The royal capital of the Lion Kingdom, the Lion City,

The boxy, neat bungalows are dotted with a few collapsed houses, and there are still traces of fire burning on the street

Although the Legion and the Hunting Kingdom did not make it here, they still saw the scars of the war in the unprocessed Cannes.

On both sides of the main road leading from the north gate of the river embankment to the palace, there are crowds of people.

Men and women, old people and children, farmers, craftsmen and fruit sellers all stood up and craned their necks in the direction of the city gates.

In just a few days, the days have improved at a rate visible to the naked eye.

The whistling bombers were gone, and the shrill air raid sirens were far from the lives of the city's residents.

People no longer have to be awakened from their sleep by the sound of air raid sirens, or hide under their beds with their families shivering, praying that they are not on the list of those killed.

This is certainly not because of the conscience of the enemy.

It's the alliance that came.

Hearing that the Storm Corps, which had been scattered from the front line to the rear for repair, would pass by, many people rushed over early in the morning to catch a glimpse of the friendly forces that had saved them from fire and water.

The kingdom's elite "scarab" team of 10,000 people entered the city first under the leadership of Prince Winter, followed by reinforcements from the Alliance

Living up to the expectations of the residents of Lion City.

I saw a group of heroic soldiers, walking towards them with neat steps.

They carried rifles on their backs, wore uniform exoskeletons, and shiny alloy cuirass emblazoned with the Union flag and the Storm Corps badge.

The great manager specially instructed that the ceremony of this review will be included in the game CG, if you don't want to be reduced by the feature film, please at least dress like a person.

Although Chu Guang only asked for normal and decent dress, when he learned that his corps would be on the game CG, the commander of Quanshui instantly shouted to his friends as if he had been beaten with chicken blood,

"Brothers!"

"This is a great opportunity to pretend on the forum! All give me a hundred and twenty points of spirit! The rifle is on the shoulder, the chest is up, the step is kicking, and the neck is twisted to the right!"

"For the Alliance!"

And the response of the players is also quite powerful, one or two really took out one hundred and fifty points of spirit, and exploded with amazing momentum.

"Long live the Union!!

"Demacia!!"

"Whoa!"

Most players really just want to pretend to be a force or perform art.

However, the commander of the spring water is in the next big game of chess, and has already used this opportunity to show off on the official game CG as a free recruitment advertisement.

Want to be the shield of the Alliance?

Do you want to show your loyalty to the manager?

Want to sprinkle the light of order all over this wasteland?

Then join the Storm Corps!

They will sweep away all chaos like a storm and bring down a righteous judgment against the barbaric! Triumphant to the cheers of the people!

In just a few seconds, he even thought of the advertising words!

Just when the Spring Commander was thinking, the eyes of the residents of Lion City on both sides of the road were already firmly focused on these players.

People waved their arms and cheered, or whispered to each other, or cast envious glances.

"Is that the army of the Alliance?"

"I heard it's called the Storm Corps!"

"Why is it so?"

"It's a team of thousands, right?"

"Less? Are you kidding? What else is a team of 1,000 men? Those thousand boys are all Awakened!

"1,000 Awoken?! How can it be! Did you drink too much?"

"I didn't blow it! The two sons of the blacksmith next door to me are serving on the front line, and I heard him say that the combat effectiveness of those people is incredible, and a thousand people are chasing ten thousand people!"

"Hiss......"

The bare-armed man and a few neighbors brag, telling them about the alliance that they had heard out of nowhere.

I heard that this Storm Corps is not the strongest in the alliance

At the beginning, there was a marauder tribe called Chew Bone, with nearly 30,000 troops, who were picked up by a group of less than 500 airborne troops.

It wasn't just the neighbors and vendors who were interested, some young girls also cast longing glances at the team

"The armor on them is so handsome......"

"People too."

“....

Whether it was the sophisticated equipment, the high morale, or the handsome face, they all left a deep impression on the onlookers of the Lion City residents.

