Section 20 Great Changes

readx;

Balins could clearly feel the change in the Kaman army under the walls, no army had attacked for two days in a row, although there were still troops watching his side from afar, to prevent his army from taking the opportunity to re-dig the moat, but this also gave the already exhausted soldiers an extremely rare respite. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infoWhatever the reason, this gives my side a coveted chance to recuperate.

The attack power of the Kamans is too strong, although they have been mentally prepared, and even think that they have overestimated it, but when the Kamans really attacked, Balins found that the other party deserved to be the first military power in Libea, and it was not exaggerated at all, whether it was from the complex siege equipment or the unpredictable attack methods, or the quality of the soldiers in the participating army, all of them made Balins amazed.

Ten days of continuous assault, with advanced siege weapons in combination with each other, it only took three days to completely fill in the moat that was considered a moat, although the Kamans also paid a considerable price, but it was also the beginning of the nightmare of the Gerok soldiers. The ensuing successive waves of attacks made the fortifications of Merrington City, which they usually thought they were impregnable, suddenly seem thin, and the defensive line that usually seemed airtight suddenly became vulnerable under the sharp offensive of the Carmans.

More than 50,000 elite soldiers of the coalition army, including more than 30,000 people, the Wang Family Janissary Army, which had the strongest combat effectiveness in the entire Jieluo, lost more than 10,000 people at once in the tragic offensive and defensive battles in the following week, and the vast majority of them were either killed or lost their combat effectiveness. Fortunately, the people in the city of Merrington also knew the powerful surname of this war, and in less than a day after the emergency conscription order was issued, they collected 30,000 strong men with the surname, and immediately distributed weapons, as reserve soldiers ready to put into the battlefield at a critical moment, but how strong the combat effectiveness of this unit is, even Balins himself does not know.

It was a difficult week, like a normal year, and Balins lasted almost every day until late at night, and in addition to arranging military affairs, he also personally led the patrol to prevent the Kamans from attacking late at night. At one time, Balins was also a little discouraged, thinking of the 200,000 enemy troops under the city, he was incompetent and could not hold out to the end, and the huge gap between the strength of the two armies made him himself secretly depressed, in this case, Merrington City will not be in January, and the end must be the destruction of the city, rather than this, it is better to compromise earlier, and maybe win some favorable conditions, these thoughts that made him feel ashamed passed through his mind more than once, although it was only skimmed, and he was deeply ashamed, but this kind of hopeless war, even his own heart is innumerable, how can the soldiers be full of confidence to meet it?

Standing silently at the head of the city like a stone statue looking down into the distance, the enemy's camp still did not move, it seems that there will probably be no attack today, Balins breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Ren is experienced in a hundred battles, but such a cruel and invisible war has also made him physically and mentally exhausted, and he can drag on day by day, he doesn't even want to think about what caused Kamanren to suspend the offensive, he just wants to go back to the mansion and sleep alone with him.

But the reason and responsibility of being the commander of the city defense told him that this was a question that had to be carefully explored, what was it that would bring a halt to the enemy, who had already had absolute superiority? This question has actually been hovering in Balins's mind for a long time, and he has also discussed it with Qin Feng, the chief general of the allied forces, but after ruling out the possibility of reinforcements from the imperial army and the illusory reason for the sudden change in Kaman's country, there is only one possibility in front of him, that is, Princess Anne and Red's trip to the northwest has achieved its goal, and Li Wufeng accepted the quid pro quo and sent troops, but this is only a possibility, and now it cannot be verified, what if it is a false stand put up by the Kamans, but they are secretly preparing for a more fierce attack?

With a long exhale, Balins shook his head painfully, alas, it was too much of a headache, but what he needed more at the moment was to strengthen his defense, as for any changes that happened outside, he could not do anything but wait and see.

"Dominic, I'll leave it to you. The silver-haired coach in military uniform patted the Marquis of Dominici with a solemn face at the moment he got on the horse, "At most, we can meet again in half a month." ”

"Don't worry, Dominic will do everything in his power to complete the task given to me. A burst of red tide flashed across the face of the Marquis of Dominic, and he gave a military salute vigorously: "As long as I, Dominic, am here for a day, I will not let Li Wufeng's army cross this front." ”

Smiling slightly, a confident look flashed across Miley's face, " You don't have to worry too much, Balins, the defender of Merrington City, is an extremely cautious and suspicious person, the strong attack some time ago is estimated to have broken the courage of the Gerok people, and now we suddenly stopped attacking, and Merrington City is surrounded by us, and there is no way to get any contact with the outside world, I think even if Ballins detects our abnormality, under the influence of the lack of accurate information and the great losses of his subordinates, I conclude that he will definitely not dare to take this risk to go out of the city!"

