Chapter 547: The Still Noisy Spring
In the midst of two days of war. This noisy winter has finally come to an end. The fire fairy of Elasi ushered in the most pleasant spring of the year.
Spring is often described as a hopeful beginning in many literary works, but this year's spring was not a hopeful beginning for many people on the continent of Erathia.
After a winter of fierce fighting, the battle between the two feuds of the Bracada Mage Kingdom and the Krurod Barbarian Kingdom finally turned into a tug-of-war that the two sides least wanted to see, the armies of the two countries fought fiercely on the border, and countless soldiers fell on this blood-stained desert many times, but despite the heavy price, neither side could gain the upper hand or gain anything from this war.
But even so, both sides still have no intention of stopping, for this war, both sides have invested too much manpower, material and financial resources, and no side is willing to easily admit defeat after paying so much price. As one of the old kingdoms on the continent, the Bracada Mage Kingdom has inherited the mantle of the Bracadon Empire, and is also one of the members of the Holy Alliance, so it is naturally strong, and Bracada is the most intact country in the last war that swept the entire continent, and it has been recuperating for many years after the war, which can be said to be full of stamina, so although the current war situation is stalemate, the Bracada army really has no reason to give up.
What's more, the Krulrod barbarians really hit the muzzle of the gun this time, and completely provoked the immortal king Magnus, with this thief as the fuse, Magnus all the anger accumulated in the past two years because of his great plan did not go well broke out at one time, and the barbarians were angered to a full ten, and now the immortal king gritted his teeth and wanted to teach the new king of the barbarians who did not know the height of the sky and the earth, so that the other party knew, How serious the consequences of provoking him to anger were.
On the side of the Krurod Barbarian Kingdom, under the leadership of the new king, the Behemoth Lord Korg, the Barbarian Lord Alliance's coalition is now like a gambler with a red eye, and is eager to turn over the book, of course, he will not just stop.
In Tetaria before, the barbarian lords could be said to have made a lot of money, but they were too carried away, and they actually wanted to take advantage of the great victory on the Bracada side, but in front of the powerful Bracada army, they did not take advantage of it, but because of the stalemate of the war and spit out all the previous gains, some people even posted some old books, it can be said that stealing chickens and losing rice, in this case, of course, the barbarian lords will not be willing to retreat.
And with the heroic and warlike giant beast lord Korg here, it is still two to say who will die in this battle.
Using the battle for the throne, as well as the battle of Tetaria, as well as many outstanding performances in the current war, the new king Korg has successfully conquered the hearts of a number of barbarian lords, and now in the eyes of the barbarian lords, the young giant beast lord Korg is definitely comparable to the war genius of the barbarian tyrant Tanan who overthrew the Brakaton Empire, under his leadership, although the barbarian coalition army is inferior to the opponent in terms of strength and strength, but it can still be invincible, many times with less to win more, with the weak to overcome the strong, Let the Krurod army achieve glorious results that have not been seen for many years, and if it were not for the reinforcement of the front line again and again on the side of Bracada, the barbarian coalition would have won a complete victory.
Therefore, although the war did not go well, and the military expenditure began to put pressure on the barbarian lords, they were still full of fighting spirit and morale.
On the other hand, the new king Korg did not allow this crucial war for him to end in failure, he is now also riding a tiger, this ambitious beast lord knows very well what kind of impact it will have on his future reign if he suffers such a big defeat on the battlefield soon after he came to power, the barbarian lords are all mercenary guys, if they can't bring them enough benefits, it is tantamount to a fool's dream to get their support, Not to mention that they suffered heavy losses due to defeat.
Korg couldn't tolerate such a bad situation, so no matter how difficult it was, he had to grit his teeth and persevere.
The war between the two countries continues to expand, and it is natural that the people who suffer the most in this war are the ordinary people in the lower echelons of society in both countries.
In Krurod, the huge military expenses of the lords were undoubtedly passed on to the common people, and the various taxes made the people miserable, not to mention a series of labor and military service that accompanied the war, and all kinds of social contradictions were exacerbated by this.
