Chapter 356: Chapter 356: Blowing the Horn of National Destruction

"Actions are certainly swift, are they trying to restrain us with this move? No, they must be feeling the pressure and so decided to form a strong alliance for now."

As Fang Jie was amassing his troops, he suddenly received a new message.

The Kingdom of Blue Sand and the New Moon Kingdom, two nations that had fought fiercely against each other, had unexpectedly announced their intent to enter into a marriage alliance.

Indeed, the third prince of the Blue Sand Kingdom had announced his plans to marry the fourth princess of the New Moon Kingdom. Just earlier, their battles had been fierce, to the extent that a little princess of the New Moon Kingdom had died on the battlefield. Now, it had unexpectedly turned into an alliance through marriage.

If they succeeded in uniting, it would indeed require careful consideration for anyone to face them.

However, even though the news had just been released, the processes wouldn’t be completed in less than a fortnight.

Fang Jie certainly didn’t want to watch as two nations united. Even if there were disputes between them, who knew if they wouldn’t indeed send troops to assist each other when the time came?

Fang Jie could still handle three old legendary experts now, but if three more were to join them, that would be uncertain.

"Speed it up then, we’re almost ready anyway, let’s start now."

Unfortunately, Fang Jie hadn’t established any affiliated territories in the desert since it was a bit too close.

Although the desert tunnels were quite convenient, they could only be used within the desert, with the Great Swamp lying on the other side. The roads available for passage in between were too narrow, making them somewhat insufficient.

Even so, if they could operate freely without concern of being discovered, the transportation speed would be much faster.

Following Fang Jie’s orders, numerous skeletons with their troops began their assault.

Starting from the Great Desert, five army fronts attacked simultaneously. Three headed toward the Southern and two toward the Northern, as a large part of the Blue Sand Kingdom lay in the North.

In reality, the part of the Blue Sand Kingdom that bordered the New Moon Kingdom was in the Southern.

Continuing further North, aside from some harsh terrain that was hard to traverse, it was Fang Jie’s own Northern Plateau.

This type of terrain was why the Blue Sand Kingdom couldn’t launch a successful attack, and the reason the Northern Plateau wasn’t under their control. However, none of these issues concerned the Blue Sand Kingdom at present.

The massive mobilization of troops shook the entire Blue Sand Kingdom.

That very day, all the garrison forces at the desert frontier completely collapsed.

They hadn’t anticipated that the undead would launch an attack so suddenly. The undead, who were believed to be nearly powerless, seemed likely to fail in their assault, and it appeared they couldn’t possibly mount any significant resistance.

The Blue Sand Kingdom couldn’t imagine that the undead would dare to take the offensive.

Caught off guard, the surrounding stationed troops collapsed in the first instance. Faced with Skeleton Flying Dragons soaring all over the sky, these forces held out for less than an hour before a total collapse ensued.

"What! You’re saying the undead have launched an attack? And they’re pushing towards us?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, according to the frontline intelligence, they could reach the vicinity of our Royal Capital in three days at most."

The King’s face turned grim, and so did those of the other ministers.

"Quickly tell me, what’s their troop strength like, especially their high-end troop strength?"

"We’ve completely lost contact with the North, blocked off by those undead. We don’t know the situation there, but in the South, the undead have three army corps moving together, with at least twenty million troops."

"Only twenty million? That number shouldn’t be a problem," everyone sighed a breath of relief upon hearing this number.

Over this prolonged period of collaboration with the undead, they had significantly improved their methods of combating them.

"No, although there are only twenty million troops, we don’t know how many more are coming. And amongst these twenty million, more than half are of Black Iron level."

Black Iron level was entirely different from Apprentice Level. A small number wasn’t a concern, but when it reached tens of millions, that changed things entirely. Not to mention, more massive forces were still amassing.

Fang Jie continued to send up ordinary troops through fission. Initially believed to be useless, the Apprentice Level troops now seemed quite significant, as one way to obtain a Legend Certificate was via the scale of war.

Regardless of whether the opposition could reach it, he first had to create it on his end.

Fang Jie had Fang Hao carry the Legend Certificate, constantly with the troops, ready to conduct checks anytime to confirm others’ qualifications. Once it was confirmed someone had obtained the Legend Certificate, they would immediately send another person to take over.

As for the heroes who had been swapped out, they wouldn’t face their challenges right away. To increase the chances of success and enhance potential, Fang Jie had these heroes undergo various training and improvements.

Fortunately, these heroes knew how to advance themselves, with everyone else providing unwavering assistance.

If they still failed in the end, it really would be down to bad luck.

The large army moved Southward with ease, encountering no significant resistance. Although the Blue Sand Kingdom had continuously been amassing forces, they had been gathering towards the direction of the Royal Capital.

Even when there were terrains suitable for ambushes along the way, they hadn’t utilized them.

There was no helping it; the enemy’s strength was too great and their numbers too overwhelming—simply not something that could be stopped with mere terrain advantages.

Rather than sending them to their deaths, it was better to keep them in the Royal Capital for a decisive battle against the enemy.

At the same time, the New Moon Kingdom also received a letter of assistance from the Blue Sand Kingdom. However, at this time, the people of the New Moon Kingdom had no intention to help. Instead, even the troops initially prepared for the fourth princess had slowed their pace.

"Is this somewhat inappropriate? It could potentially impact our reputation and credibility with other nations."

"How could it? We’ve just endured a massive battle and are still recuperating—it’s only normal that we don’t have the strength to send any aid. If the Blue Sand Kingdom can’t even handle this, then it’s their own problem."

The people of New Moon Kingdom didn’t believe that the Blue Sand Kingdom couldn’t hold off the undead, after all, they still had three legendary figures. As long as they had these experts, it wasn’t possible to fail.

Of course, if one or two of them died, that would be even better, directly changing the power dynamics between the two nations.

At that time, whether to marry the princess over or bring the opposing princess back would be a subject for serious discussion. It might even necessitate renegotiating some previously agreed-upon benefit distributions.

Throughout the kingdom, whether it was the king or other ministers, most opted to wait and see.
