After entering February, the rocs in the northern part of the Bailin plane hovered over the northern occupied area more frequently. They would swoop down from the sky as long as they found the right position for a few seconds. Many of the rocs attacked cattle and sheep.
, there are also bad-tempered Peng birds that will actively attack herdsmen.
The feathers of these rocs are dark yellow in color, their wingspan can reach seven or eight meters wide, and their cries can be heard in the sky.
The huge body can easily pull an ox weighing nearly a thousand pounds into the sky. The sharp beak is like a sharp pickaxe. If an adult ox is pecked by it, its brains will burst and die immediately.
The rocs have the ability to perceive the wind element. When they flap their wings, small vortices will roll up in the air. These wind whirlpools are mixed with wind blades that can split their bodies.
They can fly freely in the sky, so they are one of the most difficult groups of monsters to deal with in the Bailin plane.
It is said that these rocs contain a trace of the blood power of the thunderbirds.
In recent times, the rocs have really brought a lot of trouble to the people of the empire living in the northern part of the Bailin plane.
The herdsmen on the grassland live a miserable life. Herdsmen are constantly attacked by rocs, and there are even cases where cattle are frightened and rush into the Grand Canyon.
The appearance of a large number of rocs on the grassland is a good thing for adventure groups. Many adventure groups have begun to try to disguise themselves as lone herdsmen on the grassland, or pull cattle and sheep to the grassland and set traps under them.
Animal traps, as long as the bird dares to rush down and pounce on the cattle or sheep, its claws will be locked tightly in the animal trap. Some animal traps will even clamp the bird's head on the spot.
Although the feathers of the roc are dark yellow, they are highly sought after by the ladies of the empire. Many ladies like to fill their hats with flowers and feathers, and the roc feathers are undoubtedly one of the most precious feathers.
As the adventure group continued to capture rocs, these feathers were put into exquisite wooden boxes by merchants and made into boxes of exquisite gifts. It is said that this kind of feathers are very popular in the Bena Province.
As the southwest wind blows on the grassland, it means that spring is coming soon.
When the ice and snow melt and everything recovers, the great rivers and lakes occupied by red-backed giant tortoises in the southern part of the Three Rivers Plain are bound to face a battle.
Because in the winter, Lord Surdak's army wiped out the ghost-striped red ants in the Dark Worm Valley, this shocked the nobles of the Bailin plane and also made them realize that the lords led by Surdak
The army is powerful.
Just as Surdak's lord army was actively planning to encircle and suppress the red-backed giant tortoises in the southern part of the plain, groups of lord armies from the White Forest plane passed through the grassland full of withered grass and snow, and began to move towards the west of the Three Rivers Plain.
Gathering side by side, the lords of the Bailin plane wanted to take this opportunity to lead the army from the grassland into the Three Rivers Plain, and also get a small piece of this fat cake.
For a moment, the aborigines who had been living a peaceful grazing life on the grassland suddenly discovered that cavalry teams appeared in the vast wilderness almost at the same time. Those gorgeous flags were fluttering in the wind and making loud noises.
.
The lords of the Bailin plane have no shortage of war horses. These cavalrymen all ride the finest Gubo war horses.
The cavalry marched toward the Three Rivers Plain in a mighty manner. Following the cavalry was a group of businessmen accompanying the army. These businessmen not only brought enough supplies for the war, but were also responsible for escorting the families of senior officers of the cavalry regiment. They even
They took careful and thoughtful care of the food, clothing, housing and transportation of these family members, setting up temporary tents, three meals a day, etc.
This kind of plane war is basically launched by the lords voluntarily, so the expenses along the way are basically borne by the lords. However, there are also many officers of the lord army who will pay out of their own pockets to maintain a combat team of their own, so that they can gain in battle.
After the victory, the officers would be able to obtain most of the spoils of victory. They went to the Three Rivers Plain this time with the belief that they would win.
Precisely because most military expenses are paid out of one's own pocket, it has become very common for officers to take their families with them on expeditions.
The closest town to the Three Rivers Plain is the town of Plantos, which is located at the eastern pass of the Thorny Mountains. However, from Plantos Town, you have to continue walking eastward for about four days to reach the Three Rivers Plain.
The lords of the Bailin plane are marching towards the Three Rivers Plain in a mighty manner. Even the town of Plantos is affected, and a large number of caravans will use the town of Plantos as a transit point.
Regarding the fact that the lords of the Bailin plane led their troops to the Three Rivers Plain, the troops stationed in the towns in the north of the Lutheran Army immediately reported to the Great Swordsman of Chester and Lord Surdak.
Although Great Swordsman Chester had long noticed the movements of these lords' armies at the Wilkes City Military Headquarters, he did not expect that the lords of the Bailin plane would go to the Three Rivers Plain with such a tough attitude.
At the southern end of the Three Rivers Plain is the very famous Thousand Island Lake in the Bailin plane. Surdak's lord army has no plans to open up the Thousand Island Lake.
