The smell of blood in his nose irritated his nerves as Sir Fred walked along the solid stone pavements of the city of Byanburg, and the scattered shouts of killing and the clashing of weapons under the dark night sky hardly ceased.

The outer city of Fort Byan had been breached by the Seventh Mixed Legion, and all this seemed like a dream to Fred, after all, more than ten hours ago, he was still worried about the future of all the officers and men of the Seventh Legion.

Two hours ago,

After receiving the message from the city through a small teleportation device set up in advance, Sivin Danzer immediately asked Fred to gather his troops and wait at the south gate of Byanburg.

An hour earlier, the south gate of the outer city of Birneburg had slowly risen amid shouts of killing.

Now, the 7th Mixed Legion has captured almost the entire outer city, and the orcs are retreating in the direction of the inner city...

However, the orcs' plan to retreat did not go well, as their troops encountered the thousands of 'natives' of the Byan Territory who were fleeing to the outer city as they passed through the only street leading to the inner city.

This is not an accident, this is the method that the members of the 'Radiant Force' organization thought of after the orcs retreated to the inner city, they planned to use these thousands of lives to stop the retreat of the orcs, and the paladins in the inner city told the cowards who were huddled in the corners of the square and shivered and did not dare to rise up to resist: if you don't want to die, run out of the city.

Of course, no one was willing to leave at first, but not all the members of the Radiant Force were merciful, and eventually, at the mercy of a few corpses and fear, these poor people were driven under the scythe of death.

The plan went well, and after nearly a thousand men fell into pools of blood, Fred's reinforcements arrived on time.

The two sides fought for nearly three hours on the pitch-black streets, and finally won by the Seventh Legion by a narrow margin, and the crowd used to intercept the orc army was almost completely slaughtered in this melee.

When the torches were raised and the neighborhood after the war was revealed to the bright firelight, even the soldiers who were fighting on this street at that time could not help but change their faces.

Red, under the shaking of the firelight, everything that came into view was red, the armor, weapons, battle flags, and the fallen corpses, the ground was red, and the few buildings around it were all red, as if even the waning moon on the horizon was red.

When Fred arrived here after taking care of the affairs of the outer city, and looked at the scene that would only appear if the legendary ghost town of hell would have appeared, he was silent for a long time and gave the order to clean up the streets.

At this time, Sivin Denzer suddenly appeared beside Fred, he looked at the army slowly advancing towards the inner city and suddenly said, "Congratulations, sir, you have made history. ”

"Are you sarcastic about me?" Fred said coldly, "do you think I'm a clown?"

"No, I see you as a winner. Siwen kept smiling, "I have Baron Pedi's latest order here, do you need to hear it?"

Fred was stunned and asked, "What order?"

Xiwen took out a letter from his bosom that still had residual magical energy, "The High Command needs the Seventh Mixed Legion to go south to attack the flanks of the 11th and 15th Banner Regiments of the Orcs, and help the Eighth Combined Legion to capture the orc garrison in the passage of the Gula Mountains. ”

Fred was not surprised by the contents of the order, and asked, "Does the High Command know what we're doing here?"

Xiwen said: "I only sent out the message ten minutes ago, even if it is a magic teleportation, it will probably take more than five hours. ”

Fred frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "I think you can definitely contact Viscount Bibirt's command directly, right?"

"Of course, if you need it. ”

Fred said: "Then contact the High Command and Viscount Biber at the same time, and report our situation here clearly... It would have been better if the information had been delivered to Viscount Bibi's headquarters before dawn. ”

"All I can say is that I will do my best. "Sivin didn't promise Fred.

...

At the northernmost end of the passage to the Gula Mountains, when Viscount Biber received the orc army going south, he led two brigades to lay a tight defensive line at the entrance to the northern section of the passage.

According to the deduction of Viscount Biber's staff, his 2,000 men could hold out for at least six hours, but for the sake of insurance, Viscount Biber decided to personally command this blocking battle.

From two o'clock in the afternoon of the 29th to this moment, that is, six o'clock in the morning of the 30th, Viscount Bibel and more than 2,000 officers and soldiers under his command did not rest for a moment...

According to the latest news from the scouts, the vanguard of the Orc Expeditionary Force will arrive at two o'clock in the afternoon of the 30th at the latest, so Viscount Biber must hurry up and build the necessary defenses.

But the most basic trimming is still needed.

So, at dawn, the ordinary soldiers were already asleep in the fortifications of the first size, and the officers and the necessary patrols continued their duties.

Standing at the forefront of the defensive line, Viscount Biber looked at the vast plain outside the passage, and sighed: "When I was young, my father fought with the Borg family once here because he was fighting with the Borg family for the fresh water resources of Jamich. ”

Next to him, Sir Parn, who was about the same age as Viscount Bieber, was by Viscount Biber's side as the direct commander of this temporary force at the moment... He had participated in that war as a knight, so he said with a look of remembrance: "It was a long time ago, and I almost forgot it for a long time." ”

"But I won't forget because it was my first fight. Viscount Biber laughed.

