Chapter 8: Attacking Xia Yuan

Namur Duozhen looked at these chiefs under his command and said with a smile: Everyone, the Xia Yuan people said well, a glimpse of the whole leopard, it can be seen how extravagant the life of the nobles and bureaucrats of the Xia Yuan Empire is, of course, these are not the most important, the Xia Yuan Empire has had more than 100 uprisings of different sizes in the past hundred years, with an average of less than once a year. The elite troops have been sent to all parts of the country to quell the rebellion, and each counterinsurgency will lose a part of the outstanding soldiers of the Xia Yuan Empire, of course, in the last few large-scale rebel armies, we have sent a large number of fine workers to help them train the army, provide weapons, and we have also contacted the Sea Clan to ask them to provide some funds to these rebel armies for them to buy weapons and armor from the Xia Yuan army, think about it, how can such an army defend their homeland?

So why did the army do this? The reason is very simple, because the warriors were the least popular in the Xia Yuan Empire. (Fastest update)

As soon as he said this, the chieftains under his command felt inexplicable, how could the warriors of a country be the people who held the supreme power of the country? Namur Duozhen went on to say that the Xia Yuan Empire has been peaceful for two thousand years, and only in the more than three hundred years since the founding of the country, due to the need to pacify the remnants of some previous hostile countries, coupled with the nuisance of our beast demon clan on the border, and the raiding of the Sea Clan on their coastline, when these problems are solved, the rulers of the empire find that the original warriors are no longer useful, and it is not possible to govern the country by relying only on generals and troops, and there is also the need for war, if the foreign war is over, then their eyes will naturally be on the countryIn order to eliminate these potential threats, the rulers of the Xia Yuan Empire spared no effort to limit the rights in the hands of the generals and suppress the status of the warriors in society, and they have so many saint-level powerhouses, each of which is a saint-level powerhouse that can top a field army of more than 10,000 people, and the two saint-level powerhouses can deal with at least 30,000 to 50,000 people, the terrible saint-level powerhouse is not a single person, but the power of several people joining forces, and the Xia Yuan Empire has a whole hundred, what a terrible number, then the country' What is the purpose of spending so much money to support the army, what is the need for the country to train generals with so much money, and don't forget that the ancestor of the Xia Yuan Empire was a leading general, and later established the Xia Yuan Kingdom under the recommendation of his subordinates, and then there was the Xia Yuan Empire, and the Xia Yuan Empire's restriction of martial artists also involves the problem of civil and military disputes and martial arts disputes, so up to the supreme ruler of the empire, down to those civil ministers and magicians, everyone intentionally or unintentionally began to belittle the status of military generals and soldiers in the country, as the saying goes, there is something good at the top, and there must be a lot of goodness at the bottom, so in the next nearly two thousand years, the empire is the emperor, Ministers or ordinary people, no one pays attention to military generals, and the children of ordinary people would rather become small traders who are not taken seriously, and they are not willing to let their children join the army to defend the country, because defending the country is the business of those saint-level powerhouses, and it is undeniable that these saint-level powerhouses have indeed played a role in protecting the Xia Yuan Empire, as for the empire's army, it has been reduced to a local security force, as long as any force around the Xia Yuan Empire thinks about it, there are a hundred saint-level powerhouses in this empire, then any force will not act rashly, because they knew that as long as thirty saint-level people joined forces, they could destroy a medium-sized country with a population of 10 million and a land area of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, and among the countries around the Xia Yuan Empire except us, there was no force that could meet such a requirement, and besides, the Xia Yuan Empire had a full hundred saint-level powerhouses sitting in the town?

