Volume 1: Twilight of the Moon Chapter 85: Holy War (9) Sneak Attack on Granton I
Everything seemed to have reverted to its original appearance, devastated and in ruins. The original towering city wall is now standing alone with only a few small breaks, telling the cruelty of war.
Looking into the distance, the beautiful sunrise slowly emerges, while the city is ruins and ruins. Hundreds of people have lost their homes, wives are kneeling beside their husbands and weeping bitterly, children are crying and crying for their parents, and their hands are swaying weakly under the collapsed houses, longing for the hope of life. The cry shook the sky, and the old mother fell crookedly on the threshold, looking at the dilapidated house and the dead son, crying heartbreakingly.
This human tragedy made everyone numb.
Srian was powerless to lift bricks and stones, and save one wounded after another, but what was the use? He alone could not save everyone.
In yesterday's battle, the city of Saith City was broken, the left-handed king Bastino was killed, and the Heavenly Underworld Protector suffered nearly 100,000 casualties, almost wiped out, and the current living combat power is only the 4W Green Wolf Army cavalry.
After this battle, Seth City completely lost the meaning of defending Granton.
When the Emperor of the Moon World saw this battle report, the body of the Left Rotation King had already arrived in the royal capital. There must be great joy and great sorrow in the world, and it is unacceptable for anyone to suddenly encounter the death of a loved one after experiencing the joy of victory in the Great War, and the moon is completely in a state of madness, and even dozens of holy orders have been issued to recall more than a dozen high-ranking officers of Seth City, and even Si Ruian He wanted to recall him to punish the crime, but fortunately he was stopped by the ministers.
On the other side, after getting the news of the fiasco of Saith City, Xiaoyun rushed to Saith City overnight with 100,000 green wolf troops, but what he saw was full of ruins, and the original towering and solid city wall was only half a lonely one at the moment, Xiaoyun did not stay too long, and came to the Dashuai's Mansion alone.
"What about Sriyan!"
"General............" Si Ruian really didn't have any face to see Xiaoyun at the moment, not only did he not complete the task he originally assigned, but he even failed to protect the Zuoxuan King.
"Tell me what's going on?"
"General, this is all God's curse!!" the surviving staff officer on the side shouted, "All this is God's will!"
"Pull me down!!"
"General, it's magic! It's high-level water magic I've never seen before that has destroyed Seth City. ”
"How could Seth City be destroyed by a small spell?"
"That's not ordinary magic, it's something that can destroy the world!!" Srian got goosebumps all over her body at the thought of it.
"Is it Jost?"
"No, I've seen the strength of the Great Wizard, but it's far beyond her capabilities. ”
"Then what if she has assistance, or maybe two great magic guides or even three great magic guides join forces?" Si Ruian didn't think about this possibility, but the reality is that the twelve great magic guides of the mainland are all higher than the sky, and they absolutely disdain to join forces with other great magic guides, which will damage their own worth.
"This level of magic is not just a matter of finding a few magic apprentices, at least intermediate or above, and there are at least hundreds of people. ”
"The auxiliary mages of each country are the focus of the Hongling envoys, and such a large-scale movement should be shown by intelligence, but at present, the Hongling envoys have not moved, which may indicate that these auxiliary mages are not from Henassas or other empires. ”
"Where would that come from?" "Since the major empires have been excluded, it is even more impossible for the remaining small federal states to have such a powerful power, so who else will there be?"
"Isn't there a place where auxiliary mages are abundant?" Xiaoyun gestured eastward.
"Could it be...... Church .................. "Srian was amazed at Howling Cloud's imagination.
"I wish I had been overly distracted. ”

This is the center line of the continent, an impenetrable barrier between the eastern and western continents, where freezing, cold, and blizzard are the themes. On this endless ice field, the snow covers any ray of sunlight, and there are thousands of miles of glaciers under your feet, and goose feathers and snow in front of you.
In the snow, a white-clothed army is slowly moving forward, the perennial heavy snowfall makes it difficult for them to walk an inch, and they can only wait until the evening to walk for a few hours every day, the number of people is not large, but it is very conspicuous in this ice and snow.
The leader is a middle-aged man wearing short black armor, with a black mask on his face and a short blade around his waist. Beside him was a tall man in light armor, who looked like a military officer, and the gold token around his waist indicated that he was the leader of the squad.
"That's it for today, and you'll be able to march at full speed tomorrow. The middle-aged man looked into the distance and said.
