Proof of the Sun King
Vol 2 Chapter 937: , the east line of the ashes
The West Territory of the Empire actually refers to the abandoned territory, that is, the waste province, which refers to a large area in the northeast of Marienburg, across the sea from Marienburg through the estuary, located in Midden. The western part of the lands, the western part of the Nord lands.
A large piece of land here is ostensibly under the jurisdiction of Marienburg, but in fact it is in a kind of three-needle zone, and the adjacent areas of Nordland, Midden and Marienburg rarely govern West. This makes this area extremely desolate. Basically, there are no cities, towns, castles and villages. It is a veritable "wasteland".
The history of Westland is a long story, here is a long story short, it was once an imperial territory, and it was the famous imperial province of Drakwald. Having said it, I won't repeat it here.
Elector Werner of the province of Drakwald was killed by Skaven assassins in 1110 of the imperial calendar when he was slaughtering the Beastmen in the province, and the army was slaughtered by the Beastmen. The most serious problem is that At that time, Werner, the Elector of Drakwald Province, did not have any heirs or relatives, and all those who had the right of inheritance died in battle, and the empire was fighting the Black Death and the Skaven War at that time, and there was no way to come to support. Drakwald, even the Imperial Emperor Boris - the money-grabber died in the Black Death, and decades later the Elector of Middenland, Mandred - the Rat-killer finally defeated Sri Lanka at the Battle of Wuthering Hill. Calvin's army and became the Wolf Emperor, but he was assassinated by the Rat Man assassin before he could revive the empire.
Then came the era of the Three Emperors.
Drakwald Province has not received strong support from the Empire from beginning to end. In the end, under the continuous attack of two or three hundred years, except for a small number of people in Drakwald Province, all the remaining towns and all the population escaped here. Turned to dust in the assault, plunder and destruction of the Beastmen, the province has since ceased to exist, and the Elector's Rune Sword, the Beast Slayer, is now in the treasury of the Imperial capital.
The province has completely turned into a weird and terrifying Black Forest, where many terrifying mutant creatures live, the most famous of which is the lurking Beastmen tribe, no one knows how many Beastmen there are, but according to years of research by the Empire, there are at least two Three hundred thousand beasts and one hundred thousand greenskins hide in the deepest part of the Drakwald Forest.
After that, Midden tried to recover Drakwald but failed in the end. He also took the life of Falk, the elector of the white wolf at the time, and tens of thousands of troops. So far, no imperial army has tried to recover here.
Until after the Great Holy War, the savior Ludwig was determined to restore the Drakwald Forest. He also had the most powerful imperial army after the Great Holy War at that time. After the fierce battle, part of Drakwald was recovered by the Empire. It was annexed by Nordland and Midenland, and a large part of the remaining western area by the sea really lost any value under the raging of beastmen for thousands of years, and was eventually turned into Westland, that is, wasteland.
Therefore, after the Knights Road army passed through Marienburg, and then passed the town of Salfin in the northeast of Marienburg, the next two hundred kilometers would be almost completely deserted, if not for the elector of Boris Todbringer. If Hou You built some sentries, fortress posts and watchtowers on this road, Ryan thought that this would be like crossing the grass.
Looking up at a desolate place, there is nothing to see except snow, grass, wasteland and the distant skyline. The occasional ruins of towns full of history on the way are a warning to everyone - if you have been ignoring the Beastmen of raids and looting, then even the greatest civilization will eventually fall.
The army was slowly advancing, and the king of knights held several unsealed letters in his hand, and said to Morgiana, Lawn, Hagen, Bethmond, Veronica and others who were present: "There are several news. , let's take a look at it separately, and then discuss what we should do next."
Everyone took a few pieces of information and started to read.
The news that Erlengrad is still standing and the Mourning Mountains has another 100,000 Chaos troops heading south has been mentioned earlier. Ryan and others have been greatly encouraged by Erlengrad's persistence, but at present they can only It is hoped that Callard's Northern Front and Poseidon fleet will save the city.
Another news is that the Legion of Nurgle, led by Nurgle's Chosen Champion Festus, marched at a slow but firm pace towards Bekafin, the capital of Ostermark, where the capital of the province of Ostermark is located. On the northern border of Ostermark, there is absolutely nothing to lose here. Elector Hertwig has assembled more than 60,000 troops to prepare for battle.
Finally, the news that the main force of Chaos is approaching the border of the Empire.
Due to the impact of the refugee wave, the design and establishment of the Empire's border defenses were difficult. Although the refugees in Kislev provided some of the necessary manpower, the larger-scale food consumption and the chaos caused by the refugees and many mixed refugees The destruction of Chaos believers in the tide made the establishment of the Empire's frontier defenses difficult.
