Hindlaire diplomat Allen, a series of political moves in Bauhinia, was very effective. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Not to mention anything else, just the name of righteousness, it stands firmly.

Although, Parrott claimed to inherit the title of Grand Duke of Florence a few days later than Eclallo. However, one is in the fir collar and the other is in the Bauhinia Castle, both claiming to inherit the title of Grand Duke, but who is more powerful, it is obvious.

The only advantage that can be regarded as an advantage for Ekra is his status as the eldest son of the Grand Duke. In this identity, she is more or less popular with the traditional aristocratic forces than Parrot's daughter.

However, the power of the Mafia Academy in Florence has now been activated. They frantically spread all kinds of news all over the principality.

To be more reliable than the facts, it is said that Aikra colluded with the Cursed Church, that he was corrupted, that he was mixed with evil forces such as demons and undead; Unreliable rumors, then there is no boundary.

He is full of evil, a murderer, who likes to imprison young children and rape and kill young girls. There is also a saying that he is gay, or simply that he has a mother-lover, has a leg with his biological mother, or something like that.

All in all, rumors are a thing, no matter whether there is a score or not, anyway, as long as it is a bad reputation and a basin, it is always right to deduct it on his head.

The spread of these bad reputations, Akra himself, and his forces, including the Church of the Damned, have no way to wash him clean.

It is difficult to say how effective the rumors were, but in any case they dragged down Ekra to a certain extent in Florence. The outcome of public opinion will directly determine the situation of the struggle in the future.

If the whole of Florence supported Eqla, then Palan, who had fallen into the sea of the people's war, would have fled back to the wasteland; And if all of Florence regarded Parrot as a true monarch, it would be a simple matter to recruit soldiers and men here.

Of course, neither of these two extremes is likely to be possible in a short period of time. What Alan did was to try to pull the facts in his favor.

To a large extent, this solved Palan's worries. Eren did a decent job in Bauhinia City, so he can completely put his mind at ease now and put all his energy into the next battle.

Two days after deciding to continue their march into the interior of the Fir Territory, Paran's army had already arrived outside Blackwood City.

The road has not been quiet in the past two days. Halfway through, the fir rebels put up quite tight resistance, and several towns and outposts along the way were occupied by the rebels as positions to block Paran's advance.

Thousands of soldiers guarded the towns and outposts, but in the end, they were all uprooted one by one by Palan, led by Paran, within two days.

Those rebel troops are still desperate to resist. It's just that, among them, there are no further traces of more demons, so with the original strength of these resistance forces, it is basically impossible to compete with the elite vanguard of Palan.

Therefore, although they had the advantage of terrain and occupied the city defense, they still had no way to form an effective resistance to Palan's offensive, which allowed Palan's vanguard army to hit the capital of the fir lord, the city gate of Blackwood City, in two days.

Blackwood City is a small city, and originally, it was just a small town that relied on timber resources as its main industry. It is surrounded by one of the finest and easiest timber resources in the Four Wild Forests.

Later, the development of the town became better and better, and the proportion of timber resources in the economic output of the fir territory also increased, so the city was simply built here.

Today's Blackwood City, as far as Paran knows, should have a population of about 20,000 to 25,000, which is not a small city, but it is not a big city.

And now, according to the information provided by Firmino, there should be three thousand soldiers guarding Blackwood City. However, among these 3,000 people, it is conservatively estimated that there should already be more than 1,000 demons.

Such a unit is not so easy to fight - at least, it is not like cutting melons and vegetables like a few battles fought on the road. In addition, the sixteenth-level Dark Archmage who existed in Blackwood City made it very difficult to attack the city.

Palan himself is not a master, and he is only ten professional levels until now. His subordinates, the high-level elven mage Banksy and the half-orc sword saint Bart were killed in battle, and they also suffered heavy losses among the top masters.

Now, the only things he can really handle are the human high-level mage Miller, and the drow high-level mage Apus, as well as the other three high-level warriors in the army who have reached level fourteen.

Such a high-level combat power is actually not weak. But against a level sixteen Dark Archmage...... Paran still felt a little weak.

The role that a mage can play on the battlefield is too great, especially in defending a city.

With the advantage of the army itself not too great, and the opponent still has such an intractable archmage, Paran felt that it was a very bad thing to forcibly lead the vanguard army to attack the city.

After launching a tentative offensive, leaving behind more than twenty corpses, a dozen dead on the opposite side, and some smoke and fire on the outer walls, Paran stopped the attack.

He was waiting for his legion to arrive. The vanguard he brought this time was only two wings and 3,000 men.

In the back, there are 7,000 people on the way.

Do the math, at this time, the main force of the Sixth Army should have entered the fir territory, right?

……

On June 29, the troops of the Sixth Army gathered and officially launched an offensive against Blackwood City.

Paran was mentally prepared for a difficult battle, and he was also prepared to be bombarded by the dark archmage in the city.

But despite this, he decided to attack.

The 10,000 elite soldiers of the Sixth Legion, even if they use their lives, as long as they dare to fight and rush, Blackwood City will not be able to stop them.

With a numerical advantage of 7,000 soldiers, and the enemy's formation, with no other elite strength other than the fir column and those transformed demons, a dark archmage can make the Sixth Legion suffer heavy losses, but it is impossible to block the attack of an entire legion on its own.

After all, the archmage is not a god, the icing on the cake is fine, but it is a little difficult to send charcoal in the snow, and he wants to change the outcome of a war by himself...... Even if it's a legend, it's going to be difficult.
