My Players Are So Fierce

The Black Disaster has been here for almost a month, yet the Klim Fortress on the southern borders of Transylvania remains quiet.

Not far from them, the people of Transylvania are building a defense line at the entrance to the Polluted Swamp at a frenzied pace.

It is said that convicts die from exhaustion there every day, but the ruthless Barbarians don’t allow them to stop working.

They even use Gnoll supervisors to watch over their work, which brings a dual physical and psychological oppression on the convicts.

Rebellion events naturally break out frequently, yet the reserve warriors of the People’s Army stationed at the Maginot Line can always quickly quell the uprisings.

Lord Kudell even sees it as a “quasi-military operation” to train these young men in terms of discipline and organizational skills.

This sounds inhumane.

But the problem is, these convicts are not locals.

Given Transylvania’s dilapidated situation, Governor Milian wishes to split everyone in half for use, hence Transylvania simply doesn’t have a “prison” system, and all those sentenced to crimes are directly sent to the Maginot Line to serve as forced labor.

50% of the convicts on that line come from the Nordtof Kingdom, with Lupa continuing the previous cunning “aid strategy,” drafting convicts into the army to be sent to Transylvania as Nord assistance against the Black Disaster.

Clearly, this is a manipulation of concepts.

But Transylvania is now short of labor, so the Governor reluctantly accepts it.

The Goldenrod people across the way see this maneuver and, besides the first batch of fifty thousand Border Defense Force members sent as aid, Marshal Loren follows suit by releasing all convicts from East Prussia and Saxon Region with sentences over half a year and sending them to Transylvania.

This group of “talents” from various industries naturally doesn’t want to work obediently, having held large-scale strikes, attempting this way to fight for their “human rights.”

The effect was remarkable!

Lord Kudell personally led 1,000 soldiers into their barracks, executing a “draw of eleven kills” as suggested by some mischievous players.

If it were merely simple violence, it wouldn’t scare this group who have meditated on their ways in the prison’s dragon yard.

They know Transia People still need them to work, and it’s impossible to kill them all.

This is their confidence in resistance.

However, with Moon Cult members appearing at the defense line, when those who wanted to resist saw the Necromancers bringing back the unlucky ones hanged into undead, sending them back to work, even those with the hardest resolve instantly faltered.

Facts prove, Transia People can slaughter them all and revive them all, perhaps making work efficiency even higher this way.

Samoyed Syria, managing the labor camp, is also a “talent.”

This “Devil Supervisor” maliciously arranged the revived dead back to their original dormitories, which made it even better!

Now each room has at least one undead member, enough to make those plotting mischief behave.

Overall, the construction speed of the Maginot Line is extraordinarily fast.

General Baldwin at Klim Fortress of Winter Wolf has been observing, practically watching that originally sparse line being built to a usable degree within a month.

But Transia People are still not satisfied.

After completing the main construction of the line, they began systematically assigning labor to dig trenches and build barbed wire positions, with artillery bought from Nordtof and provided by the Exploration Corps being sequentially deployed at specified positions.

The line seems to have come to life.

It constantly consumes materials and lives to make itself tougher and more menacing by the day; it becomes more troublesome each day.

At least in General Baldwin’s view, if he were to attack such a line, he would absolutely find it very vexing.

Moreover, his scouts have confirmed that Transia People are involved in some highly dangerous activities in the Polluted Swamp, seemingly intending to turn the entire swamp into a utilizable battlefield.

However, fighting Wolf People in the swamp?

Isn’t this tantamount to provoking the opponent on its advantageous battlefield?

This is simply unimaginable.

General Baldwin these past days has been pondering these issues, judging from Transia People’s actions, it’s clear they don’t believe the Blackflame Mountain Pass line can hold off the Wolf People, but General Baldwin personally inspected it months ago.

He believes that the Blood Clan Vampires’ built line is very solid, though compared to the terrain granted by Klim Fortress last time isn’t perfect enough, but definitely could block the Black Disaster for a long time.

It’s all due to Transia People’s stubborn actions, causing General Baldwin to become suspiciously anxious, forcing him to start considering what efforts to make should the worst-case scenario occur?

The Wolf People cannot break Klim Fortress, they can only push forward deep into Transylvania, attempting to invade the Kafuhoka region from the Bataxin City line in the center, which is also the advance route of the King of Bone Biting back then.

This time, regardless of quantity or quality, this troop of Wolf People can hardly compare to the army of the King of Bone Biting.

Even if they manage to conquer the Blackflame Mountain Pass, Polluted Swamp, and Maginot Line, truly entering Transylvania would absolutely be a struggling-force.

Then, leading the Winter Wolf Army, cooperating with Marshal Loren from the Golden Flower side, he can defeat the vanguard of the Black Disaster within Transylvania’s territory.
