"Well, thank you both for your hard work this time. Once the troops are restored, the next two capitals will be yours." Lu Ping said with a smile.
"Yeah." Tang Qi and Xia Mo agreed sweetly, their faces full of joy.
"Let's go to the city mansion and then land in the main city." Lu Ping called out and led everyone into the mansion.
The scale of the City Lord's Mansion in the capital city is larger than that in the provincial capital, but that's all. The internal facilities are basically the same.
After entering the city, Lu Ping immediately opened the system, checked the territory map, and selected the landing location in the capital.
After some inspection, Lu Ping set the capital in the west of his territory, close to Tang Qi's position.
After the selection is completed, Lu Ping chooses Confirm.
With a loud rumbling sound, the capital city fell from the sky and landed steadily at the designated location.
Afterwards, Lu Ping set the capital as the main city.
At the same time, a system announcement sounded over the battlefield of all nations.
"Ding, congratulations to player Lu Ping for conquering the capital and becoming the first player to do so."
"Ding, congratulations to player Lu Ping for conquering the capital and becoming the first player to do so."
"Ding, congratulations to player Lu Ping for conquering the capital and becoming the first player to do so."
“…”
Three consecutive system announcements instantly set off the whole world.
Lu Ping's attack on the capital had long attracted the attention of all parties, but all parties agreed that Lu Ping could not succeed, including the military.
But it turned out that Lu Ping did it.
It has achieved something unprecedented.
Countless Qing citizens flocked to the forum to discuss Lu Ping's great achievements.
In contrast, the Eagle Sauce Alliance was silent. The fall of the capital by Lu Ping was like a bolt from the blue for them.
Especially the top leaders of the Eagle Sauce Alliance were furious.
If Lu Ping can capture one capital city, he can capture the second, and even the third...
Once the four capitals fall into Lu Ping's hands, it is conceivable that taking over the imperial city is almost a foregone conclusion.
As one gains strength, the other loses strength, and the Eagle Sauce will be left far behind by the Qing Kingdom.
And this is definitely not the ending they want to see.
No matter what, Lu Ping cannot be allowed to succeed. The alliance must seize the remaining three capitals first.
So, the Eagle Sauce Alliance immediately took action, preparing to organize the strongest force to seize the remaining three capitals first.
The Qing army also formulated the same plan at the first opportunity, and for this purpose the army specially sent Chen Zhiyuan to learn from Lu Ping.
Lu Ping also told everyone everything he knew about this.
Of course, Zhang Jiao and Lu Ping would definitely not tell anyone.
In order to ensure sufficient troops, the military then bought the state capital from Lu Ping at the cost of 600 clones.
With the capital, the provincial capital naturally lost its function, and Lu Ping readily agreed to the military's conditions.
As for whether the military or the Eagle Sauce could capture the capital, Lu Ping was not worried at all, unless they also had Zhang Jiao and Zhang Daoling.
…
In the next two days, Lu Ping redeployed the territory and sent people to rebuild the city walls and moat.
After everything was arranged, Lu Ping, Tang Qi and others returned to the real world to prepare to celebrate the Spring Festival.
This world, like the Blue Planet, also has the Spring Festival.
Of course, the Spring Festival is just a festival for Chinese people and has nothing to do with other countries.
When Lu Ping came back, it was the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month, which was the Little New Year in the lunar calendar.
According to custom, people worship the Kitchen God, sweep the house and paste window paper on the eve of the Chinese New Year.
As soon as they came back, Xia Mo and others immediately got busy.
Of course Lu Ping didn't need to do anything, he just had to sit and wait for dinner.
Lu Ping asked Xishi to make tea and enjoyed it happily.
"bite."
Just then, the cell phone suddenly rang.
Lu Ping took it out and saw that it was a message from the battlefield of all nations.
When I clicked on it, it turned out to be a ceasefire announcement.
The announcement said that after consultation between the governments of various countries and the International Battlefield, the International Battlefield is prohibited from attacking each other from now until the end of March.
"What the hell! What does this mean?"
After reading the content, Lu Ping suddenly felt confused.
"Honey, have you received the notice?"
"Husband, why did you suddenly stop fighting?"
"Brother, is there something wrong?"
Tang Qi, Xia Mo, and Lu Yi also received the announcement and gathered around to ask curiously.
"I don't know either. It feels like something is going to happen?" Lu Ping frowned.
The announcement did not explain much, only stating the ceasefire period but not the specific reasons.
"If you ask me, something big must have happened, otherwise there would be no ceasefire for no reason." Tang Qi guessed.
"Turn on the TV quickly and see if there's any news." Xia Mo suddenly thought of it.
"kindness."
Lu Ping immediately turned on the TV.
But the news on TV is all normal, and most of the content is about celebrating the Spring Festival.
Lu Ping changed several channels but couldn't find any relevant news.
"Haha, that's weird?"
Lu Ping shook his head, a little confused.
"Look, clones?"
Suddenly, Tang Qi screamed.
Lu Ping and others all looked at the TV screen.
The news reported that human clones had entered mass production.
In the picture, clones are coming off the production line in an endless stream, and the number is frightening.
But what surprised Lu Ping was that these clones were obviously different from the clones Lu Ping had obtained. Not only did they all look the same, but there was also no gender difference.
More importantly, their limbs are made of machinery.
Seeing this situation, Lu Ping was stunned for a while.
But soon, Lu Ping realized that these clones should be combat models.
Because in the subsequent scenes, these clones seemed to be equipped with weapons.
"I see. These clones are probably used specifically to deal with the creatures in the Demon Cave."
Lu Ping suddenly realized.
After hearing Lu Ping's words, everyone nodded in agreement.
"Using clones to deal with Morgul creatures isn't surprising, but it has nothing to do with the truce."
"Brother, should we also make some combat clones?" Lu Yi suddenly said.
"As long as it's useful, why not? We can exchange some with the military later."
"As for the reason for the ceasefire, look, isn't this it?"
Everyone followed Lu Ping's gaze and saw scrolling subtitles on the TV screen.
"Please pay attention, citizens. At 8:00 AM on the fourth day of the first lunar month, the Qing government will make a major announcement. Please tune in."
"Government announcement?"
After seeing the content, Xia Mo and others were confused, only Lu Ping seemed to have guessed something.
If nothing unexpected happens, the government should be preparing to make the arrival of the devil's lair public.
This is normal. The arrival of the demon cave will be announced sooner or later.
Calculating the time, there is less than a year and a half left before the demon cave descends.
