On the west coast of the mainland, the residential areas are basically fishing ports and fishing villages, and there are only a few slightly larger towns, and the ice port is the largest city on the west coast, which is located 10 miles north of the Sanggan River, connecting the main straight roads of the mainland highway.

The Sanggan River is the largest river on the continent of Eminole, originating from the northern foot of the Holy Snow Mountain, flowing all the way to the north, after collecting a large amount of rainwater from the subtropical rainforest in the boundary forest, it enters the Mesas Snow Mountain basin to the west, and all the glacial rivers originating from the Mesis Snow Mountain have converged to the Sanggan River, and finally rush into the sea.

Compared with other major rivers on the mainland, the Sanggan River has the lowest water temperature and the most complex topography through which it flows. As a result, the water of the Sangan River carries a large amount of minerals, and at the mouth of the sea meets the sea, attracting a large number of sockeye salmon to feed here, and the delicious taste of salmon roe is unforgettable for all who have tasted it.

Every autumn, during the salmon season, there is often a magnificent scene of thousands of sails sailing off the Sanggan River. The female salmon was immediately sliced open, and the salmon roe the size of a red soybean suddenly overflowed.

Outside the ice port, there are ice floes floating all year round - ice breaks from the Ice Continent and the Macis Snow Mountain, and fishermen use these ice blocks to keep the roe fresh, and transport it to the ice port in the shortest possible time, where it is purchased by merchants from mainland countries and shipped to various parts of the mainland. Merchants on the mainland refer to this city and the village of Ulu (called) in the hinterland of the mainland as the two cornucopias, and the other name of the Broken Ice City is the red sè caviar cornucopia.

Historically, this seaport city had never been explicitly handed over to any mercenary group by the Empire - there were only a few cities in the Empire that paid more than 300,000 yuan a year.

"Famous Cities in the World" ※※※

On March 12, the 5th winter of the magic calendar, the training of imperial mercenary cadres officially came to an end.

In the past month, from the information obtained from all sides, the three-party seven-nation duel on the Eminole continent has entered a period of stability, although including the Holy Desert Empire has entered a state of imminent war, however, the two enemy forces that invaded seem to have turned into a defensive state, and have not carried out any attacks for more than a month.

The Imperial Ministry represented by Duke Chi submitted a report in the Council Hall: The military representatives believed that the enemies of the two forces were from the tropics, and the areas where they had launched attacks on the mainland were also in the tropics, and to the north was the temperate zone covered with ice and snow. The enemies of the other continent seem to be waiting, waiting for the ice to melt away from the chūn day, and if nothing else, after the month of chūn, the enemies of two different continents will launch new attacks from three directions on two or three countries on the continent.

In this report, the following points were also emphatically mentioned: 1. In the previous report, it was believed that both enemy armies were fighting across continents, and a long supply line would inevitably lead to a decline in the combat strength of the other side. In order to obtain greater supplies, the enemy army will resort to warfare and plunder on the continent of Eminole. However, from a practical point of view, whether it is the enemy of the Fanos continent or the more evil enemy of Alcatraz, they are quite friendly to the residents of the Eminole continent, if the local noble nobles are willing to cooperate, they will do their best to protect the interests of the nobles and use the nobles to maintain local order; if the local nobles do not cooperate or have simply fled, they will distribute the noble property to other local residents of the famous local area to form new aristocratic interests. This can be seen from the fact that the Human Knights have been established on the continent of Fanos.

2. The most fundamental purpose of the westward expansion of the Fanos continent should be to shift the focus of the front. No matter how well the attack of the Eastern Legion of the Phanos continent goes, even if they occupy the entire territory of the mercenary empire, they will not be in a good situation. The mercenary empire is surrounded by the sea on both sides in the southeast, and the north is the enchanted forest under the protection of the jīng spirit king, and the power of humans and even the power of the dragon clan will be greatly reduced in the enchanted forest, and before, no army has crossed the enchanted forest in a peaceful way or otherwise; There is only one continental road between the Enchanted Forest and the Boundary Forest, and this part is an enclave of the Amy Empire in the Holy See, Tongyun Pass. Defended by one of the four great jīng Rui of the Empire, there is no record of being conquered in history.

Therefore, the Phanos Legion will inevitably open up a new battlefield, the east of the continent is the Desert Empire and the Holy See, the Desert Empire is definitely not the primary target of the other party, the Holy See is the most likely to be attacked, this time it is very strange to escape, the biggest possibility is that the enemy hopes to destroy the living combat power of the continental countries, and the power of the Holy See in this regard is really not worth mentioning.

