Chapter 489 Hongmen County City

Chapter 489 Hongmen County City
The next morning.

The edge area of ​​Fufeng County.

A massive fleet advanced across the sky.

With the White Snake as the flagship, nine Immortal Warships surrounded it on both sides, and dense shadows of ships spread across the land. In the forest below, several reconnaissance groups were divided into small groups, keeping a close eye on the whereabouts of this fleet.

"Everyone hold on a little longer."

"The governor is on his way."

"The end of the bandits has come."

The investigator's deep voice came out.

In the ground force, several End of Days players moved forward together. As golden creatures that were good at reconnaissance, they were naturally incorporated into the reconnaissance sequence to form a special team.

The leader is the head of the End Battlefield Outpost Tower Adventure Group. He is completely covered in close-fitting and smooth armor. As the surrounding environment changes, the color of the armor keeps changing. The camouflage color of the extraordinary realm makes him almost blend into the scenery.

At a certain moment, a powerful aura that could not be ignored came from the back of the forest, like a landslide or tsunami. The lower-level creatures all had the idea of ​​retreating.

"Everyone, please pay attention. The Tianshui Jiedushi is here."

The leader of the sentry tower reminded him, and he silently glanced at the End Mission, which was to assist the Tianshui Army in destroying the White Snake Fleet. It did not involve any specific battles, and the life-and-death crisis was not actually that great, but the reward was very strange, an Undying-level skill scroll, or an Immortal-level item. The difference between the two was like heaven and earth.

The sentry tower leader looked up at the sky.

As expected, there should be someone in the fleet who is the target of the End, but he has not been identified and locked down yet.

call!
In an instant, the whole forest seemed to become wet.

A middle-aged figure stepped into the air, wearing an elegant robe embroidered with golden snake patterns. He held a crystal clear sword in his hand, and thick mist lingered around him.

The leader of the sentry tower couldn't help but sigh, "It's just like the bright moon in the sky."

hum!
As the Tianshui Jiedushi swung his sword, long swords made of rain and dew filled the sky above the forest, and then burst out together like an inverted rainstorm, attacking the White Snake fleet. The dense Tianshui long swords blocked all the fleet's retreat routes.

"Thieves, just surrender your head."

The Tianshui Jiedushi looked calm and confident that he could destroy one third of the enemy ships with one sword.

But in the next moment, a super-giant domain rose up, and the light released by the black sun made the domain barrier pitch black, completely wrapping all the warships, and then stuffed them all into the portable imperial city.

High in the sky, there is only someone hanging alone, with wings fluttering like a butterfly.

Tens of thousands of swords stabbed at him, but all of them missed.

Jiang He glanced calmly at the hero in front of him, immediately activated King's Landing, and disappeared on the spot.

"Damn it!" The Tianshui Jiedushi's face was extremely gloomy.

The entire fleet was transferred across space. This strategic-level capability should not appear in the rebels anyway. It was obvious that the mastermind behind the White Snake Group came from a powerful force in the Western Territory.
The commander of the sentry tower was also stunned. The fleet disappeared, and the enemy could only go to a few places. Even Fufeng County City had become a strategic bait. The answer was already clear.

On the ground, the scout commander shouted anxiously.

“The sky is falling!”

"Quickly notify Qingyu Main City that the enemy is attacking!"

……

Qingyu main city, Si family residence.

Back in Rong'en Hall, Jiang He sat on a chair and took out a pot of dragon blood wine to rinse his mouth.

Ever since his status rose to epic, the quality of the dragon's blood wine he brewed has reached immortality.

[Name: Dragon Blood Wine]
[Category: Auxiliary]
[Quality: Unbreakable]
[Effect ①: Rare wine/easy to store/fresh fragrance]
[Effect 2: Bronze Age creatures who drink it for the first time will gain a + effect on all attributes]
[Effect ③: The first time a Bronze Age creature drinks it, they will gain dragon blood physique (excellent grade)]
[Effect ④: Bronze Age creatures who drink it for the first time can obtain advanced self-healing]
[Note: Living in drunkenness and dreaming of death, dying is the beginning of life]
Jiang He quickly drank up the pot of wine. Since the Tianshui Jiedushi did not appear in front of him, it was likely that the other party did not have the ability to teleport, so he did not need to continue to move.

A giant domain gate rises.

The White Snake Fleet appeared above the Si family residence.

For the members of the fleet, it only took a moment for them to get dark before they arrived above the city, and it seemed to be the main city of Qingyu. The aggressive Tianshui Jiedushi disappeared.

