She Is Not a Witch

At the end of May, the capital of the northern border fell, Duke Raven died in battle, and there was no leader for a while. At this critical moment, Elon Trey, who had been deprived of his inheritance rights before, stood up again and issued an edict to the surviving lords in the northern border. Gather where you are.

Although Elon was disinherited before, the Duke of Raven has not identified a new heir, and the younger generation of the Trey family has no one whose prestige can be compared with it, so even if his status is not as good as before. It is as lofty as it is, but at present, it is the only reliable and convincing choice.

The remaining troops began to gather, and half a month later, a small number of elites carrying Queen Tesslin also landed in the cold mountain castle and met the son of the raven.

Her Majesty the Queen issued an edict announcing Elon Trey as the new Duke of Raven to confirm the legitimacy of his power, which brought together the northern border that was on the verge of fragmentation.

Although the Dryas organization wanted to interfere and prevent such a thing from happening, they were already exhausted after taking the Black Crow's collar with great difficulty, with a large shortage of supplies and a lot of personnel losses. Looking at the land further north, one can only sigh in awe .

The time came to June, the weather was slightly warmer, the situation was suspended, and both sides were preparing for the next decisive battle.

Although Dryas occupies a lot of land in the northern border, the time is too hasty. In just 1-2 months, it takes extra energy to appease and stabilize the northern territories with a strong will to resist, and logistical supplies The length of the route also limited the strength to continue to attack north.

Nowadays, there are no smooth and fast roads, and many things can only be carried by horse-drawn carts, and the speed cannot be increased.

Black Crow Collar on the front line, currently the former command center of the Dryas.

In the center of the round table in the room is a small firewood pile surrounded by stones. Charcoal and firewood are burning inside, and sparks emit from time to time, emitting gentle heat, making the room surrounded by stones warm.

Several generals, as well as more than a dozen staff officers and senior military officers sat around here, discussing the current military situation and strategy.

"It's getting colder the further north you go."

"Yes, firewood for heating has become an important military material." A general sighed.

"Many of our soldiers come from the south and are not used to this climate. Those stationed in the barracks are fine, but it is difficult for the soldiers who go out to investigate."

Although low-level superhumans have a certain ability to keep out the cold, it is not unlimited. Such behavior will also consume a lot of mana and attention, which cannot be balanced with the task.

"Yes, so at present, most of them rely on the assistance of elf allies to obtain the distribution of the opposite army."

Compared with humans, there are many more high-level transcendents among the elves, and many elves are also good at shuttling through the forests in the cold zone, and they are lighter and faster.

After the generals lamented the increasingly difficult situation recently, they began to formally discuss how to defeat the last force in the northern border.

"I thought defeating Duke Raven would be the end of the game, but I didn't want the enemy to stay behind, making our strategic goal fall short."

"Unfortunate, such a situation."

"Things are always so difficult and every step of the way you need to go all out."

These generals were not like the nobles in the past. They were born to sit in high positions. Almost all of them came from civilians. They also fought directly on the front line in the early days of the uprising. Their personal experience made them understand the horror and cruelty of the battlefield. .

If it is not possible, no one wants to experience this kind of thing again, this is not a game, the number of people is just a number, behind it can represent a family, there are countless laughter and tears, expectations and sighs.

"I learned from the captured soldiers that the Duke of Raven didn't actually think of escaping in the end. With his old-fashioned and traditional style, escaping is an extremely shameful thing."

"But in the end, how did it happen?" Some people asked.

"Then we have to mention our old opponent, that same young general."

"Isaiah, it really is an idea he can come up with, this one will not be restricted by traditional concepts and face, he is an alternative among the nobles."

"There are very few people he cares about. In other words, he was originally from a small nobleman, and he doesn't have much feeling for the so-called fame and honor. For him, he only needs to protect the people close to him."

"So, it will be a difficult opponent." Another person added.

"For Isaiah, does Mr. Rock have any good suggestions?"

The words turned to a corner of the room, a man covered his face with a hat, leaned on a wooden chair and closed his eyes to meditate.

"He and I were friends when we were young, and we each fought each other in the camps of the Eastern and Western Empires before, and we knew a lot. This does not mean that we can fully grasp each other's thoughts. I can only provide some suggestions or ideas to let Everyone will not easily fall into his traps and traps." He took off his hat with his hands and sat up.

