Chapter 1O8 The battle for supremacy begins

The military strength of the major forces in the land of bones is more than one million together, because the regular army cannot be directly stationed, so although these stragglers are numerous, they are very poorly equipped, and in the face of the pursuit and slaughter of the Germain army, it can be said that they have lost their armor and abandoned their armor like lost dogs.

In stark contrast, Germain's army was reasonably equipped with infantry, cavalry, and logistics, and was well prepared for war, and its weapons and equipment were mainly provided by the Duchy of Locke, so its combat effectiveness was extremely strong.

Germain made full use of the time difference before the intervention of other forces, and in just 3 months, swept through the northern 3 million square kilometers of the Buried Bones, leaving only the organization of the Montor Empire and the local forces of the Buried Bones.

After Germain occupied these places, he quickly established a theocratic tribal kingdom.

After the founding of the state, Germain imposed brutal rule on the tribal kingdom, slaughtering cities at every turn, imposing high taxes and high-pressure rule, and expelling nearly 10 million people in the northern part of the entire burial land.

To make matters worse, Germain's army had already encircled the remaining 1 million troops, and total annihilation was within reach.

Faced with such a situation, the Monto Empire reacted extremely quickly, through the efforts of the third prince of the Monto Empire, Mad Dog Doug.

Within 10 days, he successfully persuaded the Kingdom of Jimera and the Alliance of the Gods to send troops, and then he took great pains to raise military expenses, transshipment, supplies, ammunition, etc., and then the next step was to prepare to send troops.

Twenty days later, in Fort Froerde, an important town in the northeastern part of the Monto Empire, bordering the Bones Land, the Third Prince Doug presided over a military meeting to discuss the battle plan.

At the meeting, Doug determined the strategic policy of 'going north and south, slowly advancing and fighting quickly'.

He wanted to first recover the northwest where the terrain was high but the magic crystal ore was scarce, and Germain deployed the weak northwest, and used it as a base to dive from north to south, and fight a decisive battle with Germain's main force as soon as possible, which not only solved the follow-up military supply problem, but also quickly killed the enemy on the other hand, and avoided the formation of a situation that could not be attacked for a long time.

On the 22nd, the various armies were assembled at Fort Floerde, with a total of 3 corps.

They were the 10th Royal Regiment of the Monto Empire, led by Commander De Guzman.

The Kingdom of Guimera is directly subordinate to the Third Legion, led by the Grand Prince Mandzukic.

The Alliance of the Gods, led by the archmage Alberton the Bloodline.

The combined force of the three legions was 600,000 men, led by Doug the Mad Dog.

On the 23rd, at this time, the vanguard of the coalition forces officially crossed the border of the Monte Empire and entered the western part of the burial ground.

When Germain heard the news, he defended with a total of 50,000 men in 1 division. And quickly gather all the forces and prepare to completely annihilate the 1 million troops of the original force that was encircled, because if this new force cannot be completely annihilated, then when Germain and the coalition army are decisive, they will form a reverse encirclement inside the burial place to encircle Germain's troops.

On the 24th, in the Almata Massacre City, there is a very inconspicuous brown small building, which stands very inconspicuously in a corner of the Almata Massacre City, the small building has a wooden structure, octagonal and seven floors, in the shape of a pavilion, and the building is distinctive.

However, the internal side walls are indeed made of iron-colored bricks, and the internal space is well-laid out and rigorously structured, which can be called copper and iron casting.

This is the headquarters of the famous killer mercenary group, Black Lightning.

Founded 1700 years ago, Black Lightning began as a mysterious community of top killers, known as the Hermitage.

Originally, they were a mysterious being known for specializing in sniping powerful people, but as the scale of the Baikalmo War increased, they received more and more attention, and in every war, they can be seen everywhere, employed by individuals or countries.

Because of this, they began to become their own army, and the mercenaries were indeed well paid, and after a long run-in, they suffered less losses on the battlefield, and it was precisely because of this that in order to minimize the losses, countries often asked mercenaries to perform tasks, and the name was changed from the monastic to the black lightning.

Compared to the number of other mercenary organizations, the tens of thousands of people in Black Lightning are a bit small.

But even so, it did not affect their combat strength and fame in the slightest, and each member of the regiment was formed after thousands of selections, and they were good at carrying out tasks such as kidnapping and assassination, and it was precisely because of this that they left a mysterious and powerful impression on their employers.

