Di Jun didn't invite Devil King, Ling Sha King, Earth Disaster King, or Heaven Wrath King.
In fact, to some extent, the Demon Alliance and Na Xue weren't really a family.
Although the four demon kings expressed their intention to form an alliance with Princess Na Xue and expressed their willingness to form an alliance with the Vampire Demon Clan,
How could this relationship be described? It was like some domestic joint-venture companies.
Princess Na Xue was like a super powerful company, like Volkswagen. However, after she entered the country, she couldn't establish her own company due to some policy reasons. Therefore, she had to cooperate with domestic companies and establish a joint-venture company, which became FAW Volkswagen or SAIC Volkswagen.
It was destined to be an unequal cooperation. The other party had the technology and everything.
The Demon Alliance represented by the four Demon Kings had the intention to cooperate with Princess Na Xue, but they hadn't signed the contract yet.
Because they couldn't reach an agreement on some key points.
For example, the four Demon Kings wanted Princess Na Xue to kiss her instead of Di Jun. In their opinion, after Princess Na Xue went to the southern wilderness, the four Demon Kings' status would be slightly higher than Di Jun's. At least, they would be on par.
However, Princess Na Xue didn't agree. She insisted that Di Jun kiss the four Demon Kings and that Di Jun's status was half a level higher than the four Demon Kings.
Therefore, the two sides were in a stalemate.
Of course, the four Demon Kings and Princess Na Xue were united on the matter of killing Lan Ling.
The four Demon Kings could surrender to Devil King, Princess Tigné, and Princess Na Xue, but they couldn't surrender to Lan Ling.
Why?
It was too complicated. First of all, Lan Ling didn't know how to behave. He had slapped the Demon Kings in the face many times and acted recklessly. He had killed Sky Demon King, Blood Demon King, and Blue Demon King, and forced Devil King to abdicate. He was also a complete lunatic, wiping people off the face of the world at the drop of a hat.
Of course, the most important thing was … it was better to be a friend than a servant.
The Four Great Demon Kings did not know that Lan Ling was the Demon Emperor. They only thought that Lan Ling was a Demon King Bloodline Mutant. Moreover, he was once the chieftain of a small tribe in the Rakshasa race's territory. At the very most, he only became the Flag Master of the Demon Flame Demon Flag because of the Young Rakshasa King Tang's support.
Of course, if they knew that Lan Ling was the Demon Emperor, they would kill him even more. No matter if he was siding with Na Xue or the Heaven Killing King, they were still rulers and collaborators. But if they follow you, His Majesty Demon Emperor, then they would be kowtowing worms, slaves!
The Young Rakshasa King did not care about his status and dignity. He actually knelt down and pledged his loyalty to his former servant, Lan Ling. He was shameless, but the Four Great Demon Kings were.
Even though Di Ning did not invite the Four Great Demon Kings, the Four Great Demon Kings were more determined to destroy Lan Ling than Di Ning.
Therefore, the Four Great Demon Kings gathered a million-strong aerial army and flew towards the Sky Demon City. They were going to participate in the war to destroy the Balrog Empire.
Unfortunately, time was too tight. They could only send the aerial army. Otherwise, the Four Great Demon Kings would be able to gather a million-strong army to participate in the war to destroy the Balrog Empire.
Their backbones had been broken by the Heaven Killing King, but they were still very courageous when they fought against Lan Ling.
Moreover, it was a crucial moment when they were in a stalemate with Princess Na Xue. They had to show their strength and show their muscles appropriately. This was to tell Na Xue that they had strength too. Therefore, they could not be too unequal in terms of cooperation. They had to fight for a good position in the future when the Vampire Demon Alliance was established.
…
The Devil King was the most proactive in the war to destroy the Balrog Empire.
In order to show his absolute hatred and determination to destroy Lan Ling, the Devil King gathered a four-million-strong army and marched towards the Black Demon City from the land.
He only had one goal, which was to share the credit of destroying the Balrog Empire with Di Ming.
Di Ming led his army to attack the Fire Demon City from the east, while the Devil King led his four-million-strong army to attack the Black Demon City from the west. This was a pincer attack from both the east and the west, destroying the Balrog Empire in one day.
Moreover, to the Devil King, destroying the Balrog Empire was equivalent to taking back his territory.
Although 15 days was a short time, fortunately, the Sky Demon City was very close to the Devil City.
