Polis was dressed in his armor and stared intently at the defense map of the city of Merdes. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Lord Duke, are you sounding the alarm?" Kuwan, the chief garrison officer of Meicheng, walked into the council chamber and asked the city lord.
"No, the two princes are now stationed outside the city, and the ringing of the alarm bell will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble. Boris picked up his helmet and sword, "Come with me." ”
One after the other, they came outside the house, where the garrisons of Merdes City had arrived. Seeing the appearance of the city lord, everyone stood upright, waiting for the order.
"I'm sure everyone is curious why I issued a Level 1 Security Order. Unfortunately, I don't know the specific threat, but according to reliable information, an evil force is attacking Meicheng, and the power is probably beyond our cognition and imagination. Boris looked at the guards with serious faces at the bottom of the steps, and continued: "But don't be afraid, the old dean of the archmage Lodge has already begun to take action, and there are still two princes' armies outside the city, I believe that under the eyes of the soldiers and civilians of Meicheng, who are united by me, all evil will be crushed, and in the name of the Duchy of Mandis, we will definitely be able to defend the city of Merdes!"
"In the name of the principality". The garrisons followed Boris, shouting in high spirits.
While Boris deployed the defense of Merdes City, Saarion and Feather Wing, who were shuttling through the woods, were running at great speed.
"They're right behind us, not far from us." The keen Windranger Wings, although the pursuers were spotted early in the morning, the enemy also seems to have people with extremely strong tracking skills, and now the distance between the two sides is gradually closing.
"Yes, I can already hear their hooves!" said Sarion as he ran, "Listen to the wings, the goal of the two of us is too big, I will go and distract them, and you will take the opportunity to find my companions." After all, this matter has little to do with you, and I will take care of the rest by myself, now, let's go!" said Saarion, who stopped, and turned back, waiting for the approaching pursuers.
The wings paused slightly, glanced at Saarion again, said nothing, and turned to walk away quickly.
Little by little, time moves forward. The city-wide alert in Merdes City has begun, and the residents have been alerted one after another, and they have begun to hurriedly pack the necessary bags. The cadets of the academy county were also assembled in batches under the leadership of the instructor team. The soldiers on duty are heading to the designated place one after another to assemble. Boris ordered Kuvan to go to the city walls to inspect the Imperial Front, and at the same time personally went to the city to supervise the evacuation. The alarm bell has not sounded, so it is more difficult for Meicheng, which has many residents and businesses, to evacuate. This is also a helpless move, Wise Boris He knows that once the alarm bell rings at this time, the situation outside the city will be tense, there will be an overreaction, and if it is not good, before the evil attack, the army of the two princes has already fought together. Now the only way to do this is to send messengers to inform the two princes of the impending danger so that they can prepare in advance.
Two teams of men were galloping outside the city of Merdes, messengers sent by Boris early in the morning. Once the news arrives, the three parties can form a triangular front that responds to each other, and it is believed that the army that gathers the three main forces of the Duchy of Mandis is bound to crush the evil army.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
In the darkness of the night, as many figures approached menacingly, Sarion stood calmly in place, thinking about how to deal with the enemy. His eyes widened suddenly, and the pursuer finally reached the visible field of vision, but he didn't expect that the first person who came into his eyes was actually his classmate, Cato.
"Salion, look where you're going this time. Cato said viciously, ignoring his classmates.
"Cato, we're classmates, and you don't care about it at all?"
"Haha, classmate, do you still expect us to have a lot of friendship? Don't forget that you have always been the tail of the crane of the Knight Academy, and I am an outstanding elite, how can I have too much contact with you, you really look down on yourself!" Cato's arrogance made Saarion feel extremely unhappy, and his anger was growing in his heart, but Saarion always warned himself not to be overly angry, that unknown dark power was still in his body, and he could no longer fill his heart with anger, and he must remain sane now.
"Salion, lay down your weapons and go back with us obediently, don't worry, you just need to make things clear, Dean Lodge and I will definitely intercede for you and keep you safe!" Dirome also rode to the front of the group, and said earnestly.
