The changes in the war situation have never been controlled by the will of the initiators and participants of the war. The war on the Western Front and the Central Front seemed fierce at first, but when the war really unfolded, the situation was very different.

In January 702, when the Sisro Empire entered the northwest county of the Tang Empire with confidence, they suffered unprecedented setbacks. The tenacious level of Ganlan Fortress and Yinchuan City supporting each other became more obvious after the Luobei two Rangers entered this area. The Sisro people discovered that although they exceeded the Kamans in total military force, the Sisro army, which had not been baptized by many hard wars, was far from comparable to the Kamans in terms of combat will and combat experience. At most, they could only stay at the level of the Puer army, especially in terms of attacks, they seemed even more immature and helpless in front of the fully prepared Tang army.

The Sithro infantry were hit by blood under the Ganlan Fortress and Yinchuan City. The Sithro army, who were accustomed to field battles, realized how difficult it was to conquer the castle built specifically for strategic defense by the Tang people. The endless variety of conventional defensive weapons and new defensive weapons made the Sithro people dazzled. The Sithro people even suspected that the Yinchuan and Ganlan Fortress were the Tang army's test ground, and the Sithro army almost became the test subject.

After the two consecutive weeks of attacks cost the Sithro people tens of thousands of people, the Sithro people realized that Ganlan Fortress and Yinchuan City were purely designed and prepared defensive fortresses specially designed and prepared for their own side, equipped with sufficient storm crossbow tools, amazingly powerful thunder, a rising fire gun team, a staircase equipped with stone castle cars, unprecedented poison gas bombs, and a dedicated military and civilian defense, the Sithro people almost lost their confidence in combat.

Even the combat commander admitted that the prediction of the war process was completely wishful thinking. The Tang army spared no effort in the preparations for the possible siege measures of its own army, which greatly offset its strength. The single and rough methods and lack of experience exposed by its own side in the siege battle made its own side worse. It was inevitable that such a heavy blow was encountered. The ubiquitous Tang Rangers became the nightmare of the Sithro people. Regardless of night and day, those elusive rangers always appeared when the Sithro army was most exhausted and relaxed, and the logistics supply troops were even more devastating. Three of the four batches of transport teams were attacked. Even if a large number of light cavalry escorts were sent, it was still unpredictable.

A month later, the Sisro people realized how unrealistic their initial vision was. After realizing that it was a suicide act to attack Yinchuan and Ganlan Fortress at the same time, the Sisro people finally rationally chose Ganlan Fortress as the first breakthrough point. After paying the price of 100,000 people, Ganlan Fortress finally won the face. However, whether this was the Tang army intentionally gave up or was really conquered, the Sisro people had no confidence in their hearts. After all, nearly 20,000 Tang troops escaped from the iron barrel-like encirclement with the help of the Rangers. It was a shame that was unwilling to mention.

In more than a month, plus the losses of more than 100,000 casualties under Yinchuan City, only one Ganlan Fortress, which was almost razed to the ground, was unacceptable to the Sithro people. At this moment, they had to admit how pale and powerless the military strength that had surpassed the Kaman people now seemed. The military strength was always laid in the war rather than achieved through training. However, this lesson was too great, and it might even be described as a big mistake. They didn't even know what to do next, whether to continue such a suicide attack or wait for the Kaman people to break through in Delok?

Compared with the poor performance of the Sithro people on the battlefield in the Northwest County, the Kamans' performance on the battlefield in the Terlock was remarkable. After successfully forcing the main force of the Tang army to reinforce by the attack on Fanlin City, the Kamans' confrontation with the Tang army outside Fanlin City caused great damage to the Tang army, and the battle situation once entered a stalemate.

However, just when the Tang army won the victory on the Eastern Front and prepared to put the Eastern Front army into the center and gave the Kamans the last blow, the Sisro elite Kulem Corps, who had been hiding as the killer weapon, and the Seventh Corps, the General Reserve, finally appeared. These two corpses rushed to fight the Eighth Corps and the Eleventh Corps with the Tang Army before the Tang Army's Eastern Front joins the mid-line battlefield. Although Cheng Dayou decisively joined forces with Sang Sheng to fight Fanlin City when he noticed the abnormal situation.

