"It's not a good feeling to be betrayed by your kind, and I understand the anger in your hearts at this moment. The reason why I don't kill you is because I don't want the glory of the Martyrs to be stained. I'll give you a minute to think about it! …… Whether to take revenge on the despicable traitor, or to die immediately. ”

Yang Jiangong looked at Aska with a playful eye. At this time, controlling the overall situation of the battlefield made him feel full of confidence. Ibek's betrayal was not so much the result of his inducements as the result of the other party's naturally despicable character.

People who are born with a despicable personality not only don't like Yang Jiangong, but no one will like them. The reason why Ibek, who has a gloomy personality, chose to hold on to the Steel City instead of choosing to defect is nothing more than to sit on the ground and negotiate a big deal with Yang Jiangong.

And Yang Jiangong is not a fool, he doesn't mind putting this despicable Elder Ibek together, I believe that with the help of another Askar, a person who is familiar with the underground world, it will not be difficult to break through this steel city.

"Human, your fighting spirit has earned my respect. As long as you allow me to take revenge on a traitor, we are willing to surrender and join your side! Redeem your glory with blood and loyalty! ”

Askar is proud, but ultimately unwilling to accept a worthless death. He's straightforward, but that doesn't mean he's an idiot who doesn't think. There is an old saying in China, it is better to die than to live. Faced with the choice between life and death, the scales in anyone's heart will only tilt towards the side of life.

Seeing the patriarch Askar kneeling on one knee, Elder Rayburn wanted to say something, but when he saw that he wanted to speak, he finally looked at the few warriors around him, and he reluctantly lowered his proud head. Like Patriarch Ascar, Ray Byrne chose to bend his knees and surrender......

The bowing of the two leaders of the Martyrs gave Yang Jiangong a special look in his eyes, and he directly conquered a race on the battlefield. This is the highest expression of the will to conquer, and it is also the ultimate goal of Yang Jiangong's conquest of the entire underground world, a race that has been declining. With a sonorous sound, Yang Jiangong pulled out his short sword, and then strode up to the two Flame Clan leaders, pressing the cold sword body against their necks, and even cutting each other's skin.

Kill, or accept the other party's surrender and allegiance! At this moment, it is all in the hands of Yang Jiangong alone. And this is the thrill of conquest. The life and death of the creatures under your feet are only in your own thoughts.

When they saw that their patriarch was facing the threat of death, the fierce warriors who were surrounding them wanted to attack, but unfortunately they had already collected their weapons, and there were Achilles and the knights who were staring at them with vicious eyes, and these fierce warriors who had survived the war did not dare to make any moves in the end.

Patriarch Askar and Elder Rayburn bow their heads and accept their fate. This made Yang Jiangong show a more satisfied look. As the saying goes, those who know the times are handsome, if they just blindly seek death. Then he didn't mind cutting the throat of the stubborn at all, "Who said that the Martyrs are a stubborn race that would rather die in battle than surrender!" The weak will eventually choose to cling to the strong, and the scene in front of him once again proves the law of conquest in Yang Jiangong's heart.

"Me. King Lol Cardin - accept your allegiance! As long as you offer loyalty and glory, I am by no means a stingy lord. I will now grant you both the position of Archon of the Underground City. The underworld is still the stronghold of the Fire Clan! The premise is - you must conquer this city of steel! ”

To the point where it has come to this. Yang Jiangong naturally knows how much sincerity the two people have. This caused him to finally relax the dagger in his hand and tap twice on the shoulders of Askar and Rayburn, respectively.

"Your Majesty, if you will allow it. Order the capture of the Steel City now. Despicable Ibek, who wants to take over the city, won't be as easy as he thinks. I know a secret way, and now is the time to punish the vile! I swear to wipe out with blood those who bring shame to the entire Martyrs. ”

When Askar said this, his eyes flashed with a scorching fire of revenge. The most intolerable thing for the fierce patriarch of the fierce clan is the betrayal from his own clan.

……………………………………………………………………

When Elder Ibek ordered the Iron Castle to be guarded, he may have been basking in the joy of self-esteem with his guards! Executing the recalcitrant in the castle, Ibek smashed himself and sat down in the main hall.

