Under the deliberate manipulation of public opinion, rumors of surrender and rebellion began to spread wildly.
"The allied forces are only purging corrupt officials; why activate the city's protective formation?"
"We should not pay the price for the Regent's actions!"
"Open the gates quickly and welcome the royal army into the capital!"
......
While inside the Gathering of Heroes Hall, Luo Tian paid little attention to the clamor of public opinion.
It's all just a matter of public opinion manipulation; they can make the dead seem alive.
If we were to nitpick over every single one of them, we might as well just patch up the entire Stellaris universe; that way, we could at least have some peace and quiet.
Compared to those things, Luo Tian was more concerned about the war at hand.
Crossing the ruins before the capital, the steel torrent rushing towards the capital's defensive array did not stop for a moment, and the terrifying war machines began to unleash their power.
Huge naval cannons emerged from the void, bombarding the protective array with scorching heat and terrifying roars.
On the magic-powered warship, a magical array inscribed with the Disintegration spell unfolded, eroding the energy of the protective array.
The war behemoth dragged its massive body into the great formation, and with the support of earth elements, the impact, weighing a million tons, shook the earth.
The entire battlefield descended into chaos in an instant.
The imperial capital's defensive array, powerful enough to withstand the attack of a true god, trembled under the onslaught, but managed to hold on by connecting numerous extraordinary arrays.
The towering mage towers in the capital began to summon lightning and heavenly fire, which rained down on the endless allied forces.
The fierce fighting seemed poised to engulf the entire capital.
Luo Tian nodded slightly upon seeing this. Although the Imperial Capital's protective array would shatter upon contact with a stellar warship, it would be difficult to break through in such a large-scale war if the enemy did not have a decisive means of attack.
After all, this is the foundation upon which the Great Yin Empire has continued for thousands of years. If it cannot even withstand this level of resistance, then this country is doomed.
but......
Why didn't Yin Qianyu recall the other main legions?
"After suppressing the Dark Region, Yin Qianyu should currently have three major legions under her command: Cloud Dragon, Wind Tiger, and Undying."
"Sending back just two legions to rely on the city's protective formation should be enough to easily contend with three legions. Why are only ordinary garrison troops currently in charge of the formation?"
Luo Tian's eyes flickered slightly, and he vaguely considered that Yin Qianyu might have other plans.
Meanwhile, in the main tent of the seven allied armies, the seven legion commanders and seven envoys from various noble families gathered together, their eyes filled with smiles.
They were somewhat surprised that this rebellion would proceed so smoothly.
They were even prepared for the possibility that the royal family of the Great Yin Empire would receive advance notice, and then they would be engaged in a siege battle with the renowned Cloud Dragon and Wind Tiger legions beneath the walls of the capital.
However, the current process is going much more smoothly than they expected.
With the enemy at the gates, several legion commanders, observing the turmoil within the capital through communication devices, all exuded an air of absolute confidence.
The Iron Wall Legion Commander surveyed the battlefield with arrogance and spoke with satisfaction:
"In my opinion, the so-called Cloud Dragon and Wind Tiger Legions are nothing special. Our seven allied forces were able to bring our army to the capital in just a few hours."
Meanwhile, Yunlong Fenghu remained in the Dark Region, showing no intention of initiating a large-scale teleportation to return to the capital.
Therefore, it is clear that the so-called elite of the empire is nothing more than self-aggrandizement by the Great Yin royal family.
The Wind Spirit Legion Commander nodded repeatedly and said:
"That's absolutely right. After all, the only things the Great Yin royal family can hold in their hands are the Cloud Dragon and Wind Tiger legions, so they can only boast about these two legions."
If they were to actually fight, the outcome would be uncertain.
With a bloodthirsty smile on his face, the commander of the Iron Wall Legion spoke arrogantly.
"The Imperial Capital's defensive array is incredibly sturdy, but such a large array requires a great deal of maintenance. Yin Qianyu has cleansed out most of our people several times, but some key figures have still been left behind."
I have already arranged a time. Once the protective array is in danger, we can launch a massive attack and sweep through the capital's protective array.
By then, all talk of imperial elites and true god-level powerhouses will be nothing but empty words!
"The affair between that princess and the regent is notorious. If I were the first to rush into the palace, I wonder if I'd have a chance..."
"Speak carefully! Speak carefully!"
Inside the main tent, a murmur of discussion arose, as several legion commanders seemed to already envision the scene of the capital being breached.
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.
"What should we do with this city-protecting formation?"
If we cannot break through the city's defensive formation, our allied forces will be in grave danger once the royal reinforcements arrive!
The speaker was an envoy of Grand Duke Cangye, and at this moment he had a furrowed brow and a slightly worried expression.
The legion commanders exchanged glances, chuckled, and casually began to speak:
"Does the envoy know how large the defensive array of the capital is?"
The Grand Duke Cangye's envoy frowned slightly and asked, "Within a radius of one hundred li?"
"Does the envoy know how many people are needed to maintain such a massive protective array?"
