After Imperial City fell, all resistance had been completely slaughtered. Of the seven-eight million people, one fourth had been killed in battle and the rest had either surrendered or pledged their loyalty. The War Hounds had plundered for several days. The wealth and resources collected over several hundred years by the Imperial City families had all been become the loot of the Fang King.

Those fierce demon wolf cavalry captured several dozen cities in the Imperial Region and Cang State. There were now over forty million Southern Summer citizens that were now dependent on the War Hounds!

Wang Tianlong was full of spirit!

Because after the Fang King seized the Imperial Region, Wang Tianlong was titled the new king. He used Wang Tianlong’s human identity to rule the Southern Summer citizens, this was much easier than the Fang King personally ruling them. After all, these humans had lived on this land for a long time and had a deep hatred towards Spirit Beasts, so it would not be good to directly rule them.

What was a vassal king?

It was even less than a marquis!

Wang Tianlong had obtained everything he wanted, now he just wanted to obtain the remaining land. Other than that, there was another fish bone in Wang Tianlong’s throat, Chu Tian!

He did not know why, but as long as Chu Tian did not die, he could not rest peacefully!

When the scouts brought back the news, Chu Tian had indeed escaped to Central State and had even put Dongfang Gan onto the throne, preparing to fight against their War Hounds Kingdom. Wang Tianlong angrily smashed a cup and he immediately found the newly titled ruler Nangong Ling. The two of them quickly rushed to the royal palace and prepared to report it to the Fang King.

The Fang King had received an envoy from the Eagle Burial Kingdom who was wearing a black robe, only revealing a pair of sharp eyes. Even with the venerated Fang King’s status, he had to be respectful to this person.

The Eagle Burial Envoy praised the Fang King several times, “Your highness has taken over the War Hounds and broken through Southern Summer this quickly, the king is full of praise for you and will award you after the war. I hope your highness will keep expanding south and allow the Eagle Burial Warring Kingdom’s southern border reach the Forest of Chaos. With a large and small kingdom conquered, the Eagle Burial Kingdom’s strength will increase another step. Perhaps in another hundred years, the king will be able to declare himself an emperor!”

The Fang King did not care about these problems and just asked a single question, “Have the Eagle Burial reinforcements arrived yet?”

“Your highness has requested reinforcements of one hundred thousand airborne troops, but the Eagle Burial Kingdom is fighting in all four directions and each battle has been shocking. The Southern Summer Imperial City has already been broken through and all that is left is a motley crew to resist, in face of these poor defenses, is there a need for a hundred thousand in reinforcements? The vulture cavalry are not the Eagle Burial Kingdom’s trump card, but they still are a precious airborne unit. At most there will only be twenty thousand, this is already the limit. I ask your highness not to make things difficult!”

The Fang King was a bit unhappy, “Although the Southern Summer Country cannot take another blow, there is a large difference between the north and south terrains. My Demon Wolf Cavalries are unable to attack over the thousands of miles of mountains, it is impossible to end this war quickly without a large amount of airborne units!”

“Your highness is too cautious!” The Eagle Burial Envoy thought differently, “Even if it isn’t suitable for the Demon Wolf Cavalry to fight, there are still the several hundred thousand warriors from the War Hound Plains as well as ten thousand vulture cavalry. Adding in another twenty thousand vulture cavalry, for a few trivial Southern Summer cities, they can be broken through without any tactics!”

The Fang King gave a snort.

“Your highness wants to end this battle quickly, but you need to consider the situation of the country. A Southern Summer that can’t stand again, there is no need to invest that much military strength from the Eagle Burial Warring Kingdom!” The Eagle Burial Envoy said this before adding in, “You don’t need to act this quickly, the king has given you three months time. No matter how stubborn the humans are, they will surely fall in three months time.”

The Eagle Burial Envoy left after matters were taken care of. His sharp eyes swept over Wang Tianlong and Nangong Ling as he left, his eyes were filled with taunting and disdain. Were these lowly humans worthy of being enemies with the Eagle Burial Kingdom?

That highness is truly too insensitive.

One hundred thousand vulture cavalry? Isn’t this just causing trouble!

Even against a large kingdom, it was rare to move one hundred thousand airborne soldiers. Against a small kingdom and one that was about to die, he actually asked for one hundred thousand? If not for winning over the War Hounds and consecutively winning two battles, the king would not give him any face and even twenty thousand shouldn’t be thought of!

The Fang King softly asked, “Have you investigated that matter clearly?”

Nangong Ling cupped his hands and said, “The strange weapons used by the Southern Summer defenders have been investigated, they were specially made in a secret factory near Imperial City.”

The Fang King’s eyes lit up, “It really is a produced weapon! This weak little kingdom could actually create such a powerful new weapon. Did you find the weapon’s blueprints or the production personnel? Also, I heard that the Southern Summer people have invented a thing that could allow one to communicate over a thousand miles, as well as broadcasting sound and images. Did you find this technology yet!”

