Chapter 320 The King is About to Return

The messenger in front of me is by no means the only one, nor is he the first to come to see the king;

Before him, there were many high-level gryphon knights and even core gryphon knights who personally led the team eastward, just to avoid any unknown accidents as much as possible.

But after that, not only did the country not receive the proper reply from the king, but even the messengers who came and went never returned.

Before meeting Kessel in person, this confidant thought that the messengers were left in the far east to supplement the frontline's combat power;

Although he was not dissatisfied with the King of the Rhine's neglect of domestic affairs, he never thought about it in a worse direction, because he simply did not think that several teams would encounter a scenario where "no one could escape".

But now, the king has made a guarantee in the name of Father God, saying that he has never received any bad news from the rear so far;

He said that although messengers did arrive, all they sent were indifferent news, and they set off back to the country after delivery.

This is indeed the case, otherwise how could the King of the Rhine be so stubborn and choose to continue fighting this loss-making war with no end in sight?

So, where does the problem occur?

Who are those messengers who come and go, where do they come from, and where do they end up?

These questions made them feel a little creepy. Even a powerful and arrogant King of the Rhine felt a deep panic in the information that did not correspond to each other at all.

Perhaps, somewhere in the south, there is a prison filled with prisoners, which can barely answer the questions raised by the King of the Rhine;

Or perhaps, dreams and some cunning 'transformed angels' can also give him subsequent answers.

But for now, he could only choose to suppress his uneasiness first and think about what to do next.

Now that things have developed to this point, it seems that the war in front of him can no longer continue. He decided to withdraw his troops and return to the country, turning around to deal with the rebels first, so that these slaves can once again recall the bloody lessons of their ancestors.

.

But before that, there is actually one more thing that must be carried out.

The original decision to 'continue fighting' was not just the King of the Rhine's own will. Father God's promise was the most critical factor in it. Moreover, those doubts that had arisen before were also urgently needed to turn to Father God for help.

Therefore, a sacrifice for brave warriors began to be prepared, and its participants included not only the gloomy-looking Kessel himself, but also the thirteen princesses and matrons, who were somewhat guilty but not truly afraid.

The latter had no doubts about what the angel said, and believed that even if there was indeed a response during this sacrifice, its source would never be the 'false god' himself.

But no matter what everyone thinks here, this sacrifice is still being carried out at the moment, and there are many things in it that even the angels have no way of knowing.

For example, at this moment, whether King of the Rhine's prayers directly turned into invisible and immaterial thoughts, or whether some immaterial and immaterial medium carried his prayers is an ambiguous and unsolved mystery, but this does not prevent

