Chapter 676 Chaoyun Country, Si She Country
Originally, the Donglu Xie generals from Chaoyun and Sishe thought that after taking over Biye Kingdom, they would become the foothold of the Xiyun Empire on the Eastern Continent.
The leader of the Xiyun Kingdom will take advantage of the situation to march towards Chaoyun, and Si and Shi will expand the territory of the empire. This is a piece of cake for the Xiyun Empire, which has already mobilized the entire Xiyun fleet to the Eastern Continent.
However, the top leaders of the Xiyun Empire, headed by Bai Yuqi, apart from carrying out infrastructure construction, developing people's livelihood, and exploiting resources.
They sent the Xiyun Army to capture strange beasts throughout the territory of Biye Kingdom, recruited troops from among the people of Biye, and once again expanded the army to 500 million for large-scale military training.
It seemed that there was no intention to take the next step, and a group of Xie generals from Chaoyun and Sishe were all worried.
However, there is a requirement for Xie generals from both countries to take the initiative to recruit and surrender.
However, Bai Yuqi did not undermine their subjective initiative, and readily agreed to send two envoy ships to them, allowing them to return home on their own to persuade their king to surrender to the Xiyun Empire.
Adding icing on the cake is not as good as giving help in the nick of time. How could Chaoyun and Sisui, like the Boye Kingdom, easily give away their valuable royal seal and the inheritance of their national tradition until the critical moment when the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed?
The main reason why Bai Yuqi stood still was because of the observation through the Sky Eye System.
Because Chaoyun and Sishe lost the support of the big granary of Biye State, they fell into trouble earlier than Biye State.
He had no choice but to take desperate measures to seek outside help, but now he has found a new ally and completely given up on the Boye Kingdom, which has no news at all.
But it's not that we can't understand their behavior of abandoning their allies. After all, they themselves have too much to take care of themselves.
The combined land area of the two countries is less than the size of Baiye State, and the combined population is less than 5 billion.
However, it was able to withstand the frontal attack of the powerful South Wanzhou and Yu China despite being short of food and clothing, which shows the ferocious temperament of its people.
Although the Baiye Kingdom is rich in produce and protected by two natural moats, the long-term stability has worn away the bloody spirit of the people, making the country's combat power inferior to the two major allies.
The Chaoyun Kingdom has a population of less than 2 billion, but most of them are proficient in water skills, good at boating and fishing, and can run on the water for a short period of time. They are serious enemies of the Longqiang people of the Shui Tribe in the Western Sea.
In the past, during the period of stability, most people from the Chaoyun Kingdom, who were not good at farming, went out to sea in boats to fish, or dived into the sea to fish for pearls and shellfish, in exchange for food and products from the Boye and Sishe Kingdoms.
After losing the support of Baiye Kingdom, food was not cut off because it was close to the sea, but there was no source of products.
In order not to fall into a situation where he was surrounded by enemies on both sides of the sea and the land, King Chaoyun immediately decided to turn their hostility into friendship with the Dragon and Qiang people in the sea, and swore an oath to form an alliance.
They also borrowed the sea route of the Longqiang people to bypass the blockade of Yuzhong to obtain resources from the outside world, and then they managed to survive the encirclement and suppression by the Yuzhong army.
The population of the Si She Kingdom is approximately over 3 billion, and it does not have a fixed residence in a walled city.
Instead, they live nomadically in tribes of varying sizes, and are good at riding, shooting, hunting and herding livestock.
Due to the characteristics of the nomadic people, almost all the people are soldiers and they have no fixed place to live. They can fight when they advance and they can retreat when they retreat.
Instead, the Si She Kingdom became the main force in resisting the invasion of Yuzhong's army, firmly withstanding the pressure of the frontal battlefield.
Without completely conquering or annihilating Sishu Kingdom, Yuzhong's army would not dare to march directly into the prairie where Sishu Kingdom lived.
Because Si Shi's pig cavalry could bypass the army's marching route at any time and steal their retreat from behind.
The reason why the Si Shi Kingdom is called the Si Shi Kingdom is because they are good at domesticating a ferocious beast called "Si Shi" as a mount.
This kind of beast is not a wild boar, but a beast that is as strong as a tiger and as strong as an ox, but it has an ox tail, horse hooves, and tusks protruding from its mouth like a wild boar.
Pigeons not only have long endurance, but are also good at running long distances.
And when hunting, it will burst out at astonishing high speeds, ramming into its prey with its curved fangs as sharp as spears.
If it is not extremely ferocious and aggressive in temperament and difficult to tame, it can be regarded as the best variety of war beasts and mounts. The "Pig" in the fourth-level realm of "Jie, Pig, Ji, Lao" refers to it.
However, from the moment the Si Shi people are born, their parents will prepare a newborn pig for their children.
Let the child and the piglet cub live together, play together, and grow up together since childhood. When they become adults, they will be partners like brothers and sisters.
The people of the Si She Kingdom have developed an amazing physique because they have played and wrestled with ferocious and aggressive beasts since they were young.
In addition, the nomads feed on meat, and their body's Qi and blood are abnormally abundant, so that they have the combat power equivalent to that of pigs as soon as they reach adulthood.
The probability of being promoted to high-end combat power levels such as Zhan Ji and Zhan Prison is also far higher than that of other ethnic groups.
If it weren't for the scarcity of monks in the Sihe Kingdom, and few major cultivators above the Qi Realm capable of refining blood soul essences, their Xie General level combat power would probably be astonishing.
But there is no way to stop people. Although there is no major spiritual sect in the Si Shi Kingdom, various tribes spread an ancient witchcraft similar to witches and shamans.
Through the method of blood sacrifice, the blood soul of the accompanying pig beast can be transplanted to the Si pig warrior who has reached the level of Xie general. What is amazing is that the success rate is astonishingly high!
The only problem is that the people of Si Shi country regard the accompanying pig beast as their blood brothers. Unless the companion pig beast dies unexpectedly in the battle, very few people are willing to kill the companion pig beast in order to improve their own strength.
It was precisely because of Si Shi's three billion war cavalry that they held back Yuzhong's army for many years, allowing the Si Ye Kingdom to survive.
As the battle became fiercer, a large number of Xie beast warriors suffered casualties, and a large number of blood soul Xie generals were born, making the Si Xie country more and more difficult to deal with.
I went down and vomited but couldn't vomit out. It was very uncomfortable.
When the two countries were still able to fight, the Xiyun Empire ran over and said that they wanted to surrender the other side. It would be hell if they could accept it.
Since you can't recruit someone to surrender, what's the point of rushing over?
It would be better to wait until they and Yu Zhongguo lose both sides and then come forward.
Before that, it would be better to take advantage of the big piece of meat of the Siye Kingdom, convert its population and land into the property of the Xiyun Empire, and settle down.
Lest the war situation between Chaoyun, Sishu, and Yu China recur, and the original Siye monarchs and ministers have some luck mentality and regret surrendering to the Xiyun Empire, Bai Yuqi doesn't want to suppress them at that time.
rebellion.
Therefore, although envoy ships were dispatched, they had no hope of persuading the other party to join the Xiyun Empire, and instead focused on opening up land routes and fishing to the Siye Kingdom.