More than 1,000 years ago, in the battle for the founding of the Monto Empire, none of the last 2,000 members of Black Lightning fled or retreated in the face of the attack of more than 50,000 people of the Monto Empire.

Even when they knew that they would never survive, they persisted in fighting and swore to complete the mission, not only successfully helping the bloodline of the former imperial family, the Huangquan clan, to continue, but also winning the respect of the Mongol Empire, which can be described as a war to fame.

It is the spirit and temperament of Black Lightning that made them, as staunch supporters of the previous dynasty, respected by the Monto Empire and allowed to pass on the organization, but as a condition, they had to serve the Monto Empire for 1,000 years, and the number of Black Lightning could never exceed 50,000.

At this time, Tu Zheng, as the leader of this Black Lightning, was here to speak concisely to the members of the parliament.

There are two core elements.

First, it is clear that Dick and Sauron become the core members of Black Lightning, and enjoy the rights of all core members, and of course, the corresponding obligations.

Second, the promise of serving the Monto Empire for a thousand years has been fulfilled. Therefore, Tu decided that Black Lightning would once again intervene in the struggle for hegemony in the Eastern Continent, and this 'Germain Rebellion' was a good opportunity.

Therefore, he decided to have Dick and Sauron lead 5,000 warriors to form a new mercenary group to test the reaction of various forces, and to protect the interests of Black Lightning in the Buried Bones in a big way.

In fact, there is another purpose of this meeting, which is to find and train the next generation of successors!

The meeting ended quickly.

Tu Zheng put Dikla aside and said: "Another struggle for hegemony between the Monto Empire and the Principality of Locke has begun, this time it is not necessary for previous wars, this time the two countries have chosen to send proxies to fight the war in order to avoid the escalation of the war and lose too much of their respective forces.

And the success or defeat of this war is in the place where the bones are buried, that is, the supply of magic crystals, and the Principality of Locke has an advantage in supporting Germain, so we have to help the Monto Empire break their plans! ”

Sauron agreed.

Dick, on the other hand, frowned and asked, "Since the contract between Black Lightning and the Monto Empire has expired, does the war between the Monto Empire and the Duchy of Locke have anything to do with us?" ”

"Good question! The above statement is propaganda to the outside world, in fact, the Germain armed forces supported by the Duchy of Locke have usurped our magic crystal mine, and they have not given me a trace of face!

Germain saw that the forces in the Buried Bones were going to be reshuffled this time, so he dared to engage in our magic crystal mine, but I want Germain and the entire plane to know that all those who despise black lightning will have to pay the price! Tu replied through gritted teeth.

"It's not an easy job!" Dick shook his head and smiled bitterly!

"Why are you afraid?"

"That's not going to happen!"

"That's good! Don't you want to make money and join the army? I'll give you one now! ”

"Really!?"

"Seriously! But I have one condition, I will give you 5,000 troops, so that you can completely defeat the Germain forces at the same time, but also plunder at least one mine with an annual output of 1,000 magic crystals, our goal is to protect one and fight for two, this is the basic principle, and you can arrange the rest flexibly. "Tu said the task!

"Okay! No problem! ”

"Don't be too happy!"

"What do you mean?"

"Just because I give you command doesn't mean they're your people! For this, you have to figure it out for yourself! ”

"Understood!" Dick rubbed his hands together and thought: It's time to do something big!

When Dick told Sauron about the mission, Sauron felt that it was more difficult than going into the ruins of the eternal night.

"How is this possible? There are only so many people! Isn't this an egg hitting a stone? Sauron thought to himself as he heard Dick recount the task of slaughtering.

"The resources and tasks are given to us, as for how to complete it, it depends on how we deal with it!" Dick said categorically.

"Why don't you send the Legend of Black Lightning to participate in this operation!" Sauron asked.

"Now the legends sent by the Monto Empire and the Duchy of Locke are all participating in the war as commanders, so we can't break the rules either. They want to conduct a skirmish within a controllable range, so since they are not in the open and have not torn their faces now, we must also respect this rule! Also, it's not much use to send out Legends, because there are Legends on the other side! Dick replied analytically.

Sauron felt that Dick's analysis made sense: "Yes, the politics between the great powers, and the lion king's struggle for hegemony, are essentially the same.

Replace the rise and fall of the Baikalmo Empire with a rivalry between the old and new lion kings, and you will find that the truth is the same.

They all follow an ancient and constant law: the law of balance. After all, human beings are also animals, and they cannot escape the universal laws of the animal kingdom. ”
