Paradox players' simulation game

Irelia looked at the battle report.

The elves' invasion war was just like the orcs' food robbery. The war stage was extremely cruel, and innocent people in the captured cities were killed on a large scale.

What's funny is that the elves always advertise themselves as a peace-loving race and that the war with humans is to dispel the threat to themselves. This is really nonsense.

If these guys had the ability to exterminate humanity, they would probably implement this plan without hesitation.

[In February 1780, the elves captured the city of Cassi and carried out a large-scale massacre in the city.]

【Cassi City has been lost.】

[In the same month, King Zi Ling sent an army of 30,000 to fight the elves, but was defeated, and the Zi Ling army lost more than 10,000 soldiers.]

[In the same month, the sea tribe launched a large-scale attack, and the coastal areas of Ziling Kingdom were invaded by the sea tribe army.]

Irelia's face turned pale.

"The elves and the sea tribe have joined forces?"

This time the two tribes launched the attack at the same time. It was too much of a coincidence to say it was a coincidence. It must have been premeditated.

Sure enough, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.

Although the elves looked down on other races, facing the pressure of the threat from humans, they still "lowered their status" and reached an agreement with the sea people.

Seeing wars breaking out everywhere around the map of the Purple Spirit Kingdom, Irelia couldn't help but worry. She looked in the direction of Cassi City. If she remembered correctly, Ash's territory, Harvey City, was less than 30 kilometers away from there.

The Purple Spirit Army was defeated, which was something Irelia had not expected. You have to know that there were 10,000 Royal Cavalry Guards among the 30,000-strong army, and it was unexpected that more than 10,000 people were lost in this situation.

Those damn elves must have been preparing for an invasion for a long time!

The magic and bows of the elves have a great restraint on any type of soldiers, especially archers, who are naturally endowed with powerful magical powers and have a strong penetrating effect on armor, unless the defense capability reaches the level of the Magic Armor Iron Pagoda... Of course, it is not enough to achieve three-dimensional attributes, and it also depends on famous generals to add various buffs.

In other words, only a famous general of Ash's level can bring out the greatest advantages of the army.

The problem is that Harvey City is located in a war-torn territory, and Ash has only 3,000 men under his command, unlike the 10,000 elite soldiers he had during the Benicia period. Also, there has been no news of Ash leading his army to cause chaos on the border.

"Why is there still no news from Yasuna?"

Several action rounds had passed, and Irelia had not received any news from her sister.

At this time, news came back from the front line that Princess Yasna was besieged by the elves in the Earls Mountains.

King Zi Ling was furious and immediately sent 5,000 royal cavalry guards to the rescue.

Irelia opened the map and saw that Earls was located in the south of Cassi City, more than 20 kilometers away from Harvey City. There was a small path leading directly to Harvey City. It was estimated that when Yasna chose to take that road, she encountered the elves.

[Felice: Irelia, your sister is going to be killed by you. ]

[Irelia: Ms. Ferris, if you have time to make sarcastic remarks, why don’t you study harder so that you don’t die so quickly next time! ]

Irelia's face also turned cold. Can you go to school if you have nothing to do?

[In early February, the Royal Cavalry was ambushed by the elves and was completely wiped out.]

[In the same month, Marquis Hilton led 3,000 troops to rescue, but was also ambushed by the elves, and retreated with 1,000 casualties.]

Seeing the news on the interface, Irelia was slightly startled, and immediately thought of the method used by Ash in the battle for the throne of Benicia, surrounding the city and attacking the reinforcements.

The elves may be arrogant, but they are indeed quite powerful and sometimes quite smart.

At this point, Irelia knew she couldn't wait any longer. She was the one who called Jasna over, and now his life or death was unknown. She had a responsibility.

[You apply to King Zi Ling for permission to go to war.]

[King Zi Ling agreed to your request and asked you to lead an army of 30,000 to repel the invasion of the elves.]

A large number of troops from the Purple Spirit Kingdom were involved in the battlefield in the South China Sea, so there were not many people left for Irelia. If it was a defensive battle, the troops of the nobles from the major territories would be gathered together, but they were only responsible for defense. It would be very difficult to ask them to lead the troops to attack the elves.

Irelia knew this very well.

