Chapter 40: Catch the strong man again
Lin Tian sent four messengers to send a duchy, hoping to persuade them to withdraw. At present, with the invasion of orcs, all the principality is very worried that their country will become the target of the orc attack. I'm not in the mood to fight with Nalan. Therefore, the messengers completed the task very well, and the five-way army removed the Duchy of Zhiyue, which was the first to retreat. After that, he retreated two ways, and there was another one with the Duke of Chaos.
Lin Tian sent the old duke on an expedition to drive back all the troops of the Principality of Chaos in Nalan. As for the last journey, Lin Tian personally took charge of the expedition. The two sides fought for seven days, and each had its own casualties. In the end, the two sides had a truce, and the Nalan crisis was temporarily lifted. But everyone can't relax.
The Ministry of Nalan has a mountain range, which is called Liantian Mountains. Hearing this name, you can know how tall the mountain is, and the mountain is covered with snow all year round. Passers-by often die in avalanches, and the northern part of the Liantian Mountains is the territory of the Orc Empire.
The orc empire is a general term. In fact, the orc empire is also divided into many kings like the human world. Among them, the strongest are the Tiger Kingdom and the Lion Kingdom. They are called the royal family of the orcs, and most of the orc emperors choose between these two races. Of course, there are many powerful races that are the main races of the Orc Empire.
Such as cattle, wolves, etc., of course, there are also some jobs suitable for scouting. Such as fox, cat, etc. Each race forms a kingdom, and every king has to listen to the movement of the beast emperor. This is the overall situation of the orc empire, which generally does not attack the human world to grab some food until winter.
Because orcs can't farm, they can only live by hunting. And orcs like good wine, but the wine they make tastes bad. Therefore, they often exchange life supplies and wine with humans with Warcraft crystal cores, but in winter, Warcrafts will not come out to hunt, and orcs also know that they can't kill chickens to get eggs. Winter is generally the season when beasts seek their survival value, and orcs will not hunt.
And meat and the cost can't be saved for a long time, and the beasts will be out of food in the winter. At this time, the Beast Emperor will organize a large army to attack the human world to grab the food and wine needed for life. But now, just in autumn, the army of the orcs has already made a big attack. The unprepared human country was quickly defeated.
"You didn't find out the reason why the orc empire invaded?" Lin Shiqi kicked the messenger away and scolded loudly
"To deter the king, it is said that a demon came to the orc empire. They ate all the monsters in the orc grassland or scared away, and the orcs robbed the human world without food.
"These non-humans come to grab it if they don't eat it. He will not trade with human beings. Human beings have plenty of food. Just take out the magic crystal and exchange it, but you have to rob it. What a hateful race." Lin Feng had to scold, "Which army did the orcs send this time and what is the march route?"
"The Orc Empire sent a total of 500,000 troops this time, divided into three routes. The first road is the Principality of Zhiyue, where 150,000 werewolf cavalry attacked. The second way is the defeated empire, where the orcs invested 300,000 of the main army. These include 200,000 oxen warriors and 50,000 wolf cavalry. There are also orcs sacrificing 300 people, and the rest are armies of other races.
"Damn it, so much? Is there any movement in the Liantian Mountains? Lin Tian asked
"I haven't received any news for the time being, but the terrain of Liantian Mountains is extremely poor. There are many cliffs and cliffs, and it is not so easy for orcs to pass through. Unless they can fly over, it is impossible to follow. A young general said, Lin Tian wrinkled. I heard that there is a race called Wing Man in the Orc Empire. Is there any? Lin Tian asked
"There is such a race to deter the king. However, it could not have passed through the Liantian Mountains, unless the dragon could fly over the Liantian Mountains. Lin Tian nodded: "I hope so, but the former people invaded. I'm afraid that a defeated empire alone will be difficult to stop. Sooner or later, our small duchies that rely on the empire will be used as cannon fodder. How many soldiers do we have now? Lin Tian asked
"To deter the political king, Nalan's regular army has 250,000. There are also more than 400,000 newly captured strong men, er, newly recruited soldiers. The total is about 650,000.
"That is to say, only 250,000 can fight, leaving at least 100,000 left. We only have 150,000 to summon." Lin Tian frowned, which was not enough. And the rich asked
"Ministry of Household, how much money can the Principality pay for military expenses?"
"To deter the king, Nalan had a good harvest this year. However, after the rebellion of the two princes, they fought twice with the Principality of Chaos. This time, there are so many vigorous conscriptions, and the treasury has been exhausted. The grain stored now is not enough to last until next year's harvest season!" The household official took out his account book and looked at it and was shocked. Urgent answer to Lin Tian
"Damn it, I don't have any money?" Lin Tian was shocked
"There is no money. The territory of the Duchy of Nalan is small. This conscription of more than 400,000 has reduced many labor forces and consumed more of the war. Therefore, the invasion of us by orcs will not play much role.
