When the nearest lord arrived with his troops, what he saw was a dark army with its back against the river, already in formation, and ready to go.
There was no suspense in the first battle after crossing the river. The lords who were able to come to stop the attack only had a few hundred soldiers under their command. The evil camp coalition did not even need to move their main force. The mere movement of their partial forces scared the opponent away.
However, retreating was not the end. The thousand-man orc army tracked the retreating troops and reached the lord's territory. Of course, there was a burst of killing after that, which became the evil camp's first victory.
It's a pity that the young master of this territory has great ambitions, but does not have the corresponding strength. When he ran into the evil camp alliance, he and his foundation were smashed to pieces.
After crossing the river, there was no one to stop them. As if they had discussed it beforehand, all the tribes broke into pieces, like mercury pouring down the ground, and attacked from all directions.
It's not that they don't know that the Vader military empire is coming towards them. But it's not there yet. It's not the behavior of these people to worry about things that haven't happened yet.
Besides, the most important issue at hand is food supplies. They will come to the Western Front just for a bite to eat.
Originally, there was not much food stored for winter and spring. Most of it was intercepted by Lord Abyss on the battlefield in the north of the mountain to supply the multi-ethnic army that assisted the demons. There were even fewer that could be taken away by the Western Route Army.
Along the way, they were actually on the verge of food shortage. Some of the unpopular teams were vaguely targeted by other teams. From time to time, a few people were missing overnight.
He was said to be on the run, but in fact he was secretly killed by his comrades. As for the purpose of the killing, everyone knew it and didn't say anything.
Under such circumstances, if you don't think of ways to raise food, you might have to wait until you starve to death before you start thinking of ways.
Now a fertile land is exposed in front of us without any defense, and the enemy has not yet arrived. If we don't take this opportunity to prepare more food, how can we cope with the upcoming war.
Besides, in the countries on the west side of the mountain range, the population gathering points are scattered, and there are few big cities where people can gather. If you want to raise food, you have to travel more roads and spend more time. This is also the biggest reason why the army spreads out.
Because I have no choice.
Secondly, any gathering point cannot withstand a large army attack. Most people may not have seen the walled city, and the walled city has been broken by the front army. Naturally, the rear army will not be able to harvest any spoils.
Instead of doing this, it is better to disperse the army and do its own thing. As long as we agree with each other, if someone has taken action on a target, the others will find another target and there will be no fighting among themselves.
How many people will be willing to abide by such an agreement is open to question. But at least on the surface, the evil camp clans still abide by the agreement and appear harmonious. After all, there is still a big enemy outside, so don't rush to fight among yourself.
Once the armies of the evil camp are dispersed, it will naturally become a disaster for this land. The armies of the lords from various places cannot be recruited and are irresistible. The militia of the towns alone are vulnerable.
People with lofty ideals among the people, but all the people on the southern front of the Sulitang Empire died before. Those who survived also went to the defense line south of the Fengdi Mountains, or were surrounded by human gatherings in the north of the mountains. The people who were surrounded
He was rescued by an airship and returned to the south of the mountain range.
It can be said that those who originally lived in this land and had the courage to fight against the evil coalition forces have either died or gone to other places to continue their ambitions. Even if they knew that their hometown was in trouble, they were either in the middle of the war and could not escape.
; Or it’s too late to go back.
Most of the people left on this land, even if they are not all old and weak, are young and strong, are selfish. How could such people be able to stop the evil camp's army from wreaking havoc.
This is because the enemy does not want the Japanese to please the Japanese, otherwise these people may directly change the banner. Now it is straightforward. If they want to change, they are not willing to accept it. The requirements are also very clear, the meat can be kept, but the people are useless.
As for financial resources, it would be a waste to keep them for the corpses. Of course, they should be collected together. There are no banknotes in Midi yet. Money is gold, silver, and copper, pots are iron, and knives are steel. Everything that can be taken away is resources.
.
Besides, a large army has come from afar, and their eyes are red with hunger. How can they not eat meat when they only want to recruit a younger brother? This is really the kind of person who wants both people and money, and can have both people and wealth at the same time.
The posture of three feet swept across the land south of the river.
The army of the Vida Military Kingdom has set off, but it will still take time for them to reach this land. The army of Midland these days still mainly marches on two legs. Even if there are war horses and pack horses to assist, it will only speed up the time.
It doesn't arrive in a blink of an eye.
For example, the Gwana Empire uses trucks as troop carriers and can travel very quickly. There are only six regular legions with this ability, and all of them have participated in the war. Only the Emperor's Iron Guard has not left the imperial city. This is considered an empire.
The last line of defense.
Not to mention the private armies of the nobles, even the private armies of the Duke of Kawei family have not completely changed their uniforms. No matter how greedy the other nobles are and want to buy them with money, it is useless if the output of the automobile center cannot keep up.
