, two-thirds of which was skeletons, was stationed at the gate under the leadership of those horseback knights, waiting, waiting for the arrival of that person. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The leading knight walked forward for a while, and saw the black-haired man who was riding a pony not far away, who immediately got off his horse, knelt down on one knee, and gave a knightly salute.

''Philip, the knight of Tibetan Soldier City, see Lord Li Xiaopan. ‘’

''Philip, get up, you've been working hard all this time.'' ''I saw Philip and immediately trotted over to pick him up.

''My lord, I have failed to keep you safe, I have betrayed your trust, I have not defended my duty as a knight, and I deserve punishment. Philip's expression was a little guilty, but it was still as serious as ever.

''Don't talk about punishment or anything. I shook my head and sighed: "This is also my own problem, I was not well prepared and did not plan in detail. I relied so much on the system that I thought that with the system, I would not be afraid of all disasters. The facts taught me a lesson, and it taught me a very good lesson, and I learned a lot. I sighed for a moment and shook Philip's hand.

''It's not your fault, don't say punishment, you have done so much to protect me, to save me, to hide the army city, what can I punish?'' I told him.

''That is my duty, my obligation, not a reason to excuse. Philip once again regained his solemn face: "I will resign from my post as commander of the legion, and the rest of the punishment will be up to you." ‘’

''Okay. ''I was relieved to see him back to his original state.

''Then punish you to protect me in the future, and you are not allowed to travel to the pool again.'' In addition, the army cannot do without a commander, and the troops cannot be left without training. Remove you from office, and continue to hold office, so be it. I said with a smile.

''Yes.'' He was stunned for a moment, but accepted the order anyway.

''It seems that we have a lot of new people, how can there be so many?'' I looked at the troops behind Philip, and everyone saluted me in unison. However, I noticed that Philip was followed by five knights, and three of them were new faces, and I didn't think that Meron could summon knights, and I remember summoning other knights. And what makes me even more strange is the attributes and presentation of these knights.

[Unhonored Knight: LV1; Health: 600 (+30); Attack: 40-68 (+3); Armor: 4; Speed: Medium; Skill: (Locked) Target: Ground; Quantity: 1; Cost: 3; Evaluation: A knight who has not yet been awarded, although his level is good, but he still lacks a title. 】

The name is the undecorated knight, but the attributes are a little higher than the average knight, but there is another parenthesis that makes me very puzzled. And beside the knights, there were some young men, who were also yellow-haired, but without beards, carrying the knights' spears and other weapons, and wearing swords at their waists.

''Your Excellency, do you remember the last order you gave to the builders before you left the Hidden Soldier City?'' This is the result of our new construction. Philip smiled and spoke a little like Merlon, but his words made me realize.

That's right! I did ask the builders to build the Knights' Hall before I supported Fang Zi. At that time, I just had spare money, ordered the construction of the knight's hall, and ran away, and a month's imprisonment had already made me forget about this, it seems that I haven't seen it for a month, and the hall has not only been built, but also achieved great results!

My alliance took a look at the attributes of those knights around them, and the result was exactly what I expected.

[Knight Squire: LV1; Health: 300; Attack: 30-45; Armor: 2.5; Middle; Target: Ground; Skills: Squire Advancement: Combat and regular training will allow squires to accumulate experience and level up, and squires who have reached the third level can get advanced qualifications and become a glorious knight; Comment: The Knight Squire sounds like a worker, but it is. The squires served their knights, took care of the knights' daily affairs like servants, and had to carry the knights' weapons to the battlefield. However, it is indeed a kind of exercise, and only those who have practiced well have the opportunity to become true knights. And the attendants, too, expect the day when they grow a beautiful beard. 】

''Excellent!'' Very good! I complimented, looked at the knights and squires, and nodded in satisfaction.

''When you return to the Tibetan Soldier City and have a formal award ceremony, they will officially become a knight.'' As knights who are directly awarded in this world, their strength will be five percent higher than that of normal level 1 knights. Philip nodded, a rare look of pride. Because these undecorated knights in front of him had been his squires before, and now they had become knights, Philip was happy in his heart.

''May I be born and die for adults!'' ''Three trusted knights saluted me solemnly and swore allegiance to me.

''Very good, Philip, let the troops rest for a while, you and a few other knights will come into the city with me, and we will discuss with Fang Zi about dealing with the legions.'' I nodded, and led the commanders of these troops to Fangzi's base camp again.

