Chapter 328 The Struggle between the Two Countries

The war on the front line entered a stalemate. As the second-line troops, the 27th Corps was either suppressing the dwarf rebels or on the way to suppress the rebels, and plundered the wealth accumulated by the dwarves.

Before the war began, there were more than 1.1 million dwarves living in the entire Xigas Province.

In less than half a year, some of the population fled to the north, a small number entered the Gray Wasteland to avoid the disaster of the war, and a considerable number became slaves and were sold to slave traders.

The number of dwarves in Xigas Province is less than half of that before the war, and even the number of troops of the Kingdom of Elijah in Xigas Province exceeds the number of dwarves.

After three months of siege, about 12,000 dwarves surrendered and were sold to slave traders by Cassius one after another, earning 1.2 million gold coins.

The wealth handed over by the other four troops of the 135th Corps, except for the wealth to be handed over to the Corps, the rest was distributed to the small nobles. Weilin probably gained 13 million gold coins.

"Sure enough, robbing is always easier to accumulate wealth than doing business. No-cost business is really getting more and more addictive." Weilin looked at the account book in his hand and couldn't help sighing.

However, this kind of thing is just to think about it. On the battlefield, the situation is changing. No one knows what will happen in the next moment. Maybe you are in a carnival the moment before, and you will be defeated the next moment. It is not impossible.

According to Weilin's calculations, there are less than a thousand dwarves alive in the Iron Tower City, but he did not end the siege plan, but asked Cassius not to relax.

Anyway, the legion has not issued a new order now, so just continue the siege and find something to do for yourself.

On the front battlefield, with the priests of the Church of Life, the number of casualties of the Ilia Kingdom army is far lower than the number of dwarfs killed in battle.

According to the battlefield situation between the north and the south, the Ironforge Dwarf Mountain Kingdom quickly changed its war strategy, replaced an elite legion with several ordinary legions of dwarf troops, piled up the miscellaneous troops in the south, and transferred the replaced elite legion to the north, preparing to win a partial victory on the northern battlefield, and then turn back to deal with the army of the Ilia Kingdom.

In response to the situation on the battlefield, the Kingdom of Ilia quickly adjusted its war strategy and prepared to use ordinary legions to deal with these dwarf miscellaneous troops, and withdraw its elite legions to rest.

The purpose of this war is to completely obtain the ownership of the 850,000 square kilometers of land in the new land in the north, and there is no intention to further encroach on other territories of the Ironforge Dwarf Mountain Kingdom.

In other words, no matter how much territory is conquered, it will eventually be returned after the war.

In addition, it is not advisable to push the dwarves too hard on the southern battlefield, so that the other side has enough strength to go to the north and consume the Kingdom of Basio, which is also an important purpose of the Kingdom of Ilia.

Even later, when the Kingdom of Basio knew the shamelessness of the Kingdom of Ilia, it could only pinch its nose and admit it, because their army performed so poorly at the beginning of the war.

Weilin is not interested in the fight between countries now, but he knows that he is about to go to the battlefield.

On the last day of September, Weilin received an order from the Corps Headquarters to arrive at the junction of Xigas Province and Xiqiu Province before October 20th, and to station in Stone Tree City, Rock City and Multi-Iron City to guard against the dwarf army northwest of the Misty River.

The day after receiving the Corps order, Weilin sent out a messenger to summon the troops to return.

This group of people have been looting outside for more than three months, and it is time to come back to do business.

Under the night, on the hill, Weilin discussed the next situation with Kyle while making tea.

"My lord, there is a duchy in the north of Xigas Province. Why didn't the kingdom move troops in this direction, but only sent three legions to guard here, and then did nothing." Kyle picked up a glass of wine, drank half a glass, and asked with some doubts.

"There are many complicated factors here. If there were no rules set before the war, the kingdom would definitely concentrate its strength to deal with the dwarf Duke Haldor first."

"Is that so?"

The war has been going on for half a year, but there has been no legendary battle. Perhaps this is the hidden rules that the master has implicitly told him.

Some things cannot be said directly, otherwise they will be sensed by the gods.

It was eight o'clock in the evening, and it was time for fate to guide it again.

[Six months later, an undead disaster will break out in the West Hill Province of the Ironforge Dwarf Mountain Kingdom. Please treat it with caution. 】

Hearing this news, Weilin stood up suddenly.

Kyle looked at his master's abnormal behavior and asked with concern: "Master, what happened."

"It's okay, let me be quiet."

Weilin sat down again, supporting his chin with his hand, thinking in his heart.

A few months ago, a demon disaster broke out in the Stone Hill Province of the Ironforge Dwarf Mountain Kingdom.

A few months later, an undead disaster will break out in the West Hill Province next to it.

Good man, all the troubles are caused by the dwarves. Could it be that the dwarf mountain god has offended an evil god, and he is always targeting his faith area to make trouble.

Affecting the entire province, it is a big deal, but it is also a small matter.

For the sake of his own life, Weilin decided to tell his uncle about this secretly.

Eleven years ago, the cursed mask incident told him that there are some things that the elders should know.

Back in the tent, Weilin began to write letters in the family code.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Weilin found six guards and asked them to take their identity tokens and escort the letter to the headquarters of the 27th Corps and hand it to the staff officer Bamond.

"The content of this letter is very important. I hope you will not let me down."

"Don't worry, lord. Even if we all die, this letter will definitely not be a problem." The leading low-level silver knight answered with a firm tone and a serious face.

"Go."

Weilin stepped forward to help him put on his helmet and let them go.

The six-man team set out overnight with the letter and headed for the province of Serop.

...

In an abandoned mine in the province of Hill, a gray-robed man entered the cave, and the flesh on his body gradually faded, revealing the dark bones inside.

Wherever he passed, whether it was the lowest zombie or the skeleton with only instinct, they all knelt on the ground, as if welcoming their king.

In the deepest part of the cave, the soul flame of a dark knight rekindled and sat up from the skeleton throne.

"How?"

The whisper of darkness made the black-robed skeleton bow slightly.

"In the Stone Hill Province, 330,000 square kilometers of land, 837 abandoned mines, and more than 8 million undead are all ready."