"Okay. ”
Looking into the distance, through the heavy wind and snow, the faint light gradually appeared, and it turned out to be a small town.

Although Granton issued a declaration of war, it seems that the entire Nabis continent has not been affected by any fluctuations, except for Granton, the other countries are living their own lives and living as usual, even the Bellevin Alliance adjacent to Granton is not unusual, it has not been affected by the war at all, and the people continue to live as usual, at most they have more to talk about.
The Union of B&Rhein, a small alliance of eight small states, of course, was only in wartime, but in non-war times or in separate ways, without interfering with each other.
No one would have imagined that one day war would befall this land, and on this autumn evening, a dusty army appeared in front of the small countries of the alliance like a ghost, showing its murderous fangs.
No, this is not the purpose of the B&I Union, all interests come first.
The cunning B&Le Infederate keenly sniffed out the true intentions of this force, and cooperation was the best choice, so as to ensure their vested interests.
"Say, how to cooperate. ”
"I know you have a big plan, but with our help, it's a foolproof plan. The leader of one of the alliances said eloquently, "Our Belle is adjacent to Granton, only separated by the Yuhua River, and we usually trade with Granton by water, and we all know the guards of the two large ports in Granton, usually due to frequent entry and exit, they will not check the merchant ships of our alliance too much, as long as you disguise yourself and blend into our caravan, we will have a way to send you to Granton without us knowing." ”
"Are you smuggling tens of thousands of people at once?" questioned the tall leader.
"I'm afraid you don't know anything about the trade between us, there are hundreds of merchant ships going to and from Granton every day, and even if each merchant ship smuggles 100 people, that's tens of thousands, and it can send you to Granton in a day. ”
"Good. ”
"Of course, in order to show our sincerity, we will send the ace troops to support you after you enter Granton. ”
"Ace troops?" the tall leader was a little disdainful, the miscellaneous soldiers of the small country were not worthy of being our backup.
"Iron Curtain Legion!" said the leader of the Alliance.
"Deal. The middle-aged man in black who had been silent for a long time spoke.
※※※※※※※※※※※※
After a few days, the city of Seth gradually regained a glimmer of life after the war, and in the temporary tent, Xiaoyun, Srian, and Darsil were talking in secret.
"General, I have a hunch that something big will happen. ”
"Tell me about it. ”
"You see that there has been no movement on the Henassas side in the past few days, obviously the first few days were their best time to attack the city, but they did not send troops, which has to make people suspicious. ”
"I've been thinking about this for a long time, and I've asked Darth to check it out, but so far there is no news at all. ”
"So what are we going to do, sit idly by?"
"At present, our forces are absolutely unable to compete with Henassas, not to mention that they also have a mysterious group of auxiliary mages. ”
"We can only wait and see what happens. ”
"Nothing will happen to Mossburg. ”
"The main force of Niltz has been dispersed, and Gesell's Xuanji Army has been stationed in Mossburg, so there should be no big problem. ”
"I think it's better to move the people to the royal capital first, after all, Saith City is by no means a place to live for a long time. Dassel said.
"It makes sense, you are solely responsible for this matter, and by the way, go back to see how your majesty is doing. ”
In the distance of Saith City, a teenager stared blankly, the ruin in front of him made the boy blame himself, if he could have arrived earlier, this might have stopped this.
The girl on the side was also shocked when she saw this scene, in her impression, fighting is not to fight for food and territory, and she will definitely not be so ruthless, even in the most powerful western part of the people, there will not be any beast tribe so cruel.
Sure enough, what my father said was right, the cruelty of human beings far exceeded that of the orcs, and they must stay away from humans.
"Let's go, take you to my father. ”
After passing through the dilapidated city gates, Yi Tian finally set foot on the land of Granton again after three years, all of which made Yi Tian excited.
When the sentry came to report Yitian's return, Xiaoyun could hardly believe his ears, did the son who had worried him really come back?
When I saw my father again, it had been more than three years, and looking at my father who was still trembling when he walked, Yi Tianzhen's heart was broken.
"Father!" The bitterness that had been suppressed in my heart for many years was vented at this moment, and countless thoughts turned into these two heavy words.
"Son, you're finally back!" Xiaoyun was also in tears, he really thought that Yi Tian really couldn't come back, for three years, he blamed himself all the time, why didn't he stop all this back then, he was completely an incompetent and selfish father.
The feelings in the world are complicated, and only family affection is immutable.
