Living In Another World With A Farm
Chapter 5487 - 5487 Building the bridge (1)

Chapter 5487: Building the bridge (1) Chapter 5487: Building the bridge (1) Zhao Hai woke up early as usual, but he did not look too good.

He could use hundreds of people as his slaves without any worries, but it still consumed a lot of his spiritual power, so he did not look too good.

However, he was not worried at all.

He knew that he would be fully recovered soon.

Today was the day of the attack, so he had to show up.

After Zhao Hai got up and ate something, he asked the Army to clean up the camp.

They marched straight to thundercloud city.

Along the way, Zhao Hai sat in his carriage.

Many generals also came to Zhao Hai’s carriage.

After everyone was seated, Zhao Hai looked at stone hammer and said, ” “Stone hammer, I asked you to ask those ordinary soldiers why they surrendered yesterday.

Did you ask them?”

Shi Chui said in a deep voice, ” young master, I’ve asked them.

The result was quite unexpected.

The soldiers surrendered because they had wanted to surrender for a long time.

In fact, it’s not just the soldiers.

Many people in the city-states under the control of the Saint Academy are waiting for us.

The soldiers told me this themselves.

&Quot;

&Quot; what?

” Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment before he said in a deep voice, ” tell me, what’s going on?

”

Stone hammer nodded and said in a deep voice, &Quot; young master, you should know that a few months ago, when our bewitching Empire was just established, there was a period of time when a large number of civilians under the control of the sacred Institute began to escape to our bewitching Empire.

At that time, you even ordered that they must be properly arranged.

However, very few civilians escaped later on.

You sent someone to inquire and said that the sacred Institute ordered that they were not allowed to escape.

If they were caught, they would be executed.

Therefore, those civilians did not escape.

&Quot;

Zhao Hai nodded and said, ” you know about this.

There were quite a number of people who escaped back then.

It was a huge financial headache for us.

Why?

” Are they related?”

Shi Chui said in a deep voice, ” it’s related.

It’s very related.

Those guys of the sacred Institute are not human at all.

They are too cruel.

In order to prevent those people from running away, they took all the food from their homes and gave them some food every day.

However, the food was not enough.

Many people have starved to death.

Without food, those people have no strength to run away, so they stopped running.

&Quot;

Hearing Shi Chui’s words, everyone in the car was stunned.

Zhao Hai’s expression changed, ” “There’s such a thing?

If they didn’t let the people eat their fill, how could they work?

Don’t they expect the people to work and feed them?”

Shi Chui said in a deep voice, &Quot; if we don’t feed them, we have to watch them work.

Many of them have died of hunger, exhaustion, or freezing.

They’ve become slaves.

Even these soldiers can only feed themselves and keep their families alive.

They can’t do anything else.

Under such circumstances, how can those civilians support them?

therefore, whether it’s those civilians or those ordinary soldiers, they’re not afraid of us.

I don’t feel any disgust at all.”

Zhao Hai’s expression changed completely.

The temperature in the car dropped by a few degrees.

Everyone knew Zhao Hai very well.

They all knew that Zhao Hai was very good to the people.

How could he not be angry when he heard that the people had suffered so much?

even the other generals were angry, let alone Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai snorted.

&Quot; they’re asking for it.

The sacred Institute is asking for it.

They’ve underestimated the power of the people.

So what if they have many masters in the sacred Institute?

can they live without the people?

Without those commoners, what would they eat?

Without those commoners, what would they drink?

Hmph, now they’re actually treating the people like this.

They’re really digging their own graves.”

Shi Chui said in a deep voice, ” young master, I think this is an opportunity, a great opportunity.

It’s the sacred Institute who has given us this opportunity.

As long as we attack now, we will definitely get the support of those people.

By then, we don’t have to worry about the rear at all.

We just need to attack with all our strength.

Perhaps those troops won’t support them, so our attack will be easier.

&Quot;

Zhao Hai nodded his head, ” this is indeed an opportunity, but there are many things we need to do.

Pass down my orders.

From now on, begin transferring food from all over the country to this place.

When our Army goes over, their food must follow.

We must let the people eat and wear warm clothes.

At the same time, we will divide the land and land.

Everything will be done according to the rules of our bewitching Empire.

&Quot;

Everyone responded in unison.

Zhao Hai looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice, ” &Quot; I know that everyone is from a big family, because ordinary civilians, unless they are very talented, it is very difficult for them to make a name for themselves, so everyone doesn’t pay much attention to civilians.

But don’t forget that your ancestor may only be a civilian, and don’t underestimate the power of these civilians.

These civilians usually look like a bunch of weeds, so inconspicuous that no one will take a second look.

However, if you keep squeezing the grass, it will turn into dry grass.

With just a spark, it will start burning.

That fire can burn people to death.”

Everyone shivered and answered “yes” in unison.

