Rebirth of the Stars

　　 "Iron Child City" deliberately caused the 5000 cavalry unit to be completely disconnected from the rear infantry unit, including the large-scale spear-making unit capable of mass destruction and field control, and the wood spirit unit.

　　 Although the out-of-line forward force possessed the danger level enough to destroy "Xiuyuan City", it also gave "Xiuyuan City" a ray of hope in the realm of death. In particular, the purpose of the "Qin" Alliance determines that it will not abandon any city-state under its command, and will definitely send reinforcements as quickly as possible. On the only way to "Iron Zhicheng" and "Xiuyuan City", there are excellent terrains that can be used to ambush and delay time.

This is almost destined that "Xiuyuan City" will definitely choose to take the initiative after seeing "hope", and for behemoths like Siege Behemoths and infantry killers like cavalry, only "San Chi Gorge" is the best. Ambush terrain.

　　 Now that it has been determined where the "Xiuyuan City" will be located, it is self-explanatory where the pocket sheet is suitable.

　　 Therefore, when Fan Xiu led the troops to enter the dense forest just after passing the river beach and going to rest, 20000 ambush soldiers from the "Iron Baby City" showed their "fangs" in the dense forest.

　　 A dense rain of arrows shot from the edge of the dense forest and directly stunned the "Xiuyuan Army" who had just planned to bury the pot for cooking.

　　The "Iron Zhicheng" infantry who rushed out of the forest in large numbers immediately horrified the "Xiuyuan Army" who were mostly new recruits.

　　 Then everything happened naturally.

　　 The morale of the "Xiuyuan Army" collapsed less than a quarter of an hour after receiving the battle. The soldiers in the front began to rout, and the soldiers in the rear began to rout directly, and then the entire army collapsed and collapsed. In the end is the crash and escape.

　　 Fan Xiu, as the lord and general of the "Xiuyuan City", also did not escape the fate of being engulfed and fleeing.

After chasing and fleeing all the way, when there were more than 300 miles away from "Xiuyuan City", I finally got rid of the chasing troops of "Iron Zhicheng" temporarily, and then gathered the troops all the way, and finally left the "Xiuyuan City". "The lieutenant in the abandoned camp for more than two hundred miles gathered all the rest of the defeated army.

　　 The original army of more than 12,000 is now only less than 3,000. Except for 500 guards, there are less than 800 veterans who are barely able to fight. The rest are all new recruits who have been temporarily abandoned.

　　 And now the exhausted troops just took a rest for less than an hour, and the chasing troops of "Iron Zhicheng" caught up again.

　　 Ning Yuan, or the current "Fan Xiu" after digesting the memory information, he has an intuitive understanding of his own situation and a vague guess about the next situation.

　　 The war in this "sandbox" enchantment, if you guessed it correctly, was a city-state war that had actually existed on the Nieno continent.

　　 In the sandbox barrier that will appear in this war, Ning Yuan estimates that the outcome in history should not be considered a good one.

　　 The reason why Ning Yuan appeared here is probably that the designer wanted Ning Yuan to avoid the direction of this war or to deviate from the unhappy ending as much as possible.

　　 According to Ning Yuan's guess, the real Fan Xiu should not have died in this war, which means that the worst outcome for Fan Xiu in this war should be captured. But Ning Yuan couldn't guess whether he was captured in the next battle or captured in the following war.

　　 According to the existing intelligence, Ning Yuan used "Yaoyan" and Qimen induction to calculate the general direction of nothing more than two.

　　 The remnants of the "Xiuyuan City" were besieged and annihilated here, and Fan Xiu and others were captured.

　　 The remnant army of the "Xiuyuan City" was defeated again and rolled over the city behind, causing the city to be directly occupied, and Fan Xiu and others were captured.

　　 Ning Yuan concluded that the latter case is more likely.

　　 With the military power of the "Iron Zhicheng", even if it doesn't take so much time and effort, it can easily capture the "Xiuyuan City". It's just that if the "Xiuyuan City" refuses to defend the city, it will cause damage to the city wall. With the mountain destroyer and the behemoth siege, Ning Yuan estimated that this kind of damage should be irreversible.

So, the "Xiuyuan City" that can be captured no matter how you do it, as a medium-sized city-state "Iron Child City" that has a crushing advantage in resources, military power, or other things, why should it use 5,000 elite soldiers as bait to lure? "Xiu Yuanjun" out of the city?

　　 After all, what is the reason for this city-state war?

