Chapter 51 The Black Dragon Comes Out of the Abyss
Too much is not enough.
This principle applies not only to life.
Many war historians have this understanding: in the war of the gods, the Western Emperor Alliance's planning was not too little but too much. And these many plans were planned together to achieve better results. However, in
At a certain time, after the planning of complex calculations was superimposed, the opposite effect occurred, and even turned all efforts at that time into negative numbers.

Chapter 51 The black dragon emerges from the abyss
Whether it was Chi Aotian, Qing Luo, Qu Jianhong or other Black Dragon Knights, the officers and cadres of the small mercenary group would never have thought of it. In just one month, less than 5,000 remaining soldiers were defeated in what is known as a place of death.
As the desert empire entered and exited, and when it drank from the Misisi River again, it already had 30,000 strong iron divisions, and the combat power of these 30,000 troops was even better than the combat power of the previous expeditionary force in its heyday.
Of course, many officers and cadres are convinced that if the Holy See had not intended to overthrow Zoroastrianism, there would not have been such a scene today. Speaking of which, the expeditionary force should really thank the archbishops of the Holy See.
After the grace of the Fire Temple shrouded the Desert Empire again, everything became simple and orderly.
The Great Priest of the Fire God of Zoroastrianism announced in the name of the Great God of Fire Shura: "In order to maintain the peace of the continents, Zoroastrianism and the Holy Desert Empire shrouded in divine grace have declared war on the pseudo-Holy See, the pseudo-Manyang Empire, and the Kofanos Continent. From now on.
Until then, until the enemy is completely destroyed, Zoroastrianism and the desert peoples favored by God will never make any compromise."
The new king of the Desert Empire, His Highness Afti, adhered to the will of God passed down by the High Priest, issued a nationwide mobilization order for national war, and immediately began to arrange an all-out war against the culprit, the Holy See.
The general mobilization order, known as "Burning in Fire" by later generations, was divided into three parts.
1. All reservists and mercenary organizations of the Holy Desert Empire will report to their respective registration places from now on; all male non-reserve citizens who are over 16 years old and under 60 years old will report to the chiefs of each tribe from now on.
2. Regular combat forces established by all tribes, including chiefs and other nobles, will report to Bombay City today.
3. Send an elite legion numbering around 20,000, under the command of Chi Aotian, a "close friend of the Zoroastrian Cult", as the vanguard of the revenge army.
In a country where church and state are united, everything becomes simple and effective once the church takes the initiative. In just 30 days, a total of 320,000 regular troops and paramilitary forces were assembled in the desert hinterland.
This should be a very interesting phenomenon: in the Holy Desert Empire, the large cities represented by Bombay are the ones that bear the greatest burden of divine grace. People in remote areas can only feel the divine grace when Vulcan priests come to preach the gospel.
existence. However, in the thousand-year trial, it was Meng who first betrayed His Highness Fire Shura.
Residents of big cities such as Mai, but in the hinterland of the desert, the people who have not seen the Vulcan Priest for two to three hundred years have never complained about His Highness Huoshuluo. They firmly believe that when they encounter insurmountable obstacles,
In times of difficulty, Master Huo Shura and his envoys will come from afar to save them as before.
When a faith, a belief is passed down by the believers through word of mouth and body, so that their descendants can feel the existence of this faith from the day they are born, without the need for any priests to teach. This kind of faith
Power will transcend everything.
Therefore, when the residents in the hinterland of the desert learned the truth, these silent people silently took the best and possibly only camels in their homes, and they met like raindrops on the way, and finally they were like huge waves hitting the sky.
The same appears in every gathering place.
There was still a slight problem with the general mobilization - which army would be allowed to accompany Chi Aotian's expeditionary army to launch the war first.
Over the past 500 years, with the rise of the pan-continental overlord Amy Empire, the Frozen Continent and the Amynor Continent as a whole have entered a rare period of stability. Although small-scale conflicts have broken out from time to time, wars between empires have rarely occurred.
It has happened, especially on the continent of Eminor.
After several disarmaments, the Holy Desert Empire has a total internal force of hundreds of thousands, and a regular force of 100,000 belonging to each tribe, for a total force of 210,000.
According to His Majesty the King's wishes, there are no candidates for the 7,000-strong regiment directly under the eldest prince led by General Hussein and the corps directly under the former second prince bin Laden. In this regard, the numerous chiefs do not have many candidates.
Doubtful. After all, these two
This army has made outstanding achievements in the rebellion of Bombay City. In other words, if these two legions had not been fighting desperately outside the city, by the time the God of Fire came down to show mercy again, the city of Mumbai would have changed its master long ago. That would have been the case.
It is a great shame and humiliation for the desert people.
His Majesty the King then incorporated the regular troops of his tribe into the advance force, which suddenly aroused public outrage.
