Star Iron, conquer the world from Omphalos

Page 145

But this is an envoy.

How many envoys were destroyed?

Those great lords of extinction killed and burned people everywhere, and they destroyed all living things equally. This was enough to give all major forces a headache.

Now, destruction is combined with Shurima, which is really on point. In the future, the expansion of Shurima can even be understood as an act of implementing the will of destruction.

See, isn't this normal?

However, some people think that the Shurima Empire does not believe in destruction, so will the appearance of the Messenger of Destruction cause internal conflicts?

These people did not know the relationship between Kane and Ash, but no matter what, a being at the level of a commander should not be able to obey orders from others obediently.

Star-breaking King Bug?

That guy is an exception.

For a time, forces like the Company were looking forward to it, waiting for the Shurima Civil War to break out, and for Kane of Destruction to lead his army to conquer Yarilo VI and engage in a life-and-death battle with Emperor Ash.

In the next few days, the Shurima Empire entered a rare period of peace.

But this period lasted less than a week, and then the Xianzhou Alliance fleet began to attack Shurima again.

However, this time they did not engage in a large-scale war. Instead, they dispersed the fleet into countless forces and surrounded the Griffith galaxy, mainly using attack and harassment tactics to destroy the Shurima's manpower while restricting the empire's desire to expand outward.

It has to be said that this move actually gave Ash a headache.

He is not afraid of any head-on attack. The worst that can happen is that all his troops are defeated. He still has a large number of top fighters, and no one will have an easy time then.

But now, if the Xianzhou Alliance only carries out a military blockade, the current size of Shurima's army is not enough to disperse and destroy the other side.

We can't just ignore it. The empire must develop and the great expedition plan must continue. It is impossible to achieve this with the fairy boat fleet here.

The only advantage is that there is no need to be too anxious since it is not a large-scale war, which at least gives Shurima enough time to develop.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ash improved the empire's military organization.

He separated the Atiyah Regiment from the Ascended Army and integrated it into the ranks of the Custodes.

These Atiya warriors have proved their loyalty with their actual actions. From now on, all Atiya warriors, including Ryan, will serve as a separate imperial guard team that obeys Ash's dispatch.

As for the Ascended Regiments, he planned to use the next twenty genobodies to fill them and form the twenty most powerful Ascended Regiments in the Empire.

Cocolia no longer commanded the Ascended Legion. He was assigned by Ash to the formation of the Astra Militarum, responsible for commanding all mortal armies of the Shurima Empire, including the interstellar battleships.

This is not an easy task. The establishment of the Astra Militarum is much more complicated than that of the Ascension Corps. After all, the latter have the innate talents of their genes, which determine from birth that they must play a role in the field they are good at.

The Astra Militarum is composed of mortals, a large group that Ash estimates will reach tens of billions within a hundred years. Even after the Griffith Galaxy is developed in the Empire's territory, this number will continue to extend towards "infinity."

The establishment of a mortal army is the most difficult. The Astra Militarum is just a general term, representing the mortal army of the Empire, but it may not be called this name in a certain world, but it is still under the jurisdiction of the Empire.

In addition, Ash also needs to establish the Solar Guard, which is a mortal army that only governs the world in the core of the Shurima Empire. It exists independently of the Astra Militarum, and their armed configuration is generally superior to that of the Astra Militarum.

The establishment of these two armies did not happen overnight. Although his children were more talented than Cocolia, the latter was transformed from a mortal. She had experienced the life of mortals struggling in desperate situations and knew better how to make a mortal army strong.

Cocolia had no objection to Ash's decision.

For her, whether she was commanding powerful ascended warriors or commanding ordinary mortal guards, she was fighting for the empire.

But first, Ash had to give her the money to do this big thing.

It's not just a funding issue. The blockade of the Xianzhou fleet will greatly restrict the expansion of the empire's territory and trade channels. The Xianzhou fleet intends to use its size to drag Shurima to death. After all, the empire cannot continue to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to fight a protracted war.

As long as Shurima expands outward, they will attack, and destroy the conquered world as soon as the main force leaves. How to play?

Without money and territory, the army cannot expand.

