Chapter 899 Integration of Nanling

On June 12, 775 in Terra, the empire released many photos and news reports of Flameland using demonic technology, officially announcing to the entire Terra continent that Flameland used taboo technology and committed vile anti-human acts in the western border of the empire. act.

To this, Feiyan responded that what they used was not simple demon technology, but a man-made demon technology that uses the human heart to control the power of demonsthey have found the basic law of demon generation, and they can completely destroy demons with demons.

As for anti-human acts, they believe that after ten years of war preparations in the Western Territory, there are no civilians that have nothing to do with the war, and those who should be relocated have all gone. It is absolutely impossible for ordinary civilians who have stayed in the Western Territory so far. They are the absolute supporters and reserves of the imperial war, they are just the reserve army to destroy the empire.

Although this kind of shameless statement is very shameless, they didn't intend to persuade other people, but just to ensure their own righteousness.

As for the nobles in Nanling, after encountering the terrifying Flying Flame Land raid, they didn't have the energy to care about those public opinions.

Because, there is an Earl of Silver Peak who may be more terrifying than Flameland, watching them.

On June 15, two weeks after the Nanling attack, Nanling declared that it had entered a full-scale war mode, and in order to prevent a second raid that was so tragic and damaged so much, the Governor of the Imperial Nanling Province, Marquis of Barton, Announced that all the nobles in Nanling will be connected to the grid for management.

This is a very reasonable request. After all, if your side is not monolithic, it means that the enemy can infiltrate and mix sand at will. As soon as the man-made demon technology is made public, anyone with a brain knows that if there is no corresponding defense technology, the enemy can Feel free to dig into your own core management.

But even so.

There are still many imperial nobles who are unwilling to manage online.

"Listen, I will never join your **** networking system!"

Baron Issa was very angry at the engineering team led by Xiahui who came to lay the terminal signal transmitter and cables. He violently expelled the engineering team led by Xiahui, and even caused death and injury.

Not only that, he also said that if Ian's people dare to come to him, he will never be soft-hearted and invade his territory without authorization, and he has the right to kill everyone.

Such people are not uncommon in Nanling.

Even if it is just a baron, he is still the emperor in his own territory. Except for the necessary taxes accounted for by the empire and the aristocratic laws of the empire, the baron is free to do whatever he wants in his own territory.

Especially in places like Nanling, the popularization and observance of noble laws are impossible. The nobles here have long been used to freedom.

For no reason, there is one more person in charge of me. If the other party is strong, then it's fine to swallow it. After all, what the strong say is justified. How cruel, their opposition is meaningless.

But, the most abominable thing is this 'networking'.

Up to now, after Yinfeng led a large-scale publicity that his side did not suffer any losses in the attack of Feiyandi, and captured several crucial spies, all the Nanling nobles knew that Ian relied on the so-called 'Network' to monitor everyone's.

Even the spies in Flameland can monitor it, so wouldn't they be even more secretive?

No, if you want to oppose it, you must oppose it!

Otherwise, wouldn't Ian have seen all of his private smuggling, breaking the law, offering sacrifices, secretly colluding with Fei Yandi, and other possibly even more terrifying acts? !

And asking them not to do those things is worse than killing them.

However, those nobles who are relatively close to the Yinfeng collar do not have the right to refuse even if they don't want to connect to the grid. All covered.

But remote nobles like Baron Issa who are located next to the golden plain, they don't need to give Ian any face, and they just refuse if they don't want to connect to the Internet. The order of the Marquis of Barton can also be delayed by various methods, such as It is said that it is necessary to investigate the construction site of the base station, or that the base station has a poisonous effect on the local residents, or it may even be destroyed after it is built directly. The question is whether it is a natural disaster or a flying flame.

"These Silver Peak people are getting more and more excessive."

After driving away Ian's engineering team, Baron Issa returned to his castle. His face was ashen, and he looked at the city that had been blown out of a big hole. He had no other thoughts except gnashing his teeth: "This group of damned The Feiyan people not only failed to destroy the prophet's territory, but blew up my city!"

