Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Land of Mercenaries

Peep, in the heyday of the Allison Empire, once fought the idea of the mercenary country and carried out a tentative attack. As a result, the soldiers of the Allison Empire found that on the frontal battlefield, their record was brilliant, and the mercenaries of the mercenary country did not dare to compete with them head-on, and the mercenaries were very loosely organized, and there was no way to form a group combat force. So in the first month, they occupied a large area of land and annexed almost a third of the mercenary country.

The soldiers of the Allison Empire were so excited that they wrote an oath to the king, vowing to completely occupy the mercenary country within three months, but before the oath could be sent to the desk of the Allison Empire, the soldiers found that they had been surrounded by the swamp of war.

The country of mercenaries is full of mercenaries, some from their own country and some from other places, they are often residents and mercenaries when they go out, and sometimes they knock on the door casually and find that there are several characters such as swordsmen or magisters in that family.

From the nature of the mercenaries themselves, there are various combinations, there are like-minded friends who pull up a mercenary group together, there is a family that is a mercenary group, there are neighbors who are united, and even a village is a big mercenary group, no matter which combination, the centripetal force of the mercenary group, mutual loyalty and sense of responsibility far exceed the army.

Although the large and small mercenary groups are fighting on their own, they have also brought great trouble to the Alison Empire, the logistics supply line has been repeatedly harassed, and the small-scale rangers and scouts have been repeatedly attacked, in other words, unless the soldiers of the Alison Empire are stationed in the camp, as long as some people are separated, whether it is several, a dozen or even hundreds, they may suffer a devastating attack!

When the team arrived at the scene, all they could see was the corpse of the ** person, and they went to the surrounding villages to investigate, but they couldn't find anything, and those people, or rather, people who just looked like ordinary people had a deep hostility towards the ** people of Alisen, and it was impossible to cooperate at all.

The most serious thing is the rear, in order to occupy the territory of the mercenary country faster, the army of the Allison Empire often leaves only hundreds or thousands of soldiers as a garrison after occupying an area, and the main force quickly moves forward, and in the resistance of the mercenaries, these garrisons are annihilated one after another, and the army of the Allison Empire finds that they have been deeply trapped, and there are enemies everywhere in front and back!

The soldiers of the Allison Empire can't tell which one is a good citizen and which one is the murderer of their comrades, and they can't control the situation, as for the massacre...... Slaughter is a taboo word! In human wars against other races, the slaughterer tends to become a hero, but in an internal war, the slaughterer may be spurned by all mankind. Of course, the massacre is not impossible, it mainly depends on the determination of the upper echelons of the Allison Empire!

First of all, the country of mercenaries is a country with extremely strong folk customs, and death cannot frighten them, because they usually often fight with death, and the slaughter is bound to cause more fierce revenge. Moreover, they must also be prepared to be strategically isolated, other countries of the pan-continent are likely to unite to resist the Allison Empire, and strategic materials such as metals and magic crystals will also be blocked, and it will be extremely difficult to replenish them from other countries, and their own specialties will also become unsalable, and they will be isolated and attacked politically and economically. If the feuding Maao Empire calls on other countries to jointly attack the Elison Empire under the banner of justice, then it will also be in an extremely disadvantageous situation militarily.

After weighing the situation for a long time, the upper echelons of the Allison Empire finally chose to retreat, and the tactical plan to continue the offensive in three ways was destroyed, and the three-way army gathered together to return to the Allison Empire as quickly as possible.

A few dead here, a dozen dead there, this kind of number is too small for the war, although it happens very frequently, but it seems to be completely negligible, but when they sum up the numbers, plus the losses caused by the annihilation of the garrison one after another, the upper echelons of the Allison Empire found that the number of casualties of this ** person has reached a terrifying 40,000!

At this point, the war ended with the defeat of the invaders, and no other country dared to underestimate the huge strategic resources of the mercenary country, all the people were soldiers, the mercenary country and the Tumen business alliance The two unique political institutions echo and exist on the continent, but compared with the latter, the mercenary country has 100% autonomy, but the Tumen business alliance has to rely on the snort of the Mao Empire, and the Tumen business alliance can develop to this extent to this extent, largely depends on the enlightened attitude of the monarchs of the Ma Empire. Greedy monarch, the life of the Tumen Business Alliance is not so easy.

