Warhammer Throne

ps: If you have something to go out today, I will update it sooner.

Many people have an inherent impression of the badlands, that is, the composition of the badlands is green skin + a small number of dwarves. Knowledgeable people also know that there are occasional tomb kings and undeads here, but for the badlands, the one has appeared. Little is known about the great empires I have ever lived.

This matter should start with Nagash, the lord of the dead. As early as a thousand years before Charlemagne rose in the old world, Nagash led his army of undead and the last tomb king Arcadiza In the final battle, Nagash was lost to escape, but the Necromancer quickly used the plague to finally wipe out all the living people of the Nicohara civilization, and finally captured Akadiza alive. Nagash did not kill or Transform Arcadiza, but want him to witness the destruction of the entire human world with his own eyes.

Nagash planned to perform a huge awakening ceremony. It wanted to awaken all the dead in the entire mortal world and become the king of the dead. After learning the news, the Skaven decided to stop Nagash from destroying himself. Gash, the Rats rescued Arkadiza and gave him a dimensional stone dagger. Arkadiza exhausted his last strength and gave Nagash a backstab. Nagash was cut into pieces. , And then Arcadiza took off the crown of witchcraft, fled to the badlands, and died of exhaustion.

By the way, although the Skavens released and helped Arkadiza for their own sake, they did save the world to some extent.

So how did the Stranger Undead Empire come from?

Almost 1200 years before the establishment of the empire by Charlemagne, and more than 3,000 years ago, a human shaman named Kanton, the chief of an ancient human primitive tribe, was found in the center of the badlands and near the blind river. The corpse of Arkadiza and the witchcraft crown in his hand, the young shaman was immediately fascinated by the crown and put it on his head, so Nagash’s thoughts eroded and controlled his soul, right in Ah At the location of Kadiza’s corpse, Canton established a city and named it Murkain. Under the power of the witchcraft crown, almost all of the tribe’s shamans became necromancers, and this primitive tribe quickly changed Got very strong and began to expand and conquer other tribes.

After more than a hundred years, the city under the Kandon rule gradually became a powerful city-state empire after years of development.

The head of the Stranger family, one of the five vampire families, was attracted by the power of the crown of witchcraft. This powerful blood ancestor killed Canton and led a group of vampires and necromancers to seize the rule of Murkain. Quan, established the famous Struggle Undead Empire, and these people are called Stregni people.

In all fairness, it was an extremely glorious and prosperous empire. Wu Suoran was a literary and martial artist, and his political achievements were impressive. The blood ancestor of the Stranger family was not only superb in his martial arts and proficient in undead magic, but also had excellent experience in governing the country. Suo Ran promoted the power of the blood nobles and the blood rituals so that the commoners would worship the midnight nobles headed by Usoran as gods. All the Strignanes would accept the "blood ritual" and become the blood nobles as their own. The highest reward, the empire is prosperous, and the people surrender to the rule of Usoran, and are proud of their identity as the Strigani.

In its heyday, the Strygge Undead Empire bordered the frontier princes in the north, the Hell Swamp in the south, the Roof of the World in the east, and the Blackwater Bay in the west. It was extremely strong, and Ursoran and his Stranger family ruled the entire badlands. For hundreds of years.

In addition to Wenzhi martial arts, this blood ancestor is also proficient in diplomacy and tactics. After investigating, Ursoran chose to ally with the dwarven kingdoms of the Roof Mountains of the world, because the dwarves keep their promises and are not affected by undead magic. For the ever-increasing number of midnight nobles, Ursoran ordered the prohibition of vampires from attacking their own people. Instead, they chose to obtain blood and food from captives, slaves and criminals. Therefore, the Strignanes never felt that the midnight nobles were very Horrible, on the contrary, they are always willing to accept the rule of Usoran, and the midnight nobles and necromancers have always been light-hearted.

"In this way, the entire Stregg Undead Empire has formed a very stable ruling structure." Baylor took a sip of Dwarf Beer: "And according to the book of hatred, this guy Ursoran is still creditable."

After listening to Bellegar’s story, Ryan was okay. Carade, Federmond, Juan Carlos, and the sun-watcher were all ashamed. Many knights and nobles couldn’t help asking themselves, this group of undead. The nobles actually do better than us?

What's the reason?

