"What?!" Located in the former city lord's palace of Melen City, now located in the central army command post in Siblano, Earl Bain slammed the table and roared with his hair and beard hanging, "The vanguard army has retreated?! Where is Serpusis?"
!Where are the others in Cypsis?!"
"Viscount Serpusis...has been killed in battle." The messenger responded in a low voice, "According to the information brought back by the defeated soldiers, it should be Lord Vincent and Lady Sianna who took action personally."
"Hmph!" Earl Bain waved the long sword in his hand, and the orderer's head fell to the ground instantly! The blood spurted out from the broken neck like a fountain... Sitting on the main seat, Long frowned and said nothing.
He gently wiped away the blood splattered on his face.
Earl Bain looked at this scene with a sneer - he is really obedient... No matter how humiliated he is, he will not resist. My king's decision is really wise and powerful. But this time the vanguard army was defeated, he was actually not too surprised. To be precise, he was not too surprised.
It was as he expected. Viscount Serpusis was a time bomb in the eyes of Bledino V. Although he had his title and family as threats, in fact, he was purged by Bledino V from the beginning.
On the list. However, during the purge, Viscount Serpusis was still outside with his troops. In order to deceive him into returning, Bledino V pretended to appease him and recruited him to return to the court.
The reason for arranging him as the vanguard this time is naturally to use the hands of Dong Blenor to eradicate him. Moreover, his death will not only cause no harm, but will greatly increase the fighting spirit of the soldiers under Serpusis. It only needs a little help.
By using it, Count Bain can get a team of brave and powerful cannon fodder.
"Since the two traitors took action personally, it's better for us to be more cautious." Beside Earl Bain, a general suggested cautiously. He looked at Earl Bain who was standing with his sword in fear.
He didn't dare to wipe off the blood spattered on his face, for fear that Earl Bain would behead him if he was unhappy.
Earl Bain took out his handkerchief, slowly wiped the blood off the sword, and then threw it on the headless corpse of the messenger in disgust: "Huh, just two rebels! Can they overthrow the entire kingdom? Even if they are legends
Strong ones, I naturally have ways to deal with them! Send the order! Early tomorrow morning, the whole army will set off! No need to leave any guards!"
The general looked at the headless corpse on the ground with a wry smile - the messenger had been beheaded by him. Everyone present was either Earl Bain's cronies or colleagues who pretended not to know anything. It seemed that he was the only one to go.
Acting as a "messenger".
Early the next morning, after integrating the retreating vanguard army, Earl Bain handed over full power to the general "messenger" from yesterday, and asked his troops to serve as the front army and march to the next city. Although Vincent and Sianna
A perfect raid was carried out, but only less than 5,000 people were actually killed in the retreating vanguard army. However, many soldiers disappeared or escaped during the retreat. About 13,000 of the defeated army returned to Melen City.
There were many people, plus the 5,000 subordinates of General "Herald", the 18,000 soldiers once again acted as the vanguard, clearing the way for Earl Bain.
At the same time, Siyana also received a report from her subordinates. Siyana pondered for a while, then turned to look at Vincent: "Are we going to continue the raid this time? It always feels like there is some conspiracy..." Mingming's third
They had defeated that group of guys once, but this time they actually dared to let the vanguard army act alone... Unless the commander on the opposite side is a fool, this will definitely be a trap!
Vincent nodded in agreement: "It's very possible, but our mission is to weaken and harass the enemy as much as possible before Sibrano's army reaches Otez. Even if it is a trap, we should go there and explore it.
"
Siyana nodded expressionlessly and directed the Feather Knights to take off again. Vincent also rushed out with the cavalry after Siyana and the others left.
Unexpectedly, the enemy did not set any ambush. Faced with the surprise attack of the two legends, the messenger general retreated without discipline. Although he lost some men and horses, he still saved the majority of his troops.
It can be said that this raid did not achieve effective results. In the next few days, although Vincent and Siana harassed frequently, the enemies always fled without fighting, which made the two very depressed. After using the Vanguard
After the army diverted the attention of Vincent and Siana, Earl Bain had led the Chinese army to the city of Maiwenga, which was closest to Otez.
In the past few days, Vincent and Siyana annihilated nearly 9,000 enemy troops, of which 5,000 were the results on the first day. However, in the following seven or eight days, they hardly caused much damage to the enemy, and due to Bain
The earl did not divide his troops, so his plan to cannibalize the enemy naturally failed.
However, when Earl Benn arrived at Mewunga, the city lords of the city-states originally occupied by Siblano once again led their troops back, cutting off Siblano's return path. However, Earl Bairn did not put these rabble behind him.
