Soon, the entire continent received a piece of news. As the Elves were being pushed back, the Humans, who were allies of the Elves, could no longer sit still. The Humans' second army, led by Duke Ruolin, went to support the Elves. In an instant, the war between the Beastmen and the Elves escalated into a faction war. The scale of the war continued to expand, and the reactions of all sides on the continent varied.
The Elves already knew about this long ago. Now that the Human army had just set off, the news was already exposed. This wasn't good news. If this matter could be concealed, it might give the Beastmen a surprise and catch them off guard. But now, the Beastmen would definitely be prepared, and they would lose the initiative. The Elf Queen Rachel frowned. The situation wasn't good, but she could only try her best to defend. She hoped that the Duke of Aquitaine would be able to turn the tide.
The Beastmen were very angry. We are fighting the Elves, why are the Humans here? Aren't you looking for trouble? We didn't come to the Humans this autumn to take advantage of you. Why are you interfering with us robbing the Elves?
The Orcs did indeed intend to send their second legion into the battle. They didn't expect the Elves to be so easy to deal with. Initially, they only sent one legion into the battle, but as the battle went on, the Orcs were able to fight their way to Sulina City.
Because they had plundered so many things, the Orcs saw the benefits and immediately sent the First Corps to participate in the battle. As a result, they were able to take down Surina City, and they struck it rich again. They had never seen so many things in their entire lives before.
However, after conquering Sulina City, the Beastmen were divided. Should they continue to send more people to attack and conquer the Elves' main city, or should they stop and return with the loot and prisoners of war? The council debated endlessly.
There were some differences between the Beastmen's council and the Humans'. Although there was a King, the King's authority was not as great as the Humans'. This was because the Beastmen were divided into many different races, such as the Ox-Head, the Wolves, the Lions, the Cats, and so on. When a country was first established, the leaders of these races came together to form a council and elected a great leader. Usually, national affairs had to be approved by the council. Even the great leader could not go against the council's decision. This caused a debate in the council. Some agreed, some opposed. The Beastmen did not receive the order, so they could only rest in Sulina City and wait for the council to come up with an answer.
At this time, the Beast Race received the news that the Human Race had begun to send troops. This time, the Beast Race was really a bit angry. A group of hot-blooded Beast Race patriarchs requested to send troops. But after thinking about it carefully, they realized that it wouldn't be easy to fight after the Human Race joined the war … At this critical juncture, Great Leader Dilba put forward an idea. Since the Human Race has joined the war, why don't we get the Demon Race to join the war as well?
All the patriarchs thought about it. That's right, we also have allies. Why don't we pull them to fight together? Anyway, the Human Race and the Demon Race are also mortal enemies. They would definitely be happy to fight the Human Race. So the Beastmen immediately sent ambassadors to find the Demons.
As for the Demons, when they heard that the Humans had joined the war, the Demons also became restless. As everyone knew, the Demons were the mortal enemies of the Humans. As long as they could kill the Humans, the Demons would dare to do anything. Of course, the Humans were the same. So when the Demons heard that the Humans were going to send troops, the first reaction of the Demons' leader, Bayzera, was that they should fight too.
But the problem was, where should they fight? Attack the Humans' territory while the Second Legion was not around? Bayzera gave up. He only had a little over 190,000 troops. The First Legion was completely annihilated by Li Huailin last time. Now, he barely had 40,000 new soldiers. They still did not have the ability to fight. On the other hand, the Humans' First Legion was still around. Although the Fourth Legion was also damaged, they still had 40,000 old soldiers, which was much better than Bayzera's. It would be very difficult for him to take advantage of such a force to defend the city …
At this moment, the Beastmen's ambassadors arrived, and Bayzera immediately received them. After hearing their request, Bayzera's eyes lit up. It wouldn't be enough to fight alone, but with the Second Legion's help, the Beastmen still had 100,000 soldiers and 40,000 new soldiers. Defending the city shouldn't be a problem. On the other hand, the Beastmen's 230,000 soldiers and his Second Legion's 320,000 soldiers would definitely be able to annihilate the 170,000 Humans and Elves. Wouldn't it be great when the Second Legion of the Humans was destroyed?
After considering the pros and cons, Bayzera immediately agreed to the request for reinforcements. The Second Legion would immediately head north and join forces with the Second Legion of the Beastmen. All the troops would gather in Surina City and directly attack the Elves' main city. They would fight to the death under the main city and annihilate the Elves' army.
After receiving the news that the Demons were willing to send reinforcements, the Beastmen's Parliament was completely relieved. 320,000 soldiers was more than enough to crush the Elves. There was nothing to hesitate about. The Elves were doomed this time. Therefore, the Parliament immediately decided to dispatch the Second Legion of the Beastmen, while the First and Third Legions would rest and reorganize in Surina City. Once the entire army was assembled, they would attack the Elves' main city.
