And at this moment, about seventy kilometers behind Li Ran's camp, in the tent of the commander of the Grenada Imperial Alliance, the previously defeated military and political chief Sodros was staring at the magic map in the center. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, now he is not standing in the position of the coach, and sitting in the position of the coach above is a middle-aged man with a somewhat thin figure, and he is the famous Duke of Bandak in the Grenada Empire.

Although in terms of size and appearance, this Duke of Bandak is not too outstanding, nor is he too impressive, but everyone present at this time knows very well that this is a powerful duke who kills people without blinking.

After a long time, the military chief turned his gaze from the magic map to the duke and asked, "Lord Bandak, are you sure that this Count Magus will hold out until we rush over?" ”

To this military and political chief, Bandak also replied: "Although Lord Sodros can rest assured, as one of my followers, I am still sure about the matter of Magus, he is this guy whether it is in internal affairs or military affairs, to be honest, he is on the stage, and his character is still a little timid, but there is a characteristic that he is good at fighting defensive warfare, and it is precisely because of this characteristic that when I asked him to come out to build his own city, he not only chose this dangerous place, In addition, the defense of the castle was deliberately strengthened when it was built."

Speaking of this, the duke thought about it and said with a smile: "Maybe all of you don't know how timid this guy is, not to mention that the bricks and stones of his city walls are all forged stones that I got from the underground world, but they were coated with mortar by this guy, so they can't be seen from the outside, and the most outrageous thing is his city gates, which are made of precious thousand-year-old thorn wood and gilded gold."

"Forge the Goldstone!" Hearing this duke's words, someone in the tent couldn't help but exclaim at this time: "Didn't we buy it at a high price to build a training ground and a martial arts platform?" As for the thorn wood, although it is ordinary, but it has reached more than a thousand years, as far as I know, it seems that only the two doors at the main entrance of the royal family are, this ~ This is too extravagant! ”

In this regard, the duke also smiled bitterly and said: "Now you know how timid this guy is, I also owe him a favor, plus he really had no choice at that time, otherwise I would not be willing to transport so many forging stones to him, as for those thousand-year-old thorn trees, it is his own luck, you should have confidence at this time."

Hearing this, everyone present nodded again and again, not to mention the city wall made of all forged stones, even if it only penetrated a small half, then this city wall is not something that ordinary weapons can break.

As for the city gate made of thousand-year-old thorn wood mixed with gilding, it is even more stable, not to mention that the previous Prince of Territh does not have heavy siege weapons, even if he does, I am afraid that when they break through the city gate, I believe they will have already arrived.

What's more, during this period of time, they also have a good grasp of the situation of the Prince of Terries in front, in order not to be caught up by them, he brought high-speed troops mainly cavalry, and did not bring any powerful siege weapons at all.

As for its troops, the only one with some siege ability is the destruction level of the Moluga King, although it is very powerful, but it alone wants to attack such a defensive city, that is also unrealistic.

And after the subsequent inquiry, after the Duke of Bandak personally confirmed, the city built by Count Margs not only has a perfect air defense barrier, but also has a very extraordinary military strength, and everyone present, including the military and political chief, finally put their minds at ease, this time it is not easy to force this Prince Terres here, it seems that there will finally be a result in the next two days.

In fact, during this period of time, especially half a month ago, with the other side of the coalition army led by Prince Ralsena, because of the invaders, behind the Krachi and Pamprador of the Cruyard Empire, some other city lords suddenly appeared, and even rumored to have their capital corps inside, that side has reached a stalemate, and while many people have turned their eyes to them, they are also under various pressures.

However, the situation on their side is that hundreds of thousands of troops have been led around by the enemy, not only the morale of the soldiers has dropped rapidly, but the consumption of materials is amazing, and it has really made their own faces dull.

And the most important thing is that in the past few days, it may have been too long, and there have been some bad news from the capital, some say that they do not want to make progress, some say that they are not good at supervising the war, and some even say that they are afraid of the enemy.

Everyone present knew in their hearts that if it weren't for the Duke of Bandak here, the capital might have been reprimanded a long time ago, but the envoys who came from time to time also asked them to hurry up and fight a decisive battle and open up the current embarrassing situation as soon as possible.

