December 3rd, when Leng Mengxue is scheduled to hold a concert, it was originally the Shangri-La's festival day. It is said that on this day thousands of years ago, a brave man who saved the world challenged the poisonous dragon for hundreds of villagers here, and finally successfully killed the dragon, allowing the people to live and work in peace and contentment.
In order to commemorate this incident, later generations decided to hold a high ceremony on this day.
In the past, when the brothel alliance mastered Shangri-La, in addition to letting performing artists participate in celebrations, they would also hold armed battle competitions, spending a lot of money to lure masters from all over the mainland to come and compete. While satisfying citizens' desire to watch the battle, they also took the opportunity to manipulate the gambling market and make a big profit.
After Shi Chong took over Shangri-La, in order to ensure that the prosperity remains the same, he needed to create a lively show that was better than the past.
From this point of view, Leng Mengxue's timely return did give Shi Chong a great help. Although he didn't have time to hold a martial arts competition, in addition to the scheduled concert, other celebrations were also arranged, and it was planned to give Shangri-La a grand banquet that was no less than in previous years on December 3rd.
Happiness is often formed by the pain of others.
The citizens of Shangri-La have more or less opinions on their current situation. No matter how well Shi Chong conceals it, many people still find it difficult to break free from the defeated person's mood and are unhappy with this conqueror who has come from afar. However, since Reins launched a massive invasion of Eltiero and the war broke out, the mood of Shangri-La citizens has changed.
They also experience war, but people in and after war have two different mentalities.
Because we get the comparison from the people of Eltiero who are suffering from war and lack of materials, Shangri-La's citizens cherish the existing prosperity and happiness. At least, they have only lost their little freedom and have not been neighbors with hunger and death.
In contrast, the Eltino people are in a worse situation.
Hulagu's basic strategy is to abandon territory outside Zhongdu and use the vast territory to consume Reince's insufficient manpower, so no matter how fierce the war is, it has nothing to do with him before the enemy's feather arrows hit the wall of Zhongdu.
Although Zhongdu itself cannot be self-sufficient, as long as it guards the supply route to the west, even if the Reiners army occupys all the east of Zhongdu, Zhongdu can still support it with its strong city wall without fear of the fierce attacks of the enemy.
Thinking about it according to a normal concept, the enemy army could not suddenly appear in Zhongdu City.Whether it is flying or digging tunnels, as long as they march in a normal way, we will definitely have time to prepare.
Hulagu's attitude is so leisurely.
In the eyes of the people of Zhongdu, it is indeed very effective in calming the people's hearts, but when the same words are heard by the people in the war zone, they inevitably feel anger, resenting their fate of being abandoned by the country.
Although Reins has always called for the country of righteousness and humanity, the dominance of this war was the dark mage of the Dark Magic Research Institute and the Bai Family Decision Group on Xixi Kojia Island. No matter which side, it has nothing to do with humanity. To put it clearly, they even lack basic humanity and should expect them to treat the people in the occupied areas well. This extravagant hope is to seek fish from the tree, but they require them to cover up the inhuman behavior after the war. These inhuman cold-blooded things are familiar with them and don’t need to give instructions.
Having said that, compared to Eltierno's vast land and wealth, Reins' military strength seemed weak. Although the elite and powerful combat power quickly eliminated the Eltierno army he encountered, when the battle ended and the actual occupation procedure began, the serious shortcomings of Reins' insufficient manpower were exposed.
There is no way, construction is different from simple destruction. If the order from the superiors is to kill all the people in the occupied area, it is a little simpler, but the problems of soothing people's hearts and expanding supplies cannot be left to the robots.
During the continuous wars, an officer of the Five-Color Flag expressed such feelings when contacting Xixi Kojia Island, which indeed represented the voice and dilemma of the Reince Army.
However, aside from the victims who have been dealt with without evidence, Reince generally maintains supplies and public order in the occupied areas, giving the Eltero people a better feeling than before.