Even the kingdom's most elite troops, the 10,000-strong "Scarab" team led by Prince Winter, were outnumbered by this force of only a thousand people.

The girl holding the flower basket tosses Hua Wei into the air

Bathed in the cheers and cheers of the crowd, the spring commander walking in the crowd unconsciously put a smile on his face.

For a moment, he finally realized the joy of being a manager.

"How do I feel like I'm a hero with soy sauce."

Walking next to the spring dude, I touched the back of my head in the darkest with a confused expression on my face.

The spring shook him a roll of his eyes

"What a soy sauce! Let's fight two games too, okay?"

Ten Punch Man said helplessly: "That's what I said, but I always feel like something is missing without a nuclear explosion."

The grave ghost hunter nodded thoughtfully.

"And the Battlefield guy is not here, I can't see this guy pretending to be forced."

Broken Leg Kevin: "+1"

Spring Commander: "......."

These people are so hard to serve!

Three days ago.

Just as the Skull Corps completely took the airfield near the Lost Valley, the combined army formed by the Alliance and the Lion Kingdom also sounded the horn of a counterattack.

The 10,000th team of the Hunter Tang Kingdom set up a defensive line near Mount Iders, trying to stop the 10,000-strong team of "Scarabs" of the Lion Kingdom from breaking through to the west.

In order to support the friendly forces in regaining lost ground quickly and preserving vital forces for the next phase of the campaign, the Storm Corps, under the orders of the army command, parachuted 30 kilometers behind the enemy's defensive line and launched a surprise attack on the rear artillery positions of the 10,000th Brigade under the cover of the Iron Heart.

At that time, stationed near the artillery position, it was the 20,000th Hunter Brigade that had retreated and repaired, and a fierce exchange of fire broke out on the wheat field as soon as the two sides met!

Under the command of Brother Quanshui, the Storm Corps was divided into pieces on a 10-kilometer-wide front, infiltrating the enemy front with a squad of 10 people as the basic combat unit, and a group of three teams was interspersed with division and encirclement, relying on 1,000 people to fight 10,000 people, and the 20,000 people were beaten and abandoned their armor, and they were crushed in less than 24 hours.

This battle can be said to be a victory, which can be called Leaching Australia, and it has completely played the style of the alliance.

Of course, the reason why the front is advancing so smoothly is not only due to the excellent tactical command of Brother Quanshui, but also the strategic judgment of the manager.

With the loss of nuclear bombing capabilities and armored clusters, and the cutting off of supply lines in the north, with Griffin's cunning, it is a high probability event.

It was to be expected that in Oasis 9, the coalition forces of the Alliance and the Lion Kingdom would not put up too much resistance, and they would encounter unreinforced forces from the Broken Queen.

After taking the rear position of the 10,000 troops of the Hunter Kingdom, the Storm Troop immediately used the artillery that the enemy had not had time to blow up, and used the enemy's artillery fire to open a way for the friendly troops to advance

Faced with pressure from both the front and the rear, with a Ironheart overhead, the 10,000th Elite Squad of the Hunter Kingdom was quickly annihilated by the formation.

After 72 hours of pushing all the way to the west, the Alliance's front has been pushed to the westernmost edge of Oasis 9.

Aside from sporadic resistance, the Lion Kingdom has largely regained all of its lost territory.

And all this is inseparable from the help of the alliance,

As the protagonist of the whole celebration ceremony, Chu Guang's appearance is naturally the most stylish.

The majestic Heart of Steel drove straight above the Lion City, and the elevator descended from the sky and landed steadily at the end of the red carpet that covered the stairs.

Overlooking the flowers and applause in the audience, as well as the storm corps marching to the gate of the palace, the corners of Chu Guang's mouth couldn't help but pull a faint smile.

The inhabitants of the Lion Kingdom have only seen the victory in front of them, but he has already seen the abundant granary of the Alliance's future

Aren't those awakened super eating?

Is 110,000 square kilometers of oasis enough?

This piece of black soil, irrigated by river embankments, is much more fertile than the tens of thousands of acres of fields in the north of Linghu Lake!

