Chapter 243: The Response of the Severn Kingdom

That's right, it was a massacre. Whether facing the Earth Bear transformed by the Claw Druid or the Mountain Giants who were more burly than the Earth Bear, the attacks of the human soldiers had almost no effect.

The Mountain Giants were fine, as some of the Gold and even Cloud-level warriors in the human army could still knock off some stone chips from them - although these stone chips were like dandruff for the Mountain Giants, they still had some effect after all.

As for the Earth Bears, the humans were really desperate. Whether it was long-range arrows or long spears; whether it was dozens of soldiers slashing at the same time or the strong blows of the masters in the army, they had no effect in front of the thin layer of khaki light film on the Earth Bears.

With the female hunters' troops following closely behind, the army of the Principality of West finally collapsed. Because Yu Fei spent a lot of energy and wood to turn the female hunters into heavy armor units, these seemingly fragile elven knights were as hard to be hurt as the mountain giants and earth bears under the swords and arrows of the human army - after all, the mountain giants and earth bears in the front row attracted more damage.

In terms of output, the total number of 300 female hunters with heavy armor is actually much higher than the mountain giants and earth bears, which add up to less than 100. You know, in addition to being equipped with light heavy armor, the elite female hunters are also equipped with magic moon blades with either ice or fire attributes.

In addition to the output of the night elf archers in the rear, which is comparable to 5,000 human archers, under the example of some great nobles who fled with their private armies first, the human army gradually evolved from retreating in small groups to a full-scale rout.

Although the night elves are strong enough to crush the army of the Duchy of West, they are far behind in terms of numbers. During the pursuit, due to the lack of manpower, 40% to 50% of the human soldiers finally fled to the capital city of Hartlepool.

At this time, Hartlepool was the only city among the surrounding human countries that had not been captured by the night elves. In addition to Hartlepool, another relatively powerful principality in the surrounding area had also been captured by the night elf troops - of course, from the perspective of humans, it was all under the "clutches" of the aliens.

Of course, this last stronghold occupied by humans will not produce many heroic figures like in the legends, thus turning defeat into victory and repelling the aliens. Under the ravages of the night elf glaive throwers and the mountain giants that turned into siege mode, Hartlepool was quickly conquered.

However, unlike other cities, Hartlepool, as the largest city among the surrounding small countries, was designated as a temporary base by Tyrande and other night elf leaders. After leaving a horned eagle knight in each city, the night elves and the alien vassal troops from other routes gathered in Hartlepool City.

Three days had passed since the night elf troops stepped out of the Whispering Wind Forest. The war in the western region of the human world was not known to the entire human world, but some surrounding kingdoms also knew about the war.

However, Yu Fei's strategy of blocking the news obviously worked. In various cities, the puppet rulers supported by the night elves implemented various controls and spread a lot of false news.

This made the news detected by other human countries completely different from the actual situation. For example, the intelligence system of the Kingdom of Seven received news that the Amazon tribe, which had not appeared for more than 20 years, reappeared in the vision of human countries with several times stronger strength than before.

As a long-standing enemy, the surrounding kingdoms did not react excessively. After all, the Amazon tribe had many frictions with those small human countries in the past, and it is normal for them to come back and brush their presence now.

Among the surrounding kingdoms, the Kingdom of Seven has the strongest control over the small countries in the east of the Whispering Wind Forest. In the eyes of other kingdoms, the most anxious one is the Severn Kingdom, so these countries are happy to wait and see.

As for the Severn Kingdom, although there are some more radical voices in the court, more ministers are seeking stability.

In the palace of Dundrum, the royal city of the Severn Kingdom. With the sharp announcement of the eunuch, an old man in gorgeous clothes walked into the royal study of the palace. Behind the desk in the room sat a middle-aged man with silver hair. This middle-aged man is naturally the current king of the Severn Kingdom, Severn IX.

The ruler of one of the most powerful kingdoms in the human world, second only to the three empires, raised his head and looked at the old man who walked into the study, showing a smile, then turned his head and frowned at the eunuch beside him: "Prime Minister Edward is here, don't you know to move a seat?"

The eunuch immediately moved a chair in panic, placed it on the left hand side of the desk, and respectfully asked the old man to sit down. The old man did not refuse, tidied his clothes and sat on the chair.

