From Wild Mage to Wizard King
Chapter 306: The Decay of the Allied Forces
After the communication equipment was widely used in administration and military, the information flow of the war committee became more convenient and faster.
When the three greenskin warlords were killed one after another, the war report quickly spread throughout the war committee in less than three days.
Even when the civilians listened to Feng En's live broadcast of various judgments and heard the newspaper reader's war report posted on the bulletin board, they did not have a clear concept of the death of the three greenskin warlords.
At most, they compared it with the previous rebels.
For the record of the rebels killing one greenskin warlord in a few months, the war committee killed three in a row in more than a month and captured three warlord territories.
The civilians could only get the idea that the war committee was stronger than the previous rebels, but they did not understand how much stronger it was.
Therefore, ordinary civilians did not feel much about these war reports.
In their opinion, isn't it normal that the war committee is stronger than the rebels?
When the rebels ruled, they struggled on the line of life and death every day, thinking about what to do after the next meal. Now, the War Committee has just ruled for two years. Not only do they not have to struggle on the line of life and death, they can eat well every day and save surplus food.
They even have time to come to the bulletin board to listen to the newspaper reader tell some interesting stories.
Moreover, the nobles who were usually domineering, their servants, bullies, roaming around, robbing and killing bandits have all disappeared completely, and they feel safe.
In addition, there are all kinds of public works that have sprung up for them to use.
This kind of beautiful life can only be achieved when the War Committee comes.
Although the uneducated civilians do not know what the difference is between the War Committee and the rebels, they are full of confidence in the War Committee just by the change of environment.
Therefore, in their view, the War Committee that allows them to live such a good life is countless times stronger than the rebels, so they are not surprised by the results.
On the contrary, some people still find it a bit strange.
In the simple thinking of these people, the War Committee is at least a hundred times stronger than the rebels, right? But why is this record not so good? It is only three times the original rebels.
Of course, ordinary people's ideas are just ordinary people's ideas.
Only the committee members who understand the real strength of the greenskin warlords will be shocked by these battle reports.
Although Roland is not very satisfied with the war losses, he feels that there are still too many deaths. Some soldiers rushed too hard. There was no need to die. At most, they were seriously injured and rested for a few days, but they rushed to death directly.
Do you know that resurrection consumes a lot of resources?
Moreover, the Fountain of Life is so big, and the number of people who can be resurrected at one time is limited. If so many people die, it will take a lot of time to resurrect and wait for them to recover their combat power.
But, for the committee members, this sacrifice is not worth mentioning.
The greenskin warlord who could only be killed by Locke himself was killed at such a simple price?
The number of soldiers killed by the rebels against the greenskin warlords before was more than ten times this number, not to mention that these soldiers can be resurrected.
Isn't it just spending more resources? This price is completely acceptable. At most, we can expand trade with the outside world, exploit the land, and get more food to sell.
Moreover, there are still a lot of resources left from the last purge of local forces. Besides, doesn't the committee have some local forces that have not been dealt with?
Thinking of this, the committee members in the committee province turned their eyes to the local nobles and knights who nominally joined them.
One by one, the committee members kept writing to the Executive Committee, requesting another purge to clean up all the local nobles and knights who were nominally from the border area.
Like the committee members who followed, the committee members who stayed in the war committee also ignited hope.
However, Roland vetoed all their applications with his veto power.
You committee members are still a little too extreme.
After all, they originally joined the war committee, and they were exploited by you before. Now they are also scared by the previous purge and trial. How can you just shoot them?
Of course, the main reason is that they have been exploited by the border faction for so many years. Even if they were all shot, it would be impossible to plunder huge wealth like the Great Purge.
As for land and power, local officials have long taken away their remaining power, and the remaining land is dispensable to the committee.
There is no need to shoot them directly.
After Roland's comfort and explanation, the twelve executive committee members who agreed to shoot gave up this dangerous idea.
After comforting the committee members, Roland also drew a thousand-man team from the legion in the rear to supplement the front-line troops.
Although the front-line troops are sufficient, Roland is still used to replenishing the reserve troops on the front line, so as not to be insufficient when they are needed.
In addition, Roland commanded the army to continue to fight on the front line and strike hard at the greenskin tribes one by one.
In the War Committee, as the news of the battle report spread, the hopeful committee members in various places became more active, and their work attitudes were high.
As the top leaders of the War Committee, their mentality also affected the situation of the entire War Committee to a certain extent.
As their mentality improved due to hope, the depressing atmosphere that had been pervading the War Council began to dissipate.
While the War Council was thriving, the situation of the United Army in the south of the War Council was not so stable.
