Warhammer Throne

Chapter 668: , Imperial Ruschia Expeditionary Force

Above the vast ocean, the sea breeze is endless, and the blue waves are rippling.

The vast ocean water surging back and forth above the surface of the ocean, and dozens of imperial warships are heading for the new world, Ruscia, along the route above the vast ocean.

It is a mysterious and great place. Since five hundred years ago, adventurers from Estalia, the Chivalry army from Brittany, and explorers from Tyrell have all been to Ruth. Chia has made an amazing fortune.

There is gold everywhere, but also danger everywhere. This is what all the adventurers who went to Ruscia have come back to say. It is a country that can dig out a lot of gold, silver, and gems from any ruin, but the same, the aborigines there No outsiders are welcome. Their hearts are as savage as their behavior. After many adventurers have made a fortune, they will never return to that place no matter what the cost.

The first explorer who successfully explored Ruscia was named Marco Columbus, a mercenary captain of Tyrell. He entered Ruscia in a legendary expedition and succeeded in fighting with the Lizardmen. After making contact, the explorer was left alone at the time and almost swallowed the beast in his stomach, but the skink priest who came after hearing the news took him to the pyramid of the Lizardman Temple, where Marco Columbus saw him. When he arrived at a priest Silan, priest Silan greeted him and told him that the ancient sage had already predicted his arrival, and their meeting was destined.

Marco Columbus thus established a friendly relationship with the Lizardmen. He was given a set of Slan Magic Jewelry, a Slan Gourd and Twelve Boxes of Treasures. The mercenary leader made a fortune After witnessing a battle between the lizardmen and the dark elves, they returned to the old world and brought countless legends.

Relying on this wealth, Marco Columbus became one of Tyrell's most powerful mercenary warlords at the time, and he went on an expedition to Ruscia for the second time and fought side by side with the lizardmen against the invading Norsca tribe.

The success of Marco Columbus made the entire old world go crazy. The great nautical era began. Hundreds of fleets were formed and sent to Ruscia by those old world nobles who longed for gold and glory.

Then, except for the return of a few ships full of gold and silver, there was no news.

Therefore, after a long period of time, the empires and Brittany with the greatest external pressure have basically given up trying to develop the land of Ruscia. With less external pressure and always enjoying the peaceful atmosphere, Estalia and Tyrell have always been obsessed with Ruthcia’s wealth. Even if the fleet is always gone, the people in these two places continue to tirelessly. Send an expeditionary army to try to open up new territory in that magical country.

Furthermore, the expedition is not entirely without return.

Just a few years ago, an expeditionary force from Tyrell finally succeeded in establishing a frontline base on the Ruthcia Isthmus! The mercenaries not only successfully landed on the coast, but also got the amazing wealth of the Lizardmen. Ships of gold were transported back to their country by the mercenaries of Tyrell, the supreme glory and the dream of making a fortune. Soon there was a huge upsurge.

Power, fame, strength, the man with countless wealth of the entire Ruschia, Fukun, commander of the Ash Legion, his words about recruiting soldiers in the old world made the adventurers, mercenaries and explorers of the old world rush to rush. To Ruscia.

"Want to get wealth? Want to win glory?"

"If you want it, I'll give it all to you! It's at the end of that great route, go find it to your heart's content!"

Faugan’s success proves that Ruscia’s adventure is still full of opportunities. When he came to the old world to recruit troops, the Estalians and Tyrells joined the Ash Legion in large numbers and became recruits. Ready to go to Ruscia.

But the empires sneered at Fugen's solicitation.

Fukun? Where did this person come from?

Legion of Ashes? Never heard of this name!

In the eyes of the nobles of the empire, this so-called legion commander is a traitor, a traitor to humans. He actually mingled with the lizard people. This is an unforgivable sin. If caught by our demon hunters and the church, he must be tied to the fire. Burned to death on the pillar.

Hmm~ It is said that he and Ryan Makado are brothers?

Then open the net and ask his brother to pay the ransom.

In this way, the empire not only refused Fogen’s request for cooperation, but the Rick leader under Karl-Franz also secretly formed a brand new army, the Imperial Ruschia Expeditionary Army, which consisted of 8,000 men. Formed, divided into three waves one after another, ready to travel to the new world.

In the sea breeze and waves, the Imperial warship sailed at full speed in this way. The Imperial hunter-general Eric von Shangel stood proudly on the deck, looking at the ocean in the distance: "Soldiers, sailors, We have arrived at the Tarantula Sea, and in a week, we will reach Ruscia’s Tokan Temple, where the vanguard of the Expeditionary Army has established an outpost."

"Oh! That's great! Praise Karl Franz."

"Emperor Charlemagne is here, I am really tired of watching this kind of ocean."

