The human heart is a very complex thing, no one dares to pat their chest and say that they can absolutely guess the vagaries of the human heart, even Pars, who has obtained the "eye of the heart", can't guess the human heart, she can only tell whether a sentence is true or not.

The human heart is like a pool of dozens of pigments slowly flowing in, plus a pool of living water, no one knows what kind of color they will see in the next moment.

The desperate resistance of the city of Millin shocked the rebels, completely frustrating the rebels' desire to quickly storm the city. Faced with the citizens of Milin City, who were not afraid of life and death, the morale of the rebels began to gradually decline. After all, soldiers are also human beings, and they also have joys, sorrows, and loves, hatreds, and sorrows. When they found that they could no longer tear these little white rabbits apart like a lion, and the little white rabbits had become dangerous beasts, they began to think about protecting themselves. It cannot be said that this idea is wrong, and fanaticism can never be permanent, but only temporary.

Blood splattered, life withered, like a basin of cold water poured down on the head and face, extinguishing the fanaticism, recognizing the reality, and making each other sober.

The trumpet, symbolizing the end of the army, sounded, and the siege troops retreated like a tidal tide in the ebb tide. The first wave of the offensive ended with a crushing defeat, with the phalanx of 12,000 men attacking in three directions almost halved and suffering heavy losses. On the opposite side of the city wall, there were earth-shattering cheers.

Kazari spat on the ground with a lot of deceit, and crushed it with his foot, the hatred in his eyes was like substance, as if it could overflow anytime and anywhere, "Let people prepare for the second wave of offensives, this time focusing on one point." ”

The others looked at each other and shook their heads. Just after this first wave of the offensive was over, the heads of the mercenary groups they hired came over, believing that the intensity of the battle and the battle loss rate had greatly affected their own strength. If you want them to continue to work hard, you have to pay more money and make your weapons and equipment fully available to them. To put it bluntly, I just found an excuse and didn't want to do it. Once they are rejected, they will pat their butts and leave, not unreasonable, but you can't cooperate, and this argument is tenable wherever it goes.

War mercenary organizations will never be able to fight against the wind, so the Orlando Empire does not have the slightest worry about these registered mercenary groups with thousands or even tens of thousands. They were valiant when the wind was down, and dared to fight the enemy alone. But in the face of headwinds, as in now, they are actually starting to think about retreating. Of course, this can't be blamed on these mercenaries, they are for money, and when the benefits brought by money cannot shake their positioning of their own value, they will inevitably choose to leave.

Life, after all, is priceless.

"It's a bad situation right now. Sarcomo whispered to the other three, "The Joberg I know is not so smart, he certainly can't instigate civilians to defend the city for him, and I suspect that our next plan has been leaked, so these civilians are so determined, not afraid of death and injury, standing on the wall to block our attack." Sarcomo sighed as he spoke, looking at the city wall not far from the opposite side and smiling bitterly, "There are too many of them, I really didn't expect such a day, I knew that I would attack them directly some time ago." ”

Sico didn't like to smoke in the first place, but at this time he was also holding another pipe, and the chopped Dragon Island bricks filled the entire pipe's trough, and his breathing came and went. He also shook his head, holding the pipe in one hand so that it would not fall to the ground because of his words, "This has nothing to do with you, we are all innocent, no one would have thought that Wren, who should have come to the aid of Millin City, would actually run away to Candela." This man is so cunning that he doesn't play according to the routine at all. What is even more surprising is the situation inside the capital, and the will of these people to stand in the way of death is terrible. ”

Speaking of this, Sico couldn't help but glance at Kazari, who was scolding on the side, "If it weren't for that idiot who came to slaughter the city, this battle might not have turned out like this." ”

Uvel then asked: "Then do you think if we give up the slaughter of the city, will the other side choose to compromise? I believe that these untouchables will not necessarily die for the Orlando family, this is not the hinterland of the empire, they will not enjoy the Orlando family's policy of benefiting the people, and they will not be loyal." ”

Sarcomo shook his head, "Things can't be considered so simply, even if we say that everything is a misunderstanding now, will the civilians on the other side believe it? They have been incited, and they will not leave the wall until this war is over." He said pointedly: "They are desperate to survive. ”

The three of them looked sad, the population of the capital was enough to make people desperate, and as long as a tenth of the people stood up and walked up to the wall, then the city could not be captured.

