As the setting sun shone down on the streets of Chetsum, Jabbar sat on the ramparts, looking at the avenue that led straight to the town square, and suddenly felt an indescribable pain in his heart. Raphael, the elf girl she thinks about day and night, hasn't seen her for half a year, I don't know if she has suffered in the hot spring castle, I don't know what she has become now, although the orc uncle also knows that elves can maintain the appearance of youth and sunshine for thousands of years, but Jabbar still prefers to think about it sensationally, just like in all movies.

"Woo, woo, woo. ”

Just as Abdul-Jabbar was immersed in the thought of Raphael, a loud horn sounded from the south of the city, and it didn't sound like an orc horn, but it was? Apparently, human reinforcements from Telertham two months ago have arrived in Chetham.

"Whew, whew. ”

Jabbar walked through a bridge hole, and then jumped off the city wall, looking in the direction of the crowd's cheers, on the Eagle Banner Avenue, sure enough, you can see a group of human soldiers dressed in gorgeous armor and holding huge oak shields, in the sunset, the warriors' silver-white armor reflects the dazzling light, and the pure blue cloak hangs down behind them, obviously, these are the human elite soldiers from the imperial capital, Tarence was right at the beginning, as long as they follow the regent Rowan, they are the strongest warriors in the Tysham Kingdom.

"Welcome, welcome. ”

Facing the Knights of the Kingdom Holy Hand, Tarence could no longer find more appropriate words to express his feelings at the moment, so he could only hug the head of the Knights tightly, at this moment, Rowan's five thousand human warriors not only brought combat strength to Chetham City, but also brought hope. Jabbar could even observe the joy and smiles of the inhabitants of Chetsum upon the arrival of the Knights. It's like a farmer waiting for the autumn harvest, warm and full of anticipation.

"Leo, come, let me introduce you, this is my new comrade-in-arms a few days ago, Abdul-Jabbar. ”

The Knights walked through the Municipal Square to the castle lounge in the main city of Chetsum, and as soon as they entered the castle barracks, Tarence was eager to introduce Jabbar to the head of the Knights, Leo.

"Orc, you say he's your friend?"

Seeing the orcs appear in the human castle, and still carrying weapons, the head of the knights, Leo, habitually became vigilant, if it wasn't for Tarrens to greet him in advance, I'm afraid Leo's long sword would have been on Abdul-Jabbar's neck at this moment. Humans and orcs are incompatible, which is almost the consensus of all southern humans, so when Jabbar first came to the southern human territory, he almost ran into walls everywhere.

"Yes, yes, don't get me wrong, Leo, you won't know until you sit down and talk about it from beginning to end. I had the same reaction as you did when I first met Abdul-Jabbar, but as I listened to his story, I realized that he actually had a better soul than any of us. ”

Tarence explained in due course, and Leo, as the head of the Knights, slowly sat down with suspicion.

Yes, the clothes are handsome, don't you just mix in the army for a few more years, if the old * son joined the army at your age, I don't know how many levels higher the military rank is than you.

Seeing the proud demeanor of the human knights, Abdul-Jabbar couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, alas, he was born badly in his previous life, and when he arrived here, his birth background was still not good. But if you weren't your parents, even if you people worked hard all your life, you wouldn't be civilians?

"So, you fled here because you were chased and killed by your own tribe?"

After listening to Tarrens's explanation, Leo turned his head and asked Abdul-Jabbar on the other side, and his attitude was much more sincere than before.

"Well, he is a very brutal chieftain, in the tribe, as long as he says, no one dares not to do it, if any orc who is loyal to the faith of freedom dares to say a word, he will be slaughtered immediately, or locked up and beaten violently, sometimes even implicating the whole family. I'm one of them, but the reason I'm being hunted is a little more complicated. ”

Seeing that the knight in front of him was much more sincere, Jabbar slowly understood the other party, and sat in the chair and explained helplessly.

"Oh, I'm ashamed of my offense, please accept my apology. ”

After listening to Abdul-Jabbar's words, the head of the knight in front of him suddenly replied with a standard knightly etiquette, and his words were full of humility.

"Well, it's okay, it's a trivial matter. ”

After all, he is a highly educated person, and his quality seems to be good. Seeing the actions of the head of the knights in front of him, Abdul-Jabbar suddenly sighed again, Gao Shuai and Fu can't actually be beaten to death with a stick, there are also high-quality, humble, and daring to take responsibility, the world is like this, no matter where it is, there are always individual differences.

"Alright, let's talk about what to do next. ”

Seeing that the misunderstanding between Abdul-Jabbar and Leo had been cleared up, Tarence began to shift the conversation to the current situation, which was now everyone's top concern.

"When I entered the city just now, I saw that there were still a large number of refugees in Chessem, why not evacuate the refugees to the south, which is surrounded on three sides, but the south gate is accessible, isn't it safer to evacuate the refugees to all parts of the south? ”

Entering the subject, Leo quickly expressed his opinion, in the eyes of the Knights, the protection of civilians is always the highest rule of action.

"I've tried to evacuate the residents of Chessem, but it's only refugees from the north, and most of the residents of Chessem are reluctant to leave, saying it's their homeland and that some of them have lived in the city for decades and don't want to leave at all. Moreover, the civilians had too much hope for me, and they believed that I could defend the city. But you know, there are at least 100,000 orcs outside the city, but there are less than 10,000 soldiers defending in the city, and even if you add these 5,000 warriors, there are still only more than 10,000 people. ”

In the face of Leo's question, Tarence gave his own answer, but this answer was quite helpless. As for why Leo brought five thousand warriors instead of five thousand knights, Jabbar later learned that in fact, in the kingdom of Telletum, knights have extremely high glory, and if you want to become a knight, you need too many harsh requirements. And once he becomes a real knight, he often has several or even a dozen attendants by his side, these attendants will help the knight do some housework or chores on weekdays, and go with the knight in wartime, so there are actually only about 500 knights among the 5,000 soldiers brought by Leo, and the rest are all squires, although their equipment is also good. But the gap in combat effectiveness is still very large.