Are the undead the race destined to rule the world?

"Then why, this undead empire finally perished?" Kalad asked with interest: "According to your description, King Belega, it is so powerful and popular..."

"Because of blood." Ryan frowned, and the Knight King said lightly: "Vampires need to drink blood after all, but they can't get blood from the residents of the Undead Empire. Then they must continue to launch wars and expansions to satisfy Yue. The hunger of midnight nobles has come more and more, and there is a limit to the expansion and conquest of an empire after all."

"Brother Ryan is right." Bellegar nodded repeatedly, and the king of Bafeng Mountain slowly said the following things: "Because he needs blood and cannot get it from the people, Ursoran and the midnight nobles under his leadership had to keep it. Expansion and conquest, the territory of the empire is getting bigger and bigger, and the frontier line is getting longer and longer, which makes the army of the entire Stranger Undead Empire is severely dispersed. As time goes by, it becomes more and more difficult to expand and conquer. , The green-skinned tribes and some human tribes around the long frontier continued to fight against the Stranger Empire. The army of the entire empire was exhausted and the number gradually decreased."

"When Usoran led the army to the current position of the prince of the border, and fought against the army led by many human wizards, disaster struck, and a green-skinned warlord named Dok-Red-Eyed launched a very huge giant waaagh! The Greenskin Frenzy soon defeated the scarce border guards and invaded the core area of ​​the Stregg Empire, and firmly surrounded the capital, Murkain."

"When the news of this attack reached Usoran, who was leading his army to fight in the north, he immediately transferred his army to defend the capital. After continuous combat and long-distance march, the Striger army was exhausted, but Green Leather didn't intend to give the Strangers any chance. The two sides engaged in an epic battle in the Dust Plain for several days."

"In the end, Ursoran and his army were unable to fight the endless greenskins. They failed, and the remaining remnants were forced to retreat to the gates of Murkain, and the greenskin warlords soon discovered that the gates were for Opened in response to Ursoran and its defeated army, the cunning Doc-Redeye immediately ordered a general attack. Ursoran decided to make the final resistance. He guarded the gate alone and fought against a dozen green-skinned warlords and shamans at the same time. The duel is like an epic. Ursoran failed after persisting for a long time. Mulkain fell. The greenskin army destroyed and slaughtered everything except greenskins. The Stregg Undead Empire was destroyed. It was once incomparable. The ruins of the glorious Stranger Undead Empire were filled with green-skin ridicule and unwilling screaming echoes from the vampires."

"At this time, there are still two hundred years before Charlemagne established the empire." Bellegar finished a long period of history, and the King of Bafeng Mountain sighed: "A few humans escaped, that is, the Strignanes. They became nomads and wandered around with their caravans. Their myths and legends still record the golden age when their empire was ruled by the "immortal king", and they predicted that Usoran would one day. Come back and lead his people to take back their ancient land and rebuild its glory."

"I know, the Strigoni." Antelm said with a smile: "Once there was a group of Stregonis who came to Winford. The cousin showed his magical power, and the cousin's answer was simple and quick. He ordered the arrest of the group of Strigani people, which can confirm that all the people with magical ability will be executed, and the rest will be expelled."

"Normal, no one wants a group of nomads who extol the vampire king and spread vampire myths and legends all day long to wander around in their own territory and spread all kinds of remarks that are not conducive to social stability and harmony." Ryan nodded helplessly: "They are always unwilling. Settling down is also the vampire king who hopes to see them again one day, right?"

"I heard that a large group of Stranger vampires who have been completely beasted have gathered in Mulkain." Bellega nodded: "These beasted and crazy vampires gathered in the ruins of Mulkain. They still feel that they are living in that glorious history, imitating the scenes of the ancient court of Strygge, who are always obsessed with the glory and fantasy of the past. There."

The King of Flesh? Striger? Mulcain? Ryan lowered his head and thought for a while.

He has actually obtained part of the wealth of the Undead Empire of Strygge. A large part of the wealth given to him by the ancestor of the blood dragon, Iber Wallace, came from the empire of the old Stranger. The ancestor of the blood dragon once joined the U.S. A dull empire served him, and Abe Wallace was not there when Mulkain fell, and then the blood ancestor was forced to start wandering.

