Vol 3 Chapter 40: Ice-breaking harbour

On the west coast of the mainland, the residents' residences are basically fishing ports and fishing villages. There are only a few large-scale towns. The ice-breaking port is the largest city on the west coast. It is located 10 miles north of the Sanggan River and connects the main highways of the mainland. .
The Sanggan River is the largest-flowing river on the mainland of Eminol. It originates from the northern foot of the Shengxue Mountain and flows all the way to the north. After collecting a large amount of rainwater in the subtropical rainforest in the boundary forest, it takes the west to enter the Messian Snow Mountain. In the basin, all glacial rivers that originated in the snowy mountains of Mess have successively pooled into the Sanggan River, and finally rushed into the sea.
Compared with other major rivers on the mainland, the Sanggan River has the lowest temperature and the most complicated terrain. Therefore, the Sanggan River carries a lot of minerals and meets the seawater at the estuary, attracting a large number of red salmon foraging here, and the delicious taste of salmon roe makes it unforgettable for all those who have tasted it.
Every autumn, during the salmon season, the magnificent sight of the thousands of sails often appears outside the Sanggan River. The caught female salmon was immediately cut through the belly, and the red yellow bean-sized salmon roe suddenly overflowed.
Floating ice floats all year round outside the ice-breaking port-from the ice continent and the ice blocks broken by the Messian snow mountain, fishermen use these ice cubes to keep the fish roe fresh and transport them to the ice-breaking port in the shortest time. Merchants in various mainland countries purchased and shipped to various parts of the mainland. Merchants on the mainland called this city and Wulu Village in the hinterland of the mainland as the two cornucopias. Another name for the broken ice city is the red fish roe cornucopia.
This harbour city has never been handed over to any mercenary regiment in the form of empire in the history of the empire-there are also many cities in the empire that have a tax revenue of more than 300,000 per year.
"World Famous City" ※※※
On the 12th of March of the Magical Calendar for 5 years, the imperial mercenary cadres' formal training came to an end.
In the previous month, according to intelligence obtained from various sources, the three-party seven-nation showdown on the Eminor continent has entered a stable period. Although both the Holy Desert Empire has entered a state of war, the two invading enemy forces seem to be turning. Entering the defensive state, no attacks have been carried out in more than a month.
The Imperial Military Department, represented by Duke Chi, submitted a report in the House of Representatives: The military representatives believe that the enemies of the two forces are from tropical regions, and the areas where they have launched attacks on the mainland are also in tropical regions. Northward is the temperate zone covered by snow and ice. Enemies from different continents seem to be waiting, waiting for the spring of ice and snow. If there is no accident, after February of spring, the enemies of two different continents will launch new attacks from two directions to two or three countries on the continent. .
In this report, the following points are also emphasized: 1. In the previous report, it was believed that the two enemy forces were fighting across the continent, and the long supply line would inevitably lead to a decline in the other party ’s combat power. In order to obtain greater supplies, the enemy will resort to war to fight and plunder on the Eminor continent. However, from the actual situation, whether it is the enemy of the mainland of Fanos or the more evil enemy of Alcatraz Island, the residents of the mainland of Eminor are quite friendly. If the local nobles are willing to cooperate, they will protect the interests of the nobles and use the nobles. Maintain the local order; if the local nobility does not cooperate or has simply fled, then distribute the nobility's property to other local residents with prestige to form a new noble interest. This point, from the fact that the Continent of Mankind has been established in Fanos, we can see the effect of its policies.
2. The most fundamental purpose of Fanos mainland's westward advance is to shift the focus of the front. No matter how smooth the attack on the eastern legion of the Farnos is, even if they occupy all the territory of the mercenary empire, their situation will not be too good. The mercenary empire is surrounded by the sea on the southeast side, and on the north side is the magic forest under the guard of the elven king. The power of humans and even the dragons will be greatly reduced in the magic forest. Before this, no army had been peaceful or other. Way through the magical forest; to the west is the Holy Snow Mountain, which is thousands of meters high, and not to mention whether the Holy Snow Mountain can be climbed. More than 90% of the soldiers in Fanos are from the tropics. Snow Mountain is their natural nemesis. There is only one continental road between the Enchanted Forest and the Jielin Forest, and this part is an enclave of the Amy Empire in the Holy Church-Tongyun Pass. It is defended by one of the four elites of the Empire, and has no record of being captured in history.
Therefore, the Fanos Army will inevitably open up new battlefields. The east of the mainland is the desert empire and the Holy See. The desert empire is definitely not the other ’s primary target of attack. The Holy See was most likely to be attacked. The biggest possibility is that the enemy wants to destroy the living power of the mainland countries. In this respect, the power of the Holy See is really not worth mentioning.
