Monarch of Evernight: Send troops on the 11th

bsp;In the Neutral Land, mercenaries are known for their bravery and bloodthirsty. This is especially true for all of these ordinary mercenaries who have worked their way up to generals. However, although they are more brave and fierce than others, when it comes to fleet battles, most of them are amateurs.

Even with Qianye's experience, he felt that it would take at least two frigates to attack from the front and back in order to kill the entire convoy fleet safely and without damage. Otherwise, according to what these generals said, wouldn't they be prepared to tear the warship apart with their own hands? Even if a single soldier can indeed blow up a small boat, how to prevent them from escaping?

Nan Ruohuai stood in the corner, listening with a smile. It seemed that he didn't think there was anything wrong with luring the wolf into the house.

At this time, a general opened the door and came in, saying: "Sir, all the troops have been assembled and are waiting for orders."

Qianye pondered for a moment, reached out and clicked on a few places on the map, and said, "Let half of the troops board the ship to take down these three towns. The rest will follow me and go directly to Yuanjing City!"

A general said: "Sir, don't you leave someone to guard here?"

Qianye glanced at Nan Ruohuai and said, "His Royal Highness is here, right? Let Your Highness go down and say hello to them. Anyone who dares to rebel is committing treason!"

Nan Ruohuai's originally calm face suddenly flashed with a faint hint of paleness, and this action clearly meant that he wanted to fight for the king. He usually only dared to think about this idea in his mind. Even if Qianye came to the door and had to give in due to coercion and inducement, he never really thought about starting a rebellion.

However, Qianye's movements were much faster than he expected. As soon as he arrived at Yonglu, he didn't even sit on the stool to warm up. He immediately tore off all the fig leaves and directly sent troops to encircle the territory. The problem is that this matter is still under the banner of Nan Ruohuai, leaving him with no way out.

Nan Ruohuai thought about it for a moment, then her heart changed. She left the room, pulled the mayor and captain into a side room, talked for a while and then came back. She placed a document in front of Qianye and said, "This is already here. No more problems."

Qianye picked up the document and took a look. It turned out to be something like a certificate of nomination, to the effect that he wholeheartedly supported Nan Ruohuai to succeed King Zheng. The signature was signed by the mayor and the captain of the town guard. Once this document is signed, the life and property of the mayor and the captain of the guard are basically handed over to Nan Ruohuai. If he fails in the fight for the position, then this document will be a serious crime for everyone to be executed.

Qianye smiled, returned the document to Nan Ruohuai, and said, "Well done. Why did they agree so quickly?"

Nan Ruohuai glanced at Song Lun next to him and said shyly: "I borrowed Mr. Song's ideas."

Qianye suddenly realized that Nan Ruohuai had used Song Lun's tactics against him intact, and used them on the mayor and the captain of the town guard. Although these two are extremely small people, they can also be regarded as local snakes, and they are very useful in stabilizing the place. Although there is nothing special about Jishui Town, its geographical location is right next to the Wang Family Manor, so there is a lot of room for peace and stability to be defeated.

Nan Ruohuai's cultivation is not weak, he learns quickly, and he is aware of current affairs. He is also a talented person.

At this moment, Qianye has finished allocating tasks, and the logistics troops who arrived with the transport ship began to build a temporary camp outside the town for the troops to rest.

After the initial panic, the residents of the small town discovered that although the new warriors looked extremely vicious and murderous, they would not disturb the people as long as they did not provoke them. Immediately, rumors began to spread in the town that His Highness the Prince's uncle was back, and these were the soldiers of that lord.

As for when the uncle became an uncle, it is impossible to test. Anyway, as long as it does not disturb the people, the residents of the town will feel at ease, regardless of gossip such as whether the prince's uncle is actually the king's brother.

The residents of the small town can only maintain subsistence and clothing, and even if they requisition supplies, they can't squeeze out much money. During this trip, Qianye also learned from Song Zining's style, making great efforts in logistics and implementing the ultimate elite troop policy. Most of the transport ships were loaded with supplies, and there was no need to collect food on the spot. In this way, despite the early preparations, The time and cost are slightly more, but it saves the army from the biggest trouble of occupying the place.

In the early morning of the next day, Qianye's troops came out in full force, and battleships and transport ships roared past and flew into the distance.

The occupation process of this floating island called Xudong Island was very smooth, and all the people sent did not suffer any setbacks. The island is mostly dotted with small towns and villages, and the level of the guards is similar to that of Jishui Town. Most of the soldiers on the roster do not exist at all. Even if there are some who are not afraid of death, they are no match for these elite mercenaries under Qianye. They will turn into corpses in the blink of an eye.

After killing the assassin, Nan Ruohuai's people came to appease and explain the situation, and people recognized the reality and silently surrendered.

The only trouble is Yuanjing City. There is a formed guard fleet and an organized army there, and the city lord is also sent from the capital of the kingdom.

When the battle cruiser Qianye was riding arrived at the sky above Yuanjing City and saw the burning wreckage of the aerostat outside the city, he couldn't help but frown.

A frigate approached. The captain couldn't wait to connect and jumped directly onto Qianye's battle cruiser. As soon as he saw Qianye, he knelt down on one knee and said: "My subordinates are not fighting well, please punish me!"

Qianye looked at the scars on the outer body of the frigate, then looked at the burning wreckage on the ground, and said, "Weren't they all destroyed? Is there anything else?"

The captain said: "With three frigates in hand, it is not unusual to destroy these small broken ships. It's just that the defenders in the city still resisted stubbornly and refused to surrender no matter what. My subordinates tried to attack the city, but were beaten back. ."

