Chapter 312: Urgent military development

This gun was very different compared to a normal Source Energy Submachine Gun, it fired real ammunition with a special magazine. The gun’s muzzle seemed like it was sealed, but there were several small holes and each hole could fire Blood Yin Steel Needles at high speeds. These needles could ignore an Awakened Soul Cultivator’s protective spirit energy, so it could directly pass through their defenses to hurt them.

Each needle was personally made by Chu Tian, so not only were they sharp, they had also been quenched in the poison of the Snake Scorpion Beast King, so they could instantly paralyze enemies that were hit.

“Stop!”

The Calm Martial Ruler raised his hand.

A giant blood red sword fell down from the skies, falling close to Wang Tianlong.

The surrounding Yin Corpses were pushed back by this power, moving back over thirty meters, not being able to take a step forward. The Calm Martial Ruler grabbed out through space and Wang Tianlong was sent in front of him. The result of this match had been settled, there was no point in fighting anymore.

“Chu Tian wins!”

Chu Tian gave a few laughs, “You let me win, you let me win. Heroic Martial Marquis…..Oh, no, according to our agreement, you won’t go by that title anymore. I should call you young commander Wang instead. Many thanks for young commander Wang for showing mercy.”

Wang Tianlong almost fainted on the spot.

“Ha, ha, ha!” Nangong Yun shouted while laughing, “Your young commander personally agreed to this bet and even the Three Rulers and his majesty witnessed it. Would the Wang Family go back on their word?!”

The Wang Family members all had dark expressions.

Being inducted and being kicked out in the same day. The Heroic Martial Ruler did not even remain for half a day before losing his title, this was enough to become a joke in the Southern Summer Country. Whether it was to Wang Tianlong alone or to the Wang Family, this was a great shame that they could never wash themselves of!

The Southern Summer King’s expression was not good either. He wanted to use the promotion of the Heroic Martial Marquis to pressure Chu Tian, not letting Chu Tian show off as much.

In the end?

The Heroic Martial Marquis lost his title in just a single day!

Chu Tian had stepped over the Heroic Martial Marquis and raised his reputation another level. Was there anyone that could suppress his light? This person could not be restrained and could not be controlled by the Southern Summer King, would he be an existence that could shake the royal power?

The Refined Ruler could guess the Southern Summer King’s thoughts, “The Heroic Martial Marquis’ lost is not one of strength, but one from underestimating his opponent. Chu Tian’s victory is not one of strength and is one from drawing on outside support. With the Heroic Martial Marquis’ merits and the Wang Family’s prestige in Southern Summer, directly taking away the title, this ruler thinks it would be improper. This ruler thinks we should take back the royal proclamation for now and let the Heroic Martial Ruler reflect on this. We’ll reinstate him in another month!”

“The Refined Ruler has the same view as this king.” The Southern Summer King said in a teaching voice, “General Wang should properly think about this. As a general of the battlefield, how can you underestimate your opponent? This matter should be a lesson for you!”

Wang Tianlong quickly kneeled down, “My wise king’s lesson will be remembered!”

Chu Tian’s side was not satisfied.

This fellow clearly promised to give up the marquis title, but now he was going against that promise?

But to the Southern Summer King’s proposal, not only did the Calm Martial Ruler and the Burning Sun Ruler not have any objections, even the great scholar silently agreed.

Being titled a marquis was not a small matter, how could it be taken away like this?

This would not only shock the court, the Wang Family had a high prestige in the Imperial City. They were the previous royal family and had a long history, as well as having ten years of battle merit, so if they lost their title because of a bet, that would be denying the Wang Family all of their merits. Could the Southern Summer King be fickle enough to negate it like this? He couldn’t take away the title, but he could at most delay it. This was considered fulfilling the agreement for Miracle Commerce and giving Chu Tian some face.

“Today’s battle has opened this king’s eyes. Scholar Chu is an outstanding youth, you will be awarded ten Soul Weapons, ten Saint Grade Herbs, and twenty thousand gold coins!”

Regardless of whether Chu Tian was satisfied or not with this result, the Southern Summer King had already made his decision and it was impossible to change, so he had to accept it no matter what.

