Chapter 627
"Master Marshal, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Zhao Hu said with a smile on his face, looking at Long Qian who had just finished bathing and was wearing gorgeous clothes.

"But I don't want to see you, at least, I don't want to see you as a prisoner!" Hearing Zhao Hu's words, Long Qian stared at Zhao Hu carefully for a while, and then said calmly.

"Master Marshal, you are not a prisoner now, but a guest of our city of Andy! Only when there is a misunderstanding between our city of Andy and the empire will we meet with each other. After the misunderstanding between our city of Andy and the empire is resolved, we Andy The city is still part of the empire, and your Excellency is still the marshal of the empire!" Hearing what Long Qian said, Zhao Hu smiled slightly.

Although Zhao Hu is more confident in the armed forces of Andy City, and believes that the armed forces under his command can defeat the army of the empire, and even seize control of the empire, but Zhao Hu does not have enough manpower to manage the land of the empire. It is meaningless to capture all the land of the empire.

Of course, if the dignitaries and courtiers of the empire are willing to take refuge in Andy City and work for Andy City, then Andy City will have enough manpower to rule the empire and maintain the stability and order of the empire.

However, it is almost impossible for the dignitaries and courtiers of the empire to seek refuge in Andy City!After all, the imperial dignitaries and courtiers have vested interests, so how could they work for Zhao Hu, who is competing with them for their interests!
Since it is impossible to fight for the control of the empire, Zhao Hu's best choice is to become the fourth largest family of the empire and become the overlord of the empire by virtue of this war. Therefore, Zhao Hu is very polite to Long Qian and treats him Be a guest, a bargaining chip, not a prisoner or captive.

"After this war is over, Andy City may still be a part of the empire, but I may not be the marshal of the empire anymore!" Hearing Zhao Hu's words, Long Qian immediately understood Zhao Hu's intentions, sighed, Said with a look of helplessness.

It is impossible for the empire to let a defeated person continue to serve as the marshal of the empire, because it would do too much harm to the army. Qian continued to serve as the marshal of the empire, and the best result for Long Qian was to be a member of the royal family in peace and stability, enjoying a luxurious and rich life.

Hearing Long Qian's words, Zhao Hu smiled slightly, but did not respond, but directly changed the topic and started talking with Long Qian.

"It's time to sit down and have a talk with the empire!" Looking at the back of Long Qian leaving, Zhao Hu smiled slightly.

"What? The empire's standing first and second legions were wiped out. The marshal of the empire and more than a dozen generals of the empire were all captured in Andy City. Confer all the land to the Zhao family as a private domain, and confer Zhao Kun hereditary duke?" Hearing the internal officer's report, Long Kun was furious and roared with a livid face.

"Your Majesty, according to the information reported by the spies, the Empire's Standing First Army and Second Army have indeed been defeated and wiped out by the army of Andy City. Any armed force that can resist the army of Andy City exists, as long as Andy City is willing, it can send an army at any time to occupy the land within a radius of three thousand miles of Andy City!" Hearing Long Kun's roar, the insider The official reported in a terrified voice.

"It's delusional to want me to admit defeat and separate the empire's three thousand miles of land! Send me an order to let the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh standing legions of the empire and the four sides of the empire The army is ready to go out and be ready to go out to encircle and suppress the rebels in Andy City at any time. At the same time, I will send envoys to Andy City to announce my order, let Andy City surrender unconditionally within three days, and hand over advanced alchemy and metallurgy techniques , I can let their Zhao family leave the empire with their finances, otherwise, the empire's millions of troops will come to Andy city, encircle and suppress Andy city, and kill the entire Zhao family!" Hearing the report from the internal officer, Long Kun was full of anger The color shouted loudly.

Hearing Long Kun's words, the internal officer's heart tightened, and he wanted to persuade him, but when he saw the angry look on Long Kun's face and the ferocious aura released from his body, he flinched helplessly and responded loudly. With a sound, he turned and left, conveying Long Kun's order.

Following Long Kun's order, the empire's standing third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh armies and four-sided frontier armies began to operate at high speed, and a large amount of war materials were transported from the four sides of the empire to these armies. Among the resident, there is a sense that a large-scale expedition is about to take place.

After receiving Long Kun's strong reply, Zhao Hu's expression remained unchanged, but he relaxed his shoulders helplessly, and said softly to himself: "Since you want to play something big, I'll play with you!"

