- Zhang Tie and two other knights from the Jinyun Kingdom have been stationed in the southern part of the Kalei Mountains for more than a month.
At this time, as a knight of the Weiyi subcontinent, even if he cannot directly go into battle to attack Huanglong and share life and death with the demon army and the demon commander, there are still many things that can be done. Within a period of time, we can still stop some knights from the demons and the Three-Eyed Society from crossing the Kalei Mountains and directly threatening the countries south of the Kalei Mountains.
The Demon Commander, who had suffered two heavy losses from the human race at the gates of Niyin City and outside the City of Ampton, this time adopted a steady advancement strategy of moving forward step by step with the demonized puppets as the vanguard. Under this advancement strategy, The activities of the demons and the knights of the Three-Eyed Society have been relatively stable, with very few rash advances. As a result, the knights on both sides have been able to maintain an evenly matched confrontation for more than a month.
The Demon Commander felt that he was sure of victory, and at this time he was unwilling to take risks with his precious knight resources and the soldiers of the Demon Legion, lest he fall into the traps and pockets set for him by the humans again.
For the Demon Commander, the army of 200 million demonized puppets is enough to level everything. Therefore, the elite force in his hands and steadily advancing behind the army of demonized puppets is the least expensive way to capture the Blackson Human Corridor. .
For these knights in the southern countries, at this time, there are even fewer people who want to fight against the demon knights here.
If it were not for the honor and duty of knights, perhaps the vast majority of knights would have already left the subcontinent by this time.
September 4th. The vanguard of the demonized puppets officially walked out of the Carr Mountains, and the situation in the southern countries of the Blackson Human Corridor suddenly took a turn for the worse
That is to say, on that day, Zhang Tie and many other human knights were stationed on the south side of the Kalei Mountains. Begin to evacuate
After retreating hundreds of kilometers, Zhang Tie, Elder Yuchen of the Lan family and Ge Qing of the Ou family boarded the Furious-class airship back to Jinyun Kingdom.
Just like the knights of the Zhang family of Huaiyuantang use the character "Mu" as their unique knight name, the character in the middle of the knight name of the Lan family of Banxintang is "yu", and the character in the middle of the knight name of the Ou family of Chuixuetang is The word "Ge", the knight names of these two families, are equally unique in the world.
Although Zhang Tie can always fly back to Jinyun Country from here. But Zhang Tie was not stupid enough to do such a shocking thing and expose his own strength.
The airship that was going to pick up the three people stopped at Silver Pine City, the capital of the Principality of Lisca, south of the Kalei Mountains. The Principality of Ska is a small pocket country. When Zhang Tie and the others left Silverpine City in an airship, the entire Silverpine City except for the 40,000 city guards who were left to guard the city. This city has long been deserted.
When the airship took off, the 60,000-strong Yinpine City defenders all straightened their backs, raised their heads and saluted, and then watched the airship carrying the human knights leave with a gaze salute.
Zhang Tie stood on the deck of the airship, looking at the defenders of Yinsong City on the ground, with extremely complicated emotions.
These defenders in Silver Pine City were sacrificed. They stayed and fought bloody battles with the demons in exchange for it. It was their family's chance to leave the Hawaiian subcontinent.
???Every person who stays can give his five family members the opportunity to leave the Hawaiian subcontinent first. There is food for these defenders in the city for twenty days. As long as they can hold on to the city for seven days under the siege of the demonized puppets, then they can leave and escape.
Seven days gave many people a vague hope of survival. In fact, Zhang Tie, who had experienced the Battle of Sernes War Zone, knew. Under the siege of the demonized puppet army and many demon masters, even these people can use the city defense equipment of Silver Pine City to resist. But there was little chance that they could hold out for three days, let alone seven, under a siege. Therefore, it is basically difficult for these people to survive. Moreover, it is not all the demonized puppet troops that they can delay, but only a small part of the demonized puppet troops. More demonized puppet troops will ignore the existence of this city and continue to advance south.
With the exception of Silver Pine City, all the cities in the southern countries of the Kalei Mountains are the same at this moment. This iron-blooded policy to deal with the demon attack has been implemented since the first holy war.
