Explore and conquer
In the year 4006, a huge fleet of more than 50,000 soldiers of the Violet Empire quietly sailed away from the port in the southeast, preparing to attack the rich ports of the Fia Empire on the southwest continent. But not long after this fleet went to sea, it suddenly encountered a violent typhoon, and the entire fleet was blown away, and less than thirty percent of the ships and soldiers survived, and the Violet Empire was also greatly damaged, and the navy was almost completely wiped out!
In this shipwreck, a small fleet of 2,000 men sailing on the periphery was lucky enough to escape the storm, but their ships were also blown off the course, and the hurricane continued to blow them eastward, and finally came to an unknown sea that they had never been before. They lost their bearings and drifted blindly on the sea, searching in vain for their way home. But day after day passed, and at the end of that sea of confusion, apart from the sea, there was still an endless sea.
In the blink of an eye, three months passed, water and food were gradually running out, and just when these poor soldiers were already desperate, the horizon appeared. The soldiers poured onto land in ecstasy, only to discover that this was not their native Atlantus. It is a plain rich in coconut palms, and the soldiers named it the Coconut Wind Plain. After a survey along the coastline, the soldiers were surprised to find that this was a completely different world than they had imagined.
It is a beautiful and rich continent, with gold and silver, minerals, spices, precious stones, etc., all of which are precious treasures that humans on the continent of Atlantus dream of. There are many intelligent creatures and countless strange species living here, and the barbarian humans, orcs, and dwarves each have their own territory in this land, and there seems to be frequent wars, but they all have one thing in common: these intelligent races all worship and worship the dark god Balles!
It's terrible, it's incredible! They discovered a new continent, and this new continent is most likely Grecia who left Atlantus three thousand years ago!
The local orcs and dwarves apparently paid little attention to the outsiders, the barbarians, who were called barbarians because of their rudimentary technology, their weapons and armor were made of bronze, and they looked like the uncivilized barbarians. The barbarians apparently had no ill will towards their kind who came from the other side of the sea in huge ships, but curiosity was there.
With the help of the barbarians, the soldiers recuperated on the Coconut Plain for a while, stockpiled enough food, repaired the ships, mapped the Coconut Plain, and obtained a large amount of gold, silver, spices and other wealth through the trade of weapons and the like. Ready to return, the fleet left some personnel, and the rest boarded the big ships and began to return to their homeland in the west.
After another three long voyages, after numerous storms and dangers, the fleet finally returned to the port of Atlantus without danger. The officers reported what they had seen in Grecia to the Emperor, who was struggling to resist the attacks of the Fian Empire, and offered gold, silver, and precious spices brought back from the Coconut Wind Plain. The Violet Emperor almost went mad with joy, and he immediately ordered the dwarves of the whole country to be recruited to the ports along the coast to build countless huge ocean-going ships in preparation for the expedition to Glesia.
After all the preparations were made, the fleet of the Violet Empire was about to set sail. But the attacks of the Fia Empire will never go out like a tidal wave, and they will attack fiercely while the Empire is in great danger until Violet collapses. The Violet Emperor revealed the news from Grecia to the Pope, and the Holy See was shocked.
Oh my God! Glesia has rebelled against Balles, the god of darkness! They believe in the enemy of the god of light, the god of darkness! This is an unforgivable crime!
Under the almost angry protests of the Holy See and the temptation of great wealth from Glesia, the Fia Empire finally relented, signed a temporary truce with the Violet Empire, and sent the Knights to the Holy See to form a new Knights of Light, ready to go on an expedition against the infidels of Glesia. The Fia Empire also sent its own fleet to go with it.
Holy Knights of Light, a new holy war has begun!
In June 4007, a mighty Atlantic fleet slaughtered the continent of Glesia, and thanks to the accurate route mapped, although the fleet still lost a tenth of its ships in the storm, it still reached its destination - the coconut wind plain on the southwest coast of the mainland of Glesia. As usual, the indigenous people of the continent came to greet these people from afar, but this time, instead of selling them sophisticated weapons, they plunged sharp spears into their chests.
The flames of war raged on the Coconut Wind Plains, and the aborigines with extremely backward weapons and tactics were no match for the elite Atlantean soldiers, and the barbarian humans, orcs, and dwarves were wiped out, and the Atlantans ransacked the plains, and the blood stained the Ron River.
The 20,000 soldiers returned to the seashore and built several castle-protected colonies along the coast, and the Knights of Light and the soldiers of both countries returned triumphantly. Three months later, the expeditionary fleet returned to Atlante through storms, and although the expedition lost more than half of its personnel, the value of the gold, silver, spices, precious stones, and other riches they plundered was ten times the total cost of the expedition! The Violet Empire's harvest exceeded the total revenue of their state this time.
After receiving 10% of the spoils according to the tripartite treaty, the Holy See also immediately became rich, and immediately began to prepare for the expansion of the Knights of Light and the next crusade. The income of the Fia Empire was much less than that of the Violet Empire, and that was because they were far less prepared than the Violet Empire, and the position to establish a colony at the time of the evacuation was not as superior as that of the Violet Empire. The Fia Empire also urgently mobilized to prepare for the next crusade.
The great wealth from Grecia drove the whole of Atlantus crazy, and countless people flocked to that far-flung seafar, with a thirst for wealth and fame, and the seafaring industry was more developed than ever.
The Atlantic continent ushered in a rare period of peace, and the war actually disappeared temporarily on the Atlantic continent.
In October 4009, the Pope once again launched the call for holy war, and the fleet of 30,000 soldiers from the Holy See, the Violet Empire, and the Philippine Empire set sail again, and countless private armies, knights, mercenaries, wanderers, and prisoners also set off, and the largest fleet in human history set off.
This time, the Atlantean expeditionary force once again sacked the Coconut Wind Plains, spreading deeper and farther into the farther regions, slaughtering more barbarians, orcs, and dwarves, and, of course, plundering more wealth. Some knights have even crossed the end of the Coconut Wind Plain to discover the wider plains and the world.
The era of exploration and conquest began.
