King
Chapter 775 Ghost Soldier
"Let's go!"
With Hudson's order, the fleet slowly left the port. Looking around, thousands of sails were flying in competition without disorder.
The Koslo family attaches great importance to sea power, but the mainstream of this era is still the continental strategy, and most of the family resources still flow to the army.
This large fleet in front of us concentrates 80% of the ocean-going ships of the Alpha Empire. Even the fleet that fled after the fall of the Hessen Kingdom was "invited" to join the team.
On the sea journey, the soldiers were very calm.
In order to successfully complete this expedition, the expeditionary corps conducted a sea training between the Snow Moon Principality and the Mountain Territory.
This was the first time that the continental race launched an attack on the Kingdom of God. Hudson, the human marshal who led the team, attracted attention from all parties at the beginning of the expedition.
When the outside world focused its attention on the fleet, a ghost fleet quietly sailed away from the foggy sea and served as the vanguard of the expeditionary corps in front.
The unknown is the most terrible enemy.
Things like exploring the way are most suitable for immortal ghosts. Let these undead creatures fight against the evil demons to see who is more evil.
…
The Kingdom of Destiny.
“The strategic materials have been stockpiled almost completely, and it is time to launch a full-scale attack.
Respected Lord Seyowu, you have been in the Aslant continent the longest and have the deepest understanding of the human race.
What do you think of the next battle?”
On the throne, the spherical monster asked.
"Your Majesty, the Aslant Continent now respects the human race, and the enemy we are facing is a powerful human empire.
Everyone has experienced the previous battles.
The individual combat power of the human race is not as good as that of our Saint Clan, but they are extremely good at coordinated combat. After forming an army, their combat power immediately increases greatly.
Now those who are fighting with us are just some ordinary human generals.
There is also a special existence in the Alpha Empire. This person is not only a god of war, but also the strongest person on the continent.
After breaking Kaifeng, I fought with this person once and suffered a lot.
If the time is delayed for a long time, and this person is replaced as the commander, the Saint Clan will have to pay a big price to win.
The Saint Realm is not peaceful, and we can't lose too much military power here!"
Seyouwu replied with a little embarrassment.
The last fight was completely his black history.
All the subordinates who were brought over to cause trouble were left on the battlefield, and he also lost half of his body.
Fortunately, the situation of the Saint Clan is special. They don't have much body. After adulthood, they will choose to live in other life bodies. If the body is disabled, they can just change another one.
These embarrassing things must not be described in detail, otherwise he would become a laughing stock.
As one of the strongest people in the Saint Clan, Seyouwu also has to save face in front of the younger generation.
"Great Honored One, this is just a material plane, how could there be..."
Halfway through the words, the seven-clawed monster has begun to fill in the blanks: the long-term seal has caused Seyouwu's strength to be greatly reduced, and Hudson has taken advantage of it.
"This world has given birth to gods, and it is not an ordinary material plane as you imagine. Although the gods have fallen now, the level of the world has not been reduced.
The limit of power that can be accommodated is not lower than that of the Saint Realm, and it may even be higher.
Our previous understanding of the material plane is not applicable here. There are many terrifying existences in the Aslant Continent alone.
The strongest among them are enough to rival the top strong men of the Saint Clan.
It is said that there is a Dragon Island overseas, where tens of thousands of dragons live. No one knows how many antiques there are.
From the information collected, the gods of this world have not really fallen, and their reincarnations have begun to be active."
Seyouwu shook his head and said.
The "prison" was not made in vain. The long years of being sealed had wiped out Seyouwu's arrogance.
The hot-tempered Saint Clan Great Venerable has now become cautious.
"The Great Venerable is right. The level of this world is indeed very high, but they have just experienced a reincarnation and are at their weakest stage.
Pass the order down..."
Before the order could be issued, it was interrupted by the sound of fighting outside.
"Your Majesty, the enemy... the enemy... attacked the camp at night!"
The news brought by the guards made the Saint King very angry. He immediately waved his sleeves and took the Saint Clan high-level officials out to check.
"Where did the ghost come from?"
Before he could solve the doubts in his heart, he heard a series of self-explosions.
The Saint Clan soldiers who participated in the siege were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses for a while.
"Catch them alive!"
With a head full of confusion, the Saint Clan King hurriedly ordered.
Generally speaking, this kind of collective suicide attack will only happen when one side is forced to a dead end.
The Saints’ army came from afar, and the only enemies they had provoked so far were humans and orcs.
This was the first time they had encountered a dark race like ghosts.