With the introduction of advanced seeds, machinery, planting experience, fertilizers and pesticides, it is not a problem to double the total value of food production here!

With more and cheaper food, you can attract more immigrants from other regions and recruit more players.

I don't know what surprises the B6 layer can bring him this time, but the number of closed beta players can finally increase.

"Xiaoqi, remember to pick a good angle and shoot me handsomely."

Inside the helmet of the power armor, a line of light blue floating windows appeared,

Xiaoqi: "Hey, it's a little difficult to do, the master is super handsome no matter which angle!" (///w//)’

"Hahahaha!"

Ren Yu smiled happily, raised his index finger and clicked on the helmet, and lifted the mask of the helmet.

After the elevator stopped, he took Chu Guang behind him and a group of guards wearing exoskeletons and walked towards the outside of the elevator.

The shadow of the airship hung over the palace, obscuring the scorching sun

The king of the Lion Kingdom, Edward Lion, and his ministers stood on the steps of the palace, waiting for the arrival of the overlord from the province of the River Valley.

Standing next to the king, a tall, lanky-looking minister frowned slightly

He leaned into the king's ear and whispered.

“…… I thought it was disrespectful for this man to drive the airship above the palace, and now that he was wearing power armor and stepping on your palace, the alliance probably has no false intention of forming an alliance--"

The old king, with his eyebrows lowered, opened his eyes slightly, and glanced at the minister next to him with a hint of warning.

"Shut up."

A chill crept across his back, and the minister immediately closed his mouth and said no more.

The old king's face regained its kind expression, and he looked at the administrator who was walking towards him with the guards, and spoke in a loud voice with a hint of a smile

"Welcome to the Lion City, the administrator of the Alliance, the overlord south of Tianshui...... I didn't expect you to be here in person. "

Of course, he knew that this was Lenovo showing off his strength, and even if he knew, he could only turn a blind eye

At least......

These people don't look bad

After they came to Oasis 9, they did not do anything to apologize like the Legion, nor did they have the intention of interfering in the country's court and internal affairs, which was already a great joy.

"You're welcome," Lu Bei smiled slightly and stretched out his right hand, "We are here for justice and order, to crusade against our common enemy. "

As for the rest, that's all in passing.

The old king stretched out his right hand and shook it gently with the administrator in front of him.

In front of that tall and mighty image, he looked like a worthless old man, and the golden crown and the rich cloak did not diminish him much in might.

Looking at that young and handsome face, Ren Yujin's eyes couldn't help but have a hint of envy, if only he were thirty years younger.

If he is in the prime of life, he can still ride a war horse and lead troops to fight, and the armament of the Lion Kingdom will not decline to this point.

I hope that his children who went out to practice can bring him some surprises......

The silver spherical drone flew to the side and recorded this historic moment,

From the moment of the handshake, the Lion Kingdom will cede a portion of its sovereignty in exchange for support from the Alliance.

From this moment to nothing, the Alliance's sphere of influence finally expanded beyond the provinces of the River Valley, bringing this fertile land irrigated by the relics of pre-war civilization into the territory of labor.

…… This is not politeness, but gratitude from the heart," Edward's expression was solemn, and he looked at Lu Bei and said, "If it weren't for you, I'm afraid this city would have turned to dust...... The people of the lion will not surrender, and we would rather lose the land left by our ancestors than to be slaves of the legion."

Yade, the marshal of the Restoration Army, who was also invited here, looked a little unnatural in his expression, and he threw his mouth unconventionally,

He didn't think that the lions were more courageous than their honey badgers, they were the lone brave people who faced the threat from the west, if the lion kingdom was really as powerful and unyielding as the old man said, then these people should have been killed in Oasis 3 to fight side by side with them when the honey badger kingdom was invaded by the Falcon Kingdom.

As for this false statement, it is just for the sake of so-called decency

However, his emotional intelligence is not so low that he jumps out and dismantles the stage on such an occasion.