　　 In Fan Xiu's memory, Ning Yuan did not find the answer. "Iron Zhicheng" only issued a war announcement to "Xiuyuan City", and then sent troops directly towards "Xiuyuan City". Fan Xiu even wanted to find a third party to conduct war mediation during the buffer period and didn't know how to mediate. It seems that "Iron Zhicheng" wants to destroy "Xiuyuan City" for no reason. Fan Xiu even appeared in the information collected later that "Iron Zhicheng" was going to slaughter the "Xiuyuan City".

　　 "Why?" These are the three words that have been in the minds of Fan Xiu and the staff of "Xiuyuan City" since "Iron Zhicheng" declared war. It is also a problem that everyone is puzzled by.

　　 It wasn't until the information about the four special forces was received that Fan Xiu's mind seemed to flash a flash of light, and there was a vague guess. But because of many reasons, I didn't think about that vague idea carefully.

　　 Ning Yuan, who had digested Fan Xiu's memory, had faintly guessed the veil hidden in this somewhat vague war because of the influence of his talent.

　　 Based on information learned in memory. It should be said that the "Iron Child City" can only be regarded as an ordinary middle-level city-state among the medium-sized city-states to have four relatively special forces at the same time. Especially the wood spirit troops, such as pure warlock practitioners or pure wood spirit tribe practitioners, and the large spear-refining troops, which are extremely money-burning troops.

A mature medium-sized city-state, that is, a city-state with a population of one million and the proportion of practitioners reaching the extreme 30% (Of course, even a medium-sized city-state with a population of one million cannot reach the perfect three. One hundred thousand practitioners), among all three hundred thousand practitioners, it may be possible to find a professional warlock who wants to find a song, or even more, but if you want to find a professional who is all wood warlocks, It is not easy.

　　 To be straightforward, there are almost only two of the 300,000 cultivators who can find a wooden warlock cultivator and one hundred million medium-sized city states with a population of three at most.

　　 No matter what the calculation is, "Iron Zhicheng" cannot be in this one.

　　 Even if it is not a warlock cultivator, but a wood spirit clan who is very easy to form a wood spirit army, it is the same.

Because the wood spirit tribe is quite an exclusive race among all spirit tribes on the Nieno continent, and they basically only live in the major "Sen Leagues". For example, the "Longsen League" is established in the dragon blood forest. Spirit tribe-led alliance. Wood spirits rarely appear in territories dominated by human races.

　　 Of course, if a certain city-state has established a "friendship" with a certain group of wood spirits, then it's a different matter.

　　 But even Ning Yuan, who remembered the "Iron Child City" in the intelligence, didn't even think that the other party would connect with a certain wood spirit clan.

　　 From this, Ning Yuan speculated that the Wood Spirit troops should not be the troops originally belonging to the "Iron Child City".

　　 Look at the "Large Refining Spear" unit again. Refining spears, especially large-scale refining spears, is an emerging thing that has only appeared for a few hundred years in Fan Xiu's age.

　　 Yes, unlike other gas refining technology products that usually transform from large-scale to small-scale, the refining gun is a "heterogeneous" that transforms from miniaturization to large-scale.

　　The refining spear of the Nieno continent was originally a toy-like thing for practitioners. It was just a thing used by mortals to deal with wild beasts and to terrorize those timid and fierce monsters.

　　Until someone had a whim to refine the refining spear by refining treasures.

　　Although the refining gun was originally powered by the source stone, it basically used a mechanical method to activate the ammunition. For mortals, speed is also powerful, but it is only for mortals.

　　 For cultivators, even if they are just preparatory cultivators who have condensed the "aura", as long as the mechanical kinetic energy refining spear hits the key to death, it can only cause them to be injured. And the mid-soldier cultivator who stepped into the "sea of ​​air" can rely on the improved reaction ability to dodge this kind of mechanical kinetic energy refining ammunition.

　　 But this situation has changed after the advent of the refining spear that uses rune power as the active energy.

　　 Practitioners found that this kind of refining spear inspired by runes using the source stone as energy can threaten soldiers-level practitioners in the hands of mortals. And if it is in the hands of practitioners, such as those in the mid-soldier level, it can even pose a threat to practitioners who have just entered the husband level.

　　 This discovery made those practitioners very interested, and they began to study, and the subsequent discovery completely changed the fate of the "toy" of refining guns. It also led to the birth of a new branch profession among the later practitioners.

　　The name of the new branch profession is called "Gunner."

　　 That major discovery is the popular "caliber is justice."

　　Research found that under the same material, the larger the caliber of the refining gun, the more runes of the same kind engraved, the more advanced it is. The power of the same ammunition will be geometrically different.

　　 Whether it is the superimposition of the same kind of rune or the change of caliber, the large-scale refining gun has become an inevitable choice.

