Chapter 147: Izumo Messenger

Kitetsu's victory was a great morale boost on the Eastern Front, but it was a great shame for the Izumo Empire.

Occupy an absolute superiority in troops, but the first battle was defeated, and countless grains and grass were burned by someone, and the Izumo Empire was boiling!

The specific manifestation is that the 500,000 troops hoarded on the border of Gama Izumo began to attack the Gama Empire in an all-out way.

On that border, countless war drums were beaten, and countless Izumo armies were like a tide of destruction, surging towards the border cities of the Gama Empire!

With only 180,000 troops on the Eastern Front, the Garma Empire struggled to face an enemy force three times its size.

Judging from past examples, the defenders have the upper hand. Often, a strong city can be attacked by enemy forces several times its size, and it will take a month to conquer it.

And a dangerous hurdle is even more of a pass, and it is impossible to open it! Sometimes, a 100,000-strong army may not be able to capture it for a year.

What's more, the strength of the Gama Empire has not yet bottomed out, and it can at least put another 200,000 troops into the Eastern Front. Together with the original 180,000, the total is 380,000. In the face of the offensive of Izumo's empire, he can barely gain a foothold......

The war is spreading, and the two sides are throwing more and more troops into the battlefield, and the intensity of the war is also increasing.

Every day, I receive battle reports from Anbei City, which contain only the number of casualties and the gains and losses of the city passes—but I know that behind the cold numbers are countless corpses that have also cooled down.

Looking down at today's battle report, it has been a month since Mu Tie sneak attacked Shangchen City, and the battle report is another defeat.

The Garma Empire lost another city.

But instead of feeling frustrated, I grinned.

Because the letter also contains another message: after the Izumo army received its last reinforcements four days earlier, there were no more troops to enter the battlefield of Izumo - and the Eastern Front estimated that the Izumo army numbered around 700,000.

This means that the Izumo Empire has put all its mobile forces into the battlefield with the Gama Empire!

My project is finally able to start in earnest!

Putting away the letter, I looked at the two snake-man girls standing next to me, the same two people that day.

These days, there are too many letters from Anbei City, sometimes more than ten in a day. As a queen, Yuemei naturally can't send me in person every time, so the task of delivering the letter falls to them.

"Let's go, I'm going to meet Yuemei."

I walked in front, and the temple was made entirely of black rock, so the floor, walls, and ceiling were all black, giving it an oppressive feel.

"Your Majesty, our country has sent troops to attack the Gama Empire in accordance with the Covenant. But why did your people delay sending troops south? ”

When I came to the front of the temple, Yuemei usually discussed a large hall, and before I could enter, a question came from inside.

Is this - the Izumo messenger?

The Izumo Empire had already formed an alliance with the Snake People Clan, and the two sides were going to join forces to fight, so they naturally sent envoys to settle in the Snake People Holy City.

However, he is not qualified to live in the snake temple like me, so he can only find a better courtyard in the city as the "Izumo Empire's embassy in Tagore".

And this messenger is really not easy. After all, the snake people made an agreement with the Izumo Empire to attack the Gama Empire together.

As a result, now the Izumo Empire has been fighting with the Gama Empire for a month, and tens of thousands of soldiers have been killed and wounded. However, the snake people still confronted the Garma Empire on the border and did not start a war for a long time.

As the "ambassador to Tagore", it is his duty to urge his allies to implement the covenant, and it is really a great responsibility!

Especially when Yuemei shirked and made up all kinds of messy reasons, he still had to endure and not laugh......

"Your Excellency, it's not that this king is unwilling to go south, but that he is not ready to carry his baggage."

"The passes on the Gama border are dangerous, and if our people want to go south, they must prepare a large number of siege equipment. But our race is not as ingenious as the human race, and although the siege equipment has been being built, it is far from finished......"

"Your Majesty, your clan won't have built any siege equipment, right?"

The voice of the Izumo messenger was low, and he said, "Your Majesty...... You don't want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, right? ”

I raised my eyebrows, and the Izumo messenger actually said such a thing? It seems that his patience has been exhausted by the snake people.

It's a pity that the snake people are not a civilized country, and they pay attention to "two countries are at war, and they don't kill them". When his patience ran out, so did his life.

"Her Majesty naturally doesn't want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight."

I stepped into the hall, which was empty, with only one man standing in the middle.

The man was over forty years old, with a large build, a bare face and a short beard, which was obviously cultivated, and looked very capable. He wore a crown of cranes on his head, wore a red silk robe, and held a knot in his right hand, standing in the middle of the temple, and he was heroic.

It's just that when he turned his head to look at me when he heard the sound, he saw that I didn't have a snake tail, and I was clearly a human race. His complexion changed, most of his heroic spirit was gone, and he asked in a hurry:

"Your Excellency...... Who is it? ”

I smiled and looked at him, this is the messenger of the Izumo Empire?

Tsk, worthy of being an envoy of a country, just this appearance is dignified, not falling into the demeanor of a country.

"Your Excellency the Izumo Emissary, you should have heard of me, I'm named Nalan Ye."

The Izumo envoy's face changed again, and he looked at me with a stunned face, and said in disbelief:

"Nalan Ye, you...... Didn't you die outside the Fox Pass? How are you, alive again?! ”

He turned his head to look at Yuemei who was sitting on the throne, and there was no trace of surprise on her face, just a cold look down at him.

He was able to be sent by Emperor Izumo to envoy the snake people, so he was naturally not stupid, and immediately understood the key to this.

His face turned pale, and cold sweat broke out from his forehead, and he said with difficulty: "You, the snake people, actually formed an alliance with the Gama Empire first?" ”

"This war is a hoax at all!"

I laughed, nodded and said, "Your Excellency is not stupid, just a little bit." ”

"Then, Your Excellency the Envoy should also understand the situation of the Izumo Empire at this time, right?"

"You have invested 700,000 troops in the Izumo Gama battlefield, and the country is already empty."

"And the snake people have gathered a million troops, and they can go south at any time to invade your country, the Izumo Empire, and die!"

I walked towards the messenger, walked beside him, smiled lightly, and said, "I see that Your Excellency is very wise, and I can't bear to destroy Your Excellency with the Izumo Empire, and I would like to give Your Excellency a way out." ”

"Your Excellency, would you like to descend to this world?"

The messenger looked at me suddenly, like a drowning man finding a life-saving straw, and hurriedly asked, "Really?" ”

I smiled slightly, a look of confidence on my face. This guy can act as an emissary, and his status in the Izumo Empire should not be low, if he can be recruited and let him act as a leading party, this battle will definitely be a lot easier.

Although under my plan, the snake people invaded the territory of the Izumo Empire, which was empty of troops, with hundreds of thousands of troops, the battle was already secure.

But on the battlefield, the situation is changing rapidly and confusing. It's just a matter of two words of speech that can add an extra layer of insurance to this war, so why not?

"I am the son of the Nalan family, and the future patriarch of the Nalan family is naturally qualified to keep you safe and worry-free."

"Not only you, but also your family—as the first person to descend to the Garma Empire, our country will treat you very well. Your family will also have a place in the future Gama Empire! ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward."

When the messenger heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he staggered toward me, as if to bow and give thanks. But when he walked three steps in front of me, he suddenly turned on his fighting energy, and the Great Dou Master's cultivation suddenly exploded!

He glared at me angrily with a pair of tiger eyes, and with a strong fighting spirit in his hands, he smashed down on my head and shouted:

"If you dare to insult me, you won't die quickly!"
