Chapter 139: Who is in charge of the great Aztec annexation?
April 3rd, cloudy.
Tang Jing got up. When he came outside, he saw Xiao Hong being groomed by Shangguan Wan'er, and her head was rubbing against Shangguan Wan'er's rich land from time to time.
That's right.
Xiao Hong is the Suzaku baby hatched yesterday, an angry bird.
"Boss!"
Because of the blood contract, Xiaohong was born close to Tang Jing.
It flapped its short wings and flew onto Tang Jing's shoulder.
As a mythical beast, although it is still a cub, it can already speak.
And his strength is extraordinary.
He is already a fourth-level being when he is just born, and can reach the sixth level when he enters the growth stage. At his peak, his combat power can even reach the seventh level, and even the terrifying eighth level.
Definitely the top of the pyramid.
【Name】:Xiaohong(infancy stage)
【Race】: Suzaku
[Talent]: Essence of Lihuo (brings Nanming Lihuo, burns everything, and is immune to all evil)
[Skill]: Feng Xiang Tian Transformation (forcibly enters the growth period, raising the combat power to the sixth level, after using it, it will enter a period of sleeping period to recover the huge consumption)
[Current combat power]: Level 5
Due to absorbing the energy of the Fire Spirit Stone, Xiao Hong's actual combat power has broken through to the fifth level. In addition to his natural talent, he has also awakened the special skill "Feng Xiang Tian Transformation".
In an emergency, Tang Jing will gain a sixth-level combat power.
"belch!"
At the dining table, Xiaohong gnawed eight large meat buns, and then she was satisfied.
I don’t know how that little belly is packed.
Perhaps because of absorbing the energy of the Fire Spirit Stone and growing too fast, Xiaohong is still unable to completely control Nanming Lihuo. Even when she burps, she can spit out a small amount of flames.
Melt the ceramic plate in front of you on the spot.
"!!!"
Shangguan Wan'er, who was standing next to Tang Jing, broke into a cold sweat when she saw this. She never expected that Xiao Hong, who seemed harmless to humans and animals, could actually be such a terrifying existence.
Fortunately, she treated Xiaohong as a pet just now.
………
Finished breakfast.
After handling the day's official correspondence, Tang Jing came to the Wilderness Temple.
"Hey, this hall looks so familiar. I wonder where I've seen it before?"
Although he is just a cub, Xiaohong says some surprising words from time to time. He seems to be the reincarnation of some ancient power, and he knows many ancient secrets, but his memory is incomplete.
"Where have you seen it?"
Tang Jing was very curious, could it be that the Savage Temple still had a great history?
"I don't remember..."
"...Then let's talk about a hammer."
Tang Jing ignored Xiao Hong and immediately spent 250,000 kill points and 275,000 gold coins to summon 2,000 Chiyou warriors, 500 Houyi warriors and 2,500 Demon Tiger Cavalry.
They were reorganized into the Mighty Brigade and the Flying Bear Brigade, all of which were placed under the Guards Division.
in this way.
The Guards Division has finally reached full strength.
It is said that it is at full strength, but the rest is not very accurate. For one thing, the brigades under the Guards Division still have five battalions, and they still need to make up for three infantry battalions and two cavalry battalions.
Tang Jing wanted to make up for it, but the kill value had been exhausted.
In addition to the 5,000 wild warriors incorporated into the Guards Division, he also summoned an additional 250 Feilian warriors to supplement the newly formed 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th divisions.
Secondly, the five thousand newly recruited wild warriors were not equipped with uniform armor or bright light armor.
The Shenwu Brigade and the Xiongwu Brigade under the Sanze Guards Division are still operating in the Beiluo Mountains.
Doomed to be unable to participate in the major counterattack.
All in all, the Guards Division at this time was only in a semi-lame state.
As soon as he was summoned, Tang Jing spent a total of 300,000 gold coins on the spot, instantly reducing his million-dollar deposit by one-third.
“You really can’t help but spend money.”
Tang Jing shook his head helplessly. The Savage Warriors are great, and burning money is really burning money.
This is just the formation of a division.
In the future, if you want to upgrade the Guards Division to a Guards Corps, the cost will be even higher.
………
Let the newly reorganized Mighty Brigade and the Flying Bear Brigade return to their ranks, and appoint Tu Xiao as the commander of the Mighty Brigade and Hu Chen as the commander of the Flying Bear Brigade. Tang Jing then went to the Mingde Gate Tower in the north.
Starting yesterday.
The coalition's attack was even more fierce. With the assistance of mobile arrow towers, trebuchets and other siege equipment, they launched continuous attacks on Chang'an City from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
In an attempt to bring down the Chang'an garrison.
Many areas of the moat outside Chang'an City have been filled in, partly intentionally by the coalition forces, and partly due to falling rocks and logs from the top of the city.
As for the corpses of fallen soldiers, there is a 24-hour refresh mechanism.
There was no tragic scene of corpses strewn everywhere.
Perhaps, it is precisely because the corpses will be refreshed that the coalition generals at all levels are more indifferent to the lives of coalition soldiers and simply regard coalition soldiers as consumables.
It can be said that he has a heart of stone.
