"Didn't expect that, did you?" Lydia smirked and ordered, "Go, take him to the fortress." ”

When Orn returned to the Great Rift Valley Fortress, he found that the Red Pavilion flag had been planted on the walls of the fortress.

It turned out that Lydia had sent someone to repair the ropeway to the west, and she had prepared for it with two hands: if Orn didn't notice her movements, she would send a team to infiltrate the ropeway and cut off the supply of Orn's fortress.

If Orn really found out about her actions, she arranged for Mira's special forces to climb the city wall at night while Orn was leading the group to leave.

When the soldiers defending the city heard that Orn had led a night attack on Lydia, they felt safe and paralyzed. In addition, the number of defenders of the city was only 30% of the previous one, and it was taken by surprise by Mira's special combat team.

Knowing that he had fallen for Lydia, Orn still glared at Lydia arrogantly.

The young man kicked him, "Bastard thing, be respectful to the princess." ”

Mira kicked him too, "Respect, understand? ”

Orn snorted, "Since you are defeated, then take my head, don't give me nonsense." ”

Lydia smiled wryly, "Is there anyone in this world who is so anxious for you to die?" ”

Orn glanced at Lydia, "Aren't you bandits enough to gain the territory of the north?" Do you still want to attack our imperial capital, aren't you afraid of being punished by heaven? ”

Lydia shrugged, "The brutality and incompetence of the Tsars led to the desertification of the entire empire, and how many people starved to death in three years of famine - aren't they afraid of damnation?" ”

Orn's mouth cannon skills were inferior to Lydia's, and he was dumbfounded on the spot.

Lydia had Orn loosened and took him to a quiet corner. He asked, "Orn, your sword skills are exquisite, why do you want to defend that incompetent mad tsar royal family?" Aren't they bringing enough pain and calamity to this desert? ”

Eun sneered: "But they are royalty. ”

Lydia similarly sneered, "Then why are they royal?" ”

Orn was dumbfounded again.

Lydia sighed, "You've guarded imperial power for too long, and you've forgotten that imperial power was originally meant to rule. If there is no governance over the territory under his rule, what is the difference between him and a bandit? ”

Orn couldn't help but ask, "So what are you doing?" This empire has been part of the Wild Tsar royal family for a hundred years, can you change all that? ”

Lydia smiled faintly, "That's only a hundred years. ”

After all, in Lydia's concept, a dynasty of more than 100 years is not very long. She smiled, "When we have bulldozed the palace of the ruined capital, we will rebuild a new kingdom." A country free from imperial oppression. ”

Orn stared into her eyes, the suspicion on his face slowly fading, "Are you sure?" ”

Lydia nodded, "Sure." ”

Ouen closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, then suddenly knelt down on one knee to Lydia: "Under the 'Divine Sword Executioner' Orn, please surrender to the princess." ”

After Lydia's army crossed the breach, it marched southward. Along the way, I met four or five checkpoints, and I was amazed when I saw the "Divine Sword Executioner" Ou En leading the troops.

Orn doesn't talk nonsense, just tells them to open the level and submit to Lydia. With Ou'en's help, the army of the Red Pavilion drove straight in, and without fighting a single battle, he approached the outskirts of the ruined capital.

In the ruined capital city, I heard that the army was suddenly pressing, and for a while, there were rumors that the grass and trees were all soldiers, and the incompetent prince Shannu was so frightened that he almost peed his pants. However, the Empress Yueji beside her was in danger and asked, "The Red Pavilion army invaded, what are the plans of Marshal Darius?" ”

The messenger's attendant replied, "General Darius is quelling the rebellion, and I am afraid that he will not be able to solve it for the time being." ”

Tsukihime smiled, "Then what does he mean, isn't it just that we are here to wait for death?" ”

The attendant hurriedly reported, "There are still seven princely castles outside the city, and there are still two gods of war stationed there. ”

Tsukihime sighed, "It seems that we can only pin our hopes on the 'Red Spider' and the 'Golden Scorpion'. ”

.

When the abandoned capital was originally designed, in order to prevent foreign invasion, seven fortresses were built outside the city for the princes and princesses to live in, which can also be regarded as a line of defense. Unexpectedly, more than 50 princes and princesses were born, and in the end, they killed each other until only two people remained, which can be regarded as a great irony.

The army of the Red Pavilion had just approached the abandoned capital, and a long-lost figure stumbled into the Prince's Castle, "Below is Zahir, the squad leader under the command of General Soltu, the Golden Scorpion, and there is an urgent military request to see you!" ”

In the Prince's Castle, in the spacious dining room, the two generals are sitting peacefully in their chairs, sipping delicious wine and food.

When a drunken and red-faced general heard the announcement, his beard shook with laughter, "Yo yo yo, look at it, look at it, your deserter actually came back?" ”

Another diminutive general heard Zahir's voice, raised his eyes, and sneered, "You still have the face to come back?" ”

He just wanted to reprimand his subordinates and drag out this deserted Zahir out and beat him with hundreds of whips, but when he looked up, he saw that Zahir in front of him was already unkempt and bruised, and he had obviously escaped from the disastrous defeat of the chaotic army.

