From Wild Mage to Wizard King

Under the attack of the spear, the gold, silver and treasures on the carriage were also exposed.

Looking at the dozens of carts of gold, silver and treasures in front of them, the cavalry team also stopped.

In such a chaotic situation, there are still convoys outside. Anyone who is not a fool knows that these convoys are abnormal.

Moreover, this convoy has so many guards, which is not right at a glance, but I didn't expect to really catch a big fish.

The leading Qianhu took a look at the gold, silver and treasures in front of him, turned his head and called the name of a ten-household, and pointed at the gold, silver and treasures in front of him.

"Take your people and guard these gold, silver and treasures until the follow-up support arrives."

"Yes."

The called Baihu responded loudly.

After the Baihu responded, the Qianhu led the cavalry team to run towards the city not far away.

And the ten-household took his own ten-man team and silently guarded beside these gold, silver and treasures.

Although so many gold, silver and treasures are easy to make people jealous, as legion soldiers, they still restrained their desires.

You know, Roland's military rules are very strict. If they dare to steal, the best result is to be interviewed and confiscated. If they refuse to admit it afterwards, or if it affects the war situation, expulsion or execution is not impossible.

Moreover, Roland treated them well. It is not worth committing a crime for stealing a little gold and silver.

Therefore, the ten-man team was very cautious to keep a distance from the gold and silver treasures and dared not approach.

It was not until the infantry arrived in the rear that the ten-man team breathed a sigh of relief. After reporting the situation to the infantry captain, the ten-man team rode on war horses and rushed forward.

Under the command of the captain, the infantry quickly loaded the gold and silver treasures back on the carriages, and then pulled these dozens of gold and silver treasures and continued to move forward to the city not far away.

When the infantry arrived at the city, the cavalry team that arrived one step earlier had already broken through the city gate and galloped in the city.

Looking at the broken city gates blasted open by the cavalry, several infantry captains looked at each other and shook their heads with a bitter smile.

"Go in quickly, otherwise all the merits will be taken away by their cavalry."

"Alas, running fast is amazing, no, I can't run with the cavalry next time, I can't take the credit at all."

Several infantry captains communicated while commanding the infantry to rush into the city.

As thousands of infantry poured into the city, the last resistance of the local faction in the city was quickly quelled. In less than an afternoon, the city was replaced with the temporary flag of the War Committee.

Due to the relatively close time, the temporary flag only cut off the green side representing the local faction from the original two-color flag of the rebels, leaving only the red side symbolizing revenge.

After capturing the city, the captains also reported the intelligence of Giacomo's escape.

Facts have proved that the local faction did not have the courage to fight a civil war with Roland.

Especially after realizing that the leaders of the local factions were wiped out by Roland in Black Rock City, the remaining local factions had no courage to fight a civil war.

After knowing the fierce offensive of the War Committee and the ruthless purge, the remaining local factions in various places began to flee.

Except for a few stubborn ones who still planned to struggle, most local faction members packed up the wealth they had harvested over the years and tried to escape.

Although Roland blocked the passage to the outside world, the stable and safe passage to go out could not be used, and they could only take some dangerous paths.

However, as long as they brought guards and accompanied by extraordinary people, it would always be possible to leave through the path, which was better than staying there and waiting to die.

In response, Roland immediately ordered all the troops of the War Committee to speed up their advance, to keep the local factions as much as possible, and not let them leave with the wealth.

At the same time, Roland also ordered all the troops on the border to strengthen patrols, and for all caravans trying to leave, they were allowed to take action first and then ask questions.

It is better to kill the wrong person than to let him go.

In short, the locals can flee, but every penny of their money must be left behind.

Under Roland's urging, all the armies of the War Committee began to advance rapidly.

In the case of large-scale escape of locals, the army can be said to have pushed forward smoothly, and almost no obstacles were encountered.

A few local troops almost surrendered at the sight of the enemy, and basically dozens of soldiers could guard thousands of local soldiers.

Moreover, since the local leaders died or fled, the courtiers and vassals in charge of the city, who had a good relationship with the leaders, had already run away, and the rest were insignificant shrimps.

If they surrendered unconditionally, Roland would not be unable to spare their lives.

Therefore, many cities where the leaders fled, those that could still maintain order basically surrendered sensibly, and those that lost order were unable to organize military forces to defend against attacks, and the mobs in the city basically collapsed at the touch of a button.

Later, a hundred soldiers dared to attack a town, and a few hundred soldiers dared to attack a city.

However, as more and more cities were brought under the control of the War Committee, the demand for soldiers responsible for military control increased.

Even if Roland pulled all the city defense troops that were not included in the battle sequence to various places to maintain military control, it was still not enough. In desperation, Roland could only put all the new recruits in the military camp into it, and the old soldiers led the new recruits to meet the demand for soldiers for military control.

On December 10, as the last city that lost order was bloodily suppressed by soldiers, forced into military control and raised the committee flag, the War Committee won the civil war.

Although this civil war, after the coup in Black Rock City, Roland and the top leaders of the Border District faction had already expected the victory of the civil war.

After all, the top leaders of the local faction were all wiped out, and the local faction, which was leaderless and not well prepared for the civil war, had no way to fight them.

But the quick victory of the civil war still surprised Roland and the top leaders of the Border District faction.

Among the top leaders of the Border District faction, the most optimistic ones estimated that the civil war might last for a year, while the pessimistic ones believed that the civil war might last for three or four years.

As for Roland, although he was also very confident, through the channels of the United Chamber of Commerce, Roland also knew the approximate strength of the local faction. Therefore, after comparing the strength of both sides, Roland estimated that if there was no interference from external forces, the civil war should be over in half a year.

It's just that the local faction is even weaker than they all imagined. Isn't it just that the top leaders were wiped out? How could the seemingly strong local faction collapse on its own? There is no resistance at all.

Where are your troops? Where are the million-strong army that was used to threaten the border faction before?

Oh, the million-strong army has less than 200,000 soldiers. Except for a few elite soldiers from the headquarters, nearly 80% of the soldiers are just ordinary people or refugees, and they don't even have weapons.

Moreover, the local faction soldiers who were dealt with by the Black Rock City coup were not ordinary soldiers as Roland and the top leaders of the border faction thought, but the so-called elite soldiers from the headquarters.

In addition, these few elite soldiers did not have the courage to fight. They either ran away with the local faction or surrendered with their teams.

After receiving the true report from the statistics, Roland and the top leaders of the border faction were dumbfounded.

Is this all the million-strong army is? Then why did we carefully mobilize the army and prepare so many logistical supplies?

Originally, we wanted to have a big fight with the local faction, but the other side gave them a big one.

I can only say that I dare to say it and I dare to believe it at the same time.
