The end of the military era

Even the navy of the Golden Lion Empire, in the hands of that human naval fleet, suffered several consecutive losses. "

"The human naval fleet controlled by the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empire is indeed a problem.

But now the Royal Navy of our Black Bear Empire is no longer a persimmon.

Now 50 Idol-class battleships with full main guns and 50 Sea King-class battlecruisers have all been in service, even facing the human naval fleet of the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empires, they still have the power to fight. "

At the end of June in Tianyuan 1541, the second dispatch of the barbarian army also arrived in the territory of the Baji Empire.

The second dispatched army of the Barbarian Empire consisted of 12 infantry divisions and 6 cavalry divisions, with a total strength of 42.

At this time, there were only 9 cities left under the control of the Chengguan family in Jingzhou, and only 7 cities left by the Xia family in Guling City, and the Jiang family in Chong'an City was completely wiped out by the Zhou family army.

The Guan family's army temporarily blocked the attack of the Zhou family's army because they were supported by the barbarian army.

However, the Xia family in Guling City is almost in a helpless situation. If there is no accident, the Xia family in Guling City will soon be eaten up by Zhou's army just like the Jiang family in Chong'an City. .

In the end, the head of the Xia family in Guling City chose to surrender to the Zhou family's army in order to continue the family, and handed over the remaining 7 cities and more than 20 Xia family troops to the Zhou family.

Immediately, Zhou Rui ordered that the area controlled by the Xia family in the former Guling City be designated as Jidong Town, and the area controlled by the Jiang family in Chong'an City be designated as Jixi Town.

Although the Guan family in Jingzhou City has not been completely beaten to the ground by Zhou's army, Zhou Rui also decided to divide the area controlled by the Guan family in Jingzhou City into Jibei Town.

With the addition of Jidong Town, Jixi Town, and Jibei Town, the number of feudal towns under Zhou Rui's command has increased to eleven, and the strength of the Zhou family will expand a lot.

Regarding the annexation of the Baji Empire by the Zhou family of the Han and Tang empires, the six orc nations and several human nations strongly condemned the Zhou family.

It's just that most of the countries just condemned it verbally. For the time being, the only country that can send troops to intervene is the Barbarian Empire, and even the Black Bear Empire is hiding behind the Barbarian Empire.

On July 1541, 7, the Zhou family army gathered a full 7 infantry divisions and launched a full-scale attack on the Guan family army and the sent troops of the Barbarian Empire.

At this time, the large-caliber artillery promised by the Black Bear Empire to the barbarian army had not yet left the territory of the Black Bear Empire.

The artillery is at a disadvantage, which is not the worst for the barbarian army. What makes the barbarian army feel speechless is that the Guan family, who fought side by side, secretly joined the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empire and sold the barbarian army up.

As a result, the barbarian army completely collapsed, and even Yuzhang, the servant of the army of the barbarian empire, and Gurney, the major general of the army of the black bear empire, became prisoners of Zhou's army.

It turned out that Guan Tianqing, the head of the Jingzhou Chengguan family, found that the fighting power of the barbarian army could not compete with the Zhou family army of the Han and Tang Empires, so he decided to secretly surrender to the Zhou family, so as to at least ensure that the Guan family would not be uprooted.

In a large hall in the palace of Baiyun City, the capital of the Tuman Empire, Emperor Duguliang smiled wryly at the Lieutenant General of the Black Bear Empire, Guyt, "General Guyt, I didn't expect the Guan family of the Baji Empire to be so unreliable. But it has brought misery to our barbarian empire."

Guitt's face was also very ugly at this time. After all, the Guan family in Jingzhou City contacted the Black Bear Empire. This time, the Guan family in Jingzhou City was betraying the Black Bear Empire.

"This matter will not be left as it is. We want to take back the Baji Empire at all costs!" Guit said in a deep voice.

Emperor Duguliang sighed and said: "General Guit, the combined losses of the two dispatched troops of our barbarian army this time exceeded three-quarters.

I don't think so"

Before Emperor Duguliang could finish his words, he was interrupted by Guitt, "Your Majesty, you don't need to worry about military matters. I will help your Majesty to deal with them."

When the emperor Duguliang heard this, he couldn't help cursing inwardly, Tema's!This is really using me, the emperor, as a puppet!

However, there was no angry expression on the face of the emperor Duguliang, "General Guitt let go, I support General Guitt unconditionally."

The words of Emperor Duguliang made Guyit look a little better, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, our Black Bear Empire will never just sit and watch the Baji Empire divided into three new ones by the Zhou family of the Han and Tang Empire. of Fanzhen.

Maybe soon our Royal Army of the Black Bear Empire will also send troops to the Baji Empire. "

Emperor Duguliang nodded, "If the Royal Army of the Black Bear Empire can participate in the battle, then there is still great hope to retake the Baji Empire."

