When he heard the news of an enemy invasion from his subordinate, Meiro City Lord Dean Dempsey, Dempsey, was stunned.
Count Dempsey almost couldn't believe his ears.
Enemy invasion?
As the current patriarch of the Dempsey family, Dean Dempsey, Dean Dempsey, was stunned.
This was the first time he had heard of the word "enemy" since he took over the position of Meiro City's city lord twenty-six years ago.
Even before the Dempsey family had enfeoffed this piece of land for more than four hundred years, there had never been an enemy invasion of Meiro City.
Meiro City was the largest city near the border of the Kandla Empire's Southwest Province!
It was known as the jewel of the Southwest Province's border!
Someone actually dared to recklessly invade such a high-profile city?
Or to put it more bluntly, someone actually had the guts to invade the Kandla Empire's territory?
In the thousand years of Kandla Empire's history, other than a few rare periods of decline, other than the Malor Empire, which other country in the Sines dared to invade the Kandla Empire like this?
They were simply courting death!
"Where did the enemy come from?
Did you find out?
Also, what are the border guards doing?
They actually didn't stop those fellows? "Count Dempsey asked with a gloomy face as he walked out, preparing to issue orders.
He wasn't a useless noble city lord and naturally understood that since the enemy dared to invade Meiro City, they at least had a certain amount of confidence in their own strength.
If he didn't deal with it properly, even if Meiro City didn't fall, just the little bit of damage that Meiro City suffered from the flames of war was something he couldn't accept.
Hearing his question, the subordinate who came to report had an extremely ugly expression. After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he replied with a bitter smile, "We found out.
According to the information sent back by the spies, the enemy came from the Southwest and hung … hung the flag of New Flyer … "
Count Dempsey's footsteps suddenly stopped, his eyes wide open and his face full of shock.
"New Flyer?
Are you kidding me?
Why is it them?
No, where did they get the guts to invade our Kandla Empire?
They're just a merchant guild! "
The subordinate had a bitter smile.
He was also filled with doubts about this question, so how could he wait for Count Dempsey to answer it?
"No … …" Count Dempsey suddenly trembled as he suddenly thought of the rumours about the New Flyer in the circle of the empire's nobles.
Half a year ago, most nobles of the empire's nobles were familiar with the New Flyer and the various household magic machines that made their lives.
When the nobles gathered to discuss the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, most of them would talk about the high grade Magic Sedans the Frestech Chamber of Commerce produced. They would brag that they could buy a custom Magic Sedan from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
As for the military strength of the New Flyer, although the nobles of the Kandla Empire had heard about it, most of them only knew that the New Flyer made some powerful military magic machines that were very useful on the battlefield.
As for how useful and strong these military magic machines were, other than the nobles of the army headquarters, there weren't many people who knew.
But now that half a year had passed, in the war that the Kandla Empire had invaded the Kingdom of Ruhr, the New Flyer had truly displayed its unparalleled strength.
The New Flyer's guards had directly caused the Kandla Empire's army of one hundred and eighty thousand to be completely routed in less than two months. In the end, the invasion was declared a failure and they helplessly returned to their country.
After that, the New Flyer stirred up storms in other parts of the Sines, but the empire had always remained silent and never made a sound.
This allowed all the nobles of the empire to recognize a fact. It was that the empire's army headquarters had admitted that they didn't have the ability to defeat the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, so they remained silent in front of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
So all the nobles of the Kandla Empire learned of the strength of the New Flyer for the first time. When they discussed the New Flyer, most of them focused on the strange military magic machines that the New Flyer made.
Although Count Dempsey was the lord of a remote territory in the southwest province of the empire, he was still a noble in the end, so he was very sensitive to this news.
So he had long since learned of the military strength of the New Flyer from various sources, but he had never thought that there would be a day when he would actually face the powerful strength of the New Flyer.
In the end, the New Flyer was only a merchant company. No matter how powerful its military strength was, no matter how unstoppable its guards were, how could it possibly invade the Kandla Empire?
Count Dempsey's heart was filled with doubts, but now wasn't the time to be doubtful.
He frowned and thought seriously for a while, then waved his hand at his subordinate, indicating for him to come closer.
"Immediately send someone to ask for help from the governor's office."
His subordinate was startled.
Ask for help?
Meiro City was the most important city on the southwest border of the Kandla Empire. It had thirty thousand regular soldiers of the empire as guards, and it had also recently been equipped with many military magic machines developed by the military headquarters. In terms of defensive strength, it could be called the strongest city in the southwest province aside from the governor's office.
