Chapter 242: The Great Army Strikes
In five days, Mo Shen and Sorrento made a batch of repeaters according to the drawings of Zhuge Repeater, and the effect was good after trying, and it was very time to defend the city.
At this time, in the palace of the Lion City, Baron Montevo knelt in front of Alfred II and cried: "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me, Mo Shen took advantage of my rush to the rescue, led the troops to defeat my Shield Fort, Your Majesty begs you to send troops to fight against rebellion!"
"That little bastard dares to attack the Shield Fortress, it's good! This is your own doing, Baron Montvoir, get up, I'll give you eight hundred men, and you go and kill that little bastard Mo Shen!" said Alfred II.
"Your Majesty, no! Now our vitality is greatly damaged, and if we lose another 800 people... I'm afraidβ" said the Duke of Allama.
"Marshal, are you still trying to stop me!" said Alfred angrily.
"Ahh
On that day, Duke Allama led his 1,000 elites to return to Changhe Town, because he already had a hunch that these 800 people would be sacrificed in vain, and he had to bring his elites back, after all, Changhe Town was his base camp, and he also heard dissatisfaction from Alfred II's words just now.
Although he is His Majesty's own uncle, there is a good saying, the most ruthless emperor family, he also made the worst plan, no matter what, he has three thousand soldiers in Changhe Town, and one thousand elites are one for three, as long as Changhe Town is here, he Alama is still a duke, this will not change.
And just as Montvo's troops were about to fight back to Shield Fortress, Mo Shen welcomed a guest.
"Baron Eldfred, please take a seat when you come from afar, this is the spirit I brought from the snowfields of the North, you can taste it and see how it tastes. Mo Shen said with a smile.
"Your Highness Mo Shen, you're polite, hiss, this is really strong, good wine!" said Baron Eldfred after taking a sip.
"If you like, I'll give you a car when you leave. Mo Shen said with a smile.
"Then thank you to His Highness Mo Shen. Ald Fred said with a smile.
"I don't know what you're doing this time?............. Mo Shen asked.
"Your Highness, I wonder how you saw the battle not long ago?" asked Eld Fred.
"Hehe, one general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies!" Mo Shen said lightly.
"Your Highness's words are incisive!, but if it were Your Highness, how would you deal with the Empire's alliance with Fieldsway?" Ald Fred asked with a smile.
Mo Shen squinted, he knew that it was Ald Fred who was testing him, and at the same time thought of his purpose, now the situation in the territory of the Lion is very bad, after a big battle, everyone is worried about their future and future.
"Look at the sand table, the distance between the Seven Crosses Fortress and the Lion City is not far, if you let the heralds hurry up, it will be there in less than two hours, but as far as I know, the Empire has gathered a large army outside the Seven Cross Fortress for two days, but what is Alfred II doing with that idiot?
If it takes time to mobilize a large army, why not send a herald to destroy the bridge outside the Seven Crosses, although it costs some money to build a bridge, but what is the value compared to the safety of the kingdom?
The natural geographical location of the Seven Cross Fortress is very suitable for defending the city, even if the outer bridges are occupied, why don't the bridges of the moat be destroyed? As far as I know, the Seven Cross Fortress is divided into the inner city and the outer city, you see this is the city defense map, there is a turbulent stream between the outer city and the plain, why not destroy the arch bridge.
If the arch bridge can be destroyed, it will take at least a few hours longer for the Imperial army to drive straight into the outer city, and then the infield can continue to build a second line of defense.
And Alfred II did not gather troops to reinforce for two days, and what is even more ridiculous is that Baron Eric, as the commander of the Seven Cross Fortress, did not defend the last barrier of the Lion Realm at the first time, but left three hundred old, weak, sick and disabled to defend the city, and he himself fled to Changhe Town with his elite.
