The fact was just as Ronan expected. In the afternoon, after Ronan woke up, he found a relaxed atmosphere in the city. After grabbing a person and asking, he found out that Volantis had withdrawn its troops at noon when they were cleaning up the camp.
That should be the case. Judging from the casualty ratio last night, it is not impossible for Volantis to capture the Titanic Four, but the casualties paid are too high and there is no point in taking it. In these battles, the Thai Guards defenders suffered casualties.
More than before, but Volantis lost more than three times the number of people. What's the use of not having enough power to defend the city after taking it.
Moreover, Volantis would have to fight Terra in the future. Even if they defeated Terra, they would still have to guard against the eredar, so they were unwilling to pay more casualties.
The people in the city were relaxed, but Ronan knew that things were troublesome. Volantis' retreat could never be a sign of giving up the invasion. The only possibility was that Volantis and the Eredar were both involved in the siege.
Wall, so finally decided to cooperate to attack a city.
But no matter which city they choose to attack, I'm afraid it won't be easy to defend, but it won't be the Tyrannosaurus, otherwise Volantis wouldn't have withdrawn.
In the evening, Rexxar called everyone for a meeting again. Bamba, Terra's former commander, died in the last battle, and his replacement is now his former deputy, Fabuti.
Inela was still sitting next to Ronan with a cold face. Ronan smiled at her. She glanced at Ronan and turned away without responding. After everyone arrived, Lexa spoke:
"Volantis withdrew, but scouts reported that they had reunited with the Eredar. I don't know what they will do next. Moreover, they hired a group of exiled tribes, the Mountain Clan and the Snow Bear Clan. Xutlan
The second batch of support troops dispatched is already on the way, still 1,500 strong, led by Count Sirabi, the "Blood Sword".
And in order to deal with the mercenaries recruited by the enemy, the King of Terra paid a large sum of gold coins to recruit mercenaries in the Yasluo continent. The commander of the third support force, Master Modu, was responsible for this matter. The mercenaries recruited
Will arrive in Terra with the third support force.
We may evacuate Phytophthora at any time, so everyone must be prepared."
In the next few days, the situation changed. Rexxar continued to receive messages from the Long Eagle from the city of Terra. The Long Eagle is a messenger bird specially raised by Terra. It is not large in size and is smaller than a pigeon. The most important thing is that the Long Eagle is a messenger bird specially raised by Terra.
They are more spiritual, more endurance, and faster than pigeons, and they can fly very high and are not easily intercepted.
The Volantis army has indeed joined forces with the Eredar, and the support troops and hired exile tribes from both sides have also arrived. The so-called exile tribes refer to those clans that originally had city-states that were defeated by the enemy and lost the cities they relied on for survival.
and land, they could only live in exile on the mainland, obtaining survival supplies by plundering caravans and fighting for other city-states.
Both Gaoshan and Snow Bear can be regarded as the largest exiled tribe in Slovakia. They also had their own cities back then and were not weak in strength. However, they finally fell under the iron heel of the Seljuk invasion and could only wander on the mainland.
, dreaming of one day regaining possession of their own city.
But generally, exiled tribes would not get involved in disputes between big city-states, because no matter which side they were in, they couldn't afford to offend them. They didn't know what benefits Volantis and the Eredar had given them to let them give it a go.
After all the enemy forces had gathered together, they had besieged Terra. The greatly increased strength of the Volantis and Eredar coalition forces was no longer something that Terra, which had a small number of troops after dividing its troops into various acropolis, could defend, so Terra decided to give up.
To defend Taipai Si, all the defenders of Taipai Si moved to Taipai III, which is closest to the city of Terra.
As for Taiwei 2, they can only resign themselves to their fate. If they cannot defend until the Xintran reinforcements arrive, then they can only pray that they can cause greater casualties to the enemy. But just as the Taiwei 4 defenders withdrew.
The day before, in Terra City, a team quietly left Terra City under the cover of night.
In the early morning, the defenders were transporting supplies and ordnance. Ronan and the leaders of the clans were already ready to go. Although the enemy was attacking Taiwei, they would inevitably not send troops to intercept them after learning about their movements. Therefore, in order to quickly attack, the troops
The march abandoned most of the supplies and did not escort the residents of the city.
But if the residents stay in the city, they will only die. If they are lucky, they will be sold as slaves by Volantis. Therefore, the residents will enter the city of Terra directly from another road. Will the road be blocked?
I can live with my fate.
The troops were dispatched, and they could reach Taiwei San within four days with a rapid march. On the third day of the troops' departure, a battle broke out not far outside Taiwei City.
It was basically a one-sided massacre. More than three times the number of enemy troops suddenly rushed out from both sides. The Volantis heavy cavalry wearing fine armor pierced the entire team like a sharp arrow, and then charged back and forth. This team
Officially a team secretly brought out from the city by Prince Takane.
In the center of the team, the officer who saw that the situation was not good grabbed Prince Gao Gen and began to take off his armor, while saying:
"Quick, Your Highness, take off your armor. Volantis will keep prisoners, but you can't let them know your identity!"
"Get up, I want to fight these bastards to the death!"
"Your Highness, you are the only heir to Terra!" Hearing these words, Gao Gen gritted his teeth, cooperated with the officer to take off his exquisite armor, asked a soldier next to him to put it on, and then blended into the group of ordinary soldiers.
In less than an hour, there were only less than 400 prisoners left in the team of 1,500 people. Geno, who was riding a tall war horse wearing a golden painted vest, walked out of the team, took off his winged helmet, and glanced around.
Circle the captives kneeling on the ground.
"Take them to Taiwei and take them into custody. Once we capture Terra, we will sell them to the north to mine for those guys." Putting on his winged helmet, Geno drove his horse back to the formation at a small trot. Their scouts
After detecting the movements of this group of people, Jino felt that there might be a big fish. He did see a man wearing exquisite armor just now, but it was among the corpses.
Jino had the body collected, and then sent an envoy to deliver the blood-stained armor to the city of Terra.
Ronan and others had just arrived in Taiweisan and heard the news before they could take a good rest. Ronan rolled his eyes and secretly thought that this prince was really a fool.
But since the prince was already dead, why did he summon them to a meeting? Although Ronan was confused in his mind and physically exhausted, he still endured his sleepiness and followed Mario to the meeting hall in the Castle of Taiweisan.
The area of Tyrone III is about the same as that of Tyrone IV. At this time, the troops containing nearly 5,000 people were already very crowded. The civilians in Tyrone III were also admitted to Terra City at this time.
