Chapter 435: The smoke rises again, and all parties intend
"Damn, hateful, hateful! They actually sent troops, they really dared to send troops!"
In the Eri Continent, the Imperial Palace of the Heavenly Dragon Empire, Long Ao, who was the previous emperor of the empire, was furious, and the golden glow flashing in his eyes from time to time showed how angry he was now, so that even his own fighting strength faintly appeared.
Long Zhan's face is also not good-looking, but at least he can remain calm on the surface, as the current emperor of the Tianlong Empire, decades of imperial career have already made his mind extremely firm, even in the face of no matter how bad the situation is, he can still do it without changing his face, not to mention that Long Zhan itself is a legendary high-level, and the strong strength close to the Holy Domain is also his greatest confidence.
Although Long Zhan also knows that if he is placed in the entire multiverse, his own strength is indeed nothing, but in the Eri Continent, he can definitely be called the top Being, as an emperor who manages all opportunities, while governing the country in an orderly manner, he can actually have such a powerful power, which can be said to be quite rare, it can be said that among the emperors of the Heavenly Dragon Empire, Long Zhan can definitely be called a number of Ming Jun.
In contrast, Long Zhan's father, who is also the last emperor of the empire, although during his reign, he also maintained the stability and development of the empire, but strictly speaking, he himself did not have much achievement, and the victory in the war decades ago can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, the biggest hero, the Qinglong Yun family, which has long since left the Tianlong Empire, and the relationship between Long Ao himself is actually not very big.
And more importantly, perhaps because of the delay in governing the country, Long Ao's own strength has not been very satisfactory. finally broke through to the legendary realm, but after that, he kept stumbling, even if he abdicated early and concentrated on cultivation, but his entry into the realm was still unsatisfactory. The strength improved quite slowly, and later, he was even surpassed by his own son Long Zhan Qingyi, although recently, after getting the help of that mysterious force, Long Ao's strength has finally been upgraded to the legendary high level. However, the gap with his son Long Zhan is still very obvious, and as for the Sacred Realm realm that he has been looking forward to for countless years, it is still so unattainable for Long Ao.
So over the years, Long Ao's temper has not been very good, and he is irritable and irritable. It's easy to get angry when you encounter the slightest unsatisfactory thing. Long Zhan also felt quite a headache about this, but there was no way to be mysterious, no matter what, Long Ao was his father, and Long Zhan himself knew that his father. It is indeed worthy of the name, and I am very proud all my life, and if I interfere too much, it will backfire.
"Actually, it's not a big deal, from Laxis's previous attitude, we should have expected her to do this, in fact, she didn't succeed this time, the Revenant Fortress is still in our hands, so even if the Dark Sun Empire sends troops, the threat to us is quite limited. Wait for Long Ao to calm down a little. Long Zhan patiently persuaded his father that although a new war had begun, at least the current situation was not very bad.
"Hmph, I'm not talking about Laxis and the Darksun Empire, these guys will do it. I'm not surprised at all. Long Ao said angrily, "The most hateful thing is that the Duran Kingdom, a small kingdom, actually dares to provoke the majesty of the Empire!"
Long Zhan was suddenly a little helpless, his father Long Ao's words were a little too much, although the Duran Kingdom is only a kingdom, but the comprehensive national strength is definitely not weak, even if it is not as strong as the three major empires, but among the many kingdoms in the Eri Continent, the strength of the Duran Kingdom is definitely one of the best. Although a few decades ago, the Duran Kingdom experienced a huge coup d'état, but after decades of steady development, the strength of the Duran Kingdom has grown very rapidly, if it were not for the restrictions of land area and population, as well as the constraints of the special geographical environment, if it continues to develop like this, the Duran Kingdom may really be possible, and one day it will become the Duran Empire!
But no matter what, Long Zhan knows very well in his heart that even with the current strength of the Tianlong Empire, it is still not to be underestimated for the Dulan Kingdom, especially the Dulan Kingdom not only borders the Tianlong Empire, but also relies on the Huiyue Empire, although this time the Tianlong Empire paid a lot of price and eased relations with the Huiyue Empire, but this time the Dulan Kingdom's sudden dispatch of troops, whether there is a shadow of the Huiyue Empire behind it, Long Zhan himself is not sure.
"Actually, as long as you don't involve the Huiyue Empire, it's not too difficult to deal with the Duran Kingdom. Long Zhan thought for a while and said, "After all, the Lionheart Plain is open, and although the army of the Duran Kingdom has good combat strength, it is not good at attacking and defending, as long as we take the initiative to send a large army to attack, it is easy to take the initiative." ”
"That's a nice thing to say, but the question is, where do we send a large army to take the initiative to attack now?" Long Ao snorted, and said very unpleasantly, "Other countries may not know yet, but don't we know yet?" Now more than half of the empire's jīng rui are basically trapped in that place, and over the years, the losses have not been light, the empire finally trained a batch of jīng rui, and soon replenished into that bottomless pit, if this is not the case, with the Duran Kingdom's little army, how can they let them show off their power in the empire!"
