Chapter Ninety-One: The Old Demon Comes Out
In the entire Black Pupil Empire, the Grand Duke of the North is a pivotal position.
The hereditary Grand Duke of the North, the Li family, is actually a little out of step with the central part of the empire.
The army, magistrates, finance, taxation, justice, etc., were all distinguished from the empire, and if it were not for the fact that each generation of grand dukes had to go to the imperial capital to accept the emperor's canonization, this could already be regarded as a separate country.
Different from the corruption, depravity and twilight of the areas directly under the jurisdiction of the empire, under the influence of some unrealistic ambitions in the hearts of the northern grand dukes in the past dynasties, the northern grand dukes directly governed the territory, the government is much clearer, and the combat effectiveness of the army is also guaranteed to a certain extent.
"My lord, this treasure is a pearl in our hands, and only when adults get it can they complement each other. After Li Mu personally served Mo Liuqi a cup of tea, he cautiously flattered him.
"Well, Li Mu, I know your intentions. This Black Pupil Empire really needs to change the family to the royal family, and the idiots in the Hades Temple are not to worry about it at all. With one hand on the Yin Soul Ball and attaching the divine thoughts, Mo Liuqi was talking nonsense without sincerity.
"Lord Xie's support, since the Li family pastored, they will definitely build temples everywhere in the Black Pupil Empire, worship the gods of the adults, and promote faith. This time, Li Mu was bleeding profusely, and finally took out a real sentence from Mo Liuqi's mouth, and he was immediately overjoyed, and he hurriedly promised to win over Mo Liuqi that he had already thought about.
Zheng Feng is a god-level powerhouse, which has long been no secret in Black Pupil Star. And Zheng Fengdu banned the Temple of the Underworld in the Fengdu Empire, and trumpeted his belief in the Fengdu Emperor, which was not a secret in the high-level of the two empires.
Although he didn't understand what effect these beliefs had on god-level powerhouses, Li Mu at least knew that god-level powerhouses attached great importance to promoting their own beliefs, and with this understanding, he could use this promise as a hole card to move Mo Liuqi's heart.
The hard work paid off, the Yin Soul Ball and the spread of faith, these two things really made Mo Liuqi see Li Mu's sincerity, and he was indeed moved.
Putting away the Yin Soul Ball, which had been imprinted with his soul mark, Mo Liuqi raised his head, which had been hanging down. The head that was originally hidden by the cloak appeared in front of Li Mu's eyes, it was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything, only two hollows flashed with a strange red flame, and in a flash, Mo Liuqi's voice also came out.
"Don't forget your promise today, Li Mu. As long as the Li royal family has been worshipping this seat, this seat can ensure the continuation of the Li dynasty. ”
Suppressing the panic that had just seen Mo Liuqi's strange face, Li Mu happily agreed, and even almost planned to swear by the god of the underworld. Later, he remembered to himself that the strong man in front of him was robbing the belief of the god of the underworld, and he was afraid that he would not care too much about the god of the underworld.
"My lord, I want to wait until the Imperial Capital City is captured by the Fengdu people before launching an attack and driving the Fengdu people out of the empire. Now let Zheng Fengdu and the Hades Temple fight to the death, and then ask the adults to take action. ”
"You're thinking well, but it doesn't seem like a hassle in my seat. That Zheng Feng is only a new god-level for a thousand years, and the Black Pupil Empire's Hades Temple does not even have a god-level powerhouse, and the small little bit of the Mostek family can't support a top-level force. In my eyes, these people are not to be worried. ”
"What do you mean?" Li Mu's expression perked up, and he had already roughly guessed Mo Liuqi's opinion in his heart, but he still asked tentatively.
"Show the carriage and horses, fight with them with great fanfare, and completely establish the prestige of the new empire!" Mo Liuqi didn't care about his temptation, and said domineeringly.
He has this qualification, and he also has the confidence to say so.
Who is he, Mo Liuqi, who is a predator who has already been promoted to a god-level powerhouse in the last God War. Even in the underworld, except for a few big forces, such as Prince Theodore, who would dare not give face when others saw him.
Now out of the underworld, he is even more at home.
In this Black Pupil Star, and even in the star field ruled by the Mostek family, he is the one who stands at the pinnacle, only others are afraid of him, and there is no saying that he is afraid of others.
"My lord, although the army under the control of the imperial family suffered heavy losses in the early stage, the reinforcements they mobilized from the west and south can gather near the imperial capital to confront the Fengdu Empire at this time. Due to domestic changes, the Fengdu Empire recently mobilized several legions to return to China, but they still have more than 1.5 million troops on the imperial battlefield.
If we raise an anti-flag at this time, needless to say, the empire will definitely regard the army in my northern region as a mortal enemy. If the Fengdu Empire is worried about causing the powerful factions within the empire to follow suit and stand on their own feet, interrupting their plans to quickly conquer the empire, they will also make us the target of the first round of attacks. Although our northern army is brave and good at fighting, it is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of the number of troops, and its prospects are worrying!
