When the bad news about Fox Pass was passed to Anbei City and then to Gama City, the atmosphere in Nalan Residence suddenly cooled down.
Everyone looked ugly. Sun Er and her mother huddled in the room and sobbed softly. The maids and guards were even more careful than before, for fear that they might cause some trouble by accident.
Because no one expected that Nalan Ye, who had just returned from a great victory by killing Snake-People Tribe Queen, suffered Triumphant Return Ceremony, Capping Ceremony, and was canonized as family Heir Apparent and empire Commandant, would unexpectedly die in battle after only going north for more than a month.
Just like a firework, it suddenly appeared and bloomed with infinite brilliance, overwhelming the entire Gamma Empire without any light.
Then it was like a meteor, so fast that no one had time to react, and it had already fallen into the depths of the earth...
Inside Nalan Residence Council Hall, the patriarch Nalan Su and all Elders were present. The atmosphere was low and solemn, and no one spoke for a long time.
After a long time, one Elders sighed and said, "No matter what, let's bring Nalan Ye's body back first."
Nalan Su raised his eyelids and turned his head to look at Nalan Tu. Although Nalan Ye had been adopted by him, that was only in name.
Nalan Tu looked haggard and his eyes were a little dull. It wasn't until Nalan Su coughed several times that he slowly came back to his senses and said hoarsely:
"Ye Er once said before he left...Yellow Sand His loyal bones are buried thousands of miles away, so why return them in horse leather?"
"Where you die, where you will be buried - let Ye Er be buried in Fox Pass. I want him to watch and avenge his father with his own eyes!"
By the time he finished speaking, he had burst into tears and punched the armrest with a heavy fist, tears streaming down his face.
The rest of Elders were silent for a while. The white-haired person sent the black-haired person away. This is the saddest thing. How can they comfort them?
"Brother Tu... my condolences."
Nalan Su gave a pale and weak voice of comfort, looked down at the letter in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "Ye Er died in battle, Heir Apparent died in battle, this is my Nalan Family's shame."
"We must avenge this!"
He stood up suddenly, glanced around at all the Elderss in the hall, raised the letter in his hand high, and roared in a low voice with some madness:
"My father issued a death order. We must gather a hundred thousand elite troops within a month and march north to Anbei City to avenge Snake-People!"
"One hundred thousand troops!"
"Empty all our clan's private military guards, and at the same time mobilize all our clan's forces, including our clan's vassal families and forces, as well as all our in-laws, to gather this hundred thousand troops..."
"Then, wash away the shame of our clan!"
Everyone Elders suddenly changed color, an army of 100,000
With the Nalan Family's power, of course he can make it happen, but - this is really going to be a desperate effort
But in the face of Nalan Jie's order, even though Anbei City was still far away, no Elders dared to object. Everyone had different expressions, but they all agreed.
"Chief, I also want to go to Northern Region with the army to avenge Ye Er!"
Nalan Tu stood up and said through gritted teeth. Nalan Su was silent for a moment, stepped forward and patted his shoulder, nodded and said:
"Okay."
The meeting dispersed, and one of the people named Elders hurriedly returned to their respective turfs. In the following days, many of them would probably be too busy to keep their feet off the ground.
Alchemy Elder must prepare Medicinal Pill, Weapon Crafting Elder is responsible for the armor, Finance Elder is responsible for the logistics and baggage, and Guardian Elder is responsible for commanding the troops.
External Affairs Elder, who usually seems useless, has the heaviest responsibility. He is responsible for contacting various in-laws and asking them to send troops with the Nalan Family...
Nalan Family seems to be a family, but in essence it is no different from a country. Once they are all mobilized, the war power will be extremely huge!
While the entire Gama City was feeling a bit depressed due to the bad news about the Nalan Family, the Chuyun City, the capital of the Chuyun Empire, thousands of miles away in the east, was filled with a happy atmosphere inside and outside.
Within the Imperial Palace, Emperor Chuyun Empire was extremely happy after receiving the detailed news, and hurriedly summoned a group of ministers and Sect Master of Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate and Wu Tian Mansion.
If an empire wants to maintain stability within it, it must either be a dominant one or a tripartite alliance.
Chuyun Empire is similar to the Gamma Empire. There are three top brands in China, namely Chuyun Imperial Family, Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate and Wu Tian Mansion.
Among them, Chuyun Imperial Family is the weakest. Because the whole environment of the Chuyun Empire is that the family is weak and the sect is strong.
The three parties had a heated discussion on the death of Nalan Ye. Among them, a minister in charge of intelligence said happily:
"Your Majesty, two Sect Master, according to detailed reports, Nalan Jie was furious after hearing the news of Nalan Ye's death, and the entire Nalan Family was mobilized."
"At this time, within the Gamma Empire, various cities and forces are mobilizing and recruiting troops. At the same time, Gama Royal Family and Mitre Family are also contributing."
Looking up at Emperor Cloudrise Empire, the Minister of Intelligence showed a smile on his face and said, "According to the existing intelligence, Gamma Empire will dispatch an army of 200,000 to 300,000 to the Anbei City defense line."
Cloudrise Empire The emperor nodded when he heard this, looked at the two Sect Masters Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate and Wu Tian Mansion, and said with excitement:
"The two Sect Master and Gamma Empire have a standing army of 500,000. They can recruit 500,000 troops at the next time, which adds up to one million troops."
"At this time, Gamma Empire will go to Anbei City to accumulate 300,000 to 400,000 troops. After excluding the troops left behind in various places, the number of troops they can invest in fighting our country will not exceed 400,000."
"And I, Chuyun Empire, also have one million troops. Excluding the troops left behind in various places, our country can invest 700,000 troops on the Western Front battlefield!"
An army of 700,000 people versus an army of 400,000 people. What a huge military advantage this is.
If this kind of war cannot be won, everyone will die!
Emperor Cloudrise Empire's face became ferocious. If he could win this battle and annex Gamma Empire's land, his majesty would not only increase, but his power would also expand rapidly.
There is no telling when he will be able to get rid of the constraints of the two sects, become the dominant one, and truly become the king of a country - one person is superior, and the rest are all ants!
After annexing Gamma Empire, everyone will benefit. Master Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate and Master Wu Tian Mansion looked at each other, snorted at the same time, and stopped looking at each other.
It is said that peers are enemies, Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate and Wu Tian Mansion are both sects, and the conflict between the two sects is much greater than the conflict with the Chuyun Imperial Family.
"Your Majesty, this battle was fought!"
Lord Wu Tian Mansion was the first to speak, and Lord Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate was not far behind. He chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, call the envoy of the Snake-People Tribe. We will discuss this battle carefully."
The messenger of the Snake-People Tribe is a young woman with a plump figure. The snake's tail is a rare golden color, as if it were carved from gold. It makes people not feel scared when they see it, it is just pleasing to the eye.
As she walked around, her waist and hips twisted, and the gauze covering her body fluttered, which made everyone in the hall laugh.
This Snake-People young woman was not angry either. She covered her mouth with a smile, cast a wink at everyone, and then saluted and said:
"Jin Lu'er has met Your Majesty, has met Master Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate, has met Master Wu Tian Mansion."
