Wow!
Densely packed explosive bombs were neatly placed in front of the soldiers.
Even though they were prepared in their hearts, the soldiers couldn't help showing sad faces and shook their heads helplessly.
They skillfully removed the finger-long explosive bullets, placed them in large magazines, and then placed them in the storage space.
Although the work is relatively simple, every soldier does it very seriously.
Because they know very well that the more magazines they store now, the more ammunition they will have in battle and the stronger their combat effectiveness will be.
In addition to preparing for battle, it is also a way to hone their patience and discipline.
The Gulf leadership, which attaches great importance to discipline and cooperation, will naturally strengthen arrangements and training in this area.
A larger number of combat puppets were parked neatly on the energy replenishment platform.
They are exuding a faint blue light, with beautiful enchanted lines and special materials, and are gradually integrating with the dark forest environment.
They are loading combat programs suitable for the dark forest, and are replenishing energy and adjusting combat equipment.
Lianna, who looked calm, said to the Gulf Commanders very simply:
"Our goal in this battle is to capture the entire Dark Forest."
"The second goal is to catch as many trolls as possible."
“To achieve these two points, we must not only advance quickly, but also work closely together.”
"Pushing it all the way through will take the shortest time, but the intensity of the battle will definitely increase it."
"Once our attack is thwarted, knowing how powerful the Cole Elf Kingdom is, they will definitely step in to support the trolls."
"So, we need to formulate a rigorous combat plan with more error tolerance."
Gently rubbing her fingertips, Sera, who was wearing a set of gray and black combat armor, noticed that the area of the dark forest planned to be captured had reached 2.4 million square kilometers.
I don’t know since when, the strength of the Gulf Territory has grown to this point.
If you want to swallow such a large territory in one go, you don't have to use all your strength.
Sera now understood why there were many battles in the underground world and combat missions were also very important.
Lord Matthew and the senior commanders still want the elite Gray Elf troops to return to the ground to participate in this massive battle.
If you stay in one place forever, your growth will naturally slow down.
Only by fighting more enemies and targets can you continue to accumulate experience and stimulate your potential.
While Sera was thinking, she heard Lianna's final battle plan after discussing it with everyone.
"Ambush from all sides!"
March 25th.
The Gulf Territory mobilized 400,000 soldiers, plus more than 400,000 junior to advanced adventurers, and marched toward the dark forest.
The Gulf Territory did not hide its actions and immediately attracted the attention of a considerable portion of the entire northern continent.
Many people believe that this is the Gulf Territory's response to the Elf Kingdom of Cole's recent attacks.
Others believe that the Gulf Territory will continue to expand endlessly until the entire northern continent is controlled by them.
Only the Cole Elf Kingdom, which was most concerned about the Gulf Territory, immediately became vigilant.
They soon discovered that such a big move by the Gulf Territory was actually aimed at the Dark Forest.
At the beginning, the Cole Elf Council was still thinking about the Gulf Leader's purpose of taking the Dark Forest.
Until Councilor Caledor clearly displayed the map images of the entire northern continent, especially the Elf Kingdom of Cole, the Gulf Territory, and the Dark Forest.
It was only then that they were "surprised" to discover that if the Gulf Leader took over the Dark Forest.
Then they are bordering the elven kingdoms.
There are only three to four hundred kilometers of straight-line distance left to the east of the Cole Elf Kingdom.
Seeing that they were now alert, Councilor Caledo sighed in his heart and continued to warn them:
"Unless they want to start a full-scale war with us, the Gulf Territory will not take action."
"But once they completely capture the Dark Forest, their support for the El elves will be greatly improved."
"After all, by that time, the straight-line distance between the Gulf Territory and the El Elves will only be 700 kilometers."
"With the capabilities of the Gulf Territory's mechanical flying dragon and large teleportation circle, it can provide considerable help to the El elves."
"At that time, the entire Rocky Mountains will become the territory of the Gulf Territory, and the Gulf Territory can attack from any position..."
"Can our current defense lines and fortresses really be able to withstand the Gulf Territory's offensive?"
At this point, most of the congressmen were dumbfounded. Only Congressman Caledo sighed slightly in his heart.
These guys had no idea that the Gulf Territory was not like other opponents.
In the face of attacks and provocations, they never flinch, and will only launch counterattacks without hesitation, completely destroying the enemy and achieving absolute victory.
Moreover, since the Gulf Territory has chosen to take action at this time, even the mobilization of troops has no intention of concealing it.
