Chapter 143 The Sudden War
Facing Yakubu's decision, the other elders at the meeting did not speak out against it.
On the one hand, it was because of Yakubu's authority.
On the other hand, it was because this approach was indeed the safest choice at the moment.
For the lords, the local forces seemed relatively mysterious and full of unknowns, but for the local forces, the lord forces were even more powerful in this regard. After all, they were the forces that could even dispel the gray fog.
Not to mention, Azure Sky Island had already experienced the power of the Dark Night Mission.
On the one hand, to avoid hostility with the Dark Night Kingdom, on the other hand, to obtain intelligence information as quickly as possible, was the most correct choice.
However, just when Yakubu was about to discuss the details, an official knocked on the door, looking hurried.
Seeing this, the eyes of the other elders also became solemn.
As the highest authority on Azure Sky Island, the Elders' Council must not be easily disturbed when holding an elders' meeting, but on the other hand, once this happens, it means that the matter will definitely not be small.
When the official used magic to transmit the sound to Yakubu's ears, Yakubu's expression became more and more surprised.
Until the end.
He couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Where do they get the courage?"
"Great Elder Yakubu, what happened?"
The other elders finally couldn't stand it anymore and asked one after another.
They were even a little nervous.
Although the situation has been getting worse over the past hundred years, it is still stable for them, but recently, everyone can feel the breath of the storm, and their nerves have been very tense.
Yakubu did not hide it. After a long silence, he said: "Gest City invites us to form a coalition to launch a war against the mysterious forces on the ground."
"What?"
As expected, all the elders were shocked.
They were stunned.
"Gester City? The floating city built by the human duke?"
"Where do they get the courage!"
"It's totally incomprehensible. Just based on their strength?"
"It's called a city, but more than a hundred years ago, that area was at most a small city!"
"They only have 20,000 to 30,000 people now. Can they form an army of 3,000 people?"
"."
It's no wonder they were so surprised.
Because although this Gester City is also one of the large floating forces that have been stationed in the Dark Night Forest for a long time, it is no match for the Azure Sky Island in all aspects.
And they, the Azure Sky Island, are cautious and full of worries here, and they dare not even express their anger. The Gester City over there actually directly said that it wants to start a war?
"The messenger sent by the city of Gust said that although the ground forces have the mysterious power to dispel the gray fog, they are very weak in terms of military strength. They have already captured many territories without gray fog and are now preparing to capture a city on the ground. They invited our coalition forces just to make it easier to attack and reduce losses. They are also willing to share the city with us." Yakubu frowned and finished his words.
He was also very puzzled by his expression.
At this time, the other elders fell silent one by one.
They looked at each other and could see the same emotion in each other's eyes.
That is passion!
A city on the ground that has not been eroded by gray fog!
They have lived in the sky for more than a hundred years. Whether it is air, environment, or resources, they are simply incomparable to those on the ground. Some people dream of returning to live on the ground. At this time, tell them that they have the opportunity to obtain a city on the ground? !
No matter how vigilant they are in their hearts, they can't control their desire.
"If even the city of Gust can capture a large area of land," even the goblin elder who just spoke to let everyone accept the reality, his eyes were also hot at this time, "Then we, can't we do it even better!"
"But we have all seen the strength of the Dark Night Kingdom with our own eyes." Yakubu glanced at Canero, who had been silent all the time.
"But the Dark Night Kingdom is the mysterious force that appeared on the ground, and this is just our guess." The sheep-headed elder also spoke up, "Maybe the Dark Night Kingdom also captured the ground forces and seized the kind of force that can dispel the gray fog? Great Elder Yakubu, the earth is so vast!"
I have to admit that the last sentence of the sheep-headed elder completely moved Yakubu.
Yes, the earth is so vast.
They only have a few people left. As long as they get the ability to dispel the gray fog and even build a city on the ground, they can find a place to settle down and regain their past glory.
More importantly.
When the goat-headed elders and goblin elders, who represented different opinions, reached a consensus, even he had no power to object.
"Knight Commander Canero!" Yakubu said.
"Here!" Canero stood up, his body straight.
"I hope the last failure didn't completely wear out your courage." Yakubu looked at the young tribesman.
