"The orcs are rushing up from the western wall!"

"Reserves!"

"There are no reserves......"

“...... If you are not afraid of death, come with Lao Tzu!"

Soon, with the smoke rushing into the sky, the shouts of killing gradually subsided, and another fortress fell. Vertex updates the fastest

The current king of the Eagle Kingdom looked at another area of the magic map that had turned from blue to red, and his face was so gloomy that it almost looked like a thunderstorm.

But he finally held back, and just asked in a gloomy voice, "Reinforcements...... Haven't you arrived yet?"

"Report ...... Report to Your Majesty, the reinforcements from the Land of Thousand Springs are still on the way, the terrain is rugged, and the march is difficult, the reinforcements from the Gold Coin Federation have been stopped by the group of swamp natives, and have not yet been able to break through the barrier, as for the Duchy of Griffin......" the official in charge of intelligence hesitated, but still said honestly, "They have recently transferred another batch of troops, but they are only going to support the defense line of the Great Wall. ”

King Igor's body trembled slightly, and even his voice trembled a little: "Over there in the Duchy of Griffons...... How so?"

They said...... The Great Wall defense line is the most important thing. He also said that since the Eagle Kingdom has always been able to hold back the orc army in the past, it will definitely be able to ...... this time."

King Igor was silent for a long time, and finally he threw a heavy punch that knocked down the solid conference table.

Anyone can see that the Duchy of Griffons clearly intends to use the power of the orc army to defeat the Eagle Kingdom this time. It is believed that when the main force of the Eagle Kingdom is exhausted, they will immediately send troops to take Eagle Wing City and seize the throne of the Eagle as a savior.

However, it does not mean that there is a way to think of it. The Duchy of Griffons had indeed sent all the troops it could to help maintain the Great Wall's defenses, and they certainly weren't lying about it.

The Great Wall defense line is a top priority, and that's certainly true. The elite main forces of the human race are concentrated there, and if the defense line of the Great Wall is breached, this battle of the main plane will be directly lost.

But...... If those orcs had the ability to break through the Great Wall's defense, how could they run to attack the Eagle Kingdom!

King Igor didn't say anything, just sullen and angry. It was a long time before he said to the sad-faced ministers, "What do you think...... Where else can we go for reinforcements?"

"Your Majesty, if we could find reinforcements, we would have gone for them a long time ago. The Prime Minister of the Kingdom replied with a sigh.

The king sighed deeply.

This is the biggest problem in front of the Eagle Kingdom, even if they want to ask for reinforcements, there is no place to ask for reinforcements.

The countries adjacent to the Eagle Kingdom are strictly speaking only the Orc Empire and the Griffon Duchy. The Orc Empire is an enemy army, and the Duchy of Griffons is not much of an ally. At present, what is really making efforts is the country of a thousand springs and the gold coin federation, which have no friendship. One of them is forcibly crossing the mountains and mountains to come to the aid of the dangerous Broken Cloud Mountains, while the other is fighting with the natives of the swamp, just hoping to break through the barrier as soon as possible, pass through the northern edge of the swamp, and then cross the Graystone Mountains to come to the rescue.

As neighbors with whom they didn't have much friendship in the past, the Land of a Thousand Springs and the Gold Coin Federation have done a good job, and no one can blame them anymore.

If you want to blame it, you can only blame the group of traitors in the Duchy of Griffons for being too bastard!

"Those rebels! they want us to die, how can it be so easy!" King Igor roared angrily, "no matter what, we will hold out until reinforcements arrive!"

"Pass my order to mobilize all local militias and border defenders to form a follow-up force to support the northern front!"

The ministers immediately complied and drafted the edict.

At this moment, a close minister whispered: "Your Majesty, seeing that the battle line is not far from us, do you want to retreat?"

King Igor was stunned and looked at him viciously.

The close minister's face was very bitter, but he insisted: "Your Majesty, now that you have retreated, the impact on the morale of the army is not too great......

King Igor, of course, understood what he meant, and it was better to retreat now than to wait until the enemy was approaching the city, and it was better to flee in embarrassment when the city was broken.

But he just sneered, his smile was gloomy and compassionate.

"I'm not going back. After laughing, he said word by word, "The city is here, and I am here." The city falls, and I die. Either we win this battle, or this is where I will be buried!"

The ministers' faces changed dramatically, but before they could speak, the king continued: "Since the establishment of the Eagle Kingdom, most of the kings have died on the battlefield to defend against the invasion of the orcs. One more me, no less...... That would be a disgrace to the Igor family. ”

He sighed deeply, his gaze swept over the worried ministers, and said sincerely, "Everyone, I understand what you mean. But...... To be honest, we're afraid we really won't be able to win this battle. So at the very least, I'm going to die like a king where I should die, you know?"

"And ......," he hesitated for a moment, but still said his thoughts, "Perhaps, if I die here, 'that one' will look at the face of the dead and save the Eagle Kingdom......"

The ministers all knew who the "one" he was talking about, and if that person made a move, they believed that no matter how strong the orc army was, they might not be able to take advantage of it. But that person's identity is different, and it is really inconvenient to make a move.

So...... As the king said, even if it was to fight for a possibility for him to make a move, it was worth fighting for his life.

The ministers were silent for a long time, and finally smiled bitterly.

"It's good that I have a son, so I don't have to worry about being dead. ”

"I only have a daughter, and I lost it this time!"

"My son went to school in Void City some time ago, and it's really gratifying that he didn't come back this time. ”

"Congratulations!"

Since His Majesty the King is ready to die on the battlefield, they can only follow in the footsteps of the king and take this southernmost and strongest fortress at the southern end of the northern fortress group as their burial place.

King Igor couldn't help but smile when he looked at the bitter but resolute smiles of his courtiers.

"Over the years, our monarchs and ministers have gotten along well. Let's walk together on the last part of the road. ”

On the same day, the king of the Eagle Kingdom solemnly announced that he would personally garrison the fortress, either hold out until the orc army was repulsed, or die on the battlefield, and there was no third choice!

When the news came, the heads of state were both surprised and took it for granted. Only the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Griffons smiled triumphantly, rejoicing that his plan had worked.

However, he rejoiced a little too soon.

Just when the orc army broke through another fortress, and there were still four fortresses away from the fortress where King Igor of the Eagle Kingdom was located, countless caves suddenly cracked in the underground of the eastern plains of the Principality of Griffons, and the army of gnomes and underground creatures from nowhere rushed out to take the capital of the principality located in the plains.
