Chapter 179: Phoenix Rebellion (Part 2)

While the Phoenix nobles were making noise, Qin Yin's army in Guderian City rushed into Phoenix with unstoppable momentum. This has never happened in Qin Yin's history.

In addition to the royal territory and the army of Holy Rock City, the Qin Yin royal family also commanded the army of important border towns. In other words, the army of Guderian was directly commanded by the Qin Yin royal family. This army invaded Phoenix, and the empire was in an uproar. Some local nobles even began to question the legitimacy of Holy Rock City.

Everyone knows that today's emperors have been weak and sick since childhood. Before they became young, they have been living in the magic tower and relying on the magic of the royal magician to continue their lives. The emperor's body, let alone martial arts, would faint after studying for a long time. Such an emperor obviously cannot convince the public.

At this time, the local nobles believed that the Holy Rock City had actually been controlled by Prince Sephiros. Prince Sephiros himself did not dare to be the emperor, but wanted to try to make the territory of Grand Duke Phoenix.

The nobles of Phoenix resisted fiercely, because if the Principality of Phoenix was abolished, they would have nothing. Sephiroth would definitely share Phoenix's land with his descendants and confidants.

Although hundreds of years of peace have made Phoenix's military preparations relax, Phoenix is ​​part of Qin Yin after all, and the martial spirit remains. Nobles from all over the country united to temporarily stop the offensive of Guderian City.

Qin Yin's army in Guderian City dispatched a total of four swordsman battalions and a mage regiment. It was divided into two parts, one army heading north, invading two hundred miles, capturing the city of Grant, and the other heading west, capturing the famous Sun Castle, cutting off the connection between Phoenix and Garroran.

Although Phoenix is ​​a northern principality, it relies on food as its foundation for survival, and the land here is fertile. The defect of the entire principality is the lack of metal minerals, and most of the weapons have to be purchased from outside. The army of Guderian City cut off the road to the outside world, and the Phoenix nobles were immediately panicked.

It is winter now, and the army is in difficulty in moving, and the situation can be maintained for the time being, but by spring, the imperial army will definitely launch a large-scale offensive. The road to the outside world is cut off and the supply of weapons is not enough. The imperial army does not have to be too anxious and can slowly erode the land inch by inch.

What frightened the Phoenix nobles the most was that they heard that Holy Rock City had created war puppets and would be sent to the north next spring to attack the city of the Principality.

After hearing about this, Piak did not dare to stay in Shenlin Town. He immediately took his property and fled to the northeast according to the map given by Salin. He was careful and went directly to see Salin and threw away his town. Salin might have been angry and took his life. On the way to escape, he went to see two friends, namely Suha and Peter.

These two viscounts have received the exact news that the war puppets in Holy Rock City have been transported to Guderian City without waiting for the beginning of spring. If they don’t leave, their more than a thousand troops will be directly smoothed out by Qin Yin’s army.

Salin listened to Piak's narrative and analyzed the above things, and sighed in his heart. These nobles were too brave. Before the war puppets in Holy Rock City arrived, they abandoned their territory and fled. Should such people be thrown out by themselves? It is useless to stay by their side.

Salin did not hide his disappointed expression. The two viscounts saw it and their hearts were beating and they felt extremely depressed.

"Master Master." Su Ha shouted with courage.

"What?"

"It's not that we don't want to resist, but there are no magicians in our territory. Once the war puppet arrives, it's impossible to resist!"

"Without a mage, you can't resist the war puppet?" Salin's tone was unkind.

Zola said behind Sara: "Sir, that's true. Unless there is a great magician help, the war puppets can easily tear open the defense of the fortress."

Salin thought about it and felt that this was a little reasonable. Since Emperor Chanak passed away, Safiros has been busy creating war puppets. It has been two years since he was full of power, but it took two years to create war puppets. This thing must be powerful. But isn’t Holy Rock City planning to use war puppets to deal with the Holy See? Why was Phoenix sent?

What happened to Holy Rock City? The imperial army attacked the territory of local nobles. This was an act of shaking the foundation of the empire. Sephiros wouldn't be so stupid, right?

Seeing that Salin was still silent, Suha was a little panicked. He wiped his sweat and said humbly: "Master, we are willing to be loyal to Prince Rex, and we specially brought the elite soldiers of the family and the land contract."

"Oh? That's good." Salin smiled. The two guys paid a lot of money and brought a land contract. If Rex had the strength to compete for Phoenix in the future, he would have a legal advantage. However, the Kushui County and the State of Holy Rock City cannot fight with the situation in the Holy Rock City. After all, the situation in Galoran is getting worse and worse.

