Lord of War

In the southern part of the Millennium Covenant Empire, there were originally only six provinces and eleven aristocratic dominions, and further south is a primitive land. The emperor of the fourth millennium covenant empire was so happy that he exhausted all the resources of the treasury and built four huge armies, attacking in four directions, southeast, northwest, and trying to dominate the entire southern continent. This was the commander of the four legions at the beginning. He was the first four Duke of Sidden.

  At the beginning, the war went smoothly, but not long after, the Four Route Army encountered troubles one after another, which caused the imperial territory expansion to be unable to be carried out smoothly.

For example, the Northern Legion was sniped secretly from the Emilia Empire; while the Eastern Legion was frustrated by the war in the Warcraft Canyon; the Western Legion encountered Satagastan, who already had a dragon knight seated at the time. The entire Principality fought back.

   However, it is the Southern Army that suffered the most damage.

The Southern Legion, the Duke of Nandern at the time, went all the way south, and it was quite smooth at first, but after passing through the commercial city of Mei’an, it encountered desperate volleys from various indigenous tribes in the south, and even some fierce people from the wild tribes at the time. The tribe orcs also ran out to join in the fun, it can be said to have suffered heavy casualties. But this is not over yet. When the southward offensive has become an extravagant hope to retreat, the retreat is being ambushed by the indigenous tribes from the three southern provinces now, and the entire southern legion is so thoroughly explained here.

After   , the Emperor of the Millennium Covenant was furious, and he even spent huge sums of money to launch a counterattack.

  After the whole country launched an all-out war, the Mei’an area was finally taken at a great price, and the Mei’an Fortress was built here. Then, troops were sent to the three southern provinces. At that time, all men, whether children, adults, or old people, were slaughtered in the southern land that had not yet formed the size of the three provinces. Women were taken away as war trophies. It also laid a hidden line for the first civil strife in the empire of the Millennium Covenant.

This civil turmoil broke out in the late term of the sixth emperor and lasted for nearly a hundred years. At that time, almost the entire southern part of the empire was caught in a state of war. It was quite a chaotic era of tribal melee-three southern provinces, six old places. A total of 72 anti-flags were raised by the province and eleven aristocratic dominions.

  The battle lasted until the ninth emperor succeeded for twenty years before finally being put down-the short-lived seventh emperor died in the assassination of the assassins sent by the nobles of the southern civil strife within three years of his succession. The eighth emperor reigned for nearly 70 years. The greatest contribution to the civil strife in the South was the annihilation of the army of forty of the rebellious nobles, and the significant weakening of the military power of the other 32 rebellious nobles.

  After the ninth emperor put down the war, the remaining rebellious nobles crossed the Me’an Fortress and fled further south, many of them even fled into the wilderness.

  It seems to be deeply aware of the damage and impact this incident has brought to the empire. Since the ninth emperor, he has continuously sent troops out of Mei’an to continue south. Until the mid-term of the twelfth emperor’s reign. Finally, the thirteen provinces south of the Mei’an Fortress were finally laid down, and the entire southern territory was now owned, and a wild fortress was even built.

  However, because of the division of interests in previous wars and many other factors, the entire southern empire was not monolithic.

With May’an Fortress as the demarcation point, the provinces that have existed since the establishment of the six thousand-year covenant empires to the north are called the six provinces of the old south, and the 18 nobles who have settled in this land-since the South Rebellion for a hundred years After the end, the eleven aristocratic dominions became eighteen aristocratic dominions-also known as the Old South Eighteen Clan, which included the current Zoan Dun family.

  And the three provinces south of the Mayan Fortress. Known as the three southern provinces, this is also the most important food base of the Millennium Covenant Empire. Although there are no noble fiefs, there are seven great nobles in the three southern provinces that can be called first-rate in the empire, so these seven families are also known as the seven great families in the south. The head of these seven families is the family of Marquis Demon Snake Antas. It is precisely because he has been secretly supporting all the old nobles that this empire civil strife will last for so long.

The southeast of the Mei’an Fortress, which is the 13 provinces formed by the Golden Left Road and the Nugget Road, is called the Golden Thirteen Provinces, together with 21 of the 13 provinces. The family is also known as the golden family. However, this kind of addressing, to put it bluntly, is just a kind of self-proclaimed one that raises one’s worth, and only in the southern part of the empire there is this way of addressing-of course, the most important thing is to distinguish their respective positions.

