Chapter 115: A Hot Blade
Humans' lumberyards are gradually devouring forests.
A large number of human soldiers and hunters began to explore the forest in a planned way, discovering the forest elves and half-elves hiding on the outskirts.
Kill all the resistance!
Korda the Wakiri leads a squad to capture an elven village.
It was an elite squadron of Vakhiri people, five of whom were veterans of the war, and five barbarian nobles who had received formal training at the military academy.
Koda is the elder brother of Fu'o and a descendant of a family of warriors among the Vakiri.
Not only was his bloodline recognized by the people around him, but most importantly, he was guided by a prophet and given the title of quasi-knight.
Quasi-knights, knights, lords, barons, and men who have graduated from military academies can all receive the title of quasi-knight, and then they need to make meritorious contributions on the battlefield to be promoted.
"Captain, the rest want to surrender."
A middle-aged bandit wiped the blood from his face, and the group had just attacked the small village of fifteen elves and half-elves.
Korda asked, "How many of us died?" ”
"More than a dozen people died, and some people couldn't be saved." The man said in a deep voice, "It's all to blame on the male elf, he killed six of us warriors alone." ”
Korda was silent for a moment, looking at the thatched and wooden houses in the distance.
"The loss is too great, go back and rest first."
The dead were all Koda's elite subordinates, and they were all clansmen.
Despite killing three wizarding male elves and several half-elves, the losses were still significant.
The rest quickly obeyed the order and began to clean up the battlefield and return with their dead brother.
Unlike those slave hunters, the Barbarian warriors now have the will to return home with the corpses of their companions.
I used to bury it casually, but after I had cultural beliefs, I always felt sorry for my comrades who had fought together.
When they are able, they also begin to seek some psychological comfort, even if it will waste a lot of energy.
On the outskirts of the forest there is an emergency response team responsible for responding, and as the military nobles of the Frozen Lands, Koda's team quickly converges with the support team in the rear.
Logistics staff were responsible for transporting the bodies back in vehicles, and roads had been repaired between the forest and the city and the countryside.
On both sides of the road, it often spreads out for more than ten meters, and these places slowly expand like small dots, forming sections dedicated to processing and cutting down trees.
On the way back, you can see a large number of lumberjacks and farmers, who gather food and birds' eggs and medicinal herbs near the forest, and also learn the methods of the people nearby, build huts to live in, and dry wood and hay.
Hundreds of years old trees were toppled by humans, and their thick roots were chopped into countless pieces by axes and thrown into flames and furnaces.
From winter to spring, from spring to summer, the elven villages hidden in the vicinity are gradually swept away, and many people have to go deep into the forest to catch the fleeing elves.
The University of Science and Technology returned to the newly built City of Dawn with a team with heavy losses.
Founded on the outskirts of the former Green Forest Kingdom, Auroville has now become a base camp for front-line generals to rest and command.
As soon as Koda entered the city with his men, he saw a group of elves coming out of the city.
Seeing that these elves were all male, and not a single human was present, Korda quickly became vigilant.
But it didn't take long for Korda to think about what this place was.
"Who are you?" Korda reached behind his waist with one hand, where he could feel the axe.
The male elf at the head spread his hands to show that he had no malicious intent, "I'm Alondo, we took refuge here, and now we're about to go out and capture the remaining resistors in this area." ”
Korda didn't believe the elves.
At this time, someone soon ran down from the city wall.
"Koda, what they said is true, and the Prophet agreed to their surrender, allowing them to be our warriors."
The one who spoke was Luke, the weeping Luke.
Knowing that Luke would not be controlled by witchcraft and had absolute confidence in the City of Dawn established by the Prophet, Korda believed them.
"Okay." Koda said to the elven warriors, "The resistance inside is difficult to deal with, you should be careful. ”
Luke looked at the wounded soldiers around Korda, as well as the white cloth covering the nearby carts, and knew that this time the loss was great.
"Koda, is it not good this time?"
