From Skaven to God-King of War

The ferocious knights did not show any fear or retreat until the moment when they were completely annihilated.

Loud noises appeared in the human army, accompanied by angry roars.

That was the last struggle of the distorted giant rats. Huge losses occurred, unexpected losses for the human side and for the commander hidden in the noble coalition.

The exploding scarlet flesh infected a large number of magic knights and ordinary human warriors. Death was going on in the spread of distortion.

The ferocious knights were like this, too strong, or too stunned.

The ratman runners began to retreat. Taking advantage of this time, they were not really fighting hard, nor were they prepared to fight hard.

The morale of the ratmen was encouraged, and the morale on the verge of collapse was boosted again when they witnessed the black flag coming down.

Even many ordinary rat warriors, young rats, were more excited and fanatical. They admired the powerful. This was a very common situation among the rats. Unfortunately, even if they were fanatical, excited, and suppressed their fear, they were still greeted with death.

Whether they were young rats or rat warriors, their positioning had always been like that, cannon fodder.

The rat warriors crossed a long distance, about a quarter of this chaotic battlefield, and rushed through the human formation until they came to the front of these army mages.

The army mages were not familiar with this situation. Obviously, they had never encountered such a situation.

This was the power of heroes.

Most of the army mages only had time to throw a round of spells, fireballs, rock spells, ice cones, acid, or something else. These things were thrown into the chaotic battlefield. There was no need to aim too much, just find a general direction and throw them out. That was about it. The rats were too dense, so dense that every mage who fell could clear a small area of ​​rats.

But the effect is not great. Soon, the rats will come back again, and there is no sign of any reduction.

Chaotic sounds echoed in the ears, from sharp screams, shouts of fear, desperate wails, excited roars, pious whispers, these messy sounds gathered together to form this noisy sound.

In this noisy sound, Rat War rushed in front of the army mage.

Most of the army mages did not react. They received the order to retreat, but the transmission of the order seemed to be much slower.

These army mages did not contact the command system of the noble coalition.

When they got the news, it was too late.

The violent guy had torn open the last line of battle and arrived in front of them.

He was not scared to do anything. All kinds of spells were thrown at Rat War. The messy and mottled spells filled the sky all at once.

But there was no particularly big effect. A dark flag was waving.

All the spells were intercepted.

A brutal slaughter began.

At the beginning of this war, the Fierce Knights and most of the accompanying mages were consumed like a piece of gold.

After the human side buried all the Fierce Knights, they freed up their hands. In the large-scale mobilization of the army, a large number of human troops were mobilized to prepare to surround and kill the arrogant guy Shu Zhan.

Shu Zhan couldn't be as reckless as he was just now, and he was arrogant, but he was not stupid.

He began to retreat.

At this time, the role of the guards was reflected. Although this group of guys who followed Shu Zhan into the depths of the human army did not catch up with Shu Zhan in the end, they could support the most solid passage when Shu Zhan needed to retreat.

Shu Zhan left and retreated into the depths of the rat army.

The first battle between the two sides ended in this situation.

Afterwards, the Eastern Expeditionary Force and this team of noble coalition forces fought in this wilderness for three consecutive days, ending in a situation where neither could do anything to the other.

The rats retreated in large numbers, leaving behind corpses. The bright light that served as the node of the battlefield also dimmed as a magic knight collapsed on the ground.

The rat war must be taken seriously.

These guys are more difficult than imagined.

Yanlian Province.

The reason why the nobles were so concerned was not only the threat posed by the rats, but also the fact that the knights who arrived at the rear of Lianyan Province along the river not long ago were not simple.

The Lianyan family quickly made a decision and bowed down in front of the prince.

This made all the nobles more anxious.

It's time to start fighting for a title. Since the prince wants to make a fuss in this war, let him see which side can represent strength better.

More things and resources began to be invested in the front line.

Including a large number of magic equipment.

The prince also broke into Lianyan Province with his knights and began to expel the rat warlords entrenched in this area.

It seems a bit deflated, but a very embarrassing point appeared.

We have to admit that the Human Empire, as a complete and huge empire, is indeed a benchmark for the entire Skaven Empire to a certain extent, and even has the potential to surpass the Skaven Empire.

This can be seen from a change in the Rat War.

The Rat War has begun to be micro-managed.

It was no longer just waving flags and all the ratmen swarming up, but they really began to arrange the battle line and plan the battlefield.

With outposts, tunnels, and complex underground networks, the rat war began to arrange defense lines based on two occupied human cities.

Frontal conflicts occur every day.

But the intensity is not that great. It is controlled at the unit of 10,000. Every day, at least 100,000 ratmen will be deployed on the front battlefield to fight with the human team.

Without all of them, relying on the magic network and the huge ritual, the benefits of all of them are limited. It may not be able to defeat the human side and it will be difficult to hold on. The Eastern Expeditionary Force will start to flee in an all-out manner.

In fact, a full-scale flee is not a big problem. Soon, in a few days, these guys will be summoned again, and then they can be pressed again.

The key is the window period that will appear after the army is defeated.

Various teams were divided, and the rat warlords who were defeated in Lianyan City were recalled and deployed to this gradually lengthening battle line after replenishing the army.

Shu Zhan is worried about a problem.

