Chapter 2161 War Begins

It can be said that Duran provoked the civil war. Although this is an inevitable choice for social progress, war is always the worst thing for many people. Because many families will lose their loved ones, and the elderly will send their children to their deaths, and a large number of laborers will die.

It can be said that the reason why war is so cruel is that a large number of young people die in war. If the war is fought by old men and women in their seventies and eighties, there will definitely not be such serious negative social effects.

Death on the battlefield represents a serious lack of social labor, which means that no one will raise children and no one will raise the elderly. The death of a laborer affects the livelihood of an entire family.

So everyone is afraid of war, children are afraid, women are afraid, the elderly are afraid, and young and middle-aged people are afraid.

So war cannot only count the number of people who died on the battlefield, but also the number of people who died behind the battlefield.

The Magic Emperor did not want to fight, but he would fight if he had to, because if he did not fight now, the tragedy would only repeat in the future. Every ten years, a large robber group is eliminated. By eliminating these robber groups, the new members of the Knights have gained merits, and the lower-class people have reduced their population. This reality is more despicable than war.

So even if no one wants to fight, the Magic Emperor will promote the war. The victory of the war is to prevent the recurrence of the tragedy of ten years in the future.

Now that the problem has been discovered, it can no longer be ignored. Use this opportunity to completely complete the transformation.

Everyone feels the Magic Emperor's determination. They know that the Magic Emperor is very kind and it is not easy to make such a decision, but since the Magic Emperor has decided, no one can change it.

The masked man who reorganized the Knights of the Royal Capital and became the 29th Magic Emperor is also preparing for war.

"In this way, the magicians with elf souls will be safe." The masked man arranged all the magicians possessed by the elves in the reserve team. As for how other magicians kill each other, it has nothing to do with him. It is best to die.

It turns out that the masked man is really a spy of the White Eyes Magic Eye. He is Hitley, but he belongs to two souls sharing one body. His human soul still has feelings, but the human soul feels sorry for the elves, so he has been helping the elves. The more he retreats, the less initiative the human soul has. Now it is equivalent to the elf soul controlling the body.

A traitor who worked undercover in the Magic Knights for 20 years successfully became the Magic Emperor. This experience is enough to be legendary.

Because there is no way to stop the civil war, in order to protect the elf soul, the masked man can only do this, arranging the host of the elf soul in logistics to avoid being killed.

As for the situation on the side of the Magic Emperor, it is not worth watching, but after all, there are only a few hosts on the side of the Magic Emperor, which is not enough to affect the overall situation.

The war is ready. The Magic Emperor represents advanced productivity, and has the support of land and farmers. He is not afraid at all. He is aggressive and unstoppable.

On the contrary, the momentum of the masked man has been very low. They still can't figure out why they have to fight, why they want to start a war for food prices?

This reflects the weakness of urban residents. They are above farmers and below nobles. They are better than the upper class but worse than the lower class. They want to maintain the status quo. They are the group that least wants social unrest and dare not break bottles and jars.

The anti-war sentiment in the capital was very high, because in this war, the citizens did not get any benefits. It was simply unreasonable to risk their lives to join the war just to buy cheaper food. They were not without money, nor did they have to have cheap food.

But they could not stop the nobles from deciding things, but their negative attitude greatly affected the situation on the front line and affected morale.

The victory or defeat of this war had not yet begun.

"I have to admit that you are really eloquent. Just with your mouth, you have made such a huge change in this country." Denise had nothing to say to her husband.

Duran was modest: "It also requires a smart person like the Magic Emperor to understand, otherwise I will just waste my words."

Denise was amused.

Both sides were ready, and finally the first conflict occurred in the town outside the capital.

The war known as the "Plow War" officially began.

The scale of the first conflict was not large, and it was an encounter battle. The Magic Emperor's soldiers went shopping and happened to meet the Knights who came from the capital to strengthen the security. There were more than 20 people on both sides, and they started fighting in the town.

Then the Knights continued to send troops, and the reform team retreated.

The Magic Emperor found that they lacked support in the town and were not familiar with the terrain, so he started an intelligence war, sending a large number of people to sneak into the town to collect intelligence and spread new ideas.

The war is not only on the battlefield, but also behind enemy lines.

After the masked man found out, he immediately strengthened the management of the city and regarded the innovative ideas as prohibited ideas, not allowing them to spread, and whoever spread them would be arrested. Now the masked man can finally expand the scope of attack openly and retaliate against humans, anyway, how cruel it is.

The battles on the front line also occurred from time to time, but neither side had the idea of ​​an immediate decisive battle. The conflicts were all small-scale, and they were all waiting for the enemy's main force.

Various war magics showed their power, and the death toll soon reached three digits. Both sides were enduring, testing and bearing damage.

Now the initiative is still in the hands of the king's capital. After all, they occupied the city, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it was easy to rob resources. They had to take the initiative to find the location of the Magic Emperor's army.

The Magic Emperor has been hiding, waiting for opportunities in the untapped swamps and dense forests.

Finally, the first war broke out in winter. The Magic Emperor thought that we should fight now and stop when the spring plowing begins. Otherwise, it would be too long.

The Magic Emperor adopted the method of luring the enemy deep into the city, leading them out of the city and destroying them in one fell swoop. He successfully won the first battle and almost crippled the Knights.

The whole country was shocked. No one expected that the Magic Emperor and the peasants would defeat the elite Knights. They couldn't understand how this was done. The Knights clearly had the advantage, so why did they lose so miserably?

In fact, it was normal. The Magic Emperor understood the combat style of the Knights. After training, although the farmers' individual combat effectiveness was weak, they had enough courage in large numbers. Coupled with the tactics and familiar terrain, there was no possibility of losing.

Not annihilating the Knights was already a mistake. After all, it was the first large-scale group battle, and the Knights were not soft persimmons, so it was understandable. But the Magic Emperor's ambition has been exposed. He wants to concentrate his superior forces to annihilate the enemy, and has no intention of peace talks.

Because after Dulan's repeated teachings, the Magic Emperor wanted to change his life and create a new world, and he had to be separated from the old world. Therefore, if you want to fight, you must hurt the opponent, kill the opponent, and make the opponent convinced.

The masked man was very happy, because humans were killing each other, and the more they died, the better. The only problem was that the main force of the knights was damaged, and the king wanted the reserve team. This was something the masked man would never agree to, because the reserve team was all Although his fellow elves have not yet awakened, their lives are a hundred times more valuable than humans.
