In the first few hundred years after the New Era, the human living area did not intersect with the living area of the brute beasts, and they did not know each other's existence. In the past two hundred years, the territory of humans has expanded dramatically, and it is only after they have come into contact with the brutes.

Human beings uphold the principle of "if they are not of our race, their hearts must be different", unwilling to coexist with the barbarian orcs, and used the army to encircle and drive away the barbarian orcs, and drove a large number of barbarian orcs into deeper jungles, which objectively also promoted the aggregation of the barbarian orcs.

Unless the mountains are burned and the fields are cultivated, the dense jungle is not suitable for human activities at all. Therefore, after driving the barbarian orcs away from the main transportation routes, the Eastern Chu State gave up, and the military action against the barbarian orcs was mainly based on surveillance.

After all, in the current situation of endless battles between the Eastern Chu Kingdom and the Xiluo Kingdom, the barbarian orcs are only suffering from scabies, and the Xiluo Kingdom is the number one mortal enemy.

As long as the barbarian orcs do not take the initiative to attack, the Eastern Chu State is also unwilling (in fact, it is more because they don't want to bear it, completely wipe out the barbarian orcs, and the serious losses brought by it), and kill all the barbarian orcs.

Similarly, there are also a large number of brutes in the kingdom of Cilo. This is also the policy they have adopted. As a result, humans and brutes have formed this complex situation of you and me, and I have you.

Wang Xiaotian: The five steam-powered cars they rode in were all military products. The appearance is rough and solid, in order to adapt to the complex terrain, three groups of triangular tracks, double piston work, connecting rod transmission, simple and easy to maintain.

The carriage is semi-armored, with all-steel underneath, with shooting holes and protective fences on top, covered with steel mesh, and two in one for lighting and breathability.

After the new era, the sophisticated internal combustion engine and EFI technology have all been lost with the destruction of large-scale industrial bases. The equipment used to produce these delicate products was also destroyed by the war, and few remains.

Therefore, high-precision industrial products have become a luxury that only a few top aristocrats can enjoy, and they no longer have versatility. Only the old and bulky steam equipment, because of its simple structure, powerful functions, and not dependent on electronic control, was revived again.

Originally, in the old era, countries built a lot of civilization shelters, and preserved a lot of scientific and technological knowledge. After the new era, humanity could have relearned this knowledge, restored the original technology tree, and continued to develop.

However, the high-level leaders of Eastern Chu and Xiluo have reflected on the highly developed artificial intelligence, automatic control and electronic products in the old era, believing that they are the ones who brought fatal disasters to mankind in the old era.

Because, in a highly automated environment, even a three-year-old child can launch a nuclear bomb that destroys a city at the touch of a button.

But as the perpetrator, he may not have known, or even never imagined, the terrible consequences of pressing the button!

Countless historical lessons show that only those who are far away from the front line of war, and have not experienced cruel hand-to-hand combat, will ignore the series of bloody battle damage figures on the war report, and calmly make decisions one by one, cold-blooded, cruel, and without remembering the price, even if the blood is flowing like a river!

Those who are really killed from the sea of corpses and blood can realize the preciousness of life from the depths of their souls, so as to avoid excessive bloodshed and sacrifice as much as possible.

The top leaders of both countries believe that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and even if it is to destroy the world, it must be done by the strong who have this ability, and cannot be handed over to the weak who are powerless.

Because of the weak, it is easier to make extreme choices.

If the decision-makers on both sides of the war at the end of the old era were replaced by the current Eastern Chu and Xiluo countries, those who were in high positions, the Grand Duke and the eighth-level cultivators, that war would not have developed to such a cruel and violent point at all! It would not have triggered a big explosion in the new era.

The war between the two countries, which has lasted for hundreds of years, has also fully proved this point, and both sides have tacitly controlled the scale and intensity of the war within a certain range. Because everyone knows very well that neither of them has the strength to inflict a devastating blow on the enemy country.

Only in a long, continuous war of attrition can you gradually accumulate superiority. Any adventure may be lost, and the advantages that have been accumulated over hundreds of years have been lost.

After learning the hard way, both sides promulgated laws almost simultaneously, prohibiting any institutions, organizations and individuals from researching electrical energy, electronic products and artificial intelligence. Kill when you find it, so as to completely stifle it, automatic control, electronics, and artificial intelligence, the possibility of recovery. Historically known as the "Power Ban Act".

--------------- dividing line-------------------------

On each steam-powered car, there were seven warriors. At the top of the nose, one person controls a heavy machine gun, and the other is responsible for feeding ammunition. The remaining five people were divided into two sides of the carriage, each armed and on guard. In the middle of the carriage, there are all kinds of substances and passengers.

