Chapter 472 Battle of the Royal City
Soon, after gathering soldiers centered on the 1st, 4th and 5th legions, the combined army of the Tribunal and King Qin's Army immediately set off and headed towards the royal city.
This time Sheila did not stay in the Guards like before. After all, she is now the emperor. Although this matter has not been rumored so far, only some senior officials know about it, but as the emperor of Hermann, of course it is impossible to She was put in danger again.
So now Sheila has become Duanmu Huai's follower - after all, there is no safer place than here.
Soon, as the Emperor Titan was activated, the entire army began to march towards the royal city.
As expected, the Council also reacted.
"They sent out a lot of soldiers."
Duanmuhuai glanced at the image transmitted back through the Valkyrie gunboat. As the army set off, he saw countless soldiers in golden armor appearing from the royal city and blocking the streets and city gates. At the same time, a square radiant barrier appeared on the royal city, covering the entire inner city.
"This is the royal family's defensive barrier."
Although he was a puppet emperor, as an emperor, Sheila still knew everything she should know, so she quickly explained it to Duanmu Huai.
"I don't know the specific principle. I only know that this is a barrier left by the Holy Demon Order that was here a long time ago to protect the core area. No one can break through this barrier and enter. Once they enter the barrier, their flesh and blood will be destroyed." It will be completely melted, leaving only the bones and armor...Only members of the royal family can open it. For now, the one who opens it should be my...mother."
Speaking of this, Silla's expression was a little gloomy. After all, she was her mother no matter what, but in fact, the other party had never treated her as her daughter since she was a child. Even when she was imprisoned by Stisse, her mother chose that man instead of her...
"So what you're saying is that even if you defeat them, you won't be able to enter the core area?"
Duanmuhuai frowned after hearing Silla's introduction.
"Is there any other way? For example, a secret passage or something?"
"Of course."
"That's no problem."
Duanmuhuai made a decisive decision.
"First we surround the entire royal city, then enter the palace via a secret passage, then you close the barrier, then we capture Prime Minister Stisser and members of the Council, and then we finish the work smoothly. Are there any problems?"
"…………No."
"Huh? You don't seem too excited?"
Seeing Silla's somewhat depressed expression, Duanmuhuai looked at her curiously, and the latter nodded.
"Yes, I actually regret it... If I had known that this would happen, I should have stood up earlier and told everyone about it..."
In fact, the reason why Sheila didn't say it out was very simple. After all, at the beginning, she was not sure what the nature of King Qinjun was. Although she was a canary in a cage, it did not mean that she was stupid. If this King Qin Army or the Tribunal has bad intentions, then he will be out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den.
But along the way, she also saw how the Tribunal and King Qin's Army helped Herman's people, and her inner worries gradually decreased - of course, even so, she was not able to tell her secrets casually.
Until now.
"There is no point in regretting, especially regretting something that has already happened."
Duanmuhuai glanced at Silla and withdrew his gaze.
"We don't know what Stisser is doing or what he has. We made a decision based on the intelligence we have and brought about the current result. This is enough. As for this result Whether it satisfies everyone is another matter.”
In fact, Duanmuhuai can understand Sheila's thoughts. In fact, many people are eager to foresee the future. However, in Duanmuhuai's view, it is meaningless to regret the settled reality. It's like if they had known that Stisser would kill all the residents of the city frantically, they would definitely attack the royal city directly instead of liberating other areas first.
But the problem is that they don’t know!
So that’s it.
What else can be done?
Of course, it’s not regret. The deal is done, and there’s no point regretting it. All we have to do is think of new countermeasures based on the current situation.
So, with the ability to foresee the future, can it be avoided?
Maybe.
But there may also be a completely different future, perhaps even worse.
If they could foresee the future and head to the Royal City with thunderous force, they might indeed be able to prevent the future of the Royal City being massacred. But maybe that Stisser would run away in the end, causing a catastrophe that would almost plunge the entire Herman Kingdom and even the world into crisis.
At that time, you may start to regret if you had not changed your future.
After all, there is a completely different difference between someone dying in a city and someone dying in a continent.
So you see, there is no point in regretting it. Even if you load the file and start over, it does not mean that you will get the ending you want.
Therefore, foreseeing the future is actually a very stupid thing. In Duanmuhuai's view, any kind of foreseeing the future is like forcing a choice on you in a free sandbox game.
If you don't have this choice, you may do whatever you want to do according to your own ideas.
