The envoy of the Bloody Empire soon arrived at the capital of the Fallen Angel Empire.
Unexpectedly, the envoy only brought 2 words, which were the original words of Raizen the Great – "surrender"!
This was not a humiliating treaty like ceding land or even reparations, but a real ultimatum of a subjugated empire.
Such conditions were impossible for the empress, ministers, and even the people of the Fallen Angel Empire to accept.
After the envoy relayed Raizen's original words, he "explained" a few more words. The Bloody Empire and the Fallen Angel Empire originally had an alliance agreement, but it was signed by Raizen the Great and Regent Obsidian. Now that Obsidian's regime was overthrown by a "rebel", the alliance was automatically invalid. Jía could only surrender. If she refused, the Fallen Angel Empire would be destroyed, and the Lucifer Royal Family would also be exterminated.
This kind of provocation and threat with almost no leeway made the entire Fallen Angel Empire angry. Especially Raizen's rebellious behavior of replacing Jía's nature as "non-governmental armed force" was tantamount to not recognizing Jía, the empress who had been recognized by the Sword of Fallen Angel. If even this kind of clause could be tolerated, then the dignity and cohesion of the empire would all be gone. Therefore, Jía did not hesitate and directly drove the envoy out of the capital.
In fact, the so-called envoy was just a formality. Everyone could see that the real purpose of this Bloody Empire was very clear, which was war.
It's really war!
Lunters, who seemed to be confident that Raizen was just bluffing, was speechless. Oliver, Stiller and others were also shocked, but the most important thing now was not to reflect or be ashamed, but to face the upcoming huge test.
Sure enough, after the Bloody Empire envoy was expelled from the capital of the Fallen Angel Empire, the army gathered in the Iron Fist Estate began to move immediately. The target was the Warlock Fortress where General George was stationed. This made everyone in the Fallen Angel Empire tense up.
"According to the reliable intelligence of the secret intelligence department, the Bloody Empire has invested at least 6 million troops in the Iron Fist Estate this time, and they are all elites."
Jía's words shocked all the ministers, and there was a sudden commotion.
"How can there be 6 million elites! Where did the Blood Fiends get so many troops? Didn't Achilles and Edmund just start a civil war? Is this information reliable? "
"If there are really so many troops, how can the Warlock Fortress withstand it?"
Jía sighed. "Unfortunately, this information has been repeatedly confirmed. What Aleus and Edmund could mobilize previously was just the superficial power of the Bloody Empire. These are the real trump cards that Raizen has been operating for many years. "
Although after the death of Midnight Sun, Raizen joined the 3-nation alliance agreement under Catherine's mediation, he had never stopped the expansion of his military power over the years, whether on the surface or in the dark. He believed that the Shadow Empire was the same. Only when he became stronger could he be truly safe. Unfortunately, the Fallen Angel Empire had been embroiled in internal strife over the years. Compared to the other two empires, it was almost inactive.
Although it did not rule out the hidden hands of the two empires, and the erosion of external forces such as the Bloodfall, Obsidian's talent was indeed mediocre. Whether it was economy or military, its development speed was far behind the other two empires. In order to consolidate his rule, this regent, who was originally unjustifiable to ascend the throne, spent most of his energy on suppressing dissidents and internal friction. Especially in the war to conquer the Dark Moon, the power of the entire empire was greatly depleted, and most of the elites were lost. Others were advancing, but he was regressing. This disadvantage was no longer as simple as 2 minus 1 equals 1.
If it weren't for the rapid economic development of the Dark Moon and the gradual recovery of its military power after Jía came to power, there was no room to resist the Bloody Empire at present. The question was, could they really "resist" this time?
This time, it was completely different from the Shadow Empire's army pressure last time. Raizen was really sending troops. It seemed that the Bloody Empire had made up his mind to reveal the fangs that had been hidden for many years.
"This battle is inevitable. What we need now is not to question the number and strength of the enemy, but how to face the enemy!" Sarandi said, "If the Bloody Empire is really going all out in this battle, then Raizen has more than 6 million elites in his hands, and there are still many high-level powerhouses!"
"What about Raizen himself?" Oliver suddenly asked a question that made everyone a little scared. Will the Demon Realm's top powerhouse lead the army personally?
Jía said, "According to the current intelligence, Raizen seems to be in the capital, and there is no tendency to lead the army personally for the time being. According to the analysis, it should be to guard against the Shadow Empire … Speaking of the Shadow Empire, there is another bad news. Catherine used the military exercise as an excuse to hoard a large number of troops in the Bloody Vine Flower Estate and the Saig Estate. The target should be Tekula Fortress, Red Spirit Estate or Dark Moon Estate. This time, it is very likely that we will face a 2-front battle. "
This bad news, which happened to rain on a rainy night, caused many people to panic. In fact, the relationship between countries had always been like this. The so-called "friendship" was only built on the basis of interests. Once interests were exceeded, the mask of friendship could be torn off at any time.
If the Shadow Empire was weak, as long as it could get enough benefits, the Fallen Angel Empire would also not hesitate to add insult to injury.
