1741.12.9, the night before black wing declared war on the empire with the sun never setting.
Al Sala has never had such a night. In the quiet and hazy darkness, the huge black wing army, with a solemn, rigorous and frightening momentum, is arrayed at al Sala''s twelve strategic transmission points.
Soldiers are everywhere on the ground. From the tatalis mountains of Aiyo kingdom to the monegu battlefield near Aibu Kingdom, you can see the ready to go figure. The outline of a giant radiation dragon or two occasionally flies in the sky. A large number of dog demons are ready to move, and behind them are the caster troops wrapped in black robes, Waiting for the attack signal from Lord McNee dark blade.
The dog demons crowded in the narrow area roared and bared their teeth. The suspender hanging in the air shook and dropped bottles and cans. The iron chain made a creaking sound. The dog demons raised their heads to catch it, and even chewed and swallowed the glass bottle.
That''s the fourth generation of rage potion made by the research laboratory. It can keep soldiers excited in battle and resist mental effects to the greatest extent. The side effect is to make all perceptual insensitivity, including touch and taste. However, for the black wing army, perceptual insensitivity may not be a bad thing.
The orc supervisor shuttled back and forth among the noisy dog demons, beat the war drum, made a roaring sound, and announced loudly: "line up, wait for the order! Line up, wait for the order!"
McNee knew that the Empire had not yet fully mastered the current situation in the central region. He would play the dual role of Pathfinder and attacker. This was a complex and dangerous operation.
The dwarf looked down from the tower and could only see the dog demons hitting each other and crowding in the dark, which made people uncomfortable.
"I hope I can survive more."
McNee sighed in his heart, his eyes became firm, and when everything was ready, he issued a formal order, "action begins, the whole army starts".
Flying dragon, dog demon, ORC supervisor and caster troops began to enter the transfer point in batches. McNee didn''t foolishly bet all his troops on an area. He spent two hours studying the map with the supervisors and finally decided to attack the villages, towns, mountains and valleys in the middle near the north at the same time.
After thinking about it, the new Lord of the royal court decided to gain a foothold in the middle first, occupy four to six temporary stations that can build large transmission points, and let the black wing army be guaranteed in retreat and support, and then launch an attack on nisdu and kohol to complete the task assigned to him by the black emperor.
Tonight will definitely be longer than expected.
……
Laros is very quiet on a cold winter night. The village lies in the arc of the journey from mien to the north. It has never been disturbed. For people, it is only a place to pass on the way from somewhere to somewhere. Its only feature is that there is a tower, which is the product of the northward migration of mankind in the second era. It has collapsed many times over the past millennium, It has been rebuilt several times by local villagers and is still well preserved.
On this chilly night, the tower was chilly, and the huge stones on the wall exuded water because of moisture. Just after 8 p.m., the brazier on the tower was burning. Outside the tower, the yellow mud road covered with weeds on both sides extended out. The shacks and wooden houses in the village closed their doors and windows without a sound.
Laros is very quiet, quiet like a deserted wild village, but this silence is not true, because in this small village, thousands of hearts are beating slowly.
There are sentries in every corner. The sentries huddle together in protective cloaks. They stay in towers and fortresses, beside roadblocks at entrances and exits, in the depressions of small hills and veins, in the low-lying wetlands of fields and in the sentry posts at the top of villages.
Although laros village has a leisurely and idyllic surface, it is a military station in its bones. There are more than 500 villagers inside and outside the village, and the number of soldiers is more than three times that of villagers. They are the iron Crusaders from Hejian and the main force of the kingdom of BALIA.
There are far more than one village like laros. When the great sun never setting Empire completed its conquest of the central region, Hejian countries soon followed. While sharing the benefits of the trading city states, they are also sending troops to all parts of the central region to jointly build a long barrier across the East and west to prevent the attack of the north at any time.
"It''s so quiet."
Winter is coming, snow is swept across the sky by the new wind, whimpers around the house, and tany pigg raises his head from the table full of information, listens, and sighs.
"If there were no war, I might have just finished drinking and lying on the warm chest of those long legged highland women."
The adjutant sat down opposite. They had a good relationship, so they were not formal at all. "Speaking, what does the Yankees have to do with fighting with the sun? Why does the Baboon King have to get involved?"
"The king did nothing wrong in this matter, hoggar, you don''t understand."
The supreme commander of the iron Crusader took a sip of tea and said, "unlike previous wars, once this war is fought, no one can stay out of Aladia. Instead of being forced to get involved in the dispute, it''s better to end in advance and make more preparations to control the balance of victory as much as possible."
"But we are not weights on the balance, we are..."
The adjutant thought about it and couldn''t find a suitable adjective, so he said another way: "tanny, have you ever played the card game in the north? When two players play chess, they will continue to use low-cost attendants to consume their opponent''s cards and blood until they have the winning ticket, and then use the most powerful card hammer to fix the tone. In this war, we are low-cost attendants."
"You just say that in the eyes of the sun and black wings, we are cannon fodder." tany smiled. "Do you need to say such a long paragraph to describe it? You... Don''t think everyone doesn''t know about it?"
"Since you know, you can still laugh?" hoggar was a little stunned by his unexplained smile.
Tanny pyg was silent for a moment, put away his smile and said: "My father has told the legendary deeds of the pigg family many times: in the war between humans and orcs at the end of the second era, the holy light fell day by day, and a winged heavenly family appeared in the cloud. My ancestors responded to the call of the heavenly family, joined the army and fought for mankind. In this war, my ancestors became knights, fell in love with a beautiful lady, and gave birth to this great family 。”
"I didn''t know part of the facts of history until later. My ancestors did join the army, but they were not knights, but Knight attendants in charge of leading horses. He never participated in any war, and the so-called beautiful lady was just a prostitute in the army."
"In fact, this glorious family has never had enough to eat. My father''s generation is poor and has neither wealth nor status. In the Bakha conflict 70 years ago, I saw my mother taken away by the soldiers of Kashan. Since then, I have never seen her again."
"I smile for no special reason, just because I want to do great things. I want to make the surname pigg really have glory. Some people are born with restless blood and are desperate for fame and strength, even if they give their lives..."
Tani tilted his mouth and smiled again, as if to laugh at himself: "even cannon fodder, as long as we hold the sword, everything will have a chance."
Hoggar sat silently after listening. He didn''t know what to say. He could only stare at the charcoal basin.
After a moment of silence, tanny stood up and patted the adjutant on the shoulder. "Let''s go and walk outside with me. It''s very cold tonight. I hope the guys at the sentry don''t be lazy."