"Useless stuff." The golden scorpion Soltu scolded, "I thought that you could have such a high degree of prosperity with the apprentice of the Protector of the Great Mage, and you would give me such a set of virtues. It's a shame for me to be a golden scorpion. ”

The red spider next to him was still drinking desperately, and drunkenly said to others, "Have you seen clearly?" Follow a few of us, what kind of day are you enjoying? If you think we've done you wrong, just like her, go out and have a look. ”

Zahir kept slapping himself at the moment, admitting his mistake again and again.

The golden scorpion suddenly threw a pitch-black horsewhip in his hand, and the tentacles rolled Zahir to him, grabbed her hair with his left hand, and glared at him viciously: "You'd better tell me honestly, have you ever slept with that demon person?" ”

Zahir was horrified, "No...... There is no ......"

The red spider patted her thigh and smiled, "Big brother asked so, is it possible that she can still admit it?" ”

The golden scorpion's eyes sank, "Call a few female soldiers over." ”

Seven or eight strong warriors came to the hall at once, dragged Zahir behind the screen, ripped off her underwear, split her legs, and examined her carefully.

Zahir was ashamed and hurt, but he didn't dare to scream, so he could only be at their mercy.

After checking for a while, several female soldiers came up and reported, "General, she is still a place." ”

The golden scorpion's face softened a little, "The person who hates the demons the most in my life, since I haven't had an affair with the demons, I'll spare her life." Bandage her and lock her up. After the injury is healed, he will be sent to the generalissimo for questioning. ”

Thanks to Zahir being a woman, he can still test it, if it were a man, I am afraid that he would have been hacked to death by him indiscriminately.

The female soldiers stumbled back with Zahir, but the golden scorpion sank his face again: "The bandits of the Red Pavilion are menacing, it seems that they should not be underestimated." "A military general of short stature,

The red spider shook and was: "Oh, look at the appearance of the eldest brother, is he afraid?" “

"Afraid? How could I be afraid, it seemed to me that the army was no different from a flock of chickens and ducks, and it only took a knife to slaughter them. The Golden Scorpion frowned, "It's just that the Generalissimo ordered us to hold on here......"

Red Spider said drunkenly, "Big brother thinks there's something wrong?" ”

"No." The Golden Scorpion muttered, "We are stationed in the castle of the Third Prince Eichna, and the walls are in disrepair. Outside, there is a large plain, and if you set up siege equipment, it won't last long. ”

Red Spider laughed, "I have an idea, I wonder if my eldest brother would like to hear it?" ”

The golden scorpion nodded.

Red Spider pointed out the window, "The Sharp Claw Level of the northern thirty grids, which I built with my own hands, is extremely strong, and if we send five thousand people to garrison it, it will definitely be unbreakable." At that time, the Red Pavilion army will only be able to detour around the Tooth Canyon. ”

The golden scorpion's eyes lit up: "Fangs Canyon, the road there is narrow, and no matter how strong the Red Pavilion bandit army is, it is difficult to do anything." I will personally mention that 10,000 soldiers are stationed there, and if they come to me, I will kill one!" ”

"Hahaha, kill that group of waste, why do you need the eldest brother to do it himself." Red Spider smiled, "This kind of trivial matter, just let me do it." ”

With that, he clapped his hands, and five soldiers stepped forward with sledgehammers on their shoulders.

This five-shaped hammer is a formidable weapon. Its head is in the shape of a giant spider, with a pair of compound eyes that glow with an evil light; The five edges are inlaid with wolf's fangs, ready to tear apart their prey.

The red spider lifted the sledgehammer with one hand, looked at the golden scorpion and said, "Look at my five-shaped hammer, is it powerful enough?" ”

The golden scorpion also laughed, "Since you go, then this merit will be recorded on your head." ”

After that, the Golden Scorpion ordered 10,000 horses and arranged two lieutenant generals to let the Red Spider lead the army to the Sharp Tooth Canyon to station.

The Red Spider led the army to the Fangs Canyon overnight, and as soon as he set up camp, he heard someone coming from the opposite side to call for battle.

Someone came to call for battle so soon? This came as a surprise to the spider spider.

"Impossible. How did those guys get here so quickly? They should go to the Talon level first. The Red Spider muttered to herself, "Could those people be unpredictable?" Before you can get past it, you know that the Talon Fortress has been sealed by us? ”

In fact, Lydia really didn't know what was going on, because the person who came was not the Red Pavilion army at all.

The comer's name was Calvin, and he was a shrewd and cunning businessman. He is also one of the few remaining lords in the Wild Sand Empire.

This can be seen in his weapons: his weapon is a long sword encrusted with gems, and the hilt is inlaid with a large ruby that emits an alluring light. With such a rich weapon, it is believed that his army is also quite extravagant.

Indeed, his army consisted of a group of mercenaries who wore a variety of armor and armed with weapons of varying lengths, and looked imposing. Alpacas and chocobos hissed and made deafening sounds.