However, in order to race against resources and time, the Reince army shortened the offensive route, no longer expend more troops, and advanced straight toward the middle.
Judging from the rapid annihilation of the enemy and expanding the scope of occupation, the Reince army is proud, proving that they not only have excellent methods to deal with the demons, but also have equally powerful measures to deal with the human army.
But in addition to winning streaks, they also have hidden worries: on the one hand, the Third Legion, which was intact in Zhongdu, was a powerful enemy of unknown strength, and it is unknown how Hulagu trained them; on the other hand, Eltino's strongest Second Legion was marching from Free City, preparing for a tail-end attack.
Although the commander Zhou Gongjin was not present, the Second Legion was still a healthy brigade with both strength and fighting spirit. If the Reince army was attacked from front and back under the command of Hulagu, then the Reince army, which was at an absolute disadvantage in number, might even be destroyed overnight.
The heads of major forces were closely watching the evolution of the situation and speculating on how Reince responded.Gengoro and Izumi Sakura, who are in Free City, have discussed this several times in private.
Hua Bianque could use military orders without authorization and launch a war. However, the entire war procedure was meticulous and smooth and could not find a redundant order. This was not something that could be accomplished by her arbitrary spoof. Behind it, there must be someone from the Bai family who is in charge of the overall situation.
Gengoro speculated this a long time ago, but he could not be sure whether Bai Qi had made a comeback. He could only lock the speculation on the Demon Island and could not be sure of the special object.
There are certain signs to follow in the style of the Bai family, so based on this, they speculate that their possible way of adapting is...
Take advantage of the advantages of less military strength and rapid action, first avoid the fate of being attacked, and then try to defeat the enemies one by one; or turn back and set an ambush on the Second Legion first, and strike head-on; or maybe you can...
Gengoro and Izumi Sakura thought about seven or eight response strategies, each of which had feasible points, but they also had considerable risks. As long as one mistake in action, the blitzkrieg turned into a head-on battle, or was dragged down by the enemy at all costs and lost the advantage of rapid action, it could wipe out Reins' entire army.
How would Reins direct this war?
How to avoid the fate of being attacked?
This is a puzzle that makes major forces rack their brains.
Whether it was Gengoro, who was dizzy in Free City, or Hulagu, who was leisurely in Nakadu City, they were all looking forward to the answer to this question. However, at this time, they could not have imagined that the answer would be revealed in this way.
The answer to the mystery was that in the early morning of December 2, a piece of military text was sent to the Second Legion urgently. Within a quarter of an hour after receiving the text, the Second Legion changed its marching direction and gave up attacking the Reince army to the northeast, but instead headed towards the west, hoping to rush back to The Hague in the shortest time.
Sima Zhongda raised troops and the witch army invaded in a large scale. Please return to defense quickly!
The emergency information contained in this military order was soon spread to all parts of the Wind Continent, and the person who received the news woke up as if he was in a dream and recalled Eltino's number one external trouble.
Originally, the Second Legion was stationed in The Hague to prevent enemy troops from invading from the other side of the sea.
Just as the Five Color Flag has fought with the demons for many years, the Second Legion has always confronted the Wu Kingdom army from the Ice Continent and fought frequently.
In the official record, no army from another continent has ever attacked the Wind Continent across the sea, but the real identity of those soldiers who used regular military equipment and weapons under the banner of pirates is self-evident. They repeatedly disturbed the border and robbed, trying to obtain supplies from the Wind Continent.
During the Zhongdu Incident several months ago, Gongjin mobilized the Second Legion to leave the defense and attacked the Free City in one fell swoop, becoming an unexpected surprise, but the base of The Hague was then empty and in a state of unpreparedness.
Although this move is a risk, it also has a basis for taking risks. The dozens of information obtained by Gongjin clearly showed that the regimes on the two continents, Bing and Yan, were in a fierce battle, and the military power was extremely tight. Although Sima Zhongda was eager to obtain supplies from other places, his own front line was at a critical moment, and it was impossible to dispatch a large army to attack The Hague.