Listening to the coach's positive analysis, Dominic's heart lit up, to be honest, although he thanked the coach for giving him such a difficult task, the situation in front of him was that Li Wufeng's five divisions and more than 110,000 people had pressed over, and he still had the nail of Merrington City behind him.

"Then Dashuai, do you mean that I only need to deal with Li Wufeng from the west?" asked thoughtfully, and the expectant light in Dominic's eyes flashed again.

"Well, you just need to firmly hold off Li Wufeng's main force, don't rush to a decisive battle with him, and strengthen the outer encirclement of Merrington City to prevent outside news from flowing into Merrington City, once I solve the Northwest Army on the southern front, I will return to the division immediately. Although Miley looked confident in front of his subordinates, he still had a trace of worry in his heart, if Ballins in Merrington City saw through this, it would bring disaster to the entire army, but according to his understanding of Balins's surname, Ballins was 90% sure that he would not dare to do this, and as for the remaining 10%, it would only be a gamble.

"Don't worry, my lord, hehe, if I only deal with the pressure on Li Wufeng's side, an army of 80,000, I, Dominic, will try my best to hold him back, if I can't even do this, I'm afraid I should really disappear from the battlefield. Dominic showed a proud smile on the corner of his mouth, with the boss's assurance, he was much more down-to-earth in his heart, although Li Wufeng was resourceful, but at the moment the two armies were facing each other, what he fought for was strength, he had absolute confidence in the strength of his own corps, as long as he did not change to meet all changes, there should be no problem in maintaining it for half a month.

Miley chose Dominic to stay behind to preside over the overall defense situation, but also took a fancy to Dominich's rich experience, calm and old to this point, with his experience and 80,000 elite troops, should be able to deal with Li Wufeng for a while, Miley is also optimistic about the combat effectiveness of the Northwest Army, after all, the Northwest Army has not been built for a long time, although it has experienced a war with the Luope people, but the Northwest Army at that time has not been formed at all, and then the Northwest military strength is expanding rapidly, but has not experienced any real war, such an army, Miley is very suspicious of their true combat effectiveness, maybe it is very good when training, but it is not necessarily when it is brought to the battlefield to compete。

"Well, then I'm relieved. Miley flew on his horse, glanced deeply at the large army that was quietly advancing southeast by the night, and turned around and told again: "Remember, don't attack lightly, but don't show too much weakness, you must not let the Gerlocks in Merrington know the true situation here, let them be suspicious, and when they come to their senses, I should also return triumphantly." ”

"Don't worry, your subordinates remember. In the face of this meritorious commander, Dominic did not dare to slack off.

On the night of May 16, 696 in the mainland Gregorian calendar, the main force of the Carman army, which was trapped outside the city of Merrington, under the leadership of the commander Miley, quietly bypassed the city of Merrington, and went south under the starry night, directly attacking the army of the southern front of the Northwest Army 160 miles away. On May 20, Maili led an army of 120,000 to firmly bite the three divisions of the Northwest Army on the southern front and besiege the border area between Gerok and Lulong, and a difficult battle was about to break out.

At the same time, the army of the Northwest Western Front, which had advanced to less than sixty miles from the city of Merrington, also encountered a blockade from the Kaman army, and Wu Feng, who did not want to be entangled with the main army of Kaman, immediately noticed the abnormality of the situation, although the enemy was extremely tenacious, but he was not willing to confront his own side head-on, which made Wu Feng very strange, this ability was a means that he was ready to use, and he would take it as soon as he touched it, but he did not disengage and drag the other party to death, why did he suddenly use the same means against Ang? Could it be that the situation in their country has changed dramatically, and the Bains have suddenly been tamed?

Wu Feng pondered the changes in this for a long time, until a secret letter from the snow pigeon solved the mystery in his heart.

"Miley, Miley, worthy of the twin pillars of the Kaman army. Gently throwing the secret document on the desk, Wu Feng was full of emotion, although Miley's move was extremely vicious and ruthless, and he suddenly pushed himself into a rather passive position, Wu Feng still admired the other party's quick change and action, just grasping the slightest lack of tacit understanding between his two lines in cooperation, and he made such a big move.

"My lord, what should we do now?" Sha Lang and Kang Jianguo, who first got the news, hurriedly rushed to the handsome tent to understand the situation.

"Hehe, the soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover the earth, Miley's appetite is too big, is it, really pinch our Northwest Army as a soft persimmon?" A sneer flashed at the corner of Wu Feng's mouth, "Wait a minute, wait for Cui Wenxiu, Song Tianxiong and Zeppelin to come, and everyone will discuss it carefully." ”
