From Skaven to God-King of War

The long candle burned out, and the turbid wax oil condensed into ugly wax marks on the table.

The collapse of the rat people on the main continent was an expected thing, and no party had any doubts about it.

No matter how these guys whine or struggle, it cannot change the fact that they exist as consumables.

Even the temple of the great god collapsed in the human attack. At that last moment, the poor guy was still dreaming and dancing in front of the temple. The poor rat man from the main continent was killed by the rat. The poor Skaven Priest selected in battle.

The temple collapsed in the desolation at the junction of this province, and all the rat-man supervisory troops who came here also fell in this desolate place.

In the final stage of the collapse, Rat War did not give these guys an order to retreat, so they still stayed here.

This temple collapsed in the desolation, and no one cared about it. The most loyal guards of the great god failed to rush to defend it, and they did not even know the existence of this temple.

If we talk about fault, this must be Shuzhan's fault.

This arrogant guy puts the outcome above the gods, which is a big taboo.

But no one can judge him for the time being.

After the royal knights took this barren area where the provinces meet into their arms, they did not watch from a distance. The prince stood on the hill, with endless corpses piled up behind him.

There should be a different kind of light on his body at this time.

Be a hero.

The royal knights now have the initiative. Whether they wait and see, or rely on the unsatisfactory battle situation of the noble coalition to force the great nobles to make some concessions, these are all feasible.

They represent the interests of the royal family of this decadent empire. They are not the real guards who defend this decadent and bloated empire.

But the final choice was unexpected.

There was no coercion, no wait-and-see, or even no delay. Under the leadership of the leading prince, the wind-like knights rushed down from the desolate mountains and launched an attack towards the rear of the Eastern Expeditionary Force.

The outcome of the war is determined by decisions and victories, especially on such a huge battlefield where two empires compete with each other.

The decision of this leading prince will change the situation of the war, but it is hard to say what the final result will be.

Shu Zhan was not qualified to make a complete and accurate judgment on what happened on the battlefield. If he could do this, there would be no way for him to be blocked by the coalition of nobles.

But as an excellent general, there is only one thing he is very good at: making decisions, implementing them, waiting for opportunities, and seizing that opportunity.

Rat War waited for an opportunity. Amidst the flames and light, a powerful team launched an attack on the unsuspecting rat people from behind.

The moment of collision doomed the Eastern Expeditionary Force to suffer heavy losses.

In the huge positions spread out along the extended front, not all places were so alert.

A large amount of supplies were piled at the rear of the Eastern Expeditionary Force, the exchange office necessary for the transfer of merit system, and the rat caravans that kept coming here one after another.

Supplies and commodities were ignited by fire almost instantly. The rat-man supervisory team who was recording and exchanging meticulously and the frightened rat-man supervisory team were all killed in a single encounter.

Spears, armor, and a batch of brand new chain armor have been sent to the Eastern Expeditionary Force. The craftsmanship appears to be very rough. You can see a large number of burrs and sharp protrusions on these chain armors. It is foreseeable that wearing these The experience of chain armor may not be that comfortable, and it is obviously a rushed product, but no matter what, these chain armors are real metal armors.

The words of the council masters are not empty talk. After all, no matter what it is, when the required quantity and all the rat warriors are linked to such a thing, the situation will inevitably change slightly.

Too much is needed, too much is needed.

But now the first batch has been sent to the rear of the Eastern Expeditionary Force. Unfortunately, before they could be used, flames and killings came first.

Of course, flames cannot shake steel, but these brand-new chain armors are far from the only ones in this batch of goods and supplies.

Dried meat, dried cave mushrooms, leather armor, spears, wood, the vertical pupils of the Nether-Eyed Human Race, some random trophies, and blood mushrooms.

Here, wood is the main force of burning. The construction of positions and tunnels allows the rat people to continuously cut down trees from everywhere. These things are finally brought to the rear of the battlefield by the rat caravans.

Well, it's not just wood, those dried cave mushrooms are also a very good fuel, and they explode into a ball of flames when the flames lick them.

There are also blood mushrooms. The burning of blood mushrooms does not bring much special effects. These evil things that absorb flesh and blood and are born from death behave like ordinary mushrooms in the flames. They are ignited and then transformed. Become a ball of charred ashes.

Of course, it is not that the rat people are unable to respond to the attack by the royal knights. In fact, there are indeed some ruthless characters in the rear.

The rat trolls also fell in the rear area. They exist as items that can be exchanged for merit. Like the giant rats, they are locked in thick iron cages and placed randomly in this place. .

A docile and stable character may be a good advantage for the ratmen, but it is hard to say whether it is an advantage for the rat trolls themselves, or for the giant ratmen behind the rat trolls.

These deformed flesh and blood weapons tore open the cage that bound them in chaos and fire.

The tall rat trolls were enough to resist the impact of these royal knights, but there was a problem. The environment on the scene was obviously too chaotic at this time.

Rat War noticed the chaos in the back, but he was not so panicked and angry. The flag was waved.

A large number of ratmen troops were mobilized.

It was a more fierce attack. Like a horn, all the ratmen warriors in the front positions began to charge. These sneaky guys appeared from the gullies and hidden tunnels, gritting their teeth, running forward with fear and excitement, holding their weapons tightly, but the earth bombarded by rounds of elemental chaos cannons really became bumpy.