Based on this judgment, Gongjin believed that The Hague could maintain a security state of about half a year, so he mobilized the Second Legion to conquer the free city, but he never thought that in just a few months, the strong enemy on the other side of the sea could get rid of the dilemma of the quagmire war and in turn attack the Wind Continent.
Perhaps because of the plan to make a quick decision, the number and scale of the witch army attacks this time are ten times that of the past, and the huge fleet of 200,000 people is approaching the Hague.
In terms of distance, it is possible to keep the route of the Second Legion unchanged, attack Reins, and Hulagu personally led the Third Legion to The Hague, so that it is more abundant in distance and time. However, the shortcomings of the generals Eltino were exposed at this time. Hulagu was unwilling to consume his strength in this matter at all. On the one hand, he ordered the Third Legion to defend Zhongdu, while on the other hand, he urgently sent the Second Legion to rush back to The Hague.
The source of the Medici family's power is Wu Lian, and in Eltino's territory is the southwest. Even if the entire Eltino is ravaged by war, as long as the southwest is safe and sound, it will not damage their economic strength.
Taking this as the main premise, when Hulagu saw through the purpose of the witch army attacking was just for plunder, not for a long time, it became an insignificant trivial matter.
Originally, Hulagu was not the kind of emperor who cared about the suffering of the people. Since the enemy who could truly threaten him was Reins, how could he have any reason to consume precious troops on others?
Just leave the war of this level to the Second Legion.
Under Hulagu's strategy, the Second Legion became the most fatigued group of soldiers on the Wind Continent.
Seeing that they were about to enter the occupied area of Reines, fighting to the death with the hateful enemy, and taking back their hometown, news of their hometown being invaded by the enemy was heard. Everyone was angry and moaned their chests and stamped their feet. They had to give up the attack and rushed to The Hague immediately.
Psychologically speaking, The Hague is their hometown and the place where their parents, wives and children are located. The Second Legion, which has been fighting against the Wu Kingdom Army for many years, knows the other party's brutal destructive methods. As long as they think that their relatives are in such danger, who can feel at ease?
Even if Zhou Gongjin was in charge, it would probably be difficult to soothe the soldiers' fears. What's more, Gongjin was not there, and the one who temporarily took over the command of the task was only Jiang Zhong, who was the deputy, was unable to suppress the soldiers' movements. What's more, they received the order from Hulagu. If they disobeyed the order, it would be like a rebellion against the king.
In public and private matters, the generals of the Second Legion could no longer find a reason, so they had to abandon Reince's army hatefully and turn to the west and move quickly.
In fact, if Eltino had never been in such a dilemma a few months ago, even if Shi Chong refused to send troops back to aid and Hulagu refused to transfer his troops from the capital, Hulagu could still issue an order to Wu Lian and let Wang Wu lead the Fifth Legion to attack.
Even though he is unwilling to obey Eltino's orders, Wang Wu, who acts in a humane spirit, will definitely not stand by and watch, but will immediately mobilize a large army to personally resist the invasion of the thief army from another continent. However, at this moment when Wang Wu was seriously injured, everyone in the Wulian Beast Clan was filled with righteous indignation. How could he come to help?
Hulagu is definitely not a stupid person, but it is because he is too smart and good at planning for himself that he is taking advantage of it.Generally speaking, smart people have too much selfishness. They take into account the overall situation but reduce the bargaining chips in their hands. This kind of thing is meaningless and Hulagu will not do it.
Bai Qi once said this on Devil Island.
Hulagu and Zhou Gongjin are both smart people who can make every move. If they want to compete with them in a clever way and make a move, it will be difficult. However, they will never leave the sect. As long as they are still humans, there will be people's desires and emotions. If you grasp these things and speculate on their ideas, then you will definitely be inseparable.
Having said that, the subordinates who followed Bai Qi were all very impressed because he was able to drive the army of the foreign continent to attack The Hague at this critical time, and to perfectly defend the Second Legion, which made no one else on the eastern battlefield. I really don’t know how to do such a magical trick. Could it be that he could only contact the foreign continent by blowing on the beach like this every day?