Long Ao said this, Long Zhan's expression was also very unsightly, after all, now he is the emperor of the Tianlong Empire, the country has been invaded, and the most humiliating thing is naturally him, but just like his father Long Ao said, today's Tianlong Empire, perhaps the comprehensive national strength is still extremely strong, but in terms of military combat power, it has indeed been affected a lot, but this is also a matter of no way, they are very clear about the whereabouts of those jīng Rui troops, but they are clear, if the force behind them does not let go, they absolutely do not have the courage to take the initiative to withdraw those troops。
If it weren't for this, with the strength of the Heavenly Dragon Empire and the arrogance of the Dragon War, how could it be possible to take the initiative to show favor to the two empires of Dark Sun and Huiyue, and even give up a considerable part of their interests, isn't it just in exchange for a period of relative stability? Now it seems that the Huiyue Empire seems to have succeeded, but the Dark Sun Empire obviously did not eat this set. As for the Duran Kingdom, the Dragon War was indeed very unexpected at first, but when you think about it carefully, it is reasonable.
"Actually, what I'm really worried about is not the Dark Sun Empire or the Duran Kingdom. Even if the empire now only has about half of the Jīng Rui troops left, these two countries alone are not enough to threaten the empire's foundation. Long Zhan said as he spoke, but his face couldn't help but show a hint of worry, "What I'm worried about is that this time the Dark Sun Empire and the Duran Kingdom will suddenly send troops. There may be some kind of influence behind it. ”
"What do you mean...... Blood Sè Abyss?" Long Ao also calmed down at this time, it was obvious that the previous emperor was still very jealous of this name, "But this is indeed very possible." If there is no one behind it, the Dark Sun Empire can be said, at least the Duran Kingdom definitely does not have the confidence to dare to take the initiative to start a war against the empire!"
Long Ao's face was very solemn, and he paused for a moment before he said, "In this case, the Blood Abyss is ready to deal with us?"
With the pride of the dragon's pride. It is indeed quite rare to show such a god in the impression of Dragon War, but this is also understandable, if his father Long Ao's guess is correct, then for the Tianlong Empire, for the royal Long family, it is indeed a very serious problem!
Although they only mentioned the blood abyss all along, in fact, both father and son knew very well in their hearts. What they are really afraid of is actually the former Qinglong Yun family! For Dragon War, to be more specific, then there is no doubt that it is Yunfeng!
Although for this situation, the Long family had long been mentally prepared. But when it is really about to be faced, it still feels a lot of pressure, if the original Qinglong Yun family, when it was in the Tianlong Empire, was faintly able to compete with the royal dragon family, then the current Yun family, it can be said that the Long family already needs to look up, if the two families have a full-scale conflict, there is no doubt that the current Long family will definitely not be the opponent of the Yun family!
Regarding this point, whether it is Long Ao or Long Zhan, or other high-level leaders of the Long family, they are very clear in their hearts, in fact, it is precisely because of this unwillingness that the Long family finally stood on the opposite side of the Yun family, as a royal family, it was actually surpassed by the vassal family, and this alone is absolutely unacceptable for the proud Long family!
So even if the friendship between him and Yun Feng was not shallow, but for the decision he made, Long Zhan still did not regret the slightest bit, as the saying goes, the dragon is not the enemy of the ants, and in the same way, the dragon cannot be friends with the ants! Yun Feng is too powerful, so strong that in front of him, Long Zhan can't help but feel that he is like a small ant!
Long Zhan felt that his feelings had also become a little excited, and he quickly regained his state of mind, and said to his father: "It is estimated that this should be the case, as far as I know, the eldest princess of the Duran Kingdom, Sissi, is one of Yunfeng's personal disciples, and this time the Duran Kingdom suddenly sent troops, and it must have been instructed by Sissi." ”
Long Ao nodded, although he didn't speak, but he still agreed with Long Zhan's judgment, a kingdom took the initiative to attack an empire, and it was the most powerful empire on the entire continent, such a heavy decision, as the patron saint of the Duran Kingdom, it was absolutely impossible for the eldest princess of Sissi to be unaware, maybe just like Long Zhan said, this was simply from Sissi's instructions.
"And on the side of the Dark Sun Empire, most of the Yun family has also been involved, otherwise, even if Laxis is bent on recovering the Revenant Fortress, under normal circumstances, she would not start a war with the empire so rashly. Long Zhan continued, "And if I'm not mistaken, the powerful Sanctuary Flame Demon beside Laxis seems to have been once accepted as a disciple by Yun Feng. ”
"Damn, it's really yīn's soul is not gone! Obviously, they have already left the Eri Continent, and they have quietly left so many followers, it seems that the Yun family has no intention of giving up the Eri Continent from the beginning!"
In fact, Long Ao also knows a little bit, the reason why his son Long Zhan can still quickly improve his strength while governing the country, among which Yun Feng's guidance back then is definitely indispensable! Whenever he thinks of this, Long Ao feels very tired, that Yun Feng was obviously just a waste material that couldn't even break through the tenth level. But now......
