Chapter 448 - The War Has Begun
Chapter 448: The War Has Begun
“Boom boom boom…”
A series of uniform footsteps suddenly sounded from the barracks in the various cities. Then, groups of soldiers surged out and gathered in rows at an unexpected speed. Then, they rushed out of the barracks like mad dragons, divided into several streams, and headed for the various city walls.
Depending on the city’s level and population, each city would have at least 50,000 city guards, and some of the larger cities could have 70,000 to 80,000, or even 100,000.
The main reason was that the soldiers in the Kingdom of Dawn were treated very well. It was easier for them to step into the path of transcendence and obtain resources. Many young civilians tried their best to join the army to become transcendent and change their fate.
Most of these people had stayed in foreign countries before, so they knew what kind of life they had to live under the control of the foreign races. They hated the foreign races and knew their powerlessness previously. As long as they had the chance, they wouldn’t give it up.
Although they would face all sorts of restrictions if they joined the army and they might even have to fight against foreign races, this was their wish.
To be able to fight against the foreign races, win and kill them was their greatest wish.
Therefore, although the city guard army had not been established for a long time, the soldiers who joined the army were all very hardworking. Their inner strength was extremely terrifying. Because of this, they consumed a lot of resources and the effect was naturally very obvious.
In less than a month, these soldiers had all reached the transcendent threshold and awakened their system panel.
Although the functions of the system panel could not be compared to that of a country lord or a lord, it was still a sign of officially stepping into the transcendent realm.
With the system panel, the soldiers’ training became more intense, and their improvement became more direct. The two complemented each other, causing the soldiers to rarely go out other than cultivating. They were afraid that if they slacked, others would catch up to them and their resources would be snatched away.
Although the Kingdom of Dawn said that it had three million soldiers, its actual number was far greater than this figure.
These three million referred to the soldiers who had already become transcendents when the numbers were first calculated. Those who had yet to become transcendents were not included.
However, this did not mean that they had stopped moving forward. In less than a month, the number of three million had multiplied several times.
In the City of Dawn, Li Xiang had gathered Li Jing, Zhao Yun, Lys, Zhao Sheng, and the other generals. At the same time, the other heroes had also gathered.
“The enemies are approaching and may attack at any time. However, our territory is vast. How do you plan to defend in the four directions?”
As the God of War, Li Jing was naturally the commander of these generals. Even Lys, the Demon Warlord, had been convinced by Li Jing’s abilities and admitted defeat.
Therefore, Li Jing stepped forward and said, “Your Majesty, the Kingdom of Dawn is vast. If we defend everywhere, there will still be loopholes. I suggest that we take the initiative to attack and gather our superior forces to destroy one side first to deter the enemy. At the same time, we can mobilize the enemy, set traps, or attack with surprise troops. It’s better than defending everywhere, where there are loopholes and weaknesses!”
It wasn’t just Li Xiang, everyone else also expressed their approval and agreement after hearing this.
The Kingdom of Dawn covered tens of millions of square kilometers. The borders were extremely long, and its terrain was extremely complex. Anyone with a normal IQ would know that it was impossible to defend every place.
The Starlight Canopy was a Holy Light-grade treasure, and it wasn’t easy to break through. However, the Foreign Race Army was by no means ordinary. Even if they didn’t have a Holy Light-grade treasure, they could launch a Holy Light-level attack.
With such a vast area, the Kingdom of Dawn’s military strength would probably be stretched thin.
Therefore, Li Jing’s suggestion was the wisest choice.
Li Xiang had thought of this before, but he was not good at commanding troops in battle. What he was best at was leading the troops to charge and kill.
Now that he had a commander talent like Li Jing, he naturally didn’t need to worry too much. Li Jing’s plan completely matched his expectations. Thus he said, “Since that’s the case, Li Jing will be fully in charge of this battle. I’ll stay in the palace and wait for good news!”
“Yes!”
After receiving the order, Li Jing immediately began to execute his authority.
“Zhao Yun, take a hundred thousand human soldiers and board the Void Warship.”
“Yes!”
After the Void Warship Blueprint was completed, the Kingdom of Dawn dismantled the Floating Warships and rebuilt them into stronger Void Warships.
Although there were some losses in this, more precious materials were used to make the warships more powerful, faster, and more functional. It could also carry more people and troops.
“Warlord Lys, lead 50,000 Dread Fiend Cavalry and 50,000 Rapid Blade Demons and board the warship. Be prepared to attack at any time.”
“As for the other battle generals, come with me and face the enemy head-on!”
Everyone, including Alice, accepted the order.
Li Xiang saw that Li Jing had done the arrangement, thus he said, “Since the battle plan has been set, let’s execute it immediately!”
Li Xiang didn’t know which direction Li Jing would attack from. After all, the situation on the battlefield was ever-changing. It was very likely that at this moment the fighter would point to the east, and the next moment it would point to the west. Therefore, he couldn’t plan.
The Kingdom of Dawn had its advantages and disadvantages. And the latter was, the initiative of the war wasn’t in their hands.
The fact that Li Jing could think of taking the initiative to attack meant that he was fighting for the initiative in the war.
The bell resounded in every city in the Kingdom of Dawn. The reactions of the military camps were exemplary. They were able to pinpoint the positions of all the soldiers and horses in the shortest time.
“The war has begun!”
The moment the bell rang, all the people of the Kingdom of Dawn, including the outsiders, knew that the war was about to begin.
They could feel that the entire kingdom was filled with a thick murderous aura.
“They’re finally going to fight. Is the Foreign Race Army coming? I’ve always wanted to see how powerful these foreign races are, and if they’re invulnerable!”
“Let’s go and take a look. If the situation is urgent, we have weapons too. Maybe we can help!”
“How can you leave me out when killing the foreign races!”
Countless citizens rushed out of their homes with a face full of passion, wanting to join the army in the battle.
If it weren’t for the city guard generals of the various cities stopping them, there wouldn’t even be enough space for people to stand on the city walls.
At this time, a large number of war equipment had been prepared on the city wall. Swords were unsheathed, and bows were drawn.
Facing the foreign race, all the soldiers had stern expressions and their eyes were full of fighting spirit.
It was fine for the cities in the hinterlands of the kingdom. Although they were prepared for war, they were not in any danger yet.
However, in almost all the cities near the border, foreign figures could be found outside the cities.
Especially around the four main cities.
