Chapter 171 Future Vision, Mixed Navy Fleet
Without giving the defenders much time, they lost the defense of the energy shield. A dozen legendary magic cannons immediately entered an over-limited state. Dozens of He fired an eighth-level elemental strike and hit the city gate instantly.
On the city wall, special defensive inscriptions lit up. Under the control of the magician, a nearly ten-meter-thick energy wall rose in front of the city gate
However, it was useless.
Boom, boom, boom——
In an instant, the energy wall was penetrated, and the remaining dozen or so shells hit the city gate directly.
Bang——
A big hole instantly appeared in the tall city gate. The terrifying bombardment continued unabated. It also took the soldiers behind the gate to refine together, and then flew hundreds of meters away. , penetrated dozens of buildings in a row, and then completely dissipated.
The black-armored warriors under the city wall, average mid-level extraordinary, climbed up quickly without the obstruction of the energy shield.
The dozens of meters high city wall couldn't stop them at all, but they climbed onto the city wall after a while.
At this moment, the airborne troops were fighting fiercely with the defenders on the city wall, disrupting the situation and buying time for their companions to land.
As more and more black-armored warriors entered the city, a more bloody and cruel battle began.
But to say it is intense, it is not too intense.
Because when the soldiers of the Evernight Empire gathered, the situation became one-sided.
In order to capture this main city, the Eternal Night Empire specially mobilized a sixth-level epic legion. The tens of thousands of other regular soldiers have also reached the level of the sixth-level imperial guard legion.
As for the servant soldiers, their strength is indeed inferior to that of the imperial army, but according to the system, they have all reached the elite level.
In this case, relying on the city and defense equipment, the alliance soldiers can defend it for a while, but once they fight head-on, it is completely impossible to defeat them.
At least for now, this garrison cannot be defeated.
"Death." A black-armored warrior said in a cold tone. As he waved his sword, an Alliance soldier fell down, staining the ground with blood.
The Alliance warrior next to him had bloodshot eyes and rushed forward crazily, trying to push back the Imperial warrior.
The long knife fell.
Slashed on the black armor, causing sparks to fly.
Didn’t break the defense.
"This..."
A look of astonishment appeared in the Alliance soldier's eyes, as if he couldn't figure out what this damn defense was about.
The imperial warrior glanced at him and showed a cruel smile. The long knife swept past, blackness suddenly appeared, and a head flew up.
With the empire's elite as the vanguard, the defense line of the city's defenders was directly penetrated.
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
The black-armored warrior roared and continued to kill the enemies in front of him.
Under the attack of the imperial soldiers, the defending army retreated steadily, with almost no resistance.
In less than one night, the entire city was completely destroyed, and unlike other border cities where the generals who defended the city ran away, all the generals who defended the city in Soco City remained.
This is not because they are brave and want to defend the city and fight to the death.
But it is a very real problem.
They tried to run away, but couldn't.
Different from the army of the undead and the army of monsters, the army attacking Soco City is the regular army of the empire. They are stronger and their commanders are more powerful.
So, the deployment is also more complete.
In this case, the defenders had nowhere to escape.
This time, the empire achieved remarkable results.
More than 50,000 enemies were killed, nearly 100,000 were captured, and less than 20,000 were lost.
Among them, a large part of the losses of the imperial army came from the servant soldiers.
There is no way, those elite elites of the empire are really too tough. With the strength of the defenders, it is not difficult to hurt them, but it is very difficult to kill them.
So, they can only target those servant soldiers.
But even so, judging from the battle loss ratio, the empire still has an absolute advantage.
Furthermore, this is a siege battle. To be able to have such an advantage in a siege battle, it can only be said that the strength gap between the two sides is indeed quite large.
After entering Soco City, the imperial commander quickly issued the same order. Except that they were not allowed to leave the city, life continued as usual.
For these ordinary people of the alliance, the empire did not carry out large-scale purges. Su Xingyu’s benevolent government still affects the empire to this day.
Of course, this does not mean that the Eternal Night Empire does not care about anything and just lets it go.
