Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord
Chapter 496 Return with a Full Load
Duke Carlo's cavalry harassment tactics were not actually detected by the Northern Army's airships... The three airships they carried in this military operation had already exhausted their liquid magic when they attacked Bluethorn City. Without receiving any supplies, it was impossible for them to take off again. They were directly dismantled and transported back to the country by the engineers.
The two Blood Knight teams were discovered by the Mage Warband from Daeus, which was the reinforcement promised by the Lord of the City to Pierce. However, they never thought that the reinforcements were actually the battle mages of the Federation.
They used a cluster spell called "earth listening" to accurately detect the activities of the two Blood Knight teams. Pierce did not hesitate to send two special operations teams composed of Blood Knights, carrying heavy weapons to defeat them one by one.
This group of earth elemental spellcasters are best at group casting by connecting magic circles. Although they are all low-level spellcasters with extremely weak individual combat capabilities, with the assistance and protection of the Northern Army, they can unscrupulously use the terrain advantage to launch magic raids on the enemy.
"It is a great honor to fight side by side with you!" The leader of the magician team was a lady who was almost the same age as the astrologer lady, with long flowing dark red hair and a very soft and beautiful appearance. When she took the initiative to shake hands with Vaughn, the honest half-orc blushed with embarrassment.
"Uh... uh, it's our honor to fight with the spellcasters of the Federation." Vaughn scratched his head and added in a low voice, "I never thought that it would be the spellcasters who came to reinforce us."
The female mage chuckled and tilted her head in confusion: "As a blood warrior, if you are not from the church... your blood descendant should also be a spellcaster. Have you never acted with combat mages?"
Vaughn shook his head and explained: "In the North... spellcasters rarely participate in combat missions. They prefer to conduct magic research in the laboratory or create some novel magic creations with technicians in the workshop."
"Oh? The rumor is true? Under the command of the wizard lord in the North, all spellcasters like to live and work with mortals, even the magic experiments and research content are like this..."
Vaughn nodded honestly. These deeds are not a secret in Spark City. Since the rumors can get into the other party's ears, it means that at least in the spellcasting world, it is already known to everyone.
The female mage chatted with him for a while, and after the soldiers had cleaned up the battlefield, she saluted and said, "Our mission has been completed. We will not return to the main force with you. Goodbye!"
Vaughn's heart was empty, and he hurriedly said, "Goodbye... Madam, I... My name is Vaughn, may I ask you..."
The earthen mages entered the dense forest one after another. The female mage who fell behind turned around and smiled, "You can call me Rock."
...
Harvey sat in the office of the castle, reading the action report uploaded by the magic brain instrument in detail.
This crusade against the border lords of neighboring countries can be said to be full of twists and turns. Before departure, the richness of the spoils was misjudged, resulting in a serious lack of logistics carrying capacity planned in advance.
After accidentally receiving a large number of slaves from the mine, they barely managed to bring all the baggage and supplies back with human-assisted transportation... The disadvantage is that the originally fast marching speed was completely slowed down. If Harvey had not asked for help from the Federation's Mage Warband stationed in Daes in advance, they would probably have been unable to successfully cross the border area for a long time due to the frequent harassment of the Blood Knights sent by Duke Carlo.
Once the ammunition and supplies are exhausted and there is no timely reinforcement, the first to flee will definitely be these already uneasy slaves. The riots of the crowd will inevitably trigger a series of adverse chain reactions. Duke Carlo, who is eyeing them, will definitely not miss the opportunity, and may cause the undefeated Northern Army to fall.
This real overseas military operation also gave Harvey a real reminder-in areas where logistical supplies cannot be completely covered, a large number of troops must not be rashly deployed for military operations. In the future, we must adhere to the firm principle of advancing the army to wherever the supply line extends!
Of course, this "going abroad to collect debts" without any danger did alleviate the current urgent shortage of food and other materials - the money and silver ingots collected from Duke Carlo alone were enough to pay Harvey's bills for buying wheat from several major chambers of commerce in the southern border at high prices.
The confiscated food was originally looted from the Black Mountain Port and Silver Pine City area, so it was naturally re-arranged to transport it back along the original route, and the newly established local municipal agency properly distributed it to the local suffering people to avoid them from suffering from hunger in the upcoming harvest season.
In addition, there is a brand new "sweet trouble" in front of Harvey - a total of about 3,000 mine slaves, who are completely outside the action plan. At this moment, they are boarding the ship from Silver Pine City and heading north with a part of the northern army. They will arrive in Spark City within half a month at most.
By then, this 3,000-strong slave team will be joined by several refugees from the wilderness led by Duncan. The largest population growth in the history of Spark City will occur just before and after the Harvest Festival.
Harvey felt his temples throbbing and his head dizzy just thinking about it.
The various aspects involved are too complicated. The already overloaded city hall may suffer a destructive impact. Food supply, housing, free medical care, public security... all will face great challenges.
Thinking of this, Harvey couldn't help but have an idea flash through his mind. He stood up and walked to the magic brain instrument to log in to his agent account, and then pulled "Heart of the Forest" and "Frost Giant", two initial members from the elves and dwarves, to communicate alone in the private chat room.
[Kel'Thuzad: Spark City is about to work with the Federation to establish a "New Federation" in the North. I'm sure you two have heard about it? ]
[Heart of the Forest: Although they didn't talk about this publicly at the exchange meeting, everyone in the forum has known about it for a long time. ]
[Frost Giant: Yes, I knew it! Mr. Kel'Thuzad will not forget us independent members who firmly stand on the side of the forum! Humph, those guys who are keen on grouping and exclusion are really despicable! ]
[Kel'Thuzad: After all, the "New Union" of the North is built on the basis of the forum, and what is shared is also the secret knowledge from the forum. After the Union has tasted the benefits of things like the "Lance of Annihilation", it is naturally subconsciously unwilling to share it with members of other factions and groups. This is normal. ]
No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!
[Kel'Thuzad: But if I can guarantee that the two young elves and dwarves who were sent to Spark City can take up some important positions and posts in the new union in the north in the future, what do you think? ]
[Heart of the Forest/Frost Giant: Mr. Kel'Thuzad, what is the price? ]
[Kel'Thuzad: I want to borrow the inherited secret treasures of the two races, the golden tree heart and the earth crystal core, and use the method recorded in the ancient books of the Union to give birth to a life stone that can make thousands of plants grow rapidly! 】
The codes of the Heart of the Forest and the Frost Giant suddenly flashed fiercely, indicating that they seemed to be communicating quickly and individually. After a long time, they sent a clear message at the same time.
[Deal! ]