After a slight pause, the Iron Wall Legion Commander answered himself, "A full 100,000 men are needed!"
"And these 100,000 people, apart from the court mages who maintain the core of the great formation, are mostly from the military."
These individuals underwent years of screening and testing to secure their positions within the capital's defensive array, and forty percent of them come from our ten legions.
"The Iron Wall Group alone has more than three thousand members."
These people might not be able to directly disable the protective array, but weakening it at certain key points and creating vulnerabilities is a piece of cake.
The envoy's eyes lit up, but he still had doubts in his heart, saying, "This kind of thing shouldn't be able to be hidden from that princess."
The messenger was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
"Why keep it a secret? That princess has only been in power for a few months, while these protectors need years of experience to get involved."
If internal cleansing is chosen, even the capital's protective array may not be able to be deployed.
Besides, who can say for sure whether one of our people is among the other 60%?
After saying this, the seven legion commanders burst into excited laughter, as if the outcome of the battle was already decided.
The other envoys exchanged glances amidst the enthusiastic atmosphere, all of them breaking into smiles.
Xie An, the commander of the Shaking Mountain Legion, suddenly stopped smiling and spoke with his eyes slightly narrowed.
"The time has come!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a violent explosion suddenly came from the direction of the capital's protective array. Several tall towers in the capital collapsed with a crash, and the protective array developed a weak link in that instant.
Although it was only for a moment, the allied forces of the seven legions still seized the opportunity and tore open a large gap amidst the bombardment of the giant cannons.
"it is good!"
Upon witnessing this scene, Xie An couldn't help but clap his hands in admiration.
With the current defensive strength of the capital, it is absolutely impossible to stop the allied forces from entering the city.
The Iron Wall Legion Commander nodded slightly, then looked at the envoys with a smile.
"Now we'll see what powerful divine force Her Majesty the Daughter of the Abyss can unleash."
"With powerful divine force supporting us, defeating the enemy will be a piece of cake!"
"Before Her Majesty the Daughter of the Abyss, the Regent is nothing but a clay chicken and a dog!"
Just as the legion commander and the envoys were exchanging pleasantries, in a corner of the main tent, the North Wind Clan envoy, his face deathly pale, clicked on the communicator, attempting to send a message to the North Wind Clan's leader.
However, amidst a long string of chat logs, there was only a string of red exclamation marks.
You have been blacklisted!
Chapter 218 Dimensional Shattering! (Two-in-One)
A torrent of steel, mixed with enormous alien beasts, crashed into the capital's defensive array with the force of an army.
The earth-shattering explosion resounded throughout the battlefield, shattering the capital's defensive formation, which had been deliberately exposed by the traitor.
Subsequently, a large number of warships began to pour into the capital's defensive array, and deafening battle cries erupted in one corner of the city wall.
Even without the Cloud Dragon and Wind Tiger legions stationed there, relying on the great formation, even ordinary legions are now qualified to barely compete with these imperial elites.
Under the extraordinary formation connecting the capital cities, all enemy troops that entered the capital's territory were weakened at the extraordinary level, but this still could not stop the fierce attack.
A demigod general from the Ironwall Legion smashed a corner of the formation that was already on the verge of collapse with a single punch, his eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty light.
He looked at the torrent of steel behind him and shouted angrily.
"Break through the capital and lift the ban for three days!"
"The noble families in the capital are not to be trifled with, but you can have them killed at your will!"
Nothing is more tempting than blood and power, and upon hearing this, a bloodthirsty glint appeared in the eyes of the soldiers of the seven allied legions.
Legion Arcane: Bloodlust Aura!
The soldiers, their eyes bloodshot, charged through the defenses despite the strain on their armor, storming into the low-lying bungalows, their steel bodies ruthlessly destroying the houses.
The streets were filled with cries of agony as people scrambled to escape the collapsed city, but they could not escape the ravages of the artillery fire. Blood and severed limbs instantly covered the entire street.
Stimulated by the bloodshed and wails, the glow of the bloodthirsty aura grew increasingly eerie and terrifying, and soldiers, like tireless killing machines, stormed into the poorly defended residential area.
Although many superhumans in the capital still offered their assistance, how could the flesh and blood of ordinary superhumans withstand the torrent of steel?
In that battlefield of carnage, only a few manors protected by extraordinary formations and noble insignia were able to escape unscathed.
In the manor sheltered from the steel torrent, nobles, holding red wine, watched the carnage unfold before them with unbridled gusto.
In their view, the fact that the great nobles had finally taken action against the royal family was undoubtedly a cause for celebration.
"Kill! It would be best to kill all these unruly scum!"
"Didn't Yin Qianyu want to support these commoners to fight against the nobles? This is the price the commoners paid!"
A chilling laugh came from the mouth of a stout nobleman who stood atop the manor's tower, looking down at the slaughtering legion with a savage gaze. His narrowed eyes were filled with brutality.
But at that moment, a golden light flashed, and a figure silently appeared inside the tower.
