This time Gervais planned to take away an unprecedented number of people, more than 6,000 people.

Among them, there are two thousand direct guards, one thousand of whom are the most elite men led by Gandalf.

As well as a thousand people recruited and trained by Awdry.

In addition, there are 3,000 indigenous sea tribesmen brought by Gervais from the Holy Bridge Castle.

Although the overall strength of his subordinates is still not comparable to other holy cities, overall this is the largest number of troops in Gervais's previous expeditions.

In addition to these five thousand people, the rest are the air force and magician teams, the medical team, and the logistics team.

"Okay then! Gervais, you must be careful! Sister Caroline and I will be waiting for you to come back!"

When Lolita heard that her thousand sea tribesmen turned out to be so important, she no longer insisted on letting Gervais take them with them.

Then, like Caroline, she said the words to wait for him in St. Ann's City.

"Don't worry! With such a beautiful wife like you here, I will definitely come back soon!"

As the saying goes, beauty grows old easily, and now that Gervais has a lovely wife in his family, he is no longer the lonely single dog he was before. Naturally, he will cherish his life more and care more about his "family".

After saying that, Gervais took his hands out of their arms, and then stroked their cheeks.

"Okay! It's almost time!"

Bo!

Bo!

"Gervis, we are waiting for you!"

The two of them also knew that they could not delay Gervais's business, so they obediently kissed Gervais's cheeks from left to right and then stepped aside!

After the two women stepped away, maid Anna obediently handed over Gervais's helmet.

Gervais took a deep breath, held the sword on his waist with his left hand, and walked towards the temple gate with his helmet in his right hand.

"Meet His Majesty the King!"

"Meet His Majesty the King!"

When Gervais strode straight outside the temple gate, deafening greetings immediately sounded in the square outside the temple.

At this time, colorful flags were flying in the square in front of the temple, and thousands of soldiers were neatly lined up.

The soldiers were uniformly dressed, all wearing black armor.

This black armor was processed in this way by Gevester specifically requested by the dwarves. Black armor can not only condense a thicker momentum, but also increase concealment.

Nowadays, other holy cities in the Holy Continent are equipped with shining silver armor. If you march at night, this silver armor will be easily exposed.

"Get up!"

Facing this loud greeting and seeing the uniform movements of thousands of soldiers, Gervais felt a sense of pride in his heart, and with a smile, he asked everyone to stand up.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the King!"

All the soldiers immediately stood up and stood in order again waiting for Gervais' instructions.

"Today, I will take you on an expedition. Under my leadership, Stormwind City will surely rise, and Eurasia will surely prosper!"

"And you will be my sharpest sword! When I defeat all enemies, that's when you will be honored!"

"Rise! Rise!"

"Rise! Rise!"

When Gervais finished his brief words, the soldiers below immediately punched their chest armor and shouted loudly!

"Very good! For the rise of Stormwind City, for the triumph! Do it!"

At this time, Ike beside Gervais quickly handed over a silver cup, which contained the hell fire wine!

"Dry!"

The soldiers below also picked up the wooden bowls that had been prepared from their feet.

The contents of these wooden bowls are not the fire wine of hell, but the fire wine of the dwarves.

The next moment, thousands of people in the square raised their bowls and drank the dwarven fire wine in one gulp!

Clang!

"Now, let's go!"

The spirits of Gervais's soldiers were very satisfied. They immediately raised their swords and gave orders to all the soldiers in the square.

This way of drinking and going on expeditions naturally does not exist in the Western world, but Gervais specially arranged it to increase the sense of ceremony.

Now it seems that the effect is very good, at least it has greatly improved the morale of the expedition.

Then, the soldiers immediately started moving.

The first to set off was Gervais' Warcraft squad, led by Gandalf as the vanguard.

Then came the rest of the direct guards plus three thousand native soldiers of the Hai tribe.

When the native soldiers of the Sea Tribe left the square, there were 350 magic teams and 130 medical teams.

Seeing that his subordinates were almost gone, Gervais also sheathed his sword and looked behind him. At this time, Caroline and Lolita were hiding in the door and staring at him.

Gervais said nothing more, just nodded to the two of them and walked down the steps.

After descending the steps, Gervais rode the giant crocodile brother directly towards the city gate.

"Your Majesty the King!"

"Your Majesty the King!"

