When the Marquis de Balan visited the hospital wearing a fear suit, everyone felt as if they were seeing the God of Death, and were all frightened. They were afraid that the other party would stop at their bed and shake their heads again.
But as long as the Marquise can pass, everyone feels inexplicably at ease. It's not enough if they haven't looked at it. They have to be glanced at to fill their hearts with this feeling of peace of mind.
Therefore, the usefulness of the Marquise's stay was greater than anyone imagined. It also greatly strengthened the southern defense line of the Fengdi Mountains and the field hospital lineup at the base camp. In a relatively short period of time, the number of injured in the hospital was reduced.
The person returned to the battlefield.
In the past, injuries were simply treated with magic or divine spells. When facing serious injuries, the consumption of magic and divine spells may be doubled or even fail due to various unknown reasons. This is also the reason for using these
Difficulties with supernatural powers.
However, with the use of medical skills, the injured body can be repaired and perfected. Magic and divine skills are only used to accelerate recovery in the final stage and do not involve the treatment part, so the consumption of both will be greatly reduced.
This is just like why Mi Di insists that when using the resurrection spell, the corpse must be kept intact and cannot be desecrated, that is, in a state of being fragmented or missing limbs. Because it is the most labor-saving to use the resurrection spell when it is intact.
If only one hand or a head is left, it is not impossible to use the resurrection spell to completely resurrect the person. But it may be that the Lord of Life must come in person to create a god.
Traced.
In this way, with magic and divine skills as the backbone, and combined with medical skills to solve the treatment part, it can be said that as long as people are not shattered to pieces on the spot and die to the point of death, they can return to the battlefield without a long period of training.
This is a good thing for both soldiers and generals.
The importance of veterans cannot be overemphasized. For generals, ensuring and continuing the combat effectiveness of the army is more important than anything else.
What they are fighting is not just one battle. It can be predicted that it will be one continuous battle after another. It may last for decades, and may even require the last drop of human blood to be shed.
As for collecting the remains of corpses, cutting off the intact parts, sewing them into a "complete" person, and then using the resurrection technique. This idea was proven to be unfeasible a long time ago.
Because what comes alive is not a specific person. It is the result of the integration of the original owner of all the body parts, his memory and personality.
The most common situation is that the person who comes back to life will become a madman. In other words, this does not belong to resurrection, but should be classified as necromancy, that is, the production of stitched corpses.
The details involved involve the lost soul theory.
All bodies retain the memory of their lives. Spinning the limbs of another person to a disabled living person is like adding some parts to his complete soul that did not originally belong to him. But because the soul of a living human being is already complete,
Being in a strong position, it will not be easily contaminated by foreign objects.
But stitching a corpse together does not mean creating an empty shell and stuffing a complete soul into it. Things like ghosts and ghosts are undead creatures in the classification of the Lost World, which are completely different from souls.
Two different things. In more technical terms, ghosts and ghosts are defective souls.
While the corpse pieces are being sewn together, the soul also becomes mixed. It is not said which part of the original owner can take the dominant position and dominate the revived sutured corpse.
In order to control the stitched corpse, the necromancer usually destroys the sanity of the soul in the corpse, and then uses spells and laws to control its actions. Therefore, the stitched corpse is either stupid or crazy, and cannot have the same consciousness as a normal person.
Of course, after the sutured corpses wake up, their consciousness can be trained and gradually return to normal. But how long the training will take and how long it will take to be considered "normal" is not easy to define.
Take Fen, the former lich and former demon king, as an example. Among the stitched corpses she made, only the stupidest Stone is still loyal to her.
The other Stitched Corpses who were relied on as arms and appointed as personal guards all betrayed him. It was because Fen retained too much wisdom for the other Stitched Corpses.
This is why the use of resurrection has become so important at this time when medical skills are emerging.
In this era, it is still necessary to be more cautious. You cannot just find some parts and restore the integrity of the body to resurrect the person.
Back to reality, in fact, at the beginning, the old Mr. Kawei was opposed to his granddaughter staying on the battlefield. Even if the base camp belonged to the rear, it was still not safe enough in the eyes of the old man.
However, he had exaggerated the reputation of his granddaughter before. With Marquis Balan sitting in command and without, the morale of the soldiers was basically two extremes.
Not to mention the people brought by her granddaughter, they are really capable. Compared with those little doctors who also have the name of doctors, the Marquise's team has more knowledge and can use their skills more flexibly to treat people.
All wounded.
And the most important thing is that my granddaughter seems to have stepped out of the so-called "past" and reintegrated into the society where she interacts with people. At least, doing these things does not make her resist, and it also satisfies her self-confidence.
Isn't this better than living alone for the rest of your life?
So for such a trivial matter as whether it is dangerous or not, it is up to the grandfather to replace her dead father and eliminate all signs of danger.