Is this policy fair? Zhang Tie didn't know, because these human warriors who stayed to die with the demons were almost all ordinary people with average family conditions, and none of the rich and powerful people would stay to die. Can you say it's unfair? Zhang Tie doesn't know either, because in this situation where everyone cannot stay and die, and there are no resources to ensure that everyone leaves safely, between staying and leaving, as a Decision makers always have to make choices, and this choice follows the most ancient law of exchange, which is cold and realistic - only with sacrifice can there be new life. Everything,? is the simplest numbers game - a person can eliminate at least 5 or more enemies by relying on the advantages of city defense weapons and city walls. Then, the value of the soldier who stays to defend the city can be enough to let five of his relatives leave.
For those ordinary people who are unwilling to stay and defend the city, or who have no family members who are willing to stay and defend the city, if they leave the Weiyi subcontinent, their chances will become slim. They will either die under the iron hoof of the demons, or they will die. The only way to survive is to escape to areas far away from the city, uninhabited, and not even explored on the map and rely on luck.
"The so-called words such as the pricelessness of life and the dignity of life are almost ridiculously naive at this time.
One thing that jihad tells everyone is that life has a price. Not only is it valuable, but it is also not expensive. The poorer you are, the cheaper the price is.
As a knight who grew up from grass roots, at this time, facing the fate of countless grass roots that were about to be harvested, Zhang Tie could not calm down for a long time.
"Let's go, this is everyone's own choice. Even as knights, there are many things that we can't do anything about. One person's power is too small in the Holy War. If you want to control the fate of more people, as long as there are more Only strong strength can do it!" Elder Yuchen, standing next to Zhang Tie, said softly to Zhang Tie. The elder of the Lan family seemed to be able to understand Zhang Tie's somewhat complicated mood.
Zhang Tie clenched his fists tightly, then took a deep breath, and followed Elder Lan into the cabin of the airship.
Only the stronger the strength. Only by controlling the fate of more people - Zhang Tie remembered this sentence fiercely.
Back in the cabin of the airship, Zhang Tie didn't say anything more, but directly began to practice in the elemental world.
¡¡
Three days later, the Stormrage-class airship carrying three knights from the Jinyun Kingdom landed in a city it was passing through for resupply. In the middle of the night, they felt the sudden agitation outside the airship. Zhang Tie woke up from the elemental world and opened the hatch. Went out.
¡°At about the same time, Elder Yuchen of the Lan family and Elder Ge Qing of the Ou family each ended their training and walked out of their cabins. The three of them looked at each other.
"Let's go to the deck to see the situation!" Elder Ge Qing said.
Three people came to the deck. I saw that the night sky of this city had been dyed red by the firelight soaring into the sky. The whole city was in chaos. A smell of riots and killings was burning and fermenting in the night, like the fangs in the mouth of a poisonous snake, stinging Entering the nerve center of the city, it began to inject poison, making everything become violent.
The captain of the airship quickly came to the deck with a serious face.
"Report, there is a riot in Xinwu City. There are more and more mobs outside the airship base!"
"How long will it take for the airship supply to be completed?" Zhang Tie asked.
"An hour and a half!"
"Let the crew be on alert, complete supplies as soon as possible, and then take off immediately!" Zhang Tie ordered.
"Yes!" The captain saluted. Then he quickly left the deck of the airship and supervised the airship to quickly complete supplies.
"Sometimes the human heart is more terrifying than the demons!" Elder Ou Geqing looked at the ferocious fire in the distance, shook his head and said.
"Many people will die in every holy war. In the last holy war, people died not at the hands of the demons and the Three-Eyed Society, but at the hands of the human race themselves. They accounted for one-fifth of the total number of deaths in the entire holy war. Greedy wolf, fear, resentment, these are poisons that corrode people's hearts and make them more terrifying than the demons!" Elder Lan Yuchen said wisely, "Facing the demons, if the human race does not have strong cohesion, Even before the demons attack, most of the people will kill each other!"
"So, we must go back to Taixia!" Ou Geqing said decisively, "I am a fool in this life, and I don't have enough strategy."
Elder Yuchen nodded.