It’s just that the managers haven’t come yet and they don’t know how to manage it, so they just keep it as it is.
After the management staff comes with the team, they will definitely make changes. Let’s not talk about anything else. First, we must have faith, and it can only be the dark god.
In fact, this is also the empire’s plan for dealing with those conquered forces in recent years.
After all, there are so many forces and so many people, they can’t all be brought in, right?
This is simply unrealistic. It is impossible for them to manage it, and there are not so many resources to support them.
So for those forces that surrendered, there are only two main points of transformation, the first is to change their beliefs, and the second is to pay tribute.
Changing beliefs is for the sake of stability. As long as there are enough people who believe in the Eternal Night Cult, the empire will not worry about them rebelling.
Needless to say tribute, the empire is also short of money. If you have any good things, send them over as soon as possible.
As for the Hundred Nations Alliance in the Northern Continent, if they can successfully capture it, the solution will be similar.
After all, the Hundred Nations Alliance is so big that it can hold the Evernight Empire to death. If it is completely absorbed, it will only disrupt the situation of the empire.
For such a force, there are not many solutions.
Either absorb and assimilate, or let things go, or kill them all...
The first two are not suitable.
As for killing?
With the strength of the Eternal Night Empire, it is indeed possible. After all, they can cause undead natural disasters, and the human sea tactic has no effect on them.
But Su Xingyu is not a murderous person.
He will not hold back against those who resist, and will kill them when they should.
He will not carry out meaningless killings against his subjects who pose no threat.
Let’s start with the most basic values.
Even if these people of the kingdom do nothing but pray at home every day, they can still generate value, and it is a higher value than killing them and transforming them into skeleton warriors.
Use divine beliefs to control them, and establish the divine right of kings. After hundreds of years, when the people of the kingdom have fully adapted, it will no longer matter what the people in power above think.
The empire would not do it by killing the people of the kingdom wantonly, but it would have no burden to kill tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of nobles.
But it’s too early to say this now. We have just started fighting, and we haven’t even captured a few border cities. We don’t know how long it will take to capture the entire Hundred Nations Alliance.
A conservative estimate is that if the war starts in thirty years, if the war does not go well, it is not impossible to fight for a hundred years.
The situation has not even been opened, so it is really too early to start thinking about arranging them now.
......
When a full-scale attack was launched here, other places also followed suit.
The vast territory stretches the border between the two sides, which also facilitates the empire's attack.
In addition to ground attacks, there were also sea attacks, and the Empire also launched attacks.
Over the years, the empire has continued to expand its territory and finally touched other coastlines, so it also developed its own naval fleet.
Although purely from the perspective of the empire headquarters, their strength is somewhat unsatisfactory.
After all, the development time is too short, and the navy is a very time-consuming branch. In addition, the sea is not their combat strength, so their strength is not good, which is normal.
But if you add the affiliated sea tribe, the empire's navy is not weak.
It can even be said to be very powerful, not weaker than some sea players who specialize in sea combat.
Over the years, the affiliated sea clan has developed at an absurdly fast rate. Some time ago, it had established the Naga Kingdom and accepted the coronation of the empire.
The population of the headquarters has reached tens of millions, and the number of dark fishmen has reached nearly 30 million. As for the other servants of the sea tribe, they have already exceeded 100 million.
Compared with the fierce competition on the mainland, the competition intensity in the sea is very complicated, which can be said to be both high and low.
Why do you say that?
It’s high because there are sea tribes everywhere. Wherever they can survive, you can see the sea tribes.
To say low is because most of them are in the "tribal" era. Their weapons and equipment, social systems, etc. are relatively low-level and their level of civilization is low.
As long as you cross the threshold of the tribe and develop steadily for a period of time, you can basically crush 95% of the sea tribes.
As for the mainland, the level of civilization is too high.
They are all tough and very difficult to defeat.
Thinking about how Su Xingyu’s Yongye Empire has developed, it’s really damning that there are still two forces that can fight him.
In the sea, Naga and fish people have no restrictions on development, and no worries about social systems. They do not need to think too much, as long as they ensure that their people can have enough to eat.
