Volume Six, Chapter 95, War and Conflict-Chapter 96, Furnace
There is such a wise saying: "A butterfly inadvertently fluttered its wings, triggering a storm that swept through the dragon world."
Amy didn't know that this sentence was said by the sage, and he was not aware of it now. However, due to his existence and the random moves he made, the continent of Fanos is now in a state of civil strife.
, or, more accurately, it is only one step away from a true civil war.
Originally, the title of Ghost God was already the best remedy for dealing with Yecrying Lang in the continent of Fanos, but then, terrible things happened one after another!
The first one is the plague. The great plague broke out in the Fanos Expeditionary Force! Since ancient times, all civilians have only one understanding of the irresistible plague - it is the punishment of the gods on mankind. The reason is of course that the punished have
Great sin! All those who are guilty will die in the plague!
Under this premise, everything becomes easy to explain: why the plague only broke out in the expeditionary army! Although there are rumors of plague messengers, who can say that this mysterious plague messenger is not a demon sent by the gods?
What about one of God's powers?
The second thing is the defeat. Shortly after the Great Plague broke out, the Fanos Expeditionary Force and the allied forces that had been publicized before were completely defeated, and finally withdrew from the Eminor Continent and had to return to the Fanos Continent. What does this mean?
?The residents of the Eminor Continent will not understand the true feelings of the residents of the Fanos Continent. For this pan-continental war, the residents of the Barren Continent can be said to have taken out the last pair of pants at home. After the seven-year war, half-orcs, bears
Men born in certain years from tribes such as humans, werewolves, centaurs, etc. have all been sent to the battlefield - they were defeated. After being defeated, these children should come back?! However, the final result is to make all the orc families proud.
The white flag rises! This unconcealed possible defeat, especially the experience of the defeat, and the story of Amy becoming a god amidst the thunder and lightning in the sky, undoubtedly proves that there is something about the ghost god and his major subordinates.
rumors!
The third thing is that the gods retreated. What makes the soldiers and civilians of Fanos even more chilling is that for hundreds of years, the seven gods have been protecting Fanos. It was the appearance of the seven gods that made this bad land full of vitality.
, Since then, civil strife has become a historical term, and the entire continent has really risen. However, starting from a certain day, all the Holy Spirits in the seven major temples disappeared, and the priests and saints can no longer feel the gods! This one
It can explain something: the Seven Gods abandoned the continent of Fanos!
The civil strife started the day the defeated troops returned to the continent of Fanos!
The most effective way to deal with the plague is isolation. Since the two continents are thousands of miles apart, many people were infected with the plague during the dozens of days of supply transport fleets. These fleets arrived in France.
After North, the people and the boat were immediately isolated on the island and left to fend for themselves. There was nothing wrong with this. After all, the fleet that came back each time only had hundreds or thousands of people, and it couldn't be anything important.
Task. For the rulers and residents of Fanos who are not infected with the plague, this is already a very tolerant and extrajudicial method of treatment. If placed in troubled times, the most effective and possible treatment for these infected people is
——Burn to death!
However, this time, the defeated troops returned, with nearly 60,000 troops, including the commander of the expeditionary force, His Majesty the Pope, His Highness Renoir and other powerful figures. Of course, there were also those who were infected with the plague.
The headquarters of the Fanos Expeditionary Force originally wanted to rest and recuperate after landing and strictly guard against the final battle with the Eminor Expeditionary Force. Whether it was the Pope, Renault or the many active generals of the Fanos Expeditionary Force, they all knew that they were already in Aimor.
The war that ended on the Minor Continent will definitely not end like this. Otherwise, there is no need for the two decisive battles between Amy and the Pirate King and Yi Hailan to put forward many demands for ships, sailors, and charts. For Fanos
As far as the mainland is concerned, the Eminor Expeditionary Force is only a question of how many people there will be and when they will land, not whether they will exist.
There is no doubt that if all the empires of the Eminor Continent send out all their elites and only need to send an army of 100,000 people, the Fanos Continent may face annihilation. However, all the officers of the Fanos Expeditionary Force are also aware of another point.