In addition to the uninterrupted civil and commercial needs, in terms of military affairs, the old Lord Kawei also instructed to first satisfy the regular army of the empire, followed by the nobles.
This is because military personnel carriers have more requirements in terms of durability, performance, and structure. The differences between different vehicles should not be too great, whether it is performance or other aspects. Such requirements are intended to reduce the cost of supply and maintenance.
trouble.
Unlike trucks that are manufactured for civilian or commercial needs, you may build a dozen or so and then have minor modifications. If you build nearly a hundred, the technology will change. Such changes and progress are not allowed to appear on military trucks.
of.
Therefore, not many trucks were built to transport troops. They were distributed throughout the empire and even fewer fell into the hands of nobles.
This is the case for the empire closest to the automobile center. How could the Vader Military State, which did not have relevant technology, mechanize its army?
In fact, except for a few big nobles in the military kingdom, they used connections to obtain cars as big toys for showing off. Most people only know about the existence of "cars" from forums, and not many people have actually seen them.
.
The army of the military country still marches in the old way. Their marching speed is much faster than the armies of other kingdoms or nobles. Even so, it will take some time to reach the war-torn place. The suffering during this period is just that.
Only the local people have to bear it.
It’s not that these people who are facing the pressure of a large army have never thought of resisting, but their strength is too small. Even if the lords mobilize their troops, or all the men in the towns and villages unite independently, facing the coalition forces of the evil camp will still be like a small fight, two or three.
They were defeated and scattered.
They also thought about escaping from the war. But most of them had an unforgettable love for their homeland and refused to leave no matter what. And those local lords who were entrusted with the title were even more unwilling to give up their property. Once the people were gone, the land was occupied, and the land was empty.
What's the use of having a title.
Otherwise, they would hold on until the last moment, naively thinking that they would not be so unlucky and be targeted by a group of evil man-eating creatures. No one who holds this idea would not regret it. When they know that they have no choice but to leave.
, usually it’s too late.
I thought that this kind of suffering would continue until the army of the military country arrived and gave the evil camp coalition a head-on blow. Only then did these evil man-eating creatures learn to restrain themselves. Unexpectedly, an unexpected force joined the war.
On February 12, 750 in the Arian calendar, when the Orc army surrounded a small town and prepared to attack, the bright day was covered by a large shadow. For a moment, the small town and the Orc army
It's like being in the dark night.
Everyone was frightened and looked up to see the source of the shadow. They saw a small island floating above everyone's heads.
People under the shadow cannot see the whole picture, but people far away from here can see this floating island from a distance.
The bottom of the island is not all rocky soil. There are moss and vines growing, and there are even trees growing horizontally, which is also covered with a bit of green. However, there is no such natural scenery on the top of the island. Only high towers can be seen, layer by layer.
Layers upon layers.
However, there is order in the chaos. To a discerning eye, the buildings on the island are like countless magic circles stacked inside each other. No matter how powerful the magician is, he cannot see through the mystery at a glance.
The floating island is a sacred artifact of magical civilization passed down from thousands of years ago. It is one of the five floating islands, and its name is Edda.
The ancient magical civilization was earlier than the Elf Dynasty and the Dwarf Dynasty. At the end of the period, they combined the power of the Elf and the Dwarf to create five secret energy cores, which caused the five land masses to break away from the surface and float into the sky, becoming empty islands.
The magical civilization at that time gathered all precious things and gathered them on the floating island. In the end, the naturally selected people gathered on the island and abandoned everything on the surface, including the civilized government and other losers.
The prosperous magic civilization came to an end. It was neither destroyed by others nor self-destruction. It was just a group of arrogant people who chose to escape the world and cut themselves off from the Mysterious Land. It was similar to the behavior of the silver-bearded dwarves in the Dwarf Empire.
wonderful.
It’s unclear what the facts are. After all, this whole thing happened too long ago, and recorded documents are too rare. People in later generations can only guess what happened at that time based on a few words.
Such stories have been circulating in the Mysterious Land for a long time. For a long time, magicians have been saying that they were taken to the floating island and then released.
It's just that most of these people's statements cannot stand up to scrutiny. In addition to being unable to justify themselves, there are many things they say that are specious. For example, the reasons for being taken up and why they were let down from the floating island. Every time I ask about these things, every time
The answers are all different.
On the one hand, no one can prove that these floating islands are still lost.
Many magicians believe that if the magical civilization was so powerful back then, it would be possible to develop some plane transfer methods and the entire island could escape into an alien plane. Therefore, there is no trace of the floating island in the Lost Land.
Because they left Lost Land long ago.
Regardless of the past speculations, after thousands of years, the floating island has reappeared. Although there is only one, it will not be surprising when the other four islands emerge again.
The appearance of the floating island was certainly not to show off its presence. Countless iron kite-like things flew out from the island, with golden wings and silver feathers, reflecting the light of the sun, flashing and flashing, coming to take lives.