Then, the study fell into silence. After a while, Severn IX spoke first helplessly: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, you are indeed very composed." Prime Minister Edward, who had been sitting on the right hand side of the king with a blank expression, smiled slightly and looked at Severn IX.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I am very composed, but I know that Your Majesty has probably already made up his mind. I am afraid that summoning me to see you is just to announce Your Majesty's decision, so I will naturally not speak first." Prime Minister Edward said with a smile.

Severn IX smiled helplessly. "Sure enough, the prime minister knows me best!" After a pause, Severn IX asked the prime minister: "Then, prime minister, guess what my decision is?"

Prime Minister Edward cleared his throat and said: "Actually, from our perspective, although the Amazons are aliens and enemies of mankind, they are still very useful to us."

"When the Amazons were active in the area of ​​the Principality of West more than twenty years ago, the Principality of West was not as strong as it is now. Because of the threat from the Amazon, those small countries had to rely on stronger countries and leave. These small countries are relatively close but our country, which is powerful, is naturally their first choice.”

There was a look of memory on the prime minister's face. "Although the small countries represented by the Principality of West were not very strong individually, the sum of these countries could bring a lot of benefits to our country every year."

"In order to be less or even immune to the intrusion of the Amazon, those small countries secretly subordinated themselves to our country. Therefore, the late king had the ambition to establish the fourth empire of Eslaze continent."

"But after the Amazons disappeared from the human world more than 20 years ago, everything has changed dramatically. Without the threat of the Amazons, those small countries have gradually escaped from our control one by one. Especially West The principality has experienced the hard work of two great princes who can be said to be talented and strategic, and its strength has become comparable to some of the weaker kingdoms on the mainland. "

When Severn IX heard this, he stood up and walked out from behind the desk, pacing in the study with his hands behind his back. Prime Minister Edward also temporarily stopped talking and looked at the king.

"Yes, those small countries have become more and more arrogant in recent years, especially the Principality of West! Last time, I used my fiftieth birthday to test how much influence my country still has in the surrounding small countries. Who knows about the West? The Principality actually sent only one special envoy, and he wasn’t even a member of the royal family!”

The prime minister also concentrated and said in a deep voice: "When you are strong, you will naturally have ambitions. We originally wanted to beat those small countries in the west, but we can't find a reason. The comeback of the Amazon family is actually a good thing for our country."

Thirty years ago, every time the Amazons invaded a human country, it was actually a time when the Severn Kingdom made a lot of money. Those small countries did not have the strength to drive away the Amazons, so they had no choice but to turn to the Severn Kingdom for help. Naturally, the Severn Kingdom would not help those countries in vain. They would send troops to drive away the Amazons only after confirming some agreements in private.

Sometimes the Severn Kingdom would even deliberately allow the Amazons to plunder small countries that did not obey the Kingdom's orders, in order to frighten other principalities and states. After the Amazon clan disappears, naturally there will be no such good things.

Nowadays, the comeback of the Amazon clan is naturally a joy for those old officials who know the situation back then. Only the new ministers of the Young and Strong Sect would clamor in the court to immediately send troops to teach the foreigners a lesson.

"Hmph!" Severn IX snorted coldly, his eyes cold. "Let's not worry about the Amazons for the time being. The more those small countries learn a lesson this time, the more they will rely on me, the Severn Kingdom, in the future. When I control them all, I will be able to realize my father's ambition. "

Prime Minister Edward stood up from his chair and bowed deeply to Severn IX: "Your Majesty!" Then the monarch and his ministers looked at each other and smiled, and the Severn Kingdom's attitude towards the war in the small western country was determined.

However, what these two monarchs and ministers did not know was that this alien invasion was not just as simple as the Amazon's comeback. The Amazons are just a smoke screen put out by the night elves. After using the resources of many small countries to expand its power, I am afraid that the Severn Kingdom will have no chance to respond.

Although Yu Fei didn't know the decision of the Severn Kingdom, he was not worried at all. No way, with the vigorous collection of the puppet rulers supported by the puppet rulers, gold and magic crystal energy stones and other items that can be converted into energy in the treasury of small human countries have gradually gathered in the Forest of Wind Whisperers.

In just three days, the strength of the night elves has more than doubled compared to when they first stepped out of the Wind Whispering Forest. Even if he goes to conquer the Severn Kingdom now, Yu Fei has a certain degree of confidence.

But of course he would not choose to do this - the existing resources are enough for the night elves to develop in a short period of time. Only with stronger strength can they set off a bigger storm in the Eslaze continent.
