In the early morning, the sun shines brightly. Under this bright sunshine, 500,000 wolf cavalry have gathered outside the Crescent Fortress and are ready to march towards the El Forest at any time.
The army has been gathering for half an hour. The orc hero Walpole, who is the vanguard, has not received the order to march out. This makes him anxious and even a little irritable.
Because this morning, there was a problem with the main defense line of the Chaos Legion in the rear. The dwarves and barbarians went crazy this morning and launched an attack on their main defense line. The losses on our main defense line were extremely heavy, but those two sides
It's not much better.
What is surprising is that the dwarf and barbarian troops immediately retreated after completing a general attack. After they withdrew from the frontline theater, they all retreated to Dongze, which is the eastern border.
The attitude shown by the dwarves, barbarians, and lizards at this time is that they will no longer participate in the frontline war. This general attack will be their last battle.
What is even more shocking is that at 7 o'clock this morning, the dwarves, barbarians, and lizards all announced to the public that they had withdrawn from the Six Tribes Alliance, and the Six Tribes Alliance became a Three Tribes Alliance.
This round of somewhat abrupt general attack, as well as the news that the three tribes had withdrawn from the alliance, made some keen people realize that something big was going to happen on Canglong Continent.
The reason why Su Xiao did not send out the army was that an hour ago, several special 'guests' came to the Crescent Fortress.
These people were escorted into the fortress by the wolf cavalry, and were almost killed by the wolf cavalry on the way. Fortunately, Baha stopped them in time.
It was not a negotiation mission from the elves, but diplomats from the Doin Empire, and two accompanying soldier captains.
It can be said that the current southern war zone is Su Xiao's territory. As long as the troops of the Six Clans Alliance enter this war zone, they will soon be surrounded and suppressed by the wolf cavalry.
In the stone building where Su Xiao lived, the aroma of black tea spread out. A female soldier captain was holding a teapot and pouring tea for Su Xiao and a smiling middle-aged man.
"Lord Baiye, you're welcome. This is a specialty of Mipo Manor. It is only produced once every five years. It is the best among the best."
The diplomat named Deforton, after making a gesture of invitation, picked up the black tea cup in front of him, took a sip, and relaxed his brows.
Su Xiao glanced at the black tea cup in front of him, and then at the diplomat opposite him. Duoyin would send someone, which he didn't expect. Due to emotional and rational reasons, the Duoyin Empire should not intervene now.
"There are too many misunderstandings between the two of us, years of wars, racial differences, and cultural conflicts. But, Commander-in-Chief White Night, we Doin and Gray Orcs all have two eyes, two ears, and one
Open your mouth, the staple food of common people on both sides is grain, and we both know how to cultivate and harvest. In fact... there is no essential difference between Doin and gray orcs, are you right?"
Diplomat Deforton put down his teacup and exhaled hot breath.
"..."
Su Xiao was a little confused about the attitude of the Duoyin Empire. From the way the diplomat sounded, it sounded like he was here for peace talks.
"The reason why there is a war is simply that the resources of this continent are not enough to be distributed among ten races. The elves and the ice people, one occupies the southern border and the other occupies the northern border. My country is often caught in the middle. How is this?
Terrible situation.”
Diplomat Deforton let out a long sigh. From his tone, it seemed as if Duoyin would be invaded by the elves and iceborn at any time.
"Hypothesis... I am talking about hypothesis. Please don't get me wrong. Suppose Duoyin owns the central and northern territories, and the Chaos Legion occupies most of the southern and western territories. Does this mean that Canglong Continent will usher in a rare peace?
Resources determine everything.”
Diplomat Deforton drew a circle on the table with his finger and continued:
"Of course, this is just my personal fantasy. The El Forest belongs to the elves, but then again, this forest does not represent the entire southern border. It is a remote land. Apart from trees and gems, there is nothing to envy.
, the southern theater where we are located occupies most of the territory of the southern border, and together with the western border, the landform is so vast that it already occupies one-third of the continent."
Diplomat Deforton drew on the circle on the table and divided it into one-third, which represented the entire Western Territory and most of the Southern Territory.
"Lord White Night, what do you think of this territory that occupies one-third of the continent? The land here is fertile, and there is a river that spans the entire territory. In a few decades, the population of the Chaos Legion may be several times what it is now.
Times, even ten times."
After hearing this, Su Xiao knew the purpose of diplomat Defford's coming here. It was because the Empire was impatient and was clearly preparing to unite with him to attack the Ice Lord in the north.
Of course, there is a premise for this, which is to get rid of the elves in the El Forest first, or at least defeat the elves. As for the El Forest, except for the elves who regard it as a treasure, other parties are not optimistic about it.
here.
It is true that trees are resources, but if you want to develop, a large flat and fertile land is the foundation for development, at least for the Doin people and gray orcs.
Regardless of how the Gray Orcs look, they can grow crops in the Western Region where the temperature is below zero, and their farming level is better than that of the Doin people.
