623 Killing royals

The next day, Ling Xiaotian took his 120,000 soldiers, leaving 20,000 or 30,000 recruits to be led by Jiang Yicheng and Liu Tiancheng, who continued to be responsible for the safety of the imperial capital, so as not to catch fire in the backyard during the battle.

Gongsun Jingcheng handed over one of his legions to Ling Xiaotian, Liu Tiancheng's father was also very generous, and handed over his most elite legion to Ling Xiaotian's hands, with a total of 170,000 troops, Ling Xiaotian claimed to be 200,000 to the outside world, and the mighty detour directly killed Dongguan, the largest city in the east of the Dongning Empire.

Since the two sides did not reach a final agreement, those occupied cities were still in the hands of the enemy for the time being, so the troops in the empire were empty, and Ling Xiaotian drove all the way in after killing them.

The city defense of Mazina City is very in place, the tall city walls, the thick city gates, but the number of defenders is limited, they didn't expect that Nanlu, who only has the strength to defend, also attacked, when Ling Xiaotian's army came over, many people thought that they were hallucinating

Huge siege equipment, a lot of them are captured things, when the soldiers on the city head are in a mess, the huge stones are already flying in the ripe time, Ling Xiaotian took the lead, flew to the city gate and smashed it with a hammer, the city gate was smashed into pieces, and the cavalry behind rushed in.

In this way, in less than an hour, the ownership of the city of Macina had changed hands

Then, Ling Xiaotian led 150,000 people to attack the next city, and like Ma Zina, it was very fatal to easily get the geographical location of the two cities, after they were horns of each other, they could not only defend against the reinforcements sent by the Dongning Empire, but also cut off the retreat of the hundreds of thousands of troops left in Nanlu.

The Dongning Empire panicked, because Ling Xiaotian sent them an ultimatum, and if they didn't give a clear answer within three days, they would launch an attack on the Dongning soldiers in the Nanlu Empire, and told them all the code names of the operation, which was called catching turtles in the urn

You must know that there are hundreds of thousands of Dongning troops left in Nanlu, and these people have long lost their morale, and they will really be completely annihilated, and the best result is to surrender all

The Dongning Empire immediately sent people to negotiate with Ling Xiaotian, and the price offered by Ling Xiaotian was five billion gold coins as war reparations, given the huge amount, only three billion would need to be paid for the first time, and the remaining two billion could be paid off in three years.

The total national income of the Dongning Empire in a year is only billions of gold coins, and the income from the treasury is less than one billion, and five billion gold coins are equal to their treasury income for five or six years

Seeing that the situation was not right, the Western Han Empire hurriedly withdrew its own army, and Nanlu did not chase after it, but calmly took over those cities that had been occupied. However, Ling Xiaotian offered them a higher price, a compensation of eight billion gold coins, if they dared to have any objections, after dealing with the affairs of the Dongning Empire, Nanlu would devote all the strength of the whole country to attack the Western Han Dynasty until it was destroyed

The national strength of the Western Han Empire was much stronger than that of Dongning, so the price offered to them was much higher.

The Dongning Empire really had no choice, so it sent the first batch of three billion gold coins, and Ling Xiaotian returned the two cities he had occupied, and their soldiers were able to withdraw to the country. Ling Xiaotian immediately made a look of a large army pressing the realm, and the Western Han Empire had to take out the first batch of four billion gold coins.

With the arrival of seven billion gold coins, Nanlu's losses have been greatly replenished, and the national strength has become the boss of the three major empires.

……

Grand Elder Raphael was severely reprimanded by Ziluo, scolding him for being incompetent and not being able to handle trivial matters well.

Raphael said aggrievedly: "Sect Master, it's not that your subordinates are incompetent, but that the tasks you assigned are simply impossible to complete, and the people's aspirations can't be changed, the Holy Martial Sect is already standing on the cusp, if we take any extraordinary measures, we will be pointed out by Wanfu."

Ziluo said angrily: "If I hadn't been busy with other things during this time, I would definitely have dealt with this matter personally, and there would have been no current crisis.

"Got it," Raphael said with trepidation.

During this time, Ziluo was busy with how to resurrect the old immortal, she experimented several times in succession, and achieved great results, only the last step to succeed The old immortal subjectively hopes that she can be reborn, and being a person is more attractive than being an energy body.

Ling Xiaotian didn't know these things, he was now an important minister of the Nanlu Empire, and many things depended on him.

……

While preparing to resurrect the old immortals, Ziluo began to take action against the three imperial royal families, and sent dozens of fighting masters in a row, the task of these people is very simple, to kill the imperial family, since the war has not weakened their imperial power, then use the most direct method. Since the Western Han Dynasty and Dongning finally made a compromise, which led to the early end of the War of the Three Kingdoms, the assassination operation came to their royal family first, and there is no doubt that the two empires became the punching bag of Ziluo.

The Dongning Empire, which was the first to have an accident, was killed in the palace by the emperor who was still alive, and then his eldest son, Xiao Guang, the first heir of the empire, was also killed in the room, and many members of the royal family were killed at the same time, but only one escaped, that is, Xiao Yi

Xiao Yat has always been a depressed person in the Dongning royal family, and when he withdrew the army, he was sent to the barracks to comfort the army, and he only brought an entourage, so his whereabouts were basically not grasped, and it was precisely because of this that he was lucky to leave a life.

Eighty percent of the royals were assassinated overnight, and the rest were those who had no real power and had no influence on the empire. At the same time, the Western Han Empire also came with bad news, also overnight, the royal family members and the humerus minister of the empire, a total of more than 300 people were assassinated, the assassination method was extremely cruel, poisoning and setting traps to the extreme, resulting in the collapse of the ruling class of the Western Han Dynasty overnight, they did not have as lucky as Xiao Yi, all those with slightly special identities were killed

With such a big operation, it is impossible for the party responsible for the assassination to avoid that there are no casualties on its own side, especially for the operation of the Western Han Empire, more than a dozen assassins were killed by the guards, and several were also killed on the Dongning side, so it was quickly judged that the true identity of these people was determined, and it was determined that the mastermind behind the scenes was the Holy Martial Sect

Originally, Ziluo made careful arrangements, she asked the person in charge of assassinating the Dongning Empire to pretend to be an assassin of the Western Han Empire, and the person who went to the Western Han Dynasty to pretend to be an assassin of Dongning, but the paper couldn't contain the fire, and soon the truth was revealed, there was not such a big grudge between the two empires at all, how could they send assassins to each other to assassinate, and the time of the action was still the same day, how could they have such a tacit understanding?

All of a sudden, the Holy Martial City changed from the original Holy City to a place that was spurned by thousands of people, and many members of the Holy Martial Sect issued statements one after another to break away from the Holy Martial Sect.

"Master, what should I do?" Raphael didn't expect things to deteriorate to such a point, and said tremblingly: "The congregations in the branches of various places have run away five or six out of ten, and there are still tourists declaring apostasy, so the situation is not good."

Ziluo said indifferently: "The people who go are not strong-willed, and their fighting strength is also very average, which will not have much impact on our overall strength, isn't there no one at the top of the general altar who has apostasy, there are these people, even if the three empires join forces, we don't have to be afraid to say it, the Western Han Dynasty and Dongning are already in chaos, and I will attack Nanlu next."