Bracada's side was not much better, and the strength of the Krurod army under the leadership of Korg was far beyond the imagination of the magicians, so the Bracada army, which had been lightly attacked at the beginning, suffered a big loss, and the division legion did not lose much from dry to good protection, but the loss of things reached one. To a staggering extent, a large number of gargoyles, stone men, and iron men were destroyed on the battlefield, these magical creatures were expensive and complex to make, and required a lot of magic materials to complete, and most of them could not be recycled after being destroyed, so financially speaking, Bracada's losses were far greater than those of his opponents.
Although this loss has not yet reached the level of breaking the muscles and bones of the Bracada mage kingdom, it has also had a great impact on Bracada, in the various mines, the goblin miners have to be forced to work longer, more and more various resources are continuously sent to various factories, and then under the overtime work of goblin craftsmen and magicians, new magical creatures are made and replenished into the army, and of course, for these expenses, taxes are also raised.
In other parts of the continent, the situation was not much better, and the situation continued to be exhausted by the situation of the Erathian Empire, which was also not optimistic, and there were more and more voices of dissatisfaction with the new regime.
Not to mention the elven kingdom that is troubled internally and externally, even the traditional festival of the elves, the annual spring celebration, was held for the first time in an unprecedented way and ended hastily.
The inhabitants of the Tetalia Swamp continue to languish under the iron hooves of the undead The arrival of spring has not improved their condition, and the undead creatures do not care about the change of seasons, because their lives are too long, time does not mean much to them, and the number of self-aware individuals among them is too small, so they just faithfully carry out the orders of the necromancers and continue to run rampant in the swamp.
As for the people in the areas controlled by the Farouk army, life is even worse, the foundation of the Farouk army is too thin, in the rotation of the army of the elf kingdom and the emperor, even with the support of the blade of doom, they have begun to slowly show their defeat, and Farouk's arrogance and eagerness for quick success have made the people in these areas have not had time to appreciate the benefits of racial equality, they have already tasted the bitter fruits of the war, and people are slowly losing confidence in the future. However, for the areas under the control of the Hammondale Racial Alliance, the situation is completely opposite to the above, and for the Alliance, this spring is too beautiful.
Under the impetus of various policies to encourage production, with the arrival of spring, large-scale production activities were in full swing in all parts of the Union, and the fields that had been barren because of the war were once again reclaimed by the people, and the seeds of various crops full of hope were carefully planted, and the fields were full of laughter and laughter.
At the same time, under the official operation of the alliance, the overhaul road campaign covering the entire territory of Negan has officially begun, Chen Jian plans to improve the transportation of Negan, good transportation can not only make the movement of the army between various places more rapid and convenient for the people to travel, buy people's hearts, but also promote the development of commerce in various places, this kind of matter related to his own money bag, Chen Jian attaches great importance to it.
In addition, Chen Jian also drew up a military operation aimed at eliminating those old bandits who were entrenched in various places, and these bandits blocked the roads and robbed homes and houses, seriously affecting the transportation and public order in various places.
However, Chen Jian obviously overestimated these bandits, except for a very small number of extremely vicious and vicious people, most of the bandits faced the crusade of the emperor's ** team, either collapsed without a fight, or took the initiative to surrender, he wanted to use this to let the army practice the purpose of the purpose is simply not able to achieve, but it is a fact that the law and order in various places has been greatly improved because of this.
Seeing that the internal situation is very good, and the external situation gives him an opportunity to take advantage of, Chen Xian is naturally in a good mood, and he is smiling every day.
At this time, according to Tanan's instructions, the young savage Wozzak, who was escorting his adoptive mother and younger brother with some fairy dragons, finally arrived at Negan after a long journey.
Compared with Tanan, Tizak's sense of direction is undoubtedly much better, so the time he takes to pass through the undersea pass is far less than that of Tanan, and the company of more than a dozen fairy dragons makes this journey even more thrilling.
According to Tanan's confession, Wozzak did not run around by himself, and after passing through the undersea tunnel, he found that this tunnel was now controlled by the Alliance Army, and Wozzak immediately came to the door, reported his identity to the Alliance Army, and asked to see Chen Jian.
The fairy dragon that appeared with Tizak made the alliance army guarding the underground tunnel dare not slack off, and soon, the news about Tanan's adopted son visiting with a group of fairy dragons reached Chen Jian's ears, and at the same time, a handwritten letter from Tanan was also sent to Chen Jian along with this news.