If the Eastern Expeditionary Force is completely defeated and the window period appears, then the human side will be able to drive Shu Zhan back to the Golden Province, or be more radical and go beyond the Eastern Expeditionary Force that is regrouping and eat up the Golden Province.

Then the problem is really serious at this time.

Shu Zhan may be able to run back, but the Eastern Expeditionary Force may face another annihilation.

At this time, if they really have to fight hard, the rat people are not without a chance of winning, and the balance of victory is even more inclined to the rat people.

However, the opponents they have to face are not only the noble coalition in front of them, but also the plateau people on the plateau and the royal knights in the Rock Province. These are what Shu Zhan needs to deal with.

Shu Zhan is deliberately avoiding the decisive battle, or he hopes to raise his chances of winning a little more.

Shu Zhan is indeed an excellent commander. At least he can see these problems quickly and is not always so reckless.

The commander of the noble coalition also made the same decision.

Both sides are avoiding a decisive battle.

The Royal Knights that appeared were indeed like a catfish.

The defeated rat warlords were used as chess pieces and fell beside the noble coalition that broke into this unknown province.

The tunnels, in order to compress their range of activities, presented a semi-encirclement posture.

The intensity of the war between humans and rats has reached the peak since the beginning of the battle.

Both sides are fiercely fighting for these pieces of withered land, fighting in various tunnels, one side to expand its own space for activities, and the other side to suppress the other side's space for activities.

Both sides are looking for an opportunity.

After the defense line and formation are set up, look for the opportunity to completely crush the opponent in one fell swoop.

Of course, this does not mean becoming a gambler, although in fact Rat War does not mind becoming a gambler.

That opportunity is more of a cumulative concept.

A mistake, a defeat, a gap in the defense line, a disparity in logistics operations, and a continuous decline in morale.

Various factors accumulated, and the opportunity appeared, the last straw that broke the camel's back appeared, and the outcome was completely decided.

This is the most stable competition.

It is also a choice that cannot be avoided. If possible, Rat War would definitely prefer to rush forward and tear the enemy to pieces, but unfortunately, this vision is difficult to achieve at present.

The rats are not without advantages.

The young rats that are constantly sent from afar, the various equipment that are transported, and the blood mushrooms that are constantly sprouting in the blood pool are all advantages.

The deformed and twisted Rat Empire has dedicated everything to the war.

In terms of the support for the war, this is incomparable to the human empire in any way.

But there is a prerequisite for these advantages to be successfully brought into play.

That is a smooth logistics route.

This is why Rat War has completely laid out the front line, and the retreat of the Eastern Expeditionary Force cannot be cut off.

But now there is a problem, a very serious problem.

The Eastern Expeditionary Force has pinned the noble coalition forces firmly at the border of this nameless province, but their logistics route is not stable.

The rat warlords are currently in a state of retreat in Lianyan Province.

They look so miserable that they are about to collapse.

They can't be blamed entirely on the rat warlords for this. After all, it's not that they didn't work hard, but that their opponents were too heroic.

These royal knights rushed forward like little suns, shining with strong impact, and they could walk on dangerous terrain like flat ground.

No, they are little suns. In this gloomy world, these guys covered in golden light are no different from little suns.

Not to mention charging the second-rate rat army of the rat warlords whose troops are mostly in low morale, even if they challenge the Eastern Expeditionary Force in Shu Zhan's hands, they can charge back and forth without any pressure.

Not to mention that there were 20,000 golden knights in front of them. The rat warlords who had abused Lianyan Province and corrupted the area were dumbfounded. They were beaten back again and again, and one of them was sent to see the great god.

Even if the remaining few were not driven out at the first time, they were still struggling to hold on.

With the current trend, it won’t be long before all the rat warlords will get out of Lianyan Province. It’s okay if they lose, but if Lianyan Province is occupied by this royal knight, then the rear of the rats on the main continent will be in danger.

The worst case scenario is that the Golden Province falls, and the Eastern Expeditionary Force is surrounded and defeated.

Undoubtedly, this is a very bad situation.

But in this situation, there will always be people who stand up for themselves.

Yes, not for the Rat Empire, not for more rats, maybe for the great god, but more for themselves.

Qi is one of the last few rat warlords lingering in Lianyan Province.

It is easy to defeat the rats, but it is quite difficult to completely wipe them out.

Often in a charge, these royal knights can defeat a rat army and send the rats fleeing.

But as long as these rats are not completely killed, it won't be long before you see these guys gather together again and show up in this area again.

The rats hide here and there and continue to be defeated in this province, but as long as the leading rat warlord is not killed, these guys will always show up again soon.

This is why the rat warlords can always survive in this huge disparity.

These guys don't want to retreat so easily, and they are also desperately seeking more.

Not because of other reasons, they don't want to bear the name of failure, and they are still rushing to clean up the small mountain settlements in this province.

Those who want to climb higher always want to do better and do more.

Reputation is a very precious thing for these young rat warlords.

It's just that this thing is too easy to get and too easy to lose.

Let alone them, even Rat War has to take this into consideration. He didn't fight the noble coalition army in the first time. Isn't he also worried about his reputation? If he loses and destroys all the troops in his hands, the price is unacceptable to Rat War.

Not to mention these young rat warlords.

Qi is ready to do something. For himself, he must do something. He can't run away like this.
