Chapter 241: Fortified City

"Caterina will not surrender, there is no need to wait any longer and let the legions attack the city. This is the only way, we must take the city before winter comes!"

Lord Deguel said indignantly. They have been through so much, and now, the soldiers are coming to the city, but they can't enter the city, and push the bloody queen off the throne, and everyone has more or less complaints in their hearts. Seven years of waiting, one step away from overthrowing the tyrant. It's like a hunter chasing his prey for years, and now, the target is on the other side, and he can't get it. And the city of Kislev is the river that stands between the hunter and the prey.

It's just that the more you get to this point, the more cautious you have to be. There is not a huge disparity between the strength of the enemy and the enemy, and Rhodes knows that Caterina is only on the defensive, but this does not mean that she is weaker than herself. The allied forces in the north are fighting all the way south, and their current strength is only two-thirds of what they were when they set out, and the supply of food and grass cannot be compared with that of a year ago. Caterina only needs to be consumed, and the first to collapse must be the northern army. At the same time, the shooting corps was still guarding the city walls, which was a force to be reckoned with.

"You know, the walls of Kislev are the strongest in the north of the entire Old World, and they are built and designed according to the strength of the Chaos Invasion, and the thickness and height of the walls are unmatched by ordinary walls. Two hundred years ago, millions of Chaos armies invaded, but they failed to conquer this wall, let alone our current army. Unless you think our artillery is more powerful than the Chaos Dwarves forged Hellcannon. ”

Rod replied.

"Maybe there will be. ”

Chief Dwarven Engineer Wadrin chimed in. However, his confident words were ignored by everyone present. No one answered his words and continued the conversation. Indeed, the repeating cannon has been improved by him, and its power and accuracy have increased a lot. However, this is still a far cry from the Chaos Hell Cannons in history. Legend has it that the Chaos Hell Cannon can raze half a city with a single shot...... Of course, a hundred years have passed, and no one has seen that thing again.

"There is a risk in the assault, and it is a huge risk. The number of dead and wounded soldiers will increase dramatically, and if the first day is not taken, the morale of the soldiers will be hit. If we don't capture it on the second day, our soldiers will lose confidence, and if we don't capture it on the third day, we may face the danger of being counterattacked. You know, at the moment, we are not in an absolute advantage. ”

Rod analyzed.

"So, let me do it. ”

Dennis said suddenly. She wasn't supposed to be here, but because the Frost Witch was in Kislev all year round, she knew the city very well, and she knew the Ice Hermitage and the Academy of Magic very well, and Rhodes had her daughter attend all military meetings so that she could give advice at a critical moment.

"Prince Pavel has prepared an army of rebels, right in the city, behind this wall. ”

Dennis stood up and said in a crisp voice. The charisma of leadership exuded by it is not to be underestimated. Rhodes knew that over the years, his daughter had learned not only magic but also leadership in Kislev. According to Dennis's own account, later at the Academy of Magic, she became the object of worship of many witch apprentices. Her words still carry a little weight among witches. Rod could only sigh on the sidelines that it was not himself who taught his daughter to behave in the world, but his own enemy and opponent......

"We can join forces with the troops in the city, and as long as the rebel army can help us open the gates, the army from the north can quickly storm the city. The Marksmen are good at defending, and once the city is broken, their threat will be greatly reduced. ”

"If there really is such a force, why haven't we heard anything about it so far?"

Norsca Captain Celta asked. Let's go slightly

"How could you possibly know about such a confidential matter, Captain, if even you had heard of it, Prince Pavel was already lying under the sword of the Ice Queen. ”

Dennis's answer left Celta speechless, and in front of the little girl, he suddenly felt that his IQ was not enough......

"Princess Dennis, I don't have much to do with you, and I don't know much about you, but you have a way to get in touch with this underground army, and, if I'm right, are you sure to convince them to cooperate with us?"

Lord Edmund asked politely.

After Edmund finished speaking, Dennis nodded calmly. And Rhodes stood in front of her-

"Dennis, my daughter, you managed to escape from it, and I will never allow you to venture into it again!"

"It's not me who goes in, I have someone who can help me achieve this. ”

Dennis smiled and pushed his father's arm away. She was so confident that the little girl who was locked up in the magic academy in the past and the girl who stood in the barracks headquarters today were almost like two people.

"Who?"

Rod asked.

"A man who escorted me out of the city, although I don't know who he was, but I knew that I had to go into the city quietly and contact Prince Pavel, and only he had the means. ”

Dennis explained. The skeptical expressions on the faces of the other lords could be seen. But this will not have much impact on the overall situation, so the other lords also turn a blind eye. After all, everyone is happy if they succeed, and if they fail, they are just losing a stalker. As for the danger of exposing the underground army, the others didn't expect the Confederate army to exist in the city in the first place. Don't expect that transparent prince to make a difference.

"You're out of town, and Pavel will trust you?"

Rod asked tentatively.

"He will. I've known him for five years, and I'm sure he won't distrust me because I didn't say goodbye. I'll write a letter and tell him why. Believe that the prince is not that kind of person. ”

Dennis frowned and whispered. All kinds of demeanor, words and deeds gave Rod a general understanding of his daughter's feelings. It seems that this prince of Kislev still has some weight in the heart of his daughter Dennis. Although I don't know what happened to Pavel and his daughter in the magic academy in Kislev City over the years, it is certain that Pavel has a lot of trust in his daughter Dennis. Moreover, this trust is not the trust of the alliance of interests in a short period of time, but is cultivated over a long period of time. Rhodes wanted to know more, but now was not the time, and the big war was imminent. Daughter Dennis's kind of private matter can only be asked slowly in the future.