After a modest self-introduction, Rock slowly told about Isaiah's previous deeds, and the characteristics and tendencies of the command in the war, which also allowed the generals present to slowly find their way.

Unlike those generals in the empire who came from prestigious schools, most of the generals in the Dryas are young, only in their 30s. After all, this organization has only been established for a short time, and there are very few graduates of Emenas in the army, not to mention the indomitable ones. The high-achieving students of Qiaodun College, their military strategy knowledge is all continuously summarized in the actual combat by the organization, and slowly explored and practiced from the knowledge teaching.

Although there are some places that are not as good as those geniuses, the excellent organization and disciplined army also allow them to win without too clever military strategy command. In addition, if an organization's army can only rely on the commander's excellent intelligence to win, then this has reached a very dangerous state, and it is a last resort and something that should be avoided as much as possible.

After a short month of peace, the two sides fought again at the end of July. The warmest season in the northern border has also become the most difficult season for the northern lords.

In the early days, the Dryas's army had the upper hand and gradually approached the territory where Her Majesty the Queen was. However, in the ensuing battle, they encountered a major ambush and surprise attack. A large amount of supplies and materials were burned, and the fierce resistance of the local residents also caused Many righteous soldiers hesitated and their morale was low.

The heavily damaged former army had to stop again, and the rear base camp of the Dryas also sent an order to temporarily stop the attack.

"Why!?"

Although it has been expressed that it will respect the orders of the rear headquarters, some officers on the front line are still full of anger and confusion.

"Enough is enough. If we continue like this, we will deviate from our original intention." The messenger replied.

Unlike the front-line officers who have been trapped and wrapped up in various emotions, the rear of the organization has been looking at the issue of fighting the northern border cautiously and calmly.

"What we want is a united country, a future of mutual happiness, and if the war is allowed to continue with such brutality and aggression, then such an idea will be shattered."

Now the intensity of the war in the North has exceeded the original preset threshold, which has to make the Dryas organization pause and start to conceive new methods to solve the problem in a gentle and more effective way.

It may be a matter of a few months to rely on force and violence to unify, but the sequelae and historical problems brought about by the war will not be quelled even if it takes a hundred years. This is why the Dryas organization is so cautious. The past history is vivid. The reason why they set up such an organization is to prevent the same tragedy from happening.

"Our enemies have never been the residents and the public in the northern border, or those are the ones I need to fight for, our future brothers and comrades-in-arms, but the real enemies are actually only a small group, that is, the original The aristocrats, those who hold power, but are extremely rigid and conservative."

After explaining the reason for this order, although the officers gradually understood, they were worried about the future policy.

If you don't rely on war, do you still count on verbal wars to make the other party give up?

"It's not a war of words. Even I know that such a thing is unrealistic. It's just that what we need is something that can change the situation of the battle and reduce casualties at the same time."

"So, what are you referring to?"

"Just wait for a while, and you will understand in a few months."

Uncharacteristically, the army organized by the Dryas tree no longer insisted on attacking, and started a new round of defense construction to appease the people.

A lot of seeds and fertilizers were shipped from the south, and many elves who were good at planting were also mobilized to the north to help the local residents who were short of food to start farming, and strive to obtain enough food in the second half of the year to supplement those who were expropriated by the nobles. The few granaries left.

The northern border was originally barren, and within a few years after the cold disaster, food was still in short supply and needed to be procured and transported. On the eve of this war, the nobles expropriated a large amount of food, which caused many local residents to be in half-time. state of starvation.

It’s just that this kind of situation is often covered up by cruel and direct wars, and no one cares and pays attention to it. It was not until the time passed, and in the second half of the year, that the famine situation gradually spread, and many residents began to worry and panic.

This assistance from Dryas can be said to hit people's hearts directly, and it has softened the local residents who had been fiercely resisting, and it has also greatly relieved the overworked members of the organization responsible for appeasing them.

Slowly, when the troops stationed in various places helped the local residents cultivate, some ideas and concepts finally began to spread to the local residents who were gradually loosening up.

For people who work with you, reclaim the land, help you build reservoirs, roads, houses, sit by the campfire, eat together, and talk about the world, it is difficult for you to be as hostile as in the past.