The Tang army was brought out, but the sudden joining of more than 100,000 new forces caused the Tang army to suffer a Waterloo on the middle line. The Eighth Legion, the Eleventh Legion and the Fifth Legion suffered heavy blows. The Eighth Legion and the Eleventh Legion suffered more than 60% of the losses. The Tang army was forced to evacuate the Fanlin area and retreat to the Langshan line. The Kamans finally gained a foothold on the land of Derlock after paying a considerable price, although it was just a Fanlin City that almost lost its strategic significance.

The victory achieved by the Tang army on the eastern front also made the joyful smile of the Kaman people only have time to solidify on their faces. The army on the eastern front continued to advance into Yulin, Qinghe, Langshan and Jiama line formed an anti-encirclement situation against the Kaman army, which had just had time to gain a foothold in Fanlin. This made the Kaman people feel huge pressure again. The annihilation of the Puer army and the defeat of the Duon people made the success of the Kaman army in Fanlin City meaningless, and it may even become a burden. The poor performance of the Sithro people in Northwest County made Kaman coach Claudia cry without tears. The hundreds of thousands of Sithro army were actually trapped in the quagmire of the Northwest County and could not move, and even asked the Kaman army to provide them with help. Claudia could not believe that the once glorious Sithro army level had become like this.

Under this situation, Claudia was already considering whether this battle would continue. Without the help of the Poors and the Dodons, the Boyin people in the north also began to launch large-scale offensives in the border areas frequently. The northern countries of Liberia were under tremendous pressure. This battle had lost hope of victory. If it continued like this, it would only cause more of the power of the Kaman Empire to be consumed here unnecessary. The Tang Dynasty, which began to accumulate strength, would definitely use the cold winter to launch a spring offensive. At that time, Kaman would

Whether a person can evacuate the Delok will become an unknown. However, leaving with his tail in a dark and colorless way, it seems that the Liberian countries will usher in a difficult era, and the Tang Dynasty will never give up. This time, the military adventure of the Liberians, which almost exhausted all their potential, actually ended in a complete defeat. Perhaps the Kamans and the Sithro can hold on for a while, but what about the Pours and the Dodons? Without Pours and the Dodons, how long can Kamans and the Sithro last?

A series of cruel problems have put Claudia in despair. He didn't know how to face all this. The crisis that broke out in China due to large debts has begun to affect lower-class civilians. The significantly increased taxes not only made the small and medium-sized nobles angry, but also made the civilians who felt the rising prices have evolved from complaints to protests. The letters from Huacili and Knox expressed their willingness to resign, which means that the empire's political situation may face another huge turbulent period. Gomez has clearly rejected the request to resign again. The empire is also in a stalemate. What should we do?

On February 28, 702, the mainland Gregorian calendar, just when the people of the Tang Empire had not yet fully emerged from the festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival, the Kaman army suddenly withdrew from the Fanlin area without warning. Hundreds of thousands of troops completed the withdrawal from Fanlin within almost three days, so that the Eastern Front of the Empire that had just entered this area did not even have time to make appropriate reactions. On the same day, the Sithro Empire army also withdrew from the Ganlan Fortress, which had cost countless costs, and hundreds of thousands of troops also retreated from the Ganlan Fortress to Nuremberg in one breath with an almost fleeing act.

After nearly two months of war, everything seemed to be back to its original state except for the chaos. But everyone knew that a new period of change had just arrived. Faced with the joint provocations of the Liberians, Machikhans and the Japanese, the reaction of the Tang Empire would bring unprecedented great changes to the entire Eastern Continent.

As the Liberians retreated across the board, the Japanese who landed in Chengshanjiao area of ​​Laizhou were soon in desperate situations. Except for a very small number of them escaped by sea, most of them were captured under the pursuit of the Marines and the Rangers heading south from Yanyun County. The development of the deserted island in the Mawen Islands and the upcoming Imperial North Canal project will be their best place to go.
