Nan Ruohuai suddenly stood up, a cold light flashed in his hand, the dagger was already placed on the old chamberlain's neck, and shouted: "Who ordered you to harm me?"
The old chamberlain was so frightened that his whole body trembled. His skin rubbed against the edge of the dagger, causing a gash and blood gushing out. He said in a trembling voice: "I am loyal to Your Majesty, but I really can't stand that man's arrogance. Why?
You are unfair!"
Nan Ruohuai pondered for a moment, then slowly sheathed the dagger and said: "If you saw that man killing the national master like a dog, you wouldn't think so. The so-called ancestral secret medicine can really kill him.
His life? What if the poison doesn’t kill him?”
The old chamberlain raised his eyebrows, and said with murderous intent: "At worst, we have to fight him! You have a large army at hand, what are you afraid of him? Although the battleship is big, we are united as one, and there is always a chance to defeat him. Without the battleship, he
what else?"
Nan Ruohuai smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "You don't know, he also has a bigger warship, which didn't come over at all, it just stopped in the void. Now these warships together are just one part of that giant ship.
A fraction."
The old chamberlain was stunned by what he heard, with a look of disbelief on his face, "How could there be such a big battleship in this world?"
Nan Ruohuai shook his head and sat back in the big chair. Yes, how could there be such a big battleship? And how big would the outside world be?
The number of mercenaries Qianye brought into the royal capital was not large, even less than the number of crew members, so he only controlled the aerospace landing field outside the city and the area near the south gate. Several buildings had
Ground structures that could threaten the battleship were also occupied.
In this way, the royal capital is in a delicate state of de facto divide and rule.
Qianye returned to the battle patrol, summoned the mercenary generals and Song Hui to the war room, and hung a high-scale map of the Zheng Kingdom next to the large land map on the wall.
Qianye picked up the pointing pole, pointed out several cities in Zheng State, and said: "Here, here, and this area, we want to take these five cities ourselves. Xudong Island is rich in minerals, and Liaocheng can
Transformed into military industrial bases, and these cities have both resources and manpower, they can build a channel to the dark race country in the west, ensuring that our mercenaries can continue to kill into the hinterland of Yonglu. Do you have any opinions?
"
The mercenary generals were not strong in planning strategies. Several people from the Song clan looked surprised and could not say anything.
"Then it's settled." Qianye made his decision concisely and clearly.
Song Lun said: "Sir, this is equivalent to cutting Zheng Guo into one-third, and most of it is the essence. Will there be any objections from Zheng Guo?"
Song Hui smiled softly and said: "Yes, our King Xinzheng has 80,000 forbidden troops!"
What they actually mean is to remind Qianye that Nan Ruohuai is no longer the powerless person who can be dealt with at will. Now he at least controls the Forbidden Army on the surface, and to a certain extent, the entire Zheng State will
Exclude outsiders like Qianye. In the past, Nan Ruohuai had nothing, so it was no problem for Qianye to occupy Xudong Floating Island and Liaocheng in his name, but now, should we consider the reaction of King Xinzheng?
Qianye said: "We have already wasted too much time in Zheng Guo. It doesn't matter what he thinks and don't care. Now that the matter has been decided, it will be implemented accordingly. If there are any obstacles in the process, no matter who it is, they will be dealt with.
Clear. The order I gave you is only to attack! Do you understand?"
The mercenary generals were all afraid of chaos in the world. They all screamed and screamed, and some said in weird voices: "What if the Imperial Army comes to steal territory from us?"
"There are so many of them! I'm scared to death!"
"That's right, there are 80,000 people, forty against one of you, Lao Lin, you are going to be overturned!"
"I'm so scared, haha!"
All kinds of foul language kept popping up, making Song Hui blush slightly. She was a female gangster who could tease Qianye, but compared to these mercenaries who had really come up from the bottom, she was still a bit thin-skinned.
"Okay, everyone, please be quiet." After Qianye waited for everyone to be honest, he assigned tasks to the generals. At the same time, he sent someone to notify Nan Ruohuai, asking him to collect all Zheng's floating warships and hand them over to Dark Fire Unification.
command.
After the meeting, the mercenary generals rushed away one by one, deploying their own troops, fearing that their colleagues would take away the credit. In fact, there were only two thousand elite mercenaries in total, and each of them had only more than a hundred points, so they could fight or fight.
There is a city to be conquered, but it is impossible to capture it.
The mercenary generals assigned to the same city automatically got together to study the assignment of tasks during the siege. Several generals responsible for fleet deployment were surrounded by people, all trying to get more air support for their troops, even if
It's also good to be an armed gunboat.
Song Hui did not leave, however. She stood beside Qianye, staring at him from left to right, making him feel nervous. She asked with a wary look: "What do you want to do?"
Song Hui asked: "Did you really come up with this plan?"
"Of course." Qianye was a little confused by the question.
"I thought you only knew how to fight."
"What, is there something wrong with this plan?" Qianye asked humbly.
"It's just because there's no problem that I find it strange. You probably have no experience in commanding a major battle, nor do you have any experience in working in a staff department."
"Perhaps it's because when I encounter a problem, I wonder how Zining would solve it if he were here."
Song Hui shook her head, "This is not Brother Qi's style."
