Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Situation on the Main Battlefield
Main Battlefield.
The demon army is menacing, the soldiers are strong, and the equipment is excellent, which can be called the most in history, like a black dragon from the far north to the south where the human race is located.
If it weren't for the adventurer's guild to get the news in advance, this time it would have been a heavy loss, except for the high-level combat power that the demon clan had not sent, almost half of the country's strength, although it was a routine battle, but it was obviously a big plot.
Of course, after the preparation, it is a different situation.
First of all, the spies sent by the demons to the royal city to create chaos were exterminated in advance, and the nobles and high-level adventurers already knew the truth, plus the content of the secret letter of the demons, this time the strategic deployment was roughly grasped, and various preparations for the battle were carried out in advance.
In this way, the initiative of this war launched by the demons is in the hands of the human race, so when the demon army appeared on the border, the alliance composed of the adventurer's guild and the nobles began to mobilize almost at the same time, and the reaction was so fast that it was completely unexpected by the other party, and even when the demons were still discussing the next response to the human world, a majestic army appeared in front of them.
The current situation, in addition to the scattered demons who are still attacking the villages and towns on the border, the main army is confronting the Terran coalition army, completely stuck in a quagmire, unable to move forward at all, the originally ambitious demons do not know that this war is doomed from the beginning, and in the case of high-level combat strength, they have no chance of winning at all.
War between countries is a rather complicated matter, involving all aspects, not on the surface who has the big fist can win the war, there is a sentence called the key to determining the outcome of a war is not in the war, and outside the war, that is, in addition to the strength itself, there are some more important factors, such as the world situation.
Purely from the perspective of the pattern of this world, the human race and the demon race are the strongest, but it does not mean that the other races do not have any chances, as a neutral country of the orcs through several years of recuperation, the strength has long been not to be underestimated, if it is not for the many internal factions, it is impossible to form a strong and powerful force, with the tacit understanding between the human race and the demon race, they have long joined forces to eliminate the strong enemies outside the two first.
Regardless of morality, it is only related to the interests of the country, and there are no eternal friends and no eternal enemies in the world.
In addition to the orcs, the dwarves and elves are also a great threat, one can make a well-made weapon, the other has a strong magical talent, and either of them joining the camp of the human race or the demon race is enough to change the current world situation.
Dragons are seen as natural monsters, and a single dragon has the power to destroy a city, which can be the key to turning the tide in a war.
There are also many races dormant in the corners of the world, which may not be underestimated, but they may not be many in number, but together they are a powerful force.
Waging war is a matter of great loss in all aspects, the longer the stalemate, the greater the damage to the country, no matter what kind of mentality the demons originally came with and what kind of ambition they wanted to achieve, but seeing the strong Terran army on the opposite side, the initial plan could only fail.
To describe the situation of the demons in one word, it is two capital words - embarrassing!
Under the embarrassment, it is an embarrassment.
Of course, the war can be fought, but a war that is destined to have the best ending is a lose-lose war, no fool wants to do it, if there is, it is the melon-eating masses who simply watch the excitement without taking any responsibility, as the top of the army, you need to bear pressure from all sides, but the most important thing is to be responsible for your own soldiers, because in the face of death, everyone is equal, the demons are like this, and so are human beings.
The two armies on the border were at a stalemate, and although there were occasional skirmishes, they tacitly agreed with each other not to escalate the situation.
The truth that Xiao Jun learned from the rookie instructor Rena is more complicated than ordinary people think, the biggest difference between the war launched by the demon clan this time and the past is that all the high-level people are hidden behind the army, and the same is true on the human side, the members of the elder group are also trailing behind the coalition composed of the adventurer's guild and the nobles, once the high-level demon clan breaks the rules first, the elder group will immediately take action, in this way, the two sides will completely enter the situation of not dying.
With the current comprehensive strength of the two races, neither of them is sure to completely swallow the other side, even if they are barely defeated, they need to pay a great price, and this price is fatal, enough to make the winning side lose their vitality, and finally be taken advantage of by orcs or other races in vain.
In comparison, it is the other weak races that really want the two races to fight with the strength of the country.
The two armies are still facing each other on the border, and there are different voices in the human race, some people think that territorial sovereignty is inviolable, no matter what the consequences will be, they have to "just" go back now, while others think that the time has not yet come, not simply referring to the matter of time, but with the current national strength, it is really impossible to completely eliminate the demon race, only slowly Tuzhi, in the next time to win over other races.
As the two most powerful races in this world, once the current situation appears, it is definitely the world's attention, almost all the races have been mobilized, with all kinds of ideas, began to lobby around, and for peace to speak out, there are also want to benefit from this war, in short, as the protagonists of the human race and the demon race are the most calm, and the weak race has to worry about what will happen in the next second.
Xiao Jun and Jasmine were still stationed in this town during this time, but since the last time they eliminated more than thirty demons, they have never seen a lone demon clan, and there are adventurers on the human side, but in the end, because there is nothing to do, and the residents in the town don't seem to be very enthusiastic, it didn't take long to leave again.
If there are no special circumstances, this confrontation situation will end soon, as the defender of the human race in this war on the contrary, the demon race has to consider various problems, the most important thing is that they come from afar and lack supplies, can not last, the human side is waiting for work, probably prolonging the war for decades will not be a problem.
The exploration of the second layer of the dungeon continues, the minotaur encountered before is only one of the most ordinary, and the strength of the monster encountered later is much stronger, even if Xiao Jun can barely deal with it, but the number is too large to run away, compared to the first layer, the difficulty of the second layer is obviously much greater.