In the past three hundred years, the Desert Empire has not fought a major war, and troops at the legion level rarely have the opportunity to receive honorary titles. In the Battle of Bombay City, the legions directly under the two princes became famous in one battle, and after the war they were all named
With the title of "Guards", all soldiers who participated in the war, regardless of life or death, had the title of Imperial Knight.
title. Now that the regular troops have been incorporated into the advance team, if this continues, won’t His Majesty the King’s tribe become a “Guard” tribe? Then shouldn’t His Majesty the King’s throne simply be hereditary from now on...
…Hundreds of other tribes, large and small, are just there as decorations.
More importantly, all the chiefs know that His Excellency the Grand Duke Chi Aotian has previously promised that all soldiers and civilians of the Desert Empire who participated in the war will enjoy the rights of enfeoffed territory. Ordinary Desert Empire soldiers, forget it, no matter how good the thing is
There is nothing left for the military exploits of the lowest level soldiers. Why don’t hundreds of tribal chiefs, large and small, understand the key point? As early as three hundred years ago, the largest source of income for the Holy Desert Empire was not handmade.
Products and camels, in Huayuping
The horse thieves who whizzed past the area would bring back golden coins, fragrant beef and beautiful women every time they went out. Later, because the Amy Empire signed an offensive and defensive alliance covenant with the Holy See, the desert peoples were unable to escape after suffering repeated heavy losses.
Don't give up this piece of fat. Now, Grand Duke Chi Aotian is a powerful figure who has the right to redraw the boundaries on behalf of the Red Stone Emperor. He can use this opportunity to occupy more space for his tribe. The chiefs are not interested in each other.
Dare to speak loudly about this beautiful thing.
Cough... It's so powerful that the chiefs don't even think about how a 20-year-old kid could get such great power, even if he is the nephew of His Majesty Red Stone. In the war between the gods, the people represented by Amy
A group of young people are really bold. If their interests were at stake, these young people would take His Majesty the Red Stone Emperor's jade seal and stamp it everywhere.
Faced with the accusations of more than a hundred major tribal chiefs, His Highness Afti finally had to make a concession - from the more than 250 tribes that had arrived in Mumbai, each tribe sent out 2 warriors to hold a desert warrior event, and finally decided
20 winning tribes will be selected. Each of these 20 tribes will send out 500 warriors to form a new legion and form an advance force. If the tribe is relatively small and does not have so many warriors, it can hire warriors from other tribes to participate in the battle.
In order to calm down the anger of many chiefs, His Highness Afoti even took the initiative to express his position: Everyone is worried about the current king's tribe, so let's do this, the king's tribe will not participate in the desert warrior event. Many chiefs were very pleased, after all, where is the strength?
, if they do not abstain, then other tribes are competing for 19 places. "Allah bless you! You are as pure as a newborn lamb." The chiefs kissed the selfless King with tears in their eyes.
Ten days later, after dozens of rounds of selection, 20 tribes stood out. The winners, except for a few exceptions, were all large tribes with a population of more than 3,000 people.
Oh... By the way... There is one thing that must be explained... What made more than two hundred tribal chiefs extremely depressed and hurt was that when General Chi Aotian sent his troops south, the tribal chiefs found out that they were newly appointed
His Majesty the King gave him a big dish.
His Majesty the King's tribe did not participate in the competition, but the two God's Guards Corps used these ten days to double their combat strength. The target of the expansion was of course their own tribal warriors. In the end, where the king was
When there were not enough warriors in the tribe, His Majesty Afti was so ruthless that he also recruited the warriors from his mother's tribe into two Guards regiments.
"Damn it, this bastard king is a fox just like me." The chiefs cursed in their hearts, but they couldn't say anything else. If His Majesty was offended, the king might just kill him.
It would be foolish to send the warriors of the tribe to the eastern part of the empire to guard the coastline.
Accompanying Chi Aotian's expeditionary force southward were the four great priests of the Zoroastrian Cult. After the rebellion in Mumbai, as one of the miracles of Shenzawa Online: all the surviving priests of the Zoroastrian Cult suddenly possessed the ability of super priests after two upgrades.
.Even in the middle of the night, the Fire God High Priests can easily obtain the power from the gods of the Fire Star Palace, and can even summon the Phoenix (Phoenix), a sacred bird that only appears in legends.
There is almost no secrecy when the large army marches in the desert. Chi Aotian is not prepared to hide anything. Before that, the expeditionary army had to avoid the pursuit and interception of the Xidijun Group, which was really constrained by combat power.
Otherwise, with Chi Aotian's nature, he would never do such a thing. Now
...The expeditionary force once again had strong mobility and also had the right to launch campaigns. Moreover, reinforcements were coming in a steady stream. These reinforcements were no longer the herdsmen who had just put down their rakes. All of this made Chi
Aotian had one thought in his mind: "In a battle, victory or defeat will be decided in one battle."
Similar thoughts were beating in the hearts of the original senior officers of the expeditionary force.
Of course, none of these senior officers knew that after more than half a year of training, the war machine of the Holy Holy See had been honed to become extremely agile. At the same time, the power displayed on this war machine was not comparable to what it had been a few months ago.