Deputy Commander-in-Chief Dougs immediately made arrangements.

"The various streamlined regiments are ready to be airborne."

"Occupy the residences of each family as quickly as possible."

"The alert brigade is stationed on the ground to look after the fleet."

"All departments take action immediately!"

Tens of thousands of soldiers took action. The White Snake Group adhered to the rebels' policy of officerization. There were basically no Bronze Age creatures under its command. Its direct air force was composed entirely of peak Silver, and they were paired with Dawn people to operate warships. They rarely participated in ground combat.

The sudden appearance of the Fengtian rebels plunged the main city of Qingyu into panic. The heads of various families united and assembled private soldiers to protect themselves. The streets were in chaos. The residents of the main city fled into the buildings in panic, and some daring guys even started looting.

At the same time, Douglas and three evil generals were leading the Taoyuan Guild players and the evil guards to attack the city where the aristocratic families were gathering. Before retreating to the assembly area, these people took away the most precious resources.

The war escalated to a climax in an instant.

On the top of the city wall, Qianniu Gong, who had deployed heavy troops to defend the city walls, looked unhappy. For the sake of strategic depth, he arranged most of the reorganized division on the defense line outside the city. As a result, the enemy appeared from the inside, which meant that all his hard work was in vain.

"Humph, you're walking into a trap."

The golden eagle helmet released a strong light, and Lord Qianniu locked onto the strongest among the rebels. At this distance, he would not give the other party the opportunity to repeatedly slaughter his relatives and bloodline.

boom!
A beam of golden light shot out straight up.

A huge crisis struck, and a giant ship quickly broke away from the giant domain gate. It had a huge but smooth hull, solid scarlet armor, and dense black gun muzzles aimed at the front. The Immortal-class double-barreled main guns were mounted, and brilliant light gathered.

Jiang He's face showed a rare trace of pain, he couldn't help but remain indifferent, the immortal-level elemental spell cannon was indeed extremely powerful, but the energy consumption was also huge. When the cannon was fired, a million taels of gold would be wasted. The cost of an immortal artillery attack was the evaporation of 500,000 taels of source gold.

Boom!

Area artillery fire.

The elemental torrent swept forward.

Lord Qianniu, who was rushing forward at high speed, suddenly changed color, and the veins on his palm holding the sword were exposed. There were only a handful of Immortal-class Void Battleships even in such a huge empire, and there were only one or two of the aristocratic forces. He could not have expected that the White Snake Group alone would possess such a powerful weapon. It was really too extravagant.

Rumble!
The tsunami-like impact spread, shattering the entire Si family mansion. No grass grew in the fan-shaped area in front of it, and the torrent submerged Qianniu Gong. Its power did not decrease, and it continued to move forward until it hit the Qingyu city wall. The wall reinforced with the Unforgettable Originium was instantly shattered. Looking down from the sky, this bombardment forcibly opened up a river channel in the inner city.

Wisps of elements took on materialized light rain. Qianniu Gong stood in the "river channel". His epic golden eagle helmet and inner armor had shattered into powder. His strong body now looked like a piece of cracked porcelain, with cracks spreading all over his body.

"Thief!" Qianniu Gong roared and vomited blood, holding the heavy sword high in both hands, and the secret sword technique released a strong wave.

Whoosh!
The twin-barreled main guns of the Saint Lilith glowed.

Jiang He personally operated the turret to avoid missing the target due to not being able to keep up with the speed. This time, a single cannon was fired, and a stream of light burst out with extraordinary power.

clang!
Qianniu Gong gritted his teeth and chopped at the incoming cannon light. The long sword broke into pieces and the aftermath pierced his chest. It had only been two shots from the beginning to now, and the Saint Lilith almost killed him. This was under the premise that he had no hope of advancing and had to improve his physique.

"Come again!"

Lord Qianniu suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly, with blood foam oozing out from the corners of his mouth. He had already thought of how to cut the enemy into pieces. The Immortal-class Void Battleship was a powerful weapon, and every attack consumed its resources. Although the rebels had swept through various county towns, he felt that it was not certain whether there was enough source gold in those county towns that had been captured and recaptured.

Snapped!
He habitually snapped his fingers and typed it out.

An invisible wave quickly spread out.

"How can it be……"

Qianniu Gong's face froze instantly. At this moment, he finally understood the essence of the enemy's moves. It was not the forbidden magic he thought when he used the sword to slash through the air last time, but time, a powerful force that made time flow backwards.

