After the court meeting was accelerated, Tianyang returned to the Western Continent and returned to Lieyang Castle.
Next, Tianyang announced an expedition to the capital of the Dark Empire, thanks to the intelligence information provided by Lieyang Castle, and the reverse world where the Dark Empire was located was behind the Kraf Gate controlled by the fortress.
Therefore, although Lieyang Fort is not the main force in this expedition, Lieyang Fort will account for a quarter of the expedition's profits.
The rest will be distributed among the expedition's coalition forces.
In addition to the income, the arrival of the expeditionary coalition forces requires the Lieyang Fort to provide logistical support, which is not included in the expedition income. In other words, the Golden Court will allocate a sum of money to Lieyang Fort to ensure the logistical needs.
This is also a considerable amount of financial income for Lieyang Castle.
Therefore, after returning to Lieyang Fort, in addition to announcing the expedition, Tianyang also asked officials at all levels of the fortress to focus their attention on the logistics of the expedition.
In addition, the date of the expedition has been set, and the expedition teams from various fortresses will arrive one after another. They will make some preparations in the Fiery Sun Fortress before entering the Reverse Realm one after another.
During this process, the influx of a large number of outsiders will inevitably fill bars, casinos and other entertainment venues, which will also bring additional income to Lieyang Castle.
However, what follows is the problem of maintaining order. Even if each fortress will strictly require its own expedition team, once the base number is enlarged, many problems will inevitably arise.
Therefore, in order to reduce the pressure on the 'Blue Fortress', Tianyang allowed them to expand and recruit a thousand soldiers in the fortress to maintain order in the fortress.
In addition, Tianyang contacted the War God Castle. After communicating with Huo Hanshan, the War God Castle will dispatch another thousand soldiers to the Lieyang Castle to help them get through this period.
Soon, the residents of Fiery Sun Fort felt that the fortress began to move.
The day after the news was released, Lieyang Fort began to build a temporary camp outside the city to accommodate the expedition teams from various fortresses. The initial investment alone drained away all the construction workers in the fortress.
The fortress released recruitment information that day, and a large number of positions including soldiers and construction workers attracted the attention of residents. Even residents of nearby settlements heard the news and rushed to Lieyang Fort.
For a moment, the whole fortress became very busy.
After more than half a month, the temporary camp had been basically built. Next, Lieyang Castle purchased a large amount of daily necessities from fortresses such as the God of War Castle, Dark Moon Castle, Silver Dragon Castle, and Iron Blood Castle through various channels that had been established before.
Almost every day, a convoy would cross the desert and enter Lieyang Castle to transport the supplies they purchased from various places to the warehouse.
After another busy week or so, the Golden Court's expedition teams began to arrive one after another.
The first to arrive were the army of the Church of War.
They all participated in the last expedition of Skyfort, so how could they miss this expedition to the capital of the Dark Empire
Moreover, this expedition was personally led by Guan Feng, the black archbishop of the "War Dogma". The archbishop brought three bishops, seventeen silver-crowned knights transferred from various cardinal courts, and one thousand church warriors.
As for the cathedrals and great cathedrals, there must be at least 80 of them. It can be said that in this expedition, the War Church
Willing to invest.
Soon after, people from the other three churches arrived.
In addition to the Church of the Lord of War, the church with the largest number of participants in the expedition is the Church of the Goddess of Light. This church, headquartered in the Castle of Light, sent three "Sun Saints" and thirty "Messengers of Light". As for the church army, there are 500 people.
The 'Sun Saints' came from the 'Sun Temple', and each of them was of Heavenly Rank. The 'Glory Messengers' were equivalent to Silver Crown Knights. Although their combat power was less in the middle and lower levels, the fact that they had three Heavenly Ranks showed that the Church of the 'Glory Goddess' was unwilling to let the Church of War dominate.
As for the Church of the God of Nature and the White Ivory Tower, their personnel are quite small, especially the latter. Their team is led by a "mysterious mentor". This team is almost entirely composed of scholars. It seems that they are going to the Dark Empire to do research.
The arrival of the four major churches instantly added a lot of color to Lieyang Fortress, and also made this fortress the focus of the Western Continent for a time.
After all, only the Golden Court knew about the expedition, and the outside world had not yet received the news.
Therefore, one can imagine how shocked those who were unaware of the situation would feel when they suddenly saw the four major churches gathered in Lieyang Castle and squeezed into a small fortress.
At this time, even a blind man could guess that something big was about to happen in Lieyang Castle.
At the same time, they were jealous of Lieyang Castle to the point of madness. After all, the opportunity to deal with the four major churches at the same time was almost non-existent. But now, Lieyang Castle actually encountered such a good thing.
