690 Battle of the Four Golden Pillars Part 7

The morning air is so fresh and beautiful. The rising sun casts thousands of rays of rays on this fertile land. The autumn sun shines warmly on the body, giving it an uninviting feeling. But the fat man was not in a good mood. Early in the morning, he led one hundred and twenty carefully selected Guards Cavalry from Amyra to prepare to head east into Palavon.

All you see along the way are ruins and desolate buildings, with only the cold river flowing quietly, as if telling everything that happened not long ago. △ is the richest area in Ruidian, with rich products and the most densely populated area.

However, because of the tug-of-war with the Dongting people over the past year, corpses were everywhere and the blood was cold. Especially the main force of the three knights led by Plais had a tragic battle with 40,000 Dongting cavalry in Ruibo. The incomparable tug-of-war almost completely destroyed several areas centered on Rebogen.

After the war, the people suffered and the population dropped sharply. Later, when Rui Erdian was defeated, Dongting launched a massacre, claiming that not even a stone would be spared, which finally created an uninhabited scene in this area.

Although many of the Falcon Guards Cavalry were warriors who had experienced many bloody battles, they felt silent in their hearts when they saw the broken weapons, the incompletely decayed military flags, and the vaguely exposed bones that could be seen everywhere on the roadside. The guide leading the way seemed even more silent, with numbness in his eyes.

"No matter whether the war is won or lost, the civilians will always suffer." There was a faint tremor in Fatty's heart. The war here had just dissipated, and new news came from the Yeruige defense line. Under the deliberate drive of the Dongting cavalry, the occupied area in the northern part of Ruierdian A large number of refugees came to the Palaven defense line. It is estimated that there are about 700,000 refugees. This number not only frightened Ruilidian Kyoto, but even the fat man trembled a little when he heard it.

It's just that the two sides have different thoughts. This year there is a severe drought in the southern part of the mainland, and the grain harvest in many places has failed. The same is true for Rui Erdian. In previous years, it could still rely on grain-producing areas such as Ruibogen in the north.

But this year, not only has most of the north been lost, but the largest grain-producing area, Rebogen, has been turned into a wasteland. Now even Palaven, Kyoto, is in short supply of food. Suddenly faced with 700,000 mouths to eat, the Ruidian royal family In addition to despair, we will follow the method of previous years to drive these refugees to the south. But now the south is facing a hunger riot. Once these 700,000 refugees enter the south, the Ruidian Kingdom will be completely destroyed.

The impatient Ruidian royal family first thought of the wealthy Falcon Dynasty next to them. It was the richest country in the mainland and a major grain-producing country. Although there was a drought this year, it was generally a bumper harvest. As a result of Fatty's insistence on vigorously developing water conservancy and irrigation facilities, he quickly sent people to help Fatty and invited Fatty to go to Palaven to attend the latest emergency meeting to discuss the disposal of these 700,000 refugees.

Fatty is indeed a little moved by these 700,000 refugees. The population of the entire Falcon Dynasty has just exceeded 10 million. The population of the three northern counties that were just accepted from Rui Erdian has dropped sharply due to the war, and is less than the original three counties. One of them. As a resource-rich county, insufficient population has seriously restricted the strong thinking that the three northern counties should have.

The mining industry and agriculture, which consume extremely population resources, require sufficient population to support them. Although the strategy of emigrating some grassland people from the Kugit people has been decided, the population base is still very thin. If this can be If all 700,000 refugees are eaten, it can just fill in the population lost in the three northern counties.

On the second day, Yang Sufeng entered the outskirts of Palaven, and the scene here was even more tragic. Many once prosperous cities, this large alluvial plain that once had a population of nearly three million, have now completely turned into ruins

Even the river that passes through the city is blocked by all kinds of debris because there is almost no one to clear it. The city is filled with an unpleasant rotten smell, and there are still corpses that have not yet completely decomposed hanging on the charred tree trunks.

This was all the result of the Dongting people's revenge, because the Princess of the Royal Court was captured and insulted by the Ruidian negotiator during the negotiation. A bloody storm swept across the entire Palaven Plain.

Within three days, the hooves of the Dongting cavalry turned several cities near Yeruige into a bloody hell.

It was an extremely cruel three days. More than ten thousand people were massacred. More than 40 prosperous villages and towns were completely wiped off the map. The Dongting people's scimitars shocked the entire continent.

No matter how stoic the fat man is in his heart, he doesn’t dare to look at this hell on earth for a long time. Among the ruins, there is still a shabby military flag standing tall. It was the military flag of the Ruildian Army in the past, like a torn into pieces. Rag, this continental hegemon that once dominated the continent for hundreds of years, is just like this battle flag, shattered and miserable.

