Chapter 455: Breaking the City

Led by the guards, the cavalryman was brought over.

"Your Highness, urgent military situation. ”

The wounded cavalryman took out a scroll from his bosom and handed it over.

The Third Highness unfolded the scroll and looked at it, and his whole face suddenly changed.

As soon as everyone around saw the face of the Third Highness, everyone immediately realized that the situation was not good.

"What happened to Your Highness?"

"Look at it. The Third Highness handed the scroll in his hand to the general beside him, and then without waiting for others to ask, he took the initiative to speak: "Three days ago, the Crabbe family, the Ideal family, the Wenduk family, and the three major families betrayed the kingdom, they not only gave up the border guards, but also took the 30,000 troops of the Lya country, and gathered the 70,000 horses of their own family, a total of 100,000 people to besiege the royal city. ”

"What!"

"What a guts!"

"Damn, these guys really damn it. ”

"Your Highness, how is the royal city now?"

"Your Highness, let's go back to support the royal city. ”

Everyone panicked, and they would never have thought that these three major families would actually betray the kingdom and attack the royal city with the army of the enemy country.

In the Fire Leaf Country, in addition to the royal family, there are also nine nobles, these nine nobles have a pivotal position and strong strength in the kingdom, and it is they and the royal family that constitute the Fire Leaf Country.

Their interests are consistent with the Fire Leaf Country, and in terms of blood, they are also inextricably linked with the royal family, whoever betrays the kingdom, they should not betray the kingdom, and the problem lies precisely in the three of the big nobles, they actually betrayed the kingdom, and in the most critical battle, they stabbed them in the back.

Intramuros is arguably the most important city in a country. Once the royal city is broken, the consequences are serious, can be imagined.

The Third Highness's whole face turned pale at the thought of the consequences of this incident.

The faces of everyone around them were ugly, because they also knew that the situation was dangerous.

The reels don't just explain how things happened. It was also a distress letter to them, and the date of writing the letter was already two days ago.

No one knows what happened to Wangcheng now.

The matter is already imminent, and there is simply no way to afford delay.

His Royal Highness immediately issued an order, and the whole army was ready to return to the royal city, the infantry was too slow, and they would go slower, in order to rescue the royal city. can only let the cavalry go first, although it is more dangerous to let the cavalry go first, but in order to rescue Wang Cheng at this time, there is nothing to care about.

After these orders were issued, His Royal Highness looked at Gao Feng and said sincerely, "Count Gao Feng." ”

Gao Feng waved his hand lightly and said, "Your Highness doesn't need to say much, just let me go back with you." It's also a bit of a do, and the rest of the things. More on that later. ”

His Royal Highness didn't expect Gao Feng to speak so well at this time, and hurriedly nodded gratefully.

Selling favors at critical moments is more precious than any other time, and it is not appropriate to say anything at this time, waiting for yourself to make achievements. They don't have to open their mouths, they will obediently take the benefits, on the contrary, if they can't do anything, or the royal city has been destroyed by the other party. Then, no matter how many conditions there are, it is useless.

On this point, Gao Feng still sees it very clearly.

Everyone immediately took action, and Gao Feng also prepared to go, now that the royal city was under siege, the inhabitants of the town, if they went in the direction of the royal city, it seemed inappropriate, and they had to change the direction of their advance and move towards the rest of the place.

These things have been arranged by Gao Feng, and in order to make Gao Feng feel at ease, His Royal Highness also sent a team of soldiers to participate in the escort of the residents of the town, so that Gao Feng can be more at ease, and it can be regarded as buying Gao Feng's heart.

From here to the royal city, it is to take the nearest road, to say the least there are seven or eight hundred miles, the movement of the army, it is not an easy thing, even if they are all cavalry, it took two days to rush to the vicinity of the royal city.

At this time, the situation in the royal city was already very bad, 100,000 horses besieged the royal city, and it had been fought for three days and three nights, while the regular army of the guard army of the royal city was only 10,000 horses, and the rest of the regular army had been taken away by the three highnesses before.

This was the time when Wang Cheng was at his weakest.

Fortunately, after all, Wangcheng is the largest city in the Fire Leaf Country, with a large population and many nobles, so there are naturally many soldiers, in addition to the regular army of 10,000 people, 20,000 soldiers have also been gathered from the nobles' homes, and the army formed by civilians has also gathered 20,000 people, so that the soldiers defending the city have reached 50,000, which can barely be regarded as holding the royal city.