Meng Kan took Wang Xiaotian in the second car. Jerry Young in the third car. Luke Chang was in the fourth car. This arrangement is to prevent them from colluding together.

Out of Jinou City, all the way to the southeast, the greenery is getting thicker. Near Jinou City, it's just a little bit of green. Salix and Populus euphratica are one by one, clusters, clusters, and clusters, separated by dozens of meters from each other, stubborn and stubborn, keeping a distance, never connected, like a scar on the head of a leprosy.

As the distance from Jinou City became farther and farther away, the green changed from one by one, one by one, one by one, to rows, patches, and ditches. A hundred miles further on, countless shrubs, trees, and vines that cannot be named are crisscrossed and scattered, colluding with each other, forming a vast sea of green.

This post road, which is not wide, seems to be deeply embedded in a fold of meat on the belly of the fat boy. It seems that it may be overwhelmed by the fat on both sides at any time, but it is tenacious.

Entering the jungle, a platoon of special services, began to stand by. Everywhere you look, birds of prey hovering in the clouds in the sky, and even pythons hiding in the bushes, the jungle is full of threats.

No one knew if a few hungry beasts would suddenly pounce out of the bushes just a few meters away from the vehicle, or a few carnivorous eagles and eagles from the clouds in the sky.

What's even more terrifying is that the black cloud-like poisonous insect swarm is overwhelming. First- and second-level cultivators, if they don't wear special protective clothing, will be poisoned to death in less than ten minutes.

During the two days of entering the forest, the convoy encountered three tigers and two eagles.

Of course, in front of the heavily armed and highly guarded convoy, these beasts of prey and birds of prey have become a meal for the warriors at night.

The roads in the forest are even more rugged, and the daily journey is only two or three hundred kilometers. This speed is really not fast, even a fifth-level cultivator, fully armed, can't compare to the speed of a long-distance attack.

However, this is the speed of the army, a normal march. The members of the special service team, the lowest of which is also the third-level Force (all officers in the general establishment of the border guards), and carry a large number of machine guns, assault rifles and other weapons and supporting ammunition, as well as a large number of supplies and baggage, such as tents, food, bedding, drinking water, etc., the speed is definitely not fast.

At first, Wang Xiaotian was still a little interested in unfamiliar things, touching this in the carriage, tinkering with that, and looking at the scenery outside.

But after a long time, Wang Xiaotian felt tired. So, he simply meditated and cultivated, doing nothing but eating and sleeping. This determination amazed the veterans of the accompanying special service team.

Rao is so, he has just finished, and the Force is running for a week. This speed is no longer considered turtle speed, but a snail crawling.

On the third day of entering the forest, the movement in the depths of the dense forest grew louder and louder. According to experienced special service members, in addition to the movement of the beasts, some abnormal noises are clearly signals that the brute scouts are in contact with each other. It's just that humans have limited contact with the brutes and can't figure out what it means.

In fact, there is no need to figure out the specific meaning of these abnormal noises, everyone can guess it, the brute orcs must have seen that their team is huge, they know that they are invincible, and after contacting each other, some of the brute orcs stay to watch, and the others go to find reinforcements.

Although the wisdom of the brute beasts is not as high as that of humans, they are very skillful in using this simple tactic.

As a result, the spirit of the group became even more nervous.

The period from the time you realize that a battle is about to take place to the time when it breaks out is the most stressful and mentally stressful time.

It is said that the members of the special service team are all experienced veterans, and everyone is accustomed to fighting, even if they are on high alert, they will not be like rookies, because of the high tension of the nerves, which affects the normal state.

However, Lieutenant Colonel Meng Kan found that many soldiers had become sensitive and irritable, and bloodshot lines appeared on their eyes, which did not feel good to the eye, and seemed to be ready to pounce at any time, and it was only happy to fight with the enemy.

He immediately judged that the sacrifice of the brutes had arrived nearby. This state is caused by the "berserk" spell performed by the brute orcs.

Since this skill is a large-range skill, it will also be used, and the powder made from the roots and stems of a special plant is not only difficult to control the casting range, but also the powder will drift away with the wind when there is wind.

Apparently, some of the powder with the Force attached to it drifted to the vicinity of the convoy downwind and was inhaled by the fighters before it became slightly furious.

"Prepare for battle! Meng Kan shouted.

Before he could finish speaking, a long, mournful howl came from the jungle, followed by howls, one after another in the dense forest on either side of the line.

Before the howl fell, twenty or thirty gray shadows pounced out of the jungle on both sides.

"Silver Tooth Tribe!" Seeing the brute orcs rushing over from the forest fence, Meng Kan's heart sank suddenly.
