Western Continent, Crancia.

Since the start of the war two years ago, millions of armies have gathered near the Apocalypse fortress and lined up on the long border to fight the swept red army.

Since the reform of the country's industry, all kinds of equipment in Crancia have gradually been completed, basically ensuring that every soldier can get a unified weapon and armor.

Military boots, waterproof cloaks, tents, backpacks, water bottles, helmets, light locks, forged breastplates, sabers, daggers, and muskets. These materials are produced by various provinces and counties under the full operation of the national machinery, and then continuously Converge to the front line.

In today's battlefield, although muskets have begun to be used, they have not yet become mainstream for many reasons.

First, the range is limited. The effective range of the current musket is only 100-200 meters, and the accuracy is not high. It often requires dense arrays to form lethality.

Second, the penetrating power is insufficient, and the gunpowder technology has not yet reached the level of later generations. The propelling force of the original gunpowder is not large, and it is not enough to shoot through those middle and high-level transcendents wearing armor. In addition, loading also takes a lot of time.

The third is that it is not easy to manufacture. If it is said that 100,000 muskets can be produced in a short time, it is still difficult to supply the consumption of 2 million people immediately.

But this is not to say that muskets are useless, but in many occasions, whether it is defense, temptation, or a wave of front-line killings, there are good use scenarios. For some ordinary people and low-level transcendents, the bullets fired by the musket are indeed deadly.

To deal with those middle-level transcendents, there are thousands of magic crystal gun troops in the army. The magic crystal guns and enchanted bullets used by them are the third-generation craft products after improving the skills of the Frost Union. It can effectively kill the transcendents of Sequence 5 and below, and it also poses a big threat to the existence of Sequence 6.

The only restriction to them is the low output of the magic crystal gun and the expensive enchanted bullets.

If you want to use the analogy of the past era, it is probably close to the situation during World War I. The Lancers and other melee troops still existed as a system, and the musket began to be used as a means of various auxiliary attacks.

In 1696 of the Third Age, the Canghong Empire launched a series of offensives against Crancia. More than 2 million armies confronted Crancia near the Apocalypse Fortress, forming a continuous and anxious front, and the two sides began to engage in various combat power contests.

Among them are the glorious banners of the past. The gale cavalry passed from the west wind is like a white sea, scouring the enemy's formation on the golden plain, and many well-known legions have emerged from the blue empire, the blue longbow army ``bear helmet''. The heavy cavalry, the "Poison Bee Blade Regiment", the Night Owl Assassination Team, and the Whitehorn Antelope Deer Relief Order, still played a significant role in local battles and greatly improved the situation.

At the same time, in the sky, the dragons of the Basca family continued to bomb and attack the large and small bunkers and city fortresses near the Apocalypse fortress, trying to cut off the wings of the fortress and make it an isolated city.

Fighting with it is the Overlord Ankylosaurus from the Young Moon Council, the Black Winged Air Combat Legion of the Wing Race, and the Air Slashing Sparrow from the Tiziran Mountains. They jointly build a well-defined battle line, reconnaissance, sniper, and siege. The blood-winged red dragons resisted its bombardment of the city fortress below.

When the war progressed into the winter, several bad news came.

First, a surprise attack force passed through the mountains of sighs, entered the back of the Apocalypse Fortress, and began to wreak havoc on the logistics route, burned the granary, and blocked the supply line.

In order to be able to supply the Apocalypse fortress with food and logistical supplies in time, the Crancia soldiers were divided into two routes. One was transported by sea, transporting urgently needed supplies to the front line. Legion.

But the Canghong Empire seemed to be aware of the dilemma of the Apocalypse Fortress. A large number of ships were transferred from the country, and under the emperor's order, they traveled south along the coastline to the waters south of the Apocalypse Fortress to block the transport fleet.

The two sides engaged in fierce firefights at sea. Although the warships on the Crancia side had technical advantages, the Crimson Empire had the participation of elves. The flexible elves of its aerial combat could easily break through the artillery blockade and land the warship. In hand-to-hand combat, the technical advantages are greatly offset.

In contrast, the Canghong Empire's fleet was large and wide, arranging the sea surface layer by layer to advance, encircling the Croatian fleet and beginning to strangle. If it were not for the last Hinmotsu Council's fleet to rush to support in time and open a way to survive, the new fleet of Crancia would probably have to be annihilated on the spot.

