Deep in the palace, which was completely composed of ashes, two groups of gray-green light lit up, and a cold female voice came from them: "Brother Wang, I ask you to be my finance minister. I am not asking you to ask questions, but
If you want to help me solve my problems, if I have to deal with everything myself, what’s the use of me having you?”
Although Narentoya's voice was not high-pitched, it was accompanied by a cold wind.
A cold wind that directly freezes one's soul.
Prince Jean Zana shivered involuntarily, wiped the non-existent cold sweat, and responded repeatedly: "Yes, Her Majesty the Queen is absolutely right. I have already expected this situation. After all, the total population here is
It’s a given, so I came up with several solutions.”
"Tell me about it." Queen Narentoya said again.
"The first method is to raise sheep in confinement. In a short period of time, we cannot cover the entire East Odin grassland under the sacred sanctuary. Most of the grasslands are barren there, and the plague that has enveloped here has begun to dissipate.
, can we drive some tribal herdsmen back, let them continue to graze here, and let them pay taxes in the form of corpses and bones?
In this way, we will have a stable financial source. This is the long-term solution. However, this method is not only slow to achieve results, but also contains a lot of dangers. Before the sheep are completely tamed, they may
To counterattack, we need to use sacred sanctuaries to form a huge fence to isolate them in different cages."
The sheep mentioned by Prince Zana are naturally not the real sheep, but their former tribesmen, the Odin orcs.
After they were transformed into the undead, their concepts were also changing subtly. They gradually no longer regarded humans as the same kind, but equated them with the sheep, and they became higher-end predators.
"Have you chosen a captive target?" Queen Narentoya's voice was neither sad nor happy, making it difficult to understand her true thoughts.
"I have selected several tribes that are in dire straits. I believe it is not difficult to persuade them to accept our goodwill, unless they want to perish." Prince Zana said with a trace of hesitation on his face, "It's just...
…”
"Just what?" Narentoya's voice revealed a hint of displeasure, "Don't be hesitant. If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
"For this kind of thing, it's best to send military support. It's the safest." Prince Zana answered truthfully.
"I will dispatch 30,000 elites to you. If you can't handle this matter, I will ask you." Queen Narentoya said neatly, "If it is done well, I will pray to the goddess to give you the sacred fire to make it happen."
It’s not impossible for you to go further.”
This is a typical combination of kindness and power.
Prince Zana has often used this trick before, but at this moment, Prince Zana still had unconcealable fire in his eyes, and asked: "Is it really possible?"
Queen Narentoya snorted coldly: "Are you questioning my ability? Or are you questioning the power of the goddess?"
That biting coldness began to pervade the place once again.
This time it wasn't just Prince Zana who felt like a thin layer of ice was spreading rapidly around him.
Not only is the empire of the undead growing in power, but Queen Narentoya's strength is also growing, and she can easily kill them all with just a thought.
"Your Majesty, the Queen, forgive me!" Prince Zana hurriedly knelt on the ground and explained repeatedly, "I never meant this. I was just too excited and was talking nonsense. Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best to complete this."
task."
"Get out of here!" Narentoya took back her thoughts. She had been using Prince Zana quite smoothly in the past few years, and she didn't want to replace him just because of his words. The Empire of the Undead never lacked warriors and warriors who charged into battle.
Cannon fodder, but lacks people with brains like Prince Zana, "Didn't you just say you have several plans? Where are the remaining ones?"
"The other way is to start with that idiot in Ulan Baz. Once they start attacking the Bloody Fortress, they will definitely not be short of corpses." Prince Zana continued to offer advice.
"No matter how stupid Ulan Baz is, he will not hand over the body of the soldier to us? Not to mention that there are smart people like Skambaz next to him!" Queen Narentoya said coldly.
"If they are simply asking for it, of course they will not give it to Ulan Bazhi. After all, we are only temporarily suspending the war." Prince Zana sneered, "But their situation is beyond their control. If they can't break through the broken pulse defense line this time, they will be hungry.
It will cause them to fall apart.
We can sign a further cooperation agreement with them. As long as they are willing to put all the corpses at our disposal, we can provide them with certain military support and even help them break through the broken line of defense.
