Chapter Eighty-One: The Morton Crisis

In fact, Ribis has already thought of a plan to attack Seoul! Seoul has just been built, and there were originally only four or five thousand soldiers in the city, so the food reserves must be very limited, but now that twenty or thirty thousand soldiers are moving in, the food consumption in Seoul has increased by seven or eight times compared to before!

It was enough food for half a year, but now I'm afraid it's not enough for a month! And only need to besiege Seoul, besiege but not attack, a month later, the Seoul soldiers will either come out of it and fight on their backs, or choose to starve to death in the city, either option, leave the city wall defense, this battle will be too much to fight!

And the reason why Ribis started today's war, naturally, is just like Upton said, is to consume the strength of the Fifth Army! Ribis is not the general of the Third Army at all, he is only a general of the Fourth Army Brigade, and his status is originally the same as Upton, but just now Upton said that their general has not appeared for a long time, and he is breaking through in retreat, and once the general breaks through to a gold-level warrior, I am afraid that he will be directly recalled to the kingdom and become a general existence of the kingdom!

And he, Ribes, is favored by the general, so he can sit on the position of acting commander of the army, and as soon as the general leaves, won't he be able to turn into a regular official? Therefore, I am afraid that Ribis has long regarded the Third Legion as his own bag in his heart, and since it is his own, he must get rid of the power of others!

It is not difficult to imagine that this Upton must have been loyal to other masters, or simply threatened the position of the commander of the legion, so that today's battle was born!

Bruce looked at the walls of Seoul, and then at the retreating Herman Third Army, and couldn't help but sigh. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Conspiracy, deceit! Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes! The war has not yet been won here, and the infighting has resumed there, and the reputation is eye-catching, perhaps, this is also the root of human inferiority......

Bruce waved his hand violently, since the Third Legion left in the royal capital has been successful, and Duke Ed has also sat on the throne as he wished, just waiting for the coronation ceremony, then according to the agreement, this Morton should indeed be given to Herman, so what do you have to worry about? The First Army and Seoul, leave it to him to deal with Libis!

Bruce turned his horse's head, no longer hesitated, and directly led his army out of Moren Province!

"Ding, the defensive battle of Seoul is over, in this battle, a total of 792 enemy second-order and fourth-level soldiers were defeated, and 22,176 distributable experience points were obtained, 6,723 enemy second-order and fifth-level soldiers were defeated, and experience points were obtained 201,690 points, and 1,632 enemy second-order and sixth-level soldiers were defeated, and 52,224 distributable experience points were obtained. A total of 276,090 distributable XP points were earned. Due to the heavy reliance on other armies, there is no experience point reward coefficient. A total of 276,090 distributable XP points were earned in this battle. Earn 2,760 merit points! ”

The system prompt sound reached Gretel's ears, and the corner of Gretel's mouth, who was thousands of miles away, showed a smile of relief, and in front of him, five warriors firmly locked him!

"Gretel, but with the strength of the fourth-order peak, do you really think that Custer is no one?"

Gretel's natal sword circled around the air, and said in a dashing manner, "Don't talk nonsense, if you don't obey military orders, you are a traitor, and since you are a traitor, what's the use of leaving you!" ”

The natal sword flashed, and Glitter fought with the five again!

And half a day later, Jia Xu heard a system prompt in his ears again!

"Ding, the ironclad pikemen are summoning......"

"Ding, the ironclad crossbowman is summoning......"

It is said that after the withdrawal of the Third Army of Herman, it did not leave the boundary of Seoul, I don't know whether it was supported by the troops within the Herman Kingdom, or the Third Army was recruited on the spot, and the Third Army Corps, which had been constantly lost, was restored to its full strength in one day!

Sixty-two thousand five hundred soldiers, of which 40,000 were divided into north and south sides, surrounded Seoul, while 22,000 soldiers, led by Ribis himself, went all the way north!

On November 27th, Herman's 1st and 2nd Army Brigade arrived at Hagen City, Hagen City surrendered directly, and on the 28th, Ribis arrived at Danlin City, Danlin City fought to the end, and in the afternoon of the same day, the city was broken and killed, and Ribis slaughtered the entire city high-level! On the 29th, Ribis resisted the main city of Moulton! The main city of Morton swore not to surrender, the main city-level defenses were all opened, and a signal for help was issued!

"General Cliff, under the repeated battles, the city guards of the main city of Morton are less than five thousand, and Ribis is leading two armies to attack in person, the entire main city of Molton, even if it has a magic tower defense, but at this moment, I am afraid that it has fallen, and the credibility of the signal for help issued by Morton is really a problem!" In the hall of Seoul, Jia Xu was full of seriousness.

Opposite him, Cliff clenched his fists and his eyes were resolute: "General Jia Xu, the main city of Moulton is not only the most well-defended city in the entire Morton territory, but also the largest city in Moulton, with a population of more than three million, if we lose this ancient city, it is not as simple as a defensive fortress, what is lost will be the hearts of the people of the entire Morton Province!" ”

Cliff patted his chest: "Now that the kingdom is in trouble, it is the time for us to rely on the strength of the people, if Helton is allowed to take Molton, then even if we finally defeat the Herman Legion, we have lost our follow-up strength and completely lost this war!" ”

Jia Xu frowned, the people's heart, what is the people's heart? Cliff is right, as a large city, if Morton is owned by them now, with Cliff's prestige, with the king as the call, ascend to the heights, join the army, this is countless, not to mention that all the soldiers lost by the First Army have recovered, maybe they can continue to expand the establishment and increase the strength of the army! But......