Something is bound to happen.

~~~~~~

A little far behind the new royal capital of the Rhine, a solitary mountain more than two thousand meters long and one thousand meters high stood abruptly;

Just a few years ago, this mountain was a "bald place" with nothing but earth and rocks. Dark and ugly yellow was its main color at that time, and few plants could be seen.

But in recent years, some of the matrons in the royal capital seemed to have reached an agreement, and everyone fell in love with the forest together, and began to dislike the unsightly bare mountains.

Not just talking, they also sent their slaves to work in the mountains. By constantly digging holes and planting trees, they used a lot of labor in a few years to turn it into the sparkling green it is today;

The other Rhine people didn't say anything because they also thought it would look better this way.

At this moment, the distant thoughts arising from prayers rose from an invisible place, and extended all the way to the west at an extremely fast speed, finally arriving and burrowing into this solitary mountain that had turned into a green ocean.

Then, under the influence of the layer upon layer of invisible network channels that were also woven by thoughts, when it broke through the invisible 'space' that extended to the 9th floor, after passing through countless illusory kings, it came to its true place.

When pointing to the 'destination';

The actual meaning of the content expressed has already undergone some subtle but extremely critical changes in a series of complex processes such as deceleration, twisting, and steering.

'Come back, you did a great job.'

In the Far East, Kessel received a response from Father God, but the meaning left him a little confused. In the end, he could only figure it out on his own.

He did not pursue the failure of the war, but attributed it to the kindness and generosity of God the Father;

Not giving instructions because of the rebellion at the rear is because God the Father doesn’t care about the clown;

By not answering his previous doubts, Father God wanted him to work hard to solve the problem on his own.

And out of a certain belief, and also out of a certain unimaginability, Kessel trusted the results of his own imagination, so he started the process of withdrawing his troops and returning.

Therefore, under his order, the main army began to gradually evacuate the camp, and moved slowly westward. The servant army had to be busy collecting the supplies to be taken away, and then followed up with large and small bags.

Moreover, Kessel, a man of integrity, did not leave without saying goodbye like Princess Fang. Before evacuating, he specially summoned the frontline commander of the Mammoth Army and personally informed him of what his side had done.

resolution

In this summons, Kessel covered up all the changes that had occurred in the country. He attributed all the reasons for the withdrawal to "lack of benefits," "long time consuming," "insufficient food and grass," etc. He only talked about the kingdom's response to the war.

Already feeling tired;

Afterwards, no matter how much the Mammoth Lord tried to persuade him to stay, or how much he promised to provide further benefits and food, he firmly stated that ‘this is the final decision and cannot be changed’.

Therefore, under the very troubled sight of the Mammoth General, the army that had been organized and organized set off on its way back to the west.

However, not long after the Rhine Army withdrew, the Mammoth Legion returned in full under emergency orders from the country, and then, together with the rest of the army, launched the strictest liquidation and martial law in the country.

Thus, the Far Eastern War, which had been going on for many years, came to an end in a confused and silent manner, leaving only a ruins behind, a land soaked with blood and flames, and quietly changing

The political structure of the Far East, and the underground root system that has spread to the entire region.

Let’s first press the button on the Far East Federation and the Twin Kingdoms. Not to mention the various turmoils that happened in the Far East Federation and the Twin Kingdoms. For the Rhine people who have left early, the journey ahead and the misfortune that awaits them at the end are far from satisfactory.

Far beyond what I imagined at the moment.

Before leaving the Far East, everything was actually easy to say.

In the past, strong walls and clear fields effectively slowed down the progress of the invading army, and to a certain extent, also brought the war to its current dismal end;

But at this time, it also prevented the Federation itself from making any big waves here, in this land that had been burned to ashes.

Therefore, after encountering and destroying several unlucky 'blind' guerrillas, the Rhine Army successfully left the Far East and entered the buffer zone, and then experienced the blockage from nature.

Floods, swamps, mudslides, this place has become a veritable marsh country;

The military roads that cost millions of slaves and countless corpses have long disappeared, and the huge army that already needs to be divided to move forward must be divided even more to be able to barely make it.

.

Kessel looked at the remaining grain in his hand, and then at the extremely bad environment in front of him. At this moment, he felt an extremely headache. He did not think that his army could really get out of this land before starving to death.

In short, while gathering the food of the servant army and the slave army to ensure that the main force of the tribe can be used on the way, he also sent a large number of griffon teams to carry out reconnaissance missions in various directions.

Some of them set out to the west. They were not only responsible for exploring the accessible roads, but also to understand the living conditions of the deserter camps along the way. It is possible that part of the food would be used to slaughter and plunder the deserter camps.

The other part was sent to the north and south. The sudden withdrawal of the Seventeenth Princess made the King of Rhine have some associations, so he wanted to know about the situation in Fang's country. The reason why troops were sent to the north and south for reconnaissance was because he wanted to see his allies.

Can I 'borrow' some food there to deal with the emergency?

The group of griffons was not flying very slowly. Depending on the depth, replies came from three directions one after another.

First of all, the westbound reconnaissance group found a feasible road. Although their carrying capacity is not very good, they can still travel if they are divided into dozens of groups.

Secondly, the deserter camp did have food, but its security was also very tight. The reconnaissance team led by the core citizens broke into the camp, but a large part of the team consisting only of high-level griffin cavalry failed.

Thirdly, the Mammoth Kingdom is also suffering from severe drought;

Within its territory, there seems to be no established rebels further south, but there are already scenes of refugees and starving people everywhere. Although the area bordering the buffer zone is still relatively humid, some of the deserter camps here have been moved.

I went there, so I was yelled at at this time;

Finally, when the news from the Fang's domestic investigation also arrived one after another, a group of Rhine executives fell into deep thought in the paradoxical sense of déjà vu.

The extreme cold first invaded its northern territory, and then swept across the entire country all the way south. Not only did it kill a large number of livestock and freeze large areas of land, it also caused the tribes affiliated with the northern territory to migrate southward on a large scale;

But the situation in the south is not very good, it can even be said to be worse. Although when the cold wave passes through the central part and finally reaches the south, its power has been weakened a lot, allowing the south to retain part of its output capacity;

But this half-hearted situation of "barely producing food" led to even worse "man-made disasters" in the future. The forced conquests carried out by the main tribe and the plunder from the northern people were staged one after another, which made

The people of the South suffered from unrest;

The plundering of the Northern People was naturally a last resort after being jealous, but the former had a somewhat strange origin. It seemed that because Queen Fang was stabbed to death, princesses of all generations in the country started to fight for the throne on their own, which ultimately prompted them to

Continuous conscription and looting were carried out in various places;

Among them is the 17th Princess, the former commander-in-chief of the front line. She has occupied a large area of ​​land and subjects in the East. At this time, she is busy fighting a civil war with the other sisters and aunts.

All in all, the reasons and even the subsequent development methods are different from the situation in the Rhine Kingdom, but the various forces in the country have indeed played tricks.

And everything happened too suddenly. Although there was no such thing as the so-called "True God Faith" in China, the King of the Rhine still instinctively smelled the smell of conspiracy.

This made Kessel even more eager to return to the country. He planned to use the most elite force to break through all the obstacles along the route and go to the country as quickly as possible to clean up the mess.

Therefore, after collecting almost all the remaining food in the army, the King of the Rhine took his main army of nearly 450,000 and set off first. The rest of the slave and servant armies were led by a small number of main soldiers and princesses.

Moving slowly.

Then, his plan did succeed. After eliminating the drag of slave soldiers and servant armies, the already extremely capable main army was able to move forward at a faster speed;

Along the way, he continuously sent out griffon legions to kill and plunder. On the one hand, he broke through the strange camps blocking the road and seized their food. Then, with the help of such supply replenishment methods, he finally arrived at the border east of the country.

's edge zone.

By this time, it was clear that the land was in front of him, but Caesar calmed down his anxiety.

Instead of diving into the border, he temporarily stopped, set up royal tents and military camps at the border, and once again dispatched large-scale air power to conduct more in-depth reconnaissance missions across the border.

As a result, a series of pieces of information came to his ears.

The successive defeats in the domestic wars allowed the so-called 'True God Sect' to truly establish a foothold in areas outside the royal capital;

If the left-behind matrons had not keenly noticed the abnormality and ordered the peripheral clans to retreat to the capital area as soon as possible, and the recipients unexpectedly cooperated and chose to obey the orders, otherwise these clans would have been surrounded by enemy forces at this time.

, falling into a state of isolation and helplessness.

This was a huge loss that had never been suffered before in the clan alliance era. Nearly 70% of the entire country's territory actually fell into the hands of inferior species. This made Kessel feel deeply ashamed;

But at the same time, such an incredible situation really prompted him to face up to the enemy. Through subsequent investigations and reports from the air cavalry coming from the direction of the royal capital, he learned how elite his opponent was.

The transportation network, which was extremely strange and had a profound impact on the development of the war, also attracted his special attention.

After all this information was compiled, the King of the Rhine felt extremely lucky for his previous caution. If he underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly due to his inherent impression, the consequences would be disastrous.

Of course, the situation in front of us is already extremely troublesome.