And Blackwater City is one of the two most important cities in the country of mercenaries, and it is also one of the two major distribution centers of the Pan-Continent Magic Crystal, the magic crystal, just two words can represent a lot of things, in this magical world,

The demand and loss have reached an astronomical amount, who can control the demon and control the lifeblood of the continent! The original most powerful Alison Empire gradually fell into a trough, and was chased by the Mao Empire, which has been on the defensive, and has a decisive relationship with the mercenary country's refusal to allow the merchants of the Alisen Empire to enter, after the war of aggression, the mercenary country implemented this policy for a full hundred years, which had a huge impact on the economy of the Alison Empire, and they could only buy magic crystals at a high price from other countries or individual merchants who had a good relationship, and the losses in the past hundred years have long been incalculable, which is also one of the most typical examples of karma on the mainland。

It wasn't until a hundred years later, when a beautiful and peerless princess Allison tied the knot with the leader of a super mercenary group in the country of mercenaries, that this retaliatory policy was canceled, and the question of whether the age gap between the two sides was so large and whether it was a political marriage was no longer verifiable.

The two sons of the regiment commander died in an accident, and the two-year-old grandson also died of illness a year later, and finally the biological son of the beautiful princess inherited the position of the regiment leader.

Of course, many effects are corresponding, the monarchs of other countries on the continent have awakened from the trough of the Elison Empire to the potential threat of the mercenary country, they maintain friendly relations with the mercenary country while vigilantly observing the movements of the mercenary country, they can tolerate their lifeblood being controlled by a loose organization, but they will never allow a strong dictatorship to be born! That is a great threat to all countries!!

And the upper-level people in the country of mercenaries seem to understand this truth, the four super mercenary groups take turns to govern, each round of office is only one year, no matter which mercenary group has signs of development and growth, they will be jointly suppressed by other mercenary groups, they have the courage to infighting, the courage to fight, or they know that they must consume their strength in infighting and infighting, so as not to become public enemies!

These are all things that An Fei got from Chris and Susanna's intermittent narration, but it was better to hear than to see, and when he stepped into Blackwater City, An Fei smelled something completely different from the Mao Empire and the Tumen Business Alliance.

First of all, the walls of Blackwater City are very low, and the country of mercenaries is a country that is not defended everywhere, and it is a country that is fortified everywhere, and the city walls are not very useful. Many of the pedestrians on the street wore swordsman and magician insignia, far more than the Mao Empire, but the buildings on both sides of the street were quaint, not as tall and imposing as the buildings of the Mao Empire, nor as ornate as the Tumen Merchant Alliance.

A prostitute-like man stood on the side of the street and lifted a woman's short skirt and kneaded it vigorously on the woman's **, and the woman looked very useful, and there was a loud laugh in the tavern, which was so loud that it could deafen the ears of the pedestrians on the street, but the people of the Maao Empire and the Tumen Business Alliance could not do such a thing, and that there was a world of elegance, and here was a rough world, and the senses were very different.

Anfei found that the pedestrians on the street were not interested in other pedestrians, and whenever he found a person whose behavior was full of grotesqueness, Chris and the others had to look at it curiously for a moment, but the people in Blackwater City turned a blind eye.

In fact, Blackwater City is a relatively free city, and the mercenary guild will not interfere with personal life, unless you endanger the safety of other people, even if you take a carriage led by an elf slave girl, or simply hang the elf slave girl on the street, no one will say anything, because you are destroying your own things, but you have to pay a certain cleaning fee.

Of course, there is one more preparation, and that is the revenge of the arrogant elves!

See' The four words 'elf female slaves' think that their status is very low, which is wrong, female slaves only represent their identity when they just mixed into human society, but the identity and status of intelligent life can change with the passage of time, some people are rising higher and higher, and some people are falling lower and lower, the wife of the head of the Tiger Mercenary Group of Taao, who is now in power, used to be an elf slave girl, but she has not only long been rid of her slave status, but also has become a very influential upper-class figure, and gave birth to nine children to his husband, each of whom is a well-known and strong person。

"Anfei, if the people in Blackwater learn of the wanted warrants issued by the Philip family, will they threaten our safety?" Bravey whispered as he watched the passers-by.

"No, it won't. Suzanne whispered back, "The mercenary is not a killer, and Philip is just a great swordsman, and his influence is not so great." ”

"Let's find a place to stay first, and then rent another one or simply buy a yard. An Fei's eyes fell on the door number of a hotel.
