The grand strategy of the nomads is similar everywhere. Fight the enemy's soft underbelly by mobility, and destroy the enemy's will by cruelty. Therefore, the gameplay of slaughtering the city and not sealing the knife for three days is very slippery among the nomads who are fascinated.

This set is effective against ordinary countries and ordinary cities. The group of cowardly people within the enemy, because of the tragic situation of the example in front of them, will choose to take the initiative to help, disintegrate their own people from the inside, and only seek a way to survive.

But for the Magic Tower, this trick is not so easy.

A tower supported twenty people, and the owner of the tower had absolute authority; In the face of war, the tower owner does not rely on people to fight, but relies on magic towers to fight. Therefore, whoever dares to show cowardice in front of the tower owner and make a surrender speech will be slaughtered directly, and will never say the second nonsense, and can save one person's rations.

So for the side that wants to attack the magic tower, there are only two options left: hard play and food loss tactics.

And if you want to surround and starve the people in the tower, you have to take into account that the attack range of the magic tower is measured in ten (kilometers), how many troops do you need to completely surround it, how much price do you have to pay, how much can you do to turn the surroundings of the magic tower into scorched earth, and most importantly, how long does it take to make the magic tower starved?

If the tower owner dares to do it, he can spend several years with hundreds of thousands of troops with one person and one tower. For example, use your own apprenticeship as an emergency ration......

Therefore, for those lord forces who are interested in targeting the magic tower, they rarely choose siege tactics. Because of the huge amount of manpower and material resources consumed, it is very likely that the expected results will not be obtained. After all, as long as the opponent survives one tower master, he can maintain complete combat effectiveness.

If you attack hard, there is no magic tower that cannot be breached. But before the goal can be achieved, the person giving the order must first have the consciousness of a great deal of sacrifice. In the face of a war fortress, there is no way to take it lightly.

In that war of aggression launched by the Sulitan Empire, its cruel behavior after invading the enemy country caused the dissatisfaction of the lord of the magic tower, who was in favor of the enemy country, and refused to submit to the empire.

As the so-called Son of Heaven is angry, thousands of miles away, this situation will also happen in the lost land. It's just that this time it was true that many people died, but it was tens of thousands of corpses left by the attacking soldiers. The magic tower is full of calculations, and there are only five people. The tower master, his wife, and three students have a full-fledged magician and two apprentices.

In order to make an example of the monkeys, the Great Khan of the Sulitan Empire ordered the killing of all the prisoners, although there were only five people, and tearing them alive was not enough to relieve the army; Then tear down the magic tower, and all the masonry is left alone! Such cruelty did make the second magic tower master contacted by the army take the initiative to subdue and promise not to be an enemy of the empire.

Then came the most incomprehensible order in this war, from the mouth of the Khan of the Golden Family: booby-trap, push the tower, and leave no stone behind!

The original intention of surrendering the tower lord was to let the conquering army pass by, and he would break away from the position of the invaded country and no longer interfere in any of the empire's acts of war. Just like the magic tower that was originally in the territory of the Sulitan Empire, the two sides were at peace. But eventually, the bodies of him, his students, and his family were pierced by wooden stakes and stood above the ruins of what had once been the Magic Tower.

No one's position as the master of the tower is safe and secure, and there must be a bloody accumulation in the early stage, and it may even be the result of several generations. Although the completed magic tower cannot be inherited by their own family or their students, the magicians who built the tower have a higher vision of their contribution to the world.

Magicians believe that the magic tower that goes deep into the wilderness is a refuge for travelers and a guard of civilization. Each additional magic tower can shelter people in one more area, and you can open up an extra inch of land in the wilderness.

Under such a premise, anyone who topples a magic tower is like touching the nerves of the entire group of magicians. If it is the kind of magic tower built in the middle of the city to serve the noble lords, it will be counted; If the kind of magic tower that hangs alone at the forefront of the fight against demonic beasts, or goes deep into the wilderness, is overturned, it is simply a taboo for the entire group of magicians.

Even if you don't talk about ideals, a magic tower is the foundation of the tower owner, the last fortress, and the place where you plan to bury your bones. If it's about rules and morality, then forget it. But threatening a tower master with blood is only unleashing the beast in their hearts. Those who can become tower masters have all been ruthless people.

Therefore, after the tragedy of the second tower, almost all the magic towers in the territory of the Sulitan Empire rebelled. The magicians unscrupulously used tower magic to bombard the clansmen left behind in the empire, as long as the opponent entered the attack range of the magic tower. A large and powerful group of empires and magicians of our time has entered a state of all-out war in an instant.

