I just covet their strength

Chapter 252: Plans to Attack the Knight Country

Westhead's virtue is that he is flexible and tolerant enough. He can move forward courageously when he should, and retreat quickly when he should be timid.

Never expect anything without authorization, never break your defense without authorization, and be mentally prepared for all situations. Therefore, you can naturally remain calm even when facing a huge crisis. You focus on being steady.

"Sorry, I got a little too excited."

Yuerda patted her pretty face and shook her head.

Once it comes to matters concerning the family's honor and disgrace, it is difficult for her to maintain restraint. After hearing Westhead talk about the ultimate goal, Yulda just thought that her brother was dreaming.

But after seeing Lord Qinghui's astonishing promotion speed, she suddenly realized that such a future might not be a fantasy?

Can Qinghui's bloodline become as noble as the imperial family? Become a descendant of gods?!

The thought of this possibility made Yurda so excited that her whole body trembled.

"It's okay. Just remember to learn virtues in the future. As for now..."

Westhead glanced at the pioneers who were hesitant to speak, and said with a smile:

"Let's celebrate our victory and give Myvana a farewell."

The imperial people hung their heads in dismay. Even though someone from the Qinghui family had just said something very offensive, they were only surprised for a moment and did not show any resentment.

After all, in the current situation, the God Ancestor can no longer protect them. Only Qinghui Gong has proved with his strength that he is the one who can protect the peace of the area. It is foreseeable that the Bright People will be the rulers of the southeastern border of the empire for a long time.

If I don't bow my head now, will I incur the disgust of Lord Qinghui and suffer in the future?

Next, the spellcasters of the Clearlight Legion and the Clear Ring worked hard on the land of the Winterfall Province to eliminate all corruption and pollution.

The moment the little sacred tree turned over, it destroyed the area near the capital, but most of the territory of Dongluoye Province was still intact. It was just that the spreading pollution and corruption caused the imperial people of Dongluoye to flee one after another, so this newly-promoted imperial border province itself was still quite useful.

It has to be said that the serial blows of isolation between gods and mortals and the corruption of the sacred tree were too great. Wherever the Qinghui Legion passed, the people of Dongluoye all offered food and drink to welcome the royal army.

Although the capital of Dongluoye, as the most prosperous place, was completely destroyed, it actually had one advantage for Qinghui Territory, that is, the aristocracy was almost wiped out, and the power vacuum was quite easy to take over.

This kind of almost unbridled expansion has never happened in Qinghui Territory in the past thousand years.

Westhead even made a statement to other nearby imperial provinces to ensure security, stating that as long as uncontrollable situations occurred in the area, the Qinghui Legion would lend a helping hand and take over the local defense.

Judging from the chaos in the early years of the Strife Years, this possibility is very high. At least Westhead remembered that the empire's territory had shrunk by at least 30% in just one year, and a small half of the area fell into chaos. It seems that there is no shortage of opportunities for expansion.

Unfortunately, Westhead's ambitions were dampened.

"If we want to do what you envision, our troops are not enough, far from enough."

Yuerda said to Lord Qinghui in a serious tone in the mansion:
"Ordinary management is very simple. With the Sky Kingdom's central processing system, the bureaucracy is extremely streamlined. A few people can handle the affairs of an entire city. But the most critical thing is the manpower. We are seriously lacking in manpower. Maintaining the status quo is already the limit. We can no longer control one more province, otherwise there will be sieves everywhere."

Although Qinghui Territory has been very active in expanding its military, the number of legions still cannot be increased. It can only be said that it is barely enough to make up for the loss. "This is indeed a problem."

Westhead nodded, agreeing: "It's not possible to cultivate a core army just by throwing money at it. It has to be done slowly. But I still don't want to miss this opportunity."

After going through the early years of the strife era, there were no more opportunities to expand territory. The size of Qinghui Territory was too small to support the establishment of an ascension element like the [Fanatical Kingdom Anchored in the Mortal World]. Otherwise, he would not be so eager to expand his territory.

"Brother, I still suggest that you don't recruit too many ordinary people. This is not just a battle between mortals. If you encounter chaos, too many mortal troops will be at a disadvantage."

The white-blond girl said quickly when she saw Westhead was lost in deep thought for a long time.

"I'm not that crazy yet."

Westhead waved his hand, then stroked his chin and said:
"But if there is a ready-made army, wouldn't the problem be solved?"

"what do you mean"

"Aren't the Yonglan Knights the best target? If we talk about combat power in the mortal world, excluding the Sky Kingdom, the Yonglan Knights are the best, not to mention that we have extremely legitimate reasons."

Westhead briefly explained the situation of the Knight's Way Expedition and said:
"So the situation in Twilight Territory is quite delicate and dangerous. Myvana is going back to the Kingdom of Eternal Mist and will leave tomorrow morning. What I want to do is to take the position of Knight King."

Yurda: "Would you like to sit down?"

Westhead: "It doesn't matter whether I sit or Myvana sits. In short, we have to face this chivalry expedition head-on. We have to defeat them before we can recruit the knights as our own."

No, just after being promoted to Legend, you already don’t take an orderly country seriously?

That's the Kingdom of Yonglan! Even without the [Yonglan Knight God], it's better to say that the Kingdom of Knights is the country that relies least on the God Ancestor. Taking advantage of the fire is not the way to rob, and it also ran into the heyday of the Knights' Expedition. Do you really think the legend is invincible? Yonglan's great knights are not few in number.

Yuerda wanted to remind him, but the prestige that Westhead had built up through his past deeds played a role. She stopped questioning and nodded slightly:

"If you have thought it through, I have no problem with you. When do you plan to leave?"

Westhead: "The territories we have swallowed need to be integrated, and the defenses need to be arranged. In addition, I also need to bring a group of truly elite confidants with me. Not many, a legion of a few thousand people will be enough."

A few thousand people conquering an orderly country? !

Lord Qinghui's arrogance is not groundless, because he is too familiar with the Kingdom of Yonglan. The knights do not attach much importance to legal principles. As long as he can conquer them with absolute strength, he can gain the loyalty of the knights.

There is no need for a large army to invade, as long as individual top experts join forces, this great feat can be accomplished.

In this era, the top strong men who have dominated the world for thousands of years.
"After a while, Leixia should also be promoted to Legend. Then I will invite her to come with me and conquer the Kingdom of Yonglan without any problem!"

The combination of [Withered Dragon Emperor], [Heaven-Devouring Wave] and Westhead is so powerful!
