The Lightning Legion, which had already circled the rear of the three Maro legions, marched towards the nearest Maro occupied city as planned, and kept intercepting their supplies along the way, so that the Maro Legion chasing after them could not get sufficient supplies and gradually became exhausted.

The materials consumed by the three full-fledged Maro legions are very huge, even if only more than half of them are intercepted, it is quite a huge number, and the lightning legion, which is already small in number, has obviously consumed these things, so in addition to the part used by itself, a large part of it is sent to passing villages or polluted and thrown away.

This period of time is the happiest period of the lightning army that will eat canned food for a long time, not only does it eat meat every day, but also has a large number of fresh vegetables and fruits to eat, which makes the soldiers who eat canned food to the point of going crazy in the later battles, every time they think about it, they are extremely nostalgic.

As the Lightning Legion continued to advance, things didn't go as Refora thought, and the other side slowly staggered each other in order to chase them. These Maro, who are not stupid, have adopted another means to deal with this situation. Unable to obtain sufficient supplies, the Maro legions plundered villages along the way, robbing the local Carthaginians of food.

At the same time, the horses were put on the carriage and set off with a certain number of cavalry. Use quick maneuvers to bypass the Lightning Legion and return to the city ahead. It not only protects the precious war horses, but also reduces the food burden of the large army. Only more than 3,000 slower foot infantry were left to suffer in the rear, and they could barely get some preserved food every day.

If this is the Carthaginian overseas barbarian mercenary army, or the Carthaginian army that the Maro call the sissy, such a situation is enough to make these soldiers scratch, and if the starvation lasts too long, it can even happen**, and the whole army will be reduced to a large wave of thugs who burn and loot everywhere.

However, these Maro soldiers were able to endure this situation, and their good discipline allowed them to endure the churning of acid in their stomach pouches, and march with their heads bowed as usual. They were now not far from the nearest supply city, and their legion commander had told them that there was only a small legion in front of them, and supplies could not be reached in front of them.

And now, as the distance continues to approach, if they do not get out of the way of supply, then they will be surrounded by the city and them, and what awaits them will be a brutal slaughter. This gave hope to Marlowe's soldiers, who believed what the Legion Commanders had said, for they had never broken their word.

Eventually, as they approached the city, they found the legion that had been deprived of their supplies, and the number was as small as the Legion Commanders had claimed. Straight at their dense battle formation, the formation on the opposite side was thin and pitiful, as if a single charge had drowned these people in a sea of people. The Maro soldiers, who had been aggrieved all the way, were gearing up to teach these Elan bastards a lesson, so that they could also taste the wrath of the Maro people.

A killing inevitably happens, but it doesn't turn out to be the same as promised. Outnumbered, they were the ones to be killed, and for the first time the countrymen saw the power of artillery, which had gone from a cannonball that whistled down like death to a broken corpse.

And even if you just get closer, you will be knocked to the ground by the loud explosion and your ears will be deaf, and everything in front of you will become trance-like and unable to stand. The phalanx of the Maro Legion, which was blinded in an instant, was in chaos, and the soldiers in front fled backwards in order to escape the explosion, colliding with the neat formation behind.

The overseers who had been at the rear came up with swords, and the panicked soldiers saw the tall and brightly dressed soldiers, and instantly remembered the military discipline that had been forgotten because of fear. Compared to the shells that they didn't know where they fell, these people and soldiers who were dedicated to killing themselves were even more terrifying. These Maro soldiers, who wanted to retreat, could only reline themselves with the fear in their hearts, praying that the next shell from the god of war would not fall on them.

"It's almost like lining up and waiting for our shells to kill them. Greer said with a smile as he looked at the Maro soldiers who had regrouped during the bombardment, still lined up in a neat phalanx. Although they knew that this was the formation they had been training in for a long time, under the fire it looked like they were lining up to die, and accurate shelling would wipe out the phalanxes one by one.