Even if everything is developing for the better, I have to say that the time for Crancia to settle is still too short. The Canghong Empire relies on three times the population of the Starlight Union, and all kinds of materials and personnel are crushed, just like adults bullying children. .

On land, the cavalry of the Canghong Empire was finally chased after several escapes.

In the wilderness, the National Knights of Crancia and the Blood Spear Knights directly under the Crimson Empire oppose each other, and the pure white and bright red flags are intertwined. Both sides are elites in the army, with a high will to fight, and the blood that was killed in the first battle flowed into a river, and it was extremely tragic.

In the end when the two sides were nearly exhausted, the leader of the Blood Spear Knights suddenly showed power, armed with a long spear into the enemy's formation, cut dozens of platinum wind flags, and led a dozen people behind him to penetrate the front in an instant.

Encouraged and led by him, this army changed its formations again, strangling opponents continuously, and finally won the victory.

Under such circumstances, the supply of the Apocalypse fortress began to appear difficult, coupled with the arrival of winter, the need for firewood and food was even worse.

Taking advantage of this weak moment, the army of the Canghong Empire kept attacking. From day to dusk, from night to dawn, it was never exhausted. After a month, the Apocalypse Fortress was covered with corpses and gaps, and the garrison was exhausted. pole.

Seeing this situation, Crancia had to begin to consider the need to retreat.

The two million-plus army is the core and elite of the Starlight Union. If all were destroyed here, I am afraid that the country will not be far from ruin.

For this reason, Crancia and the Hinayue Council jointly fought a large-scale naval battle.

Thousands of warships gathered on the coast, attacked the red ports and camps, bombed a lot of supplies to the front line, and this also attracted the hatred of the Canghong Empire Navy.

The two sides began to drag and chase on the sea for two weeks. In the end, the Crimson Empire's fleet was lured into the turbulent waters with complex ocean currents, and was mostly annihilated by Crancia and the Young Moon Council.

After this, the sea route was finally barely unblocked and began to supply and transfer the Apocalypse Fortress.

The second spring.

The Apocalypse fortress has been bombarded for nearly half a year and is already dilapidated. It is no longer suitable for garrisoning. The troops in it have begun to move. The blood spear knights that had troubled the territory were finally defeated by the steel and sun knights, although its leaders and A few elites were not caught, but the logistics supply line on the land was opened again.

In the third era, in April 1967, Crancia withdrew from the Apocalypse fortress, contracted the line of defense backward, built castles along the way, and strengthened the city's defenses.

In June of the same year, the Canghong Empire once again sent 1.2 million troops to support the Western Expedition, and its leader was the twin brother of the current emperor, Edron. He and the Duke of Red Dragon will attack the hinterland of Crancia and conquer this vast land.

In August, Crancia and the 3 million armies of the Crimson Empire fought and retreated, and most of the former land of Ruhrna fell.

In September, the empire's army continued to advance westward, taking all the territory of the former Ruhrna nation into the bag.

In November, the imperial army came to Ubere, the former capital of Wilga.

In December, after a month of bombing and siege, the Empire occupied Ubere. As the weather turned cold, it began to rectify and make preparations for the attack on Hopland in the coming year.

——

The Third Age, January 1968, Hopelander.

There was fine snow floating in the gray sky, and it melted when it hit the ground, moistening the cold stone streets.

The former bustling city is now awe-inspiring, with Crancia soldiers on duty and patrolling everywhere. They are wearing neat armor, holding muskets and halberds, and walking neatly in the wind and snow.

The open space near the city gate is now full of tents, and people fleeing everywhere.

"Name?"

"Debrand."

"from where?"

"Liuli Province."

"What did you do before? What skills do you have? If you have one, I can arrange a job for you so that living conditions will be better."

"I understand this. My father is a carpenter. He learned a lot of related things when he was young, and now he can do some work."

"Very well, take this sign to the desk on the right to report."

There is a long line in front of a table next to the city gate. These refugees from the sinking area will be registered here, and then unified arrangements will be made by local government personnel.

A person covered in wind and snow waited, as the team slowly advanced, registered, and then took the nameplate to collect food and find a place to sleep tonight.

At this time, a girl wrapped in a dark turban stepped forward and looked like she was about 20 years old. She was wearing a plain cotton-padded jacket and the turban was also covered with clammy snowflakes.

"Name?"

"Lettis," the flushed girl with a cold face replied.

"from where?"

"Liuli Province."

"What did you do before, will you have any skills?"

