302 Legend of Vulcan
Aoyama only smiled slightly, and then asked Blue Moon to scan the map completely and store it in Blue Moon's database.
As can be seen from the map, the territory of Brunga is the northernmost part of the Frost Continent, near the coast, and many of these territories are from the cloudy and misty areas within the territory of Burunga.
The rest of the place is a complex of mountains, hills, swamps, deserts, snowfields, plains, etc., among which Mochizuki Castle was built in a complex hilly area.
The Mochizuki Mountains are backed by the south side, the Mochizuki River is on the east, the plains are on the north, and the hills and mountains are complex to the west.
There are also several areas on the map that have been painted black, which represent the occupied areas occupied by the Demon Legions.
Most of these areas are close to the northeast, and if Mochizuki City also falls into the hands of the Demon Legion, in terms of the overall situation, the entire Bronn will be divided into two by the Demon Legion, forming a passive situation that cannot be taken into account from the beginning to the end.
This shows how significant yesterday's battle was, and it almost changed the fate of Brunga in the future.
However, on the map, Aoyama found a pattern marked with a flame symbol.
"What is this place, and why is there a flame pattern on the table?"
Qingshan couldn't help but ask curiously.
"There's the Fire Temple."
Karin explained.
Temple of Fire! Aoyama quickly remembered that in the previous introduction of the Fog Clan customs by Tong Xue, it was mentioned that the god of fire was the supreme god believed in by Bulonga, so it was no wonder that the pattern was specially marked in the place where the fire temple was built.
Looking more closely, Aoyama also found that the Fire God Temple was located in Flame City.
It is surrounded by eight cities, which are:
Sunrise City due east
Southeast Sky City
Due south of Mochizuki Castle
Southwest Tiandu City
Sunset City due west
Northwest Jinjiang City
Due north of the city of Ogur
Northeast Blackwater City
These eight cities form a very neat Bagua shape centered on the Flame City, surrounding the Flame City in the middle, forming all the territory of Brunga.
Among them, due north of Augur City, Heishui City to the north, and Sunrise City to the east of Jinjiang City in the northwest have all been painted black, indicating that these four cities have been occupied by the Demon Legion.
It can be said that half of the territory of Burunga has been taken up by the demon legions.
If even Mochizuki Castle is occupied, I'm afraid that Brunga won't even have the rear to retreat.
And it is very likely that the demon legion that suddenly attacked Mochizuki City this time turned out to be from Sunrise City, which has already been occupied.
Therefore, Qingshan's gaze naturally fell on the Heaven-Chasing City between Sky-Chasing City and Mochizuki City.
With just one glance, Qingshan could see that if he wanted to defeat the Demon Legion, he must first destroy the Demon Legion entrenched in Sunrise City.
And if you want to do this, it is impossible to do it with the current military strength of Mochizuki Castle alone.
On the map, the closest to Mochizuki Castle and Sunrise Castle is the Castle of Heaven in the southeast.
Therefore, in this large-scale battle, if Blonga wants to achieve victory, the strategic location of Sky Chase City is crucial.
"How is the situation in Sky Chasing City, can you tell me about it?"
Karin glanced at Aoyama in surprise, she didn't expect that Aoyama had already figured out the crux of the problem after only a few moments.
"Heaven Hunting City is located in the southeast of Bulonga, it is one of the nine ancestral cities, backed by the Heaven Hunting Mountain Range, facing the Heaven Hunting River, which is a dangerous terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack in a strategic position, and it is also the closest ancestral city to my Moon City, and the city lord is Haman, the father of the Hachi Corps."
Qingshan was a little curious: "In this way, the commander of the Hachi Corps should be from Heaven Chasing City." ”
Everyone naturally saw that the two of them didn't have much of a cold with each other, but fortunately, Hachi was not here at this moment.
"The Captain of the Hachi Corps and his troops were sent by the Lord of Haman City to assist us in defending the city, and now the Demon Legion has been repulsed, so the Captain of the Hachi Corps has led his troops back to Heaven Chasing City to prevent the defeated Demon Legion from making a detour to attack Heaven Hunting City!"
"I see." Only then did Aoyama wake up, no wonder he woke up and the nasty guy was gone, and he was gone.
Qingshan thought for a moment and continued, "Outside of Sunrise City in the east, do you know the distribution of forces in other parts of the Demon Legion? ”
Kanu, Karin and the others were slightly stunned, and then shook their heads helplessly.
Mo Zang sighed slightly: "This time, Alcatraz Island has sent seven major legions, each led by seven major generals, and the number of each legion is in the millions!" Since the beginning of the war, we have captured four ancestral cities, and there is no life in the places we have passed, and none of them have survived, and those who have escaped have also fled to other ancestral cities that have not yet been occupied, so now we don't know the distribution of the demon legion's forces at all! Because we have lost our eyes and ears to inquire and deliver news! ”
"Without reliable intelligence, we can't make targeted deployments at all." Qingshan shook his head slightly.
