At noon, the scouts and messengers of the bandit coalition gathered at the South Tower camp in the Wartham Tower, and a piece of information was sent to Sigru's new deputy, who hurriedly read the information and walked into Sigru's room with a happy face. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Boss, except for Hedel Manor, the nobles of the other fortresses and manors have all fled, and it is said that there are also nobles in Snow City who have fled!"

"Haha, it seems that this feast has finally begun!"

……

"My lord, Count Larson of Rudaburg has arrived."

In the Dragon Night Palace, Avensi reminded in Barguf's ear.

This was the second time that Avinsy had reminded Barguf, before that, the owner of Rudaburg, Count Larsen, had been waiting outside for some time, but Barguf was not aware of what he was pondering and did not hear his reminder, which made him have to say it again.

"Larson? Larsson in Rudaburg? Barguf was stunned, waking up from a dream.

"That's right, do you want to ...... or not"

"Has Rudaburg also been breached?" Barguf didn't care about Avissi's inquiry, but muttered to himself with a look of loss.

"Your Excellency, Lord Larson, he ......"

"Bring him in to rest, by the way, how many people did Larson bring here?"

"There were more than 200 soldiers in total, and more than 100 civilians, and there was no blocking on the road."

"Lay ordinary soldiers in separate formations, arrange civilians, and by the way, put healthy men into the reserves."

Barguf waved for Avinsy to leave, his brow hadn't stretched since Koya returned to the Valsam Towers and the bandits from all over the territory had gathered in the snowman.

Not long after Count Larson entered the Dragon Palace, the commander of the Grey Marsh Fortress, Baron Karaze, and his team also fled to Xueman, along with him the commander of the Western Watchtower, Nordia, and most of the guards of the Western Watchtower.

However, Baron Karazeg was not as lucky as Count Larson, and he and his soldiers and craftsmen had just bypassed the encirclement of the western watchtower and were overtaken, and Baron Karazeg had to divide a team to block it.

The barrage alarm alarmed the bandits surrounding the western watchtower, and several bandit leaders discussed it, and nearly half of their men joined the pursuit, and mobilized bandits from several other directions to fill the vacancy.

However, the troops besieging the western watchtower were a motley army of small and medium-sized bandit regiments, accustomed to fighting on their own, with no qualified commanders and no major battles, and the bandits from several other directions had just received the order and became confused, and did not fill the void as quickly as the leaders had expected.

At this time, the food stock of the western guard tower was almost at the bottom, and it was one meal a day for two consecutive days, and when Nodia saw that the bandits outside the city were divided into half, and the entire southeastern encirclement was in vain, he immediately ordered all the soldiers to gather and break through immediately.

Nodia's sudden breakthrough instantly stunned the besieging army in the southeast, and directly led people to rush into the bandits' camp, cut down the robbers in the panic, and by the way, put a few fires in the camp to stop the bandits who were surrounding this side, and chased all the way to Baron Karaze's army.

When Baron Karazek saw the army of the western watchtower that had broken through, he immediately ordered all his soldiers to turn around and meet the battle, and formed a battle formation to cooperate with the attack of the Nordia department.

The front and rear flanking made the pursuing army fall into chaos, and the western guard tower troops with Nodia as the arrow instantly tore apart the defense line that the bandits hastily organized, further expanding the chaos of the bandits, and the Karazek department also took advantage of the bandits' hearts to launch a counterattack, directly crushing the bandits' forward troops.

With the cooperation of the Karazek Division, the Nodia Division, which formed the Blade Formation, easily cut through the bandits' not thick formation and merged with the Karazek Division.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the robbers fled to both sides, but the two armies did not pursue, and quickly retreated in the direction of Xueman City while the robbers were still in chaos.

After retreating to the city, Karadze and Nodia were also received by Barguf, and since the two men were only generals and their troops were not their private soldiers, their armies were all scattered and incorporated into the snowman army.

However, Barguf obviously will not let the two excellent commanders idle, after reorganizing the army of the two, he appointed the two as commanders to lead a team of 1,000 people, after all, the qualified commander in Xueman City is only Caius, although he is the commander of Xueman City, but he is just a guy in charge of law and order, and it is no problem to take the city guards to manage a fight and brawl, but he is not good at this kind of large-scale combat.

As for Balguf's younger brother Holongner, although he clamored all day long to fight the Storm Cloak, he could at most be a general, leading a team of 100 to charge into battle, but he didn't know anything about commanding the battle as a whole.

The noon feast lasted only half an hour, and at such a time, when no one was interested in wasting time on eating "such a trifle", Barguf sent another group of scouts, and Nodia and Baron Karazec took over the army and re-defended the city.

The lifeless snowy city has only slightly recovered its fighting spirit since then.

However, in Huder Manor, the atmosphere is diametrically opposite, almost everyone is ready for battle, everyone's eyes are full of majestic fighting intent, even the old man and the delicate woman are wielding short swords, trying their best to improve their combat ability.