Ash even wanted to call back the Zerg that was still fighting in the Jacob galaxy, but after thinking about it, he felt it was too risky. The breeding Zerg were becoming more and more crazy, and the entire galaxy had become a Zerg fighting ground. Other creatures didn't dare to enter at all.

If the Star Crusher King Bugs were called over, the breeding swarms of bugs would immediately smell the scent and come over, turning Griffith upside down.

Thinking of this, Ash became even more troubled. The Star Crusher King Worm had the potential to be promoted to the Insect King, which might not be a good thing. After all, how could a Star God listen to him? Unless he also reached the level of a Star God.

Because of this possibility, the continuous attacks of the breeding insect swarm almost made him lose the fighting power of the insect swarm, and if he really wanted to fight to a conclusion, Ruan Mei estimated that it would take at least the Amber Age.

After all, the transition of a star god has never been an easy task.

Just when Ash was worrying about it, there was finally news about the immortal boat Yaoqing who had disappeared since the beginning of the melee.

On the Black Tower Queen.

In the meeting room specially prepared by Ash, Jiao Qiu's projection appeared in front of him, and following him came another person - Fei Xiao.

"General Feixiao, we meet again." Ash said with a smile.

"Your Excellency Ash... now I should call you Emperor." Fei Xiao sighed softly, "Shurima and Xianzhou have finally come to this."

"The galaxy is a chaotic mess, with countless wars taking place every day. However, the Immortal Ship Alliance is powerful enough to view those wars from the perspective of a ruler, deciding their fate. So, if a war one day spreads to the Immortal Ship, causing severe damage to it, what's so strange about that?"

"You're right, there are always unexpected things in war, and it won't be as expected." Feixiao didn't dwell on this, she just felt a little emotional. The speed of Shurima's development exceeded everyone's expectations, and the same was true for the outcome of this war.

There are victories and defeats in war. The Xianzhou Alliance has indeed been accustomed to victory for too long, so that when the real threat came, everyone was even a little caught off guard.

"Emperor." Jiao Qiu said, "As agreed before, please help treat the general."

"Of course, I always keep my word." Ash said with a smile, "As long as General Feixiao comes, the treatment can begin at any time."

"Compared to this...Sister Yukong, the one from Luofu Tianbo Division. You rescued Tingyun back then, so you should know her situation." Feixiao suddenly asked.

"know."

"Then she..."

"She and the vulpera from Rofu are now in Shurima."

Feixiao's eyes lit up: "Really?"

She thought that Yukong and others had exploded along with Luofu.

Although this was inevitable in war, she would still be sad if this was the case.

"If you don't believe me, I can call her over." Yaxiu spread his hands. "It was Tingyun who asked me to do this. I'm a trustworthy person."

"Is Tingyun working for Shurima? I heard she went to Pinoconi and is contacting the family on behalf of Shurima."

"Correct."

"Why do you trust her so much?" Fei Xiao was puzzled. "Tingyun used to be a member of the Immortal Boat Alliance. You put her in charge of the entire empire's trade. Aren't you afraid of something going wrong?"

"I believe in loyalty. If anyone dares to betray, the Empire will punish him accordingly. But before that, groundless suspicion is not my style."

"that's it?"

Feixiao even thought that Yaxiu had used some method to control Tingyun before, but it was obviously not the case.

"It's incredible." She shook her head. "Emperor, can you let me meet Sister Yukong?"

"Just a moment."

Ash immediately notified Bronya and asked her to connect Yukong to a communication device.

He left the meeting room after giving the time to the two sisters. About half an hour later, their conversation ended.

"It seems like we had a good chat."

In the room, Ash could clearly see from the expression on Feixiao's face that he was much more relaxed.

In fact, Yukong has been in contact with Tingyun these days. Feixiao learned everything from her. The situation of the fox people in Shurima is indeed much better than expected.

"Emperor." Fei Xiao seemed to have made a decision. "If I bring Yao Qing into the Griffith Galaxy and form an alliance with the Empire, will you help us resist the attack from the Immortal Boat?"

Ash smiled.

Isn't this the moment he has been waiting for?