"It's true at the moment, they don't know much about the power of artillery. Refra nodded and looked at the black smoke rising from the explosion of the advancing Maro Legion and said, "And that moving magic shield doesn't seem to be able to equip all the troops yet." ”

Fireballs rose from the phalanx of the Maro Legion and flew towards the formation of the Lightning Legion. The Maro, who had suffered a big loss, began to fight back, and those mages who were not very strong with the army jointly performed a group fireball technique. This kind of magic, which is not very high, is the most used in the confrontation between the legions.

However, the mages of the three legions combined only unleashed their mana three times before they ran out of magic. A large number of unusually gorgeous and dangerous-looking fireballs struck towards the formation of the Lightning Legion with their tails. It smashed into the array like a cannon, making a lot of explosions, and it looked extremely terrifying.

But only the Salt in front of him received some damage, most of the fireballs were crotched by the steel shield in his hand, and the explosion only blew some Salt to the ground, but it didn't hurt him too much. The Salts, who don't have any talent for magic, also have a lot of resistance to magic.

"Won. Kira looked at the Maro people who were panicking under another round of artillery, and the Salt warriors who had begun to charge at the Maro soldiers who were close enough, and came to the final result of this battle......+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ and at this time in Thunder Cliff, Mo Yan, who only knew that he had begun the battle, was busy with a very important matter. As the intelligence of the monsters in Thunder Cliff continues to improve, they can already do some technical jobs, not just as low-level workers.

Three days earlier, Mo Yan had passed a decree ordering a group of trained goblins to enter the factory and work with the Salts. Some of the more intelligent werewolves and horned demons have even been ordered to serve as some of the less important leaders of the factory, and many Saltes will also work under their management.

This was an extremely bold move for Thunder Bluff, which inevitably aroused opposition from the Salts. They are reluctant to work with monsters, and even more reluctant to accept the management of monsters. This is an insult to them, as it will make others task them to be on the same level as the monsters.

Some factory workers went on strike, while more took to the streets to start marching, and the originally orderly Thunder Cliff was thrown into chaos. A large number of monster legions entered the city, and there were teams of monsters on every street corner, staring at the marching workers, but they did not have any conflict with them.

"I don't know who taught them this. Standing in front of the office window, the Minotaur looked at the Salts who were demonstrating in front of the castle with signs, and smiled like a group of clowns performing: "Oh...... It seems that I taught them to parade, but I didn't expect them to learn quite quickly. ”

Aruba, who had come to inquire about the Minotaur's indifferent attitude, was a little dissatisfied, so he walked up to the Minotaur and pointed at those people and frowned, saying, "Aren't you in a hurry at all? There are already three or four large factories in the city that have stopped working, and Thunder Cliff can't survive long just by relying on those products in stock."

It's impossible to get monsters to work with the Salts, not to mention that you have some monsters in charge of them. You are pushing all the workers against you. I don't know what you think, wouldn't it be nice to be like you used to?"

"Don't worry about Aruba, everything is in my hands. The minotaur turned his head to look at Aruba and asked, "This is something that Thunder Cliff is bound to go through, and it is much better to happen early than later." Now that the intelligence of the monsters has begun to improve, it is obviously a waste of their intelligence to let them do some low-level work. ”

"Then there is no need to arrange them with the Salts?" Aruba said still puzzled, "It is completely possible to set up a special factory, and mixing with the Salts will inevitably lead to such a result." We can accept monsters in the city, but we can't accept monsters that are so close to us. ”

"Do you discriminate against monsters? The Minotaur looked at Aruba with unprecedented solemnity and said, "You must know that I am also a monster, and this is the city I have built. I have no objection to saying that in the beginning, the monsters were not very intelligent, and could only engage in some simple low-level occupations. ”

The minotaur paced back to his desk and sat down, continued: "And now that their intelligence has risen, and some have even reached the level of ordinary people, can't they work with the Salts? ”

The highest level of nonsense is to say what you don't believe in as if it were true. As for letting the monsters join the factory and work beside the Salts, of course, it will not be as Mo Yan said, to treat the monsters equally and establish the so-called Datong world.
