690 Battle of the Golden Four Pillars (7)

The morning air is so fresh and beautiful, the rising sun, the ten thousand rays of light sprinkled on this fertile land, the autumn sun shines on people's bodies, there is a very comfortable feeling. But the fat man was not in a good mood, and early in the morning he set out from Amira with one hundred and twenty carefully selected cavalry to prepare for the east into Paraven.

All you can see along the way are ruined walls, uninhabited, only the bleak river flowing quietly, as if telling the story of a recent incident. As the richest area of Ryerdian, it is rich in products and the most densely populated.

However, because of the tug-of-war with the Dongting people in the past year, the corpses were all over the field, and the sea of blood was flying, especially the main force of the three knights led by Prais, and the tragic tug-of-war with the 40,000 Dongting cavalry in Ruibo almost completely destroyed several areas centered on Ruibogen.

After the war, the people suffered and the population plummeted. Later, Rui Erdian was defeated, and Dongting launched a massacre, claiming not to let go of even a stone, and finally created a scene of thousands of miles of people in this area.

Although many Falcon Guards cavalry are also warriors who have experienced many bloody battles, they are silent in their hearts when they see the broken weapons that can be seen everywhere on the roadside, the military flags that have not yet completely decayed, and the white bones that are faintly exposed. The guide leading the way in front of him was a local, who was even more silent, his eyes flashing with numbness

"No matter whether the war is won or lost, it is always the civilians who suffer" The fat man had a faint feeling in his heart, the war here had just dissipated, and new news came from the Yeruige defense line, under the deliberate drive of the Dongting cavalry, a large number of refugees from the occupied area in the north of Ruierdian poured into the Paraven defense line, according to conservative estimates, there were about 700,000 refugees, this number not only scared Rui Erdian Kyoto enough, but even the fat man also heard a little trembling

It's just that the two sides think differently, this year's drought is widespread in the south of the mainland, and the grain harvest in many places is out of harvest, and the same is true for Ruierdian, which can still rely on grain-producing areas such as Ribogen in the north in previous years.

But this year, not only most of the north was lost, but the largest grain-producing area was beaten into a wasteland, and now even Parabun, Kyoto, is also in short supply of food prices, and suddenly faced with 700,000 mouths to eat, the royal family of Ruierdian in addition to despair, is to drive this group of displaced people to the south according to the methods of previous years, but now the south is in the midst of hunger and violence*, once these 700,000 displaced people enter the south, the kingdom of Ruierdian will be completely finished

The anxious Ruierdian royal family was the first to think of the wealthy Falcon Dynasty next to it, which is the richest country on the mainland, and it is also a big grain producer, although there is a drought this year, but on the whole it is a bumper harvest, which is the result of the fat man's insistence on vigorously developing water conservancy and irrigation facilities, and hurriedly sent people to the fat man's help, and asked the fat man to go to Paravon to participate in the latest emergency meeting to discuss the disposal of the 700,000 displaced people

For these 700,000 displaced people, the fat man is indeed a little moved, and now the population of the entire Falcon Dynasty has just exceeded 10 million people, and the three northern counties that have just been accepted from Rui Erdian have suffered a sharp decline in population due to the war, less than one-third of the original.

As a mining industry that consumes population resources very much, agriculture needs enough population to support, although the strategy of moving some steppe people from the Kujiit has been set, but this is still thin in the population base, if you can eat all the 700,000 displaced people, it can just fill the loss of population in the three northern counties

On the second day, Yang Shufeng entered the periphery of Paravon, and the scene here was even more tragic. Many once-bustling cities, the alluvial plains of the world, once home to nearly three million people, are now in ruins

Even the river that runs through the city is almost clogged with all sorts of debris because no one has dredged it. The city was filled with an unpleasant stench of decay, and there were still corpses hanging from the charred trunks that had not yet completely decomposed.

This is the result of the revenge of the Dongting people at the beginning, because the princess of the royal court was captured, and during the negotiation, she was insulted by the negotiation envoy of Rui Erdian, and a bloody storm swept the entire Paraven Plain.

Within three days, the hooves of the Eastern Court cavalry turned several cities near Yerui Pavilion into a bloody hell.

It was an extremely brutal three days, more than 80,000 people were slaughtered, more than 40 luxuriant villages and towns were completely wiped off the map, and the scimitars of the Dongting people shocked the entire continent.