At this moment, his attention was completely attracted by the administrators of the alliance,

The blue power armor, and the long-handled warhammer on its back, were undoubtedly the legendary one

Contrary to legend, however, he was neither a 60-year-old man nor a beard with a full chin.

On the contrary, it's a-

Quite a handsome young man?

Without paying attention to a pair of surprised eyes in the crowd, Lu Bei smiled and shook the old king's hand, and said in a violent voice.

"I have witnessed your bravery on the bridge, and we have kept our promise." The implication – it's your turn

"Of course...... We will also keep our promises. "

Edward had a smile on his face, but he sighed in his heart,

The lion royal family was once the overlord of this desert, whether it was the hunting wish or the honey badger, or the golden lizard and hump of the north and south, they were once their tributary states

Now he wants to be subservient to others, if there is no unwillingness, it is impossible.

But even so, he has no confidence to repay his debts.

With the dominance of the alliance on the battlefield, even in the heyday of national power, they did not have the confidence to defeat the alliance on the frontal battlefield.

Thinking of this, Ren Yujin couldn't help but comfort himself in his heart.

In fact, being a vassal of the alliance is not necessarily a bad thing.

As a result of his success in defending the capital of plenty, his younger brother, Prince Winter, reached the peak of his prestige both in the nobility and among the people.

Especially since this guy is not honest about what kind of intelligence organization.........

It's good to have an alliance to contain him.

In addition to containing domestic power, the royal family also has access to industrial aid from the Alliance and even the East Coast, as well as dangerous promises from Alliance administrators.

On the surface, he sacrificed some of his rights.

But there's more to it......

The ceremony to celebrate the arrival of the Alliance reinforcements continued to the end in an atmosphere of cheerful silence.

Although the lion's palace did not have a banquet hall that could accommodate a thousand soldiers, the court's chancellor of finance gave each soldier a reward of 2,200 gold lion coins.

This amount is fully 5 times that of the 10,000 soldiers of Shengjia City.

Even if the price of goods in the Lion Kingdom soars due to the war, this is a lot of money.

Soldiers of the Alliance can take the money to spend in bazaars and taverns.

However, before the disbandment, the commander of Quanshui repeatedly stressed that he must be a civilized and high-quality person, and he was not allowed to have conflicts with local residents, fights and troubles, and he was not allowed to take equipment out of the barracks.

They are a disciplined force, not to mention that they represent not only themselves, but everyone in the alliance, including players and NPCs.

Looking at the money bag in his hand, the player who changed into civilian clothes couldn't help but sigh.

"Hey, I thought I could experience the Korean Army, but this doesn't work, that doesn't work."

The NPCs in the Luoxia Province have a very different style from the NPCs in the River Valley Province.

The former has deep eye sockets and a slender nose bridge, which gives it an exotic feel

The valley provinces, on the other hand, are more common in the south, because the air is dry and the climate is cold, and the skin tone is relatively comparative

Although the Lion Kingdom lacks a little bit of "artistic bacteria", it does not prevent him from having a pair of eyes that are good at appreciating and discovering beauty.

Of course, it's too superficial to say this.

The main thing is that he wants to learn the language of Renlian.

Seeing through his thoughts at a glance, the captain who led the team couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Can you have some fun?"

Another player standing next to him chimed in

"That's it! We are a Union, not a Federation! Walk! Help the old lady cross the street!"

The player made a sloppy face.

"Hug, I'm sorry that Dad is a useless person. I'm sorry that I'm a thoughtless person.

"Fuck off, I don't know you."

"Okay, thank you, captain, I'll be back in a while!"

After saying that, the player smiled, carrying the money bag and missing out where he went.

"This guy."

Seeing the guy's back disappear into the crowd, the captain shook his head and patted the shoulder of the good brother next to him.

"Leave him alone, let's go, let's drink."

Hearing this, the player, who was shouting to help his grandmother cross the road a second ago, suddenly showed a sleepy expression on his face.

"Captain, I suddenly felt that I couldn't leave this guy alone...... In case he is drunk, I will persuade him. "

Captain: "Get out!"