Hehe, it's really someone from the Arama family, if I were the king, the first thing I would do would be to give an order, destroy the bridge outside the Seven Crosses Fortress, and then immediately send reinforcements, if the commander dares to escape, there will be no mercy!" Mo Shen said coldly.
Ald Fred said with a smile: "Haha, Your Highness Mo Shen, you are a talented person, I also know something about the Seven Cross Fortress, in fact, the imperial army can drive straight into the imperial capital for a long time, and it is inseparable from Eric's escape, and I also agree with your statement."
But what should Fieldsway's army do?"
As far as I know, long before the war, the Empire and Fields had already shown signs of success, as the king this is Alfred II's dereliction of duty, why not contact the Raven Realm early? You know, if our Lion Realm is wiped out, then the next most dangerous thing is his Raven Realm.
I also know something about Gregory, the king of the Crow Realm, this is also a very courageous and skillful king, he will not fail to see the crisis in this, if I am the king of the Lion Realm, I will contact Gregory in advance, use the Howling City as a bait, drag the Fields army, and the Crow Realm will attack the rear of Fieldsway, and the crisis can be solved!" Mo Shen said coldly.
"Then Your Highness, do you think Montevo and I should come back to help?" Ald Fred asked with a twinkle in his eyes.
Mo Shen shook his head: "This is the most mediocre move, even if you have a lot of meaning to come back?" Alama and Elf will not watch the fall of the Lion City, don't look at the imperial army of nearly 10,000 people, menacing, in fact, it is far more difficult to attack the city than to defend the city, plus the three dukes will definitely not dare to give up the Lion City.
In that case, if it were me, I would order you to take the opportunity to take the empty Shieldwind Fort, and then order Montvoor to rush to the aid of Amera's fort.
Then he ordered Baron Godric of Kelledan City to attack the Sava Fort from the rear, you must know that at that time, there were almost not many defenders around the Empire, even if the Empire wanted to send reinforcements from Emperor Lingang or Siyuan City, it would not be able to arrive in a day or two.
In this way, the empire's expeditionary force of nearly 10,000 people is facing a dilemma, once Fields is strongly attacked by the Crow Realm, he will definitely retreat first to secure his own territory, so that Duke Brenus's army can completely join forces, not to mention destroying the imperial army, at least it can also make the empire vigor hurt!" Mo Shen said.
Elder Fred applauded and said: "Your Highness, you are really a ghost, I now understand why the old king handed over the banner gun to you, our Lion Realm can only be restored to its former glory under your leadership! I, Ald Fred, am willing to follow His Highness!"
Mo Shen smiled and said, "It's my honor to have the help of Baron Eldfred, come on, let's continue to drink." β
At this moment, a soldier hurriedly ran in and reported, "Your Highness, our spies in front of us have come to report that the eight hundred legions led by Baron Montvo are coming towards us, and we will be able to arrive in one more day." β
Mo Shen waved his hand to tell the soldiers to stand back.
"Your Highness, I'll go back and transfer troops!" Ald Fred said solemnly.
Mo Shen smiled and said: "No, you go back now, and then you don't need to send troops, don't expose our relationship for the time being, look at it, I'm going to eat all his eight hundred people, and I don't need you to send troops to reinforce me." β
"Then Your Highness, be careful, if the situation is not right, I will send troops in time!" Ald Fred said solemnly.
Mo Shen smiled and sent it out of the Shield Fortress.
"Someone came to give me an order, put the ballista on the fixed point of the tower, and at the same time the infantry wore repeating crossbows, the catapult was prepared in the rear, and the stones were wrapped in tarpaulin!" Mo Shen arranged.
"Elo commands!" said Elo.
After arranging everything, in the castle, in the war room, Mo Shen looked at Charles and asked, "How is the training of the military formation I handed over to you five days ago?"
"Your Highness, our soldiers have been able to exert the power of the military formation!" Charles said.
"Very well! this time I'm going to eat all eight hundred of Montevo's!" Mo Shen said.