:This may also be the only chance for Fanos Continent to turn defeat into victory.
During the expedition to the Eminor Continent, the biggest disadvantage for the Fanos army was the favorable timing, location, and people. The biggest disadvantage for the Fanos army was the weather, especially the timing used by the small mercenary group. The Fanos continent is located in the tropics, and the weather is good all year round.
It was humid and hot, and the people had never seen ice or snow. However, every battle of the small mercenary group, especially every battle in the early stage when the troops were extremely weak, would skillfully integrate the weather into the war. In the end, it was exactly
Because of this cold weather, the combat effectiveness of the Fanos army was reduced sharply, and they were eventually defeated in a row; however, if it were an expedition of the Eminor continental army, the situation would be exactly the opposite, with the weather and changeable swamp areas of the Fanos continent
, maybe even better than a hundred thousand soldiers.
If we can defeat or even completely wipe out the Eminor Continent Expeditionary Force in Fanos Continent, even if we cannot make a complete comeback in the end, we will at least be in a favorable position for future peace talks.
The expeditionary force headquarters thought very well, and the staff even sketched out the important defense directions of each unit on the map early. However, what no one expected was that the fleet was attacked when it was still 50 nautical miles away from the mainland.
Intercepted!
On the entire sea route outside Fanos, hundreds of medium-sized ships have been cruising at any time in the past six months. These ships have only one purpose, to prevent the defeated expeditionary force from landing!
The Fanos Expeditionary Fleet suddenly stopped after seeing the mainland. The soldiers were stunned and didn't know why. Then, in Renault's writing, His Majesty the Pope, Marshal Dahino, and Her Royal Highness the Queen of Magic were
They were summoned from each fleet to the commander's headquarters and boarded the ship. It was here that the people in high positions saw such a simple and clear notice: "It is reported that the plague is prevalent in the Eminor continent. In order to avoid causing a greater epidemic on the home continent,
Due to a large-scale plague, all returning fleets will immediately turn to the Balik Islands. After one year of quarantine, if it is confirmed that there is no plague, they will return." The signature was signed by the Joint Council of Fanos Tribe Elders.
If the orc soldiers or middle- and lower-level officers saw such an ultimatum, they would probably have exploded with anger. However, now in the joint headquarters of the Fanos Expeditionary Force, more than half of the human leaders are in power. Dahino, Renault, Xiuda
A total of three questions were asked to the messenger, and the cabin became silent.
Dahino asked: "Since you know there is a plague here, why do you dare to board the ship?"
The old man's messenger replied: "Sir, there is no way. They forced me. Besides, my baby also participated in the expedition. I also want to see if the baby is here. They asked me to go with the adults."
Raynor Wen: "Do all those who intercepted us at sea have family members who participated in the expedition?"
The messenger replied: "Yes, my lord."
Xiuda asked: "Old man, you don't have to be so polite. Are you still living in the same place?"
The messenger replied: "No, no, the gentleman said that we are poor there, so let us all gather at the seaside, where we can eat fish more conveniently."
His heart can be killed!
Obviously, the local authorities in Fanos are worried that they will not be able to subdue the returning expeditionary force, so they have gathered most of the military family members. Once the expeditionary force disobeys orders and forcibly lands, these relatives will be hostages, hostages who may lose their heads, and they will be themselves.
Human hostages!
However, being sent to the Pulau Islands like this is something that you absolutely cannot accept. The continent of Fanos is humid and rainy. The largest of the so-called islands is only a few kilometers in radius. The indigenous residents still build nests in the trees to hide from the rain.
We can't let so many high-ranking people dive into the bushes like orangutans? In the end, the result of negotiations between the two sides was that the expedition fleet turned to Rattlesnake Cape in the northwest of the mainland. It is a long and narrow peninsula that is not wide enough from east to west.
Five Li is more than 40 Li long from north to south. No one in the expeditionary force is allowed to leave the peninsula without permission, otherwise they will be killed without mercy.