3. The enemy of Alcatraz Island, led by a young man who is reported to be the guardian of the gods, has defeated the organized defenses of the Xiuth Empire in just ten months, and captured the capital, with a long coastline to the south that can provide a steady stream of supplies, embracing the natural danger of the Lion River, and occupying a large area of land on the north bank of the Lion River, which is strategically in an extremely advantageous position.

4. From the previous point of view, the war forces of the countries of the Eminole Continent are as follows: Amy Empire: Desert Empire: Mercenary Empire: Holy See: Remnants of the Xiuth Empire: Fanos Continent: Alcatraz Force = 10:5:3:1:1:4:5 The Redstone Emperor basically agreed with the report submitted by the military department, and instructed the military department to quickly implement the large-scale assembly of the empire's native army.

The Little Mercenary Regiment is no exception.

After two months of renovation, the Little Mercenary Group has become one of the largest mercenary groups on the continent, and Long and Mo Ye have recruited a total of 900 new Ice and Snow Boys in the Ice and Snow Continent twice in a row. A considerable number of the newly joined Ice and Snow Boys are non-Hami residents from the Hami Kingdom, the Hami Kingdom has created several towns near the mainland highway with millions of gold coins, and after a large number of immigrants entered, they learned the true source of the town construction funds, and they are grateful to the two founders of the small mercenary group, Amy and Daqingshan, and now the population size of several small towns has reached 80,000, when Long went here to recruit soldiers, I heard that it was the expansion of the small mercenary group, and almost all the residents wanted to join the mercenary group, and it was going quite smoothly.

At the station of the small mercenary group, a very large number of people sign up to join every day. There are mainly two types of people who want to join, first of all, the small mercenary group of the empire or a low-level mercenary, mercenary is a high-risk and high-reward profession, joining a large-scale mercenary group is the best way for new mercenaries to save their lives and make money, but unfortunately most of the mercenary groups above the B level have their own juvenile mercenary training bases, rarely recruit people from outside, and the opportunity for large-scale expansion of small mercenary groups is too rare; The knighthood of the empire gave these nobles new hope. Chi Aotian and Balbas, who were in charge of the mercenary group's affairs, selected 200 new mercenaries from thousands of applicants according to strict requirements, and about 40% of them were children of nobles. These noble children have been trained according to the standards of knights since childhood, and most of them already have the official knightly title of the empire, after Chi Aotian and Amy negotiated, the small mercenary group established a second knight unit after the vulture swordsman battalion.

On March 15 of winter, the small mercenary group and the large army set off for Dìdū for Broken Ice Harbor.

The first to set off was two vulture swordsmen, as soon as the sky was dark, 10 huge vultures spread their wings and rushed into the gray blue sky, according to the mercenary group's arrangement, they went to the town 60 miles away to arrange the day's accommodation - the food and lodging of the 1,500 people and the mounts was a big problem, and if the arrangement was not good, they might have to sleep on the streets.

At 8:00 in the morning, the first to set off was the Blocking Swordsman Battalion led by Balbas, followed by the Great Swordsman Battalion, and in the middle were the teenagers who had just been incorporated into the small mercenary group, and before they had time to divide their belongings, the Demon Swordsman Battalion and the Vulture Swordsman Battalion led by Daqingshan, Amy, and Horns were the Magic Swordsman Battalion and the Vulture Swordsman Battalion and the Bow Battalion. Chi Aotian led the knight battalion to slowly advance about 500 meters behind the team. In the sky, more than 200 young and adult griffins spread their wings and soared, and four of them monitored the surrounding situation from the front, back, left and right, and every hour, the vulture swordsmen in the sky came down to change to other brothers.

The inhabitants of Scambray tend to boast of being well-informed, with a massive military parade every five years for hundreds of years, and a visit to Scambrai every 20 years for the Empire's major armies to report on their duties. The formation displayed on the day of the departure of the small mercenary group became the topic of conversation for the next month: no army had ever had such an organization, the sky was covered by a large bird of prey, a huge dragon soared from the sky, and from time to time vulture knights took off and landed in the procession, and several different troops passed by one after another on the ground, and on the periphery a cavalry squad patrolled.

Seeing the full strength of the small mercenary group for the first time, Amy herself was still startled: "Da Qingshan, do you remember the scene when we created the mercenary group? At that time, we only had to earn 5 silver coins a day to make money, and now, it is a problem for so many people to eat every day. ”

In a word, it brought Daqingshan back to 5 years ago, and the black-haired boy looked up at the proud figure of Lu'er in the sky, and smiled: "Well, Lu'er was only so big at that time." He said as he gestured less than a meter high.

Lin Yushang and Sha Ruo are not far behind, Lin Yushang has to follow this time, the girl is now dead to Amy, there is only one reason to join the little mercenary group, here you can find a partner who is the same age as herself and very good. Listening to the conversation between Amy and Da Qingshan, Lin Yushang said, "If it weren't for me and Sha Ruo hiring you, the small mercenary group would have such a large scale now?"

