Magic Tower Starry Sky

Chapter 1633: northern battlefield

Of course, the work of collecting and transporting the materials needed to build the magic tower and magic circle city cannot be completed in one day, even with the assistance of a human fleet.

At the same time, it is so big that it involves the actions of all the nobles and large chambers of commerce of the two empires, so of course don't want to keep it secret. And because the emperor is only responsible for ordering, not responsible for explaining to anyone. For a time, all kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky.

Rumors spread wildly, there are those who eat melons to watch the show, and of course there are also those who are concerned. In particular, the two major factions of Vader's military nation and the floating island of Ada stopped their respective military operations and tried their best to dig out the truth behind these things.

However, there is an insider who wants to be busy with different things than other people. That is the former Grand Duke of the Gwana Empire and the current commander of the coalition forces in the northern battlefield, Ricardo Carvey.

He spent half a day asking his airship troop to investigate the northern part of the Fengdi Mountains, whether there were any remaining demons or the coalition forces of the evil faction from the underground world.

As a person who was close to the battlefield, witnessed a round of bombardment by the robot fleet, and watched the almost covered sky be rendered in a strange color by blue electric light and red fire light, the old man didn't think that the demon army could survive.

Now his only question is whether there will be any surviving and lonely demons left in the Lost Land. Or an out-of-spec strongman like the orc and a half survived such a bombardment.

With such doubts in mind, the old man ordered all the troops to stand by on the spot and sentry out everywhere to ensure the safety of the surrounding area. At the same time, the airship troops were ordered to start investigations. After all, the airships had a wider and faster investigation range.

Half a day may not be enough for the airship to sweep every inch of the land designated as the northern battlefield, but it is also enough for them to confirm one thing, that is, the enemies have all disappeared.

disappear! Such words meant that they couldn't even see the corpses, and of course there were no traces left by the battle. This refers to the battle in the era of cold weapons, such as broken swords, shattered shields, broken flags, arrows and so on.

Even the location of the suspected military camp could not be found anywhere. There are some abandoned camps, but these sites were abandoned earlier, not just recently.

To be honest, even if the magician army cleaned up the land on a large scale, it would not be what they saw. Therefore, no one dared to guess or imagine what happened behind this inanimate silence.

The old man who got the information was the quickest to adjust his mentality. Rather than saying that he raised the upper limit of what the magician could do, it is better to say that it is the responsibility he bears that prevents him from being immersed in that inexplicable fear.

The army is out, people eat horse chews, and they burn money every day.

Besides, the war has continued to this day. If the lord leads the team personally, after the enemy is gone, they will naturally return to their own territory; if the team is led by a general, how many kings or nobles can rest assured that the military power is in the hands of outsiders? , and this army has nothing to do.

Therefore, all armies have to be reorganized, and some are even dismantled in situ. In the absence of enemies, if any general dares to hold on to military power, he will probably be preparing for a civil war next.

However, the old Lord Kawei is not yet ready to be relieved of his duties and go back to the imperial court to listen to orders. He took over another duty, which was to lead the three regular legions of the empire to stand by at the gate of the abyss and defend on the spot.

Also receiving similar orders is the airship unit of the Haider Empire.

Since the Haider Empire did not send many ground troops, the emperor of the empire was not in a hurry to recall the troops sent. Instead, order the airship troops to form on the spot, and also go to the gate of the abyss to wait.

In particular, it also explained that standby is not about meddling in the abyss gate, but just watching from the sidelines. Although there is also the intention of supervision, but to be honest, even if the robot fleet and the magician do not follow the agreement, it seems that they are powerless to stop or change anything.

The dispatched commander of the airship force is also a powerful figure in the Haider Empire. Otherwise, he would not be qualified to hold the important weapon of the country and would be dispatched abroad.

What's more, one of the five important imperial ministers who followed the emperor to participate in the high-seat meeting was the eldest brother of the airship commander, so he naturally knew more inside stories than others. Then there are not so many doubts about the current actions.

To say that the situation is the most embarrassing, the ones who can't stand up and down at this time are the troops formed by the civilian volunteers and the small country's army.

They didn't know the truth behind the incident, they only knew that the enemy who had caused them a headache was dealt with by the monster in the sky without thinking.

Although the order from the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces is to disassemble and go home. But what will happen next? Will there be enemies emerging from somewhere? If they disband, will they be caught off guard?

Many unanswered concerns made them dare not act rashly.

Those small country troops led by the king, or the private army led by noble lords, they are also afraid that after returning to the country in such an anticlimactic manner, if the enemy makes a comeback, they may not have time to react.

