Chapter 46: The Rush to the Aid of the Royal City of Monty
News of the siege of Petersburg by the Li soon reached the palace......
There are hundreds of orc tribes scattered in the magical continent of Azerosia, each fighting for each other and not interfering with each other, among which the two largest tribes are the pants industry and the Li tribe, and at present, only these two races can pose a threat to the Monty Kingdom.
The Li army forced its way across the border to besiege Petersburg, which meant that the military demarcation line built by hundreds of magicians had been severely damaged and was likely to be completely ineffective.
It's not clear why, but it's urgent to repel the orcs and repair the defensive line.
After King Monty received the news from the frontline, he immediately transferred 80,000 elite golden knights from the Praetorian Guard, and asked the Holy Temple to send more than ten high-level magicians to help in the battle, and went to build the Mitchell defense line together.
In order to dispel the suspicion of the city lord of Gladstone, King Monty also specially awarded the position of commander of the army to Princess Leia's personal bodyguard, General Leiton, and promoted him from a five-star knight to the supreme commander.
Gladstone is the elder brother of the White Queen, which outsiders don't know, but King Monty knows it all too well in his heart, and he planned it.
As long as Princess Leah leaves the palace, there is no need to think about it, she must hide with her own uncle.
However, the royal city of Monty was a long way from Petersburg, and fearing that Gladstone would not be able to sustain itself under a heavy siege for fifteen days, had to order the 30,000 vanguard troops to abandon their armor and carry only short weapons, and march rapidly under the stars and nights, and put all the grain, grass and baggage to the end and march slowly.
Gladstone didn't expect King Monty to send troops to help, after all, the battle line between the two cities was too far to send troops to help.
And there are many contradictions between him and Monty.
The only bond that can ease the relationship between the two main cities is Princess Leah.
Ideally, the Astrological City, which is only a hundred miles apart, would send the Knights to join forces with Petersburg to flank the Li army, but due to the personal feud between Gladstone and Carroll, the two cities were unable to form an alliance in the end.
"Don't think that if you send tens of thousands of knights to help, I will be grateful to you. ”
Gladstone took the pigeon's message and tore it apart when he finished reading it.
"City Lord, what do you mean by this, we have reinforcements?" General Dika was puzzled, Astrological City and Sunflame Tower were not willing to send troops, where would there be support?
"It's King Monty, he temporarily mobilized 80,000 golden knights, and is currently on the way to help, it is estimated that we still have to hold on for ten days, don't save food and grass, let the knights fill their stomachs, and if the food is gone, slaughter the war horses. ”
After learning the latest battle report, the morale of the defenders of Petersburg was immediately high, and even though the strength of the knights and orcs was very different, everyone in the city was ready to fight to the death.
It only takes ten days to regain a new life and usher in food, grass and reinforcements.
Before Gladstone returned to the sand table, he planned to redeploy the battle situation, and Petersburg now had 50,000 silver armor, plus 80,000 reinforcements from King Monty, and theoretically qualified to fight the Li people to the end.
Although the knight is completely unable to compete with the orcs in terms of force and outburst alone, with the blessing of armor and weapons, which victory and defeat can only be known after fighting.
The gates of Petersburg are hung free of battle signs, but every day the orcs have generals who come to provoke and scold the eighteen generations of Gladstone's ancestors.
"I, Alfred Martin, the seventh warrior of the Li Clan, have come to face Gladstone, the shrunken turtle!" the red-bodied giant held a hammer and cursed his mother in the air.
There are still a dozen Petersburg generals under his feet, 1v1, and it is true that no knight can defeat the burly orcs.
"City Lord, it's too arrogant, let me go out of the city and kill him. Dicka clenched his grip on Changge, intending to go out of the city to face the battle.
"Don't be impulsive, I don't see that they are deliberately provoking you, if you go out of the city now, won't you fall for his plan?
"Dika, as the commander-in-chief of Petersburg, you have the heavy responsibility of dispatching troops and commanding the battlefield, how can you casually go out of the city and fight alone?"
In the face of the orc tribe's invective for days, Gladstone only smiled.
This kind of low-end agitation method has no effect on him at all, and it is not too late to wait for reinforcements to arrive, integrate troops, and then clean them up.
"But if no one is willing to go out of the city to fight, then the morale of our army will be seriously affected. General Dika argued.
"Lord Gladstone, let me go out of the city in place of General Deka. ”
"No, it's too dangerous. Gladstone rejected Chen Feng's offer to fight.
Those professionally trained lieutenants can't hold a stick in front of Alfred Martin, and if Chen Feng goes, it will be equivalent to dying in vain.
"Brother, the words of the city lord are all for your sake, the battlefield can't be regarded as child's play, if you don't get it right, you will die. Dika shook his head, he went out of the city to face the battle, and the chance of winning was less than half, let alone Chen Feng.
"Try it, I can't let him stop scolding the street all the time, my ears are almost calloused. ”
"It's really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, the courage is commendable, you meet the enemy, and Decca and I personally beat the drums and cheer for you. Seeing Chen Feng's relaxed expression, Gladstone must have a plan to meet the battle, he beckoned the guards, "Come on, bring my white horse and use it as a mount for Chen Feng's little brother." ”
"No need, I have mounts. ”
The side door slowly opened, Chen Feng threw out the metal card, and drove the jeep along the suspension bridge towards the outside of the city.
"Little Brother Chen Feng said that this metal lump can travel thousands of miles a day, and it is a scientific and technological product of the Eastern Continent, and it is ten times faster than our best war horse. Gladstone pointed to the jeep and described it to Decca.
"How is this possible, City Lord, don't make fun of me, I'll concentrate on cheering for Brother Chen Feng. ”
Confronting the red-skinned orcs in the air, Chen Feng opened the skylight and taunted at him: "Hey, that ugly ghost, how stinky your mouth is, scolding the street all day long, and those who don't know still think that you are crying for your father and mother?"
"Ugly ghost, you're talking about me?"
Alfred Martin was carrying a big stick, and his face twitched until he deformed when he heard this, "Little bastard, don't run, see if I don't tear you to pieces and eat you raw." ”
Martin brandished a big stick and ran towards Chen Feng, and every time his bulky body moved forward, the ground under his feet trembled.
Seeing that the orcs had been successfully provoked, Chen Feng closed the sunroof, fastened his seat belt, adjusted the jeep to racing mode, and forcibly lifted the speed limit.
"Then let you see what the real speed and fury are?" Chen Feng took a deep breath, stepped on the accelerator to the end, and circled around the orc.
A tornado rose from the ground, and smoke and dust were everywhere, obscuring the view, and the speed of the jeep was so fast that it was impossible to track with the naked eye, and no matter how Alfred Martin attacked with a big stick, he could not touch Chen Feng.