But... the Ice Continent is located on the west side of the Wind Continent, and Young Master Bai Qi looked east. No matter how telepathic his mind is, this kind of thing is too incredible, right?
It is impossible to send troops to an agreement.If there is a Chiba Home Furnishing arrangement, it may be a bit feasible, but in the history we know, there has never been a military alliance between the four continents, and never a cross-continental contract has been concluded.
Bai Qi answered his subordinate's questions lightly. Sitting in a mechanical wheelchair, his expression was still calm and calm. He simply turned the wheelchair and looked at the distant end of the sea and sky. The rose sunset clouds felt the disappearance of time and his life span.
In his hand, he was playing with a hard card as big as a palm. Some subordinates recognized it as the gift given to Lancelo by Li Yu. Reins once received a generous military expenditure beyond imagination. However, due to unrestrained and unlimited withdrawals, the gold card was cancelled a few days ago and was invalidated. I wonder why Young Master Bai Qi was still reluctant to leave this piece of waste paper and played with it again and again.
With proper intelligence and judgment, sometimes a piece of waste paper is enough to drive a big country...
Bai Qi's whisper was confused. No one understood the meaning of this sentence except Oda Ka, who was following him, nor did anyone know that just a few days ago, the Yan Continental Army, which was fighting the Wu Kingdom army, suddenly announced the withdrawal of its troops. There was no sign in advance, and it suddenly abandoned its defense and retreated far away to the outer line of its own border.
The Wu army, which suddenly relieved the pressure, had no time to pursue. After a suspicious investigation, it was confirmed that the enemy was really leaving, not using the strategy of luring the enemy. Then, the Wu army, which finally managed to take a breath, turned its attention to The Hague, which was completely unprepared, because Zhou Gongjin moved his army and invaded in a large-scale manner, and had to plunder supplies before the powerful enemy attacked again.
The source of this series of changes was naturally the strange behavior of the Flame Continental Army. It clearly gained the upper hand in the war, but it inexplicably withdrew its troops. What is the purpose of?
The truth of this puzzle was leaked several months later. In order to respond to a bizarre huge expense, the current military expenditure was emptied and could no longer support the existing war scale. In order to avoid the front collapse, the military headquarters had to withdraw its troops.
This incident is ridiculous, but it has indeed affected the military and political situation between the three continents. The Yan Zhi Continent even listed this matter as the highest secret. Everyone in the military decision-making class was ashamed of it. In fact, it was only a little short of the time that the angry generals and officials were about to turn around the army and attack the Feng Zhi Continent first.
In short, Bai Qi successfully defended his bold words and prevented the Second Legion from entering the battlefield in the east, while the Reince army advanced to the middle. At the same time, some commotions extended from Shangri-La occurred in the Free City, one of which was in a small town on the western border - Dog Shit Mountain.
Another more formal name is Snow Mountain. As the name suggests, it is the largest residence of the Snow Tribe tribe on the Wind Continent.
According to geographical relationships, this place actually belongs to the territory of Wulian, but the orcs in Wulian were unwilling to admit that there were a large number of Xuetes in their territory and would rather regard this mountain as a free urban territory.
Although the actual distance remains unchanged, psychologically speaking, it is better to be adjacent than to live together.
The village where the Xuete people gathered is like a garbage dump to other races. Of course, no one will take the initiative to come and get intoxicated. However, because of the Xuete people's habit, they often pick up some messy things when they go out for a meal, including some treasures, so occasionally some merchants will come to visit, enduring the unhappiness of contact with the Xuete people and conducting trade.
What is rarely known to outsiders is that in this lonely and secluded mountain, there is a magnificent temple.
Although the scale is not very large, the decoration is really gorgeous. Not only are the floors and beams and columns covered with gold foil, but the main beams are also decorated with various gems and crystals, sapphires, red agate, green jade, amethyst, yellow amber... The magnificent brilliance of different colors surrounds the golden pillars like a rainbow, which makes people almost unable to open their eyes.
