Chapter 439 Bloodbath in Phoenix Palace!

Liu Zhishen is a general who is both academic and practical. He has participated in countless battles with Shen Wuxiang. His military talents and response to the enemy are both excellent.

From the moment he heard Wang Zhong shout out the enemy attack, he immediately issued several military orders.

"Let the information troops spy on the enemy and monitor the number of enemy troops at the first time."

"Activate the 'Wind and Fire Sea' defense system. Activate the 'Aegis' defense shield."

"Order the 211th Regiment, the 221st Regiment, and the 9th Flying Unit to annihilate the enemy."

"Let the Undead Army's Third Brigade, the 9th Brigade, the Gray Wolf Corps, and the Star Shattering Mobile Force guard the major exits of Luban Mountain and guard against their internal and external cooperation."

"Issue warning information to the Fengwu Army, the Yuhuo Army, and other auxiliary corps, so that they can prepare to meet the enemy."

——

With Luban Mountain as the center of the circle, all 100,000 troops stationed in the three major camps around Luban Mountain gathered.

Countless fighter planes and military star discs flew into the sky, ready to compete with the invading enemy.

The Fenghuohai defense system was activated, and the Aegis defense shield was activated.

However, the enemy was obviously well prepared.

The super weapon ‘Thor’ energy bombs bombarded the energy shield one after another. Soon, the energy shield sizzled and a huge crack appeared in the center.

Several more Thor energy bombs flew together.

Boom!

The Aegis energy shield collapsed and disappeared in a hissing sound.

The Fenghuohai defense system was also accurately locking and attacking the enemy at the same time. Unfortunately, the enemy was dense and overwhelming.

A fighter plane disappeared, but there were still countless fighter planes rushing over.

A star disc disappeared, and more star discs rushed over.

Cruel and cunning, fearless of death.

How could there be no deaths in war?

Qin Jianyi took the lead, he stood on a star disc, and when the defense shield was torn, he fell from the sky with a long sword in his hand.

Like a god of war, he slashed at the leader in general uniform on the ground with a sword.

To catch a thief, first catch the leader!

Lu Family. Deep at the bottom of Luban Mountain.

On the silver square, Lu Dongyang looked at the rows of family warriors wearing helmets and holding thunder in front of him, and shouted in a deep voice: "Do you hear the sound of artillery fire outside? That's the horn of battle."

"And what we have to do is to end the battle."

"With the blood of our generation, we will rebuild the glory of the Lu family."

"With the blood of our generation, we will rebuild the glory of the Lu family."

Everyone shouted in unison.

They are either children of the Lu family or adopted by the Lu family. They are provided with food, clothing, housing and transportation by the Lu family. They regard the Lu family as their home and are loyal to the Lu family.

In times of crisis, they stood up.

The glory of the thousand-year-old family will be protected by them.

"Kill."

At Lu Dongyang's command, hundreds of mecha warriors soared into the sky, and under the leadership of the captains, they rushed towards the most intense place of the battle.

The core of Lu's 'pet army' has also entered a state of combat readiness. Lu Siyu tied a simple ponytail, wore a pure white combat uniform, and wore a pair of black flight boots on her feet.

Refreshing and cool.

"Each pet army is ready." She issued orders with a cold expression.

She is very young, a little too young.

However, she is the supreme leader of this powerful and mysterious army.

First, she is the core of Lu's direct lineage.

Such a core force can only be controlled by the Lu family.

Second, she is the most outstanding mechanic of the younger generation of Lu.

No one disobeyed.

No one dared to disobey.

"The mechanical bee army is ready."

"The mechanical mouse army is ready."

"The mechanical beast army is ready."

"Attack!" Lu Siyu shouted loudly.

As senior engineers in white combat uniforms pressed the buttons in their hands, countless mechanical bees, mechanical mice, mechanical lions, and nine-tailed snakes rushed out from the sky, the woods, and the ground to fight and destroy the enemy.

Liu Zhishen's heart was filled with despair.

This was a battle without suspense.

When Qin Jianyi led the army to attack, the two sides fought evenly.

When Lu's mecha warriors appeared, the scales of victory had begun to tilt towards Lu's side.