Hearing this, the player's eyes lit up.

"Okay!"

After saying that, the man also flashed, leaving the captain alone in the wind.

It's getting harder and harder to lead this team.........

While players are free to explore the new map, a feast is taking place in the royal court.

Refusing to change his clothes, Lu Bei put on a blue coat by himself, pulled up the zipper, and moved to the banquet hall of the palace.

The kingdom's dignitaries and nobles had been waiting in the banquet hall for a long time, including King Edward, who was also waiting for his arrival.

It wasn't until Lu Bei stepped into the banquet hall that the court orchestra played a melodious symphony, and the master of ceremonies officially announced the lack of the banquet.

In addition to Lu Bei, the banquet was attended by his personal guards, some of the officers on the airship, and several high-contribution players from the Storm Corps, including Quan Shui.

After the previous battles, their contribution points have reached the level of "Trainee Knight".

And the visible numbers and the shining battle medals are undoubtedly the best proof of loyalty.

Although they were also heroes on the battlefield, the officers of Prince Winter's family were completely overshadowed by the officers of the alliance.

Looking at the old man who wore a crown and presented honors to the warriors of the alliance, Bo Chew, who was sitting in the corner of the banquet hall, couldn't help but snort.

"Who is the master of the kingdom?"

Forget about the officers of the Storm Corps.

Even the Administrator's personal guard was awarded the "Golden Lion" and was ranked ahead of Prince Winter

Did these people go to war?

Even if it's to curry favor with friends, it's too much!

The colleague sitting next to him smiled faintly and said softly.

"Our Majesty the King, of course...... But who is his master is not certain. "

Nabo looked at him in surprise, but didn't say anything, just touched his glass with him, and took a shallow sip of the red wine in the glass.

Originally, no one dared to say such rebellious words.

But at this moment the authority of the royal family has declined to the extreme, and so is the awe of the nobles.

No one cared what the old king thought anymore, everyone was thinking about how to curry favor with the new "emperor."

The word alliance is too difficult to understand.

Growing up in the kingdom, they can't imagine what the concept of a community of destiny for all the survivors is, and they have no interest in the grand blueprint.

Above the kingdom is the empire, and they can only understand, or rather only want to, understand this level.

"What are your plans?"

The colleague leaned into his ear and whispered

"I'm going to open a winery, and the alliance is going to invest in the kingdom's farmland and infrastructure, and the price of food will definitely come down...... But wine is not necessarily, and I think those people drink a lot of alcohol. "

The Count's eyes lit up.

"My estate has exactly 20,000 acres of land!"

The man said with a smile on his face.

"That's great...... We can cooperate. ”

The petty aristocrats, far from the core of power, are more concerned about the money bags in their pockets

Powerful ministers with their own factions and political aspirations are more concerned with the power in their hands and the future of the kingdom.

Normally there is a conflict between the two, but there is no contradiction between the two on the issue of the overlord

Only by getting more benefits from the suzerain, the power in their hands will not shrink too much

The same is the corner of the banquet hall

The nobles and generals belonging to Prince Winter's faction formed a circle in the corner of the banquet hall.

A notekeeper lowered his voice and whispered to the nobles and officers next to him while no one was paying attention.

“…… I heard that the emperor of the alliance has not yet accepted a concubine. "

"Are you sure?" One of the commanders' eyes widened in surprise, and his face was full of disbelief.

It's really hard to believe.

In particular, even if the emperor is not interested, the ministers below him will continue to write and admonish.

After all, not having an heir is a big problem, especially when there is no heir and running around, which is even more unbelievable

Finish.

The notekeeper continued in a suppressed voice.

"It's true, that's news from Prince Kaliman, and I've heard that the Honey Badger Kingdom intends to change the law of its ancestors and is plotting to marry the Alliance......"

Alerting Yard, who was drinking alone at the banquet, a general cursed.

"Cunning weasel!"

"We're bleeding and sweating on the front line, and these guys who can't resist for even a week are asking for these tricks!"

"Can't let them steal the fruits of failure!"

