"Hey, what brother said seems to be true." Feng Yi said with a smile. "But in Feng Yi's opinion, the occurrence of this war is largely due to the selfishness of those in higher positions.

.Many people in power engage in military warfare just to add some glory to their crown.”

"Haha, what Yi'er said is that things like emotions, intelligence, and desires are not given by Heaven. In the final analysis, all of them are the result of the operation of Heaven. Even if the people in power are endlessly militaristic, with the stability of society, the population

With the increase in population, the output gradually cannot keep up with the needs of population growth. At that time, all those in power can do is to use troops abroad to gain more living space and resolve domestic conflicts.

The advantage of doing this is that you can conquer cities and plunder land, and have more resources to supply the needs of the people. Secondly, you can use war to consume the excess population and ease the resource shortage." At this point, Dugu looked a little solemn.

"The way of heaven has no relatives. The way of heaven and earth is unkind and treats all things as stupid dogs. Haha, the way of heaven is ruthless. How can one have compassion for all living things? Our cultivation, in the final analysis, is to fight against this ruthless way of heaven.

Fight against it, get out of it.”

As the three of them talked, the siege battle below had entered a fever pitch. The attackers were victorious because they were physically strong, and the defenders were victorious because they had a city to rely on. They had geographical advantages and sophisticated weapons, so they were able to hold a stalemate for a while.

No less.

However, as a result, the war scene became more tragic. During this period, orcs attacked the city from time to time. In close combat, human warriors were much inferior to the orcs. Every time the orcs attacked the city, they would

It would cause huge casualties to the defenders. The defenders would often have to suffer several times the casualties to kill the orc warriors who stormed the city.

The races are different, but the blood shed by the warriors on both sides is the same bright red. The fighting never stops from sunrise to night. The huge valley is covered with orc corpses. Under the city, the corpses of humans and orcs are already dead.

The pile was half a foot high, and the top of the city was drenched in blood.

After sunset, the orcs withdrew their troops and retreated. When the orcs retreated far away, the human side opened the city gate and sent soldiers to clean the battlefield. The corpses were buried, and the seriously injured ones, whether they were orcs or humans, would be buried.

Welcome a painful blow. There are no doctors in this world. Naturally, noble priests will not condescend to treat lowly civilian soldiers.

The difference between the practices of the human race and the orcs is that after the seriously injured human warriors are killed, their bodies will be collected and buried, while the orcs' approach is that the injured will be abandoned on the battlefield and left to die.

Live and die on its own.

Today, Duguchi collected no less than seven thousand souls, but there was no joy in his eyes. Even though he practiced Taoism hard, knew about the reincarnation of heaven, and faced the war, he still could not look at it indifferently.

"Brother, if you don't like to see this war scene, let's leave. After the war is over, we can go there and collect the souls." Ling'er understood Dugu's thoughts and comforted him softly.

Nodding silently, Dugu glanced at the silent battlefield, and returned to the human side with Ling'er and Feng Yi.

Fifty miles behind Changshi Pass, there is a human county. Now this county has become the base camp of this side's follow-up army. The kingdom commander who leads this side's army has his headquarters located in this county.

, the materials sent to the front line are naturally transported here first, and then allocated and transported to various places on the front line where the army of this side is stationed.

As a result, the originally desolate border counties became lively. Here, there was naturally a contact point for the Holy Cult intelligence system. With the talisman obtained from Qin Zhan, Dugu contacted

The deacon of this contact point and gives him a task.

This task is to collect information from all frontline battlefields, when a war breaks out at that pass, and to request the nearest rear town contact point to collect such information at the same time. In this way, Dugu can obtain information in time and rush to the scene of the incident.

Go through the battlefield of battle and collect living souls.

Under the twenty-four great passes, wars broke out in several places almost every day. For a period of time after that, Dugu rushed from one battlefield to the next every day. Fortunately, he had a cloud shuttle, so he had to rush there in time.

It is not difficult to reach every battlefield.

And in this world, because the passage to the underworld is blocked, it is much more difficult for the soul to return to the underworld after the death of a living being. This also allows Dugu to collect more living souls.

For more than half a month, Dugu was busy rushing from one battlefield to another. The war continued, and from time to time, passes were breached and recaptured by superior forces organized by the human race. It can be said that since the merger of the north and south of the human race,

In the future, its combat power against the orcs has indeed increased a lot, making it no longer as easy for the orcs to break through as before.