Great Swordsman Chester originally thought that these lords were going to take advantage of this east wind to attack Bailin Qiandao Lake, but Bailin lords were not so courageous. Their army did not even reach the south of the Three Rivers Plain directly, but wanted to
Borrow the road deep into the plains.
As a result, Lord Surdak's army, which was actively preparing for war in the upper reaches of the Three Rivers Plain, sent several lords' armies to the border of the Three Rivers Plains overnight to block the lords' army from the Bailin plane on the prairie.
As early as January, Surdak announced that after occupying the Dark Worm Valley in this plane war, he would give up the right to allocate territory in the Three Rivers Plain. This also meant that the other sixteen lord armies that followed Surdak on the expedition would
will divide this vast plain.
The lords of the Bailin plane suddenly intervened, seriously affecting the vested interests of these lords' armies.
The commanders of the lord army mobilized nearly 20,000 cavalry in the west of the Three Rivers Plain and set up a line of defense on the east bank of the Eisen River, completely blocking the Bai Lin lord army from the prairie.
All the cavalry stood on the sandy hillocks on the river bank, holding knight's spears in their hands, silently watching the Bailin Lords' coalition who were preparing to cross the glacier.
At the moment when Lord Bai Lin's cavalry was about to cross the river, the entire ice-blocked Eisen River suddenly made a loud cracking sound. The ice on the ice continued to explode, and the fine ice fragments that flew out formed a small-scale iceberg.
During the ice storm, the cavalrymen of Lord Bailin's army who arrived at the river bank were completely stunned by the sound of explosions.
The war horses walking in front were frightened by the explosions and stood up one after another. The knights, holding their reins in one hand and shields in the other, turned around and retreated to the river bank.
In the blink of an eye, a huge crack appeared on the originally frozen river, and countless ice fragments splashed onto the river.
Even the river water under the ice surged onto the surface of the river, leaving the Eisen River in a mess.
When the lords of the Bailin plane saw the lord army of Surdak on the other side of the river, their faces turned pale with anger, and some even cursed at the other side of the river.
Lord Surdak's army expressed its attitude. The explosion of the ice in the river was to prohibit the Lord's army from the Bailin plane from entering the Three Rivers Plain. If Lord Bailin's army wanted to enter again, it would be tantamount to declaring war on Lord Surdak.
Although the lords were extremely angry, when they saw the knights on the opposite bank of the river, they did not have the courage to engage in battle with Lord Surdak's army. In addition, combined with Surdak's arrogant actions in the past, the grievances of the lords of the Bailin plane were finally resolved.
The accumulation reached its peak. Although the Lord's Army failed to enter the Three Rivers Plain, one letter after another of reports was once again sent to the House of Representatives of Bena Province.
This time, the lords of the Bailin plane suffered heavy losses. Not only did they have to pay for the military expenses for the expedition to the Three Rivers Plains, but they also had to take over the large amount of military supplies purchased later by the military merchant group.
In fact, some lords also proposed to go all the way south along the Aisen River, from the edge of Qiandao Lake into the southern part of the plain, and compete with Lord Surdak's army for the territory there.
But most of the lords believed that the army could not deal with those red-backed giant tortoises, so there was no more trouble after this plan was proposed.

Bena Provincial House of Representatives Building
Armand walked into the Speaker's office carrying a stack of documents. The maid was cleaning the room. He walked to the desk and deliberately placed more than a dozen reports about Count Surdak on Speaker Fred's desk to be conspicuous.
location.
This time, the lords of the Bailin plane jointly reported it. Apparently, Surdak did something in the Bailin plane that aroused public outrage.
Armand prayed in his heart that Surdak could receive some punishment, even if he was allowed to stay in the Ganbu plane.
Although he had completely given up on the position of consul of Helensa, it was a rare joy to see Surdak punished.
After placing the official documents, he poured a cup of hot tea for Speaker Fred. This elderly man knew how to take care of his body, and the women around him were constantly changing.
Armand tidied up his desk and returned to the desk outside.
Speaker Fred has a total of four assistants. Armand is not the assistant who ranks at the top and is most used by Speaker Fred, but he is not the most marginalized either.
He wants to become the most important person beside Speaker Fred Dunstan, but there is still a long way to go.
After a while, Speaker Fred, accompanied by two other assistants, hurried to the office here.
Facing these reports, Speaker Fred could only rub his forehead with his hands.
Close your eyes and ponder for a moment...
Afterwards, the Speaker just casually glanced at these report letters, without even looking at what was written in them. He selected a report letter with neat handwriting and gorgeous wording, signed it, and gave instructions.
The assistant next to him sent this report letter again to Duke Newman who was far away in the plane of Warsaw.
Even if the things mentioned in the report letter are true, do we really need to deal with Surdak?
Thinking too much...
There is simply no way to deal with this. Now the entire Green Empire is eager for news of the victory of the plane war. Lord Suldak is simply outstanding in the Bena Province, and he has the support of powerful warlords behind him. How can he be so casual?