The possibility of Ulan Bage breaking through the Broken Vein Defense Line alone is very slim, and I believe Ulan Bage himself knows this very well.
If we cooperate well, we won't even need to spend a single soldier, there will be a steady stream of corpses, expanding our military strength."
"This is indeed a good method, but the time is not right now." Queen Narentoya said flatly.
"Isn't the time right?" Prince Zana was stunned and didn't fully understand.
"Ulanbari has not been forced into a desperate situation yet. When they are in a desperate situation, they will come to us again without us taking the initiative." Narentoya was full of confidence in her words, "When the time comes, we will take the initiative.
The power is in our hands."
"Your Majesty the Queen is wise. It turns out that Your Majesty has thought of this method a long time ago. It is me who has made a fool of myself." Prince Zana admired sincerely.
"It's pretty good that you can think of this. Are there any other plans?" Narentoya quite enjoyed the compliment.
"The third option, in fact, your Majesty is also aware of it, is to find other targets to continue the war. As long as we keep fighting, we will have a steady supply of materials and troops." Zana continued, "Your Majesty sends Chagan and Oritandu
Isn’t it just to go south to find new prey?”
"Brother Wang is indeed a smart man. Nothing can be hidden from your eyes." Queen Narentoya did not deny it. "Calculating the time, Brother Wang should have a preliminary confrontation with the leader of the Yongye Army.
, I don’t know how to win or lose!”
"I can answer your Majesty's question." A tall man with a strong cold air walked in quickly. Behind him, there was a large group of gray bone knights rushing forward, trying to intercept him.
Obviously, he was directly charging into the palace.
"My Lord General, you barged in so recklessly, do you have good news to tell me?" Narentoya's tone revealed deep displeasure.
She likes the order of hierarchy and does not like this kind of reckless behavior, even from Prince Iribis who was the first to unswervingly support her.
"I'm sorry, Her Majesty the Queen, I don't despise your dignity, but the situation is urgent." Prince Iribis bowed respectfully, and then said impatiently, "The Bone Eagle has just brought back the news that the Yongye Army has led a large scale
Send out troops to attack our sacred sanctuaries. We destroyed five sanctuaries half a day ago. General Chagan and General Oritandu are afraid of disaster."
Prince Zana on the side screamed, with a face full of shock: "Destroyed five sacred sanctuaries in a row? How is it possible? Ordinary people entered the scope of the sacred sanctuary and couldn't even find the road. How could it be possible to find it so easily?
The location of the sacred sanctuary? Not to mention that there is a guardian with powerful power given by the goddess! Is your information wrong?"
Iribis sneered and retorted: "How could there be any mistake in the news brought back by the Bone Eagle? If your Majesty does not believe it, you can personally check the news brought back by the Bone Eagle."
As soon as Iribis sent him off, the bone eagle on his shoulder immediately flapped its wings and flew towards the depths of the Palace of Ashes.
A gray-green light suddenly swept across.
The bone eagle had not flown very far when it fell to the ground with a chirp.
The soul fire in its body has been swept away by the gray-green light just now.
After a few seconds, Queen Narentoya's voice came out again, "So that's it. This time we underestimated our opponent. I didn't expect that a military leader who had just been established for a short time could use magic to such an extent.
To this extent, they are indeed the orthodox survivors of the Andis Empire. It seems that the rumors that they have obtained the inheritance of the Andis Empire are true!"
The investigation methods of the Undead Empire are also much more powerful than ordinary people imagine.
They do not deliver messages through undead birds delivering secret letters; these undead birds themselves are the carriers of the messages.
The undead can read the memories carried by undead birds by directly swallowing the soul fire in their bodies, just like seeing them with their own eyes.
What this bone eagle brought back was not only the news that the Yong Ye Army Leader had defeated the five towers, but also brought back part of the war process, giving Narentoya a certain understanding of the strength of the Yong Ye Army Leader.
"Please also ask Her Majesty the Queen to allow me to mobilize troops to support." Prince Izibisi asked, "I'm afraid that the other party will not only be satisfied with eating the vanguard army led by General Chagan and General Oritandu, but also take advantage of the situation.