3. The enemies of Alcatraz Island, led by a teenager reported to be the guardian of God, defeated the organized defense of the Hughes Empire in just a few months and captured the capital. The long coastline to the south provides a steady stream The supply, embraces the natural danger of the Lion River, and occupies a large area of ​​land on the north bank of the Lion River, strategically in an extremely advantageous position.
4. From the previous perspective, the war powers of the Eminor continents are as follows: Amy Empire: Desert Empire: Mercenary Empire: Holy Vatican: Remains of the Hughes Empire: Fanos Continent: Alcatraz Island = 10: 5 3: 1: 1: 4: 5 The Redstone Emperor basically agreed with the report submitted by the military department, and instructed the military department to quickly implement the large-scale assembly of the empire's local army. Local defense and security were basically handed over to the B-level or above servants The Corps is responsible, and the swordsmen battalions around the country assist the mercenary regiment.
The small mercenary regiment is no exception.
After two months of renovation, the small mercenary regiment has become one of the largest mercenary regiments on the mainland. Long and Moye recruited a total of 900 new ice and snow youths in the ice and snow continent. A considerable part of the newly joined Ice Boys are non-Hami residents from the Hami Kingdom. The Hami Kingdom million gold coins created several towns near the mainland highway. After a large number of immigrants entered, they learned the real source of town construction funds. I am very grateful to the two founders of the small mercenary group Amy and Daqingshan. Now the population of several small towns has reached 80,000. When Long went here to recruit troops, I heard that it was an expansion of the small mercenary group. All residents hope to join the mercenary regiment, and progress is going quite smoothly.
At the small mercenary regiment, there are many people signing up every day. There are two main types of people who want to join. The first is a small mercenary group in the empire or a low-level mercenary. Mercenary is a high-risk and high-reward occupation. Joining a large-scale mercenary group is a new entry for mercenaries to save money. The best way, unfortunately most of the mercenary regiments above the B level have their own juvenile mercenary training bases, and rarely call out from the outside. The opportunity for the small mercenary regiment to expand on a large scale is rare; followed by the nobles, Even some big noble family heads came to sign up with their children. The nobles, except the eldest son, could not inherit the family business. The 100% imperial knighthood of the small mercenaries gave these nobles new hope. Chi Aotian and Barbas, who are in charge of the daily affairs of the mercenary group, selected 200 new mercenaries from thousands of applicants according to strict requirements, and about 40% of them were noble children. These noble children were trained according to the standards of knights since childhood. Most of them already have the official knighthood title of the empire. After consultation between Chi Aotian and Amy, the small mercenary group established the second knightly army after the mad eagle swordsman battalion. .
On March 15th, the large units of the small mercenary regiment set off from the Imperial Capital to the ice-breaking port.
The first departure was two vulture sword warriors, the sky was just dawning, and 10 huge vultures spread their wings into the gray blue sky. According to the mercenary group, they went to the town 60 miles away to arrange the accommodation for the day- ―The board and lodging of 1,500 people and mounts is a big problem. If you do n’t make good arrangements, you may sleep on the streets.
At 8:00 in the morning, the first departure was the Barrage Swordsman Battalion led by Barbas, followed by the Great Swordsman Battalion, and the young men who had just been incorporated into the small mercenary corps had not yet had time to divide their belongings. The latter is the magic swordsman battalion, wild eagle swordsman battalion, and bow and arrow battalion led by Great Green Mountain, Amy, and Horns. Chi Aotian led the knight battalion to advance slowly about 500 meters behind the brigade. In the sky, more than 200 young and adult griffins spread their wings, and four of them are watching the surroundings from four directions of front, back, left, and right. Every hour, the vulture swordsmen in the sky come down to change other brothers. .
The residents of Scambre often boast of being well-informed. In the past hundreds of years, there has been a large military parade every 5 years, and every 20 years when the major military forces of the empire still need to go to Scambre Relevant formalities, it is common for soldiers to come and go. The situation displayed by the small mercenary group on this day has become the topic of the military and civilians of the imperial capital in the next month: no one army has so many establishments. The sky is a large raptor that covers the sky, and a giant emerald green. The dragon soared from the sky, and from time to time, the knights of the vultures took off and landed in the queue; several different arms on the ground passed one after another, and the cavalry squadrons were patrolling on the periphery.
The first time I saw the full strength of the small mercenary regiment, Amy was still taken aback: "Daqingshan, do you remember the scene when we created the mercenary regiment? Hey, how fun was that time. At that time, every day We earn money as long as we earn 5 silver coins. Now, so many people eat every day is a problem. "
In a word, the Daqing Mountain was also brought back 5 years ago. The dark-haired teenager looked up at the proud figure of Luer in the sky and smiled: "Well, Luer was so big at that time." He gestured as he said. Looks less than one meter high.
