Chapter 366: Coalition Forces

The coalition forces that fought across the ocean were facing the crisis of insufficient food supply, so after they learned the news of the arrival of the Tang Army, they immediately shifted their efforts to capturing and occupying cities that could provide abundant materials as a foothold, and Weil City was a famous place of wealth and abundant grain, which naturally became an important target of the coalition army. In addition, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is the best stronghold, and they will take it even if it costs a lot of money. The supplies of Bai Ao and Lingdal and several other cities were too far behind those of Will City, and it didn't make much sense to break through, and if the forces were scattered to various small cities, it would be easy for the Imperial Coalition to resist when they counterattacked. Instead, concentrate on a self-sufficient and easily defended place, and that is Will City.

Vicious, vicious, Renaud sighed secretly, it is said that Guise started as a businessman, and he is cunning and cunning, and he really sees it very thoroughly. It's not that he doesn't know the importance of Will City to the Northwest Alliance, nor does he deliberately send insufficient manpower to protect it, if there is a balance between the great cause of the empire and his personal grudges, he will choose the latter anyway. However, the forces that could be mobilized at that time were indeed tight, as can be seen from the miscellaneous degree of this army. If the 376th Regiment can hold the city of Will, it will naturally be happy, but this possibility is really very small, even if it can't be held, it is no problem to take advantage of the favorable terrain of the city of Will, so that the enemy army suffers a certain degree of heavy casualties, and it is still earned. However, the team sent to guard Will City was used as cannon fodder. Even if Guise doesn't choose Renault, he still has to choose someone else to be cannon fodder, in that case, why not take this opportunity to take revenge? In the case of thinking about the interests of the empire, and let this hated boy die, it is really a double win, the plan can be described as perfect, worthy of a generation of heroes in the empire.

No wonder the empire still keeps transferring the people of Will City when the situation of defending the city is very good, it turns out that the worst has been planned for the worst, Renault sighed, compared with this old fritter, he is still a little tender. But even if he knew that he was cannon fodder, there was no way for Guise to ask him to be it, and he didn't say that he just wanted to avoid confusion in the army's mind. If everyone in the team knew that they were going to die, they would have to lose half of them before they fought. Thinking about it from another angle, Guise is still very considerate of the Tang Empire. Of course, the methods he used were more invisible and deadly.

It is impossible for Renault to give up Will City and escape, Tsukihime and the other lieutenants will definitely not be willing, they are all loyal to the Empire, and they must support the death, even if the chance of survival is not great, even if they can escape back, Guise will kill him on the charge of desertion, Will City is an important city, and there are still a large number of citizens who have not been transferred, Renault can't give up in advance like the commander of the city defense. However, the current situation is really not optimistic, what should we do?

Tsukihime was a little worried when she saw the appearance of Renault's six gods without a master, she knew very well what this news meant, but she couldn't hide it and not report it, otherwise the consequences would be even more serious.

"Step, step, step......" The sound of the magic knight came from far and near, and the three of Renault followed the sound, but saw that in the front and rear protection of the spear knight with strong defense, a large group of warriors of other professions methodically unfolded their light body skills and galloped towards the Lanling Heights, mixed with their many battle pets.

Of course, the enemy army was not so soon to arrive, and Renault was pleasantly surprised to spot a burly man in front of the group, none other than Washlaki.

Soon Renault discovers several other members: Arnold, known as the "Violent Warrior", Bruce the Charmer, Segers the Knight, and Karin, a shy priest who has never seen before, are all in the team, and as the leaders of each class, they are very conspicuous and easy to see. These people are all friends who have a good relationship with Renault Yueji at Chang'an Academy on weekdays.

The thousands of newly arrived Bai Ao garrisons were naturally placed under the management of the 376th Regiment, and after they were divided, the responsible persons below the platoon commander immediately arranged them, while Renault had urgent discussions with Washlaki and other important people.

"Brother, it's great to see you!"

Washlaki changed his conspicuous expression in the past, but instead turned into a calm appearance that was not surprised or displeased, as if the sky would not frown when it fell, and he said lightly: "Shijun, you hurry up and tell me about the situation." ”

At that time, Tsukihime revealed that the other Northwest Coalition forces were going to meet and attack Will City.

As soon as her words came out, it was like a stone that stirred up a thousand waves, and the crowd was in an uproar. The coalition forces have changed so quickly that they haven't heard anything yet. The joy of reuniting with the 376 regiment has also turned into melancholy, with a ratio of more than 1 to 6 people, and there are knights, magicians, archers and a large number of troops on the other side that are conducive to rapid siege, the odds of victory are too small, and it is difficult to hold on until the arrival of imperial reinforcements. Even Washlaki, who was incomprehensible in everything, frowned, which shows that the matter is serious.

So everyone discussed one after another, and racked their brains to come up with various tactics, but before the huge difference in strength, they all seemed so powerless, at most, they could only slightly prolong the time of falling, and it was only a matter of time before the whole army was annihilated.

However, knowing the strategic position of Will City, none of them proposed to retreat, and it was impossible for them to bear to give up so many ordinary citizens who had not yet been transferred and had no combat capability.

"Ahem, ahem!" Renault, who had never spoken, coughed dryly twice.

Everyone knows that he is a hairy man who graduated from the academy in the first year, even if he is strong in martial arts, he has always been too lacking in the decision-making ability of leaders, and in large-scale wars, he can win not by his own strength, so he doesn't understand why the empire would appoint a rookie as the head of the regiment, and they have always ignored this supreme leader.

At this time, the invisible man suddenly spoke, and everyone's eyes turned to him in unison.

Renault cleared his throat and said: "Everyone, it's not that I have the ambition of others and destroy my own prestige, but it is undoubtedly a very stupid thing to have a hard encounter with an enemy army that is far six or seven times stronger than myself, I think we can avoid its edge and shift the target to other places?"

Everyone wondered, "Transfer?"

An imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Renault's mouth: "That's right, change it to something of theirs." ”

He said word by word: "Grain!"

Everyone was puzzled, but Washlaki, who had only listened to the heated discussion and had been silent, suddenly had a strange light in his eyes. "Grain?" the crowd was still puzzled.