　　 Although the gun refining thing is good, it has one drawback, that is, it burns money extremely. This is especially true for large-scale gun-refining units such as large-scale gun-refining troops. In Fan Xiu's era, the refining gun had not yet achieved production line operations, and could only be refined individually by skilled workers in the refining workshop.

　　 Of course, based on the memory and intelligence digested by Ning Yuan, "Iron Zhicheng" is not that it can't afford a large battalion of gun-refining troops, but that raising such a unit is not an attempt for "Iron Zhicheng".

　　 Based on the existing intelligence, it is also unlikely that this large-scale gun-making unit is the original unit of the "Iron Baby City".

In fact, there is a more direct evidence that these two units are not "Iron Child City" troops, that is, from the "Iron Child City" battle reports that have been circulated in the past, neither "Wood Spirit Force" nor "Large Refining Spear" has appeared. force". Even the Siege Behemoth troops have not appeared.

　　 Only the Destroyer Warriors are the elite troops trained by the "Iron Child City". Moreover, in the information circulating for so many years, the "Iron Child City" has only trained two teams with a little bit more than the mountain-breaking force, and so far, even one piece of the mountain-breaking force song has been dissatisfied.

　　Since the wood spirits, spears, and giant beasts are not units of the "Iron Baby City", where did they come from? And why did you temporarily join the "Iron Child City" to participate in this already disparity war?

　　 Then let's go back to the original problem again. With such a luxurious lineup of troops, why did the "Iron Child City" have to spend so much time to draw the troops of Xiuyuan City out of the city?

　　 faintly, Ning Yuan had already guessed.

One of the purposes of the "Iron Child City" or the power behind the "Iron Child City" is undoubtedly "Xiuyuan City", but it is very likely that the other party does not want a broken "Xiuyuan City". It is a "Xiuyuan City" that is "intact".

　　 This is the direct purpose of this war.

　　 So what is the deeper purpose?

　　 Ning Yuan thought of the letter of help sent by Fan Xiu in the memory information, his heart was chilled, and his scalp was tingling.

　　 A "intact" "Xiuyuan City".

　　 A letter of help that has been sent out.

　　 The purpose of the "Qin" Alliance.

　　 A "line" sprang up.

　　 Ning Yuan has a heavy heart.

　　 I remembered that the chasing soldiers mentioned by Chuan Lingbing had already been surrounded on three sides.

　　Since it is an encirclement and annihilation, why not completely encircle it?

　　 Even if it is "surrounding the three and missing one", why do you leave the side that retreats to the city?

　　 "It really doesn't hide it." Ning Yuan sneered mockingly in his heart.

　　 But precisely because of the other party's unconcealed attitude, even though Ning Yuan was in a heavy mood, he still had some vague thoughts.

　　Although he said a lot, it was only a few breaths after the time had passed. The Messenger was still kneeling on the ground, clasping his fists and looking at "Fan Xiu".

　　 While using "Yaoyan" in his consciousness to deduce the feasibility of those vague ideas, "Fan Xiu" said to Chuan Lingbing:

　　 "You go and inform Deputy General Zhao to summon all the remaining scouts of our army. I have an order to issue."

　　 After speaking, he turned to look at the map on the low table and said calmly: "Go, I'll come out later."

　　 "Yes." When Chuan Lingbing heard the calm and steady voice of "Fan Xiu", his desperate mood eased a little, and he got up and ran out of the account after a salute.

　　 At this time, the shouting and killing of the front camp of the camp has faintly approached the middle camp.

　　 "Fan Xiu" stared at the map on the low table and took a closer look, especially the terrain around this abandoned camp originally used for field training.

　　 After ensuring that all the details can be fully reproduced under the "Sunset", "Fan Xiu" grabbed the big knife stuck in the ground.

　　 After waving and familiarizing himself for a while in the camp, "Fan Xiu" took a deep breath, cheered up his tired body, and murmured softly, "Behind you is the homeland."

　　 said, raising his head, and walking out of the tent with a majestic and calm expression.

　　 came to the outside of the account, and the fairly complete guards were already waiting here.

　　 There were only 500 guards left in the original battalion.

　　 They are veterans handpicked by "Fan Xiu" one by one, and they are also the seeds that "Fan Xiu" intends to train into elites.

　　 But after this battle, how many people are left? Or just accompany yourself to the death on the battlefield.

　　 He heard the screams of killing and the screams of the soldiers when they died in the middle camp, and the slight anxiety, panic, and despair on the faces of the front guards were reflected in their eyes. .

　　 "Fan Xiu" looked at them calmly and quietly, until the look on the guard's face was slightly calm.

　　 At this time, Deputy General Zhao rode over with the remaining seven detectives.