Although there were only 763 mecha warriors, they were all elites selected from the best of Lu.

More than 300 of them were practitioners, and the others were proficient in fighting.

They were also equipped with Lu's most advanced mechas and the most intense artillery support, and their entry was a reduction-rate strike.

There were also mecha warriors in the encirclement and suppression forces, especially the Star-Breaking Force, which was the empire's famous mecha force.

However, when the two sides came into contact, the mecha warriors of the Star-Breaking Force found that their armor was like paper.

What a joke.

These mechas were designed by Lu, the materials were provided by them, and the electronic information and firepower devices were also equipped by them.

How could they hand over the most advanced technology?

Rather than giving others an advantage, it is better to arm yourself.

Even the imperial family is no exception.

This is the source of the mechanical race's confidence and the basis for self-protection.

Playing mecha with the descendants of the mechanical ancestor, isn't this a joke?

I can crush you to death with my eyes closed.

What's more terrifying is that when those all-pervasive and indestructible pet legions join the battle, the coalition forces have no ability to resist.

Mechanical bees fall from the sky and kill a large group of comrades in one sprint.

Mechanical rats emerged from the ground, fighting alone or in groups of three or five, biting towards the soldiers.

He tore off a piece of meat in one bite and bit off an arm in another bite.

Their teeth are made of the sharpest alloy and are indestructible. They can bite even stone and iron in one bite.

How much more flesh and blood?

The nine-tailed snake flicked its tail, and a company of soldiers flew high into the sky.

Mechanical lions and mechanical tigers are even better beasts for charging into battle. They rushed straight into the queue. After a back and forth, the formation was disrupted and there were many casualties.

Qin Jianyi led an army to besiege from the outside, and Lu sent a mechanical army to counterattack from the inside.

The 100,000-strong army that was originally used to besiege Luban Mountain was now wrapped in dumplings and was in a dilemma.

Can't fight.

This battle is simply unwinnable.

——

Military Commission.

In the war room, after Shen Wuxiang heard about the attack on the coalition forces, his eyes were as sharp as knives and his face was as dark as water. He asked aloud: "Qin Jianyi?"

"Yes, Qin Jianyi led his Sirius troops to launch a general attack on the Undead Army from the front."

"Qin Xinghai and Qin Xuanyang led the Qin family's direct unit 711 to launch an attack on Fengwu Army and Yuhuo Army from the side."

"The Lu family dispatched their mecha troops and pet troops to launch a counterattack against our encirclement and suppression troops from within."

"The battle is now stalemate, but according to the news from the frontline staff headquarters, the situation is not optimistic."

"We are very likely to be defeated."

——

Defeated?

What a familiar word.

Last time they sent three brigades to encircle Luban Mountain, but they lured the enemy deep and killed them all.

The whole army was destroyed.

This time, in the name of the imperial royal family, they dispatched three major legions and formed a coalition of 100,000 people to besiege Luban Mountain.

Unexpectedly, they encountered a sniper attack by the Qin family and the Lu family, who cooperated inside and outside.

I'm afraid it's not just as simple as failure.

"A Luban Mountain can be filled with a hundred thousand troops." Shen Wuxiang's eyes were stern. Anyone who heard such information would feel extremely unhappy: "Isn't one hundred thousand people enough? Not even one hundred thousand people can fill it?"

"If we just deal with the Lu family inside Luban Mountain, one hundred thousand people may be enough." Shen Xinglan, who stayed by his grandfather's side to help, replied: "But now it is the Qin family who has stepped forward to help and stabbed us in the back. That’s pretty bad.”

"The Sirius Legion under Qin Jianyi is an elite force. One is worth ten. Although there are only 30,000 people, their strength cannot be underestimated."

"Unit 711 is a direct descendant of the Qin family. Everyone is armed to the teeth. In comparison, our numbers are actually at a disadvantage."

"Why did the Qin family stand up to help them?" Chen Erbeng, one of the staff members, frowned and asked, "Don't the two families have a deadly feud?"

If you want to achieve great things, you naturally need to understand the dynamics of all parties.