This shows that they are fully prepared. The Cole Elf Kingdom will either straddle the Elf Kingdoms and directly send troops to help the trolls resist the Gulf Territory.
Or we can only accept the fact that the Gulf Territory is advancing!
Moreover, Councilor Caledor has no doubt that once the Cole Elf Kingdom chooses to send troops, it will fall into the trap set by the Gulf Territory.
A large number of elite forces have been sent out, and the rest are undergoing adjustment and training in the Cole Elf Kingdom.
It absolutely cannot withstand the three-pronged attack from the underground world, the El Elves, and the Canterlot Mountains.
You know, although there are many soldiers in the Cole Elf Kingdom, there are few new weapons and equipment to replace them.
Once the Gulf Territory helps these three parties launch an attack together, support a variety of weapons and equipment, and even guide them in combat.
Even if the legendary archmage of the Cole elves is dispatched, the Cole elves army will suffer heavy losses.
When that time comes, the Gulf Territory army that openly attacks the Dark Forest will definitely fight against the Cole Elf army at all costs.
Calculate a simple math problem!
Humanity can triple its population and combat power in just 20 years.
Although the fertility of Cole elves is not low, you can get pregnant within a year or two of hard work.
However, the growth and cultivation speed is too slow, at least three times slower than humans.
A life-and-death battle ensued between the two sides, and the timeline stretched to a hundred years.
Without the Cole Elves and gods taking action, even with the help of the Battle Mage, the Cole Elves were able to draw a tie with the Gulf Territory's mechanical golem-like army.
It’s definitely a huge loss!
The previous disastrous defeat of the Cole Elf army in the Rocky Mountains made many Cole Elves "roar."
If the losses in the battle with the Gulf Territory this time were too large, the problem would not have been solved by pushing a few unlucky guys to take the blame last time.
Who would have thought that the Gulf Territory's golem technology, mechanical technology, and arcane technology would actually surpass the Cole Elf Kingdom, and even form an army in a systematic manner.
The army of the Cole Elf Kingdom has just begun its transformation under the repeated attacks and oppression from the Gulf Territory.
It will take at least several years or even longer to fully strengthen the combat effectiveness and reach the point where it can compete with the Gulf Army.
No matter what, this battle with disproportionate combat power must not be fought!
It can only be said that the timing of the arrest by the Bay Leader was really "terrible".
But then Congressman Caledo thought about it, and the timing of every card in the Gulf Territory seemed to be so "accurate"!
No, it can’t be said to be accurate!
Rather, they have been prepared and specially designed for the Cole Elf Kingdom!
That would appear to be such a "coincidence"!
Councilor Caledo kept silent about these thoughts.
The elf councilors who are arguing now have not focused on this aspect.
Even if Senator Caledor said it, they wouldn't believe it.
Even if they believed it, there was no good solution, and they might even pass the blame on him.
Whoever raised the problem has to solve it, right?
Councilor Caledo watched them discuss for a long time, and finally reached a decision not to send troops amid a mixture of anger and calmness.
"It's so funny..."
Just as Senator Caledor thought.
Since the Gulf Territory has decided to take action, there will definitely be no flaws or weaknesses left behind.
Densely packed mechanical flying dragons passed directly over the dark forest.
The bomb has been prepared for a long time.
It landed precisely on the marked spot.
boom! boom! boom!
Groups of destructive fires bloomed in the dense dark forest.
Terrifying bombs destroyed the houses of many troll clans and tribes.
The main target of the attack is not the leaders of these troll clans and tribes, but the food they have finally collected.
Although the Dark Forest is rich in products, most of the trolls' food is based on hunting and gathering.
These foods are destined not to be stored for too long.
This means that they cannot store much food.
The bombing of mechanical flying dragons.
All over the dark forest.
When trolls hear the sound of whizzing through the sky, they often feel very lucky and pray silently at the same time.
I hope the next bomb will not fall on their heads.
After the mechanical flying dragon bombed several times.
Occupying the sky position in the dark forest are groups of bay leader flying dragon knights.
The powerful flying dragon is far larger, stronger and faster than the ordinary flying dragon.
Under the training of the Gulf Territory, they have become more powerful in combat and wisdom.
The flying magical creatures in the dark forest are no match for them.
Even the occasional legendary magical creatures dare not compete with the hordes of super-level flying dragons.
Not to mention that the flying dragon knights who are armed to the teeth can make these flying dragons have stronger combat effectiveness.
After killing a group of magic creatures without eyes, or the Bat Knights and Flying Dragon Knights sent by the trolls.