Just like that, two days passed. At the encampment of the Second Legion of the Demons, the highest commander of the Second Legion, Keshnell, was ready to set off. Since he received the order from Bezera two days ago, Keshnell had started to make preparations. Keshnell was a war maniac and loved fighting. This time, he was going to fight against human troops. Keshnell was so happy that he couldn't wait to lead his troops to harvest the heads of the humans. Pitifully, he needed time to prepare before he sent out his troops. After waiting anxiously for two days, all the preparations were finally completed. Although it was already close to night, Keshnell didn't want to wait until tomorrow to set off.
"Everyone, listen up! Although we have lost the support of the Beastmen's attack on the main city of the Elves, everyone should know who our mortal enemy is. " Keshnell stood on a high platform and gave a final war mobilization speech to a group of Demons.
"Humans!" "Kill all humans!" "Kill all humans!" A group of soldiers loudly shouted. They had been taught by the Dark Church since childhood that humans were bad and their mortal enemy. Therefore, they must kill all humans.
"Well said!" Keshnell happily said, "This time, our target is the Second Legion of the Human Race! Everyone should know that the Second Legion has killed 80,000 of our compatriots in the previous battle. This is simply an unforgivable crime! What do you think we should do? "
"Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!" The Demons raised their weapons and shouted at the same time.
"Well said! They deserve to be killed! Especially their Legion Commander, that Human Adventurer named Ruolin. He is the culprit who killed our compatriots. This time, we must avenge them! I will catch that bastard with my own hands and skin him alive! "Keshnell shouted.
"Skin him alive!" "Skin him alive!" "Skin him alive!" All the soldiers shouted at the same time.
"Good! Maintain this momentum. Now, we are going to rendezvous with the Second Legion of the Beastmen. Then, we will go to Sulina City together. Our allies should be waiting for us. Therefore, we have to set off now. We might have to travel through the night. Everyone, stay alert. In front of the Beastmen, we can't lose the momentum of the elite Demons! "Keshnell said.
"Yes!" All the soldiers shouted at the same time.
"Good, let's go!" Keshnell looked at the majestic troops and nodded with satisfaction. Indeed, the Second Legion had not fought such a big battle for a long time. Perhaps everyone was as excited as him and couldn't wait to twist off the heads of the human soldiers.
The mobilization was very effective. Keshnell nodded, and the Second Legion of the Demons set off. As for the Beastmen, the Second Legion of the Beastmen had already made preparations while the Parliament was still discussing. Therefore, they set off two days earlier than the Demons. They were probably waiting for the Second Legion of the Beastmen and the Demons at the border. Therefore, Keshnell was in a hurry, and the speed of the Second Legion of the Beastmen and the Demons was slightly faster.
After marching for an hour, the Legion of the Beastmen had entered a hilly area. The surrounding mountains were undulating, and the vegetation was dense. Moreover, there had been a lot of rain recently, which slightly affected their marching speed. Therefore, they could only pass through the low-lying valleys.
While walking, Keshnell was still studying the battle between Gordon and the Second Legion of the Beastmen to his Deputy General Salem.
"That Gordon is really a useless, mediocre commander. The other party's scheme is so obvious, yet he foolishly jumped into it. He's still called the first commander of the Devil Race. He really doesn't live up to his name." Deputy General Salem naturally belittled Gordon. The relationship between Keshnell and Gordon was not very good. The two had competed for the position of the First Legion of the Beastmen, but Keshnell had lost. Three years later, he became the Commander of the Second Legion of the Beastmen. However, the enmity between the two had been formed ever since.
"Hmph." Keshnell snorted. "Of course. Gordon is extremely stupid. I don't know how Lord Bezerra was deceived by him. He actually chose him as the Commander of the First Legion of the Beastmen. If I was the Commander of the Beastmen, how could I have fallen into such a clumsy trap?"
"Is that so?" a voice suddenly sounded from the side.
"Of course!" Keshnell answered subconsciously. However, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, because it was not the voice of his Deputy General Salem.
Kaichener immediately turned around and saw a man in his twenties sitting on the hill. The man had black hair and black eyes. He seemed to be a human. However, this was the territory of demons. How could a human appear here?
"Who are you?" Keshnell immediately asked vigilantly.
"I don't know?" Li Huailin said with a smile. "Come, bring out my flag!"
A soldier walked out of the nearby bushes with a big flag in his hand. The word "awesome" was written on it, and an arrow was pointing at Li Huailin's head.
"Keshnell, right? Hello, Keshnell. Goodbye, Keshnell." Li Huailin said with a smile. "Someone, send him to hell."