Destroy the shelters along the way, and then our efforts will be in vain."
"How many troops does the general need? How are you going to fight this battle?" Queen Narentoya asked.
"Your Majesty only needs to give me ten elite legions, and I will fight them back to the mountains!" Iribis replied.
"Stupid!" Queen Narentoya scolded sternly, "How can you be so careless even if you know that the other party has the ability to destroy the sanctuary? The top priority now is to find out their true strength, curb their advancement, and fight back.
It won’t be too late until we have detailed information about them. The world is far bigger and more dangerous than we imagined. We can’t let a momentary victory get to our heads.”
"Yes, your Majesty is teaching you a lesson." Iribis bowed his head and accepted the order, "I will send more bone eagles out right now, just to intercept them."
"I will send five elite legions to you, and you will mobilize ten ordinary legions from various places." Queen Narentoya did not fully meet Izibis's request. The elite gray bone legion is her foundation and cannot be fully
Taking the time, "Your main task is to temporarily contain the opponent's advance. Don't attack easily. Try to investigate the situation of General Qian and General Oritandu as much as possible."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Iribis's eyes flickered, and he bowed and accepted the order.
Just like when he came, Prince Iribis walked away quickly with a ball of flame, without even looking at Prince Zana, let alone saying hello.
Although they are now ministers of the same palace, it does not mean that the hatred they had during their lifetimes has been wiped out. Some things are engraved in their souls.
"Brother Wang, please go down too. I will give you full authority to implement the captivity plan, so hurry up." After all this fuss, Queen Narentoya was obviously not in the mood to talk about other government affairs.
"As ordered." Prince Zana bowed and retreated. From an angle that the other party could not see, his soul fire jumped slightly. He was obviously calculating the impact of this unexpected incident on the Undead Empire.
After everyone retreated, the Palace of Ashes returned to a cold state again, but the aura coming out of it was not without half-dead vitality. On the contrary, it was a feeling of high vitality.
This feeling in this environment gives people a different kind of weird feeling.
Although the advance of the Yongye Army leader gave Queen Narentoya a little shock, it was far from as big as imagined.
After all, the Empire of the Undead has passed its weakest period. They cannot be shaken by knocking down a few towers of ashes and destroying two undead legions.
Compared to other ignorant high-level undead, Queen Narentoa is more aware of the difficult road she is embarking on and what difficulties and obstacles await them in the future. Now is just one of the roadblocks.
The reaction of the Undead Empire was not untimely.
But the Eternal Night Army led the advance faster, and waited until their undead army was mobilized.
The four legions led by the Yongye Army cooperated with each other and crazily advanced 200 kilometers southward, demolishing a total of eighteen of their ashes towers.
Then they began to retreat in an orderly manner.
Not only because the Undead Empire reacted, but the army began to press upward.
Also because of their fighting style, they rely too much on logistical supplies. The faster they advance and the longer the battle line is, the heavier the pressure on logistical supplies will be.
Sean and the others knew very well that they had taken advantage of the Undead Empire's contempt for the leader of the Eternal Night Army.
Once the Undead Empire pays attention to them, the other side will have an absolute advantage in terms of military strength.
Relying on the northern defense line for defensive counterattack is their best choice.
What's more, in this blitzkrieg that lasted less than a week.
The Yongye Army Leader has gained what they wanted.
Even if Sean used the power of law to arm the four legions to the teeth, he still had more than 20,000 points of power of law left.
This is enough for him to do many, many things.
For example, all the flags of other main battle legions were upgraded to the heroic spirit flag. Although it was the lowest grade, it at least provided a safety guarantee for the soldiers.
For example, further research on the soul fire, especially on using it as the core to create engines. Once this matter is confirmed, the impact on the future of the Eternal Night Army will be no less than the development of consciousness space.
Even the research on plane space magic arrays can be more bold in some methods and measures.
A long time ago, Sean knew that the power of law is a special stabilizer, especially in the research of tearing apart plane barriers, it has a powerful stabilizing effect.
In the past, due to limitations on the source of the power of law, this research could not be carried out at all.
Of course I don't have any worries about this now.