"Actually, all this has nothing to do with us, if we can't take the capital today, I will leave here early tomorrow morning with my people. After being silent for a long time, Sico said this sentence with a cold face. "I've lost too much time to stay any longer, so I'm sorry for everyone. ”

As if hearing Sico's words, Khazari glanced sideways at him with an extremely ugly face, but said nothing. All of this was agreed yesterday, and whether or not Mirin City can be captured today, in the end, Sico and Uvir will withdraw their troops and return to help. Maybe they do it as useless and useless, but often there is only a silver lining, and people are willing to put in the best effort.

Khazari walked over with a gloomy face, took a deep breath, and looked at Sarcomo, "Promise those mercenaries that I will pay for this money." The equipment is also at their disposal, and I will pay for all the losses. He patted his stiff face, letting his muscles relax almost like a piece of iron, "I must apologize to you for my previous irrationality, I was too impulsive, I'm sorry everyone!", he raised his voice, "However, we must take Mirin City, Sico, and Uvel, I don't know what kind of situation your fiefdom is facing at this time, but I believe it won't be too good." If we capture Milin City, we still have a chance to turn the tables, but if you go back and find that the fief that your family has been running for hundreds of years has been lost, and the clansmen have suffered heavy casualties, and Millin City has not been captured, will we still have a way out?"

"At the pace of the First Guard's march, it may not be long before they enter the province of Bell, and by that time we will have no city to rely on, no place to resupply, and we will die without a place to bury. Are you willing to be escorted to the imperial capital to stand trial, and then spend your life in some dungeon that never sees the light of day, or even be hanged on the execution rack?", he shook his fist fiercely and gritted his teeth, "No, we must not leave here so worthless, we must do something!"

Sico and Uvel glanced at each other, they didn't expect that at this time, Kazari would be the first to calm down. What he said is also very reasonable, they don't know what the situation of the fief is, if it is really occupied by Rennes, they will become rootless duckweed and become rogues. Under the joint encirclement and suppression of Wren and the First Guard, they can't even get out of Bell Province!

Everyone was hesitating, hesitating, weighing the gains and losses, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

The second wave of the offensive did not stop because of the hesitation of a few people, and the mercenaries laughed and changed into new heavy armor, perhaps they were the only ones on the battlefield who could laugh. Most of these heavy armors are standard, in other words, they are controlled armor, and they are not allowed to be sold and manufactured privately. The threat of heavy soldiers in the field is too great, even if it is not difficult to shake the cavalry group head-on, it is more difficult for mercenaries to get a set of heavy armor than to eat, and now these valuable equipment are left to their choice, and they can't close their smiling mouths.

The siege machine was pushed to the wall again, and the second wave of attack was faster than the first wave of attack, and dozens of steel drills were inserted into the city wall, providing convenience for the soldiers climbing the city, and also reducing the chance of falling objects hitting them. The knights completely withdrew from the battle, and the dense crowd on the wall was the biggest killer of the knights, and the charge that could not form a scale could not disperse this group of people at all, and rushing up one by one alone could only be a suicidal act.

But the caravans did not leave the battlefield, but all became a runway for the heavily armed soldiers to rush to the city.

After a short rest of less than an hour, the sound of the horn once again fluttered over the capital of Bell Province, Milin City.

At the same time, several rebel leaders in the camp finally made a decision. After careful consideration, they agreed that it was more rational and more in their interests to continue to attack Milin City than to return to the fiefdom that had already been broken. The originally one-sided war situation collapsed just because of Wren's casual manipulation, and they suddenly found that they had been led away by Wren's nose.

If the coalition forces split up and go back to their respective homes, it will give Wren an opportunity to take advantage of. Now their army is still superior in numbers, as long as they can ensure that the combined forces are not divided, at least in the field, Wren still does not dare to clash with them head-on. They have no way to retreat, and in the situation of death, they will inevitably produce great combat effectiveness, although the word mourning soldiers must win does not appear in this world, but the truth exists.

Just like the civilians on the opposite wall, with the determination to die, they exert unimaginable combat effectiveness.

If the coalition forces are also cornered, they may not be worse than these civilians, and the power they exert is probably even more unimaginable. (To be continued.) )
