0116 Finishing Strike
"Why?"
Abner was puzzled.
"Because this rumor is unassailable, the statement given by Invincible City is that Kadi was defeated, not killed, so even if Kadi turns the tide on the front line, there is no way to prove that Kadi did not lose, otherwise Wutong City should be captured smoothly."
Bloody as explained.
"Kill the spreaders of the message!"
Abner's eyes flashed with a hint of cruelty.
"It's still not good, it's easy to be identified as covering up the failure of Kati, if the invincible city uses the topic to play, I'm afraid it will have something to say."
Blood Ru reluctantly informed.
"So what to do?"
Abner let out a long sigh of helplessness.
According to the current strength of Invincible City, it is not at all something that ordinary lords can handle.
If an order is issued for multiple lords to fight together, according to Abner's understanding of these people.
These people will definitely play all kinds of tricks to avoid a head-on confrontation with the Invincible City as much as possible.
So Abner seems to have a lot of cards in his hand, but he doesn't actually have a lot of cards.
"I have a plan, but I don't know if the king will agree?"
Blood is like temptation.
"Please."
"I hope that the eldest prince will travel to Sichuan in blood and can lead the troops on an expedition."
As soon as the blood said this, there was a discussion in the main hall.
"This.... Yukawa, what is your opinion? ”
Abner asked.
"As the eldest son of the royal family and a member of the Blood Sheath Family, You Chuan is willing to fight for the principality!"
Dressed in gold armor, Xueyouchuan took a step forward and knelt down on one knee.
Abner's face couldn't bear it, the eldest prince was the most important prince he had.
But the suggestion of blood is indeed brilliant.
Under normal circumstances, if you let a lord go on a crusade, you will definitely lose a lot of money, and even lose your life.
It's strange that these lords will help.
But with the leadership of the eldest prince Xueyouchuan to set an example, it is definitely different.
The attitude of the Principality of the Blood Sheath from its subjects to the soldiers on the battlefield will also change greatly.
Under the general trend, even if individual lords are cowardly, they will never dare to show it blatantly.
But at the same time, this risky move, once the eldest prince is killed on the battlefield, or captured, it is difficult for the current Blood Sheath Principality to bear.
"Go, You Chuan, don't insult the Blood Sheath Family!"
Abner pondered for a long time and made a final decision.
The news of the Great Prince's expedition to Wutong City soon spread throughout the entire territory of the Principality of the Blood Sheath.
For a while, the people's mentality was uplifted, but the lords who paid more attention to the interests of their city-state and saw farther were extremely depressed at the moment.
Since the invincible city entered the Principality of the Blood Sheath, whoever touched it died.
I thought that Kadi could end it, but I didn't expect that before the battle, it was dropped back to the front line, and it was said that it had lost a game, and the truth has not been determined so far.
The meaning of Abner's invitation to war is also obvious.
If you don't have the dignity to go to war to fight against Sycamore City, the Blood Sheath Family will help you be decent.
The lord who was designated to participate in the war was also helpless, after all, the eldest prince of the family had gone, and it was indeed impossible to continue to pretend to be dead.
As a result, the crusade force led by the eldest prince Xueyouchuan and led by the eight central lords took shape.
Due to the huge number of soldiers in the troops, it took a lot of time just to assemble from various places to the designated places, and it could be regarded as Li Li gaining some time.
Sycamore City, inside the Lord's Palace.
Sycamore looked at the map sand table with a dead face, and there was nothing else to show except a sigh of frustration.
The invincible city with a strong performance, coupled with the message of defeating Katy, he thought that it would be able to deter other lords for at least half a year.
I didn't expect Abner to be so courageous, and he directly sent the eldest prince to vow to completely defeat the invincible city.
"The eight city-states in the central part of the country, the number of troops of the prince has been increased, and the size of the troops has approached 10,000 people, if they all come to besiege Wutong City, I am afraid that they will not be able to run out."
Wang Qiang said not very optimistically.
"Strange, how did this King Abner suddenly make up his mind?"
Li Li was a little puzzled.
By secretly transferring Katy, he felt that this king liked to secretly make trouble, and he was not so bold.
I also plan to be a little more restrained, after all, the current advantage is already very large, and there is no need to chase after it.
Unexpectedly, the other party began to kill him, wanting to clear the invincible city in waves.
"Uh... Lord Li Li, I want to move to the west with my subjects, I don't know when the underground railway you said will be opened? ”
Sycamore knew that he was mentioning this first, which was a bit out of place.
