Chapter 123 The Counterattack of the Two Great Empires
After the two magisters retreated from Metro City, the situation in Metro City became a little weird.
For a full half a month after that, the Candela Empire did not take any action.
There was no army to attack Metro City in an attempt to regain it, and the Candela Empire did not send any more reinforcements. Even the elite magician army sent by the Candela Empire's military headquarters retreated silently one morning.
Only the 50,000 reinforcements sent by the Governor's Mansion of the Southwest Province remained conscientiously guarding the camp five kilometers outside Metro City, but they had no intention of attacking Metro City in the slightest.
If these 50,000 people were ignored, the current Metro City would seem to have been forgotten by the Kandela Empire, appearing extremely peaceful and peaceful.
But outside of Metro City, the situation on the entire continent is not calm at all, and even tends to become more and more intense.
On October 13th, when the first ray of cold wind representing winter just blew from the north, the Maro Empire and the Frankish army in exile in the Maro Empire formed an allied force to attack the former Farr that was now occupied by the Duchy of Drake. Kingdom territory.
Before this battle, three magisters from the Maro Empire directly declared their participation in the battle.
As for their participation in the war, the reason given by the three magisters was that the Principality of Drake was the aggressor, and they only helped the Kingdom of Falk regain its own territory and rebuild its own country, which belonged to a "just war."
Because of the direct participation of the three magisters, even though the Kendela Empire was equipped with a large number of military magic machines, it was still unable to withstand the extremely powerful attacks from the magisters, and they retreated steadily as soon as the battle started.
At the same time, another army from the Maro Empire in the east attacked the territory that belonged to the Kingdom of Frankish and now belonged to the Kingdom of Lampari.
The lineup of this army is even stronger than those attacking the Principality of Drake. The total input force is as high as 200,000, and it is equipped with a total of more than 500 senior magicians and 28 great magicians. There are a total of four magisters directly participating in the battle.
Although the military strength of the Lampari Kingdom is undoubtedly much stronger than that of the Duke of Drake, it is still difficult to resist the terrifying offensive of the Maro Empire. In just three days, they were defeated and retreated a full hundred kilometers away, giving up a large area of territory.
On October 15th, two days after the coalition forces of the Maro Empire and the Frankish Kingdom simultaneously attacked the Kingdom of Lampari and the Principality of Drake, the Candela Empire suddenly dispatched a large army, divided into three groups. All the way, an army of 150,000 troops marched westward into the area that originally belonged to the Frankish Kingdom and is now controlled by the Lampari Kingdom.
Cooperating with the coalition forces of the Maro Empire and the Frankish Kingdom attacking from the north, the total number of enemy troops entering this area has reached 350,000, including a large number of magicians from the Maro Empire and the Candela Empire. , and there are even a total of six magisters among them.
Seeing that there is too much difference in the strength of the two sides. The Lampari Kingdom did not make much resistance, and it had withdrawn another 300 kilometers in just five days.
In addition to the territory lost under the attack of the Marfa allied forces before, the Lampari Kingdom had given up nearly half of the territory occupied by the Frankish Kingdom within less than ten days of this war.
The other two armies of the Candela Empire headed south all the way and invaded the Rulson Kingdom again.
This time, the Candela Empire army was not like the previous two invasions of the Rulson Kingdom, where the whole army put on a big battle posture and advanced steadily. Instead, the entire 50,000 army was composed of elite light cavalry. The purpose of the country is not to capture land and cities, but to go straight to the mines in the Rulson Kingdom.
Because these light cavalry come and go like the wind. The movement was extremely flexible, but the Luerson Kingdom was short of troops and the defenses were not strict enough, so that the 50,000 light cavalry corps destroyed 13 mines in the Luerson Kingdom in less than a week. The thirteen mines were completely paralyzed.
Among the thirteen mines, five mines belong to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and six of the remaining eight mines are jointly developed by the Luerxun Kingdom and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
In the end, the army of the Candela Empire invaded directly from the southeast corner of the Candela Empire to the Dro Kingdom, which had been controlled by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
Along with this wave of troops, riots headed by the Dro tribe broke out all over the kingdom of the Dro tribe.
Almost all the facilities established by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the Dro kingdom have been severely damaged. Except for an area under the protection of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce guard base near the capital of the Dro tribe, other areas in the Dro tribe kingdom were soon plunged into chaos and out of the control of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
However, the Candela Empire army along the way did not go straight to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce Guard Brigade stationed near the capital of the Dro tribe to fight as many people expected, but turned to the south. Invaded into the territory of the Principality of Wales.