Although there were 3,000 bandits outside the walls of Hedr Manor, although they were all rabble, compared to the scale of the other castles and watchtowers of less than 1,000 people, it was enough to see the importance that Higru attached to Huder Manor.

But this is nothing to Sirika, even if the last battle of the western guard tower lost 300 elite soldiers, there are still more than 600 elites in the manor, and among the remaining 2,000 "civilians", more than half have the combat effectiveness of the regular army, which can completely sweep the bandits outside the city.

And the reason why Siglika didn't want to send troops is also very simple, the strength on the surface is far less useful than the hole cards hidden in his hand, Sigru and his robbers have always thought that there are only five hundred elites in Huder Manor, so that when Sigru and his "bandit army" besiege Snow City, Silica can lead the troops to eat the bandits outside the city in one fell swoop, and lead the army to defeat Sigru's bandits from the rear.

"How's it going?"

Celica stared at the battle map on the wall and asked without looking back.

"Except for the city of snowman, all the castles and watchtowers have been captured, except for the commander of Nodia and Baron Karazec who led the troops to retreat into the city, the other nobles are unknown, but our people have seen several of these teams flee to the border, and it is speculated that the other nobles have fled to other territories, and the other ......"

The answer was the butler of Hurdl Manor, the knight commander of Hurd, and the middle-aged man who took Sawyer and his party into the castle last time.

"What else? Don't spit out. ”

Sirika asked, but still didn't look back.

"In the early hours of this morning, Viscount Jory fled from the snowman, preparing to enter the territory of Phocles along the White River."

"Jory? The son of Holongner? ”

After hearing Jori's name, Celica finally turned around and asked, "How many people does that kid have with him?" ”

"Originally, there were seven cavalry guards, but one of them turned back because he couldn't get used to Viscount Jory's behavior, and also rescued the survivors of Pedagia's farm, and it is expected that Viscount Jory ......"

"Jory!" Sirika suddenly interrupted the butler's words, paused and emphasized again: "Jory, not Viscount Jory." ”

"Yes."

The butler suddenly realized that a guy who betrayed Xue Man, even if he was the nephew of the lord, did not deserve the title of viscount.

"Calculate the time, it shouldn't be to Ximu Town yet, you go and inform the people of Ximu Town, and ask them to ask Fayndal to make a move and capture Jory."

Sirika sneered, although this bandits' feast could be seen as the revenge of the 'Crowblade' Sigru, but if it weren't for Jory's misdeeds, it wouldn't have attracted such a gang of bandits.

If Jorian stayed in Snow City and contributed to this battle, as the lord's nephew, Sirika would not be able to deal with him even if he was unhappy.

But now this guy not only did not contribute to Xueman, but also quietly fled with a group of cavalry, which not only weakened Xueman's strength, but also severely damaged the morale of Xueman's army, this behavior has completely angered Sirika, she doesn't care who Jory is his nephew, she just wants to arrest him and teach him a good lesson.

The butler, who was originally tough and resolute, seemed a little hesitant after receiving the order: "My lord, if you ask Lord Faindal to help, will there be any trouble?" After all......"

"Don't scruple," Celica interrupted the butler with a sneer, "If it's a personal vendetta, such a trivial matter is not a violation of the contract. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand!"

The butler answered, turned and left the room, leaving Celica alone in the room, continuing to stare at the battle map and contemplate the battle plan.

At the same time, the Valsam Tower, after receiving the latest information, Higru and his army finally moved.

The coalition army that gathered seventeen large bandit regiments had more than 5,000 people, all of whom were good at fighting, not to mention the elite combat power of more than 1,200 people.

However, instead of sending people to intercept him, Sigru sent a large number of messengers to order the bandit armies besieging the other castles to converge in the direction of Snowman.

Of course, Sigru did not expect one of his orders to make the other troops abandon the castle they had already occupied and send troops to attack the city with him, after all, these people were only small bandit leaders before, and they only participated in this feast for a piece of the pie, not for some great ideal, and of course, Siglo did not expect any ideals from them.

In his letter, he promised that all those who sent troops would gain control of the castle they had previously occupied if they succeeded in capturing Xueman, while those who did not send troops would be attacked by others.

In addition to the benefits, Sigru also clarified the benefits in the letter, if there are not enough troops to capture Xueman City, once Xueman recovers, he will definitely not let go of these "rebels", and the rebels will only end up with two, killed on the battlefield, or hanged on the execution ground.

As Sigru expected, the next evening, the bandits from Fort Kurlim, the farthest away, joined the coalition army, and in just one and a half days, the coalition army under his command increased by more than 3,000 men, but it was only ......

"Humph! A bunch of cannon fodder! ”

In the makeshift command post, Sigru sneered and cursed, but soon, the sneer on his face turned into a cruel smile: "However, cannon fodder also has the usefulness of cannon fodder......
