Throughout the history books, the decline or rise of a dynasty will be revealed at the beginning.
The trigger of the beginning may be a trivial battle, an unequal transaction, or the life and death of a small person.
However, most of these living beings are "in the Lushan Mountains and do not know their true face", and cannot view the changes in time and space from the perspective of gods or legends.
Most of them can only be carried forward by the impact of the huge waves of fate. It will not be until someone looks back a hundred years later that they sigh:
"That little man back then, did he know that that incident was a sign that a great country was beginning to rise?"
…
September, the last small month of the Moon of Fire.
Kingdom of Gula.
For more than a month, storms broke out in the Azan territory and many surrounding territories.
Lady Tide has fallen!
Lava Swamp Riot!
The attack of Stars and Waves Ocean is also imminent, and maybe it will be advanced because of this!
One after another, the entire southern part of the Gula Kingdom was in turmoil...
After hearing the news, some corrupt and timid nobles moved towards the "Abyss" of the imperial capital in the north to avoid the war.
There are also nobles who have great faith in the strength of the Gula Kingdom and remain completely unmoved, or they are trying to take advantage of the situation.
Only a small number of nobles and professionals set off without hesitation and sent their troops south.
The turmoil in the Gula Kingdom has also attracted the attention of the Holy Life Alliance and the Permafrost Council, and even some small kingdoms, small principalities or other small forces on the road have noticed.
Of course I just noticed.
Just like some small islands in the previous life noticed that the overlords were arm wrestling, they could only shout and cheer from the side to create a sense of presence and participation.
The same goes for Nassenger.
The forces in the entire continent are just watching from the sidelines.
Only the Gula Kingdom, a party concerned, has begun emergency mobilization internally.
For many years, the people of Nasenge have focused on acquiring, developing, and ruling the new plane, and have not paid much attention to the situation in the main plane of Nasenge.
And now, the lava swamp has attracted the attention of everyone in the Gula Kingdom.
What a courage!
Although the lava swamp is one of the three major monster gathering places in Nasenge, it is the Kingdom of Gula, the human kingdom ruled by the "King of Black and White", the Mianless Emperor!
Extreme black and dazzling white!
Except for some cowards, many nobles are paying attention to the situation here.
While the Kingdom of Gula was in turmoil, strangely enough, the Great Swamp remained calm for two months.
The first wave of monsters that Lin Ke and the others thought originally did not come.
During this period, not a single beast escaped from it, let alone a monster.
In contrast, the Azane territory was in full swing.
…
Six kilometers away from Azan Castle.
This is a wasteland, and the large swamp is vaguely visible in the distance.
Countless migrant workers, farmers, slaves, servants and other ordinary people were like ants, carrying huge rocks, wood and other things.
And at the very front, a stretching city wall is being built.
Judging from its prototype, this city wall is not as tall and majestic as some castles, but looking at it, it seems to stretch for a long, long time with no end in sight.
The view from a high place is stunning.
A large number of Azan people, refugees, slaves, etc. were recruited, and at the same time, there were hundreds of brick kilns behind the city wall firing bricks day and night.
The river next to Azan Castle is almost empty of silt and used to make bricks!
The entire river has been widened dozens of times.
And the effect is also obvious.
This city wall is extending to both sides every day at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In addition to ordinary people, some professionals are also working.
[Secretist], [Architect] and other professionals are waving their own magic props to outline "strong", "thick", "demon-breaking" and other secret texts and magic patterns on the city wall.
Professionals such as [Blacksmith] and [Blacksmith] are forging various equipment and weapons.
[Knights] and others are either checking their mounts, partners, equipment and weapons, etc., or they are training and meditating.
On the city wall, various magical lights flicker.
At this time, Lin Ke was riding a Gula bull, patrolling all the guards and cavalry in front of him.
The Gula bull is very large, and unlike the cow, the bull's limbs are thicker and longer, and its trunk is not so fat. It looks like a horse with a bull's head.
Although Lin Ke was small, the intimidation of being a third-level professional still made the Gula Bull beneath him, an ordinary animal, very obedient.
At this time, Lin Ke was frowning, pulling on the reins, and keeping his voice as low as possible: "...People of Azane, let me say it one last time, the battlefield is no joke! If you disobey orders in order to enlighten your bloodline, you will lose everything."
It’s not just your own lives that will be at risk! Your wives, future generations, and parents will also die because of this!”
In front of him, there were two distinct groups of people standing. On one side were some of his castle guards, who stood at attention meticulously and looked ahead.
On the other side are the militiamen he collected from various places in Azan.
At this time, he was lecturing the militiamen.
Although these militiamen are commendable for their courage, their purpose is also too strong, which is to gain blood enlightenment from Lin Ke!
Yes, enlightenment, which originally could only belong to nobles or nobles, was promoted by Lin Ke as a prize.
The skill of Enlightenment can only be used by [Teacher] professions, such as [Enlightenment Teacher].
Those who can afford [teachers] are either nobles or strong men themselves, so it is very difficult for ordinary people to find a way out.
This is also related to the fact that the nobles consciously controlled the channels.
Lin Ke, on the other hand, directly linked "enlightenment" to Azan coins.
Those who want to be enlightened can be enlightened by Mr. Aofu, a star-level professional!
The cost is two thousand Azan coins.
Azan coins were originally used to measure the performance of mining slaves.
But when Lin Ke created this currency, it was not just for the performance of mere slaves.
He is playing a big game of chess.
Therefore, in just a few days, a large number of people heard about Lin Ke's generosity and enthusiastically came to join the army, and an army of two thousand people was immediately organized.
However, it is said that the military flatters them too much.
This group of people, including humans and humanoids, is nothing more than a mob!
Therefore, many nobles originally disagreed and even fiercely opposed Lin Ke's approach.
But because Lin Ke enlightened ten people in a row who were all inferior talents...
The nobles felt comfortable and relieved.
"Now, I will redistribute your belongings! If you hear your name, please come out..."
Lin Ke took out a piece of paper from the bag next to his mount, which recorded some general information: "Alyosha! Chekov! Gorky!..."
While shouting, Lin Ke complained in his heart: If this team of people died, it would be a pity for the literary world...
"Arrived! Arrive!"...
After Lin Ke's roll call, the guards came out one by one. They were all castle guards who had been trained by Lin Ke for a long time and obeyed the orders and prohibitions.
Now he wants to break up the troops and divide them into large groups and small groups. The captains are all soldiers led by him, especially those who have participated in the siege of the deep blue giant tiger.
To be continued...
