Chapter 1247: Ice and Snow Melting
For Li Ran, with the addition of the capital, although some benefits will be distributed, for him, he is also a resource that he cannot develop at all. Instead of letting it go without wasting it, it is better to get some benefits after the separation.
In addition, another reason for him to make this decision was that with King Yagles' concessions this time, he offered to let them join, as he did not want to turn against him now, which not only gave him a step forward, but also an opportunity to maintain his relationship with the capital. In the future, he mobilized the noble lords of Khanlok's country, including his followers and friends like Elicimo, to come to help, which would be much more convenient.
So in the next few days, Li Ran also discussed details with Prince Pamela and the military and political chief Toltaylor and others many times. Finally, after reaching a final consensus, he became even more worried and began to prepare for the war next year.
At the same time, just after a bit of hesitation and fierce debate, Hernandos, as the commander of the legion, finally made a decision to both sides, that is, while contacting the Rebecca Empire to prepare for retreat, he still sent an elite army to ambush Queen Alivia and her party.
Although Hernandos's abacus was good, if the ambush against the elf queen Elvia was really successful, he would take advantage of the situation to call on the Eroland Empire to resist, and even enter the capital to control the entire Eroland Empire. Even if it fails, he could leave safely under the protection of the Rebecca Empire.
But as Li Ran said afterwards, this decision is a mistake, regardless of whether it can be successful in the end, because before there is not enough strength, either try to fight to the death, or avoid the wind for a while, want to get the best interests, and don’t want to invest too much, there is no such good thing in this world. Even if this time is successful, once this speculative mentality becomes a habit, one day it will suffer even heavier losses.
As for the final result, the queen only brought tens of thousands of elite soldiers back to the capital under the situation deliberately created by Li Ran, including the Bloody Prince Selia, who was also left in the Fortress of Youyue, but under the attack of 100,000 elite soldiers disguised by the Bald Eagle Legion, the queen of the Ayloran Empire finally used her hidden troops, two epic-level legions that reached thousands of people and several extremely rare advanced magic scrolls.
Ancient Guard! Elf Watcher! One is an evolutionary creature of the tree spirit, and the other is an elite warrior who has passed various death trials. No matter which of them is, it is undoubtedly a powerful army of the Elf clan.
What's more, among these two epic rank corpses with thousands of people, there were more than 20 captains of the mythology. In the end, the Bald Eagle Legion failed in this trip. That night, all of them fled to the border and embarked on a long journey to surrender to the Rebecca Empire.
Not to mention the harsh climate, they had to pass through several empires during this trip, and how much troops would be lost in the middle. For Li Ran, in addition to some disappointment, after learning about all this, he only warned his teammates a few words, and continued his current work and began to allocate all his troops to strive to arrive at Youyue Fortress before spring.
For the outside world, the Tianyun Legion at this time was undoubtedly mysterious and powerful. It could not defeat the two well-known international legions without fighting, but it was not revealed. Even the enemies who besieged them for several months ignored it, which made many people feel a little puzzled.
But with the inquiries from people who are interested, as various information is spread, the Tianyun Legion has ushered in another period of development, including Ren Suxin and the three regiment commanders, who are also very busy at this moment.
For Zhou Xun and others who have been busy for several months, the cold winter period of more than two months in the Third World should have been a rare holiday, but what everyone did not expect was that during this period, they were even more busy than before, and even Wei Zixun and Dubu Youran who have always come and go freely were arranged in various things.
The territory management of the Khanlok Empire, the large number of prisoners brought back, the establishment of stable logistics support channels, the training and rectification of the existing legion, the review arrangements for the surrendered forces, countless armor repairs and allocations, the preparation of sufficient military rations, the safe wintering of ferocious beast mounts, etc.
All of this consumes everyone's efforts and energy, especially when certain details are involved, they need to be extra careful. Almost every moment, they are constantly busy, and even on average, they sleep less than six hours a day during this period of time.
