Chapter 165: A Feast for the Betrayal

The vast ice field is full of depressed scenery, and when the winter sun rises, the black horizon is a gathering of war horses and warriors.

"The orcs are coming!"

With a simple notice, the first wave of catapults and strategic magic began to fulfill their battlefield duties, and huge rubble rushed into the sky with a terrible sound of wind, killing more than a dozen lives each time it fell.

Originally, Red Maple City was just an ordinary town with double walls inside and outside, but after the investment of various countries regardless of the cost, it has become a fortified city with four layers of city walls, and there are countless types of city defense equipment.

Earth mages may not have as powerful and flashy offensive magic as other elemental mages, but when it comes to civil engineering and engineering work, they have advantages that other elemental mages can't match.

High walls were erected in an instant, and the moat was forcibly widened by seven or eight meters with the sound of "turning soil into mud", and the alchemy venom flowing in it may not be very toxic, but let it in

At least the walls were more than three times as tall, and the towering walls were topped with ballistas and engineering guns, and griffon knights circled and patrolled the skies, looking for possible loopholes.

On the various platforms of the city wall, countless catapults have been erected, this kind of historical siege and defense weapons, as long as there are enough scholars and craftsmen, can exert satisfactory power, and what is the difference between the boulder falling from the sky and meteorite, anyway, a piece of death will be killed if it is smashed.

Simple, crude, effective, low cost and good results are the reasons why catapults have become necessary on the battlefield.

But this time, having just entered the range of the largest catapults, it was so far away. It is simply impossible to create a threat of a pinpoint strike. But more. But it's a deterrent.

"On the battlefield, there's no place where it's safe."

Not to be outdone, the orcs fought back, and the range of the moving catapults was limited, and the largest one barely hit the city walls, stirring up a puff of dust and rubble, but it was even more laughed at by the defenders.

Not long ago, the rubble and boulders outside the city have been cleared, and the stones that can be used are stored in the city as stone bullets. If the orcs want to find a suitable one for their own use, I am afraid that they can only transport it remotely.

At this time, at the West City Gate, the Donglan people who were assigned here as a defensive task began to prepare for war, and as the temporary leader, Renee's palms were full of sweat, this was the second time she encountered a war, but it was the first time she participated in the war as a soldier.

"Hold on, hold on, Renee. You can do it, when Brother Roland went to the battlefield, he was younger than you are now. ”

And she didn't know what to do. But when she was silently cheering up, many well-intentioned people were quietly staring at her, and some existences were constantly peeking into the mysteries of this world through her eyes-

There is a saying that good intentions do bad things, which is very common, but there is also a saying that bad intentions do good things, which is indeed rare.

"Coward" Fiemer. Cassel's surrender directly caused the kingdom of Sluwell to suffer great humiliation, and as the first descendant of Arashi to surrender (nominal), he let himself be hung on the pillar of historical shame, but he played an extremely strange and important impact on the war situation.

First of all, due to the fall of the entire kingdom and the surrender of the royal family, the titular Sluwell became a subordinate of the orc tribe overnight, and for a while, the city lords and lords of various cities and towns were at a loss, but the orc army thus bypassed the various city-states and reached the deepest Red Maple City.

"It's all already surrendered, what else to fight."

The second one has a profound impact is that the elves have declared war on the orcs.

Yes, they declared war, and that silent alliance lasted less than half a month before it turned into hostility.

This time, the elf king of the tassel kingdom did a great job, and the human bastard he chose as the fuse was a native of San Antonio, and he had the nobility of the Duchy of Kasumi, but as a matchmaker and slave trader, it was the nobleman of Sluwell, who was said to have something to do with Fimmel.

So, all of a sudden, the targets of the war were locked on the Kingdom of Sluwell and the Duchy of Kasomi, and San Antonio naturally couldn't get rid of the relationship.

As long as the war goes well, he will use this fuse to escalate all the way, constantly stir up public resentment, and let the war spread, since it is to avenge the leader of the anti-war faction, Princess Su Anna, the domestic pacifists and anti-war factions cannot say anything against it.

But if the culprit of the most culprit, Sluwell, surrendered to the orcs, and instead was protected by the orcs, should they take revenge over there?

After learning of the "death of the dove of peace", the famous general 'Black Bear' Ann Yinluo was coarse and fine, and he immediately smelled the conspiracy from Zhou, and immediately removed the bastard nobleman's family from Kasomi, tied his brother and gave it to the elf, and gave him a sincere letter of apology.

"Shocked by the tragedy, while heartbroken, I deeply regret that we will not tolerate the murderer, since he himself has died, send his brothers, wives and daughters as sacrifices to comfort the soul of Her Royal Highness Su Anna in heaven"

Well, this is indeed very unkind and shameless, but in a sense, it is indeed effective for the elves who are famous for admitting death, and the human kingdom has also figured out the temperament of these elves who eat soft and not hard, and die to save face and suffer sin.

"Who doesn't have a few unscrupulous descendants, sincerely apologize, the Principality of Kasomi has done a very good job, and if you use the wives and children of sinners as sacrifices, it is simply the same virtue as the barbarian orcs, and it is not good for the reputation of the Tassel Kingdom and the Elven Clan."

When this kind of news spread, the main battle faction of the Tassel Kingdom knew that something was wrong with the Dao.