Cliff walked up to Jia Xu: "General Jia Xu, I know that you are worried that Morton has fallen, and the signal released by the enemy is just a pretense, but, General Jia Xu, think about it, we are now besieged by the enemy, and Ribis has made up his mind to trap us until we are cut off from food and grass, and we have no way out, I have to say that their plan is also extremely correct, so he still needs to take great pains to use Morton to release a signal to lure us?" ”

Ja Xu left in front of Cliff and sat down on the throne, "...... General Cliff, there are 40,000 legions besieged around Seoul, and it is not easy to get out! ”

Cliff's eyes flashed: "Therefore, this is a big gamble!" General Jia Xu, the grain and grass in the city are enough for our two armies to eat for a few days? Jia Xu was silent, how many days? Less than seven days! Because the farmland outside the city was occupied by the enemy, not to mention copper coins, even a unit of grain and grass could not be produced, and the grain and grass in the city were not enough, even if they were frugal, it would be less than seven days!

Cliff continued: "I know that General Jia Xu is full of confidence in the city lord of Gretel, but the agreed two days have long passed, and the city lord of Glitter has not returned for a long time, I dare not say that the city lord of Glitter will return in vain, but he has not come back yet, I am afraid that he has encountered some sudden situation!" Our army can't wait any longer, and instead of starving to death in the city in seven days, it's better to give it a go! ”

Cliff suddenly knelt down on one knee towards Jia Xu! "20,000 soldiers, I only need 20,000 soldiers, as long as we take the main city of Moulton, we can usher in a glimmer of life!!"

Jia Xu was shocked, and hurriedly got up and helped Cliff up, with a bitter face: "General Cliff, what is this doing?" You are the general of the unified army, and the First Army is your troops, so you naturally have the right to transfer, General Cliff, you must not perform this great gift, if the lord knows, you must scold me to death......"

Cliff stood up and said sincerely: "Although I am the general of the unified army, but I lack experience and am arrogant, if it weren't for the Gretel City Lord leading the army to rescue, I would have died at this moment, I said at the beginning, the entire First Legion is under the dispatch of the Gretel City Lord, then, you Jia Xu Military Division, is my Cliff's top boss!" To send troops or not, I must have your consent! ”

Jia Xu admired that although Cliff was a newcomer, made a big mistake and almost buried the First Legion, but after the blow, he was humble and sincere. A dignified general of the unified army, willing to be his own little Seoul military advisor, this courage is not something ordinary people can have!

Jia Xu sighed and looked at Cliff solemnly, "General, this matter is a big matter, can I think about it for a moment?" ”

Cliff nodded, "I'll go and order 20,000 soldiers and horses, if General Jia Xu agrees, I will immediately go out of the army, if General Jia Xu insists on refusing, I will definitely obey!" ”

Cliff left the hall. Jia Xu immediately came to the governor's mansion at the back of the hall. "Lord, lord......" Jia Xu called tentatively twice, for two days, he would contact Gretel every evening, but for some reason, Gretel never responded. A few shouted, but the spar on the desk in front of Jia Xu did not react, he sighed, it seems that this decision is going to be made by himself!

"Wenhe?" Suddenly, Gretel's hoarse voice came from the hedron!

Jia Xu's spirit was shocked: "Lord, I finally contacted you!" You, it's okay! ”

The hoarse voice made Jia Xu's heart suddenly tighten!

"I'm fine, and I'm on my way back to Seoul now, how's the battle going?"

Jia Xu briefly explained what had happened in the past few days, especially focusing on Cliff's proposal!

Gretel's extremely tired voice came: "Let him go, you fake attack from the main gate, attract the attention of the enemy, let the enemy think that you are running out of food, ready to fight with all your might, and General Cliff led an army of 20,000 from the back door, Cliff can't stay with us all the time, even if they are grateful to us for their rescue, they represent the kingdom army after all, if you can take Moulton, our two cities attack and defend each other, it is also excellent!" ”

"Yes, lord, I will arrange it!"

"General Gretel, you better go to the back and rest, you haven't closed your eyes for two days and two nights!" Suddenly, an unfamiliar roar came from the other side of the hedron.

Glitter said softly: "Wenhe, Cliff takes away 20,000 troops, the enemy will be very likely to attack the city, one day, the last day, hold on, our army is coming!" ”

Jia Xu suddenly had an impulse in his heart, he stayed with Gretel for so long, and unknowingly became extremely dependent on him, and now Gretel has become the backbone of Seoul, as soon as he heard that he was coming back, Jia Xu immediately raised an impulse to greet him, "Lord, the army?" How big, army? ”

"Hahaha, 50,000 troops!"

Glitter was tired, but his voice was full of pride!
