Chapter 11: The Enemy Country's Winter Hunt

At sunset, the setting sun shines on the eastern plains, and the golden light is dazzling, quiet and peaceful.

Clage leaned against the city wall, lazily watching the sunset, thinking about how long it would be before the changing of the guard could go to the tavern in the city to drink a glass of ale.

Cragg tightened the military cotton clothes he was wearing on his body, it was really like a knife in the autumn wind!, in this weather, who ****** want to stay on the city wall where there is no place to hide!, and there is no enemy, Cragg grunted in his mouth, and then looked at his companions, they are all poor people, they still have to stay here on this windy day, how good it would be if they were generals, they could stay in the corner tower to roast the fire, and they didn't have to come out to suffer these damned sins.

He squinted his eyes, but suddenly saw that in the golden grass on the plain, a group of cavalry wearing cyan light armor appeared, the speed was very fast, like a whirlwind, swept towards the border city of Ai Tianlong, Kragg rubbed his eyes, but he was sure that he was not mistaken, it was a cavalry, and it was the green wolf rider of the Kara Empire.

Located in the center of the Eastern Plain, the border city of Aitianlong is one of the important border mirror towns bordering the Principality of Emma and the Kara Empire

But now that the wolf rider of the Kara Empire has been discovered, is there another war between the two countries, but isn't the civil strife in the Kara Empire just over, is the winter hunt going to start again?

Enemy attack, enemy attack, although Kragg was surprised why the Kara Empire would send troops to the Empire now, due to the experience of fighting with the Kara Empire in the past, he still hurriedly shouted loudly.

At this time, the officers who came out after hearing Kragg's shout were full of displeasure, don't joke about the enemy attack, it's almost winter, okay.

But when they walked to the wall and looked down, they all gasped.

They are all veterans who have been at war with the Kara Empire for many years, of course, they know that it is the green wolf rider of the Kara Empire, but it has only been a truce for a few years!, and in the past three years, because of the civil strife in the Kara Empire.

Although the two countries are also at war, it is all a small fight, and even if there is a large-scale war, the principality will send troops.

When will it be the turn of the Kara Empire to send out even the top cavalry Sky Wolf Cavalry on such a large scale, and they have ended the civil strife.

Although several officers were slack, they reacted immediately, after all, there are still wars in Ai Tianlong City, and this time they only thought that the internal strife in the Kara Empire was over, and there was no possibility of a war in the near future.

They immediately shouted to the soldiers next to them, the enemy is attacking, close the city gate quickly, and at the same time order the archers to come up, and send someone to inform the general, just say that there is a blue wolf from the Kara Empire riding to attack!.

After shouting, the officers quickly arranged, and a group of archers who ran up from under the city wall arranged the defense, while dozens of soldiers under the city pushed the noose, and quickly closed the city gate, and watched the city gate close.

Several officers breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at the green wolf riders outside the city, a young officer said strangely, what the hell is going on, the civil strife in the Kara Empire should have ended!, in addition, it is almost winter, it should not be at war, and you can finally rest and relax, but it has only been a few days.

The Kara Empire is not in a hurry to start a war, how can it still send out such a top cavalry as the Green Wolf Cavalry.

Hearing the words of the young officer, Kragg, who had been in Ai Tianlong City for more than ten years, sighed and said to the young officer, Lord Captain, you should not be from the east of the principality!

yes!, Cragg, why do you ask!, do you know anything?.

I know, in fact, the old residents and veterans in the east of this principality know, not only do they know, but they will never forget it in this life, but I didn't expect that the winter hunt that had been stopped for more than three years started again because of the end of the civil strife in the Kara Empire, I hope there will be fewer deaths this time!.

What is the winter hunt, Cragg, you can tell me clearly!.

It's normal that you've only been here for three years and don't know about it, in fact, don't look at our Emma and Kara Empire, except after the big war three years ago, it's usually just a small fight.

And it doesn't seem to be a big loss every time, but in fact, every winter in the past, our two countries would have a big battle.

Every winter, the Kara Empire launches a winter hunt for the purpose of looting. Moreover, after each major war, the losses of our Principality of Emma may reach more than 100,000 people, not to mention supplies, etc.

It's just that since three years ago, since there was a civil strife in the Kara Empire, it hasn't happened, but I didn't expect it to come again so soon

Why!, the young officer asked Kragg about it, and he didn't care about what he was inferior to.

That's because the Kara Empire is located in a bitter cold place, and the team guards I think you should know that the Kara Empire is a nomadic people, and the people live by herding, and the herding is affected by the weather, like the Kara Empire hundreds of years ago, it encountered a once-in-a-century blizzard, which made the livestock of the entire empire almost die, and the Kara Empire starved to death as many as millions.

They almost destroyed the country, so their emperor at that time, who was more than one hundred and sixty years old, Kara V ordered the whole country to launch a national war aimed at the seizure of our Principality of Emma, and the number of deaths in both countries was a million.

Since then, the Kara Empire has decided to launch a major war against our country or nearby countries every year in the future, and the time of the war was in winter, so it is called the winter hunt.

And I have been a soldier in Aitianlong City for thirteen years, and I have encountered nine winter hunts, and the last winter hunt of the Kara Empire was four years ago, and the target is the Bright Empire.

However, our country still lost nearly 200,000 people in that war. My brother and his comrades died in that war.

At this time, the green wolf riders under the city wall suddenly stopped when they were about to enter the range of the archers, and then a cyan war chess was erected, and then a wolf rider proudly stepped forward and shouted to the soldiers on the city wall, Winter hunting is coming, if you dare to resist, when the army of my Kara Empire arrives, there will be no grass left on the day of the city break.

On the day the city was broken, there was not an inch of grass left, hehe, the Kara Empire is still so self-conscious, you can rest assured!, the winter hunt has happened hundreds of times in the past few hundred years, and the principality has long been prepared, and the Kara Empire has only ended the civil strife.

So the scale and scope of this winter hunt must not be very large, then it is not a bad thing for us, although we will lose a lot of people every time we hunt, but our army will also be strong, so you just need to do what you have to do.

Seeing the general, several officers and Kragg heard the voice and hurriedly turned around and bowed to a middle-aged man.

This middle-aged man is the defender of Ai Tianlong City, Lord Marquis Banfel, Lord Banfel's family is the famous Bai Ju family in the principality, and the Marquis of Banfel is also a famous wise general in the Principality of Guang Emma.