In this case, their development speed was astonishingly fast, and the number of their tribesmen also increased sharply.
On several small islands near the northern seas, several huge fleets are stationed here. These are the fleets of the Hundred Nations Alliance. Their mission is to block the sea routes of the Eternal Night Empire.
Compared to the Eternal Night Empire, the Hundred Kingdoms Alliance has existed longer and has been in contact with the sea for a longer time. In addition, it has to face the Blood Empire on the other side of the sea all year round. Therefore, in terms of the establishment of the sea fleet, They are much more powerful than the Evernight Empire.
With the strength of their fleet, it is not difficult at all to blockade the Imperial Navy that does not show its fangs.
"It's so boring! Working here is really boring. There is nothing. The only downside is watching the natives fight." A naval soldier stretched and yawned, very excited depressed.
"You guys are not going to play with those natives again, are you? You are pretty good too. Those guys smell so bad, but you can actually swallow them!" Another navy soldier looked at him. He glanced at it and said with great admiration.
"Oh, don't mention it. If there is no other way, who would want to do this." The soldier sighed, feeling like he couldn't look back on the past, "It's better for the ladies in the kingdom, not only are they long She's beautiful, but also gentle and considerate. The people here look stronger than me, and their voices sound like wild pigs..."
"You should be careful. If you are caught by the captain, it will be easier than yours." Another soldier chuckled.
"Okay, okay, the captain won't care about such a trivial matter. We are all here, why don't we have some fun."
"That's right, everyone We have been "exiled" here, why don't we have some fun without affecting the mission?"
"I feel dizzy when I think about staying here for a long time, and I don't know what the situation is like at home. Like..."
"When I go back, I will definitely enjoy it..."
A group of navy soldiers sat around the table and discussed animatedly which region has better indigenous women. , where the food is better, and when can I go home.
The sea is vast and boring. When sailing on the sea, you can hardly see other scenes except the sea and the sky.
Compared to sailing aimlessly, being able to station on these small islands is actually pretty good.
At least they can bathe freely and eat local delicacies freely.
The only drawback is that they stayed a little longer.
Three years.
A fleet often needs to stay here for three years before returning to the kingdom to rest and rotate other fleets over.
Three years, such a long time, just thinking about it makes people feel desperate.
While chatting, there was a sudden explosion.
Boom——
The fire instantly illuminated everything in front of them, and the next second, they lost consciousness in the purification of the flames.
On the sea level, I saw several huge fleets approaching slowly. A series of terrifying energy cannons streaked across the sky, drawing dazzling arcs in the air, and attacked them head on.
The scale of the fleet is shocking. Each warship is like a moving war fortress, huge and powerful.
"Enemy Attack!!!"
In an instant, horrifying shouts spread throughout the entire port area. All alliance soldiers, no matter what they were doing, stopped what they were doing and copied Pick up your weapon and instantly enter combat mode.
The energy shield rose, the light pillar rose into the sky, and the dazzling light illuminated the vicinity of the island.
A magic cannon with a door mounted on the shore was activated and began to counterattack.
Boom boom boom——
“Damn it, what do the scouts do for food? The enemy fleet has arrived at the doorstep, but they haven’t found anything.” A naval general looked at the incoming energy. Cannon, roaring again and again.
The entire port area was in chaos.
No one thought that they would be attacked at this time.
This is unreasonable.
It’s not that they think the Eternal Night Empire won’t attack them.
It's because they have set up a defense line. As a result, there is no news from the early warning defense line, and the enemy's fleet has arrived at their doorstep first.
My heart is full of confusion and anger, but the most important thing at the moment is to defend the port and then fight back.
However, it's not that simple.
"Roar——"
A figure as huge as a mountain emerged from the sea, smashed the energy shield with one head, and spat out a strong poisonous mist from its mouth, covering the entire ship in an instant.
The naval soldiers on the ship fainted without even having time to react.
At the same time, countless tall, scaly black figures jumped out, landed on the beach, and rushed towards the gunner at a terrifying speed.
