Chapter 19: The North Will Remember Us

The conference hall became silent at this moment, and Angsai's gaze swept over everyone sitting one by one, and after a while, he spoke again, "The deployment plan of the troops continues to be discussed, and it will be handed over to me before sunset tonight, is there anything else?"

Gaylord couldn't help but say, "White ...... What about the Crow City?"

"Lord Warren fought valiantly, I will tell the Church what happened in Raven City, and beg His Majesty to posthumously make him a viscount, a knighthood...... It was inherited by his son. Ang Sai said lightly.

Someone whispered, "His two sons are also in Crow City." ”

"Then let his nephew inherit, or any other person who is related by blood, cousin, uncle, illegitimate child...... I don't care, anyway, find people related to him and let them come and receive the reward. Ang Sai said coldly.

There was a commotion in the conference room, and everyone thought that Ang Sai took out the emergency report of White Crow City in order for everyone to discuss the rescue method together, but they didn't expect Ang Sai to be so ruthless, and now it seems that he has not considered the matter of breaking the siege of White Crow City at all.

The White Crow City was just an outcast from the very beginning of Angsai's plan.

The northern territory is vast, in the case of the disparity in strength between the enemy and us, if one city and one pool are held, then the end will definitely be broken one by one, on this point Ang Sai and Rob are in the same opinion, it is necessary to concentrate the existing chips in one hand, and after the meeting with Lolo Rob, Ang Sai began to mobilize the army.

Even Dutt City, which was thousands of miles away, had received an order, but Ang Sai, the defender of White Crow City, seventy miles away, did not move, because he needed someone to buy him time.

It was not for nothing that Angsai chose Storm's Breath as the location of the decisive battle, two and a half days was too hasty for the mobilization of the army, although the cities sent advance troops to rush overnight, but the price of doing so was that people were sleepy and tired, don't look at the generals in the conference hall now arguing happily, but everyone's eyes were bloodshot.

Fortunately, the nearby cities, those troops who were far away, almost two days and two nights did not close their eyes, like Luo Qi, he had to leave a squad behind to collect the stragglers, the rest of these people will arrive one after another in these two days, these people and horses need further rest, if they are put into battle now, they can only exert about sixty percent of their combat effectiveness.

Angsai needs time, so he has no choice but to abandon Raven City and rally at Storm's End.

In fact, many people understand the truth, but everyone present can't be as ruthless as Angsai, because the retreat order was issued early, and some civilians in White Crow City have arrived at Storm's Rest Castle one after another, but there are still sixty or seventy thousand people left in the city, and Angsai is equivalent to sacrificing these people, exchanging their lives for time.

"I can lead people to raid Raven City, and if I change horses, I will definitely be able to rescue Warren from the city. Gaylord fell to his knees and pleaded, he didn't care if the civilians lived or died, but he had a good relationship with Warren, who had taught him swordsmanship and helped him after his father's death.

However, Angsai's words shattered his last illusion, "Anyone can go to Crow City, only Warren can't go, Warren is the backbone of Crow City, he can drag those monsters for every extra minute he lives, so that we can gather more reinforcements, and the soldiers can get more rest, I believe he will understand this truth." ”

............

Crow City, the setting sun sinks to the horizon.

Less than a magic spell has passed since the last tragic offensive and defensive battle, dozens of monsters rushed up the city wall at the most critical time, Warren arrived in time with people, killed fourteen monsters, and the remaining monsters were also forced to jump off the wall, and everyone worked together to barely withstand another crisis.

After a day of bloody fighting, the walls at this moment are full of severed limbs and blood, the original commander died in the morning, was stabbed through the heart by an Oronta Demon Eagle sheep that fell from the sky with the horns on the top of his head, and now the commander is a squad leader named Middleton, who pulled out a sharp tooth pierced into the shoulder, and said to Warren, "The White Crow City can't hold it, while there are still more than a hundred brothers left, the city lord is ready to break through, we can kill a bloody path for you." ”

The fat sheriff Hollins leaned against the side of the city wall, one of his legs was bitten off by a sheep's head crocodile, and he bandaged it simply, although he stopped bleeding, but he had lost his combat effectiveness, and said in despair at this moment, "It's all this time, why haven't the reinforcements from Storm's Rest Castle arrived yet?"

Another petty official beside him who was in charge of population statistics laughed miserably, "Lord Hollins still doesn't understand, there will be no reinforcements." ”

"Huh?" Hollins was a little dazed.

"If Lord Angsai really wanted to defend the White Crow City, he wouldn't have let us evacuate the civilians some time ago. The little officer was rarely sober, and he looked at Warren on the side, who stood at the head of the city, looking at his feet, and the monsters seemed to be tireless, and soon they were ready to move again.

Warren turned to Hollins and said, "Can you still go?"

The latter nodded, and stood up with the help of one of the guards.

Warren said, " Let's find a place to hide first, as soon as the sun goes down, it is estimated that the group of monsters will launch the next round of attacks, and we can't withstand this little manpower, so I have to remember what I said below, after the city is broken, you have two ways to choose, one is to try to escape from the city while the chaos is broken, the road to the direction of Storm's Rest is estimated to have been blocked, you can try your luck to go to Morton, I personally recommend you to choose this road, or if you want, you can also go to the frog tavern in the north of the city, I will lead you to a street fight, if I die, Middleton will take over, if Middleton also dies, you will choose another person, until the last person is also killed, and our mission is completed。 ”

"Why?" Hollins felt a little puzzled, "Lord Angsai is doing this to us, Lord Warren, do you still have to serve the Breton family?"

Warren waved his hand, " It has nothing to do with the Bretton family, I did this for the north, I can probably guess what Lord Angsai is thinking, you have seen the strength of these monsters today, and those really powerful guys in the back have not yet made a move, even if you add the defenders of Storm's Breath, it will not help, the crow city is over, what we have to do is to drag those monsters outside the city as much as possible, and buy enough time for Lord Angsai, otherwise not only the crow city, but the entire northern border will fall, and millions of people will die. ”

After the death-like silence, it was Middleton who was the first to say, "Anyway, choosing the first path is also ten deaths, in this case, it is better to make this life worthwhile." ”

Although Hollins's face was pale, he shook his head and said, "I don't want to hide, it's just that I lose my legs, I still have hands, and I can continue to fight, I don't want to be found by future generations starving to death in the cellar, that's too embarrassing, if I want to die, I'd rather die in battle." ”

Warren nodded, "Very well, I'll see you at the Frog Tavern then." After a pause, he looked up again and added, "Ladies and gentlemen, the North will remember us. ”