The elven kingdom is the birthplace of the consul system and the parliamentary system, and is a symbol of equality and freedom in the eyes of the world.

In the eyes of the main messenger of the war faction, if most of the elves satisfy their desire for revenge and ask to stop the war with their "allies", then Su Anna's "sacrifice" will not be in vain. How can such an inexplicable ending be acceptable. How do they want to give an account to the elven gods who want to exacerbate the contradictions.

And the elves are very, very particular about face and name. Isn't a war without righteousness an evil invader? How can a good and peace-loving elf be an intruder of evil, we must be on the side of justice, and the target of our attack must be the heinous villain.

As a result, a conclusive information was revealed, which contained evidence of the abduction of elves in recent years, and that those elf traffickers and slave catchers actually had official backgrounds, and the culprits, or the culprits behind the scenes, were directly pointed at Sluwell and his nobles and royal family.

In fact, since the evil slave trade took place in this country. And the official actually turned a blind eye to it, when the bloody chain of interests was established, how clean was the upper echelons of this country.

Okay, the next thing is that it's all King Fimmer's fault, but to be honest, judging by the hundreds of elven dancers in his palace, it's really not to blame.

So in the eyes of the elves, they are not invading at all, they are taking revenge and presiding over justice, and the sinful kingdom of Sluwell must pay the price. Evil humans will henceforth be driven from the realm of the elves.

But now, the elves are in a little trouble. Sluwell surrendered, and the Lan people, who had never succumbed, would actually surrender? In the eyes of these longevity, this is as incredible as the elves suddenly become cheerful and generous, the dwarves become clean and tidy, and the orcs become well-read.

But Slulwell did surrender, so now it became a big question whether the elves should still take revenge.

If you don't take revenge, you can't swallow this breath, and you can't confess to some beings, but if you take revenge, is it revenge on Fimr under the rule of the orcs? Will the orcs be willing to spit out the major results they have won so hard?

"Stupid brute, hand over that Fimmel and his bloody men, we still have to talk about what you are dragging me for. Yes! ”

The elven envoy's arrogance as always, turning a negotiation that would be a failure into an absolute failure, but it was also the result that a certain elven king needed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please tell him that his will will be carried out."

Ansolo . Schusta. Adelban, this lengthy name, but it is already an abbreviation with a dozen short words omitted, his life deeds are very numerous, and there are not a few names, but there is one adjective that can describe his characteristics very well - the main god of the elves.

The gods of order are composed of a mixture of many gods, and there are only seven main god-level existences, which is enough to prove his strength, and by the way, it was he who banished Rose and led to the collective fall of the dark elves. Fall, among the targets of Heloise's vow of revenge, is also led by him.

As the main god of the elves and the patron saint of the entire elven race, how could Ansolo's will be disobeyed, so the elves directly declared war on the orcs, and they declared war on the orcs who "attempted" to shelter Fimur.

"It's worthy of an elf, this brain structure doesn't seem to have been assessed by an elf expert, I'm afraid our elf textbook will be revised again. Hmph, the more intense the fight, the better, and the best in the end. ”

While many of the military strategists of the human kingdom were stunned, they eagerly expected to see a dog-eat-dog comedy, but soon they realized that the declaration of war was just a front.

While the orcs abandoned the other towns to concentrate on the decisive battle, the elves began to take over the slaughter, of course, the elven language they were proud of did not contain such a filthy word as slaughter, they used purification.

Excessive hatred is contagious, bloodthirsty madness spreads, and soon, the trial gets out of hand, and finding evidence of a nobleman's ancestral involvement in elven slavery is enough for that family to be hanged.

"What? Grandfather used to be a mercenary? Can't you tell where he used to beg for a living? Well, I'm sorry, since you can't prove that he is innocent, you are guilty, and if he is guilty, it means that you are guilty. ”

The elven priests who served as judges also fell into an inexplicable frenzy, and in their trials full of presumption of guilt and implications, few of them escaped in their entirety, and the only advantage compared to the orcs was probably that they did not move the civilians for the time being, or should I say they did not take the initiative to move the civilians.

Moreover, how could there be no casualties in the war, in the face of their own losses, the so-called elven elegance is probably to choose a way to die for those defenders who are not too ugly.

As a result, the captured city was covered with human heads, and the civilians who survived looked at these long-eared civilians with hatred in their eyes.

"It's really a frenzied vote, I'm afraid, the elves of the Northland will never be able to return to the way they used to be, maybe, after this catastrophe, there will be no elves."

I, on the other hand, saw sorrow in the madness of the elves, and the only one who could dominate the priest's will could be the true gods, and since the true gods had no regard for face, I am afraid that they themselves had fallen into desperation and madness.

Choosing to turn his back on the gods of order as soon as possible and act as the vanguard of the divine war, in this era when vanguard and cannon fodder are almost synonymous, I am afraid that it will be the collective fall of the elven gods soon after.

"What a feast for betrayers."

Having said this, I was repeatedly checking the letter to another betrayer, and whether or not this betrayer had any intention of choosing a new position was directly related to the victory of the war.

"Dear Lady Rose, hello, I am your faithful fan Roland. Lan, you may have heard of me, I have been looking forward to your torture art for a long time, and I have been looking for a chance to consult with you (5000 words of sycophants) You have also heard about a series of things that have happened recently, and I have a small suggestion here" (to be continued......