But even so, seeing that the cold winter was about to pass, Zhou Xun and others still felt that there were countless work left to do. Fortunately, with the arrival of thirty professional internal affairs and logistics personnel transferred from Mr. Hu, they gradually became familiar with the existing work and effectively shared the work at hand, which made them feel a little relieved.
At noon that day, in the mansion of the lord in a small sea-side city in the Salanka Empire, looking at the ice and snow on the roofs gradually melting in the distance, as the head of the Crazy Eagle Legion, Wang Yihuan took a deep breath and said, "It seems that our allies should be ready now, and we are about to start."
At this time, there were only a few people here. After hearing his words, Li Daiqiao, who still looked a little fat even after changing his body shape, nodded and said, "It should be true. I heard that this time, even if the noble lords of the Khan Locke Empire were not included, Li Ran's own troops alone had nearly 600,000. After the snow completely melted, it seems that the war will begin."
Although he had already made his own guess, when he heard Li Daiqiao's words, not only Wang Yihuan was a little lost, but even the people next to him sighed.
What Wang Yihuan did not expect was that just agreeing to his own girl's words at the beginning not only allowed him to have a large city on the World Map and obtain an uncalculable upgrade area, but also successfully entered the battle map that failed many times, and he even stood in this position now.
But when they think of the troops secretly sent by their allies not long ago, and the benefits that he could get as an ally after this battle, they soon showed a hint of excitement.
The same situation also occurred in several other places, including Mr. Hu's study room. Because thirty subordinates entered Li Ran's camp, nearly half of them were staying in Youyue Fortress at this moment, so he had a clear understanding of Li Ran's intelligence, so that as soon as there was something strange here, he got the news here.
"Grandpa, the vanguard of Li Ran's side has set off." At this time, Hu Zhijun said excitedly: "It seems that this war has finally started."
Mr. Hu smiled and said, "It's a matter of time sooner or later, but what I didn't expect was that Li Ran would be so anxious. It seems that he also knew that the longer the matter was delayed, the more variables it would be. If you want to resolve all conflicts as soon as possible, now it's mainly based on the reactions of those parties."
Hearing the old man's words, several people in the study nodded with consent, while Hu Huaming smiled and said, "According to the current situation, this matter should be almost the same. What's more, now the Bald Eagle Legion is leaving other empires, the Airoland Empire has issued an announcement that it will not interfere with Li Ran's matter. The other empires cannot make any trouble."
Regarding his concept, everyone present nodded. Only the old man Hu Shihai coughed and said, "It's not that simple. It can be established for nearly a hundred years. The relationship between these empires is naturally full of problems. It is not difficult to say that there will be no changes. However, in addition to the repeated unexpected combat plans and even a little crazy, Li Ran is extremely careful about these trivial matters, so I believe he can handle them well. But even so, if the remaining three empires join forces, especially Valencia, who is in power, is still difficult to deal with if they really have to fight hard."
When the old man said this, the others were slightly stunned. Over the past few days, they had only focused on Li Ran's achievements and ignored that these three empires were all large empires with extraordinary strength. If they really wanted to join forces to fight Li Ran to the death, even if a Forton Mar is added, the outcome would be difficult to decide.
However, just as they were talking about it here, as they said, Li Ran also dispatched the first legions into the Greenohm Empire after uniting with Fortonmar.
However, in addition to this, Li Ran also took a two-pronged approach, combining dozens of noble lords of the Khan Locke Empire, and even more than 100,000 troops from the capital to carry out a comprehensive cleaning on the Roaring Island.
I have to say that on the side of Li Ran and Fordmaar's army, I don't know whether it was because the king was captured and the domestic situation was turbulent and morale was generally low, or whether the legendary duke Fordmaar, who was once famous here, had not received much resistance along the way, including many noble lords above the earl, who also surrendered immediately after a slight resistance. This also made them triumphantly pass and gradually approached the holy land of the Holy Alliance, the capital of Greenohm, and the famous City of Dawn!
However, in the evening of that day, all players in the Third World or the Battle Map suddenly received an important system announcement marked red! It also made Li Ran suddenly announce the disbandment in the first half of the meeting! And immediately ordered to suspend all legions' march and attack!
