Chapter 2474: Changes in Sand City

~10 min read 1,899 words

The equipment effect of the 【Ring of Peniel】 was unknown, but the introduction of this thing was very interesting.

Su Xiao learned from Laidun Hongxu that Peniel was the surname of the first Sand Emperor. This line of Sand Emperors was cut off decades ago. It was the current Sand Emperor's father who killed the king to seize the throne, and Uno was an accomplice, which was why he obtained his current status.

Laidun Hongxu had said before that the bloodline of the Peniel family was cut off. After Su Xiao obtained the 【Ring of Peniel】, he determined that the bloodline of the Peniel family hadn't been cut off.

The descendants of this family had a connection with the 【Ring of Peniel】. When the bloodline of the Peniel family was cut off, this Holy Spirit-level ring would shatter.

The durability of this equipment was outrageously high. In the same volume, it should be the hardest thing in this world, which was why the first Sand Emperor forged this material into a ring to represent the royal power of the Peniel family.

The treasure chests were opened, and the gains in soul coins were very satisfying. If he continued to attack Peru, there wouldn't be a shortage of war-type epic-level treasure chests.

It wasn't dawn yet. Su Xiao had nothing to do, so he lay on the bed to take a nap. Bubu Wang beside him was sleeping until he drooled. The war before had exhausted it.

Early the next morning, the sun climbed slowly from the horizon. A friendly troop of nearly 20,000 people arrived at Segona City.

Counting the previous few batches, at least 100,000 soldiers had gathered in Segona City. These were all soldiers conscripted from various Commanders-in-Chief on the central battlefield, and the purpose was only one: to invade the Peru Kingdom and sweep away the decadence of constant defeat over the years.

As of 7:00 AM, the last batch of friendly troops arrived at Segona City.

Su Xiao looked at the half-box of honors on the table. Compared to these things, the 180,000 soldiers who had just arrived were more important.

Counting these 180,000 soldiers, the number of soldiers under Su Xiao's command reached 300,000, reaching the full establishment of a Commander-in-Chief. Thinking back to when he left Sand City with 20,000 soldiers, it was indeed a bit shivering at that time, and he could only retreat after detecting a large troop of the enemy.

Besides 300,000 soldiers, there were supplies, etc. Weapons weren't important; the weapons captured from the dwarves were better. Fighting all the way here, the accumulated weapons were enough to arm 300,000 soldiers. Armor was very important. Excluding these, there were large groups of white-horned beasts transporting supplies.

Holding 300,000 troops, not to mention anything else, Su Xiao was now absolutely one of the few people with the most say in the Sand Flame Kingdom. On the surface, even if Uno and Carola wanted to eliminate him, they would have to fear many things.

According to Su Xiao's judgment, the enemy defenders at the Peru border had completed their stationing. Sand City's meaning was to let Su Xiao divide the 300,000 soldiers under his command into three groups and invade the Peru Kingdom from three directions.

Su Xiao, of course, wouldn't do this. When the soldiers were too far from him, the buff effect of 【War Lord】 would be lifted, and at that time, elite soldiers would become ordinary soldiers again.

He couldn't continue to wait. He had to invade the Peru Kingdom as soon as possible. Thinking of this, Su Xiao put down the book in his hand. Through this book, he knew that the situation in Sand City was more complicated than he had imagined.

Not considering Sand City for the moment, Su Xiao ordered deputy commander-in-chief Aus to integrate the troops and bring all supplies.

Two hours later, the main gate of Segona City opened, and the soldiers in neat queues began to march out of the city.

Not long after, Segona City became an empty city, not even a ghost shadow. That's right, Su Xiao didn't leave even one soldier to guard the city. He wanted to take all the soldiers under his command and rush directly into Peru territory.

After learning that Segona City had become an empty city, Commander-in-Chief Nieposo in the rear was trembling with anger. Segona City, which had been captured with such difficulty, was just abandoned like this?

Commander-in-Chief Nieposo immediately sent 50,000 soldiers straight to Segona City. On the central battlefield, the most relaxed Commander-in-Chief was Nieposo. He was behind Su Xiao. Su Xiao had beaten the Peru Kingdom into such a miserable state that no dwarf troops would go to trouble Nieposo.

A magical scene appeared. Su Xiao was fighting for territory in front, and Nieposo was occupying territory in the back. The one fighting for territory hadn't been like this, but the one occupying territory was tired until he had sweat on his forehead.

After the Peru Kingdom withdrew from this battlefield, 15 fortress cities were vacated. Nieposo had been busy with these. In the past, it was that there weren't enough soldiers when fighting a war, but now it became that there weren't enough soldiers to station in the fortress cities.

Su Xiao's subsequent supplies were Nieposo's responsibility. The Sand Emperor gave a death order: if supplies were delayed, Nieposo wouldn't have to be a Commander-in-Chief anymore.

At this time on the central battlefield, the Sand Flame defense line was in a Λ shape. The tip of the Λ was Segona City. If Su Xiao could continue to attack Peru's territory, the Λ shape would be continuously stretched.