In his eyes, as long as he defeated Alicia and the Orton Territory, the other city lords of East Blaino would naturally surrender.
After arriving at Mevenga, Earl Bain did not rush to attack the city of Otez. Instead, he sent troops to the surrounding villages and towns to expel the civilians and drove them to the city of Otez.
Vincent and Sianna were very angry with Count Bain's actions, but every time they went to rescue the civilians, the troops responsible for expelling the civilians immediately withdrew, leaving only the burning villages and the helpless people.
of civilians.
"Bah!" Lord Alton's face was as dark as water. He slammed the table and said angrily: "These crazy people! They actually resorted to such despicable methods!"
Most of the people who were expelled to the area around Otez were civilians from the Oton territory. As a lord, he would not leave these refugees alone in normal times, but now Sibrano's army is watching behind these refugees. Once the door is opened,
If the refugees are put in, the soldiers of Sibrano will also take advantage of it. And because of the presence of these refugees, the magic cannon that Lord Orton is proud of will also lose its effect. As a last resort, he
You won't point your guns at your own people.
"No matter what, we must not let any refugees enter the city." Freya sat on her seat and said calmly, "Although I am very sorry for them, war is a war after all, and we are already at a disadvantage. If the enemy is allowed to
If we take advantage of the situation and attack the city, our final advantage will be lost."
"Freya..." Vincent looked at Freya worriedly. Although he obeyed Freya's arrangements whenever he thought about military matters, this was the first time he encountered such an insidious method.
.Compared to Earl Bain, the Kaletta people are much simpler. If Vincent's true intention is to be followed, he will naturally not have the heart to turn away those refugees, but what Freya said is also very true.
Logically speaking, once the refugees and enemy troops mix together and enter the city, even if he takes action personally, he will inevitably hurt innocent people. The best way is naturally...
"I object!" Unexpectedly, it was Alicia who raised the objection! She bit her lower lip, glanced at Freya and Lord Orton complicatedly, and said softly, "No matter what,
They are all the people of East Blaeno, and we cannot just watch them stay outside the city without food and shelter, only a door away from hope..."
"But, Your Highness the Princess... No, Your Majesty the Queen." Siana looked at Vincent indifferently, wondering that he did not object to Freya's proposal, "This would be equivalent to directly handing over the city of Otez.
People, and even if we rely on the city to engage in street fighting, our combat power will be difficult to defeat the enemy."
"I know, I know." Alicia nodded soothingly and said softly but firmly, "Rusica, bring food and follow me out of the city."
"Your Majesty the Queen!!!" Everyone stood up in horror, trying to stop Alicia's crazy move, but Alicia raised her hands slightly to signal them not to speak: "I have ordered Sibley
The people of Nuo have fallen into dire straits, and now I cannot let everyone in the Alton Territory make the same mistake again. Please allow me to make this willful request..."
"Hey..." Vincent knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice, "I am willing to protect Her Majesty the Queen."
Siana also knelt down on one knee and said somewhat dullly: "Please think twice, Her Majesty the Queen. If you really want to go, please be sure to take us with you."
Unexpectedly, Alicia actually shook her head and refused! She smiled and said: "It only requires me and Lucica. Please be sure to protect the people in the city when I go out, Sir Siana and Vincent."
resident……"
Freya's eyes flashed and she shouted in surprise: "Your Majesty, do you want to... No! Absolutely not!"
"Freya?" Vincent looked at Freya in confusion. She seemed to have figured out Queen Alicia's plan, but Vincent was completely confused.
Freya bit her lower lip and said resolutely: "Instead of letting you go out of the city to lure the enemy into action, it is better to open the city gate right now. Even if we are defeated, we still have a chance to retreat. But you go alone to test the enemy's trap, just in case something goes wrong."
, then we won’t have any reason to continue fighting!”
"Only I am the best bait, right?" Alicia chuckled and said calmly, regardless of the objections of others, "If they don't prepare any means against the legend this time, we will naturally
There is a huge chance of winning. If there is any... exposing the enemy early will also allow us to take precautions early."
Regardless of everyone's objections, Alicia asked her guardian knight Rusica to bring food and water to the refugees, and Earl Bain naturally got the news. One day passed, and two days passed.
Sibrano's silence made everyone feel a little strange - didn't the other party prepare any means? Dare to attack Otez, who has four legends, without preparing any means to deal with the legendary powerhouse? Don't they know that the legendary powerhouse
Is it strong enough to make a comeback in adversity?