"Anyway, at least from the current point of view, the Yun family doesn't seem to have the intention of directly attacking us, if it's just the Dark Sun Empire and the Duran Kingdom, we can still handle it. Long Zhan saw that his father Long Ao's face was not very good-looking. So he opened his mouth and comforted.
"I hope so, but we can't be too careless, with the Yun family behind them, the Dark Sun Empire and the Duran Kingdom are probably not so easy to deal with. Long Ao actually put away his arrogance rarely, and said in a solemn tone. "If we can't, we'll have to ask the grown-ups to help. ”
Long Zhan nodded, this time the father and son were of the same opinion, Long Zhan knew very well in his heart that the Long family alone, even if it was with several other major families. Coupled with the strength of the entire Heavenly Dragon Empire, if the Yun family really wanted to deal with them, it would be impossible for them to deal with it, but at this point, the Long family had no way to retreat, and could only pin their hopes on that big force.
......
In the face of the provocation of the Dark Sun Empire and the Duran Kingdom, the Heavenly Dragon Empire attacked it at the first time. And it also successfully resisted the first wave of the opponent's attack, the Dark Sun Empire failed to capture the Revenant Fortress, and the Duran Kingdom was quickly blocked after attacking the territory of the Heavenly Dragon Empire. But in fact, these two encounters caused an uproar in the entire Eri Continent!
"The Heavenly Dragon Empire's counterattack is so powerless, what about their Jīng Rui Legion, why didn't they take the initiative to attack the Lionheart Plain?" "Huiyue Empire, Emperor George felt very incredible after receiving the exact news. After being provoked like this, the Celestial Dragon Empire was actually only passively attacking, which was really too strange! Thinking of the agreement that was signed not long ago, the Celestial Dragon Empire was actually willing to pay such a big price, just to ease the relationship between the two countries. Now that George thinks about it, maybe there may be something wrong in the Heavenly Dragon Empire!
"If that's the case, it might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity...... But if the judgment is wrong, the anger of the Heavenly Dragon Empire is not so easy to bear......" For a while, George couldn't help but feel a little entangled, wanting to take action, but he couldn't make a decision for a long time.
"Laxis probably knows something, but she's always been tight-lipped, and if you want to get news from her......" George couldn't help but shake his head, "It's hard, it's so hard!"
"No, you can't just say nothing, at least, with a little temptation, there should be no problem......" After careful consideration, George finally made up his mind and quickly summoned his confidant minister.
"Withdraw that legion on the border of the Lionheart Plains, so that the Kingdom of Duran can draw more troops. Another point is that we can give a certain amount of support to the Duran Kingdom through the guò merchant group, but keep in mind that the person who comes forward must not have an official identity, and try to be as secretive as possible. ”
The confidant minister was quickly ordered to leave, and George couldn't help but fall into a reverie: "So, next, dragon war, how are you going to deal with it?"
......
Screaming Plains, the Frost Burning Legion camp.
It is indeed a very incredible thing for an imperial empress to appear in person Laxis, which is so close to the front line, but considering the legendary high-level strength of Laxis itself, as well as the Sacred Domain-level Fire Demon Pet, there is nothing surprising, at least in terms of security, don't worry too much, the Sacred Domain-level Fire Demon, even in the entire Eri Continent, can be called the top powerhouse.
Considering that the Revenant Fortress not far from the Screaming Plains was lost in the hands of Laxis, it is completely understandable that Her Majesty the Empress wanted to recover this fortress in person, and besides, the entire Dark Sun Empire knew that in terms of military command ability, Her Majesty the Empress was definitely second to none, even if she was defeated by Yun Lan of the Yun family, Laxis was still a very outstanding military expert!
"What was the result of the last temptation? The strength of the Revenant Fortress should be roughly detected, right?" As soon as he arrived at the main camp, Laxis immediately gathered all the senior commanders of the previous battle and asked the question he was most concerned about.
"Yes, Your Majesty, it has basically been investigated, there are currently a total of 100,000 people stationed in the Revenant Fortress, of which 30,000 are the jīng heavy infantry of the 'Earth Fire Legion', as for the other 70,000 people, ......" The leading general hesitated slightly, but quickly continued, "The other 70,000 people should just be the regular legions of the Heavenly Dragon Empire. ”
Perhaps because he felt that such a troop arrangement was obviously a little abnormal, the leading general added again: "However, the strong man in the Revenant Fortress is very powerful, although he did not make a direct move, but according to the judgment of Lord Ganons, the other party is likely to be a strong man in the Holy Domain!"
"Oh, that's kind of interesting. When Laxis heard this, he couldn't help but laugh, "In such a strategic place as the Revenant Fortress, there are only 30,000 jīng sharp heavy infantry, the 'Earth Fire Legion'?
A cold light flashed in Laxis's eyes, and she quickly made a decision: "Three days, within three days, the Frost Burning Legion must make all the preparations for the attack, I want to see what the Dragon War is going to use to defend the Revenant Fortress!"
