Just after the Holy Dragon City Legion was overwhelming and easily captured Xueman City, the entire process of this battle was quickly collected and sent to various indigenous forces in the mainland.
The first battle in Holy Dragon City was too stunning. The near-crushing process and unrivaled strength will definitely put tremendous pressure on these indigenous forces!
Next, whether to choose to be enemies of Holy Dragon City or not to invade each other, these indigenous forces must make a choice.
After all, Holy Dragon City with such strength will never stick to a small area. You might wake up one day and Holy Dragon City will have already arrived at your doorstep!
About three days away from Snowman City, there is a plain between the valleys, where a large number of tents are now being erected.
There were so many tents that it seemed as if there were no edges visible at a glance, completely occupying the plain between the valleys.
Warriors and monks of different races are moving back and forth in this camp. Because they come from different lords, the boundaries between the camps are also very obvious.
Even if they are facing the same enemy, these generals from various cities in Skyrim Province will never leave their soldiers to someone to lead them, and then they will be used as decorations!
The lords of Tianrim Province also have different attitudes towards how to deal with the demons outside the world. Their ideas also directly affect the generals who lead the troops, which also causes constant disputes within the lords' coalition.
At this time, in a huge camp, generals from various indigenous forces were gathering together to discuss the military situation.
The moment Xueman City was captured by the demons from outside the world, a messenger bird sent the news here, which immediately caused an uproar.
Seeing how the demons from outside the world captured Xueman City so quickly, the generals of these indigenous forces suddenly felt as if their heads were as big as a bucket, and their faces became extremely ugly.
After receiving Balgrufu's letter asking for help, they had already made preparations for support. After all, Snowman City is the first fortress to face the demons from outside the world, and there must be no room for loss in a short time!
The indigenous forces will also use this as a barrier to fight against the demons from outside the world.
Although during this period of time, some information about the demons outside the world has also fallen into the hands of these indigenous forces, while marveling at the strength and methods of the other parties, the lord coalition still did not pay enough attention.
Their coalition forces were unable to refuse the empire's orders and there were also requests from a large number of influential believers in the gods, so they had to send troops.
In the view of some indigenous generals, although the demons from the outer world have attracted the indigenous gods to send down oracles one after another, they are still no match for them in the face of the crusade from the entire continent, and they are expected to be strangled and driven away soon!
However, so far, no one has had a large-scale battle with the demons from outside the world, and the true strength of the other party is still unclear.
So the battlefield of Xueman City, where we are facing the demon clan from outside the world, is the best opportunity to understand.
Therefore, this army, which was composed of troops sent by various lords of Tianji Province, did not set out as soon as it received the request for help. Instead, it deliberately slowed down its march and waited for the fight between Snowman City and the demons from outside the world.
The idea of the coalition generals is very simple, that is, let Balgruuf fight with the demons from outside the world first. After understanding the opponent's trump card tactics, the coalition forces of the lords can intervene in the battle in time.
In this way, not only can you have a better understanding of the enemy, but you can also attack from inside and outside, and launch a siege against the demons outside the world!
After the siege crisis is resolved, the coalition forces can easily control Balgruuf and even imprison him directly, thereby completely controlling Snowman City!
After all, after a brutal battle to defend the city, Lord Xueman would inevitably lose his troops and his strength would be greatly reduced. At that time, he could no longer pose a threat to the coalition forces and could only submit obediently.
The coalition generals' calculations were ringing, but unfortunately the development of things far exceeded their expectations. Balgruuf didn't even last a day and was completely defeated!
Is the enemy too powerful, or is Balgruuf too incompetent?
The gloomy-looking coalition generals scolded Balgruuf for his incompetence while reading the latest intelligence, but their faces grew gloomier as they read.
The strong personal strength of the Holy Dragon City soldiers, their sophisticated weapons and equipment, and their powerful battle puppets all made these coalition generals terrified.
With such a luxurious configuration and a population of over 10,000, it does not seem unbelievable that Xueman City fell in a very short period of time.