The building materials and decoration are extremely luxurious, but the overall building seems too vulgar, like the residence of a nouveau riche, which makes people involuntarily despise it.
However, as long as we think about how much effort and time it takes for the Xuete people to build this temple, the standards for criticism will be much relaxed when they think about the deep mountains and wild ridges and the poor daily life.
The religious view of the Schetes belongs to polytheistic religions, and even a bit fetishistic belief. I believe that there are elves in each object. Whenever you see something special, you will pick it up and worship it. Therefore, on the altar of this golden temple, there are gods of various religions in a mess, such as the statue of Reinz, the pictures of the sages of the White Deer Cave, the cross of the Holy Church of Jerusalem, and the roots of some thousand-year-old trees and the wreckage of super large stones. Some things cannot even be named. It seems more appropriate to say that they are garbage pits than altars.
In the eyes of outsiders, it is incredible that the Scite people have always been greedy and selfish, so it would be so incredible that they would build such a grand temple.
However, the Sertes, who lived in this village, devoutly worshipped the treasures and silver in the temple, praying for the blessing of the gods.
They are not greedy for money, but they are more eager to get something invisible than treasures, such as being able to travel freely without being discriminated against by other races. The remote mountain they live in can be restored to its original name Asa Bru, not because of its residents, they are called Dog Shit Mountain or Snow Mountain by the outside world.
It is because of such expectations that expensive objects in the Scite Temple have never been stolen for thousands of years, and the outside world does not know that there is such a gorgeous building in the deep mountains, so there has never been a robbery incident, and to this day...
A large group of thousands of people attacked the Xuete Mountain with a lightning speed. Regardless of equipment and scale, they were not comparable to ordinary wandering thieves.
The Sertes quickly confirmed that the visitor was Eltino's regular army. For some reason, Eltino's soldiers attacked the Sertes' village, killed everyone, and set fire to the houses they could see.
Some people tried to avoid the temple, but a black shadow falling from the sky flew to the entrance of the temple. The black bat wings reminded the Seth people of an ominous whisper recently: There was an extremely evil peerless ferocious beast whose bat wings flew by, death and destruction also arrived at the same time.
Qi... Qires?
The short Snow Elder said the ominous name in a trembling voice, while the visitor answered all this with killing.
In order to protect the temple, the Scites fought a very short battle, but because of the huge difference in combat power between them, the battle did not even get intense, and it turned into a unilateral bloody massacre.
Finally, the man who won the victory shook off the flesh and blood fragments on his hands expressionlessly, stepped on the golden stairs stained with blood, and slowly entered the temple.
...The golden image...where has it been put?Couldn't these Chets be hidden?I have to send Shangri-La, and I don’t have much time to waste...
After a brief search, he found the golden statue cast by Long Beethoven himself in a corner of the temple. As soon as he reached out to pick it up, a young girl's voice came from the door of the temple.
There is a saying in the ancient proverb: Don’t grab food from the bowl of the Scite.It means not to compete with beggars for food, which means to advise people not to kill them all... Young man, don't you look like a fool, why do you come to follow this foolish behavior?
In order to commemorate this incident, later generations decided to hold a high ceremony on this day.
In the past, when the brothel alliance mastered Shangri-La, in addition to letting performing artists participate in celebrations, they would also hold armed battle competitions, spending a lot of money to lure masters from all over the mainland to come and compete. While satisfying citizens' desire to watch the battle, they also took the opportunity to manipulate the gambling market and make a big profit.
After Shi Chong took over Shangri-La, in order to ensure that the prosperity remains the same, he needed to create a lively show that was better than the past.
From this point of view, Leng Mengxue's timely return did give Shi Chong a great help. Although he didn't have time to hold a martial arts competition, in addition to the scheduled concert, other celebrations were also arranged, and it was planned to give Shangri-La a grand banquet that was no less than in previous years on December 3rd.
Happiness is often formed by the pain of others.
