Volume Four, Volume 40, Chapter 22, The Beginning of Chaos
Time spent with family members at home always flies by, especially after the Chinese New Year. Before we know it, it’s late January. Zhang Tie has been at home for almost a month without even realizing it.
During this month, in addition to spending time with his family, Zhang Tie was also paying attention to the situation in the ice and snow wilderness.
For the Holy Light Empire, it is obviously not a good idea to go on an expedition to a place like the Ice and Snow Wasteland and send the fleet out in winter, because in winter, the two ports where the Holy Light Empire expedition fleet is going to stop for supplies along the way are already frozen.
This caused huge difficulties in supplying the expedition fleet. The ice and snow wasteland was in the far north of the edge of the Hawaiian subcontinent, close to a vast uninhabited ice field. Under the prevailing northwest wind in winter, the sea surface was rough, and the speed of the fleet traveling against the wind would be reduced.
Slow down, not to mention the possibility of encountering sea icebergs drifting down from the north. If it is night, as long as one is not careful, a drifting iceberg in the sea may severely damage or directly sink a warship.
.
The merchant ships and merchants of the Holy Kingdom of Iceland traveling to and from the Western Continent are closely watching the movements of the Holy Light Empire. After a large number of gold coins were sprinkled, the Holy Icelandic Kingdom's intelligence network in the Western Continent started operating at high speed. Almost every day, there were reports about the Holy Light Empire.
Intelligence from the expeditionary fleet converged on St. Petersburg.
Based on various information, High Priest Sarin judged that the Holy Light Empire's expedition fleet would be dispatched in mid-February or early March this year, and not later than late March.
In this way, Zhang Tie felt relieved. After completing the Earth Knight's Wheel-turning Ceremony, he still had enough time to deal with the crisis in the ice and snow wasteland.
What Zhang Tie is thinking about now is no longer whether he can defeat the Light Empire's expeditionary fleet. What he is thinking about is how to beat the Holy Light Empire so hard and frightened that all the Holy Light Empire's masters will never be able to fight again.
I don't dare to think about the Holy Kingdom of Iceland. Just mentioning the Holy Kingdom of Iceland will make those shepherds have a headache and feel guilty.
If this matter is not resolved this time, with the national power of the Holy Light Empire, even if one wave is repelled this time, there will be a second wave and a third wave in the future, and there will be endless troubles in the future.
Gulas and Dali had safely returned to the ice and snow wasteland a year ago. This time they came to Taixia, but they did not find the allies and backers they wanted. The main reason was that the wealthy families in Taixia had too much vision.
I'm picky, I wouldn't throw myself into a barren land like the ice and snow wasteland, and think of forming an alliance with a small country there. If it weren't for an occasion like the Wanbao Conference, Gulas and Dali came to Taixia,
I'm afraid they won't let the wealthy families in Taixia look at them. The source of madness that the two people brought to Taixia sold some, but not much. For many buyers, the so-called madness in the ice and snow wasteland
The source of this potion is actually just a better madness potion. At most, this potion has a longer acting time and can be used for life. But activating the power of this potion is not a simple matter, and not every warrior can
Activation, low-level warriors may have a need for the source of madness, but after advanced knights, such things do not have much meaning. In places like the Wanbao Conference, things that have little value to knights are difficult to excel.
.
Gulas and Dali did not bring back the strong allies that the Holy Kingdom of Iceland needed, but they did bring back news about Xuanyuan Hill and the Taixia rebellion.
The position of Taixia's chief minister was replaced by the Three Eyes Society (for people from other continents and subcontinents outside of Taixia, all human forces that have taken refuge in the demons can be generally called the Three Eyes Society. The so-called Tongtian Sect
, in the eyes of people from other continents, it is just another name for the power of the Three Eyes Society in Taixia. Although the names are different, but both sides are doing the same thing) lackeys infiltrated, and bloody disasters broke out across Taixia.
, this incident caused a huge shock in the Holy Kingdom of Iceland, let alone the Western Continent and other subcontinents. Even the High Priest Salin was very worried and asked Zhang Tie through the remote sensing crystal about the current situation of Taixia.
For people from other continents and subcontinents, the extremely powerful Taixia is a complex existence in the hearts of these people. Taixia's prosperity and power will make people from other continents and subcontinents envious, yearn for, even envy and hate.
But it is undeniable that Taixia and the Hua clan are the mainstay and the hope of the human race in the struggle between the human race and the demon clan. Any turmoil in Taixia can cause an uproar if it spreads to the outside world.
Ever since the Wangri Incident in Xuanyuan Hill, the people who felt the fear for the first time were not the Chinese in Taixia, but the upper-class figures from various continents and subcontinents outside Taixia. These people knew very well that if Taixia was in civil strife,
Collapse, then, in this holy war, they will definitely have no luck. This holy war is like a terrifying storm. Taixia is the largest human warship in this storm. If this largest
The human warships will be overturned and silenced. Then, the other small sampans will definitely be beaten to pieces by the huge waves in this terrifying storm. Without Taixia to resist the demons, the darkest days for the entire human race will be
will come.
