Chapter 1: Whale Swallowing
Sunset, dusk, Leysin City
In the past, a sudden undead natural disaster not only swept away the lives of 300,000 subjects, but also left an indelible stain on Ares's political achievements, although it was not his responsibility, even if he was now a ninth-order great sword master, he did not deprive him of the honor of the highest governor of the province, but he knew that in his life, there would be no further hope.
Looking at the infinitely beautiful scene in the sunset, outside the city, castles are guarded all around, sighing faintly, since the reconstruction of Laisin City, inspecting the city walls every day has become a must-do for him, the governor, especially after the empire decided to attack Punk Town, the frequency of inspections is more diligent, but think about it, even if the other party is strong, there is only a small place like Punk Town in his hands, how can he really bring troops to fight over?
Shaking his head, with a little loneliness, he drank the red wine in the glass, the city gate was closed, and another dull day passed, but Ares, but he was not happy, he longed for war, only the outbreak of war, it was possible to break the status quo and regain the attention of the empire.
"Huh?" Just as Ares was about to return to his castle to rest, a team suddenly appeared out of the corner of his eye and caught his attention.
There are not many people, only about five hundred people, all cavalry, and their mounts are not ordinary war horses, but unicorns, a fifth-order demonic beast, a group of demonic beasts similar to unicorns, fast as the wind, and is very suitable as a cavalry mount of the demonic beast, but unfortunately because it is a group relationship, it is not easy to form such a force. At least as the governor of the province of Leyson, Ares did not have such troops.
But a cavalry is no matter how powerful it is. It can only be dominant on the battlefield, in siege warfare. Unless it's the kind of cavalry that can fly, cavalry can only be a supporting role, and it is not the five white-headed unicorns that really attract Ares' attention, but the knights on these horses.
All of them are dressed in black and armor, with black hair, black pupils, and weapons in addition to bows and crossbows, which are strangely shaped infantry spears.
Gun?
It was also at this moment that Ares became vigilant in an instant. Whether it is the color of their hair or the weapons used by the other party, their identities have been clearly revealed, the lord of Cyberpunk Town, who is nominally under his control, but in fact he can't control it at all, Zhuo Ao.
Five hundred cavalry, like a gust of wind, quickly came to the place outside the city where a stone's throw away, a young looking general raised his head, looked in the direction of the city tower and said loudly: "Under the punk town, the cavalry detachment Yang Yansi." He was ordered to come and receive the city of Leysin and open the city immediately. ”
"Receiving?" Although he already knew the other party's intention when he saw the other party's identity, when he heard the words of this general named Yang Yansi. I still couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and the rest was only funny, although most of the troops in the province of Leyson had already been recruited. It was prepared for the Holy See to be under unified command, but the city of Leysin was to be used as a provincial capital. There were still 5,000 soldiers and horses left to guard, and the other side was only 500 cavalry. Is this really an empty city?
"I'm Ares, the governor of Leyson, and I can want a city, but you must defeat my warriors first." Ares sneered, this guy who didn't know the situation dared to lead his troops to fight, but it was a pity that these five hundred well-equipped unicorn knights would be defeated by this guy one day sooner or later.
"I knew it wasn't going to work." Yang Yansi pursed his lips and waved his hand: "Open the city gate!" ”
"Yes, General!" The two black-armored generals who followed behind Yang Yansi rushed out and directly urged the unicorn to rush in the direction of the city gate.
Are they crazy? It was difficult for Ares to comprehend the scene in front of him, and among the five hundred black-armored knights, ten more rushed out and threw out the spears in their hands in unison.
"Bang Bang Bang Bang~"
In a series of muffled sounds, ten spears pierced evenly into the city wall, revealing the barrels of the guns, Ares frowned, looking at the spears that had been shot less than two meters from the top of the city wall, and vaguely understood what the other party was going to do, but ...... Is this possible?
"Shoot your arrows and stop them from approaching the walls!" Pulling out his big sword, Ares said in a deep voice, although he couldn't believe it, but just because this group of people stabbed their spears deep into the strong city wall made of bluestone at a stone's throw away, these black-armored knights were at least seventh-order warriors, if the other party really had such confidence, then these two warriors who rushed to the city were at least golden sword masters or even big sword masters like himself, as for being stronger, he didn't dare to think about it.
A rain of arrows overwhelmingly pressed down, but the two of them waved the spears in their hands to easily knock the dense cluster of arrows away, and when they were still ten meters away from the city wall, they jumped up from their horses at the same time, and their toes kept pointing on the barrel of the gun that was stuck upside down on the city wall, climbing up like a nimble ape.
"Warrior ready!" Seeing this scene, Ares roared sharply, but his heart continued to sink, the movements of these two people were too flexible, whether it was strength or speed and when climbing the city, there was no superfluous movement, where did Punk Town find so many strong people?
