On the first day when the Crusaders invaded Zhanyun Continent, General Changkong laid out a huge chess game. At the beginning, due to internal and external troubles in the Qin Empire, everything was in disarray. In addition, the emperor died not long ago, and the new emperor was young and ignorant.
, the whole country lost its cohesion, and was taken advantage of by General Gore, who attacked the city and captured the territory along the way, leaving Chang Kong to retreat to Blackwater City, and the country almost perished.
Just when the Qin Empire was about to fall, Zhao Yuan came out of nowhere to turn the tide, causing General Gore's efforts to go to waste and all his achievements failed.
The original strategy of General Changkong, who had recovered his breath, was revealed at this time. Due to the invasion of the Crusaders, the quality of life of the people of the Qin Empire was greatly reduced, which aroused the common hatred of the people. The most terrible thing was that some cultivation sects and
People in the world have joined the war one after another. Even the monsters in the prehistoric area have formed large-scale armies, and they are constantly heading towards the Great Qin Empire...
…
The Heaven-defying Monkey, the Heaven-Bearing Monkey, the Bull Demon King, cultivators from various sects...
A wry smile appeared on Prince Philip's lips. He did not expect the current situation to arise.
Obviously, Gore's large-scale march was too aggressive at the beginning. In order to conquer the Qin Empire in one go, he did not hesitate to fight to support the war, which harmed the interests of some gentry and local tyrants, aroused resistance throughout the Qin Empire, and made the Crusaders
Caught in the quagmire of war.
To put it simply, everything is because of General Changkong.
If General Gore had been able to fight steadily, advance step by step, and not spread his forces far and wide, he would have been encroaching on the territory of the Qin Empire bit by bit, and the current raging resistance would never have occurred.
Prince Philip knew very well that at this time, he was helpless.
Prince Philip is a very far-sighted military strategist with a far-sighted strategic vision. Precisely because he has seen through General Chang Kong's strategy, he has given up hope of occupying the entire Qin Empire in a short time.
Of course, Prince Philip just gave up hope of occupying the Qin Empire in a short period of time, not giving up the entire Qin Empire.
In order to break the strategic plan constructed by General Changkong, Prince Philip ordered a defensive state.
Now, the Crusaders and the armies of the Great Qin Empire have built a solid line of defense from Orange Island to Tongzhou City and the cities along Zhenshuiguan. Prince Philip issued a death order that no one can launch an attack or take a step back.
.
Holding on to the defensive line has become the iron rule of the Crusaders.
Prince Philip's approach is very simple: eliminate the resistance forces in the occupied areas, appease the local tyrants and gentry, and establish a puppet regime dominated by Daqin people...
…
A series of policies allowed Prince Philip to finally stabilize his position.
General Changkong seemed to have guessed what Prince Philip was thinking. In addition to constant harassment, he also began to build a large-scale defense line and was ready for a protracted war.
The two lines of defense are less than fifty miles apart, and there is no one in between.
The unmanned belt does not really mean the unmanned belt. Every day, the Qin Empire's army moves around the unmanned belt, harassing and attacking the Crusaders from time to time.
In just one year, two impregnable defense lines were built between Juzizhou and Zhenshuiguan in Tongzhou City, dividing the entire territory of the Qin Empire into two, with clear lines.
Both sides had names for their defense lines, but at the end, there was only one name left for the defense line - the Death Line of Defense.
The Death Line is well-deserved, because this place has become a huge meat grinder, and countless soldiers have died here. On average, more than a thousand soldiers are killed every day.
General Changkong and Prince Philip, the two greatest strategists, relied on the death line of defense and began to line up their troops, looking for gaps in their opponents. They always wanted to kill the opponent with a fatal blow...
…
The moment Zhao Yuan flew ashore from the ship, he sensed the breath of Lan Cai'er shooting arrows. At the same time, he saw Lan Cai'er bending her bow and shooting arrows. Next to Lan Cai'er, she was surrounded by the Ninth Prince and the
A group of masters.
"Cai'er!" Zhao Yuan's voice was a little trembling.
"Zhao Yuan."
There seems to be a feeling somewhere.
