Chapter 5596 Half of the Country
The defenders in the city were not well integrated to begin with, and some had just surrendered. They surrendered or fled after being beaten.
In addition, the vines of the magic vine stretched out everywhere to attack them, and soon these people were scattered and captured.
In the end, Ye Liuyun and his team fought, and 30,000 people captured 40,000 to 50,000 prisoners.
Ye Liuyun immediately arranged a teleportation array to send these prisoners back first, and asked Ye Mingxin to send people to defend the city.
Then he continued to lead the team to easily capture the remaining two castles of the family.
The defenders in the remaining two castles were less than 10,000, and they could not stop them.
Almost all of them surrendered without much fighting after breaking the city.
The clan leader only thought of surrendering to Ye Liuyun at this time, but Ye Liuyun called Chi Lian to suck him dry and extract his soul to refine it.
He surrendered after the battle was over, which was obviously opportunistic. Even if such a person was a strong man in the Xuandao realm, Ye Liuyun would not bother to keep him.
After Ye Liuyun finished setting up the defense array and teleportation array of the three castles, he handed it over to Ye Mingxin to take over.
He returned with the guards who participated in the battle, and replaced them with 30,000 fresh guards, and continued to move towards the next target.
This time the target was slightly changed to the force that attacked them before.
As a result, when Ye Liuyun arrived, that force had no resistance and they easily took down two castles.
Ye Liuyun was absolutely too relaxed, and he attacked again and took down another force that attacked them.
That force had three castles and had a slightly stronger resistance. Ye Liuyun took it down and was tempered enough in the battle before leading the team back.
He went out and took down eight more castles. Now they have 25 castles in their hands.
This number has accounted for nearly half of the castle area.
However, they changed their target this time. The original target was the three castles in the center of the castle area, which they did not attack.
The family also felt a sense of crisis at this moment. While expanding two castles outward, they were also accelerating integration.
Ye Mingxin couldn't take care of them now, so he could only consolidate the eight castles he had just conquered.
Ye Liuyun and the others also began to practice and improve, and no one attacked them for the time being.
So Ye Liuyun also gave Ye Mingxin an idea: "Negotiate with them and ask them to give up the three castles.
Just say that we only want to occupy half of the country, and they are in the way. If they don't give up the place, we will concentrate all our efforts to beat them away!
Then mobilize some Xuandao Realm strongmen to scare them around them!"
"Will that work?" Ye Mingxin was still a little skeptical.
"All is fair in war! Let's try it first, and if it doesn't work, we can think of another way! If it works, it's just a waste!"
Ye Liuyun also said. He didn't know if it would work, but just suggested that she try it.
So Ye Mingxin arranged fifty Xuandao Realm strongmen to negotiate with the other party, and also attacked around the other party's castle to intimidate.
The other party couldn't take out fifty Xuandao Realm strongmen. They didn't even have half of them.
Moreover, they have lost their strong men, and they will not have high-end combat power in the future, and will soon be annexed by other families.
They also know that their position is the center of the entire castle area.
If they don't let them out, the Ye family will definitely do their best to take them down.
So they simply give up the castle to avoid a war between the two sides. They can also take this opportunity to make friends with the Ye family.
And they also have two castles that they have just taken down to move, so they will not have no place to stay.
So the Ye family took over the three castles without bloodshed, and completely occupied half of the castle area.
"Is this okay?" Ye Mingxin didn't expect that Ye Liuyun's bold idea could succeed.
"Or they are not strong enough, and they are unsure! They just took down two castles, and their strength must have weakened a lot.
And they need to organize personnel and resources. The internal is now a mess. I dare not bet that we don't have the strength to fight them!"
Ye Liuyun also analyzed.
But no matter what, they got three castles for free and picked up a big bargain.
Ye Liuyun also rushed over and rearranged the formations of those castles and connected them with the Ye family.
After that, Ye Liuyun stayed here and did not return.
Ye Mingxin also moved the 60,000 guards and Xuandao Realm masters to the central castle. Later, the Huanlou was also moved there.
This place also became the center of their branch family.
Ye Mingxin also began to organize the personnel and resources of each department while expanding the central castle to build it into a big city.
Now their dominant position has been established and no one can shake it. They have also begun to lay the foundation for future unification.
However, they announced to the outside world that they would only fight here to stop, so as to avoid other families from uniting.
Among the remaining families, the Shangguan family is the strongest.
When Ye Liuyun took action, they were not idle either. They took down six more castles and made the entire family like an iron barrel.
Now they have ten castles in a circle, with the center being the main city closest to Wancong Mountain, three castles around it, and six castles outside.
And their guards are also quite special. Each guard carries a beast of a similar level, and their combat power is also very strong.
So the Shangguan family is the strongest force besides the Ye family.
But after they have ten castles, they no longer expand, but keep other families as a buffer zone with the Ye family.
There are also three families, each with five castles. There was a circle on three sides outside the Shangguan family.
There is also a slightly smaller family with only three castles. This family was the one who gave up three castles to them.
After the basic division of spheres of influence was completed, these forces also began to contact each other and form alliances.
The Ye family has received alliance requests from all families.
Some families even suggested uniting with the Ye family to destroy the Shangguan family.
Except for the Shangguan family, every family wants to embrace the Ye family and destroy other families.
Ye Mingxin also wants to unite these small families to deal with the Shangguan family. After all, the Shangguan family is the greatest threat.
But she didn't dare to make up her mind, so she asked Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun only gave her four words: "Distant friendship and close attack!"
But this is also a suggestion. For Ye Liuyun, it doesn't matter whoever hits first.
After they take a break, they will continue to take action.
It's just that he feels that this Shangguan family is not simple. If he controls the Shangguan family, it will also develop so steadily.
He estimated that although the Shangguan family was no longer expanding outwards, they were definitely working hard to develop their own guards.
In particular, their beast-taming characteristics must be fully brought into play. It is even possible for one soldier to lead two or three ferocious beasts.
Ye Mingxin quite listened to Ye Liuyun's suggestion and was the first to agree to an alliance with the Shangguan family.
However, this kind of alliance only temporarily stops attacking each other, and has not yet reached the point of jointly sending troops.
But even so, other families were panicked.
With these two major forces united, there is no room for development.