The Barony of Issa mainly produces various agricultural tools. It is adjacent to the Golden Plain, and there are many high-quality ore veins. The related agricultural tool workshops and various weapons are considered excellent.

However, the small handicraft workshop faced Yinfengling's industrialized production and brand-new metal refining techniques, and various next-generation agricultural tools with new concepts, but there was only one result.

That is to be completely crushed!

Lost almost all of the market share, and the result of asking Yinfeng Ling is "We can help you build a factory, but you have to join our system." This is almost the same as an annexation. How can Baron Issa have a good impression of Ian? ?

As a result, before Baron Issa could think of any way to regain his financial resources, the network led by Yinfeng was about to be laid again.

"Now I have driven away a group of people, but how many times can I drive away? Flameland will definitely continue to invade at that time, but at worst, I will move to Nauman City to take refuge. If you have the ability, you, Silver Peak, will guard it for me." !"

With such thoughts in mind, he fell asleep with resentment and anger.

Immediately afterwards, the next day, it was no longer the engineering team led by Yinfeng who came to the gate of Issa.

Instead, Qingchao led the team, and Yinfeng led the exoskeleton unit "Steel Feather".

Ian doesn't trust humanshe doesn't trust human perception.

Human vision, smell and hearing are extremely easy to be distorted and tampered with, especially in this world there are many psionic powers that directly target the spiritual will, not to mention that the demon technology in Feiyan is so advanced that it wants to invade a person's thinking It's just too simple.

So, let's use machines to help.

The increase in stamina, strength and defense brought by the exoskeleton armor is secondary. The most important thing is that people inside the armor do not need to contact the outside world, but use the indirect screen to perceive the world.

Everything is data, and it is the safety perception screened by the Heart of Terra, and Steel Feather also has a certain jet jumping ability, which can cross extremely complex battlefields.

In short, this is the elite armed force under Ian's direct control.

Then, why did this elite armed force appear in front of me?

Baron Issa's brain was a little hypoxic, and he didn't understand the situation.

But Qingchao is very clear.

"kill!"

Without any nonsense, the swordsman drew his sword and slashed at Baron Issa like lightningboth at the second energy level. He has practiced meditation and his swordsmanship has been honed to the limit. Ian's evaluation for him is that five swords can solve the problem. other side.

But Qingchao felt that his lord really underestimated him... When one party came prepared for a surprise attack and was wearing exoskeleton armor, the other party was at a loss and didn't know what happened.

Only one sword is needed!

Faced with Baron Issa's hastily slashed the sword of the wind, Qing Chao flashed the sword in his hand, and a stream of azure source quality light delicately dismembered Baron Issa's offensive. Cut to the crotch, dividing the person obliquely into two halves.

Of course, Baron Issa is not really weak. Even if his sword energy was separated by Qing Chao, the aftermath still hit Qing Chao's shouldersbut the defensive power of the exoskeleton armor plus Qing Chao's own body protection essence, Let him take this almost life-changing blow almost without injury.

he died.

"Kill everyone in the castle."

The kind and optimistic swordsman who is usually kind and optimistic in front of everyone, after killing Baron Issa, was extremely indifferent. He swung his sword and wiped off the blood on the sword: "Then blow up the whole castle and pretend to be flying Flame attack."

Steelfeather troops faithfully carry out orders.

There was a loud roar, and after two weeks, Issa collar once again ushered in a grand fireworks explosion.

"Will there be any trouble in this way?"

In the lord's castle, when Scott reported on today's base station construction work, he asked with some concern: "Baron Isa refused our network operation yesterday, and he died todayeveryone knows that we did it."

"This is what I'm here for."

Yi raised his eyes and looked at his supervisor. He patiently explained: "You may be able to understand some political and popular matters, but you don't really understand the world of sublimators."

