Heimarian Odyssey Chapter 107: The decision of the prince
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Knight's Journey!
On the seventh day, Otis City resisted for a whole week under the uninterrupted attack of the Faustan army.
On several occasions, the city gate was almost captured by soldiers from the Lions and Eagles, but they always rushed to the supporting Iron Armored Guards in time and drove the Faustin soldiers off the city. The city wall.
It's evening, and Locke is leaning against a corner of the camp, biting the brown bread in his hand silently.
After a few months, Locke ate this kind of disgusting food that can be smashed and smashed.
With the water in the kettle, he struggled to swallow the bitterness in his mouth, and Locke picked up the spear that was placed on the ground.
Tonight, their battalion is attacking the city again. The difference is that their battalion is attacking an area of the main city gate of the West City Gate tonight.
Although the two sides have fought for a full week, Faustin has not made any substantial progress yet.
Although Prince Kensell and the Marquis of Mammon are not in a hurry, domestic pressure has already come. Otis City cannot be attacked for a long time, and Faustin bears high international pressure.
Take the Omor Empire as an example. Faustin and Charlo are small countries surrounding the Omor Empire. If the war continues to drag on like this, the Omor Empire will consider stepping up to mediate.
In the central tent of the joint barracks, a large group of Faustin’s nobles and generals were discussing intensively.
The war reminder from the royal capital, today sent through flames, another one came.
Prince Kensell did not quarrel with these ministers, but stood aside, holding a teacup in his hand, quietly looking at the battlefield sand table in front of him.
The war sand table personally made by Faustin magician, in the eyes of outsiders, is completely a reduced version of the war situation.
A big square city stands in the center of the sand table. This is Otis City.
This reduced version of Otis City has deliberately large walls around the city. If you look closely, you can even see the position of each arrow tower.
Red flags representing Faustin’s side are inserted in various positions on the sand table wall, representing the positions Faustin soldiers have attacked this week.
It also represents the weak defensive area of Otis City.
While Prince Kensell was thinking quietly, beside him stood an old man in military uniform, the Marquis of Mammon.
Tonight, the Marquis of Mammon left his main battle zone and was called here by Prince Kensell.
Although the Marquis of Mammon was a little curious about what the prince called him to do at this time, the Marquis of Mammon did not ask, he believed Prince Kensell would explain it.
Not in a hurry, the Marquis of Mammon also brought a cup of tea and accompanied Prince Kensell to observe the war sand table.
After a long time, Prince Kensell finally spoke out. "In order to capture the fortified city of Otis, apart from internal breakthroughs, only external forces are left to crush."
The Marquis of Mammon agreed with Prince Kensell's words, but he did not answer.
The breakthrough of internal force means that there is a troop that cooperates with them inside and outside. This is impossible. The city of Otis has been managed by the royal family of Charlotte over the years.
Although they have received more or less surrender from the nobles in the Royal City of Charlo, they are all nobles with little strength.
Satisfy the candidates who meet them inside and outside, at least they must have the strength of a thousand-man brigade, and none of the nobles who have shown them meet the conditions.
As for the crushing by external forces, let alone the fact that Faustin currently has only a few available soldiers in Charlo, and there is no way to support it in the country.
It is the defender regiment of the Marquis of West Asia. Over the years, the soldiers in it have been replaced with recruits intermittently, and veterans have been sent to the front.
Thinking of the Marquis of West Asia, the Marquis of Mammon suddenly thought that this Marquis was leading the army at Charlow at this time, and the Heroic Wind Legion is still in the north of Charlo, killing bandits.
Could it be? The Marquis of Mammon seemed to have guessed the prince's intentions.
Prince Kensell did not hide it, and said directly, "I intend to let the Marquis of West Asia lead the Heroes to participate in the siege!"
The Marquis of Mammon did not refute the prince’s decision, but reminded, "His Royal Highness, you have to think carefully, the current tone of the Heroes in the surrounding countries is not very good..."
The Lion Legion led by the Marquis of Mammon has been at odds with the Legion of the Wind led by the Marquis of Wood. But these contradictions disappeared after the Marquis of Wood died in battle.
The Marquis of Mammon is not a person with a small belly. He has only admiration and nostalgia for the old friend of the Marquis of Wood who has died in battle.
Prince Kensell knew what the Marquis of Mammen meant. If the Hungry Wind Legion, a legion with a history of slaughter, joins the war, Faustine will inevitably be condemned by the surrounding countries. In terms of public opinion, it will stand. To the downside.
"So we need to hit a hit!" Prince Kensell said decisively.
The Marquis of Mammen knew what Prince Kensell meant, that the moment the Heroic Wind Corps appeared, the city of Otis would be broken. Only when the Heroic Wind Corps appeared in front of spies from various countries and broke through the city of Otis and declared the destruction of the Charlowe Kingdom with a thunderous force, the Faustan Kingdom can frankly face the surrounding countries and even come from the sovereign state. The blame.
