Chapter 11 The Scales of Victory
With the death of Sisbis, the border guards of the entire southern country were completely annihilated. The remaining survivors were all killed by the subsequent mopping forces.
"Lord Eleanor, we have wiped out all the enemies, leaving not a single survivor behind. The soldier reported to Eleanor.
"Very well, knights, you have all worked hard! But the battle is not over yet, and we still have to go to support Iska and Gardia, so get ready for your equipment now! Let's go right away!!"
Under Eleanor's command, the Heavy Riders quickly regrouped and then reversed course towards the top of the mountain......

As one of Hibbert's most important subordinates, he commanded the most elite garrison of the royal capital in the south, and as one of the important combat forces of this encirclement and suppression, he not only commanded the garrison, but also gathered all the defenders south of the Central Mountains, and together with Sisbis, who led the army in the north, they surrounded Eleanor's troops from both sides of the Central Mountains.
At this time, Ulysses was silently watching the battle on this side through the sand table magic in the camp.
"Lord Ulysses!!!Oh no!!" The soldier commanded in a panic.
"Calm down. β
"It's rude, I just received the news that the border guards led by Lord Sisbis on the other side have been completely wiped out by the enemy, and no one has survived. The soldier reported.
"yes, that's right. Hearing this, Ulysses did not panic like Zhong, but said this calmly.
"General, our troops have never been able to storm the fortress on the top of the mountain! The enemy's stubborn resistance is fierce! Now that the forces of Lord Sisbis have been annihilated again, we are afraid... At this point, the soldier did not dare to continue.
"It's okay, to be able to do this, Sisbis is worthy of the name of the country of the south. Ulysses slowly rose from his chair. In the sand table magic in front of them, their troops can still only advance to the position halfway up the mountain, due to the heroic battle of Iskar and Gardia, their pace has not been able to go further, and if it continues to be consumed like this, the troops led by Eleanor on the other side will come to join the Iska and them, let alone attack the top of the mountain, it is not realistic to even defend the current front.
Originally, in terms of the number of troops, the southern country was at an absolute disadvantage, and with the consumption of many battles, there were not many cards that Ulysses could play in his hand now.
"Although victory or defeat may be predestined, we are worthy of our appreciation for Lord Mostima, let all the soldiers obey the order, abandon all positions and attack the enemy desperately, and I will also rush to the front line. Ulysses commanded loudly, while holding his weapon himself, intending to go to the front in person.
"Wait a minute, are you sure you want to do this?" The non-commissioned officer on the side obviously couldn't understand his intentions, after all, as the last line of defense of the capital, once they attacked without reservation, then the entire southern country would lose the last line of defense, and once they were completely annihilated, the entire capital would become an empty city without defense, such a desperate gamble was obviously too reckless.
"Of course, this is also the will of Lord Mostima. β
"Lord Mostima's will?!This is crazy, my opinion is to temporarily withdraw the army, withdraw to the royal capital, and then use the fortifications of the royal capital to start the final Zhou Xuan with the enemy. β
"Zhou Xuan, didn't you see those giant siege beast carts on the top of the mountain? Our so-called high city walls are completely vulnerable in front of them. β
"But we can't give up the royal capital completely... After all, Lord Mostima ... β
"That's enough!!This is an order from the Supreme Commander!Everyone must obey unconditionally!!If anyone has any objections!!Then kill them on the spot as a traitor!!"
Listening to Ulysses's harsh words, all the voices of opposition fell silent in an instant.
"What are you doing in a daze!!!" Ulysses took a stride and strode out of the camp......

Halfway up the mountain, where the battle was fierce, the forces of Higashino Country, led by Iskar and Gardia, were engaged in a fierce confrontation with the influx of enemies.
In order to be able to hold the line and not let the enemy move forward, Iska and Gardia almost did not stop rushing to the front line, and as time went on, the two worked together more and more tacitly, Iska was responsible for melee combat, while Gardia was responsible for magical support and reinforcement for the rest of their companions.
In order to be able to defeat them, the enemy also tried all kinds of methods, in addition to constantly shifting the focus of the attack to their side, they also used a large number of warlocks to saturate them with magic bombardment. However, they didn't reap any results, and the two of them were like fighting gods standing on the battlefield, and they couldn't be defeated no matter what......