Korda looked at his embarrassed subordinates, and then at his equally broken armor, "Yes, I met difficult guys to deal with, and many people died, but I also killed those three powerful elves. ”
Koda looked at the male elf again, "You also have to be more careful, the deeper the elf, the more difficult it is to deal with, if you are careless, it is easy to die." ”
Alondo smiled calmly and quickly led the rest of the elves out of the city on the avian lizard.
Korda frowned and looked at the elven team in the distance, "Who are these arrogant elves?" ”
Luke knew that Korda had been out for two months this time, and he didn't know a lot about the city.
"They are all elves who surrendered to us from various elven villages this year, and they were arranged in the city and several legions at first, but later found that they couldn't beat them and were not very obedient, so they gathered the surrenderers of various units together."
"According to the prophet's order, they will be rewarded for their meritorious deeds, and the avian lizards they ride and the clothes and weapons on their bodies are all exchanged for killing elves."
"Koda, I'll take you to the hospital, and the prophet has transferred another team of military doctors."
Luke saw that Koda's men were all weak, and quickly ended the conversation.
Koda soon said no more, and took his men to the infirmary to treat his injuries.
The sharing of human intelligence is also shared with the elves who take refuge.
Alondo wasn't the first male elf to surrender, nor was he the last.
The Star Legion has proven itself to be strong, and in addition to some of the teams that are still harassing and encroaching on the outer tribes, many medium-sized and large villages have been conquered by the new elves and wizards to avoid senseless casualties.
In addition, the wizards of the kingdoms of Io and Gran have gradually come out of hiding to serve the Star Legion.
In the City of Dawn, hundreds of wizards and more than 4,000 barbarian warriors were gathered, as well as tens of thousands of logisticians gathered by the Land of Stars and various countries.
Before capturing the Elven Court, Lawrence had already gained the allegiance of hundreds of Elven warriors.
There are no 50,000 elves in the entire Green Forest Kingdom, and there are still a large number of half-elves and a small number of humans here.
The surrendered elves are a group of dangerous elements who have broken free from the control of the queen and freed themselves from the constraints of the elves' old ideas, and this group of elves, after being armed by a superior system and productivity, is like a dagger piercing the heart!
Surrender the captives, give them money, food, and treatment, so that they no longer fight for the queen, but for themselves.
Lawrence still didn't get close to the battlefield, and he didn't urge others to fight.
But more and more elves are joining the Star Legion, some willing to continue fighting in exchange for a better life, some visiting human cities, and some going to Stella to live a quiet life.
In autumn, even though the forest is still vast and vast, a year's worth of human effort has not reduced the forest by one percent.
But there were a third fewer elves inside.
Alondo killed thousands of elves, and all of them fled to the royal court.
***
In the twelfth year of the new calendar, it is the beginning of winter
"You have to go through a war of blood and fire to understand the preciousness of peace, especially for long-lived elves."
Lawrence didn't want the war to end too quickly, and this generation of elves would continue the peace for many years, so he had to fight a large-scale war to establish his dominance completely.
If you don't fight, just rely on the slow development to encroach on the Green Forest Kingdom, and there will definitely be a lot of unsober-minded reincarnation factions in the future.
Stella said, "I'm afraid it won't work, the elven legion led by Alondo is already about to reach the royal court." ”
"I know." Lawrence's face was solemn.
Usually ignoring these things, but ignoring the terrifying lethality of a pure elven team, especially a team of pure-blood wizards!!
The surrendered army fought separately under the Queen, did not communicate much, and some even worked hard.
After receiving a formal education under Lawrence, he really became an ace army.
Their strength is extremely terrifying, and fighting elves is as easy as a barbarian warrior beating a pig for three months.
Wizards are originally the top combat force in this world, a group of wizards who have received combat training and know how to go out collectively, and at the same time keep up with logistics and treatment, no country can stop it, and the dragon will kneel when it comes!
Even Lawrence's side can't beat this kind of top-level legion.