But there is no way, the troops in the entire central part are gathering towards Wutong City, and the threat is no less than that of Kadi.
"No problem, let's prepare first, there will be about three days to connect underground, and then you can take someone to Guer City to squeeze first, and I will say hello to Gernza."
Li Li didn't care and gave an exact reply.
"Thank you, Lord Li Li, I'm going to prepare."
After thanking the sycamore, he quickly went out to prepare.
After that, Li Li, Wang Qiang, and Shen Qiaoyin made statistics on the total number of troops.
There are currently 2,831 units that can go into battle, ranging from Corruption, Ghosts, and Skeletons to Zombies and Humans.
The 1,800 or so rune troops in Jiayuan Province can be mobilized, and they can reach Wutong City in three days by taking the underground connecting railway.
The price is that the border between Jiayuan Province and Xueman Province will be in an empty state without troop deployment.
Dott Province can still mobilize some, but most of them are low-combat city defense troops, and Li Li did not choose to let them participate in the war.
When Hughes heard that there was a battle to be fought, he offered to come over.
However, Misty City has been recuperating for so long, and it has 400 melee troops in reserve.
The individual combat effectiveness is also not a little worse than that of the soldiers of the Blood Sheath Principality who have learned the [Fierce Fighting Technique] and the [Primary Blood Sword Technique].
was politely declined by Li Li.
"It's 4,600 in total, barely half of it."
Wang Qiang rubbed his eyebrows and sighed.
The conquest during this period of time has made everyone understand a truth, when the enemy has an absolute number and class advantage, no matter how good the strategy is, no matter how exquisite the deployment is, it will be difficult to be effective again.
Of course, if there were ten Magi to help, he might be able to gamble, but Li Li obviously didn't have such a deep reserve.
"There are a few vicious monsters here, but unfortunately they have to be killed in a hurry."
In order to help the Invincible City, Shen Qiaoyin also made efforts.
It's a pity that the Bloodsheath Principality has always been an area with more people than monsters, and it is impossible to reshape new corrupt troops in batches.
Li Li looked at the sand table and was silent for a long time.
I thought to myself, eight lords, as long as one of them brought a full-time siege force, and then relied on the strong force to cover, no matter how much the city wall was built, it was meaningless.
On the contrary, it is necessary to waste a lot of energy because of the control of the yellow sand construction workers.
In the current situation, the first thing to ensure is that there is no problem with yourself.
After thinking about it, he refocused his gaze on the west.
A thought flashed through my mind.
He had previously conducted a thorough survey of the western region.
The combined strength of the five besieged city-states was only about 6,000.
Although because it is not a core area, and high-quality soldiers are recruited to the front line, the average quality of soldiers is not very high.
The cultivation of the [Fierce Fighting Technique] is also at the level of the second layer, but if it can be replenished into the Invincible City, at least the two sides will be equal in number.
Li Li made up his mind and rode the second master back to the west on the same day.
Letters of invitation were sent to all the lords, intending to convene a council of the western lords in the city of Valley.
Sanchez, the lord of Suobei City, saw the invitation, combined with the expedition of the prince who was in full swing outside, and quickly guessed what Li Li's plan was.
However, because he was under siege, he was forced to participate.
After all, during the period when Li Li was gone, the environment in the west was particularly relaxed.
There is no restraint of the invincible city, and there is no pressure and coercion of the Bloodsheath Principality.
These five people gradually found the refreshing feeling of being an independent lord and occupying the land as kings.
So I don't really want the Bloodsheath Duchy to return.
However, seeing that this is the general trend, the best way to deal with it is not to offend Li Li during this time period.
Otherwise, the other party is really determined to retreat to Jiayuan Province, and if he doesn't do it well before leaving, he will have a big wave.
Abner couldn't reach it, but the five lords were in trouble.
Of course, the five are not without countermeasures at all.
Before the trip, he passed through a secret message, and promoted Sanchez, the lord of Suobei City, to the leader of the small group, in response to this extremely dangerous invitation.
Two days later, the five lords of the west arrived at the city of Gul.
All the greeting etiquette is in accordance with the specifications, and there is no meaning of slacking off at all.
To their surprise, in addition to Gernza and Blood, Sycamore also participated in this lords' gathering.
The faces of the five people were somewhat ugly, because the appearance of the tree sycamore was a powerful proof that defeated Kati.
Otherwise, submission will not make sense at all.
