1370 The flames of war (1)
The battle at the Ancar pass lasted for nearly a day, and the Eternal Empire was finally defeated.
There were corpses everywhere near the mountain pass. The flames were still burning, and the huge wreckage of the armed airship was billowing with smoke!
...In this battle, a total of fifteen armed airships from the Eternal Empire were shot down. All the passengers in the airships were killed, and the total number of people was close to five thousand!
The airships in the air suffered heavy casualties, and the ground forces suffered even more. According to the post-war Statistics, more than 7000 soldiers were killed and countless wounded. The entire front of the Ancar mountain pass had been covered with blood.
Compared to the Eternal Empire, which suffered heavy losses, the defending Earl domain suffered fewer casualties. There were less than 1000 of them.
Matt Damon was extremely excited when he learned of the results of the battle. He held a grand banquet that day to celebrate this exciting victory!
As for the Eternal Empire’s Army, which had charged to the mountain pass and was ready to occupy count matdamon’s territory, their morale had suffered a huge blow.
Because of the head-on attack at the Ancar pass, the Legion Commander had no choice but to temporarily slow down the attack plan and wait for the next order from the royal family.
At the same time, they were also considering whether to continue the attack. However, most people were against it. After all, the losses in this battle were too heavy, and no one could easily bear it.
This was only the first battle. Once they entered the Count’s territory, there would definitely be more rebel soldiers waiting for them.
At the same time, they also realized that the Earl’s Army, equipped with new weapons, had surpassed the Eternal Empire in terms of combat power. If they couldn’t find a solution as soon as possible, the Eternal Empire’s situation would become more and more unfavorable as the war continued!
The news of the tragic war had reached the flame Empire and the radiant Empire as soon as it ended. While they were shocked, they also became more vigilant of the Holy Dragon City.
Count Mark Damon wasn’t very powerful, but after being equipped with Holy Dragon city’s weapons, he was able to defeat the Eternal Empire’s elite army. This was enough to prove how powerful the Holy Dragon city’s weapons were.
Especially those weapons that could easily shoot down the armed airships, which made the three empires feel a strong sense of crisis.
In less than half a month, more than twenty armed airships had been shot down by the Holy Dragon City. This was a terrible loss that the three great empires had never suffered in the past hundred years!
If the three great empires launched an attack on the Holy Dragon City, how would they defend against such a terrifying weapon attack?
This matter made the three empires extremely worried, but they couldn’t find an effective solution in a short time. The only thing they could do was to strengthen the protective shield of the armed airships.
However, this would greatly reduce the internal space of the armed airship, which would lead to a corresponding reduction in the number of ammunition and passengers.
Although it would still cost him some mobility, it was nothing compared to the increase in defense.
In addition to modifying the original armed airships, the three empires had already begun to design and build a super-small airship. They would try their best to pursue an advantage in speed in an attempt to fight against the Holy Dragon city’s drones.
Of course, in the short term, these super-small airships could not be equipped for combat. Even if the airship manufacturing factories of the three empires worked overtime, it would take at least a month to produce them.
The three great empires could afford to wait, but they could not relax their defenses against the Great Wall of Miracles. Hence, when the internal war of the Eternal Empire began, the armies of the flame Empire and the radiant Empire had arrived at the Great Wall of Miracles at the same time to guard against the Holy Dragon city’s invasion.
The three great empires were in a state of turmoil. News of the impending war spread everywhere. Various hidden forces also took the opportunity to jump out, making the situation even more tense.
Just as the people of the three great empires focused their attention on the Great Wall of Miracles, the orc Alliance, which was located on the other side of the continent, suddenly sent troops, making the situation on the continent even more complicated.
Tens of thousands of cavalrymen from the orc Alliance charged straight into the radiant Empire like lightning. In just one day, they had conquered three cities and smoke rose everywhere they passed.
The radiant Empire was shocked and quickly mobilized their troops to stop them. The two sides then engaged in a fierce battle. For a time, it was difficult to tell who was winning.
With the Holy Dragon city’s support, the orc Alliance’s weapons and equipment were not inferior, especially the orc’s Air Cavalry troops. They caused great casualties to the radiant Empire’s ground troops. The longer the battle lasted, the greater the radiant Empire’s losses.
After the orc Alliance had tasted the benefits of the radiant Empire’s battle, they immediately launched an invasion on the other two empires. The overwhelming number of orc soldiers was like a sea wave, continuously pouring into the two empires ‘territories!
At this moment, other than the Morning Star Empire, the other four great empires on the continent had all been caught in the flames of war. Once this terrifying war that would affect the entire continent started, it would not end so easily in a short period of time!
In order to avoid the war, countless people fled from the border and were imprisoned in refugee camps by the three empires to prevent a greater crisis within the Empire.
Under such a situation where the soldiers were in a state of panic, rumors about the land of exile began to spread across the continent, and more and more people of the three great empires learned about it.
The rumors constantly mentioned that the land of exile was vast and sparsely populated, with a large area of idle land. Although it used to be a barren land, it had begun to gradually return to normal. Now, as long as one lived there, they would definitely be able to obtain a large piece of land that belonged to them.
There were also rumors that said that there was a huge city in the banished Lands. It was extremely prosperous and powerful. Even the three great empires combined would not be a match for it.
Right now, a large number of soldiers had gathered at the Great Wall of Miracles to guard against the possibility of an attack from the enemy!
However, that city had no intention of starting a war, so even if the war was raging on the continent, the other party showed no signs of making a move.
The contents of the rumors were vivid, especially among the refugees of the three empires. Almost everyone knew about these rumors.
With the encouragement of people with ulterior motives, the refugees affected by the war became more and more concerned about the news from the banished land. Some refugees who had lost their homes even decided to go to the banished land to see if it was as beautiful as the rumors said!
In a situation where the Empire had no time to take care of them, if the refugees did not actively save themselves, they could only wait for death.
There were not many refugees who were willing to do so, and most of them were in a wait-and-see state, hoping to return home after the war was over.
For the refugees who intended to go to the land of exile, they had no lack of mockery and ridicule, because this matter was by no means as simple as imagined.
After all, the land of exile was too far away. At the same time, there was the heavily guarded miracle Great Wall. It was not an easy task to reach there.
Just as the refugees were disappointed and gave up on the idea, mysterious figures began to appear in the refugee camp. They secretly contacted the refugees and promised to take them to the land of exile.
Many of the escapees were skeptical, but there were also some escapees who could not live on and chose to follow the mysterious man.
After they left one night, they never appeared in the refugee camp again.
As the war became more and more intense, the three empires lost more and more land. The refugees who were still watching finally made up their minds. They would either leave with the mysterious man or rush to the center of the Empire with their families. Even the military could not stop them all.
