    Chapter 70: In the blink of an eye, all the troops were wiped out (Part 1) In the southern part of the Tellilia Plains south of the Arnus Hills, an exhausted army was setting up camp under the sunset.  This is a 30,000-strong Rangers led by King Duran of the Kingdom of Elbe, with the Elbe army as the main body. They are currently being ordered to attack the Arnus Hills from the south, cooperating with the main force of Emperor Sochar coming over the mountains from the northeast.  The army formed a pincer attack on the outsiders.  At first glance, this seems to be a combat strategy that fully complies with the principles of the art of war, but in actual implementation, it is full of difficulties.  Just looking at the map, the northern borderline of the Kingdom of Elbe seems to be close to the location of the Arnus Hill.  But in fact, there is still a distance of about 600 to 700 kilometers between the truly densely populated hinterland of the Kingdom of Elbe and the Arnus Hills.  If you want to send troops from the capital of the Kingdom of Elbe to the north of the Arnus Hills, you must first cross a steep and rugged mountain range, pass through the Schulz Forest where the dark elves live, and then cross the uninhabited plains of Tellilia.  These are inaccessible and desolate places, and there are no rivers or waterways for boats. Due to the lack of decent roads, it is also difficult for heavy vehicles to travel here. There are not even many water sources. Even in the forest, cleanliness cannot be found everywhere.  Water source.  The Tellilia Plains is a semi-desert area similar to the Mongolian Gobi, with rugged boulders scattered everywhere, similar to a strange rocky desert that has slightly "returned to green".  Whether it is the Empire or the Kingdom of Elbe, there are no decent villages or towns in this land of more than 100,000 square kilometers, only a few border posts, and almost no supplies along the way.  Therefore, although King Duran had considered the supply difficulties and only brought 30,000 troops northward, due to the extremely harsh natural conditions, he still suffered a lot along the way. First of all, in Schulz Forest, the army was actually attacked by Yanlong.  Fortunately, it was only a young dragon as big as an ox or a horse instead of a towering adult flame dragon. He finally managed to escape after hundreds of casualties and the loss of two transport convoys.  Immediately afterwards, there was no water supply in the Tellilia Plains, and some people even died of thirst. Fortunately, an experienced guide found a pond, so the entire army was not wiped out halfway.  Even so, tortured by hunger, thirst and exhaustion, this army was already haggard, and its morale and physical strength were on the verge of collapse.  As an experienced battlefield veteran, King Duran had no choice but to order the entire army to stop advancing and camp on the spot to rest for a few days.  In fact, although the aliens who came through the "gate" on the top of Arnus Hill were theoretically neighbors to King Duran, due to the miserable transportation and communication conditions in ancient times, the Kingdom of Elbe also  Without a specialized intelligence agency, coupled with the interference of war and turmoil, Dulan did not collect any accurate and reliable information about these visitors from another world. He only vaguely knew that they seemed to be in large numbers and could make exquisite utensils and accessories.  , and once took advantage of the civil strife in the empire to seize the city of Italica and kidnapped an imperial princess But this does not show how strong the military strength of the outsiders is, because during the imperial civil war, almost every city in the continent  The ambitious princes cut a lot of flesh from the empire.  Even the barbarians and orcs in the high mountains can take advantage of the gaps in the transfer of the imperial border guards to break into the hinterland of the empire and plunder.  Even Duran himself was no exception. The reason why he was willing to send troops to participate in the emperor's expedition at his own expense was entirely because Emperor Sochar agreed to grant him a large area of ??land south of the Romanian Mountains, as well as some islands that had been ceded before.  , allowing the Kingdom of Elbe to basically restore its territory to its heyday.  As for those absurd and exaggerated rumors like "people from other worlds have huge floating battleships that can fly across the entire continent in a few days" and "people from other worlds built a city more magnificent than the imperial capital in just a few days"  , His Majesty Duran naturally doesn't believe it. If the aliens from behind the "door" really possess such terrifying force, then they should have been sweeping across all directions and killing people. How could they still be in Arnu?  Why do you want a desolate place like this in the mountains, and are you satisfied with just a sneak attack on the city of Italica?  In short, according to his experience, his position should be relatively safe now: it is still more than a hundred kilometers away from the Arnus Hills, and it is in an inaccessible and barren wasteland. No spies were found along the way.  The army has probably not been discovered by the aliens yet Besides, even if the aliens really noticed his whereabouts and mobilized an army to fight from the north, then after crossing the desolate and empty plains of Tellilia, the aliens would  The Jie people's army should also be exhausted.  By staying in the camp and having water, he took advantage of being able to wait for work.  Regrettably, he didn¡¯t know that his whereabouts had already been exposed. As long as he was photographed by the spy satellite above his head, he could see everything in detail.  What¡¯s even more regrettable is that due to the huge difference in weapons and equipment, people from other worlds want to eliminate?'s army doesn't need to travel long distances at all!  While King Duran was sleeping soundly in his tent after his tired horse, several long-range drones had quietly flown over his military camp ¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù  ¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù¡ù When the first batch of irresistible flames of death just appeared at the end of the night sky in the far north, the sentries of the Kingdom of Elbe thought they were meteors.  , but the next moment, they turned into bright fires falling from the sky, bursting out with a deafening roar.  "Boom!!!" Accompanied by a loud noise that shook the sky, for a moment, thunder thundered, the earth trembled, fire flashed everywhere on the ground around the military camp, and screams were heard all over the sky!  The sleeping soldiers in the camp were already roasted into charcoal by the hot flames before they could figure out what was going on Fortunately, despite the laser guidance of the drone, due to some mistakes, Duran  The king was not blown away by the rocket in the first place. Instead, he had time to get out of bed in his clothes in the light of the fire, and was carried out of the tent by a group of loyal guards.  Despite this, the ignorant His Majesty Duran had only just been carried out by the guards for a few steps when he felt a hot and turbulent wave of air coming from behind, pushing him and the guards protecting him forward.  He fell on the muddy ground, and there were several bloody marks on his thighs and arms from the sharp rocks But his keen intuition honed over many years on the battlefield prevented him from groaning while holding the bleeding wounds, nor did he look back.  , but quickly climbed up, staggered away into the shadow of a boulder, and then rolled over into a cave that was suspected to have been a beast's den At the same time, more rockets continued to fire in the Kingdom of Elbe  The military camp fell, and the blazing shock wave swept across the ground like a devastation, flattening fences and tents, leaving only burning wreckage and charred and cooked corpses, as well as several "Burning Man" and "Burning Man" running around with their bodies on fire.  "Fire Horse" The surviving soldiers' souls were crushed by fear and were no longer restrained by the officers. They just held their heads and howled while running away in all directions.  However, even if they ran out of the camp, they might not be able to escape.  Because the rockets from hundreds of kilometers away are still falling, and the hot shock waves that can crush human bones and internal organs are still raging behind them Scorched earth, gravel, ashes and minced meat are all in the explosion.  The fire splashed everywhere, and then fell like heavy rain, forming a soul-stirring picture of purgatory.  The enemy's position is still hundreds of kilometers away, and the 30,000-strong army has been destroyed in the blood and fire