Then the current situation had become that the Fallen Angel Empire not only had to fight against the almost invincible enemy, the Bloody Empire, but they also had to deal with the "allies" who stabbed them in the back.
Before this battle even started, they were already doomed to lose.
Perhaps this was a war that would change the pattern of the Demon Realm. It was unknown who would be the final winner between the powerful Bloody Empire and the low-key Shadow Empire, but there was no doubt that no matter who won or lost, the Fallen Angel Empire would be the first to be eliminated.
"Second General Gerant has fully activated the defense of Tekula Fortress. The Red Spirit Lord Josh and the Dark Moon Lord Athena are also actively deploying troops for defense, but as a result, the forces that we can allocate to the White Feather Estate are greatly reduced."
Shea still seemed very calm. As a qualified ruler of the empire, she couldn't panic even in times of crisis. At least on the surface, she couldn't panic. Otherwise, the people below would really panic, "The situation is extremely unfavorable for us. If we fight head-on, we can't resist one opponent alone, let alone being attacked from both sides. At present, in addition to resisting desperately with all the power of the empire, the only way is to unite with the Shadow Empire to fight against the Bloody Empire. "
"This is the best opportunity to annex. How can the Shadow Empress, the wisest person in the Demon Realm, agree?" The Right Prime Minister Stiller shook her head, "Moreover, Raizen the Great also sent an envoy in advance. They must have discussed how to divide our empire."
"In any case, this is a hope. We must not give up … Due to the urgency of the situation, my husband, Aguile, is already on the way to the Shadow Empire." Jía stood up from the throne with an indomitable firmness in her eyes, "The glory of the Sword of Fallen Angel will guide us to fight to the end. I will personally go to the Warlock Fortress to supervise the battle. Jía. Lucifer swears to live and die with the empire!"
Warlock Fortress.
The sky was cloudy.
General George had received the news that the reinforcements and logistics supplies led by the royal family's peak stage of the Demon Overlord, Disjaro, had arrived at the fortress, but his frown did not ease at all because he, the first general of the Fallen Angel Empire, would face an unprecedented severe test.
A warm hand reached over and held the palm behind his back. Even with his eyes closed, Idu knew who the owner of this hand was.
"Gloria, how is the situation of the Bloody Empire Army?"
"The enemy is currently camping and gathering in front of Town Black Cloud. Counting the Blood Red Legion led by the first general, Gustav, who arrived this afternoon, the number of the enemy has exceeded 2 million. Although they have not attacked at present, the number is still increasing. All the residents of Town Black Cloud have evacuated, and all the magic hidden posts have been activated."
"The garrison of Warlock Fortress is 500,000, the capital's reinforcements are 300,000, and the White Feather Estate's army has 1.1 million. Although the number seems to be similar, the Bloody Empire's army is all elites that can fight against 10. Except for the garrison of Warlock Fortress who can compete with them, the capital's reinforcements or the White Feather Estate's army are much inferior. In a head-on battle, we will definitely lose. Moreover, this is only the enemy's vanguard. I didn't expect Raizen to be so determined to attack with all his might. This battle is probably the last battle in my life, you … "
"Don't say stupid things like asking me to leave." Madame Red Dragon snorted coldly, but her red pupils were filled with gentleness that was completely different from the usual coldness, "Remember that sentence back then? No matter what happens, we will always be together. "
George was silent for a while. He didn't speak, but he held the hand tightly in his palm.
"The new ordnance and equipment that Chen Rui asked people to send in batches are all in place. The defense of Warlock Fortress is much stronger than before. Even if Raizen comes in person, he can't break through for a while." Madame Red Dragon gently leaned on her husband's back, "As for Athena … you don't have to worry too much. Our daughter has grown up, and she has found a man who can protect her. Even if she really encounters any danger, Chen Rui is there, plus those Dragons, she can escape at the worst."
George nodded, "The Shadow Empire is different from the Bloody Empire, but it can't be underestimated either. I didn't expect my daughter and I will face the Demon Realm's top powerhouse and the Demon Realm's top sage respectively. However, the Dark Moon's power is not what it used to be, and there is a dangerous place like Walan Fortress. The Shadow Empire should not choose the Dark Moon as the first attack point. It is likely that their primary target will be the relatively weak Red Spirit Estate. If we can effectively withstand the attack of the Bloody Empire Army, the pressure on Athena will be relatively less psychologically and strategically … "
"General!" George's right-hand man, Francis, hurriedly reported, "The Bloody Empire Army has begun to break camp and advance forward!"
"Good! Order the entire army to prepare for battle! Let the so-called elites of the Bloody Empire see how indestructible the strongest fortress is our Warlock Fortress! For the empire, for Her Majesty Empress! "
George took a deep breath. His whole body was bursting with a strong fighting spirit. His powerful voice spread far away. From Madame Red Dragon and her right-hand man to the soldiers in the fortress, they were burning with a strong fighting spirit at the same time.
The first general looked at the dark clouds in the distant sky and added a sentence in his heart: And for you, my most beloved daughter!