"There's no way around it." At this time, Ka Meng, who had never spoken, said with a solemn expression: "In the past, we have never experienced such a tragic large-scale war, the major ancestral cities are not well prepared, plus the methods of the demon army are really vicious, except for the abducted strong men, the rest of the people are brutally killed, leaving no living mouth, the purpose is to cut off my Bulonga's ears and eyes, and the occupied area is also full of ground scouts, the sky blood harrier is on guard, as long as the scouts we send are close, they will be discovered, It is simply impossible to detect the deployment of their forces! ”
"Genocide, intelligence blockade." Qingshan couldn't help but have a headache and said, "This demon army is really ruthless enough. ”
Judging from the information obtained so far, in terms of overall strategy, Brunga has been completely suppressed by Alcatraz, and as long as the Demon Legion continues to maintain a strong attack, it is only a matter of time before Brunga falls.
Although Mochizuki City defeated Hei Xuan's legion just yesterday, it didn't help much for the overall situation, maybe it only stopped the offensive of the demon legion a little.
According to Aoyama's analysis, it was only a matter of time before the Demon Legion's next attack on Mochizuki City would be dispatched, and at that time, it would probably be more than just the Bronze Sword Saint of the Black Xuan Ilk.
After the situation in Sky-Chasing City was basically clear, Aoyama pointed to the Flame City on the map, which was where the Fire God Temple was located.
"What's going on in Flame City right now?"
"After the fall of Augur City, the Demon Legion used it as a meeting point, and the main army has never stopped attacking Flame City." Karin continued: "The Fire God Temple in Flame City is the spiritual pillar of Brunga, so no matter what, Flame City must not be captured, so most of the Sword God powerhouses in Brunga are gathered in Flame City. ”
"In other words, Flame City is the main battlefield of this battle." Aoyama said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Karin continued: "However, the casualties in Flame City are also extremely heavy now, and now that we have repelled the Black Xuan Legion that attacked Mochizuki City, I am discussing with you whether we should send troops to aid Flame City, after all, the remnants of the Black Xuan Legion that we repelled this time are very likely to meet, and the regular troops attacking Flame City will have at least 400,000 more siege troops out of thin air, and we are worried that Flame City may not be able to withstand their attack." ”
It's a mess
Qingshan couldn't help but have a headache, no matter how you look at the current situation, it is extremely unfavorable for Brunga.
Although Aoyama had intended to use Brunga to attack the Dark Sanctuary from the beginning, the current situation showed that Brunga had not caused much trouble to the Dark Sanctuary at all.
This is not the situation that Aoyama wants to see.
So what can be done to change the current situation in Brunga?
Not only Qingshan, but the rest of the people also fell into silence, burying their heads in thought one by one.
“QQQQ。”
But right now! A strange birdsong suddenly came!
Then Xiao Q, who had disappeared for several days, appeared out of nowhere and flew onto Aoyama's shoulder.
"Ah, this is the god of fire." Karin stared at Xiao Q on Aoyama's shoulder with a shocked and excited expression.
"What a god of fire." The rest of the crowd's faces also changed slightly.
"I said earlier that Niloanda is the lucky one favored by the god of fire, but you don't believe it." Seeing that Xiao Q suddenly appeared, Sophie Coke went bad: "Now you can see it." ”
Karin's face was blue for a while, and white for a while seemed to be nervous, remorseful, excited, and happy: "It's really the god of fire, according to legend, it will only appear when the people of the fog tribe are in danger, the god of fire, I didn't expect to appear here at this time." ”
Kanu was even more excited, stared at Xiao Q and looked at it, and then knelt down respectfully on the ground: "Bronga is saved." ”
"I see, it was the leader of the god of fire, Niloanda, who came here from thousands of miles away and saved me from the crisis in Mochizuki City." He has always looked calm, but Mo Zang, who has no waves in the ancient well, is abnormal at the moment, looking excited, and seems to have some sudden realization: "The fire god is in the world, Ze is born, as long as it is there, we in Brunga will definitely be able to defeat the demon army." ”
Mo Zang said as he knelt respectfully on the ground.
Not only him, but the rest of the people also knelt respectfully on the ground.
This strange scene made Qingshan a little overwhelmed for a while.
Because Xiao Q happened to be standing on Qingshan's shoulders, and these kneeling at Xiao Q were not equivalent to bowing to themselves.
But everyone doesn't care about this, they all look solemn and have words in their mouths, which is exactly the same as when Sophie saw Xiao Q.
After a long while, Mo Zang respectfully buckled his head before standing up, and the others did the same.
"It's just an ordinary bird, why are you so sure it's the god of fire?" Aoyama finally couldn't help but ask again.
In fact, he had asked Sophie the same question, but Sophie's certainly did not convince Aoyama.