Slowly, with this kind of simple behavior, the members of the Dryas organization were gradually accepted by the local people, and they began to communicate with each other. Occasionally, they visited each other, sent food, worked together, and talked about their hometowns. about the future, about the children, about the future life and so on.

When people have good expectations and imaginations for the future, then everything will be peaceful and stable.

During the chats and exchanges among the members of the Dryas organization, these residents also gradually learned what life in the southern border is like now, the civilization of the new world, the incompleteness and inadequacy of the past system, the fact that the empire will eventually be eliminated, and so on.

If one person's words may be lying, but hundreds of people, thousands of people, are they all lying, and are they all speaking so truthfully, logically and vividly?

Some things cannot be stopped once they start. Once the mind is awakened, it will be difficult to return to the previous chaotic state.

Gradually, the local residents no longer had tense relations with the local garrison, and were on guard against each other, and various construction projects of the Dryas were gradually carried out.

At first, it used work as relief, allowing everyone to participate in the construction of roads, then distributed food and food, and then organized and established a local branch of Dryas, slowly attracting locals to join.

Finally, the northern border was slowly assimilated and joined the organization, becoming a member of it.

The second half of the year passed slowly, and by November, the roads between the front line of the northern border and the central part of the empire had basically been cleared and leveled, and the traffic became much faster. And at this time when many residents were preparing for the winter, each small black Shadows flew across the winter stratus in the sky.

Cedar collar, three post mountains.

Feather-like snowflakes are constantly falling from the sky, filling the sky and the earth, and the white flakes of the snow are everywhere, dancing in the north wind.

The forests and rocks on the land are covered with thick snow, forming a huge contrast with the dark leaves below and the ground, like a pure white world dotted with countless black spots.

In this howling cold wind, iron-gray shadows flew high in the sky, the fortress and city walls below were so small, covered with thick snow and blended into the surrounding environment.

Deflecting the wings, looking through the hoarfrost-covered glass, passing through the snowy world, and finally fixed on the castle on the mountainside in the distance.

These iron-gray figures began to descend and dive.

The snow flakes were crushed into powder on the wings of the high-speed flying across the sky, stained and turned into hoarfrost and ice on the wings, and as these wings pushed down, the roar of the propellers began to grow louder, and the sound of the wind on the mountain peak reverberates.

Adjusting the direction, the fuselage turned an arc, avoiding the tall mountain on the right, and piercing through the huge canyon in front, and dense buildings can be seen below. This is a northern city, many of which are still smoking.

But these flying shadows didn't stop, but continued to move forward until they gradually reached the destination in the field of vision.

The cover under the cabin was pulled open, and the heavy and black projectile fell down, looking like a thin black line from a distance.

The rising explosion flame cloud broke the silence of this winter day, and the huge explosion sound accompanied by the fire came a few seconds later, accompanied by the huge shock wave, such an explosion went up the foot of the mountain, sending the The strong fortresses and castles were directly flooded with flames.

The blazing fire shook the nearly static cold world.

In the cold winter, there is a suffocating heat wave spreading, the snow on the surrounding mountain peaks is rolling down, and the sound of snow melting water is everywhere.

When the first batch of iron gray shadows flew over, the forts and towers that originally stood on the mountainside had all collapsed, and there were traces of flames burning everywhere, forming a strong contrast with the snow-white land.

But this is not the end, more and more grand clusters are approaching.

Those iron-grey steel bodies~www.readwn.com~ passed through the insurmountable peaks and frozen soil in winter, and came to this distant mountain range, the sound of the propellers on their wings converging into one piece, so The shock, covering the sky.

The local residents looked at the sky from a distance, and saw countless pictures that countless people will never forget in this life.

The wings made of steel cover the sky and block out the sun, roaring endlessly, bringing a trembling whistling sound, and countless black figures falling down.

After these figures descended for a long distance in the sky, they opened up again in the air, forming white circular cones one after another.

The soldiers of the Dryas landed in a surprise attack on the core of the northern border. Once they landed, they quickly gathered and advanced, breaking through the incomplete defense lines one by one, knocking down the guards stationed there, and heading towards the ruins where the flames were gradually cooling. go ahead.

Their goal is to end this war with the least casualties.

With the most violent explosion and attack, give the world the last tenderness.
