Chapter 69 Troll Territory

The armies of both sides came into full contact and roared together. The morale of the goblin front army had already been crushed by the berserkers, and the rout spread to the back, those armies composed of nobles from all over the world instantly collapsed, and the only ones that had been holding on were the three legions of the empire and the middle army composed of the Grand Duke of the South's own legions. The troll army surrounded and the goblin center army was still completely annihilated after holding out for an hour. Yali Azeba refused to break out of the siege until he died in battle. Because he knew that after losing this battle, the entire Duchy of Azeba would be taken over by the trolls, and he would rather die in battle than be a fallen man. The truth was as he expected. After the defeat of the gnomes' Southland Legion, the troll army drove in and quickly occupied the western part of the Southland, such as Movella, Acarido, Inburn and other big cities in the Southland. Finally, the army marched under the city of Azeba. Mando Azeba, the son of Grand Duke Yali Azeba, refused to surrender. The trolls sent an army to attack the city, and seven days later. The city was broken. Alden Bloodaxe declared a massacre and did not seal his sword for three days! As a blood sacrifice to the god of killing! The entire city of Azeba, the largest city in the southern border of the Goblin Empire, within three days, nearly one million Goblins were slaughtered, shocking the continent! After hearing about the battle, the Goblin Emperor Wieland Amiguel of Proadas Palace was shocked and furious, and even scolded the Grand Duke of Azeba for being a waste of space, and hurriedly dispatched the Praetorian Guard south to garrison the Amber River! The guards gathered the defeated soldiers and stationed them in the north of Amber River. This time, the goblin army is smart, solid defense. Even if the troll army wanted to detour, they only stationed in the important cities. After a few attempts, the troll army didn't dare to go deeper, and left a part of their army in the south of the Amber River, then withdrew their army. As a result, the southern border, the entire land south of the Amber River was occupied by the Troll Kingdom. The territory of the Goblin Empire shrunk again. ...... Goblin Empire Calendar 2145. Alden Bloodaxe moved the capital to Azerba City and renamed it Baru City, the city of the Troll King. 2155 Year of the Goblin Empire Calendar.

The Grassland Royal Court army marched south, the Troll Wolf Cavalry and the Human Golden Lion Knights were the vanguard, winning all nine battles and spreading their fame throughout the world. The Southern Troll Kingdom attacks Amber River to the north as promised. May. The Grassland army attacked the northern city of Yobud, and the commander of the northern first legion, the goblin legend Rigor, was killed in battle. After the defeat of the northern army, the prairie army drove forward and consecutively conquered the northern cities of Haros, Melanson and Bolek. Finally, the army stopped at Mohandel, north of Galso. The goblins hastily deployed the West and East Realm legions to the north. This time, the steppe army was not prepared to make a buck and leave. The weakness of the Goblin Empire and the results achieved by the Troll Kingdom in the South Realm made Behemoth Great Khan Edson Amunde believe that the northern lands of the Goblin Empire that had already been captured were now in the hands of the Grassland Royal Court. After the Goblin Empire's northern support army arrived in Garso and Mohand, it ultimately failed to recapture the lost territory and had to establish new border defenses along the Ars River in the central part of the Northern Realm. The map of the two countries is tentatively finalized. ...... Goblin Empire Calendar 2168. For the outstanding contributions of Reinhardt's human knights and troll wolf cavalry, Edson Armond grants Polec Collar to the Reinhardt family, and Harrows Collar to the troll's Trollwolf Clan. The Melanson Collar was then placed under the direct authority of the Behemoth Royal Court. 