The citizens of Shangri-La have more or less opinions on their current situation. No matter how well Shi Chong conceals it, many people still find it difficult to break free from the defeated person's mood and are unhappy with this conqueror who has come from afar. However, since Reins launched a massive invasion of Eltiero and the war broke out, the mood of Shangri-La citizens has changed.
They also experience war, but people in and after war have two different mentalities.
Because we get the comparison from the people of Eltiero who are suffering from war and lack of materials, Shangri-La's citizens cherish the existing prosperity and happiness. At least, they have only lost their little freedom and have not been neighbors with hunger and death.
In contrast, the Eltino people are in a worse situation.

Within a quarter of an hour after receiving the text, the Second Legion changed its marching direction and gave up attacking the Reince army to the northeast, but instead headed towards the west, hoping to rush back to The Hague in the shortest time.
Sima Zhongda raised troops and the witch army invaded in a large scale. Please return to defense quickly!
The emergency information contained in this military order was soon spread to all parts of the Wind Continent, and the person who received the news woke up as if he was in a dream and recalled Eltino's number one external trouble.

Perhaps because of the plan to make a quick decision, the number and scale of the witch army attacks this time are ten times that of the past, and the huge fleet of 200,000 people is approaching the Hague.
In terms of distance, it is possible to keep the route of the Second Legion unchanged, attack Reins, and Hulagu personally led the Third Legion to The Hague, so that it is more abundant in distance and time. However, the shortcomings of the generals Eltino were exposed at this time. Hulagu was unwilling to consume his strength in this matter at all. On the one hand, he ordered the Third Legion to defend Zhongdu, while on the other hand, he urgently sent the Second Legion to rush back to The Hague.
The source of the Medici family's power is Wu Lian, and in Eltino's territory is the southwest. Even if the entire Eltino is ravaged by war, as long as the southwest is safe and sound, it will not damage their economic strength.
Taking this as the main premise, when Hulagu saw through the purpose of the witch army attacking was just for plunder, not for a long time, it became an insignificant trivial matter.
Originally, Hulagu was not the kind of emperor who cared about the suffering of the people. Since the enemy who could truly threaten him was Reins, how could he have any reason to consume precious troops on others?
Just leave the war of this level to the Second Legion.
Under Hulagu's strategy, the Second Legion became the most fatigued group of soldiers on the Wind Continent.
Seeing that they were about to enter the occupied area of Reines, fighting to the death with the hateful enemy, and taking back their hometown, news of their hometown being invaded by the enemy was heard. Everyone was angry and moaned their chests and stamped their feet. They had to give up the attack and rushed to The Hague immediately.
Psychologically speaking, The Hague is their hometown and the place where their parents, wives and children are located. The Second Legion, which has been fighting against the Wu Kingdom Army for many years, knows the other party's brutal destructive methods. As long as they think that their relatives are in such danger, who can feel at ease?
Even if Zhou Gongjin was in charge, it would probably be difficult to soothe the soldiers' fears. What's more, Gongjin was not there, and the one who temporarily took over the command of the task was only Jiang Zhong, who was the deputy, was unable to suppress the soldiers' movements. What's more, they received the order from Hulagu. If they disobeyed the order, it would be like a rebellion against the king.
In public and private matters, the generals of the Second Legion could no longer find a reason, so they had to abandon Reince's army hatefully and turn to the west and move quickly.
In fact, if Eltino had never been in such a dilemma a few months ago, even if Shi Chong refused to send troops back to aid and Hulagu refused to transfer his troops from the capital, Hulagu could still issue an order to Wu Lian and let Wang Wu lead the Fifth Legion to attack.
Even though he is unwilling to obey Eltino's orders, Wang Wu, who acts in a humane spirit, will definitely not stand by and watch, but will immediately mobilize a large army to personally resist the invasion of the thief army from another continent. However, at this moment when Wang Wu was seriously injured, everyone in the Wulian Beast Clan was filled with righteous indignation. How could he come to help?
