Kong Ming looked at the ice wall a lot higher, already fifty meters high, which could slightly block the eyes of the people who looked at Taicheng, and in the past few days, the mercenary army and the Ha Jing army have been fighting non-stop archers, both sides have gains and losses, but the mercenary army side has suffered a little loss because of the low terrain, and the mercenary army's side has suffered a lot of casualties, but they are all within the tolerable range, and they are not too clear about the losses of the Harvey army, but they know that there are many big archers and senior archers who were killed by the mercenary army.

"It's more than fifty meters, the car, have they all done as arranged?" Kong Ming asked.

"Commander, the canal behind the ice wall has been completely built around Taicheng, fifty meters wide and thirty meters deep, enough to provide all the corps with the water they need. And the closer you are to Matsue, the wider the canal becomes. Most of the water used to build the Ice City now comes from canals. Che replied from the side.

"Hehe, Alexander must not have imagined that we were not going to build a row of walls, but to build an ice city. Once they discover the secret, they must have a lot of expressions. Wei Qian also said on the side.

Yes, Kong Ming didn't just want to make an ice wall to encircle Taicheng at the beginning, so that he was condescending, and he could attack with a bow and arrow to press the enemy on his head, which was convenient for the mercenary army to attack, but in the past few days, as the project progressed, Kong Ming found that once the gap between the two was filled, then the enemy's passive magic array would be equivalent to being built in vain, and once the mercenary army's territory was higher than the high wall of Taicheng, then the active magic array would be equivalent to being half useless. It's just that this idea was slowly formed after the construction of the ice wall, and only a few people knew about it, and now the vast majority of people thought that the ice wall was going to be built to attack from a high position.

"What's the reaction of the Fifth Legion?" Kong Ming looked at Taicheng in the distance, and couldn't see it very clearly because of the constant light snow. But a huge silhouette was still visible, and I didn't know how many lives were going to be devoured here.

"It's still the same, they're still harassing our progress with arrows, and there's no other special response. Che replied.

"No anomaly is the biggest anomaly, so be more aware of what's going on around us. If I'm not mistaken, Alexander should have come to Taicheng, and he can't rest assured that he has the Fifth Legion with him. And I think they should continue to strengthen the strength of Taicheng, and among them should be mainly masters, only in this way, in the case of their insufficient numbers. Make up for it with quality. We can't let them feel that way. Che borrowed to send some news to the other mercenaries who did not participate in this battle, so that they could keep attacking other cities. Kong Ming said after pondering for a moment.

"Let them attack there? You know, we have taken down 300 kilometers on both sides of the Songjiang River. Wei Qian asked on the side, Che Yu also looked at Kong Ming, very strange why Kong Ming would say such a sentence. You must know that nearly half of the mercenary army is now concentrated on the Taicheng side, while the other mercenary troops who did not participate in the war are resting in various places. Watch the battle unfold. And Gangnam. The Snow Wolf Mercenary Army abandoned Wencheng and used a small number of troops to constantly monitor the movements of the Sixth and Eighth Legions in various places.

"There are more than 300 kilometers on both sides of the Songjiang River, make some news, let them cross the river, launch an attack on other Harvey cities, and sue them. We have dragged the Fifth Army for them now, and we will drag the Sixth and Eighth Army Corps in the future, so that they can attack and occupy them boldly and boldly. To do what they want to do, of course, this qiē has nothing to do with us, and we will not divide these things with them, and do it according to the rules of mercenaries. Kong Ming said.

"Commander, isn't it too generous for us to be like this, you know, it's enough for us to hold back a Fifth Legion, and we also have to help them hold off the Sixth and Eighth Legions, so that we can do the most and get the least things, it's not cost-effective. Che leaned on the side and complained.

"Hehe, do you think that if we don't say it, the Harvey Empire will let us go? You must know that no matter whether we say it or not, the first thing they want to do is to destroy our snow wolf mercenary army, and once we are destroyed, we will go to other mercenary armies next, so now the other mercenary armies are watching our battle with the Harvey Empire, in fact, they are watching the wind, once we lose, they will immediately return to the land of chaos, but once we succeed, they will take advantage of the great loss of our forces to grab things in front of us, they are the grass on the wall, which side of the wind is big. So we can't let them be idle here now, let them go to fight and share some of the burden for us, otherwise, once the forces of the Harvey Empire are pressed on our side, then defeat is just a matter of early time. Kong Ming sighed, Alexander, the pressure is great, if this is not the case, who is willing to share their own territory with others?