The Three Rulers showed their support for this. At this moment, this was the only thing they could do.

Before the stir caused by this event dissipated.

Suddenly, a sharp cry came from the sky.

There was a griffin that quickly flew across the sky and a knight jumped down from the griffin’s back. His face was filled with worry as he ran in front of the Southern Summer King and knelt down on one knee, “Reporting to my king, there is an urgent military development!”

The Southern Summer King and the Three Rulers were both stunned as they stood up at the same time.

“Speak!”

The griffin knight held a report forward with both hands, “This is a report from the frontline scouts. There is a large gathering of the War Hounds troops and there is movement near Cang State which is very suspicious. I ask my king for your orders!”

The Southern Summer King thought for a bit, “How many did you see?”

The Refined Ruler said with a frown, “From the path of the War Hounds Tribe, they seem like they want to raid Cang State City, so we should increase the defenses of Cang State City. Otherwise if Cang State City falls, Imperial City will be isolated to the north and everything will fall apart.”

“This ruler does not feel like this is the case. Cang State City has high walls and a deep position, so even if the War Hounds Tribe unite as one to attack, it would be hard to attack. The reconnaissance saw that it was a group of light cavalry, this does not seem like a group to attack a fortified camp!” The Calm Martial Ruler thought about it a bit, “I think the attack on Cang State City is a diversion and their target should be the Cang State farms!”

With these words.

Several people trembled.

The Cang State farms had a large meaning for the Southern Summer Country. The mounts of the several hundred thousand Southern Summer cavalry were all bred from Cang State. If the farms were destroyed by the War Hounds Tribe, there would be less cavalry soldiers and they would not have a means to fight the War Hounds Tribe in the end.

This was a ruthless move of removing the firewood from under the fire.

The Southern Summer King revealed a look of rage, “The frontline has just been reduced and the War Hounds Tribe are already in a rush to attack? They really are anxious!”

“This matter is not simple.” The Calm Martial Ruler revealed a look of worry, “The War Hound Plains has not launched a strategic military strike against the Southern Summer Country in many years now.”

A strategic military attack referred to a planned invasion.

In the recent several years, the War Hounds Tribe had come many times, but it was just for simple raids before leaving. This large scale invasion had a different meaning. Whether it was the War Hounds Tribe attacking the horse farms or directly attacking Cang State City, their intention was to shut off an important supply route for the Southern Summer Country.

The Imperial Region was the heart of the Southern Summer Country, it was very hard to capture.

With the Three Rulers and the Southern Summer King guarding it, one third of the entire nation’s cavalry and infantry, and various elite troops personally guarding the Imperial Region. Over 80% of the Southern Summer battle strength was located in the Imperial Region, this is the result of the kingdom’s recuperation over the years.

They couldn’t hit the Imperial Region.

They could only begin from Cang State.

The War Hounds Tribe in comparison, after the last Fang King fell, they had been locked in internal conflict with each tribe fighting against each other. Their power couldn’t compare to the previous War Hounds Kingdom era.

Not to mention the scattered War Hounds Tribe, even if they were working together, they would still require over a year of fighting before they could even penetrate the Imperial Region. The best method was the long term strategy which was to nibble away at Cang State and isolating the Imperial Region, fighting a long term battle.

So attacking Cang State was just the first step in their strategy.

Of course, the Southern Summer King and the Three Rulers were not worried.

This matter was very hard to accomplish. Although the Southern Summer Country had many disasters, the country itself was relatively stable. The War Hounds Tribe had a low level social structure, so they were doomed to be filled with internal struggles. Even if they could unite, it would quickly disappear without a trace.

This long term strategy was not suited to a kingdom filled with internal strife.

Even if the War Hounds Tribe soldiers succeed, they would only hurt the foundation of the Southern Summer’s northern attack plan, It would not cause any foundational damage to the Southern Summer Country itself.

“They came right in time!” The Southern Summer King considered the situation before patting the railing in front of him, “This king recalled many famous generals mainly because of a plan to attack the War Hounds Tribe. But the War Hounds are nomads and although the Refined Ruler has intelligence, on the vast grasslands, it is not easy to find them. Since they took the initiative to launch a large scale cavalry attack on our territory, this king will happily accept this piece of meat!”