Hulagu is definitely not a stupid person, but it is because he is too smart and good at planning for himself that he is taking advantage of it.Generally speaking, smart people have too much selfishness. They take into account the overall situation but reduce the bargaining chips in their hands. This kind of thing is meaningless and Hulagu will not do it.
Bai Qi once said this on Devil Island.
Hulagu and Zhou Gongjin are both smart people who can make every move. If they want to compete with them in a clever way and make a move, it will be difficult. However, they will never leave the sect. As long as they are still humans, there will be people's desires and emotions. If you grasp these things and speculate on their ideas, then you will definitely be inseparable.
Having said that, the subordinates who followed Bai Qi were all very impressed because he was able to drive the army of the foreign continent to attack The Hague at this critical time, and to perfectly defend the Second Legion, which made no one else on the eastern battlefield. I really don’t know how to do such a magical trick. Could it be that he could only contact the foreign continent by blowing on the beach like this every day?
But... the Ice Continent is located on the west side of the Wind Continent, and Young Master Bai Qi looked east. No matter how telepathic his mind is, this kind of thing is too incredible, right?
It is impossible to send troops to an agreement.If there is a Chiba Home Furnishing arrangement, it may be a bit feasible, but in the history we know, there has never been a military alliance between the four continents, and never a cross-continental contract has been concluded.
Bai Qi answered his subordinate's questions lightly. Sitting in a mechanical wheelchair, his expression was still calm and calm. He simply turned the wheelchair and looked at the distant end of the sea and sky. The rose sunset clouds felt the disappearance of time and his life span.
In his hand, he was playing with a hard card as big as a palm. Some subordinates recognized it as the gift given to Lancelo by Li Yu. Reins once received a generous military expenditure beyond imagination. However, due to unrestrained and unlimited withdrawals, the gold card was cancelled a few days ago and was invalidated. I wonder why Young Master Bai Qi was still reluctant to leave this piece of waste paper and played with it again and again.
With proper intelligence and judgment, sometimes a piece of waste paper is enough to drive a big country...
Bai Qi's whisper was confused. No one understood the meaning of this sentence except Oda Ka, who was following him, nor did anyone know that just a few days ago, the Yan Continental Army, which was fighting the Wu Kingdom army, suddenly announced the withdrawal of its troops. There was no sign in advance, and it suddenly abandoned its defense and retreated far away to the outer line of its own border.
The Wu army, which suddenly relieved the pressure, had no time to pursue. After a suspicious investigation, it was confirmed that the enemy was really leaving, not using the strategy of luring the enemy. Then, the Wu army, which finally managed to take a breath, turned its attention to The Hague, which was completely unprepared, because Zhou Gongjin moved his army and invaded in a large-scale manner, and had to plunder supplies before the powerful enemy attacked again.
The source of this series of changes was naturally the strange behavior of the Flame Continental Army. It clearly gained the upper hand in the war, but it inexplicably withdrew its troops. What is the purpose of?
The truth of this puzzle was leaked several months later. In order to respond to a bizarre huge expense, the current military expenditure was emptied and could no longer support the existing war scale. In order to avoid the front collapse, the military headquarters had to withdraw its troops.
This incident is ridiculous, but it has indeed affected the military and political situation between the three continents. The Yan Zhi Continent even listed this matter as the highest secret. Everyone in the military decision-making class was ashamed of it. In fact, it was only a little short of the time that the angry generals and officials were about to turn around the army and attack the Feng Zhi Continent first.
In short, Bai Qi successfully defended his bold words and prevented the Second Legion from entering the battlefield in the east, while the Reince army advanced to the middle. At the same time, some commotions extended from Shangri-La occurred in the Free City, one of which was in a small town on the western border - Dog Shit Mountain.
Another more formal name is Snow Mountain. As the name suggests, it is the largest residence of the Snow Tribe tribe on the Wind Continent.
According to geographical relationships, this place actually belongs to the territory of Wulian, but the orcs in Wulian were unwilling to admit that there were a large number of Xuetes in their territory and would rather regard this mountain as a free urban territory.