And those saint-level powerhouses are too powerful, so powerful that they no longer pay attention to the affairs of the secular world, they are blindly pursuing the highest achievement, that is, mastering the laws of time and space to become gods, gods who control everything, and the rulers and ministers of the empire have not paid attention to the dynamics of these powerhouses, and the empire has not appeared in a full two thousand years, even close to the powerhouses of the saint-level powerhouses. ()

We all know that the Xia Yuan Empire, whether it is the precept sect, tantric sect, Vinaya sect, Fahua sect, Xiaocheng sect, Tianyuan sect, geoyuan sect or the immeasurable Dao under the 'gate' of the Wuliang Sect, the small immeasurable Dao, the Tianyuan Dao, the Jingyun Dao, etc., are all martial arts double cultivation, but now these religious 'doors' have only cultivated techniques and not martial arts, because the dual cultivation of martial arts is not as good as only practicing magic and not only cultivating martial arts at the beginning, so these religions ' In order to pursue the rapid growth of power, the people of the sect gave up the original dual cultivation of magic and martial arts and changed to only cultivating magic, but they forgot that in the history of the Zhongzhou Continent, those gods were all dual cultivation of martial arts, and they only practiced martial arts without cultivating martial arts, which violated the method of cultivation, which was difficult to achieve, and other magic 'doors' of the Xia Yuan Empire were very prosperous, but what are the main practices of these magic 'sects', which is alchemy, alchemy, and longevity, not attacking. Sex 'can communicate with the powerful spells of nature, and the practice of alchemy, alchemy and longevity is very expensive, so these so-called masters of spells under the guise of refining various body-nourishing pills for those nobles let these nobles exploit ordinary people, so the nobles in order to be able to maintain their luxurious life and in order to be able to get those so-called all-encompassing pills that can cure all diseases and can prolong life without any cultivation. They wantonly exploited the ordinary people, and even used the prestige of the saint-level powerhouses to ask the 'Jing' Spirit Empire and the Snow Mountain Dwarf Tribe to provide them with raw materials for cultivating these pills, the religious martial arts 'sect' has degenerated, and those secular martial arts 'sects' they simply can't recruit school-age children who are willing to practice martial arts, and it is only a matter of time before a 'sect' sect does not have its own reserve force so decaying, and there are more than 300 secular martial arts 'sects' that have disappeared in the past two thousand years, and these secular martial arts ' There have been several martial gods, sword immortals and more than sixty sword saints and martial saints in the door, but what the rulers and ministers of the empire did not expect was that just three hundred years ago, among the original more than 100 saint-level powerhouses in the empire, the first saint-level powerhouse began to retreat and cultivate the power of comprehending the law, so in the next 150 years, the 100 saint-level powerhouses have all retreated and cultivated, just imagine, a person who does not pay attention to the army, the aristocracy lives a luxurious life, and the people and traditional allies are exploited excessively, and there is no saint-level powerhouse to sit in the domestic outbreak**** What else does the constant state have to fear us?

So on March 18, 2315 of the Xia Yuan calendar, on June 27, 2205 A.D. on June 27, the grassland empire brazenly launched an unprecedented war against its eastern neighbor, the behemoth-like empire, and the grassland empire mobilized a total of more than 1.5 million coalition troops, these coalition troops include, the fox clan, 1,000 shamans, there are 532 priest apprentices, 351 shamans, 100 chief priests and 17 chief priests, 500 priests of the Ji tribe, including 260 shamans, 130 shamans, 88 chief priests, 22 chief priests, and grasslandThere are thirty-five 'fine' spirit shamans, all of these thirty-five people are powerful shamans above the main priest, thirty main priests and five main priests, but the grassland 'fine' spirit shamans are all multi-element shamans, in addition to not being able to cultivate light and dark spells, the other six elements of wind, fire, water, earth, space, and life can be cultivated at the same time, so the shamans of the grassland 'spirit' spirit are all a step higher than the shamans of the same level, of course, they have their own focus on practice.