"I can't wait to have a big fight."

"It is said that there are a lot of giant beasts in the forest. Their meat must be very delicious. We can eat roasted, stewed and fried! Look, I also brought a big iron pot this time!"

"Hahahaha~"

The imperial sailors and imperial soldiers on the deck were joking. They felt like they were traveling. They all had dreams of making a fortune. Everyone was talking and laughing. The Hunter General Eric was holding a bottle of Lang in one hand. Mulberry, holding a citrus in one hand.

It is the experience of the high elves to store some fruits that are not perishable like citrus to avoid sepsis during ocean voyages, and the empires did so.

"Well, guys, don’t let your guard down. Ruscia is not a tourist place." Eric reminded the soldiers a little bit not to be careless: "The aborigines there never welcome us, we don’t I know how the man named Fugen got in touch with the lizardmen, but we are glorious empires. We came here in the name of Emperor Karl-Franz. We will never compromise and surrender to the lizardmen, so , We are bound to go to war with the inhabitants of these jungles."

"Come on!" An empire captain was in high spirits: "Listen to me, brethren, what kind of trash fish and weak chickens are Fukun and his Ash Legion? They are just a group of conscripts from the southern country. It's nothing more than the mobs formed with some mercenary groups. They made a little gold by selling their lives to the lizardmen. How can our emperor team be comparable to those miscellaneous fish?"

"Yes, God knows how this Fugen got on the line with the lizardman." The battleship chief mate said casually.

"Hey, I have a rumor. It is said that this so-called Ash Legion is very handsome, very, very handsome." The Imperial Army said in a crude tone, "Maybe it's an **** seller?"

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha~" Hunter General Eric von Shangel and others laughed together, so unhappy.

The previous warnings of not being careless and careful have been left behind.

"Where is that Batonian?" Several people said and laughed for a while, and the General Hunter suddenly remembered something.

"He is resting in the cabin, he may still be praying." Speaking of this, the expressions on the faces of the empire became serious.

The Batonian in the cabin was unusual.

"That's it." The Hunter General Eric thought for a while, and said to the first mate: "If he has a need, try his best to meet his requirements. He belongs to the Duke of Lane... You all know that our empire and the The Knight Kingdom on the opposite side of the mountain has a relatively good relationship. If problems arise in the relationship between the two countries due to our reasons, you will all have to go to a military court one by one!"

"clear!"

The battleship continued to travel in the sea of ​​Tarantula Sea.

A week later.

"My knight, my strong knight."

"I have a sacred and great mission to entrust to you."

"For several years of expeditions, your soul and body, your bravery and wisdom have been tempered, you killed evil beasts, you promoted the spirit of chivalry, you challenged powerful and frightening enemies, or were on a magnificent battlefield. Show courage."

"Therefore, I decided to give you this sacred mission."

"Go to the new world, go to Ruscia, go there, and meet Ryan's brother Fukun, moonlight and clear spring will guide you along the way."

"When you need it, go to the place of pure water and ask for my existence."

The expedition knight knelt in the cabin, recalling the guidance of the fairy in the lake. He closed his eyes tightly, his golden medium and long hair fell from his cheeks, handsome and serious enough that there was no expression on his rigid face.

The armor on his body is already a bit torn, and the large two-handed wide-bladed sword made by a small craftsman during the expedition also has a lot of gaps. The robe on his body is full of torn marks, and even the helmet has a deep Deep paw prints.

Only the golden icon of the fairy in the lake is still as clean as new. The expedition knight carefully wiped the icon of the goddess, recalling the goddess' enlightenment in his mind.

"Boom boom boom~" Just as he closed his eyes and prayed, the cabin door rang, and the memory of the expedition knight was interrupted. He looked very unhappy: "What's the matter?"

"Sir, lunch is ready, and General Eric asked me to tell you that we will arrive at Tokan Temple this evening." The people outside the door obviously heard the voice of the expedition knight full of discomfort.

"...I see, you leave things at the door." The expedition knight's sea-blue eyes were full of discomfort, but he thought that he was on an imperial battleship, so he decided to put away his temper for the time being.

"Okay, thank you." The sailor at the door kindly put the plate on the ground and walked away quickly.

The expedition knight opened the door, finished his lunch, then returned to the original position and continued to pray.

A few hours later, the Imperial Expeditionary Army officially set foot on the land of Ruscia.

On the coast of Ruscia, an imperial advance team has already established a simple camp and port. They cut down hundreds of jungle wood to build a wooden fence, and then set up hundreds of tents. There are about two thousand people in the vanguard. They have already opened a road. Many patrols are patrolling with torches. Even if it is November, it is still hot and the smell is more than 20 degrees. When an imperial warship After entering the port and unloading the cargo, the oncoming hot and humid wind made the soldiers of the Empire feel uncomfortable. They were used to the dry and cold weather of the Empire's Black Forest, and then came to Ruscia, and their bodies were not comfortable.