Although the Qin family has never accepted Shen's wooing, they are not in the same boat as them.

However, they have no reason to stand with Lu, right?

According to the intelligence they collected, Tang Bandit and his younger brother Gong Shulei were made things difficult and humiliated by Qin Yuyang of the Qin family when they first arrived in Xinxing.

Because of this incident, Tang Bandit also had a fight with Qin Jianyi in the Phoenix Palace.

That was when Tang Bandit first showed his prominence as a new star and attracted the attention of all forces.

Later, when the Tang bandit served in the Supervisory Council, he tortured Qin Yuyang of the Qin family to death and slapped him wildly in front of many dandy children.

Still not satisfied with his hatred, Qin Jianyi was also sent to the Supervisory Yuan and imprisoned for a while.

It can be said to be a severe revenge.

How come we have turned enemies into friends and come together now?

Don't understand!

It’s really hard to understand!

"People die for money, and birds die for food." Shen Xinglan's expression was as usual. He was always smart and many things were clear at a glance: "Maybe they had some conflicts earlier, but later they came together because of their interests."

"What benefits can there be between them? What can the Lu family bring to them?" Chen Erbeng asked.

If we look at the strength of the family, the overall strength of the Qin family is stronger than that of the Lu family.

The main reason is that the Lu family has been severely suppressed in recent years. Apart from the minister of the Machinery Department, the entire family has no other high-ranking ministerial officials.

Even the Machinery Department was infiltrated like a sieve by the royal family and major families.

Except for those technicians and engineers who are truly difficult to replace, most administrative officials are occupied by major forces.

The royal family and the Ministry of Commerce established a number of companies to produce smart wearables and military equipment to differentiate the Lu family's economic strength and influence among the people.

This is the foundation of the country. How can it be possible to let an untrusted family have full authority?

It can be said that apart from technology, Lu has nothing.

The Qin family is the family with the most troops besides the Shen family.

If you want money, you have money, and if you want people, you have money.

What can the Lu family bring to the Qin family?

It would make sense if the two families were dominated by the Qin family.

Now it looks more like the Qin family is providing support to the Lu family.

What makes them so desperate?

"I really wanted to use this matter to lure out the people from their side and catch them all." Shen Wuxiang's eyes were cold and he said loudly, "But I didn't expect to lure out this big rat from the Qin family."

"This is also what puzzles me."

Sun Shehu frowned and said aloud: "It is actually extremely unwise to choose to take sides at this time."

"What's more, we now have the absolute advantage and initiative. If they choose the Lu family, they will become enemies of our Shen family, and they will inevitably be attacked by us in all directions."

"When we help the eldest prince secure his position as the head of the country, the situation of the Qin family will become even more difficult."

"They can choose to wait and see for the time being, or they can choose to be wise and protect themselves. The best way is to take sides after the situation stabilizes."

"With their family's strength and influence in the military, no one will conflict with them at this time."

"Why did they stand up to support Lu?"

This is also difficult for everyone present to understand.

Compared with the benefits they can reap, choosing to take sides at this time is stupid and dangerous.

When the Shen family achieves complete success, how will the Qin family deal with it?

Are they waiting for them to be eliminated and eradicated like the Lu family?

"These are not things we need to consider." Shen Wuxiang waved his hand and said angrily: "Anyone who stands with us is our friend. Anyone who stands opposite us is our enemy."

"Friends come with good wine, enemies come with axes."

"We have only one way to deal with our enemies: fight to the death."

"What does the military minister mean?" Sun Shehu asked aloud.

"Pass my order to dispatch the 3rd Division of the Undead Army, the 314th Brigade, and the Tiger Mobile Team to support the Luban Mountain battlefield."

"Order the First Ace Legion to start moving closer to Phoenix City and form a crushing force."

After a pause, Shen Wuxiang looked at Shen Xinglan and said, "They took the lead in attacking and broke the balance we wanted."

"If they are not willing to negotiate, then don't negotiate."

"You lead the Vulcan Legion to take down the Phoenix Palace. I don't care what method you use, I only care about the results."

In order to capture the Phoenix Palace with dignity, Shen Wuxiang seized the power of the empire without any bloodshed. He only sent troops to surround the Phoenix Palace without actually launching an attack.

