Paran clearly understood that his duty was definitely not to be a real pioneer, and he was not required to attack the city. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In fact, the current garrison corps is not so weak, at least much stronger than when the Marlon Legion was destroyed a few months ago.

At that time, the garrison corps was almost entirely composed of miscellaneous soldiers. Newly drafted recruits, undisciplined mercenaries, lazy vigilantes, and gangsters and ruffians who have been co-opted......

Such a legion certainly has no way to be called elite.

After a few months of training, after a long period of training, although due to the poor foundation of the troops, it is impossible for Verina to train such a team into an elite if she has the ability to pass the sky, but in terms of the discipline of the legion, it has more or less changed. Then, after adding several light infantry brigades that were eliminated by the main legion, and the production capacity of the blacksmith shop in White Wolf Fort was increased, Verina also took out part of the military expenses of the garrison corps and went to the blacksmith to place some equipment orders.

All this is counted, and the combat strength of the garrison corps now is much better than it was a few months ago -- at least, in the face of some warlords' regular armies, it should not be a big problem to fight a dozen.

But despite this, Paran does not intend to act rashly. He wasn't an adventurous person at all, and the main trait he was valued by Verina was that the young man had a caution that didn't match his age.

The military strength of the Iron Nail Post is not strong. Originally, there was a legion led by Gusha, a total of 4,000 people. A few months earlier, when Gusha had been killed in battle, the more than 3,000 soldiers he had taken with him had been wiped out.

This does not only mean that Iron Nail Post has lost most of the garrison troops, the elite part of the Iron Nail Gang Legion, but at the beginning of his tenure, the Iron Nail Gang Overseer Gusha brought a wing of Confused City infantry from the north. And when this team is buried in the wasteland, although there are still about a thousand men left in Iron Nail Height, this team is ineffective - you can't expect a group of former warlords to be co-opted to maintain the will to fight without any force to suppress it.

In fact, at the time of the fall of Gusha's legions, a rebellion broke out at Nail Point - which Dain did not admit to being instigated by his men - and the rebellion did not last long, and soon the Governor of Conley sent 2,000 main troops from Cinderella to Iron Nail Post to suppress the rebellion.

In fact, that was the best time for Dane to enter the Iron Nail Height, and he would not face any resistance at all. It's just that, in that case, I'm afraid that Cindelare's all-out war would have been ignited a few months ago.

Now, the new Overseer named Dempsey has been in office for nearly three months, and the situation in Iron Nail Gang has basically been stabilized, and he has also received some reinforcements from Cinderella, so that the number of the main army in his hands has also reached the size of 3,000 men in two wings. At the same time, he also recruited a group of servants on the spot, and the number of these people was also a wing.

The total strength of 4,500 people is actually not weak.

After leading his army to the city of Iron Nail Height, Paran did not act rashly. He stopped his troops two kilometers away and looked at the city from afar. At the same time, many unsuitable equipment began to be built in the camp, two kilometers away from the walls of the Iron Nail Gang.

In fact, Palan was a little flustered, this was the first time he had led the army independently, although he had also experienced wars before, but he was all with Verina as an adjutant, he was afraid that the first battle in his life would go wrong.

He was very careful to integrate a whole company of soldiers, holding the camp everywhere, and sending scouts on horseback to roam around the city, as long as there was any movement in the city in front of him, which was stationed with nearly 5,000 soldiers, he would immediately integrate the army and prepare for battle.

Luckily, the new Overseer doesn't seem to be an adventurous person either. Rear Admiral Dempsey seems to have been planning to remain on hold until he received further definite information.

The peace of the whole night somewhat relieved the worried Parland.

According to the direct orders he received from Verina before the battle, his duty was only to watch the movement of the iron nail post after arriving at the battlefield in advance, and to build some siege equipment in advance. He only had to wait a day, and by four o'clock in the afternoon the next day at the latest, Dain's main army would arrive on the battlefield, and his mission would be considered a perfect accomplishment.

On the twenty-second, Paran woke up in the early morning, and the first thing he did was to take out his pocket watch and check the time.

"Hmm...... 6:20 a.m. ...... "It was just getting dark, and there were only more than nine hours left before the arrival of the main army on the timetable. As long as you don't make any mistakes during this time, everything will be fine.

He thought so, but after a night of silence, Dempsey on the other side seemed to feel that the enemy army that had arrived under his nose was not very powerful.

He decided to do some tentative offenses.

At eight o'clock, the sky was almost completely bright. Palan, who was supervising the soldiers in the camp to build siege equipment, looked up and vaguely saw a group of black dots flying in the sky.

Raising his eyebrows, he had a very bad thought in his heart: this can't be the enemy's flying unit, right?

"The air cavalry is coming! Get down! Get down! Watch out for cover! Paran shouted as he shouted, and when several of his servants heard it, they shouted with him.

He wasn't sure, but Palan, who was cautious by nature, still decided to be more cautious. After all, he'd also heard of the Batriders of Chaos City!

When the black dots got closer, he could see that they were indeed flying cavalry!

That's really a big bat with about a squadron formation!

Paran's prudence saved many lives.

The batriders in the air hovered in the sky for a moment after approaching, and immediately began to dive downward!

In the process of diving, there were a few arrows scattered around, which were thrown into the sky by the soldiers of the garrison legion, trying to strike at the large bats. But it turned out that Palan's team was not elite enough, and the scattered arrows posed little of a threat.

And the threat posed by the Battroons, that's a big deal!
