C7 A Year ago

Article 7, 500 years ago.

He looked at Vivian, who was ready to listen to the story. Jie cleared his throat and said. 500 years ago, outside the Diur Empire, the largest war in the history of the Tarur Continent was about to begin. The two sides of the war were led by the Beast King Allen Hughes Byron, the 870,000 troops of the Orc Kingdom. The one fighting against the Orc Kingdom was the Holy Church of Light's current Pope Fredrick, who led the Sacred War Alliance. Among them were the 1.4 million troops formed by more than 20 countries, including Pannasi Empire, Diur Empire, Holy Competition Empire and Silia Kingdom.

The cause of this war had to be mentioned two years ago. In the year 212 of the Continental Calendar, the Second Prince of Diur, francis, launched a military coup and killed the Crown Prince, chestt. The rebels took over the capital of the empire and surrounded the Imperial Palace. Emperor Wells of the empire announced his abdication and passed the throne to Francis. After Francis took the throne, he immediately cleaned up the military forces and firmly held the empire's army in his hands.

Francis wanted to ease the increasingly intense conflicts in the country. In the spring of the second year after he ascended the throne, he joined forces with Rasser Kingdom to launch an invasion against the Orc Kingdom. The six small countries affiliated with Diur, Rasser Kingdom and the two countries sent a total of 300,000 troops to invade the Orc Kingdom.

The allied army of the eight countries advanced smoothly, taking down five cities of various sizes in the Orc Kingdom. Wherever they went, they plundered without restraint. Just the able-bodied male Orcs alone totalled up to 100,000, while the young female Orcs numbered 50,000. All of them were transported back to the country and sold to nobles or other countries as slaves.

At this time, the king of the Orc Kingdom, Byron, had already gone into seclusion to cultivate a month before the invasion of the Diur Alliance Army. As no one knew the location of his seclusion. Thus, the war in the kingdom could not be reported in time. Because they could not find the king, the kingdom's most elite Violent Bloodthirsty Wolf Army, behemoth Army, Raging Bear Legion, and Half-Orc Army could not be mobilized.

Because the laws of the Orc Kingdom stipulated that only the king himself could move the four legions. Without the king's authorization, the military could not move and command the four legions.

Without the most elite four legions, only the defending troops and some miscellaneous troops could not resist the 300,000 elite troops of the human race, so they lost several cities in a row.

The second month of the alliance army's invasion, the situation changed. Beast King Byron came out of seclusion. When the beast king Byron heard the report, he was furious. He immediately mobilized 200,000 men from the main force of the four legions and 200,000 men from the regular army, a total of 400,000 men, to find a chance to fight the alliance army.

Because the alliance army had obtained consecutive victories, they no longer put the Orc Army in their eyes. When the army arrived at a place called Broken Soul Valley, the military advisor reminded the two commanders of the alliance army, the uncle of Diur Empire and the third prince of Rasser Kingdom, fick, to say, "This valley is huge. It is ten miles long and has cliffs on both sides. The space in the valley is huge, but the entrance and exit are relatively narrow. If our army walks into the valley and the Orc Army cuts off the front and back roads before setting up an ambush on the cliff above, our army will be in danger of being completely wiped out.

At this moment, the two commanders of the alliance army had already lost their minds from the consecutive victories. Plus, the two of them basically did not have much military talent. They had to rely on their status to become the commander of the alliance army. Hence, they did not take the military advisor's reminder to heart at all. Furthermore, the humans on the continent all knew that... Orcs did not know how to use schemes, they only knew how to use brute force. Thus, the two commanders only sent out two eagle scouts to scout above the cliff. The scouting radius was only three miles. After the eagle scouts did not discover anything unusual, they directly reported it to the Alliance Army commander.

After seeing the investigation report, naer and Fick laughed and said, "All humans on the continent know the truth. You, who are known as professional military strategists, actually doubt it. I really don't know what the Military Department's use for raising trash like you." Naer laughed loudly at the military strategists.

Originally, the military staff officers wanted to request to send a small number of vanguard troops to scout the valley first, but after Naer and Fick's mockery, they immediately rejected this idea.

Thus, the 300 thousand troops swaggered into the valley. When the majority of the alliance army entered the valley, when the vanguard troops had already left the valley, the Orc Kingdom's army suddenly appeared at the entrance of the valley. They rushed out of countless secret tunnels. They crossed the alliance army in an instant, and the entrance of the valley was attacked by the elites of the Behemoth Army and the Mad Wolf Army. The exit was blocked by the elites of the Raging Bear Legion and the Half-Orc Army. The four legions sent out a total of forty thousand elites to block the insufferably arrogant alliance army in the valley. At this time, countless regular Orc troops appeared on the cliff above the valley. A large number of arrows, stones, and logs fell into the valley like rain.

The alliance army immediately suffered a destructive blow. At this time, the Alliance Army was unable to call for help. In a short two hours, they were completely wiped out. During this period of time, the two Sword Saint warriors from Diur Empire and Rasser Kingdom discovered the King Byron who was watching the battle from above the cliff. They had the idea of capturing Byron and forcing Orc Army to retreat.

