On the afternoon of 23 July, the fourth day of the battle, the Swadias launched a tentative siege. The battle, which lasted only an hour, ended with the withdrawal of the Swadia side, with the besiegers dropping siege ladders and 200 corpses and retreating to camp. The Svadia side found that the city of Viruga, which was not yet well equipped with its current forces, decisively terminated the meaningless attrition and began to wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Kane did not participate in today's siege, and in his opinion, the marshal was merely measuring the strength of the defenders' long-range attacks. One or two hundred men is equivalent to a full army of lords, but in such a general battle, it is only the price of a temptation. Kane had a sense of uneasiness these days, like he was missing something important, but he couldn't remember.

"It's hard work, go take a break, and we'll take care of the rest." After receiving a report from the south, Kane received the bad news that one of his own reconnaissance legions had been crippled and three numbered men had been captured, and it was Lord Reed of Salander who was in charge.

Some time ago, the boiling news spread in the circle of numberers, Lord Reed, who is known as a monster, was besieged by the numberers of the Rhodok camp, resulting in the annihilation of the legion and his own capture. Congratulatory messages were sent from the numberers of various countries to celebrate the fact that the Great Demon King Reed had finally been overthrown, but then the news came that Lord Reed had been redeemed. Everyone is speculating about how much Lord Reed paid to let Roddock spare his great enemy.

"It's only been a long time before that pervert pulls out another legion. Although the people of the third team are not as strong as us, the gap should not be big, how can they be beaten away by one person. The glasses adjutant sighed in surprise when he got the news.

"Don't speculate with common sense that the Reed Lord, the lord who owns the city is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Moreover, Salander was the only one numbered, and he monopolized the resources of an entire country, and that man alone stopped the joint siege of Rhodok and us. "Kane is not surprised at all, the guy who can take out 100,000 gold coins will not keep a back hand for himself? At the very least, the garrison of the city must be left behind. He was surprised by the combat effectiveness of the Reed Lord Legion.

According to the information returned, Lord Reed did not have an advantage in strength at that time, and the infantry as the main force in terms of troops was also restrained by his own cavalry, and there were many numbered people and their retinues, but they were suppressed by a small group of obviously miscellaneous legions on the other side.

Kane rubbed the weapon at his waist, the cold feel of the axe that calmed him down.

"Frost Battle Ax (One Hand): The material is made with the rare materials of cold steel and cryolite, which are specially crafted to form a magic circle with the stacked lines. The axe freezes blood and prevents it from being corroded by bloodstains, making it an excellent weapon.

Introduction: It can be used to stop bleeding urgently when injured"

Kane spent a great deal of money to include this weapon as a space item, and during this time he literally slept beside him. According to the numbered person who returned from the defeat, Lord Reed had a powerful ranged move that seemed to be related to the weapon in his hand.

"No wonder you're not interested in this weapon at all, and if you have a better one, you're a monster. Fortunately, he was just one person, and a group of unfashionable Rhodok numberers could deal with it. Kane gave himself a reason to comfort him, but he didn't know that Hu Bin was not fighting alone now.

Originally, in Kane's expectation, after Salander received the news of Swadia's war, although he would declare war immediately, he would not act immediately, at least he had to wait and see the situation before making a decision. And their plan is to take Viruga in one go, end the battle while the other countries do not react, and then turn back and rely on Veruga's city defense to resist Salander, and at that time it is very likely that they will diplomatically force back Salander, who has no interests to be profitable. Even if Salander reacted and immediately sent troops to interfere, it would be a big deal to give up the siege of Viruga City and withdraw to the vicinity of Fort Argolon.

I believe that the Salander army from afar will not just run away because of the Swadia army, they will definitely take over the work of Swadia and continue to plot against Viruga, and at that time it will be up to each person to decide who will die, maybe the Kujit people are willing to intervene under their own reminder.

I have to say that Kane's two-handed plan is quite exciting, perhaps related to his character, he likes to be upright. In many cases, conspiracy is often more effective than conspiracy, but it is a pity that this time others are superior. Kane underestimated King Rhodok's courage, and with his strength and status, he did not have access to such a large strategic pattern, nor did he understand that under the surface of aristocratic elegance, it was actually a more barbaric and brutal face: the supremacy of interests. Never underestimate the power of the aborigines, Hu Bin has been reminding himself. The common problem of numberers is that they always subconsciously look down on the aborigines.

In fact, Salander's reaction was quicker than Kane expected, and his troops were twice as many as planned, and even the target was locked on Swadia's living forces. The army of the Sultan of Hakim has been basically assembled, but it must not be rash, that will only scare away the big shark of Swadia. Quietly waiting for Svadia to be exhausted on the reef of Viruga, it was time for them to deliver the final blow.

On the 24th and 25th, the Swadia army, which had finally waited for reinforcements, was fully rested, and then launched a large-scale siege battle on the morning of the 26th. Marshal Craggs, who had a staggering 4,500 troops in his hands, was fully pressed by 2,000 troops as soon as he struck. After a three-hour siege, the Swadian army, which had successively added 500 reinforcements, took the city with great difficulty, and engaged in more brutal street battles with the remnants of Rhodok, who took the initiative to retreat.

Kane and many of the numberers did not participate in the siege, and almost all of the numberers in Svadia came here this time, plus the retinues and subordinates they brought, and the troops brought by the numbered forces definitely exceeded 1,000 people. Marshal Kragus used the coercive order to keep the force of the Numberer Legion in his hands, after all, the Numberer mercenaries of the Svadia Kingdom are powerful, and they are just used to deter the Salander army who came to disrupt the situation. In his opinion, the Salander army, which numbered about 2,000 people, would not rush up to find trouble, and it seemed that victory was in sight.

But Saland's army, as if not seeing the numerical superiority of the Swadian army, rushed forward with the incredulous expressions of all the Swadians.

"Are they looking for death, even if they start a war with us on the hills, there will be no chance of victory. What did the commander on the opposite side eat, and the army of two thousand people rushed over so recklessly? "Marshal Craggs' head is big, and to be honest, he really doesn't want to go to war with Salander. It's not that there is no confidence in victory, it's just that the siege troops are still fighting hard, and it is estimated that they will call for help at any time. Field Marshal Craggs, who had no choice, could only send all the numbered legions to the battlefield, and he kept an army of about 800 people as his back, ready to support the siege troops at any time.

Perhaps Marshal Craggs could be a little more decisive and put all his forces on to resist Salander's attack, and Salander's side would feel some pressure as well. But as a conservative leader, his ability to do things in a safe way is his strength, and it is also his most fatal point.

Just like the marshal of Salander, Hu Bin's cheap old man Muhai Yiboye, said, if you want to impress ambitious lords, you can only do it with greater ambition than others. It was with his unruly offensive momentum in battle that he convinced most of the lords to choose him as marshal, otherwise even if Muhai Boyya's father was a former marshal, the lords would not be convinced.

Perhaps Salander has been on the defensives for many years and needs an attacking marshal. Svadia is surrounded by enemies on three sides, and a defensive marshal is the most suitable. But at this moment, Marshal Kraggs's conservatism buried all the Svadia numberers.