We talked a lot with Fang Zi, but this time it was all about strategy and war. I still had the sister of Avelia listening, and I told her that we didn't want war, but we didn't want to be annexed by the Legion either, and I wanted her sister to help us. After all, she knew a lot of legions, such as those small tank-like ironclad chariots, and those magic catapults when they attacked Phoenix City. While we can handle those things, giants can just smash them to pieces or overturn them. But with these, there may be some other strange things, after all, when the legion went south, it could bring a lot of advanced heavy equipment from the kingdom. Although we have broken and thrown a lot, we will still be unlucky if a powerful weapon comes out.

Avellia thought about it for a moment and told us anyway. She said that the chariot was modeled after the "Crystal Chariot" and the "Ebaron Chariot" of the Subic Kingdom, and it was very protective and equipped with the ability to attack with magic guides, which could inflict terrible damage on gathered enemy troops and weak walls, and was the weapon that the Kuba Legion was most proud of. However, although the Legion still retains a dozen of these "Ebaron Chariots", the Legion has not collected enough "Magic Crystals" to power the vehicles. The few that can be used have also been overhauled several times, and the more they are changed, the worse they are, and the magic guide generator has also been removed, so I have no choice but to install crossbow arrows. As for those magic sprebuchets, although they don't burn magic crystals, each one needs two apprentice magicians to constantly recharge, otherwise the power will be greatly reduced. And this kind of catapult was knocked out by Fang Zi, and after two were knocked out, there were only six left. The Legion does have a lot of powerful heavy weapons, but by now, there aren't many of them that can be used. As for the strength of the legion, according to my sister's words, it is more troublesome than we thought. Because there is no distinction between the military and the people, although so many have been defeated, the legion still has more than 20,000 troops, food to sustain the army for two months, and the legion now has at least five combat masters! There are at least forty high-ranking fighters!

I was amazed at the number of battle masters, but Avellia told me that such a large group of powerful men was somehow blessed for me. Because the holy water and ransom holy water I provided were conducive to the peak of high-level warriors to break through the bottleneck, the legion burned the holy water and burned three battle masters in a month! Even Kuba's bizarre breakthrough has a lot to do with holy water. And what makes me smile the most is that the legion forcibly changed the energy devices of several "Ebaron Chariots", so that these iron bumps can drive the magic crystal array to run by activating holy water, so as to start the chariot. This made me smile bitterly, I never thought that holy water could be so "wasted"! That's money! Moreover, the chariot consumes a lot of holy water, and the legion is really speechless to do this.

However, I also came to a good conclusion from this, the Legion now has insufficient strategic material reserves, and even the idea of a loser who consumes a lot of holy water to drive chariots can come up with it, which shows that the Legion is often stubble, and the resource reserves are seriously insufficient.

We learned a lot about the Legion, and Fang Zi and I were more confident in dealing with them. Fang Zi was in a good mood, and she also took us to see her newly built exclusive building --- and the "gunpowder workshop" and "gunpowder weapons workshop". The former can provide Fang Zi with the gunpowder needed for the musketeer and artillery and support the latter, while the latter produces mobile cannons and some guns sold in stores.

We walked through the workshop full of gunpowder, and saw the workers processing saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal into a reasonable ratio of black powder and refining it, and we also saw the dwarf craftsmen processing the base of the cannon. I saw the gnomes testing new arquebuses at the range, and I saw the "musketeers" who practiced their guns (in fact, the locals and militia who picked up the arquebuses). Fang Zi also took me to see how the skeleton turned into a bomberman, thanks to Fang Zi's exclusive building: "Bomb Cemetery".

Fang Zi told me that her host is exclusive to "heavy fire support", so the store has opened a lot of powerful and vicious toys for her to use, and unlike me, Fang Zi has more benefits in spells and soldier equipment than soldiers, and she can also buy musketeers in bulk, and the price is only 1000 gold coins, which is very conscientious. And contrary to my thoughts, Fang Zi recruited some hot-blooded young people from bikinis to join his army, and bought arquebuses from the store to arm them with not much muskets, I don't know if this is a loophole in the system, but it is indeed feasible.

Fang Zi also has a very powerful host skill, throwing a fireball with double power, it takes a day to cool down, but it is powerful, the range is also wide, and the lethality is full.