  Gold Twenty One, Thirteen Golden Provinces, Seven Southern Provinces, Three Southern Provinces, Old South Eighteen Clan, and Old South Six Provinces constitute the southern structure of the entire Millennium Covenant Empire.

  However, with the fall of the Mei’an Fortress, the tripartite pattern is now truly cut apart.

  In terms of overall strength, the Golden Twenty-one, which holds the true voice of the Thirteen Golden Provinces, is undoubtedly the strongest. Therefore, even in the face of small Lucas and Lake’s strong offensive and fierce attack, it will not be completely fallen for a while, but with the passage of time, it will only be a matter of time.

  The second strongest in terms of strength are the six old southern provinces and eighteen aristocratic dominions. However, as Purhus Zoranton became the Duke of Nandern, the six old southern provinces and the eighteenth nobles of the old southern must all obey the orders of the duke. In addition, the old duke did have unique skills, so after integrating all the forces in the old south, it became the strongest existence in the south of the empire.

  If it weren’t for this old duke’s amazing skills, and he did not hesitate to immediately launch a fierce attack on the Mei’an commercial city, I’m afraid the three southern provinces, which are the weakest in terms of apparent strength and true strength, would have long been smashed by the army of the undead.

  After all, although there are seven families in the three southern provinces that can be called first-class, in fact, only the Marquis of Demon Snake is the only one who really possesses extraordinary background and strength.

  Because of the onslaught launched by Puhughes, the army of the undead, which is going deep into the three southern provinces, had to withdraw to the Mei’an commercial city to resist.

  The counterattack speed from the human empire is slightly faster than what Rek and Lucas expected.

  The progress of the Second Undead Army was also much slower than expected. In addition to some factors due to the fact that there are several sanctuary powerhouses in the province, which prevented the defeat of the first battle from being able to sweep through the general situation, it was also another key reason that Sean’s cross-handing caused the loss of 50,000 dead souls. .

  All these changes in the situation have caused the current situation in the southern part of the Millennium Covenant Empire to appear unusually weird.

  ……

  Green Fort was originally an outpost-shaped acropolis built to cooperate with Mei’an Fortress.

  However, after the war value of Mayan Fortress was changed, this fortress was gradually abandoned. It was not until the prosperity of the Golden Left Road, when the status of this province was formally established, that a large nobleman privately funded the repair and reconstruction.

  The entire green castle covers an area of ​​about 32,000 to 35,000 square meters. The specific area is no longer known because it has been repaired and rebuilt many times. Some additions and deletions have been made to the original design drawings. In addition to the reinforcement of the city walls. The number of arrow stacks has also been increased, but the arrow towers have been slightly reduced. At the same time, the greening in the green castle has also been added a lot, taking into account the beauty of the castle.

  As we all know, there are five very famous castles in the southern continent.

  This Emerald Castle-commonly known as the Green Castle, is one of the five largest castles in the Southern Continent that is as famous as the Black Swan Castle in the Void Duchy and the Black Rose Castle in the Kingdom of Fascism. The other two castles are the Dragon Castle in the Duchy of Satagastan. And Liuyeling Castle in the Principality of Ekiri.

  The Emerald Castle is built on the forest. Although it does not rely on the mountain, it also only built three towering walls. The side surrounding the forest was not built. Mainly because this forest is a virgin forest. Not only is the area extremely vast, but the terrain is also very complicated, and there are even natural and dangerous places such as bottomless swamps and poisonous mists, and there are even many extremely tyrannical beasts, so It doesn’t really matter whether the city wall is built or not.

certainly. The location of the castle is here, so naturally the locations of these dangerous places are used. It is absolutely impossible to rely on going deep into the forest and detouring to the back of the Emerald Castle to attack the castle through this side where there is no wall. And this side of relying on the forest is actually the original owner who built the castle in order to prevent the castle from being besieged and unable to break through from the front, so he deliberately left such an escape route for the defenders in the castle to retreat.

  At this time, a team of neatly arranged teams gathered in front of this virgin forest.