“I ask for the Fang King’s forgiveness!” Nangong Ling said in a terrified manner, “These technology have not existed for long and they are all controlled by Miracle Commerce. The related equipment in the city have been destroyed and the weapon factory has been damaged, we can’t find anything valuable currently.”

“Waste!”

The Fang King slapped Nangong Ling into the wall. Nangong Ling did not dare resist, he could only kowtow as he accepted his punishment.

“Fang King, please calm down!” Wang Tianlong respectfully bowed down, “I have obtained confirmed news. Chu Tian’s group has escaped south and are currently in Central State. As long as we can grab him, everything will be in our hands!”

During the Imperial City battle, the powerful Source Energy Submachine Guns and the shocking Source Energy Bombs had left a deep impression on the Fang King. At first the Fang King thought it was a rare treasure, but who would have thought that after investigating this, they would actually be manufactured weapons!

This filled the Fang King with excitement!

If they could obtain this equipment, the Eagle Burial Kingdom’s strength would increase several times and it would be easy for them to become an empire!

“Through plundering trade and military vessels, we have now prepared enough ships.” Wang Tianlong kneeled on one knee, “Please give the order. As long as Central State falls, the final bit of resistance from the Southern Summer Country will crumble. At that time, two hundred million Southern Summer citizens will all become the War Hounds Kingdom’s subject citizens and will forever produce items for the Fang King!”

The Fang King was a bit hesitant.

His position today did not just come from his cultivation. The Fang King was not only strong, he was also a clear headed commander. He did not become confused by two victories and calmly analyzed the situation.

There was no doubt that the remaining Southern Summer army could not even block the War Hounds, not to mention the Eagle Burial platoons. Now he was just facing two variables.

One was the problem of terrain.

The other was the problem of surprise.

The War Hounds had to proceed across the Four States Lake to proceed south, but the War Hounds were not suited for water battles. Moreover, the ships were stolen from trade routes or were old warships from the warehouses, so they could not compare to the Southern Summer’s real warships. If they fought on the Four States Lake, the War Hounds would not get off easy.

Moreover, what if the Southern Summer Country prepared a large amount of those powerful weapons? Once those weapons were used in an aquatic battle, it would have a powerful killing effect. This could not be defended against!

Wang Tianlong was filled with doubt, “Whether it is quantity or strength, our army had an overwhelming superiority. What is the Fang King worried about?”

“Alright!” The Fang King made his decision, “Send down my orders. The Demon Wolf Cavalry will remain while the rest should all prepare to head south!”

“Understood!” Wang Tianlong revealed a look of joy, but he immediately asked, “What is the battle strategy?”

The Fang King had already thought of a tactic, “You will lead six hundred thousand War Hounds by boat to head south. The fleet cannot be centered and each fleet will have one hundred thousand soldiers. There will be five fleets who will all take different routes, they will enter Central State from different positions.”

“This.....”

“The Southern Summer army’s strength cannot compare to ours, they can only win against us on the water, but they aren’t on the same scale as us. If we scatter and make them separate, at most they can attack one or two sides, the majority of the fleet will pass through smoothly.”

Wang Tianlong’s eyes lit up.

“The army dividing into divisions to attack is just one strategy, it’s a diversion for the surprise attack.” The Fang King continued to say, “I will lead the thirty thousand vulture soldiers and lead various chiefs through Cang State. We will pass through the mountain ridge to the north of Central State and launch a surprise airborne attack on Central State City!”

A surprise attack and attacking from both sides.

How could Central State City block this?

The Southern Summer had lost two battles, but it wasn’t strange at all. The Fang King was an experienced and intelligent commander, his strategies were always impeccable!

At least from Wang Tianlong’s point of view, Central State would surely die in this war!

The Central State’s garrison could be completely ignored. The Southern Summer army still had two-three hundred thousand cavalry, but this strength was far below that of the War Hounds, so they could not win a straight fight. As long as the War Hounds army set out, Central State would surely break under an attack!

The War Hounds would divide into five groups and attack. Even if Central State tries to block them on the water and even with the War Hounds not being suited for aquatic battles and their bad ships, at most only one or two divisions could be blocked. The other armies would be enough to surround Central State.

This point was already hard to defend against!

Not to mention the Fang King’s plan including a sneak attack. He would personally lead his troops and attack from the north, passing over the mountains to attack Central State.

No matter how much a military god the Calm Martial Ruler was, to defend against the six hundred thousand War Hound soldiers, he had to send out all his troops. But once he did, Central State City would be empty and under the sneak attack of the thirty thousand airborne soldiers, Central State City would surely fall.

If Central State City fell, it didn’t matter how beautiful the fight on the Four States Lake would be. Central State would surely fall after this!

The Fang King was worthy of being a king of the Eagle Burial Kingdom!

Thinking of such a thorough and ruthless strategy in such a short amount of time!

Wang Tianlong and Nangong Ling were filled with confidence. Although Dongfang Gan’s military talent did not lose to the Fang King’s, in a situation where the two commanders had a same level of skill, one’s strength would be the deciding factor!

The Fang King watched these two leave.

He did not know why he kept feeling this faint premonition that this fight would not be that easy!