Sir Parn suddenly turned his head to Viscount Biber, "I remember the war... It's because we've failed. ”

"Yes, because at that time we abandoned the position we are in now, and chose to fight the Borg family on the plains, and in the end our main force was broken up by the heavy cavalry of the Borg family. Viscount Biber kept smiling, "I was almost captured... It doesn't taste good to fail, so we can't fail again here. ”

"Don't worry, we got the news before we left, the Seventh Mixed Regiment has broken through, and the High Command has sent them an order, we are not alone. "Sir Parn has the poise of a veteran, and he doesn't seem to be worried about the battle that is about to begin.

Viscount Biber frowned and said, "The Seventh Mixed Legion has indeed played a decisive role in the previous wars, but to want them to fight the orc army head-on is tantamount to sending them to their deaths, and I don't expect that." ”

"Sir Fred is a talented commander and he should be able to handle this. ”

Viscount Biber shook his head, "Even if the all-knowing and all-powerful goddess were to command an army that didn't even have a spear, he wouldn't be able to fight an orc who was several times his size and fully armed at the same time... If I had remained in High Command, I would never have allowed those fools to make such a stupid suggestion to Baron Pedy, they want to destroy Sir Fred!"

Parn had no right to comment on his boss's topic, so he shrugged his shoulders and shifted the subject, "Without Sir Fred's help, we would not have been able to hold out for six hours... If the war doesn't go well, we'll need to hold out longer. ”

Viscount Biebel said: "Although Count Bane sometimes seems very immature, he is not a fool, and if he cannot capture the orc stronghold with less than two thousand defenders at the moment in six hours, then he is not worthy of the title of nobility on his head." ”

"Looks like you're bullish on Earl Bane?"

"Of course, although he does not have a big heart, his brain is not stupid. ”

...

While Viscount Biebel and Parn were chatting, on a difficult mountain to defend on the eastern side of the Orc Garrison in the Gula Mountain Pass, in the headquarters of the Eighth Combined Legion, the sleeping Earl was woken up by Sir Edwin.

The merchant nobleman had an unexpected piece of information for Earl: Fort Byan had been captured by the Seventh Mixed Regiment at around one o'clock in the morning!

The young Earl was overjoyed, even excited, when he first read the information, but soon he was plagued by endless worries.

The question of Birnburg's fate was his biggest concern.

"That's a good thing, my lord. Sir Edwin wasn't too worried.

"But..."

"Sir Fred will not get his hands on Bironburg, let alone the Seventh Mixed Legion, for they are not capable and have no one to support them. Sir Edwin said with a smile, "So, this is not a bad thing for us, and you can send your most trusted assistant to take over Beeenburg now, as the ruler of Beenburg." ”

"But the road to Birneburg has long been cut off. ”

"It's just that the official road has been cut off, and if there is a small number of people, there are three routes that I know alone. The smile on Sir Edwin's face grew stronger.

"Those smuggling routes?" said Earl, staring thoughtfully at Sir Edwin, "but as far as I know, these routes have always been in the hands of a group of mountain bandits. ”

"Those bandits have already joined your army..."

"Are you kidding?" said Earl Jack rising from his seat.

"What are you worried about, my lord, they are now soldiers of the Empire, and even the troops recruited by His Majesty the Emperor have mountain bandits, let alone a small place like ours? They can help you retake Birnburg. ”

Jack's eyes narrowed slightly, and he thought for nearly five minutes before he said, "My Captain of the Guard, Knight Ferro, and Baron Styan, the Captain of the Knight Guard, will go with him. ”

"Of course, there's nothing wrong with that. ”

"Until I return to Beenburg, Baron Styrian will manage everything in Been's place for me. ”

"This is what we decided before, and I and my people have no opinion. Sir Edwin looked like a generous philanthropist at the moment.

Jack had a satisfied look on his face, but he was already secretly on guard in his heart, and after repacking the information and returning it to Sir Edwin, he said, "Now, you can send this information to the location of Viscount Biebel as quickly as possible." ”

Sir Edwin took the envelope respectfully, but he was not in a hurry to leave, "Actually, I think we should have a good talk about it. ”

"What's the problem, Viscount Bibi's?" Jack was stunned.

"Of course, this old man is the biggest obstacle to your recapture of Beanburg..."Sir Edwin's voice became smaller and smaller, and he looked at's puzzled expression before explaining: "Of the four most authoritative families in the entire Crewe Territory, the Earl of Bane of Herienburg is your sister's husband, and he should be on your side, but he has just inherited the title of Earl, and is planning to deal with his own problems after establishing enough prestige in this war, so his support for you is limited,

And Viscount Zerodin of the Marne family of Cowindburg is fighting for his successor and Kawalburg, and he is also powerless about the affairs of the Byan Territory, and finally there is Viscount Biebel of Harrensburg, whose credit for guarding Harrensburg in the first two months has invisibly added weight to what he said,

And the Borg family and Viscount Biber's Dunner family have a long-standing grudge over the Garmic grassland, if he says something unfavorable to Baron Pedi at this time, what do you think Baron Pedi will choose?"

"Crewe is now ruled by Duke Nick, and he will do justice to the affairs of Byanland... At the time of our withdrawal from the Byan Domain, Duke Nick personally wrote to my father and assured the interests of the Borgs. The Earl of pressed his hands to the wooden table beside him, and his eyes looked straight at Sir Edwin. ()