"What should I do? The Duchy of Nalan is attached to the defeated empire. As the main attacking empire of Zeng people, the defeated empire will definitely send our small duchy to the vanguard. If we don't do it, we will be directly destroyed by the defeated empire. Lin Tian shook his head and recruited so many strong men to come back from the war, but he had no money for military expenses. If the military expenditure is not solved, it will be strange that there will be no rebellion.
"This,,,,"
A group of bad news in the early morning. There was no good news. Lin Tian returned home. Delis is practicing swords in the yard, and Sivey is lingering with the kitten. Left and right kiss, completely ignoring Lin Tian's existence. Lin Tian looked at Sivey's intimacy with the kitten, and the two little Lori played with lilies in front of you. This** is not small.
"Sivi, why do you like that dead snake? What's wrong with you, Brother Lin Tian? Why don't I play with you? Lin Tian asked with a smile and looked at Xiwei. Lin Tian's anger in the court disappeared.
"Humph, is this a kitten? Brother Lin Tian died, sister Delis, brother Lin Tian bullied me/" Sivey complained to Delis, and Lin Tian immediately felt a cold air behind him. He looked back at Delis with a smile; "Dai, why are you still practicing swordsmanship? You can use your heart to practice the demon sound of life. That's much more powerful.
Looking at the slight sweat on Delis' face, Lin Tian took out a silk scarf to wipe it off. Delis's angry face quickly faded and looked at Lin Tian with great emotion. With infinite tenderness, Lin Tian stretched out his hand and held Delis in his arms: "Dai, I'm going out again."
"Why? Why can't you attack again?" Delis smiled and greeted Lin Tian to enter the house. Then he asked his servants to bring up all the food, and Sivi and the kitten sat on the table early and waited for the meal. This time, the dishes are quite rich, with wine and meat. Now Delis drank two glasses of fruit wine and began to eat.
After dinner, Hivira took the kitten out to play in the water. It's late autumn, and the weather is getting cooler and cooler. And Sivey and the kitten are not mortals, and of course they are not afraid of the cold. The two ran to the leak in the backyard and had a good time, and Lin Tian and Delis looked at each other and sat down. Delis took out Lin Tian's knife and wiped it clean.
"Dai, this knife was still given from Oscar. Ha ha, I have been using it until now. It's a little damaged, but I've been reluctant to lose it. He took the knife from Delis and looked at the damaged marks on the knife. There is also the faint green light emitted from the knife, which should be the power of ghosts and gods to strengthen the breakage of the knife. Otherwise, these ordinary weapons will be broken with Lin Tian's power.
"Oscar? Is it the heir of the Asura family, hehe. Delis smiled, and Lin Tiantai was in his hand. It is very powerful and charming. Delis feels really happy.
"Isn't that him? Think about it, it has been almost two years since he was expelled from Fried Magic Academy. In the past two years, I have been wandering around. Fortunately, God let me meet you. My good wife." Lin Tian hugged Delis tightly: "If there is no one, I don't know what to do."
"Ha ha, don't say such meaty words, okay?" Delis patted Lin Tian's hand and said with a smile. But my heart is very sweet.
"And Nia, she should graduate from Fried Magic Academy in another year! I really don't know how she is now? Dai, do you remember Nia? My sister."
"I remember that we escorted you and Nia to Fried school at that time."
"Nia has a high magical talent, and I don't know what her strength is now. Has anyone bullied her? Lin Tian looked at the sky and remembered Nia's lovely smiling face. And Nia cried sadly when she left. She should have found a boyfriend in the past two years! Hey hey, Lin Tian smiled bitterly. There is a sour taste in my heart when I think of these.
"Delis, if I die one day. Please cut off my ghost hand. One day the ghost hand can save your life. Lin Tian suddenly changed the topic, which surprised Delis. He kicked Lin Tian angrily, "Why did you say that?"
"I'm afraid. Ji Gang is too powerful. I'm afraid that no one in this continent is against Ji Gang except the Creator. I'm afraid that Ji Gang will be resurrected. And I don't have the ability to protect my lover." Lin Tian became deeply, which was really unbearable. I have a feeling that Ji Gang is my natural nemesis. I can only exist with him, and it is me who mostly dies against Ji Gang.
"Dewey said that Ji Gang can break through the seal within ten years, and I don't have confidence." Lin Tian held Delis tightly in his arms, "I really don't have the power to fight against Ji Gang in this short decade, if I can. I really want to take you, Nia and Sivey away. Go to a place that no one else can ever find.
"No, you are the strongest in my heart. No matter what happens, let's take on it together! We are husband and wife, aren't we? Ha ha."
