Chapter 188: Bringing Grain into the City
When night falls, the earth seems to want to fall asleep and make the world quiet, but it is destined to be only temporary.
Surin took the lead and walked in the front.
After coming to the hillside, he looked at the brightly lit enemy camp below, with no expression on his face, only indifference in his eyes.
At this time, he noticed a flickering torch on the opposite hillside, and quickly took out his binoculars to look, and saw that it was the person who was transporting the grain.
Seeing this, Surin knew that Felicia and the others were already on the other side, and immediately ordered an attack.
Immediately a pair of archers came up and fired at the barracks below, and then the infantry immediately began to charge.
Surin, on the other hand, went around with a group of soldiers, ready to meet Felicia.
As he walked towards the opposite side, Surin noticed the change in the situation of the battle, and at this time, the large forces of the two sides were already fighting together.
Before the attack, he also investigated the defenders here clearly, and the nearest one was more than a hundred miles away from here, and the battle was already over by the time the support came.
Now the battle is basically a one-sided situation, after all, their own side has the advantage of numbers, and victory is only a matter of time.
Listening to the sound of swords colliding all around, the wails of soldiers falling to the ground, tonight will be destined to be bloody.
Soon after, Surin saw Felicia, only to see her trotting all the way and then pounce.
"I haven't seen you a lot in a few months!" After hugging her, Su Lin also made a joke.
"you, I'm not heavy at all, it's just that my armor is heavy. Felicia quickly explained, what woman would hear others say that she was fat!
Then the two kissed together, and there was no tendency to separate for a few minutes, and when the two of them separated, they both felt that their mouths were numb.
Surin then inspected the caravan behind him like a long line, and the carriages were covered with green cloths, making it difficult to spot.
Felicia stroked her hair and said, "This time we were able to get here smoothly, thanks to Ao Dai, if it weren't for our help, we wouldn't have been able to walk over from the surveillance of the local flying team so easily." โ
"Just arrive safely, you can leave here with food first, and I'll stay to take care of the aftermath. โ
"Then be careful yourself. โ
After Felicia left, Surin was also observing the movement of the battlefield.
It wasn't until dawn that the battle was completely over, and most of the enemy forces were annihilated, while a few ran out.
Seeing that everywhere he saw were corpses, Su Lin couldn't help but sigh, what war can't avoid is death, and only death can win victory.
At this time, Gordon also led the soldiers to clean up the battlefield, transport back weapons, armor, food, horses, etc., and count casualties at the same time.
Then Gru came over and reported: "Your Majesty, we have lost 15,000 soldiers in this battle, annihilated 40,000, and 20,000 escaped. โ
"Very well, Gru now I will give you a mission, lead 60,000 cavalry on the periphery, carry out a sneak attack on the enemy army, and go to the forest to find Ao Dai when you need supplies. Su Lin commanded earnestly.
"But Your Majesty, wouldn't the city's defenses be weaker if we left? Gru was puzzled.
Seeing this, Surin explained in a deep voice: "Otherwise, Banhard will be surrounded and officially transferred to defensive warfare, and the cavalry will be useless in the city, it is better to let you play freely outside, I believe you will definitely make them miserable." โ
Hearing this, Gru didn't say anything more, and after saluting, he left here with 60,000 cavalry, and soon disappeared into the reckless grassland.
At this moment, Kaili was rushing towards Qiufeng Town with his troops, wanting to support the troops there, and then send people to find those grain transportation teams.
Just then, a signal soldier was galloping over on horseback and handed the letter to Carey.
After reading it, Khairy left and tore the letter to shreds, and his teeth rattled with rage, and it said that another garrison had been attacked, and that the convoy had passed through there and brought the grain into Banhad.
Seeing that he could already guess what was going on, Chloe looked at Carey and said, "Do you know why we lost and been led by others all the time?"
Carey nodded, smiled with relief and said, "It's because we are too passive, we never take the initiative, and we will only be led by others." โ
"Don't worry, we'll let them taste what we're doing later. โ
At this time, Mekji was still leading a large army in pursuit of the grain convoy, and now they had come to the vicinity of Jebeldan, but they still found no trace of the grain convoy.
Just as a letter eagle descended from the sky, and immediately a guard took the letter down and handed it to Mekji.
When Mekji saw the letter saying that they had been fooled, that the real convoy had been brought in from the southwest into Banhard, he was now chasing a decoy.