Amy glanced at Ying: "Hehe, if I'm not mistaken, you seem to owe us commissions at that time." ”

"Heh—without our hiring, you could have made a million gold coins in that grand gamble? That's right, Sharuo. The head of the regiment is so ungrateful. "Magicians have very good memories, and Lin Yushang is the best among them.

Maybe the speaker is really unintentional, but the listener is really intentional. A word of ingratitude made Amy not know what to say, and her face flushed slightly, although she had never done anything wrong, but the matter between men and women was not clear. Lin Yushang also found out that he had a sick sentence, and ran away with Sha Ruo. Ying had a wicked smile on her face, and a look in her crooked smile eyes that she wanted you to look good.

I knew that Ying was deliberately teasing herself, but now, if you explain it, the more you explain, the more confused it becomes, and Amy is not knowing what to do, when two huge vultures in the sky fall in the wind and waves. A boy and a girl jumped off the griffin at the same time. The number of girls in the small mercenary group is not large, about 20% of the total, and the girls who can stay are often super strong, and the girls rush to Amy's side as quickly as the wind: "Commander, there are soldiers in ambush on the left flank of the team, and the number does not exceed 200 people." The boy boy mercenary then saluted: "Report, on the right side of the line, there is also an ambush." The number of people does not exceed 300. ”

Amy, Da Qingshan, and Horns glanced at each other, and Horns waved his hand to signal the two captains to rise into the air again to continue the jǐng ring, and the Wild Eagle Swordsman should have sent someone to inform Balbas at the front and Chi Aotian at the back. The team in front quickly stopped, and Chi Aotian rode a black horse from behind.

Ambush? What are you kidding? The small mercenary group set off from dìdū for less than half a day, and has been traveling on the mainland highway, most of the west side of dìdū is a plain area, and the remaining veins of the Macys Snow Mountain are still 200 miles to the north, and there are only occasionally some small hills that are no more than 30 meters high. This is only 30 miles from the Empire, and if you can attack a small mercenary group here, you can go to Dìdū to attack the royal family.

Within 100 miles of Dìdū is a completely safe area, and no gang of thieves or bandits will attack a caravan here.

In history, there have been several bands of thieves who have the audacity to intercept and kill the traveling nearby, and as a result, they stabbed the hornet's nest at once, the Colorful Dragon Knights, the Praetorian Guards, the Border Guards, the Mercenary Guild, the Thieves Guild, the Magic Guild, the Imperial Knight School, The Imperial School of Magic and other dozens of guild army organizations stationed in dìdū suddenly felt faceless, and as many as 7 bounty arrest warrants were issued on the same day, and the reward amount exceeded the total value of the looted goods by more than 20 times, and the mercenary groups all over the continent were frantically rushing to dìdū, and in those rìzi, within 100 miles around dìdū, soldiers, mercenaries, students of the knight school, residents and farmers near dìdū with simple weapons, and even many people holding slabs and bricks dragging snot 5, A small 6-year-old.

The thieves ended up in a terrible end. In the face of the huge exploits and bounties, they were smashed and cut down by the swarm of mercenaries and soldiers (there were really a few children over 8 years old), and finally they were dismembered by the people and went to the guilds and legions to receive rewards.

Since then, the 100 li surrounding dìdū has been listed as an absolute safe zone for business travelers.

The eyes of several young people were full of doubts, who could it be? What do you mean? A team of about 400 people came to attack a mercenary group of 1,500 people, which was simply too exaggerated.

After experiencing the tragic battle on Xilin Island, the main cadres of the small mercenary group became more cautious. Amy asked Horns to stay at the end of the team to command, Chi Aotian returned to the knight camp to prepare for war, and Amy and Daqingshan walked quickly to the swordsman camp side by side.

The vulture swordsman camp frantically sounded the whistles, the vulture swordsmen were summoning their mounts, and the vultures soaring in the sky gathered their wings and fell, and after a few breaths, they rose into the air again, encircling the sides from the air. The bow and arrow battalion and the demon swordsman battalion quickly followed, and under the instructions of the jǐng ring swordsman in the air, the bow and arrow quickly pointed at the dense forest on the hills on both sides of the continental road, and the magic swordsmen had already begun to quietly release the magic of defense, and the magic shields of each sè emitted a dazzling light. Then, Chi Aotian called out to leave the dragon and rose into the air.

"Whoever you are, whatever your purpose is, come out now, or you will bear the consequences. Facing the dense forest on the small hills on both sides, Amy quietly released a sound amplification magic and said calmly.