300,000 troops marched majestically on the grassland. This could already be considered Peru territory. After marching for half an hour, the enemy's defense line appeared in front, which was a dwarf troop of 200,000.

At this time in the dwarf camp, the dwarf officers who learned that 300,000 troops were attacking were all bewildered. He couldn't figure out what the enemy leader was thinking. Even if he wanted to invade their Peru territory, shouldn't he swallow it step by step? Occupy it steadily? What kind of war tactic was rushing over all at once? Not guarding the rear?

With the marching speed of Su Xiao's troops, before other troops of Peru arrived, the war broke out.

*Boom, boom, boom! *

Black oil barrels fell from above one after another. The Black Dragon Midis sprayed black flames, burning a small part of the enemy's war machines, and began to destroy the enemy's stationing area.

The ones stationed here weren't ordinary dwarf soldiers, but also a group of elites, but they were much worse than the Ram Cavalry Regiment.

Six hours after the war started, the battlefield calmed down. In such a short time, plus the enemy's strength wasn't weak, of course, it was impossible to annihilate the enemy.

Su Xiao stood at the rear of the battlefield, checking the hints from Reincarnation Paradise.

【You have obtained 3,205 military merit points.】

Military merit wasn't enough. Su Xiao was prepared to accumulate military merit to upgrade the 【War Lord】 to a five-star title. War Lord was the foundation for him to win battles.

Just after forcing back the enemy defenders, the sound of shields knocking came from the surrounding area. The enemy's reinforcements arrived. The enemy defenders who had strategically retreated before returned.

A tragic plain battle broke out. After Su Xiao had 300,000 soldiers, his combat power was completely different from before. When the sun was poisonous at noon, the enemy couldn't withstand the pressure and began to retreat.

A tug-of-war began. By that afternoon, Su Xiao had forgotten how many dwarf legions he had fought with. After beating one, he changed to another. Strangely, the Ram Cavalry Regiment never showed up.

With the Ram Cavalry Regiment not appearing, no one could block Su Xiao at all. At 3:00 that afternoon, Su Xiao captured the first city inside Peru, Shenguang City.

Su Xiao didn't fight too hard in front. Nieposo in the rear had a headache. As the arrow-stretching unit of his own defense line, every time he fought out a distance, Nieposo had to set up a defense line. When the defense line was set up in Peru territory, Nieposo began to worry.

Once Su Xiao in front couldn't hold on, Nieposo in the rear would also be unlucky. The worst result was that everything was in vain and he was pushed back to the central battlefield.

Su Xiao guessed the Peru King's purpose. When his own battle line was stretched too long, once dwarf troops cut off the defense line from the rear, it would be equivalent to separating Su Xiao from Nieposo and completely surrounding Su Xiao's troops.

Attacking into Peru bit by bit was too slow. Su Xiao was gambling. When military merit was accumulated enough, and the 【War Lord】 title was upgraded to five stars, he would be able to have a head-on battle with the Ram Cavalry Regiment.

Su Xiao crossed "Shenguang City" and was about to march toward Peru's "Luochui Mountain Range" when something Su Xiao never expected happened. He received three military orders at the same time, ordering him to immediately take his troops back to Shenguang City and return to Sand City himself to recuperate, on the grounds that Su Xiao was too radical.

This military order was proposed by Grand Priest Uno, and the Sand Emperor and Carola also nodded.

Letting Su Xiao return to Sand City at this time was something that couldn't be explained. Even if he fought radically, he should have retreated to Segona City.

Inside the camp of the stationing area, Su Xiao looked at the sheepskin paper in his hand. Just as he was about to tear this thing up, he noticed that the flame pattern on the edge was a bit strange.

Su Xiao rubbed the flame pattern on the sheepskin paper with his thumb. It faded, and there was a line of small characters under the flame pattern.

"Luo Sai Palace, Uno, fountain, first meeting, poison beating, temporary alliance, target is you, return to Sand City."

The handwriting was very sloppy. It was written by Uno. This feeling was like the other party writing these words under some kind of interference.

Su Xiao rubbed his temples lightly. Soon, the thoughts in his brain were sorted out. The rule-breaker's showy operations were shown to him again, which was simply suffocating. The other party was a dead brain, always thinking about manipulating power-holders, and didn't look at what the situation in Sand City was at all. There was a good show about to be staged in Sand City.

Su Xiao rubbed his brow lightly. Soon, the thoughts in his mind straightened out. The rule-breaker's flashy operations had impressed him again; it was simply suffocating. The opponent was stubborn, constantly thinking about manipulating the power-holders, without even looking at the situation in Sand City. A good show was about to be staged in Sand City.

Saw Poison really had no other choice, which was why he took the huge risk of controlling Grand Priest Uno. He was also very desperate. ===== CHAPTER 2475 =====

Ju Du was truly out of options, which was why he took the huge risk of controlling High Priest Uno. He was also in despair.
