Chapter 575: The Moon Legion
PS: The war is about to break out, will the war really kill people? This chapter will open the recovery of the seventeen states of Youhai, as for whether it will be the same killing as the thirteen mountains of Yunfeng?
At the same time, the head of the Yu family in Xinyu City, the Generalissimo of Imperial Zhenxi, that is, Yu Yixuan's father, Duke Yuanren, had received a secret letter from Emperor Bixia. This secret letter was personally delivered by Emperor Bixia's first guard, the chief court saint demon Daogar. It is stamped with the double seals of Emperor Bixia and Murong Meteor, the first marshal of the empire, and the military intelligence level is top secret.
After reading the secret letter, under the supervision of the Holy Demon Guide, Yu Yuanren burned the secret letter, and then set about to carry out the order of Emperor Bixia. The entire Xinyu City is like an old machine that has not been touched for many years, and with this secret letter, it begins to start slowly.
The Moon Army under the command of Marshal Yu Yuanren in the west, that is, the three main army corps in the west, the Twilight Moon, the Jingyue Army, and the Burning Moon Army, with nearly 600,000 troops, have been quietly preparing for the expedition, and various logistical supplies have begun to be quietly distributed. The clouds of war loom over this fertile land, shrouding the seventeen states of the Hidden Sea.
From the Tianyan Empire to the Tianlong Empire, the nearest distance is to pass through the Seventeen Prefectures of the Hidden Sea, and after passing through the Seventeen Prefectures of the Hidden Sea, enter the Logins Plateau, the highest in the mainland, and then you can cross the Morrison Grand Canyon of the Logins Plateau and go directly to the Celestial Dragon Empire.
Of course, you can also pass through the territory of the Heavenly Saint Empire, cross the Morganris Corridor in the north of the Bone Wasteland, and go straight to the Celestial Dragon Empire. However, it was necessary to inform the southern border guards of the Heavenly Saint Empire, and the procedures were much more complicated.
Shangguan Wenbo, as the left minister of the empire, is also the general leader of the Tianyan Empire's participating team. It has the absolute right to speak. The Ten Peerless Holy Emperors, as Shangguan Wenbo's deputy, mainly protected many geniuses. Shocking some of the little guys. Of course, his opinion. Shangguan Wenbo also has to listen to it somewhat.
In order to ensure everyone's safety, Shangguan Wenbo prepared to enter the Heavenly Saint Empire first, and detour from the Heavenly Saint Empire to Tianlong. There were fewer demonic beasts on this road, and it was relatively much safer, but when they informed the border guards of the Heavenly Saint Empire that they wanted to pass, they were sternly refused.
The Southern Legion of the Heavenly Saint Empire has received news that Xinyu City is mobilizing troops on a large scale. And several legions are also moving closer to Xinyu City. All this shows that the deployment of troops is not a simple change of guard, but a precursor to war. Therefore, Shangguan Wenbo's request to pass through the Heavenly Saint Empire was rejected.
Now, they have to take a recourse through the Seventeen States of the Sea and then cross the Loggins Plateau. The Seventeen Prefectures of Youhai are not very strict in population control, as long as you have the ability, you can survive here. Besides, there are so many murderers and robbers here that they can't be managed. It's better to leave it alone.
Murong Yu said goodbye to his parents and went all the way to the west, and his speed was exerted to the extreme. He knew very well in his heart that it would only take a few days to conquer the Seventeen Prefectures of the Hidden Sea. However, it is very troublesome to defend the seventeen states of the hidden sea. For the Seventeen Prefectures of Youhai, he already has a lot of methods. After thinking about it a few times, Murong Yu decided to use the simplest. The most effective way.
Fifty miles west of Xinyu City, the main camp of the three legions in the west. It is also the nest of Yu Yuanren, the generalissimo of Zhenxi of the Western Route Army. From a distance, there are dense flags, swords, and guards with spears everywhere. Large and small, scattered military camps everywhere, the sound of Jin Ge and shouts are endless.
Several soldiers in the vicinity were sharpening their swords, and the human-driven sharpening roller rotated rapidly, and one soldier pulled out his own combat knife and gently brought the blade of the broadsword closer to the roller. The wheels suddenly burst into sparks, like fireworks blooming under the night sky.
The war knife slowly advanced forward, and then slowly stretched backwards, and after several sharpenings, the original dull color of the broadsword seemed to be activated, shining with a cold light. The polished warrior picked it up and looked at it carefully, put it on again, and polished it again before contentedly inserting the knife back into its scabbard.
Not far away, several soldiers were wearing heavy armor, and the giant spears next to them showed that they were hoplites. Heavy armor with spears, plus the dash of the warhorse, can exert a powerful attack power on the battlefield.
In front of the barracks on the other side, several guys with quivers on their backs were opening their bows and pulling strings, and the tooth-sore "boom" sound kept coming. The bow and arrow, which had not been used for a long time, seemed to have not stretched its body for a long time, and between the plucking of the bowstring, it trembled and buzzed.
In the four large squares in the distance, many soldiers are practicing formations, and you come and go, so lively.
"Got it" The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, causing all the soldiers to look sideways.
Three golden-horned gale, abundant in the west, rushed into the camp like a whirlwind.