"This.... I know alchemy. I have worked in a spinning mill before. This has my previous work permit." After speaking, a crumpled paper certificate was spread out with the letters Letis printed on it. Blurred handwriting.

"Alchemy, are you sure you are joking?" The staff member looked up at the girl.

"This...I do. I can recite a lot of formulas and principles on the spot, and draw pictures. Yes, it's okay to draw designs." The girl said nervously.

"Well, I don't understand what you said." He lowered his head to write something, but he accidentally saw the palm of his hand full of work scars.

"You are a familiar spinner, but unfortunately there is no textile factory here. Maybe you can go to the clothing store to do some work, so that you can live more comfortably without having to spend your day in a tent with other people."

"I do, I do." Letis nodded and replied gratefully.

"Okay, take your nameplate, go to the right to report, take a short break these two days, and then work hard."

"Although it's a bit hard, you are already lucky compared to those who died in the war and on the road."

"Um."

Holding the slightly cold metal nameplate, Letis carefully held it in her palm and walked to the side table.

"Good boy, work hard, come and have some warm porridge. Then show me the nameplate and the certificate of introduction." An old grandmother stood behind the table and greeted Letis.

There is a slightly larger open tent here, and hot porridge is being cooked in it. Some refugees are picking up food here with nameplates.

Letis held the metal nameplate representing her identity and showed it to the old man with a little care, then the other party smiled and nodded.

"Okay, don't be afraid, it's all over. It's a safe place now. At least I can sleep well this winter." She looked at the girl with affectionate eyes, and then asked her to enter the tent and sit down for the time being. Serve a bowl of warm oatmeal.

The oatmeal porridge is rotten and exudes a slight mushy taste. Although it is ordinary, it smells like the most delicious food in the world. It was more attractive than the delicacies she had eaten at the noble banquet in Mozwa.

The warm liquid enters the body along the throat, with a faint sweet taste, gradually warming the cold body, and depositing in the stomach, a quiet happiness slowly rises.

There seems to be no other thing in the world, only this bowl of porridge in the palm of the hand in front of him.

It is the source of life, the happiness of a warm winter night, and the beginning of hope for the future.

The next day, Letis came to a clothing store.

Looking up, there is a mermaid silhouette with a gradient of color drawn on the signboard.

"Mermaid at Sunset"? She muttered in a low voice, and then walked into it.

"Hello, is the shop owner here? I was just introduced to work."

She walked into this seemingly ordinary shop. There were clothes of various colors hanging in the closet. The colors of these clothes were changeable, but the styles were more classical and conservative, and there was nothing new. Perhaps this is the reason for the poor sales.

"Oh, is anyone here, wait a minute."

After a while, a middle-aged aunt walked out of the back room. She was wearing a purple-red gradation fur coat, which looked very special.

Taking the note from Letis, she looked at it.

"It turned out to be the case. Recently, because many people have fled from the east, the city managers have also informed them that they will place some in residents' homes."

"You worked in a textile factory before, right."

"Yes."

"That's just right, please help me. The weather has been cold recently. We are going to make a batch of warm coats, and the sales will be very good."

Then she led Letis to the warehouse in the backyard.

"In the first half of last year, I asked the Lamia Chamber of Commerce to purchase a batch of ancient prairie fur. I didn't expect to use it this year."

"It's a pity that my daughter is not at home, but I and an old mother are busy in the shop, and the progress of this matter has not been fast."

As she said, she opened the door of the warehouse, and piles of tall fur were **** together. uukanshu.com exudes a faint smell, which seems to be a mixture of dry powder and a slight musty smell of fur, which makes the nose a little itchy.

Letis walked in carefully, glanced around.

"Is there so many?"

"Haha, yes, because the trade line with the north has been smooth these years, the price of fur has become a lot cheaper, so I took the opportunity to buy a lot of goods."

"Now, it's not easy to buy. After all, many of them are used to make military coats and military supplies."

"Today I will sort out a room for you to rest and sleep. Let's learn to work tomorrow. Of course, I still have the salary."

"Um."

Letis nodded, and then followed the aunt to the other side, before she looked back at the furry pile of warehouses, but was thinking of another thing in her mind.

It would be too slow to sew so much fur with human power.

Maybe I can try to make an alchemy creation that helps sewing, so it should be a lot easier.

With such thoughts in mind, she slowly lay on the bed, the soft and warm bedding allowed the weather-beaten girl to quickly enter a peaceful sleep.

The uneasy heart slowly fell, and the anxious thoughts stopped a little at this moment.