After muttering to himself, Zhao Hu gave the order to capture the [-]-mile land near Andy City, and the [-] merchant guards divided into ten groups and rushed towards the city near Andy City.

On the city wall of Tianhong City hundreds of miles away from Andy City, a big man wearing worn-out armor and holding a worn-out weapon looked down the city wall with a worried expression on his face, his eyes full of horror and fear.

Rainbow City is the temporary base of the Empire's Standing First Army and Second Army. With the destruction of the Empire's Standing First Army and Second Army, the defense force in Rainbow City is almost exhausted, leaving only a small number of old, weak, sick and disabled , unable to protect the safety of Rainbow City at all.

At the same time, the news that the army of Andy City defeated the permanent first and second legions of the Empire of Annihilation has already reached the ears of Rainbow City. Almost no one in Rainbow City thinks that Rainbow City can withstand the attack of the army of Andy City. Therefore, The people, dignitaries and businessmen of Rainbow City are unwilling to assist the defenders of Rainbow City, for fear that they will be liquidated by Andy City's army after the war.

At this time, an army of ten thousand people with excellent equipment and high morale, holding the banner of Andy City, rushed to the Tianhong City, and stopped a kilometer away from the city wall of Tianhong City. Thousands of defenders were terrified.

"Boss, there are less than [-] defenders in Tianhong City, and they are all old, weak, sick and disabled. Brothers can take them down with a single charge. We will make a great contribution this time!" Looking at the top of the Tianhong City wall in fear, A garrison with a frightened face, a big man wearing fine armor and holding a sharp weapon, said to the big man with a scar on his face with a smile on his face.

This man with the scar was Zhong Zida. After capturing the imperial marshal and more than ten imperial generals alive, he was appreciated by Zhao Hu and was promoted to the captain of the merchant regiment's guards, and became the highest officer of an army of ten thousand people. , making the other guards of the business group envious and jealous.

However, envy, jealousy and hatred are useless. Who let someone capture the marshal of the empire and more than ten generals of the empire alive, and made a great contribution!

"Tianhong City doesn't have much defensive power at all. Even if we charge to capture it, we don't have much credit. If we want to get more credit, we must take over Tianhong City in its entirety and contribute a piece to Andy City." The intact Rainbow City." Hearing what the big man said, Zhong Zida smiled slightly.

After finishing speaking, Zhong Zida cast his eyes on the defenders on the city wall of Tianhong City, and shouted loudly: "All the defenders above are listening, we are the tenth regiment of merchant guards under the command of Andy City, and we are dedicated to Andy City." The city lord ordered you to come to take over Rainbow City. You quickly open the city gate and let us in. We can guarantee the safety of your life and property, and let you become the security team under our Andy City, responsible for maintaining the security of Rainbow City. If you are not willing to accept the orders of the city lord of Andy City, persist in your obsession, and resist to the end, then, after we capture Rainbow City, we will kill all of you, and let you all lose your sons and grandsons!"

Hearing Zhong Zida's threatening words, the thousands of defenders on the Tianhong City wall tensed up, and involuntarily cast their gazes on a middle-aged man in fine armor, their eyes full of longing.

Feeling the fiery eyes of many soldiers, and seeing the eagerness in the eyes of these soldiers, the guarding officer's heart tightened, knowing that these soldiers had no fighting spirit, if he asked them to resist to the end, they would probably be given Take it and give it to the army of Andy City as a vote.

Thinking of this, the defending officer immediately gave up the idea of ​​resisting to the end, walked slowly to the edge of the Tianhong City wall, looked at Zhong Zida below, and said loudly: "If we let you in, if you guarantee the safety of our lives and property !"

As soon as the guarding officer's voice fell, Zhong Zida was overjoyed and shouted loudly: "I swear on the honor of Lord Andy City, if you open the city gate and surrender unconditionally, we in Andy City will absolutely guarantee you Your life and property are safe, and your relatives and property will not be moved!"

Seeing Zhong Zida swear by the honor of the Lord of Andy City, the defending officer felt relieved, knowing that the other party would never dare to use the reputation of the Lord of Andy City as a joke, so he nodded lightly and signaled his subordinates to open the city gate and let Zhong Zida The army under his command entered Rainbow City.

Soon, the gate of Rainbow City was opened by the defenders of Rainbow City. Zhong Zida's [-] troops entered Rainbow City, took over the defense of the city wall of Rainbow City, and stationed in important strongholds such as the City Lord's Mansion and the military warehouse of Rainbow City. The entire Rainbow City is in the palm of your hand.