Mo Zang sighed slightly and then took a deep breath, as if he was trying to become as calm as possible, before he slowly spoke: "The existence of the god of fire is not a legend, it is clearly recorded in my Brunga literature!" ”
"Written records." Aoyama wondered, "What kind of story is that?" ”
"Niloanda wants to hear it, so I'll tell you about it." Mozang then used his deep voice to tell this ancient story that has been passed down from generation to generation in Burunca.
"In ancient times, the ancestors of Brunga, who came all the way from the heavenly winds, got lost in the northern forests of the Cloud Realm.
Where the ancestors rescued a wounded bird, it had golden red feathers and burned like a fire.
Soon after, the ancestors were attacked by fierce beasts and demons, and they were in danger.
At this moment, the fiery red bird suddenly turned into a giant bird burning with raging flames, and with its scorching flames, it burned the demons that attacked the ancestors, and at the same time burned a large area of the forest. In the midst of the raging flames, the firebird disappeared without a trace, and no one knew where it went.
In this ruin, the ancestors built a city where they lived, and the wandering ancestors finally had a place to live and settled here.
Because the city was built because the burning flames burned the forest, the ancestors named the city the city of flames, and in honor of the disappeared firebird, the ancestors worshipped it as the god of fire and built a huge temple of fire for it, which was worshipped for generations.
Perhaps it was the devout worship and worship of the ancestors of Brunga that moved the god of fire. Whenever the people of Brunga were in danger, the god of fire would appear and consume all demons with his golden flame that could burn everything. Mo Zang said this, looked at Xiao Q on Qingshan's shoulder, and continued: "This text is recorded on the stone tablet of the Fire God Temple in Flame City, and the stone tablet can also be engraved with the portrait of the God of Fire, there are two portraits, one is the image of a huge firebird, and the other is exactly the same as the Laughing God of Fire standing on your shoulder, so we can recognize it at a glance." ”
"Good boy, is it really the god of fire?" Aoyama carefully grabbed Xiao Q from his shoulder and held it in his hand to look at it carefully.
saw that Xiao Q also tilted his head and stared at the small fiery red eyes, staring at Qingshan with a triumphant look.
Then he kissed Qingshan's nose with his sharp little mouth, which looked extremely intimate.
This strange scene amazed everyone in the camp even more, and the eyes looking at Qingshan obviously changed to a look of respect and worship.
"I think you must have been chosen by the Vulcan, otherwise the Vulcan would not be so close to you." Mo Zang seemed to be a little excited and a little envious.
"Oracle, what's that?" Aoyama was stunned.
"The ancient text records that the god of fire will only show its supernatural powers when necessary, and in general, it will only appear in its current form, and the god of fire needs to be taken care of at this time, so it will select a person as its owner, and in the ancient text, the owner who can take care of the god of fire is called a divine messenger." Mo Zang said respectfully, "There is no doubt that you are the owner chosen by the Fire God this time. ”
"That's fine."
Qingshan couldn't cry or laugh a little, he couldn't see that this little guy still had the potential to be a magic stick, so Qingshan carefully put Xiao Q back on his shoulder.
"Is there any difference between an oracle and an ordinary person?"
In fact, what Aoyama wanted to ask was what would be the benefit of becoming an oracle.
"Become an oracle and be blessed by the god of fire for life." Mo Zang said respectfully.
"That is, it protects me." Aoyama was stunned.
"Yes, if the life of the oracle is in danger, the god of fire will show his powers and protect the oracle." Karin also said with envy: "If only I could become a divine envoy." ”
Qingshan has completely convinced these people.
Although I don't know how capable Xiao Q is, it is clear that the appearance of Xiao Q makes everyone seem to see the hope of victory.
It seems that even if this little guy is not very strong, he can at least become a qualified mascot.
Perhaps it was the appearance of Xiao Q that made everyone's mood change significantly, and their thinking was much broader.
Everyone gathered in front of the map again, but there was no longer any worry or trepidation before, and everyone's eyes swelled with the light of victory.
The young female city lord of Karin was even more confident and laughed: "I have decided to send reinforcements to Flame City to assist Flame City and the main force of the Demon Legion in a battle to the death!" ”
Speaking of this, Karin looked at Kanu and continued: "But we can't send all the defenders to reinforce them, so we must leave half of the garrison troops to guard Mochizuki City, and after I leave, Kanu will temporarily take the position of city lord." ”
Kanu's face changed slightly: "The position of the city lord is not trivial, how can you say that you can change it!" It's better for me and Niloanda to lead the team to reinforce Flame City, and you and the Wise Man of Mozang will stay in Moon City! ”
Karin shook her head and said, "It's decided, I have to go to Flame City, no matter what, when it comes to the ability to defend the city, uncle, you are much better than me, this arrangement is the most suitable." ”
Karin's tone was categorical, with an irresistible majesty.
No one in the Great Tent raised any objections.
At this point, the next course of action has been decided.
