Chapter 119: Terran Monument
Day 7 of Week 11. Light rain! Even God is mourning for the souls of the warriors on the battlefield!
The report was sent, the battle record was brilliant, and the battle damage was huge!
Annihilated the orc armies of both sides, a total of 21,000 elite warriors, even for the behemoth of the orc empire, I am afraid it is a big blow! A large number of weapons and equipment were captured, although it was relatively rough, but a third could be singled out and equipped for the warriors, and the rest could be handed over to the migrating dwarven blacksmiths for reforging, and I believe they would like it very much.
The battle damage is not small: among Lin Tian's godsends, the losses are very small, and the attrition is only 3 silver Pegasus knights, 10 dwarf warriors and 20 wild boar cavalry. Although the loss of 3 Silver Pegasus Knights made him feel distressed, but in the war, there are no casualties?
The losses on the part of the aboriginal forces were great: a total of 20,000 soldiers of the Royal Guard Corps, 20,000 Wehrmacht troops, and 4,000 recruits were mobilized during the war; After the war, the Royal Guard Corps was reduced by nearly 1,000 personnel, the Wehrmacht was reduced by 4,000 personnel, and the new recruits were reduced by 2,000; Under Lin Tian's strong intervention, the death toll was still as high as more than 7,000. Although other kings may be overjoyed when they see this report, the battle loss between the enemy and the enemy actually appeared an astonishing 1 to 3, but Lin Tian expressed extreme dissatisfaction.
He ordered the 2,000 surviving, battle-hardened recruits to be incorporated into the Wehrmacht. At this point, not counting the military strength of the royal capital, after his current reorganization, the available strength includes 19,000 soldiers of the Royal Guard Regiment and 18,000 Wehrmacht, all of which are well-equipped veterans!
A few miles from the city, in the woods, that is, through the area where the orcs were raging, a large number of soldiers and civilians spontaneously gathered here, and the post-war commemoration and mourning activities will be held here.
The remains of nearly 7,000 warriors are buried in a centralized and neat manner on this hillside, each soldier has a home, a tombstone, some with a name and a surname, and some simply without a name. This turned the entire hillside into a large cemetery...... Not far away, in a recess, more than 10,000 orc corpses were filled into a simple mass grave and buried deeply!
"The king is coming!" Gathered in the crowd at the bottom of the slope, I don't know who shouted a word? Then one passed ten, ten passed hundred, and all eyes were focused on the new king who had just appeared on the snow-white giant wolf.
A group of soldiers of the Royal Guard made a small road for the king, leading to the top of the hillside......
Lin Tian got off the wolf's back and slowly walked in front of everyone: "Everyone is gathered here today to mourn our brave fallen soldiers, please allow me to pay tribute to you on behalf of these brave heroes!" "Bow 90 degrees! Attracted everyone to return the salute!
This legendary king, the hero of mankind, bowed humbly for 10 breaths, and the mood of the people was also heavy!
"I received a report in the morning that nearly 1,000 soldiers of the Royal Guard Regiment were killed in this battle, more than 2,000 volunteer soldiers in the city, and more than 4,000 Wehrmacht soldiers were killed. My heart aches, some of the fighters may have taken my class the other day and greeted me. Today, I can only lie here quietly! ”
"But I don't want to cry today, I want to laugh!" Everyone was shocked! Wang: What's the matter? On such an important day, how can you say that you want to laugh?
"Someone wants to ask, why do I want to laugh at my king? Isn't that blasphemous? ”
"Nope! I want to laugh! Because the burial of these heroic spirits is accompanied by 21,000 fierce orcs in the pit over there! ”
"How can mankind ever achieve such a glorious record? You say, should these heroic spirits laugh at Jiuquan? I! Their king, should he laugh for them? Big Laugh? ”
But my king! Your eyes are clearly full of tears, right......
Lin Tian walked slowly alone, this small hill is not high, and the road is not long, but everyone feels that he has walked for a long time, maybe that slightly thin body has carried too many things, right? At this moment, all people, whether soldiers or civilians, followed their king with their eyes closely, and they could feel the dense mourning and sorrow that could barely be dissolved! Lin Bing and Lin Qi's hearts were pinched, and they felt that they should be responsible for these fallen soldiers......
Coming to the top of the slope, Lin Tian turned around and raised his eyes to look around at the dense crowd below, and everyone was silent......
"I will erect a monument for them, a monument, a high monument!"
He swung his big hand forward, and then activated the Earth Magus, the ability to change the landscape...... The magic power around him surged out, blowing up all his clothes, and an earthen spire-like monument behind him slowly but resolutely rose from the ground, rising to about 15 meters before slowly taking shape. Then, facing this bare earth monument, he unleashed the Wind Blade Technique, constantly cutting precisely on it, marking a series of slashing sword carvings!
Someone recognized: "The king is writing: Mankind! Never perish! …… Yes! ”
This man was deeply shocked by the words that came out of his own mouth! It also made a fire pour out in the hearts of all the soldiers and civilians present!
After carving the inscription, Lin Tian continued to control the wind blade, made minor repairs to the entire earthen monument, made it more sharp, and accurately controlled a fire pillar technique to roast the body of the monument......
A monument with a special luster and a porcelain texture is displayed in front of everyone...... It stands like a miracle in front of everyone! All the people got down on one knee and worshipped!
This is what later generations of human bards passed down orally, a monument to the human race!
In the future, there will be more earth mages, with a pilgrim-like mood, going to the Terran Monument to mourn! Under the continuous repair and reinforcement of the earth mages of various races, even after 10,000 years, it is still as bright as new.
Every year, a large number of people come to visit and worship, and even people from other intelligent races come to worship. This is like a kind of spiritual sustenance, deeply engraved on this continent, forming a kind of spirit. It represents the words that roared in the hearts of all human beings in the darkest of times!
Mankind! Never perish!
After several years of development, this small city, which was supposed to be a remote town, has since developed into one of the most famous tourist cities on the continent, and the most wanted places for all intelligent beings to visit, ranking in the top ten......
The roads are getting wider and wider, and related industries and related cultures are formed.
Interestingly, the orc mass grave next to it has also been developed into a famous tourist attraction, and a large number of professional tour guides explain here, and even many tourists are descendants of orcs.
They will continue to tell future generations those moving stories of that era!
