The flames of war were not just ignited in the Luersun Kingdom.
At the same time that Count Antusor died in battle, more than 2,400 kilometers away from here in the north, at the junction of the Principality of Drake and the Frankish Kingdom, an army that was a mixture of soldiers from the Maro Empire and the Frankish Kingdom was far larger than the Glorious Legion. A huge army that was several times larger was in a fierce exchange of fire with another much smaller army with only a few thousand people at the border.
However, the situation on the battlefield clearly favored this army with only a few thousand people. The coalition organized by the Maro Empire and the Frankish Kingdom was completely suppressed from beginning to end, with very little resistance.
The commander-in-chief of the coalition forces responsible for commanding this operation, General Maro Raven of the Malo Empire, had a gloomy face. He looked at the flashes of fire representing magic shells in the sky and listened to the violent explosions coming from his formation. He couldn't hold back the anger in his heart any longer.
"Where is our magic artillery brigade? Why haven't we caught up yet?"
The deputy commander of the coalition forces, Marquis Goodall, sighed, shook his head and said: "There is no way, the speed of the magic artillery can't keep up. It is estimated that it is still at least twenty kilometers away from here."
"Then why are the magic artillery of the guys on the opposite side ready? But not ours?" Marquis Raven said angrily.
Marquis Goodall smiled bitterly and said: "Raven, the guys on the opposite side have obviously been ready to fight us here. Of course, they have already deployed magic artillery. But we have to travel several times from the empire. How can we be as prepared as they are after traveling hundreds of kilometers? If we didn't have a complete road now, it would be a question of whether we could transport those bulky magic artillery."
Upon hearing this, Marquis Raven frowned even more tightly.
"Why are our magic artillery so bulky? Obviously the magic artillery produced by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can be easily dragged around. It is much lighter and has much stronger firepower.'
Marquis Guldo's bitter smile was full of helplessness.
"It would be great if the people from the Magic Ordnance Research Institute can develop magic artillery. Who has the qualifications to ask them to make it the same as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. If we really have that ability, we don't need to start this war at all, right? ?"
Marquis Raven thought for a while with a sullen face, then nodded slowly.
"Speaking of which, I always thought that Grand Duke Caroline of the Duke of Drake was a very wise woman who would obey us honestly. At least she would remain neutral. But I didn't expect that she would unexpectedly stand on Xinfei's side this time. The Chamber of Commerce is really unexpected.”
Marquis Guldo raised a meaningful smile on his lips.
"I heard... When Grand Duke Caroline was still the princess, she once had contact with Xu Yi, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the relationship seemed to be very close. Perhaps because of this, she supported the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. ?”
"Hey, women, after all, are creatures that are easily dominated by emotions." Marquis Raven shook his head with disdain on his face. "She didn't think about it carefully. Even if the Principality of Dral can get support from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, what can it do as a small principality to fight against our Malo Empire?"
"But we are blocked here now, aren't we?" Marquis Guldo spread his hands. "And don't forget, even if we deal with Archduke Caroline, there is still a more troublesome and more difficult woman waiting for us."
Marquis Raven's expression changed slightly: "Queen Sevini? This guy is said to have a better relationship with Xu Yi. Even her only son is said to have been born from an affair with Xu Yi. The strength of the Lampali Kingdom It is far from comparable to the Principality of Drake. In addition, the magic industry has been developed the longest and most maturely in the Lampali Kingdom. If she is determined to support the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, it will be really troublesome."
"This is something we have expected a long time ago. There is nothing surprising." Marquis Gurdo said. "In comparison, I'm more concerned about how the guys in the Sark Kingdom are doing now."

About 1,300 kilometers away to the west is the new northern border of the Sark Kingdom and the Lampali Kingdom.
Compared with the original boundary between the two countries, which was bounded by the Murto Mountains, this new border has been extended to the north by nearly a hundred kilometers, and a large area of land originally belonging to the southern part of the Sac Kingdom has been divided into the Kingdom of Lampali.
Therefore, the place guarded by the Northern Army of the Lampali Kingdom was also moved a hundred kilometers north, which was considered to be deep into the hinterland of the former Sak Kingdom.
But in this way, the natural barrier of the Muerto Mountains was also lost. As a result, the Zhenbei Army's defense in the north has been somewhat stretched, and it is far less thorough than the previous defense of the Muerto Mountains.
Fortunately, the Sark Kingdom has been very honest in the past few years and has not caused any problems, so it has continued like this.
But today. This imprecise defense has aroused the covetousness of some people.
A team of about 3,000 people quietly bypassed the woods outside Randy Town and moved towards the Northern Army garrison in Lampali Kingdom Town, west of Randy Town.
