The end of April is approaching, and since the land is located in the western region of the central continent, the cultivation time will be more or less affected by the colder environment around it and the climate of the region, but no one can stop the arrival of spring in any case, even after the more fertile land is plunged into war.

Although the seeds of crops that should have been planted in mid-April were delayed for nearly two weeks due to the war in the coastal areas, thanks to the coastal wall forged by miracles, sweat and blood, except for a part of the farmland along the coast, the rest of the fields were planted with crops, and the crops that disappeared along the coast have been replaced by larger and more fertile cultivated land reclaimed inland. Coupled with the agricultural techniques brought by the Empire, the farmers in the Western Regions of the Central Continent believed that as long as the frontline war was won this year, even if it did not change, they would usher in a bumper harvest year.

The people at the bottom are like this, they live simply, and their hearts are also simple, after all, it is not the present of the original world, and the current situation where the sun does not set, or the overall trend of the King Continent, it is not possible for people to enter the era of comprehensive national knowledge, as for those complicated problems, in the eyes of these people, it is good to hand them over to those high-ranking adults, because both these people and those high-level people know the Tao, and they only need to pay taxes honestly and spend the New Year with peace of mind.

But maybe they don't know what to do, those who are their bosses are now also ushering in spring: a large number of laborers, black iron dwarves, and some disabled soldiers who forged swords into plowshares after receiving subsidies from the military department of the sun are withdrawn from the front line, and become the farmers of agriculture, light industry raw materials, mining miners, and builders of the surrounding areas of the city in the Western Regions of the Central Continent. The only nerve-wracking manpower problem in the Western Regions of the Central Continent was solved. However, the material movement of the front line was also under their control, but because of the shrinking of the enemy's offensive area, there were many incidental reductions, and on the whole, the employees of the Ministry of Civil Affairs finally ushered in a "good day" of 9 to 5 and weekends. Of course, no one knows how long it will last...

Compared to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the military headquarters belonging to one of the three official organizations of the Sun Never Setting Empire is not so lucky, although it stands to reason that the shortening of the enemy's offensive should be able to reduce the burden on the military department, but in fact, for this reduction, it can be regarded as dispensable for the Sun Never Set Military Department involved in the management of the battlefield of the three continental plates, and the most important thing is that the time bomb that appeared in the Nizhny Maginot Line has not been defused so far: after a full 1 week, The dwarven forces of the Holy Light Empire, which had attacked along the eastern end of the Nizhny Maginot Line, had not been wiped out so far. And it was already close to the flanking zone that George had planned before, and George's own troops were also fended off in an area 30 miles behind the dwarven legions......

"Draw the bow....put!" At the behest of the centurions, the longbowmen wielding the longbow of the sun never set, thought about the battlefield ahead, throwing arrows ignited by the sunset oil.

"Ah...... Fire! Fire! "Because the Greek fire is very difficult to remove. If the dwarven warriors guarding the ruins are not careful, the fire that adheres to the stone will instantly burrow into the cracks of their armor like terrifying man-eating beetles, turning the mighty dwarven warriors into charcoal. 、

"Damn, fight back! Counterattack! "The hundreds of dwarven warriors stationed in the ruins have not thought of fighting back. While dwarven warriors are good at crafting steel weapons and using these things. But this does not mean that the dwarves are not good at using long-range weapons, in fact, with the sharp eyes of the dwarves, as long as they have a strong crossbow in their hands, then the dwarves will become excellent crossbowmen, just like now, in the roar of the dwarven officers, the dwarves who rely on the ruins as cover will use the steel crossbow in their hands to fight back as soon as they have reloaded.

Unfortunately, the results are not very ideal. Because under the counterattack of sporadic crossbow arrows, only some unlucky soldiers who did not set the sun were killed by arrows. Most of the soldiers who never set the sun were only stabbed by a few punctures, and at most some of the unlucky ones were shot through the thighs and arms and dragged down.

This is because the Sunset Soldiers on the attacking side, especially those who are armed with longbows for long-range fire suppression, not only have the light mountain warfare troops that move faster in front to cover them, but George, who was the supreme general of these troops before this, asked those Sunset Soldiers who were moving alternately to collect a sturdy plank on the way: although the black powder blew all the walls along the way into ruins, there were still complete stone bricks and planks, After all, when the dwarves attacked, the Sunset defenders only had time to take some important materials with them when they left, and the planks and stone bricks that were originally used to build the walls were still in the rear (although because of this, the Sunset reinforcements were slowing down: the dwarven forces that stayed behind in batches also used the defenses they had built and the surrounding ruins to build up defenses after discovering them, and even converted them into recommended trebuchets and trebuchet ammo).