~~~~~~~

The aerial reconnaissance force clearly saw that the enemy had gathered more than 7 million coalition troops in the fortress group and was waiting, and seemed to want to fight a decisive battle relying on the fortress;

However, the King of the Rhine was not prepared to follow the opponent's preset path obediently. Due to special reasons such as "return" and "no supply line", our side could completely bypass most of the fortresses and only need to forcibly capture a few scattered ones.

, the road to the royal capital can be opened;

But what is even more troublesome is the situation that needs to be faced later. Whether it is the pursuit of the fortress army after the reaction, or the encirclement of the enemy forces from other directions in the front, they can all take shape quickly under that strange road, and continue to take shape.

If in the past, Kessel, who had hundreds of thousands of pure Rhine troops, would never have had even the slightest worry because of this, and would have only regarded the opponent as a country chicken and a dog that broke away in a rush;

But something is different now. Fundamental changes have taken place in these inferior species. Whether it is the spiritual or material level, they are very different from the past.

Therefore, the King of the Rhine decided to be more cautious and concentrate the power of his subordinates, so he summoned the royal capital and ordered those who stayed behind to send out enough main clan legions, and also accompanied by sufficient subsidiary legions and slave legions. He wanted

Use a sound strategy to win this battle.

When the order was sent to the royal capital, the people in power who stayed behind naturally did not dare to be masterful. They reported the situation to the more distant east through the channel of divine grace and sent it to the hands of the princesses;

Then, the princesses sent a consultation to the angels

They believe that the gods and the churches of the gods will not always maintain today's alliances, and will definitely turn against each other in the future due to resources such as faith;

By that time, the Church of the Mother Goddess, which is now too powerful and has even stronger potential, will definitely face the common hostility of other sects, and the way to arouse the anger of ordinary believers will be very simple. Just emphasize the church

The 'Rhine' identity of the backbone will suffice.

Therefore, they proposed whether they could create a stumbling block now and let this war consume more of the power of the other gods on earth, so as to reduce the pressure they would face in the future.

The 'angels' looked at each other in an unknown place because of this proposal. They secretly glanced at the signs hanging next door, and slapped their foreheads in confusion, but in the end they reported the plan.

Perhaps it is because of the number of believers, perhaps because of the speed of thought transformation, or perhaps to set a tone for future 'sect relations'. No matter which of these considerations, the superiority of 'angels'

Feng finally agreed to the proposal and announced it so that the other 'Angels of the Kingdom of God' could also be prepared.

As for the princesses, they naturally received awards and favors from the angels, and thus began their subsequent operations.

~~~~~~~~

An order was sent to the royal capital from the Far East. After receiving it, the matrons who stayed behind immediately started executing it.

Afterwards, 300,000 die-hard Rhine, three million inherent faith servants, and one million low-value slave regiments were recruited one after another. The reinforcements formed by them set off from the capital area and circled to the Eastern Region.

But this time, the Earth Mother Sect did not provide accurate intelligence support to the allies as it did in the past. It only delayed reporting the news of the "die-hard faction going out on their own". Anyway, after this battle, the alliance is estimated to

It's gone, so it doesn't matter whether they believe it or not.

Under such circumstances, the new reinforcements fought their way through obstacles and swept away all obstacles along the way, arriving at the eastern region of the kingdom in the shortest possible time. They then bypassed the fortresses to the north and arrived within the royal tent.

As a result, the King of the Rhine now has 800,000 master legions and four million slave legions at his disposal. This is definitely a force too powerful to be ignored.
