The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

She just thought the other party was bragging.

But the size of the army is at least half of what Devabarona boasted about.

If the number of those monstrous armored war elephants really exceeded ten thousand, they might be able to stop one or two of the Tang army.

The armored war elephants charged and trampled wantonly, while the monks on their backs continuously cast spells—

That scene is quite worth looking forward to.

However, at his kind invitation, Bebuyari, who temporarily set out as a wizard accompanying the army, soon fell into despair.

The level of this Indian army is totally unsatisfactory.

Do not misunderstand.

Beibu Yaliyi didn't think there was anything wrong with them burning, killing and looting along the way. After all, most armies were like that these days.

Not to mention this level of beating the grass, when Devapolona usually rode an elephant, he would just ride straight along the road, regardless of whether there were pedestrians in front.

Beibu Yali simply questioned whether this group of... things could be called an army.

Just looking at the physique column, looking at those pale and skinny, so-called able-bodied men who were forcibly brought in, can wipe out about 90% of the water.

Those people can only serve as cannon fodder or clean up the battlefield at best.

They don't even have the ability to maintain public order or suppress bandits.

The rest of them might have met the physical requirements, and some of the warriors did have armor, but as for military discipline...

You can't discuss with them something that doesn't exist.

We're heading to the front lines now!

These Indian warriors were still leaving and entering the camp at will, looting everywhere, and boasting every day about how many heads they had chopped off, how much they had stolen, and how many women they had played with.

As a result, Bebuyari was unable to estimate the size of the army dispatched by Devaparona.

But in any case, it is not at the same order of magnitude as the number she boasted about.

"Yes." Devapolona said confidently, waving to the armored warriors, which drew a thunderous cheer of "Long live".

“…” Biebuyari’s temple throbbed.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to confirm this."

"Do you know how many troops you have?"

Biebuya Rii said firmly.

"There's absolutely no way there's half a million. You can't fool me!!"

"Hahaha!!" After her lie was exposed, Devapolona's expression did not change at all. She laughed and started counting on her fingers.

"About—four hundred thousand?"

"Your Majesty, do you think I'm stupid?" At this time, even though the person opposite her was the king of Northern India, Biebuyari felt a surge of anger rising.

"That could be three hundred thousand?" Devapolona said uncertainly.

Seeing that Beibuya Liyi still looked unhappy, she immediately changed her words.

"Perhaps—two hundred thousand?"

"..."

"But it doesn't matter--" Devapolona said with a giggle.

“Anyway, it’s a lot!”

"Do not worry."

"They can definitely defeat the Tang army!"

Beibu Yari clenched her fists hidden in her sleeves.

Return two hundred thousand! ?

Are there five

It’s hard to say!

Suddenly, she felt an urge to cast a spell and kill Devaparana on the spot.

Never mind. Never mind.

do not be angry.

Not worth it——

Those Indian soldiers are not important, as long as the armored war elephants are real.

But then...

"Your Majesty, didn't you say you had fifty thousand armored war elephants?"

Don't let Yariyi despair.

"How can you get 50,000 with this amount?"

In the previous display, the number of armored war elephants displayed by Devavarana was only about a hundred.

Don't think that it was part of Devapolona's power and was just used to show off his muscles.

As a result, after waiting for a long time, no other armored war elephants came to join them.

Then a horrifying thought came to Bebuyari's mind.

Those armored war elephants, aren’t they all?

"Huh?" Devapolona just looked at her innocently.

"Don't you have fifty thousand?"

"Maybe I remembered it wrongly—hehe."

Devavarona laughed.

"But it doesn't matter. The troops from other places will rush here to join us anyway. I estimate there will be 50,000 of them by then."

At this moment, India is also completely scattered.

Compared to it, the Holy Roman Empire is considered centralized.

Therefore, if the Indian king Devavarana were to go on an expedition, there would definitely be many princes along the way who would bring their troops to join him.