Rumble!
The light of the regional artillery rose again.

The sudden explosion tore Qianniu Gong's body into pieces.

A brilliant gun light fell, and amid the roar of the dragon shadow, the soul's participation was completely annihilated.

Just a moment.

The Dragonlance returned to someone's hands because of "Phase Coexistence".

The Duke of the Empire fell here.

At the same time, in Qingyu City.

In a roadside teahouse, a middle-aged man who was sipping tea suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the battlefield. After three consecutive artillery bombardments, the aura of the Empire's Thousand Bulls completely disappeared.

"It's incredible."

"But didn't the tribe give us two?"

The head of the Jing family frowned secretly. The overall performance of the deep red battleship in the sky was much higher than that of a normal immortal battleship. Not only was the hull extremely strong, it was also equipped with two immortal main guns, which had the dual functions of area bombing and single-target attack.

To be honest, he was quite jealous. If Jiang Wuyang was not involved in a matter concerning his father's life and death, and both parties were in the same camp, it would be inevitable for him to fight for it. After all, few forces would refuse to use such a valuable weapon as their own wealth.

call!
The head of the Jing family disappeared from the teahouse.

He came here because he had received news in advance that there would be drastic changes on the war front, so he came here specifically to escort someone. Of course, more importantly, Yan Jun was an agent jointly elected by all parties, while Jiang Wuyang only had the Jing family label on him. To the Jing family, it was difficult to compare the two.

The starting point of the "river channel".

Jiang He turned around and saw a stream of light coming towards him.

"No harm, the one who enters the green fish first will be the king."

The head of the Jing family landed on the ground, looking very happy and amiable. He clasped his fists and said, "Please let Lord Wuyang be crowned king and become the leader of the Fengtian Army together with Lord Yan. The Jing family will not hesitate to help you."

……

At the same time, in the southern part of Cangwu Province.

Thousands of elite Tianshui officers launched a fierce attack on the hill, and Rao's direct descendants were defeated.

But anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Tianshui Army had not gone all out. The huge fleet consisting of ten division-level fleets remained suspended in the air without launching a single bombardment. On the high platform of the command center, the Sword Regiment Commander paced back and forth. He had already received the news that the deputy commander had fallen, and at this moment he wished he could rush back immediately.

"The commander-in-chief is mighty." The leader of the Sword Corps could not help but come to the side of Admiral Tianshui and said anxiously, "As long as the commander-in-chief takes action, the Yanrao Rebellion will be settled overnight."

General Tianshui was unmoved and said with a hearty smile: "Sword, do you know my current position of power?"

The Sword Corps Leader paused after hearing this, then said with a slight hesitation, "The Commander is the Governor-General of the Six Provinces who suppressed the rebellion. He is in charge of the military and political affairs. I admire him."

"Hahaha." Admiral Tianshui laughed and said, "Since you know that, you shouldn't have urged me. If there is no need to quell the rebellion, what do you need me as the governor for? Countless noble families in the Western Territory want to protect themselves in the war, so they have to ask me for help."

"You killed several peak masters in a row. I think highly of you. You can pick as many carts of gifts as you like from the gifts I sent you recently. Don't accuse me of mistreating my subordinates when you go out. Hahaha..."

The Sword Captain gave a forced smile upon hearing this.

Suddenly, the situation on the front line changed.

A group of gold-level warriors suddenly charged into the battlefield, blocking the Tianshui army's attack in just a moment, and fought back extremely fiercely. Among them, several salt dragon beasts unique to the Rao family kept wreaking havoc, causing serious casualties.

General Tianshui frowned and waved his hand.

The Sword Captain, as the personal guard, immediately went out upon receiving the signal, and the Hundred-Man Golden Guard rushed to the battlefield and filled the gaps one by one.

On the chaotic battlefield, Yan Jun personally led his troops to charge.

"Protect the head of the family!"

"The outcome has been decided, charge ahead brothers!"

"Kill me!"

The Sword Captain narrowed his eyes, clenched his hand holding the knife, then loosened it, and then clenched it again. If he could kill Yan Jun, he could complete the main task and go back to clean up the mess. The only pity was that the relationship he had carefully cultivated was bound to collapse, and Admiral Tianshui might even target him.

"Done!"

"With the strength of my unique skill, at this distance, Tianshuizhong will not be able to stop me in the future."

"Just one knife."