"Perhaps we are a group of evil and twisted monsters in the eyes of the Strigni and the undead, and in the eyes of these evil creatures, they themselves are handsome knight aristocrats, well-dressed, elegant and decent." Vero Nika grinned and said, "Their perception has been distorted."

"An empire has a whole historical cycle from birth, development, prosperity, prosperity, to decline and extinction." Ryan took the reins of his mount grape, and said warmly: "If we don't want to go through this cycle, don't want to watch it. As my country perishes in internal and external difficulties, then we must reform and reform ourselves. This is what I have always tried to do. You guys, if you don’t want Brittany to face the same fate as the Stranger Empire , We must strengthen ourselves! We must continue the reform."

The holy grail knights around the king nodded one after another, and many people showed thoughtful expressions.

"Your contribution to the kingdom, we have witnessed it with our own eyes, my king." Karad wanted to seriously express his admiration for Ryan, but when he said this, Bellegar couldn't help laughing. Wang haha ​​laughed, and he shouted at Ryan, "Brother Ryan, brothers, knights, there is a rumor in Haimen Pass recently. Have you heard it? Haha, it's really interesting, Valaya's braids, my number one Once heard such a funny joke!"

"..." Hearing Bellegar's words, many of the knights turned black.

Most of the knights heard the rumor.

"The Breton knights can only win battles under the leadership of dwarfs, women, and foreigners."

Imperial court jokes

"Okay." Ryan let out a sigh, and the king shook his head: "Don't worry about the rumors. You know very well how many people in the entire old world are waiting to hear the news of our expeditionary defeat. Now, win this. A war is more useful than anything else."

"Yes!"

…………I am the dividing line that can speak only if I win…………

The expeditionary army continued to march along the Badwater River, heading towards the Iron Rock located in the Roof Mountains of the World.

Iron Rock is actually not on the necessary place to go to Bafeng Mountain. On the contrary, if you look at the map, Iron Rock is almost in a straight line with Junkubao and Haimen Pass, while Palfeng Mountain is located to the southeast of Iron Rock. Bypassing the Black Rock Fort, judging from the road, the expeditionary force did detour a long way.

As the march toward the badlands progressed, the environment faced by the army gradually began to become difficult. There were not so many green leather city forts to plunder, and the supply line began to be harassed by goblin wolf cavalry and some scattered green leather tribes. The supply of food began to become standardized. Merchants and small vendors who accompanied the army felt the danger and left one after another. Some soldiers could not stand the harsh environment, or fell ill, or deserted. .

At the time of the expedition, more than 40,000 troops were divided and garrisoned and lost. Now there are only about 35,000 people left. Some knight masters saw that there was no benefit to fishing, and they started to talk strange things. They hoped that Ryan would march directly towards Bafeng Mountain. Instead of going around and hitting the steel rock, there have been some remarks within the expedition army, such as "His Majesty Ryan only bows his back, not bowstrings" and "The troops will be dragged down if this goes on."

Ryan sternly refuted the opinions of the expeditionary army. The king said that before attacking Bafeng Mountain, we must conquer the steel rock. Otherwise, if the green-skinned tribe of the steel rock flanks the expedition army from behind or seizes the opportunity to cut off the supply line at a critical moment, the expeditionary army will It is unsustainable. The only ending is the annihilation of the entire army. This is an evil place, not a human kingdom!

Moreover, there is nothing wrong with the harsh environment of the badlands, but along the foothills of the roof of the world, there are tracts of broad-leaved forests, which are the best camping grounds for human beings.

Of course, Ryan also encouraged the expeditionary army, saying that there is a lot of wealth within the steel rock that can be plundered. There is also a huge lava lake under the cemetery of this green leather city, which is rich in obsidian. This precious stone is very valuable and everything awaits. Expedition.

Inspired by Ryan, as the winter passed, in April, the expeditionary force arrived in a broad-leaved forest less than 20 kilometers away from Iron Rock. After a small encounter, the army successfully expelled the forest. A few goblins and green skins, camped in the forest.

The opponent of the Expeditionary Army, the owner of Iron Rock, is one of the greatest green-skinned warlords, the tribe once led by Gobard-Ironclaw, the Ironclaw tribe.

Thousands of green-skinned boys, green-skinned bosses, and green-skinned war pigs are waiting for these bearded enemies and canned shrimps to come and die!
