Magic Industry Empire - 1096. Chapter 1096
Count Dean Demps, the lord of Metro City, could hardly believe his ears when he heard the news of an enemy invasion reported by his men.
Enemy invasion?
As the current patriarch of the Demps family, Dean Demps has heard of the word “enemy” for the first time since he took over as the lord of Metro City 26 years ago.
Even back to the four hundred years of history in which the Demps family was entrusted to this land, there has never been a foreign enemy invading Metro City.
You know, Metro City is the largest city near the border of the southwestern province of the Candela Empire! Known as a jewel on the border of the southwestern province!
How dare anyone dare to invade such a high-profile city?
Or to put it more bluntly, someone dares to be so bold as to run into the territory of the Candela Empire?
In the nearly thousand-year history of the Candela Empire, apart from those rare periods of decline, at other times, apart from the Malo Empire on the Sainz continent, which country dared to eat like this. Generally invaded the Candela Empire?
It’s almost reckless!
“Where is the enemy? Do you understand? And what do the border guards do? Didn’t you stop those guys?” Earl Demps asked with a sullen face as he walked out, ready to give orders.
He is not the kind of waste noble city lord, naturally knowing that since the other party has the guts to invade Metro City, at least he has a certain degree of confidence in his own strength.
If he didn’t deal with it well, even if Metro City would not fall, it would be unacceptable for him to suffer a little loss from the war.
Hearing his question, the face of the subordinate who came to report the letter turned out to be extremely ugly. After swallowing and spitting, he replied with a wry smile: “Inspector understands. According to the spy’s message, the enemy is coming from the southwest. Yes, it’s hanging…with the flag of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce…”
Count Demps halted in his footsteps, his eyes widened, and his face was astonished.
“New Flying Chamber of Commerce? Are you mistaken! Why are they? No, where did they dare to invade our Candela Empire? They are just a Chamber of Commerce!”
The subordinate smiled bitterly and speechlessly.
He is also full of doubts about this question, how can he answer it for Earl Ply.
“No…” Earl Demps shivered suddenly, but suddenly thought of some rumors about the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in the imperial aristocratic circle.
Just six months ago, most of the nobles in the empire knew about the New Flying Merchants Association, mostly from those household magic machines that could bring all kinds of convenience to life.
When the nobles gathered together to discuss the topic of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, most of them would still have a lively discussion on the various high-end magic cars produced by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and they would die for the fact that they could buy a special customized magic car from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. Brag.
As for the performance of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in terms of military strength, although the nobles of the Candela Empire have heard about it, most of them only know that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce can produce some powerful military magic machines, which are very useful on the battlefield.
Except for the nobles under the military department, not many people really know how these military magic machines work and how powerful they are.
But now half a year later, in the war that the Candela Empire once again invaded the Ruelson Kingdom in the past few months, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has truly demonstrated its unparalleled strength.
The direct participation of the guards of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce actually caused the Candela Empire’s 180,000 troops to be defeated in less than two months, and finally declared the invasion failed and reluctantly returned to the country.
After that, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce stirred up the wind and rain in other places on the Sainz Continent, but the empire just remained silent, and there was never any sound.
This allowed all the nobles in the empire to recognize the fact that the Imperial Military Department had apparently admitted that it had no ability to defeat the New Flying Merchant Association, and only then would they remain silent in front of the New Flying Merchant Association.
So all the nobles of the Candela Empire really knew the strength of the New Flying Merchant Association for the first time, and when they discussed the topic of the New Flying Merchant Association, they mostly focused on the various weird military magic machinery produced by the New Flying Merchant Association. .
Although Earl Demps was only a lord noble in a remote territory in the southwestern province of the empire, he was also a noble after all, and he was very sensitive to these news.
So he had already known from all kinds of news about the strength of the New Flying Merchant Association in terms of military strength, but he never thought that one day he would actually face the powerful force of the New Flying Merchant Association directly.
After all, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is only a chamber of commerce after all. No matter how strong the military power he possesses, how can his guards be as unstoppable as the legend, how can they come to invade the Candela Empire?
Earl Demps was full of doubts, but now is not the time for doubts.
He frowned and thought about it for a while, then beckoned to his men to move closer.
“Immediately send someone to ask for help from the Governor’s Mansion.”
The man was stunned.
For help? As the most important city on the southwest border of the Candela Empire, Metro City itself has 30,000 regular empires as its guards. Recently it has also been equipped with many self-produced military magic machines developed by the military. In terms of defensive forces alone , Can be regarded as the strongest city in the southwestern province except for the governor’s mansion.
