768: Chapter 244: The Method of Threatening the Beastman into Staying Still (Part 1) 768: Chapter 244: The Method of Threatening the Beastman into Staying Still (Part 1) The Behemoth Beasts gradually departed, yet Anthony remained there for a long time, unable to leave.
He and his subordinates naturally were no longer trying to stop the Army of Behemoths from moving away.
During this time of standing and watching, the Bear King had already formulated his own plan.
“Uncle Zi, that Bear Person just now seemed to want to submit to you.
Why didn’t you acknowledge him?” Shan said, sitting on Zi’s shoulder and gently tugging at Zi’s hair.
To others, Zi might appear strong and cold, but he could never bear to be cold towards Shan and Lei, the little sisters.
A gentle smile appeared on his face, “If your father were here, he definitely wouldn’t ask me such a question.”
Shan was momentarily stunned.
On the other side, Lei already asked, “Why wouldn’t dad ask?
Is it because of the life-binding covenant between you two?
Yes, it must be that.
Dad already knows what’s in Uncle’s heart, of course, he wouldn’t ask.”
Zi smiled wryly, he chose not to explain, but Ye Yinzhu’s face and smiles emerged in his mind.
Brother, my first step is plete, wait for me; within a year, I will definitely reach Thor Hammer Fort again.
As an Amethyst Behemoth, besides powerful strength, what was more important was that Zi possessed wisdom no less than that of humans.
From the conversation between Behemoth King Karl and Anthony and from the situation with the Legion of Berserker Bear and Anthony’s discourse, he had already roughly understood the Bear King.
He certainly could have killed Anthony.
With the power of the Four Sacred Beasts, entering the Solomon Fortress from a relatively weak defense was even possible.
However, Zi did not want to do that.
Beastmen never lacked strong warriors, but they did lack true manders and talent.
In Zi’s eyes, Anthony was undoubtedly a talent.
Subduing the entire Solomon Tribe brought greater benefits for the future development of the Beastmen than annihilating them with force would.
The Three Great Beastman Tribes had after all ruled the Northernmost Wilderness for so many years; if they were to rely entirely on slaughter to remove their rule, then the entire world of the Beastmen might fall into great chaos, something Zi did not want to see.
He wanted to bee the King of the Beastman, and at the same time, lead the Beastman Clan to truly develop and bee stronger.
Holy Light City.
Ye Yinzhu, claiming the need for rest, did not attend the celebration held for him by Marshal Martin; he came down from the battlefield and immediately went back to his residence to cultivate.
He was after all only one person, even if he had reached the Peak Zi rank, his strength was ultimately limited.
This was a battlefield.
Only by keeping his strength constantly at its peak, could he face any situation.
Upon his return to Holy Light City, he only gave two orders, one, was to mand the Horned Hawk Knights to monitor Thor Hammer Fort from high above, and the other, was to have Haiyang lead the Zither Emperor’s Twelve Musician Lanes to play the “Cultivation Source Calm Mind Song” among the Four infantry legions.
Although his words had already broken the Qin City Warriors from their fear, the mental shock needed to be recovered.
To be fully immersed in the Grim Reaper state, having Three Hundred Grim Reaper was enough; Ye Yinzhu did not want to see more warriors lose their human essence like the Three Hundred Grim Reaper had.
The “Cultivation Source Calm Mind Song” could not only restore the warriors’ strength but also stabilize their minds.
Just like a blacksmith tempering a weapon, after the intense heat of the forge, gentle water is needed to strengthen it.
“Yin Zhu.” Oliveira hurried in from outside.
“Brother, what’s the matter?
Is there some movement at Thor Hammer Fort?” Ye Yinzhu asked, his eyes closed.
Having lost his vision, whether his eyes were open or closed made no difference to him.
Oliveira exclaimed in admiration, “Yin Zhu, you really have a godlike insight.
Thor Hammer Fort has indeed made a move.
Although we can’t get close to observe, from a bird’s-eye view from the sky, we can see a large-scale movement of troops within Thor Hammer Fort.
The elf soldier with the best vision told me that those moving troops included the Golden Legion that appeared on the battlefield today.
But strangely, all this large-scale troop movement by Guti seems to be aimed at entering the interior of the Northernmost Wilderness, not launching a counterattack against us.”
A smile appeared at the corner of Ye Yinzhu’s mouth as he thought to himself, Brother Santos has finally made his move.
It seems that Brother Zi is not as unrefined as he appears on the surface; he must have used the opportunity posed by today’s battle between both sides to leave Thor Hammer Fort.
“Brother Oliveira, go tell Hongyan that the Cavalry Corps is preparing to strike.
I will be there shortly,” Ye Yinzhu said.
Oliveira was stunned.
“Yin Zhu, the battle just ended, and Thor Hammer Fortress isn’t deploying troops against us.
