After His Royal Highness James arrived in Braun City, Griffith held a banquet to catch the wind and wash the dust. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

There was a relationship between His Royal Highness and the Great Demon, and the former knew the identity of the latter's Great Alchemist, and in terms of attitude, he was still very positive.

Didias, Pisa, Liang Qiuzhi and other high-level officials of Braun City participated in this banquet, and His Royal Highness James did not want to talk about the front, so he found some interesting stories with the fifth princess when she was a child, and everyone laughed happily.

The people of the Great Demon and His Royal Highness took the opportunity of this relaxing drinking party to gather together in a relatively comprehensive manner. Talking and laughing with each other, it was considered death to alleviate the embarrassment of the defeated army when they first met.

Griffith saw that His Highness was not in a good mood, and the army was attacked and defeated, so it was not suitable to hold a banquet, and the banquet ended not long after. Although he was calm and composed, he didn't say a word about the front, but it could be seen that the defeat on the battlefield this time was not a small blow to His Highness - he should not be a person who cares about temporary success or failure, so Griffith thought that there might be more hidden behind this defeat.

When he woke up the next morning, His Highness James seemed to be in some good spirits. He summoned his subordinates and the high-ranking officials of Braun City and held a meeting in the city lord's mansion.

At the meeting, His Highness gave a brief explanation of the current situation, and the key points were reiterated accordingly. Griffith sat down in front of the sand table, sat down between the final lectures, and looked down for a moment at the red and green flags planted on the sand table.

"As you can see, the situation is not optimistic." His Royal Highness intertwined his fingers and raised his body: "Everyone fought very hard before, and everyone was working hard. Everyone wants to win, no one drags back, and I see it in my eyes...... As for the sneak attack on our army some time ago, and even suffered heavy losses, it is really my responsibility for negligence. As the commander-in-chief, he knows the enemy and asks for the guilt...... After this war, I will go to the Royal Military Court to apply for arbitration under military law. Here, I would like to apologize to the generals who have always supported and trusted me, it is me James who has disappointed everyone......"

When he said this, his voice paused, and the people below persuaded him one after another, 'How can this be', 'Your Highness thinks twice', and the buzzing sound was endless for a moment. Most of them are cronies of His Royal Highness James, and the black cauldron should naturally not be carried by the coach alone.

"But now is not the time to hold accountable, although I, James, am sometimes stupid and incompetent, but I think I am fair and do my best. The rank is the person I trust the most, and he is also a strong general of the Zhu Kingdom who is not weak in the world, and he will definitely live up to my ......" The man raised his head and looked around with a low and solemn attitude: "Besides, my sons and daughters, like the number of sand rivers, are really the division of tigers and wolves." There are you waiting, although you have experienced difficulties, you will be able to break it with one blow!

Now that I, James, have the world's male soldiers, have the rank to assist, and have a strong city to defend, how can I make the Northern Barbarians re-enter our empire by half an inch......"

The man's voice was generous, and after a while, he stood up, and his words became more earnest: "This Braun City...... I'll fight to the death! ”

His Highness's opening words laid the foundation for the direction of the entire meeting. In the previous time, His Royal Highness was defeated and the morale of the soldiers was low. Although they fled to the city of Bolang, there were still a lot of voices in the army, saying that they would continue to go south to find a strong city to resist the enemy.

These are really scared. His Royal Highness James doesn't talk about it, but he really knows what everyone thinks in his heart. In fact, if it were not for the limitations of his duties, it is not known whether he would be as firm as he is now.

This morning, His Highness decisively took the responsibility for the defeat of the army, supplemented by generous words, hoping to arouse the blood of those present. It also picks up the topic and interrupts some people's unrealistic ideas.

His gaze was like water, calmly sweeping the faces of every general in the room. After a while, he raised his head slightly and exhaled.

Braun City, it really can't be lost. Here, he wants to regain the dignity of this army of a hundred battles, and defend the country for the central and northern parts of the country behind him.

After this, there were tentative talks about the use of fire to defend the city, and the people muttered for a moment, and then talked about it for a while......

After the meeting dissolved, Griffith realized that perhaps the next big battle would not be as easy as he imagined.

James was attacked and defeated, and he knew it. But the big demon didn't expect that this time His Royal Highness's army happened to be hit by the other party by seven inches, and the losses were so heavy that it was incalculable.

The number of soldiers who entered the city was roughly 25,000. The remaining 30,000 cavalry and 150,000 infantry were evenly divided among the nearby fortified cities, reopening a defensive line for the empire.

It's just that according to His Highness, the soldiers in their northeast direction, which were originally close to 300,000, were once broken and separated by Prince McGee. Later, the army fought off the battlefield and fled in confusion, leaving less than 90,000 men. The tragedy of the battlefield and the heavy losses have long been beyond imagination.

His Royal Highness and the others gathered the remnants while withdrawing, and found their number team, which slowly accumulated to 200,000 along the way.

But such an army is a defeated remnant of the defeated generals who have been scattered, like a tiger that has lost its minions, and to be honest, I am afraid that there is not much morale at all.

……

……

There are four cities that are horns and echo each other from afar, including the destroyed city of Faerun.

The geographical location of these cities is interrelated, and if it is used well, it is not a Jedi.

When Griffith crossed over this time, only one of the four cities remained, the city of Feren. Soon after Griffith's arrival, it was also captured, so it didn't work out the effect of connecting the city.

In fact, the castle that was either destroyed or bypassed by the Fourth Legion of the Sakura Kingdom and the Third and Seventh Legions with lightning speed, and Griffith defeated this strange army. These cities, which had been captured, destroyed or burned, changed hands again and returned to the control of Prince Anta's side.