Why does Lord City Lord think of asking for help as soon as he hears that the enemy is the new flying business association?
Although the guards of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce are quite strong in the legend, they are not too strong, right?
Seeing his subordinates still in a daze, Earl Demps glared and exclaimed: “Why are you still in a daze? Why don’t you go!”
Shocked, he hurriedly responded, turned and left in a hurry.
Earl Demps didn’t pause for a while, left the City Lord’s Mansion directly, boarded a new magic car he had just bought four months ago, and hurried to the garrison camp outside the city.
However, before he reached the gate of the city, he suddenly heard several shocking explosions from outside the city, making him feel buzzing in the magic car and his scalp numb.
Earl Demps looked up in amazement, and saw that the sky outside the city had been dyed red by the dazzling flames that exploded, as if the clouds had been burned.
After staying for two seconds, Earl Demps suddenly felt aroused and reacted instantly.
The direction of the fire is not the direction of the garrison camp outside the city!
Earl Demps quickly opened the door of the car, rushed to the wall next to the gate like crazy, and looked into the distance with his eyes raised.
About three kilometers away from the city, it was the camp where the Thirty Thousand Imperial Army was stationed near Metro City.
Looking from a distance, the camp was completely surrounded by fire, and only the thunder-like explosions and faint screams coming from the wind could be heard from a distance.
Count Demps stared blankly for a while, and grabbed the Metro City garrison who hurriedly arrived after hearing the news.
“Send someone over there to see the situation immediately, the fastest! Do you understand?”
The garrison officer’s fat face was sweaty, and he nodded, and quickly turned around to arrange the manpower.
Earl Demps turned his head and looked again in the direction of the distant camp, his heart was very chilled.
Although he had long heard that the total number of guards under the New Flying Merchants Association was only about 20,000, he had no doubt that with the strength of the New Flying Merchants Association’s guards, the 30,000 garrisons could be easily eliminated.
What really chilled him was that he had just received the news of the invasion of the New Flying Merchants Association. In a blink of an eye, the New Flying Merchants Association had already approached Metro City, and even now he had come into contact with Metro City’s biggest support.
This speed of action is simply appalling.
He could instantly judge that before the Governor’s Mansion sent reinforcements, the other party must have already resolved those garrisons.
If they come to attack Metro City next, what should he resist?
Perhaps in response to Earl Demps’s speculation, a few minutes later, a group of strange-looking magic locomotives suddenly rushed out from the garrison camp covered by fire and smoke, towards Metro City. Drove swiftly and mightily.
At first glance, this team is probably composed of hundreds of various magic locomotives, but with the garrison camp caught in the flames behind them, it makes people feel like they are like demons rushing out of hell. Horrified.
Earl Demps took the binoculars handed over by the garrison officer, and at a glance saw that the flags flying above the magic locomotives were the famous half-winged new flying flags of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
“It’s really these guys!” Earl Demp gritted his teeth, his face uncertain.
The 30,000 garrisons outside the city can no longer be counted on. Now there are only 5,000 garrisons in Metro City and 2,000 private guards of the City Lord’s Mansion, which adds up to only 7,000 garrisons.
Although the city walls are also equipped with some homemade magic artillery provided by the military, how can these imitating the magic artillery of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce compete with the original products of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce?
However, as the City Lord of Metro City, he couldn’t directly give up resistance.
Otherwise, he will be held accountable by the military in the future. With this alone, he will be directly deprived of his noble status, and he will even spend the rest of his life in prison.
“Damn! It’s our Demps family’s territory no matter what, how can we just give up so simply!”
Count Demps cursed viciously in his heart, and turned his head to give a solemn order to the guards of the city guard nearby: “Close all the city gates and prepare to defend!”
The defender looked at the various magic locomotives flying the flag of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in a panic on his face, thinking that even the 30,000 regular troops could not withstand the offensive of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. With their thousands of guards Can the army be able to stop it?
“What are you in a daze?” Earl Demps kicked the defender’s ass. “I tell you, if you dare to be defeated, believe it or not, I’ll cut you off now!”
The defender looked terrified, quickly reduced all the same expressions on his face, saluted Earl Demps, and prepared to go to the city defense.
But he just turned around, and before he took two steps, he heard the whistle of his subordinates breaking through the air from a distance.
Turning his head and looking around, he found several fiery red rays of light flying from the array of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in the distance. They had already crossed a long distance of more than two kilometers in an instant, just hitting the tall walls of Metro City.
“Boom boom boom boom—”
Countless violent explosions sounded in the ears of the earl of Demps and the garrison, and then they found with a look of horror that the city wall…collapsed…
