Chapter 1021, The City Is Broken, Hastings' New King

The battle on the border of Hastings ended with the complete annihilation of the Evil God Army, and the tragic defeat of Hastings' loss of El Fortress.

El Fortress lost.

There is no danger to defend leading to the capital of Hastings.

Alpha's cavalry can march straight into the city of Hastings.

When the news comes back.

The nobles of Hasting Capital and the heroes stationed by the evil god immediately fell into chaos.

The nobles who originally surrendered to the evil god began to have second thoughts at this time.

It's the King of Hastings.

Because it has already been controlled by the evil god.

At this time, he was urgently discussing the next step with the messenger from the evil god.

"Hasting's elite main force was all lost in the battle at the border."

"The previous actions against the rebels caused heavy losses to the Hastings local nobles."

"Even now we are recruiting nobles to join the war."

"It's also difficult to train enough elite soldiers."

"I think Hasting has lost its value."

"While I am still the king of Hastings, the nobles are still afraid of me."

"Decisively give the order to force the nobles and commoners of Hasting to go to the Kingdom of Wright."

The consequences of this kind of migration due to war are extremely terrible.

Migrating in a hurry, not to mention encountering attacks from Alpha Cavalry along the way.

Even if there is no attack.

The losses incurred during the migration alone were enough to cause heavy casualties to the migrating civilians.

No one would leave their homeland and move to another country except in desperate times.

And obviously.

Even after migration, they survived.

After arriving in the Wright Kingdom, these ordinary people who have left their homes will not have a good ending.

There is a high probability that he will get a spear and become cannon fodder.

Even the nobles lost their fiefs.

It won't end well either.

King Hasting's suggestion is to push the common people and nobles who follow him into the pit of fire.

King Hasting would not have done such a stupid thing before.

But after believing in the evil god, everything changed.

The emissary of the evil god was interested in King Hasting's proposal.

He knows it too.

The defeat of El Fortress caused heavy losses to the God Lord.

These legions lost in the battle can be said to be the few mobile forces in the hands of the gods.

After there is no more mobile army.

The war between the gods and Fang Yuan can only be transferred to the defensive stage.

On the border of the Kingdom of Leyte.

Countless castles and fortresses are under construction in full swing.

The gods are preparing to use the strong castle defense to block Fang Yuan's attack.

Under the castle, consume Fang Yuan's mobile troops.

Wait for the strength of both sides to return to balance before planning a counterattack.

The Kingdom of Wright has become a prominent point of defense.

The Kingdom of Hasting has been abandoned by the God Lord.

Even the temple of the Harvest Goddess has begun to migrate secretly.

Originally, the gods were preparing to clear the country from Hasting.

Kill all the nobles and commoners.

Don't let this country's population and resources become Fang Yuan's war potential.

The killing legion sent by the evil god is ready to set off.

But at this time, I heard King Hasting’s suggestion.

The messenger pondered.

It turns out that the Harvest Goddess also had this plan, but it was rejected by the other gods.

They were afraid that their migration would be too slow and they would be intercepted by Fang Yuan.

But current intelligence.

After Fang Yuan's army captured the El Fortress.

There was no further dispatch of troops, but a long period of rest.

Take advantage of this gap.

They could indeed move the population to the Kingdom of Leyte.

In this way, it will not only supplement the migrant workers needed by the Kingdom of Leyte.

Nobles can also become death warriors stationed in the Castle of Death.

It's always more cost-effective than laboring to kill yourself.

Again.

Even if the migration fails, they can still be killed on the spot.

It's better than massacring one village after another.

The efficiency is much higher.

Again!

She is the divine child of the Harvest Goddess.

Now there are less than 10,000 legions left under the goddess' command.

If a large number of civilians and nobles can be taken away from Hasting.

The future goddess can also select some of them and train an indigenous army.

In this way, the voice among the gods can be greater.

Various reasons made the messenger determined to change the plans set by the gods.

"Your Majesty the King."

"Then do as you wish."

"From now on, mobilize everyone in Hasting Kingdom immediately."

"Whether it's a commoner or a noble."

"Start migrating immediately, aiming for the Kingdom of Wright."

"If you don't obey orders, no matter whether you are a noble or a commoner, you will be killed."

In Hastings.

It is the king and the nobles who jointly govern the country.

If the king issued an order that was ridiculous.

The nobles have the right to refuse implementation.

This is the unspoken rule between the king and the nobles.

So the king issued this unreasonable order.

Denial of execution is inevitable.

After the nobles repeatedly confirmed.

After getting indeed from the king.

soon.