A black-armored general rushed forward first, and Ares swung his greatsword to unleash a massive blade of fighting spirit, while snatching a shield from one of his subordinates and slamming it at him.
"Smack~"
The majestic Douqi blade was stabbed by the light spear blade, with one hand, one palm pressed on the smashed shield, Ares only felt that the whole arm lost consciousness in an instant, the big shield almost took off his hand, and he was horrified in his heart, he didn't expect the opponent's strength to be so huge, rich combat experience, so that at the moment when the attack failed, he rolled on the spot in embarrassment, avoiding the ensuing shot, and at the same time, another black-armored general also jumped on the city wall at the same time.
Where does Ares dare to fight again, these two people, either of them are strong at the level of holy swordsmen, and the two holy swordsmen came to attack the city, is the world crazy?
Without thinking too much about it, Ares hurriedly took the cover of his own guards and retreated under the city wall, with two holy swordsmen as the vanguard, how strong he was as the main general of this army, Ares didn't dare to imagine that he had no hope of defending the city.
The two black-armored generals did not pursue, and after quickly killing a large number of defenders with strong strength, they took control of the defenders of the city wall and ordered them to open the city gate and let Yang Yansi outside.
When the last ray of sunlight disappeared on the horizon, the entire city of Leysin had been completely occupied by five hundred black-armored knights, and Yang Yansi ordered the accompanying intelligence officers to immediately send information to Punk Town, and at the same time quickly let the black-armored army take over the army in the city to maintain law and order.
In order to enhance their military strength in the other world, this time when they returned, the three thousand fighters who were specially exchanged for the original dragon guards were naturally not strong, but with the continuous expansion of Zhuo Ao's power, they began to survive the fittest. Every one of them in the ordinary army is a general who can serve as a vanguard and is invincible, and this time, in order to put the province of Leysen under his rule in one fell swoop before the Holy See reacts, Zhuo Ao sent the Divine Dragon Praetorian Guard to participate in the war.
With the fall of Laisen City, the three thousand Black Dragon Guards attacked at the same time, not every city needs so many people to go, except for Yang Yansi, a force that attacked the main city is five hundred, and the other Divine Dragon Guards are a team of every hundred, responsible for indiscriminate attacks on all cities in Laisen Province.
The army of Leyson Province has now been gathered by the Holy See, except for Leysin City, there are 5,000 garrisons, and the other cities are only a few hundred people at most to defend the city, under the attack of the Divine Dragon Guard, they are vulnerable, and almost overnight, all the cities in the entire Leyson Province have fallen except for a few occupied by the Holy See masters.
Immediately after, the orcs, dwarves and snow elves sent people and horses to follow the second batch of troops sent by Zhuo Ao to various cities in Laisen Province to help Zhuo Ao defend the city, accompanied by a large number of capable ministers from the world of the King of Kung Fu who followed Zhuo Ao to take over the government affairs of Laisen Province.
At the same time, there are also the elites of the major schools cultivated by the concubine for a hundred years rushed to the cities to develop their own doctrines, Legalism, Confucianism, Moism, Taoism, each school has a complete set of doctrines, compared to the ethereal light god, these schools pay more attention to the construction of personal thoughts, the perception of the world, the perception of life, compared to the ethereal light god, it is obviously more down-to-earth, as for whether it can be accepted by the people of the other world, it can only be proved by time.
"Your Majesty, there are thirty-eight cities in the province of Leyson as of this morning, and thirty-three cities have been captured by our army, and the remaining five cities cannot be taken quickly because of the intervention of the Templars of the Holy See of Light, and the Church of Light has established a strong defense line in Tanggukou and the Dogira Mountains, not only with Templars, magicians, but also several white-clothed bishops, which are difficult for the army to overcome." Xu Da, as the military commander this time, stood in front of Zhuo Ao at the moment, bowing down to report yesterday's results.
Zhuo Ao looked at the map at Tanggukou and the Duojila Mountains, these two places are two fortresses, as long as these two places are contained, it is equivalent to cutting off Zhuo Ao's pace of continuing to expand his territory.
As one of the most barren provinces in the empire, the most important feature of Laisin Province is its vast territory and sparse population, and cutting off its own way to the south is equivalent to limiting the possibility of Punk Town obtaining more land.
"Xu Da, you and Zilong led the Yang family brothers to go to the front line in person to prevent the other party's master from carrying out the beheading plan." Zhuo Ao said in a deep voice, it is enough to annex Laisen Province, after all, Zhuo Ao has a limited number of people in his hands now, with the vast territory of Laisen Province, as long as there are decades, the population problem will no longer be a problem, and because of the good relationship with the Sea Clan, the sea route is unblocked, and it is impossible for the Bright Sect to cut off Zhuo Ao's trade routes, and then, just wait for the meeting with the high-level of the Bright Sect to divide the territory.