Despair. Beibu Yaliyi was completely desperate.

We know we're going to lose this battle without even having to fight it.

The only difference is how you lose.

Biebuya Rie immediately started thinking about how to escape.

If I really follow Devavarona to the battle, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave my body intact in the end.

If you want to die, then go and die by yourself.

I haven't lived enough.

So, Bebuyari quickly made up an excuse and resigned from Devapolona.

"Your Majesty, I don't seem to be used to the climate here."

"I've been feeling a little dizzy."

"I heard that in the northern mountains, there is a wizard who is good at making medicine and is the best at treating this disease."

"So, please allow me to leave for a while, Your Majesty."

"As soon as I recover, I will return to help Your Majesty and do my best to contribute to the friendship between our two countries."

Under the influence of her witchcraft, Devapolona had no suspicion at all.

He smiled and let her go easily.

"Okay, okay, go and come back soon." Devapolona said happily.

Biebuya Rie breathed a sigh of relief and ran away.

Go and come back quickly?

Excuse me--

Once I leave, I won’t come back!

However, what Beibu Yaliyi didn't notice was that after she left, Devapolona's eyes immediately showed a hint of cunning.

"Hey, Zamp of the Tumo Empire, I have already informed your Holy Envoy."

"It was your Holy Emissary who did not object."

"It was your own Holy Envoy who felt we couldn't defeat the Tang army, so he left early. Therefore, the next attack will not be considered as a betrayal on my part."

Through a series of displays of weakness, Devaparona successfully made Bebuyari underestimate the Indian army, and then she fled.

Also set clear boundaries for your own offensive range.

This gave Devavarona the opportunity.

Next, even if she attacked those countries that were originally subordinate to the Tumu Empire and now surrendered to the Tang Empire, the Tumu Empire would have nothing to say.

Soon, more armored war elephants arrived at the military camp, and together with the previous ones, there were as many as five hundred of them!

"Hehe." Devapolona looked at the mighty armored war elephants triumphantly.

"Hey, such a powerful army! Who in this world can be a match for them?"

"My loyal warriors!"

"set off!"

Chapter 201 - Airstrike

"That's comfortable now."

When the last city in the Sistan region fell into Shu Yichao's hands, he finally nodded with satisfaction.

Now, from Sistan to Kandahar and then to Kabul, the flags of the Tang Dynasty are hoisted.

In this way, the Tang Dynasty's territories in Central Asia and West Asia were connected.

That map looks pleasing to the eye.

The Western Regions and Hezhong were both directly under the jurisdiction of the Tang army.

The Tang people had a ruling base in these places, and the local residents got along well with the Tang people, so they were able to quickly localize and become core.

Then important transportation nodes such as the Pamir Plateau and the Congling Mountains were also in the hands of the Tang army.

This is equivalent to strangling the throats of all vassal states in West Asia.

From now on, if any of the younger brothers disobey, Shu Yichao won’t have to take action. He can just rely on the ordinary Tang army and a group of Tang auxiliary troops to kill them immediately.

Further out, there are vassal states such as the Ans Governorate and the Tiaozhi Governorate.

These places are too far away for the Tang people, and countries like Ans have brilliant cultures themselves.

It was impossible to turn them into a native land in the short term, so Shu Yichao released them as vassal states and took his time to develop them.

Again.

They could also serve as a strategic buffer for the Tang army.

It is responsible for causing trouble for other countries and also acting as a human shield.

From now on, whether the Tang army attacks or there are enemies coming from the west.

They were the ones who were destroyed, while the Anxi Protectorate's homeland remained safe.

When dividing these areas, Shu Yichao didn't have to think too much, it was a completely subconscious instinctive reaction -

I have played similar games countless times and I know what to do with my eyes closed.

Next, it’s time to have fun catching lions.

Although it is unclear how many lions there are in this area, Shu Yichao now has nearly 500 warrior figurines.
