Chapter 212 Holy War



Starting in some unknown region, Chaos Territory was completely drawn into war.

As if overnight, everything changed, and the four major powers, including Lily Territory, were attacked simultaneously.

If we hadn't been prepared, we might have lost several cities to the central army in an instant, but even so, three cities were breached overnight.

When the news reached them, the army broke camp, and Ariel rode off on her silver dragon. Two of the three Glory Peak members also went to the front lines, leaving only the burly old man to handle matters at the rear.

For several days in a row, the battle reports from the front lines were not very positive.

The kingdom in the center of the continent is too powerful. Even with the four major powers joining forces to fight against it, they can only barely maintain their momentum for the time being.

The burly old man was busy handling matters at home, while Su Qing was watching the news coming back from the front lines.

With a look of great interest on her face, Ariel, after arriving at the front line, joined forces with the other three major forces to block the central army's attack.

The war has reached a stalemate.

But this is not good news, because the allied forces of the four kingdoms have clearly not achieved their goal, and they are already on full defensive.

Among them, the cannons that Su Qing sold to them played a very important role.

The continuous artillery fire halted a large portion of the central army's advance during the defensive battle. Ariel placed another order with Su Qing, this time for tens of thousands of units.

Su Qing was overjoyed and immediately arranged for people to make preparations. You see, he had anticipated this situation last time and prepared an extra 5,000 units, but he didn't expect it wouldn't be enough.

However, this batch can be transported to the front line first, and there are also artillery shells. These things are urgently needed at the front line, and it is a large order. However, Su Qing's reserves are sufficient for the time being.

Just then, Su Qing also planned to go to the front line to see the situation of the war, so he swallowed the goods and followed a group of reinforcements transporting supplies to the front line.

After traveling for seven or eight days, they gradually approached the front line of the battle.

Although it was a desolate area behind the front-line garrison, it was not safe. Small groups of troops who had strayed during the battle might take the opportunity to come here and plunder, disrupting the rear.

These armies are often formidable in individual combat.

Smaller armies, especially those transporting provisions, might be unable to defeat them and face danger.

Therefore, the grain transport unit that Su Qing was with was very cautious and sent out many scouts to guard the surrounding area.

Su Qing really wanted to tell them that it didn't need to go through all that trouble; with the Thousand-Mile Eye activated, their field of vision could easily cover an area of ​​20,000 li.

Standing here now, Su Qing can see how fierce the fighting is on the front lines. Besides, he can also eat the grain and fodder.

Su Qing had suggested this to the captain of the grain transport unit.

The grain transport team leader flatly rejected the proposal.

He felt that the food he ate from the dragon's belly would likely no longer be food when he took it out.

Su Qing suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked to the west, where there was a small group of about twenty people. Although the number of people was small, they all had a very fierce aura. They were led by a peak Glory, and there were two other Glory members in the group. The rest of them were also high-ranking knights. They were obviously an elite squad from the central army.

At that moment, the squad seemed to have spotted them, killed several of their scouts, and stealthily approached.

It seems that someone in this squad has reconnaissance abilities; otherwise, it would have been impossible to discover several spies scattered over such a large area.

Of course, even the most monstrous beings can't reach the level of those who can cover tens of thousands of miles in an instant. Although you can't hear them, their visual perception alone is astonishing enough.

"Watch out, someone's approaching this way!"

Su Qing offered a reminder, and the captain of the grain transport team took his words to heart, knowing that this was a magnificent dragon.

Although the steward had warned him before they set off that this dragon was of questionable character, even utterly despicable, he wouldn't be so careless as to joke around in a place like this, and that someone might actually be sneaking close.

He immediately ordered a state of alert and then asked Su Qing which direction she was coming from.

Su Qing pointed to the west: "I suggest you strike first and catch them off guard. Leave these provisions here and I'll keep an eye on them. Make sure no one else takes them!"

Su Qing spoke earnestly, even righteously, but to the squad leader, it sounded somewhat strange.

"I will never let anyone take it away." If someone else said this, there would be no problem, but when it came from the dragon's mouth, it took on a different meaning.

However, the dragon's suggestion makes sense.

Immediately, he asked Su Qing to watch over the grain and fodder, and Su Qing readily agreed. However, this bastard left two more people to keep an eye on Su Qing.

Only then did he lead his men to set off. Because Su Qing said that the two sides were already very close and mentioned that the other side might have reconnaissance abilities, he immediately and decisively led his men to launch an attack.

He rode his BMW for over a thousand meters and crashed head-on into the small team that was sneaking towards him.

Although it was an elite squad, it only had about twenty people. On the other hand, the grain transport squad, although the individual skills of the soldiers were far inferior to their opponents, had several hundred people. They charged and wiped out the enemy in one fell swoop, taking down the twenty-odd people as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

More than twenty heads—that's a considerable achievement.

As for the wealth these people carried, Su Qing, as a meritorious official, accepted it without hesitation. However, it was clear that these guys had come to the rear of the four major forces with the intention of dying, and their wealth was very limited, only enough to fill a gap in Su Qing's teeth.

This made Su Qing somewhat frustrated, and what frustrated him even more was that he discovered these people didn't trust him.

They actually didn't trust him to guard the grain supplies, which were the food for the soldiers on the front lines. How could he possibly embezzle such things? He was an upright dragon.

Su Qing was still fuming when he arrived at the front line, and his anger only subsided after he received payment for the goods he had delivered.

The batch of artillery he brought was quickly put to use in the defense of the city, and the cannonballs also relieved the crisis of insufficient artillery fire that was about to occur.

The morale of the entire city was immediately boosted.

This war was brutal. The Central Army launched a holy war, wanting to occupy the lands of Chaos Territory and expand its own territory.

Meanwhile, the various factions in Chaos Territory wanted to defend their own territory while also eliminating the Central Army.

The battle was extremely fierce. It is said that no fewer than five members of the Glorious Army have fallen, and two members at the peak of the Glorious Army have been wounded. This is only the loss of the four major forces; the losses of the enemy's central army are no less than theirs.

When Su Qing arrived in the city, he witnessed a battle, not a large-scale war, but a fight between several powerful individuals.

Ariel and two other peak-level warriors clashed with five equally powerful warriors from the Central Army.
