"Boom, boom, boom—"

After a series of volleys, the embankment watchtower in the port area outside the Gray Fog City had already collapsed, and with the screams of the sentries above, it was a watchtower built of a mixture of masonry and wood, which could not stop the salvo of artillery at all.

A large number of bricks and planks crackled into the sea, and the sentries on the breakwater, and the infantry of the city guards who operated the bed crossbows and ballistas, now threw down their weapons in fear, and quickly retreated in the direction of the port walls, apparently terrified by the volley of twenty sloops.

The infantry of this group of city defense teams had already lost their combat effectiveness because of their stable life, and the addition of the group of hooligans from the Rotten Algae Gang had even lowered the morale of these people.

In addition to maintaining law and order and deterring hooligan ruffians, they are actually not regular troops at all, and on the real city walls in the Outer Harbor District, the people responsible for the garrison and defense of the city walls are also the mercenary groups hired by the city hall at a great price, not these city defense teams who can only receive a meager allowance every month!

Whoever would include this garbage in the category of the regular army is the most stupid decision, and even in the concept of the regular defense line of Gray Mist City, the walls of the outer harbor area and the outer city are only used to reduce the enemy's strength and attack speed.

The real city walls, or the taller, entirely stone-built walls of the inner city, and the elite guards of the inner city above, are the real regular army and defensive forces.

Now that the breakwater in the Outer Harbor area is under attack, and rumors that the enemy has come with more than fifty warships, full of many infantry and may land in the Outer Harbor at any time, it has been spread at several important points in the inner city.

The elite guards of the inner city have all been assembled, and on the towering city walls, all the city defense weapons have been activated, the spears used in bed crossbows, and the stone bullets used in ballistas have been transported to these city defense weapons in the armory, and the towers have also been stationed with archers armed with war bows and crossbows, carefully guarding.

A large amount of supplies had already been transported in the markets and warehouses of the Outer Harbor and Outer Cities, and they had been attacked by the expeditionary forces of the South Trumming Sea, so they already knew how to achieve better defenses.

Men and their families who are physically fit and have no bad records in the outer city can be allowed to enter the inner city, but at the cost of becoming a member of the elite guards of the inner city, but instead of guarding the city walls, they join the trained troops and train intensively to become real soldiers as soon as possible.

Everything is being prepared nervously, but for the Gray Mist City, there is only an order, there is no panic at all, and even in the families of some gentlemen and nobles, banquets are still being held.

At the beginning, the expeditionary force in the South Trumming Sea, hundreds of warships, and tens of thousands of troops, in the end, was not a dismal defeat, and they could not even retreat back to their homeland, so they could only become pirates on Crash Bay.

And in the Governor's Castle, there have already been people who have gone to the Mage Tower, the extralegal force that was the first agreement in Gray Mist City, especially in the face of this kind of enemy that is about to threaten Gray Mist City, according to the earliest agreement, the Mage Tower should play its role.

After waiting for a short time, nearly fifty mages wearing black robes and shrouded in black hoods walked out of the mage tower and appeared on the top of several higher towers in the inner city, and just inside the mage tower, close to a hundred mages had also gathered, also waiting for the outcome of the war.

Grey Mist City belongs to the Governor, and it is also the same group of mages, who sacrificed more than thirty people to save Grey Mist City at the beginning, and the price is to stay here and become honorary nobles.

And now there are people who also want to break through the Gray Mist City and prepare to rewrite a new order, for the beneficiaries and makers of these orders, it is also the most direct confrontation of interests, and of course they can't just let their rights go away.

Therefore, there are more than fifty mages walking up to the towers of the city wall, and as long as they are stationed in these towers, then they with their occult magic can easily withstand hundreds of elite siegers, because these mages also know that no army can hold up for too long in the face of the magic they can unleash without crumbling.

But this is not the only line of defense in Grey Mist City, because in the square outside the Doge's Castle, a knight order of more than 500 people is gathering, everyone is wearing heavy armor, even the war horse under the crotch is also wearing fine vest, holding spears and long swords, looking extremely strong.

This is the noble knights of Grey Mist, each member has a fighting spirit, they are like the sharpest knives in Grey Mist, they can cut through the front of any enemy, let them know what is the deepest fear!

Of course, these troops cannot be used at will, and any member of the Knights represents the power of a nobleman, and if they are all lost on the battlefield, it represents the collapse of the noble forces of Gray Mist City, which is more embarrassing than the fall of Gray Mist City and being captured by the enemy.

It's just that no one would think that something would really happen in the inner city, even if they knew that the enemy was from Cape City, and had the sharp weapons of the once dwarven kingdom, and a large number of artillery and muskets.

Their walls are not those simple walls built outside, the whole body is made of stones, eight meters high and four meters thick, even if the magician's spell bombards them, they can't do much damage, but in fact, these walls are built to defend against heavy catapults!

And in a few military camps in the inner city, the troops of nearly a thousand people have not yet appeared, and there are even many dwarves who are busy before and after, as if they are preparing something.

In the warehouse of the barracks, thousands of shrunken and elongated dwarven muskets are neatly placed on the shelves, including more than twenty bronze-cast dwarven cannons, which are also quietly placed inside.

For today's battle, Grey Mist City is ready, and even everyone has already made up their minds, as long as the attack of Cape City is unprepared and can't inflict heavy damage on them, then it's time for them, the Grey Mist City Expeditionary Force, which has replanned its troops, to reappear on the east coast!