Why did the Lord City Lord immediately ask for help when he heard that the enemy was the New Flyer?
Although it was said that the New Flyer's guards were strong, it shouldn't be that strong, right?
Seeing that his subordinate was still in a daze, Count Dempsey glared at him and angrily roared, "What are you in a daze for?
Why aren't you going! "
His subordinate was surprised, but he quickly replied before turning to leave.
Count Dempsey didn't stop at all as he left the City Lord's Manor. He took the Magic Sedan that he had just bought four months ago and quickly headed to the garrison camp outside the city.
However, before he even reached the city gates, he suddenly heard several shocking explosions outside the city. It shook his Magic Sedan and made his scalp turn numb.
Count Dempus raised his head in shock and saw that the sky outside the city had already been dyed red by the dazzling flames. It was as though even the clouds had been burned.
After being stunned for two seconds, Count Dempsey suddenly trembled and instantly reacted.
The direction the flames came from, wasn't it the direction of the garrison camp outside the city!
Count Dempus hurriedly opened the door and rushed up the city wall beside the city gate like a madman. He raised his eyes and looked into the distance.
Three kilometers outside the city, it was the camp of the thirty thousand regular army stationed near Meiro City.
Now, looking from afar, the camp was completely surrounded by flames. Only the thunderous sounds of explosions and faint shouts could be heard from afar.
Count Dempsey was stunned for a while before grabbing the Meiro City garrison officer who had rushed over after hearing the news.
"Immediately send people over to see the situation, as soon as possible!
Do you understand? "
The garrison officer's fat face was covered in cold sweat. He quickly nodded and turned to arrange people.
Count Dempsey turned to look in the direction of the distant camp and his heart filled with a chill.
Although he had already heard that the New Flyer only had around twenty thousand guards, he didn't doubt that with the strength of the New Flyer guards, they could easily take care of the thirty thousand soldiers.
What really made his heart turn cold was that when he received the news of the New Flyer's invasion, the New Flyer had already arrived at Meiro City in the blink of an eye. They had even come into contact with Meiro City's greatest reliance.
This kind of speed was simply unheard of.
He could instantly tell that before the Governor Manor sent reinforcements, the other side would have already taken care of the garrison.
If they came to attack Meiro City, what would he use to stop them?
Perhaps it was in response to Count Dempsey's guess, but after a few minutes, there was a group of strange looking Magic Cars that came out of the camp covered in flames and smoke, quickly heading towards Meiro City.
Looking at it, this team was made up of several hundred Magic Cars, but with the campsite behind them that was covered in flames, it made people feel like they were demons that had charged out of hell, making people terrified.
Count Dempsey took the binoculars from the garrison officer and saw the flags flying above the Magic Cars. It was the famous Xinfei flag of the New Flyer with half a wing.
"It really is those fellows!" Count Dempsey gritted his teeth as his face filled with uncertainty.
The thirty thousand soldiers outside the city couldn't be counted on. Meiro City only had five thousand soldiers and two thousand guards from the City Lord Manor, so there were only seven thousand soldiers left.
Although there were some homemade Magic Cannons from the army headquarters on the city walls, how could these imitations of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's Magic Cannons compare to the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's genuine goods?
However, as the Meiro City's City Lord, he couldn't give up on resisting.
Otherwise if the army headquarters investigated him in the future, just based on this, he would be stripped of his noble status and would even spend the rest of his life in prison.
"Damn!
No matter what, this is still our Dempsey Family's territory, how could we give it up this easily! "
Count Dempus fiercely cursed in his heart. He turned to the city guard beside him and ordered in a deep voice, "Close all city gates and prepare to defend!"
The guard officer looked at the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's Magic Cars flying the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's flag in a panic. He thought that even the thirty thousand soldiers couldn't stop the attack of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, so with just the few thousand guards, could they stop them?
"What are you in a daze for?" Count Dempsey kicked the garrison officer's butt.
"Let me tell you, if you're afraid to fight, do you believe that I won't cut you down right now!"
The garrison officer's expression turned cold and he quickly took back his expression. He gave a salute to Count Dempsey before preparing to defend the city.
But when he turned and before he could take two steps, he heard the whistles of his subordinates in the distance.
Turning to look, he found several flames flying out of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's formation in the distance. They instantly crossed two kilometers and hit the high walls of Meow City.
"Hong, hong, hong, hong."
Countless explosions sounded in the ears of Count Dempsey and the garrison officer. Then they were shocked to find that the city walls ….. had collapsed … …
