Early in the morning, as soon as Durand woke up, he received bad news: "Lord Duland, last night, a team of assassins under the command of Lord Bobcat acted without permission, secretly left the camp, and attacked the Central Holy City overnight. ”
Duland's eyebrows stood up!
This disregard for discipline undoubtedly violated his great taboo, and no commander-in-chief of any army would allow such a thing to happen.
"The result?" Durand asked coldly.
As a result, eleven of the twelve-man squad were killed, and only the squad leader escaped...... However, ......" The person who came to report hesitated for a moment, as if he had something difficult to say, but under Duland's knife-like gaze, he still said honestly, "But that person seems to have been stimulated by something, his feelings are not normal, and he will be crazy after he comes back, and he will ...... is still talking crazy things, shaking the morale of the army, and has now been ordered to be arrested by Lord Bobcat. ”
Durand took a deep breath, calmed down and asked, "What did that man say?" ”
“…… He said that with our men we could not defeat the Holy City. He also said that all of us are going to die, and all of us will die at the hands of Yonghui. He...... And he said—"
Durand looked at the soldier in front of him who was in a cold sweat, and asked seriously and slowly: "You sue me, what else did that person say?" ”
The soldier finally gritted his teeth and reported truthfully: "He also said that you clearly want all of us to die, Lord of the City!" The Central Holy City is simply impossible to capture! When you order the siege of the city, you are pushing everyone to a dead end!! ”
Hearing this, Durand tilted his head slightly, stared at the top of the tent for a while, and remained silent.
He didn't speak, and the soldier didn't dare to speak, and fell to his knees in fear, for fear that Durand would kill him in anger.
After the scarred man who attacked the holy city at night escaped, he went berserk. He cried and scolded Duland, causing quite a commotion. But he didn't say what happened to him when he attacked the Holy City at night.
Scar Man doesn't say. The other soldiers were more curious. What can break the mind of an elite Assassin squad leader?
This incident has caused quite a stir. Undoubtedly, this is not a small blow to the morale of the army. And as similar rhetoric continues to proliferate, the negative effects will only grow.
"Alright, you go down first." Durand said calmly.
The soldier was like a pardon, and he trembled and bowed out of the tent, but he didn't expect to be called back to the tent by Durand as soon as he went out.
Durand folded his hands behind his back and commanded in an indifferent tone, "You sue the lynx." Let's not kill that stupid thing that attacked the Holy City at night. When the city is attacked tomorrow, I want that fool to see with his own eyes how the army of Mucheng chiseled open the gates of the Holy City! It's not too late to kill him again! ”
"Yes, yes!"
"Stand down."
After the soldier left, Duland's face turned gloomy a little.
He suddenly gritted his teeth and laughed ruthlessly: "Hell, isn't it the 'City That Never Falls'?" It's not that I didn't know that the Holy City had this name! If I dare to call, it means that I am sure to break the city, did I really not do my homework in advance?! Idiot thing!! ”
……
……
As the first male city of the Big 6. The scale of the Central Holy City of Yonghui is even greater than that of the City of Shepherds.
The holy city is divided into three layers inside and outside, and there are three walls in total.
In the first city wall, a large number of Yonghui nobles lived. The so-called "Yonghui nobles", that is, "nobles bathed in the light of divine light", they are different from the enshrined nobles in various parts of the Great 6. These Yonghui nobles have all produced powerful Yonghui professionals in history, some of them have become town knights, and some have served as the head or deputy head of the Yonghui Warlock Order. Even walked out of the big knight.
For example, after he became a Grand Knight, his family was given the name of "Yonghui" and moved from Big 6 to settle in the Holy City.
Further inside, in the second city wall, is the fiefdom of the legendary three dukes.
The three dukes are all powerful people, and they are not Yonghui professionals. It was only absorbed by the Holy City due to its great strength. The three major dukes lived within the second city wall, and both their strength and status were above many Yonghui nobles. It is separated by only one wall from the real Yonghui core high-rise that lives in the third city wall.
In a sense, this is also a method used by the core high-level of Yonghui to control the three major dukes - tying them under their noses and watching them to death. This avoids a lot of unnecessary troubles.
If the three Grand Dukes are allowed to freely display on the Big 6, they will inevitably become the kings of one side, and the Town Knights who are responsible for controlling the Big 6 Bafang will not be able to control them at all. If it doesn't work out, the three dukes may also become a second shepherd's city. This is something that Yonghui's core executives never want to see.
After all, the three dukes are not like the Yonghui nobles, they are not devout, on the contrary, the dukes, whose strength is comparable to that of the great knights, will often show their unruly side.
The third city wall, which is the inner city wall, is where the real Yonghui high-rise is located.
There is only one main building in the inner wall, which is a pure white holy tower that occupies an extremely large area, towering into the sky, no matter day or night, the top of the tower up to 10,000 meters high is lit with milky white light, illuminating the entire holy city.
Paladins, Grand Knights, Council members, Council members, Council of Elders, and the legendary "Heavenly Warlock Regiment", which gathers all the Yonghui Warlocks of the Great 6, are all in the pure white holy tower known as the Wonder of the Great 6.