At the head of the group was the commander of the Twilight Legion, Gotha Robert, who was dressed in black refined armor and a purple and gold helmet, and was strong and ligated, like a violent bear in the prime of life. It is said that this person has commanded several major battles against the Seventeen Prefectures of the Hidden Sea, and has achieved good results.
The three alliances of the Seventeen Prefectures of Youhai nominally have a certain amount of power, but it is external, and once their own people fight, it will be a melee. Many kingdoms and principalities in the past had to perish a few after a few years, and then a few more would arise.
For the Tianyan Empire, several kingdoms and principalities in the Seventeen Prefectures of the Hidden Sea have made up their minds and want to expand their territory to the east. At this time, the Tianyan Empire generally took a defensive position and counterattacked the enemy, and once the enemy was not an opponent, it would naturally send someone to make peace.
Since the empire has never considered annexing the seventeen states of Youhai strategically, there are many small wars, and there are not many big wars. General Gotha commanded counterattacks, and he was promoted to corps commander after performing well.
The second is the commander of the Pure Moon Legion, known as the Black Panther Pan Leopard, who is estimated to be thirty-five, six, or five short in stature, dressed in black armor, and carrying two shiny battle axes behind him.
It is said that this person is extremely fast, like a crazy leopard on the battlefield, and between a few entries and exits, taking the head of the enemy general is like picking up something. He mainly faces the battles of the Heavenly Saint Empire, and is a brave and warlike general, and the border disputes between the two empires, or bumps, are all solved by him.
Zuihou is the leader of the Burning Moon Legion, Hewah Walter, a fire archmage with a team of 10,000 magicians under his command. He usually doesn't shoot, and once he plays, it's definitely because the enemy is too strong. In his army of magicians, magicians of all sizes will perform fire magic.
Wherever the fire magic passed, everything was incinerated without leaving a trace, hence the name of the legion. He was clad in a long red magic robe, and his eyes shone with a fiery red bloodthirsty light.
The commanders of the three legions arrived at the same time, and the Imperial soldiers knew that something unusual was about to happen. Coupled with the top-down mobilization of combat readiness and sharpening their equipment, they had a premonition that a storm was coming.
In the middle of the camp is a three-story small building, this small building is the headquarters of Western Marshal Yu Yuanren, usually, this old duke usually stays in Xinyu City to enjoy happiness, but usually comes to deal with some simple military affairs.
After receiving a secret letter from Emperor Bixia, the old duke could no longer sit still. He issued an order overnight to the commanders of the three main army corps to immediately come to see him, and he himself returned to this headquarters early in the morning.
On the third floor of the small building, in the spacious and bright command hall, the most obvious thing is a black oak table about five meters long and three meters wide, and on the table is the sand table of the entire military area. There was not a single chair in the room, and according to the old duke's words, a soldier should have a military style, and the chair was only for the ministers to sit on.
No matter how long the meeting was held here, the old duke always straightened his waist, in fact, he himself had already entered the holy level, and a saint-level powerhouse could naturally withstand standing for a long time.
On the middle wall of the council hall hangs an up-to-date map of the empire's borders. The Thirteen Ridges of Yunfeng on the drawing had been included in the territory of the Tianyan Empire, and just now, the old duke stood alone in front of this map and stood silently for ten minutes without saying a word.
The two major guards behind him knew that the old duke's heart was definitely not at peace. Now that the empire has leveled the Thirteen Mountains of Yunfeng, is the next step to take the Seventeen Prefectures of the Hidden Sea?
The three legion commanders went straight up to the third floor, and under the signal of the old duke's Praetorian Guard, the three mermaids rushed in, lined up, and knelt down on one knee at the same time: "I've seen Lord Marshal!"
Yu Yuanren, who was staring at the sand table, did not raise his head, but just waved his hand and signaled the three of them to be exempt. Instead of wearing his favorite comfortable robes today, he was wearing a swarthy armor, and if he had put on a helmet and carried a spear, he would have gone straight to the battlefield.
He was not very tall, his figure was not very burly, his thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his eyes were like a lightning bolt in the night, instantly hitting the three army commanders, causing the three of them to shiver involuntarily.
Looking at the three legion commanders he had personally promoted, the old duke beckoned, motioned for the three of them to step forward, and at the same time swept his gaze to the two people at the door. These two were the commanders of the Marshal's Praetorian Guard, and they were the personal guards of the old duke, and the two immediately understood, both withdrew, and closed the door.
Gotha was the commander of the old legion, and he had great achievements, he was the first to walk into the sand table, glanced at the sand table that was too familiar to be familiar, and asked in a low voice: "I don't know what happened to Lord Marshal in such a hurry?"
There was a wave of space in the hall, and a layer of transparent enchantment had been laid down, and the old duke who had laid down the enchantment looked at the three of them and said with a smile: "Gotha, have you gained weight again!"
General Gotha smiled awkwardly and showed a silly smile: "Lord Marshal, there is nothing to do during this time, and I eat well and sleep soundly, and I am estimated to have grown a few catties of meat." ”
General Pan Bao casually pinched General Gotha's arm, compared it with his own, and said with a smile: "It seems to be more than a few catties of meat." ”
Gotha waved his hand, slapped Pan Leopard's hand, and scolded with a smile: "Black Panther, I think you have lost weight." (To be continued......)