"Canero is willing to give everything for the Azure Sky Royal Court!" Canero clenched his fist and hit his armor.
"Okay! I order you to take fifty royal knights and two thousand guards to follow the envoys of Gust City to check the situation. If the mysterious forces on the ground are really as weak as they say, our lingering future will be changed by you!" Yakubu said at the end, even he couldn't help but show uncontrollable excitement in his tone.
"Yes!" Canero said loudly.
The last disastrous defeat did hit him hard.
But he has recovered.
That time it was not because he was too weak, but because the enemy was too strong!
Remember the shame of defeat, and then move forward bravely, that is the way of knights!
So, after the meeting, Canero quickly reorganized the soldiers.
…
At this moment, on the earth, in the eastern part of the Dark Night Forest, in a newly built alliance city, many lords gathered together, the atmosphere was solemn, and some people's faces were even pale.
"That group of cruel natives have realized that if they kill the lord, the territory will disappear, but they killed all the people in the territory, and then imprisoned the lord and even cut off his legs and hands, ears and tongue, and even dug out his eyes. To me, it's better to die than to fall to that point." A lord who was obviously sitting in the main seat was also a little pale, but more angry.
Just the day before yesterday, thousands of natives wearing armor and holding weapons suddenly fell from the sky, and without saying a word, they directly began to attack the territories of some lords.
At the beginning, they killed everyone they saw.
The war came too suddenly. Except for the lords with rare people, ordinary lords had little power to resist.
It seems that the lords are no longer killed now, but the scenes seen by some reconnaissance people made everyone present horrified.
Human stick!
Can't live, can't die!
This is almost one of the cruelest ways to treat humans.
Even though they have experienced brutal fighting for a period of time, it was only for self-protection and to compete for interests, and they would never use such brutal means!
This group of natives did not treat them as human beings at all, and all their actions were full of barbarity and tyranny that modern society could not imagine.
"Leader, we must fight them!" A lord shouted frantically, "Call all the lords above the rare level, and we can at least gather an extraordinary army with a minimum strength of level 2 or above!"
These words obviously resonated with many people.
For a while, one lord after another stood up and shouted.
"Yes, fight, the worst that can happen is death!"
"I would rather die in the hands of my own people than be made into a human stick by the natives!"
"Fuck! We, the time travelers, can be forced to this extent by the natives, what a shame!"
"Leader, if you don't dare to fight, just give up your position and let the brothers who dare to fight be the leader!"
"."
Unlike the northwest area of the Dark Night Forest, which entered the stage of peaceful development early, the East Area of the Dark Night Forest, like most areas, experienced a period of chaos and cruelty during the first world event.
Those who can survive to this day, no matter how harmless they were on Earth in the past, can't be bloodless now.
Under the threat of the enemy, each one is even more bloody.
It can be said that if the leader really behaves timidly at this time, he will really be pulled down by a group of lords.
The leader's authority can't protect him.
However, how can it be simple to become the leader at this time and even build the first alliance city?
"Who said I don't dare to fight! Who said that?" The leader's expression became ferocious, "I don't want to stain my compatriots' blood on my hands, and I have stained a lot of it. Why would I be afraid of a group of natives? But I don't think about whether to fight or not, but how to win! If we lose, we will all be turned into human sticks, which is useless! We are going to conquer the heavens and the worlds in the future, how can we fail at the beginning?"
These words made some people who were full of blood gradually calm down.
Calm down a little.
That's right, the enemy has been forced to this point, and there is no choice but to surrender. It is impossible not to fight.
But the question is, how to win!
"The number of those natives is not large, but those who have undergone body modification are difficult enough. I estimate that each of them has at least the strength of a fourth-level boss." A young lord who has always been calm said, and then looked at the leader, "What is the attitude of the Zongheng Alliance and the Bulu Alliance?"
In the eastern area of the Dark Night Forest, there are seven or eight alliances of all sizes.
However, there are only three that truly concentrate most of the region's strength.
They are the strongest "Chang'an League", and the second and third strongest "Zongheng League" and "Buluo League", which are almost the same.
The leader of the Chang'an League is named Li Shi, which is only one character different from the name of Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, so he took this name.
As soon as he was attacked by the natives today, he found the other two alliances in the district channel.
