"Your Majesty the King, we are here this time to ask for something from you," Murong Xiaotian went straight to the point as soon as he entered the palace and sat down; since Long'er had already made it clear to Su Ya, Murong Xiaotian didn't have anything to say. Very hidden.
The most important thing is that a big battle between the 'Light Empire' and the 'Dark Empire' is about to take place. In a short time, the senior generals of the 'Light Empire' will arrive. By then, they will be too busy discussing how to defend themselves against the enemy. Then There is still time to take care of yourself.
Also, as soon as Su Ya says that "Guangyue City" will fall, I am afraid that His Majesty the King of the "Light Moon Empire" will take action immediately and will never stop like this. By then, he may not even have a chance to speak. Therefore, Murong Xiaotian went straight to the point before Su Ya spoke.
"You are distinguished guests. Tell me what you want. As long as I can provide it, I will never refuse," His Majesty the King replied very generously.
"They want the 'Holy Book'," before Murong Xiaotian could speak, Su Ya had already said quickly: "Father, let this matter go for now, there are more important things happening."
"It's over," Murong Xiaotian sighed sadly in his heart. As soon as Su Ya said this, he knew that there was no chance. His idea was shattered. I am afraid that from this moment on, people have to deal with emergency military situations, so there is still time to take care of him. This is a mess.
"What's the matter?" Sure enough, the king's eyes returned to Su Ya.
"'Guangyue City' has fallen," Su Ya said in a low voice.
"What?" The king slapped his palm on the handle of the throne, causing the whole throne to tremble slightly. He stood up, his face changed drastically, and he kept saying: "Impossible, how is this possible? Our 'Guangyue City' is stationed with a hundred thousand troops, and 'Guangyue City' is extremely strong. Even if the opponent has ten times the number of soldiers, it will be difficult to break through. How is this possible?"
No matter how deep the king's palace is and how calm he is, he is still panicking at this time. One hundred thousand troops have been destroyed, and the only barrier of the 'Light Empire' against the enemy has fallen. After all, this is an issue involving the survival of the entire 'Light Empire'. , he couldn't help but be surprised.
"But, this is a fact," Su Ya's face showed a look of frustration and extreme grief and anger, and she said sadly: "This attack came very suddenly. When the army of the 'Dark Empire' came to the city, 'Guangyue City' Countless enemies suddenly appeared inside. They cooperated inside and outside. We had no preparation at all. We were captured by them instantly. Only three hundred cavalry fought with me to break out of the encirclement and retreated south. But these three hundred soldiers, in order to cover me, They all died heroically during the evacuation," Su Ya said at the end, already sobbing.
"Cooperating inside and outside, how did they enter the 'Guangyue City'? Our 'Dark Empire' has never done business with them. For hundreds of years, no one from the 'Dark Empire' has been able to enter 'Guangyue City' and enter the 'Light Empire'" , how did they arrange for so many people to enter the 'Guangyue City' to lurk?" His Majesty the King's hands were trembling slightly.
"Is this difficult? Just because he can't enter your 'Guangyue City' for hundreds of years, he will put in a lot of effort. To be honest, it doesn't take hundreds of years, but ten years to build a secret tunnel from underground. It is not difficult at all for the tunnel to reach your 'Guangyue City'," Murong Xiaotian said angrily.
This is something that is not obvious. Since you and others do not trade with each other, it is impossible to sneak in. Since it is impossible to sneak in, and the other party cannot fly, of course they have to dig tunnels underground.
"Ah, tunnel, yes, they must have dug a tunnel to get in. Why didn't I think of that," Su Ya shouted.
King Buck took a deep look at Murong Xiaotian and quickly regained his composure. He shouted to the outside of the palace: "Here comes someone."
Suddenly, the palace attendants waiting outside the palace ran in.
"Inform Marshal Shorten and the commanders of each army to come to discuss the matter,"
"Father, I have sent someone to notify him. They should arrive soon," Su Ya interrupted King Buck.
After giving Su Ya an appreciative look, King Buck said: "Then let's inform the whole empire and issue an emergency defense notice to the entire empire. At the same time, let the subjects near the imperial capital quickly enter the city and prepare to close the city gates."
"Yes, Your Majesty," the attendant quickly exited the palace.
As soon as King Buck's order was sent out, the marshal and four army commanders of the 'Bright Empire' had already arrived. Although they looked a little surprised to see Murong Xiaotian and Long'er, they did not dare to ask. After all, who can sit here No one is simple.
Next, just as Murong Xiaotian expected, no one could care about the two of them. Those guys were just discussing the matter.
From their discussion, Murong Xiaotian had a detailed understanding of the 'Empire of Light'. This 'Empire of Light' turned out to be larger than Murong Xiaotian imagined. There were four cities, and from here to the south, there were There are two cities. Just because 'Guangyue City' is the only way for the 'Dark Empire' to enter the 'Light Empire', they will build the imperial capital closer to 'Guangyue City' so that when a war breaks out, Support for 'Koyuki Castle', and convenient and fast delivery of messages.
