Chapter 197 Siege
Vic Sword Saint is a powerful profession and an experienced general who is proficient in military tactics. It only took a day from accepting the king's orders to preparing all the troops in Sunset City to departing to MiG Fortress.
After he arrived at the Mig Fortress and met with the "United Army" sent by the "Church-sected" nobles, Vic easily led the "United Army" with his iron-blooded means and the power accumulated over hundreds of years.
So far, Vic has an army of more than 250,000. Even if these troops are not elite main forces, even if the military discipline is dispersed, even if there are all kinds of problems, it is more than enough to surround a small MiG fortress with only 50,000 "Glory Army" defenders.
The first thing Vic Sword Saint did on the first day he arrived at the Mig Fortress was to lead the army to pose as he had to attack the fortress walls with all his might.
Ladders were transported over, and castle carts made of solid wood were neatly arranged. Next to each castle cart, several big men were whispering a huge grease-covered stone into the castle cart's basket. Each soldier was wiping his own swords. The army under the MiG Fortress seemed to be ready to attack at any time.
The preparations for siege are very complete, and each step can be said to have reached the level of "textbook-like precision". Commanding such a temporary pieced together army can be well organized and even eased, which is enough to explain why Vick Sword Saint is called "The First General Dylan".
But...Vic was not at all happy at this time. On the contrary, he was extremely disgusted with this war of victory.
In fact, if you just want to break the MiG Fortress and not use the 250,000 troops, one soldier and one soldier, Vic Sword Saint alone would be enough to turn this ancient fortress into ruins. The two walls made of granite as bricks and stones are not much stronger than two layers of old parchment in front of the formal-level Sword Saint’s slash.
Faced with the sudden attack of Vic Sword Saint, the troops were tight and the strong were few. The Glory Army could not produce a formal-level strongman to guard the MiG Fortress, and......... Even if a formal-level strongman was drawn, would he be able to defeat Vic Sword Saint who had reached level 14?
In fact, if Vic Sword Saint had not ordered the slaughter of all "living creatures" to be slaughtered without discrimination, the defenders in MiG Fortress would have surrendered directly long ago.
The reason why Vick ordered the 250,000 troops to take the siege was actually more to prevent the residents in the MiG Fortress from escaping. Vick Sword Saint, who insisted on the concept of "orders are absolute", received the order to "slaughter all living people", so he would not let any poor people leave.
The Vic Swordsman, who was ready for everything, did not issue an order to attack. He just ordered the army to be strictly alert and stand on standby, and then sat alone in the gorgeous camp, closing his eyes and resting as if nothing had happened - he did not violate the king's order, but just delayed it slightly without any negative impact.
In fact, Vic Sword Saint was very reluctant to implement this "massacre" order. He was a professional in the kind and orderly camp. The gods he believed in also uphold the doctrine of kind and orderly. This order to slaughter unarmed poor people undoubtedly violated Vic's principles and bottom line. What's more, Vic knew very well that the whole thing was actually a conspiracy of the Morning Light Church, and the king had given up his responsibilities and glory as a king and became a puppet of the Morning Light Church.
But Vick was a "absolute loyal" trained by the Dylan Kingdom royal family since childhood. Even though the king's order made him deeply disgusted and disgusted in his heart, as long as it was the order issued by the "king" with his own will, he would still unswervingly and seriously implement it.
The order of the "King" is absolute!"
Vick said to himself silently.
"As the sword of the "king", I don't need to think, I don't need emotions, I don't need my own will. As long as I execute all the commands without distinction, it is enough... but... Is it still so sad?"
Vic lowered his head and gently stroked his hand, and was given by the seventh king of Dylan's Kingdom, symbolizing "absolute loyalty" and "the Feng Punisher" for a long time.
He did not attack MiG fortress the first time because he knew that the kind princess was on the way - Terrelinka must be on the way.
"A kind princess, lead your guards to create the so-called miracle and pierce my head with a poisonous blade. Perhaps being cut by justice as an evil killer is the only way I can embrace kindness while "loyalty".
Vic looked at the firm face of his own projected on the side of the giant sword, muttering to himself in a low voice.
————————————————
At this moment, just as Vic Sword Saint was immersed in sorrow, Princess Terrelinka was rushing from Dunke to MiG fortress. After a long journey, her hair was flowing in the wind, and her sweat wet almost all the leather on her armor.
Behind the princess' horse, two figures of a man and a woman followed closely. They were the only two formally-level strong men under Princess Terrelinka who could follow at any time - the consul Aix and the maid Naya.
"His Royal Princess Terrelinka, this is a trap, a trap arranged by the despicable Dawn Church. Vic Swordsman probably has set up a net of heaven and earth in MiG fortress waiting for you to pass..."
Consul Aix said anxiously while running, but his words were quickly interrupted by the princess.
"I know, of course I know that this is the so-called massacre to lure me into the trap, but what about that? Should I let my people be killed and remain indifferent?"
Princess Terrelinca said loudly with red eyes, and she wiped the sweat and tears from her face with her hands, showing an unswerving and determined expression.
"Vic Sword Saint is not a bloodthirsty man. I know him very well. He is loyal to the country and the royal family than anyone else. I will tell him that all this is the conspiracy of the Dawn Church, and I will convince him to fight for the true glory of the kingdom."
"Your Highness the Princess..."
What else does Aix want to say? He wants to say that Princess, you don’t know Vic Sword Saint at all. He is loyal to the royal family, but he is unreasonable. How could such a foolish and loyal person be convinced by a princess who is defined as “rebellious”?
But Aix knew that the princess now could not listen to anyone's words, and convinced Vic that the Sword Saint was already the last hope of the Glory Army and the last straw in Terrelinka's heart. A person who was about to drown in despair would not think or dare to think about whether this straw was effective.
So even if Aix is very eloquent, he can't persuade someone to pretend to be asleep, not to mention that he doesn't have any good eloquence yet.
Looking at Princess Terrelinka's thin figure riding on the horse, Aix could only sigh heavily and stop saying anything more.
He silently looked at Naya who was walking with her next to her. Both of them saw the same will in each other's eyes - in any case, even if they wanted to confront the rumored terrifying Vick Sword Saint, they would still have to save the princess's life and the last hope of the Dylan Kingdom.
