Text Heaven and earth fission, wolf smoke everywhere_Chapter 0808 The Empire
To the north, more than a hundred miles north of the city of jihad.
This is the largest city in the Empire beyond the Great Wall of Desperation, and it is also the former frontier of the Eternal Heavenly Kingdom.
In fact, the area east of the city of jihad was once a vast wilderness, and in the more than thirty years since the formation of the New World, the northerners have been fighting in the south and the north to open up the wilderness, and the city of holy war is the first city they established in the reclamation activities.
This city was originally called the City of Futu, because it was the blood clan and the white elf clan that opened up this wilderness, and the commanders of the two clans have always had the reputation of the two sides of the Futu, in order to commemorate them, so the reclaimed city is called the city of Futu.
However, in the last beast tide led by the beast king, this is the main battlefield for the northerners to defeat the wild beasts, and it is also here that the forbidden masters of the empire joined forces to kill the beast king and won this great battle, so this place is called the city of holy war - it shows the formation of a situation in which the northerners have gained the upper hand in the struggle against the wild beasts, and it has a very special commemorative significance for the northerners.
......
In the evening, there was silence in the wilderness outside the city.
At this time, it was already autumn, and it was clear that it was time for the autumn harvest, but there was no figure of people harvesting in the large fields, only the cold wind was howling, which sounded a little desolate.
Behind a boulder, a group of only four or five soldiers escorted an unconscious woman to sit quietly on the ground.
Several of the soldiers had multiple tears in their armor, mottled blood everywhere, and even the swords in their hands were full of gaps, and it was obvious that their current situation was not very optimistic.
A few of them didn't light a fire, because lighting a fire at night on this wasteland was a light to reveal their position, and as long as they weren't stupid, they wouldn't do that.
"Wake up! General Ye is awake!"
Suddenly, one of the soldiers shouted with delight, but was quickly glared at by the others.
Only then did the soldiers react, knowing that they had made a mistake - they were in a terrible situation now, and shouting loudly was simply asking for death.
However, after stopping the soldier's shouting, several other soldiers came over with a look of concern.
I saw that the woman who was still sleeping just now had woken up slowly, this woman was Ye Xiaoxiao who had left the desperate Great Wall, and the first thing she asked after waking up was: "How is the Great Wall?
As soon as these words came out, a trace of gloom flashed on the faces of several soldiers, and no one spoke.
Ye Xiaoxiao's heart has gradually sunk to the bottom: "Where am I now, and when is it now?"
"You've been asleep for a month. ”
One of the soldiers lowered his head and said, "General Mills has asked us to feed you the tranquilizer in order to prevent you from doing something irrational on impulse."
We have now retreated to the City of Jihad. ”
Tranquilizing Grass is a sleeping pill for warriors, and it is a very rare grass that grows outside the Great Wall of Desperation, which can make the soul of a warrior fall asleep and fall into deep dormancy for more than a month!
"Damn it......
Why?
I'm also the guardian of the Great Wall, so why don't you let me live and die with the Great Wall. ”
Ye Xiaoxiao hung her head in pain, she finally remembered what happened before she fell asleep, and was silent for a long time before finally saying astringently: "Tell me, what has happened in the past month?"
"From its establishment to the present, the Great Wall of Desperation has been breached for the second time. ”
Two lines of tears flowed from the soldier's eyes: "The middle position of the entire Wind and Snow Castle has been completely breached, and now it is preliminarily estimated that 200,000 wild beasts have rushed into the hinterland of the empire from the position of the breached Wind and Snow Castle, and all the defenders of the Wind and Snow Castle have been killed in battle, and none of them have survived, General Mills...... Martyrdom!"
"Boom", Ye Xiaoxiao's mind went blank for an instant.
It's just gone?
In the past, the robes who ate together in a big pot are gone?
The impact of all this on Ye Xiaoxiao was so great that Ye Xiaoxiao's whole person was in a trance!
Before the city was broken, General Mills sent a cavalry of 1,000 men southward, informing the cities along the way to arrange for the people to retreat, and the soldiers stayed behind for the final struggle. ”
The soldier choked up and said, "General Mills has been guarding the Great Wall of Desperation for nine days, which has bought precious time for the cities, and all the civilians have retreated in time.
The empire also gathered enough military strength at this time.