However, the army of Guderian City cut off the road from Phoenix to the outside world, so there was no hope of entering Skochenya on land. If you walk from the sea, the northern sea will be in a state of ice for nearly half a year, and it will be a warship. The journey will not exceed eight months, and the journey will be very dangerous. In this way, my city can only go to Lianyun City through the port.

This is not a good thing for a newly established city. But if you fight against Holy Rock City, you don’t have this power. Salin clearly remembers how powerful the Holy Rock City army is. His only reliance is the Three Dead Kings, but the power of the Three Kings was severely suppressed. Holy Rock City only needs to send a ninth-level mage to make the three kings run away in shame.

Salin was even more unsure whether there was a powerful mage like Joy in Saint Rock City. Thinking of this, Salin found that the matter of his promise to return to Saint Rock City to see Joy has not been implemented yet.

Salin doesn't want to blame the debt. If Joey is unhappy, this powerful man who surpasses the ninth level will not be able to withstand even Srieg Island.

Seeing that Salin stopped talking again, the two viscounts rubbed their hands anxiously. Salin raised his eyelids and glanced at the two of them. The two middle-aged nobles were a little fat, but they were not as fat as Baron Piac, and the calluses on their hands did not fade. They should have continued to practice martial arts.

Maybe these two guys are not so cowardly, but they have to escape without the help of a mage.

"If..." Salin raised his voice, Suha and Peter immediately took a stern look. Salin said, "If you are loyal to the prince, what do you want to get?"

"Sir, we want to keep our son here and ask him to protect their safety. Regardless of whether the prince can help us recover the territory, the swordsmen of our two families will always be loyal to the prince."

After hearing the request from both of them, Salin felt soft. If it weren't for anything else, he would definitely not take it seriously, but... this was the prayer of the two fathers. If his father was still alive, he would definitely protect himself at all costs.

Moreover, the two guys were very conscious and did not ask Salin to send troops. They just said that they would wait for the future. If Rex had the ambition to dominate the world in the future, they could recover their territory. If there was no such day, the two guys only hoped that their son would survive well.

"Okay, I can make the decision on this matter. But your soldiers will be handed over to me. Let your two sons come to me tomorrow, and I will take a look and find a teacher for them. As long as they don't leave the city, I will guarantee their safety."

"Master, thank you very much." Suha and Peter saluted at the same time. They are now down-and-out nobles, and all they have to do is humility in front of a level 5 magician. If Salin wants to seize their military power, they have to hand over it over. Before coming, the two of them thought that if Salin's strength is not enough, they will act as robbers and occupy this new city.

However, Daniel, who welcomed them, gave the two nobles too much shock, the necromancer and the undead army. It was obviously unwise to confront the mage with such power. The two believed Piak's words and chose to obey.

"As for your money, just keep it. If you want to live in the city, you still need to buy land." Seeing that the two nobles were nervous, Salin finally gave them a smile: "Don't worry, you came early, I will give you a cheap price."

"Zola, you will be responsible for the two viscounts' soldiers from now on. Arrange their place to live, and you will go and receive the soldiers tomorrow."

"Yes, sir."

"Piac, stay." Salin pointed a little fat man, and Piac stayed in the barracks in a scrupulous manner. After Zola took away the two viscounts, Salin said: "Did you take their money?"

Pijac was silenced and his face turned pale.

"Did you still say that as long as you speak, I can take them in?"

Piac knelt on the ground with a thud. If Phoenix was not in chaos, he could naturally come here openly and wait for Salin to fulfill his promise. But now Phoenix is ​​in chaos, his use will be gone. He will definitely not be able to defend Deep Forest Town, and Salin can't get it now, so he can only wait for the soldiers of Guderian City to receive it.

"Sir, please spare me." Piac immediately burst into tears, definitely not pretending.

"Save your life? Since you asked them to come and join us, why do you still send scouts? Are you planning to attack?"

"Sir, it's nothing to do with me. I only have ten soldiers, each of them has a few hundred." Piac was lying on the ground, crawled forward two steps, hugged Salin's thighs, and was almost kissing Salin's feet.

Salin kicked him away and said, "There is no one here. If Zola is here, if you try to approach me, he will cut off your hands and feet and hand you to the Necromancer."

Seeing that Piac was speechless, Salin said, "You eat them a lot, and give them all to me. This time I will spare you."

"Thank you, sir." Piac finally took a breath.

"What are you thanking, I haven't finished talking yet." Salin looked at Piac coldly, and Piac's head lowered again.

"I will turn back to you one hundred soldiers. When the prince returns, he will enthrone your new title. You will take these hundred soldiers back to Shenlin Town, which is already the territory of the county. If the people of Holy Rock City want, tell them all."