However, the situation of the war has always been not optimistic, after all, among the 50,000 people, there are only 10,000 regular troops, and the rest of the manpower is not very useful.

Moreover, there are many masters among the attacking enemy legions, which makes the pressure on the protection of the royal city very huge.

If it weren't for the fact that there were many preparations in the royal city, all kinds of materials were very complete, and there were many masters, the royal city would have been breached long ago.

But even so, Wang Cheng's situation is very bad, if he doesn't come to reinforcements, Wang Cheng will definitely not be able to hold out for a few days.

In the barracks outside the city, the patriarchs of the three major families were silently watching the battle on the city wall, watching their soldiers continue to die and fall from the city wall.

The siege battles in the past few days have all been carried out by the three major families, and the army of the Lya country has not yet been dispatched.

At this moment, a general from the Sharp Tooth Country walked in with a smile on his face.

"My lords, I have good news for you. ”

Everyone turned their heads and said with a smile: "It's General Gurus, what good news have you brought us?"

General Gurus smiled and said: "I just received the news from the city, our people in the city are about to destroy the barrier and the city gate, once the barrier is gone, the city gate is broken, will it be difficult to occupy the royal city?"

As soon as everyone heard the news, they immediately asked excitedly, "General Gurus, is your news reliable?"

"Of course it's reliable. General Gurus said confidently.

"It's not that I don't believe you, but we all know the protection situation in the royal city, the center of the enchantment is in the palace, and the guards in the palace are extremely strict, they really have the ability to enter the palace and destroy the enchantment?"

"And the city gate should be well guarded, they have the ability to break the city gate?"

In the face of doubts, General Gurus was not angry and laughed: "What several adults said is right, and what they said is also the truth, but what I said is also the truth, and several adults should also understand a truth, no matter how strong the fortress is, there are loopholes, and our people have long seized those loopholes, they have been taking advantage of our siege in the past few days, they are making preparations, and now the preparations have been completed, and it is time to harvest." ”

"I also know that several adults still have concerns, but a few adults are a little calm, because the show is about to start, I came to tell a few adults to prepare for the siege, once the enchantment news, when the city gate is broken, it is the time for several adults to launch a general attack, as for the news I said, whether it is true or not, several adults can know the result immediately. ”

Although they were skeptical, they were clearly convinced.

Then someone asked, "By the way, do we need to make any preparations? Do we want to mobilize soldiers to prepare for a general attack?"

General Gurus hurriedly shook his hand and said: "No, don't, you know, our every move now is under their noses, don't do superfluous actions to arouse suspicion in the city, a few adults only need to have the consciousness to launch a general attack." ”

"That's fine, General Gurus, I think we all know it. ”

"Of course, I have no doubt about that. General Gurus said with a smile, but in his heart, he sneered.

These idiots really believe that their Lieya Congress will help them build a new kingdom, how is it possible, these idiots who are blinded by the desire for profit, you just wait to go to hell.

However, I have to say that if we really have to thank these idiots who are blinded by profit, if they were not blinded by profit, their country would not be able to win this war easily.

For the good of the country, let's make these idiots happy for a while.

Thinking of these things, General Gurus's smile became more gentle, and there was a faint hint of humility.

General Gurus's attitude undoubtedly made several people very satisfied, and the heartache in their hearts because of the death of their own soldiers also disappeared at this time, and they all thought about how much benefit their family could gain after the city was broken.

I can't imagine how much wealth there is in the royal city.

Think of the rich families, think of the noble families, think of the treasures in the royal palaces.

The thought that these good things would soon belong to their own family made everyone happy, and their hearts were even more excited.

When the mood of these people was better, the mood of the many soldiers on the city wall was not very good.

Around the huge royal city, there is a giant barrier, this barrier is not as powerful as the barrier of the peak territory, it is a single magical barrier that does not defend against magic attacks, but it does not defend against physical attacks and the entry of objects.

Tens of thousands of warriors battled around the barrier, and the soldiers of the royal city hid within the barrier to fight.

With the help of the protective effect of the enchantment, the walls of the royal city are full of mages, and these mages continue to cast attack magic, and the soldiers who attack the royal city suffer heavy losses under the attacks of these magics.

There are also mages among the rebels, but because of the existence of the barrier, the rebel magicians have no use at all, and can only hide behind the army, blessing the attacking army with magic, and cannot launch an attack on the enemy on the city wall.

Because all their attacks will be blocked by enchantments. (To be continued......)