Qianye's eyebrows relaxed slightly and he said: "A few frigates want to attack the city? You are too whimsical!"

Frigates are different from gunboats that specialize in ground attack. They are fast and have strong firepower, but their protection is not very good. There was no cover, and there were no strong enough men to guard the city, so they rashly attacked the city. There was a large city with a regular defense system on the opposite side, so it was normal for the defenders to fight back.

Qianye walked to the bow of the war patrol, looked down at Yuanjing City, and asked, "Have you ever fought against the city lord? How is his cultivation?"

The captain looked ashamed and whispered: "Before I saw the city lord, I got a hard blow from the turret in the city and I quit."

Qianye nodded and said, "You didn't force yourself, so it's okay."

This captain originally came from the military and really understands fleet warfare. Looking down on the force of the floating island, it is a bit reckless to rush to attack the city, but if you are frustrated, you will wake up and do not want to save face and increase the loss. If it were the mercenary generals under Qianye, they might have crashed a ship into a turret in a fit of rage.

Qianye glanced at it and saw that Yuanjing City had four main turrets, located at the four corners of the inner city. They could support each other, cover the surrounding area, and be protected by the outer city. This layout was also made by an expert.

After seeing it, Qianye knew it well and asked: "Which turret hit you?"

The captain pointed to the turret in the corner and said, "That's the one."

Qianye nodded, turned around and said to the captain of the battle patrol: "Go and blow up that turret."

"No problem, two shots at most." The captain responded and quickly returned to the command bridge. In the blink of an eye, the battle patrol started again, circling outside the city, and then swooped down into the far city. Then the huge ship shook violently, and a huge crossbow arrow was shot out, hitting the turret!

Amidst the earth-shattering roar, the turret collapsed completely, and a huge fireball rolled into the sky.

This shot was extremely accurate. It seemed that the two shots the captain mentioned still left some room for himself. There was a frigate in front of it, and the battle cruiser captain also corrected his attitude and became cautious. He had fought on floating land. If the ship capsized in the ditch in Xudong, if word spread, it would probably make a lot of former colleagues laugh to death.

The battle cruiser immediately pulled up, whizzing past Yuanjing City with a lightness and elegance that was not inferior to that of a light battleship. The roar of the engine and the heat wave from the exhaust caused a howl of ghosts and wolves below. There was also a counterattack in the city, and sporadic crossbow bolts and force ejections hit the belly of the battle cruiser and were all deflected away. With the heavy armor of the battle cruiser, such an attack is just scratching the itch.

The battle patrol passed by Far City, turned around, and began to accelerate around the city, obviously preparing to attack the second main turret.

At this time, the officer in the main turret screamed until his voice became hoarse. He led the soldiers to push the ballista desperately, trying to keep up with the speed of the battle patrol. However, huge ballistae are generally driven by machinery. The flexibility and speed of manual propulsion are slightly faster, but it is still difficult to keep up with the direction of the battle cruiser, let alone aim.

As soon as the war patrol turned around, a figure flew out of the city and shouted angrily: "Stop! Do you attack Yuanjing City to make me an enemy of Zheng Guo?"

This person has a cultivation level of about thirteen or four, and he seems to be the city lord of Yuanjing City.

Qianye raised his hand, and the war patrol slowed down and hovered outside the distant city. The location where it stopped was only a few dozen meters away from Yuanjing City, almost right on top of the city. The turrets in this direction had just been blown away, and except for the main turret, there was no fire company in the city that could pose any threat to it.

Qianye flew out of the battle patrol, stood in front of that man, and said calmly: "Who are you? Do you dare to block my fleet? Do you want to rebel?"

The man stared at Qianye, surprised and confused after hearing this. He couldn't see through Qianye's strength at all, and with the battle cruiser, he knew that Qianye's origins must be complicated without even thinking about it. Apart from anything else, the whole country of Zheng did not have a single warship that could rival the battle cruiser.

He gave a salute, his tone became respectful, and said: "This is the State of Zheng. I am the city lord appointed by King Zheng. How can I rebel? Who are you? Forgive me for my ignorance. In the State of Zheng and the surrounding countries, everyone There is no legend about you."

Qianye said calmly: "It doesn't matter who I am, you will understand it when you see him."

Qianye turned around, waved to the war patrol, and said, "Come here."

"Me?" Nan Ruohuai stood by the porthole and pointed at her nose. Qianye is standing out of thin air, and he is currently one step away from being a warrior, so he cannot stand upright in the air.

Qianye screamed again as if nothing had happened. Nan Ruohuai had no choice but to bite the bullet and jump out of the hatch. With his skill, falling to the ground from such a height would be a bit ugly, but he would not die anyway. When it fell to the same level as Qianye, Nan Ruohuai suddenly felt like he was on the ground and stood in the air.

He was shocked. When he lowered his head, he saw that there was nothing at his feet. Nan Ruohuai understood that this was the invisible place that Qianye used the force to hold him up.

The Lord of Yuanjing City did not know the mystery, and glanced at Nan Ruohuai in surprise. Suddenly, he felt that his features were familiar, and he said in silence: "You, you..."

"According to the order, I am the thirty-first prince. It is normal that you don't know me. But I remember that you were not the city lord before. It was my fifth brother who put you here, right?"

Yuanjing City Lord said: "Yes, Your Highness. Are you also familiar with our fifth prince?"

However, the city lord's eyes and expression showed that he did not have the character of Prince Thirty-one in his heart at all, and he had probably never even heard of the other party's full name.