There are usually five hundred soldiers of the Northern Army of the Lampali Kingdom stationed in this townhouse, responsible for the defense of a ten-kilometer radius centered on the town of Randy.
With only 500 people responsible for the defense of such a large area, it is naturally impossible to cover everything.
Therefore, this 3,000-strong Sark Kingdom army successfully sneaked into the vicinity of the town. There were no obstacles in the way.
Seeing the lights of the townhouse in the distance as it was approaching night, this brigade from the Greedy Wolf Legion surrounded it as planned.
Their purpose was to annihilate all the 500 Lampali Kingdom's Northern Army troops in this town and capture all the military supplies in the town.
The Lampali Kingdom's Northern Army has always been strongly supported by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and has a large number of military magic machinery and equipment.
Although there are only five hundred people, they have military magic machinery and equipment that is almost comparable to the entire Greedy Legion.
If they fight head-on, these three thousand people may not be the opponents of the five hundred Zhenbei Army.
But if an ambush is adopted now, the role that military magic machines can play will be much smaller.
As long as you are close, the outcome depends on the number of people.
Three thousand Greedy Wolf Legion soldiers quietly moved closer to the town less than 200 meters away. Then a whistle suddenly sounded in the night sky, and all the soldiers rushed out from their hiding places and rushed towards the town house with all their strength.
You must rush in before the Zhenbei Army in the town can react and start a hand-to-hand battle with the Zhenbei Army. Only in this way can you hope to win!
However, even though the three thousand Greedy Wolf Legion soldiers had rushed outside the walls of the town, there was still no response inside the town.
No soldiers from the Zhenbei Army appeared, and no shouts of killing came from inside. This townhouse seemed to have suddenly died.
After a moment's hesitation, the Greedy Wolf Legion in charge of commanding the three thousand soldiers sent another code signal, and a group of people rushed into the townhouse.
However, when the first soldier climbed up the wall and was about to climb directly into the townhouse, a bright red light suddenly burst out from inside the wall.
In the land outside the wall, there were also balls of fiery red light bursting out.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom -"
A series of dense explosions resounded throughout the night sky, and the flames of the explosions instantly turned the sky that had just begun to darken due to nightfall into a red glow.
Most of the three thousand Greedy Wolf Legion soldiers who surrounded the town center were reduced by half in the blink of an eye, and most of the remaining soldiers lost their combat effectiveness in the explosion.
In a short period of time, out of the original three thousand soldiers of the Greedy Wolf Legion, only less than five hundred were left with combat effectiveness.
But when the remaining five hundred people knew they had fallen into the trap and were about to retreat, the sound of countless crossbow arrows piercing the air came from behind.
After a few breaths passed, the hundreds of people who were still standing were all shot into sieves by crossbow arrows. Outside the wall of the town, there was not a single greedy legionnaire who could stand up.
"Hmph, a bunch of little thieves, do they really think they can escape our surveillance?"
The security officer of Randy Town Town and the captain of the Fourth Team of the Third Brigade of the Northern Army in Lampali Kingdom Town, Deng Pulu, appeared from the darkness outside the town wall and spat disdainfully at the corpses of the Greedy Wolf Legion soldiers everywhere. Foaming, he turned to look northwest, and then took out a small magic phone box from his arms.
Just as he was about to make the call, he saw the red light on the magic call box suddenly light up, indicating that there was a communication request for access.
Deng Pulu chuckled, pressed the button, and connected the communication.
"Hey, Templeton, how are you doing there? Are there any mice from the Sac Kingdom looking for you?" A rough voice sounded from the magic call box.
If you are a familiar person, just by hearing this voice, you will be able to tell that the guy on the other side of the magic call box must be Ryan, the security officer of the Tower Shield Town Town Center more than 20 kilometers away from here.
"Yes, we have just solved the problem. Where are you?" Deng Plu asked.
"Haha, I said they were just a bunch of rats, so there is nothing to worry about. They were all killed, no problem." Ryan responded.
"That's good." Deng Pulu nodded. "You don't need me to tell you what to do next, right?"
"Hey, do you need to say this? The higher ups have already told me. Okay, hurry up and tidy up your place, wait until I have tidied up here, and then we will meet again, and then we will go teach these gangsters a lesson. The bastards of Ke Kingdom!”
"Okay, keep in touch at any time." Deng Pulu hung up the communication, looked up at the still quiet night sky, and let out a breath.
Since the last war with the Sark Kingdom, it has been a peaceful life for almost ten years.
Now the idiots in the Sark Kingdom think that they can take advantage of the Kandra Empire and the Malo Empire to declare war on the Principality of Standing and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce to launch a counterattack against the Kingdom of Lampali. They are really thinking too much.
"Hey, I just want to let you idiots know that the current Lampali Kingdom is ten times more powerful than before!" (~^~)
