Summoner's Road to Hegemony

Chapter 276 The Sun Empire's Defeat

Although Qin Laiyin tried his best to defend the city, it still failed.

Lin Ruofeng walked on the ruined earth city wall, and all he saw were the corpses of soldiers, including those from the Sun Empire and those from the Sand Kingdom. These passionate young people will stay here forever.

Gently flicking the singularity lantern in his hand, Lin Ruofeng sighed silently,

"No matter you are enemies or comrades, no matter you are enemies or friends, you will live in the same place after death. Don't continue fighting in the lantern."

Tian Dan and Zhuge Fei, who were beside Lin Ruofeng, didn't know why, but felt that holding a lantern in his boss's hand was a bit out of harmony.

"Brother Feng, Qin Laiyin has been captured alive, you should go and have a look first."

Tian Dan couldn't help reminding.

"it is good"

Lin Ruofeng nodded. As the number of souls in the Singularity Lantern increased, the lantern collected souls much faster. All the souls of soldiers who died in the Tucheng siege were collected in the lantern.

In this battle, 20 Saudi soldiers died, and 10 soldiers from the Empire of the Sun died. It was a 2-1 battle loss, and Tucheng was almost bought back by Saudi soldiers with their lives.

Lin Ruofeng put away the singularity lantern and came to Qin Laiyin's side.

Qin Lain was wearing heavy armor, her gray hair was messy, and her face was blackened by the smoke.

Despite his embarrassment, his eyes were still piercing.

"Hehe, Lin Ruofeng, you won, why didn't you kill me, the old man?"

Lin Ruofeng drew out the serrated dagger and walked to Qin Laiyin. This made Qin Laiyin's original aura condense.
"Heh, you can kill or cut whatever you want, but you have to understand that I am the prince of the Sun Empire, so think carefully before you speak."

Lin Ruofeng didn't stab Qin Laiyin's heart with this saw-like dagger, but cut the rope that bound Qin Laiyin.

"You are this?"

Qin Laiyin didn't know why, so at first he thought that this young man was going to stab himself to death.

"Prince Qin, you are worrying too much. Although we are rivals, you are an opponent I admire. Facing my army of millions, you can persist to the end. I really admire you. This war is over. In the later period, I need you to say more nice things during negotiations.”

Lin Ruofeng was polite to Qin Laiyin, Qin Laiyin moved her numb arms,
"It's easy to say, easy to say, but I'm old, I don't know if our majesty will listen to what I say."

"I have wronged you during this time,"

Lin Ruofeng glanced at his personal guard Wang Er, who escorted Qin Laiyin down.

After Qin Laiyin was escorted down, only Lin Ruofeng and a few captains were left standing on the podium of the Tucheng city wall.

"Captain Cook, you have contributed to capturing the enemy commander alive, and this god-level defensive armor is your reward."

After Lin Ruofeng finished speaking, he took out Qin Rong's god-level armor from the space ring and handed it to Cook.

Cook excitedly stretched out his hands to catch the armor, knelt down on his knees, and said happily:
"More heads, the subordinates will do their best to serve Saudi Arabia and the head in the future."

Cook got the god-level armor, which made all the captains around jealous, and all eagerly pleaded with Lin Ruofeng:
"Regimental Commander, now Tucheng has been occupied, please allow me to expand the results of the battle and continue to recover the lost ground."

"Captain, please allow me to drive all the soldiers of the Sun Empire out of Saudi Arabia."

Except for Tian Dan, the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth captains all asked Lin Ruofeng for orders.

Lin Ruofeng nodded,
"The first brigade stays to clean up the mess, and you each lead your troops to expand the results of the battle and drive all the remnants of the Sun Empire out of Xiannan County, Sha Country."

After hearing this, several captains agreed in unison, quickly counted their men, and continued to attack the Sun Empire defense forces in various places.

Lin Ruofeng no longer led the army himself, but stayed in Tucheng with Tian Dan and Zhuge Fei, waiting for the right army to join forces.

In addition, Lin Ruofeng also knew that the main force of the Sun Empire's expeditionary force had been destroyed, and there was no longer any concern at the local level. These captains were fully capable of the recovery work.

Not long after, the messenger of the Right Route Army found Lin Ruofeng in the command room of Tucheng,
"Reporting to the head of the regiment, the right army has a great victory, and the 50-strong Sun Empire expeditionary force has been completely wiped out."

Lin Ruofeng was watching the Sun Empire's military secret report in the command room, but was interrupted by the orderly.

"Send an order to Wang Chao to join Tucheng as soon as possible. If he is slower, he will not be able to eat his bones."

The messenger was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly took the order and left.
About 2 hours later, the right army led by Wang Chao finally joined forces to Tucheng.

Wang Chao hurriedly came to the Tucheng command room. At this moment, Lin Ruofeng was standing in front of the wartime map in the Tucheng command room.

"Lin Ruofeng, the left army and the center army have already started to recover the lost ground?"

Wang Chao asked Lin Ruofeng as soon as he entered the door.

"Bold, did you call the name of the legion commander casually?"

Before Wang Chao could finish his sentence, Lin Ruofeng's personal guard, Wang Er, began to scold him.

Now Lin Ruofeng's prestige in the middle and left army is extremely high.

"Leader Lin, the general is asking for orders to recover the lost ground."

Wang Chao was bullied by Wang Eryi, and reluctantly begged Lin Ruofeng to salute.He knew that if Lin Ruofeng disagreed, he might lose his bones in this war.

"Hehe, you are coming later than I expected, commander-in-chief. I have granted your request. As for how much military merit you can get, that's up to you. The left army and the middle army have already set off for three hours."

Knowing that time was running out, Wang Chao didn't dare to waste any more, so he hurriedly bid farewell to Lin Ruofeng.

He wants to seize the time to expand his results again, but Wang Chao was still a little unconvinced when he left the door.

"It's because of the help of the central and left army that Lin Ruofeng was able to take down Tucheng so quickly. I can do it if it's me."

When Wang Chao walked out of the command room, Lin Ruofeng's personal guard Wang Er said shamelessly:

"This quasi-regiment leader doesn't look like a regiment leader at all, hehe, he is still in a hurry to earn merit, a guy who is holding back."

Lin Ruofeng stopped Wang Er's continued sarcasm,
"Okay, now report to His Majesty the Empress of Oasis City immediately, and wait for his next instructions."

Wang Er took the order and left.From Tucheng to Xiannan City, it took several hours to take the teleportation array to Oasis City. Although there were special messengers, he didn't dare to waste too much time.

Oasis City Palace Chamber.

Empress Evelyn was wearing a golden imperial robe and sat on a high throne. At this time, all the officials who were involved in the recovery battle were standing in the chamber.

Qian Rong is complaining to Evelyn:
"Your Majesty, the First Legion and the Second Legion are consuming too much supplies too quickly. If such unscrupulous consumption occurs, our treasury will not last long. The old minister suggests raising taxes to the people."

Before Qian Rong finished speaking, Zhuge Zhengxin stood up from his seat.
"Your Majesty, this tax increase is related to the national economy and the people's livelihood. The veteran thinks that the tax increase should not be done immediately, but a gradual process."

After the two ministers took the lead, other people in the parliament hall started buzzing discussions.