In fact, the border between the 'Light Empire' and the 'Dark Empire' is very broad, but other places are either mountains that cannot be crossed or rivers that cannot be crossed. Only 'Guangyue City' is the only passage, so this 'Guangyue City' The geographical location of the city is very important.
After listening to their discussion, Murong Xiaotian became very angry. He was not a marshal, he was a legionnaire, he was just a bunch of rubbish who could only talk on paper.
One said to attack with all strength and fight to the death, another said to defend the imperial capital; still others said to abandon the imperial capital and retreat southward, then build a defense line in the two southern cities, and at the same time, recruit troops quickly.
Damn it, Murong Xiaotian almost vomited blood. If you fight hard, what are you going to do? The 'Bright Empire' has 300,000 troops, and 100,000 of them have been destroyed in 'Guangyue City', leaving only 200,000 troops. Looking at the 'Dark Empire', with half a million troops, even if they lost 50,000 in the attack on 'Guangyue City', there are still more than 400,000 left. If you use 200,000 to fight for the more than 400,000 others have, Isn’t that just courting death?
The one who said he would defend to the death is also an idiot. God, I will surround you and not fight. Two hundred thousand troops plus the common people near God's capital will consume so much food in a day, and there are no reinforcements. Just hold on for a month. , two months, half a year, can you still hold on?
When the people in the city became hungry and started eating rats and cockroaches, the emperor would be destroyed.
The one who said retreat and expand the army is even more ridiculous. Is it too late to expand the army now? Even if we can recruit 100,000 new soldiers in an instant, these ordinary people who have never even held weapons are considered soldiers. They are just cannon fodder to die; not to mention, you have recruited soldiers Are you better than others? The population of their "Dark Empire" is much larger than yours.
The most ridiculous thing for Murong Xiaotian was that no one immediately arranged for manpower to rush to the direction of "Guangyue City" to detect the enemy's situation. He didn't even know the opponent's current situation, so how could he fight against it.
According to Murong Xiaotian's thinking, when the enemy is strong and we are weak, first, we must first understand the enemy's situation. This is a prerequisite for all battles. If you can't even understand the opponent's situation, the rest is just a sentence. Empty words.
The second is to check the map, use the terrain, and then decide what strategy to adopt to gradually defeat the enemy.
Although the other party has a large number of people, 'Guangyue City' occupies the time and geography, and the terrain of the 'Bright Empire', no matter what, is more familiar to the other party.
But what are these guys doing?
In fact, Murong Xiaotian can't blame them. The 'Light Empire' and the 'Dark Empire' have not fought for hundreds of years. These so-called imperial marshals and army commanders, let alone experienced hundreds of battles like him. They had never even seen the scene of war. Suddenly, war came. Of course, they were in a state of despair.
Murong Xiaotian didn't know clearly. These marshals and army commanders were just hereditary positions borrowed from their ancestors. Apart from fighting spirit, their abilities were pretty good and they didn't lose the face of their ancestors. As for marching and fighting, fighting with them Compared with those forefathers who were brave and good at fighting, I am not qualified to carry their shoes.
"Su Ya, give me a map of the 'Forgotten Continent'," Murong Xiaotian spoke.
It is really helpless. If he keeps waiting like this, his "Holy Book" will be in ruins. Now he can only see if he can help them. Of course, the prerequisite is that the problem must be solved before the "Altar" is closed. If it can If he could do it, Murong Xiaotian would have no choice but to take action.
At present, it seems that this is the only way to obtain the 'Holy Book' in exchange.
"Oh," Su Ya immediately arranged for someone to get a map of the 'Forgotten Continent' for Murong Xiaotian.
After looking at the map, Murong Xiaotian's eyes lit up. He magically discovered that from the 'Imperial Capital of Light' to the northwest, you can go directly to the Imperial Capital of the 'Dark Empire'. Calculating the distance, if all light cavalry are used and advance at full speed, You can arrive in less than twenty hours.
However, there is an insurmountable barrier there, the holy river.
It is that holy river that divides the land in the west of the 'Forgotten Continent' into two different empires, 'Light' and 'Dark'.
That holy river, to put it simply, is the dividing line on the west between the 'Empire of Light' and the 'Empire of Darkness'.
"Shut the fuck up," Murong Xiaotian shouted angrily after reading the map carefully and thinking seriously, and directly used the shock and coercion skill of the Knight Medal, which made the whole hall buzz.
He really didn't want to hear any more nonsense from these guys, and he didn't have enough time for them to waste.
Suddenly, the hall fell into silence, and everyone's heart skipped a beat due to the terrifying power of shock.
