Chapter 438 Ten Years
Farther away, ordinary people can't go.
There is a gap in both logistics and strength.
When the demons fled into the wilderness, many demons of all sizes gathered in groups.
Although the scale is generally small and cannot stand up to the regular army, it is not something that today's adventurers can challenge.
However, their existence has also found out the relevant distribution for the army.
Like scalpels, the knights struck with precision, knocking out one gathering point after another.
Demons have appeared for several years, and demonic beasts have also produced generations.
They are powerful and have all kinds of talents, and ordinary beasts are no match at all.
Now even a rabbit can fight against the tiger of the past.
Therefore, south of the Hengduan Mountains, there are almost no ordinary creatures.
Most of those who are still alive are Warcraft.
This has given Seris another wave of resources.
Next, adventurers follow the army to the north and south, providing information and finding out the way forward, and in some ways, they are better than army scouts.
In three years, under the auspices of Marlon, Seris recovered the entire Central Province.
All the way steadily, the army advanced to one place, and the adventurers immediately followed.
Then there are the businessmen who are attracted by the benefits.
When things return to normal, the consuls will arrive, and at the same time a group of residents will be moved.
It took only three years for the Central Province to be regained, and the population was scattered, and the originally crowded Northern Province was suddenly emptied.
And in order to recover the southern provinces, Malone spent seven years, no more, no less, a full ten years.
The reason why it has been used for so long is indeed that it is underpopulated.
Seris was already empty, the land was vast and sparsely populated, and when the demons invaded, everyone was gathered in the north, although it was to avoid disaster, but it has to be said that it also created the prosperity of the north.
Today, when bread trees are planted all over the country, the land is far less attractive than it used to be, and many people who live in big cities naturally do not want to return.
Then there is the southern province near Guderian, where not only demons exist, but also patches of undead.
Relatively speaking, they may be more difficult to deal with.
A few years ago, the demon commander who attacked Guderian finally failed to stop the joint encirclement and suppression of the sect venerable and An Lek, and was drowned in the sea of corpses and bones.
The demons in the east, like those in the north, have become scattered sand.
Although the portal is constantly coming out, it is difficult to become a subordinate, and it is no longer much of a threat.
On the contrary, on the southwest side, the demon was in the main offensive position, and I don't know if it was really so strong, or if the two kings had some calculations.
Marlon is now on the border of the Southern Province, on the border with Guderian, and presides over the construction of the Great Wall.
Stark and several other generals led the main force of the army to intercept the undead.
For more than ten years, it has been deserted, and most of the places here have become the territory of the undead, except for the places occupied by demons.
If the situation changes in the future, whether it is an order from An Lek or the Sect Honorable, these guys will be spies who have broken into the kingdom and destroyed them, and they must be cleaned up no matter what.
There are armies from all walks of life to resist the army of the undead, and Malone personally takes a thousand Praetorian Guards to guard the engineering team.
The engineering team consisted of Stone Giant and Octopus 8 as the main construction force, assisted by a group of wizards and engineers.
All the buildings are made of local materials, built against the mountain, and use the power of the mountain to block the army of the undead that may arrive.
Seeing that the project is gradually completed, the kingdom is about to return to peace again, and Malone has to return to the royal capital.
In fact, he didn't come out for a long time, and now all the armies of Seris have grown up, not only officers, but also ordinary soldiers are all masters, and generally there is no need for Malone to come out himself.
It was only in order to build the Great Wall quickly that he needed the help of the stone giant, so he came out.
Under the action of extraordinary power, the amount of work that usually takes years and decades can be completed in less than a year, which can also be called the speed of Seris!
In the past ten years, Ma Long has not been on the battlefield much, but his experience is endless, and he is already full at this time.
The knight king who is full of level 20 has no way forward on the panel.
Unless there is a new breakthrough, this is the limit.
As for the method of breakthrough, he knew it in his heart, and in fact, he had been in contact with it a long time ago.
Over the years, I have also guided in that direction, intentionally or unintentionally.
- Faith!
The sun god was meant for himself.
Ma Long rode the red rabbit, followed by a thousand guards, and embarked on a journey back to Zhongzhou City.
These 1,000 guards have been killed and wounded for more than ten years, some of them have been rescued, and some of them have died.
However, the strength of this force is not low, and the formation of the Praetorian Guard is the reason for Ma Long's skills.
It's just a limit of 1,000 people.
Whenever someone dies, there will naturally be a new person to fill in, and after swearing allegiance, Marlon exerts the king's military power, and they can be blessed.
Not only did the strength of the Praetorian Guards not decrease, but as they killed the enemy, their strength also steadily increased like that of ordinary armies.
And after death, it will be passed on to the successor.
As for retirement, the Praetorian Guard did not say anything about retirement.
Each member is a carefully selected and devout person who is willing to dedicate their lives to it!
Ma Long went all the way to the north, and the land route he took could also be accompanied by the river from time to time.
As far as the eye could see, horse-drawn wagons transporting north and south were slowly moving forward with heavy loads.
These were the pioneers of the various caravans, and although they were hard, they all had smiles on their faces.
After all, this trip is really profitable.
Although some of them are given to the guards as commissions, they make a lot of money.
The caravan guards, mostly adventurers.
They have a complex composition and have their own origins, but the most popular is definitely a retired member of the army.
Although he may be older, he has been fighting with the troops in the south and north for half his life, killing countless enemies, and under the effect of experience, they are all strong.
Some of them are not used to living a life of retirement after retirement, and they raise weapons again, but this time they are fighting for themselves.
They are reputable, well-established, and strong, and are naturally welcomed by employers.
Although he is older, under the cover of so many high-quality conditions, everything is not a problem.
The only pity is that there are too few such people!
The soldiers are old and retired, and Malone has arranged their future.
Most of them are transferred to local positions, such as school teaching, militia leaders, etc., and they can receive a salary.
There is no job arrangement, and there will also be a large retirement fee.
No matter what, don't run for life.
Most of them have been fighting for half their lives, and they are indeed tired and do not want to go to the battlefield again.
But there are also some people who are not used to living an ordinary life, and when they go home, they pick up their weapons again and form a team with familiar or unfamiliar comrades.
Every time it appears, it will be fought over by caravans!
The current trade route is not very smooth, although it is a north-south traffic avenue, but from time to time there are undead spawns.
There are also escaped demons hiding in the mountains and forests, and sometimes there are cases of attacking humans.
Fortunately, the current civilians are not as weak and deceitful as they were at the beginning.
All of them have the physique of knights, and they have swordsmanship trained since childhood, so they are not weak hands.