You must know that the current balance of power in the northern battlefield was actually achieved by the defeat of the southern front of the Suli Tang Empire.

With the great defeat that woke everyone up and the delay, the Gwana Empire had time to react. Not only is the line of defense against the demons arranged, but the counterattack in the later stage, as well as the current stalemate, all have a price.

If now they voluntarily give up these slight advantages that they have acquired at a huge price, if the subsequent development is different from everyone's imagination, and the war has not really ended, then what should we do?

However, those volunteers who came voluntarily from the people did not have as many psychological activities as those kings or noble lords of small countries.

Some ambitious people who planned to use this war to make meritorious deeds and earn fame began to form cliques during this time. Their eyes are all on this war-torn northern battlefield.

Let's say the war is actually over, and the duration of the war didn't actually last very long. Then the cultivated land that has already been reclaimed can resume production at any time as long as it is sorted out and manpower is added.

This is a wealth that everyone is envious of and within reach.

Don't say anything about the people who fled from the northern battlefield, whether there are legal lords of these lands, or descendants of the royal family. When they flee, these lands can be regarded as unclaimed land.

Even if these people can come back afterwards and claim the ownership of the land again, if there are already new residents on these lands, in terms of the law of Lost Land, the two groups of people before and after can be regarded as 'legal' owners.

The next thing to play is a winner takes all game. Simply put, if you choose not to resort to force, you will seek support everywhere. See who has a lot of supporters, whoever can come out to 'hold' justice, and whoever can stay and truly own this land.

This may sound like a mouthful, but in fact it does not escape the four elements of a country in political science: territory, people, government, and sovereignty.

Territory: A bunch of no man's land on the northern battlefield.

People: Many people become warriors with swords and farmers with hoes. So for those ambitious people, as long as they can pull an army to station and absorb some refugees who returned after fleeing, it is not a big problem for them to call themselves a country.

Government: Those who are willing to stay will of course form a ruling group with themselves as the core. Midi's definition of 'government' is not that strict, basically the fact that there is rule counts.

Sovereignty: Midi does not have the word 'sovereignty', nor does it have so many twists and turns. All in all, people with big fists speak; if their fists are not big enough, people with big fists who can shake them count.

Taking the situation in the northern battlefield as an example, ambitious people will inevitably pull out a force, and then occupy the land as king. At this time, even if the people who fled the famine return and claim the ownership of the land, they have only three choices:

First, compromise with the new occupiers and join them. At this time, you can usually only succumb to others, and you may not be able to obtain the same complete power as before. The common people are the easiest to compromise, but the former ruling class is not.

The second is to expel the new occupants by force. It's just that one side is the people who were driven away by the evil coalition forces such as demons and fled away; If there is no abnormality, the force of the former is weaker than that of the latter.

Third, find your father and hold your thigh. Then compare whose thighs are thicker and whose backstage is harder!

more importantly! If he loses face, would these thick thighs that show off their banners be willing to fight hand-to-hand for their end? You must know ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Some people borrow their names just to use them as a pretext, and if they really want to end themselves, they are absolutely unwilling.

So those who have ideas, naturally want to embrace the strongest thigh on the northern battlefield today - the former Grand Duke of Kavi of the Gwana Empire.

Inevitably, those people who are going to return after fleeing, if there are aristocrats among them, in order to maintain their dominance, they will also approach the old Kavi Duke for support.

There are even those who come from businessmen with some money in their pockets. They are not necessarily the residents of the former northern battlefield, but they just plan to take advantage of this chaotic time and come from aristocratic titles. Whether it's replacement, adoption, or name change, I just want to fulfill my desire to enter the power class.

Faced with the farce of these little people, the old Lord Kawei certainly didn't have the heart to respond, and in his capacity, he didn't need it, let alone respond to it. The grand duke of the empire, how can he take care of the affairs of the village head and the mayor level? Is it because he is too idle in normal times?

Therefore, those who are interested have no choice but to retreat and find those who also hold real power to seek their support.

For a while, the northern battlefield, where there were no enemies, was not as sharp as before, but it also secretly set off a complicated wave. Some people took advantage of the situation to rise, and some people just wiped out all sentient beings.

Don't think that those fled noble lords passed down from generation to generation will definitely be able to get the support of other powerful people. Guarding the land is also one of the responsibilities of the nobles. Since they were all driven out by the enemy and there were not a single citizen left, what face would they have to claim their own ownership?

Although there is a so-called tacit understanding among the nobles, they will join hands to prevent the people below from trying to cross or subvert the noble class. But this premise is that the price paid can be rewarded. If there is not enough return, no matter whether it is material or humane, who would be willing to do a white job?
