The next day, the army slowly set off towards the enemy fortress. Wood sent out only 400,000 troops this time, while the Shadow Kingdom sent 400,000 troops. Gangze's army was besieged in the Brave City. It can be said that Gangze is now an empty frame.
Now Wood is leading 200,000 people to attack the enemy fort. This is a county in Gangze. It is said that the enemy's fort is comparable to the defense of Stromgarde. It is the most important industrial city in Gangze. It contains most of the weapons and armor in the empire and is well-known on the mainland.
All the chariots were produced in this enemy fortress.
Wood's legion passed through obstacles all the way, and the villages and towns they encountered opened their doors to pass. The courage of these Gangze people was frightened. The key point was that the rumors about Wood were different. Some people said that the legion led by Wood was the enemy's division, and those who resisted were killed.
He was pardoned and granted favors to those who surrendered, which resulted in Wood not encountering any recalcitrant forces in the villages and towns he passed.
In the evening of that day, Wood led the regiment through a village. Because the regiment did not continue on its way after dark, Wood ordered to camp outside the city and not allow soldiers to enter the village to avoid affecting the civilians in the village.
But when the legion set up camp, the people of Gangze were frightened. This was the rhythm of massacre of the city! I heard that the Magic Empire legion did not stop along the way, why did it stop here? Could it be that the Magic Empire was unhappy with this village and was preparing to massacre it?
The army raided and massacred the whole village.
That night, many people in the village gathered together to think of countermeasures. Finally, they asked a declining nobleman to take a few cultivators to the Magic Empire military camp. Now the village has opened its gate, but this large number of legions will not leave.
, this is indeed quite worrying.
The selected people were helpless and could only lead the three bronze warriors in the village to the military camp.
"Stop, who are you?"
The declining noble said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone: [
"We are farmers in the village ahead. We have cleared the road. You can pass by."
The patrol team almost laughed out loud. In that empire, you can be treated like this. If they want to attack you, the civilians must make way for the enemy.
"You go back! The army will rest outside the town for the night today and will be on the road again tomorrow. The commander-in-chief has given orders and will not disturb you civilians."
The declining noble was stunned for a moment. In the history of Shen'en Continent, there is no country that invades like this. It is not burning, killing and looting. The Magic Empire's army is coming. The Gangze Empire has no garrison.
I'm lucky that the village I passed by didn't get massacred. I didn't expect it!
The declining nobles and a few bronze warriors left. Wood quietly watched the scene in front of him in the sky. He finally achieved the effect of defeating the enemy without fighting, but the current calm will be the beginning of a storm.
Wood returned to the military tent and looked at the secret message in his hand.
Since the invasion of the Magic Legion and the Shadow Kingdom, Emperor Gangze ordered the evacuation of all civilians in the enemy fort, and then sent a large number of slaves and soldiers who were defeated in the last battle to the enemy fort.
Currently, the Gangze Empire's defense is mainly placed in three places: the enemy fort, the garrison fort, and Sanshan City. Except for the enemy fort, which is the final route of the Magic Empire, the other two are the best blocking points for intercepting the Shadow Kingdom.
Now the common people in these three cities have been driven away, and most of the nobles have fled to Bincheng in the north, pinning their hopes on the Ice and Snow Empire.
The reason why Wood was not in a hurry was because he wanted to give the Gangze Empire time to retreat and give Gangze enough time to transfer the civilians away, so that the two sides could fight happily. However, he could not give too much time.
Just one night is enough.
Looking at the map on the table and the battle report from the Shadow Kingdom, after the Shadow Pass and Yuguan Pass were breached, the Shadow Kingdom Legion is now at war with Sanshan City and the garrison fort. Although there are not many garrison troops in Gangze, the background is still there, I guess.
With the strength of the Shadow Kingdom, there should be no problem for the Gangze Empire to defend it for three days.
But Wood is thinking about another issue, and that is why the defenses of Gangze Capital City and Sword Shield City have not retreated. If Wood stood in this situation, he would immediately transfer all the financial resources of the capital city Sword and Shield City to Bincheng
.