The flying dragon knight troops of the Gulf Territory easily occupied the sky of the dark forest.
They are not as high as the mechanical flying dragons, but often pass above the dark forest.
The resounding roars of the flying dragons exuded majesty and momentum, easily frightening most of the troll tribes and clans.
They inevitably gathered together, fearing that the dragon knight would attack. But they don't dare to gather together completely, because all kinds of bombs will fall from the sky.
Just two or three days of bombing experience.
This caused the vast majority of ordinary troll tribes to collapse.
The Gulf Territory has seized the opportunity and sent combat troops to the border of the dark forest in the northwest.
Two or three days' work was enough for them to build fortresses and bunkers.
When the bunkers and fortresses were established, the teleportation array area that was first established was immediately at full capacity.
More materials and personnel were transported here.
They quickly arranged the defense line as quickly as possible.
At the edge of the dark forest, more outposts and warning areas were arranged.
Roads and golem train tracks connecting bunkers and fortresses will also be quickly built.
Patrol troops and armed trains will block this place, isolating the dark forest from inside and outside.
This is the core line of defense. Enemies inside and outside will continue to be attacked by them.
More lines of defense and defense facilities will be deployed on both sides.
Adventurers who are very experienced in this area will take over defensive operations and defense tasks where the battles are not too frequent.
The regular combat troops in the Gulf Territory began to advance further.
Their method of advancement is the simplest and most simple way of advancing city construction.
Every few kilometers they moved forward, they built bunkers and camps.
Once the long-range artillery array is established, it can control the surrounding resources and areas.
The troll tribes scattered throughout these areas would be beaten up as soon as they came into contact with the Gulf Territory's army.
Whether it is a small-scale combat force or a large-scale group advancement.
The troll tribes are no match for the Gulf Leaders.
Whoops!
The dull sound of breaking through the air flew over one after another.
The troll guard had no defense and was hit instantly.
Then there was a dense explosion, and the terrible destructive power spread to the surroundings.
The troll guard, who had a strong ability to recover, was not killed.
However, they were severely injured and could not see the enemy's position at all.
They don't know where the attacks are coming from and how to defend against them.
Even if there is no death, injuries and torture can still make them unable to resist.
Forced by desperation, they could only retreat to the camp and never dare to go out again.
Because once their number increases, the mechanical flying dragons in the sky will roar in, bringing about real death that they cannot resist.
And when they muster up the courage again, they are ready to go out to find food, or to fight.
Towering bunkers, fortresses, camps, and cannonballs roaring from afar will immediately knock away the little energy they have left.
With the people's hearts broken, the elite armed forces cannot carry out organized operations, let alone these scattered trolls.
Hunger left these trolls unable to resist, and just when they gathered together, they were ready to rush out and fight to the death.
The sound of breaking through the air that made them frightened came from above again.
They stared at the mechanical flying dragon in horror and blindness, and the unspeakable pain in their hearts completely enveloped them.
Many trolls are silently waiting for death and destruction.
However, what they were waiting for was not bombs falling from the sky, but rather lightweight wooden boxes.
As the wooden box fell, it was shattered in front of the trolls.
One after another, fist-sized meatballs were scattered in the troll camp.
The extremely hungry trolls smelled the smell of these meatballs, and a little bit of disbelief flashed in their eyes, so they tentatively picked them up and took a bite.
The bitter and astringent meatballs bring all their expressions together.
But the protest from their stomachs made them swallow the unpalatable meatballs.
The bitter taste made all the trolls wail in pain.
The troll who had not tasted it was startled and thought it was poisonous.
However, they soon discovered that their companions who had eaten these meatballs had obviously regained some strength even though their screams were unpleasant and their expressions were extremely ferocious.
Driven by hunger, they couldn't help but swallow the meatballs.
Soon, the entire camp began to echo with shrill screams.
However, these trolls who were about to starve to death still survived.
No matter how stupid these trolls are, they still understand what the Gulf Territory means.
That is, if they don't run out, they can survive, and the Gulf Territory will give them food.
But if they don't obey, the things that fall down won't be these meatballs that are so unpalatable that even the trolls don't want to eat more.
But eternal destruction!
The mighty Gulf Leader army "surrounded" the dark forest from all directions.
They moved forward step by step, building bunkers and fortresses one after another, dividing the troll tribes and clans and imprisoning them in place.
The imagined situation of the Gulf Territory being attacked by a group did not happen.
Some are just simple advancements and can be done easily.
