The battle came so suddenly, before dawn and night was about to pass, the soldiers on the city walls were not concentrating and vigilant because of the long vigil, and everyone in the city was also in a deep sleep, the orc army launched an attack on the city of Parnes.

When the orc's siege weapons smashed against the city walls and burst into a thunderous roar, everyone in the city was carried out, and for a moment, the city was full of noise, until the rapid alarm bell rang in the center of the city that those who were awakened woke up to understand what had happened.

When Joanna was woken up, she saw Zachary standing by the window looking at the burning city, and when she heard the alarm bell outside, she hurriedly picked up the armor that was placed next to the bed.

Hearing the sound of rustling and dressing behind him, Zachary glanced back at Joanna, who was quickly dressed and armored, and nodded slightly when he saw her swift movements, "Joanna, the orcs are attacking the city, and the situation seems to be a little bad." ”

"Yes." Armed with the long sword hanging from the bedside, Joanna walked over to Zachary's side and looked out the window at the chaotic city.

In the distance, there was a fierce battle on the city wall, and the army commanders in the surrounding barracks kept yelling at the soldiers below to get up from their tents and assemble, and groups of soldiers rushed through the streets under the windows to the city wall with hurried footsteps.

Glancing outside, Joanna knew that the strength of the orc's attack seemed to be beyond the expectations of the defenders on the city wall, she didn't say anything, and after putting the sword of the thorn flower on her waist, Joanna turned around and opened the door and walked downstairs.

As soon as she walked downstairs, Joanna saw that her father Rod was already dressed and armoured, and was preparing to go out with his weapon in hand, when he heard the sound of someone coming downstairs, and he glanced back.

When he saw Joanna looking fully clothed and ready to go out with him, Rod frowned slightly, looked up over Joanna's head and glanced at Raphael who appeared in the same state at the staircase, "You two will go back and stay for me." ”

"Dad, why, listening to the voices outside, you know that the situation in the city is a little bad now, why don't you let us go out to help." Joanna, who was about to go out with her father, was stunned when she heard her father say this, and then shouted dissatisfied.

"Hmph, unless we adults are dead, it won't be your turn to fight. And I originally said that I would just take you to the front line to feel the atmosphere of the war, not let you fight with me. ”

Finally, he glared at the two little ones in warning, and if time did not allow Rod to teach too many lessons, he turned around and opened the door and went directly into the noisy world outside the house, leaving the two little ones in the room glaring at each other helplessly.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves outside the door and drifting away, Joanna dissatisfiedly slammed her long sword on the table, sat down, and listened to the hurried footsteps that came from time to time outside the house, Joanna turned her head to look at Raphael.

"Raphael, what are we supposed to do, just listen to those seniors in the army fighting there, and then we sit here dumbfounded."

"Otherwise, what do you want, Uncle Rhodes has made it very clear, our grade is still too young." Raphael shrugged helplessly, his heart was like a cat's claw scratching, the boy was always hot-blooded.

Joanna kicked Raphael's leggings angrily, her little face clearly showed that her aunt was unhappy, but she only lost her temper at Raphael, and she also knew that this was a front-line battlefield, not a place where she could lose her temper.

As time passed, the sounds of battle outside the house showed no signs of abating, but became more and more intense. Joanna's house was also located in the barracks, and the heralds who were running back and forth to relay the battle situation could clearly be heard as their footsteps became more and more hurried, and the sound of orders from the barracks became more and more nervous.

The voices made Joanna and Raphael more and more curious about the battle on the walls, but because of Rod's warning, they had to stay in the small house.

After sitting for a long time, Joanna couldn't suppress the curiosity in her heart, walked to the door, opened the door, and walked out of the door with her little head, looking at the figure running back and forth near the street, "Raphael, it seems that the situation is getting worse and worse." ”

Raphael walked to Joanna's side, and saw the soldiers gathered in an open space not far from the house, these soldiers had just been gathered by their commander, and saw a herald running out of the courtyard where Joanna had seen them yesterday, and received the order of the herald, and the commander immediately turned around and yelled at his soldiers, and immediately ran with his team towards the section of the city wall that was in danger of being supported in battle.

Raphael glanced up at the sky that had begun to glow, and he saw that the fire was getting bigger and bigger over the northern part of Paynes City, and there should have been orcs rushing into the city, it seemed that this time the orcs were about to overwhelm the defenders in the city.