Zhao Hai looked at them and said in a deep voice, &Quot; you are all soldiers, so you don’t have much contact with civilians.

However, at the same time, when you interact with civilians, you have to be more careful.

If soldiers abuse civilians, then they can’t be called soldiers.

They are bandits.

The duty of a soldier is to protect the country.

Those civilians provide for you and support you in hopes that one day, when someone is going to harm them, you will stand up and protect them.

If you can’t even do this, you will have to do it.

&Quot; You should just go home and be a rich man, so you don’t harm others and yourself.”

“Your Majesty, give the order!” Everyone replied in unison.

Zhao Hai nodded and said in a deep voice, ” the sacred Institute doesn’t understand this.

Over the years, they have been supported by various city-states, which has created a huge gap between them and the civilians.

It is this gap that has made them look down on the civilians.

Just wait and see.

This time, they will suffer a loss.

The sacred Institute will be destroyed because of these civilians.

&Quot;

Everyone nodded and didn’t say anything.

Instead, it was Chen Yonghe who looked at Zhao Hai and said in a deep voice, &Quot; Your Majesty, there’s one more thing I don’t understand.

If we want to deal with the sacred Institute, there’s one place that we have to guard against, which is the secret realm.

If the sacred Institute really hires someone from the secret realm to deal with us, we’ll be in trouble.

&Quot;

The others nodded.

In fact, many people had thought of this, but Zhao Hai had not said anything.

In addition, when they had fought against the sacred Institute, they had not been completely at an advantage like now, so they had not said anything.

Now that they had established their own nation and had a great advantage in the battle against the sacred Institute, they naturally thought of this.

Zhao Hai smiled, ” alright, I have my own arrangements for the secret realm.

You don’t have to worry about it.

Go back.

We have to get to thundercloud City State as soon as possible.

Go.

&Quot; Everyone responded and turned to leave.

The Army advanced very quickly.

The 10000 surrendered soldiers didn’t slow them down.

Some of them even led the way for the Army.

Zhao Hai didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he found out about this.

At the same time, he also felt the pressure the sacred Institute had on these city-states.

After a day’s March, they finally arrived at the cloud River, the border between thundercloud city-state and Nanhua city-state.

This cloud water River was actually a small river.

The river’s surface was only about twenty meters wide, and the river’s depth was only a few meters.

It really wasn’t a Big River, but it wasn’t this small river.

It was the border river between the Nanhua city gang and leiyun city-state.

The two city-states used this River as a boundary, and they had lived together in peace for decades.

After crossing the cloud water River, they would arrive at the cloud water city of thundercloud City State.

It wasn’t a big city, but the terrain was very dangerous.

Attacking with water was impossible.

However, Zhao Hai had never thought of using water to attack.

After arriving at the drifting cloud River, Zhao Hai carefully observed the river.

Then, he asked them to find a place to set up their camp and prepare to attack the drifting cloud City the next day.

The sacred Institute’s Army was already stationed at the drifting cloud River.

With the drifting cloud City as the center, there were five armies in total.

The army of one million soldiers was stationed there.

It was getting late.

Zhao Hai planned to let everyone have a good rest tonight.

Then, they would attack the sacred Institute’s Army the next day.

The camp had just been set up when stone hammer arrived at Zhao Hai’s tent.

The moment he entered, he cupped his fists at Zhao Hai and said, ” &Quot; young master, we have just received news that the people from the drifting cloud City are building a bridge on the river.

The bridge is huge and it seems like they are going to build a floating bridge to attack us.

&Quot;

Zhao Hai was stunned when he heard Shi Chui’s words.

He asked in confusion,”The people from the drifting cloud City are building a floating bridge?

Were they crazy?

Even if they had a new commander, he should be busy taking over the troops.

Why would he come to attack us?

Isn’t this just looking for death?”

“But they’re indeed building a floating bridge, and it’s not just one.

If the bridge is set up, there’s no problem in using it for an attack.

Young master, what should we do now?” Shi Chui forced a smile.

&Quot; let’s go, ” Zhao Hai said in a deep voice.

&Quot; let’s go out and have a look.

I want to see what those guys from the sacred Institute are up to.

&Quot; He stood up and walked out with the stone hammer.

After a while, they arrived at the gate of the camp.

Several generals also came over.

Their camp was not far from the Cloudwater River because they needed to get water.

They could see the situation on the river at a glance.

Just like what Shi Chui had said, there were people building a bridge on the river.

They were all wearing military uniforms.

It was obvious that they were the Army of the sacred Institute on the opposite side.

Their pontoon bridge had been partially set up.

Zhao Hai looked at the sky and glanced at the people who were building the bridge in confusion.

He turned to the crowd and said, ” “Everyone, tell me, what are these guys trying to do?

At this time, they still need to build a bridge, and they have just lost so many people, how dare they attack us?

Could it be that those guys have gone crazy?” (To be continued.) &Quot; if you like this work, you’re welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
