The news that Arnold will lead an army to come to help, Dempsey was still relatively happy after learning about it. Although it is a little unpleasant that www.biquge.info not being able to get his own descendants as reinforcements, in any case, a corps of 4,500 people is already quite good in terms of overall strength.

In particular, it is worth mentioning that although the Arnold Legion is not as strong as the descendants of Chaos City, it is by no means a fish belly legion. After all these years of support, coupled with his own more or less background, Dempsey believes that Arnold's troops still have a certain combat effectiveness.

I still have a thousand men in my hands, and if I count Arnold's troops, I should be able to regain a foothold at the Iron Nail Post.

As for what happens after that...... Dempsey didn't think much about it, and it was useless to think too much, and it would depend on what the decision-makers at the top planned to do. If the south is the main target, then throw your forces and continue to fight; If the defense is the mainstay, some more troops will be added to come in.

Anyway, Dempsey's goal now is to last as long as possible until Arnold's arrival, and after reuniting with Arnold, he and Dane will have a good time maneuvering around the Iron Nail Height, and then wait for the situation to change.

Twenty-six and twenty-seventh, two days in a row repelled the offensive of the Dane Army, which made Dempsey somewhat relieved. What he fears the most is that Dane will take advantage of the momentum of taking the city center and directly conquer the south of the city in one go. But fortunately, his preparation in advance still had an effect, and the defense in the south of the city was certainly not foolproof, but at least it was stable.

He could also see that if Dane attacked with all his might, regardless of the cost of casualties, he would definitely not be able to hold these current defensive strongholds. But he could also see that Dane couldn't do that, and he was very concerned about casualties. That's the only thing Dempsey can rely on.

Mobilize troops and arrange defensive points according to the terrain of the area under their control...... Another busy night, and Dempsey prepared to wait for the third day of battle. As long as we survive today, and then tomorrow, I believe that Arnold's legions will reach the city before the first day of November. When the time comes, the pressure on yourself will not be so great!

On the 28th, several blocks, towers, and defensible houses in the south of the city, which had been designated as the first defensive point by Dempsey, were ready for a new day of fierce fighting.

However, I waited until it was dark, and there was no movement.

Dane's corps did not attack with as much fanfare as Demphy expected, and some small units launched some tentative offensives, which of course could not achieve much under the tight defense of Demphy's troops, but those Dane's troops who launched the offensive also didn't seem to care at all, and after two hits, they found that they had no chance to defeat it, so they retreated quite decisively.

Until dark, Dempsey's defensive line south of the city was hardly tested. In today's battle, the number of casualties on both sides may not exceed ten.

Obviously, he had spent the day peacefully, but Dempsey did not mean to be half happy in his heart: such an abnormal situation was completely different from what Dempsey expected. Is this a good thing? He doesn't think so! There must be a demon when things go wrong, and from Dane's many past records, Dempsey can see that it must not be an easy figure to deal with. He believed that the reason why Dane didn't attack must have been plotted somewhere else!

With a turn of his head, Dempsey thought of Arnold's reinforcements still on their way.

His face instantly became very unsightly, and he almost felt the urge to immediately lead the army to retreat and escape.

If Dane really set his sights on Arnold's reinforcements and chose to encircle the reinforcements, then things would be bad. The strength of Dane's troops, in the past few days of fighting, Dempsey has a personal experience. Arnold, who was unprepared, was in the undefended wasteland, in the process of marching, if he was attacked by Dane...... He wasn't at all optimistic that Alexander-Arnold would win.

Something had to be done!

Dempsey thought so, pacing anxiously back and forth in front of the table, but he couldn't think of anything - he himself was trapped in the city, what to do to save Arnold's troops?

After thinking about it for a long time, he thought of a solution that was not a solution:

"Colonel Hammer!"

His chief of staff walked in from outside, "What's wrong, Lord Overseer?" ”

"Let those bats rise into the air, fly north at all costs, find Arnold's troops for me, warn them, be careful with the march, Dain has most likely launched a surprise attack on them!"

Hearing Dempsey say this, Hamer, who also knew how important Arnold's support army was to the current Iron Nail Post, also changed his face. He didn't even have time to salute Dempsey, so he turned around and walked off to deliver the order.

Half an hour later, Hammer knocked on Dempsey's door again.

Looking at the pale face of his chief of staff, Dempsey's heart was also sudden. He stubbornly maintained a serious attitude and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Our Batriders have just taken to the skies when they are intercepted by the enemy's griffons and have been completely wiped out......"

The corners of Temple's mouth twitched, and he almost turned his back on breath.

"Too much deception!" He scolded, feeling powerless all over his body.

It's nightfall, and it should have been the best time for the Battroons to go out. He just wanted those little bats to send a message and remind them, but he didn't expect Dane to do so much.

He was now 100% sure that Dane on the other side of the city was targeting Arnold's troops! Otherwise, how could it be possible to defend against the Batriders in the middle of the night? You know, the most special characteristic of the Batrider is that it is good at night. He dared to pack the ticket, those griffons who intercepted the batriders, and they must have been equipped with the corresponding mage power, so that they could detect the movement of the bats at night.

"Lord Overseer...... What do we do now? Hammer asked cautiously.

Dempsey glared at him and said, "What else can I do?" Defend the city to the death! Dane may not be able to defeat Arnold, after all, Arnold's troops are not weak in combat, we hold on here, as long as we hold on, there is hope, Arnold's troops will definitely arrive! ”

He said something he didn't believe, but if he didn't, Dempsey really didn't know what he could say or do. (To be continued.) )
