Due to the evacuation of Nils, the fighting in the city quickly calmed down, and with the deterrence of Vincent and Siyana, the western and southern city walls were naturally not lost, and the soldiers of Maiwenga City who were responsible for guarding the eastern city wall
Because of Nils' retreat, there was no rebellion for the time being, but soon they were "friendly" invited to the underground prison of the Lord's Mansion to serve as "jailers."
"Since the enemy can bribe one Maiwenga, then there will naturally be a second one." Freya's green fingers slowly tapped the table and said unhurriedly, "Even if a group of them are imprisoned, they will still be there."
There will still be a second and third batch - Lord Lord, I don't think your prison can hold so many prisoners, right?"
Lord Orton remained silent. He naturally knew this situation. It can be said that except for himself, the other city lords are just a group of people who are just a bunch of people who are following the trend. It would be fine if Sibrano didn't come. If they can gain benefits,
Even if they were beaten, they would not leave. But now Sibrano suddenly launched a large-scale attack. If it were not for the constraints of reputation, I am afraid these guys would have dispersed long ago.
"The enemy is insidious and cunning. If this sneak attack fails, there will definitely be other plans." Freya glanced at Lord Orton lightly and said with slightly lowered eyes, "This time it was my negligence and I did not fully grasp it.
The situation in the city gave the enemy an opportunity..."
"No, Miss Freya doesn't need to blame herself. I was too careless." Lord Alton said with a wry smile, "Because I have lived in Otez all year round, and seawater fills the underground waterways, so I have taken it for granted that I can't leave."
Things, so I forgot to tell you..."
"Okay, okay, there's no need to push around." Keres, the former leader of the Magic Knights, persuaded, "Didn't we successfully resist the enemy's attack this time? And among the captured Magic Knights,
I found some acquaintances, and I learned some subtle news from their mouths..."
"subtle?"
Keres nodded and said seriously: "Actually, this war was fought in a very hasty manner. Neither the food nor the siege equipment were in place. Bledino V ordered the troops to be sent. If he hadn't allowed himself
His son Niels also went on the expedition together, I am afraid others will think that Bledino V is driving cannon fodder to die."
"The food is not in place?" Siyana nodded thoughtfully, "No wonder they want to use a surprise force to capture Otez City in one fell swoop, instead of following the normal process to attack the city..."
"No, it shouldn't be that simple." Lord Alton objected, "Since there is a shortage of food, why don't they plunder when they occupy other cities? Is it just to hide their shortcomings? Or are they those?
Is the Magic Knight actually lying to us?"
Freya shook her head and said with a chuckle: "I think it is impossible if there is a shortage of food. General Keres also said before - the food is not in place, it is just that it is not in place. Although it takes time to mobilize the food,
Although the remaining grain in King Blake's granary was used a lot due to the flood the year before, it should be enough for 80,000 people to march all the way to Otez. And then they will stand still, probably waiting for the grain and grass to be mobilized from the rear.
After all, half a month is enough for Bradino V to mobilize a batch of food for 80,000 people for a week, right? In other words, the best time to attack has passed, and the place should now be in a state of sufficient food and grass.
state, and there will be no food shortage in the future. On the contrary, we are isolated and helpless. Although there is no need to worry too much about the food problem, the troops are weak and morale is low. If we defend for a long time, the opponent will definitely break the city."
Although Freya seemed to be saying depressing words all the time, Alicia's eyes lit up: "Qing Freya, do you have a solution?"
Freya pursed her lips and smiled, nodded and said: "Although it is not a subtle plan, it should be enough to give the other party a headache... By the way, before that, Lord, I heard that there is a person named 'Dead Water' here.
organization..."
The Oton Lord looked a little embarrassed and said: "Although the credit for preventing the enemy's surprise attack this time is mostly due to their containment, I have nothing to do with these petty thieving organizations!" As a noble, the Lord of the Oton Lord
I don't want to be thought that I have anything to do with those civilians - and the kind of untouchables who do shady things. Although I usually buy and sell information to Dead Water in private, it is only a private transaction after all.
"Yes, the reason why the enemy was defeated this time is largely due to these fearless warriors." Vincent, who was born as a civilian, admired Dead Water's performance, "Your Majesty, if you can, the war
After that, I would like to use part of my savings from my private pocket to honor these brave people in your name. What do you think?"
Alicia's face was still a little pale due to blood loss, but she smiled, shook her head and said: "No, I want to meet them personally. If there were not respectable people like them, I wouldn't
Sit on this throne today."
"Ah! That..." Lord Alton touched his nose in embarrassment and said with a dry smile, "I can help introduce you..."
"Hmph~ Lord, don't you know them?" Faced with Siana's mocking question, Lord Alton's face became even more embarrassed - he almost forgot that his queen was willing to eat and live with ordinary civilians.
People!
On the other side, in Count Bain's camp, a somewhat embarrassed Nils was sitting on the main seat, with smashed exquisite porcelain cups scattered around. It was obvious that his anger had just subsided.
"Your Highness, you don't have to worry." Count Bain didn't have much expression on his face. He was also very helpless towards this prince who had no city power. "We didn't put all our bets on this surprise attack, right?"
Huh? We don’t have any legendary experts here, so it’s understandable that we were cracked by the enemy.”
"But I was stopped by a group of bugs!" Nils roared with red eyes, "Those humble reptiles! If it hadn't been for this group of flies shamelessly surrounding this guy, I would have captured Ultra.
This is the city!"
Earl Bain sneered in his heart and continued to comfort him: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the other party will bully you and win. Of course it is despicable and shameless. But if we attack the city head-on, we will be outnumbered. Now His Majesty has
The food and grass turnover has been completed, so we no longer have to worry about food. In addition, the engineers I sent out the day before yesterday are almost all back today. After the location is selected to cut wood and materials, and the siege equipment is manufactured, we can start to attack the city.
"
"Hmph! I'm going to take off that one-eyed dragon's head with my own hands!" Earl Bain's words made Nils calm down a little. He touched the back of his neck, which was still slightly painful, and said through gritted teeth, "And that woman with strange strength.
