At this time, in the Rosegg Fortress on the other side, General Rosen had just greeted one of the human armies that came to join. Rosen was still a little panicked in this battle. After all, the enemy troops did have a lot of troops, but after receiving
Rosen was somewhat reassured by the news that 80,000 reinforcements were coming. In his opinion, although the enemy's offensive was fierce, the combined defense of the fortress with 150,000 defenders should be foolproof.
In recent days, reinforcements have begun to arrive in batches. Although the 50,000-strong army sent by the main city has not yet been deployed, it seems that the number is sufficient for now. After all, it is a 50,000-strong army, and it will definitely be organized.
It will be slower, but it will arrive within ten days, and it will be really stable by then.
The troops he greeted at this time were troops from the Meloway family, and yes, the person leading the team was Gasain Meloway. Of course, he had never seen this newly appointed Duke of the empire before. As the commander-in-chief of the fortress,
In fact, he didn't need to come out to greet him, but Gasain has been really popular recently, not only in terms of royal favors, but also in the previous battles with the Yetis Empire, Gasain also seemed to have good military exploits. Such performance is also worth it.
He came to greet him personally.
And of course Gasein here also wants to make friends with this veteran who has been stationed at the border of the empire all year round. Rosen's name is very loud in the imperial military circles. As a warrior, Gasein also admires this old general. Seeing him in person
When I came out to greet him, I was flattered.
Both parties wanted to make friends, so the conversation was very pleasant. However, at this moment, Rosen's adjutant hurried over: "General, there seems to be a little commotion in the enemy's military formation. I don't know what happened.
thing."
"Commotion?" Rosen was a little surprised, but it was indeed a bit strange. The orcs' offensive in the past two days was very fierce, and they often attacked their fortresses regardless of the cost. Rosen originally thought that today would be an extremely fierce battle, but the strange thing is that
The opponent actually didn't launch an attack today, so he had time to greet Gasain. This is indeed strange.
Of course, the reason why the orcs were unable to launch an attack was because they had discovered that the human race might send a surprise attack force to take a detour, so they suspended the attack. However, the current situation is naturally more complicated.
"Come and take a look with me?" Rosen said to Garsain next to him.
"Yes, General." Garsain said immediately.
The two of them immediately arrived at the watchtower of the fortress. The Rosseg Fortress itself was located on a relatively high ground, and it was condescending, so what could be seen was far away. At this time, there were camps of the orc army outside, with more than 200,000 troops.
, the camp stretches for more than ten miles, and from here, we can indeed see signs of some disturbance in the orc camp in the rear to the west, but the specific situation is not clear.
"What do you think?" After careful observation, Rosen asked Gasein who was following him. At this time, some other generals also received the news and rushed here, but Rosen only asked
He came to Garsain, obviously wanting to see the level of this young general.
"There are only two reasons. One is a conspiracy, pretending to be chaotic, trying to seduce us into action; the other is... something unexpected happened." Gassen said.
Rosen nodded, and Garsain gave a satisfactory answer. There were indeed only these two situations, but the question was...which one was it? Rosen decided to listen to his opinion, so he asked: "Which one do you think it is?"
"I can't tell," Garsain said immediately, "but you'll know once you try."
"A try?" Ron was stunned for a moment.
"Yes, although I don't know what the situation is, what if something really happens to the orcs? This may be an opportunity given to us by the God of Light. If we can seize it, we may be able to defeat the enemy head-on.
troops."
"But what if..." The adjutant next to him was about to speak, but was interrupted by Gasan.
"Don't worry, I know this may be a treacherous plot by the enemy, so I said to try it first, send a force to try to attack first, see how the enemy responds, and then make a judgment. If it is a treacherous plot,
, our losses are not very big, if there is an opportunity, we can seize it in time." Gaseon said, "Sir Rosen, I am willing to lead my troops out of the city to attack the enemy."
"What?" Rosen was stunned. "You said you would lead your troops to attack. You only have 5,000 troops here. The enemy has more than 200,000. If this is the enemy's plot, then there is no way to go.
There is no return. Once such a situation occurs, even if you withdraw with your troops, I will not be able to order the city gate to be opened and let you in."
"Of course." Gaseon said. Once the city gate is opened, the enemy may take advantage of the situation and enter the gate. Naturally, it is impossible to open it. "But since I proposed this, I will naturally implement it. If it is the enemy
If it is a cunning plan, then our loss will only be 5,000 people, which is completely acceptable. If it is really an opportunity, then our gains will be great."
