The Sixth Legion, which officially began the siege, showed a high level of discipline and quality. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

If you really want to say that the border guards of that year, why they were able to get unanimous praise within the kingdom army, it was purely based on real combat results. I can't help but be unconvinced.

However, the equipment is not better than that of the regular army, and the individual quality of the trained soldiers is not much surpassed, how can they play the same or sometimes better results as the regular army?

Just one reason: discipline, not afraid of death, dare to work hard.

Of course, there is no shortage of regular legions for these three reasons, but in the troops with a small proportion of the troops produced by the system in the legion, such as the Kingdom Guard Legion or the Fourth Legion, they are really not as good as Paran's troops in these three points.

And when the border guard has completed the regularization and reorganization, the equipment and treatment have come up, and the combat power will naturally become more powerful.

It can be said that Paran's Sixth Legion, in terms of overall strength, is estimated to be stronger than the King's Guards and the Fourth Legion.

They went forward and attacked the not-so-tall walls of Blackwood City, the artillery formation continued to fire from behind, and the two high-level mages of Apus and Miller, with a squadron of mages, continued to carry out spell support.

At the same time, in the middle of the military formation, there are two squadrons of chaplains, providing medical services to the army.

Of course, it is impossible for the precious magic casters to run directly to the front line of battle, they will be in the rear, waiting for some medical soldiers in front, and after judgment, drag back some soldiers who can be saved, and then the priests will use magic to heal.

It may not be realistic for a soldier who has been healed to return to the battlefield immediately, after all, although the priests have this ability, there are too many soldiers to treat, and it is impossible for them to waste all their precious magic power on individual soldiers. Their treatment is usually limited to stabilizing the wound and leaving the soldier free to recover when there is no danger to life or disability.

This is why Sindlaire's army, which suffered a lot of casualties, was able to replenish the lost troops at a fairly rapid pace after the war. In addition to the relatively strong ability to mobilize for war, which can quickly recruit and train to replenish the source of soldiers, these wounded soldiers, after being treated and returned to the army, are also a very important source of soldiers.

Moreover, the value of these veterans who have returned to the battlefield is obviously much higher than that of new recruits. As long as there is no disability, on the battlefield, a veteran is against several recruits, and it is definitely not a blow.

So, with a lot less worries, the Sixth Army launched a rather fierce offensive.

On the defense line of Blackwood City, a large number of soldiers leaned against the city walls and fought very brutal battles with the soldiers of the Sixth Legion. Especially the demons with purple lines on their faces and their bodies that are obviously bigger than normal humans, they are the fierce opponents that the Hindlaires will face.

Under the cover of spells, most of the soldiers of the Sixth Legion who rushed to the city several times were beaten back by these demons.

However, despite the fact that on the morning of the 29th, Paran's army experienced one defeat after another, he continued to order his soldiers to launch new offensives again and again.

Eventually, before lunch, the Sixth Legion captured the head and gates.

Seeing such a scene, Paran was quite excited: this is a good performance, the rebels with the help of the city defense, in the sixth legion's onslaught, only half a day can not withstand it, then after losing the city defense, in the follow-up battle, they may be more difficult to resist their own attack.

However, while being excited, he also had some muttering in his heart.

Conquering the head of Blackwood Castle, the Sixth Legion paid less than a thousand casualties, destroyed more than a thousand enemies, and at the same time conquered the head of the city.

The price was much less than he had imagined.

Originally, he thought that with the enemy having a dark archmage and more than thirty dark wizards and sorcerers, the casualty figure would have to be at least three to five times higher than it is now to win the war.

The number of casualties is low, which is certainly a good thing. However, this matter cannot be looked at so simply. During the siege, the Hindlaires faced significantly less resistance than previously expected. The most concentrated manifestation is that the enemy's very strong spell support is expected to be non-existent.

Indeed, during the siege, the Sixth Legion ran into some spell troubles. About a dozen or so powerful sorcerers used evil spells at the head of the city, causing a certain number of casualties among the legionnaires. However, when Master Miller and a team of mages launched a targeted attack on the warlocks in the city, this problem was basically solved, and those warlocks could not maintain the killing power of ordinary soldiers when someone also used spells to strike them.

The problem was solved, but it was too easy.

What about the sixteenth-level dark archmage mentioned in Firmino's intelligence? If, in the wave of attacks that had just attacked the city, there was a sixteenth-level archmage on the other side, I am afraid that one or two high-level spells would be enough to bombard the warriors of the Sixth Legion.

In other words, if the local archmage was present, even if they were able to conquer Blackwood City in the end, the price paid by the Sixth Legion would be much higher than it is now. Not only in terms of time, it is estimated that it will be delayed until the day after tomorrow, or even later, and the number of casualties among soldiers is estimated to have increased by more than three times.

So, here's the question: what about the dark archmage called the Eye of Death?

It stands to reason that this archmage should be the most important weapon before they transformed a large number of people into demons, right? Why haven't you seen him come out until now?

Palan's first reaction was that there was a conspiracy.

So, under his orders, the troops marching into the interior of Blackwood City moved much more cautiously and did not rush forward.

However, until his forces had wiped out all the resistance in Blackwood City, he hadn't seen the rumored Rank 16 Archmage, the other spellcasters, or the Dark Samurai of that squadron.

At the same time, his troops searched the entire city, but found no Count Ekra or important members of the Sade family, and only a few minor nobles were arrested.