In order to gather a four-million-strong army, the Devil King used almost everything he had. He transferred all of the two-million-strong army from the Devil King City's defense line. Not only that, but he also transferred another two-million-strong army from the northern defense line.
In this way, the northern defense line of the Heaven Killing Race was reduced by more than half. In the face of the Heaven Killing Race's powerful military force, this defense line was as vulnerable as a virgin. It was completely defenseless.
The Devil King had done this because, firstly, he hated Lan Ling and the Tang Empire to the extreme, as well as his determination to destroy the so-called Balrog Empire.
Secondly, the Heaven Killing King must have given him a secret message to reassure him so that he could gather the majority of his army to destroy the Balrog Empire without worry.
The Devil King even had a very, very scary fantasy!
You Ming was dead, the Tang Empire had rebelled, and the negotiations between Na Xue and Lan Ling had broken down.
However, in order to legitimately conquer the southern wilderness, Princess Na Xue had to get married.
Lan Ling was not getting married, the Tang Empire was not getting married, and You Ming was not getting married. Crown Prince Yun E was the best candidate. However, it was said that Crown Prince Yun E had been castrated, and it was done by Di Ming himself.
Left with no other choice, he … the Devil King was also not an option.
If Princess Na Xue wanted to rule the Demon Alliance, marrying a Demon King would be more suitable. Among the Four Great Demon Kings of the Demon Alliance, only the Devil King's wife was long gone. He was nominally single.
Of course, although the Devil King was old, his hair was white, and his skin was wrinkled. However, as long as he was hugged and kissed by Na Xue, not only would he have an immortal body, but he would also regain his youthful looks and become a handsome middle-aged man in his forties or fifties.
At that time, purely on the surface, he and Na Xue wouldn't be so unsuitable for each other.
Therefore, it was not impossible for him to marry Princess Na Xue, and it was not impossible for him to become the Emperor of the Demon Alliance.
Of course, after being betrayed by the Crown Prince, the Devil King's reputation was in shambles. However, as long as he destroyed the Balrog Empire, as long as he killed Lan Ling and the Tangs, wouldn't he regain his face and reputation?
It was with this ambition that the Devil King staked everything on one throw. He gathered four million troops and led them personally. They covered the sky as they marched toward Black Demon City. They were only two thousand kilometers away.
He wanted to bid farewell to Di Ming and share the credit of destroying the Balrog Empire!
Therefore, the 5.2 million troops surrounded Lan Ling's Balrog Empire.
The most powerful was Di Ming's army of close to 200,000 Blood-sucking Demons. They were seven to eight times the power of Lan Ling's Death Warriors and Golden Warriors.
Next, it was the four Great Demon Kings' army of a million aerial soldiers and the Devil King's main army of four million.
…
Currently, the Balrog Empire was in a premonition of a storm!
The air was so heavy that it was difficult to breathe. It was as if a single spark could cause an earth-shattering explosion.
For this war, the Balrog Empire, which was still in a frenzy of production and construction, fortified its walls and cleared its fields.
All the tribes, villages, farms, and barracks within the territory of the two major cities, Flame Demon City, and Black Demon City were emptied. They had all entered Flame Demon City. There were more than five million people in Black Demon City. It was simply crowded.
The construction of Zhongye City, Nanmu City, and Beining City hadn't been completed yet, but there were more than five million people in them.
In the entire Balrog Empire, apart from some remote areas, most of the population had entered the five major cities. At least there were city walls, Mirror Demon Kings, and countless troops to protect them.
As for the rest of the population, almost all of them had evacuated their villages and tribes. They entered various caves deep in the mountains and entered the territory of the native barbarians to live with them.
Fortunately, the Balrog Empire's unconditional contribution in the past two years had won the friendship of all the native barbarians.
Apart from the major cities, almost all the villages in the Balrog Empire were empty, even if there were crops in the fields and lush orchards.
This was a war that could destroy an empire.
In the past few years, everyone had their eyes on Lan Ling's Death Warriors, Golden Warriors, and Centaurs. The rest of the attention was on the Ghost Ray Corps.
It was as if the entire Balrog Empire only had less than a hundred thousand elites.
This made everyone forget that the Balrog Empire still had more than a million Rakshasa soldiers, more than five hundred thousand human soldiers, more than two hundred thousand magic leopards, more than five hundred thousand cavalry, more than a hundred and fifty thousand aerial soldiers, and more than seventy thousand crouching demons!
