Chapter 167: Escape and Pursuit
The dark night sky was completely illuminated, and hundreds of major city-states of the Northern Qian Empire were lit up, stretching for thousands of miles, and 20 million dwarves fled to the east with hatred and infinite excitement. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The terrain of the Northern Qian Kingdom is flat, mostly plains and grasslands, and the obstacles are very small, coupled with the death of the prince and the chaos in the imperial city, the soldiers who can be mobilized are in a state of confusion, and it is difficult to receive orders.
To the east of Lamb City, there are only a dozen large city-states, connected by roads, and the plains are so vast that even the hills are hard to see.
The millions of dwarves in the vicinity fled together, joining up with the dwarves of the great eastern city-states, and the ranks grew larger and larger, and almost every city-state was temporarily occupied, and the huge dwarven army rushed in and killed people on sight, without stopping.
I flew high in the air with the dwarves, and the beacon fire gradually dimmed in the second half of the night, and by the time the east showed the whiteness of the fish's belly, the first dwarves had reached the edge of the Rocky Mountains.
Of course, most of the dwarves still fled between the plains of the city-state, and I am afraid that it will take months for the last dwarves to escape into the Rocky Mountains, and most of them will be reduced to corpses.
The dwarven elders were below me, and a dozen sturdy dwarves took turns fleeing on his back, and in one night they had passed through seven city-states, with a contingent of nearly one and a half million men, slaughtering no less than two hundred thousand Terrans.
In the light of dawn, the dwarven elders entered a new city-state with a number of chieftains, and gave the order to slaughter the city.
The Terrans were powerless to resist at all, and one and a half million dwarves stretched out inside and outside the city, a wild and terrifying force.
But after a night of running wild, all the dwarves were exhausted, and they had to stop and rest.
I glanced back at the way I came, and there was no end in sight to the dense dwarves, from north to south, from east to west, horizontally and vertically, I don't know how many miles they stretched, like a huge wave rolling towards the Rocky Mountains.
However, it was still far from the Rocky Mountains, and at least a week at the pace of the dwarves. The only fortunate time is that the troops of the Northern Thousand Kingdom are not in the country, and the reserves are unable to resist such a large army of dwarves, and the dwarves go all the way to the east, which is equivalent to attacking the city territory.
I was also a little tired from the night of flying, and I teleported into the city, and immediately a terrible smell of blood came to my nose, and the streets were full of Terran corpses, and countless dwarves were still looking for the living and food with weapons.
The city had been slaughtered clean, and millennia of hatred had left the dwarves with no mercy.
As I walked, there were even dwarves who tried to hack me to death, but I teleported away. I found a high place to rest, but I heard a burst of angry scolding and quarrelling, and some dwarves were arguing.
Teleported over to see that it was a blacksmith shop, surrounded by a dozen murderous dwarves outside, and there were also two dwarves inside, blocking everyone from entering.
I glanced inside the room and saw a pair of mother and daughter with gray faces hugging each other and crying, shivering.
What are you doing? I wondered in my heart, and a dwarf with a machete scolded, "You two want to rebel, don't you? The elder ordered the slaughter of the city, and you two actually sheltered the human race?"
The two dwarves in the house begged for mercy hoarsely: "They are good people, they have never abused us, please let them go." ”
The two mothers and daughters also begged for mercy again and again, their gray and black faces were full of frightened tears, it seemed that they were still striking iron before, but the dwarves mutated, if it weren't for the two dwarf slaves to protect them, I am afraid they would have died a long time ago.
The dwarves outside were so enraged that they even tried to kill the two dwarves as well. With a wave of my hand, a strong wind swept in, and the dwarves flew a few blocks away, and the place was deserted.
The dwarfs and the mother and daughter in the house froze, and I went over and said, "Find a place to hide." ”
The two mothers and daughters reacted and hurriedly thanked them. The two dwarves also kowtowed, and ran away with the mother and daughter, not knowing where to hide.
I waited here when a large group of elite dwarven warriors rushed in, apparently informed.
I am familiar with the leader, I should have met, at this time, when he saw that it was me, he immediately slapped the dwarf next to him in the face: "This is Lord Ysera, I don't know whether to live or die!"
A group of dwarves lost their anger in an instant, and the leader of the dwarves ran over to apologize, I didn't care, and said lightly: "What about the elders?"
He hurried me to the elder, whose face grew paler and paler, as if he was about to die at any moment.
When he saw me, he waved away the rest of the dwarves, and said hoarsely: "Lord Isera, it's already dawn, and the Northern Kingdom must have reacted, maybe there are already cavalry catching up behind." We have warriors behind us to resist, but I am afraid of the strong men of the human race, even if it is only three or two strong men, it will be enough for us to suffer heavy losses, and I am afraid that the people of the tribe near the west will not be able to escape to this side. ”
He is right, the strong of the human race is an anti-heaven existence for the dwarves, these vanguard troops are close to the east, they can quickly escape into the Rocky Mountains, but the dwarves in the western city-states may not be able to escape, under the wrath of the northern kingdom, they all have to die.