2169 years of the Goblin Empire calendar. Just before dusk. The earth was illuminated in a golden color. Nearly a thousand human knights clad in armor entered the Bolek Territory holding three banners high. On one side was the banner of the Golden Lion Pride. On one side was the banner of the Roaring Behemoth. On one side was the banner of a white gold moon. They symbolized the Reinhardt family, allegiance to the Steppe Court, and the White Gold Moon faith, respectively. And on their back cloaks, they both bore the golden lion pattern of the Reinhardt family. They were the Golden Lion Knights of the Reinhardt family that had shaken the steppe and the northern realm, and had gained great fame in the southward battle! In the second year after getting the Behemoth Royal Court to enshrine Bolek as a territory. Reinhardt's contemporary head of the family, Wendell Reinhardt then took the family's elite, the Golden Lion Knights westward to the fiefdom. They didn't head to the Goblin Castle in the south of Polec's territory, but instead came to the north of Polec, to the ruins of a castle that had long been deserted. When the sound of neat hoofbeats resounded on this deserted land, the beasts were all frightened and the birds flew in unison. After many years. The human race had finally set foot on this ancestral land once again. All the human knights could not help but burst into tears as they stopped their horses in front of the castle ruins. Wendell Reinhardt, on the other hand, took his two sons and rode his horse to the back of the castle ruins to a small hill. Here they dismounted and walked up the hill, which was already overgrown and overgrown with weeds. Wendell Reinhardt and his two sons drew their long swords and cut down the bushes that stood in their way, and finally came to two old, desolate tombstones. The two tombstones were already half buried, their stone bodies covered with cracks. Wendell Reinhardt carefully pulled the two tombstones out of the earth and wiped them clean with his clothes, revealing the writing on them. 'Reinhardt, the second human leader, the king who laid the foundation of the human race." 'Leader of the original Human Race, ancestor of the Reinhardt family, Imperial Consort of the Goblin Empire, and the last remnant of the Human Race, Fiona! --- A guilt-ridden sister!" Reading the handwriting on the two tombstones, Wendell Reinhardt, his heart filled with guilt and excitement, gently stroked the two tombstones and sighed. 'Ancestors, do you see, we have finally returned." 'We fought our way back! Those goblins who expelled us back then have paid the price in blood!" Saying this, he greeted his two sons. 'Mander and Charlemagne, this is the grave of our clan's ancestors. Kneel with me and kneel to the great ancestors." 'Yes, father!" The two sons obeyed and knelt down to pay their respects. 'As I read the records passed down by my ancestors, when Ancestor Fiona died, Ancestor Reinhardt planted a laurel tree in front of her grave to honor his guardian mother. Unfortunately, long years have passed and the laurel tree is gone and overgrown with weeds." Wendell Reinhardt sighed and turned to his two sons. 'In the future, which one of you would like to, replant a laurel tree here, and keep guarding it?" The two brothers looked at each other and both guessed the meaning of their father's question. The Reinhardt family had been on the grasslands for nearly a thousand years, and had long since developed the tradition of the youngest son keeping the tree. Under the light of the setting sun. Looking at his brother Charlemagne's encouraging eyes. Brother Mander looked up at his own father and said earnestly. 'Father, I am willing to plant a laurel tree here and guard it for generations." 'Good, Mande. Since you are willing to take on this responsibility. Then the Polecollar, will be ruled by you, are you willing to accept this heavy responsibility." 'I am willing, father!" Mande Reinhardt firmly said. Wende Reinhardt smiled in relief, then stood up and looked down on this plain from the small hill. 'From today onwards, this hill is our clan's forbidden land, managed by the Reinhardt clan for generations." 'Mander, you will guard this hill and Polec's territory. Since we have recaptured it, we cannot afford to lose it again!" 'Yes, father." Mande Reinhardt nodded heavily. The remaining light of the setting sun spilled over the earth one last time until it sank into the sky. In the sky, two dazzling bright moons appeared in the dome of the sky, a golden and a silver light spreading over the earth. Wendell Reinhardt tilted his head up to look at the white and gold moon in the dome of the sky and smiled at his two sons. 'My sons, do you know the origin of that white gold moon in the sky and the Reinhardt family?" The two brothers looked at each other and opened their mouths to reply. 'Father, the White Gold Moon, is the faith of my Three Forks River People, and the faith of the Reinhardt Family!" 'He is indeed our faith, but there is another thing that you do not know." 'However, since Mander is about to inherit the Bolek Collar, let me tell you in advance, what concerns the Platinum Moon is the greatest secret of my Reinhardt clan!" Wende Reinhardt thrust his sword into the earth, stood with his hands behind his back, looked at the bright white gold moon in the sky, and said softly.