The two little guys crowded at the door and watched the hurried soldiers keep passing in front of them, until they saw that the lightly wounded soldiers who were arranged to recuperate in the barracks were also assembled, the two little guys had no experience, and they also confirmed the conjecture in their hearts, I am afraid that the battle situation has really reached the point of irreparability, otherwise these wounded soldiers will not be gathered.

At this moment, Joanna suddenly saw a group of people coming out of the courtyard where the heralds kept running in and out, led by a middle-aged man wearing a mighty armor and followed by an elite guard. Joanna pulled Raphael beside her and motioned for Raphael to pay attention to the man.

"It should be the general that Uncle Rhodes said they were talking about, the commander of the Fourth Legion." When he saw the general pass by, the soldiers around him stopped and saluted, Raphael guessed.

Hearing Raphael say this, Joanna nodded, it should be that, otherwise those soldiers would not respect him so much.

Jonathan, who was about to say something when he walked to the wounded, suddenly noticed that there was an unfamiliar gaze looking at him, turned his head suspiciously, and looked at the street not far away, and when he saw two little heads crowded at the door staring at this side, he frowned slightly and walked over with a few soldiers.

"Raphael, this general has come over!" Seeing that the general glanced here and then came over with a few soldiers, Joanna hurriedly pulled Raphael and retracted his body back into the door, "Why did he come here!" ”

Raphael didn't know what the general was doing here, so he could only shake his head in confusion, and then when the two little ones wanted to stick out their heads to look outside, they suddenly found a tall figure blocking the door.

"Ahh Joanna was taken aback, and her two small hands hurriedly covered her small mouth, staring blankly at the middle-aged man at the door.

When Jonathan saw clearly the immature faces of the two little guys crowded at the door, his face showed a hint of innocence, and he turned his head to the soldiers behind him and shouted: "Didn't you let you dismiss all the old and young civilians in the city from the city a long time ago, why are there still two little guys here!" ”

The soldiers in the back glanced at each other, and they didn't know why the two children were here, and the demobilization of civilians in the city had been completed a few days earlier.

"Well, we came with my dad Rod, and we're not kids, we also want to fight and dedicate our strength." Seeing a trace of dissatisfaction on the face of the general at the door, and wanted to scold the soldiers behind him for working irresponsibly, Joanna hurriedly explained for them.

"Rod? Damn, what does this guy think, he actually brought the child to the front. Hearing Rod's name, Jonathan was stunned for a moment, and then scolded in a low voice.

Glancing at the two little guys, Jonathan turned his head and said a word to a soldier, then he was about to turn around and leave, the defense line in the northern city has been broken through, and the current situation makes him have no time to care about how to deal with the two little guys here, since Rod chose to bring his children to the front line, then he will have to bear the responsibility for his choice - once the city gate is broken, Jonathan himself doesn't know what the ending will be, just look at the situation in front of him, Jonathan is ready to live and die with the city with his legions.

"That, you are the commander of the legion, general, can you take the two of us up together, I also want to dedicate my strength to this city, I am very strong, you see!" Seeing Jonathan and the soldiers preparing to leave, Joanna suddenly shouted, and in order to make Jonathan believe her words, she raised her little arm to be outdone.

Turning his head to see Joanna's performance, Jonathan shook his head and put his hand on the little girl's head, "Hey, little guy of the Rhodes family, aren't we adult men joining the army to protect little ones like you." You little ones shouldn't be on the battlefield when we're all dead, or what's the point of us. ”

"But general, isn't the situation already very critical now, and after all the uncles have fallen in front, what is the difference between us hiding in the back and going in front?"

Jonathan thought about it and found that what the little guy said was indeed right, and when he and his soldiers were killed, where could the two little guys go.

"General, I promise you, the two of us will never run around, we are serious about helping, one more person is one more strength." Seeing that Jonathan didn't speak, Joanna knew that she was about to convince him, and hurriedly spoke to ensure that she would not cause trouble.

Seeing the sworn expression on Joanna's little face, Jonathan shrugged, admitting that he was persuaded by the little one, and that it was better to stay with him than to stay in this place that would sooner or later be swept away by the flames of war.

"Alright, little one, take your guys and follow me, but I can't guarantee the safety of you two when we go to the front."

Hearing Jonathan's request, Joanna hurriedly ran back to the table, picked up her sword, and pulled Raphael to follow Jonathan.