Of course, this has another meaning.

They hoped that when they walked into the Phoenix Palace, the Tang bandits had already killed Zhong Daolong.

Zhong Daolong died, and the Tang bandits and Zhong Tianyi became regicides.

In that case, the big position has nothing to do with them at all.

Unexpectedly, Tang Bandit and the others did not follow common sense and teamed up with the Qin family to launch an attack on them.

In this case, they simply turned over the table.

Bloodbath in the Phoenix Palace.

"Yes." Shen Xinglan stood up and saluted.

Although he is not a soldier, he is still in the army and still behaves according to military etiquette.

"They chopped off my limbs, and we raided their home."

"Make sure to complete the mission."

——

Phoenix Palace.

Tang Bandit and the old man stood in front of the holographic image and watched the battle on the Luban Mountain side in real time.

"We have taken the initiative for the time being." The old man looked at the scene where Qin Jian, who was like the god of war, slashed a group of people to death with his sword. His mood was stable and he said calmly: "However, they will definitely send troops to support."

"Luban Mountain is a very important bargaining chip. It is important to us and equally important to them. Therefore, they will definitely try their best to hold this trump card in their hands."

Tang Bandit's eyes fell on the army of mechanical rats. He followed Lu Whisper through Luban Mountain. When he faced the army of mechanical beasts, he really felt a sense of powerlessness running down his spine.

He would rather face ten little masters than face those steel monsters.

There is really no way to start.

"Luban Mountain is right around Phoenix City. There are not many troops stationed around Phoenix City. One hundred thousand people have been mobilized before. If they want to restore their disadvantage, they will have to mobilize troops from the other seven military regions."

"This is not something that can be accomplished in a short while. So, we still have a chance."

"If the battle can be resolved before the support troops arrive, then even if they arrive, they will not affect the overall situation."

"I hope so." The old man nodded and felt that what Tang Bandit said made sense.

If the Lu family and the Qin family resolve the battle before the supporting troops arrive, they will join forces victoriously.

Then, no matter how many more people they send, they will be chopped into pieces.

The Luban Mountain, which does not look majestic but stretches for hundreds of kilometers, is a huge meat grinding factory. Anyone who enters will die.

This is the pride of the Millennium Lu family.

"However, there is one thing we still have to be careful about."

"Shen's counterattack." The old man said.

"Where do you think they will attack from?" Tang Bandit asked.

"Phoenix Palace." The old man said without hesitation: "If I were Shen Wuxiang, I would level the Phoenix Palace with artillery fire."

"."

Tang Bandit thought to himself, fortunately you are not Shen Wuxiang.

Otherwise, what else are we having fun with?

This is the Phoenix Palace, the symbol of power of the empire.

Did you blow it up just because you didn't agree with it?

Do you know this is anti-human and anti-social behavior?

"As I thought, their counterattack target must be the Phoenix Palace." Tang Bandi looked at the old man and said, "However, Shen Wuxiang still feels that everything is under control until now, in order to reduce future troubles."

"So, he will not choose to directly level the Phoenix Palace. Instead, he will send people to storm the Phoenix Palace and capture the people inside alive."

"Those who hesitate will lose." The old man looked mocking: "Your father was like this, and Shen Wuxiang was like this."

"."

At this moment, Yan Jingnian, wearing a black cycling suit, walked in quickly.

"Troops are gathering outside the Phoenix Palace. It looks like they are going to storm the Phoenix Palace." Yan Jingnian said in a cold voice.

The interior of the Phoenix Palace is now under the joint responsibility of the Hive and the Ghost, while the external security of the Phoenix Palace is handed over to the Palace Guards and the Black Cavalry of the Supervisory Council who just arrived.

"Who will be in charge?" Tang Fei asked.

"The leader is Shen Xinglan."

"Shen Xinglan?" Tang Fei pondered for a moment and said, "Take Zhong Daolong with you. Whichever direction Shen Xinglan attacks from, push Zhong Daolong to that side."

"."

Tang Fei glanced at the old man and said, "This is what he meant."

"."The old man.