They came to fight them for no reason, which was full of conspiracy.
These self-destructing ghosts in front of him were obviously dead soldiers.
What puzzled him was that precious chess pieces like dead soldiers were always used at critical moments. Who would be willing to use them as cannon fodder!
Even if it could cause trouble to the Saints’ army, it would not be worth the loss.
The cost of training dead soldiers was much higher than that of ordinary troops.
After all, it was still a step too late. When the Saints’ strong men took action, the suicide attack had already ended.
Looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground and listening to the wailing of the soldiers, the face of the Saint King turned ashen.
For the Saints, they could bear the loss just now, but this kind of loss where they didn't even know who the enemy was was unbearable.
"Who is on duty today, and why did you let the enemy sneak in?"
The Saint King asked angrily, which frightened the Saint generals to tremble.
They knew their own king's methods very well. If something like this happened, someone would definitely be unlucky.
"Your Majesty, Barel is in charge of the night duty tonight.
In the battle just now, he was unfortunately killed!
In addition to Barel, many generals on duty also died in battle."
A Saint general replied nervously.
This kind of responsibility can only be borne by the dead Saints.
Even if Barel didn't die in battle just now, he must be "killed in battle" now.
In the Saints, blood washes away the shame of failure!
"Hmph!"
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and collect the corpses and treat the wounded!"
As soon as the Saint King gave the order, an explosion sounded again in the rear camp.
Obviously, the enemy's suicide attack has not ended yet.
They just sneak attacked the central army camp and turned around to make trouble in the rear camp.
The sudden change made the originally angry Saint King calm down all of a sudden.
The enemy must not have spent so much money just for a sneak attack.
"Pass the order down, the whole army should be on high alert and beware of the enemy's sneak attack again!"
While giving the order, the Saint King had already secretly calculated.
The Saint Clan has only two enemies on the continent.
The remaining orcs have been harmed by the Alpha Empire in the past few decades.
The remaining fish can only survive in the cracks. They don't have enough strength to plan such a big operation.
It is very difficult for the human race to manipulate ghosts to fight for their lives, but now only the Alpha Empire has the motivation to attack them.
After reaching the conclusion, the Saint King showed a mocking smile.
What the first general of the continent is, he is clearly a straw bag!
Using the ghost soldiers as cannon fodder, even if it can bring them heavy losses, is not worth the loss.
Even if it must be used, it must be sent out at the critical moment of the war!
Soon the smile on his face disappeared.
After the rear camp was attacked, the camp on the left wing was attacked by ghosts again.
As if endless, the ghosts that appeared and disappeared constantly destroyed the camp.
"Your Majesty, the enemy's target is likely to be the teleportation array and the plane channel!"
Saiyouwu reminded.
Although I don't know where these ghost soldiers came from, there must be a reason for such a big move.
The enemy is willing to pay such a price, only the teleportation array and the plane channel have the strategic value to match it.
"Let's go, we will go and guard it ourselves!"
The Saint King immediately ordered.
The teleportation array is related to the safety of hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line, and the plane channel is related to the fate of the entire Saint Clan.
For this invasion, the Saint Clan also spent a lot of money.
Just to build the teleportation magic array, the relevant material inventory of the clan was emptied, and a batch was purchased from neighbors at a high price.
Other strategic materials consumed are countless.
The current Kingdom of Destiny is now a large warehouse, gathering more than 80% of the family assets of the Saint Clan Royal Court.
In addition to strategic materials, they have dispatched half of the tribe's troops.
Half of them are fighting in the eastern theater on the mainland, and half of the troops are stationed in the Kingdom of God, waiting to reinforce.
According to the plan, as long as the two armies meet, they can launch a full-scale attack on the human race.
After gaining a foothold on the prairie and being able to accommodate a large number of troops. They can invite other Saint Clan countries to join and jointly launch this invasion war.
The group hurried forward, not noticing their whereabouts at all, and were stared at by the eyes of the sky.
"Nothing has happened, has it?"
The Saint King asked the guard.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. There are heavy troops guarding here, and there are many venerables in the tribe. Not even a fly can fly in!"
Hearing the definite answer, the Saint King's heart was relieved.
Nothing has happened, which means that the enemy has not discovered this place.
In his heart, he secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, the teleportation array was placed near the plane channel, and only heavy troops need to be deployed along the way.
...
"Let's go, today's mission is completed!"
Hudson said calmly.
If the law of fate had not been further improved and could cover up all traces, he would not have risked sneaking in to investigate.
Facts have proved that the power of the law of fate is indeed powerful. Even the strong men of the third level of the Holy Domain cannot detect his whereabouts.
