Chapter 787 18. The current crisis and the future crisis
“Are you setting off with the coalition forces?”
When they learned that Annan was going to the Northern Great Wall, the officials of the Imperial Military Department showed a hint of consternation. .
"I watched them grow from youth to maturity...I don't feel safe just leaving them on the Great Wall."
Behind Annan, there are those young people who are basically a head above Annan, resolute and bloody. The soldiers' eyes suddenly turned red.
Officials knew it and thought it was Annan's entire net worth.
"Well... you can follow, but we need to report to the palace."
"Of course."
Annan asked Blom and Fermi to form a team and take them with them The team followed the officials to the center of the camp.
Several epic mages stabilized a huge arched portal in the open space, and the fluctuations on the door were like ripples of lake water.
The Black Watch Legion of the Tatooine Empire walked into the portal first.
Annan looked at this ruthless and bloodthirsty legion with envy from a distance.
The Black Watch Legion is one of the eight imperial guard legions in the empire, with a total of 5,000 people. Different from the 5,000 people like Annan who gathered their numbers and pulled them out over several months... They are not only all professionals, but also 4,000 elite ordinary soldiers...
And 500 officers above the master level, and a large mage group composed of five hundred mage.
This is the background of one of the Thirteen Supreme Kings. One legion can almost destroy the current Kingdom of Rekaner.
The only thing Annan could think of to close the distance with the empire was that the first batch of coalition forces totaled 50,000 people, and he and the empire each accounted for one-tenth.
In any case, the stronger the empire, the harder it will be for this disaster to affect Middle-earth.
The second person to set off was actually Annan.
The departure order seems to be based on the number of troops - it cannot be based on favorability.
Annan greeted the nobles who had established a friendly relationship with the succubus, and walked into the portal with a hundred-man elite team, a five-hundred-man fourth legion, and a five-thousand-man Hellfire legion.
The moment he stepped out of the portal, Annan was sensitive to the changes in the surrounding environment.
Compared to the Montreal Mountains in the Middle Earth, the temperature at the edge of the northern border is lower, and...
Annan looked up at the towering and stretching Great Wall of the North.
This huge Great Wall with a height of more than fifty meters is like a wall of sighs, stretching between the North and the Middle Earth.
The Black Watch Legion in front is like a swarm of ants.
"Follow up."
Annan turned around and said, walking behind the imperial army.
The shock of looking from a distance comes from the admiration for human creation, while looking up from a distance is pure shock at the mammoth thing.
The standard height of a small mage tower is about fifty meters, so can you imagine that the mage tower in front of you stretches for hundreds of miles?
Annan couldn't help but pick up the magic stone and filmed this scene, preparing to use it as material for Evelin.
Officials from the Imperial Military Department glanced at him without rejecting him, and he might even be a little happy.
Climb up the edge steps to the top of the city wall. The wide rocky ground like a plain and some built houses confirm Annan’s conjecture: the northern Great Wall is a completely rocky mountain...
If the Ratmen want to dig through this place, then just wait until their teeth are polished.
"The legendary fortress of the dwarves, the 'Giant Wall' is just like this. They built a city wall as wide as a city at the edge of the world. They built the city wall for generations and lived on it. It is said that the city wall has reached the clouds. The city wall alone Hundreds of millions of people can live in the passages in it..." Blom told a story that everyone knows but Annan does not know.
“Real or fake?”
"Of course it's false." Blom refuted the rumor, "Why did the dwarves give birth to so many children?"
"So who is the legendary fortress resisting?" "Who knows, ratmen, demons, zerg, green Pi... there are all kinds of rumors." Blom shrugged, "Otherwise, so many dwarves couldn't have spent tens of thousands of years building walls there."
"..."
Annan, who had just felt a sense of security due to the appearance of Black Watch, suddenly felt that the world was in danger again.
The current total length of the Northern Great Wall is one hundred miles. When placed among the thirty forces that make up the coalition, each force is responsible for a three-mile-long defense line.
While they are stationed here, the east and west are still spreading to both sides. The empire extravagantly used archmages and earth element elders to infuse the city walls, extending them at a rate of tens of meters per day.
Annan came to the edge of the city wall. In the distance was a vast mixed area of forest and grassland, but before long, this beautiful woodland would be covered by death and plague...
For the rat people In other words, this is a great wall of despair.
"No attack can break this wall!" the imperial official who followed Annan said proudly.
"Oh, damn..."
Annan suddenly felt that something was going to happen.
So much so that when the officials of the Imperial Military Department assigned them a defense line - right next to the Imperial troops, Annan immediately took the goblins to knock around the foundation, looking for possible problems, and even the next door The Black Watch station was also inspected.
Of course the Black Watch Legion knew about the relationship between this little warlock and the empire, and allowed Annan to check around. They even sent a team of soldiers and mages to help Annan investigate.
What makes Annan feel a little relieved is that the city wall is still very stable.
It's night after a busy trip. Annan returned to his house.
Except for the city walls with torches and magic lamps stuck everywhere, and the city wall stretching with light, there was deathly darkness in front and behind, which made Annan see the sea of stars for the first time in a long time.
What woke Annan up from his admiration was the long motorcade that appeared like a train carrying supplies.
In addition to food and daily necessities, there are also some magic scrolls. Annan thought it was a bit early, but who would dislike too much of a good thing?
At this time, Annan discovered that the food they distributed was very small, which was far from enough for the consumption of 5,600 people...
"The food given is too little. We have many people." Annan stopped the supplies officer.
"Others also distributed it in this way."
"Including Black Watch?"
The material officer was silent for a moment, and finally said that he had no right to give Annan more things. .
"I thought he would at least take my face into account." Annan was helpless, after all, she was not a woman.
"People here don't have much chance to see magical images, so it's normal if they don't know you," Blom said.
The convoy that finished distributing supplies continued to move forward. Watching them leave, Annan frowned and said, "We have to find a way to get supplies."
As for letting Liberty City pay for it out of its own pocket...how is that possible!
"Shall we talk to the Black Watch Legion?" Blom suggested.
“Complaining? That will only make others look down on you.” Fermi said.
"If you can get supplies, it doesn't matter whether you look down on them or not." Annan shrugged, "But you are right, we want to build our own reputation, so we must avoid showing weakness."
"You are right. Is there any way?”
“I met a quartermaster at the dinner party in Montreal Mountain. That person should be able to help me!”
As he said that, Annan hurried towards him. his residence.
Blohm and Fermi looked at each other.
"I think it must be a woman."
