Chapter 680 (1/2)
Northwest of the Empire, the easternmost side of the lane corridor.
The tracks, like dragons, extend from here to the hinterland of the Empire.
The huge steam locomotive head spewed white mist and made a dull roar, with a long military line hanging behind.
There are three steam locomotives in the front and back, which is enough to ensure that the military train has enough power.
Therefore, the length of these army columns was more than 150 knots.
According to the extreme loading method of the dren Imperial Army, nearly 300 soldiers can be packed into each carriage at most. Such a military train can load more than 40000 soldiers madly.
Teams of highland soldiers with a strong smell of mutton, dressed in brand-new uniforms, wearing standard dragon scale armour forged by refined steel, holding advanced flint rifles just released from the factory, happily boarded the military line.
As soon as each military train was full of soldiers, the locomotive head would give out a loud whistle. In the roar of ”boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom.
It's not just highlanders.
In addition, the soldiers of the Republic of Gaul and hundreds of countries in the hinterland of medland were constantly passing through the Rhine corridor and marching to the south of the empire with the help of the military lines here.
Regardless of the cost, the loss and the physical and mental health of these soldiers, the multinational coalition forces, which set out from the military station of the Lanin corridor, only need to travel day and night for more than two months to reach the port of Toulon.
In the past few months, all the civilian trains on the railway artery across the north and south of the Empire have stopped running.
On this railway, running day and night, one after another, only the military train.
From the north to the south, the train was full of soldiers and weapons.
From the south to the north, the train was full of body bags.
An army column was roaring south.
In the open carriage, there were three or five highland soldiers in each carriage. In addition, the carriage was packed with gray, cyan and yellow giant wolves.
These giant wolves roared low, and curled up in the car.
The carriage was shaking badly. These wolves had never been on a train, let alone enjoyed such a long-distance train day and night.
Most of the giant wolves are a little carsick. They stretch their tongues, roll their eyes and curl up on the ground. Many giant wolves are twitching.
If it had not been for these extraordinary warriors from the wolf temple, these giant wolves would have burst out and fled.
According to the news from port Tulun, these fearless wolves are very useful in the war against abyss creatures - they are good cannon fodder troops, and they effectively reduce the casualties of soldiers.
So, there were several other top powers in the Durham Empire, and they made a deal with the queen of Highlanders, which was very satisfactory to both sides.
In addition to providing soldiers to join the fight against the abyss, the Highlanders are frantically searching for wolves on the plateau and sending them to port Tulun for war.
An adult giant wolf, even the weakest, can sell for a golden mark.
Poor plateau people... Ha ha, they have made tens of thousands of gold marks in recent months. You can imagine how many giant wolves they have sent to the battlefield!
In front of the column, on the edge of the woods, an old man with white beard, wearing a strange triangular hat, a light blue boa robe and a wooden staff, quietly looks at the approaching column.
When the army was more than a mile away from him, he raised his left hand and recited a mantra softly.
A loud bang.