In order to deal with the suddenly radical and dangerous ratmen, and also to deal with those dangerous deformed guys mixed in the ordinary army, the noble coalition opened a buffer zone in front of the line with the ratmen, in order to keep a distance, and also to activate and clear out the rat trolls mixed in the ordinary ratmen warriors in advance.

The effect is not bad.

But the ratmen obviously will not let them clear the isolation belt as they wish. In order to make up for the disadvantage of weapons, close combat is a helpless choice, but it is also effective.

Pulling enough distance, the two sides crowded together, and many things did not have such a big gap.

The battlefield full of pits and depressions was left in the pulling of the two sides.

The noble coalition still pulled out the isolation belt, but the price was the never-ending artillery fire on the battlefield. The roar of artillery fire was not without any sacrifice, and the elemental disorder cannon of the ghost eye people was not that mature.

Excessive use brought a terrifying damage speed.

These things are not spears that can be cast at will. Every bit of damage requires a spell master and inscription craftsman to carry out tedious and complicated inspections and repairs.

During this period of time, almost half of the magic disorder cannons in the noble coalition have been broken down, and the firepower density on the battlefield has obviously dropped greatly. At this cost, this isolation zone was opened up with great difficulty.

The ghost-eyed people are not the iron men with cold minds. Undead, their soldiers have a higher morale threshold, but collapse is also not absent.

Especially after more and more soldiers who were forcibly conscripted into the army came to this battlefield with confusion.

The great nobles are not stingy. As some smart people, they also know what to give in what situation. The opportunity to become a noble is also placed in the war by them.

It seems that as long as you work hard, as long as you are brave, then the things that seem to never come to you are also a little more hopeful.

This is very effective, but how to say it, it works on the first day, the second day, the third day, the fourth day, this war is continuous and seems to have no end.

Morale has begun to decline uncontrollably.

Every day there are crazy ratmen who charge desperately, and cruel battles are going on every day. Even if you try your best, death is still inevitable.

The rats died more, and those noble knights always emphasized this point. Yes! That's right! It's true that the rats died more. In that indescribable miracle, in the charge of those noble lords, and in the weapons they wielded, so many rats died every day.

But damn it! Damn it! Why does this damn war seem to have no end!

This isolation zone was opened up for those ordinary human soldiers, for those farmers who were farmers not long ago, but became soldiers and began to wield weapons in an instant.

In order to reduce casualties, it is also to leave some space for human soldiers on the front line, relieve the pressure that is hard to let go, and save the morale that continues to decline.

But how to say it, although the commander of the noble coalition seems to be completely different from the rat war in every aspect, there is only one thing in common.

Of course, he did this not for the unfortunate people who were forced to go to the battlefield. It was not really for them. If he really had such good intentions, then the forced conscription would not have happened at all, and the provinces behind the front would not have been almost empty in such a short time.

Saving morale is for this war, and the same is true for forced conscription. You can clearly see this high-handed perspective in Rat War. Although compared with the commander of the noble coalition, Rat War is more unconcealed and more naked.

Before this breath was relieved for long, the rats once again started a desperate attack.

The situation became very bad.

It's just the same, the decision must be made.

When the front-line army charged desperately, more rat troops were concentrated to surround the intruding team in the rear.

It was like abandoning the front army and defense in a panic and dealing with the situation in the rear desperately. The situation seemed to be like this.

Of course, it doesn't matter what the situation is. It's time to make a decision.

The safest option is to completely swallow up the Ratman's madly charging vanguard troops, and then start to advance. It won't be long before the defense line that Ratman has finally swallowed up and the progress made in the war will be pushed back almost instantly, and may even be pushed back a large section, and all the work will be in vain.

This is the safest option.

After all, the commander of the noble coalition, the somewhat ordinary middle-aged knight standing in front of the sand table, did not expect the appearance of the royal knight.

Or to be more radical, this is undoubtedly an opportunity. The arm passed across the sand table, and the black representing the Ratman Eastern Expeditionary Force was instantly split into two.

How to choose, whether to sell the suddenly appearing royal knight, no matter what, the weakening of the imperial family is not a disadvantage for him.

At this moment, the ordinary middle-aged knight, who had been stuck in Ratman for a long time, the commander of the noble coalition fell into thought.

Obviously, Ratman overlooked a big problem, that is, the contradictions between the various parties in the human empire are the same as those in the rat kingdom.

If he was going to be killed one day, and there happened to be an army led by a rat priest not far away, it was most likely that those guys would watch Shu Zhan being killed indifferently.

His plan might fail, and there was nothing that could be done about it. After all, apart from the military clash, the two sides were only half-understood in other aspects.

Whether it was the rat people's understanding of the Ghost Eye People, or the Ghost Eye People's understanding of the rat people.

One side regarded the other as a weakling who would definitely be defeated and sent to the altar, and the other side regarded the other as a dangerous beast from the wilderness.

It was a superficial impression.

The commander of the noble coalition made a decision. Should we say that the Ghost Eye People and the rat people are indeed different? If this happened, then Shu Zhan would almost certainly be killed by the rat priests.

But the leader of the noble coalition issued an order to march.

After a long period of retreat and defense, the noble coalition finally began to actively advance again.

This hard-to-chew turtle shell finally had a crack.