The commanders of the expedition have never guessed another reason: because the legend of the evil spirit Amy and the small mercenary group being unable to defeat has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people throughout the Fanos continent, therefore, there are indeed a considerable number of such people in the Fanos mainland.
One idea - since it was the Yuanzheng Lord who offended the ghosts and evil spirits and caused the plague, then... maybe if they are handed over, everything will be eliminated naturally.
This idea was originally buried in the hearts of individual people, but soon after, the lives of the seven temples were extinguished one after another, and similar ideas began to spread among a small group of people.
Later, the "insightful people" instigated by Amy appeared on the scene.
In order to prevent the expeditionary force on the peninsula from sneaking ashore, most of Fanos' local naval forces were dispatched near the peninsula, and it was easy for people of insight to land on the mainland from other places. Regarding the peaceful immigration policy advocated by Amy,
Soon it swept from the coast to the interior.
Of course, this trend was noticed by the highest authorities, and immediately, most of the knowledgeable people were arrested. It cannot be expected that these simple orcs have such superb espionage and anti-capture experience, and it is these "people of insight" who gave
The highest authorities brought two extremely important news: First, the prisoners of Fanos received considerable courtesy in the invincible small mercenary group. Most of the knowledgeable people were
The small mercenary group was brought back from the life-and-death line of plague and serious injuries; secondly, the ghost god Amy Harper is not a cannibal as in the legend, but a young man who looks very elegant and kind. Amy
* Mr. Haber cordially met with every person of insight. He expressed that he understood the urgency of the residents of Fanos Continent to return to their homeland, was willing to reach a broad consensus on the peaceful reunification of both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and outlined a perfect blueprint for peaceful immigration.
The "insightful people" had similar opinions, which surprised and delighted the highest authorities of Fanos. What surprised them was that this Amy was obviously a god. Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to have two completely different incarnations - only gods can
It has such an ability; the good news is that its power is unpredictable. Obviously, now this ghost god has given up his original killing method and is willing to let the residents of Fanos continent live. Maybe... this is some kind of agreement between the gods.
.Otherwise, why would the sacred fires of the seven temples suddenly go out?
There is nothing in the world, no one bothers with it - that's probably what it means.
According to the initial agreement between the expeditionary force headquarters and the chiefs of the native tribes, the peninsula will be observed for about a year. If the epidemic is not discovered, the ban will be fully lifted. However, because of the opinions of "people of insight", first
At the beginning of the year, the plague was basically gone, but the tribal chiefs put forward a new saying: "The plague is everywhere, and it will not stop every year." In other words, one year is not safe, and if it stays for two more years, it will be one year anyway.
After waiting, the conditions were good, and they were still taking care of food and drink. After such a fuss, it was the beginning of the third year. As a result, the tribal chiefs had a new saying: "The plague will stop in three years." Otherwise, it will not stop in five years.
year; moreover, the tribal chiefs soon showed new sincerity and sent most of the surviving relatives of the expeditionary force to the prison - the implication was very clear. Since they said the plague was gone, let's first see if it would
Infected these relatives?
With this delay, another year has passed. Just when the chiefs of the native tribes really had no choice but to delay, the fleet of the Eminor Continent's expeditionary force appeared on the horizon!
At the same time, the headquarters of the Fanos Expeditionary Force, which had been well prepared, also received the same news!
War or peace, humans of the same race on the same continent must make the final choice, and the price paid for any choice will be painful.
That night, after attending the headquarters meeting, His Highness Renault was preparing to take a rest when the door of his room suddenly rang. When he opened the door, he was stunned.
The door opened, and outside the door was Renault's sister, Her Royal Highness Bi.
In the afternoon, the high command sent someone to invite Her Highness Bi to attend the joint meeting. As a result, the Queen of Magic declined due to physical discomfort. Now Renault could not find any discomfort on his sister's face.
Renault was also 30 years old at this time. He was no longer the homeless young man he once was. He was suspicious in his heart, but his face did not show it at all: "I heard that you are not in good health. Come in quickly. The sea breeze outside is blowing. Your health is important."
The two of them sat down. Bi looked at Renault blankly for a while, then sighed softly: "I heard a story before, do you want to hear it?"