Qianye said helplessly: "I think this is good. Open up the passage and occupy important strongholds to ensure the safety of the rear and passage. What else is there? If someone obstructs it, just destroy him."
Song Hui gave a thumbs up and praised: "Domineering!"
Qianye rolled his eyes at her and said: "How can a small Zhengguo need to put so much thought into it?"
Song Huidao: "Then what should I do?"
"Aren't you supposed to stay here and take charge of the overall situation?"
"I want to go to war, please give me some troops."
Qianye didn't expect that she would make such a request. This girl was Song Zining's favorite cousin, and Qianye didn't want anything to go wrong. Besides, Song Hui lived up to her name, and her strengths were not in fighting.
Song Hui worked hard, but Qianye couldn't be entangled, so she gave her fifty mercenaries to guard the royal capital's aerospace base.
In the palace, Nan Ruohuai stood in the study with a gloomy face. He threw a few documents to the civil and military ministers standing on both sides and said, "You should also take a look."
A general took it and looked at it and shouted: "Hand over all the floating battleships?! How can this be done?"
No matter what the old ministers and upstarts of the Zheng Kingdom thought in the palace, Qianye's war machine started up again. The elite mercenaries were divided into two teams, starting from the royal capital and attacking the two small cities around Liao City.
Each of these two cities only has tens of thousands of people, and the defenders are more than a thousand, and they are all local troops. Attacking at a one-on-one ratio, isn't it easy to capture them?
Qianye also had no intention of giving up the South Gate area and the aerostat landing site, which made the Forbidden Army generals who came to take over the area feel ashamed. Fortunately, they still remembered how Liu Zhongyuan died, not far away.
The huge battle cruiser at the floating battleship take-off and landing ground also reminded them who the Zheng Kingdom's sky now belonged to, and this prevented them from doing anything stupid.
After receiving the news that Qianye had begun to march westward, the imperial army was not to be left behind. They almost came out in full force. They divided their troops into several groups and attacked strategically important places in the country. The posture was as if they were competing with Qianye to grab territory.
.There is also a group of forbidden troops, numbering 30,000, which is far more than other troops. The front of the troops is also pointing to the west. According to the march route, it seems that they want to seize several important towns in the western region before Qianye.
The Western Route Army of the Forbidden Army attacked crazily all the way and attacked the city, which was called heroic. Most of the Western Region originally belonged to the Second Prince, and the main force was in Liaocheng. It had already been crippled by Qianye. It lost its main mobile force and superior combat power.
With the strong generals, the defenses of all the cities in the Western Territory became empty.
However, Qianye has air power and a large number of transport ships. The elite troops are basically transported by air. How can the Imperial Guards keep up with land machinery?
In Tacheng, the most important town in the Western Region, the Dark Fire mercenaries, with the support of floating battleships, fought hard. This is the last stop of the Qianye Grand Corridor plan, and it is also the most important target.
Tacheng has a population of more than 150,000, controls a vast area of hundreds of kilometers around, and guards the west gate of the Zheng Kingdom. If Yongye's army wants to invade the interior of Zheng, it must defeat Tacheng. Otherwise, the army will go straight into the hinterland of the human race.
, there is still such a serious enemy behind, and the consequences will be disastrous.
The Zheng State is located at the tip of the maple leaf. There are rolling mountains to the north and south, making it difficult for the army to pass. The mountains converge at the western border of the Zheng State, leaving a narrow strip of land less than a hundred kilometers wide. The Tacheng was built on this large stretch of land.
It is the exit of the passage and provides support for more than ten small castle fortresses on the periphery.
Tacheng was originally very important, with a standing garrison of 10,000 people. However, there was civil strife in Zheng, with various princes vying for the throne, and the whereabouts of the old King Zheng unknown. It had already developed to the edge of civil war. But Nan Ruohuai came out of the blue and directly provoked the war.
The flames of total civil war.
In such a chaotic situation, Tacheng, which is located on the border, became less important. The princes were all interested in the garrison in the city. In order to enhance their own strength, the princes came to Tacheng one after another to "borrow troops". This garrison
The general is not a direct descendant of anyone, and he doesn't want to place a bet, nor does he want to be resented, so he has no choice but to give more or less troops.
However, there were too many princes in Zheng. Each of them had a few hundred people, and thousands of soldiers were sent out. When the Dark Fire Army came to the city, there were only 6,000 defenders in the tower city.
Facing An Huo's unprecedented large fleet, the defender knew that there was no hope of victory, not to mention Qianye came under the banner of Nan Ruohuai. Now that Nan Ruohuai has occupied the royal capital, he has a rightful name.
, unification is in sight. Faced with a dilemma, the guard asked the messenger sent by Dark Fire to ask the strong men from both sides to fight in front of the battle array to determine the outcome.
The mercenaries readily agreed, and then the generals from both sides took action. More than a dozen mercenary generals swarmed up and instantly overwhelmed the guard. The pitiful guard was a sixteenth-level warrior, and he could defeat any mercenary in a duel.
He was alone, but he couldn't stand up to the many wolves. In the blink of an eye, he was knocked to the ground, eaten and beaten.
In desperation, the guard had no choice but to admit defeat.
The outcome was decided. When he was pulled up, his nose and face were bruised, his eyes were swollen, and his clothes and armor were in tatters. This duel between strong men was like a fight between street gangsters.