Relying on the super powerful weapons, the trolls were completely powerless to resist and were imprisoned one after another.
There are also some smart trolls who have decisively chosen to surrender and want to be the ones leading the way.
If it had been before, Bayland would have taken them.
But now the situation is completely different. The Gulf Territory captured them without hesitation and sent them to the rear of the territory.
The frontline troops have basically controlled the situation, and many staff and researchers from the Gulf Territory have also rushed here.
It is also an essential gain for the integration and development of dark forest resources.
The population of the Gulf Territory is increasing, the professional group is getting larger and larger, and the resources required are naturally becoming more and more.
Although the resources now developed and sustainably produced in the Gulf Territory are amazing.
Not only can it meet the territory's own needs, but it can also be sold to allies and trading partners on a large scale.
However, the Gulf Territory is accustomed to taking precautions and taking a long-term view to establish more recyclable resource bases.
The dark forest, which is rich in resources and has huge potential, is a treasure trove that the Gulf Territory needs to develop and maintain.
Only occupying 1/5 of the dark forest, the Gulf Territory has developed hundreds of high-level and super-level resource points, and even legendary resource points are under preparation.
If we can capture all the Dark Forest, even if the population of the Gulf Territory is several times larger, we can still be self-sufficient.
Such an important role is more important than supporting the El elves, but it is more important to deter the Cole Elf Kingdom.
However, for other territories and forces, they believe that the expansion of the Gulf Territory's power is to show their influence and annex.
The rapid advance of the Gulf Territory greatly exceeded the expectations of the Cole Elf Kingdom.
In particular, the battle videos with adventurers as the main body were released and promoted throughout the northern continent.
Their various harvests immediately attracted the attention of many adventurers.
Watching adventurers who are not as powerful as themselves make a lot of money under the leadership of the Gulf Leader.
The most important thing is that they took almost no risks.
The actions of most adventurers in the video are to aim and shoot, and then move quickly.
As long as you do these things, you will receive more than hundreds of gold coins every day.
With such an amazing harvest, how can we not be excited?
As a result, more adventurers quickly rushed towards the dark forest from all over the northern continent.
The way the Cole Elf Kingdom showed its strength only caused a little stir, but the Gulf Territory regained the focus and attention.
It doesn’t matter if they fight now or if they don’t fight.
If we continue to fight, we will not be as unscrupulous as the Gulf leaders, showing invincible power, which will always feel a bit embarrassing.
But if you don’t fight, then others will have more to say.
"In two months at most, the Gulf Territory will be able to completely control the Dark Forest without paying any price."
Councilor Caledor stared at the dark forest in the distance, turned to look at Archaon, noticed the terrifying aura exuding from his body, and said with emotion:
"The development capabilities of the Gulf Territory are really strong. Not only is the route correct and the potential is unlimited, but it also has a unified will."
"Looking at it now, all the forces in the entire northern continent cannot compete with it, even if they don't have a population of 20 million yet."
Archaon said nothing, and the expression on his face was even stiffer, but his eyes were still filled with blazing anger.
He hesitated for a long time, but in the end he still did not take that step. He turned his head and stared in the direction of the Cole Elf Kingdom, and said in a calm tone:
"I will continue to go north to find stronger power."
"I will take away a group of people and cultivate their strength."
Councilor Caledo did not dissuade him, but nodded silently, still choosing to support him.
He looked at the dark forest that would soon belong to the Gulf Territory and could already vaguely "see" it.
Dense cities and camps will appear in the dark forest, which will be completely controlled and transformed by the Gulf Territory.
If nothing happens, unless the entire dark forest is destroyed, it will not leave the control of the Gulf Territory.
And just when the Gulf Territory successfully conquered the dark forest, in order to distract the heat and attention from him.
A huge army of orcs rushed down from the wild plateau.
In addition to attacking the Scarlet Castle and Kal Plain, a larger orc army entered from the northwest of the Netheril Empire.
The northwest lords of the empire, whose strength had not been restored in the first place, fled efficiently this time and led others to escape first.
What's interesting is that he easily "killed" the entire orcs in the northwest of the Netheril Empire.
Instead of continuing towards the interior of the Netheril Empire, they went all the way south, passed through the Netheril Empire, and rushed into other human kingdoms.
The impact range exceeds 8,000 kilometers, almost splitting the entire northern continent in the middle.
The powerful performance that shocked the continent caused many human kingdoms and forces to shout:
The orc disaster is coming! (End of chapter)