As Gervais moved forward, people from Eurasia on the street prostrated themselves and saluted Gervais.

Gervais smiled and nodded.

A few minutes later, the group of them passed through the city gate and arrived outside St. Ann's City.

At this time, Gervais took one last look towards St. Ann's City, and then headed towards the front of the team without looking back.

…

Tap! Tap!

On a wide dirt road with green trees on both sides, a team of soldiers wearing black armor was marching quickly.

The pace of this team was uniform, and there was no noise or chatter in the team as they marched.

Gervais and his party have left St. Ann City for three days.

Before setting off, he sent people to investigate the front line here. The hinterland of the indigenous people was three hundred miles away from the nearest city of St. Ann.

This city is not big. It is initially estimated that there are 30,000 to 40,000 indigenous people, which is not as good as St. Ann City.

Of course, with Gervais's current military strength, he is actually on the weaker side compared to others.

However, Gervais has a squadron of magicians and siege weapons obtained from the Sea Tribe.

Therefore, Gervais is now confident in capturing such a small town.

Wow!

As Gervais and others were marching, a dragon bird responsible for scouting the front fell in the sky.

"Your Majesty, the aboriginal city is ten miles ahead! The gate of the city is currently closed, and there are aboriginal soldiers on duty on the city walls!"

"No trace of other enemy troops was found around the city!"

As soon as the guard responsible for spying on the military situation landed, he reported the situation to Gervais!

"Very good! Keep exploring!"

Gervais nodded. It would only take them more than half an hour to reach the ten-mile journey!

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The guard responded, then quickly jumped onto the Rapid Dragon Bird and flew straight into the sky again.

"Ik!"

After the guard left, Gervais shouted to Ike who was riding a war horse behind him.

"My subordinate is here!"

"Let everyone rest where they are and have lunch immediately. We will set off immediately in twenty minutes! When we arrive under the indigenous city, we will start attacking the city directly!"

Gervais gave the order to Ike.

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Ike immediately responded, and then gave instructions to Alec and several other personal guards.

"Send His Majesty's order to rest and eat where you are, and set off immediately in twenty minutes! We will attack the city immediately after arriving at the indigenous city!"

"yes!"

Following Ike's message, Alec and others immediately started running towards the rear of the team on their horses.

This time Gervais's team of 6,000 people traveled, stretching for more than two miles on the road.

Therefore, the current method of conveying orders, in addition to the trumpet, is to have personal guards act as heralds and rush around to tell the news.

As Acrylic and others continued to convey Gervais' orders to the rear on horseback, the entire team gradually stopped, and the soldiers came to the shade of the trees on both sides of the road in an orderly manner and began to light a fire and eat.

About twenty minutes later, the team completed the repairs on time. Following Gervais's order, the soldiers started their journey again.

…

Dang Dang Dang!

Half an hour later, alarm bells rang in the indigenous city of Shengye City, and groups of divine servant guards began to climb the city wall with weapons in hand.

"Priest Jenny!"

"Priest Jenny!"

Jenny, the priestess of Shengye City, also came to the city wall after hearing the alarm bell. The servant guards on both sides of the city wall saluted respectfully when they saw it!

"Gallagher! What's the situation? Did this team come from St. Ann's City?"

Jenny came directly to the leader of the three thousand divine servants in Shengye City and asked.

"Yes, Priest Jenny, this group of invaders is coming from the south!"

The commander named Gallagher responded immediately!

"The number of people this time is much higher than what Priest Delia said. When Priest Delia retreated last time, he said that the group of invaders only had more than 500 people!"

Jenny looked at the troops outside the city that were twice as many as her own, and felt worried in her heart.

The last time Priest Delia of St. Ann City evacuated, she had informed them of the information about the group of invaders.

In the past few months, they have not dared to relax for a moment. Today, the enemy finally arrived, but the number of enemies was more than expected.

"Priest Jenny, don't worry. These invaders look like they have many people, but I have observed that they are not strong. There are only a thousand Golden Knights!"

"And we have already transferred support from the main temple. Although the number is only three thousand, there are still three thousand golden knights!"

Gallagher was not worried about the enemies outside the city, and instead opened his mouth to comfort Jenny.

"And Priest Delia said last time that the leader of this group of invaders is stronger, and he has weird ways of luring monsters!"