But when he climbed back up to the castle, Ibek couldn't laugh anymore.

There was no longer a scene on the battlefield, and in Ibek's eyes, there were only dense fishmen who could not see the edge. And a huge whale bone rising from the underground river, as well as a dense bone ladder!

"He didn't even propose to negotiate with me—"

The situation on the battlefield in front of him is a little different from what Ibek expected, but it is better to let the other party know the indestructibility of the steel castle first, so that he can have more bargaining chips in the next negotiations.

Ibeck believed that as long as he guarded the city gate and the small section of the city wall, even if he couldn't talk, he could force the other party to exit the underground world and disappear from his sight. Ibek has this confidence!

The reason why the steel castle is impregnable is that in addition to the eight hundred fierce warriors on the city walls and thousands of Fire Clan strongmen, it also has a large number of arrow towers, and more powerful torsion spring ballistas!

As early as the last era, the once glorious Fire Clan faced the threat of great force. Created many powerful weapons of war!

In the beginning, a weapon that eclipsed all other powers was born - the goblin craftsmen designed and built the first torsion spring ballista in the history of warfare!

The Goblin design ballista has a sturdy bracket on which the main beam rests and two torsion spring sets on either side of the front end.

Each spring set drives a crossbow arm, the end of which is connected to a bowstring, in the center of which is a braided mesh bag to hold the projectile.

The upper side of the beam has a long dovetail groove, a slide with a long guide rail can slide back and forth along the long groove, and the rear end of the slider is equipped with a set of ingenious firing mechanism. The bowstring can be easily locked and released, the end of the beam is equipped with a winch, and the user can move the slider by pulling the handle or dragging the rope.

When the bowstring is pulled back and fixed by the firing mechanism, the weapon is in a state of readiness. In order to make the operation of the winch not too laborious, metal racks are arranged on both sides of the beam, so that the work of opening the bow does not have to be done in one go. It can also adjust the projectile power of the weapon to obtain the required range.

This torsion spring ballista is both powerful and long-ranged! It can be described as a very powerful defensive weapon!

Ibek didn't believe that with just 30,000 fishmen and a few bones, he could break through the steel castle that the Fire Clan was proud of.

When Ibeck watched the fish-men under the walls in vain, bursting with blood mist and corpses. Led by Aska and Rayburn, a team is entering the interior of the Steel Castle through a sordid secret passageway.

It was said to be a secret passage, but I didn't know until I came to know that it was just a narrow sewer used to discharge sewage. Only one person can be allowed to pass through at a time, and the secret passage is full of!

Sius, and many more of his men. He kept cursing in his mouth. When the stool is smeared all over the cheeks, the nose is filled with the smell of nausea and nausea. Anyone can get annoyed!

But for the sake of the overall situation, Yang Jiangong still endured it, although his annoyance was no less than that of others. Reaching out to pinch the maggots that were crawling on his face, he chose to be silent.

The narrow passage can only accommodate one person at a time, and it will take at least less than an hour for thousands of combat units to crawl through this hidden 'sewer'.

And it was in this short period of time, in order to attract the attention of the castle interior. The Fish-Man Warband has already lost more than 5,000 people under the city walls. Leaving behind 5,000 corpses, the Fish-Man Water Pirates had retreated to the underground river, where they were silent.

At the cost of five thousand fishmen, the deputy head of the octopus fulfilled his promise. Gain time for the sneak attack!

At the other end of the passage, there is a facility similar to a public toilet. After an hour of swimming in the stinking sewers, the filth was unbearable. According to the two dwarven patriarchs, this was the outside of the council chamber. Askar gestured a dozen. Two thousand combat units, immediately put martial law and occupied this core area.

"Kill—"

The moment the battle began, everyone's heads 'buzzed'. Immediately, his eyes widened, his eyebrows raised one by one, and his face burst into green tendons, staring at the enemy angrily. It seems that there is an enmity against the sky!

That's it, war seems to be the most inspiring form of hatred, even in the face of one's own kind.

Angry shouts rang out, and the rebels in the chaos fell to the battlefield one by one, their screams endless. The smoke of gunpowder accompanied by the smell of blood irritated everyone's nasal passages.