  Most of these people are elderly people and children. Their faces still have a look of fear, and many people are shivering—not cold, but frightened. If it weren’t for the fact that there are still many military-looking guards in the castle who are in charge, I’m afraid these people don’t know what they’re going to be in a panic. The atmosphere is still condensed but not scattered.

  And the various screams of killing from time to time still in the distance, but also showed the situation of Green Castle at this time.

A middle-aged man with a scar on his face looked like a scar of a fierce centipede and glanced at the woodland with a worried look. Then he looked back and said in a deep voice: “These people, I’m afraid that few of them can pass through this piece of land. Dead.”

  The scar on the man’s face fell straight from his forehead to his right cheek, with his right eye in the middle, so he had only one left eye to observe things. And this scar was slightly red at this time, and blood was overflowing from time to time. It was obviously a new wound, probably not more than ten days old. It stands to reason that in this case, there will be abnormal pain, which is unbearable by most people, but this middle-aged man seems to have no injuries on his face, giving people a sense of calmness.

“We tried our best, and the rest can only be resigned.” The person who responded was a middle-aged man with slightly grey hair. His age was obviously only middle-aged, but the hair was so obvious that it was not that at a glance. Kind of silvery white, but similar to the grayish white that the spirit of the spirit has come to an end, “Although the right side is also extremely dangerous, but after all, there are still many strong people sitting in town. If they can successfully cross this forest, at least they have the hope of living. It’s much bigger than here.”

  The two were talking like this, but they heard a bang suddenly.

  This voice resembled the thunder and anger, and it suddenly sounded. I am afraid it will be shocked at first glance.

  But this sound has sounded two or three times in one night, so not only the two on the wall did not respond, but even the team at the edge of the forest was numb. Of course, many people still look at a certain section of the smoke-filled city wall with a little worry, because their relatives are fighting there bravely at this time, in order to fight for their incompetent elderly and children. A time to escape, avoid becoming the end of the undead army’s material.

“It’s time for me to go.” The middle-aged man with scars on his face said in a deep voice, “When the left city wall collapsed, it was Mr. Moro who turned the tide. It’s too possible. Now the right city wall collapses, and there is the main force of the undead army, I’m afraid I still have to sit down and solve it…. It’s the fog spirit, I’m afraid I will find a chance to attack you soon.”

   “I can still use the death spell once more.” The gray-haired man said faintly, his voice calm and calm, “But it’s the last time.”

The middle-aged man with scars on his face was silent, but he sighed helplessly: “I don’t know what the madness of this group of undeads is. After a sudden attack last night, they have been fighting to the present, even if the loss is more than half. Retreat, this makes it impossible for us to burn the corpses of our dead companions, but instead restores their manpower resources.”

“They are in a hurry, I’m afraid something has happened.” The gray-haired middle-aged man said softly, “Neither you nor Mr. Moro are his opponents. Now General Hanwens is seriously injured. We must send him as soon as possible. On the right side, there is at least one Great Sacrifice Hall of the Temple of Life, which may be able to heal General Hanwens. So the only one who can fight the mist spirit is me who can perform desperate spells. NS.”

“but……”

“I’m ready to die with him.” The gray-haired middle-aged man interrupted his companion. “You should hurry up and reinforce it. Otherwise, the pressure will be over there. If the undead army is allowed to rush and kill. Come in, I’m afraid that when the old people and children want to escape, they won’t be able to escape, so we will not be able to secretly send General Huwens away.”

“Hey.” The middle-aged man with a hideous scar on his face gave a chuckle, and immediately lifted the spear next to him, then turned and walked toward the smoke-filled city wall, and he walked tens of meters away in just one step. “It is an honor for me to be able to fight alongside you…. If I die in battle, I will explode myself with the domain and prevent them from using my body to create any monsters to kill.”

  Looking at the back of the middle-aged man leaving, the gray-haired man sighed, “Me too.”

After   , he turned his head and looked at the midair not far away.

  Because there, a black robe that is constantly emitting a thick black mist on the hood, cuffs and hem of the robe is rising in the sky. (To be continued~^~)

  PS:  Some friends have come to play these days, I am really busy these two days, and I owe two more. This chapter can be regarded as an update on the 10th today, because I am not sure whether there will be a time codeword after I wake up tomorrow, but fortunately, my friend left on the 11th, so if there is no accident afterwards, it should be stable.