The watchmen of the other defense areas of the Great Wall of Desperation went south, and the police and defenders of each city all gathered, and in this way, an army of about 300,000 people was organized, and they gathered in the city of holy war, the city that must be passed through to the imperial capital. ”
"The City of Jihad?"
Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up: "So, there are still imperial troops fighting in the Holy War City not far from us?"
So why are we still here?
Go to the City of Holy War, we, as the guards of the Great Wall of Despair, should fight for the Empire until the last moment!!"
"I'm not done yet!"
The soldier raised his voice, "But...... We didn't even defend the city of jihad!!
Just four days ago, the city of holy war was breached.
This time the Wild Beast King is too terrifying, all the armies of the empire have gone south, and the forbidden master has left the empire with the emperor, looking at the huge empire, no one can fight against the Wild Beast King!
Moreover, this Barbarian Beast King has also subdued a lot of taboo-level Barbarian Beasts, I am afraid that they are no less than stones.
So......
Although the imperial army fought very hard in the city of holy war, and in the later stages of the war, even the soldiers were tied to vitality bombs, and once they died in battle, they immediately detonated the corpse and pulled the back of the barbarian beast, but it was still difficult to stop the terrible beast tide, after all, the beast king and the taboo-level barbarian beast were too ferocious, and the imperial army could not resist at all.
In the city of jihad, we have been defeated again.
300,000 troops were wiped out!
For this war, we have already killed 400,000 Imperial soldiers. ”
"We have encountered many wild beasts along the way, and the thousand light cavalry that left the Great Wall of Desperation at the beginning are now only a few of us.
We...... The last watchman of the Empire. ”
The soldier smiled bitterly: "Now, the empire has set up a defensive line in the nine thousand kilometers of the Andes Mountains, and all the people in the areas where wild beasts are raging have withdrawn to the rear of the Andes, at least it is safe.
After receiving the news from us, Lord Taihao has launched a national war mobilization order, all the reserves of the empire have gone into battle, and even the students of this phase of the Guangwu Academy have graduated ahead of schedule to go to the front line as commanders, and all the civilian warriors have joined the army, and even those ethnic groups in the central and eastern regions who have just moved to the north have called on the young and middle-aged people of the clan to join the army, and now more than three million troops have been assembled in the Andes!
This is the last military strength of the Empire, and we will fight to the death against the wild beasts!"
"It is said that the Great Emperor, who was originally going to launch a war of annihilation against the Great Abyss Empire and the Dark Empire, also had to advance after hearing the news.
The opportunity for reunification that the empire had waited for so hard was missed in vain. ”
Speaking of these, the soldier had tears in his eyes, who said that men don't flick when they have tears, just because they didn't get to the sad place, after a moment of silence, the soldier looked at Ye Xiaoxiao very seriously, and said: "Lord Taihao said, you are the daughter of the deceased, Marshal Ye Tianhao is in the south, he can't let you die in the beast tide, so he asked us to escort you to the Andes." ”
"Yes, General Ye, we can't spend it here. ”
The soldier said, "The Watchmen of the Empire have died in battle, so you don't need to follow us to continue to consume!"
You're not like us!
It's not a pity that we're alone, but you still have your family, and your life is still very good, so let's go to the back of the Andes and go back to the imperial capital!"
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't speak, slowly occupied, a miserable smile appeared on her face, looked at the dark sky, and said word by word:
"Winter is coming, and I will watch the Great Wall of Despair from now on, and I will not rest until I die.
Don't return to your hometown, don't fiefdom, live as a guard on the wild border, and die as a war spirit hovering on the border of your homeland.
I will not wear a crown, and I will not fight for honor or disgrace.
I will do my duty and die in my life.
I am the sword in the darkness, the watchman on the Great Wall.
I am the flame against the cold, the light at the dawn.
I am the shield that repels the beasts, the iron thorns that defend the eternal tulips.
I dedicate my life and glory to the Great Wall of Despair, and keep the peace of the four tribes in the north forever.
This is true today, every day. ”
After speaking, she shook off her green hair, stared at a few soldiers around her, and said in a deep voice: "One day is the watchman of the empire, and it will be like this for life!"
Who said that the guards on the Great Wall of Desperation were all killed?
I live, you live!
The Watchmen of the Empire still exist, and we still have a reason to fight!
Walk!
Go to the Andes Defense Line!
When we get there, we'll put on our armor and fight again!"
