30. The city is broken

Just as Ash and Nana were hiding from the Qatar Guards in the jungle, they didn't know that the situation in Fit City was already precarious.

Outside the western part of Fit City.

This is the direction of the city near the border line of the empire, and it is also a concentrated residence of the poor, at such times on weekdays, there should be no movement here, not even a single light can be seen, because most of the poor people living here are engaged in extremely hard heavy physical work during the day, and they have no energy or ability to sing and enjoy the colorful and rich nightlife like the rich people in the city.

But now, it is a scene as bright as day, countless figures are running around in the dirty streets, screams, blood, and fire have become the main theme here, countless houses have been burned, and the terrified and desperate residents are either screaming and falling in pools of blood, or being pressed into the corners and humiliated, those lawrence imperial soldiers who are usually well-trained and disciplined, all turned into cold-blooded and ruthless demons at this time!

What a hell on earth!

But in the midst of such a bad situation, a group of hundreds of horsemen stood quietly on one of the widest main roads, watching with great interest what was happening around them, as if in their eyes those tragedies were just a show.

The commander of Lawrence's Third Legion, Tie Xiong, was a swarthy man in his thirties with a resolute face, and he was sitting on horseback at this time, wiping his sword with a smile on his face, and he only felt that the screams and curses that came from time to time in his ears were so pleasant.

Beside him, there were rows of dilapidated houses, and for those houses that could be seen at a glance as poor families, he didn't even have the ** to plunder, and not even far from him, there was a woman suffering from the humiliation of five or six soldiers, and he didn't bother to look up and 'admire' it.

Carefully wiping the saber on his waist, and inserting his backhand into the scabbard, Tetsuo looked up at the direction of the west gate of Fit City, where the battle was in full swing in front of him.

Although the city of Fit does not occupy a large area, it is also an important border town, so in addition to the east gate to the interior of the empire, the rest of the city gate areas in the west, south, and north directions each have a peripheral city area and an inner city gate.

The main city gate on the west side had been breached by him two days ago, although it took him a lot of time and effort to deal with the defenders inside, and by the time he was ready to continue attacking the inner city gate, the other party's army had already recovered a little, but it was not a big problem.

It is really not too difficult to capture this gate, which is more than one size smaller than the main city gate and has never been used, even if the opponent's soldiers are already in place, without the tall walls of the outer city, and the stones and woods, even if the opponent's number is doubled, Tie Xiong can easily deal with it.

So at this time, Tie Xiong didn't even need to give any tactical orders, just waited there patiently and relaxedly, waiting for the moment when the city wall was breached.

Sure enough, less than half an hour passed, and with a loud 'boom', a huge gap opened under the knocking pillar in the hands of his soldiers!

The next moment, countless soldiers poured in like hornets from that gap, they fought and ran, and as far as the eye could see, it was almost a sea of blue people, which was the color of their Lawrence Emperor's armor.

In contrast, the soldiers of the Vertes Empire in silver armor, except for those who were already lying on the ground, were really pitiful, anyway, from Tiexiong's vision, all that could be seen was that there were still dozens of people gathered around the city, making the last useless struggle.

"Get the order down and get ready to go into the city! Tonight, we'll spend the night in the Lord's Fort in this city of Fit! ”

I saw Tie Xiong untie the wine bag on his waist, tilt his head and pour it hard, then wipe his chin and laugh and say, his words are full of joy and happiness.

Originally, the purpose of his Third Army's attack on Fite City was just to divert the attention of the defenders of Fite City and contain them by the way, so that Qatar could successfully sneak into the rear and attack Varoser City.

It's just that when he traveled less than thirty miles away from Fite City, he suddenly received a report from the spies who had been lurking in Fite City in advance, and got a great news!

That news is ---that Mo Feng, the city lord who has always been like Lao Wang Ba, who has always been like Lao Wang Ba, and the mercenaries are cowering in the city, for some reason, has transferred almost all the defenders in Fite City out of the city in the past few days, and even he himself is not in the city at this time!

As soon as this news arrived, Tie Xiong, who had always known how to seize the opportunity, naturally would no longer only carry out a feint attack step by step, and almost without thinking about it, after determining the reliability of the news, he immediately mobilized all his troops and rushed straight to the city of Fit!

And when his army rushed to the foot of the city of Fit, he found that except for the occasional scattered arrows falling from the city, there was no decent counterattack, and even he stood so far away that he seemed to be able to hear the panicked shouts in the city!

The Third Army led by Tie Xiong had a total of 30,000 people, in addition to a total of 2,000 logistics support personnel, a total of 10,000 infantry, 3,000 archers, 2,000 crossbowmen, and 3,000 cavalry, all of which were well-trained and well-equipped.

In less than an afternoon, without the need for the infantry of the Lawrence Empire to assemble the trebuchet, with only two siege logs carried by dozens of people, they broke through this important frontier town that had been visited more than a dozen times, but never had a chance to take it!

Tetsuo only felt that he had really been favored by the heavens.

Originally, before leaving, he was still reluctant, and even hated itchy, that damn Qatar, by virtue of his favor by His Majesty the Emperor, forcibly snatched the task of secretly attacking Varosese City from his own hands, and also forced the thankless task of feint to attack Fett City to himself, thinking that this time must be a difficult mission, but he didn't want to fall a big pie from the sky!

Suddenly, Tie Xiong even felt that the Qatar that had been fighting with him for more than five years had become less annoying.

Tie Xiong was thinking so, the Verte defenders in the area of the west gate of the city in front had been slaughtered, and when the messenger in front came to explain the situation, he looked up to the sky and smiled, waved his big hand, and led the soldiers behind him to move forward......

"Lord of the City, the Western District has completely fallen!"

"Lord of the Castle! Our soldiers suffered heavy casualties and were almost unable to withstand the enemy's attack! ”

"Lord of the City, countless people have gathered outside the City Lord's Fort and asked you to open the castle and accommodate them for refuge!"

"Lord Castle, the enemy has captured the ...... of Center Street"

In the City Lord's Fort, one bad news after another reached Mo Feng's ears, making him anxious.

He had just received the information that Lawrence Emperor's ** team had appeared outside the city of Fett, but because of the order of 'catch Ash and others no matter what', the defenders in the city were scattered very widely, and even drilled wherever they were remote, and there was no fixed route, let alone a convenient way to contact, so by the time the messengers searched for troops all over the mountains and fields, and finally gathered seventy percent of the soldiers back to the city, Simon had been broken by the army of the Lawrence Empire.

Now, the opponent's army is still inevitably rolling into the inner city, and the defenders are engaged in fierce street fighting, this situation has lasted for almost an hour, and the casualties of the defenders of Verte City are getting bigger and bigger, and they are already close to the bottom line that Mo Feng can accept.

Mo Feng knew very well in his heart that at this point, it was impossible for Fett City to be able to keep it, in the past, he was able to resist the invasion of the Lawrence Empire, all thanks to the thick walls of Fett's outer city, as well as all kinds of fortifications that have been prepared there all year round!

And now? Not to mention that the combat power of the soldiers of the Vertes Empire is not as good as the wolf-like Lawrence soldiers, and even the troops who were driven out by him to hunt down Ash before are still close to 20% of them have not been rushed back, how can they fight with others?

"Mr. City Lord, it's useless for you to be in a hurry like this, according to me, it's better to ask someone to open the gate of the City Lord's Fort first, let the people in, and then concentrate on guarding this place alone, maybe you can hold it for a few more days!"

As he was anxious, a pleasant voice like a silver bell suddenly sounded in his ears