In the underworld of Qiankun, Ming Jia has been the happiest in the past half month. It turns out that there are not many ghosts in his underworld, and in the past half month, tens of thousands of souls have reported every day.

, now, hundreds of thousands of living souls have added a lot of vitality to this underworld, no, it should be said to be ghost energy.

It is not possible for these living souls to reincarnate now. There is no mother's body in the human world, so naturally they cannot form a fetus. If you want to start reincarnation and reproduction, you must give birth to an ancestral fetus. This ancestral fetus must use flesh and blood as a guide to transform into a fetus.

After being transformed into a fetal body, the subsequent reincarnation of the soul can be based on this ancestral fetus and be nurtured from generation to generation.

Old Man Fuxi is building a transmutation pool, but Dugu has no energy to collect the flesh and blood. It will take some time for reincarnation to start, at least until the end of the war.

The souls cannot be reborn, so they have no choice but to live in this underworld. Once these living souls enter the underworld, their former memories have been eliminated in the underworld. Ming Jia organized them and established the original Ming Village and Ming Town.

On the sixteenth day, a pass was breached by the orcs. The orc soldiers marched straight in and reached the county seat behind the pass. The human race organized an army in time and started a battle with the orc army under the county city. This was the largest battle in the past.

A massive war.

The two sides invested a total of tens of millions of troops. This battle was extremely fierce. The stars of the direct battle were shattered, the sun and the moon were dim, and the county was almost flattened in the struggle between the two sides.

The battle lasted for three days. In the end, at a cost of 7.1 million losses on the human side and 3 million losses on the orc side, the human race finally drove the orc army out of the pass.

The area affected by the military disaster this time covers a radius of more than 700 miles. In this land of more than 700 miles, almost every inch of scorched earth and blood are covered. Not only the soldiers were injured or killed, but also the civilians living in this area.

There were many casualties in the battle.

Wherever the orc army passed, there was almost no vegetation, and as many as 110 million human civilians died, which was ten times more than the number of casualties of the army.

It took Dugu two full days to collect all the living souls in this area of ​​more than 700 miles. At this time, in his universe and the underworld, the number of living souls had reached more than 120 million.

It is equivalent to the population of a small county.

At this point in the war, there are already smoke peaks everywhere and 24 majestic passes. Battles occur everywhere every day, and passes are often breached.

If a pass is breached by the orcs and their troops are allowed to advance straight forward, then the people behind it will inevitably suffer the fate of being devastated.

Fortunately, since the first pass was breached by orcs, and the people behind it were brutally slaughtered, many people in the border areas moved to the south. Therefore, even if the pass was breached by orcs from time to time, hundreds of people behind the pass were killed or injured.

It's much less than before.

Of course, this one is much less, but it is not as miserable as the first time. In this world, in this era, people depend on the land. As the saying goes, it is difficult to leave the homeland. In addition, many people are lucky and can make up their mind to leave.

, is just one part of them. The people who left may only account for half of the people living there.

Therefore, as the bandits entered the country again and again, the casualties among the people continued to be tragic. In the following month, the number of living souls in Dugu's underworld had reached 300 million.

When the beast soldiers broke through the pass, the human side needed to fight with three times the force to draw a draw. However, if they relied on the pass to defend, they could hold out with three times the force. Therefore, the war continued for months, and overall the losses of the two armies were roughly equal.

.

The living environment of the human race is much better than that of the orcs, so the probability of population reproduction and survival is several times greater than that of the orcs. Over countless years, the base of the human race has been dozens of times greater than that of the orcs.

, although it is said that all the orcs are soldiers, but with such consumption, the orcs are the first ones who cannot afford it.

Another month later, when the depletion of both armies had exceeded 100 million, the orcs had decided to send out an army of cultivators to resolve this war.

Similarly, on the human side, as early as half a month ago, the team of cultivators had already gone to the front line. Dugu Xiong and Qin Zhan, with the elders, had gone forward to a place called Lianglang Pass, a county behind Xiong Pass.

The valleys guarded by these two Lang Passes are relatively open and are where heavy troops from the two tribes gather. In the future, they will also become the place where cultivators from the two sides face off.

The county city behind it is called Dingjun City. At this time, the original main palace of Dingjun City has been requisitioned by the Holy Court. The temporary meeting hall of the Presbyterian Council is located here, and Dugu Xiong and Qin Zhan also live here.

.

With the arrival of the teams of cultivators from both sides, the mortal armies on both sides stopped their attacks with a tacit understanding. The border that had been engulfed in war before was now strangely quiet.