Except for the eight Town Knights who were stationed in Big 6, almost all of the Yonghui elites and core high-level leaders were in that pure white holy tower.
The Holy Tower itself is said to possess powerful attack capabilities. And the "Heavenly Warlock Order"—the mystic warlock group that rarely leaves the White Tower, but its overall strength is claimed to be better than that of the Eight Knights of the Eight Towns combined—is the force that drives the Pure White Holy Tower.
The Yonghui nobles, the three dukes, and the pure white holy tower are like a triple ladder, reflecting the strict class division of the Holy City.
The way in which the classes were divided was very simple, even cold and crude—the triple ring wall was one higher than the other, and the walls were very strong. And the pure white holy tower, the glorious white tower, is the highest "fourth city wall".
"Stupid way of dividing!"
Durand looked at the continuous city wall that was close to a kilometer and said with a sneer.
It's early in the morning, the sun is rising, and the spring breeze is pleasant. The climate in the middle of Big 6 is far less severe than in the northwest, and the middle part of Big 6 is already full of green in early spring, but there will be two sleets in the northwest from time to time.
The army of the City of Shepherds was neatly displayed behind Duland.
Durand himself straddles a divine horse. Naturally, he stood in front of everyone, facing the outermost and first wall of the Central Holy City.
The outer wall is not tall, but a little short, only about ten meters, taking the meaning of "no barrier, welcome all human beings in the big 6".
Is this kind of wall worthy of being called a city that will never fall?
Duland's gaze continued to look into the distance and could see beyond. A second wall was erected, and that wall was much higher, at least fifty meters by sight. The third wall is not visible. However, the pure white tower in the center of the holy city stands on top of the sky, and from afar, you can see the brilliant milky white light on the top of the tower, like a round of sun.
The Holy City is huge. If viewed from above, compared to the behemoth of the city6, Durand and his army are like a small ant next to an elephant.
But at this time the elephant is very wary of ants.
Numerous heavily armed warriors stood on the outer walls, and Durand's eyes swept from left to right, and he saw the warriors with heavy shields in their hands, and the archers standing in three rows. I even saw a lot of high-ranking human professionals like spirit warriors and demon archers!
Yonghui's heritage and strength are truly extraordinary!
However, what attracted Duland's attention the most was not the silent and solemn large number of defenders on the city walls, but ...... A row of towers.
On the city wall, every ten meters or so, a small white tower more than two people high will be erected, and the appearance is exactly the same as the towering pure white holy tower in the distance.
The city is very large, and the walls are extraordinarily long. Ordinary soldiers in the herding city could not see the left and right ends at all.
On this impressively long city wall, there is a row of mini white towers, and there are tens of thousands of them that can be seen in the eye alone! In other directions that cannot be seen, there are many more small towers!
Duland's eyes narrowed.
"My lord, when are we going to attack?" The White Tiger rode up to the front and asked in a low voice, "Anyway?" I'll go out first, to find out the reality of the other party? ”
Hudson walked up from the other side, four meters tall and taller than Durand without riding at all, and in fact there was no horse that could bear Hudson's size and weight.
He thumped his fists hard. Haldson smirked and said, "Let me go, right?" I've never had a fight like this! Haha, it's fun to think about! ”
Durand was silent.
He stared at the miniature white towers on the city wall for a long, long time, and then he suddenly laughed and hurried forward. White Tiger and Halderson glanced at each other, both a little surprised, looking at the posture, is Durand planning to take the lead himself?
As Durand approached, the soldiers on the Holy City side became visibly nervous, and a middle-aged general who was facing Durand stared at Durand on horseback, and checked again in a low voice: "The city gate has been completely closed, right?" ”
"Yes, sir."
At this time, Durand was already approaching within eight hundred meters, and the middle-aged general's eyes burst into light, and he suddenly raised a command flag, shouting: "Demon archer, prepare!" ”
As the words fell, a group of demon archers with a range of more than 800 meters opened their bows and arrows in unison, and the brilliance of the magic arrows flashed into a piece!
"Oh?" Durand raised an eyebrow, and Lerma stopped.
The middle-aged general took a deep breath and said to the young man who looked like he was not even thirty years old, but he had already created many incredible miracles: "It's Duland. Sendrot? I'm Yonghui's Special City Defense Commander, Murray. Your Excellency, if you are wise, hurry up and retreat with your army, or else—"
"What if you don't?"
Durand interrupted the other party's words with a wave of his hand, and said nonchalantly, "Don't pretend, if the Holy City can be defended by you people, I, Durand, will be killed directly by hitting my head." What about the 'sacred bulwark'? Isn't it visible yet? ”
The middle-aged general's face changed slightly, "What did you say?" What sacred bulwark? ”
Durand shook his head and sighed, and said helplessly: "It's evil, why are you so ...... of idiots who treat me Durand as an idiot?" ”
As soon as the words fell, he rode on horseback, carried the reins in one hand, and formed a dragon mudra with the other hand, took a deep breath, and then aimed at the direction of the holy city is a fierce dragon breath!
