Chapter 467: The First Battle

It didn't take much time to adapt to the new godhead level and transcendent divine power, and after receiving the news that all the legions were in place, Qin Feng's true body descended from the kingdom of God and ordered the troops to attack the Broman Empire in two ways.

The scale of this military operation was almost greater than any previous one, and the mobilization of more than 1.5 million ground troops by the Star ShanEmpire, coupled with a large naval fleet all the way south along the coastline, posed the most immediate threat to a series of important ports and rich areas in the coastal region.

Of course, the Bloman Empire also has a navy, and in terms of scale, it is still above the Star Fir Empire, but due to the division within the empire, the navy is also divided into multiple factions. Among them, the eighth, tenth, and eleventh fleets, which were the strongest, totaled more than 200 large and small warships, all of which belonged to the Great Prince. The twelfth and fourteenth fleets belonged to the four princes. The 19th and 20th fleets belonged to the five princesses.

As for the fleets of other numbers, they are either fictitious or only fleets that once existed in history, and they have long since been abolished.

Moreover, in these fleets, there are a full seventeen magic giant ships, and the specifications are similar to the ones that Qin Feng ordered from the dragon-blood gnomes, but this is the family foundation that the Broman Empire Navy has worked hard to accumulate over a hundred years, so there is nothing difficult to understand.

In terms of overall size, the navy of the Xingshan Empire is indeed inferior to the Broman Empire now, but Qin Feng is not so worried, and he is not facing a complete navy.

In the early morning, the earth began to tremble, and groups of elite soldiers walked out of the barracks, assembled, mounted their horses, and embarked on a long journey.

Qin Feng led 150,000 of the best-equipped Praetorian Guard Legions, 300,000 regular legions, and a large number of strong and mage priests, took the western route, and after crossing the border, he successively crushed the territories of more than ten large and small nobles, and the troops pointed directly at the important city of the empire.

The city of Biles is the commercial and political center of the Broman Empire in the border provinces, with more than 100,000 regular troops stationed all year round, and the governor of the province, Duke Patmick, also has the right to mobilize and expand the army on his own, and to recruit all the noble private armies in the jurisdiction to assist in the war.

Now that the situation inside and outside the empire is unstable, Patmick has expressed his support for the eleventh prince, and under the instruction of the new master, the number of troops under his command has doubled, plus the private armies of those noble lords, adding up to 400,000.

The news of Qin Feng's personal expedition soon reached the desks of many bigwigs in the Bloman Empire. In the province of Pumira in the middle of the empire, in an ancient and magnificent royal hunting palace.

Prince Eston, the Eleventh Prince, was sitting in his makeshift chamber, perusing the messages in front of him. Occasionally, he would ask the officials around him.

After a moment, a grim sneer appeared on his gloomy face, and he said coldly: "With less than half a million troops, even if they are all elites, can they swallow my empire?" What a delusion! ”

He had long since proclaimed himself emperor and was content to consider the entire empire his own, though not many outsiders recognized it at all.

For a behemoth like the Bloman Empire, nearly 500,000 troops are actually not much, and it is far from enough to fight a war to destroy the country. Even Prince Eston now only controls one-fifth of the country, and the number of legions that can be mobilized in a hurry is as high as two million.

As for the other elite army of the Xingshan Empire with a scale of one million, Qin Feng handed it over to Audrey to command, echoing him thousands of kilometers away, but it was already in the sphere of influence of the Great Prince, so Prince Eston did not pay too much attention.

At first glance, Qin Feng's division of troops is not a clever decision, and the benefits may not be greater than the pay, of course, for Prince Eston, this is his own opportunity.

As long as he can manage to defeat Qin Feng's invading legion, his prestige in the empire will immediately rise, and it is not a problem to overpower those brothers and sisters, and naturally he will be able to prompt those big nobles who are neutral and wait and see to change their attitudes and support him, and it will not be far from becoming the real lord of the empire.

"What do you think Qin Feng is going to do in this war?"

Prince Eston asked in a deep voice, "He's just coming for me?" Or do you want to swallow the entire frontier province of the empire in one gulp? ”

Around, a group of generals and advisors frowned and pondered, their fate had been linked to this master, if they couldn't block the Xingshan Empire's troops this time, everyone's future was not optimistic.

A rank 20 general stood up and said, "Your Majesty, according to the minister's opinion, Qin Feng is not only going to snatch up enough imperial territory this time, he is also looking for an opportunity to threaten His Majesty, so we should concentrate our military forces to defend important areas and choose the opportunity to fight a decisive battle with his main force." ”

A wrinkled Wenchen said indifferently: "There are too many key areas that we need to guard, who knows where he will attack?" And with more than four times the advantage of troops, you don't even dare to take the initiative to send troops to fight, where are your glory and dignity as imperial warriors? ”

The general's face was difficult to look at, of course he was not a coward, but Qin Feng was not an ordinary nobleman at all, but the founder of a huge empire in just a few years, even the most arrogant leading general, would not treat him as an opponent who could be despised at will.

"Qin Feng's legions are all well-equipped,"

He said stiffly: "It is at least two levels stronger than our soldiers' equipment, and more than half of our troops are new troops who have not been fully trained, and they are not even equipped with basic equipment, and many kinds of logistics and ordnance materials are out of stock, so what can we do to fight him?" ”

In this way, the civil officials and generals present once again fell into a fierce quarrel, and the two sides argued and quarreled until Prince Eston waved his hand impatiently, and everyone fell silent.

"Master Michelle, what do you think?"

He asked a middle-aged man in gray next to him who was not good-looking, his eyes were slightly weak, and he had not made a sound just now.

Michelle smiled, and her voice with a faint feminine aura sounded: "Your Majesty now has enough troops, you might as well use part of the army to entangle Qin Feng's army first, so that he can't get out, and then mobilize the elite main force to rush to the aid in time, with the huge numerical advantage, we will definitely achieve the final victory!" ”

Prince Eston nodded, his eyes wandered back and forth on the magic sand table, and said in a deep voice: "Our army wants to hold Qin Feng back, the number is too small, at least 100,000 troops are enough, right?" ”

"If you rely on a large city with well-defended facilities for defense, this number is really enough." Michelle said.

The other generals did not have much objection to this, so in the end, Prince Eston made a decision, the battle plan was agreed, and a series of orders were issued one after another, so that the troops that had already been reorganized were stationed in different areas to guard to the death, and the traces of the enemy troops were immediately reported.

And he himself is sitting in the center with the main military force, millions of troops, and he has the advantage of geography and people, so he can't believe that he can't deal with that Qin Feng.

A moment later, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps and a slightly panicked announcement. A sanctuary powerhouse rushed in at full speed, presenting a sealed copper pipe, covered in dust and blood.

Prince Eston frowned and opened the magic seal on the brass pipe, poured out a magic letter paper from it, and his face changed greatly after only scanning it: "Qin Feng's legion has taken the capital of the border province, Biles City, and the Duke of Patmick was seriously injured and captured!" ”

The surrounding civil and military officials were terrified, Patmick had 400,000 troops in his hands, although a considerable part of them were numbered, but they should not have been defeated so quickly.

Could it be that this Qin Feng is really so powerful?
