Chapter 1012: Dispatching troops
Although it was approaching the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, the temperature still did not drop. Even in the Avarus Demon Kingdom, which was located at a higher latitude, the heat wave could still be felt every day, especially at noon. Almost no one wanted to go out in the hot sun. Everyone seemed to be melted by the sun and looked very lazy.
But on this day, Avarus made a big move.
Viola, wearing neat armor, rode on a horse and stood on the hillside, watching her army set off.
From this day on, Avarus officially joined the melee, and the target was the Tandron Demon Kingdom, which was being besieged by the Oswaya Demon Kingdom and the Laxuriya Demon Kingdom.
In terms of picking the weak persimmon, it would be more appropriate to change the target to the Subia Demon Kingdom. They were so scared by Li Chengxi that they didn't even dare to open the country's gate.
But after a study with the cabinet, Viola decided to deal with the Tandron Demon Kingdom in the mountains first. On the one hand, they were the most excited when we attacked Avarus, and we have to take revenge. On the other hand, attacking the Tandron Demon Kingdom first can also end the melee between the seven demon kingdoms as soon as possible.
Due to the aftermath of the return of the Demon King God, the current situation is like a reshuffle, which determines the distribution of interests for a long time in the future.
Viola cannot change this situation, nor does she want to change it. After all, Avarus also wants to benefit from this wave of reshuffles, but it does not mean that she is willing to let this war last too long.
In other words, it is to get the biggest benefit and restore stability as soon as possible.
In this case, then concentrate on attacking one point first, and then defeat them one by one.
Therefore, the Tandron Demon Kingdom was finally chosen as the target of the troops.
This time, Viola led about 50,000 troops directly under her, plus 30,000 troops sent by lords from various places, a total of 80,000 people set out in a mighty manner.
To be honest, this season is not a good time to send troops. The hot weather exacerbates food corruption and water consumption during marches.
The good news is that since Li Chengxi gave Viola the method of making compressed biscuits, this thing has now been mass-produced and distributed to the troops as military rations, which has greatly enhanced the army's ability to move.
At least there is no need to set up a stove to bake bread every day as before. When you need to speed up the march, you can just distribute compressed biscuits and eat them.
But then again, Viola went to the battlefield in person, which is different from before.
She used to be a princess of a fallen country and had to go to the battlefield. Now she is the regent and there is no need for her to go to the battlefield.
But the character of the Avarus family, who really goes to the battlefield when there is something wrong, gave the cabinet ministers a headache. They almost died and did not persuade Viola back.
She was quite confident and said something like there would be no problem with the blessing of the king. I will let Oldie stay. If I die in battle, let her succeed to the throne. Don't worry, we are invincible.
In short, it is a state that is difficult to convince the cabinet.
But she still came, which probably means that I have given the reason anyway, I will go, you can't control me, lelelelelele...
Zora, who is now the archbishop, was very angry, and a grand prayer ceremony was held for this reason, hoping that Li Chengxi could stop Viola from going there.
But Li Chengxi
He is not afraid of Viola going there. At most, he can shoot two mechanical angels. She must be tired of working hard every day, so she can go if she wants to.
Zora, who received the oracle, felt black in front of her eyes, and almost forgot that Li Chengxi is a person who loves his own people...
If the ministers had some complaints before, now that the Demon King God has spoken, everyone can only bite the bullet and agree.
So Viola appeared here and led the troops to the Tandron Demon Kingdom.
Viola set two goals for this war.
One is to destroy the Tandron Demon Kingdom, and then lead the army to flatten the Subia Demon Kingdom to avenge the destruction of the country.
Of course, this doesn't sound very achievable.
The second goal is relatively more realistic, which is to force the Tandron and Subia Demon Kingdoms to make peace, and by the way, to hit the Enwei Demon Kingdom that is allied with them, and bring them to the negotiation table.
Once they are on the table, they will definitely not leave without giving up some benefits. The requirements of territory, funds and opening up religious control are all expected.
Especially opening up religious control is particularly important.
In the years since the disappearance of the Demon King, the various Demon Kingdoms have long been occupied by other religions. Only Avarus still retains a base for the Demon King. Now this base is close to saturation and must expand outward.
Previously, the effects of sending priests to preach and printing the Demon King God's scriptures were not very obvious, but because Li Chengxi took back the demon clan priesthood, believers who consciously surrendered to the Demon King God began to appear gradually.
In other Demon Kingdoms, religion is not something you can do casually, and you need the permission of the ruler.
It must be the Subiya Demon Kingdom, where the official state religion is Lady of the Raging Waves, Hilofil, and the development of the Demon King Cult will be subject to official restrictions here.
Opening the restrictions is extremely beneficial to the spread of the Demon King Cult, and slowly let the faith of the Demon King God return to the top of this plane.
After all, now that the gods have fallen and no prayers are answered, it is an excellent development period for the Demon King Cult, and it cannot be delayed.
If this battle is successful, it can lay the foundation for peace for the next hundred years, and at the same time, it can also make the Demon King Cult flourish everywhere. Even for Viola, this is a holy war.
Li Chengxi's comment on this is, do whatever you want, I'll help you if something goes wrong.
I just hope it won't turn out like the Crusades...
–-——----
Compared to Viola, who has already sent troops and is preparing to join the event, Yang Yiyi's side seems much calmer.
Yang Yiyi and Wu Shaoyi have already followed Princess Mingzhu's convoy to leave Jingci Temple and head towards Lingyun Temple. It is expected to take ten days or half a month to get there.
Moreover, the monks in Jingci Temple are very kind. Since it was Yang Yiyi who helped to catch Xuanxiang, it would be meaningless if they didn't give her some benefits.
Before leaving, Xuanbei specially gave Yang Yiyi a martial arts secret book, saying that monks have nothing, so he would like to use this thing to express his feelings.
If Yang Yiyi was given money, she would really not take it, but the secret book was too much for her.
This kung fu is called "Demon Subduing Kung Fu".
Jingci Temple is good at fists, sticks and internal kung fu, among which internal kung fu is the most famous.
The demon-suppressing function greatly improves the body's ability to protect. When using the power, it is like a golden bell and iron cloth shirt, invulnerable to swords and guns, and invulnerable to water and fire. It can be said to be even more powerful when combined with Yang Yiyi's ultimate Vajra Gong.
The best part is that the demon-suppressing skill is not an internal skill, but a skill of using internal force, so it will not conflict with the Taoist ultimate Vajra Gong.
However, although it is said to be invulnerable to swords and guns, the demon-suppressing skill still has weaknesses.
The armpits and soles of the feet are the weaknesses.
The armpits are not easy to defend, and for the flexibility of the arms, it is not easy to use armor, so Yang Yiyi can only pay more attention to it.
However, the weakness of the soles of the feet is easy to deal with. We can just put steel plates on the soles of the shoes.
Li Chengxi directly opened the online shopping software and began to search for stores that customize titanium alloys, at least stainless steel.
But he immediately thought that since he had decided to put steel plates, why bother with steel or titanium alloys.
It should be better to ask Fang Lanyin to get two pieces of refined gold...