"Now, the demon legion in Feiyandi has cut off the road from the western region and Nanling to the imperial capital. Although Nanling is isolated and helpless at this time, it is also as high as the sky and the emperor is far awayno one can point out on the spot that we did it, so wait until In two months, no one will care about a baron's death."

"Even if someone in the imperial capital wants to target me and make a point of this matter, they will not have evidence. As for the Marquis of Barton who may have evidence, he will not speak in this regard... and if it is delayed a little longer, then I might be at the fourth energy level."

"At that time, it will be Baron Issa who will kill himself and have nothing to do with me."

Scott nodded again and again, indicating that he understood, and Ian looked at the report in his hand with emotion: "The Internet connection rate exceeds 91%. Just kill, there are not so many intrigues and conspiracies at all."

"It's so simple, just look at the world of power... this chaotic world of total war."

Ian actually didn't really want to use such a brutal and simple method. With his wisdom, he could naturally come up with a better way to kill chickens and monkeys.

However, Baron Issa dared to attack his peoplethis signal is very dangerous, which means that the Nanling nobles are indeed too brave. They really dare to attack. Didn't Ian think that Ian would fight back?

In order to prevent more people from looking at the example of Baron Issa against him, Ian decided to send Qing Chao to kill him as soon as he knew the news. If it wasn't for the veiled admonition by the Marquis of Barton, saying that this kind of person would be killed if he killed him, but don't make it too public, Ian didn't even intend to blow up his castle, but directly hung the body on the castle.

The question was done by the demon Feiyan. What, who is not convinced?

Of course, no one dares to refuse.

Soon, on the second day, all the 10% diehard nobles who had been biting their tongues tightly and refused to give in to the Internet all let go. Ian even received four extremely sincere letters of apology. It's probably "I admit it, you have a lot of adults, and you have passed the little ones as farts." "From now on, you are the big brother of Nanling. If you say we face west, we will never face east"... and so on.

"Look."

Ian directly showed off the letter of apology in his hand to Scott: "It is said that the Nanling people can't be killed, and it is not useless to reason with them, but it is true that physics is the most useful."

At this point, when the Western Territory was in full swing, and Feiyandibing Peak was getting closer to Nanling, the initial base station network was built based on the noble territories of the major empires in Nanling.

Not only that, but in the name of "special vaccine against biological warfare against Feiyan", Ian began to target other imperial nobles and began to popularize "artificial souls".

It's just that Yinfeng is a territory, and it's too slow to accumulate primitive souls for the heart of Terra. To be honest, Ian is also a bit reluctant to let the people on his side be hurt. The number of deaths will definitely be very small, which is obviously not good for the accumulation of souls in the Heart of Terra.

That being the case, it is better to spread and popularize artificial souls directly. I don't die here, but people will always die in wars. At that time, it will not only save the souls of the people in Nanling, but also enrich the reserves of Terra's heart. The best of both worlds, why not do it ?

Not only that... Under Ian's signal, the medical troops under the Chongling Sect began to conduct free consultations, treat the wounded, and rescue refugees in major hard-hit areas.

Chongling Sect once again started to form a "land reclamation group" to collect people and send them to the barren forest and swamp in the northwest of the Baisen Mountains for development.

The living conditions there may not be worse than those in other territories, not to mention the convenient food supply in Yinfeng Territory, so the applicants are enthusiastic.

The entire South Ridge was affected by the disaster, but Ian was fullthis was not accidental, but the benefits brought about by the good performance of the protection circle when it was attacked.

Who wouldn't want to live in a safe city? Who doesn't want their lord to be a prophet who can foresee disaster?

Although the foundation stone laying ceremony of the Holy Land of Chongling Sect did not come to a successful conclusion, the far-reaching impact it brought has been bringing intangible but expensive publicity benefits to Ian.

Of course, among the refugees who applied to join the Chongling Sect pioneer group, there were indeed spies.

They were quickly arrested and raised, and then executed publicly under Ian's arrangementnot in Yinfeng, but in Nanling.