That's right, the most disgusting army in the world, the crouching demons, which Lan Ling had jokingly called the Violent Anus Demons, were also brought here by Lan Ling. However, they were placed in numerous caves by the sea to sleep soundly.
The Balrog Empire had a population of sixteen million and a military force of two million and six hundred thousand.
In addition, the Balrog Empire had gained the loyalty of the Demon Alliance. It had twenty thousand werewolf warriors, one hundred thousand wolf riders, and four hundred thousand demon soldiers.
In total, it had three million soldiers!
Before the arrival of the Goddess of Misfortune, Shui Hongshao, Lan Ling's mysterious energy laboratory had been progressing very slowly. However, the research on crystal energy was not completely fruitless.
In the past two years, the territory of the Balrog Empire had not experienced any wars.
However, the giant crossbows, crystal crossbows, giant catapults, and other war equipment had accumulated an astronomical number.
As for cannons, who knew how many thousands of them the Flame Demon Empire had already discarded and rebuilt.
As for explosives, they owned the entire empire and two million square kilometers of land. Therefore, they had an almost endless supply of saltpeter mines. The Balrog Empire had amassed an astronomical number of elite explosives.
In a high-level energy martial arts war, catapults, cannons, and explosives were all useless. However, in a conventional war, they could unleash a great deal of power.
This was a war for the fate of the nation.
…
After more than ten thousand Death Warriors worked day and night, the construction of the Pseudo-Hell Energy Towers in the five cities had been completed!
The two million strong army of the Balrog Empire had also stopped their crazy training and entered a period of silence before the war.
All the soldiers only did two things: close their eyes and rest, and sharpen their swords!
In the previous wars, the non-human races had thought of surrendering, betraying, and escaping.
But now, almost no one wanted to surrender. Even the captives from the Demonic Flag and the Blood Demon Flag only wanted to fight to the end.
This was because Lan Ling had given them incomparable glory. When the Demon Alliance was in a state of silence, it was Lan Ling who created a miracle and obtained a glorious victory.
It was Lan Ling who single-handedly erased the Fire Demon Mountain from the world and created the dignity of the Balrog Empire. This dignity belonged to everyone and needed everyone to protect it.
More importantly, the rapid development of the Balrog Empire had created countless glorious civilizations in a short two years. This had brought about earth-shattering changes to everyone's lives. This made all the people firmly believe that the Balrog Empire was advanced and represented the future.
Since they had entered civilization, it would be very difficult for them to return to the wilderness.
Therefore, this was a war to protect civilization.
They had to protect resplendent buildings, countless wheat fields, countless fish farms, countless pastures, countless salt fields, countless orchards, countless weaving factories, countless furniture cities, and mysterious energy laboratories.
In short, they had to protect everything. They had to protect the home of civilization.
…
Gou Li reported, "Master, the last Blood-sucking Demon Army is still 1,500 kilometers away from the Heavenly Demon City. The 200,000 Blood-sucking Demon Army from the Imperial Jun will be assembled tomorrow. The million-strong aerial army sent by the four Demon Kings has already been assembled. "
"The four-million-strong army led by the Rakshasa King is still 700 kilometers away from the Heavenly Demon City!"
The news kept coming!
But then, a very, very bad news came!
A mysterious aerial army of over 700,000 people had crossed the Rakshasa Race's northern defensive line and entered the Rakshasa Race's territory. However, they were not stopped by the Demon Alliance.
Finally, the Rakshasa King tore off his last shred of pretense and added one last chip to the war to destroy the Balrog Empire.
If he guessed correctly, the commander of this secret aerial army should be the Rakshasa Crown Prince, who had been greatly humiliated before.
In order to kill Lan Ling, the Rakshasa King and the Rakshasa Crown Prince had disregarded their pride. They had actually joined forces with the Blood-sucking Demon Tribe.
There was nothing more ridiculous than this in the world.
Moreover, the Rakshasa Race's northern defensive line seemed to be completely unaware of this. They allowed the 700,000 aerial army of the Rakshasa Race to enter the Rakshasa Race's territory.
The originally dangerous situation became even more frightening.
Originally, there was only one army from the Imperial Jun Race. Originally, the battlefield was only at the Flame Demon City.
But now, four armies had appeared and were attacking the Balrog Empire from all four directions.
Lan Ling's military strength could not even be described as stretched to make ends meet.
How should this war be fought?
How could Lan Ling's three-million-strong army defend the four directions?