Lin Yushang and Sha Ruo are not far behind. Lin Yushang has not followed this time. The girl is now dying of Amy. There is only one reason to join the small mercenary group. Here you can find a very good partner who is like her own. Listening to the conversation between Amy and Daqingshan, Lin Yushang said: "If it were not me and Sha Ruo hired you, can the small mercenary regiment have such a large scale now?"
Amy glanced at Ying: "Oh, if I remember correctly, you seemed to owe us commissions."
"Oh-without us hiring, you can make 1 million gold coins in one fell swoop? And, we still pressed you to win, and later, we did not see the winning money. Right, sand If. The head leader is really ungrateful. "The magician's memory is very good, Lin Yushang is one of the best.
Perhaps the speaker is really unintentional, and the listener is really intentional. An ungratefulness made Amy not knowing what to say, her face flushed a little, although she never did anything to do bad things, but things between men and women were not clear. Lin Yushang also found himself ill, and pulled Sha Ruo away. Ying Ying's face showed a bad smile, and her curvy smile showed her good looking eyes.
Knowing that Ying deliberately teased herself, but now, if the explanation is more and more confused, Amy does not know how to be good. When the two huge vultures in the sky set off the wind and the waves fell. A boy and a girl jumped off the Griffon at the same time. There are not many girls in the small mercenary regiment, which accounts for about 20% of the total. The girls who can stay are often super strong. The girl rushes to Amy like the wind: "The leader, there are soldiers on the left wing of the team. In the ambush, the number did not exceed 200. "The boy young mercenary then gave a gift:" Reported that there was also an ambush found on the right side of the line. The number did not exceed 300. "
Amy, Daqingshan, and Horns glanced at each other, and Horns waved to the two commanders to take off again to continue vigilance. The vulture swordsman should have sent someone to notify Barbath in the front and Chiao in the back. day. The team in front quickly stopped, and Chi Aotian came from behind on a black horse.
ambush? What a joke? The small mercenary group departed from the Imperial Capital for less than half a day, and has been traveling on the mainland highway. Most of the western side of the Imperial Capital is a plain area. The remaining veins of the Messian Snow Mountain are still unexpected 200 miles to the north. There are only a few occasions here Small hills no more than 30 meters high. Where to ambush the mercenary group? It is only 30 miles from the empire. If you can attack the small mercenary group here, you can go to the imperial capital to attack the royal family.
The imperial capital is within 100 miles of the absolute security zone, and no thieves or gangsters will attack the caravan here.
In history, there were several thieves gangs boldly Baotian intercepted the travel brigade nearby. As a result, they suddenly stabbed the horse honeycomb, the Colorful Dragon Knights, the Guards, the Border Guards, the Mercenary Guild, the Thieves Guild, the Magic Guild, the Imperial Knight School, Dozens of guild military organizations stationed in the Imperial Capital, such as the Imperial School of Magic, suddenly felt no face ~ EbookFREE.me ~ As many as 7 bounty arrest orders were issued on the same day, and the prize amount exceeded the total value of the robbed goods by more than 20 Times, the mercenary regiments across the continent are rushing to the imperial capital. In those days, soldiers, mercenaries, students in knight schools, residents and farmers near the imperial capital with simple weapons can be seen at any time within 100 miles of the imperial capital. There are even a lot of 5-6 year olds who hold snots while holding bricks.
The results of the thieves were ultimately terrible. In front of the huge amount of war and reward, they were smashed and cut by mercenaries and soldiers (and there are really a few children over 8 years old), and finally they were divided into guilds, Regiment.
Since then, 100 miles around the imperial capital has been classified as an absolute safe zone for business travelers.
A few young people are all confused, who is it? What do you mean? A team of about 400 people came to attack the 1,500-person mercenary regiment, which is simply exaggerated.
After the fierce fighting in Xilin Island, the main cadres of the small mercenary regiment became more cautious. Amy let Horns stay at the end of the team to command, Chi Aotian returned to the knight camp to prepare for the war, Amy and Daqingshan walked quickly to the Swordsman Battalion.
Various whistle sounded wildly in the camp of the vulture swordsmen. The vulture swordsmen were summoning their mounts. The vultures soaring in the sky all closed their wings and fell down. . The bow and arrow battalion and the magic swordsman battalion quickly followed, and under the direction of the air alert swordsman, the bow and arrow quickly pointed to the jungle on the hills on both sides of the mainland highway. The magic swordsmen had begun to release defensive magic in a small voice, and various magic shields were issued. Dazzling light. Then, Chi Aotian called out to leave the dragon and took off.
"No matter who you are? Whatever your purpose? Come out now, or you will be at your own risk." Facing the dense forest on the hills on both sides, Amy quietly released a loud magic and said calmly.