"Instructor, didn't you say that the entire Duchy had ordered me to hunt me down?" Salion hesitated, rescuing his wings, claiming that Sarion's companions, Bakers and Morgan, had been given an ultimatum to death, and that everyone in the Principality would receive a huge reward for carrying the head of any of the three of them. And now the instructor's tone doesn't seem to be as serious as he thought.
Back in the city of Merdes, the panic is growing as more and more people are alerted. First the night attack by the assassins, and now the whole city is on alert, and the residents of Meicheng, who have been stable and stable for decades, finally find it difficult to control the fear in their hearts and begin to become chaotic. People scrambled in the direction of the shelter. The whole road was in chaos, and the soldiers who maintained order were completely ineffective in the panicked flight of everyone. The sound of shouting, colliding, and crying of children was mixed together, and it seemed so harsh in the dark and quiet night.
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince, there is a noisy noise in the direction of Meicheng. The guard knelt down on one knee in front of the tent and prayed to the second prince.
When the second prince heard this, he turned around suddenly, and his first reaction was that the army of the third prince had entered Merdes City. "Damn. He shook the wine glass in his hand and yelled angrily: "Damn the third child, you actually started first." Quickly gather forces to attack enemy positions. It is not so fast for the huge army to enter the city, and I let most of them die under my iron cavalry before they enter the city.
Similarly, the screening on the Three Princes' side is the same. The attacking formations have already begun to be listed.
Boris screamed badly, he desperately waved his horsewhip and rushed towards the center of the noise, and the people must be calmed down as soon as possible, otherwise, the commotion will definitely cause misunderstanding between the two princes. As soon as the fighting begins outside the city, the evil forces will take advantage of the situation, and the principality will be hit like never before.
Kuwan looked in the direction of the noise in the city, and at this time, he stood on the city wall to arrange defenses, and his face was worried, and now he could only hope for the city lord. He looked back and saw that the soldiers who were also looking at the city were gradually showing tension, and it seemed that decades of stability had only exacerbated their fear of war. Kuvan knew that morale had to be boosted now, otherwise the mental stress would be enough to crush the nervous soldiers.
"Orders were sent to the garrison officers, telling them to pay more attention to the morale of the soldiers when arranging the garrison defense, and the soldiers who were not on duty received their weapons and equipment at the armory, first went to help maintain the order of the evacuation of the people, and then reported to their respective small pairs. All fast. Kuvan said loudly to the herald. "Yes, sir. "When the herald received the command, he galloped away,
Rushing Boris finally arrived at the center of the noise. He rode his horse to the high platform not far from the crowd, and the guards behind him also stood in line in front of the high platform. "Draw the sword!" Boris shouted, "Qiang Qiang" several sounds of sword sales, which immediately attracted the attention of the crowd, and the heartstrings of the people must be particularly sensitive to the metallic sound of the weapon at the moment of high tension.
"I swear by my sword and swear to defend Meicheng to the death!"
"I swear by my sword to defend Plum City to the death!" the guard shouted solemnly after Boris.
The shining sword raised above his head reflected the light of the torches, and in the light, the lord of the city of Merdes led the guards to swear a simple but gripping oath, and the majesty and determination were rendered to everyone, and suddenly the quiet order rippled like the wind blowing through a wheat field. The noise died down, and the army that maintained order gradually arrived and regained control of the scene.
A great king once said that the people's livelihood is the direction of everything. When the people of the city returned to order, the soldiers on the city walls also surged with their fighting spirit. The garrison of Meicheng really lived up to its name, and the soldiers arrived at the corresponding positions one after another according to the instructions, and the fine-tuning carried out by the squad also seemed to be so orderly. With the archers in front, the halberd soldiers in the center, and the shield soldiers in the back, the classic formation of the city defense battle was tightly organized. A corresponding number of defenders were placed on the walls of the city in the southeast, north, and west directions of the city, trying not to miss a dead point. The major catapults are also ready. The cavalry units assembled in front of the main gate to the east, ready to receive the armies of the two princes into the city at any time. The Legion of Wizards and the Priest Army, waiting in the city, will rush to support once the enemy's main attack direction is determined. Garrisons and High Realm cadets are on every arterial road in the city, and they are scattered in small formations that cooperate with each other in order to deal with the street battles after the enemy breaks through the walls, and the soldiers who maintain order in front of the shelters will form the last line of defense after all the civilians enter.