[You led your army to the Ers Mountains and were attacked by the elves.]

Irelia immediately activated her famous skill - 'Aggression Like Fire', which increased her attack, defense, and speed by 15%.

['Purple Spirit Soldiers, Kill!']

Tens of thousands of troops collided with each other.

Irelia took precautions against the elves' ambush in advance, and used the other party's ambush mentality to counterattack, gaining some advantage. After a wave of attacks, the two sides were evenly matched.

The elves set up a defense line in the Earls Mountains, and used the city of Cassi as a supply base. With the support of the Elf Kingdom's troops in the rear at any time, they formed a stable offensive route.

When they take down the cities around Cassi City, and their territory expands and they bring their army here, then this territory of the Purple Spirit Kingdom will belong to the Elf Kingdom.

Irelia understood this, so she had to block the Earls Mountains first, otherwise the elves would completely occupy this place, and then try to get in touch with Ash and start a siege.

But at the same time, she was worried about Yasuna's safety.

[You sent people to search the Ers Mountains, but could not find any trace of Yasna.]

"Asuna...please don't be in any trouble."

......

[Successfully explored the beast realm, and obtained the magic beast 'Flame Dragon Lizard'*1000. ]

Youyue Castle.

Ash looked at the information on the interface and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally the battle is over. However, this beast realm is really huge. We have explored less than 30% of it so far. Fortunately, there were no major casualties. I guess we shouldn't rush in here rashly next time."

The Beast Realm is a dangerous secret realm that is prevalent on the Rhea continent.

All the monsters on the continent came from the Beast Realm. Hundreds of years ago, a large-scale monster craze broke out. Countries on the continent suffered heavy casualties. After a long war, they were able to barely destroy the monster army.

Most of those beast realms were sealed by top powerhouses using secret methods.

But cracks in the beast realm are everywhere.

This resulted in the monsters on the Rhea continent being impossible to completely eliminate.

Nowadays, most beast realms are under the control of the Holy Court. Occasionally, some less dangerous beast realms have become places for countries and adventurers to gain experience. Generally speaking, as long as there is no beast tide, the danger factor of the beast realm is not that high.

When Ash was exploring for resources before, he happened to discover this beast realm. The materials on the monsters are valuable items for alchemy, and the magic cores are also treasures of magicians. It can be said that hunting monsters is a job that makes money quickly as long as safety can be guaranteed.

However, after exploring this beast realm, Ash had a new idea.

Catch monsters.

The profession of Beastmaster exists in the Rhea continent, but due to limiting conditions, the development of Beastmasters is not smooth.

Ash didn't want to be a beastmaster. What he cared about was that these monsters could be tamed. If they could be tamed, then it would be possible to drive them to do work.

Whether it is used in war or for something else, even if it is used as meat, it won't hurt to give it a try.

So Ash took great pains and stayed in the beast realm for more than a month before he barely managed to catch a thousand fire dragon lizards.

The Flame Dragon Lizard is a third-level magical beast. It has thick skin and flesh, extremely high life defense, and can spit fire.

In order to catch these guys, he lost five hundred Iron Pagodas, but fortunately, the materials from the killed monsters were enough to make up for it after selling them, so he didn't feel sad at all.

"This thing seems to be very suitable for charging."

Ash opened the Flame Dragon Lizard's attribute page.

A third-order magical beast with terrifyingly strong three-dimensional properties, much taller than the Iron Pagoda after it is formed. What would be the effect if it could form an army and charge?

What? No one uses Warcraft as an army?

shallow!

In war, one must have active thoughts and flexible morals.

Ash thought about it and decided to just throw the knights onto the flame dragon lizards to form dragon lizard knights. This way it is still people-oriented and it doesn't count as using monsters as an army, right?

The main reason was that he was worried that the Holy See would find an excuse to call him a heretic, saying something like "Ash is a spy sent by the monsters." I'll beat your mother's leg! I was sent by the Mother Goddess of Life!

Although he was too disdainful to explain, he just wanted to be on the safe side. After his last experience, he now had a better understanding of the shamelessness of the Holy See.

The transformation of the Flame Dragon Lizard into cavalry should be possible with the arms editor, but the requirements for the three-dimensional attributes of the soldiers should be extremely high, which he still needs to think about carefully.