For this reason, some troops from Osterland, Nord Kingdom and Ostermark began to enter the territory of Kislev to receive some towns to defend and establish defense lines. From the beginning of December to the end of December when Lane received the news, the imperial army Battle of Tczev, Battle of Konykpol, Battle of Ostroti, Battle of Krakjunov, Battle of Voitazis, Battle of Chizovi were conducted with the vanguard of the main Chaos army. Strange defensive battle.
Unsurprisingly, all the imperial troops were defeated, and most of the hastily assembled imperial troops were composed of conscripted soldiers and those provincial conscripts. These troops were not professional soldiers, and it took a certain amount of time for them to have combat effectiveness. Training, but now the empire has no time to train, so it can only force the ducks to be put on the shelves, or even send them to death to delay the time.
"The Empire expects that the main force of Chaos will arrive at the border of the Empire in mid-January...if all goes well." Duke Berhemond put down the news, and Duke Red Dragon judged the situation: "Can we catch up?"
"It is now the end of December, and we are at least 600 kilometers away from Middenheim, and Middenheim is at least 500 kilometers away from Osterland." Lawn also said: " Maybe it's too late for us to reach the borders of the Empire."
Even if the logistics along the way are all prepared, the speed of the march of the Knights Road army is about 30-40 kilometers, which is already the limit to ensure the physical strength, combat effectiveness and temporary adaptability of the army, and you must know that the knight master and the old guard The army usually marches without armor, and the heavily armored army only wears all armor when entering the battlefield.
Why? Just think about it with your brain.
Considering that it is impossible for Drakwald Forest to march at full speed and without fighting, plus other factors, it was a miracle that Ryan could arrive at Osterland in early February.
"It's definitely not in time, but we can at least get to the battlefield before the Chaos army approaches the Tarabek River." Ryan agreed. The Knight King took out the map and placed it directly on Veronica's back. This was a bit unexpected, but she still indicated that it was fine, and Ryan didn't seem to be joking: "The turbulent waters of the Tarabek River will inevitably stop the Chaos army, so in the worst case, we will also be caught in Tarabekheim. Arrive before the siege, and ideally..."
"It's that the empire can hold on to the border for a long enough time." Lake **** witch Morgiana didn't like seeing the little tacit understanding between Ryan and Veronica, and she didn't like it at all. She grabbed the map directly, and Ryan saw it. Veronica came to her side: "We will meet Boris Todbringer and his army of white wolves within Midden's Landing."
"What about the emperor and his army? We have a king, shouldn't the empire have an emperor?" Duke Hagen said displeased.
"The Emperor will not leave Brunswick easily until Chaos hits the Tarabek River." Ryan frowned, and the King of Knights pulled Veronica: "Let's go through Westland first."
"I am familiar with the Beastmen, Your Majesty." Berhemond put his hands on his hips, and he looked at the endless wilderness: "The Beastmen will not attack us here, but it is difficult to say when we reach the Drakwald Forest."
"So we have to get through Westland as soon as possible."
…………I want to cross the dividing line of Westland as soon as possible…………
Just when Lane's Knight Road army was still leading the march in West, the imperial calendar was 2515, early January.
The border between Kislev and the Empire's territory, the Empire's border area.
The main army of Chaos, like a black ocean, is heading towards the Oster Territory of the Empire. In the overwhelming snow and bones, the main army of Chaos, as many as 120,000, has formed several arrows. The land that originally belonged to the empire was covered up like black and turbid crude oil, and thousands of flags of tribes and chaos were aimed at the air.
This main army of Chaos has walked all the way. Nearly half a million people have died tragically under their weapons and sorcery. Under Motkin's order, all the places they have passed have become no-man's land. Dozens of gigantic Chaos Emblems and Skull Jingguan, the Avengers from the North destroyed everything, their cruel deeds even the toughest Lady Keithler and the Imperials wept.
Motkin didn't want any prisoners, and he didn't even like the short-term detention. The Chaos army crossed the border with no grass, black smoke, and fire. All that was left were the scorched and destroyed cities, the large-scale Chaos sacrifice scene and the fire. Chaos Emblem.
Above the sky, two chaotic dragons spread their wings, flying across the border, leaving countless filth and chaotic corruption.
Right at the very center of the team, in the defense of the Chaos Four Gods' Choice Warriors, the Crimson Reaper, Chaos Eternal God's Choice, Black Iron Mott's golden blue eyes are looking at everything in the distance, one by one new information Sent to Motkin's hands, Eternal God's Choice is judging the situation.
For now, the first phase of the Barbarossa plan is going very well. Through the great battle of Zedevka, Chaos solved the threat of Kislev with relative ease, and quickly moved south without being caught by this old world fence. blocked the way.
