Chapter 222: The army is approaching Tianluo Pass, and the finances of Tiandou Kingdom are tight.
Originally, according to Lin Feng's plan, they would stay in the Star Forest for fifteen days, which meant two days for each of the Shrek Seven Devils to improve their strength.
But Xiao Wu is only at level 59 now, and Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, because they shot together and refined the soul ring together, the progress has been accelerated a lot. At noon on the tenth day when everyone entered the Star Dou Forest, Ma Hongjun has already absorbed the soul ring and the attached soul bone.
This means that everyone should leave the Star Dou Forest next.
According to the original plan, it would take one day for the seven monsters to improve their strength. After the battle, it would take another day to rest.
However, they can also start practicing while returning to the Tiandou Empire.
On the other side, the situation of the Tiandou Empire in recent days has not been very good.
After receiving the letter from Lin Feng, Bibi Dong immediately stopped the soul masters that Wuhun Palace could still mobilize and came to Tianluo Pass on the western border of Tiandou Empire.
The army's pressure on the territory made the entire Tiandou Empire become nervous.
The army that was originally responsible for keeping a close eye on the various Wuhun Palace branches in the country immediately began to take action, approaching Tianluo Pass.
Now in Tianluo Pass, the Tiandou Empire has assembled an army of 50, with nearly [-] soul masters of various levels. Emperor Xueye even made bold statements. From this moment on, the Tiandou Empire and Wuhun Palace are incompatible. In the end, only one person can survive.
Naturally, Wuhun Palace was not to be outdone. Forty thousand soul masters came outside the Tianluo Empire. This number shocked the Tiandou Empire.
You must know that there are only 5 registered soul masters in the entire Tiandou Empire. Even if those unregistered soul masters are included, the number will not reach 6.
At least one-third of them belong to Wuhun Palace.
Moreover, those who can enter the Spirit Hall must be elites, and they are not comparable to those ordinary spirit masters.
Only then did people realize that over the years, Wuhun Palace had been working intensively in the Star Luo Empire and the Tiandou Empire. It had already penetrated into many places quietly and attracted countless talents.
But although the soul master is powerful, the army of Tiandou Empire is also not a vegetarian.
The overall strength of the soul masters sent by Wuhun Palace are mostly above level [-], while the Tiandou Empire's army is generally [-]th level soul masters. Except for the generals in the army, others are not very strong. .
After all, if they had the talent for cultivation, they would have become professional soul masters long ago, and why would they join the army?
But the army also has its own advantages. On the one hand, the number of troops often crushes the opponent. It can use the human sea tactic. Even if it is very easy for high-level soul masters to kill low-level soul masters, it still requires a lot of physical strength. When facing an endless stream of enemies, At that time, once their soul power was exhausted, they were no different from ordinary people.
Under this premise, the army can completely crush its opponents by relying on mutual understanding and teamwork.
However, one thing that can be expected is that once the battle between the two sides begins, there will definitely be rivers of blood inside and outside Tianluo Pass, but even so, the Tiandou Empire still has no intention of withdrawing its troops.
But Emperor Xueye ignored another thing.
The Wuhun Palace branch in the Tiandou Empire was previously guarded by a large number of troops, so there was no way to take action.
However, as a large army pressed down on the Tianluo Pass border, the atmosphere in the country became tense. A large number of troops had to be mobilized around Tianluo Pass. There were definitely not that many soldiers in the country to guard the Wuhundian branch.
But they cannot allow these branches to move freely, otherwise when the time comes to unite inside and outside Wuhun Hall, the Tiandou Empire will definitely lose quickly.
In order to solve this problem, Emperor Xue Ye came up with an idea, that is, to leave a part of the army in the country for mobilization at any time, and then place an army around every four or five Wuhun Palace branches, which is enough to eliminate one Wuhun Palace branch. army.
In this way, as long as there is any abnormal movement in the surrounding Wuhun Palace branch, they can immediately send troops to suppress it.
In addition, Emperor Xue Ye also began to spare no effort to use money to win over the people of Wuhun Palace, especially the bishops in the branch. As long as he could win them under his command, it would simultaneously weaken the opponent and strengthen the Own.
Although this will add a lot of financial burden to the empire, at this juncture, Emperor Xueye can no longer care about that much.
He only has one thought now, which is to eliminate Wuhun Palace, because even his most proud son died in the hands of Wuhun Palace. Although it sounds like nothing, after all, Emperor Xue Ye has other sons.
However, for more than ten years, Emperor Xue Ye always trained Qian Renxue's disguised Xue Qinghe as his successor. Unexpectedly, Xue Qinghe turned out to be a fake at all. No matter who it was, such a blow would be very serious. Hard to accept.
As a result, Emperor Xue Ye's mentality was naturally close to collapse.
From this moment on, he had made up his mind to eliminate Wuhun Palace at all costs.
But what Emperor Xue Ye didn't know was that the Tiandou Empire had already secretly become a victim of Lin Feng's heart. Within the Tiandou Empire, branches of the Spirit Hall in various places were secretly communicating, but they But he didn't act in a hurry.
They are waiting for an opportunity.
At the border of the Tiandou Empire, this was already the tenth day that the Wuhun Palace army was pressing on the border.
But there was still no movement from both sides. Although Wuhundian wanted to launch an attack, there was still no move. Although the Tiandou Empire's army was not without a chance of winning, the best way was to defend and counterattack. If they took the initiative to attack, they might let themselves suffer. In trouble.
As a result, the Tiandou Empire no longer dared to act rashly.
But this made Xue Long, the general of the Tiandou Empire, feel very tormented. On the one hand, the war at the front had not progressed, so he did not dare to act rashly. On the other hand, the letters from Emperor Xue Ye at the rear kept asking about the battle situation on the front, which made him feel very tortured. He was overwhelmed.
The most important thing is that the army stationed at the border consumes a huge amount of food every day. Even if the Tiandou Empire is strong and can support it in a short period of time, it will definitely spend a lot of money over time.
Not to mention that Emperor Xueye also used money offensive against the soul masters of Wuhun Palace.
If this continues, the Tiandou Empire will fall into financial crisis within two months at most.
Under such circumstances, in order to be able to meet the expenses of the war, Emperor Xueye must start taxing the citizens, but if he does that, the people will definitely be dissatisfied.
Although there are not many historical documents about this world, some clues can be roughly discerned.
There were not many empires in the past that eventually collapsed for similar reasons.
