In just half a day, the blood-stained square and castle hall had been cleaned, and by the time the flying snow fell to the ground, there was no trace of blood left on the ground, and the sacred Twin Towers Fortress had regained its former solemnity, and the Flaming Goshawk Banner had never landed on its top.

Except this time, there is an extra Blood Cross battle flag next to it. And among the warriors guarding it, there were a thousand more tribal warriors of the Vast Lands - it was a joke, for the fortress had been built from the day it was built to defend itself against the collective counter-attacks of the barbarians of the Vast Lands, but now these tribal warriors were more qualified than many Turines, patrolling the walls and watchtowers.

Of the 1,000 defenders of the fortress, only more than 300 surrendered to Edward, and the rest were all killed. Despite the surprise attack and overwhelming superiority in numbers, these rebels still inflicted considerable casualties on the Battleflag Legion - apparently, the defenders here were all Berion's cronies, and they were all elite, otherwise they would not have been sent to defend the Twin Towers.

And they are worthy of Berion's trust, and they have indeed held on to the end, surrendering only to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, and they have already achieved their loyalty to the Lord.

By the afternoon, the blizzard had finally stopped, and the main force of the Banner Legion, which had not appeared for a long time, had finally arrived at the Twin Towers - both Repin and Marco Tasker knew that if the 2,000 cavalry in the vanguard did not take the fortress immediately, even if the legion was filled in immediately, there would be no real change.

And it is simply unimaginable what would happen to a pure infantry legion if it marched in a blizzard without cavalry as a leader - the loss was only a trivial matter, and once it got lost, it would lead the entire legion into a situation from which it could never recover!

The Legion is Lord Edward Witwood's greatest asset. Both of them understand this. So it was decided to protect the legion first. Leave hope to the cavalry led by Allen - even so, many soldiers along the way got frostbitten, or broke away from the group, and disappeared into the blizzard.

But at least they made a clear choice, and the entire legion quickly took control of the entire Twin Towers, controlling all the towers and gates - a little smaller than the Twin Towers Fortress, but quite large. Even an entire legion could fit it all, and it was even a little crowded.

The most important thing is that they brought not only the legions, but also most of the baggage - food, salaries, weapons and various consumables, especially arrows and ignition agents, and a dozen or so heavy ballistas, all of which were dismantled into parts and transported to the Twin Towers Fortress, and now the temporary barracks were almost emptied except for the three centurians recruited in the Green River Valley!

Now, even if the other party finds out that something is wrong in the barracks, there is no way to do anything about the Battleflag Legion - with plenty of baggage and a strong fortress, even if it faces more enemies. The soldiers were also confident that they could hold on. Even if the western wall is relatively low, it can be an advantage if it is well prepared.

After confirming that Edward was intact. Everyone from Marco Tasker to Goodwin Jr. breathed a sigh of relief - it was clear to everyone that the entire legion was almost entirely tied to this guy alone, and that as long as Edward was alive, they would have a reason to continue fighting, or the entire legion would collapse immediately.

In addition to Allen, Marco Tasker, Goodwin Jr., Angela, Ludwig, Donner, and Lebinus, Virgil is barely half, and Iska and Shirell can only be considered allies in more sense, although the mercenary does have a relationship with him that is a little too "close".

But when they sat in the hall of the castle and listened to what Edward had to say, even the most calm of Lebinus, who was usually the most calm, could no longer maintain his composure at this moment.

The nobles of Turin in Hantu City are planning to rebel en masse and support Berion as the heir to the kingdom - this is not unbelievable, it is simply crazy!

inducing a rebellion, intending to kill His Royal Highness the Prince, and even the current Hantu riot is absolutely inseparable from him, and it is even very likely that he induced it. Any of these messages broke the Legion officers sitting in their seats.

Even among the monarchs of the past dynasties, although there were rebellions to inherit the kingdom, but to the level of madness of this Lord Berion, it was the first, almost gambling on the glory of the entire kingdom for three hundred years, and if something went wrong, Turin would be torn apart!

It is important to know that the control of Hantu City is not only about the desolate highlands of Hantu - from here to the east, and the green river valley is connected to the south, and the kingdom has relied on this land for three hundred years to maintain indirect influence on the east and south, keeping them under the constant deterrence of royal power.

At the risk of the entire Hantu City being invaded, he deliberately suffered a crushing defeat to the barbarians on the battlefield, and even lost a large area of territory to the other side - all in order to regain the dominance of the Hantu City!

And now, His Royal Highness Anson is likely to still be under the control of these people, if the little prince is not rescued as soon as possible, the entire legion will be saddled with the name of rebellion - the other party controls Hantu City, and Hantu City is the only place in the entire Hantu that can be related to Turin City, and their speed of delivering news is definitely faster than Edward's.

At the thought of this, Rebinus felt like his head was about to explode. Sitting on either side of the long table was no better than he was, with a serious expression or a nervous expression - only Donner, the captain of the guard, could remain motionless to this point, for he knew nothing about any of these things.

"What are you going to do?" After being silent for a while, little Goodwin finally asked, seeing that everyone was silent, "Are we going to go to war with Hantu City?"

"Absolutely not, once the war starts we will become rebels. Edward shook his head: "What's more important is that His Highness Anson is still in their hands, as long as this restriction is not lifted, we will still be passive." ”

"I think it's the same with them - since they haven't assassinated His Highness yet, it means that they are also concerned about that fate, or that they would prefer us to take that responsibility. Edward asserted: "Since they also have some scruples, it means that there are still flaws, or their Achilles' heel!"

Even if this group of rebels is so mad that they put Anson under house arrest, they will never dare to hurt the little prince, but must protect this prince at all times - even if Berion does become the ruler of the entire kingdom, killing his nephew will still be a very ugly stain.

"Until we found out, we didn't move. Now that the Twin Towers Fortress is ours, the choice of the problem has been left to them, and it will be up to them to play their cards - if they want to destroy us, they must risk being discovered, and if they choose to remain silent, the entire Turin will force them to make a decision!"

Edward looked at these people in the room - the decisions he had made in the past were only about himself, but now they were tied to the lives and futures of thousands of people, and caution was no longer something that had to be done, but something that had to be done.

The silver-haired wizard who sat in Edward's nearest position fell into a silent silence at this moment - now that the situation in Hantu City was out of his control, the other party was obviously smart enough to block the entire city at the first time, and there was no news from it.

"So, it's all about the whereabouts of Green Turn. Marco Tasker muttered to himself, "As long as he's alive, this battle will still have a turning point - as long as he's there, we'll still be able to fight the rebellion in Hamtu without blood, or ......"

You can only start a war with the entire Hantu City!(To be continued.) )