At that time, the raw rice was already cooked and it was useless no matter how others condemned it. Would it make Faustan Kingdom spit out the land it occupied? That is impossible.
"But once it is not attacked, the consequences will be..." Although the Marquis of Marmen is mature, but because of his old age, he is less inclined to work stably. He did not explicitly oppose Prince Kensell's proposal, but asked the prince to consider the consequences.
"No one. On the day that the Heroic Wind Corps appeared, I would bite with my teeth, and I would also bite down a gate of Otis City!" Prince Kensell threw the teacup in his hand, "Pop!" The teacup fell to the ground and broke. The voice of the prince coincided with the voice of the prince, giving the Marquis of Mammon an indomitable momentum.
The nobles in the surrounding camps who were still discussing just now, suddenly stopped the "buzzing" discussion because of the crisp sound of the prince smashing the cup, and looked curiously at Prince Kensell and the Marquis of Mammon.
The Marquis of Mammon lowered his head, thinking carefully about the pros and cons, and finally raised his head when Prince Kensell was impatient, "I agree with this plan!"
Prince Kensell laughed. Although the front-line commander is him, as a junior and young man, Prince Kensell must first receive the support of the Marquis of Mammon before he can fully use his hands and feet.
In the camp, only a bunch of unknown nobles and generals are left at this time, looking at the pair of old and young.
The night was a fierce siege by Locke and the others. After a few days of leisure, it was finally their turn to fight a tough battle. With strong armor and solid arm shields, Locke is able to handle this kind of harassment-like siege.
Yes, it's just mixed. Locke, who has been in the army for many years, has already guessed the meaning of the high-level figures 80% of the time. In addition, Angelina sent people from time to time to pass a message. As a result, Locke has been playing soy sauce in the battle these days.
Locke has never been to the head of Otis City. Other squadron captains, such as Monte, a low-level attendant, had led the soldiers to rush up twice in the past two days, although each time they failed to gain a foothold, they were repressed by the Charlowe counterattack.
Of course, Camp Kedozi is the only captain of Mont squadron, who has led his squadron to attack from a ladder. Locke did not have the same low-level attendant. Everyone thought that Locke had just broken through, and his strength was not enough, so he didn't say anything.
Only Monte knows that if Locke wears his bright yellow equipment, no matter how he attacks, he probably won't be able to break Locke's defense. That is the armor that can make ordinary people resist a smash from the city head.
Locke's current strength, coupled with his equipment, now the entire Kaidoqi camp, I am afraid that only Will Knight can beat him.
What the captain of Monte Squadron didn't know was that even if Knight Will came in person, Locke had to not use the secret treasure Angelina gave him to injure Locke.
The secret treasure that can resist the full attack of the peak-level attendants, let alone Monte, I guess Baron Kedozi has never heard of it.
After a night of **** battle, Locke dragged his exhausted body and led his soldiers from the battlefield area of Otis City.
Different from the zero casualties at the beginning, each of their battalion’s attacks will be accompanied by considerable casualties. Their cavalry squadron was no exception. Under the care of the Cavaliers as strong as Will, their squadron still suffered more than ten injuries and several died.
This is the case for their squadrons, and other squadrons suffered even more casualties. Especially for the third squadron, Hans' brows have not been stretched in the past two days.
Not only that, just the day before yesterday, Baron Kedozi prohibited the act of getting injured into the line of fire. Unless you have suffered an irreparable serious injury, such as a broken arm or a broken leg, it is impossible for the Baron to allow you to retreat due to injury. of.
Hans and Kane were very fortunate to have brought Hank down as early as the first day of the war. One is my brother and the other is the master. Hans and Kane have taken great care of Hank.
Only Locke is not lukewarm with Hank, perhaps because Locke, from the bottom of his heart, dislikes such a glib guy.
In addition to the third squadron, which suffered heavy casualties, the other squadron also surprised Locke a lot.
The mercenary team that had no casualties in the first battle and left a deep impression on Camp Kedozi and the Baron has shown their shortcomings and amateurism in the battles of the past few days.
As the war becomes more and more anxious, the casualties of this mercenary team are increasing with the times. Almost ten people will be lost every time they fight. Their reduction means that the ten people are dead.
The desperadoes who have been hired all year round have nothing to do with anything except a knife and muscles. Most of them don't even have a decent armor. In the face of fierce siege, these mercenaries without protective objects were the fastest to die.
No matter how strong the muscles are, it can't stop a cold arrow from the city. Many soldiers in the mercenary squadron died under cold arrows.
Charlotte's soldiers guarding the city are not authentic. Most of the arrows are poisoned. Without armor protection, human life is as fragile as a piece of paper.
However, these days, the casualties of the mercenary squadron have fallen again. There are not a few Faustan soldiers who died on the battlefield, and they are not unlucky, just pull them off and use them. No one will say about them.
The mercenary who licked his life on the knife didn't care about anything except money.
Locke was very curious about the leading bearded man, and had always wanted to talk to him, but he had no chance.