Zhang Tie looked at the fire outside the airship base silently, squinting
¡¡
An hour later, before the airship could complete its supplies, the outer perimeter of the airship base had been breached by the mob. The surrounding walls were torn down, and tens of thousands of mobs with torches and various weapons poured in.
A group of soldiers from the airship base, led by a commander, stood in front of the mob.
Seeing these heavily armed soldiers, the mob stopped in their tracks.
"This is a military restricted area, and intrusion is strictly prohibited" A bespectacled officer said loudly to the mob, and then turned to his men, "These people are citizens of Xinwu City, not demons. Without my order, no?Do it! "
The soldiers holding spears and wearing armor looked at each other in confusion.
The mob slowed down and slowly approached the soldiers.
"There is an airship here, and we also have the right to leave" A leading mob shouted loudly, encouraging other mobs to rush towards the soldiers.
"You can leave, but the airship here is not yours and you have no right to use it" The young officer wearing glasses still scolded righteously, "Please stop your steps and don't come any closer!"
"We just want a chance to live. We are citizens of Xinwu City, and we also have the right to leave" The leading mob opened the buttons of his clothes, exposed his chest, patted his chest and continued to approach, " All the blood flowing here is the blood of the human race. You haven¡¯t let the demons shed a drop of blood, do you want us to bleed? Come and kill, come and kill, we are all citizens of Xinwu City, come and kill us. ah¡¡"
"I say it again, please stop, this is a military restricted area" The young officer wearing glasses was shouting with sweat on his head, trying to let more people hear his words, watching the mob getting closer and closer . The soldiers behind him became increasingly uneasy.
When the two sides were close to only a few meters apart, the young officer with glasses was still opening his arms and shouting loudly
"The demons haven't reached here yet. Please don't get excited. Listen to me. You also have the opportunity to leave. There can be no chaos in Xinwu City at this time"
A strange light flashed in the eyes of the leader of the mob, and his whole body suddenly became violent. At some point, there was a dagger in his hand. The mob directly used the dagger in his hand to stab the heart of the officer wearing glasses. The officer stared wide-eyed at the man who had just patted his chest with an impassioned look on his face. At this moment, the mob who put the dagger into his heart had large mouthfuls of blood pouring out of his mouth.
The young officer wanted to say something, but he couldn't.
The leader of the mob had a ferocious expression on his face, and he pulled out the dagger. Then the next knife penetrated directly into the neck of the officer who ordered not to let the soldiers attack them actively, and they fell to the ground together with the officer.
A stream of blood shot out from the officer's neck and sprayed on the mob's face. Seeing that someone had taken action, the mob behind them swarmed up and drowned the soldiers in the airship base in an instant.
At such a close distance, once the soldiers holding spears lost their initiative, they were approached by a mob many times their number. That's a disaster.
¡¡
After frantically stabbing the bespectacled officer dozens of times on his body and neck, the leader¡¯s entire face was stained red by the blood spurting from the young officer¡¯s neck.
The mob rose. He smashed the glasses that the young officer had dropped on the ground with his kick, wiped the blood on his face, then pulled out the sword from the young officer's waist and shouted, "Grab all these airships. Everyone." Once you grab it, you can leave here, let the airship crew survive and fly the airship for us, and kill everyone else."
The leading mob raised its arms and countless people rushed towards the airships.
¡¡
Zhang Tie stood on the high deck of the airship, watching the scene happening in the distance coldly, watching the young officer wearing glasses fall down with a blank look on his face, dying among the people he wanted to protect. in hand.
The lines on Zhang Tie¡¯s face slowly became hard
¡¡
The huge figure of the hurricane-class airship is very conspicuous in the airship base. Compared with several other small and medium-sized airships scattered in the airship base, Zhang Tie's airship simply stands out from the crowd.
Seeing Zhang Tie's Stormrage-class airship, the leaders of the mob's eyes lit up, they glanced at each other, and quickly ran towards this side.
The personnel accompanying the airship have formed a cordon around the perimeter of the airship.
This airship is the war airship of the Hurricane Legion, the aerial vehicle of the legion commander. Among the accompanying crew members, almost everyone is a battle-hardened master and warrior. There are a lot of warriors above level ten, and those people have a lot of power on their bodies. The aura of fierce iron and blood and the bright weapons on their hands made the mobs running towards here stop in their tracks.