"Then I'll let out the wind right away and get them moving. Che Yu said.

"Alas, let the other mercenary commanders say the same, this will be a little more certain, and the effect will be better. Kong Ming added.

"Commander, this is a recipe for disaster!" Wei Qian said on the side.

"There is no way, sometimes, the outcome of the battle is still decided outside the battle, if we don't do this, we can't afford to lose in continuous battles, not to mention that once they move, then it's Alexander, not us, because their sixth and eighth legions can't only deal with us, and it is true that they have to add other mercenary armies. Kong Ming said.

"Will they really listen to us?" asked Che again.

"They won't listen to us, but the interests there are worth it, and with us here, at least they won't be in much danger, and once we cross it, they will get information from all directions as soon as possible, and then decide to go and stay. It's all a conflict of interests, so why not listen to it. Kong Ming sighed.

A day later, many mercenary armies that had not participated in the battle of Taicheng began to move southward, and even a few pure cavalry teams directly crossed the Songjiang River and headed south, along both sides of the river, towards the cities on both sides.

"Commander, according to reliable sources. A number of mercenaries crossed the Songjiang River and marched along the banks of the Songjiang River towards our cities. A staff officer reported to Alexander and Zhang Yiming, who were eating. Alexander demanded that all emergency military intelligence be reported to him as soon as possible, no matter what he was doing, military intelligence first.

"How many people are there?" asked Zhang Yiming. As Alexander's nemesis, he knew what role he was supposed to play.

"The exact number is unknown, but according to the observation of scouts, it is not less than 300,000, and this is probably the most conservative estimate. The staff officer said.

"Is there a route and number for their Gu Hugh?" asked Alexander, with a meal in his mouth.

Hear this. The staff officer walked to the front of the map, took out a pen from the side, put the information in his hand, and drew on the map while facing the information. While saying, "There is an army of mercenaries called Wind Banner, about 100,000 people. Along the south bank of the Songjiang River. Heading east, they were all cavalry, with a handful of demon cavalry. An army of mercenaries called Hailang, infantry, was marching east along the south bank of the Songjiang River, according to the original information. This mercenary army numbered at least 30,000 men, and certainly more now, but the number is unknown. An army of mercenaries called the Skeletons, a mixed infantry and cavalry class. They were marching west along the south bank of the Songjiang River, and a month ago intelligence had indicated that they had eighty thousand men, of which thirty thousand were cavalry, and now from the intelligence of the scouts it was indicated that they should be no less than one hundred thousand......"

"Do you know why they are collectively marching towards various cities on the south bank of the Songjiang River?" Zhang Yiming asked. It was a strange and sudden thing, and there was no information that they would do it, but they all did the same thing at the same time, and those who didn't start may be watching or preparing to act.

"According to reliable intelligence, it is because the commander of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army, Kong Ming, said to all the mercenary army commanders: There are more than three hundred kilometers on both sides of the Songjiang River, let them cross the river, launch an attack on other Harvey cities, and tell them that we have dragged the Fifth Army for them now, and we will drag the Sixth Army in the future. The Eighth Legion, let them rest assured to attack boldly, to occupy, to do what they want to do, of course, this qiē has nothing to do with us, and we will not divide these things with them, and do it according to the rules of mercenaries. The staff officer said.

"It's really a difficult guy, I didn't expect him to come to such a move, it seems that we underestimate this opponent. Alexander laughed.

"It's really a difficult guy, but they also underestimate the power of our city defense army, you must know that there is a city, most of them have mobilized no less than 50,000 troops, they are not snow wolf mercenary army, with such a powerful attack power, I think these guys will definitely suffer a lot of losses, I really think of myself as Kongming." Kittens and puppies also come to join in the fun. Zhang Yiming didn't have a good air.

"Kong Ming is just going to use these kittens and puppies to distract us and delay the march of our Sixth and Eighth Legions, thinking that he is going to miscalculate, I didn't expect that we would have been ready for a long time. Haha! Reporting this situation to the imperial capital made them nervous and nervous. Alexander said.

Snow Wolf Mercenary Army Headquarters.