My lord, it is better to slow down a little longer, and I will strive to issue a mobilization order immediately, and then recruit and form a few more legions. If we don't want the new legion to be able to fight the enemy, at least we can defend the important places in the north and relieve the veterans from the task of guarding the place, so that the number of troops that can be used to fight the deer can be doubled immediately, and we have a million army, so we don't need to worry about other problems!?"
Li Mu is ambitious, but it doesn't mean that he is arrogant. At present, on the front line of the Tuotuo River, his three army corps in the northern region of 600,000 men and horses are facing off against the Fengdu Imperial army. If the inland town guard corps is transferred out, it will suddenly be able to have a million troops on the front line. At that time, there were high-end forces such as Lord Mo Liuqi, and there were enough ordinary legions below, standing in the Black Pupil Empire, he was already qualified to win the emperor's throne.
"Hey, there's no need to be so troublesome, I'm really anxious about the twists and turns of you mortals. Mo Liuqi was able to listen patiently to his chatter, all for the sake of the face of the Yin Soul Sphere. Seeing that he looked like he was suffering from gains and losses, he stood up directly with a sneer, walked to the big tent, pointed to the Fengdu camp on the other side of the river, and said disdainfully: "Do you know about the divine war?"
Li Mu was stunned, the history of the Divine War was too long, even if the Black Pupil Royal Family was old enough, now there are only a few words in the classics. He knew that he knew, but he didn't understand what the adults meant by asking, so he subconsciously shook his head.
"Snort!" Mo Liuqi sneered again, and then said to himself: "The Divine War is a war that broke out between the Hades God Clan, the Light God Race, and the Dark God Race. Ten thousand years ago, this divine war went forward, and it lasted for at least 10,000 years. In the war of the gods, it is often the fight of millions, tens of millions, and even hundreds of millions of troops of vassal races under the command of the three major god races. At that time, with your low-end combat power, it only took a strong man to flick his fingers to kill you completely. ”
At this point, he paused, as if in a memory.
After a long time, he came back to his senses, shook his head, and then pointed his finger at the Fengdu camp on the other side of the river, and said: "The reason why this seat is saying this is to tell you that in such an unpopular war, this seat alone is enough to reach millions of troops. Opposite these ants, it is effortless to kill them. Of course, you are also ants, but you are lucky to be favored by this seat!
Although he was called an ant, he was slightly unhappy in his heart, but Li Mu's city was very deep, and when he heard this, he nodded, and complimented Mo Liuqi with a sycophant look, as if he didn't care about his sneer.
Mo Liuqi nodded slightly in his heart, and he appreciated the ambitious Grand Duke Li Mu in front of him more and more.
"Tomorrow, when the battle to cross the river is launched, you just need to organize the army to cross the river, and the other Qiē will be arranged for you, which will also be counted as the reward for this Yin Soul Ball. Waving his hand, Mo Liuqi didn't care about sending Li Mu away.
......
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The next morning, after burying the pot and cooking a full meal, the three legions under the command of the Northern Grand Duke of the Black Pupil Empire sounded with the sound of military drums, and the excited Fengdu army hurriedly assembled.
"Hurry up, the black-pupiled people are going to cross the river!
"The black-eyed man of the dog day, we haven't even eaten the rebellion yet!"
"Shoot arrows fiercely in a while, and kill these damn black-eyed pigs!"
......
In the Fengdu military camp, which was caught off guard by the sudden attack of the Northern Army, there were chaotic shouts and curses.
The three corps on the north bank at this time were the first, second, and third garrison corps of the north. During this time, I have been preparing for the battle of crossing the river, so after receiving the order yesterday, I was able to assemble so quickly and set up a formation, and the team continued to spread along the bank of the Tuotuo River on the north bank of the Tuotuo River, which was nearly three miles wide.
There was no order to collect ferries or build bamboo rafts, but only ordered the baggage soldiers of each corps to prepare tools for erecting pontoon bridges and stand by at the front of the three corps.
The generals of the three corps were completely confused by the Grand Duke's order, what did this mean, did they wait for the Fengdu people on the other side to retreat, or to die violently!? This is simply a joke.
The result was that they guessed correctly, Mo Liuqi asked Li Mu to arrange it like this, that is, to wait for the Fengdu army on the opposite side to die violently, and then cross the Tuotuo River safely without any danger or danger, they only need to treat it as a normal march.
"Plague Technique!"
There was a richly decorated four-wheeled carriage beside Li Mu, and after his army was ready, he heard a faint incantation sound in the carriage, and then a little black light was thrown straight into the Fengdu army on the opposite bank through the carriage wall.
The Plague Technique is a group attack spell that belongs to the Law of Death. It doesn't work against the undead and some races with strong immunity, but it works surprisingly well against normal creatures.
If it is used by ordinary magicians, it may not be of great use, after all, the strength of the two sides is about the same, and they are both studying the energy of the law of death and destruction, knowing themselves and knowing each other.
But Mo Liuqi is a necromancer, and even if he casts a simple spell, it is not something that ordinary people can resist.
"Ah......h
"Uh......"
As soon as the black mang pounced, a series of miserable howls sounded on the opposite bank. With such a tragic scene, the sergeants of the Northern Corps on this side of the river bank were also silent, and they only felt that their heads were cold.