When the War Council continued to export food and purchase a large amount of resources and materials.
The United Army close to the War Council naturally got the biggest piece of the pie.
Therefore, the factions of the United Army close to the War Council took the opportunity to resell and seek huge profits.
They moved the weapons and equipment of the United Army and various resources, and sold them through trade with the War Council in exchange for endless gold, silver and food.
After exchanging food, they sold them to other people in the United Army at a high price.
Relying on this reselling, the factions close to the War Council took the opportunity to continue to grow.
The semi-monopoly of commercial trade and the continuous improvement of their strength also made their status in the United Army rise, which naturally greatly contributed to their political ambitions.
As a result, they also joined the United Army's political power struggle around Eleanor, which undoubtedly greatly intensified the political infighting of the United Army.
Moreover, due to the large influx of food from the War Council into the United Army, the various factions successfully appeased the unstable rule under their command with these food, and were able to concentrate their forces on political infighting.
The large amount of weapons and supplies flowing into the War Council also made it difficult for the United Army to replenish its military strength.
In addition, since the greenskin warlords on the border rarely clashed with the United Army.
Therefore, the military forces of various factions on the border were secretly transferred to the rear and consumed in the infighting.
This undoubtedly caused the military strength of the United Army to be constantly consumed in the infighting, and because it was difficult to replenish, the military strength was still declining.
The most important point is that due to the food imported by the War Council, the various factions were also able to mobilize more militias, which further increased the scale of the infighting.
However, the United Army seemed to have no problems on the surface.
Even as the large amount of wealth of the War Council continued to flow into the United Army through commercial trade, the United Army seemed to be thriving on the surface.
Nobles and royal families from all over the country spent money like water, buying all kinds of extravagant and expensive items, building palaces, and competing with each other.
Grand banquets were held day and night, and countless fine foods were thrown away without even being eaten.
As the leader of the coalition army, Eleanor did not stop this extravagant trend from sweeping the entire coalition army. On the contrary, she even fueled the flames.
The most expensive and largest banquet of the entire coalition army was held by her. In addition to the banquet, she also opened a harem, collecting handsome men from all over the place to fill the harem, and even spent a huge amount of money to buy a sun elf from the slave trader of Sinar for her own entertainment.
In addition to the banquet, Eleanor also promiscuously promiscuously every day. It is rumored that when she handles government affairs on weekdays, she will take a few harems to mess around.
It is rumored that Eleanor seems to be really considering building another group of extravagant palaces for her own entertainment.
Originally, most of the goods transported from Sinar to Donnar were weapons and equipment and various materials. Now the proportion of these things has dropped by more than half, and the proportion of luxury goods such as high-end furniture, high-end slaves, high-end food, desserts, etc. is constantly increasing.
If the War Committee had not ordered various materials from Sinar's caravan, the proportion of luxury goods would have been even more exaggerated.
However, although the coalition army was extravagant, except for the internal members of the coalition army and the War Committee, the Sinar countries did not realize the problems of the coalition army.
On the surface, although the coalition army spent a lot on enjoyment, the surface strength of the coalition army has also been growing, and Eleanor would occasionally send some good news.
For example: Who has broken through again, how many extraordinary people have escaped from the green tide and joined the coalition army.
So, in their view, although the coalition army's atmosphere is not very good, it is still doing things.
And the ghosts they planted in the coalition army were also bought, so that they could only receive various good news.
Therefore, although the caravans had nothing good to say about the United Army, the high-ranking officials of the Silver Empire did not care about these rumors. According to the news from the insider, they still believed that the United Army was a chess piece that could be used.
Therefore, the Silver Empire turned a blind eye to the extravagance of the United Army.
In fact, the United Army was only left with the bright and beautiful appearance, and the real core could be said to be rotten.
The prevailing extravagance made the high-ranking officials of the United Army rotten.
Most of the increased troops were recruited as militias for the sake of local stability, and they were just given a bite to eat. It was good enough to keep them alive, and the actual combat power could be completely ignored.
And the only combat soldiers were constantly consumed in the internal struggle.
The United Army was rotten.
"The United Army was rotten."
Zago put down his glass and cursed at his friend.
"A bunch of insects who only know luxury and pleasure! How can we run a good coalition army with a bunch of insects like them!"
While Zago was cursing the high-ranking nobles and knights of the coalition army, Mali, opposite him, was silent, listening to his curses while calmly drinking turbid wine.
"Kan Ozu is still fucking alive, and the Green Tide is just outside watching us? Why have they degenerated into this shit now?"
Zago shook his head and drank the last drink in the glass in one gulp.
"Bang."