"Kong Ming, if their cities in all directions are ready, can those mercenary troops take them down?" Yi Yiyi had some different words for Kong Ming's hand, you must know that those people are different from the Snow Wolf mercenary army, many of them have not experienced siege battles, and they are still able to deal with the small towns defended by a few people, but they are a little powerless to deal with the tens of thousands of Harvey City Defenses.

"You underestimate them too much, maybe they will suffer some small losses when they just go, but they will take advantage of them in the end. Kong Ming smiled.

"Why?"

"Don't underestimate their intelligence, there are so many people who can become the leader of a mercenary army, and they are not comparable to those who are used to being pampered and used to the city defense army. You must know that fighting a war is not a statistical statistic, whoever has good weapons, who has more people, and who has a strong defense, who can win the war, after all, these must be operated and carried out by people, and the victory or defeat of the war is determined by people. Kong Ming said.

Three days later, more than 50 mercenary armies of more than 2 million people rushed towards Harvey City in all directions, and after this information was transmitted to the Harvey Imperial Palace, all the people changed color, you know, more than 2 million troops, even the Harvey Empire can't get together so many people at once, how can there be so many people in the mercenary army? Most of these mercenary armies were newly recruited after the mercenary army entered the northeast, of course, some were voluntary, some were forced, but after all, they got together so many people, it can be said that almost all the troops in the northeast of the Harvey Empire were drained.

"Talent, why didn't I find this kid so capable when I taught him before?" said a military instructor from Huayuan Imperial Comprehensive University after knowing Kong Ming's strategy.

"If he could be next to me at that time, then I wouldn't be like this, it's a pity!" Xiang Tiancheng sighed as he looked at the sky in the Duke of Huayuan's mansion.

"Haha! God help me, Yun Haifeng, your family has a handsome talent. It really makes me feel so happy, hmm, I'll take a look at what to do? In this way, the army in the state of Chu was ordered to move forward and force Harvey's army there. Don't let them get out, and fight a few big battles if necessary. I'm going to make that old guy Harvey pay for the sleepless night. Ha ha. I'm getting more and more fond of this young man. Bursts of laughter came from the palace of the Huayuan Empire. There is no way, since Harvey's emperor took office, the surrounding areas have not stopped fighting, and now that the world has finally come to report, how can countries give up such a great opportunity?

All of a sudden, the smoke and dust of war continued to rise on all sides of the Harvey Empire. Not only that, but there are also many bandits in many places within the Harvey Empire who have raised their banners to rebel, and the turmoil in the Harvey Empire has finally come. The snow wolf mercenary army, the one with butterfly wings, finally set off a huge storm on the Huatian Continent.

In the palace of the Harvey Empire, the emperor looked down at the Wen Jiàn sent from all over the country, most of them were the news of the rebels from all over the country, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it turned out that he had already prepared to reform the interior of the empire, but the major nobles led by the queen opposed it, so that several reforms had to be stillborn, and now the contradictions accumulated by the Harvey Empire have finally been exposed under the guidance of the mercenary army in the chaotic land, and it is difficult to clean up for a while. After thinking about it, I really couldn't think of any way for a while, increasing the conscription, and increasing all kinds of taxes, so that no one sowed seeds in the spring, and the time of the year was delayed, and they would not give much to those nobles who asked for private troops, and the biggest drawback of the nobles' private army was that they did not obey the command, which may only be bad. Recruiting from among slaves, if you don't do well, you will rebel, and recruiting from among civilians, you must know that many rebels are from among civilians, what a headache.

"Everyone, it's time to talk about what to do, it's not a snow wolf mercenary army anymore, the surrounding countries are ready to move, most of the troops have pressed towards us, although they haven't moved, but my four legions can't move now, not only that, but the countries are still increasing their troops on the border, I think we have to wait until the problem in our northeast is solved to make them honest, and now they just want us to be unable to send troops to reinforce Taicheng. At this time, there were already rebellions of different kinds in 36 places across the country, the largest numbering more than 100,000 people, and the small ones numbering 30,000 or 40,000 people, constantly harassing our cities and towns everywhere.

