Travel through time and become a member of the Warhammer Empire

To the north of all civilized worlds, there is barbaric civilization.

It should have been overwhelmed by scarce resources, backward population, stagnant technology, and ignorant policies.

However, they were able to obtain additional resources through the Chaos Portals at the North and South Poles using the Winds of Magic, and thus became qualified to fight against the civilized world of the South.

There is a war every few years, and a major one every three hundred years. The Chaos invasions suffered by Zhendan are the same as those suffered by the Empire, basically once every three hundred years.

The only difference lies in the enemies that both sides face. The enemies to the north of the Empire are the Norscans, the enemies to the north of the Dark Elves are the Huns, and the enemies to the north of Cathay are the Kurgans.

The three Chaos Human forces each have their own unique characteristics, but the most powerful of them must be the Kurgans.

The vast eastern grassland from the north of the Mountains of Sorrow all the way east to the sea is the land and home of the Kurgan people.

Since there is nothing blocking the Chaos Portal between the Eastern Steppes and the Arctic, they are also the race with the highest Chaos Mutation Rate.

The fierce Norscans are like thin dogs in the eyes of the Kurgans. Every Kurgan warrior is stronger than the Bretonnian man or even the Kislev man.

Each Chaos Human tribe has its own strengths, and the Norsemen are good at riding ships and sailing.

Although they can attack the empire better, faster and more stealthily, their attack range has always been the coastal areas and river areas of the empire.

Once they go deep inland, the Norsemen will have little fighting power.

The Kurgan people are different. What they are best at is riding horses.

Horses corrupted by Chaos are stronger and more brutal than ordinary horses, and are not afraid of any terrain obstacles.

If they were allowed to break through the Changyuan fortress and enter the territory of Zhendan, they would really be able to water the horses in the Zhendan capital, Weijing.

Similarly, not all of these Chaos humans have converted to the embrace of Chaos.

The Norse people further south would do business with the Empire, and would also become mercenaries or bodyguards for the Empire. For a very short period of time, the Empire and Norse even had a non-aggression treaty.

Although the Kurgans were more barbaric and bloodthirsty, their business was not completely cut off. At least they still established business activities with Zhendan occasionally.

Although they who live in the eastern prairie have an endless supply of magical winds and vast pastures for grazing sheep and running horses, many resources still rely on imports from Zhendan.

As for such an import and export trade, Windlow knew it just by taking a walk around the market.

The Kurgans were unable to produce ironware, tea, grain, salt, clothing, medicine, wine, and luxury goods, and had to rely on imports from Aurora.

As commodities, they sold horses, sheep, furs, and meat that they produced.

A comparison of this kind of trade shows that the initiative in trade is in the hands of Zhendan.

If trade with Zhendan was cut off, the Kurgans would be forced to go to war with Zhendan due to the lack of daily necessities.

And even in the state of war, Zhendan can control the Kurgan people's Achilles' heel through trade.

As a result, no matter how fierce and strong the Kurgans were, they would never be able to cause any serious harm to Aurora.

So, Windlow came up with a very effective analysis.

Wars are occasional, but trade is long-term. Zhendan may even have long-term trade with the Kurgan people, which must have a lot of profit margins.

At this time in the market, a plaque was held high, and several Yu Yong had even begun to maintain order.

This is not an auction or a beheading show, but a bidding activity for the entire market.

"We are now inviting caravans to Viper Gate Pass to carry Aurora goods and go to the Kurgan people's land in the north to trade. Profits will be discussed in person!"

As soon as these words were spoken, most of the crowd watching the excitement in front dispersed at once, and the remaining part was still hesitant, and finally left reluctantly after sighing.

But there are also desperate criminals with determined expressions on their faces and scars all over their bodies who are eager to give it a try.

Even Mousse, who didn't know much about business, sensed the danger.

"Going to the Kurgans to do business? You may survive but not come back alive! But..."

Her scarlet tongue licked her lips, which were either lavender from the cold or because of their color.

"I'm so excited."

Unlike the Empire and Cathay, the Dark Elves are rarely attacked by the Chaos Humans in the north. It is usually they who go looking for trouble with the Huns in the north.

They would go north to plunder from time to time, and each time the Huns had to call in demons to launch a counterattack.

Fighting Chaos Humans is the Dark Elves' favorite thing, as they can plunder wealth, capture slaves, and accumulate military merits.

When it comes to heading north, all the dark elves, including Mousse, do not feel fear, but only tremble with excitement.

Windlow also wanted to go to the north to take a look. He had never even heard of the Kurgan people before.

And the greater the risk, the higher the profit.

He immediately walked up to Yu Yong, who was recruiting merchants, and expressed his willingness to sign up and get involved in this mess.

Yu Yong was naturally very excited. This kind of business trip recruits caravans every year, but the number of participants is decreasing.

The most important thing is that the survival rate of caravans generally does not exceed 20%

Over time, no one came, no matter how high the salary was.

Two people came at once, and Yu Yong was naturally very happy. He didn't expect that he would be so lucky this time and completed the recruitment at the beginning.

He hurriedly put away the sign, fearing that the two would run away, and took Windlow and Mousse to the main defense building of Viper Gate Pass.

The person sitting in this room was none other than the supreme commander of the entire Changyuan garrison: Changyuan guard Fu Yuanshan himself.

Although she is called Dragonborn, she was not born of a dragon.

But her ancestor was the first generation of dragons, born to Biaolong Miaoying. Many generations have passed since then, and the dragon blood in her body has long been diluted.

The dragonborn identity is more of a recognition of strength rather than noble birth.

At this time, Fu Yuanshan was overwhelmed by the heavy workload and could not even raise his head.

The main force was completely wiped out in an ambush designed by the cursed spirit Ling Weilichi during an expedition. Only Fu Yuanshan himself escaped back to Changyuan under the cover of his confidants.

The northern city of Longkui Road, which his ancestors had conquered with great difficulty, had been lost. Changyuan no longer had any external defense force and had become the last garrison of Zhendan.

According to the deduction of the Five Elements Compass, the wind of chaos is surging in the north at this time, which means that the power of chaos will definitely be enhanced in the future.

The most important thing was that she lost all the Jade Crow Guards outside the Great Wall, and the vision and intelligence of the entire north were almost wiped out in an instant.

The most crucial thing is that the power of the cursed spirit Weilichi is growing stronger and stronger. No matter what the cost, Zhendan must know the information about the north.