There was turmoil within Hastings.

The nobles petitioned the king to withdraw this order.

He said that he would defend the royal capital and live and die with Hasting.

The messenger of the evil god had already expected this.

They decisively dispatched legions from the Wright Kingdom to the territories of various nobles to suppress them.

Just a few days.

Hundreds of nobles were killed within the Hasting Kingdom.

And this is a retrograde move.

This directly aroused the anger of the nobles.

Since there is no way to survive here.

They surrendered to the third prince.

All of a sudden.

Documents of surrender from nobles from all over Hastings flew to El Fortress like pieces of paper.

Within the fortress.

Guderian also knew about the foolish moves within the Hasting Kingdom.

As the commander of the Alpha Legion's front lines.

I have to admit, this is simply a picked-up victory.

It is almost possible to capture the Kingdom of Hastings without any bloodshed.

It turned out that I was still thinking of using Heidi's lurking spies and the third prince.

Convince the nobles to surrender.

Try not to send troops as much as possible, and win more support from the nobles.

In this way, the war potential of the Hasting Kingdom will not be consumed.

After taking over, you can recruit troops and continue the war.

There is no need to consume the war potential between yourself and Hasting because of resistance from various places.

Although Guderian is not afraid of death.

But it would be better to die less.

For this plan, they have been working secretly for a long time.

This is also the reason why we have not entered the army.

In these days, the results obtained are no small.

At least most of the towns on the plain in front of El Fortress chose to surrender secretly.

The rest are just sitting on the fence and relatively ambiguous.

Guderian was asked not to enter their territory.

Originally, Guderian didn't want to spoil them and planned to send troops to kill chickens and scare monkeys.

Shock these nobles.

But I never expected it.

Don't wait to do it yourself.

The Kingdom of Hastings took the initiative to provide a divine assist.

Saw letters like snowflakes.

The third prince took the initiative to find Guderian and repeatedly confirmed the accuracy of the news.

His eyes were full of incredible colors.

Although he knows the Alpha Kingdom, it can definitely help him take down Hasting.

He is destined to become the king of Hastings.

But I never thought it would be so easy.

Looking at the letter in his hand.

The third prince didn't know whether to be happy or sigh.

This time.

Guderian looked at the third prince and said.

"Judging from the contents of the letter."

"The situation in Hastings is better than we imagined."

"But there is also news that the evil god's messenger is ready to take action."

"They brought in a large number of legions from the Kingdom of Wright."

"Attempting to forcibly relocate the nobles and commoners of Hasting Kingdom."

"We absolutely cannot let them do this."

"I have decided to send troops immediately."

"Secure the Hasting Kingdom as soon as possible."

"Third Prince, you are the future king of Hastings."

"From now on, you assist Heidi and contact the nobles of Hastings."

"Let them make their position clear as soon as possible and send troops to be the vanguard of our army."

As a qualified commander.

Guderian knew.

The nobles' promises cannot be trusted.

Until the other side sends troops, their words cannot be believed.

They are now forced to do so.

If there were other opportunities, I might even encourage the third prince to betray him.

So at this time, let the third prince follow Heidi.

Let Heidi use the puppet potion to control these surrendered nobles.

Only Guderian can rest assured.

soon.

The spies in El Fortress began to enter the Kingdom of Hastings.

They held the potion in one hand and the third prince's letter of appointment in the other.

If you don't accept the medicine, you can't become a noble under the third prince.

Although the nobles knew that drinking the potion would definitely not be a good thing.

But compared to following King Hasting to the Kingdom of Wright.

After weighing the two.

The nobles all chose to drink the potion.

And within half a month.

Guderian was at El Fortress and did not dispatch even a single soldier.

He successfully conquered the nobles on the plain leading to the royal capital of Hastings.

Then in the name of the third prince.

From these nobles, an army numbering three hundred thousand was conscripted.

Except for a few nobles and knights who are elite.

The main force is untrained farmers or hired mercenaries.

The combat effectiveness is naturally not much higher.

But the quantity is enough.

Subsequently.

Guderian personally led the reorganized Border Knights as the main force.

Known to the outside world as a million-strong army.

The waves were pressing towards the capital of King Hastings.

This time.

Whether it's Hasting or the messenger of the evil god.

Everyone knew that Hasting had no hope.

Defeat is decided.

Those nobles who did not want to retreat and were unwilling to retreat.

When the third prince led a million troops to attack the royal capital.

Counterattacks were raised one after another.

He personally led the knights and soldiers and joined the third prince's command.

And every new noble took the initiative to take the puppet potion.

