Chapter 179: Usurping the throne and forcing an attack, the strategic rhythm is in chaos



On the mountain behind the Sea Beast King City, the troops of the Yan Kingdom's Second Front Army are gathering.

"General, the Third Regiment is in place, and the entire Second Front Army has been fully assembled here."

In a dilapidated house in a village, Li Fei was receiving reports from the people below.

"Well, we have achieved the effect of a surprise attack at the moment. If we can take them all down in one battle, the southeast will be much easier."

After a month, the previously scattered army was finally assembled. The cavalry's charge a few months ago did not bring any benefits to the capital. The garrison in the entire Sea Beast King City was not small. If a forced attack was launched, although there was a chance of victory, it would be easy to be consumed.

Therefore, after discussions between the leaders and staff of the two fronts, the entire operation was streamlined, shifting from the original direct attack to a two-pronged approach. One group of cavalry moved gradually from the southern region to the coastal areas near the capital, while the other group of firearms troops gathered near the capital along multiple routes along the mountain roads.

At this time, the feint to the east and attack in the west was basically completed, and the entire army group approached the enemy's capital quietly.

"Alas! Fortunately, the generals have withdrawn all the troops from the central mountainous area, otherwise it would not be so easy for us."

Li Fei couldn't help but sigh. It was really a huge workload to transfer tens of thousands of troops quietly to the vicinity of the local capital in just a few months. Even if the other party had some strong forces in the central core area, this transfer would not be easy.

"General, General Li Shang said that the army is currently operating in the south. It will take at least a week to advance north. Should we wait a little longer?"

Captain Wang Huo asked from below.

This time he is mainly responsible for war liaison and staff. Under the current circumstances, it is better to be cautious, wait for the cavalry to come, and then launch a flank attack.

"That's right, we don't need to be too anxious. The front line can still hold out at this moment, and we can make adequate preparations."

Li Fei agreed.

The current situation is still under control. The successful transfer of the Second Front Army of Yan State is a heavy blow that needs to be launched at a critical moment.

“You actually…you…”

There was a noisy sound outside the factory.

"what happens?"

Li Fei looked outside the door, and at this moment a guard came over to report the situation.

"General, the people of this village tried to escape and inform the capital, but we caught them."

After the guard finished speaking briefly, he followed Li Fei who went to investigate the situation and explained the details.

"General, these two guys named Shouhou and Ergou escaped from the village in the middle of the night because we killed their master. They wanted to go and tell on us. After our people caught them, they started a fight in front of the door."

After listening to this, Li Fei remained silent. He walked to the door and saw the two people who were arguing.

Both of them were pale and thin, with dark skin, and were shirtless. There were several red marks on their backs, obviously they often did heavy physical work.

At this time, a slightly sturdy young man hurried forward and grabbed Li Fei's green military pants. He didn't care about the smooth and soft touch that suddenly came over him, and just cried.

"What's wrong with you? We just killed a few sea beasts. Is it necessary to be so excited?"

Li Fei found it difficult to understand their logic, and he ignored the fact that these people were grabbing his trouser legs. He just walked forward and pulled Ergou up.

"How dare you kill sea beasts? Do you know how the last ordinary human who dared to kill a sea beast died? Everyone in the village was killed. You can die, but you can't harm the people in our village! I just want our villagers to live, and what about you? You kill them and put us to death!"

Ergou cried so loudly that it was hard to tell that he was the strong man working at the dock. The skinny monkey next to him also started crying. They did hate each other, but all of this was rooted in fear.

"Don't cry, we are also ordinary human soldiers. We have weapons in our hands and we will protect you!"

Seeing this scene, even the battle-hardened Li Fei couldn't help but be moved. He expressed his attitude and opinions in that way, and all this made him very conflicted.

“Wuwuwuwu…”

The people in the nearby village were also infected and were crying along with the two of them. The fear of death hung over everyone's heart. Even though it was already difficult for them to live, they still had an instinctive desire to survive, and this desire drove them to do anything.

Even though they were severely oppressed, they really had no ability to resist.

In the previous migration, in order not to alert the enemy, the soldiers of Yan State flew under the banners of ordinary human armies when passing through various villages in the mountains. They did not kill any sea beasts or disturb the people along the way. In such a situation, the soldiers of Yan State, including Li Guang, did not have a good solution.

They were just detained first to prevent anyone from escaping and informing on others.

“This is really abominable…”

Li Fei also had a bad temper. He pounded the table in front of him with his hands, and there was a rage in his heart that he couldn't suppress.

If this village belonged to the Yan people, they would have been singing and dancing to welcome the royal army, and there wouldn't be so many things going on.

"General, don't be angry. Once we capture the capital, we'll teach you a lesson."

A general nearby advised that there were not many good ways to change the people's mindset in a short period of time, and they could only wait until they dealt with these sea beasts before dealing with them properly.

······

It was already night. In the capital of the Sea Beast Kingdom, a raging fire was burning. All the soldiers of the guard camp rushed towards the palace.

If you look closely, you will see that the leader is none other than the Sea Beast Prince.

The entire Sea Beast Kingdom was worried about the war in the south at this time, and the prince's proposal had a chance to be implemented by taking advantage of this opportunity.

In the burning palace, the king sat blankly on the throne, looking at his most trusted son. He personally handed over the power of guarding the palace to him. This was his best heir.

"Are you going to kill me?"

The Sea Beast King was in his prime, and his strength had reached a level 6 spiritual power unit, which was the same level as his genius son. With the guards behind him, it was easy to kill him.

"Father, I simply believe there's something wrong with your strategy. Therefore, I must do this in order to consolidate the future of the Sea Beast Kingdom."

The prince did not give a clear answer. He did not want to and did not dare to. The entire Sea Beast Kingdom had been passed down for thousands of years. There were many cases of usurpation of the throne, but most of them were suppressed by the Sea Beast King under the royal city. A king who did not control the Sea Beast King was not a king. The prince was very smart and he understood this.