With a heavy heart, Fatty left the deserted town, slept in the wild for a night, and continued on his way the next day. After crossing the Longylus River where fierce battles were fought, we can finally see human settlements in the area ahead. Although it is a bit decayed and desolate, at least we can still see living people.

At around 12:00, I entered the Kyoto Palavon area. Only then did I see soldiers from the Ruidian Army patrolling. The number of people on the roadside gradually increased. I finally saw a tavern and inns, and pedestrians coming and going. There are also some business trips, but compared with Wikiya, they still seem too desolate and desolate.

Horse hooves flying, the Falcon Cavalry in ferocious black armor rode majestically through the avenue, attracting many passers-by's glances.

The sun at noon was scorching and hot. The lazy fat man was sweating profusely. He sat down in a tavern on the mountain road to drink water. Unexpectedly, before the water came, he heard the sound of horse hooves. He looked up and was stunned.

"It's really a narrow road for enemies to meet."

The fat man's face was slightly cold, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He saw a team of Rieldian knights escorting a handsome young nobleman in. This man has a handsome figure,

He is wearing extremely luxurious clothes, and with the guard knight wearing a red cloak next to him, he looks noble. Behind this young noble, there is a familiar, graceful red figure

It is an extremely arrogant, cold and pretty like a flower on a snowy mountain.

It is Tirnuris, who escaped from the Tir family during the Vikia Civil War. After that mountain road, I heard that this person has been following her brother.

Could this young man be Tirnalant? The fat man narrowed his eyes and made a gesture of preparing for battle to the guards resting next to him. Meeting the patriarch of the Tir family who hated him deeply in this narrow mountain road is not the other party's destiny or fate. This time it can only be regarded as the other party's bad luck.

After not seeing each other for a year, Tirnuris seems to have matured a lot, and looks more charming, but there is a deep sadness between her eyebrows, as if she has never smiled.

She jumped off the horse with a nimble figure, and immediately caught a glimpse of the fat man with a silly look. Her body stood there stiffly as if acupuncture points were hit.

"It's you"

Tilnuris's face looked very strange. She immediately touched the horse's long sword and wanted to rush, but immediately realized it, hesitated and retreated, and whispered, "Will you be here?"

"? Tyr, do you know this person?"

The young noble frowned slightly, and seemed a little unhappy that Tilnuris knew this ugly fat man. Because they were in a hurry when they set out, the fat man just took one from the guard camp. Compared with ordinary mail armor, it was better, but compared with the exquisite mail armor of high nobles, it seemed a little inferior. With a slick face, he really looked like a mercenary.

He could see that this humble mercenary made Tilnuris very nervous. The always cold and arrogant Fire Rose It was rare news that Gui was afraid of men. Could it be that this man had hurt Tirnuris?

"You are a noble. If it is not necessary, don't be polite to these lowly guys."

The young noble waved to the guards behind him, looked at the fat man with contempt, curled his lips, and said with great disdain, "I killed a mercenary on this mountain road. In this chaotic era, it is really a common thing."

"Mercenary... "

The fat man laughed instead of getting angry. Amidst a burst of laughter,

"Clang" the guards around him thought it was a signal from the fat man, and they all drew out their Samor swords that flashed with cold light, and surrounded the young noble and several pale-faced guards knights.

"You, you want to do me, but I am an officer of the Royal Guards." The young noble shouted with a knight's sword in his hand. From his trembling sword-holding hand and pale face, he was completely the kind of flower raised in a greenhouse since childhood, where he had never seen such a battle.

"Stop" the fat man stopped the approaching steps of the guards. From the address of Tirneuris, the young man in front of him should not be Tirnalant, but may be Tirneuris's pursuer.

"He is my fiancé, Baron Lirastain of the Royal Guards." Tirneuris nodded and lowered her head, and whispered with a somewhat embarrassed look on her face. "My brother has already proposed a marriage with the Liras family."

"Oh? I don't know about such a big thing as a family marriage. Did the Tyr family agree? "The fat man was slightly stunned, with an expression of surprise, but he sneered in his heart, "Maybe, the people of the Tyr family don't want to live?" No skipping words.

Elnuris's face was pale, and her ten delicate fingers were clenched into fists. This shameless guy was still as hateful as ever.

She didn't know what the fat man meant by this sentence. Now the Tyr family has been controlled by the fat man. What's the difference between the so-called family consent and the fat man's consent?