The rest are 1,500 siege assault fighters from the Dongfang Bi'meng', 50,000 heavy infantry of the Bear Clan, 250,000 heavy infantry of the Tiger Clan and Lion Clan, 370,000 light infantry of the Leopard Clan, 40,000 centaur heavy cavalry archers, and the grassland. There are 3,000 spirit and demon archers These 3,000 people are basically at the level of forest rangers and masters, 50,000 heavy cavalry of the golden-eared takin clan, 200,000 cavalry of the wolf demon light cavalry, and a total of 350,000 auxiliary troops such as sheep grain transporters, dog clan search soldiers, rat clan tunnel diggers and so on, these are ground forces, and the beast demon clan also has strong air power, including 50,000 griffin air heavy horses, 150,000 vulture and eagle clan air light horses.

A total of six ways to attack Xia Yuan, but there is still a small period at the beginning of the all-out attack. Interlude', Namurdo really conducted a large-scale hunting activity in front of the Yingchou Pass on the border between the Xia Yuan Empire and the Grassland Empire in order to be famous, the so-called hunting is actually a kind of military exercise, and also sent a messenger to invite the guards of the Eagle Pass to observe, but the guards of the Eagle Pass did not go, because in his eyes, the former Grassland Alliance, the current Grassland Empire is a group of barbarians, watching their hunting? What is there to observe, you must know that the reason why Yingchou Pass is named Yingchou is because this military pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, on its left is the Moyun Mountain at an altitude of 4,500 meters, on the right is the Yingchou Pass at an altitude of 6,000 meters above sea level, the Yingchou Pass in the middle of the cloud cover mountain is 1,300 meters high, two kilometers long on the left and right, and there are 32 horses that can run side by side on the city wall.

Just imagine who else can break through such a pass as long as they guard the city 'gate', and now all the generals of the Xia Yuan Empire have not participated in any decent large-scale wars, and can participate in several quelling domestic uprisings. Chaos' can already boast in front of his comrades that he has experienced a hundred battles, so the five-rank guard general of the Eagle Sorrow Pass categorically refused the invitation of the Grassland Alliance Empire, but out of caution he still sent a scout to closely monitor the other party's hunting operation, but what he didn't expect was that the peace of the Xia Yuan Empire not only made himself paralyzed as a general, but even those who were known as the army' The elite scouts didn't take the Grassland Alliance's hunting operation seriously, so the scout team of less than 100 people went out of the city and divided into three teams to monitor the movements of the opposite side from afar, but their so-called surveillance was as if they were watching each other's performances, neither hiding their whereabouts nor paying attention to the other party's actions, and when the Grassland Alliance was about to end the operation, the scout team of less than 100 people was all sniped by the grassland 'spirit' spirit rangers sent by Namur Dozhen at a long distance, not only that, Namur Dozhen also sent a messenger to meet the Eagle Chou Pass guard and said that at the end of the hunting operation, they found that one of the golden-eared takin heavy riders was accidentally lost, they suspected that they had entered the Eagle Chou Pass, hoping to send troops into the Eagle Chou Pass to find, such an unreasonable request was naturally rejected by the other party, you must know that the pass of any country is the most important military facility in this country, although the Eagle Chou Pass in order to be able to trade with the Grassland Empire in the pass set up a field, every day there are also many people from the beast demon tribe into the Eagle Chou Pass to trade, with the skins produced by the Grassland Empire'Mao', all kinds of 'meat', mushrooms, and 'medicine' in exchange for various luxury goods produced by the Xia Yuan Empire, such as porcelain, tea, ironware, and walking' Private' some weapons and armor, but it is impossible to let the other party's army carry weapons into their territory on a large scale, but Namurdo's real envoy did not entangle too much, just said that he hoped that the defender would be able to send soldiers to help find it, and return it as soon as possible after finding it, the Eagle Chou Pass guard was naturally full of promises after listening, but early the next morning, when all the soldiers and civilians in the Eagle Chou Pass had not woken up in their sleep, their nightmare came, and Namrdo really sent into the city to work with beasts and demons, in the three thousand grasslandsWith the help of the 'spirit' demon archer, he opened the 'gate' of the city of Eagle Chou Pass in one fell swoop.