Now, fortresses such as Silver Dragon Castle and Dark Moon Castle also know why their allies suddenly purchased large quantities of supplies some time ago.
So, the two fortresses sent messages, implicitly asking Tianyang whether Lieyang Fort had made any big moves recently. They almost told Tianyang not to forget them if anything good happened and to take them along.
Tian Yang did not hide the secret from them and revealed a little about the expedition. However, since he was not the one hosting the expedition, he was unable to invite the two fortresses to participate.
But they can be given some opportunities. After all, for a large-scale expedition like this, the size of the logistics support team will be quite large, and Lieyang Castle cannot take care of it all. In addition, now that the allies have asked, Tianyang will generously hand over some projects to them.
Although they could not get tickets for the expedition, the lords of the two fortresses were quite satisfied to be able to participate in the logistical support.
The benefits gained from participating in logistics support are one thing, but being able to take this opportunity to meet more important people and open up more channels is what they value.
Following the four major churches, expeditions from super fortresses such as the Glory Castle and the Emerald Castle also began to arrive. When the armies of these two super fortresses appeared in the small Fiery Sun Castle.
Lieyang Castle, this small fortress which was built less than two years ago, has truly become the focus of everyone's attention!
The eyes of the entire Western Continent were focused on this small fortress in the desert. Many well-informed people had already heard that the four major churches and numerous fortress armies had arrived because they were heading for a joint expedition to the enemy world behind the Krav Gate in Fiery Sun Castle.
Some bigwigs learned through various channels that there once existed a dark empire in the world behind the Klav Gate in Lieyang Fort. Now the empire has collapsed, but the capital of the empire is still there.
This trip shook the entire Western Continent.
To march means to go to that capital.
After learning the news, many of these bigwigs felt deep regret. They regretted that they should not have underestimated the Waste Picking City and should not have felt that the effort and benefits were not equal when the Lieyang Fort was just established, and should not have made every effort to take over the small fortress.
Otherwise, it would be me who is having the best of both worlds, instead of the young city lord.
Unfortunately, even if they regretted it a thousand times, it would be useless. The established facts would not change because of their regret. Moreover, the lord of the fortress has become a member of the Golden Council. If they were to target him now, it would be the same as declaring war on the Golden Council.
No one will do such a stupid thing for the time being.
Under the watchful eyes of the entire Western Continent, finally, on the 35th day after Tianyang returned to Lieyang Castle, the Golden Court Expeditionary Force entered the Kraf Gate one after another. They will assemble at the forward base behind the gate and then set off.
At this moment, Tianyang was already at the forward base, in the command hall, with Lin Jianping, Tu Ge, Guan Feng and other important figures.
It's a bit of a pity that Peter Desmonk did not participate in this expedition because he had not fully recovered from the injuries he suffered in the last battle with EsGod.
However, instead of Peter, there is Tuge.
With the participation of this parliamentary giant with the title of "Strongest Shield", even a cautious person like Lin Jianping said frankly that even if the Black King revived, he was confident of winning the battle.
This shows that he has great confidence in Tuge.
In the hall, watching the armies from various fortresses gather one by one, Guan Feng snorted, looked at Tianyang and said, "Lord Tianyang, we are about to set off. Can you now publish the route map you have?"
The black-robed archbishop glanced at the people around him, then laughed and said, "It shouldn't matter if we see the route map now. We won't leave you guys behind and run away, right?"
Tian Yang didn't answer, and Lin Jianping smiled and interrupted, "Archbishop, since we are setting out now, everyone will see this route map sooner or later, so there is no need to rush, don't you think?"
With the Lord of Glory Castle saying this, Guan Feng naturally had no choice but to say "yes" with a smile.
... ... ...
When the expeditionary coalition of the Golden Council was about to set off, Ye Xing was traveling in the electronic world. This alien object separated a part of its energy, along with part of its spiritual will, and sneaked into the central control system of the Golden Council through the "back door" that it had left for itself.
In its eyes, it sees a cold world made up of countless codes. In this world, behind each code, there is a piece of information. Ye Xing sometimes intercepts a piece of code, interprets the information inside, and then goes to another place, never staying in the same place for more than 1 second.
This is to prevent it from being discovered by the system's self-check program, and last time it detected the existence of an information life in this system.
It has been a while since the last infiltration. It doesn't know whether the information life has left the system world of the Golden Court or has taken root here.
If it was the latter, then it had to be careful, so Yexing wrote a lot of codes to fake itself, in order to deceive the Golden Court's system and to prevent being discovered by the information life.
