734, The Land of Fire on the Ice Plane

The [Segran Lust] plane, which is what players call the ice plane, is about 1/3 the size of the main plane.

The rulers of the ice plane are the same as the main plane, they are humans.

A long time ago, there were no humans on the ice plane, only some indigenous wild animals, somewhat similar to the dinosaur era of Blue Star.

Later, an ancient powerful man from the main plane who was good at interstellar travel discovered this plane before Bard. With a no-waste attitude, he forcibly transported a group of "ancestors" to live in this plane.

The "ancestors" spread leaves on the ice plane, and gradually became the rulers of this plane with their wisdom far beyond that of wild animals.

Although 1/5 of the Ice Plane is covered by ice and snow and is extremely cold, there are still many areas with warm climate and abundant rainfall near the equator.

Humans on the ice plane also mainly live in these areas, competing with other animals for living space and territory.



The largest human country in this plane is called the "Land of Fire". It is located near the equator, and its area is about a quarter of the Plantagenet Empire.

It is called the "Land of Fire" because its citizens have a fanatical and paranoid worship of flames and believe that "fire" is the cornerstone of human survival against the cold winter.

"Fire" is also the totem of faith for everyone in this country.

However, for now, there is no peace in the "Land of Fire".

In the eastern part of the Country of Fire, a massive peasant uprising is beginning.

The reason why the peasant uprising occurred is essentially similar to the cause of the peasant uprising on Blue Star - the ruling group extorted excessive taxes and was greedy. The fruits of labor of ordinary farmers were robbed, and they lived under high pressure. They worked hard for a month to save food.

I can barely support myself.

At this time, as long as there is a major disaster or a food shortage, the originally overwhelmed social system will collapse in an instant.

When farmers have no food to eat, they can only walk out of their homes with weapons (farm tools), and I will rob whoever has food.

Thus began a peasant uprising.



There is a medium-sized city in the middle of the Land of Fire called [White Stone City].

Baishi City has just experienced the war caused by the peasant uprising.

Now the gates of Baishi City are open, and there are countless corpses strewn outside and under the city walls, and rivers of blood flow.

The city was filled with the sounds of burning, killing, looting, and the cries of women.

Many houses were burned to ashes in the raging fire.

The peasant rebels in fancy clothes were celebrating their victory on the streets of the city.

They held bright weapons in their right hands and "trophies" they had stolen from the residents of the city in their left hands.

Moreover, they did not care at all about the life and death of the residents in the city. Once they saw something good, they would rush to grab it. When they saw a beautiful woman, they would immediately chase after it.

When the peasants first started their uprising, it was to resist exploitation and it was a just cause.

But gradually, they lost themselves in the stolen gold and silver treasures, and turned their butcher knives on civilians like them, and the dragon slayer gradually turned into an evil dragon.



In a luxurious mansion in the center of White Rock City, the leader of the Peasant Rebel Army, Duke Glen Flame, sat on the main seat of the hall, frowning.

There were still 6 confidant generals standing under the main seat, and none of their faces looked very good at this time.

Blue Star people would be very surprised if they saw this scene - Duke Gulen is obviously a duke, why did he become the leader of the peasant uprising army? Shouldn't the peasant uprising army resist nobles like him who oppress the peasants?

However, the fact is that the situation of Blue Star cannot be applied to the situation of Fire Nation.

In Blue Star, the gap between people is very small. Even a beggar like Zhu Yuanzhang still has a chance to aspire to the throne of emperor;

But in the ice plane, this is a high martial plane.

The gap in human strength in the high martial plane is very large. Even if 100,000 ordinary people are armed with bows and arrows, they cannot defeat a fifth-level strong man who can fly.

There is absolutely no point in having too many people.

In this case, if an uprising wants to succeed, it must obtain the support of high-ranking powerful people.

As an ambitious prince with a large private army, Duke Gulen had long wanted to replace the emperor.

After the peasant uprising unfolded vigorously, he actively contacted the leaders of the peasant uprising army and used coercion and inducement to adopt them as dogs.

And he actively promoted himself among the peasants, gave them favorable conditions, and led the peasant uprising army to attack the emperor's direct territory.



Everything was going very smoothly originally. Duke Gulen easily conquered half of the country and was about to go straight to the imperial city to unify the country.

But just after he captured White Rock City, a huge problem was placed in front of him. This problem was that they didn't have much food, and the cold winter was coming soon.



Duke Grant looked at the few confidants sitting down, including the army's logistics chief [Hunter].

"Hunter." Duke Grant looked at him: "How much food do we have?"

"Back to your lord, Duke." Hunter knelt down on one knee and replied respectfully: "The food we have is enough to feed the direct army and the peasant rebel army for 40 days.

If we save a little on food and consume the minimum, we can only survive for a month and a half at most."

"A month and a half?" Duke Grant's frown deepened.

In the entire ice plane, "food" has always been a scarce resource. Halfway through the war and approaching winter, the scarcity of food resources became even more obvious.

"Hermann, what's the gain from the granary in White Rock City?" Duke Grant looked at one of his generals.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty the Duke." General Hermann knelt down on one knee with a pale face:

"The Sanger family in White Rock City and we have a feud. When their family was destroyed, the granary in White Rock City was burned down by them. Now there is nothing left."

"All burned?!" Duke Grant lost his voice, and his face instantly became extremely pale.

Originally, he was counting on capturing Baishi City to relieve the troops who were short of food.

But they didn't expect that the breath didn't slow down at all, and even made them almost "deprived of oxygen"!

"Everyone, the situation is very serious now." Duke Grant looked at the generals below with a serious face: "The four-month 'extreme winter' will come soon, and we have not yet stored enough food.

If we cannot solve the food problem within half a month, this peasant uprising will probably fail!"

The winter in the Ice Plane is much scarier than the winter in the Main Plane and Blue Star.

At that time, there would be temperatures as low as minus 30 or 40 degrees Celsius, and waist-deep snow, even in the relatively warm Land of Fire.

It is impossible to fight in such bad weather. We can only store food in advance and think of ways to survive the winter, and wait until the snow melts in spring before fighting again.

And now they don’t have much food left, so it may be difficult to survive this winter!