After completely annexing the Baji Empire, many generals of the Zhou family believed that they should take the opportunity to directly attack the Barbarian Empire. Bite off a piece of flesh from his body. vod

Since he had just obtained Jidong Town, Jixi Town and Jibei Town, Zhou Rui was not willing to continue to fight against the Barbarian Empire, not to mention the support of the Black Bear Empire behind the Barbarian Empire.

However, the Barbarian Empire was not prepared to let go of the Zhou family's occupation of the Baji Empire, and continued to mobilize troops to the border area near Jibei Town.

Since they wanted to continue the fight, Zhou Rui had no choice but to stay with him to the end, so he also began to gather heavy troops in the territory of Jibei Town. A larger-scale war could be said to be on the verge of breaking out.

But at this moment, several different time and space nodes in the Barbarian Empire suddenly erupted with an unprecedented scale of beast hordes.

Originally, the Barbarian Empire had stationed heavy troops in different time and space nodes in the territory, but this time there were too many beasts, and even many lord-level beasts and king-level beasts appeared.

In the end, several space-time nodes where the beast tide broke out in the barbarian empire fell, and the disaster of the beast tide spread to many areas of the barbarian empire.

At this time, the Barbarian Empire was not in the mood to talk about counterattacking the Baji Empire, and the troops assembled in the border areas went to areas where the beast tide was more serious.

The Black Bear Empire saw the beast horde broke out in the territory of the Barbarian Empire and was temporarily unable to attack the Baji Empire, so it took the initiative to find the Zhou family, hoping to mediate the conflict between the Barbarian Empire and the Zhou family.

In fact, the Black Bear Empire is mediating on the surface, but in fact it is secretly threatening the Zhou family not to take the opportunity to invade the Barbarian Empire.

Zhou Rui, who was originally unwilling to continue fighting with the Barbarian Empire, also agreed to the mediation of the Barbarian Empire, and unconditionally released tens of thousands of soldiers, including Yu Wenzhang, the Minister of War of the Barbarian Empire, and Major General Gurney of the Black Bear Empire. captive.

After the war with the Barbarian Empire came to an end for the time being, Zhou Rui ordered the establishment of the Jidong Army, Jixi Army, and Jibei Army. The armies of these three feudal towns had the same organization as the armies of other Zhou family feudal towns. They all consisted of 15 infantry divisions and several A garrison regiment.

After adding three new feudal towns to the Han and Tang Empire, other forces in the Han and Tang Empire couldn't help being more jealous of the Zhou family. The Southwest Alliance and the Northwest Alliance, which bordered several feudal towns of the Zhou family, even started secret contacts in secret. Prepare to form a broader alliance against the Zhou family.

Just when the situation of the Zhou family was in good shape, a big explosion occurred in the Jiedu Mansion of the Eleventh Town in Ganyang City. was seriously injured.

Zhou Xiaozheng, who was sitting in a wheelchair, looked at Zhou Rui who was still unconscious on the bed, turned his head to Zhou Xiaorong and asked, "What did the doctor say?"

Zhou Xiaorong said sadly, "The doctor said that the commander-in-chief is not in danger, but...but..."

Zhou Xiaozheng asked in a deep voice, "But what?"

"However, the commander's head was severely injured. Whether he can wake up, the doctor has no way to determine."

Zhou Xiaozheng said with a cold gleam in his eyes, "Who did this thing if they didn't find out?"

Zhou Xiaorong sighed and said, "It was only found that the murderer dug a nearly 3-kilometer-long tunnel, and above the end point happened to be the study where the commander often works.

Then the murderer placed a large amount of explosives at the end of the tunnel. If the commander-in-chief hadn't just left the study at that time, the commander-in-chief's life might have died at the moment of the explosion. "

Zhou Xiaozheng said angrily, "Someone actually dug such a long tunnel under the Jiedu Mansion, what are Hu Yi and Hu Er doing?"

Zhou Xiaorong smiled wryly and said, "Brother, the news of the commander in chief's serious injury has already appeared in the newspapers, and now only you can stand up again to stabilize the morale of the army and the people."

Zhou Xiaozheng snorted coldly, "The 11 feudal towns of the Zhou family were conquered by my son and will be passed on to my grandson in the future. I want to see who dares to jump out at this time."

At this time, Wen Yu, Liu Yiqiu, and Chu Yingying, whose eyes were red from crying, walked in. Seeing her husband, Wen Yu hurriedly asked, "How is your son? What did the doctor say?"

Zhou Xiaozheng said slowly, "The doctor said that my son's life is not in danger, but he doesn't know when he will wake up."

When Wen Yu heard this, tears couldn't stop streaming down again, "Son, you must wake up, if you can't wake up, how can mother survive..."