Although the Principality of Wales has also received a large amount of military magic machinery support from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it is only a poor principality after all, with weak troops and weak background, and there is no way to withstand the army of the Candela Empire.
Under the attack of the Candela Empire army all the way, the army of the Principality of Wales was defeated all the way. Soon, most of the territory was invaded and occupied by the army of the Candela Empire, leaving only a piece of territory ambushed by the southern seaport that has not yet fallen.
When Sainz was playing in the west and middle of the mainland, the east of the mainland was not idle.
On October 27th, when the eastern army of the Candela Empire invaded the Principality of Wales, a total of thirteen countries led by the Magic Kingdom of Mana that had previously signed a cooperation agreement with the two empires used the slogan "Restore the Order of the Continent" to fight In the name of "taking back territory for the invaded country", they formed a huge army with a total strength of more than 300,000, and invaded the southwestern region of the mainland controlled by the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom and several neighboring cooperative countries.
In this coalition, not only three magisters from the Magic Kingdom of Mana directly participated in the battle, but also two magisters who had always lived in seclusion also announced their participation.
With five magisters, hundreds of great magicians and a large number of senior magicians participating in the battle, combined with a terrifying force of 300,000, the total army of less than 130,000 under the name of Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom is extremely vulnerable.
Even though the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom has vigorously imported military magic machinery from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in recent years, less than one-third of the army has completed the transformation, and the overall strength is still not enough to compete with the opponent.
So after the battle started, the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom also lost consecutive battles.
It wasn't until they finally retreated to the mainland of the Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom that they temporarily stabilized their position with the help of the magic defense system created by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and stopped the trend of retreat.
However, judging from the strength comparison between the two sides, Nozdormu Commercial United Kingdom obviously has no chance of counterattack.
Once the magister to which the enemy belonged really broke his face and blatantly broke the unwritten rule of the Candela Empire that "magisters are not allowed to participate in wars that invade other countries", then the fate of the commercial United Kingdom of Nozdormu will inevitably be in jeopardy.
Two months ago, the entire continent was shocked by the disastrous failures of the Candela Empire and the Maro Empire when they invaded the Rulson Kingdom and the Drac Principality respectively.
A month and a half ago, because of the sharp counterattack of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce camp, the entire continent suffered a disastrous defeat for the two empires, and even several countries in the two empire camps, such as the Frank Kingdom and the Dro Kingdom, were horrified by the direct destruction and were horrified. The powerful force displayed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce camp was so shocking that many people thought that this continent would undergo tremendous changes, and it would fall under the control of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
But now the major countries represented by the two empires exerted their strength at the same time, and immediately achieved such brilliant results. On the contrary, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce camp was retreating steadily, and did not show much strength at all.
As a result, the direction of public opinion on Sainz's continent immediately reversed.
Almost everyone is singing the praises of the two empires, saying that the two empires represent the traditions of this continent.
The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has only obtained some local advantages by relying on a little novelty, but because it cannot be compared with the two empires in terms of background, naturally there is no way to fundamentally shake the status of the two empires.
People believed that the new forces represented by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce would soon be crushed by the two empires, and the entire Sains Continent would return to the traditional order.
"Hey, these guys are really flattering and making themselves stupid." Xu Yi put down a large stack of newspapers in his hand, smiled and shook his head.
Some of these newspapers come from the Candela Empire, some from the Maro Empire, and some from the other two major empire camps. They all share a unified view, that is, the two generations of empires represent the orthodoxy of this continent. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is just a clown who can't affect the overall situation. Sooner or later, it will be crushed by the two empires.
Xu Yi is of course dismissive of this point of view, but he is also very clear that the vast majority of people on this continent now think so, even many people in many countries belonging to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce camp think so.
The reason is that in the past two months, the two imperial camps have launched a fierce counterattack, which has caused a large-scale setback in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce camp, which naturally shakes people's confidence.
There is only one way to change people's views, and that is to speak with facts and strength.
As long as the counterattack of the two empires can be smashed, the wind direction of the entire continent will inevitably reverse again.
"Boy, what are you going to do?" Magister Camilla glanced at the stack of newspapers that Xu Yi threw on the table, and asked seriously.
Hearing this question, Xu Yi sighed lightly.
"I was trying to tell people the world had changed in the gentlest way possible, but obviously I was wrong. Grandpa, you and Steele were right, I was too idealistic and naive a lot of the time .In this world, fists are always the most useful words.'
Xu Yi paused, and slapped the stack of newspapers, his face and eyes turned firm.
"Since they want war, I will give them war." (~^~)
