Although the triumphant leader hated Chen Feng deeply, he was not a reckless and impulsive person.
During the gathering of the dragoons, he specially collected and analyzed the frontline intelligence from spies, especially the details of Chen Feng and the two decisive battles against Tartar and Antonio.
At present, it can be speculated that Monty King City has one million knights. This is a minimum estimate, and there may be more.
This growth rate has exceeded the expectations of the triumphant leader and made him feel incredible.
According to the information obtained half a year ago, when the Monty Empire was first established, there was a shortage of food and money, and there were only 150,000 forbidden troops. Today, in just six months, the number has increased several times.
Judging from their performance on the battlefield, in the two decisive battles, they defeated more with less, like a trained knights, not a nominal reserve.
Going to the battlefield means being ready to sacrifice your life for the country at any time, and the salary and bounty are very low. Generally, conscription is compulsory. Especially at this critical moment, when wars among hundreds of tribes are frequent and the mortality rate is high, no one is willing to do so.
Join the army.
However, the situation in the Monty Empire was contrary to common sense. Civilians and slaves were eager to join the army. The more war they fought, the more excited they became, vying for military merit and the chance to win the title of marquis or nobility.
In the end, they were forced to limit the number of recruits.
"How dare Chen Feng take the risk of letting the Frost Witch serve as the supreme commander of the country!
But the content of this new law is too advanced, especially the military merit system. I wonder how many years it is ahead of the papal theocratic system?"
When the triumphant leader was looking through the information, he happened to see the decree issued in the early days of the Monti Empire.
In addition to the declaration of freedom and equality, the most important thing is the military merit system, which is very strict and detailed. It is impossible to write such regulations without more than twenty years of practical experience.
In just half a year, the effectiveness of this new law has been proven.
Killing the wolf clan and the trouser clan is the best proof.
"Who is this Chen Feng? Is it true that Eastern civilization has far surpassed Azerothia?"
It was late at night, but the triumphant leader was still reading the collected information under the candlelight. His interest in Chen Feng was extremely intense.
"In the battle with the Tatar leader, we relied on the help of the dwarves to burn the elephant cavalry in deep pits. Then the forbidden army hidden underground came out to cover up and kill the orcs. We won by sheer force. There is nothing to say."
But when the triumphant leader turned to the battle between Chen Feng and Antonio, he suddenly froze and frowned.
"During the battle, half a million wolf cavalry were wiped out without even touching the knights. All this was done by the new army directly under the command of Commander Greenland."
The triumphant leader read this battle several times, but could not find any introduction to the new army.
"The so-called new army should be using the equipment from the East. How can he actually arm an entire army?"
The triumphant leader was completely panicked and realized that he could no longer compete with Chen Feng.
Instead of sacrificing the dragon cavalry in vain, it is better to draw a line and conquer. At least now it still has the strength to make Chen Feng feel afraid.
"Go and bring Dragon Girl to see me."
Having missed the opportunity to strangle the Monti Empire in its cradle, the triumphant leader had no choice but to surrender, pretending to surrender just like last time, hiding in the mountains and forests to secretly learn the Pope's system and magic.
It's the same this time, first retreat to the Dragon Clan's lair, explore the rules for using oriental weapons, and then send a large number of spies to find the location of the super arsenal.
Then, the new law promulgated by Chen Feng was implemented in the Dragon Clan.
It will take at most half a year to compete with the Monty Empire, and finally wait for an opportunity to annex it.
"Father, what are you looking for with your daughter? I shouldn't lie to you. I'm guilty. You can punish me however you want. Please don't put me in death row." Shuang Yi rubbed her little hands and didn't dare to look directly at the triumphant leader.
Eye.
"Do you want to marry that Chen Feng? Tell me the truth." The leader of Triumph asked calmly.
"Compared to marrying Chen Feng, I want to defeat him on the battlefield."
Shuang Yi clenched her fists, mistakenly thinking that this was a test from the triumphant leader, so she had to show her hatred towards Chen Feng in order to gain freedom.
"I will write a letter of resignation tomorrow, expressing my willingness to surrender to the Monty Empire, and will send you and Petersburg to Chen Feng, and then lead the army back to the Dragon Clan's lair."
The triumphant leader left his seat and put his hands on Shuang Yi's shoulders, "That's why I asked you if you are willing to marry Chen Feng? If you are not willing, I will find something else to pledge to the Monty Empire as a hostage."
"I am willing! Even if I am a hostage, I am willing!" Shuang Yi nodded his head.
Although she doesn't understand what's going on, the two clans are not at war but are getting married. This is the final result she has dreamed of.
"If you feel wronged, secretly go back to the Dragon Clan's lair. It will be your forever home." The triumphant leader handed her a few shuttle door scrolls.
He had secretly learned about the relationship between Chen Feng and Shuang Yi. They were very close and even better than he had imagined.
What's more, Shuang Yi risked his life to save Chen Feng many times. Considering this past kindness, Chen Feng should not really treat her as a hostage, otherwise, it would be too unbecoming of an emperor.
After explaining the funeral affairs, the triumphant leader sent a messenger to deliver the letter of surrender to Chen Feng, and then led the dragoons back to the lair overnight.
In the empty Petersburg, only Shuang Yi was left, dressed in a red dress, standing at the entrance of the city wall, waiting for the arrival of Chen Feng and the human knights.
"We haven't fought yet? The Dragon Clan is surrendering now?" Chen Feng accepted the letter of surrender and expressed disbelief.
He was ready to fight to the death with the victorious leader, but the other party returned him to Petersburg without a word and mortgaged the dragon girl Shuangyi to the Monty Empire as a hostage.
"Isn't this a trap? Even if the two tribes fight, the new army may not be able to defeat the dragoons." Greenland took the letter of surrender and glanced at it hurriedly.
"Immediately issue an edict saying that the human race's Emperor Chen Feng will marry the dragon girl Shuang Yi, and orders the leaders of hundreds of clans to come to the royal city to pay homage."
In this way, even if the victorious leader wants to pretend to surrender, he will not be able to do so.
"I'll do it!"
Greenland first issued an edict to all tribes, and then personally led a battalion of Tiger tanks to Petersburg to pick up the dragon girl Shuang Yi.
"Why is it you? I hate you, an orc witch. What about Chen Feng? It would be too insincere if you don't come to pick me up in person. I want to go back to the Dragon Clan's lair." Shuangyi jade bracelets were wrapped around her chest.
Wearing a bright red wedding dress, the cold wind blowing in the tower all night, but only waiting for Greenland, it is inevitable that I feel a little uncomfortable.
"Emperor Chen Feng is very busy with affairs, so sending me, the supreme commander of the Monty Empire, to pick you up is a great honor for you. I have specially mobilized the Tiger Tank Battalion."
Greenland casually threw the gold chain at Shuang Yi's feet, "Your Excellency Dragon Girl, your current identity is that the Dragon Clan is a hostage pledged to the Monty Empire. If you act mean, then I will send someone to tie you back all the way."
