After Andre was captured, the orc legions on the outskirts of the Sun Flame Tower lost their core commander and were forced to retreat to the pants clan's lair like a swarm of headless flies.

The siege crisis, which lasted for many days, was temporarily lifted.

There were originally 50,000 defenders in the Riyan Tower, and then Gladstone transferred nearly 100,000 sword-wielding knights, although it was not the strongest army, but no matter how it was said, it was also the garrison of the royal city!

Later, Princess Leah and Chen Feng personally led 80,000 forbidden troops and Templars to support.

The Praetorian Army is the Royal Palace Guard, and the Templars are the Papal Guard, both of which are claimed to be the strongest troops in the entire Monty Kingdom, and each of them is the king of the hundreds of soldiers.

So far, there are 230,000 elite knights in the city, in addition to 1.2 million civilians and slaves.

They can also take up arms and fight when necessary.

There is also a small part of fertile land in the west of the city, which can provide grain, and Riyan Tower is a big city for farming, and there is plenty of grain to store, so there will be no shortage of food in the short term.

Even if Andre wasn't captured, he would be foolish in his dream if he wanted to capture the Tower of Sunflame with two orc legions.

"Inform the beta city lord of Whale Fall Island and ask them to block the strait, and we will catch turtles in the urn after eating. ”

Everyone was busy eating, and Gladstone suddenly said coldly, "The 120,000 troops of the Li tribe have gone straight to the rear position, and it's time to free up the effort to clean them up." ”

"I haven't been able to get a battle report these days, and it stands to reason that they should have arrived at the Sunflame Tower a long time ago. ”

If Gladstone hadn't mentioned it, Alexander would have forgotten about the Li.

"What do you mean by that? Satan hasn't arrived at the Tower of Sunfire yet?, are they turning around and attacking the royal city of Monty?" Gladstone looked stunned and hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks, "The royal city is our foundation, and it must not be lost. ”

"Please Gladstone City Lord to eat with peace of mind, the Li tribe failed to reach the Riyan Tower smoothly because I left 40,000 forbidden troops outside the city, and the original fortification held back Satan's attack.

Moreover, there are 80,000 forbidden troops and a group of high-level magicians in the temple of Monty in the royal city, as long as Satan is not sick in his brain, he will not rush outside the royal city to die. ”

When he rescued Gladstone, Chen Feng had already fired a signal flare to make Greenland withdraw his troops.

"There are open plains outside the city, which general can actually use 40,000 knights to stop several times the enemy?"

"It's Greenland, the Frost Witch" ......"

"Nonsense, what a mess, wasn't Greenland imprisoned by me in the Shenglan Academy of Magic? she is not allowed to take half a step for life, she is a guilty body, Chen Feng, how can you entrust such a heavy responsibility as commanding the army to the witch of the orc clan?"

Hearing Greenland's name, Gladstone burst into a rage and interrupted Chen Feng's unfinished words.

"Uncle, don't be angry, after you left, a number of magicians attacked the dormitory at night, thanks to Greenland's help. Leah knew that Gladstone didn't trust Greenland, who had served the orcs, so she quickly defended her.

"Anyway, she is a witch, slaughtered a city, her hands are stained with the blood of our fellow Terrans, and she cannot be forgiven in any way, I didn't kill her because of the face of His Highness's intercession with Mani, and replaced the death penalty with a lifetime imprisonment, but now she has escaped. ”

"At that time, the situation was urgent, and only Greenland could take on the heavy responsibility of resisting the Li people, and in the end, it turned out that my choice was right, and without her, it would be difficult to stop the Li attack.

If we attack on all fronts and go out of the city to rescue you, then the defense will be empty, and Satan only needs to attack the city to ensure that the city is broken. ”

Chen Feng calmly told Gladstone what was at stake.

Greenland is guilty, but she's trying to clear her name, and if it weren't for the Pope's misjudgment, she wouldn't have ended up in the nest of the pants industry. ”

"Recall her, take back her military power, and send someone to detain her back to the royal city of Monty, and imprison her in the Shenglan Magic Academy. ”

Gladstone was angry when a knight hurriedly arrived.

"Returning to the commander, a large number of orcs have been found at the southern end of the city, and they have already arrived in the city. ”

"Look, what did I say? The witch is reliable, the sow can climb the tree, she has taken refuge in the orcs, and now she is leading the Li army to attack the city. ”

"Surrender is unlikely, and I can vouch for her, 40,000 knights in the unsheltered plain, against an army of 120,000 orcs with elephant cavalry, most likely defeated. ”

Thinking of this, Chen Feng didn't care about Gladstone, and hurriedly ran to the city tower, wanting to know if Greenland was still alive?

The Li army was densely packed outside the city, but the size was far less terrifying than the 120,000, and most of them were wounded.

Apparently it was hit hard before.

At the forefront of the camp, Greenland's white dress was dyed blood-red, his hands were tied to the wheels of the chariot, the soles of his feet were suspended from the ground, and his ten fingers were pierced by lead-filled metal rods.

If your body can't touch the ground, you can't summon ice silk, your hands are useless, you can't cast a seal, you can't open the shuttle door scroll.

After that, there were forty or fifty captured forbidden soldiers, missing arms and legs, but anyone who could move their fingers chose to commit suicide.

As the elite guards of the royal city of Monty, they could not accept the fact that they were captives.

Satan has long been informed that the waterway has been blocked, and the orcs are impermeable, retreating from the strait, and are likely to be ambushed.

In addition to this, he also knew that Andrei had been captured, and that the trouser clan was currently completely collapsed, and there were no reinforcements outside the city.

Even if they bypass the strait, they will not be able to return to the Li lair smoothly, and Gladstone will definitely send troops to block the shore.

These remnants of the defeated army are no match for the regular knights at all.

Therefore, the leader of Satan ventured to the outside of the tower of Sunfire, wanting to use Greenland as bait in exchange for Andre and the opportunity to evacuate from the main city passage.

And the post was tied to the end of the arrow and spread to the city.

Satan has conveyed his willingness to remove his armor and weapons, and to exchange hostages with Gladstone after passing through the Sunflame Tower.

He believed in Gladstone's credibility and had no choice but a proper compromise at the moment.

"Impossible, this matter is not negotiable, the orc witch for Andre is already a blood loss, and now he still wants to cross through the Sun Flame Tower?"

Gladstone tore up the post and instructed Leiden and Alexander: "The Li tribe is at the end of its rope, and you two will each lead 50,000 knights and lie in ambush in the houses in the city, and when Satan enters the city, kill him." ”

"Lord Gladstone, you're going to kill Greenland by doing this. For this kind of decision, Chen Feng decisively refused.

However, the identity of the first auxiliary minister is obviously not qualified to compete with the supreme commander of the country.

What's more, it was wartime, and Gladstone's authority was higher than royal and theocratic power.

His decision, no one vetoed.

"Keep Shousuke in the attic, and let him go without my command, until the war is over. "Gladstone personally led the Guards to negotiate with Satan.

Inside the city, Leiden and Alexander were already ready for an ambush.