After getting the news, Mekji couldn't believe it for a while, if this was true, then he was just wandering on the grassland for a while.
"Your Excellency, the enemy's food convoy has been spotted ahead. โ
At this time, a sentence woke up Mekji, who was still in a daze, and he immediately chased after him.
At this time, O'Harden, who was patrolling the sky, saw the dust rising on the ground, and knew that their traces had been discovered, so he hurriedly rode the dragon and turned around and reported to the grain caravan.
After Karl received the news, he immediately stretched out his hand to stop the grain transportation team, looked at everyone and said: "Now our mission has been completed, the enemy army has also caught up, and there is Jebeldan not far ahead, so everyone unloaded the car, rode on horses, and ran towards Jebeldan." โ
As soon as the words fell, everyone began to act, some of them pulled out of the carriage of horses, and then several people began to gallop on horseback.
When Mekji and the others caught up, they saw only a group of fleeing people, next to them in front of a bunch of carriages.
One of the soldiers immediately went up and lifted the cloth on it, and found that the wagon was filled with dirt, and Mekji knew that he had been deceived, so he ordered the pursuit, and wanted to take pity on those people.
Karl glanced back and saw that he was only more than a hundred meters away from the pursuers behind him, and he was about to catch up.
At this time, the people behind also began to release arrows, and suddenly a group of people fell off their horses with arrows, and the form was not optimistic.
Mekji saw that the distance between the two sides had narrowed a lot, only a dozen meters away, and a smile appeared on his face.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves coming out of the side, and when he turned his head to look, he saw a group of cavalry rushing straight over, and the next second the two sides collided together, and Mekji also had black eyes and didn't know anything.
Karl and the others also stopped when they saw the people on both sides fighting, and many infantry also poured out from all sides, slowly surrounding the group of church knights in the middle.
O'Harden rode the dragon and led the griffin regiment to join the battle, and the dragon flew low and spewed a blazing flame, many people were directly charred, and some of them began to roll on the ground.
The battle was soon over, and ended with the retreat of some of the knights of the Church, where Mekji died, trampled to pulp by the horses.
Seeing a man in armor walking over, Carl also greeted him and asked, "Are you?"
"My name is Matthews, and I am the Governor of Jebeldan, and I received a letter from Surin to give me a chance to support you, and now I have finally taught a hard lesson to the dogs of the Church. Matthews said viciously.
Then Karl and seven or eight thousand others entered the city of Jebeldan to help defend the city.
When the news of Mekji's death reached Alva, it also caused a stir, after all, he was the commander of a million troops, and it would definitely affect morale even if he died like this.
When Urban learned about it, he immediately gave instructions to strictly block the news of Mekji's death, and at the same time select a new commander.
"If you want me to say just Const, he's grown up in the barracks since he was a child, just send him there. โ
"No, he's just a hairy boy, and it's hard to take on a big responsibility. โ
Seeing that the people below were noisy, Urban also slapped the table to silence everyone, glanced at everyone, and then looked at a young man in his twenties at the front, who was the Const everyone was discussing.
I also know something about this Const Urban, his family is also an important member of the church, and he doesn't deal with himself, he can't practice magic after birth, so he stays in the army, and he is usually very proud, and he heard that he has a little talent.
At this time, Urban already knew that the Belen family would definitely nominate him as the new commander, and it was useless to oppose himself, so he asked casually: "Const, do you have the confidence to take on this great responsibility?"
"Please rest assured, the Pope, I will live up to my trust. Const replied confidently.
"Okay, then I'll take Terry's fate, Cather."
Urban appointed several of his henchmen as generals and wielded real power in the troops.
There was no objection from either side of the people, and in the eyes of the Belรฉn family, as long as Const became the commander-in-chief, they would have to obey his command.
After the grain was put into the warehouse, Su Lin also strengthened the defense of the city gate and the warehouse, and arranged the open and dark posts, and watched so many war movies and spy movies in his previous life, this common sense is still there.
In the evening of this day, Su Lin came to the city wall again, looking at the six or seven meters of the city wall, his heart couldn't help but comfort a lot, this is the key to whether Muga can put himself to death and survive, that is, whether he can prevent the enemy's crazy attack.
Fortunately, there is no need to worry about food now, and as long as you hold on longer, the greater the hope of victory.
Now that Hoto's siege of the Banhard area is complete, the real battle is coming.
In the evening, Surin gathered all the core personnel together to discuss the next battle plan.