No one felt sorry for Balgruuf. Even the lords behind some of the coalition generals had always regarded Balgruuf as a thorn in their side and wished he had been killed earlier!
But for the coalition of lords at this time, Balgruuf's defeat added a lot of variables to the subsequent battle.
If the already powerful Tianwai Demon Clan relied on Xueman City to resist the coalition forces, then they would most likely encounter an extremely embarrassing situation after traveling all the way across mountains and rivers.
After all, this coalition has a large number of people, and supplies are definitely a big problem, and Snowman City is exactly the place where they plan to replenish supplies.
Now this supply location has become the enemy's lair.
As long as the Demon Clan holds Xueman City, the coalition of lords will not even think about heading to Hewang Village to launch an attack on the damn floating island of the Demon Clan!
What was originally a seemingly easy war has now become complicated.
For a time, the entire camp was filled with frowning coalition generals, thinking about the next strategy.
In fact, there are only two ways in front of them. One is to continue moving forward and fight to the death with the demons from outside the world who have occupied Xueman City without reinforcements and supplies!
However, according to the information they currently have, if they fight against the demons from outside the world, they will probably not get any benefits, and may even suffer huge losses.
This kind of battle result is naturally not what the lords of Tianrim Province, who were ordered to crusade against the demons from outside the world but planned to do nothing, wanted.
The generals who led the troops also did not want to suffer defeat.
Therefore, everyone present would definitely not agree to this resolution. Even though the imperial envoy was jumping up and down, forcing them to send troops immediately, no one paid attention to it.
As for the second way, that is to stay put, waiting for the follow-up Imperial Legion and the Demon-Slaying Legion to arrive, and then collectively attack Snowman City!
According to intelligence, the total number of legions dispatched by the empire is nearly 100,000, all of which are composed of elites recruited and mobilized in a short period of time. Compared with the coalition forces of lords, their combat effectiveness is naturally higher than that of the lords' coalition!
They are the main force fighting against the demons outside the world, and the other armies can only assist in the battle at best!
The total number of demon-slaying legions is said to have exceeded half a million, and the number is still increasing like a snowball.
Because of the appearance of the indigenous gods, countless fanatical believers responded to the call and left everything behind to join the ranks of demon slayers. The morale was frighteningly high!
It's just that these believers, who are both good and bad, have expanded the number of demon-slaying legions, but their combat effectiveness does not allow people to have too many expectations.
No one expects these demon slayers, composed of farmers, traders, and people from all walks of life, to become the main force on the battlefield.
But having said that, even half a million pigs, when charging collectively, are enough to trample the demons from outside the world to death!
It is precisely because of these powerful backups that the generals of the lords' alliance in Tianrim Province still do not have much fear even though they are wary of the strength of the demons outside the world.
In the camp, the discussion continued.
You and I have been discussing for a long time, but no one has come up with a clear charter to decide whether to continue heading towards Xueman City.
After all, no one would be foolish enough to do such a thankless task. Even if it was an order from the empire, and there were special envoys from the empire in the army, they could not change the decision of these lords and generals.
The imperial envoy accompanying the army was so angry that he had no choice but to leave the tent bitterly, trying to put pressure on these lords and generals through other means.
The generals of the lords' coalition looked at the leaving figure of the imperial envoy with expressionless expressions, with a sneer on their lips.
Ever since the defeat to the high elves and the signing of the Platinum Treaty, the Empire's influence has become weaker and weaker. To this day, even the generals under the lords of Skyrim Province no longer take the Empire's orders seriously!
Of course, the appearance on the surface must be improved!
But just when everyone was secretly feeling lucky that they were angry at the imperial envoy and didn't have to take the lead in fighting the demons from outside the world, a sound of exclamation like a wave of waves suddenly came from outside.
This is a bombing of the camp!
The expressions of all the lords and generals changed drastically, and they quickly rushed out of the camp and came to the open space outside.
Immediately afterwards, they all opened their mouths wide and stared at the sky, their eyes full of surprise!