The fact that the nomadic armies needed little supply from the rear did not mean that they would be cut off from the rear. When the Khan of the Golden Family learned of the fire in his backyard, he could not choose to compromise with his arrogance, but to fight back in a high-profile and unsparing manner.

The army used to invade in their hands went in and out, knocking down one magic tower after another. Let the world understand that they are the real rulers of this world compared to magicians!

Such a move did not make the tower owners choose to succumb, but the magic tower, which originally had no idea of confronting the Sulitan Empire, also embarked on a hostile path. Even the Golden Khan Court was destroyed by the magic tower of the headquarters of the Dushanbe branch of the Wizards' Association.

Whether it was the soldiers who stayed behind to disarm the magic tower, or the magicians who used the tower magic to brutally kill women and children, that is why the Khan's court launched a counterattack, and the cause is unknown. In short, one of the most brutal battles in the Great War of the North took place in the originally interdependent Golden Khan Court and the Dushanbe Sub-district Headquarters of the Sorcerers' Association.

The attack magic used by the tower is all at the strategic level, that is, a wide range of attacks, and there is no way to distinguish between soldiers and women and children. Not to mention that for nomads, those who have a horse and can hold a bow can be regarded as soldiers, and there is no way to strictly distinguish between the military and the civilian, only by age and gender.

Therefore, the Golden Khan Court, which was mainly composed of women and children, and a small number of elite troops remained behind, was completely destroyed by the magic tower of the district headquarters. Perhaps it wasn't the deadliest war in the Suritang Empire in the counterattack launched by the Magemen's Guild, but it was definitely a turning point in the fate of the Northern Empire.

The final result of the war was the rupture of the Suritang Empire with the entire group of magicians. The two divisions of the Wizards' Guild in the Empire, Dushanbe and Ashkha, were shattered, and all the magic towers in the territory were bulldozed.

The price paid by the secular regime was the close collapse of an empire powerful enough to sweep through the lands, the authority of the Golden Family was gone, and the heads of the lands were almost self-reliant. Even the hawks in the remaining four empires think that there are only four empires left in the land, so how can there be five.

The biggest reason for all this is that for a powerful regime, the magic tower that was built at a huge cost did not bring them any war dividends.

A Magician's Treasure? How can this compare to the wealth of an empire? Even if the preciousness is more than that, but what about the quantity?

Grain? A magic tower, the rations of a dozen people at most, even if you can eat for a year. In the army, it is not enough to stuff the teeth.

Population? That is, women and children...... Just the few kittens in the magic tower have all been captured, can they compare to so many dead warriors?

Conclusion: Attacking the Magic Tower for no reason is a losing deal for a country.

The high-profile invasion of the Sulitão Empire has made the country nervous, and even the military offensive and defensive alliances under the table have begun to brew. As a result, the most powerful country of our time has stumbled, and it seems that it is still the kind that cannot get up.

All the nobles, generals, and kings who had been watching the war had for the first time raised the loose organization of the Wizards' Guild to a level of equal status with them. Because if you don't do this, you can't do it, an empire that is so powerful that everyone doesn't dare to look at it directly will be crippled by the masters.

At this time, everyone noticed what kind of existence the magic towers dotted around the Lost Land Continent were. For rulers who are interested in invading and annexing other countries, negotiations with the Wizards' Guild become an insurmountable barrier.

The most fucked up thing is that even if the association makes a decision, there will be a considerable number of tower owners who will do their own thing and not obey orders. The association has no absolute authority over the tower masters, and it is worse than the king to the noble lords of various places.

It was also the first time since the Great War in the North that representatives of the powerful regimes of the Lost Lands sat together in order to negotiate a way to get along with the Wizards' Guild. This includes clarifying the territory of X X (10 km) around the magic tower, and standing on a neutral position and not interfering with the rule of local nobles. There is also the rule that the tower owner has the power of life and death in the magic tower, which is also clearly recorded during this period.

These agreements seem to be a recognition of the power of many magic tower owners, but they invisibly stifle the development of the magic tower in terms of power. Of course, the masters didn't understand the calculations of the nobles, but they still accepted it. After all, for most mages, they prefer to focus on the study of magic, and are not so keen on managing power. These agreements can be regarded as taking what you need.

In short, since there has never been the phrase 'I come, I see, I conquer', there will be no future one. Because there is no force that can ignore the magic towers that are lined up everywhere and invade others at will. And the likes and dislikes of the Dharma masters are not like ordinary people, who can be swayed by some inconspicuous righteousness.

And in the same situation, if it were left to those empires or forces that had left a great name in history, would they be able to break through such a predicament?

Countless military scientists, generals who command the army, and those who wear crowns or crowns and have noble bloodlines, all have the same understanding: impossible. Even a thousand years ago, the Dark Legion that once reigned in the Lost Lands would not work.