"The Iceborn in the North are essentially different from us. They are strong 'beasts'. They... they keep the North frozen all year round. Didn't you notice that the wargs felt no discomfort after leaving the North?
They have adapted to the temperature and climate of the south. This is not because of their strong bodies, but because their ancestors did not live in cold areas.
It was the Iceborn who made the North cold, and now, those 'beasts' who call themselves Iceborn have gathered strength. You broke through the 'Wall of Atad' a few days ago, and it was you... who angered them. At this moment
At this moment, Duoyin's army is already at the border of the North, and we are going to war with the North!"
Defonton revealed a piece of bombshell news. This news was kept strictly confidential until Duoyin and the Northern Territory completely fell out. The Duoyin Empire was going to war with the Northern Territory.
Su Xiao discovered from the very beginning that the Ice Lord in the North is known as one of the three major forces, but judging from the situation in the war zone, the North is not strong, which is very unreasonable.
When Su Xiao attacked Icehoof Fortress, 60,000 gray orc troops died in the battle. It was the deadliest battle in history. You must know that this was the gray orc army and ice warriors with the bonus of war lord.
The combat effectiveness can be imagined.
Even so, the performance of the Northern Territory on the front line is still not strong. Now it seems that they are also accumulating strength, and they can even compete with the Duoyin Empire at this time.
The three major forces are Duoyin, the Northern Territory, and the Elf Tribe. The first two are truly powerful. The last Elf Tribe seems to be stronger, but when it comes to tough battles, they are often beaten hard.
This is actually the reason why Su Xiao came to beat the elves. He didn't have many troops, so of course he had to find the one that was best to fight first, so as to accumulate the subtitle required for war lord.
Now that the Chaos Legion is gone, population determines many things. More importantly, the two things Su Xiao did made Beijing and Duoyin completely fall out.
First, Su Xiao smashed the 'Wall of Atad' with a few swords. For the northern border, it was a natural barrier that blocked Duoyin.
When Su Xiao led his troops into the Northern Territory, the Northern Territory was not empty at all, and he didn't even care too much. The information was there. There were only hundreds of thousands of gray orcs, which was not enough to shake the Northern Territory. But Su Xiao smashed Yatad
After the wall, the North became angry.
Secondly, Su Xiao beat the elves very badly. Among the three major forces, the elves had previously played a balancing role, allowing Duoyin and the North, who were accumulating troops, to coexist peacefully.
At this time, the elves were not enough to maintain this balance, and Duoyin and Beijing, two behemoths that had already developed, began to show their claws.
The Northern Territory has always known about Duoyin's ambitions, but what the outside world doesn't know is that the Northern Territory has quietly grown in strength, and its long-standing fear of Duoyin is false.
"Lord Baiye, please think about it."
Diplomat Deforton sat opposite Su Xiao with a smile on his face. He changed his title from Great Lord to 'Sir'. This was a confidential conversation. Deforton was not worried that the Duoyin Empire's face would be damaged due to the title issue.
Just as Defonton was smiling and waiting for Su Xiao's reply, a female wolf cavalry walked quickly. It can be said that among the female orc soldiers, this female orc is definitely the one with a stylish figure and outstanding appearance.
The shortcomings are that she is relatively violent. Two days ago, she beat a suitor to half a disability with her bare hands, and then Su Xiao sent someone to hang him on the city wall for a night. If Walpole hadn't interceded, this female orc soldier would have been killed by Eminem.
Military punishment: chop off the head with a dragon heart ax.
"Sir, there are three Iceborn who want to see you."
After the female wolf cavalry spoke in a low voice, she stood behind Su Xiao and looked at Defonton with a pair of pale red eyes.
"oh?"
A smile appeared on Su Xiao's face. Things were more interesting than expected. Due to his falling out with the Northern Territory, he, who controlled the Wolf Cavalry Legion, became the target of the two parties' attraction.
After a while, an ice-born man with a single horn and a transparent tentacle-like beard on his chin walked into the room. Behind him, there were two ice-born girls with pointed ears and fluff on their ears.
"Dear Lord White Night, I am Iceborn Simon. It is my honor to be personally received by you."
Iceborn Simon bowed slightly, raised his hand, and the Iceborn girl behind him handed over an ice box.
"This is a meeting gift for you when we meet you for the first time. Please don't refuse. Allow me to say more. This is just a meeting gift. Compared with the gifts that will follow, this is nothing. Our leader in the north, Lord Jibing, is very generous.
, I will not let the messenger come to you with empty hands like a certain king."
Iceborn Simon placed the ice box on the table in front of Su Xiao. He turned his gaze and looked at the diplomat Deforton sitting opposite Su Xiao, and his expression immediately turned cold.
Both of them are diplomats, and the purpose of coming here is exactly the same. They want to temporarily unite with Su Xiao. How strong the Wolf Cavalry Legion is can be seen from the elves with "bruise and swollen face".
Su Xiao pointed her finger on the ice box on the table, and a prompt appeared.
[You get the Heart of Ice (Holy Spirit level equipment). 】