"I think that now we have to take three steps, the first step, we have to add more aristocratic private armies on the border, under the command of each legion, to guard against the invasion of various countries; the second step, to recruit the private armies of the nobles in various places, to exterminate the rogue army in various places, this country has always had such a tradition, send capable cadres to lead the commander, these are not difficult to decide; the third step, which is the most urgent side to solve at present, is the rebellion of the mercenary army in the northeast, and among these mercenary armies, the snow wolf mercenary army is the most severely damaged, so it is necessary to take Taicheng as the main point to attract the attention of the snow wolf mercenary army and send a team of demon cavalry, imitating the snow wolf 100,000 demon cavalry, in a mobile state, to eliminate the other wandering mercenary army, and the sixth and eighth legions immediately quickly approached Taicheng to support the battle of the fifth legion at any time, and asked General Alexander to formulate a unified plan to annihilate the snow wolf mercenary army under Taicheng in one fell swoop. An old marshal from the military department said that this is an old marshal who has fought for decades for the Harvey Empire, and has absolute authority over the military.

"I think it's okay, but one more thing, when this time of national calamity, I propose to increase the rewards and punishments, so that those who lose the battle do not escape, and do not disappoint those who win the victory. One of them said, after he finished speaking, he lowered his head, but no matter who knew what he said, Zhao Wu sent 800,000 soldiers into the tiger's mouth, but he escaped back, and he was waiting for the verdict during this time, but because his sister has been interfering with the progress of this matter, so that those officials have no way to judge normally, even the emperor is in the twilight, hesitating, making many courtiers sad, and at this time to raise this matter is just a passing pass, but it can remind the emperor, why not?

"I think it's better to solve the problem of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army first, and the rest can be put aside first. A minister said that he had contributed to Zhao Wu's promotion at the beginning, and if he couldn't keep it now, all the investments in the early stage would disappear completely.

"I think we should discipline the army first, and then try to do anything else!" said one of the ministers.

......

In politics, interests always come first, although it seems that the shape of the Harvey Empire is not optimistic now, but those ministers are not in a hurry at all, because they know that no matter how big the turmoil is, it will be calmed down, as long as the pillars of the Harvey Empire are still there. If the god-level powerhouse is there, there won't be much of a problem. So in the midst of this quarrel, the issue of sending troops was delayed again, but after the court meeting, the emperor walked to a forbidden place in the backyard of the palace.

"Ancestor!" the Emperor said respectfully as he knelt down.

"Hehe, is the empire okay now?" a voice asked.

"It's not too good, there are mercenary forces again, and this time it's even bigger than the previous ones combined. The Emperor said.

"Oh! what's going on?"

"Among them, there is a commander of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army, called Kong Ming, who is a talent who uses soldiers, and defeats the strong with the weak one after another, defeating our army to the ground. The Emperor said truthfully.

"Well, you don't have to worry about this, I'll take a trip when I have a chance, and you can clean up the rest yourself. The voice said, as if it were a trifle.

"Yes, Ancestor, I wish Ancestor to transcend the limit of the ninth level as soon as possible and become a true powerhouse. "As an emperor of the empire, the emperor knows many unknown things, such as the ninth level is not really a god level, it is just a taboo for ordinary people.

The Snow Wolf Command of the Taicheng Mercenary Army, Kong Ming didn't know that he had been remembered by a god-level powerhouse, and now he was still watching the progress of Ice City. After more than ten days of work, with the help of the magician, the plan of the ice wall went quite smoothly, and now the city wall is more than 100 meters high, and as long as it looks like another ten days, it can be on par with Taicheng. At that time, Kongming's plan can be truly implemented.

"Commander, you see, there seem to be some people coming out of Taicheng, who seem to be magicians. A magician next to him said to the magic mirror. Kong Ming walked over, and at this time he saw a team of magicians coming out of a city gate, compared to the two-hundred-meter-high Taicheng city wall, they were really too small, if it wasn't for the magic mirror to observe, Kong Ming really couldn't see that these were a group of magicians. At this time, there were many archers at the head of Taicheng City there to cover the actions of these magicians, and the arrows pressed the soldiers of the mercenary army to not raise their heads, and for a while everyone didn't know what these people were here for, only to see those magicians riding unicorns, quickly rushing out of the city gate, and when there were still a hundred meters away from the ice wall, all the people cast magic scrolls in different directions, and then immediately ran back to the city. So a stunned scene appeared, the distance between the two sides can reach more than a thousand meters, a huge wall of fire appeared at the foot of the ice wall, constantly burning, the flames rushing to the sky, impacting towards the ice wall, so that the thick ice wall, began to melt, thinking that the temperature of these magic is the high I want to be, after a while, I heard the sound of ice cracking, only to see a wall in a blink of an eye from the root to the end of the neck. (To be continued......)