Although most of these castles were destroyed to varying degrees, even some of the burned walls were peeled off and fell down when they were pushed......

However, at that time, the Fourth Army Corps, which was attacking by surprise, had no time to stop and wreak havoc in the captured cities because it was shouldering the strategic purpose of penetrating the Central and North Plains. Therefore, after the imperial side took over, it was reorganized, restored and built fortifications.

These are the good things, Griffith has people focus on promoting these, the 'Fortified Iron City' or something, and the momentum of the scattered city is also steadily increasing in the propaganda.

But the bad side is actually more, the morale of the soldiers is low, there are few soldiers who can fight, and then the castle that is touted as a 'fortified iron city' is actually not so strong.

Two days later, Prince McGee, who had arrived with a large army, led a huge army in a U-shaped formation to surround the five castles represented by the city of Braun. This time is not the surprise attack of Bayers that broke through the frontier defense line before, it is a real army to suppress it, and the dignified soldiers are coming to the city!

Prince McGee had only arrived here at this time, which was too late in time, because when he was chasing the remnants of His Royal Highness James, Prince Anta of the Northwest Direction War Regiment exerted his strength in vain, seizing the time difference to make a counter-surprise attack, which not only solved the crisis of His Highness James, surrounded Wei to save Zhao, but also defeated the allies.

Prince McGee had no choice but to divide his troops and march west to support his allies, which delayed him for a while.

And when most of His Highness's army was scattered, the reason why he still came here so late was ......

When His Royal Highness asked the army to march in a hurry, he also worked hard for thousands of miles so that the army carried three big guys.

It was a huge pencil-like battering ram with a length of more than 30 meters, a powerful weapon that had been crafted from the royal factory of the Sakura Kingdom. Their tips are sharpened and set with gems and casting materials of various colors and shapes.

These three battering rams are a large fourth-order magic prop, which was enchanted by the alchemist Conn of the Sakura Kingdom for five years and countless precious materials, plus three fourth-order demonic powers who volunteered to make them enchant.

This huge creature is covered with strange and intricate patterns and gold threads, and its diameter is one meter thick, and because it is inlaid with many precious enchanted metal materials, it weighs ten tons.

If a big guy of this tonnage is used to hit an ordinary city gate, it is estimated that it does not need to be enchanted, and it will not take many strokes to open the door.

However, because the five cities such as Braun City are on the front line, the geographical location is extremely important, so the first-line fortifications such as the city gate and the city wall can be said to be quite thick and complete.

Even the stones of the city wall and the adhesive paint used between the stones have been crushed and mixed with the forbidden metal to achieve the purpose of preventing the attack of demonic energy. It also has good expressiveness in the face of physical attacks.,It's very strong.。

In fact, at the beginning of the construction, the walls of the entire wall of Braun City were painted with a huge defensive circle, which was mainly aimed at the ability to resist attacks in the direction of magical energy.

And the resistance to the physical direction of the city wall was increased by the stars in the subsequent city and city wall upgrades. Many of the wooden structures were clad in metal, and many parts were simply replaced with tons of iron!

The outside of the city wall circle was covered with thick brick wall paint, and the pattern of the circle led straight to the inside of the city, and after densely covering the distance of fifty meters below the base of the city wall, it connected to the city lord's mansion.

Now where Griffith lives is located in the center of the city protection circle, there are many pure crystals and magic cores used to charge the entire circle.

These things worked well, and the last time the Fourth Army attacked the city of Bolang, some clues could be seen.

It's just that Prince McGee of the Cherry Blossom Kingdom claims to have an army of 500,000 people, and everyone standing side by side is enough to circle the city dozens of times.

A thin wall of walls, in front of a sea of ants, is really not enough to see.

Prince McGee took advantage of the great victory over His Royal Highness James, and set up camp on the same day, and quickly besieged the outermost of the five cities of the empire, Starfire City.

When McGee attacked the former, he sent troops to encircle the other side through different directions, so that the opponent was attacked on all sides, and had to divide his troops at the same time to resist the attack of the remaining four forces.

The clouds of war began again after the people had enjoyed a month of tranquility. Fighting on the city wall, looking into the distance, the black crowd flickered, like the most ominous and shocking picture in the world.

The sky was burning, and the dense crowd on the ground shouted and stirred together, and the red and black armor mixed into a muddy vortex. Rows of archers at the head of the city raised their bows and shot scattered arrows like black clouds in the sky, and the people under the city charged into battle with huge siege engines in blood and arrows.

Huge fireballs swept across the sky, scorching and drying the air, and flew into the city. A flying demon was shot by the archers under the castle, and in an instant he fell under the burning walls, as inconspicuous as a grain of sesame seeds, and was instantly overwhelmed by the crowd behind him who couldn't wait to fill his position.

His Highness and Griffith stood on the walls of the city of Porham and watched, their eyes reflected the light of fire and shadows, and they were silent and refused to speak. This first day was just a period of testing for each other, and it was the momentum of the defenders on the side of the Sakura Kingdom in order to measure the war potential of Braun and other cities, and then even so, the battle was still beyond people's imagination.

The morale of the Sakura Kingdom, which had just conquered the sideline defense and fought a big victory, was so strong that the desire to fight from the generals to the soldiers made people feel like they were burning.

This kind of momentum, His Royal Highness James and his party have seen it in the previous battles, they were defeated by this team on their own territory, but it became a stepping stone, and the other party was completely exposed to the edge.