No matter how stoic the fat man is, he doesn't dare to look at this hell on earth for a long time. In those ruins, there is still a dilapidated military flag standing tall, that is the military flag of the former Ruierdian army, like a rag torn into pieces, this continent overlord who has been shocking the continent for hundreds of years, just like this battle flag, is shattered and miserable

With a heavy heart, the fat man left the deserted town, which was already empty, and spent the night in the wilderness, and continued on his journey the next day. After crossing the Longkilles River, where there was a fierce battle, the area ahead can finally be seen inhabited, although some are ruined and withered, but at least you can still see the living,

At the same time, when I entered the Parabun ground in Kyoto, I saw the soldiers of the Rui Erdian Army patrolling, and the people on the side of the road gradually increased, and I finally saw that there were taverns and inns and the like, and there were some pedestrians and merchants coming and going, but compared with Vikia, it still seemed too desolate and too desolate.

The horse's hooves were flying, and the falcon cavalry in hideous black armor rode majestically from the avenue, attracting many passers-by to look sideways.

The sun at noon in August was poisonous and spicy, and the lazy fat man was sweating profusely, and sat down to drink water in a tavern on the side of the mountain road.

"It's really a narrow road."

The fat man's face was slightly cold, and a fine light flashed in his eyes, and he saw a group of Ruierdian knights walking in with a handsome young nobleman. This man is handsome,

Wearing extremely luxurious clothes, coupled with the guard knight wearing a red cloak next to him, he looked noble, but behind this young nobleman, there was a familiar red figure with a graceful posture

It was an extremely cold and arrogant, cold and pretty like a flower on a snowy mountain,

It was Tyrenuris, who escaped from the Tyre family during the Vikia Civil War, and after that mountain trail, I heard that this brother who had been with him all along,

Could it be that this young man is Tirnarant, the fat man's eyes narrowed slightly, and he made a gesture to the guards resting next to him to prepare for battle, in this narrow mountain pass, meeting the patriarch of the Tyre family who hates him to the bone, it is not the fate or fate of the other party, this time it can only be regarded as the other party's bad luck

I haven't seen her for a year, and Till Neuris seems to have matured a lot, and she looks more delicate and moving, but there is a deep sadness between her eyebrows, as if she has never smiled.

She jumped off the horse's back with a sturdy body, and out of the corner of her eye, she immediately caught a glimpse of a fat man with a stupid face, whose body seemed to be hit by an acupoint, standing there stiffly

"It's You"

Tirneuris's face looked very strange, and her hand immediately touched the long sword on her horse, and she wanted to charge, but she immediately realized it again, hesitated and retreated, and whispered, "You...... Will you be here?"

"Tyr, do you know this man?"

Then the young nobleman's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he was a little unhappy that Tyreuris knew this fat man who was not good-looking, because he was in a bit of a hurry when he set off, and the fat man just took one from the guard camp casually, which was better than ordinary chain mail, but compared to the exquisite chain mail of high nobles, it was a little inadequate, and with a greasy and slippery face, it was really a bit similar to a mercenary

He could see that this lowly mercenary made Til Nuriss very nervous, and the always cold and arrogant Fire Rose was afraid of men, which was really rare news, could it be that this man had hurt Til Neuris?

"You're a nobleman, don't say kind things to these lowly guys if there's no need"

The young nobleman waved his hand to several Praetorian Guard knights behind him, looked the fat man up and down with contempt, the corners of his mouth pursed, and said in an extremely disdainful tone, "I killed a mercenary on this mountain road, in this era of war and chaos, it is really a common thing."

"Mercenary ......"

The fat man laughed instead of being angry, and in a burst of haha,

The guards around "Boom" thought it was a signal from the fat man, and they all drew their shiny Samor swords, surrounding the young nobleman and several pale-faced Janissary Knights

"You, you're going to me, but I'm an officer of the Praetorian Guard," the young nobleman shouted with a knight's sword in his hand, and from his trembling sword-gripping hand and his face, which was as white as paper, he could see that he was exactly the kind of flower that he had raised in a greenhouse since childhood, and he had seen such a formation there

"Stop" The fat man drank the approaching footsteps of the guards, and from the name of Tirneuris, the young man in front of him should not be Tyrnarant, but probably Tirneris's suitor

"He's my fiancé, Baron Rillasstein of the Praetorian Guard," Tyrenius bowed her head and whispered with an embarrassed face, "My brother has asked to marry the Lillas family"

"Oh, I don't want such a big event as a family marriage, and the Tyre family agreed?" The fat man's face was slightly stunned, and he put on a surprised and inexplicable expression, but in fact, he secretly sneered in his heart, "Maybe, don't the people of the Tyre family want to live?"

"You ......" Tirneuris's face turned slightly pale, *** her delicate ten fingers clenched into fists, this shameless guy is still as hateful as ever

She will not mean the words fat man, now the Tyre family has long been controlled by the fat man, what is the difference between the so-called family consent and the fat man's consent