"Are you confident?" Rosen was surprised. "Do you know what the riots are like over there?"
"I don't know, I just feel that if it is an opportunity, it would be a pity to let it go," Gassern said, "Maybe this is my chance to achieve something extraordinary."
If he really found out that the enemy had an accident when he rushed out of the city and seized the opportunity, Gasein would really have done a wonderful job. Rosen looked at Gasein here. This kid seems to want to make a contribution. Indeed, he has recently done so.
He has heard a lot of bad rumors about the Merloway family. In his opinion, the main reason is that the Merloway family has risen to the top in one step and was directly promoted from baron to duke. This has indeed aroused the hostility of many other nobles. To put it simply, it is envy, jealousy and hatred. Is it possible?
Is this why Garçon wanted to take the risk?
No matter what, Rosen really couldn't refuse Garsain's proposal. As he said, the loss of 5,000 people was acceptable. If there was a chance, it would be a good opportunity to defeat the enemy. The enemy pinned him down in the fortress and beat him for more than ten days.
They were holding their breath for a while. Rosen also wanted to put forward Gasein's suggestion, but the people he sent out were like death squads. Who to send was a problem. Now that Gasein has solved this problem, he will naturally
I can only nod.
"Are you sure?" Rosen asked.
"Yes, the end has been decided," Gassern said.
"Then, General Meloway, I order you to lead your troops to attack the enemy camp. If there are results, I will respond immediately. If there are no results, retreat towards the woods to the west." Rosen thought for a while.
He said that the city gate would only be opened once when the troops were leaving. If he was defeated, Gasein could only lead his troops to retreat into the forest and find a way to go back over the mountain. Of course, he would be chased by the enemy all the way. He would escape death and it would be almost impossible to come back.
.
"Yes, General." Garsain said firmly.
Following the order, the human troops immediately prepared for war. Not only Gasan's troops, but other troops also gathered immediately. After all, if there was any result, Rosen would naturally attack with his entire army immediately.
However, others are not optimistic about Gasein's intention to leave the city to attack the enemy. Yes, most people are willing to die. Most of the soldiers in Gasein's army also think so. But currently, most of Gasein's troops
They are all members of the mercenary group, and the way he makes these people work for him is very simple, just throw money.
"If you follow me into battle, the agreed commission will be doubled, and the reward for killing the enemy will also be doubled. If you fall into the enemy's trick, then I will allow you to escape from the battlefield through the forest." Gaseon said.
The fact that they are allowed to escape makes the mercenaries feel that they can still do this job. Yes, they are mercenaries to begin with. In addition to the work of fighting, they also take over a lot of other work such as hunting monsters. They are very interested in marching in the forest.
They are very experienced, so if they are allowed to escape into the forest, it means they have a way to survive. According to Gaseon, attack the enemy's right wing. If that doesn't work, they can escape into the nearby woods. They will die. And the commission will be doubled.
The temptation is indeed a bit too great. There must be a brave man under a heavy reward, and this reward is indeed heavy enough.
As for the soldiers of Gasein's headquarters, although they also have doubts, they are the troops established by Gasein after all, and their loyalty is relatively high. If they are not even afraid of their lord, then they cannot be cowardly. If Gasein does not go on his own,
They would definitely refuse to let them go, but if Garsain took the lead, they would have no choice but to admit it.
Garserne quickly stabilized the morale of the army and assembled the troops. Soon, his troops gathered at the gate of the fortress. The gate of the fortress was slowly opened, and of course it would be closed soon. They would have no way out.
Gasein was the first to rush out of the fortress on horseback. Seeing the brave general leading the team, the other soldiers also took courage and followed Gasein out of the city.
"Everyone has it. Follow me and there is a military camp on the right." Gasein pointed directly in the direction of the military camp on the right and shouted.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" the soldiers immediately shouted and followed Garsain and rushed to the right.
Of course, the orc camp is still some distance away from the fortress, but there is no obstruction in the middle. As soon as Garsain's troops come out, the enemy will definitely be able to see it. If there is any reaction, there should be one right away. Garsain
He was also praying here. If what was waiting for them was a well-formed army, he would most likely be here today. However, he had no regrets and encouraged himself while riding a horse to charge.
However, just when Gasein's troops were halfway through and were about to see the result, suddenly a purple light flashed from the horizon and directly hit the military camp not far in front of them. With a loud noise, more than a dozen buildings in front of Gasein were
The military camp instantly turned into powder, and everything in front of him disappeared from his sight.
"What's going on?" All the troops who were halfway through stopped and stared blankly at the situation in front of them.