The Sword Captain abandoned the front line in front of him and rushed towards the core of the enemy. Energy poured out of his body. With the blessing of the system's core skill - epic energy catharsis, he swung out the Immortal Secret Technique - Dragon Slaying Sword, and the faint dragon roar swept across the battlefield.

boom!
The knife flashes.

Yan Jun, who had beheaded four End of Life players casually, looked up with a slightly cold gaze.

"I don't have time for your bullshit."

In an instant, the Salt Lord swung the six-ring heavy sword in his hand with all his might. The six salt rings hummed in unison, and six completely identical secret sword lights with the same power slashed out and merged with each other, creating an extraordinary attack that made the surrounding battlefield dead silent.

——Legendary secret technique: Echo of the Mountains.

The legendary secret technique does not refer to an attack that can rival a legendary one, but a secret technique created by a legendary creature.

The mountains echoed with the sound of Emperor Taizong of the Empire who fell a hundred years ago. He came to an end in the War of Annihilation, and barely returned to the border of the Empire before his death. His bones shattered like foam, leading to the birth of the largest salt drying site.

Click!

The echo of the mountains shattered the sword captain's attack, and its power was not reduced in the slightest, completely cutting the man vertically.

Yan Jun didn't even look at it. He suppressed the soreness in his arms and quickly turned around to take off the scroll from his waist.

hum!
The moment he saw the legendary secret method, Admiral Tianshui actually chose to take action himself. His sword was as light as a stream of light, and the aftermath cut the hill in half.

clang!
Yan Jun opened the scroll, and an armored warrior appeared, blocking the secret technique of Tianshui Yanyu with a heavy shield in his hand.

"The King's Servant..."

General Tianshui's expression darkened. According to rumors, Emperor Taizong had an extremely powerful royal guard, all of whom were ordinary heroes. However, due to the Battle of Annihilation, this group of royal servant puppets had disappeared since then. He didn't expect to see them here today.

The Lord of Salt is obviously the descendant of Emperor Taizong.

Only such an aura is enough to challenge the hereditary succession of the Western Palace for thousands of years.

Whoohoo!
A strong wind suddenly rose.

Three figures descended from the sky and surrounded General Tianshui.

The head of the Fu family sneered: "How can I not take revenge for the sword?"

"Your Majesty is young, and the Tianshui Army should not belong to the Western Border Palace." The head of the Yan family smiled and said, "It would be better for each family to jointly manage it."

Wansai Taishang said with emotion: "Why not surrender?"

Because of raising a tiger, he ended up in a dangerous situation.

Admiral Tianshui was so angry that he laughed, "You bunch of traitors, do you think I will surrender?"

boom!
He took the initiative to kill the Salt Lord. The situation had changed. The imperial family might really acquiesce to Taizong's heir to act as the agent of the western border.

For a time, the war broke out.

……

Millennium of the Empire, mid-May.

The main city of Qingyu was lost and Lord Qianniu was killed in battle.

The leader of the White Snake Group publicly declared that the royal palace was unkind, treacherous and corrupt officials were in power, chaos was everywhere, and he would use a three-foot sword to eliminate the chaos around the king, so he called himself the King of Suppressing Rebellion.

In the northern part of the province, various rebel forces responded one after another.

The leader of the White Snakes found the treasure hidden under the Green Fish City and obtained ten Immortal Warships with the Tiangong emblem, as well as hundreds of Supreme-class warships. At the same time, the Jing family announced that the Yu family's epic warship was missing and was suspected to have been stolen by the rebels.

At the same time, the elite troops of Tianshui Army were attacked, and the news of Admiral Tianshui's death swept across the north and south of Cangwu Province.

The main general and his elite troops were killed, the main city of Qingyu fell, and the Cangwu Province was declared fallen.

The Tianshui Jiedushi led the remaining troops to withdraw from the province and garrisoned in the Tianshui Fortress, which was adjacent to the Tianshui border of Cangwu.

In just one day, the Fengtian rebels revived, and a large number of forces that had been on the sidelines were defeated.

May 18th.

The secret letters from the heroes were sent to the main city of Qingyu, all of which were blank. King Yan of Fengtian invited King Pingluan to a banquet to join in the celebration. The venue was chosen in Hongmen County City, which was between the main city of Qingyu and Fufeng County City. King Yan said that he would define the status of each department at the banquet and formulate the next offensive strategy.

Qingyu City, a separate courtyard for worshipping the Si family.

This courtyard used to be a residence donated by Old Lady Si for worship. Now the old lady has long passed away and the Si family is no longer prosperous. When Jiang He returned here, the surface of the utensils was covered with a thin layer of dust.

