Chapter 1008: Before the War
The atmosphere of the tavern suddenly became a little oppressive.
The strong man's words made everyone's faces become a little unsightly, and they began to drink with their heads bored.
Ever since the appearance of the Outer Heaven Demon Clan, these powerful people in Snow Man City have been extremely nervous, and they have made great efforts to collect information about this.
As they obtained more and more information, their fear of the Outer Demons became heavier and heavier!
This group of races, which are said to be from the outer world, does have many powerful means, whether it is cultivation or weaponry, it is enough to crush the natives of this world.
If it weren't for the fact that their foundation was unstable, their number was limited, and they had always been entrenched in Hewang Village for a generation, I am afraid that those powerful people in Xueman City would have left here with their family property a long time ago.
Even if this would cause huge losses, it was nothing compared to the destruction of the foundation.
However, with the formation of demon slaying legions in various places, after the major indigenous forces regarded the Outer Heaven Demon Clan as a target to be killed, the magnates of Xueman City suddenly saw a glimmer of hope, thinking that the Holy Dragon City would not be able to resist this strangulation at all!
In that case, there is no need for them to take the risk of withdrawing their property from Snow City.
But a series of events that happened later made the hearts of these powerful people hang again.
First, spies and adventurers continued to disappear near Hewang Village, and then Barguf led troops to recruit the Outer Demons, but was shocked by the other party's strong methods.
Barguf, who has always been known for his tough methods, can only camp outside the boundaries set by the Outer Heaven Demon Clan, and he does not dare to cross the line at all!
The news was transmitted back to Snowman City, which immediately disappointed the magnates who were waiting for the news.
As a result, within a few days, the empty Snow City was completely turned upside down.
Even Barguf's castle was burned to the ground, which can be described as a heavy loss!
In fact, a discerning person can know at a glance that this matter seems to be committed by an indigenous monk on the surface, but in fact it has nothing to do with the Outer Demon Clan.
Perhaps it was this method that the Outer Demons used to retaliate against Barguf's actions.
It's just that those powerful people have also been unlucky, and a turmoil in Snow City has caused their industry to suffer a lot of losses.
All these losses have naturally been pushed onto the Outer Heaven Demon Clan, so these powerful people in Snow Man City can be regarded as having enmity with the Outer Heaven Demon Clan to a certain extent!
But if it is because of this loss, it is not worth it to fight with the Outer Heaven Demon Clan, and it will even cause more losses.
Watching the fire from across the strait is a move that is in their interests.
And at present, part of the reason why these magnates are involved in the battle to defend the city is because the Holy Dragon City came too suddenly, and the troops were sent too quickly, so that these magnates of Xueman City did not have time to deal with it.
In addition, Barguv was both soft and hard, so they had to bite the bullet and agree to the request to assist in defending the city.
As for whether these magnates really sacrificed their lives to protect Xueman City when the battle occurred, it depends on the situation!
……
It was noon, the scorching sun was in the sky, and a long convoy was slowly marching, it was the First Legion of the Holy Dragon City that had set out to fight in Snow Man City.
To be precise, this army belongs to the First Army of the First Legion, the ace army of the Holy Dragon City!
The Loucheng warriors of this army have at least the strength of a third-level monk, and in an ordinary low-level Loucheng, they are all qualified to enter the monk team.
However, in the Holy Dragon City, the strength of a third-level monk can only become an ordinary Loucheng warrior in the First Army!
As for the current monk team, it is completely composed of lord-level monks, which can be called the elite of the elite!
It is precisely for this reason that the number of the Holy Dragon City monk team has suffered a large shrinkage, but it has become more refined!
Now the ranks of the First Legion are also followed by a team of dozens of monks, and once they join the battlefield, they will definitely become a nightmare for the enemy!
Relying on these tough residents of the building, coupled with a variety of sophisticated equipment, there is little suspense about the outcome of the battle.
However, this strong army is now a little troubled by the bad road under its feet.
The roads of this world, which are only suitable for primitive vehicles such as horse-drawn carriages, are rugged and extremely limited in width, which greatly reduces the speed of the Holy Dragon City Legion.
If it weren't for the special design of the vehicles in the Holy Dragon City, which could adapt to many harsh terrains, otherwise the travel speed would be much slower.
It's just that if you want to rush to Snow City within the scheduled time, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it.
Tyson didn't take this to heart, after all, Tang Zhen didn't limit the time, he just needed to take Snow Man City as soon as possible.
"General, I heard that our Loucheng is working on a kind of aerospace carrier, which can deliver troops in large numbers over long distances, I don't know when it will be put into use?
It's still comfortable to fly in the sky, marching on this kind of road, it's almost breaking people upside down! ”
A young Holy Dragon City officer turned his head and asked Tyson.
"That kind of thing will definitely not be used in a short time, you kid don't have to think about it, let's take the car obediently!"
Tyson replied casually, but his eyes stayed on the holographic screen in front of him, reading the military intelligence collected and collated, and constantly comparing what he was doing in combination with the map.
As the commander of the Legion, he had to know all this information.
Just by looking at the content of this map, you can gain insight into the battle plan of the Holy Dragon City, and obviously you will not be satisfied with such a place as Xue Manling.
In fact, Tang Zhen's goal was to directly control the entire Skyrim Province and facilitate the next plundering operation.
As for controlling the entire continent, although Tang Zhen has the ability to do it, he can't manage it at all, so he has no plan in this regard for the time being.
What's more, for the current Holy Dragon City, the resources of one province are enough to fill the appetite!
His gaze wandered around the map, and Tyson's gaze finally fell on Snowy City.
Through the real-time reconnaissance video sent back by the high-altitude unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, Tyson can clearly see that the snowy city has been guarded to the brim, and the city walls are full of dense soldiers.
But using this way of defending the city against the Holy Dragon City is simply sending you to death!
If Barguf is smart enough to break all his soldiers into pieces and launch a surprise attack by hiding among the city buildings and the mountains, he may cause some trouble for himself.
But now......
It is estimated that after a wave of attacks, the walls of Snow City will turn blood red!
Just as Tyson was contemplating his thoughts, a sudden burst of gunfire came from the front, making his brow furrow slightly.
"Why are there gunshots, what's going on?"
As Tyson inquired, a warrior soon reported that the front of the trail had been ambushed by the indigenous monks, numbering about a hundred, and had been cleaned up!
"Native monks, where did you come from?"
Tyson raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice.
"Judging by the items collected from the corpses, these ambushers are supposed to be followers of some indigenous deity, and they are acting insanely when fighting!"
Tyson nodded, his face returning to his usual indifferent look.
The followers of these indigenous gods are the first objects of the Holy Dragon City's vigilance, because compared to those indigenous forces, they are more stubborn and difficult, and with the support and encouragement of the gods behind them, they can do anything crazy.
The Holy Dragon City, which aims to collect the origin of the world and hunt the indigenous gods, will inevitably deal with these believers in the future, and it is the kind that sees blood with a knife!
"Be vigilant, speed up, I'll be in Snowy City early tomorrow morning!"
With Tyson's order, the speed of the army accelerated a few points again, and it continued to approach its destination!