Although the actual distance remains unchanged, psychologically speaking, it is better to be adjacent than to live together.
The village where the Xuete people gathered is like a garbage dump to other races. Of course, no one will take the initiative to come and get intoxicated. However, because of the Xuete people's habit, they often pick up some messy things when they go out for a meal, including some treasures, so occasionally some merchants will come to visit, enduring the unhappiness of contact with the Xuete people and conducting trade.
What is rarely known to outsiders is that in this lonely and secluded mountain, there is a magnificent temple.
Although the scale is not very large, the decoration is really gorgeous. Not only are the floors and beams and columns covered with gold foil, but the main beams are also decorated with various gems and crystals, sapphires, red agate, green jade, amethyst, yellow amber... The magnificent brilliance of different colors surrounds the golden pillars like a rainbow, which makes people almost unable to open their eyes.
The building materials and decoration are extremely luxurious, but the overall building seems too vulgar, like the residence of a nouveau riche, which makes people involuntarily despise it.
However, as long as we think about how much effort and time it takes for the Xuete people to build this temple, the standards for criticism will be much relaxed when they think about the deep mountains and wild ridges and the poor daily life.
The religious view of the Schetes belongs to polytheistic religions, and even a bit fetishistic belief. I believe that there are elves in each object. Whenever you see something special, you will pick it up and worship it. Therefore, on the altar of this golden temple, there are gods of various religions in a mess, such as the statue of Reinz, the pictures of the sages of the White Deer Cave, the cross of the Holy Church of Jerusalem, and the roots of some thousand-year-old trees and the wreckage of super large stones. Some things cannot even be named. It seems more appropriate to say that they are garbage pits than altars.
In the eyes of outsiders, it is incredible that the Scite people have always been greedy and selfish, so it would be so incredible that they would build such a grand temple.
However, the Sertes, who lived in this village, devoutly worshipped the treasures and silver in the temple, praying for the blessing of the gods.
They are not greedy for money, but they are more eager to get something invisible than treasures, such as being able to travel freely without being discriminated against by other races. The remote mountain they live in can be restored to its original name Asa Bru, not because of its residents, they are called Dog Shit Mountain or Snow Mountain by the outside world.
It is because of such expectations that expensive objects in the Scite Temple have never been stolen for thousands of years, and the outside world does not know that there is such a gorgeous building in the deep mountains, so there has never been a robbery incident, and to this day...
A large group of thousands of people attacked the Xuete Mountain with a lightning speed. Regardless of equipment and scale, they were not comparable to ordinary wandering thieves.
The Sertes quickly confirmed that the visitor was Eltino's regular army. For some reason, Eltino's soldiers attacked the Sertes' village, killed everyone, and set fire to the houses they could see.
Some people tried to avoid the temple, but a black shadow falling from the sky flew to the entrance of the temple. The black bat wings reminded the Seth people of an ominous whisper recently: There was an extremely evil peerless ferocious beast whose bat wings flew by, death and destruction also arrived at the same time.
Qi... Qires?
The short Snow Elder said the ominous name in a trembling voice, while the visitor answered all this with killing.
In order to protect the temple, the Scites fought a very short battle, but because of the huge difference in combat power between them, the battle did not even get intense, and it turned into a unilateral bloody massacre.
Finally, the man who won the victory shook off the flesh and blood fragments on his hands expressionlessly, stepped on the golden stairs stained with blood, and slowly entered the temple.
...The golden image...where has it been put?Couldn't these Chets be hidden?I have to send Shangri-La, and I don’t have much time to waste...
After a brief search, he found the golden statue cast by Long Beethoven himself in a corner of the temple. As soon as he reached out to pick it up, a young girl's voice came from the door of the temple.
There is a saying in the ancient proverb: Don’t grab food from the bowl of the Scite.It means not to compete with beggars for food, which means to advise people not to kill them all... Young man, don't you look like a fool, why do you come to follow this foolish behavior?