"Your Majesty, you must not go." The young marquis said terrified, "What if an axe strikes me?"

In the courtyard, the head of the Jing family and the Great Master of Tiangong sipped tea. Both of them were heroic creatures who had met their end. The former said slowly:

"If we don't go, we will be cut off from the Fengtian Army. 70% of the military supplies may not be that important, but other forces will definitely not sit idly by and watch the ones they didn't bet on grow stronger."

The implication of the head of the Jing family is very simple. The Fengtian Army is a collection of local wills, and only this collection can fight against the central government. If taken alone, even if it is the aristocratic Jing family, they will be dead if they dare to rebel. Only if everyone works together can there be a chance of victory.

"Your Majesty, please be cautious."

"Right now in the court, the prime ministers are silent. About half of them are in favor of fighting to quell the rebellion, while the other half are requesting the removal of the King of the Western Territory. The Western Territory forces have made considerable contributions."

Tiangong Taishang was in a very difficult situation. If he didn't go, he and the Tiangong Sect would be destined to draw a clear line between peace and rebellion. The Salt and Rao Rebellion was essentially a counterattack by the local area against the central government, but if someone was really foolish enough to set up his own banner and even thought that he could defeat the empire, the heroes and strong men of the central government would not mind taking a public trip.

The reason why the Western Territory is allowed to fall into chaos is simply because there are intricate ties of interest between these heroes and the local area. Behind the suppression of the chaos and the rebellion, everyone actually sees each other every day.

The attitudes of the two heroes basically represent the officers at all levels of the White Snake Group today.

Dougs said nothing, and turned his head to look at the young man sitting on the steps drinking. The other party didn't seem to care much about this matter.

"Then go."

Jiang He said casually: "The place name is quite auspicious."

The head of the Jing family and the Supreme Master of Tiangong both breathed a sigh of relief. There were factions within the rebel army, and Jiang Wuyang could better realize his own interests. For the Tiangong Sect, the more powerful the White Snake Fleet was, the higher the sales of warships would be.

Jiang He couldn't help but ponder. He had used this trick of holding meetings many times, and this time it was his turn.

Theoretically, Yan Jun should not take action, but if he were the host, he would definitely kill him.

The banquet was scheduled for dusk three days later. It wasn't too far from Qingyu City to Hongmen County City, so Jiang He simply ordered, "Send all the artillery shells to me."

"Bring all the source gold reserves here."

"Aya, notify Lao Hei and ask the Duke to come over."

"Twenty Immortal Warships and three hundred Supreme Warships have gathered and landed at the Si Family ruins at the door."

"The evil guards continue to collect skills."

Orders were given one after another, and the two heroes said goodbye and left. Jiang He had ten large boxes brought over, and used the power of gluttony to refine the source gold inside for cultivation.

At the same time, the progress is accelerated by using a large number of rare and precious fruits that have been looted. If source gold is a universal and basic resource for cultivation, then a variety of rare and precious things are the key to widening the gap between the children of aristocratic families and ordinary source power practitioners.

Furthermore, when he called himself the King of Suppressing Rebellion, he was given an exclusive title.

[Hint: Your Immortal-level title, Marquis of Suppression of Chaos, is upgraded to the epic-level King of Suppression of Chaos, with an additional charm value of +3. When you enter the corresponding world of the fourth order, you will obtain the initial identity: King of Suppression of Chaos, and the effect of your spiritual talent, the King's Might, will be amplified, which can have a serious impact on ordinary golden creatures.]
[Hint: You have cultivated a second Sun Source Crystal, the energy property of Burning has been upgraded to Unfading Level LV30, Energy Value +2000, Strength, Constitution, Agility Value +1, Core Value Charm +3 (Source Crystal Enhanced)]
[Energy value: 61000]
[Strength: 48+2 → 49+2]
[Agility: 48+2 → 49+2]
[Constitution: 48+2→49+2]
[Spirit: 50+2]
[Charm: 56+8→59+11]
Jiang He said nothing and had no expression on his face.

His mind sensed the barrier, but the charm did not.

"Something is wrong. There is definitely something wrong."

"This is simply the growth rate of lust."

Jiang He examined himself and found nothing. At this point, he even really began to consider looking for some charm techniques.

The White Snake fleet landed, and Jiang He released the black sun light to engulf the ultimate battleships, strengthening them one by one into immortal props. When the shells were delivered, the upgrade of the chaos explosion engineer was immediately launched.