However, the second phase of the plan has already begun to have problems. The first is that Erlengrad cannot be attacked for a long time, and the Norsca Mountains Corps did not complete the task according to the planned plan, so Erlengrad has always been occupied by the Empire and Breed. The danger of Tanian reinforcements and even high elves, and the news of Ulfric's defeat was also delivered to Motkin at this time. Although the plan to contain the Bretons was still in progress, the effect had already been achieved. Great discount.
Moreover, along the way, Motkin's decision has also been questioned by many Chaos Gods and Chaos champions.
Normally, when the Chaos army crosses the border, they burn, kill, and loot all the way. Every time they go to a place, they must fully vent their desires, collect trophies, and sacrifice to the evil gods before moving on, but Motkin seems to be particularly anxious. The army was ordered to advance, and sometimes even the most important ceremony of sacrificing the Four Chaos Gods was not completed, which made many Chaos greats dissatisfied.
In addition to this, Motkin's decision not to lead the army to attack the city of Kislev in person has also caused a lot of controversy. In the eyes of most people, Kislev is already dying. At this time, the Chaos army plows the court. After sweeping the caves, this thousand-year-old kingdom of ice and snow should be completely destroyed, but no matter how the Chaos Gods and Chaos champions pleaded, Motkin always refused. He clearly told everyone that there was only one goal, and that was to be located in The Elector's family castle von Zhukov Castle in the north of Osterland and Wolfenburg, the capital of Osterland in the southeast of the Central Mountains.
He has already confirmed the figure of the enemy. The coalition composed of Oleg von Zhukov, the son of the Elector, and Piot Sergeyev, the new Generalissimo of Kislev, sent by the Tsar Katarin The southern part of Kislev near Osterland tried to block the tide of destruction of Chaos, and of course it ended in a fiasco. Now it has to retreat into the border of the Empire and organize a new line of defense.
"Eternal God chooses Your Excellency, I understand your desire for revenge, but if it continues like this, it will be difficult for us to rely on storms to break through the empire's defenses." Tzeentch God chose Howl-Eternal Eye once again advised: "We should try to Let the doom begin."
"Let the moment of doom begin?" Motkin rode on the Chaos Steel Bull that Khorne had given him, and the icy eyes of the King of the North twitched slightly, which made Tsian Qi terrified: "I said it before. , I have only one goal, and that is revenge."
Tzeentch's choice of Howl-Eternal Eye became more and more helpless.
During this time, the Chaos Demon and Tzeentch's Chosen Champion, Cha-Zanek, begged Motkin several times not to focus on Ostland, but instead that he should spread corruption, unleash the plague, send Chaos followers to infiltrate and occupy the Activate the chaos gathering places and beastmen tribes in the deep forest to weaken the empire and guide the arrival of the end, and even some chaos demons kneel in front of Motkin and plead bitterly. The strategy of "encircling the city with forests and villages, and guiding all the Chaos Cultists in the Empire to form a Chaos Sect, infiltrating the Imperial Court and corrupting the Imperial Nobility" strategy, but these strategies were all rejected by Motkin~www.wuxiaspot.com~Who is stopping me The way forward, who is my enemy. "After slaying several Chaos champions, Motkin said so icyly, the Eternal God's Choice ordered the Tzeentch God's Choice champion Tza-Zanek to lead his Raven Legion to attack Ostermark, while he remained firm. Go south, and at the same time issue an order for Prince Sigwald and the Legion of Slaanesh, who are playing in Zedevka to forget the time, to go south as soon as possible after replenishing their staff.
The Chaos army continued south until it approached the border of Ostland, where Oleg von Zhukov, the eldest son of the Elector of Ostland, assembled a force of the Empire and the defeated troops of Kislev. The 100,000 army and the three lines of defense temporarily formed, waiting for the arrival of the Chaos army in unease and tenacity.
At this time, Motkin also received news that the Knights Road army of Brittany had appeared in the Empire Westland.
Chaos Eternal God Chosen immediately realized that the legendary knight king Ryan would become the biggest threat to his revenge.
"Immediately order Drakwald Beastman Supreme Beastmaster Graktar! No matter what the cost, we must firmly hold Ryan Malcador and his army of chivalry in the Drakwald Forest!"
The order of Eternal Chosen Dark Iron Motkin was soon passed to the Drakwald Forest through the magical omens of Hal-Eternal Eye.
On this day, in the ancient and evil giant black forest, more than a thousand horns of Beastmen sounded. Since the legendary Beastman Gottwo, the largest army of Beastmen began to gather in Wanmayan. Thousands of Beastmen tribes, war gangs, and war groups have been inspired by the God of Darkness and rolled in.
"Gather...Fight!".
"Kill... knight...kill...everyone!"
"Eat...all...fresh meat!!!"