After all, compared to the more than 200,000 enemy troops over there, there is even the figure of its capital city behind it, Prince Rolsena can hold it back, even if there is no merit, there is hard work, and there are only 60,000 enemy troops here, but they have not solved it, and even several surrounding cities have been looted, and dozens of noble city lords have been killed, which is really embarrassing, as for the level and elite level of the troops here, others will not care about these.

Now under the strategy of the Duke of Bandak, it is not easy to force the other party here step by step, and the damned Prince Territh in front of them has not replenished food and grass for almost a week, and they know very well, so as long as they seize this opportunity, they can completely annihilate this invader army.

As for why they didn't continue to chase now, in addition to the fear that their legionnaires would be physically exhausted, they were also worried that this Prince of Territh would jump over the wall and then split his troops and escape, so that it would not only be difficult for them to completely annihilate this legion, but maybe the other legion's wandering legion would also pose a threat to other lords in this area.

After all, the opponent's class level is too high, even if only one or two thousand, or even a few hundred people get together, it is possible to attack a town or a small city, in that case, even if they expel these people, there will be no credit in the capital.

As a result, the chaotic battle, which lasted for more than a month, finally took a turn for the better the next day, especially when the coalition forces led by Bandak knew that the Prince of Terris had gone straight to the medium-sized city of Count Margus early the next morning, and they knew that the opportunity had come.

Although in the subsequent information, they were a little surprised that the speed of this surprise attack would be so fast for this Prince of Terres, but in their minds, it was just that this person wanted to spare some more time to replenish food and grass, as long as their large army followed and arrived within a day of the other party's siege, they could ensure the success of this siege.

They didn't believe that a city whose walls were made of forged stone, and whose lord was a general who was good at defensive warfare, would not be able to hold out for even a day.

At the same time, just in case, the calm Duke of Bandak was still discussing with everyone, this time he made two preparations, and early the next morning, after confirming that the enemy in front had moved, he divided a fast army of about 200,000 to surround from the left side, and if the other party could not capture the city for a long time, they would go around to the rear, and when the army arrived, they would encircle the Prince of Terres.

And if something unexpected happens, they can also go directly into battle with reinforcements and cooperate with Count Magus, who is defending the city, to defeat these invaders, although then they will have less credit, but they can barely complete the task given by the king.

As for why it detoured from the left, it was because it was the direction of the border between the empire and Khan Lok, and if the other party fled, they should habitually choose to go in this direction.

I have to say that this Bandak is indeed a duke who knows how to fight and is very calm, as a well-known figure in the empire, he did not take his reputation too seriously in the war, and even counted only a trace of unfavorable circumstances.

But even so, when this chaotic but large-scale battle ended, the result was a surprise to everyone, because after this battle, not only the Imperial coalition with more than 500,000 troops was defeated on all fronts, but even the Duke of Bandak himself became a prisoner of the enemy.

When the news came, the whole country of Grenada was in an uproar, and many people didn't even want to believe that this was a fact, but with the collection of information from all walks of life, people also roughly knew the beginning and end of the war.

It has to be said that from these aggregated intelligence, the Duke of Bandak's command is not a problem, although because of the large number of coalition troops he leads, he has gradually forced this Prince of Terris into a remote area, and then when there is no food and grass, he is forced to capture the only medium-sized city around him at this time.

From this information, they also learned for the first time how strong the defense of this medium-sized city built by Count Margus was, even no less than the average acropolis, if nothing else, it would definitely withstand the attack of the Prince of Terris for a few days, and then the coalition army led by the Duke of Bandak could rush to surround and annihilate it in one day.

Among them, the Duke of Bandak, who has always been steady, even made preparations with both hands to drive away and encircle and annihilate, just after this battle, the crisis of Prince Terres will be completely resolved.

However, it was this cautious move that allowed the hateful Territh to seize the opportunity, it turned out that he did not rush to attack this medium-sized city at all, but only sent some suspicious soldiers, so that the scouts of the coalition army mistakenly thought that they had chosen to attack after seeing the dragon legions flying in the sky, and the large amount of dust and smoke stirred up by some minotaurs driving nearly 10,000 Kodomon.