"Of course, Shurima welcomes all reliable allies."

...

Yao Qing has nowhere to go. They can't hide their tracks forever and have to interact with the outside world.

The Xianzhou Alliance is watching everywhere, so instead of hiding with his people for the rest of his life, it would be better to join Shurima.

At least in Feixiao's opinion, the Fox People have done enough for the Xianzhou Alliance, and this so-called "betrayal" is essentially caused by the selfishness of the Chiming People and the favoritism of the Alliance.

Since there was no turning back, Feixiao was not a hesitant person. After talking with Yukong, she made a decision.

This was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for Ash. With the joining of the Qingqiu Army, their apparent strength would be greatly improved.

By the way, you can also disgust the Xianzhou Alliance.

Five days later, Yao Qing entered the Griffith galaxy through a jump.

The appearance of this huge fairy ship immediately attracted a large number of alliance fleets. At first, these people tried to contact Yao Qing to confirm the situation, but when they saw Yao Qing rushing into the arms of Shurima without looking back, they realized that something was wrong and immediately began to chase him.

But in the end, they were all destroyed by the Black Tower Queen commanded by Ash.

After welcoming the Yaoqing fleet, Yaxiu tried to contact Tingyun to explain the matter and asked about the situation on Pinocchio's side.

As a result, the message fell on deaf ears, and the same was true for Wan Di and his protectors. Ash immediately thought of the "Taiyi Dream" and thought that the Lord of God Day should have come by this time.

By the time the Nameless Guests kill the God Lord, the Oak Family will be basically finished, and the situation in Pinocchio will have changed dramatically.

Originally, the matter over there was handled by Diamond's strategic investment department. Ash was busy dealing with the Xianzhou Alliance before and had no time to interfere in the company's affairs. In addition, after Schneider's death, the conflict between him and the company came to an end.

But in the subsequent conflict with the Xianzhou Alliance, the company jumped around again. Although it did not cause any substantial losses, Yaxiu is not the kind of person who would not fight back after being beaten.

When Taiyi's dream ended and the family power fell into a trough, it was the right time for Shurima to enter.

And they also have "legitimate reasons". After all, on the surface, the Empire and the Clover Family have already established a cooperative relationship.

So, in order to help the allies overcome difficulties, it makes sense for him to just bring an envoy and dozens of warships to help.

"Then take Kane with you. What will of destruction? How can it compare to the greatness of fatherly love?"

Thinking of this, Ash contacted Ruan Mei and asked her to send Kane, who was undergoing mental strengthening, over.

However, Ruan Mei finally sent two people, one was Kane and the other was a burly man.

"This kid's name is 'Dorn'. He's good at defensive military concepts and laying out fortifications. Aren't you going to build an imperial army and defense system? It's just right, he should be able to help." Ruan Mei said.

Desert Emperor in Star Iron: Chapter 91 Huangquan: The Emperor, I know, is called Rupert

Among all the children, Dorn was the most calm type, and the tactical concepts he studied were mainly defensive.

He always felt that the Empire was facing too many enemies at this stage, and the Imperial warriors led by the Emperor were enough to tear the opponents apart, and there was no need for another person like him to charge into battle on the front line.

Compared to this, establishing a stable and solid defense mechanism is the basic guarantee that a major force should have.

It just so happened that Ash had this idea, so Ruan Mei directly sent Dorn over as well.

However, the moment he saw Dorne, he felt something strange in his heart. He was good at guarding and had a strong sense of defense. Doesn't this just fit the character of a certain guy who was fighting against the dust?

"Are you sure he's okay?"

Ash looked through the information about Dawn.

"What do you mean?" Ruan Mei was puzzled.

"I mean...wait a minute."

Ash personally held the ascension ceremony for Dorn.

then.

Here comes Klipper.

When the will of protection came, Ash was actually very calm.

Here they come, as expected, these immoral guys have come to snatch his son away.

"Tmd." Ash cursed inwardly while remaining calm.

"Is Cun Hu here?" Ruan Mei was not at the scene, but she could roughly guess the emotion that Ya Xiu wanted to express from his tone.

"Correct."
