Heart of Empire

Chapter 574: Recover the Fir Collar

Views:

After the problem of the dark jungle has been largely resolved, the situation that the Kingdom of Schindler needs to face in this war has become very optimistic.

Within the kingdom's sphere of influence, the east and west battlefields have basically won victories.

On the eastern battlefield, during several months of fighting, the Schindler army led by Dane himself wiped out the enemies of Broken Dragon Peak, rescued the Green Dragon Clan, and went deep into the dark jungle, not only thoroughly eradicating The old nest of the enemy was destroyed, and the cemetery base of New Nancy was built, with millions of undead.

And on the western battlefield, Patience has also played very well in the past few months.

It has to be said that the entire battle situation and strategy are dynamically related.

While Dane had won one victory after another on the Eastern Front, the situation on Patience's side was equally good.

When the battle of Broken Dragon Peak just started, Pei Xinsi and the demon army from the confused city completed a good cooperation, repulsing the enemy in front of the Iron Horse Grip once, and in the subsequent pursuit of victory , eliminated a large number of undead.

At that time, the soldiers of the Peixinsi Group had advanced under the Blackwood City.

In fact, taking advantage of the high morale, Peixinsi can attack on a large scale, and with the cooperation of the demon allied forces, complete the capture of Blackwood City.

However, in the end she chose to act cautiously and did not fight so much.

One was that the battle situation at Broken Dragon Peak was not very clear at that time.

The second is that the human soldiers of the 4th, 5th, and 6th legions under Patience, and even a considerable number of non-commissioned officers, were suspicious of the news announced by the upper echelon of the group army, claiming that the demon army was an ally.

These two factors gave Patience a little headache. She chose to withdraw her strength and retreat to the grip of the iron horse.

Before the Iron Horse's Grip, the undead of Blackwood City invested a lot of troops, but after losing successive losses and suffering heavy losses in the war that lasted for almost half a year, they naturally couldn't continue their offensive. In the absence of further reinforcements, the only 20,000 or so undead in Blackwood City huddled behind the city wall and did not move.

This creates de facto peace. The undead did not have enough troops to continue to fight the iron horse's grip, and Patience was not willing to do it for the time being.

However, when the battle in the dark jungle gradually became clear, the Schindlers became bold again.

When the news that Dane established New Nancy in the Dark Forest and basically eliminated the power of the Church of the Damned reached Patience's ears, she immediately assembled her troops and headed towards Blackwood City. go ahead.

After several months of psychological construction, human soldiers are finally not so resistant to fighting side by side with demons—of course, the so-called fighting side by side is naturally not the combination of armies of two races. To achieve that step, Still very difficult. This cooperation is just that the armies of the two sides do not attack or hostile to each other, and cooperate with each other strategically. However, Patience never uses troops of two different races together to avoid accidents.

Under the guidance of such a strategic thinking, Constantine's 20,000 demon army went around to the west of Blackwood City, while the group army in Patience's hands was arranged in the south and east.

After agreeing on a time, they launched an attack on Heimu City at the same time.

Under the joint attack of humans and demons, the undead army in Blackwood City was broken without even holding on for two days.

This is a very normal outcome. After several wars in Blackwood City, the city's defense facilities are no longer as complete as they were at the beginning. What's more, the city itself is not a military stronghold such as a fortress or castle. In addition, the strength of the undead is really too small compared to the power that Patience possesses. With 20,000 undead troops, it must be an impossible task to deal with an attack of almost 40,000 to 50,000 human troops, plus 20,000 demons.

After capturing Blackwood City and purging the undead in the city, the war in the western part of the Kingdom of Schindler basically subsided. Under the protection of their strong military strength, the mainland of Schindler has not been directly attacked. Not only that, the active attack in the direction of Duanlongfeng on the eastern front directly strangled the future enemies outside the border, completely destroying the foundation of the Church of the Cursed. The war on the Western Front is now over, and the entire territory of Florence has been regained by Schindler.

The people of the Marquis of the Bull and the Duchy of Florence have completely changed their views on Schindler during the half-year war.

In the past, Schindler was treated as an intruder here. This kind of impression and attitude is exactly what some people with bad intentions take advantage of. During the period before the undead war started, Schindler made a lot of efforts in these areas. Of course, there are some effects, but they are not too obvious.

But now, as the overlord of the country, Schindler defended the human world with the swords held in the hands of the soldiers and the blood shed by the soldiers during the half-year war.

Of course, Schindler did this to defend his family and defend his country from enemies, but objectively speaking, it was Florence and the Duke of Bull who directly benefited. Without Schindler's army, it is absolutely impossible for these two countries to rely on their own strength to survive this undead disaster.

Look at the next door, Pudri, which was supposed to be stronger than Florence, has now been wiped out. One-third of the country's citizens died, and one-third faced the threat of undead in the enemy-occupied areas all the time. The luckiest one-third did not fare much better. Ruined refugees.

Only when there is comparison can there be a sense of happiness.

In the past, the people of Florence may not have looked down upon Schindler, who grew up from the wilderness, and were proud of their status as the Holy Allies.

But looking at it now, the Holy Alliance is obviously not as reliable as Schindler.

During the half year of undead natural disasters, people have gradually realized that there seems to be nothing wrong with becoming a vassal state of Schindler.

There is strong military protection, peace, and the quality of life has not been greatly affected. It is nothing more than some extreme nationalists who are still making trouble.

However, in the absence of a popular base, it is really not easy to make any disturbances.

What's more, don't think that the intelligence network established by the Black Hand Academy is for nothing. During the war, there were still many guys who wanted to do things.

Among these people, there are schemers and careerists with brains, and there are also lurkers who curse the church. If there is a wrong kill, there is no miss, and the agents of the Black Hand Academy will take care of it all.