Story? Renault was stunned for a moment, but he immediately understood that Bi was trying to use a story to explain something: "Haha, when I was a kid, you always pestered me and asked me to tell you stories. Okay, now I have it too.
I'm lucky enough to hear your story."
Bi smiled. A few years ago, due to the disappearance of all the magic power in her body, the blond girl had aged to the extreme. But now, as a great magician, she has become a rare source of magic energy in the world, and there are no red magic elves.
Coiled around her. She is nearly 30 years old, but her appearance does not even look 20 years old: "This story was told by an old sailor when I returned to Fanos. He said that while sailing in this ocean, occasionally
There will also be storms, and no matter how big a warship is, it will sink if it encounters a storm..."
Renault said nothing, but listened.
Bi glanced at her brother, feeling a little sad in her heart. She had just reached 30, and her eyes had obvious wrinkles, and gray hair could be seen on her temples. Alas, this was still the Dragon Knight in his prime. Looking at Renault, he didn't say anything.
, Bi continued to tell her story: "If the ship sinks, most of the passengers on the ship will have a premonition in advance, even the mice who like darkness the most, and they will escape from the sinking ship in advance."
By this time, if Renoir could no longer hear what his sister wanted to say, he would no longer be Renoir.
"Do you want us to withdraw?" Renoir's faint tone already conveyed something. Obviously, the young king was trying his best to suppress his anger. Renoir's temper and character are actually very similar to Daqingshan.
He is an extremely upright person. Regardless of whether he is on the wrong ship or not, if Bi is really trying to persuade him to give up everyone at the last moment, then with Renault's temper, there will definitely be a storm.
"No...not us, but...I...we..." Bi gently corrected Renault's language problem.
"You...you..." Renault pointed at his sister, his fingers trembling a little.
"Are you surprised? There's no need." Bi shook her blond hair slightly, and dozens of red fire elves flew out, then flew back with laughter: "Brother, maybe this is the last time I call you.
It must be clear that I am different from you. Your current throne was given to you by your family, and my current throne has nothing to do with my family. Also, it doesn’t matter whether the Myanmar Yang Empire exists or not. It is just a ten-year-old empire founded by the family.
One of many empires, but whether the Magic Empire exists or not is very important. Her history exceeds the history of the family."
"So, as the first king of the revival of this ancient empire, I must lead her to repeat the grand occasion of the past, and now, I must lead her away from this losing war!" Bi's expression became more and more serious as she spoke.
stand up.
"Defeat? It's not even a question. Who will win in the final fight of the trapped beast? I don't know. Just listen to fate and do human things." Renault agreed with his sister's statement and smiled bitterly.
"No, it is bound to be defeated! Because, what is coming here is not only the army of Eminoel, but also the army of Alcatraz Island. Moreover, I will tell you a news, Amy also has a mount dragon, and has four
The look on the colorful wings of the giant dragon." Bi's look seemed like she was telling an unrelated story.
Renault was stunned again: "How do you know?"
The golden hair trembled in the cabin again, and Bi also smiled bitterly: "The reason is very simple. The Eastern and Western Magic Empires are divided. Both us and them will inevitably arrange insiders for the other side, and the level is above the Great Magician.
In the past, the distance was too far, so no news was sent. Three days ago, when the Eminor fleet was about 500 miles away from here, the micro-magic teleportation arrays sensed each other badly, and we received a five-point emergency report. There is another news,
You may not want to hear that, it is said that Amy and the others experienced a trial on Alcatraz Island, and everyone's combat skills were greatly improved."
Huh? This news made Renault look shocked.
"Do you know the specific situation?" Renault wanted to ask in more detail.
"No, this kind of miniature teleportation array can only teleport very small things. Moreover, the internal agents do not dare to teleport too big things, otherwise, the gathering of a large number of magic elves will definitely be discovered by interested people."
Sigh... Renault couldn't control his emotions and let out a long sigh.
"Okay, if you want to leave, do you need me to dispatch a ship?" There are still more than 6,000 magicians in the Western Magic Empire on this narrow peninsula. If you want to leave, you will need at least 20 warships.