"Huh? Why did they start fighting?"

When Yaxiu led his troops back to the strategic map, he discovered that the surrounding area was already filled with wind, forest, volcanoes, and fire, with red dots and green dots everywhere.

After learning the strategic information, he found out what had happened in the past two months.

"It turned out to be the elves attacking."

A glance at the map showed that the city of Cassi had been captured, and the elven army had occupied most of the Earls Mountains, forming a standoff with the purple elf army led by Irelia and the surrounding noble territories, with the two sides fighting fiercely.

Not only that, the elven army has begun to extend to both sides of Cassi City, seemingly intending to join forces with the army attacking Dekalia and Dikaner to form a front line to blockade the Purple Spirit Kingdom.

Once the battle line is formed, border areas such as Cassi City and Harvi City will become the territory of the Elf Kingdom.

Unfortunately, the elves' plan failed when it reached Harvey City.

Before he set out, he handed over the management of the city to a trusted subordinate - Navit Hades, a purple card general with a leadership ability of 89.

With Navitt around, Ash wasn't worried about the city being breached.

Of course, there are still 10,000 permanent troops stationed in Harvey City, as well as 40,000 troops hidden in the surrounding areas. In this case, Ash is just a trustee, and the elves cannot invade.

The 50,000-strong army was the result of his massive military buildup during this period. He had consumed countless resources and gold coins, and had managed to build up 20,000 Iron Pagodas, 10,000 Magic Archers, and 20,000 ordinary guards.

According to the economic situation of Harvey City, it was difficult to feed so many people. Fortunately, these soldiers were sensible and knew that he worked hard to manage the city. They all rushed to ask for no salary, which saved him a lot of military expenses.

Ash opened the city information.

Several battle messages were refreshed inside.

[Navito repelled the elven army and killed 3000 elven warriors.]

[Navito repelled the elven army and killed 2500 elven warriors.]

[Navit repelled the elf army and killed...]

After a whole row, the elves lost 8,000 troops in the attack on Harvey City, while Ash's side suffered only more than 3,000 casualties, with more than 1,000 dead and 2,000 injured.

"Ok?"

A prompt popped up in front of Ash.

[Princess Asuna requests to meet you. ]

Yasna?

The third princess of Ziling Kingdom?

The scene changed, and the princess appeared in front of Ash, led by her guards.

['Earl Ash.']

She has the same long purple hair and delicate features as Irelia, and her facial features are 70% similar, but her temperament is completely different. Irelia is a brave knight, while Asuna appears gentle and intellectual.

Ash remembered that in the background introduction of the Purple Spirit Kingdom, the third princess was a supporting character with strong magical talent. In "In the Name of the Princess", she could also be a target that players could pursue.

Because it is paired with Irelia and has the achievement of "Sisters' Donburi", it is very popular among the player community.

['Princess, why are you here?' Ash asked. ]

['I came to Harvey City to see you at the request of my sister, but I was attacked by the elves halfway through. All the soldiers and guards accompanying me were killed. I was stranded for half a month and was rescued by your subordinates.']

[Asuna's favorability towards you increases. ]

"?"

Ash was slightly stunned.

What’s going on? My favorability level has increased after just two sentences?

He opened Yasuna's character column and found a 'Long Heard of Your Name' status on it. This thing is similar to a buff, but a little different. It almost represents the character's tendency in this situation.

For example, when he was training Wei Nei before, the latter was in a state of "thirst for knowledge", and her speed of learning and acquiring knowledge was particularly fast.

On the contrary, if you are in a state of "physical and mental exhaustion", then learning will be half the result with twice the effort.

Yasna was rescued by Ash's men, and has been staying in Harvey City all this time, witnessing the elves' assault on the city, but each time they were repelled by the defense, with the defender Navit saying - 'Earl Ash, an amazing man.'

Even the people of Harvi City praised the city lord highly, which made Yasuna admire Ash for a long time.

['Count Ash, the elves have invaded the kingdom and wantonly killed the people of the kingdom. Please send troops to save the people from the water and fire.']

[Princess Asuna asks you to send troops to attack the elves. Do you agree? ]

Seeing the prompt, Ash agreed without hesitation.