He slammed the wine glass on the table and continued to curse loudly.
"A bunch of insects! Do you really think Kan'aozu is so easy to kill? That trash can't be beaten at all! She still has the face to see it."
"Zago, be careful what you say!"
When Zago turned his spear against Eleanor, the leader of the coalition forces, Mari immediately spoke, interrupted him, and said in caution.
"Be careful with your words? Be careful with your words. She is just a handful. Let me just say that, eh."
Zago shouted as he filled his empty wine glass with wine.
Before he could finish speaking, Mari threw a piece of bread at him and blocked his mouth.
"Okay, shut up."
Mari drank all the wine in his glass, slammed it on the table, and said.
"If you just come to me to complain, get out of here."
Zago bit off the bread and placed the bitten bread on the table with his right hand. Then, while pouring wine for Mali, he spoke in a cautious tone.
"Mali, my good brother, I heard that you have connections with the north?"
"What do you want to do?"
Mali just picked up the wine glass. After hearing his words, he put the glass down without drinking, glanced at him, and said.
Zago sighed and said helplessly.
"I want to go to the north and visit. I heard that the north is at war with the Green Tide again. I also want to go fight against the Greenskins."
Zago sat back in his original position and said with a melancholy tone.
"When I joined the Union Army, I thought those guys in the north were too extreme. With the Union Army and Eleanor still there, there is obviously still hope, so there is no need to be so pessimistic. But now, I think those guys in the north are right. "
"well."
Zago sighed.
Hearing Zago's words, Mari looked up at him and said in a shocked tone.
"Those guys in the north? Those lunatics who only know revenge and just want to bite the green tide a few times before they die? You want to join them? Are you crazy???"
Listening to Mari's shocked tone, Zago sighed again and continued.
"In the past two years, I haven't killed a single greenskin. I can't live like this anymore. I would rather die gloriously on the front line against the green tide than drown here."
Mari was silent. He drank the wine one mouthful at a time and did not answer.
The room also fell into silence.
After an unknown amount of time passed, Mari put down his wine glass. He looked at Zago in front of him and said.
"I do have some contact with the North, and the North welcomes anyone to join now, but are you really ready?"
"The North is not as relaxed as we are here. There are countless rules and regulations. Can you really adapt?"
Zago nodded and said.
"I know, it doesn't matter. As long as I can fight greenskins, I can accept more rules."
Mari sighed and said.
"I understand. Let's meet at the Chamber of Commerce in five days."
"There are seventeen people leaving north this time. Don't be surprised if you see them when the time comes."
"ah?"
Zago blinked and made a confused sound.
Mari glanced at him, took out an identity badge representing the war committee from his arms, put it on the table, and said.
"Actually, I have been a member of the committee for a long time."
"When did it happen?"
Zago asked in surprise as he looked at the ID badge on the table.
"Maybe at the beginning of the year."
Mari said calmly.
"I joined the caravan during the trip at the beginning of the year, and they agreed. After that, I discussed it with them again, and decided to stay with the United Army first, contact other people, and attract people who are interested in joining the north. past."
"Originally, I planned to wait until this batch was sent out and then ask you if you were interested."
Listening to Mari's words, Zago was stunned.
Recalling the previous extraordinary beings who suddenly left, Zago said hesitantly.
"Then Kan Bei and the others left suddenly before, too?"
"Well, they all went to Toubei."
Mari nodded, confirming his suspicion.
"I asked why they left so suddenly."
Zago muttered to himself.
"I knew they couldn't be afraid and fled to Sinar."
"Okay, take this [Golden Law] back and read it."
Mari interrupted his soliloquy, took out a brand new [Golden Law] from the cabinet on the side, placed it on the table, and pushed it over.
"These are the regulations of the War Council. Read it yourself. The content about the death penalty is good to read. Otherwise, if you violate it, the North is not a coalition army and will not show mercy to you because of your identity."
"I see."
Zago nodded and put the [Golden Law] away curiously.
"Get it and get out of here. Remember not to expose yourself."
Mari waved his hand, indicating that he could leave.
When Zago heard what he said, he also stuffed the [Golden Law] into his arms. After making sure that it was wrapped in clothes and would not be discovered, he stood up and prepared to leave the room.
When Zago walked to the door of the room and was about to leave, Mari suddenly stopped him.
"Wait a minute."
Mali's voice suddenly sounded from behind, and then he threw an object, which flew behind Zago's head.
"Eat it, don't waste it."
Zago turned around and caught the object that Mali threw. It was the bread that he had just taken a bite of and put on the table.
"Got it."
Zago responded, bit the bread, pushed the door open and left.