Because the Yinfeng leader didn't do any harm, they were protected so well that they didn't have any anger towards these spies. It's a pity that they were killed in the Yinfeng leader, and they won't gain prestige and influence.

The itinerant public trial, on the contrary, can gain the hearts of the people.

Everything was exactly as Ian predictedFlying Flameland's side accelerated to attack him, intending to flatten him before he developed as a prophet...but it indirectly led to Ian quickly taking over the power of Nanling, not only relying on Feiyan Yandi's power built a whole base station network, and even won the hearts of the people.

"Wait, isn't this too similar?!"

Thinking of this, Ian suddenly thought of something, and he immediately got a news report from the imperial capital from Isengard through his relationship.

Then, he discovered to his astonishment that the imperial capital had done the same thing as him!

In the recent period, to be precise, when Feiyandi announced the launch of a full-scale attack, the Northland and Eastern Provinces also encountered 'raids' and various 'sabotage operations'.

The reason why the quotation marks are used is because Ian can tell at a glance that it is definitely not the case of Feiyandi, and it was done by people from Junlingbao and Cangtianwangting!

Junling Fort doesn't have that strength, at most they have fought back and forth with the nobles of the Northland, and they have the power to defend but not the ability to advance.

And the Royal Court of Heaven is also facing the enemy just like the empire, and there is no precedent for planning in this regard, so how could it be possible to carry out such an attack.

Even so, the empire was still destroyed by the towers and alchemy workshops of several main cities, causing quite severe casualties.

The people of the empire are angrynot only that, the imperial capital also took advantage of the situation to announce something similar to what Ian did... They are also popularizing terminal base stations and starting to force every territory to be connected to the Internet!

Although their networking does not have the heart of Terra, it only increases the convenience of communication and builds base stations in various places, but this attitude and policy are intentional no matter how you look at it!

However, in the face of Ian Yinfeng, the small nobles of Nanling might dare to resist one or two, but in the face of the imperial central noble group headed by the royal family, the local nobles could kneel and lick when they heard the order. Under the oppression of the war, they There is no right to decline or procrastinate at all.

This is a forced reform... internal reform with the help of external pressure!

"Axel... In this respect, he is better than his father Inaiga II..."

Watching the news, Ian murmured to himself: "If Inaiga II dared to blow up the checkpoints of his own country, and then announced that it was done by the enemy, and then immediately invaded the enemy's territory brazenly, and declared himself a victim, under the oppression of the war, Carry out social reform... Maybe it will really work?"

In fact, it can't be done. Because the aristocratic class of the empire at that time was the old generation of nobles, not the new aristocratic class that had been slaughtered by Hilliard and Axel once. They joined forces to fight against the imperial power, at least they could ruin the affairs of Inaiga II.

Moreover, even a war may not make them really forced to obey the orders of the central government...they may even surrender!

Still have to kill.

"It seems that Axel is indeed prepared..."

When he came back to his senses, Ian was quite emotional: "These two months, now one and a half months, is the time for the empire to accelerate internal reformsso one and a half months later, the empire will strike back."

"The Defender lives up to his reputation...he really has some skills."

But this is something that will happen later. Next, Ian asked Scott to pay attention to the food issue, and contacted the Marquis of Barton and Viscount Grant, asking the South Sea Fleet to protect the trade route of Canaan Moore.

After all, no matter what the purpose of Flameland is, at least at this time, their invasion will affect the agricultural production in Nanlingeven with the promotion of Ian, agricultural buildings have begun to spread in Nanling, but they have not yet completely Satisfy the grain needed by Nanling.

In order to avoid the second food disaster, we must make reserves in the first place.

And just as Ian was communicating with Viscount Grant on networking and 'vaccine popularization' related issues, he suddenly got a piece of good news.

During the attack half a month ago, he turned into a giant of light and stopped the airship from falling into the wreckage. Adbert, who was unconscious after the crash, finally woke up today.