What are you doing…”
A mysterious smile appeared on Ye Yinzhu’s face.
“It’s to cover for our allies.
Go quickly.
I’ll explain later.”
As he spoke, he had already stood up from the ground and was walking swiftly towards the city gates.
Before leaving the city, he needed to meet with Marshal Martin.
Oliveira knew the importance of timing on the battlefield and hurried off.
Acpanied by Sura, Ye Yinzhu quickly reached the Marshal Mansion of Marshal Martin.
“Yin Zhu, have you recovered from your cultivation?
You, today you achieved such a great victory, how could you not attend the victory celebration I am holding for you?” As soon as he saw Ye Yinzhu, Marshal Martin couldn’t help but plain.
After witnessing the strength of Qin City, this marshal had pletely wiped the last bit of suspicion and doubt about Qin City from his mind.
Just like Emperor Silvio had decided back then, he chose to fully win over Ye Yinzhu and Qin City, for the sake of the Milan Empire and for their Zi Luolan Family.
Sura supported Ye Yinzhu’s arm as they walked into the Marshal Mansion.
Although she knew that Ye Yinzhu, with his Unity of Heaven and Man ability, could sense the surrounding environment, she still did this.
Every time she saw Ye Yinzhu’s dimmed eyes, Sura’s heart ached tremendously.
If it were not for the journey to the Upper Landias Empire in search of himself, how could Yin Zhu have ended up like this?
Ye Yinzhu never showed any sign of what exactly caused his blindness.
Sura had some vague guesses, but he stubbornly refused to speak, and Sura could do nothing about it.
“Marshal Martin, I am here to ask for your troops,” Ye Yinzhu said straightforwardly.
“Deploy troops?
Now?” Martin was taken aback and looked at Ye Yinzhu with slightly furrowed brows.
It had only been an hour since the war ended.
Even though the Northern Legion’s warriors hadn’t joined the battle, deploying twice within a day clearly defied military logic.
Ye Yinzhu nodded firmly.
“Yes, now.
Just now, our Horned Hawk Knights from Qin City reported back that Thor Hammer Fortress’s Golden Legion suddenly left the fortress and headed deeper into the wilderness.
This is not an opportunity that es by often.
Marshal, your warriors have not yet participated in bat and are still fresh forces.
Now what we need to do is put enough pressure on Thor Hammer Fortress.
If I’m not mistaken, Guti likely followed the Golden Legion.
It’s a very good chance for us to strike a significant blow to the Beastmen again.”
Martin furrowed his brow and said, “Yin Zhu, this might not be proper.
Fighting the Beastmen on the plains is one thing; attacking a fortress is another.
e, sit down and listen to me.”
Although Ye Yinzhu felt somewhat impatient, the Northern Legion was not his after all, and reluctantly, he sat down on a chair nearby.
Martin said, “Thor Hammer Fortress can be described as the most solid defensive bastion on the entire continent.
Managed by the Thunder God Tribe for many years, the fortress walls are over a hundred meters high and more than thirty meters thick.
They are made from granite mixed with iron ore and a unique clay from the Northernmost Wilderness.
The fortitude is such that even a Forbidden Curse bombardment would barely cause any damage.
Furthermore, the forbidden magic field possessed by Thor Hammer Fortress renders all magic ineffective.
Coupled with the defense of nearly a million warriors from the Beastman Clan, attacking Thor Hammer Fortress will only result in heavy losses for our army.
It is an unwise action.
I have led the Northern Legion to fight the Thunder God Tribe for decades.
If it weren’t because the fortress is indeed too difficult to breach, do you think I would like to deal with seasonal plundering by the Beastmen every year as if putting out fires everywhere?
We’ve tried attacking the fortress directly before, but every attempt has ended in failure.
Yin Zhu, I know your warriors from Qin City are powerful and you’ve achieved great success today.
However, young man, you must remember that there can be no mistakes on the battlefield; one slip, and it could very well lead to the annihilation of the entire army, or even affect the overall war situation.”
Martin spoke these words truly out of good intentions, subtly pointing out to Ye Yinzhu to not be placent due to previous victories and also informed him of the specific condition of Thor Hammer Fortress.
However, he did not know that Ye Yinzhu’s real purpose was not to breach that solid fortress.
Ye Yinzhu, of course, understood that Martin’s reluctance to deploy troops was pletely well-intentioned.
He hesitated about whether to share his and Zi’s strategic plans with the marshal.
Seeing Ye Yinzhu not speaking, Martin thought he was not taking his advice to heart and kept persuading him earnestly: “Yin Zhu, the best way to defeat the Beastman Clan is to lure them out of the defensive range of Thor Hammer Fortress and engage them in a head-on battle.
Only in this way can our mages and Dragon Cavalry bring out their true strengths…” (To be continued.
