Chapter 119: Prehistoric Divine Dragon
In the fourth year of the Emperor's calendar, the situation on the continent of Shusyari has undergone earth-shaking changes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info First of all, in the spring, the paladins carried out a large-scale sweep of several granaries around Tallinn Fort, and rescued more than thousands of civilians in total. When the nation of the sun was finally forced to stop the war on the Western Front, a squadron of five thousand soldiers was dispatched to launch a surprise attack on the paladin's camp. Both sides suffered losses in this battle, and the paladin's operations were aborted.
At the end of spring, special forces from the Land of the Sun infiltrated the city of Budapest and carried out a sneak attack on the middle and low-ranking generals of the Oslan Empire. According to statistics, a total of 30 generals died in various sneak attacks, such as poisoning, assassination, etc. In the end, it was the paladins who stepped in to defend and patrol the city, and the work was improved. In order to cope with this elusive force, the Imperial Military Department of the Castle of Nodax hoped to enlist the assistance of the Assassins' Guild. However, since the civil strife in the Assassin Guild, most of the Assassins disappeared overnight, and no matter how much the military tried to find them, there was no clue. Of course, not everyone agreed with this approach of using assassins against assassins, and many soldiers were killed in the previous siege of the Assassins' Guild by the Praetorian Guard, and Caesar, the leader of the Praetorian Guard, was the first to stand up against it. However, this was an order issued directly by the military headquarters, and Caesar had to obey it, but the orders that were really issued to the soldiers were still carried out by him, which was an important reason why the current headquarters of the Assassin Guild could not be found for a long time.
In the summer of the same year, the Land of the Sun launched a raid on the city of Ankara. The army of the Land of the Sun traveled 200 miles in one day, and opened the gates of Ankara with the help of special forces. Prince Schwab himself led his troops to resist, but the tide turned, and after two days and two nights of fighting, Ankara was declared to have fallen. Prince Schwab retreated with the remnants of a hundred thousand troops to the city of Randall, three hundred miles away from Ankara. After the fall of Ankara, two nearby nobles sent a surrender on the same day. Tadao Kosaka, the commander of the Land of the Sun, personally went out of the city to accept their surrender. According to statistics, more than 10,000 people mutinied. The two great nobles led their own soldiers to attack several nearby minor noble territories, and a considerable number of them chose to surrender. By this time, the Kingdom of the Sun had occupied most of the eastern front of the Satya Empire, and had occupied large areas of fertile farming. The Kingdom of the Sun, which had been fighting for two years in a row, had entered a period of repair at this time, and the Satya Empire finally had time to take a breath. In his report on the recent battles of the Land of the Sun, Prince Schwab highlighted a force that he had never been in contact with before.
Scattering beans into soldiers, this kind of thing is estimated to only appear in mythological stories. But the 300,000 soldiers and civilians of the Satya Empire saw with their own eyes, and a white-clothed army summoned all kinds of strange-shaped soldiers under the city in front of everyone. These soldiers either have one eye, only one foot, or even can stick their hair out of their hair several meters away to fight enemy soldiers. According to statistics, the total number of this force is more than 100, and each person can summon an average of three to four of these soldiers. Unlike summoning magic, this type of soldier is more powerful and does not disappear when injured like a summon. Each summoned soldier is like a living being, and blood of various colors will flow from the sword on the body. A considerable number of Satya soldiers were killed by the enemy in shock.
In the fall, the Paladin, who was on the front lines preparing to launch several more sneak attacks before winter, received an urgent letter of eight hundred miles from the capital of the Holy See. The content of the letter is very simple, with only a few numbers: The bishop has rebelled!
Receiving the letter, Abby knocked on the door of the cardinal chamber overnight, and after a whole night of negotiations, finally chose to evacuate the city of Budapest. All paladins travel light and return to the Vatican as fast as possible. This incident is undoubtedly a major blow to the natives of the mainland, not to mention how much loss the Paladin's powerful new force will cause to the western front of the Oslan Empire. Religiously, the Pope's position in the Holy See is untouchable, he represents God, his spokesman on earth. Moreover, it is the bishopric-level people who rebel, and no one will believe such a thing. But the Pope's own handwritten letters, as well as the jade seal of His Majesty the Pope, make people have to accept this fact. The paladins were so anxious that all paladins loyal to the Holy See could not understand what could have caused a bishop loyal to the Holy See to rebel? The paladins rode their horses day and night, marching 200 miles in one day, but even the 800 miles from the Holy See to Budapest took more than half a month to arrive. Paladins with wings on their backs will not be able to return to the Vatican anytime soon.
In the middle of autumn, two brigades of noble soldiers from the city of Lisbon headed by Celtic headed for the front, and according to the imperial military headquarters, the war may not end in a short time. If the elite units of the Empire were at the forefront of the battle, it would be impossible to organize an effective new force to launch a counterattack in the later stages of the battle. At that time, victory is in sight and cannot be touched.
The Oslan Imperial War Department intends to take advantage of the fact that the soldiers of the Land of the Sun can no longer endure the cold wind on the continent of Theseus and launch several large-scale battles. From the beginning of the war to the present, neither the Satya nor the Oslan Empire has won a single victory, but a team of only 2,000 paladins has achieved fruitful results in half a year. This was a personal order from His Majesty the King, requiring Celtic and the Marquis of Dominica to join forces and win at least one of the table's victories before the end of the year.
In the middle of winter, Penglai Immortal Island, which had disappeared for several years, reappeared on the east coast of the empire. Unlike in the past, this time all the inhabitants of the coast spotted a huge dragon beast that covered the sky in the distance. In particular, the inhabitants of Xerding Island, which is closer to it, even claimed to have seen the gods come into the world. Rumors spread, some said that it was a huge fleet sent by the alien race to attack the eastern part of the empire, some said that it was a god who came to save the continent of Shusyari, and some even said that it was a demon who was coming to conquer the world. In short, various versions of the rumor were transmitted to the depths of the continent in a very short period of time. The bards, caravans, and soldiers all have their own stories with them, constantly spreading their own opinions and opinions on the continent.
The day after the appearance of Penglai Immortal Island, a 2,000-strong elven resident appeared out of thin air on the continent of Shusyari.