"We are citizens of Xinwu City. Now this city has been taken over by a citizen committee composed of us citizens. We want to commandeer your airship!" The leading mob looked at the beautiful Stormrage-class ship with greedy eyes. The airship slowed down and said loudly as he walked.
"Stop!" said a black-faced man guarding the airship.The official said coldly.
"I said, this place has been taken over by our citizens committee" The leader of the mob said loudly as he walked with a strange light flashing in his eyes.
"Get ready!" The black-faced officer of the Hurricane Legion said nothing. He just raised a hand and ordered the soldiers guarding the airship to prepare for battle.
With a crash, all the soldiers who were on guard against the airship took a step forward, and their bright weapons were aimed at the approaching mob.
The mob¡¯s footsteps stopped.
"Why, do you still dare to take action? Do you dare to massacre the citizens here in this city" The leading mob did not stop, but repeated his trick as he walked. He tore off his clothes and exposed himself chest, "Come here if you feel like it, come on, come on"
The mob started making noise.
At this time, the eyes of the Lan family and the Ou family were all on Zhang Tie¡¯s face
Zhang Tie¡¯s face was expressionless, he just raised his hand, and a burst of fighting energy flew out from his fingers, directly blasting the leading mob¡¯s body into a pile of minced meat from a distance of dozens of meters.
Zhang Tie spoke coldly and issued an order, "Anyone who affects the airship's supply and comes within fifty meters of the airship's warning range will be killed without mercy!"
As soon as Zhang Tie's voice fell, the warriors of the Hurricane Legion who were guarding the airship rushed out one by one like tigers rushing into a flock of sheep. In the blink of an eye, the heads of those who took the lead and the mob at the forefront were Pieces flew up.
In less than two minutes, the airship was completely cleared within 50 meters. The corpses of the mob lay on the ground. The rest of the mob ran out one by one crying for their fathers and mothers. When they ran to the distance, they saw The guards of the airship didn't seem to be chasing after them, so they all looked at the companions who turned into corpses within 50 meters around the airship with pale faces in shock. No one dared to approach the airship anymore
After another half hour, the airship completed its supplies, and all the crew and guards returned to the airship one by one. As the mob watched, the Stormrage-class airship took off and left the rioting Xinwu City overnight. Flying towards Huaiyuantang
¡¡
After passing through the Kalei Mountains, the demon army moved hundreds of miles a day, like a flood sweeping across the earth, rushing towards the south
Cities fell one after another, and countries perished. The entire Hawaiian subcontinent was trembling under the attack of the demons, and all life was in ruins
The Hurricane Corps stationed in Huaiyuan County began to evacuate in batches
By late October, most of the countries and regions south of the Carr¨¦ Mountains had fallen.
At the end of November, several wealthy Chinese families in the north of Jinyun Kingdom have all completed their evacuation
At this time, Zhang Tie also gradually completed his final preparations.
¡¡
On November 23, the commander of the Hurricane Legion station was in the procession
"A part of the vanguard of the demon army arrived at the north bank of Yuanjiang River an hour ago" Director Xingyuan hurriedly came to Zhang Tie's army commander's office and reported the news in a calm tone as much as possible.
Zhang Tie put away his remote sensing crystal. He had just contacted his brother. Everyone in his family was worried about his safety. In the past month, Zhang Tie's mother had even wanted to get Zhang Tie's death. My brother contacted Zhang Tie three times a day to confirm that Zhang Tie was okay.
"The remaining troops of the Hurricane Legion boarded the ship immediately and left two hours later"
"Yes!" The director of the building saluted and quickly turned around and left.
Zhang Tie stood up, took one last look at the office, and prepared to leave
At this time, the voice of Heller, who had not contacted him for a long time, appeared in Zhang Tie's mind, "Lord, there is news, I think you should know it now!"
Zhang Tie kept walking, but asked Heller through his consciousness, "What news!"
"The poisonous species of mutated corpse poison miasma that you sent to the Black Iron Castle last time has completed its second mutation"
Zhang Tie was shocked, and his footsteps suddenly stopped (To be continued) - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
