Suldak and the magician Avid met in the teleportation hall.
Magician Avid was followed by five magicians in black robes. They hid their faces under the wizard's conical hats. Facing Suldak's greetings, the magicians had no intention of speaking.
Surdak stood with the magician Aved with a stern look on his face. Aved introduced to Surdak in a very small voice:
"Those are the elder scholars of our Astrologer's Guild. They live in the research room on the spire of the Magic Tower all year round. Even my teacher's teachers have to bow to them as juniors when they see them. I'm not very familiar with them either... I'm not familiar with them this time.
I went to the Ganbu Plane just to be able to repair the portal as quickly as possible after occupying Mukusuo!"
Surdak lowered his voice and said: "I thought you would bring some resources back to the Ganbu plane."
Avide patted the magic waist bag, with a trace of pride on his face, and whispered: "I brought a lot. You will never imagine how much support the union gave me this time..."
Archmage Morrison and Archmage Harper arrived a little later, but this time they brought twenty more magicians from the Magic Guild.
In total, the Magic Guild has already dispatched a squadron of sixty mages.
I explained some of the battle plans of the Bena Army to Archmage Morrison. Although Archmage Morrison was a little dissatisfied with Suldak's failure to bring back any resources, considering the current situation in the Ganbu plane, it is not possible for the time being.
It can only be this way.
Looking at it now, opening the teleport gate in Mukuso City Square is the key.
Only in this way will the Bena coalition forces continue to enter the Ganbu plane from Ruit City.
…
Judging from the images burned in the magic crystal, Mukuso City is much larger than Hiranza City.
Mukuso City is the only central city on the Ganbu plane. The population in the city is about 700,000. There are large slums built around Mukuso City outside the city. These slums have now developed into Mukuso City.
A satellite town of the city.
However, these small towns are almost connected to Mukuso City. The division between the city and the outside is a city wall that is fifteen meters high.
This is the center of power in the Ganbu plane. The city walls are built very high, and because there are small towns connected outside the city, it is almost impossible to push the siege truck directly under the city wall. It must be done while attacking the city.
Clean up the area bit by bit.
In addition, there are about 20,000 city defense troops in the city. The number of these city defense troops alone is equal to that of the Surdak Army...
Not to mention that there are still remnants of the Third Army and the Second Army in the city, as well as the private armed forces of countless noble lords. The total strength of these troops is at least about 50,000.
Once a war breaks out, this city with a population of 700,000 will continuously recruit militiamen from civilian areas to join the city defense army.
It can be said that even the current heavy armored infantry regiment of Surdak is simply not good enough...
The only thing Surdak can rely on is the Constructed Swordsman Group and the Mage Group. How to make good use of these two swords is the key to whether Surdak can open up the situation.
…
The heavy armored infantry regiment has set out from Hatangada town and occupied several small towns along the way. There are no walls around these small towns, and the armed forces in the small towns do not offer any resistance. Now these noble lords also
Be smart, they don't care who rules here as long as they don't rob their manor or occupy their land.
The news that Surdak's army was in Hatangada town and did not rob the noble lords has spread among the noble circles.
When passing through these small towns, there was almost no resistance. The mayors of each town even personally greeted him outside the town, and even took the initiative to give up the town hall for Suldak.
Even when a meeting of noble lords is held, all nobles are present. After all, no one wants to spend money to buy their own land.
Therefore, Surdak's heavy armored infantry regiment went northward very smoothly.
In early April, we arrived at the border of Mukuso City.
…
Gu Lu
In the military camp, Surdak and a group of officers were practicing siege on a sand table, but this time even with the mage group and the constructed swordsmen group, there seemed to be no good way to break the city in the face of this high wall.
In fact, even the great swordsman Quintus is not very optimistic about Surdak's siege.
If you want to capture a city, the siege force must be at least twice as strong as the defenders to capture the city.
Archmage Moleson was also in the military tent, but he did not participate in this military exercise.
This time he brought a magic cannon from the Bena Magic Guild, but it was one of his few trump cards, and he didn't want to take it out so early.
Although Surdak has not yet been able to find a way to break the city, it seems that the legion does not have that kind of dejection from top to bottom.
On the contrary, the officers were in high spirits and were thinking of various ways to destroy the city.
In recent days, Suldak and the infantry regiment leaders have made many siege plans. Some people proposed to use cavalry to quickly attack the city gate while the Mukusuo city gate is open. As long as they seize the city gate and hold on to the heavy
The infantry regiment arrived, and then the army could rush into the city in one fell swoop.
In fact, this idea is the most reliable combat plan, because there are currently a mage group and a construct swordsman group in the Surdak army. Both teams are good at carrying out surprise attacks. If the construct swordsmen decide to seize the city,
If you open the door, and if the mages provide support from the air, there is still a high chance of success.
However, since Suldak's army currently only has war horses and no cavalry, this siege plan has been shelved.
Some people also suggested that constructing swordsmen sneak into the city, and then when the army attacks the city, the constructing swordsmen take the opportunity to occupy the municipal square and let the magicians forcibly repair the portal. When the portal is repaired, the Bena coalition forces will teleport from
If you rush out of the door, you can occupy the entire Mukusuo.
This plan is quite risky. It almost means that the Constructed Swordsmen group will die and survive. Although Surdak can command the Constructed Swordsmen group to fight, he has no right to let so many Constructed Swordsmen die.
Another officer proposed to send a group of elite teams into the city to kidnap members of the MacDonnell family, take them to the square, use hostages to keep the Lord's army at bay, and then repair the portal.
This is even more outrageous. It is obviously intended to destroy the strong men in Surdak's army in one fell swoop.
Of course, as a combat commander, Surdak's plan is also very outrageous...
He planned to have carpenters build a wooden horse larger than a house outside the city of Mukuso, ask three thousand heavy armored infantry to hide inside the wooden horse, then withdraw all troops, and wait for the city lord's army to push the wooden horse into the city.
The heavy armored infantry is taking the opportunity to capture the city gate...
Surdak's plan was opposed by all the officers and was simply too risky.
Isn't it just a matter of risk? This is simply sending three thousand heavy armored infantry soldiers in the horse's belly into a pit of fire.
This time, Surdak gathered 30,000 heavy armored infantry, which was considered to have mobilized all the elite fighters of the Resistance Army. There were no available troops in the rear of the Resistance Army.
Arriving at various small towns along the way, Surdak did not recruit new troops.
Now when the army approached the city, it was discovered that these heavy armored infantry were a little short after all.
The camp of the Heavy Armored Infantry Corps is located on the edge of a satellite town outside Mukuso City. The camp built by 30,000 heavy armored infantry soldiers is larger than the size of the entire town.
This place is less than ten kilometers away from Mukuso City. When the army just arrived at the town, they could already see the walls of Mukuso City in the distance.
There are still many refugees who have fled here from the north in the town. Many of them are planning to work in the town. Unfortunately, the town itself has a small population and several workshops are also in a state of shutdown. The refugees cannot find them at all.
Get to work.
They also heard that there was a war in the south, so they chose to stay here temporarily.
Unexpectedly, overnight, the resistance forces fighting from the south were stationed outside the town...
A group of carriages formed a wall outside the camp, surrounding the general camp inside.
Now the second and third legions of the Lord Army have completely retreated into the city of Mukusuo, and there is not even a single bit of resistance outside the city.
The magicians on Surdak's side can also fly around in the sky to explore the distribution of the lord's army.