When the army led by the third prince arrived at the capital of Hastings.

Excluding Guderian's thirty thousand border knights.

A peasant army formed by the nobles of the Kingdom of Hastings.

The number actually reached millions! ! !

And their joining directly caused the bankruptcy of the plan of King Hasting and the Messenger of the Evil God to relocate the nobles and commoners of Hasting.

The royal capital of Hastings.

"Your Mightiness."

"The nobles. The nobles are beginning to rebel."

In the capital, there are still some nobles who are loyal to the king.

After the third prince's million-strong army appeared.

They were also trembling with fear.

At this time, the king looked at the messenger of the evil god.

"Sir, we are now~"

The messenger of the evil god was also very depressed.

He didn't expect the situation in Hastings to change so quickly.

Migrating nobles and civilians was just a part of the capital.

Unexpectedly.

They were rebellious by nobles across the country.

"Damn it."

"Or our troops are not enough to suppress the betrayal of the nobles."

The messenger of the evil god cursed angrily.

"Forget it, it's impossible, we can only retreat."

"Send an order, take the confidants of the capital and retreat immediately."

"Wait, the capital can't be left to them."

"Set fire, burn the capital."

Now there are more than 500,000 people living in the capital of Hastings.

If the fire is set, there will be heavy casualties.

At this time, the nobles responsible for executing the order also felt compassion.

The news was quietly spread.

Soon.

A rebellion broke out in the capital.

When the Third Prince's army was about to surround the capital.

The king and the evil god's messenger were almost surrounded and killed by the angry people of the capital.

They could only take some of their confidants with them.

They fled the Hasting Kingdom in a panic.

The Third Prince led a million troops and held an armed parade.

They successfully arrived in the Hasting Kingdom.

Then, under the cheers of the people of the capital, he ascended the throne without bloodshed.

He became the new king of the Hasting Kingdom.

After ascending the throne, the Third Prince issued his first order.

"The nobles have formed a million troops."

"Go to the front line immediately."

"Declare war on the Kingdom of Light."

A new round of battle between the evil god and Fang Yuan began.

And this time!

The evil god completely became the passive defender.

The strategic initiative was all in Fang Yuan's hands.

And this time!

In the Alpha capital.

Fang Yuan looked at the map in front of him.

A dangerous light flashed in his eyes.

"Thinking that building a fortress can slow down my attack speed."

"Naive!"

Fang Yuan looked at Christian beside him.

"Over at the Orc Kingdom, is there any new news from Brennie?"

"Yes."

"The Orc King has been controlled by the puppet potion."

"They have controlled the main nobles of the Orcs."

"The Orc army can be mobilized to join the war at any time."

This is great news for Fang Yuan.

It can be seen from the map.

After Hastings was taken.

The remaining four countries.

In the four kingdoms of Wright, Leighton, Lannis, and Xinhui.

Leighton and Wright are back to back, and are two twin kingdoms.

Now the borders of Wright and Leighton Kingdom are close.

A protruding fortress was built to threaten Alpha and Hastings.

And if you want to take down these two kingdoms.

You need to smash these castles one by one along the way.

Even if Alpha's alchemist is very strong.

But it is not so easy to take down two kingdoms in a short time.

Besides.

The two kingdoms of Lannis and Xinhui have also completed the general mobilization and stationed troops on the border.

There are signs of invasion.

Now he is fighting on three fronts.

The evil god is also desperate and does not fight with him in the wild.

Just fight a static battle and defend the castle.

In this way, he can only nibble bit by bit, and cannot mobilize all the elites.

He can only send some to fight in rotation.

Fight a messy battle on the border and consume soldiers.

Fang Yuan will naturally not allow this to happen.

That's why he asked about the situation in the Orc Kingdom.

Because if he crosses the Red River Valley.

Let the orcs go south, enter the eastern border of the Hasting Kingdom, and bypass the coastline.

They can smoothly enter the rear of the Leyden Kingdom.

If the army of the Orc Kingdom can appear there.

Break through the Leyden Kingdom from the rear.

Then the defense line of the two kingdoms of Leyden and Wright formed by the evil god will be completely meaningless.

His own army can dig into his rear.

Fang Yuan's hand quickly drew a line on the map.

Then he said to Christian.

"Send someone to the north immediately and hand it over to Doug."

"Then give the order to Sam."

"Withdraw from the Red River Valley."

"Make way for the road."

"After Doug has assembled the army."

"Go through the Red River Valley and bypass the coastline."

"Attack the rear of the Kingdom of Leiden."

"Yes!" (End of this chapter)