I sighed and said, "Do you want me to save them?"
The elder shook his head in fear: "No, Lord Isera, I know that the relationship between the dragon clan and the human race is not simple, and the dragon clan will definitely not agree to you doing this." The people of the western city-states I am already planning to give up, a total of seven million dwarves are in the west, they will delay the forces of the imperial city, I just hope that you can help me pass on a message that they will not resist, lest they be slaughtered by the strong. ”
I was stunned, and the elder gasped: "This is my temporary idea, as long as the dwarves of the eastern city-state escape, and revive the dwarven national strength in the future, they can come back to rescue the clansmen." As long as they don't resist, there is hope for survival. ”
It was a good idea, and I nodded yes, "Okay, how do I get that across to you?"
The elder untied a small horn from his waist, and his whole body was black, but it was surprisingly clean.
He placed the horn in my hand and said solemnly, "Lord Ysera, this horn has been passed down for a thousand years, and its voice can be understood by every descendant of the dwarves. ”
I was a little surprised that this horn was hot, as if it had been polished out of some underground flame stone.
"Is it okay to blow it?"
I asked, and the elder nodded, "Yes, I've engraved my order into it, just blow it out." ”
It was amazing to hear him say that, and I nodded my head in understanding, and said goodbye.
The territory of Beiqian is very large, and the east and west sides are nearly a thousand miles wide, and it is difficult for the dwarves in the western city-states to escape to the Loki Mountains, and even if no one intercepts them, they will have to run around the clock for months.
Besides, the Northern Kingdom has already reacted, and they are destined to be difficult to escape.
I flew back in the air, and all I saw were dwarves running away, almost every corner of the plains.
When they got close to Lamb City, they finally saw the cavalry of the Northern Empire, fierce and powerful, grabbing spears and swords to slash the dwarves they saw.
It's a pity that the dwarven team is too scattered and too wide, and the northern thousand kingdoms have limited troops, and without the obstruction of the city wall, they can't stop the dwarf team at all.
Then I flew over Lamb, the royal city was back in the hands of the Terrans, all the gates were closed, the walls were high with fire and thunderstones, and the many spearmen and archers were like enemies.
Even the road to the imperial capital was crowded with dwarves, who had come from the western city-states, and could no longer advance here unless they had made a long way around the imperial capital.
I looked down from the sky, and I could see that the road to the west was full of dwarves with their families in tow, and many strong dwarves grabbed their weapons and formed a makeshift team to storm the gates of the imperial capital.
But the face was defeated, and the sound of the explosion of the Fire Thunderstone frightened the dwarves back, and it was impossible for them to pass through the imperial capital.
The same is true of the rest of the city-states, which have restored order and begin to intercept the dwarves from the west, and the seven million dwarves in the west are stopped by the city-states and are facing a desperate situation.
Although many of them are very strong, after all, they are short, their weapons are simple, and they have no combat skills.
My mind radiated, and I watched everywhere in the vast western realm, where war had broken out, and the dwarves were reckless and impulsive, fighting the Terrans, and there was chaos everywhere.
And I felt a powerful magical aura, the strong man of the human race appeared, and even if the dwarves could defeat the mortals, it would be impossible to escape.
I looked no further, and blew the horn in the air.
An ancient voice rang out, and it turned out to be a strange magical sound. My heart trembled, as if I felt the breath of antiquity.
The sound of magic, no matter how loud or loud it is, can be heard throughout the endless land. I didn't understand it at all, but when the notes came out, all the dwarves fell silent, centered around the city-state below me, and stopped fighting.
They really didn't resist anymore.
Seven million dwarves had given up their resistance, and it was impossible for the Terrans to kill them all, and it was enough to execute a few leaders.
As the sun set, the western city-states finally fell silent, and the dwarves surrendered, watchful by Terran soldiers, waiting for their next orders.
And most of the cavalry of the reserve of the Northern Qian Kingdom began to pursue to the east. I don't care about these mortals, no matter how powerful they are, they can't leave more than 10 million dwarves behind.
I care more about those strong people, in my perception, there are also many strong people in the south, apparently they have received orders to rush back from the direction of Haiyue Country.
Among them, there are even strong women, who must be the strong men of the Bauhinia Country, who came to assist the Northern Qian Kingdom.
I sighed in my heart, this time I had to fight against the Terrans, otherwise the thousands of dwarves in the east would not be able to escape.
I hope my father won't scold me to death, I have to represent the dragons on the opposite side of the human race.
(I took my sister to the doctor today, there is only one chapter, I hope you forgive me.) (To be continued.) )