Using these collected planks, the Sunset army was able to create many sturdy wooden baffles in a short period of time to resist the counterattacks of the dwarves, although in the beginning, the dwarves had simple stone throwers, which led to the destruction of many of the stronger baffles, and the soldiers hiding behind the sunset were killed by random arrows immediately after being exposed.

But as the saying goes, "you have a good plan, I have a wall ladder", although the lethality of the stone thrower is quite large, but after all, the wooden baffle made by the sun does not set is not a fake and shoddy product, and the dwarf defenders are using some simple stone throwers, which can throw some head-sized stones out of the wall It is already very good, so there are always some fish that have slipped through the net to use the baffle to advance to a close enough distance, and then set up the can-throwing crossbow produced by the sunset, and destroy those simple corpse throwers one by one with fire, which is the current situation.

"Okay, our men have sealed the door, and the Greek Pyros have arrived in position, and they can carry out the next stage of the mission, and send the flag to let the rear troops enter the front line." When a heavily armored officer in the sunset dodged countless arrows and reached the gate of the small fortress in ruins sealed by a wooden gate, he looked at several Greek firethrowers in Greek plate armor around him, and said to a sunset scout who was leaning against the ruins and gasping for breath.

"Good sir." After swallowing his saliva, the scout first took out the horn on his waist and blew it, and after getting a response from several horns in the surrounding ruins, the scout immediately took out the red and blue flag on his waist, and the comrades in the rear of the team greeted him, and the flag he issued was very simple, only a few words, that is: "Doorway, suppress, unable to break through, request to throw fire oil!" ”

After receiving the order, the soldiers in the rear who received the order to convey the message with the same flag and the same flag, whether they were in the rear repairing and waiting to be put into battle, or just arrived at the sunset longbowmen, who had just bent down and held their knees and gasped, immediately straightened their waists, formed a formation under the command of their centurions, and then trotted to the ruins of the dwarven side of the front line, and began to prepare for throwing the arrows in their hands with fire oil and ignition.

And the lightly armed troops who had stayed on the front line before also loaded their canister crossbows and prepared to shoot.

"Oh abominable sun, they are going to kill them all, brothers, we can't wait to die in the same place, take up the hammer in your hands, today will be the time for us to fight to the death against those hateful sunsets!" Seeing the appearance of the sun never setting, the dwarven commander who had learned the fighting style of the sun never set certainly understood what the sun was not going to do, so he immediately ordered all the dwarven defenders to take up their weapons and move towards the entrance of the ruins after giving a speech to boost morale.

"Put!"

"Rush!" Almost at the same time, the commanders of both sides gave their men the last order of the battle, and at about the same time, the fire arrows in the hands of the soldiers of the sunset and the clay pots that were lit with Greek fire were thrown into the air, turned into shooting stars, and fell into the ruined fortress, turning the fortress into a sea of fire, and the dwarven warriors rushed out of the fortress to fight the soldiers of the sunset to the death............ Of course, the former is inevitable, and the latter is impossible!

"Bump!" Just as the "meteor" fell into the ruins, the small black powder keg placed by the soldiers who never set the sun was detonated after the fuse burned, and the powerful blasting force instantly turned the wooden door into pieces, and even some of the dwarven warriors who had already run to the door were shocked back to the ground because of the power of the explosion, although they were not injured.

Almost a few breaths ago, the Greek Pyro who was lying in ambush behind the door immediately stepped forward, blocked the door with the Greek fire thrower in his hand, and pressed the gate to spray the ignited flames with pressure.

The crowded, like sardines in a can, saw several sunset soldiers and some dark iron pipes suddenly appear in front of them, and before they could swing or throw their war hammers in their hands, their eyes were only a fiery red, and the shouts of killing in their mouths turned into terrifying screams.

When the smell of scorching and vomiting filled the entire battlefield, the soldiers who came from the rear ignored the burning ruins, and the soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield and rescuing the wounded soldiers and dragging them back to their comrades, thought about walking around on both sides, and then what appeared in front of them was a road with no dwarven defenses, a road to the smoke-filled Stanner Fort in front of it, surrounded by countless siege equipment.

However, it was not only these soldiers who were moving forward, in the dense woods around them, a group of soldiers who could not make the sound of stepping also moved forward with the soldiers who never set. (To be continued......)