“Your majesty!” When Wang Tianlong heard this, he immediately knelt down on one knee, “The Battle Dragon Army requests to enter the battle!”

“General has been wounded right now, you should rest up. Not to mention the fact that the ones that came back are the Battle Dragon Army elites and the soldiers are still on the frontlines, unable to move. You will have no soldiers if you head to Cang State!”

Wang Tianlong said, “Does this subordinate need a high standard for soldiers? If normal soldiers work together with the Battle Dragon Army elites, I think it will be enough to eliminate the War Hounds cavalry! As for this subordinate’s wounds, it is not worth mentioning!”

“Ha, ha, ha! General is eager for more merits, this king can understand that. The Southern Summer army’s northern expedition is drawing close, you will have the opportunity to achieve merits in the future!” The Southern Summer King did not agree to Wang Tianlong heading out, “This battle must be beautifully fought to show off the prestige of my Southern Summer Country, allowing us to launch the northern expedition. So, for this battle, in order to be cautious, the Calm Martial Ruler will personally take command!”

Wang Tianlong was not satisfied at first.

But when the Southern Summer King said that the Calm Martial Ruler was personally taking command, he instantly had no words to say.

In the entire Southern Summer Country, who had more authority than the Calm Martial Ruler? Not to mention the fact that the Calm Martial Ruler was a True Spirit Realm expert. With his high cultivation, he was unmatched in the Southern Summer Country and could not find a single opponent. If he was personally taking command, even without actually fighting, just his prestige alone was enough to make the War Hounds Tribe shit their pants.

“The Three Rulers will return to the palace with this king, we will properly formulate a plan.” The Southern Summer King said to the others, “You can all leave!”

The Southern Summer King and the Three Rulers left.

Chu Tian led his people back to the company. Everyone was feeling very depressed on the road back and he was curious, so he asked, “What are you worrying about? That fellow has already been taught a lesson. It’s fine if he didn’t lose the marquis title, the Southern Summer King is ambitious and is preparing for the northern expedition, so he wouldn’t be dumb enough to offend a senior general at a time like this!”

“We aren’t thinking about that.” Meng Yingying looked up at Chu Tian with sparkling eyes, “The Southern Summer Country is about to break out in war again!”

“What about it?”

Nangong Yun interrupted, “You’re not worried at all? The enemy is the War Hounds Tribe, they have suppressed the Southern Summer Country for several hundred years!”

War was always a serious topic.

Other than battle freaks, there was no one else that liked fighting.

Not to mention how strong the enemies were. The War Hounds Tribe was the greatest nemesis of the Southern Summer Country!

Chu Tian scratched his head. It had only been a few days since he arrived in Imperial City and he wasn’t even familiar with the streets yet. He knew nothing about the cities in the Imperial Region and did not know about the situation to the north. He had no idea of the tribes, the population, the strength, equipment, and intelligence of the War Hounds, so Chu Tian could not determine if this war was a good or bad thing.

“Your fears are all groundless.” Chu Tian comforted everyone, “The Southern Summer King and the Three Rulers are not weak, they have a thorough understanding of the War Hound Plains. Since they didn’t have any objections this time, it means this war can be fought.”

The Southern Summer Country had recuperated for several dozen years and now had enough military strength.

The most important thing was that there was something different about the Southern Summer Country. They had now established a Source Energy Weapon factory and would soon have advanced weapons. Once these weapons were spread amongst the army, not to mention this split apart War Hounds Kingdom, even the War Hounds Kingdom in their peak could be taken care of.

Technology could make up the difference in strength!

Meng Qingwu gave a slight nod, “War is a disaster and an opportunity. At least the Southern Summer King needs us now, so he will not make any moves against us. We’ll use this time to properly develop ourselves!”

Meng Yingying said to Chu Tian, “Speaking of this, Chu Tian, are you participating in the war!”

“Why are you asking this?” Chu Tian was very curious, “I don’t understand strategy and do not understand this era’s military weapons. I don’t even know the state of the Southern Summer army. Do you think someone can lead troops like this?”

Meng Yingying let out a sigh, “Then I can be assured!”

What was this girl thinking?!