"Thank you, but no need. When I came here, we had already set up large teleportation arrays on several xx. I got the news about the bad Eminol three days ago, and the semi-permanent magic arrays here have also been set up.
Tomorrow morning, there will be no people from the Yuxi Magic Empire here."
"Oh, little sister, maybe we really won't have the chance to meet again in the future. You have to take care of yourself." Renault reached out and smoothed his blond hair - this was the most common action performed by the two children 20 years ago.
"Also, let me tell you, there is no need for you to get into trouble with the Lin family girls. If you really can't, find an opportunity to give up the throne...power really kills people." Farewell is about to happen, and Renault doesn't know what to tell his little sister.
talk.
"Brother, you are confused. Do you really think that these two empires are between me and Lin Yushang?" Bi smiled bitterly and shook his head. His brother is extremely good in everything. However, he lacks a grasp of human psychology.
, he is really not a suitable candidate to found a country in troubled times. What's more, there is a small mercenary group of four people and opponents like Yi Hailan. "There are two ways to revive the Magic Empire. The first is, of course, to unify the world.
Just like the empire 20,000 years ago; second, maintain xx and develop steadily. For the many water magicians on the original Azure Island, they are the xx of the Magic Union. For 20,000 years, the Magician Union has been telling them to rebuild a powerful empire.
The great empire that unified all the continents, so of course they inherited the first thought; and the guests on the day of the restoration were many magicians from other departments, most of them and Eminoel, who had frozen the two continents
There are inextricably complicated relationships between the forces. As magicians, they do not want there to be a huge conflict between the Magic Empire and the original forces, so they prefer the second one; and you don’t know, brother
Yes, in the 20,000-year history of the Magic Empire, there is a very strange phenomenon. When a fire magician becomes the chief elder, he must be constantly exploring the outside world; and once the natural magician becomes the chief elder, of course, the water magician becomes the chief elder.
"
Renault was stunned when he heard this, and at the same time he let out a long sigh of relief in his heart. His sister had really grown up, and he really didn't need to worry about many things anymore.
As he continued talking, Bi's eyes gradually turned red, still like the little girl 20 years ago, holding Renoir's hand: "Brother, you have always been worried about me since I was a child. I am leaving soon."
, now I also want to take care of you, okay?"
"Feeling sorry for me?" Renault laughed: "Little silly girl, I have my own sense of proportion. Just take care of yourself and don't let me worry."
"Brother, we all know that according to the rules of the family, if the family empire fails, all the children of the family who have shown up will be abandoned by the family..." The sound of "Little Silly Girl" made Bi burst into tears. He was indeed talking about the family.
Rules, and the four major families have similar rules - if you still can't establish a country with the full help of the family, then the only thing waiting for the loser is to use his life to wash away the family's shame: "Xiuda got married the year before last, what about you? You
…”
Bi was already crying.
It was a bloody night in the imperial capital. Renault had just inherited the throne. At that time, the Minister of Employment actively jumped out and wanted to choose a concubine for His Majesty the King. However, Renault politely declined, saying that he was waiting for a chance to succeed. Later, with Amy's efforts, wars broke out everywhere.
Again, the situation became more and more tense day by day. Naturally, no one thought about it anymore. His Majesty the King's marriage was delayed day by day. On the contrary, Xiuda, a year ago, the local authorities of Fanos
While sending some families from the expeditionary force to the peninsula, they met the daughter of a human officer, got married, and gave birth to a boy.
"Silly girl... don't worry so much..." Renault wiped the tears from his sister's face; "You go."
"Brother, I have just convinced four second-level magicians from the magician's guild, all of whom are only in their 20s. They are all outside the door. I am staying here. They will leave here on their own the night before the war. I'm leaving.
You have to think carefully. Your parents are only over 50 this year. If you ask them to give their white-haired daughter a black-haired daughter, you can't give them a thought. As for what to do, you decide for yourself." After saying that, Bi turned around and left.
When I got out, there was a burst of choking sounds in the dark night.