After weighing the pros and cons, Old Kawei Gong agreed to let his granddaughter stay. Of course, the security and protection were also strengthened a lot. At least that team has not been used since it was formed.
The Marquis Guards of Lan Territory were directly pulled over.
In addition to the number of people who must adhere to the establishment, their training requirements and equipment standards are all in accordance with the Duke's Guard. The requirement for their first mission is that it doesn't matter if all of them die, their families will have their own families to take care of them. But women
The Marquis must not suffer any damage!
However, the worries of old Mr. Kawei, as well as the worries of most people who both expected and were afraid of being hurt, did not come true in the end.
Winter has passed and spring has arrived. As everything recovers, the snow in the areas around the Fengdi Mountains begins to melt.
Perhaps because of the curse of being close to the mountains, or simply because of the high altitude, the snow here did not begin to melt as soon as spring entered. Instead, it took some time.
However, the areas where the snow begins to melt are outside the scope of the curse, that is, under the foot of the mountain. All the built defense lines, tall city gates, and standing magic towers are within the scope of the melting snow.
As for the cursed mountainous areas, there is constant wind and snow all year round. Even in summer, when the weather is the hottest on the plains, the wind and snow are still howling on the Fengdi Mountains.
But compared to winter, the power of wind and snow is still much weaker, and the snow seems to not exist. As long as the wind and snow from the sky fall to the ground, it will not take long to melt, and eventually converge into gurgling water, and then into a stream.
, forming a river, flowing down the river, irrigating the land downstream.
Therefore, if the coalition of demons and orcs wants to pick a good day to fight, they can do so in spring. Because if they continue to wait, they will not be able to wait until the snow stops snowing on the mountains.
However, Old Kawei Gong and all the sergeants and soldiers who were on guard did not wait for the enemy's attack. Instead, they waited for news that surprised them.
The allied forces of demons and orcs moved, but not in the direction everyone expected.
They did not cross the Fengdi Mountain Range again and attack the defense line dominated by the Gewana Empire. They also did not look back and headed towards the still cold Sulitang Empire. Instead, they chose to go west!
Judging from the geography of the demon-occupied area, to the north is the Suritan Empire, which has a large area of uninhabited land and is still in a cold winter climate. To the south is the Gwana Empire, which is densely populated but has well-run defense lines and dangerous mountains.
Fighting towards the north will not bring any benefits to the demons and orcs, and they will have to go head-to-head with an empire. Fighting towards the south may have the greatest benefits, but the cost will also be the highest. Because this is not just a head-on confrontation, it is simply kicking the iron.
.
However, the directions they can go are not only north and south, but also east and west.
Whether heading east or west, they may have to cross large areas of uninhabited land and some dangerous terrain.
For example, to the east is another small mountain range extending from the Fengdi Mountain Range. It is shorter in height, but there is no curse on this small mountain range. To the west, you will encounter a large river that leads to the sea. There is no need to cross it by boat.
, it is impossible to pass.
But as long as these terrain difficulties are passed, there will be large swaths of land with rich population resources. The countries on these lands are in the same original situation as the area they currently occupy. There are many small countries without any strong unity.
Whole strength.
The reason why we chose the west rather than the east is because if we can't reach far from the east, we will encounter the third empire again. That is the Haider Empire!
Precisely because the buffer area in the middle was not large, the Haider Empire sent people to join the battle early in the hope of attracting the enemy to other directions, or at least blocking them from outside the country's borders.
【In view of the general environment,
If you go west, you will eventually encounter the Vader military state, which is also in the imperial order, but the number and population of the small countries in the middle are several times that of the east. So in terms of resources and difficulty, demons and orcs
It is very reasonable for the coalition forces to choose to march west.
So are people in the west prepared?
The actions of the coalition of demons and orcs are based on the news that the new fast airship troops regularly ventured across the Wind Emperor Mountains. I am afraid that the human countries in the west do not know such news.
Although as soon as they got the news, they sent the news through the forum and sent official envoys on airships to the small countries to the west of the demon-occupied area. But no one could guarantee how effective it would be.
These small countries did not do anything at all during the more than a year since they started the war.
The country's regular army may not dare to tamper with it. But the young people in the country, as well as some adventurers, as long as they are willing, joined the original Southern Front of the Suritan Empire early on, and then suffered a big loss.
If it hadn't been for the big river, I'm afraid that during the great retreat, the allied forces of demons and orcs would have extended the battlefield to their doorstep.
Now that the demon coalition is blocked by the defense line led by the Gwana Empire on the Wind Emperor Mountains, it is only reasonable for them to try to find other directions to break through.
Under such circumstances, the big river can no longer be regarded as a natural barrier that cannot be broken through. And whether those small countries that have lost strength before can shoulder the important task of blocking the demon coalition after a short recuperation. It can be said that no one is optimistic about it.