Askar rushed forward, in an accidental split.

Yang Jiangong's powerful sword directly pierced the head of Lei Bourn in front of him. He collapsed on the blood-soaked steps, his fingers clenched into fists as if they were about to grasp the lost life......

The arms gradually drooped, and the fingers gradually relaxed. Cutting off this difficult Ray Byrne can save a lot of trouble in the future.

If the first half of the war was a contest of courage and glory, then the second half of the war was a tragic slaughter.

Yang Jiangong had quietly ordered to kill as many other males as possible, including young children and the elderly, all of whom could not escape a large net of hunting. As the rulers of the Fire Clan, it's not a bad thing for the Spirits to reduce their numbers to the point where they don't threaten.

"Kill - kill all the despicable!"

Because he was full of hatred for Ibek, the hatred in the heart of the patriarch Askar could not be vented, and his angry roar was equivalent to pronouncing the death sentence of the martyrs in the city who took up arms and did not know whether to resist or surrender.

The sharp whistling sound was followed by an overwhelming shouting of killing. Fragments of iron from broken weapons, blood, and even human stumps flew in the air, and cries, shouts, and cries for help were endless.

In a fit of rage, Askar cut off Ibek's head with his own hands.

To the eyes of onlookers, there were only two colors left of the entire steel city, the gray-black splashing everywhere and the dazzling bright red mixed in with it.

I don't know who gave a shocking order. The steel castle opened its gates to both sides, and tens of thousands of fish-man pirates poured into the castle like dense ants.

At this point, the mission of conquering the underworld is finally complete. The kingdom of Lol Cardin finally has this underground territory.

After continuous marching battles, Yang Jiangong, including all the soldiers, had an urgency to return to the surface.

Four thousand young men, and two thousand crossbowmen, only three thousand, yes, only three thousand, returned triumphantly. War is so cruel, even for the victors.

Quietly put away the crystal ball of dark knowledge. Once again, he accepted the renewed oath of allegiance from the patriarch Askar, and Yang Jiangong made him a commander of a thousand and an archon of the Iron Castle.

The underworld and the Iron Castle are still the territory of the Fire Clan, and everything inside is also in the hands of Askar. Including the fishman and the thief group's request to establish a riverbank base in the underground world, Yang Jiangong also agreed.

Now that the goal of conquest has been achieved, the Iron City is about to become a production base for the weapons and equipment of the kingdom and the Fish-Man Water Pirates.

This war attrition of the youth army, but it honed every soldier.

At present, Yang Jiangong not only expanded these 3,000 people to the Black Mountain Gang on the front line, but also re-recruited the youth army. And this requires a lot of logistical support. He personally designed the drawings of the ring weapon armor and put it into the hands of Askar.

Although the martyrs had been washed by blood, there were less than two hundred of the thousands of martyrs left, and the clan population had been greatly reduced.

But the 20,000 Fire Clan people living in the City of Steel were unharmed, and it was not difficult to create thousands of weapons and armor in a few days. It is enough for Askar to be in charge of the inspection and supervision.

Today, Yang Jiangong is not at all worried that Aska will rebel and start a rebellion. This is the real reason why he secretly ordered Achilles and Sius to kill all the adult males of the Lie Clan.

The tiger whose teeth and claws have been pulled out is not a threat to the kingdom of Lol Cardan.

"Xiaogong, you're back!"

Seeing Yang Jiangong return safely, Duan Xiaorou's heart bloomed, and happy joy flew on the pair of cute eyebrows. She ran over from a distance, plunged into Yang Jiangong's arms, buried her face deep in his arms, and breathed in the special and familiar smell of the other party.

"Xiaorou, did you miss me. I...... Missed you so much. ”

Yang Jiangong smiled and stroked her hair, from the top of her head to the ends of her waist. Then he gently pinched Duan Xiaorou's shoulder, forcing the other party to raise his head. As before, Yang Jiangong likes to look at her big eyes.

Although they were already two people who were already so familiar, hearing Yang Jiangong's words, two blushes quickly rose on Duan Xiaorou's cheeks. (To be continued......)