How is the situation in Taixia?
This question was really difficult for Zhang Tie to answer. He didn't know how to introduce the situation at hand to Elder Shalin.
His personal situation is very good, it couldn't be better. He has advanced to the level of Earth Knight and has been cleared of wrongful accusations. He is famous all over the world. The power of the Zhang family is also booming. In addition to the full-effect potion, the Zhulong leader
High-energy alcohol that will bring great changes will soon be produced in China, and he has returned home to be with his family, enjoying the blessings of people and the happiness of family every day. His foundation in Taixia is becoming increasingly solid.
He has more and more friends. Forces such as Taixia's Guangnan Palace and Tianji Sect have become involved with him. He has personally killed the mastermind behind his frame and allowed him to make a huge fortune. Tongdang now has too much time to take care of himself.
, is fighting to death with the Tongtian Cult. It can be said that Zhang Tie's situation has never been so good since he advanced to knighthood, and he has never lived such a comfortable life. It can be said that Zhang Tie has now officially entered a new phase in his life.
The pinnacle is not an exaggeration.
Zhang Tie ushered in a new peak in his life, but the freezing coldness of the Third Holy War invaded the entire Taixia within just a few months.
Because of the arrival of winter, the pace of suppressing the Blood Man Rebellion in Taixia Prefecture, especially in the northern region, has temporarily slowed down. The Blood Men ravaging Taixia Prefecture are becoming more and more dispersed, and the Blood Man's activity range, area and damage have also been reduced.
getting bigger and bigger.
In December, the bloody rebellion in Taixia only affected sixty or seventy states, but in January, the entire Taixia, except for a few barren states and Xuanyuan Hills, had bloody rebellions in all states.
Traces of the Blood Man Rebellion are spreading throughout Taixia. Just before January 1, 904 in the Black Iron Calendar, the Blood Man Rebellion broke out in less than two months, causing 370 million deaths in Taixia.
Tens of thousands of casualties, and the number of casualties continues to expand every day. As for the total number of bloody people in Taixia Prefecture, preliminary estimates exceed 10 million. These 10 million bloody people, after more than a month of encirclement and suppression,
Although it is constantly decreasing, the remaining and surviving blood people are still causing killings and panic in various parts of Taixia every minute.
In such chaos, even Youzhou is not immune.
On January 3rd, while Zhang Tie was immersed in the New Year atmosphere at home, several groups of bloody people from Tongzhou had entered the Yangui Mountains and might have sneaked into Youzhou.
These groups of bloody men who entered the Yangui Mountains disappeared without a trace after bloodbathing the two small mountain villages in the Yangui Mountains. Orions who lived in Shanzhong discovered them when they were visiting relatives.
There were abnormalities in the two small mountain villages, so they quickly came out to report them.
Several groups of unknown numbers of bloody people may have entered Youzhou through the Yangui Mountains. Tensions have become tense in all parts of Youzhou, especially the garrisons in several cities near the Yangui Mountains have been mobilized. After receiving the news,
Zhang Tie's Zhulong Territory has also entered a state of martial law.
Zhang Tie was at home at the time and only found out after receiving the news report from Huaiyuantang.
Of course, also in the past few days of the Chinese New Year, along with this bad news came another "good news" related to the Blood Man. Zhang Tie asked his brother to find someone to build and place it near the gate of Tielong Zong.
The battle fort prison where the bloody men are imprisoned has been officially assembled and constructed.
This bloody prison was named the Demon-Suppressing Castle by Zhang Tie. The total number of bloody men that can be imprisoned in the entire Demon-Suppressing Castle is 200,000. The person responsible for building this battle fort prison is a large battle fort in Yanzhou, Taixia, which is responsible for such business.
The construction group, after my brother explained the need and readily paid 70% of the project price in advance, the battle fort construction group in Yanzhou completed the construction of the Demon Suppression Castle in the shortest time.
Zhang Tie has not seen the newly built Demon Suppressing Castle, but I heard it is larger than the Crystal Battle Castle that was there. After the Demon Suppressing Castle was built, it was the first one that Zhang Tie and the Golden Crow Business Group "acquired" during this period.
A group of 1,287 bloody men in total have been imprisoned in the Demon Suppression Castle, and are guarded by the Golden Crow Guards.
The Bloody Man Rebellion is raging in Taixia, and the backbone of Tongtian Sect's diehard loyalists who "created" these bloody men have disappeared in the past two months, except for a bunch of small fish and shrimps caught by Taixia Tingwei's Mansion
In addition to hiding or killing, those named knight-level masters of the Tongtian Sect who were wanted by the Tingwei Mansion, but very few were actually caught. Those people seemed to have disappeared, which made people a little uneasy.
