Chapter 938 Mi Lai's Restoration (2)
"Three hundred thousand?" An Yu and others were shocked after hearing this. In addition, the more than 400,000 outside the Yiyan City was nearly 800,000. Such military strength made everyone feel scared. If it weren't for the sudden death of Jingtian Divine Sect, then the Yiyan City and Milai Kingdom were already in the past.
After a rough estimate of the Milei army, the total number of Maha troops killed in the port exceeded 300,000. From the equipment of weapons, the style of armor, the war horses, the flags, etc., it can be shown that these are the elites of the Maha army. The Milei country has arrived at the Yiyan City for Fengyu Xiuxiong's army. If you want to take down this last city, the original 500,000 troops are more than enough, which means that these elite troops cannot be prepared for Milei.
When An Yu thought of the large number of spare troop transport ships on the water, he quickly turned over the entire map of Yade Continent and his eyes fell on the place of Songshui City.
"So that's it!" An Yu said in a deep voice: "Look here, that is, the location of Songshui City. This is Songshui Port. Maha's large number of transport ships gather here. Look at both sides. The water route to the east is Qianlong River, the other side of the river is Yinyue Kingdom, and the six thousand miles west is Anyuan Pass. After bypassing the pass, it is Lane Kingdom!"
"Ah..." Fang Youjun, Fang Youying and others took a breath, and the latter said: "Feng Yu's troops, plus the support troops, can reach one million people. Such troops are enough to destroy a country! They gathered in Songshui, and it is likely that they would first use Mile as a springboard, take a break, and then rush to advance east or expedition west..."
Guan Yue sighed: "I didn't expect that Maha's military strength has reached this level. Since their southern expedition was setback twenty years ago, there has been no movement. He has been resting and accumulating strength for the ambition to unify the continent."
Sun Bei thought deeply: "You said, if there was no Jingtian Divine Sect, would the Maha Kingdom go east to fight Yinyue, or to fight Ryan in the west?"
Fang Youying looked into the distance with melancholy and said, "What's the difference? When Gu Wang was in crisis, Milai, Ryan and Silver Moon had already been destined to have the result without the help of each other. Any side, fighting alone, cannot defeat Maha."
Everyone nodded with consent, but An Yu looked full of doubts: "The Maha people marched south to unify the Yad continent, which can be attributed to ambition. So what is the purpose of the Respect God Cult? They who think they are superior will not be interested in the Unified Continent, right?"
"Lord An, what is the origin of the Jingtian Divine Sect? From dozens or hundreds of years ago, there were more or less their shadows behind every turmoil and war! Did they come specifically to harm the world?" Sun Bei said angrily.
An Yu was silent for a moment and said, "It's time to say something!" Everyone's eyes gathered on him, either confused, surprised, or expectant, with different expressions.
"I know some other things about Jingtian Shenshen Cult!" An Yu said in a deep voice: "I have heard Yuanyi mention that Jingtian Shenshen Cult has eight holy envoys, each of which is extremely powerful and very mysterious. Even Yuanyi, who grew up in Jingtian Shenshen Cult since she was a child, has only seen one of them, that is, her master, the seventh holy... Thunder Virgin, and her disciples generally call her the Holy Virgin!"
"Holy Virgin? What a proud name, has you compared yourself to the Creation God?" Fang Youjun and others murmured.
"Yuanyi also told me that the Jingtian Divine Sect has three major goals. One is to find and recycle ancient relics, the second is to find holy objects and find hosts for holy objects, and the third is to refine the original substance of life!"
"Ancient relics? What is that? I haven't heard of it!"
"What does a holy object mean? Is it a weapon? Or remains, relics?"
"The original substance of life? Refining? Don't understand!"
"It's indeed a cult. Just hearing what you do, you feel a sense of evil spirit."
Fang Youjun was most curious about these strange things and asked: "Chengfeng, have Yuanyi told you about what ancient relics it is? Or what does the holy object mean? What is the matter of refining the original essence of life?"
"I... don't know much about that ancient relics." An Yu shook his head gently. He didn't ask further questions at the time, and he didn't know.
"However, the holy object should refer to the strange treasure! This time, almost all the Maha army was destroyed, probably because they had the strange treasure in their hands. Perhaps, the Maha people relied on their strong troops and tried to take the strange treasure for themselves, but they did not want to get into such trouble."
"That's the case. Before that man Maha was dying, he was talking about a strange treasure!" Guan Yue said.
90% of Maha's troops were destroyed by the Jingtian Divine Sect, and the remaining ones were only a small number of troops left in the city, and they were very scattered. Qingzhou City and the royal capital had the largest number of troops stationed, with no more than 30,000 people in each place. In addition to the troops scattered in other cities, Maha's total troops in Mile were only over 100,000.
An Yu and his party, who had obtained material supplements, defended the new city like an iron barrel. With Maha's current troops, there was no chance of conquering him.
Because of the urgent war, the name of the city was not engraved outside the gate tower of the new city. An Yu originally wanted to name it "Yuanzhao" City, but the name of "One Night City" in private has been widely spread. Whether the military and civilians talked about the new city, they all praised it. One night city on the left and one night city on the right.
In order to conform to public opinion and to commemorate the experience of building the city, An Yu sent someone to carve three big red characters "One Night City" outside the city gate tower!
This new city has been officially named One Night City!
After the unremitting efforts of everyone, Yiyan City quickly got on track. According to the original plan, the private housing area was being built vigorously, and some administrative buildings were put to the end. The practice of putting the people first was Fang Youjun, Fang Youying and An Yu, which won the praise of all the people.
However, when One Night City was originally designed, it did not expect it to quickly become such a scale. Therefore, the second phase of the project was started, and the city would become an inner city, and a large circle outside would be included in a new city. After all, all the people in Songshui City moved here.
After several days of discussion, the two princesses Fang Youying and Fang Youjun made a decision to send troops to wipe out the Maha army in Milai Country, which also means that the war with Maha will enter the strategic counterattack stage.
Sun Bei, Guan Yue and other generals led 6,000 troops and horses in a row, divided into four groups, advanced north and east, and recovered all the cities along the way one by one.
The Maha defenders in some small cities had only a thousand people. They had received a message from the remaining Maha soldiers. They learned that the main force of Marshal Fengyu was completely wiped out. The morale of the army had collapsed and there was not much fierce resistance at all.