In his heart, Hudson's understanding of the world has been further improved.
Entering this world, the fate of these invaders is included in the rules of fate, and they are affected by fate everywhere.
These changes in front of us seem to be the plans of the gods, but who can guarantee that these are not part of the evolution of fate!
As long as we kill these invaders, they will become the nutrients for the growth of the world.
If the world consciousness has wisdom, it will definitely not miss this opportunity.
"Hudson, I found thirty-seven Saint Domain strongmen in the enemy camp.
In the entire military camp, there may be as many as fifty or sixty strong men from the holy realm hidden, including some who are extremely powerful.
There are only thirty-four strong men from the holy realm in your expeditionary army.
The next battle between strong men can only be filled by the little guy at level 8 with his life.
What if the enemy ignores it and directly attacks the ships of the Expeditionary Corps? That scene..."
Bear Stearns said with an unscrupulous look.
It seems that watching Hudson deflate is a very pleasant thing!
The whole continent was in melee, and most of the strong men of the human race were restrained on the battlefield. Being able to mobilize so many strong men from the Holy Realm to join the battle is already the result of the coordination of the Human Alliance.
The Alpha Empire alone cannot mobilize so many strong men when there is war on all sides.
From this point of view, we must also thank the three countries of the Central Continent for their rapid collapse.
The covenant of the Five-Nation Alliance will not expire until next year, and before that, everyone will still be allies. After the situation in the three countries of the Central Continent completely deteriorated, the three royal families directly chose to go into exile in the Alpha Empire.
It was definitely the right choice. When faced with such a troublesome situation, it was definitely right to find allies to help restore the country.
As long as the Alpha Empire wants to lose face, it cannot end its alliance with them at this critical moment. They must be supported until the restoration of the country is completed.
Of course, in return, the remaining armed forces of the three countries joined the Alpha Empire's combat camp, including the surviving Sanctuary strongmen.
"Don't worry, these ships have good defensive magic arrays, they are not the fragile merchant ships you remember.
Even the magic crystal cannon has been modified and can hit targets accurately. You can tell by looking at the caliber that it's not the small cannons of the Army.
If they really dared to come over, believe it or not, they would be able to take away a few unlucky guys with just one volley.
After daybreak, you will know the power of these magic crystal cannons. I'm afraid your bearskin won't be able to withstand a few seconds! "
Hudson joked with a smile.
He has not lived in vain these past few decades.
No major political reforms were rashly carried out, but military and technological innovations continued.
The aristocracy of the Alpha Empire was conservative and never included military technology.
In recent decades, both the empire and the Xueyue Principality have invested heavily in military research and development.
The power of heavy artillery is beyond everyone's imagination. During the test launch, an abandoned military fortress in the empire was directly razed to the ground.
A salvo of eight magic crystal cannons on a large warship was more powerful than many forbidden spells.
The only drawback is that it is too bulky. Even after many modifications, the weight still starts at 30 tons.
On this basis, the second-generation heavy artillery built weighed fifty tons.
These big guys are destined to have no chance with the Army and can only let the Navy play their part.
As the attack power increases, the defense ability can only be passively upgraded.
Fortunately, the Xueyue Principality has a large number of magicians and a large amount of labor available, so they can directly copy the defensive formation of the magic tower.
On Hudson's flagship, not only were twelve giant magic crystal cannons deployed, but a magic tower was also built.
Affected by this, the ship's displacement jumped to 15,000 tons, making it the most awesome warship of the contemporary era.
The shipbuilding budget will naturally increase accordingly. Building one such giant is enough to build six 5,000-ton warships.
Traditional wooden warships can no longer meet the needs.
Following Hudson's suggestion, a thick layer of iron steel was added to the outside of the warship.
In order to ensure the smooth engraving of the magic circle, a variety of precious minerals including mithril were added to the steel plate.
A total of six million gold coins were spent to build this big guy. This expenditure was equivalent to one-sixth of the Alpha Empire's fiscal revenue.
Even if Hudson wants to continue, it will have to think twice before the high cost.
According to the Navy, the construction cost of the next Big Mac can be reduced by at least 1.5 million gold coins.
If we build a few more ships, the cost can continue to be reduced, but we still haven't been able to convince the senior officials of Xueyue Principality.
Without building warships, six million gold coins would be enough for the principal navy's daily expenses for four years.
Luxurious toys are enough to accompany the boss once. No one can bear the torment every day.
If the leader had not been Hudson, there would have been a lot of scolding in the court.
