Chapter 67 High-Level Fire Spirit
Three huge fire snakes easily tore open the magic defense shield set up by the goblin priests, and the large shields in the hands of the goblin spearmen were quickly melted by the scorching fire snakes.
Fire snakes danced on the city walls, and the goblins were burned to ashes with screams.
Although the goblin leader immediately ordered a retreat, the goblins on the city wall still paid a heavy price.
The fire snake disappeared into the air after the goblins retreated.
The high-level fire elf teleported to the city gate and began to smash it with his fists.
The dull sound was like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart. Two and a half minutes later, the city gate was smashed open, and the high-level fire elf was the first to enter the city.
The human army outside the city was a little confused, not knowing whether to follow. Fortunately, the Bloody Knight Ellison reacted first and gave the order to enter the city. Only then did the human army follow the high-level Fire Elf into the city.
The high-level fire elves that entered the city cleared the way for humans for two and a half minutes before they dissipated into the air. Then, the human army faced a difficult street fight.
At first, the human army did not want to destroy too much of the city's facilities, after all, if they were destroyed, they would have to rebuild them, which would cost a lot of money. However, because of this, the human army was very restrained and passive, and was even almost driven out of Laza City by the goblin counterattack.
Seeing this, the Bloody Knight Allison had no choice but to harden his heart and demand to capture the city of Laza regardless of the consequences. The human army then took ruthless action and began to set fire to some houses in some difficult-to-attack street battles, forcing the goblin soldiers hiding in the houses to come out and fight.
However, the fire didn't matter, as it actually burned out many human residents!
Even Zhang Wei had never expected that there were still living human residents in the city occupied by goblins! And it seemed that they were not hidden well by the goblins, but were deliberately arranged by the goblins to live in the city.
Zhang Wei immediately thought of the civilization he had talked about with Shen Mudan. He could only think that it was most likely Shen Mudan who did it. Zhang Wei couldn't help but smile bitterly. If there really was a place for other life under the rule of goblins, would the world really fall under the rule of goblins? Should Zhang Wei object then?
Zhang Wei shook his head vigorously, getting rid of those thoughts from his mind. He decided not to consider those thoughts that were not facts for the time being.
The street fighting in Laza City was very difficult, especially when Zhang Wei and other human troops discovered that the human residents in Laza City had begun to take up arms against them, they became even more surprised.
Faced with this situation, Zhang Wei had to use loudspeaker magic to remind these human residents who voluntarily participated in the city defense battle to lay down their weapons and not make the same mistake again.
As a result, they said directly that the taxes collected from them by goblins were far less than those collected from humans, and that goblins treated them as human beings, while the previous lords did not treat them as human beings at all.
"In their (the lords') eyes, we are just beasts producing dinars!" shouted a human resident.
"Not even as good as animals!" echoed another human resident.
"Vampires, get out of Laza City!" The human residents began to shout in unison. Of course, the vampire they were talking about was not Zhang Wei, but the human lord was a vampire.
The morale of the human army, which had originally thought itself to be an army of justice, suffered a severe blow. The Bloody Knight Ellison was afraid that some of his troops would be bewitched and defect, so he had no choice but to order a withdrawal.
Seeing this, Zhang Wei also led the Dalinmu Guild to retreat with the army. In this way, the first campaign against Laza City ended in failure. What's more terrible is that on the way back to Chaudhary City, many people were discussing what the human residents said. Even a fool knows that it was not the result of brainwashing, but the thoughts of the human residents from the bottom of their hearts.
Bloody Knight Ellison came to Zhang Wei with a headache and asked what to do. The current situation had seriously affected the morale of the army, and he understood the principle of "the first effort will be weak, the second will be weak, and the third will be exhausted". Now that he failed to take it back the first time, it would be even more difficult next time.
Zhang Wei smiled bitterly and said, "This world is really amazing. Vampires and humans are joining forces to attack goblins, and humans are helping goblins resist."
When Bloody Knight Ellison heard this, he knew that Zhang Wei had no solution either. He could only sigh and go back to think of a solution himself.
The defeat of the expeditionary army did not cause any waves in Chaudhry City, because at that time Chaudhry City was already in turmoil due to the news that the human residents of Raza City rebelled against the expeditionary army.
It has to be said that the common people, merchants, adventurers, and so on, suffered from heavy taxes. Some even said that the residents of the kingdom were paying taxes even when they were basking in the sun or breathing.
It can be said that the rebellious behavior of the human residents of Laza City made many people feel itchy.
Count Chaudhry also felt that something was not right and had to declare martial law in Chaudhry City. At the same time, he required all adventurers in the city to return to the noble territories where they were registered, thus easing the security pressure in Chaudhry City.
Just like that, many adventurers who were originally recruited to participate in the defense of Chaudhuri City were treated like garbage and were driven out of Chaudhuri City. Fortunately, the registered place of the Dalinmu Guild was Chaudhuri City, and the members of the Dalinmu Guild were not affected. Moreover, the Dalinmu Guild took the opportunity to absorb a wave of adventurers who did not want to leave Chaudhuri City into the guild.
Regarding the Dalinmu Guild's act of taking advantage of the situation, Count Chaudhry hinted that this was a way of repaying the favor his concubine owed Zhang Wei.
At this moment, Zhang Wei felt more and more that Jiras Maiga was a ruthless person who took advantage of the opportunity to make ruthless remarks. Originally, he was taking advantage of the situation and Count Chaudhry could only suffer in silence. However, after Jiras did this, he was able to clear the relationship between the two parties.
A few days later, the forbidden fruit of Shen Mudan's low-tax conspiracy first exploded in Zhang Wei's town of Rosales.
Because Zhang Wei had been slow to obtain the ownership of Rosales Town, Viscount Rosales was half-hearted in managing the affairs of the territory. As a result, when the news that the people of Laza City had rebelled because of taxes reached Rosales Town, Viscount Rosales did not immediately refute the rumors or take coercive measures.
As a result, the residents, merchants, and adventurers of Rosales Town united in rebellion and drove Viscount Rosales and his officials out of Rosales Town.
The reason why Zhang Wei and others were able to learn this news was because when Viscount Rosales fled to Chaudhry City with his subordinates, Zhang Wei and others learned about it from Viscount Rosales's crying...