Li Li can't be defeated, and then the tree Wutong will run over and return to Shun.
"It's an honor to receive the invitation of Lord Li Li, I don't know if I came here this time to discuss something related to the western region?"
Sanchez was the first to speak, and the four words of the western region were slightly accentuated.
Apparently a euphemism that I would not be involved in anything outside of the West.
"This time it's not the west that needs to be discussed, it's the middle."
Li Li said, unveiling the sand table curtain on the long table.
"Chubu? This distance is too far, and the five of us don't have many cavalry, so we can't help it. ”
After Sanchez finished speaking, the other four lords echoed one after another, as if they were a small group advancing and retreating together.
"Your information is correct, the eight lords in the central part plus a great prince are gathering more than 10,000 troops to attack Wutong City."
Li Li said, pointing to a few points on the sand table.
Sanchez nodded silently, silent.
"Without your participation, there is a high probability that the Invincible City will lose, if you are lucky enough to break through, you can only want to flee to the west, use the city wall to contain the speed of the enemy's large army, and buy time for the escape to Jiayuan Province, and then Guer City will be captured soon, followed by Autumn School City, and then you can return to the embrace of the Principality of the Blood Sheath."
After Li Li's words, Sanchez had nothing to say.
Because everything about the progress of the battle was completely clarified by Li Li with the most reasonable inference.
"Lord Li Li, don't be so pessimistic."
Sanchez advised.
"I'm not pessimistic, this is the way the war is about to go, but there's another version that you're involved in, do you want to hear about it?"
Li Li's inquiry aroused the interest of the five lords.
After exchanging glances with each other, Sanchez smiled and said, "Please let Lord Li Li know." ”
"You participate in the war indirectly, just stuff the troops in your hands to me, after winning the army of the great prince, the invincible city will push back to the central region, and you can divide it as you like after the eight core city-states are captured."
After Li Li finished saying this proposal, the atmosphere fell silent.
At this moment, eye contact was obviously not enough to express it, and the five of them simply discussed it in a whisper.
With the return of the Principality of the Blood Sheath, will the situation of these five be improved?
No, and because of the loss of trust, they will definitely be alienated by the blood sheath family and become more marginalized.
The front line recruits soldiers from their own city-states, and the prosperous central core region sucks the blood of their own city-states.
The land of the Bloodsheath Principality is all preemptive and annexed, not only are the factions chaotic, but as long as interests are involved, no one will be polite to you at all.
The five lords have suffered over the years, and I don't know how much they have suffered.
Of the eight city-states in the central region, none of them have been stripped of their benefits.
This is also the fundamental reason why they will rot when facing the invincible city.
In retrospect, the Invincible City did blockade five city-states and coerce the lieges.
But there really is no real harm to say that there is no real harm.
On the contrary, it was the advanced facilities of Guer City and Autumn Snow City that made them extremely envious.
Jur of Mountain White City was the eldest of the five lords, and after a long discussion, he was the first to ask a question.
"Lord Li Li, even if we are willing to hand over the soldiers, how can we ensure that they are willing to participate in the war?"
The soldiers didn't have the complicated thoughts and considerations of the lords.
After years of operation, if it is said that they do not fight for the Principality of the Blood Sheath, but only for the lord, these soldiers are generally acceptable.
But if you rashly throw it to the invincible city that blockades your own city-state, it will be difficult for it to accept.
"I know that you have made up a lot of rumors about the Invincible City in order to keep the soldiers from being mentally corrupted."
As soon as Li Li's words came out, the five people were a little ugly.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you quickly improve your fighting skills, you can quickly change the attitude of the soldiers."
Li Li said with great confidence.
"Uh.... Does it really have such a big appeal? ”
Sanchez asked.
"Lord Sanchez, do you remember the first rule of believing in the God of Fighting?"
Li Li asked rhetorically.
"Of course, to believe in the God of Fighting is to believe in yourself."
Sanchez replied.
"Whether it's the royal family or the lord, only the power you have is the most real and credible, and this is where the fighting god is most worthy of belief."
Li Li concluded.
The five lords fell into deep thought again.
But in fact, the pros and cons of going to the ship of Invincible City, Li Li has already made it very clear.
Now it's all up to you.
"By the way, all I want is soldiers, so nominally, even if the invincible city is defeated on the front line, you still have room to operate, of course, how to make the excuse reasonable and credible, it depends on you."
Li Li did not forget to give a reminder.