But once you are given a direction, then your only choices are to follow the future, prevent the future, or ignore it... these three choices.
"Don't always think about taking shortcuts. What human beings have to do is to do what humans should do, do their best to know the destiny, and know the destiny without slacking off on the human affairs. Regret for an irreversible situation is stupid and meaningless behavior. Now we All you have to do is think about how to deal with it! ”
"………………"
Silla was startled when she heard Duanmu Huai's words, but she quickly cheered up and nodded vigorously. "I understand, thank you Lord Judge for the reminder."
"Okay, we have arrived at our destination."
As Duanmuhuai spoke, he looked forward - where the gate of the royal city was clearly visible.
"Attack!"
With Duanmu Huai's order, the battle... began.
Titan raised his arm, and the next moment, a blue plasma beam suddenly burst out and hit the city gate directly. With an earth-shattering explosion, the entire gate and the nearby city walls were destroyed. Then he saw the Leman Russ tank army and the Fourth Army rushing in, led by the Poison Sword heavy tank.
The ground attack adopts a cooperative infantry-tank combat method, which means that tanks are responsible for covering the soldiers for surprise attacks. Considering that this is street fighting in the city, this method is more suitable. Of course, strictly speaking, this kind of infantry-tank cooperative combat is not completely modern. After all, those soldiers are not holding firearms, but cold weapons. Only the mages behind them looked somewhat like a modern heavy firepower battalion.
But from Duanmuhuai's point of view, there's nothing wrong with it. Who said we can't cooperate with tanks in close combat? Melee combat is the bravest, most glorious, and proudest way to fight. Rather than being like those sissy shemale cowards of the Tau tribe who only dare to hold a gun and hide behind the robot and fire cold shots. What kind of skill is that?
A bunch of trash! coward! A fish-faced alien with no nose! A homeless bastard with a weird, wretched face who has no reason to exist!
Duanmu Huai swore that if he was allowed to encounter those damn bastards who shouted for the Greater Good in this world again, he would lead the Tribunal to destroy all the galaxies that had been defiled by these bastards, leaving no one behind.
But for now, let’s look at the battle in front of us.
Facing the powerful firepower of the Tribunal, the soldiers wearing golden armor did not show any fear. On the contrary, they rushed directly towards the army in front of them without hesitation! !
Immediately afterwards…………
"Boom boom boom!!!"
A series of explosions sounded, immediately engulfing all these soldiers in the explosion of flames. But this did not stop the followers. They continued to charge forward, passing through the smoke and the corpses of their companions, and rushed forward.
Then…………
"Boom boom boom!!!"
There was another series of explosions, but this time, the explosions did not come from armored forces.
"We are under attack!"
Soon, Maria's anxious voice appeared in Duanmuhuai's ears.
"What's going on?"
"Those soldiers seem to have some kind of special equipment, they can explode!"
Good guy, not only is he a soldier who is not afraid of death, he is even a self-destruction soldier?
It’s really troublesome…………
Duanmuhuai frowned, and then immediately issued the order.
"Contact An and Gu Leiya, and ask them to bring their magic troops to find ways to cover the firepower as much as possible, and also to capture a few alive!"
"Yes!"
An’s actions are not satisfactory, but…………
"We couldn't catch anyone alive."
Standing in front of Duanmu Huai, An looked helpless.
"Because they are all dead!"
As An spoke, Gu Leiya next to him took out a frozen soldier. Through the ice, everyone could clearly see that there was a rotten and shrunken soldier inside, which looked like a mummy or mummy. The face looks like a human being - just as An said, this is not a living person at all.
“Have you figured out how they work?”
"There is a part."
Hannah frowned and looked at the soldier in front of her with a bit of disgust.
"According to our research, the other party uses a technology that buries specially made metal into the corpse and then uses magic power to control it to a limited extent... Of course, this is indeed a type of magic technology. ………”
"What's the solution?"
"It's difficult. They only receive limited instructions, and their brains only have attack instincts. They can't think for themselves. If you want to eliminate them, you can only defeat the core..."
While talking, Hannah took out a metal ball.
"It's this thing, but it's buried in the bodies of these soldiers and is basically difficult to destroy."
"In other words, someone used this thing to control these dead people? So as long as we find this thing, can we release the control?"
"Theoretically? Since you can accept control, you should be able to release it."
"Good, I understand."
Hearing Hannah's answer, Duanmuhuai nodded, and then he looked at Silla standing aside.
"Okay, Your Majesty the Emperor, please lead the way."