"yes, you can't let them get ahead!"

A commander clenched his fists.

"I have to propose to the Prince, and I have to convince His Majesty no matter what!"

Regarding the things that everyone was talking about in the banquet hall, Lu Bei didn't pay too much attention to it.

How to develop the market of Lion Kingdom?

How to make more profit from trading?

How do you grow more potatoes and corn in an acre?

These trivial issues will naturally have life professional gamers to worry about.

As the manager of Fat Ming, the fact that the residents of Fat Ming have nothing to gain is what he should borrow at this moment

The banquet lasted for half an hour.

After the process was completed, Lu Bei only tasted a few bites of the food during the banquet and reminded the king of the matter of signing the treaty.

Although it was a little strange why the administrators of the alliance were in such a hurry, King Ren Yujin still understood and invited him and several representatives of the alliance to the conference room on the side

The specific agreement was drafted before the alliance sent troops.

Including "free trade", "military right of way", "mutual defense treaty", "anti-marauder bill", "immigration treaty", "extradition treaty", "right to investigate the relics of pre-war civilization", etc., basically do not involve consular and sovereignty, and all the agreements that can be signed are here.

Glance at it without gain.

After confirming that the content of the agreement was consistent with what had been discussed before, Lu Bei took the pen from Chu Guang's hand, signed his name on the agreement, and stamped the seal of the alliance

According to these agreements, the merchants of the alliance have the certificates issued by the alliance and can freely enter and exit all the cities of the lion kingdom, and have unhindered access to the local market, holding and operating fixed and non-fixed assets

In addition, in order to protect the dangers of the Alliance's residents and merchants, as well as the lack of gain for the Lion Kingdom, the Alliance will build no more than 5 military bases, garrison posts, and no more than 7 large military communication facilities in Oasis 9.

For a kingdom of 110,000 square kilometers, these facilities are sufficient.

No matter how much it is, the alliance can't even get so many guests.

In exchange for these treaties, Lü Bei also made a promise that the alliance would not interfere in the internal affairs of the Lion Kingdom

At the same time, the Alliance will provide a 500 million silver coin aid loan to the Lion Kingdom after the war for post-war reconstruction and the expansion of agricultural facilities.

In this way, orders can be expanded in the Union Industrial Zone, and the grain produced will eventually be sold to the Union. It's certainly a win-win for both parties!

Putting down the pen in his hand, King Ren Gejin glanced at his share of the agreement, and then looked at the sun

"What are your next arrangements?"

Returning the pen in his hand to Chu Guang, who was standing aside, Lu Bei glanced at the time and put down his eyes that were rolling on his knees

"I'm going to go back to Dawn." Ren Yujin was slightly stunned.

"Aren't you going to stay a few more days? I've got a resting palace for you—" "No, I have a more important business to attend to. ”

Looking at the old king with a look of embarrassment, Lu Bei suddenly understood something, and then said with a smile,

"Don't worry, I'll leave the Storm Corps and the Goblin Corps here, and the armored units of the Skeleton Corps are arriving here."

"They're all League elites, and they'll vouch for your danger."

"When the Iron Heart is recharged, it will immediately return to the front line."

Although the Legion has withdrawn from Oasis 9, it has not lost its ability to attack,

The old king's concern was nothing more than the fact that the legion took advantage of the Iron Heart's departure and turned its guns to kill again

Although this possibility is very small, but think about it, an old fighter who has slept in an underground bomb shelter for more than two months can go to Jia, who can reach far away

Ren Yu was not surprised by his thoughts at the moment.

Sure enough, after hearing this promise, Edward finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Relaxed shoulders slowly leaned back in his chair, and a nervous smile appeared on his face

"Thank you so much...... So much thought of for us.

Lu Bei smiled slightly, got up and stretched out his right hand

"You're welcome, and I wish our friendship to be as solid as an unbreakable alliance."

The old king, who had just relaxed, hurriedly stood up in accord, shook the manager's outstretched hand, and shook it

"That's what you said!"
