Chapter 857 Long distance attack on Flaming Cloud City (2/2)
At this time Marquis Louis said, ”Your Majesty since Pearl personally leads the troops then the east conquest also needs a commander right? Out of all of us, Xu Wei, Li Xiao Yao, Baili Ning and General Wei etc, who can be this Marshal?
Owen took in a deep breath, ”I already made my mind up. Xu Wei is one of the top five generals of Tian Ling City and is also the General of the first division of the Fire Dragon Army. Naturally he would be the Marshal. Men, hand over the battle axe and commander seal. Apart from that, Fire Axe Army General Les is the vanguard, Royal Army as the left wing and Changfeng Army as the right. Gather up eighty thousand Purple Spirit Army members as the backline. Purple Spirit Army General Xiahou Ren will be in charge of all logistics.
In the back a general with his face covered in a mouostache stepped out, ”Yes Your Majesty!”
This person was Xiahou Ren the General of the Purple Spirit Army. The eighty thousand of them could be considered a trump card of the empire but they didn't have much chance to show their skills. Their combat skills were also quite weak so naturally no one paid attention to them.”
Owen gave the order and no one else had anything to say. Fang Ge Que, Q-Sword, Drunken Spear etc were all low ranked and didn't even have a chance to speak.
After the orders were given, a bell rang out in the sky of Tian Ling City. Another conquest quest but it was still a pessimistic one...
”Ding!”
System Notification: Tian Ling City officially declares war on Flaming Cloud City, all of Tian Ling City players can head to Flaming Cloud City. During this period the war achievement points will increase twenty percent and the final rewards will increase by forty percent. If you succeeded in getting Flaming Cloud City, the top three players will obtain God Tier, Deity Tier rewards. If you fail, the rewards will belong to the Flaming Cloud City players. Tian Ling City players would at most get Demon Harvest Tier artifacts!
...
Although the system notification details were really messy but I could roughly understand it. The country rewards were at the end, each city that changed master would give rise to a reward. This was not bad, using war to get stronger. We spent seven days on the country war and as long as not too many people died, one levels won't be left behind by too much.
A day later Pearl led these people out to Flaming Cloud City. A day in the game was six hours in real life, pretty much not leaving any time for us to sleep.
Everyone scattered. As for Q-Sword, Fang Ge Que, Ye Lai and Drunken Spear they didn't leave. I headed over and said, ”This isn't good, what do you all think?”
Fang Ge Que nodded, ”En, now we really have problems both inside and outside. Owen deciding to go south pretty much added more difficulty to our China Region...”
Enchanted Painting held her Water God Halberd and said to me, ”Xiao Yao Zi Zai you are the General of the Royal Army, the Country Protector General and you are the only person here that could have a say. Why didn't you try to stop him?”
I gave out a bitter laugh, Drunken Spear argued for me and smiled, ”Li Xiao Yao wanted to stop him but can't you all see. His Royal Army was too strong now and Emperor Owen is fearful of him. Li Xiao Yao's words might give rise to a negative effect. Owen could even dare to put his own sister in danger. His heart was probably blinded by power.”
I nodded, ”Drunken Spear is right, even if I am the Country Protector General but I am still under him. Apart from me having more power, I don't have anything else. Instead, we players must be prepared to not gamble it all along with NPCs. I don't support us attacking Flaming Cloud City if not no one will be able to defend Tian Ling City. Moreover, Waterfront City and Moon City are the biggest threats to us.”
Fang Ge Que nodded her head in praise, ”Yeah.”
[Prague] Guild Leader Yan Zhao Warrior raised his sword and walked forward and said, ”Then [Prague] is willing to go!”
Enchanted Painting said, ”[Legend] is willing, what about [Zhan Long]?”
I smiled helplessly, ”The Royal Army must follow along so as a General I will definitely bring [Zhan Long] over. Moreover, I suggest [Legend] to stay behind to defend the War God River shores.”
Fang Ge Que nodded, ”Yes, then [Legend], [Appearance Alliance], [House of Prestige], and [Vanguard] will leave to defend Tian Ling City. As for the other guilds like [Zhan Long], [Prague], [Hero Mound], [Thousand Burial], [Wrath of the Heroes], and [Knights Templar] will head all out to attack Flaming Cloud City. Only then will our chances of winning be a little higher. How about that?”
Ye Lai nodded, ”You are the Country War Commander so we will just follow you. We will just follow your orders.”
Q-Sword, ”Then this is decided. Let's make use of the few hours to rest and then get online to prepare!”
”Great!”
...
I made some arrangements and then made a trip to the Royal Army. I ordered Han Yuan, Xiao Lie, and the others to prepare grain to set off. NPCs and players were different and they needed to eat. If not, they would have no strength to fight. Moreover, if one headed into the distance one would have to bring heavy resources such as Dragon Crystal Cannons or Flame Dragon Cannons. Those things were really heavy and there were many boxes which needed to be transported in advance.
I went offline and forced myself to sleep. After a slight rest, I was prepared to welcome a historical long-distance war!