When Zhao Yuan called Lan Cai'er, Zhao Yuan was still several miles away in the air. However, Lan Cai'er heard Zhao Yuan's voice and subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound. Suddenly, her whole body was stunned.
.
Time and space seem to stand still.
The bow and arrow in Lan Cai'er's hand fell to the ground, and her blue eyes were filled with tears as she looked at the long-haired man getting closer and closer in the distance.
This man has never let her down!
In Lan Cai'er's entire world, only Zhao Yuan's figure remained, turning a deaf ear to the noisy cries of killing around him.
It seemed like a century had passed, and finally, Zhao Yuan's slender body fell in front of Lan Cai'er, and the two pairs of eyes stared at each other, full of affection.
"You have suffered." Zhao Yuan looked deeply at Lan Cai'er's haggard and pale face.
"It's worth it." Lan Cai'er smiled slightly and rolled up her hair around her ears.
"let's go."
"Um."
The two of them didn't say much. In fact, the two of them didn't need to say anything at all, because there was a tacit understanding between the two of them that outsiders couldn't understand. A look in their eyes was enough!
Surrounded by thousands of people, the two walked towards the Er Palace.
In just half a day, the name of the undefeated God of War Zhao Yuan once again resounded across the land of the Er Empire. However, what was different this time was that Zhao Yuan became the hero who saved the Or people.
When the news of the successful mutiny in the Er Imperial Capital spread throughout the Er Empire, in less than two days, the entire Er Empire fell under the control of the Ninth Prince. Among them, there were more than 20,000 defeated crusaders.
They gathered together and traveled a long distance through the Er Desert to head towards the Qin Emperor.
Now, the Crusaders of the Er Empire have no other way to go except the Great Qin Empire.
It is still unknown whether a group of defeated soldiers can cross the arid Er Desert without supplies.
The deep palace compound is heavily guarded.
In a luxurious study room, the Ninth Prince and Zhao Yuan were sitting. Lan Cai'er stood quietly behind Zhao Yuan. If it weren't for the slightly undulating chest and abdomen, it would be easy to mistake it for a perfect lifeless sculpture.
"Your Highness, think twice!" Zhao Yuan stared at the Ninth Prince with a deep gaze.
"Are you threatening me?" The Ninth Prince's eyes seemed to be shooting out of blazing flames.
"No, Zhao will never threaten the prince. Zhao just told the prince that even the current emperor of the Qin Empire can only retain the title of emperor and cannot participate in the management of state affairs. In the future, the palace of the Qin Empire will also
It will be open to ordinary people on a regular basis, so the Er Palace must also be open. If the prince wants to live in the palace, there is no problem. However, any common people in the Great Qin Empire, including the Er people and Cinu people, will
You have the right to visit the palace. The palace is the property of every citizen of Zhanyun Continent!" Zhao Yuan said calmly with a calm face.
"What if I don't agree?" The Ninth Prince said every word.
"Zhao currently does not control Er. He only has the right to make suggestions and not to make decisions. Therefore, this needs to be decided by the prince himself."
"Does the general mean that if I don't agree with it, you will still implement this policy when you take control of Orr?!" The Ninth Prince sneered.
"Yes." Zhao Yuan said firmly.
"The general is still threatening me." The Ninth Prince took a deep breath.
"Your Majesty, this is our established national policy, and it is not aimed at you. Not only your Er royal family, but also the Shanyu who assassinated the slaves and the emperor of Qin will implement this policy. Moreover, Mr. Zhao said at the beginning that Russia
All the treatment you receive is based on that of the Cinu clan. Although I, Mr. Zhao, am not an upright man, let alone the leader of a country, I, Mr. Zhao, will use my life to uphold my promise!"
"General, I have worked hard..."
"My lord, you are still a noble prince, and your royal family is still the eternal king of Er. Your people will be supported and respected, and you will have wealth that is unparalleled in the country. What you have now will continue to have and lose.
It's just a little bit of rights, but there is no harm in losing this little bit of rights, because when you lose your rights, you become safer. The change of national power has nothing to do with you. If the prince really
If you think about your people, you should understand the benefits."
"I would like to think about it for a few more days."
"Your Majesty, I need you to decide now, because your decision will directly affect what Zhao wants to do." Zhao Yuan's tone became tough, without any room for change.