Tang Jing observed at the top of the city for a while, and then left with peace of mind. At first glance, the offensive of the coalition forces seemed scary and lively, but in fact it was difficult to pose any real threat to the Chang'an defenders.
If the mobile arrow tower and trebuchet dare to get closer, they will be smashed to pieces by the bed crossbow.
Moreover, with the few archers of the coalition, even with the cover of mobile arrow towers, it is difficult to suppress the offensive from the crossbowmen at the top of the city.
The disadvantages are very obvious.
The coalition forces attacked the city very fiercely, and more than half of the soldiers fell on the way to the charge.
What threat can it pose?
Those responsible for guarding the city in Chang'an include the 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th divisions as well as the Chang'an garrison division. There are nearly 30,000 defenders on each city wall, and they can take turns.
I have no fear at all about the so-called fatigue tactics of the coalition forces.
As for the consumption of Chang'an's defense supplies, that's a joke. Chang'an City is full of stone and wood, and the Ordnance Department is manufacturing arrows around the clock.
No fear at all!
Rather than saying that the coalition forces are attacking the city, it is better to say that Chang'an is deliberately taking advantage of the city wall to continue to consume the combat effectiveness of the coalition forces and prepare for a subsequent major counterattack.
The identities of hunter and prey have been quietly exchanged for a long time.
This is not to say that the alliance is stubborn or that the coalition forces are too stupid, but that they are almost ignorant of the many trump cards held by Chang'an.
Within the Aztec Alliance, the highest territorial level is the first-level county.
Of course I don't know.
After the territory is promoted to a county town, there will be a super-level recruit camp.
Not to mention super-level recruit camps, like Gale's Xihai County, there are already high-level recruit camps that can be transferred to second-level soldiers, but there is no large number of transfers within the coalition forces.
Why?
First, the coalition is too large and cannot raise enough transfer fees.
If a million coalition troops change jobs, that's three million gold coins.
Second, even if you change jobs, you still can't raise enough armor, shields and other equipment to arm second-level warriors, so you can only give priority to transferring some elites.
These elites were hidden by the coalition forces and were sacrificed in preparation for the general offensive.
as a secret weapon.
Apart from the trump card of the super-level recruit camp, Gale knew that Tang Jing had taken the hidden building token, but how could he know that what Tang Jing had obtained was the Crystal Source Evolution Tower?
There is also the Savage Temple.
If the Alliance knew that the soldiers who died on the city walls of Chang'an were quietly transformed into Chang'an's new fighting force, it would probably be too late to cry.
The extreme asymmetry of information doomed the coalition's efforts to be futile.
While the coalition forces were still excited about finally having second-level warriors, the Chang'an Army had already begun a large-scale shift to third-level warriors.
The gap in combat power between them is not getting closer, but getting farther and farther.
………
Next five days.
While the coalition forces were attacking the city on the front line, they were also adjusting their deployment in the rear.
Chang'an City is still a ruthless meat grinder.
Within the Aztec Alliance, in the past half month, in view of the unprecedented pressure brought by Chang'an, some changes have actually taken place within the alliance——
The annexation of territories at the village and town levels is accelerating.
There is another big climate here, which is——
Due to the limitation of territory area, not every village-level territory can be promoted to a third-level village. It is very likely that the territory that has just been promoted to a second-level village will border and intersect with other territories.
Even after being promoted to a village, I found that there was no unclaimed land around for expansion.
Competition is very fierce.
This leads to the saying that once village and town territories become mainstream, it is imperative to annex each other.
Once upon a time, some lords of Zunlong Kingdom wanted to take advantage of the loopholes. For example, three adjacent village-level territories had decided to integrate each other and prioritize them.
But the merger is not actually implemented.
The purpose is to promote all three territories to third-level villages in order to obtain the population, gold coins, materials, etc. rewarded by the system when the territories are promoted.
It's like trying to get rid of the system.
As everyone knows, there is a rule in the lord rules of "Star Bound", that is, "when there is a territorial dispute between the territory and the surrounding territories, promotion cannot be carried out", which has blocked this loophole in advance.
As a result, neighboring territories can only choose to annex each other to determine a winner.
This general climate, coupled with the external pressure from Chang'an, and the interaction of internal and external factors, contributed to this wave of mergers within the Aztec Alliance.
Of course, this is not unique to the Aztec League.
Other countries have almost entered the stage of territorial annexation.
The difference is.
Because the Aztec Alliance faced external pressure, by chance, it embarked on a path of annexation with the characteristics of the Dragon Kingdom, with a lot less bloody conflicts and a lot more "warmth and tenderness".
A wave of internal friction was avoided.
Since it has to support millions of coalition troops, the alliance really cannot afford the internal strife.
It can be considered a blessing in disguise.
Not only that, in order to avoid internal strife to the greatest extent, some Aztec lords have proposed to study the establishment of a three-level lord council of counties, provinces and alliances based on the large-scale merger of villages and towns.
Establish a bottom-up, relatively broad decision-making and discussion mechanism.
It's very Aztec.
However, because the interests involved are too deep and the scope is too wide, this proposal is currently just a proposal and has not yet received response from the mainstream Aztec lords.
otherwise.
In the matter of conquering Chang'an, the alliance will not be in disarray every day.