"This time, as long as we strictly guard the city and don't leave the city on our own like St. An City did, these intruders will never come back!"

"Then it's up to you, Commander Gallagher. If you defeat this invader, I will definitely ask for credit from the main temple for you!"

Jenny felt a lot more relaxed when she saw Gallagher's confidence, and she opened her mouth to encourage Gallagher.

"Yes, Priest Jenny!"

When Gallagher heard Jenny's words, he immediately became excited, and then looked at the group of more than 6,000 invaders outside the city.

"Come on! We will not underestimate the enemy like St. Ann City. No matter how you cunning invaders talk, we will not leave the city!"

…

While Gallagher was waiting excitedly for Gervais to step forward to challenge him, Gervais began to arrange his troops.

Except for the logistics team and the medical team, the other soldiers have already set up their formations and are only waiting for Gervais's order to begin the siege!

Naturally, Gervais would not step forward to engage in any provocation this time.

Last time, he had insufficient troops and was pursued by thousands of elite members of the Golden Shield family, so he had to resort to this strategy to lure the Servant of God Guards from St. An City out of the city.

But this time, Gervais came with so many men, and he was preparing for an upright siege.

Seeing that the soldiers were almost in line, Gervais nodded towards the messenger on the side.

When the messenger saw Gervais's signal, he immediately ran to the front of the large corner, and then put his mouth to it.

Woohoo!

As the messengers puffed up their cheeks and blew hard, the melodious sound of the trumpet immediately spread throughout Shengye City and beyond.

"Everyone listens to the order, aim the giant crossbow at the enemy city, give it one minute, and prepare to shoot!"

Ike led a team of fifty people and had already arrived 500 meters away from Shengye City. When he heard the sound of the horn, he immediately began to urge the soldiers to adjust the angle of the fort.

"Huh? Aren't you ready to provoke me?"

Gallagher felt a little strange when he heard the horn sound outside the city and the intruders who were making trouble a few hundred meters away.

This is somewhat different from what Delia said at the beginning about the cunningness of the intruders.

"However, you may choose to attack directly to avoid wasting time. If I deal with you this time, the merits I will receive should be enough for me to transfer back to the main temple to continue my training!"

Gallagher thought to himself, then turned to look at the subordinate next to him.

"Can the bed crossbow now hit the dozens of intruders at the front?"

Gallagher felt a little uncomfortable looking at the more than 50 people messing around in that strip. He felt that it was a provocation to him, so he wanted to use the crossbow to make them look good!

But it is a pity that the distance of 500 meters has been verified by Gervais a long time ago. The bed crossbow on the wall of such a small city cannot reach it at all.

"Lord Commander, those invaders are at least 450 meters away from the city wall. Our bed crossbows can't hit them at all unless they move forward another 100 meters!"

"Okay! Let's wait until they start attacking!"

Gallagher was a little disappointed and could only continue to wait patiently.

However, he didn't know that the dozens of bed crossbows on his city wall would probably no longer exist in a short time.

Woohoo!

One minute has passed, and the short trumpet sound came from outside the city wall again.

"fire!"

As the horn sounded, Gallagher faintly heard shouts coming from outside the city.

Boom boom boom!

Just when he didn't know what the word "fire" meant, a huge explosion suddenly came from outside the city.

The explosion was so unexpected that Gallagher couldn't help but tremble.

"Asshole, what is this..."

Bang bang bang!

Ahhhh!

After being frightened, Gallagher wanted to yell, but the muffled sounds and screams that kept coming from his ears interrupted his thoughts the next moment.

I saw debris of bricks and wood suddenly flying on the city wall, and accompanied by screams, several of the God's Servant Guards were beaten with blood and flesh in an instant.

"What is this black ball? No, bed crossbow...!"

Looking at the scene on the city wall, especially the five or six broken crossbows on the city wall, Gallagher's expression changed drastically, and he was undoubtedly distressed!

It’s just that what makes him feel distressed is yet to come!

Just over thirty seconds later, there was another booming sound outside the city.

Boom boom boom!

Bang bang bang!

With the second round of shelling, seven or eight bed crossbows on the city wall were lost again, directly destroying two-thirds of the bed crossbows on this section of the city wall.

Woohoo!

And as the bed crossbow was almost destroyed, a louder horn sound came from outside the city.
Chapter completed!