Wood then produced a secret report, and Dick was imprisoned on charges of treason and collaborating with the enemy.
Wood curled his lips, Emperor Gangze fell into the trap. Although Wood didn't want Dick to get involved in this matter, with the current power of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, it is impossible for the Gangze Empire to win. You must know that the Ice and Snow Empire is now equivalent to a
At the bottom of the pit, no one can rely on him, and whoever leans on him will fall. Gang Ze was dragged down by the Ice and Snow Empire.
Wood put down all the secret reports in his hands, already feeling the joy of victory in his heart.[
Just when Wood was about to take a rest, the soul body sent a message of consciousness:
"Wood, I admire you more and more now. Your ability to command operations is so strong! Is this innate?"
"Yeah!" Wood just responded casually. How could he reply? Who would believe that he relied on a lot of past life memories?
The soul body then asked:
"Then do you think, in your impression, who can beat you?"
Wood thought about it, because in his consciousness, the people who could defeat him were not in this world. There were many people in China who were better than him, especially those who led troops to fight or commanded operations, but what the soul body said
In Wood's impression, only those people from China are in this world...
"There is only one person, Fascist!"
The soul body then asked:
"Do you think you are more powerful, or he is more powerful?"
Wood said calmly:
“I’ve never compared it, so I don’t know!”
The soul body smiled and said:
"Are you confident? But do you think Eva, Dick, or your brothers, or your adoptive father, are really inferior to you?"
Wood thought for a moment and said:
"I didn't dare to say it before, but since I learned about the major professions, and the notes given to me by the three principals, I have thoroughly studied them. Coupled with the sect's study during that period, now I have a thorough understanding of every profession in Shen'en Continent.
They all know each other very well. It can be said that I know the professional training, personal battles and legion battles of the Divine Grace Continent very well, and I will definitely not be worse than the Fashen Sith."
The soul body asked in confusion:
"Then what do you think the others still lack?"
Wood curled his lips and said:
"You are an amateur when you ask this. They are very different. My adoptive father is too stubborn. This is his weakness. If he does not get rid of this problem, he will easily die on the battlefield. And Eva, she is too paranoid.
, Ivan pursues interests too much, but Dick! He is very good, he is the best person I have ever met."
The soul body smiled and asked:
"That's why you want to accept him as your disciple?"
"Yeah." Wood responded casually.
The soul body sighed deeply and said:
"Wood! You are too strict with yourself. In fact, any of your friends who are placed in other countries are like the commanders of the empire, so you don't need to be so serious."
Wood retorted:
"I don't think so. I think they haven't reached the level I expected, because we have gods-like enemies, and in the future we will have terrifying opponents from demons, so they still need to be tempered."
"Forget it, I won't ask you about right and wrong!" The soul body changed the subject and said:
"According to your expectations, how long will it take to unify the Divine Grace Continent?"
"About a year and a half!" Wood said firmly.
The soul body said in confusion:
"After so long, almost all the countries heading north have been defeated. Gangze only has a chance to breathe. The recovery of the Ice and Snow Empire is only a matter of your words. The Shadow Kingdom is also under control. It will take another year and a half.
?”
Wood nodded heavily and said:
"Yes, don't look at the current situation. Although Gangze only has the ability to breathe, Gangze's heritage is still there. If the Gangze royal family does not surrender, the Gangze strong men will not be loyal to me; secondly, Bingxue
Empire, although I have a relationship with Eva, this is only the relationship between the two of us and does not represent us and the Ice and Snow Empire, so Eva’s own words don’t count. Unless she can unify the hearts and minds of the Ice and Snow Empire, it won’t work!”
The soul body thought about it carefully and said:
"You're right, but there's nothing you can do about it?"
Wood closed his eyes and thought for a while and said:
"Yes, form a United Nations, use the cabinet to manage the Divine Grace Continent, and abolish the imperial system."