Sariel was very curious, "Who is this Alondo?" Why is he so powerful, he has been able to defeat the Elven Court in less than a year? ”
Lawrence was extremely bored, busy with the affairs of the Ice Land and the Snow Mountain Castle all day long, and because of the incomparably troublesome transmission of information, he didn't find out about this horror thing until recently!
Heidi quickly explained to Saliel about Alondo's elven legions.
After hearing this, Sariel and Kehalan and the others all showed shocked expressions.
"No wonder, it's an elven legion..."It was only then that Keharan realized that Lawrence had such an army under his command.
Dana didn't say a word, she knew very well that even if she had a noble and powerful bloodline, she would only be able to escape when she encountered the pure-blood wizard army led by Alondo.
The only end is to be torn apart.
Except for the legion led by Lawrence, no elf could stop this legion of pure-blooded wizards with an average age of 100 years.
Delenn said solemnly, "I have always felt that Lawrence's Ice Warriors are the nemesis of wizards, especially wizards. ”
"But now I suddenly remembered that the same number of wizards are the most terrifying group of people!"
A wizard can easily beat a group of witches, and most of the wizards' abilities are not too strange, they are basically combat talents!
Sariel wondered, "Why didn't the Elven Queen raise these armies herself?" ”
Lawrence sighed, "The Elven Queen can't be cultivated, this kind of wizard army can only be cultivated by our country's system and national strength." ”
"If it were another country, there would be no other legion to suppress this wizard legion, they would either play on their own or blow themselves up to attack the entire system."
"The Elven Queen doesn't have the ability to suppress this kind of crazy team, and she doesn't want to make this terrifying bomb to put around."
"We're different here, I have an extremely large army and followers, these wizards are afraid of me, and they don't have the ability to deal with the thousands of elite warriors around me."
"They have all experienced the unpleasant experience of being rounded up by the Legion, and they know what it will mean to disobey my orders and will."
"And food, clothing, shelter, and transportation are all under my logistical control, so only I can build this kind of terrorist legion."
"They can't even eat wheat under the elven queen, but I can make them drink wine and eat meat every meal! They never show mercy when they kill elves! ”
No elves had ever been able to team up a group of siloed wizards.
Lawrence fills this gap by bringing together powerful predators who should have acted alone, and using their abundant resources to keep them from killing each other and focusing on external plunder.
Lawrence was not afraid that this legion would get out of control, and their logistics would be in his own hands.
Disobedient elves, this legion will be solved by itself.
Lawrence was mainly troubled by the fact that with this legion, the war ended too quickly and many of the old elven ideas could not be broken.
Elves who have experienced war will oppose war, and now a group of male witch elves rely on war to ascend to power, completely deviating from Lawrence's original intention.
Originally, it was a war between humans and elves, but later out of kindness and humanity, a group of elves accepted the surrender, and as a result, these male elves learned advanced ideas after joining the army, and quickly broke out with powerful destructive power.
"Let Alondo take the elven legion to the southern battlefield!"
Lawrence quickly made a decision, "I can't let the elves and elves kill each other, I'll take care of the rest of the battle myself!" ”
"Inform Beoff that there is a temporary truce for the New Year!"
"I'll go over in person next year!"
Lawrence doesn't pull those elven warriors in Alondo anymore, these more than twenty pure-blooded male warriors can kill all the last 20,000 elves in the royal court!
Catherine is well aware of the terrifying strength of this pure-blood boy band.
"Let the elven legion go to the south or the east, you can't let them come back!" Catherine looked at Lawrence nervously and solemnly reminded, "They are too dangerous!" ”
Lawrence disagreed, "It is because of your fearful thoughts that their power has been suppressed." ”
"It's not a bad thing to have them come to the Frozen Lands, it helps them understand how powerful and unique I am."
Lawrence admits that this army is indeed dangerously hot, but he is not without the strength to control them.
"It is indeed a good idea to let them go to the east and south, but before that I will meet with them, they should meet the masters of this continent, so that when they go to the south and the east, my prestige can be spread." (End of chapter)