The two Sword Saint warriors leaped onto the top of the cliff, which was more than 50 meters tall. They rushed towards Byron. Due to their speed being too fast, the Grand Sword Master guards beside King Byron were unable to react in time. This was the difference in level. Although there was only a difference of one realm between Sword Saint and Grand Sword Master, the difference in strength was huge.

When the two Sword Saint warriors thought that they were going to succeed... Byron moved. He simply waved the sword in his hand at the two Sword Saint warriors. Combat power mixed with wind and lightning instantly exploded on their bodies. Both of them were seriously injured after just one attack. Although they didn't die immediately, there was no saving them. The Sword Saint of Diur Empire knelt on one knee and used his sword to support himself with one hand. He spat out a mouthful of blood. How is this possible? Someone fused combat power and magic together. Could it be, could it be that you have reached the realm of Holy Devil Warrior? " After saying that, Sword Saint fell to the ground. He had already vented a lot of his anger. He didn't breathe too much.

At this time, Byron walked to the Sword Saint's side and said, "Yes, I have already reached that realm. You have done your best. Rest in peace!" After Byron finished speaking, Sword Saint actually closed his eyes and stopped breathing. There was actually a trace of a smile on this Sword Saint's face. It seemed like being able to die under the sword of the first Holy Devil Warrior on the continent was a different kind of glory.

During the Battle of the Broken Soul Valley, the alliance army was completely wiped out. 260 thousand people died in battle, and around 20 thousand were captured. The two commanders of the alliance army were heavily injured and captured. The moment the news of the alliance army being defeated spread out, the continent was shocked.

The emperor of Diur, francis, cursed at Naer for being useless. Then, he joined together with the king of Laszlo, carmen, and sent a message to the Orc Kingdom, asking the Orc Kingdom to release the alliance army's prisoners and commander immediately. They also asked the Orc Kingdom to compensate 1 million continent coins and 100 thousand Orc slave. Otherwise, a full-scale war would break out.

Francis and Carmen didn't come with continent coins and slaves. Instead, there were two heads. One of them was Naar, and the other one was Fick's. There was also the million strong army of the Orc Kingdom.

When he saw the frontline battle report, king Caman of Laszle was stunned. Was this still the Orc Kingdom? For hundreds of years, humans had taken the initiative to attack the Orc Kingdom. Only after obtaining a certain amount of benefits did they withdraw their troops. If they didn't obtain land, they would obtain money, and then they would obtain slaves. And now, the Orc Kingdom had actually invaded his own kingdom.

The invasion of the Orc Kingdom was just the beginning, and then something even more shocking happened. The Orc Kingdom's army had swept through 70% of the Lazas Kingdom's territory in a month's time.

Lazis and Diur once again formed an alliance, but in the end, they suffered another great defeat. Year 214 of the Continental Calendar, march, the capital city of the Lazas Kingdom was conquered. The Lazis Kingdom was destroyed, and the members of the royal family and nobles led 100,000 veterans to escape to the Diur Empire to seek refuge.

Currently, the Diur Empire was having a tough time. Along with the defeat of the Lazas Kingdom, the Orc Kingdom started to focus all their attention on the Diur Empire. In just two months, more than half of the Diur Empire's territory was lost, and the main force of the army was destroyed. It was only a matter of time before the empire was destroyed.

At this moment, the emperor of Diur Empire, francis, no longer had the high spirits he had when he had just succeeded the throne. He was only 28 years old now, and he looked like an old man who was almost 60 years old. Most of his hair had already turned white.

However, there was good news today, which made the emperor of Diur, who had been depressed for a few months, smile.

Due to the powerful invasion of the Orc Kingdom, it had severely threatened the entire human world. Pope Paul the Fifth of the Holy Church of Light issued a holy war order, calling all human nations to form an allied army to block the attack of the Orc Kingdom.

Once Pope Paul of the Holy Church of Light issued the holy war order, all human countries immediately began to prepare for battle nervously. After preparing for half a month, the army of Holy Competition Empire first headed towards the border of Diur Empire. It only took five days to enter Diur Empire. On the third day after entering Diur Empire, they met up with the allied forces of Diur and Lazis.

With the participation of Army of the Holy Competition Empire, they finally stopped the large-scale attack of the Orc Kingdom for the time being. After that, the armies of other human countries came to the Diur Empire one after another. They formed a confrontation with the army of the Orc Kingdom. The armies of both sides had fought many times, and both sides had won and lost. Neither side was able to completely defeat the other.

In the following year, the Orc Kingdom's army and the Sacred War Alliance's army had fought several times, and both sides had lost a large number of troops and wealth. Although there were wins and losses between them, the Orc Kingdom still had a certain advantage.

As the war grew longer and longer, all the warring countries could not bear the huge consumption. The people within the country were filled with resentment, and the internal conflicts intensified. Some countries even broke out in peasant revolts, causing the rulers of the human countries to have a headache.

The situation in the Orc Kingdom was also not optimistic. The soldiers who had been fighting for years were already exhausted, and the endless riots in the Lhazas Kingdom and Diur Empire gave Byron a headache. In addition, the economic foundation of the Orc Kingdom was weak, and they simply couldn't bear the burden of a long war.

Both sides felt somewhat powerless and wanted to find an opportunity to fight to end this protracted war.