The sailors and soldiers began to load and unload cargo from the battleship. The Imperial Expeditionary Army did not have particularly powerful elites. Its core was a pioneering army composed of Imperial Swordsmen + Imperial Spearmen + Imperial Archers + Imperial Crossbowmen. , The war machine only had mortars, in addition to some horses and two hundred muskets prepared for them by the nobles of Rick.

Even so, the hunter general Eric was still complacent, he strode off the battleship, and while there was still a faint light at dusk, he cast his gaze into the distance.

Just less than two kilometers away from the beach camp, the multi-layered tree canopy covers the sky, and even the mountains and plateaus are covered. From some perspectives, some trees are hundreds of feet high. They are older than the human race. . The ground of the jungle is also blocked by dense bushes, and there are almost no real roads except for the passages where animals often walk. Visibility here is limited, and the air is thick, often shrouded in mist.

"Hey, it's a great place to make a fortune." Eric smiled, a canyon with dense ferns? Huge towering trees and moss-covered flood zones?

Isn't this the hunting ground for these imperial hunters?

"How is the situation? How much do you know about the current situation?" Eric called the vanguard officer.

"The Tocan Temple is about 60 kilometers away from here." The Pioneer Palace saluted: "We have sent several waves of scouts. I found a lot in the temple...General, you should really take a look at this!"

Several imperial soldiers came to the General Hunter with a big cloth bag, which was filled with gold, silver, and dazzling emeralds!

"Great, your majesty the emperor will love these!" The Hunter general laughed, and he motioned to his men to put these things away first and transport them back to the empire on the next day: "Very good, soldiers, we will continue to move forward until this point. All the wealth of this land belongs to us, for the empire, for Charlemagne, and for Karl Franz!"

"Yes!" The emperor was filled with a desire for wealth and glory: "For the empire!"

The expeditionary knights were the last to disembark. His iron boots fell on the land of Ruscia. At this time, he noticed that the Imperial Hunter General Eric was arguing with a group of soldiers in purple armor. What: "What's the matter?"

The sailor on the side explained: "They are from the Ash Legion, a group of human traitors!"

The expedition knight ignored the sailor, he strode closer.

"This is a warning from the Ash Legion. People of the Empire, don't go deep into the jungle." Several Ash Legion soldiers, wearing sophisticated breastplates, triangular helmets, and holding swords and shields, were talking to the Empire under the leadership of an officer. The general argued: "Don’t go to the west. The west is dangerous. There are countless green tribes. Don’t go to the east. The east is dangerous. There are as many vampire pirates and undead armies like crucian carp across the river. Don’t go to the south. Danger!"

"Haha, where else can we go?" Eric roared dissatisfiedly: "Go north? Return the same way? Enough, you human traitors, for the sake of all human compatriots, give it now. I'll get out, right away!"

"No, don't do that, we are giving you advice!" The officer of the Ash Legion trembled with anger: "Remember, don't take the wealth that does not belong to you, otherwise disaster will come!"

Before he could finish his words, General Hunter was impatient. He clapped his hands. Dozens of short bows, a dozen crossbows and a few muskets were aimed at the soldiers of the Ash Legion: "Enough, we don’t want to listen. You are spreading rumors here, get out, or you don’t even want to kill you!"

The soldiers and officers of the Ashes Legion looked ugly, and they had to "leave in grief". These people still had sneers and sarcasm on their faces. The Imperial soldiers thought that this might be their last stubbornness.

"Hmph, if you have made a fortune, you are not allowed to make others rich. Ruscia’s wealth belongs to everyone!" Eric sneered: "After two days of rest, we immediately went south to the Tocan Temple, gold, Silver and gems are ours!"

"Oh oh oh oh!"

The expeditionary knight was still expressionless. He took out a few gold coins from his body, bought a lot of food and supplies from the Imperial Expeditionary Army, followed the direction of the soldiers of the Ash Legion, and entered the jungle of Ruscia together. middle.

A few hours later, Ruscia was deep in the dark and deep jungle.

"Lord, a new human army has arrived at Ruscia."

"Yes, the reinforcements of the Son of Old Sage?"

"No, they seem to come from another human kingdom, claiming to be an empire, and don't listen to the advice of the Son of the Old Sage at all..."

"Since it is not the reinforcements of the Son of the Old Sage, it doesn't matter what it is. These stupid blood species will only hinder the progress of the big plan and must be eliminated."

"Brother Rock, go and deal with this group of hot-blooded species."

"Yes!"
