Chapter 372: A Year of War

"Hey, Lin Wu, did you listen to me? Roy tapped with a spoon and banged on the table.

"Eh, what were you talking about just now?" Coming back from his thoughts, Lin Wu asked embarrassedly.

Roy had an expression that I knew, "I said, now that Your Majesty has blocked the trade between each city, ordinary people can't leave the city anymore. ”

Roy repeated his previous words.

"There's no way around it, it's a time of war. Lin Wu accepted it quickly.

"I don't know how long this war will last, and whether the Red Eagle Empire will survive. Roy sighed.

Lin Wu stopped talking, he could see Roy's worries, after all, Roy was a native of the Red Eagle Empire, and it would be a lie to say that he had no feelings for this country.

However, Lin Wu didn't have such a strong worry, although he had lived for many years and had a sense of belonging here, but he was more concerned about the feelings of Huangfa and Wanzong, as well as Roy, and the friends he knew, but he didn't care so much about the Red Eagle Empire itself.

In the following month, Lin Wu stayed in the imperial capital honestly and did not go anywhere.

Wanzong did not appear again in this month, and Lin Wu was probably no longer in the imperial capital, either to carry out a mission, or to be sent by His Majesty to the front line to command the battle.

War reports are constantly sent to the imperial capital from the battlefields of the four directions, and Yan Ding will pick some news to publish it so that the people below will know it, and it can be regarded as appeasing their panic and nervousness.

"It is said that it is the battlefield on the other side of the Boundary Mountain Range, and Marshal Yan Yu has led his troops to gain the upper hand and defeat the army of the Desert Empire. Roy looked at the newspaper in his hand and concluded.

"What do you think? Roy looked at Lin Wu.

Lin Wu lay on the floor with his hands behind his head, "Since the news came from the palace, even if it is to appease the civilians, His Majesty will not spread false news, it shouldn't be wrong, it's just ......"

"Just what?" Roy asked when he saw that Lin Wu hadn't finished speaking.

"It's just that we don't know how much bad news there is. Lin Wu shook his head and said.

In this regard, Roy also knows a lot of confidential information, and His Majesty will not let ordinary people know about it, otherwise it will only cause unnecessary panic.

"If only I could go to the front and make a contribution. Roy let out a sigh, he was genuinely worried about the future of the country.

And the same is true for most ordinary people living in the Red Eagle Empire, no one wants to be a slave to the country.

If the Red Eagle is defeated, only the fugitive to a foreign country awaits them, and the warriors who have a little cultivation are better, but those women, the elderly, and children will suffer, not to mention the hardships, and they may lose their lives.

Lin Wu's closed eyes opened, and he smiled at Roy, "I guess you will be able to get your wish soon." ”

Roy was stunned when he heard Lin Wu's words, "What do you mean?"

"The desert is invaded by the whole country, and it is pulled by all directions, this is a tug-of-war that affects the whole body, even if the Red Eagle Empire has been recuperating for many years, those armies will only be exhausted, as the number of troops continues to decrease, His Majesty may carry out a nationwide conscription operation to fill the vacancy in the army. Lin Wu said.

Roy fell into deep thought.

A week later, as Lin Wu said, the conscription order spread all over the country, Yan Ding personally stepped onto the podium, and a passionate speech to protect the family and defend the country spread all over the screen.

Countless warriors with cultivation have responded to the call and embarked on the front line to resist the attack of other countries.

And among these people is Roy...... and Lin Wu.

"Hey, Roy, I didn't say I was going. Lin Wu said dissatisfiedly.

"Go, Lin Wu, I'm sure that all the yellow-haired people don't want to be without a familiar country after they are resurrected. Roy has been persuading Lin Wu for the past few days, and he will move out of Huang Fa as a rhetoric at every turn.

He knew very well how terrifying Lin Wu's strength was now, and it could be said that he was comparable to the three generalissimos of the empire, and it was not an exaggeration to even surpass it.

In the civil strife, Lin Wuke killed the heads of the Zhang Ning family, countless elders and powerhouses, and these achievements were all wronged in terms of illustriousness.

It is no exaggeration to say that Lin Wuke has the ability to change the battlefield, which is why Roy has to pull him.

......

This war, which was openly triggered by the Desert Empire, lasted for a whole year.

In the end, the Red Eagle Empire was victorious, and the rout of the Desert Empire came to an end.

Looking back on the war situation this year, the Red Eagle Empire first quelled the civil strife that broke out in the west as quickly as possible, and dispersed nearly a million orc tribes in the north at Hayden, which had withdrawn, and completely stabilized the Great Northwest.

Subsequently, in response to the nationwide conscription, countless spontaneously formed troops of warriors poured into the two battlefields in the southeast, adding a large force of new force, so that these two precarious fronts were reinforced without being completely defeated.

When the Red Eagle Empire also poured all its strength into confronting the Desert Empire head-on, the victory and defeat were already divided.

How could the Desert Empire, which has been in a resource-scarce place all the year round, compete with the Red Eagle Empire.

Although at the most critical moment, the Desert Empire had also pushed the Red Eagle Empire into a corner, and nearly half of the cities and villages in the south were occupied by the Desert Empire.

If it weren't for the large number of teams that people had gathered on their own initiative, perhaps the Red Eagle Empire would have really been captured by the Desert Empire.

"Your Majesty, fortunately, all the invaders have fled the Empire. ”

The three marshals of Yan Yu, Hayden, and Gavin stood in the palace hall and saluted Yan Ding.

"Good, you're doing a great job. Yan Ding said again and again, although only a year has passed, the emperor seems to have a few wrinkles on his face, and he looks several years old.

This was impossible to appear in the past, and it was obvious that he was very tired in this year.

Yan Yu raised his head, his face was serious, and he said in a loud voice: "I beg Your Majesty, let me lead the troops to continue the pursuit and completely destroy the Desert Empire!"

Yan Yu was obviously not willing to let go of those fleeing intruders like this, and wanted to chase and kill them.

Yan Ding didn't agree immediately, as an emperor, he had to think more.

The Desert Empire is hateful, but it is irrational to send troops to pursue it at this time.

Although the land was defended, the Red Eagle itself was already scarred and suffered heavy losses.

Whether it is the military force, the economy, or the lost territory that has been recovered, it needs to be replanned and rebuilt.

Yan Ding had to admit that after this battle, they were also greatly injured.

At this time, we must go all out to heal and strive for stability, if we rush to send troops again, Yan Ding is afraid that it will cause trouble, and then there will be no chance to recuperate.

"Your Majesty, why don't you let me first inquire about the whereabouts of those defeated remnants of the Great Desert Empire, as long as we don't delay in hitting with one hit, we can quickly eliminate these troubles without delaying the rectification of the country. ”

At this time, Wanzong also saw Yan Ding's hesitation, and he was also unwilling.
