Chapter 165: The Calm Before the Storm

Merial lay quietly in her tent, the sound of Ron's neat and even breathing in her ears.

The sun was shining in the city of Boer, but Meria had always felt a sense of unease in her heart, like a heavy stone weighing on her heart, and after the end of her daily meetings, Merial lay back in the bedding of her tent.

Ever since she escaped from Wissheer using the Transfiguration Technique, her nerves had become very sensitive, and she instinctively had this sense of impending crisis if something was about to happen.

The secret that she is a daughter is only known to Sylph of the elves in the entire Boer City. As for the secret, she wants to keep it forever.

In a brazier in a tent. The flames of the charcoal were about to be extinguished, and the black-red charcoal fire made a dull noise from time to time, and Meria stared blankly at the roof of the tent, her eyes not even blinking.

Everything in Boer City has entered the norm, and Meria believes that as long as he gives himself enough time, Borcheng will also become a territory with strong strength like Luo Yaling, after all, in terms of area alone, Boer City does not need to be much smaller than Luo Ya Ling, counting the surrounding mountains.

"The most important thing in the territory is the talent. Merial turned over slightly, although the combat effectiveness of the army under her command can only be said to be average, but these officers are real elites, not counting herself and Ron, Ginny and Planck are officers with considerable combat experience, and Ginny's own strength is also quite good. Will is also a powerful archer and scout, plus Kiru, who has just taken refuge in them, whether it is riding or archery, Meria is confident that even in the high-skilled Westhale Empire, Kiru is definitely the kind of elite knight commander-level existence.

"It's rude!"

Suddenly, Ginny's voice sounded outside the tent, and before Merial could react, Ginny had already lifted the curtain and rushed in.

"What's wrong, Ginny?" Meria's heart pounded at the latter's gloomy face.

"The scout force we sent is back. Ginny's gaze quickly swept over the sleeping Ron, "But Captain Godin hasn't returned. According to their reports, there is a large force that is marching quickly towards us!"

"Huge number of troops?Is it the enemy on the front line of Yod?" Meria rolled over from her bed, "Hurry up and get the soldiers together, let's talk about it while we go!"

The quiet and harmonious atmosphere of the city was broken by the sound of high-pitched trumpets, and the soldiers who were resting in the barracks, patrolling the streets, or practicing in the school grounds gathered in the direction of the city gates. This trumpet sound, which is common in the Fjords of Death, has not been sounded in the city of Boer for a long time.

Meria's face was very ugly, Godin was quite likely to be killed on the battlefield, and it seemed that this force was not just the army of the Duchy of Beru in Yod.

"Are these Berus crazy? they're traveling long distances just to deal with us?"

On the battlements of Boer City, these officers of Boer City have gathered here, Niro, who has always kept a smiling face on weekdays, is now also very ugly, he has been with Godin for the longest time, and his heart is undoubtedly the saddest one to see the old man die on the battlefield.

"According to the reports of these scouts, there are some external factors in this battle. Kiru said in a deep voice: "I don't know where the Beru people have gotten reinforcements, but it is an indisputable fact that the enemy on the front line of Yod Town has been greatly strengthened. ”

"Geographically, there is no need to attack Boer City, and it is not good for the other side to drive straight forward like this, I don't know what the commander of the other side thinks, such a rash attack is more like a matter of care. Kiru looked at Meria: "Could it be that the other party has known the location of the city lord through some channel?"

"Is it because we once made them deflated?" Meria took a deep breath and shook her head slightly: "The enemy has already come, and it is useless to investigate their offensive intentions now, now let all the troops in the city gather under the city tower, and also, get all our special weapons." ”

Kiru nodded, and rode away directly, the secret weapon in Meria's mouth is naturally the explosive bag that has begun to be mass-produced in Bol City, these workers recruited before, under the temptation of high salaries, the work efficiency is naturally not to be said, and now the number of explosive bags hoarded in Bol City is definitely far more than the reserves of Yoder Town at that time, and these explosive packs are an important trump card for them to stick to.

"Will, you quickly bring some soldiers to pacify the people, but don't hide the facts, this battle must be fought, and if necessary, the inhabitants of the city will also be involved in the war. ”

"Nile, you arrange some soldiers to specialize in logistics support and supply, and I must let every soldier on the battlement front line immediately replenish the new crossbow machine after shooting the last crossbow arrow in the air!"

"Don't worry, my lord, I'll do it!" Nile thumped his chest.

"Others, arrange for the soldiers to gather, this is a tough battle, I think, once the battle starts here, the lords of other territories should not sit idly by. Meria looked at Will: "Will, I won't bother you this time." ”

Will bowed slightly, at this juncture of the survival of the country and the nation, the lords of other territories will not sit idly by, once the Beru people have a firm foothold here, then it is not so simple to organize an offensive to counterattack the enemy.

Meria slowly ascended to the top of the city, the cool breeze on his cheeks, and the silence on the great plain in the distance, Meria knew very well that this was only the calm before the storm, and soon beneath this border town would be a bloody Shura field.

Many of the soldiers in Boer City have little combat experience, and they are undoubtedly the inferior side in this battle, except for the towers that can be defended and the explosives bags that are secretly made, they do not have any capital to fight the enemy head-on.

"Ron, you should wake up quickly, our city of Boer has reached the time of life and death. ”

Meria muttered.

In the barracks in the center of the square, all the soldiers had poured out, and in the commander's tent in the center, Ron, who had been asleep, trembled his fingers slightly......
